THE TREASON OF CIVIL IZATION
To Jim-Crow a Supporter of our Flag
And a Defender of our Government on Account of the Color Race or Creed, is an Insult to the Flag, a Disgrace to the Government and a Confession of Weakness of Manhood
The birth of the American independence merely opened an epoch in the development of American rights — it was not their final expression, it was a long reach from their selfishness of the primitive peoples, up through the groping struggles of the medawal ages to the cry for liberty in '76; but even then liberty meant only the exercise of the power of each individual. The men of the Revolution imbued with the doctrines of French philosophy, guaranteed freedom to the individual to act within his own capabilities, but left the hard law of the survival of the fittest to crush the weak.
After years of this development, we had hoped that we had risen to the ideals of bettering the whole people. Even the fathers of our Constitution subordinated the intent of the Nation as a whole to the sovereignty of the State and the civil war was the price which the American people paid for the lack of National spirit at that critical period.
It is true that the constitution is still silent as to this state of sovereignty but in the hurid lights of that great conflict this silence is no longer misinterpreted and in the rank and file of the Grand Army of the Republic those old comrades abide under the universal influences of God and the common Brotherhood of Man. Whatever may have been our blunder or our mistakes, our wonderful resources have led to a marvelous prosperity and we find OUR-SELVES IN A CATACLYSM OF HELLISINESS wrought on by the serfs of an ungrateful Nation.
A HALTING FAITH INQUIRES whether the republic which men heralded as the LAND OF THE FREE and the HOME OF THE BRAVE is not THE LAND OF GREED AND HATE? It inquires further into the fabric or makeshift of this government and IN PLAIN DISTINCT WORDS asks the American people, IS THE COLOR OF THE AMERICAN FLAG FADING?
The American Legion has jim-crowed the Negro Veterans of the World war. They have segregated them off into posts of their own and WHY? The Stars and Stripes, the Legion's official paper only contributes a small squibble or two to the dolings of the Jim-crowed American Legion. This is an insult that could only come from the lowest cur of civilization.
The sovereignty of each individual is a noble proclamation but is violated under every star of the American Flag and though true it is, that in the struggle upwards we come upon evil times yet today we face abnormal and deplorable conditions. They are made possible but not necessitated by the principle enunciated by the democratic party. It would be indolent and criminal to close our eyes to the evils of conscienceless men of the Legion who are stifling the manhood and challenging the loyalty of young America to our colors.
Out from the ages of evolution and reconstruction steadily grew this republic of republics, this Nation of Nations, this constitution of constitutions, this ideal to which all lands and times and tongues have come and contributed; and the seething recessive tendencies of the Brotherhood of Man and the Fatherhood of God, are but the symptoms painful though they be, that ARE FADING OUT THE COLORS IN THE GREAT AMERICAN FLAG. FROM THE CIVIC LAVATORY OF THE WORLD and the RED BLOOED AMERICANISM which we all clamor for and demand must come
this freedom of public spirit—this spirit of manhood—this spirit of sovereignty of the individual people of the world, to worship a common God around a common heartstone.
This AMERICANISM which had its genesis in the changing and rising conception of all Nations must not wane. The Negro should never allow through their anxiousness, a sanction of the segregation and humiliation of an organized body-politic of which they are parcel and part, NEVER WHEN THEIR RIGHT HAS BEEN EARNED so nobly, when they have poured out their life's blood upon the battlefields for the maintenance of the principles of the same government and under the same standards as that of the white Americans. The color of the skin nor the texture of the hair will never solve a problem. In fact there is no problem, the white man in speaking of the Japanese, refers to the great yellow peril, but when it comes to the Negro it is a problem. This condition we must overcome ourselves. Our already probity will not earn this for us BUT IN A MANLY WAY WE MUST TELL THE WHITE MAN THAT WE ARE YET OF EARTH, we have borne your struggles with you, we have given to the protection of the MOST SACRED EMBLEM of this GOVERNMENT all that we have THAT IT MIGHT FLY IN A COMMON COMMUNION FOR ALL AMERICANS ALLIE whether he be black, yellow, white or brown AND THAT IN AS MUCH THAT WE HAVE FALLEN on every blood-drenched battlefield of American conflicts—We Will Not Sction your slander of the Flag by segregating ourselves at your blinding.
We thank God that we have never challenged the life of a President nor have we ever Treasoned nor traited the GREAT AMERIGAN government. Then my dear readers, you that are proud that you are Negroes—proud that you have contributed to the making of the history of our Country, let us through whose veins course the blood that so nobly challenged the cause of the Argonne Forests, Vimy Ridge. St. Mihlel and Metz, stand by and protest against this pressaging Treason of the American White Man.

