C. Nelson. We passed the gauntlet of waiting patients, and after some wait in due time had the opportunity of meeting the busy doctor, who courteously and obligingly showed us through his wellappointed and up-to-date offices and explained to us the various machinery which he has installed for the convenience and treatment of his patients, in striking forge American Medical FELLOWSHIP CERTIFICATION This is to Certify that our office is of the American Medical annual dues for the year de- titled to all the privileges of Mr. R.

Be it known that this body contains in its ranks all the finest medical talent of the country. The doctor is also a member of the Los Angeles County Medical Association and the California State Medical Association, which is affiliated with the American Medical Association. It is also identified with the Physicians, Dentists and Pharmaceutical Association of Southern California, and the National Association, two organizations exclusively for members of the organization. A Corner of the Doctor's X-Ray Room, Asst., Mrs. Cl The story of the progress which Dr. Nelson has made since hanging out his shingles here is marvelous, and one outstanding feature of his upward climb is that he is thoroughly progressed. He puts every ounce of energy into his work, and to this we attribute his success as a physician and surgeon. Delving in and wringing out information for a story the best we could, we gleaned that while the Doctor is not strong or keen for operations in surgery, and believes in the The Califurnia Lagie same only as a last resort, his success along this line has been marked. He has operated in all of the leading host pitals of the city, having had as many as six major operations at one time in formal hospital. Cases ranging from formal hospital to stomach to removal of appendices, etc. The Doctor is an operating partner of the celebrated local Surgeon, Chas W. Bryson, at present Dean of the Medical University of Southern California. One of Doctor Nelson's recent successful cases which excited widespread favorable comment from members of this and allied professions was witnessed after 45 minutes of suspended respiration after a difficult forceps delivery at the French hospital. Every doctor and nurse present who witnessed the difficult case endeavored to dissuade the Rural Association CERTIFICATE MD. is a fellow in good standing.

But the Doctor was not to be disdained and at the expiration of 45 minutes of heroic effort during which time he appeared to use every agency known to medical science and was rewarded at the end of that time by a feeble cry. The child is still alive and is today doing well, and Dr. Nelson has the eternal gratitude of the mother." The Doctor we are told, whenever he goes to the French hospital is always met by the Superinfantile who never fails to comment on the remarkable case. And indeed do we feel that such remarkable accomplishments should be heralded to the world.

