ARTHURTON Pursuant to our policy to fix credit where credit belongs the Eagle, in its current issue, is pausing to sing with cordial satisfaction the praises of our Dr. Arthurton, young physician and surgeon, at present located at Oakland. Little over two years ago the doctor was invited to California. Reluctantly he gave up a good and lucrative practice to satisfy his invitation. Securing a reciprocity license from the State of California with little difficulty. Dr. Arthurton launched a practice in Los Angeles with none the less vigor and geniality as he did in Chicago, and it was not long before he had a capacity following. Cramped in his efforts to do surgery in accordance with his ability, not being allowed to use the operating rooms in the various hospitals in Los Angeles, as was his custom in Chicago and at the repeated request of some of the people of Oakland, the doctor transferred his activities to Oakland. With the establishing of his practice began the growth of his business which has been steadily increasing day after day. In Oakland hospitals Dr. Arthurton is a man among men, well-liked and solicited. His practice is well mixed, besides doing a creditable, charitable business about Oakland. As a substantial circumstance of his progress, in less than six months after practicing in Oakland the doctor had not only purchased a comfortable, all weather, first class Paige Cabriolet Car, but had bought a "perfectly beautiful" home in Oakland's exclusive district. Accompanying this article are a few pictures including part of Dr. Arthurton's spacious offices, his home, and his regular attendants which include: His stenographer and first office assistant, Miss Esther L. Carey; Miss Leathe Walker, graduate nurse of Freedman's Hospital, Washington D. C.; Dr. Frank Grant, and Dr. Walter Dyett, assistant and anaesthetist. After all is said and done will hesitate to "hand it to him" for no one to our knowledge has done near so well, in one year, considering the obstacles the young doctor had to fight unjustly at the hands of those whom he, at all hazards, tried to dignify. All we have to wish him is success, the goal is in sight. It is rumored that soon the doctor will have his own Sanitorium. AFTER THE WAR. NEW YORK, Dec. 18.—Echoes of the Fortieth International Convention of the Young Men's Christian Associations of North America, recently held at Detroit, are still being heard as the thousands of delegates and visitors return to their homes. This gathering marked a fitting climax to the wonderful activities of the Associations throughout the world during the war, and of this the first year after the signing of the armistice. Some of the conclusions of broad- The California Lagie MAKING MARVELOUS PROGRESS IN OAKLAND est import arrived at by the Convention might be summed up as follows: The Association should be the rendezvous for the forces of righteousness in every community. It should be a moral tonic to the whole city. The Secretary should be the general of an army, not the director of a club or the keeper of an inn. The Association must put forth virile, aggressive force with which evil has to reckon. Lynching, race riots, bootlegging, illiteracy, vile housing conditions, disease-breeding centers, prostitution, child labor, Bolshevist propaganda and agitation, unjust race or class discrimination should all find in the Association an alert, trained and relentless foe. Among the features of the Convention inside from the many thrilling and instructive addresses delivered by Association officials and other noted men, were the exhibits showing in a striking way some of the achievements of the Y. M. C. A. workers at home and in foreign lands. One exhibit which attracted the lion's share of attention was a great pictorial chart in which every ninth picture was that of a colored man. This unique arrangement had reference to the per cent the colored people bear to the whole population of the United States. This was a Convention at --- DR.

R. H. Bowling of Norfolk, Va., was called upon and delivered the opening prayer. It was a meeting at which the colored man was present not merely as an onlooker but a welcome participant. Too often in some deliberating bodies, where the colored man's interest is at stake, the mistake has been made of fixing up something for the colored man and handing it over to him for execution. But this was not the case at this great International gathering, manned by stalwart Christian men, whose influence is permeating the world for good. Every delegate was at close attention when the great program of recommendations was under discussion for final adoption. There were eighty-seven colored delegates present, th largest number ever in attendance at an International Y. M. C. A. Convention. Among them were well educated, trained business and professional men, ministers and preachers of large experience. They manifest a keen interest in every recommutation submitted for recommendation. To every one of them the Convention represented a new beginning of the wonderful opportunities for self help and social service onw open to the Race through the channels of the Young Men's Christian Association. The Immediate Occupation of the The very first recommendation adopted was that in all cities with a population of 100,000 or more.

The aim being to arrange a program so as to make the service of the Association available in equipment and in non-equipped centers to every man and boy in the community. Other recommendations were adopted covering every possible present or fu- THE MUSEUM OF THE WORLD tur phase of Association work.