AN ELABORATE RECEPTION
CELEBRATE FIFTH PRESIDENTIAL TERM WITH ELABORATE RECEPTION.
The Women's Home and Foreign Missionary Society of the Second St. A missile attached, is very imprisonments are concerned, is one of the strongest unfederated clubs in the whole West. Incidentally the Old Folks Home might be mentioned as a product of their efforts, for it was through this body that the organization was promoted. Whatever they have accomplished in the past has been done so through their unfailing loyalty one to the other and because of their ever readiness to serve. It was just these two virtues that causes the event of Thursday evening. February 5th to stand out as memorable in the life of the society, and a brilliant one to the minds of all witnesses
Because of her unfalling loyalty to her Co-workers in all the five years that she has worked with them as their president, because of their high sense of appreciation and knowledge of worth the Women's Home and Foreign Missionary Society yof the Second Baptist Church accorded to their President, Mrs. Pauline Hubert, on last Thursday evening an honorary reception.
Mrs. Simon Williams is to be congratulated as inspirator of the event upon the wonderful success wrought through her efforts. The women of the Society are to be congratulated for their spirit of co-operation which was the key to the success of the occasion.
More than a hundred guests paid their respects through attendance. The program rendered was delightful and was enjoyed by all; some of the most noteworthy of the features thereof being the Welcome address which was most beautifully colored by Mrs. M. A. Caviness. The response by Mrs. C. A. Bass did not lack any of the grace or sweet gratitude that a response of a hearty welcome to a festival should have, it was done by Mrs. Bass—sufficient. The solo by little Miss Velma White caused all to proclaim her for the hundredth time a marvel and a future Patti. The instrumental solo by Mr. Chas. White was enjoyable. One of the features of the program most worth mentioning was the original poem read and composed by Mrs. Turner. Then the address by the President, Mrs. Hubert. Surely every word that she said was from her heart, for has not her efforts for the past five years told more than words could tell? Surely was one reminded of that portion of Abraham Lincoln's famous Gettysburg speech. "It is not what we say here today, it is what they did here." So did the guests feel in expressing their appreciation of the evening. So does the writer feel in trying to tell of it.
ODD FELLOWS TO THE FOREFRONT
The Grand United Order of Odd Fellows of the jurisdiction of California in its several branches are making indeed a commendable showing for progress in all of the various communities which boast of organizations of this ancient and progressive order and it bids fair this year to eclipse all previous records in so far as growth and benefits are concerned. Adopt Endowment Plan.
The greatest forward step by, this great Order has been the adoption of a safe and sane endowment plan. It is conceded that the failure of the Order in this jurisdiction to be progressive and measure up with other jurisdiction has been a weight on its progress, and now with an Endowment which is as popular as this one its future growth will knows no bounds. On submitting to a referendum all except one ledge voted for this Endowment which is strong and prime face evidence of its worth.
THE PEOPLE'S FORUM FOR UPLIFT ALL MEN UP—NO MAN DOWN.
At this time new lodges are being set up throughout Imperial Valley, Grand Master J. B. Bass only recently at El Centro certified a list of forty-five prospective Odd Fellows with another club in the making at Imperial and prospects at Calexico; other cities are inquiring for opportunities to establish Odd Fellow Lodges.
At the same time the various lodges or 90 per cent of the mare adding members to their roll at each monthly meeting.
Material Advancement.
One of the things which attract the average man to the Odd Fellows is the spirit of "Be Something," "Have Something" and "Do Something" which prevails. Take a community like Watts, California, the brothers here are striving now to build their very own Hall also at Vallejo at Riverside, and it is the announced intention of the newest lodge in the district at El Centro to build their own Hall at once.
Starting New Year.
The marvelous showing made by Golden Rule, Los Angeles; Sterling Light and Monrovia Lodges at the recent public installation services was indeed a high credit to the Order and it is conceded on all sides that the Odd Fellows of the jurisdiction of California is making a new record for progress. J. B. Bass is Grand Master, S. P. Johnson, Grand Secretary, Geo. B. Gordon of Riverside, Deputy Grand Master, A. B. Caviel of Vallejo, Grand Treasurer, W. T. Allen of Oakland, District Grand Director.