Exterior View of the Doctor's Offices Fore MUSICAL ASSOGIATION SCORES TRIUMPH On last Monday evening at Blanchard Hall the musical talent of this city gave to the public a practical demonstration of their capacity to entertain even to the satisfaction of the most exacting critic. It was the occasion of the first public recital fostered by the Progressive Musical Association of this city, an organization which has dedicated its resources to empowered themselves together to produce in this section the very best. in their line of effort and to encourage all of the people and more especially the young folk along high class musical effort. The president of the organization is Elmer Bartlett; Vice President. John A. Gray; Corresponding Secretary, Miss Hazel Gottschalk; Recording Secretary, M. M. Rosemond; Treasurer, W. T. Wilkins. The following program was rendered Thcs L. Johnson with Miss Fanny Wiley accompanist, with three selection roles. I have leaves on his starlary bore, Mr. Johnson is a stellar bore, singing voice, and wonderfully good the great audience. Miss Manilla Wowens rendered three pleasing plano selection which were in keeping with her well known ability as a pianist, her execution, touch and harmony was superb, as she played the difficult "Shadow Dance," by McDalmel, and Melodies Op. 3. No 3 by Rochmaninoff. Herbert Atwell Rose, violinist, in a masterly manner played three numbers; this youthful genius by his practice worth has won his way into the hearts of the people. He reeled out and had to respond to an encore. His accomplished accompanist was Miss Fanny Wilson. Miss Mandetta Rosemond with Miss Lucie Blanton as her accompanist, rendered four selections. Miss Rosemond has a clear, sort, and mellow voice, and the varied numbers permitted her to demonstrate from every angle her ability as a wonderful soprano. At this juncture Mr. N. D. Thompson was introduced and expressed his appreciation for the great work of the Progressive Musical Association and in turn introduced Mrs. J. B. Bass, managing editor of this paper, who praised their efforts and urged strong support by the people of this community. And then the Dramatic League put on numbers which demonstrated the all around ability of Webb King and Beulah Hall as actors of marked ability and magnitude. Part two by the League closed with a musical comedy skit with the cognomen "A Week End" by Webb King and Jimmy Smith feature. The Civil War tale, composed of Pollock, Ashton, Hill and King. The act was a scream and browzit unearious applause. And to put on a silken and even finish as it were, this great and appreciative program was closed right and properly with, what proved the sensation of the evening. "The Allegro Sextette" Mrs. Laura Butler as directress, rendering "Mississippi Moonlight," by Lee Roberts and "Elu-Sextette," by Debbie Blankenship. The Sextette was composed of Zora Wan Fannie Wilson, Lucile Blanton, Emma Myles, Froline Wilkins and Irene Banks, and was indeed the super feature of the evening. CHARACTER THE BASIS OF RACIAL SOLIDARITY CHARACTER THE BASIS OF RACIAL SOLIDARITY Or Why the Race Fails to Obtain Unity in Action Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen: The word Character comes from a Greek word which means to cut into and His Stutz Roadster in the ground. furrows to engrave, and throughout its wide scope it retains its root and significance. Perhaps 'the most signal way in which its meaning may be brought home to our intelligence is by setting it opposite to another word oftener than to the incorrect appreciation of its true meaning. I refer to the word reputation. As so the other word in the subject of my address—Solidarity—we owe it to the French Communists and it means an entire union and consolidation of interests and responsibilities. It seems to me that we, very few of us, appreciate the value of a mutual understanding of words we use and much of our knowledge of one another, is directly tracable to that fact. In the final analysis, the important thing, is the thought we wish to express, and the words we use are but instruments to that end. So, as a different language would make a mutual understanding impossible, a wrong conception, just as well, as a total misunderstanding or signification of the words we use, is fatal to such an understanding. I have very often heard men debating a matter, with very little hope of agreement, when at the bottom the difficulty was owing to a diversity of interpretation of what we have come to regard as words of common curency, which we have not same meaning to all of us. I have made these observations because I wish to declare that when I speak of Character, I mean that quality or those qualities in a man or woman that do not alter, that are unchangeable, that are constant, that every circumstance and condition which it is possible to conceive. Now, as distinguished from Character—the qualities which a man or woman actually possesses whether those qualities are known to the rest of us or not—reputation is imputed qualities one’s estimated Character. These are usually a man’s experience with past of us that a man’s character is sometimes thought to be of the worst Character or vice versa that to many persons are imputed qualities good or bad which they do not in actual fact possess. I say regrettably for it is the cause of much subsequent sorrow of heart due to the wrong done or the wrong suffered by the person. There is really very little excuse for it. We may be patient enough and charitable enough to remain neutral unless compelled to take sides when the worst implication of caution could not fairly be regarded, as, but incidental to the exercise of a legitimate right of discretion. While the practice of the worst implication of caution another on insufficient or no testimony at all, it will continue to be the source of our disappointment in persons, when they turn out to be something different from what we were lead to think of them, sometimes something better, sometimes something worse. When these disappointments are more than the unfavorable experience seems to arise a general suspicion: want of confidence, and this want of confidence in each other: militant sentiment that unity which is essential to success is OOR O RACE JOURNAL IN THE WEST through these introductory *Temarks* grasped the fundamental thought of my mind at this moment, it will be comparatively easy for me to build a super-structure of beneficial understanding, and of lasting advantage. At the invitation of my friend Mr. Coleman, whose friendship is an honor which I value and whose rightful purposes are well known to me, I am with you this evening, and well do I appreciate the