ARTHURTON'S HOME, 5211 LAWTON AVE., OAKLAND, CALIF. LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1919 DR. ARTHURTON'S OFFICE colored workers be made, that branches for colored men and boys be organized in the larger city centers, where support can be secured for them: that buildings or the community type of work, under able trained leadership, be secured for the smaller cities and that the remaining twenty-six student association possibilities be realized, and that particular attention be given to the organization of work for colored men and boys in the industries and in the rural districts. It was decided and earnestly urged that local Associations revise and enlarge their plans for boys' work so as to fully develop the opportunities in their respective fields, particularly with reference to high school boys, employed boys and the promotion of the Christian citizenship training program. That the state committees be urged to enlarge their work, and at the earliest possible date complete their district and county organizations by providing sufficient funds and adequate leadership so as to make available the various forms of boys' work in the unorganized communities. The International Committee was asked to give particular attention to the strengthening of the state committee personnel and work in order that the state committee through its closer contact with the field and by co-operation with the International committee may render its largest service to the local Association and to unoccupied communities. The International committee was also empowered immediately to establish a Bureau of Survey to make possible the thorough surveys of the field which are essential to any adequate program of expansion. No Race, Color or Creed Lines Drawn, Under the recommendation of Exent and Plan of Co.operation, the THE LEADING RACE JOURNAL IN THE WEST Convention says: "The field of the Young Men's Christian Association of the United States includes as in prewar times, the young manhood and boyhood of the Nation without respect to race, Color or creed. The Association, in carrying out its work of building Christian character, recognizes its responsibility through cooperation, the homes, churches, schools, business and industry and government agencies, as well as its own program of activities, to make sure that every young man and boy has an opportunity for all-round development in body, mind and spirit, and that he is induced to avail himself of these opportunities." Referring to the great war, the Convention reports assert that the troops engaged in East Africa were by no means so numerous as in most other fields, but there was a pathos in the suffering of ignorant African porters, in their perplexity and confusion which was unsurpassed. Members of the colored Associations here in America responded to the needs of these Africans, and seven American colored Secretaries were sent out to serve especially with the porters who were attached to the British forces. These men did yeoman service and brought both practical and Scriptural comfort to the sick and wounded on many occasions and in many ways. The colored delegates held several group meetings, which were attended by members of the Colored Men's Department Committee and the Associate General Secretary of the Committee, at which time they expressed themselves freely regarding the responsibility of colored leadership for the future development of the work. They were encouraged by officials present to go forward with their work with the assurance that every effort would be made to enable them to achieve results so greatly needed in the thickly populated sections of our country. Every man returned to his home with a new consciousness of his personal responsibility for the men and boys of the race and with encouragement and hope kindled anew for the possibility of reaching the coveted goal - that the service of this movement may quickly reach the colored men and boys of the country. It was Sir Isaac Newton we believe, who after giving to the World his knowledge of the laws of freely falling bodies, the laws of the inclined plane and the laws of Inertia, said: "I feel like a boy playing with the pebbles down by the ocean's brink while the great and unexplored ocean, the fathomless deep rocks before me." This is about the way we feel about our knowledge of the vast possibilities the Young Men's Christian Association affords our race for fruitful development, what we have is only an indication of what we may have in the future if we will only apply ourselves to the task of grasping and holding the opportunities now open to us. COLOR LINE IN LOT SALE UPHELD The State Supreme Court has sustained a move of the Los Angeles Investment Company to enforce restrictions against persons other than those of the Caucasian race occupying lots in which the sale deed contained such ban. The decision was filed yesterday. The investment company appealed from a judgment entered in the Superior Court on failure of the corporation to amend its complaint after a general demurrer had been sustained in favor of the defendants, Alfred Gary and wife. The complaint said Gary and his wife were of African descent. The higher court reversed the ruling of the Superior judge in sustaining the demurrer, and ruled that the complaint of the company did state a cause for action. The defendants did not submit briefs and the only question was on the sufficiency of the complaint made against them. The company's original complaint to enforce the conditions of sale, that the land revert to the original owner if others than Caucasians were allowed on it, cited that the restriction was designed to expire in 1980. NEGRO MUSIC ANALYZED "Slavery was the great sorrow of the Negro race, and religion its great refuge," says the quotation which Mrs. Jay Bush used to illustrate her talk on the Negro music, which is the real folk music of America, she explained at the Los Angeles City Teachers' Club last week. These melodies are the foundation on a new school of music, according to Mrs. Bush's prediction, "Swing low, Sweet Chariot," "Little David" and the humorous song, "Melindy," were among her songs on the orp-gram. CONFLICT OFFICIALLY KNOWN AS THE "WORLD WAR." The period of war from August 30, 1914, to November 1, 1918, will hereafter, be known officially as "The World War," according to official orders, handed down by the Secretary of War, which has reached Western Department headquarters of the army. Paragraph 1, General Orders, 115, War Department, reads as follows: "The war against the central powers in Europe, in which the United States has taken part, will hereafter be designated in all official communications and publication as 'The World War.'" PERTINENT FACTS AND FIGURES OF "THE WORLD'S WAR' About 4,000,000 men served in the Army of the United States during the war (April 6, 1917, to November 11, 1918). The total number of men serving in the armed forces of the country, including the Army, Navy, the Marine Corps, and the other services, amounted to 4,800,000. It was almost true that among each 100 American citizens 5 took up arms in defense of the country. During the Civil War 2,400,000 men served in the northern armies or in the Navy. In that struggle 19 in each 100 inhabitants of the Northern States served as soldiers or sailors. The American effort in the war with Germany may be compared with that of the Northern States in the Civil War by noting that in the present war we raised twice as many men in actual numbers, but that in proportion to the population we raised only half as many. At the time of the signing of the armistice the Signal Corps was operating 282 telephone exchanges and 133 complete telegraph stations. The telephone lines numbered 14,956, reaching 8,959 stations. More than 100,000 miles of wire had been strung. The peak load of operation reached was 47,555 telegrams a day, averaging 60 words each. Two out of every three American soldiers who reached France took part in battle. The number who reached France was 2,084,000, and of these 1,390,000 saw active service at the Front. Of the 42 divisions that reached France 29 took part in active combat service. Seven of them were Regular Army divisions, 11 were organized from the National Guard, and 11 were made up of National Army troops American divisions were in battle for 200 days and engaged in 13 major operations. From the middle of August until the end of the war the American divisions held during the greater part of the time a front longer than that held by the British. In October the American divisions held 101 miles of line, or 23 per cent of the entire western front. On the 1st of April the Germans had a superiority of $24,000 in life strength. Due to American arrivals the allied strength exceeded that of the Germans in June and was more THE PEOPLE'S FORUM FOR UPLIFT ALL MEN UP—NO MAN DOWN. NUMBER 45 than 600,000 above it in November. In the battle of St. Mihiel 550,000 Americans were engaged, as compared with about 100,000 on the Northern side in the Battle of Gettysburg. The artillery fired more than 1,000,000 shells in four hours, which is the most intense concentration of artillery fire recorded in history. The Neuse-Argonne battle lasted for 47 days, during which 1,200,000 American troops were engaged. The American battle losses of the war were 50,000 killed and 204,000 wounded. They are heavy when counted in terms of lives and suffering, but light when compared with the enormous price paid by the nations at whose sides we fought. The war cost the United States considerably more than $1,000,000 an hour for over two years. The direct cost was about $22,000,000 or nearly enough to pay the entire cost of running the United States Government from 1791 up to the outbreak of the European war. Our expenditures in this war were sufficient to have carried on the Revolutionary War continuously for more than 1,000 years at the rate of expenditure which that war actually involved. In addition to this huge expenditure nearly $10,000,000,000 have been loaned by the United States to the Allies. The Army expenditures have been over $14,000,000,000, or nearly two-thirds of our total war costs. During the first three months our war expenditures were at the rate of $2,000,000 per day. During the next year they averaged more than $22,000,000 a day. For the final 10 months of the period, from April, 1917 to April, 1919, the daily average was over $44,000,000. Although the Army expenditures are less than two-thirds of our total war costs, they are nearly equal to the value of all the gold produced in the whole world from the discovery of America up to the outbreak of the European war. The pay of the Army during the war cost more than the combined salaries of all the public-school principals and teachers in the United States for the five years from 1912 to 1916. The total war costs of all nations were about $186,000,000,000 of which the Allies and the United States spent two-thirds and the enemy one-third. The three nations spending the greatest amounts were Germany, Great Britain, and France, in that order. After them come the United States and Austria-Hungary, with substantially equal expenditures. The United States spent about one-eighth of the entire cost of the war, and something less than one-fifth of the expenditures of the allied side. In addition to this huge expenditure loans were advanced to the Allies at the rate of nearly half a million dollars an hour. Congress authorized for this purpose $10,000,000,000 and there was actually paid to various Governments the sum of $8,850,000,000. REV. J. H. WILSON Presiding Elder J. H. Wilson of the A. M.