(Continued from Last Issue) to the Lord of hosts of a people scattered and peeld, and from a people terrible from their beginning hitherto, a nation meted out and trodden under foot, whose land the rivers have spoiled, to the place of the name of the Lord of hosts, the mount Zion." We will notice Isaiah 60:1, 2, 3, 4: "Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee. For behold the darkness shall cover the earth and gross darkness the people; but the Lord shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee and the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising. Lift up thine eyes round about and see all they gather themselves together, they come to the; thy sons shall come from far, and thy daughters shall be nursed at thy side." These are Ethiopians coming together. God is calling them together from all parts of the globe. Notice Isaiah 49:12: "Behold, these shall come from far and lo, these from the north and from the west; and these frogs the land of Sinnin. God is calling all the Ethiopians together in a great meeting." Isaiah 60:5, 6: "Then thou shalt see and flow together and thine heart shall fear and be enlarged, because the abundance of the sea shall be covered unto thee, th forces of the Gentiles shall come unto thee. The multitude of camels shall cover thee, the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah; all they from Sheba shall come; they shall bring gold and incense; and they shall shew forth the praises of the Lord. All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered together unto thee; they shall come up with acceptance on mine altar, and I will glorify the house of my glory." 8: "Who are these that fly as cloud, and as the doves to their windows?" 9: "Surely the isles shall wait for me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, unto the name of the Lord thy God, and to the Holy one of Israel, because he hath glorified thee." 10: "Therefore thy gates shall be open continually; they shall not be shalt day nor night; that men may bring unto thee the forces of the Gentiles, and that their kings may be brought."