opportunity afforded me to accomplish in the time at my disposal, and as far as I am able to do so, of support of my mind and women, of my prejudice and fairly judge both myself, themselves, and the conditions amidst which we live. I say myself apologetically; for while I have lived in this city for eleven years, I am comparatively unknown to the large majority of those to whom I now speak. No one regrets that more than myself, and I am glad if I permit me to think so—that here is a place in the world where I acquaintance in the future. I say yourselves because it is our duty to judge ourselves, for as the great Apostle has said, "if we judge ourselves, we would not be judged," and lastly to judge the conditions amidst which we live, to understand them, to sense them, to correctly interpret them, has become in my opinion a need of the greatest urgency. And I wish further to say that we should therefore at this moment your good will, the year possess your minds of all all will, if it exists towards either myself or, the subject of my address, and give me your un-prejudiced attention if only, for this occasion. All knowledge is power. It was said of the Savior, who Bad no power of any kind, Financial or Social or Political, that his word was with power; never man spake as this man. That is a very supreme kind of power; the power of the spoken word, not the power of the spoken in these days of sheer materialism; the power of brutal. But the power of His word, was due to the completeness of His knowledge. That is parenthetically a manifest paradox if, not altogether impossible—complete knowledge and no money—to the Apostle of material success. His mind perceived from the beginning to the end of all things. The power of the success far from it. I merely claim the right to say that to such a one as our Lord, the temporary expediency of money appeared coarse and raw. But to proceed with the first thought, ignorance on the other hand is death, annihilation, extinction. There is a wise Eastern proverb that runs somewhat like this. He who knows and knows not that he knows, asleep, awaken him, he that knows not, who does not, he that knows not, is a fool, shun him, and to that I would like to add a Fourth side which my experience has taught me to be deserving of the most generous, the most kindly, Torbearance and Charity, and that is for the man who does not know, and is willing to admit it. So inestimable is the value of knowing that there is the highest kind of merit in knowing our own limitations. It is indeed an excellent starting place; begin to know someone this kind, this kind of itself, imposes upon none of us, a greater obligation than to know thoroughly and well whatever we do know to know deepl yand completely, rather than expansive yand indifferently. How often have we heard persons who have neglected to master the doing of some little, thing, who pass by the chance to learn the way lamenting the want of opportunity to do some great thing. Is the time when we want to do it if that to do it. We may by frank this cussion, by deep thoughtfulness, by judicious judgment, by self analysis trace out the place where this battle of individual, and racial survival is to be fought out and won? In the twenty years I have lived in the United States, I have seen the Negro gradually loose out, in the good feeling o this white neighbors. Now the loss o this sympathy of any man or body of men, would be in itself of n occurrence if in the process, we acquire something better. On the contrary it would be a distinct advantage to have him, if he is not a man who still maintains the better thing. Any may we not be permitted to hope that there is something far more desirable for a race than exotic sympathy, and generosity even if voucafed in generous measure? Where else, under what conditions of analogy, do you find a people relying upon such a thing? But it is eloquent of the state of racial stagnation, and obligation, that its loss has precipitated the race into a place of evident friendlessness, and isolation. Idd now want to work to be an alarmist, or a pessimist, and I disclai the remotest allation with the specie; but I do crave an opportunity to speak what I believe to be the absolute and exact truth. No better testimony could be desired of the perilous position in which the race daily stands than firstly its evident need of the sympathy of the whites' then its hopeless outlook, when that support is for any reason whatever withdrawn or dimmed. We must therefore be able to phase the necessity of broadening and deepening the consciousness of racial power. I am compelled to postulate these conditions, even at the peril of allaying my sympathy at the end of allaying my sympathy. I could The diminution of esteem, of good will and neighborliness has a reason that lies more closely to our personal and individual characters. To put the matter frankly, and without further equivocation or evasion it would seem to be pretty generally substantiated that colored men, as a rule may sometimes have brought to their fellow men to be such and such a manner of man. But Character, good character that combination of qualities of head, of heart, of mind, of soul, of spirit, of morals, of feelings, which defy any and all conditions of opportunity, of occasion, of privilege, of advantage, of chance to tarnish, to smear, by one jot, or little, to swerve, from the plummet of absolute righteousness—almost never, know you are going to speak for you, to speak under a compelling sense of unavoidable obligation—to do absolute and, exact justice to all men, and to all interests, and since I rise to speak at all, I am without the power to say anything else. I do not know how for the words I speak this afternoon will carry probably not outside the confines of this hall, but not trust myself to speak extempore on such a matter. I want it understood that these words will be liberate judgment. Here at once is the place where cause and cure meet in beautiful conjunction to explain the, to guide the future. For my part I confess to some surprise that the spoken word of final mind has been so long in coming. Apart from the probabilities of the plans of Divine Providence—which may well be decisive, nothing but a willingness to play hide and seek with a proposition obtrusice in its implicit, could account for this continued obscurity. The duty of one people in the power to speak aside with lotty disdain and scorn, but with every resource of mind, and spirit consecrated to that end. To fail in that is to leave our humanity, in question, and after all is said, there is really no one else in dunt bound to affirm it. Reynold Blight will address the M. A. A. C.