ARNOLD TO THE FORERONT AS A BUSINESS FACTOR When it comes to putting over real business ventures, one cannot overlook the accomplishment of J. L. Arnold who conducts the COSMOPOLITAN CAFE, at 1013 Central Ave. For many years this particular place was the "jinx," the deadfall and grave yard as it were of all who ventured forth to do business at this particular place. Countless numbers have tried, even the Chinese and the Japanese, but failed. Along comes J. L. Arnold, the man who never hesitated to put grit and endurance combined with determination behind every effort he has made and from the word go he has made this Cafe one of the most pretentious in the City and a great big success. He employs something like sixteen persons and his place is one of action from "Morn until Morn," as he operates three shifts of employees and never closes. It is really worthy indeed of special mention to commend upon this great accomplishment of Mr. Arnold. With a vast experience for his years and hailing from Birmingham, Alabama, Mr. Arnold came to California several years ago and for some time he worked for the Llewellyn Iron Works, the Owl Drug Co., and at other places. He was restless and aspired to be in business for himself and after several trials on a smaller scale he finally took over the "jinx," at 1013 Central Avenue and has made of it a winner. With his motto of "Onward and Upward" he is progressive and encourages our people to enter into the various avenues of business to the end that they might take front rank in the mighty march of progress. THE MASTER SIDNEY P. DONES I want to thank the public for the liberal manner in which they have supported the Bookertee Investment Co., of which I am Secretary and Treasurer. It is gratifying indeed at this time to say our Company has at last won the confidence of the thinking people here in Los Angeles as well as the Country in general. As we enter our 10th year in the Real Estate and Investment Business, in this city our foreword is to do unto others as we would that they do unto us. We have tried to treat all business matters in a strictly business manner, yet we have tried to apply sympathy and patience in matters where people depended on us to handle business matters for them. To those who are yet skeptical in allowing colored men to handle financial matters where honesty and trust works hand in hand. I only have to say that we are in a position to handle Financial matters in a way for you that you will find at few other places. We are now agents for one of the largest Financial Associations in the city of Los Angeles, with more than $10,000.00 to loan on city property. We will loan you money to build. If your lot is clear, we will loan you money to pay off the present incumbrance or we will advance two-thirds the value of any property to assist you to buy for cash and give you the benefit of the bargain. If money will help you let us have a representative call and explain our NEGRO BUSINESS AND THE BUSINESS LEAGUE By F. I. Dorscy, Chairman Publicity Committee. The Chamber of Commerce, as it is known today, is organized to stimulate and build up business for the city it represents. Speaking of our city, how well it has succeeded in carrying out the purpose for which it was intended, constitutes an interesting story that space will not permit us to tell; but enough can be gleaned from it to fit this article, when we say every business that considers it worth while to be in business considers it worth while being a member of the Chamber of Commerce, and so it has become the adopted slogan of all business men of our race, that consider it worth while to be in business, consider it not only worth while but absolutely essential to be connected with the Progressive Business League, which is the Chamber of Commerce and Clearing House for Negro business enterprises. The time is not far distant, when this League will function Negro enterprises such as will evolutionize the idea that the Negro is only capable of handling a one-man business. If we are to make progress, as a race, if we are to receive our portion of the Economic and business success that is now flooding the country, if we are to place ourselves in a position to demand our portion of practical and not theoretical justice, we must unite our business forces for the common cause. As the Rev. Ransom stated in an address delivered here in our city a year or so ago. "The time has past when charity secures for any individual or any race of people, his or their rights. One must be in position to demand, and if necessary take in a lawful manner that which is his." By the strength of our business enterprises as a race, shall we rise or fall; therefore, we must unite and close ranks; pool our finances, and then, when we have one or two million dollars invested in corporated business, which is a small amount for 35,000 Negro population, we will have accomplished much toward solving the much mooted race problem. The Business League has enrolled over two hundred members to date. It represents 34 business enterprises, aggregating finactically in round numbers, $250,000.00. The Committee on Business and New Enterprises, of which Mr. Foster Driver is Chairman, has passed upon eight new lines and through its recommendations, the League has fostered three which represent an outlay of $13,000.00. Among other propositions being considered to make the League a success, is the creating of a fund to protect a member's business against robbery, by offering a liberal reward for the apprehension and conviction of the individual who com- mits the crime. The forming of a Loan Company to advance money to create new business and the perfecting a system that will encourage the race to patronize and support its own enterprises. Then there are the newspapers. We are attempting to prove to every Negro in business, that it pays to advertise, and that not until they secure space in the advertisement columns of our papers, can they be considered as conducting real business. A concern that does not advertise, receives little support. The League intends starting 1920 with a new zest. It has accomplished much, and much remains to be accomplished. It wishes its members and supporters a MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR. M. T. Laws, the irresistible hustler who is well known in this city, and who has been sojourning at Catalina for some months, has returned to the city, he came to stay during the dull season at Catalina. But since here has been offered and accepted his former position at the Santa Fe Depot. Mr. Laws was accompanied back by his family, he was, while at San Diego, Correspondent for the Eagles and made things hum. He is a property owner here and withal a useful and progressive citizen. THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE Los Angeles, yet a baby in point of years, in growth and commercial development, has made greater progress than any other city in the United States in so short a time, and to even the casual observer the Broadway Department Store, step by step, in growth and development has kept pace with the city, which it is proud to call its home. Few stores in the great metropolis where the very idea of department stores was first born are ahead of the Broadway in unique arrangement. It seems that the first aim of the management has been to make every Xmas season pleasanter than the previous ones. When you enter the Broadway from the Broadway entrance you are at once impressed with the spaciousness of the store. Floor