Confidante
FOR GIRLS
(Charlotte Brickhouse)
The nation's asking why this stir,
And why this host's all fired;
The answer comes from far and near.
The Negro's getting tired.
He has fought in all great battles.
He cleared the field and smiled.
While other folks who fought or toiled
Were either chafed or riled.
In peace he work; in wars he fought
He did all things required.
He helped to save the nation's cause
But now he's getting tired.
In discussing the age and origin of the various army insignias the Home Sector Magazine says: "The twenty-fifth corps was composed entirely of colored soldiers. it was the first to occupy Richmond, Virginia, April 3, 1865; Major General Godfrey Weitzel selected the square as the corps badge. pleading for fairness on the racial issue.
"Say, who won the war?" the Home Sector Magazine recently published an article on the doughboy and the Distinguished Service medal wards. We note one magazine broad enough to recognize all men—an extract follows> "A Negro stevedore in the S. O. S. (Service of Supply) unloaded flour for thirty-six hours without a rest, stopping only when he collapsed from exhaustion. A Sergeant experimented with deadly gases in a Paris laboratory until he perfected a sabre which saved many lives on the battle field.
Were these men at the time when they risked their own lives to save the lives of other, and to further the work of the American Army in positions of great responsibility? The war department says all of them, and a long list of other who did similar deeds, were recommended for the D. S. M.—none of them got it.
Fay King Tells Why Jazz Bandit Always Wins Over the Plymouth Rock.
With liquor laid low and soda selections too sore to snare taxi teasers, it's a cinch a lot of brazenian bables will be turning to the church and safety shelters and if the benefiting boards aren't a bunch of bunk and go about it right they're goin' to have a great opportunity to save gain that have been going the gay gait.
Winning young women from the wide and wild to the straight and narrow is going to take tact, and, as the old saving goes, it takes a thief to catch a thief, it's going to take good fellowship to corral a good fellow. The reason the jazz bandits rope in a victim so easy is because they never ask questions.
They never ask where you're from or where you're headin' to what you've been or what you are, and they seem like friends right from the drop of the hat!
And these rescue recruiters ought to adopt the same method. Instead of makin' a girl that paints tell her life's history it wouldn't be a bad stunt to meet her half way with a lip-stick and rouge, then she'll feel at ease—that's half the battle won.
What if she does start reading the Bible with a cigarette in one hand, that's better than not reading it at all—and the first thing you know she'll lay down the cigarette.
I was talking to a little dame not long ago who had the best intentions in the world for reforming—but the jolt was too tough. She said that the women in charge of the place she went to live were hard as cement, and every time they look at her she felt somebody was laying a cornerstone on her chest. The old gang seemed just three times more human, and she beat it back.
Every girl that beads her eyelashes and roughes her cheeks isn't bad—and if I were framing a rescue committee I'd get a bunch of real jolly women together, that would keep the place full of life and good fellowship, who never ask any questions, never criticise, and don't make "being good" such a long-faced, powderless, cold and methodical proposition.
Black No More Dangerous
Atlanta, Ga.—The work of the Anti-Tuberculosis Association among the Colored people of Atlanta has been such that it has protected not only them, but white families with which they come in contact from the ravages of disease, declares Miss Rosa Lowe, secretary of said association.
Miss Lowe says that no more white people contract tuberculosis from Colored people in Atlanta than Colored people contract tuberculosis from white people. A Negro woman who washes clothes for a white family in which there is tuberculosis
* is just as apt to catch the disease
* from soiled garment as a tuberulent
* washerwoman, bringing clothes to
* a white family, is apt to give the disease
* to some member of the family,
says Miss Lowe.
Hoboken, N. J.—As part of its work, the section of music of the Department of Religious Education of the Young Women's Christian Association is compiling a book of Negro melodies suitable for girls' voices. This book will also contain hymns which have proved themselves to be universal favorites among school girls. Stories of the origin and the interpretation of the Negro melodies will also be included, that the girls who sing may fully appreciate their charm
* IN THE MUSIC WORLD *
*(By John A. Gray)*
Interesting articles on Negro Music by Clarence Cameron White are running in the current issues of "Musical Observer." Much light is thrown on different phases of our Folk Songs and the information given is very helpful and educational SEVEN—to all classes of musicians and music lovers.
The Flonzaley Quartet is playing the quartet on Negro themes, op. 19 by Daniel Gregory Mason. The entire second movement is practically the famous "Deep River." This quartet is dedicated to the Flonzaleys and is well received wherever it is performed.
Reed Miller, the tenor, is praised by critics for his admirable interpretation and excellent rendition of "Negro Spirituals." He is said to have true poetic insight and is able to feel the proper mood for their rendition.

It is with pleasure that we note the increase in recent vocal endeavors. Last week a young women's Choral Study Club was formed under the efficient direction of Miss Maudetta Rosemond. These young ladies have serious aims for future work and are very enthusiastic about them. The membership is not limited and all young women interested should communicate with Miss Rosemond at once. She can be found at the Wilkins School of Music.
Another thing of interest is the coming vocal contest which will be given by the Musician's Progressive Association.
This energy along vocal lines is very encouraging and shows that the vocal world is progressing.

You don't know what you missed
If you were not at the luncheon;
And I hardly know just how on
earth—to tell you.
Sure "eats" were on the list
But that's not much to mention;
If you didn't care to laugh, sure
they'd—
Compell you.
They ate and Joshed like "heck"
Nor did they spare the bug 'uns;
Until we introduced the—
Evening's Orders.
And then you betcher neck
You'd thought they were real "Bug
Guns;"—
House of Lords, for instance—
In our quarters.
Yes we had it and there were near forty fellows present from the various high schools and U. S. C. We had a great time and the fellows have never ceased talking about it. As we explained the motive of the affair was not the mere eating of the "Boston Baked" and sandwiches and the drinking of that good ole lemonade nor did it merely stop at the wonderful "get-acquainted" of fellows who should have known each other but didn't. After some remarks of fun and folly the meeting changed into one of "strictly business" and from the start everyone was all ears and brains. Then discussion and more discussion out of which developed the beginning of a club of young fellows equal to any in the state. Secretary Greene gave the boys much encouragement in his short comment. The name has not yet been selected but it is to compose High School and College fellows, who stand for the best in everything. Are you a member? It will take two weeks for the committee to frame the constitution, etc. but we will re-assemble for definite organization on February 30th. It will pay every fellow who has the qualifications to get in on the ground