NUMBER 40 CONCLUDING CHAPTERS OF EDITORS GREAT "ON THE WING" TRIP We have told of this wonderful country before, and the more we lock over it the greater possibilities we can see for an opportunity to become real producers. We visited all sections of this great ranch, and with Mr. Simmons, Macbeth and Littlejohn explored the innermost recesses of this great property. Since this time American Negroes have become the owners of this collisional property and we verify believe that the movement is the entering wedge to the greatest forward step ever made by the Rac; it puts them in line to become the super producers from the soil of the great Pacific slope. However we were on our way and after a stay of 10 hours on the property we again headed for America. After an uneventful journey of about five hours we arrived at Tia Juana. After sight-seeing at this famous resort we crossed the line, and after a short rest at San Diego resumed our trip by auto to Los Angeles. The return engagement of Mr. Simmons at this point was a remarkable oak, and he made a another great address to a packed house at the Hamilton church. On the following night the Progressive Business League put on a most pretentious reception for Mr. Simmons by giving an elaborate banquet, while On Monday we left for Kaisersfield, at which place the N. A. A. C. P. had arranged for a monster meeting at the High School Auditorium. The remarkable feature about this meeting was that the members simply taxed themselves and charged absolutely no admission, and the vast Bakersfield local N. A. A. C. This meeting was a great success. Leaving Bakersfield at 2:15 a. m., we arrived at Oakland Tuesday. The committee here were shaking in their boots, fearful of the success of their meeting. This was caused by the fact that the street car strike was in full blast. However their fears were baseless, for they had not reckoned that it was Roscoe Conkling Simmons coming to town. He is the peoples' man; speaks their language; they will go over mountains and ford springs to hear him. Oakland certainly gave the colored people a mighty send-off. Here we were informed of some local petty jealousies among leaders and would be leaders, but with all that to contend with, Oakland came through; the people of Oakland are all right; they refuse to become contaminated with the virus of confusion and despair and are on their way. For a diversion we journeyed to Vallejo; it was an off night; no his meeting was most thoroughly enjoyed by the people of Vallejo and Mr. Simmons, he was at home with his people. The fact that arrangements had not been properly made were given way to the pleasure of giving this small community a rare treat. An untoward incident happened in San Francisco which disturbed us much and marred the pleasure of what was supposed to be a heart-to-heart meeting with Mr. Simmons. Next week we will conclude our article "On The Wing" by giving the closing days of our remarkable trip which ended at Seattle, Wash., on Oct. 16th. HEAR MINNIE M.