walkers are everywhere tall, stately, and courteous; ready to direct you to each and every department, and there are many, since it is possible for you to secure anything from a doy collar to the most artistic Parisian gown that my lady's taste demands. Perhaps the reason why the Broadway ranks ahead of the average department store is due to the fact that the management has made a careful study of all classes and kinds, the most fastidious in taste may be satisfied at this cosmopolitan store, while those, whose incomes are small may also gratify their needs. Or what the Kiddies call "Toyland," this year, in spite of the high cost of things, is a hevy of pretty toys of the very newest and prettiest designs; take your children and let them see and appreciate while they may. Let them see old Santa, who its majestically on his throne. The Broadway is the only store in town that unveiled a bronze tablet in honor of the men sent to France to fight for Democracy; at this affair the store lived up to its policy of treating all the same. Now we say, may the Broadway retain this democratic spirit that has made it the great institution that it is, and may it always remain where it is, and what it is, to all of the people. M. The above is a most excellent likeness of Judge J. W. Summerfield, Justice of the Peace for Los Angeles County. The Judge, although occupying a most partisan office is a regular "sure enough" Republican, and one of the most popular men in the State, when he runs for office he is generally so far ahead of the rest of his competitors that they quit counting his votes to save time, for any time he starts he wins bigs. It is freely predicted that he will enter the race for District Attorney at the election in 1920. Mr Harry Roberts the subject of this sketch although young in years has demonstrated his worth along business lines and where others have hesitated, failed and turned back because things would go hard for them for a while, young Roberts bowed his head and went right ahead. Only a few short months ago after a disastrous visit to the Imperial Valley where he thought to better his condition, he returned to Los Angeles without a dim; he started in shining shoes with a vim, saved his money and finally an opportunity came for him to purchase the stand where he worked and with it a cigar stand And now he is the proud possessor of one of the neatest and most up-to-date Shining Parloss and Cigar Stands in the city, located right in the Center of the business district, W. Fifth St. Mr. Roberts came to Los Angeles a few years ago from Santa Fe, New Mexico. By his quiet steady habits he has made a host of friends who will be pleased to know of his remarkable success. His effort and success is a practical demonstration of what can be accomplished when the mind is made up to stop at nothing short of a complete success.

GRIFFIN, Vice President; 1400 FAST SEVENTEENTH STREET, (By Miss Ellen Consuelo Prowd) On the 5th of June there set sail the "Liverpool" for the shores of India. The vessel was full of passengers and everyone on board the ship was giving jokes and feeling happy. Little did they think of the great catastrophe that was so soon to overtake them. Suddenly a storm arose, the Captain ordered the port holes to be closed, but to no avail; then the next order was given to man the life boats and don the life belts. A very pathetic scene was that of a mother clinging to her infant. They descended in the life boats, then came the heavy clap of thunder and the peel of lightning which struck the "Liverpool;" she sprang a leak and in a little while went down. The mother along with other passengers prayed the whole night for deliverance, being tossed upon the billowos of the mighty deep. The early morn brought them safety, for a ship passing that way saw them and came to their rescue. After taking all the passengers aboard, the mother was found dead with the baby tied tight to her waist. She, realizing that her end was near tied her baby to her so the little one could be saved and then fell back and said, "Master I yield myself to Thee, take me O Lord, but preserve my child," and then came the grim reaper of death and took her soul to heaven, but the little one was left in the wide, wide world, to the mercy of strangers. Then came the important question as to who should adopt this child. All looked on anxiously awaiting a reply, when presently a sweet-faced elderly woman stepped forward and said, "I will sir. I will." The Captain seeing her poorly clad asked, "What have you to be able to take care of this child at your age?" She, bursting out in tears, replied, "If God so clothed the lilies of the fields, how much more will He not clothe this child and me?" At 628 North Bond street in the top room of a large old tenement building there lives this same old lady, with the little eight year old boy, whose name is Freddy. Little did she know that at the time of the catastrophe that he was injured, in this little squallor reigned poverty. A few boxes are all the chairs you can see. In a corner of the room on a bed made of boards from off the sides of boxes, there lay little Freddy, though a cripple, happy and contented with his miserable surroundings, because he has all that will make him happy in this life, and the life to come. The days were fast approaching Christmas time. There was just one care on the old lady's mind and that was new courage, he said to send ```markdown ``` LOS ANGELES. CALIFORNIA Santa Claus to Freddy: for sae had barely enough to keep them alive and warm, when it dawned on her that she could do something just for a few days to send Santa Claus to Freddy. But also! in this cold world there is no welcome for the aged: sae trudged from door to door trying to get work only to hear, "We are are wanting someone, but wou won't do—you are too old." Finally one dear christian lady gave her work to do, but it was too late after seeing Santa Claus that Christmas Eve, returning home she found the death angel had come to take little Freddy's soul to join that of his mother's to the place where the wicked cease from troubling and the weary are at rest. Mother dear, said the little cripple, "I am going to die -promise me you will do one thing for me." "What is it my son?" asked the old lady, her voice shaking with grief "Sing 'Abide with Me,'" replied the little fellow; and the old lady's voice rose above the rooms in the old tenement house singing: I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness: Where is death's sting? Where grave thy victory? I triumph still if thou abide with me "Oh," said the little laddy, "that is beautiful, I can die happy. But mother, one more request; when Santa Claus comes tonight tell him to take my little toys to some other poor child's house, that they might be happy, as I am gone to be with Jesus. Don't cry mother, don't cry, for little Freddy's sake, please dry your tears and smile, mother. Last Christmas we spent happily together, it is true Sauta Claus did not come, but tonight mother, won't he be disappointed when he does come to take Freddy has taken his flight? Kiss me, mother, now don't you cry." Falling back on his pillow he passed to be with the Master. The following morning told the gruesome tale not seeing the old lady stirring the neighbors went in and found both of them dead. The old lady died from grief; her all which brought sunshine to her home was taken away. God smiled in His mercy and drew back the curtains of heaven and allowed two of His saints to enter.