TENNIS CHATTER
Wendell Gladden, city champion, member of the Omega Tennis Club and recently a Manual Arts High grad, is bubbling over with enthusiasm and is full 'o pep and ginger and rearing to join the Los Angeles County Tennis League which opens its 1920 circuit schedule Sunday, February 29th.
Gladden is the first one of our boys to make an effort to get into fast company, and if four or five more of our raquet swingers will show some speed we can enter a wonderfully strong team to represent us. Sixteen teams have entered the circuit, all ready, there are four to six players in each team and they will play every Sunday in singles and doubles. It is a pity that more of our cracks can't muster up enough courage to swop blows with the local Gringo crowd, how will they ever get anywhere if they don't step out?
All that is required is that each applicant appear in person to sign up at Dyas Sporting Good departement, 7th and Olive Sts., Mr. Frank Smith is handling the bookings.
Now boys this is a real opportunity so make use of it, you must enter immediately if at all, so "shake a leg". Surely six good men are available from the following bunch of champs: Ex-Champs and Champs to be—Philip Davis; Rosco Broyles; Doc. B. A. Jordon; Paul and Chester Williams; Herbert Rainey; Hassel Davis; Wm. Dunn; Ray and Al Matthews; Lucion; Prosper; Arthus Maloney; Richard Winters; Elroy Lott; Walter McNeal; Wendell Gladden; Joe Oliver; Tom Bain; E. J. Peters; Eddie Harris.
A letter from Herb Hawkins of the Alpha Club who is eating fog around Frisco town these days tells of much gay life in the Bay Cities. Herb says he is about to organize a tennis club and says that the fog-eaters are strong for a tournament this summer, also that he is fast whipping into shape; having several entanglement with the University boys at the Berkeley Courts.
Question Box
Q. How many clubs comprise the Western Federation of Tennis Clubs? Over what territory does it exercise control? What authority does it exercise over clubs individually?—T. F. W.
A. The Federation is composed of the following clubs: Alpha; Alpha Parthenial; West Side; Young Women's Athletic League; Omega; Y. W. C. A.; Glendale; Santa Monica; Young Women's Alliance (Pasadena); and the Alpha Tennis and Outing Club of Seattle. The Federation covers all the States lying West of the Rockies. It governs all official tournaments, rates and classifies players, but makes no attempt to handle each club's business.
Q. Are colored players admitted in the L. A. County League? How many players to a team?—A Reader.
A. The Secretary of the Southern California Tennis Association states that no bars are existent in any branch of tennis in Southern California. Not less than four or more than six players will complete a team. Wm. M. Watson, Press'Agent Western Federation of Tennis Clubs, 1474 E. 23rd St.; South 5219.
FORUM NOTES.
Sunday past was not too murky to keep the Forum patrons away—an interesting little crowd was on hand both to take and to give advice. It is encouraging to find our people assembling in various gatherings even though it rains.
The Rev. J. F. F. Cuddy, a retired missionary will address the Forum this coming Sunday, February 15th, on the subject: "America Ten Years From Now, According to Biblical prophecy. This subject has been given the deepest thought, therefore, it promises much for our deepest consideration.