As this was Rally Day, this sermon gave us a stronger determination to go "over the top." At 2 o'clock Rev.

It was Choir Day and the Choir rendered excellent service. One of the most inspiring scenes ever witnessed in Los Angeles was the consecration of the Juvenile Choir composed of forty, or more boys and beautiful girls. The pastor's sermons morning and night were very helpful and inspiring. There was one addition to the heuret. The Sacred Concert by the Choir in the afternoon was of a high or Jer. The solos by Messrs. Rollins and Jordan and the singing by the Wesley Chapel Quartet, composed of Messrs. Howard and Albright, and Minos. Williamson and Hubbs, were especially pleasing features.

Including those joining Thursday night, there were 8 additions to the membership of the church with one-convert. Our church choir and the Celestial choir furnished excellent music under direction of Prof. Elmer Bartlett our organist and choir master. PEOPLE'S IND. CHURCH OF CHRIST— Rev. N. P. Greggs, Pastor. The Sunday School was well attended; everyone seemed greatly interested in the work. The pastor's sermon for the morning was the third series of the text, Philippians 3-10. "The Fellowship of Christ's Sufferers." The first series was, "That I may know Christ"; the second, "The Power of His Insurrection." This text was beautifully illustrated by our pastor. He earnestly implored his congregation to have a personal knowledge of Jesus Christ. This message will long be remembered. An inspiring duet was rendered by Mesdames King and Graham, "They Nailed Him to the Cross." In the afternoon the Choir, pastor and congregation worshipped with Mt. Olive Zion Church of Boyle Heights. Rev Greggs delivered the sermon. A collection was taken amounting to $60. In the evening the gospel message was delivered by Bro. Emanual Hall. One accession was recorded for the day. Total collection. $103.44: members on sick list, Bro. A. J. Jones, Mrs. Rosa Werden, Mrs. Atchison, Mrs. Anthony and Mr. Thomas. On Nov. 19, 20 and 21 there will be held in this church a grand Liberty Fair for the benefit of Thanksgiving Rally. All are welcome. BEAUMONT, TEXAS Dear Editor Of "Eagle." Allow space in your columns for a little report from us. Rev. E. R. Driver, D. D. of Los Angeles has spent a few days with us. His coming to us was a God send. He has stirred the city with his powerful messages, our large church was packed at each service. Truly the Lord has appointed this man to preach the Gospel. Dr. Driver is not only a Gospel preacher but a fearless leader for his people, after preaching a week and many souls saved therefrom, a committee of Elders with our pastor called on Dr. Driver by request of the citizens Welfare Committee of Beaumont to deliver an address to the people of our city, on the "Exodus of our people" and they appointed Monday night Nov. 2nd, the committee invited the mayor, City Attorney with other leading business men of the white race and all the leading forces of our race, the house was filled to overflowing, by 7:30 Dr. Driver was introduced by the president of the Welfare Committee at 8 o'clock sharp. Beginning his message the Dr. rehearsed the story of Ancient civilization. The rise and fall of Egypt, Greece and of Rome, after proving his efficiency on this the Dr. turned to this our great religious government and for two hours the Dr. held his audience spell bound. During the Dr.'s discourse a white gentleman asked him how did he look upon the conditions in Texas compared with conditions in other states where his people live. Dr. Driver said my kind sr. I am not at all pleased with conditions now, and comparing Texas with other states, must say that I hold that there are only two saes and both are "conditions" namely "Bad condition, and Bad condition" now if you can see any difference show it to me, now I see said the inquirer. Dr. Driver proceeded to inform all that Texas was "America" and that the Negro is an American and that it would take the same legislation to wipe America from Texas as it would to wipe America from Texas or texas from America. In closing he turned to his white hearers and said, my dear Sirs, my brothers and countrymen hear me tonight. Texas is our home and it is called the Lone Star state and among the many nations that go to make the state stand second to none we come next to you, we are here with you and you are with us, we are here together, we are going to stay here together and when God calls us away are going some of us, to Heaven together and some of us to Hell together except we all repent. It was a great address and at the case of the same the Dr. receive THE WEEKLY NEWS 1115—1117 East 106 FIRE! F Have your proper FIRE INSURANCE Not a luxu: y. "Do it now".