The affair was a grand success and Mr. Gentry and the members of the concern wish to thank the public for its initial showing in the form of attendance.

Renew your subscription today; then you will be sure to get a copy of the paper containing the article on Corp. Ben Boole, first colored soldier of Los Angeles to be killed. Dear Social Editress: Will you please explain through your columns how army officers' bars and insignias originated? Miss Morris. A. The army chevrons worn by officers were years ago used to designate first the householder, the man who had a roof. He brought a small number of followers. The headsmans of two or three houses came with a more respectable following. His corporal's chevron had two stripes; above him was the chief of the village or small district, representing many houses, and bringing a corresponding number of followers; three chevrons on his sleeve indicated that he was a man of authority over many roofs; he bore the title of sergeant. Lieutenants' and Captains' bars represented commands large enough to be enclosed within walks—that's, garrisons. The leaf worn by the Mayor and the Lieutenant Colonel indicated the man who commanded a great number of men, as many as might assemble under a great tree. The eagle, the insignia of the Colonel, stood for command of as many men as would come under the vision of the "Lord of the Air." The star, the symbol worn by the General, represented the height of power, so great that it could be represented only by a Heavenly body. Can a woman walk? I'll say she can! One has walked from Lincoln. Nab. to this city in five months. Can the "Y" girls walk? Walk against them, and you'll say they can. The following letters are some of the many replies received to Miss Lonesome's question: What have the young men to say to Miss Lonesome? A dinner at the "Y" for best answer. Dear Lonesome: We will admit that there are women very popular with women, who have no appeal to men; and also that there are women popular with men, whom other women despise. But dear Lonesome, it isn't looks, or character, or education, but the quality of the combination of these plus yourself that attracts There are countless women like yourself with looks, intelligence and character, but who have been cursed from birth with an overload of shyness and pride. This combination often gives an attitude of ice in difference, beneath which they carry warm sympathetic hearts and real affection. But since woman is one of many incidentals in the life of a man, he isn't going to take the trouble to explore frozen territory. A life of service for others will go a long way towards helping you forget your lonesomeness. Dear Miss Lonesome: In reply to your question inserted in last week's Eagle, "How to attract the attention of a young man." You are a lady with a good character, fair education and good looking. In trying to attract attention, wear attractive clothes; clothes that attract the person you like. And of all things, be natural and simple in your manner. Find out what the young man fancies then endeavor to please him while in his presence. If he fancies singing, sing for him. if instrumental numbers play for him and let your conservational topics be of interest. Do not try and imitate the other ladies, by using their words, but be your self in speaking and in action. For the real man of today, such as those who participated in our great World's war are looking for quiet ladles, and not those who devote their valuable moments to frivolity. in closing I will say Miss Lonesome I wish you the very best of success in gaining the attention of some young man. Sincerely VIOLA M. DIXON To Miss Lonesome: In answer to your question of last week. I will venture to say that there is such a thing as a wom- of woman, women like but few men believe in. Maybe you are self conscious and hard to get acquainted with. On the other hand women who have a great number of male admirers are despised by their own sex. If you are pure and good and love humanity, never once think that the right man will not come your way and when he comes he will be a real man. Until then dear Lonesome visit the Y. W. C. A. and forget all your cares with girls who have forgotten. E. L. S. While I did not attend the service to which the minister asked his congregation to bring newspapers instead of Bibles, vet I am sure he had a good motive. The daily news, paper comes more nearly being the American man's bible than the Holy writ itself. Then why not show the public the possibilities for constructive work by dailies; and point out to them the power for destructive work which lies in the hand of journalism. The public gets in its daily papers just what it demands. Jesus himself used startling methods and illustrations to put over the gospel. Shall a modern leader be condemned because he uses unique but safe and effective measures? Q. E. N.

Los Angeles is indeed fortunate in having at the head of its metropolitan police force a man of the Sterling worth and ability as Geo. K. Home, who is killing the time with high credit and success. Mr. Home enjoys a National Reputation as a police executive. During the time he has held this position the police department has improved most wonderfully, and truly the way of the transgresser is hard with the Los Angeles police force on their trail under the leadership of Chief Home. One of the salient features of Mr. Home's character is his interest in the people, and with him race, color nor creed cut no figure. He stands fairly and squarely for merit, and from this standpoint is Mr. Home's strong aptitude for giving results. Every policeman on his force receives from him a square deal, and the people who have grievances receive at his hands the consideration due them, and what more could be asked. We again pause to remark that Los Angeles is fortunate in having at the head of its police department Geo. K. Home. WILL MOUSER COME BACK. As the time approaches for another election, rumors continue to disturb our repose, and it is: will Mouser come back and carry off the honor in the race for Senator in the 29th Senatorial District next year? While we have not heard from Mr. Mouser, we might say that if he should decide to enter the race it will be an interest in session in this district, for Mouser is a campaigner from way back. His friends are legion and his attitude for a square deal for all the people has made him friends who are always at his command. WILL GIVE NEW YEAR'S BALL. Sterling Light. Lodge of the G. U. O. of O.