The passing of the Treaty pact with reservations will after all show up the President as a weaker man with his party than Wm. Jennings Bryan.
The chilly blasts of mid-winter seems to have no terrors for the followers of the Lincoln League and their big meeting at Chicago, this week, since it is reported as a great success.
The one big requisite in launching any big enterprise is exploitation and our efforts to do big things will fall short as long as we fail to properly exploit the same.
It is said that a big cooking had been arranged in one of the county departments, but the fire got so hot that the dope all went wrong and someone had to cover up the big feed.
In spite of the Record, Chief Home and his force of officers go merrily along capturing in jig time, bank robbers, thieves and cut throats.
Union labor has another nut to crack in the cracker state of Mississippi where the various locals threaten to bolt the A. F. L. unless the activity in organizing Negro Unions is suspended. Labor has boasted long and well as to its friendship for the Negro. What will its answer be?
St. Louis Negroes with the Citizen's Liberty League seem to be cutting some ice and are at least on the way to accomplish the things they set out to gain. Then progress should be an object lesson in all communities in which any particular group have been denied their just representation.
Pursuant to a recent law passed in the State of Texas we note that the pool halls of that State have all been closed. It will be well for the men who conduct pool halls in this and other States to take notice and govern their places on the highest possible order and make favorable sentiment instead of the unfavorable. Its looking a long ways ahead but at that its worth while.
ENFORCES THE LAW.
Gov. Edwin P. Morrow of Kentucky defended the honor of his State this week when he called out its Malitia and ordered it to fire on one of those mobs intent upon disregarding law and order.
It is stated that several persons were slain, but the Negro managed to get a trial which lasted but a few minutes when he was convicted by a Jury.
Whether or not this Negro was guilty of the crime ascribed to him, only God knows; for it is said, by the N. A. A. C. P, and similar organizations that Negroes accused of such crime in the South are put through such inhuman torture that he would almost confess to having slain Jesus.
LETS LINE UP FOR REAL PROGRESS—DOLITICAL AND OTHERWISE.
For many years in Los Angeles the colored voters have been used as pawns; not only by the wiles of the majority group, but by their own people as well. This disgraceful condition will not hold under the new order of things and the time has come when the old time leader must go into discard. The people themselves must determine their own political salvation and stand for no hand-picked, or self-appointed leaders. The trades which have been made in the past to the discredit of a people shall remain

buried; but we shall not stand for any more bartering, and leadership posing for political preferment, either for cash or patronage. We invite leadership that will lead for the betterment of our conditions, such leadership however must be based on actual service to the people. No back ground methods will be tolerated, if such is attempted by friend or foe we are going to inform the people. Our timely warning to the political tricksters who are wont to sneak round into some politician's office and attempt to deliver something they have no claim on, is to be careful what you do.
We are wise to every movement going on and right now to say the least there are some mysterious movements going on But leave it to us, let us speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves and we are going to see to it that the people are not crucified neither shall they be sold for the invariable mess of bacon and greens. Therefore, with these warnings let us line up all along the line for real and lasting progress, let us eschew the hand-picked and self-appointed leaders and choose our own and then take our place in the line of March of progress and keep pace with the pace-makers for the same.
The police are to be commended for their effort to clean up on Central Ave. There are conditions on this thoroughfare which are a disgrace to civilization and all the people who stand for decency, law and order should stand right back of the police in cleaning up these dens.
POLITICAL POT PIE
And now while quite a furore was created over the entry of Attorney E. Burton Cerutti as a contender for the nomination against Fred Roberts for the Assembly in the 74th District, let us say it was only a scare. Cerutti according to our reckoning had no idea of entering the race.
Political headquarters will look odd this campaign without the presence of the well konw and irresistable Chas. Olivier, who has forsaken the political arena and entered into business for himself, via the private detective route.
E. J. Delorey the village blacksmith and all around good fellow will try the come back this year for the office of Supervisor from the 4th District.
Frank H. Mouser is allowing no grass to grow under his feet this time and declare the big surprise party will be on Senator Hart if he gets into the Senatorial race from the 29th district.
The Colored Women's Republican Club of Southern California will soon be organized for active service in the coming campaign.
Daddy Luke says the movies pay so much better than politics is the reason that he remains a Movie Star.
It looks like the colored voters never forget their friends that stood by Commissioner Hamilton to the man in Wednesday's recall election.
Mr. Titus Alexander the premier democrat of the Western section is a live wire and soon the political horizon will assume a lurid hue.
The latest political dope fresh off of the wire is to the effect that either N. D. Thompson or J. W. Wesley will enter the race for the assembly from the 73rd Assembly District.