Girls Rev. J. H. Eldridge has good news concerning the progress being made by or girls in other cities. One of the most interesting bits of news is the success of the Penny Savings Bank in Richmond Va. run by a girl named Miss L. Walker President. We notice in our Western district here a "Oil Station" which is owned by a girl, this is a paying business requiring a very little capital and any ambitious girl would be successful undertaking it, you can learn oil analysis etc., by attending night school. For the Atheletic girl who likes to walk on these cool, snappy mornings we can offer four very good propositions in soliciting advertising, you can gain much experience which will lead to a lucrative vocation if you begin now, the editors of the various publications are willing to assist any girl who is interested. Dr. Ballard has certainly furnished us history of which we are very proud, Lieut. Leonard Stovall another military physician who saw service over seas has promised some very interesting articles, also Lieut. Eugene Lucas of the 68th. Inft. has promised to give us some bits of history. These articles will be compiled and published in the History which Dr. Du Bots is publishing. There were about 20 race women in the honor seats reserved for women at Exposition park Armistice Day, when the city of Los Angeles paid tribute to her returned heroes and the women who rendered loyal service during the war. We would like to have seen more of our soldiers in the section reserved for service men Tuesday at Exposition park; all of them who came were treated with courtesy. The Eighth Illinois Regiment reached the Argone on the evening of the 5th of July, 1918, and immediately took up their positions awaiting the attack of the Germans. The civilians in the villages for a radius of about ten miles had been ordered to flee for safety. Old men, women and children were seen packing their household goods and belongings, some on wagons and wheelbarrows and others carrying what they could on their backs, leaving the rest behind, trusting the allies-soldiers to hold the lines and save their towns from the plundering Hun. On the 9th the enemy opened up with a heavy artillery fire on our positions, continuing at irregular periods for four days. It was here we lost our first man—Private Robert Lee of Co. E—killed outright. After awaiting the attack which was supposed to follow the artillery barrage, it was decided that the 1st Battalion should attack the enemy's position themselves. A preliminary raid, resulting in the capture of several German prisoners, developed the fact that the enemy had given up the idea of attack in this region, transferred their reserves to a sector in the north and left only a few to hold the lines in this sector. The 1st Battalion under command of Major Rufus Stokes took over this area without any trouble, practically no resistance being offered by the enemy and our losses being almost nil. It was commonly consented among the soldiers of the 8th Illinois that they would not have time to bother with German prisoners or would they allow themselves to be taken prisoner—so they sailed into the enemy with the determination that when they met the best man would live. After reaching their objective no further advance was allowed, less the danger of being caught in a pocket. These were the trying times for the soldier—men do not mind going over the top and advancing in the fact of the enemy if they must, but to have to stand guard in cold, muddy trenches day and night is discouraging to the soldier. He wants action. Time hangs heavy on his hands and his hardships and sacrifices seem useless and even unnecessary from his viewpoint, especially if he realizes that he could advance further with little effort. He is impatient and wants to finish the job and have it over with. This is the place for the exaction of the great military virtue known as discipline—doing as ordered without the season why. The men in higher command, with their clearer perspective, see the battle ground as a whole, see the dangers and the traps set by the enemy that are not apparent to the man at the front. General Mittlechauser. Highly commended Stokes' Battalion on their effective work with such small losses, and the generalship of the officers. After ten days the 1st Battalion was sent back to the position of reserve and the 2nd Battalion under Major Hunt was sent up to hold the lines, the 3rd Battalion under Major Arthur Willms being in support. Thus the Battalions were alternated in the front lines till sang. 16 when the Regiment was sent to rest in villages around the city of Bar-le-duc. Col. F. A. Dennison in the meantime had become so ill that he had to be sent to the hospital and Col. T. A. Roberts sent from General Pershing's staff to take his place. Col. Dennison had suffered with rheumatism before leaving the states, being sick in quarters on several occasions and under the cold and exposure in France he broke down completely. His loss was a great shock to the Regiment, as the 8th took pride in the fact that every man in the unit was colored from Colonel down to private, and it was doubtful if General Headquarters would appoint a colored man to take his place. But the 8th was a well organized machine. determined to carve its name in the World's War under any leadership whatsoever. However, much is to be said in praise of Col. Roberts; he saved his men as much as possible—he saw to it personally that they were provided for as far as possible, going often among them in the front line trenches to be sure that everything was all right. assuring them and encouraging them. He served his men and his men served him. By one stroke of the pen he could have removed every colored officer from the Regiment and replaced them with white as was done with the 15th New York and the 372d, as it was the policy in the 93rd division to have all white or all colored. However, he kept the unit in tact as he found it and added only one white officer to assist him, replacing all vacancies, as they occurred with qualified colored officers. On Sept. 1st the Regiment left for the Soissen sector to continue the drive started by the Americans at Chateau-Thierry. Captain John H Patton, formerly Regimental adjutant was given command of the 2nd Battalion and Lieut. Col. Otis Duncan took command of the 3rd Battalion in the place of Major Williams who had been bounded by a hand grenade. On the 15th of Sept. the 2nd and 3rd Battalions were sent to the trenches in the front of Mont-des-Singes (Monkey Mountain) with the 1st Battalion under Major Stokes in support. This was an exceptionally strong point and several French regiments had been wiped out attempting to wrest the mountain from the Germans. On the 16th the attack began in spite of a heavy downpour of rain. The hill was gained but we were driven off by heavy artillery fire—the shells completely destroying the trenches and breastworks. The Rigiment lost quite a few men in this engagement and the enemy no less. Wounded poured in at the aid station day and night, both our soldiers and Germans. On the 20th the attack was renewed—the unit being supported by the 325th French infantry and good artillery; this time not to be driven back. Among the many deeds of heroism, special mention should be made of Sergt. Mathew Jenkins of Co. F. who commanding a platoon captured a section of the enemy's works and turning their guns on them held the position for 36 hours without food or water until assistance came. For this act he was awarded both the Croix de Guerre and the American Distinguished Service Cross. (To be continued next week) WANTED! WANTED!!