We find on these pages besides the live reading matter, advertisements from the most pretentious business firms of the city to the humblest all of them with good cheer and expressing the Greetings of the Season. They all show in a measure their keen appreciation for patronage received and a cordial invitation for continuance of the same. The Soaring Eagle also appreciates the fact that this recognition is given, it makes us feel that after all our efforts for the exploitation of the things worth while are not in vain, it demonstrates the fact that those who will dig in and make a real and bonafide effort to do things will always find a ready support. LOOKING BACKWARD. Standing today, as it were, on the threshold of a new era known as the Reconstruction period, the Nations of the Earth silently look backward with bowed heads and silently review many miles of devastated territory dotted here and there with graves of fallen heroes, who came up from all parts of the Earth to die on the battlefield of France for the cause of Democracy. Many believe that the Democracy they fought for was won when the war closed—But there are others who know that such is not the case. Especially those who believe in the Christ doctrine which rigidly sets forth the fact that Christ came to the earth to die for mankind, that all through his death, and suffering might be saved. With this doctrine as the basis of our Christion religion it is strange that so few even while we gaze with liquid eyes back into the depth from which we so recently came, realize that the condition that will bring "Peace on Earth, and good will towards all—after all is love practiced and not preached by those who themselves have not as yet learned to practice good fellowship for their fellowman. Christmas, if it means anything to us should be a stimulant for a better feeling of everyone towards his fellowman, regardless of his race, color, condition or from whence he came. In closing the old year, as a newspaper, more than thirty years of age, we can but say, that within the past ten year it has been our main object to establish a better sentiment among our people, and to at all times publish a journal that is fit to enter any home. And now we thank our many patrons for past courtesies and solicit your continued patronage. Without even a general announcement we are able to present this issue which is a silent witness of itself as to the success of our 1919 Holiday Number. We bespeak for the advertisers who have made this issue possible, your hearty support. Three grand openings of business concern on Central Avenue, last Monday evening is a gigantic step forward and angers well for the future of the race along mercantile lines. We refer to the opening of the Chicago Ice Cream and Ice Company; The Spikes Bros. and Carter Music Company and the Acme Buffalo Realty firm. As long as our men who aspire to the heights along busi- --- ```markdown ``` ness lines hold back and shirk responsibility, just so long will they fail lto make progress in that line of effort. Seator Hiram Johnson is preparing to launch his campaign for the presidency and has announced that he will carry his cause to the "People." We believe that in this determination he acts wisely indeed, for it is so seldom that the people even get a look in on the big things in political campaigns, the people can always be trusted and it looks to us like the Senator is the "People's Man." CHRISTMAS. Ever since the beginning of the "Christian Era" the birth of Christ has been celebrated with glee, good cheer and optimistic views of worldly conditions throughout the confines of the American Continent, the province of joy is ours for but a time ago we were horror-stricken at the blood-stained battles and our fondest hopes, our most earnest prayers were for those who were abroad fighting that "Freedom and Peace on earth" might be for all and not a few. On November 11, 1917, when the bells rang and the whistles blew, proclaiming to the world that, the beneficient Creator had responded to our prayers we heaved a sigh of relief that the burdens which war had been lifted and that we would approach the New Year with stronger hearts and more peaceful minds than we had the year previously. Standing today on the threshold of the beginning of a New Year, let us go about our way and our affairs with new determinations, new hopes, stimulated with a stronger desire than ever to serve God and help mankind in its ever struggling procession, to lift some fallen brother. DR. FRANK A PEARL SETTLES IN LOS ANGELES, CAL Like the Morning Star that shines out pre-eminently in the elements; comes that medical peer, Dr. Frank A. Pearl, recently of France, but originally from Kansas. Having completed his high school studies in the city schools of Butte, Montana, he went to Kansas and there completed his "Prep" course. Desiring to enter the medical profession the doctor then went to Howard University, from which school he graduated with high honors as a doctor of medicine and surgery. To gain practical experience in his profession, he went to Kansas City, Mo., where he for nearly two years was resident physician of the General Hospital of that city. Practiced several years in the state of Kansas, when he entered the medical corps of the A. E. F. Commissioned as a Lieutenant, he served in the Evacuation Hospital at Bruyeres, Triage Hospital at Millery, Field Hospital at Griscourt, and served with such diligence and professional magnitude with the French and American soldiers at the field hospital at Mayenne that he was promoted to Captain of the Medical Corps while overseas. Upon returning to America, he was assigned to the Base Hospitals of Camp Taylor and Camp Knox, Kentucky. Although a young man, his rich and varied experience eminently qualifies him as a physician and surgeon of the first rank. And his advent into our midst is another bright star to our consultation of capable and worthy disciples of materia medica, who are all doing so much in this section for the advancement of the profession. Coming here he was, on his enviable record, immediately permitted ao practice on reciprocal recognition. He has taken hold as a part and parcel of the community and entered into the life of the community and is already a member of the Los Angeles Celored Doctors' Association; also a member of the Progressive Business League.