"I am for Men!" then an especially written composition. "Rev. Gordon Back to his Friends in the West," which constitutes a touching expression of the regard in which this great Orator is held by his members and friends of California. You should hear her.

A CARD OF THANKS
To the friends for their expressions of sympathy during the illness and bereavement of our mother and grandmother, we hereby attempt to express some of the gratitude we felt. We could not claim this as a sufficient mode of expression for the many acts of kindness, comforting words of cheer and floral offerings. Those things are as bread cast upon the water or as seed sown in fertile soil. words are inadequate.
The M' Zion Baptist Church, for the beautiful wreath and appropriate resolutions, we especially mention.
To the club of faithful young women who have accomplished so much because of their faithfulness, the Charter Member Club of the Y. W. C. A., we feel greatly indebted for their lovely service in song, word and flowers.
Out of full hearts, we thank you one and all.
MRS. MATTIE ALBRITTON
AND FAMILY.
The Charter Member Club offers tonight, Saturday 14th in honor of this celebrated festival of the young, hospitality. Come to their retreat at 1108 E. 12th St., and enjoy yourselves free. Bring a valentine, no objections to real ones, paper ones solicited.
The January Crisis with its typically romantic cover claims our immediate attention. The subject matter is varied and interesting. "The Success of Negro Migration" is in itself an article of merit, while the pictures are all stories from life in themselves. "Six Notable Negro Buildings" is one of these pictures.

However, his welcome is trebled now that he brings Mrs. Tilghman with him. The residents in the Valley were profuse in their congratulations to Mr. Tilghman upon his charming bride, and long life in Santa Clara prosperity were wished for them by all present.

The place of meeting is especially fitted up for meetings of this character with chairs and room for all, all who want to see real progress along the lines of political effort and who will assist in launching this Republican organization.

"Being like Christ." The sermon was short, but many good thoughts were advanced. Visitors were present from San Bernardino; we were very pleased to have them, and we welcome them to come and worship with us in the near future. A splendid offering was taken at this service. The pastor, officers and members were invited to the Second Baptist Church in the afternoon to take part in the Installation services. Quite a large crowd responded to the invitation.
The pastor preached at the evening service from the subject: "Righteousness." Indeed it was a very powerful sermon and enjoyed; as well as being beneficial to all present. The specialty in music was a Vocal Duett by Misses Hattie and Fannie Hopkins—"Speak a Word for Jesus." It was beautifully rendered. Rev. S. H. Goodwin of the 2nd Bapt. Church was with us and his presence was highly appreciated. we hope that he will come again very soon. The offering was especially good at this service. The pastor is with us each week and there will be Bible study each Evening.

EDITOR'S VISIT TO SEATTLE
It is never too late to record impressions gained or personalities met; therefore the Eagle editor from time to time may take occasion to mention the things which we witnessed and the personalities we met on our recent trip to that city.
The Rev. W. D. Carter pastor of the Baptist Church of Seattle struck as a strong force for the progress of this particular community. A man with a vision for big things who does not hesitate to get right out with the people and march on to victory. We visited his church and were most favorably impressed with the service and real Christian spirit which prevailed.
F. R. Brooks a musician and leader of one of Seattle's musical organizations, whom we knew more than 20 years ago, was our leading man, our star when we essayed to be an impressario way back yonder in Kansas. Brooks hale and well-met was always a prime favorite and a thorough gentleman. We, were therefore indeed pleased to meet him and that himself and helpmate are so nicely located in Seattle. He is the resident agent and correspondent for the Soaring Eagle, if you want information about the Eagle see Brooks, 2329 E. Madison St.

Mrs. Leftwich is an old Kansas City man and many of his friends will be pleased to know that they are so nicely located in Seattle and that Mr. Leftwich is the proprietor of a prosperous Tailoring and Cleaning establishment.
Sergent Wroman—We will always feel indebted to Sgt. Wroman who was at our command with his nicely equipped auto and shall not cease to sing his praises; he is a retired member of the U. S. Army, nicely situated and one of Seattle's foremost citizens.
At a later date we shall continue to write of our impressions and persons we met while at Seattle and in the great Northwest.