Fritz Kreisler is using "Bandana Sketches," a set of Negro spirituals arranged for the violin b/ Clarence Cameron White. On all programs that these numbers are used, the audience receives them with enthusiasm. The attention that is being give the Negro at present by the world's greatest artists establishes its position in the musical world and places it on a par with any music in the world. The success of the American Syndicated Orchestra, which is in our city at present, shows what can be done in music from a racial standpoint. This group of men is doing wonderful things in paying the way for the future development of our race artists. They are establishing also fine musical appreciation of the music of the Race by presenting the best works from the pens of our composers. But principally they are spreading a propaganda more potent and effective than that of the Hun, in breaking down the bars of prejudice and Race hatred, and building up a kindlier feeling between the two races. Thus is the power of music again, demonstrated and its intrinsic worth set forth in deeds that prove its value. It is with pleasure and gratification that we note the increasing interest in music for music's sake by our Race citizens. This is noticed principally i the number of racemen who are seen attending the Symphony concerts and recitals. In no other way can a fine appreciation of the art be developed than through the continued hearing of the best renditions by the world's greatest artists.

C. A. SPEAR Managing Editor J. B. BASS Editor THE PEOPLE SPOKE. Just as the Eagle predicted, whenever the people have a chance to express themselves they will speak in no uncertain tones against the League of Notions. And now it seems that the white folks have extended their efforts at lynching black people and gone to lynching one another. Well it has been prophesied that this very thing would happen. And right now we are lining up for the 1920 campaign and any sacrifice that we are called on to make we shall gladly do so, in order that the shades and shadows of the democratic party shall vanish forever. The one big effort along business lines is the proposed proposition to acquire an ice cream factory and ice plant; the opportunity is at hand and the test is about to be applied, if the race fails in this effort we will indeed be demonstrating the fact that we are not yet qualified along business lines. Some day Oh yes some day, the people will wake up to the fact that the biggest deal ever put over by Colored people in the entire Western country, was the one, whereby the Lower California and Mexican development Company acquired the Santa Clara properties in Lower California. In putting this deal over, they have made great thing possible for the future advancement of the race, especially so along the lines of production, ARKANSAS JUSTICE. If Arkansas really and truly stood for law order and justice, the administration of the same as exemplified in the rapid manner in which she dispensed justice to 46 or more defenseless black men, would be a compliment but everybody knows that those trials were a farce and that justice in Arkansas is color blind, they know that the cases tried were a mockery on justice, a shame and disgrace, on civilization; for which, some day the state of razor back hogs and knock kneed mules will pay the penalty as sure as there is a God in Heaven. Thus far with but a feeble effort the Colored citizens of California and surrounding territory have very nobly came forward in the great drive for the Roosevelt memorial, and now that the time has been extended, it is to be hoped that every church, organization and individual will be represented in this effort. The only reason that the Governor elect of Kentucky was elected by such an overwhelming vote was because it was known that he was against the League of Nations. In Oklahoma homa it was a clear cut issue and on the platform opposing the League of Nations, the republican candidate was elected in a democratic stronghold. So in keeping with our prophesy, if they ever let the people get a whack at the thing they will snow it under so deep that it will be buried forever more along with the president and his democratic cohorts. True it is that many dead ducks tried to swing on to the League of Nations issue to get back into the lime light, but they picked a bad bet for the people are dead against the thing. I have just passed thru California. I paused awhile to meet some friends, but decided while there to never do anything but pause. remember the next place below is Oklahoma. The last place to get off. They have the meanest Jim Grow system I have yet met. The old bourborn spirit reigns unmolested. Lines of demarcation are plainly marked. Cross them if you please - and "Heaven or Hell" will surely greet you. A great 'foot-ball game was on that afternoon in a suburban village. Being a lover of the sport I decided to go. Stopping a passer-by to be directed he replied "That's a bad place for darkies, you will like it better here." I did not question his advice. A big burly Conductor got mad with one Colored gentleman and invited him to walk, not desiring his nickle back he rode on. The white brother proceeded to show his relationship to Jack Dempsey and when the final whistle blew one cancasion said "good evening God." The riot spirit filled the air. Threats filled the air all day. Threats were made, but old Ham began to sing "I got a gun, you got a gun, all God's children got a gun." They have had no riot to this hour. It is amazing how chilly cold steel can make one. An invitation to visit the graveyard I find will help to make peaceful citizens. In spite of these things there are some progressive spirits in Oklahoma, some splendid Colored communities. Oklahoma is a rich state. My prayers shall ascend in it's behalf. May God love it and keep it. Robeson will visit Oklahoma again, but he'll just pause. The movement inaugurated by Douglass Temple, is indeed a forward step, and no man can gainsay the great incentive it will be to even the unthoughtful along religious lines. One thing certain it is apparent to all that the religion practised by the followers of Dr. Shields has its virtues indeed as wel as in spirit.

WATSON Now listen, folks, this is "in-side info," so don't say a word about it. It's all about the much heralded Country Club, and this is how it all happened: Last Saturday night, the Progressive Business League rooms, perzackly 20 dried-in the wool athletically inclined held a loving bee, and before they fondly kissed each other good night, they had formed the most gigantic Country club corporation to be found west of the Alleghanies. The name of this athlete manufacturing plant is the Suburban Tennis Club. Now this is all the dope we care to disgorge at this time; if you want to be counted among the regulars, meet the gang at the same station Saturday night. Nov. 15th—atta boy! City Champion Wendell Gladden is unconsciously kicking up a lotta un-usual disturbance among the local fans and fiends. The big query is: can the Southern California champion, Ballinger Kemp, do his stuff against the pride of the Omega club, or will the Manual Arts lad annex another title at the Turkey Day tennis battle. There is a baker's dozen of other disturbers of the peace, who are hurling ominous claims at the county championship event, the Omega club's first effort. Among them are ex-Champion Eddie Harris, who still swings a mighty-paddle when in a pinch: Fat Raymond Matthews, who was right up on the heels of Gladden every minute in the Labor Day fuss; Huge Bill Clark, another West Sider worth watching; minute Phil Davis, who conquered Harris last July 16; Harbert Rainey and Hassel Davis of the Alliance club, Pasadena; Walter McNeal and Richard Winters of the Santa Monica club; Ray Isum, Joe Oliver, Elroy Lott, Rosco Broyles, Doc Jordan, Paul Williams, Ernest Bynum, Chester Williams, and a flock of other near champs, has-beens and never-wazzers, but they all have their hooks out, so watch 'em, boy! But say, the ladies will have to be reckoned with, too, you know; they say out West that Mrs. Wm. Allen and Mrs. Rosco Conklin Brown are being groomed up ready for first honors; and there is Mrs. Rosco Brayles, Mrs. Henry Young, Mrs. Soloman Wortz, Gilberta Turner, Fern Caldwell, Estelle Hatcher, Ivy Johnson, Florence Harris, Ethel Caution, Lottie Bolds and a whole batchelor's collection of other swell diamonds who wil parade around for official inspection before pulling hair for the new crown; look 'em over, dude: And the Raja Tennis Club, that peach of a new San Diego club may slim a dark horse in on you, too; so watch your step! Remember, all entries must be in one day before the tourney; the fee is 50c for each event; men's and women's singles, and mixed doubles; play begins at 10 a. m; sharp at Y. M. C. a. courts. 2334 Stephenson avenue. Take E. 7th street car; also playars are requested to wear tennis shoes. News remembers us that the girls of Boyle Heights are growing restless over the gross inactivity of the men's lab and threaten to bolt, but we would rather hear of their joining groups to make the strongest club in the city—give the boys a lift, girls. Wes Al Matthews, famous composer of "Tennis Blues," alias "I'm forever Serving Doubles," seems to be experiencing much troubles over the almost unbelievable prospect of the Suburban club being equipped with portable billiard and pool tables as suggested by the scribe, in order to make room for socials, etc., that's nothing, boy—the other day we were astounded to see a crowd of Ford trucks carting a brick building down the street.