Even (Hod) Filter and Ciccolti would have blushed to see Broady and Walter battle for honors. Up to the first of the seventh there was only one hit registered, which was made by the Officers. In the last half of the seventh Chief Homes representatives broke through Walter's defense and scored two runs, only to have the Broadway to come back and make three in the first half of the eighth. The Police knew that delay meant defeat, the last half found manager O. Flenny's pets out for blood. Each man went to bat with the one determination to do or die, when the third out was made the score stood 4 to 3 in favor of the Police. A Flenny relieved Broady in the box at the start of the ninth, and held Arthur Lett's hired hands to the three runs, retiring the side in nice style and ending the contest. DANNY FDWARDS WINS OVER MENDE Kid Mende the scrapping bantom weight, who was picked to take Edwards into camp, met his waterloo when he faced Danny last Tuesday night at Jack Doyle's swat palace. Danny defeated Mende without trouble and punished his man severely. When Edwards first stepped out in the first round and pushed Mende in the kisser with a straight left, he hung the Indian sign on the Kid and had very little trouble with him throughout the four rounds. Mende tried hard to get himself together, but the attempt proved futile. Danny met his opponent more than half way in anything that the latter attempted. Bill Clark, the heavy sticker on the Police nine, was as meek as a lamb with his willow. Walter had his numb ber, and made him look real foolish, when the two faced each other. Agnew (Praying) Scott, played right field and had two putouts to his credit, it wasn't his fault though. In field, ing the ball on both occasions he ran directly under the pill; realizing the danger it was in, and at the same time remembering that they only had one ball, and the game would have to be called if it should break, he covered his dome with his lunch hooks, the horsehide fell just where his Ivory should have been causing him, to catch the cipher. To the surprise of everyone, Mende decided that his only chance was to stand up and slug; but Edwards soon changed his mind. Danny stepped in and exchanged wallpops to the fan's delight causing Mende to break ground. As usual Danny gave away several rounds. "Chiffpsing" Broady, has been trying to tell us, for some time past, that he was a real pitcher, but no one would take him very serious. So "Chirp" realized that the time was ripe for him to demonstrafe. Believe as he did. If Broady ever pitched he did last week and is due all the praise and credit for the victory. Even Hayes (Hippo) Robinson one of the star pitchers for the Y. M. C. A. became so excited, that he wanted to get a chance to face Broady and see if he could get a hit, but the Broadway Dear Reader: We are sorry that all the inquiries cannot be answered in the paper..if you will call at the office we will try and answer them as best we can: those that can be answered are as follows: No. 3—That funny thing which you termed "misplaced eyebrow" has been discovered by science to be a Cootie nouch. In the 5th inning Broody was in the box, he allowed five hits, walked two men and struck out 11. He had perfect control. The score: No. 4—His age we do not know, but he knows everything that took place when Washington crossed the Delaware. **BROADWAY**— 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 0—3 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 3 0—5 **L. A.

No. 6—John E. is correct. Why is William M. Watson scout- ing-around pricing boxes of Cigars? We know he is not figuring on making any Xmas presents, and he doesn't want the Cigars delivered until March SAN DIEGO LATONIA HORSE SHOE TOURNAMENT NEARS END. Ramsey Leading by Close Margin The race for the Latonia "Horse Shoe" Club's Cup, is nearing the end, with several players trying for first place. Al Ramsey has been leading all through the tournament was almost "ousted" from first place at the hands of Dan Badgett, who defeated the former two out of three. The race seems to stand between the first four players, these being out as far as the cup is concerned. F. R. Price, considered to be one of the best players in the race, and during the balance of the series will succeed Dude Davis who is absent from the city on business; played a double, header Sunday and was the victor in four out of six games; he may usurp the others in the last two weeks of play. POSTPONED GAME TO BE PLAYED TODAY. The scrummage between the L. A. POLICE and Y. M. C. A. will be played off today on the Slauson Playground diamonds. The Police have been playing airtight ball and should put up a fight that the "Y" squad won't forget for some time to come.

Skating champion and his manager. D. J. Scanian are going across the sea to race a skater by the name of Mathelson for a purse of $25,000. McLean will give several exhibitions before returning to America. Tennis Chatter YB WM . M. WATSON E. J. Peters arrived in town last Monday over the Santa Fe brim full of the latest New York designs in up-to-date hand-picked tennis eloquence, but no one was able to say whether economical old Pete climbed off the top or from underneath the luxurious Pullman. He was pompously posing in front of it when first seen, although Mrs. E. J. was plainly seen leaving the inside. If wise old Pete did nurse a rod across the continent or flatten out on top, with the mercury flirtting around the zero mark, he should be crowned the champion hobo of the world. Both Mr. and Mrs. Pete are looking the picture of health and are bubbling over with praise of the big burg and the East in general. Pete says if he ever gets another chance at the national champion, Taly Holmes, he will clean him sure, and it must not be forrotten that Holmes didn't have a cinch either when he opened up with Peters as his first opponent, as Pete came near eliminating the champ in the first round, and had the eight hundred spectators frothing at the mouth for quite a spell, but Pete finally lost, no doubt as much from a severe case of stage-fright as anything else. 7-5, 7-5. In men's doubles Pete was no lemon either, going into the third stanza with a fellow by the name of Titus. and also in mixed doubles with a Miss Conick, the third frame was reached before his Peteship was pulverized. We are sure to hear from Pete soon, so pin your ears back. For some unexplained reason Earnest Bynum seems to feel awfully chesty all of a sudden: in fact that particular section of his person is bulging out about 14 inches over the property line and needs puncturing badly. Wisely excusing the five champs: Broyles, Oliver, Kemp, Harris and Gladden. Ernie chirrups that he will set 'em up to anybody who can put it on him in a three set match, but he is simply crying for a go with either Al Matthews or Philip Davis. But allow us to say right here, while Al may be the most popular and cutest piece of furniture ever incased in tennis togs, but Phil is no slouch on a tennis court, and anybody is using rare judgement in dodging this bird, and for references upon this subject we respectfully rerer you to Mr. Edward Nathaniel Harris. QUESTION BOX: Q. How much will it cost to fit my 14-year-old son out for tennis? A reader. A. A tennis racket is of most importance and most costly; we do not recommend a cheap racket even for a boy who is harder on them than men are; an $8 racket is the cheapest we suggest, and the better racket the longer it will last them; be sure to get a press and case; two tennis balls 50c each; tennis shoes $1.25 to $2.50.