Olive Baptist Church, Santa Barbara, Erected 1910. SANTA BARBARA PASTOR SETS PACE FOR NEW ILLUSTRATION The Rev. H. B. Thomas, who came to California less than fifteen years ago, has accomplished as much within the past ten years as the average man accomplishes in a lifetime. When he first landed at Santa Barbara Mt. Olivet Baptist church edifice was hardly a dream, but with the energy of a young man and the wisdom of a tried warrior, Rey. Thomas feeling that he had landed where the Almighty had designed for him, in the language of Booker T. Washington: "Let down his bucket where he was." However, he was not contented with one dip nor was he satisfied to dip only for himself. While he had come West to administer to the spiritual needs of his people; like every young man with a real vision, he soon saw that the economic side of Negro life in this new state was being neglected and unless something was done to relieve the situation he would soon be in such straits in his fight for exist- Mt.

However, realizing that his mission was that of a minister, Rev. Thomas, after reaching Santa Barbara, made the erection of the Mt. Olivet Baptist church his first duty. Now, while this church is not one of the largest in the state it is one of the most unique plans to be seen anywhere, and in design it was born in the brains of Mr. Thomas, who also enjoys the distinction of be- FREECTED 1916. ing a master builder. And while he is but a young man, and one after look CONCLUSION OF REV. R. N. HOLT'S VIVID DESCRIPTION ACROSS CONTINENT TO N. B. C. On Monday evening, when the sun had left her dark mantle on the gate of the morning; when the steamship broke the echoes in the lap of crested waves and the sea gulls swept beneath the statue of Liberty; like the dusty caravans from the God-favored land of Isis, we halted at the terminal station, Newark, N. J., laden with tidings from the proud citizenship of Los Angeles ad the Christian family of sunny California. We were met by a friendly committee through whom we found lodging, preparatory to the opening of the great Convention, the influence of which had stirred the world and brought clergymen, laymen ad statesmen from hamlets, villages and cities between the three oceans and the great guilt. On Wednesday morning, true to program, o rushing multitude died into the Armory, soaring capacity, twelve thousand; while usurers were from galleries over a sea of humanity, the band played the national anthem "My Country 'Ts of Time." ```markdown ``` M.

He knows no failure. In his case, stumbling blocks are truly stepping-stones to success. When he first came to Santa Barbara the housing conditions for colored people was bad; hence the shiftless and not the thrifty class was attracted to this section. The problem with which he was confronted made more than a casual impression upon the young preacher, and each day the thought tingled louder and louder in his mind, "Something must be done." Thought he, "If I am to build up a church I must have material from which to draw, and within a few days Santa Barbara had to its credit one of the most modern up-to-date apartment houses for colored people in the city; and again the handicraft of the young preacher heralded a new song to the tune of industry, and all Santa Barbara both white and colored, began to feel that a new prophet had come among them. The weary traveler who once meandered through Santa Barbara now find the Thomas Apartments a fit place at which to spend their honeymoon. So successful has been this young clergyman that he has attracted the attention of the great state of California and is employed as state inspector of public buildings, school houses, all public places in Santa Barbara, county.

Runvan; among other things, he said: ```markdown ``` He has in his employ a crew of men. And aside from these many duties being so successfully performed by Mr. Thomas, he has just, with Mr. Jones as parener, entered the real estate business through which medium h chopes to be of continued service to his people. And, not only has this rising young preacher been an inspiration to the people of his immediate community, but likewise to the religious and social faction with which he has been affiliated all over the state. For three successive terms he was moderator of the Western Baptist Association during which time he paid the Old Folk Home at Able out of debt. At present he is president of the Baptist State Convention which position he is filling with credit to himself and his denomination.