GRAY One of the great drawbacks that young race students have is the lack of encouragement. This has caused many a young, aspiring student to give up in despair or to follow the giddy shallow-brained crowd. Many times a thoughtless saying will be the turning point in one's career and the ambitions of a child will be blighted by the atmosphere of indifference. Stupid parents will send their children to a teacher and then object to hearing him practice the exercises that the teacher gives him. It is the duty of the parent to find out as much as possible about the child's lessons and then see to it that he practices it as he has been told to do. It is very encouraging to the child to have mother or father come in and sit down to listen to one of his pieces. The wise parent will refrain from expressing his or her dislike of a certain composition especially if said compositions music of a higher order. The teacher may be trying to cultivate a taste for the best in music and if the child feels that no one likes his piece he will form a dislike for it also. When children are asked to play for company, a wise thing to do, is to have the child play some of the pieces that he has studied along with the music of a more popular order, and to insist upon those present being quiet during their rendition. It is an insult to ask one to play and then immediately begin talking. Sometimes a club or a similar organization will ask a young student to play for them on a program and never think to thank him for doing so. An official note or card of thanks is very encouraging and makes him feel that his services are appreciated. After years perhaps, of giving one's services free to everybody that asks for them, the times comes when the young artist wants to give a recital, to secure the necessary money to further continue his studies. And then, the most cruel thing of all happens, the most discouraging feature of his young career; the people to whom he has given all his time and talent won't even buy a ticket. The excuse is that they have heard him so often, and forgetting that they owe it to him to take a ticket. This common ingratitude goes on from one end of the country to the other and has crushed many ambitious race boys and girls. Every encouragement possible should be given our young boys and girls who show the slightest sign of progress, for in many cases the most unpromising, and seemingly slow plodder develops into a very praiseworthy musician. IN CHURCH I go to church with Mother 'cause She says she loves to have me there She says my eyes are big and round. And that there's sunshine in my hair The people sit so very still. With sort of sleepy stary eyes; They rustle, yawn or look through books. They look so stupid or so wise. I wonder God delights in them But Mother's eyes have little light That make her different and dear; She often smiles down just at me, As if to say: "I'm glad you're here" And makes my heart feel sort of queer. And once I told her that my church Was just the bit of bluest sky, And dancing leaves the window shows The little window we sit by— I told her that I loved that best, And she said, "Darling so do I!" —Amy E. Campbell, in the Toronto Globe. PROMINENT CLERGYMAN DEMONSTRATES BY PRACTICAL DEMONSTRATION. Real Producer and Business Factor Rev. F. H. Davis who came here a few years ago to take charge of the Mt. Zion Baptist Church and who filled that position for some time, was recognized as a first class and highly creditable ambassador of the Muster, has also obliterated the moth eaten idea that preachers cannot succeed along the line of production or that of business. On the contrary Rev. Davis turned down numerous offers to pastorals which would require of hime all of his time at renumerative salaries and entered into the account of business by opening up a time repairing establishment in a small way, but since opening his business has increased with such rapidity that he has had to move to larger 1 ```markdown ``` quarters and even now it is imperative that he must move again because he has outgrown his present quarters at 1221 Central Avenue. He has a modern and up-to-date repair shop, all of the latest machinery for both making and repairing of footwear; asble from this he carries all sorts of shoe supplies, polish, etc., and has added a full supply of children's shoes. He has revolutionized the shoe repairing business in this section, his metto is first-class work at the lowest possible price. His effort is worthy of the continued support of the people and with such support in a very short time Mr. Davis will come forth on Central Avenue with a real Shoe Store which will be a high credit to not only this section of the city, but the entire city as well. To be known as a home owner is the best possible recommendation. It ranks you among the earnest and thrifty. Oklahoma Investment Company. Phone 29036. 1894 Central avenue.

IT proposes to issue policies and transact business along the same plans as the New York Life, Illinois Life, Metropolitan and all other Stand- ard Life Insurance Companies. WE call your particular attention to the fact that OLD LINE LEGAL RE- SERVE STOCK COMPANIES are considered the safest, soundest and most substantial Standard Life Insurance Companies in the world. THE laws governing the insurance companies are so much more rigid than any other branch of the financial world that a FAILURE of a life insurance company organized under the Old_Line Legal Reserve plan of the various states is almost unheard of. NOW! is the time to take advantage of our mistakes for the past fifty years as a race of people, by proving to the world at large that we CAN and WILL cooperate the same as other groups are doing, and until we do learn to co-operate, we can never hope to be a power as a Race of people. WE must begin investing our money in legitimate race enterprises of all kinds, and remember, that no matter what our shortcomings might be, it is up to us to work out our own destiny, and in doing so, we are going to make many mistakes. However, that should not discourage us, because, no people have ever accomplished anything who did not make mistakes. RECENT disturbances throughout the United States have "AT LAST" convinced us that WE CANNOT and MUST NOT, depend upon other groups to help us. And after all, it will be better for us, because they have forced us to begin opening up businesses of our own, whereas, before we were satisfied with supporting theirs, not knowing at what moment they would close their doors against us, which they did without a moment's notice. STOP FINDING FAULT with those who are trying to promote business enterprises. Instead of criticising their methods of doing business and predicting their downfall, GET BEHIND THEM and help them to succeed in whatever business they are trying to promote. START TODAY by subscribing for at least one share of stock in the LIBERTY LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, which is going to give employment to thousands of our young men and women, protection to thousands of homes and help to educate thousands of our children. THE success of Standard Life of Atlanta, Georgia, and the North Carolina Mutual, of Durham, North Carolina, has proven that our people are capable of managing the affairs of large financial institutions of this kind. Without any objection on my part, will thank you to send me further particular relative to securing stock in your company.
