Santa Clara Valley, Lower Cal., Mexico, Feb. 20—Headed by Rev. Walter Neal, the well known farmer-preacher of Blythe, California and Mr. George Whitfield, the champion corn raiser of Palo Verde Valley, the second contingent of the Blythe farmers arrived here today. Rev. Neal is accompanied by his wife and family. Mrs. Whitfield accompanied Mr. Whitfield. There were eleven in the party, which is the largest single group of farmers yet to enter the Santa Clara Valley at one time. All are now busy erecting tents and toorrow the men will begin work on their respective farms. Wheat planting has come to an end. The boys all celebrated by joining in a big hunt which netted numerous quail and rabbits and a fat buck, which furnished the piece-resistance at a special wedding supper tended Mr. and Mrs. John Tilghman, the newly arrived bride and groom. Mr. J. N. Littlejohn arrived from Los Angeles bringing with him a large supply of seed for planting. Additional farming equipment including two new sulky ploughs have arrived. --- 1 Two wagon outfits are busy hauling lumber from La Puerta to Santa Clara, which lumber is being used in the erection of the ten-room two-story Swiss Chaplet of Mr. L. D. Losson of Racine, Wisconsin. Mr. John E. Gresser, the contractor, is hard at work assisted by Mr. Ennos Chavis of Caston, Ohio. Mr. Paul Williams, architect of Los Angeles, California, is expected in the Valley about the middle of March for the purpose of taking architectural notes for the erection of a number of houses here during the coming summer. The rainfall here is excellent and the wheat is up now about six inches. PRESIDING ELDER WILSON AT THE BAT. PRESIDING ELDER J. H. WILSON BOOSTS ATTORNEY W. O. TYLER FOR POLITICAL PREFER. MENT. Negro Voters in California Determined to have Representation at Dear Sir: In the past four years the colored population of the state of California has increased 200 percent. The influx of our people from the South and Southwest, which began with the great movement which preceded our entering the war, resulted in a great multiplication of our numbers in California. In the district about Vallejo, where formerly a scant dozen Negroes were employed, thousands of our Race now find employment and are permanently located with their families. The stewardess situation in San Francisco bay effected an opening up of this line of work to our Race, and more than a thousand Race men are now engaged in this work for the first time. This is true throughout the state generally. In Los Angeles county during the last four years more than 500 homes have been sold to new-comers who have determined to build anew for themselves in this land of opportunity. In Imperial Valley a great part of the labor necessary to the planting and harvesting of the corn and cotton crops is performed by the new comers of our Race. California has twenty six votes in the Republican Convention. The time is now at hand when the Negroes of this state should have recognition. California is considered a pivotal state, and the Republican party has had the benefit of the votes of our Race men not only in this state but in the states from whence they came. The eyes of the country are now turned toward California, and the Negroes in California are thoroughly aroused to the situation. Inasmuch as the Negroes are only asking for one delegate out of 28, urged by their loyalty to the party and by their unswerving devotion to the Government during the war, the fact that they sent more than their percent of men in numbers to the front and extended a helping hand to the Government in every locality, thus saving the Government the anxiety and annoyance that many Americans caused for reason of their lukewarmness in patriotism, the conscience of the Negro is stirred as never before in this country. Throughout the state there is no better known man in California of our Race than Attorney W. O. Tyler. For the past eight years the attenancy for the African Methodist Episcopal church of the state of California, he has wide and extensive acquaintance in all the places where our people live in this state. Attorney Tyler is a delegate to the General Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal church which convenes in St. Louis the 3rd day of May. He has been invited to address the people of our Race in Denver, Wichita, Topeka, Kansas City, Kansas, Nassau City. San Diego, San LARGEST AND LOS ANGELES ent in Mo, St. Louis, Chicago and New York. Those of us who know him feel that seldom, if ever, have the colored people offered to their country the services of a man whose temperament, character and ability were so happily united to make him truly representative of us all. For this reason on his many friends are urging the Republicans of this State, to put his name upon the ticket as one of the Republican Delegates to the National Convention which convenes in Chicago, June 8th. Attorney Tyler already has the endorsement of the Republican Protective League of Los Angeles; of the California Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church; and nearly all of the Race leaders and Ministers throughout the State. Practically every minister of our Race in Los Angeles, California, and of which number there are more than thirty, favor his candidacy. Many of our white friends with whom I have talked on this subject, are in accord with our idea and think with us, that we should have a representative at the National Convention, and that Attorney Tyler should be our representative. Attorney Tyler will deliver the opening address in the Coliseum at St. Louis to our General Conference before 20,000 people. His subject will be "The Negroes West of the Mississippi." The trouble with the Negro in this country has been that we have not had the opportunity to tell the white people in duly constituted assemblies, our position in matters of State and National Government. We are satisfied that if Attorney Tyler were in the National Convention at Chicago, this country would hear from him in unmistakable terms, the thought and feeling of our Race. What are you going to do about it? We beg that you speak to everyone you meet and urge the candidacy of Attorney Tyler as delegate to the National Republican Convention; I am HEAR MRS. MARY B. TALBERT, SUNDAY EVENING, 7 O'CLOCK AT SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH, 740 MAPLE AVENUE. TO MOTHER. A poem contributed by the renowned White Eagle of Wyoming, whose writings have been featured by the big magazines and dallies of the country; he is a Sioux Indian and bears letters from the Governor of Wyoming, who designates him as one of Wyoming's foremost citizens. White Feather evinces a great interest in the progress of the colored people and professes a strong friendship for them: SINCE MOTHER WENT AWAY. By White Eagle of Wyoming. I have my friends, food, clothes—and yet Both of my eyes with tears are wet, And have been so most every day Since my good mother went away. Our cabin was poor, our clothes were But with my mother, 'twas enough; With sight of her to start the day All labor seemed to me but play. "You are my baby boy" she said, Proudly lifting her gray head. "God will have care for you, my son. When your mother is dead and gone. Grow up a man—you are the Lord's," That was mother, her very words. And it seems to me hardly fair That she is not now with me here— Not to see, each day, her face, Not to have her about the place. The table seems so lone and bare Without my mother sitting there In her old accustomed place, Breaking bread and saying grace. But maybe, Lord, you thought it best THE OLDEST THE BEST ES, CALIFORNIA, SATURD Relig REV. J. R. RANGOM, D. D. STRONG FACTOR IN ETHICOPRIC RACE AT COMING GENERAL CONFERENCE OF THE A. M. B. CONVENTION, ENDORSED BY THE MASSES OF LAYMEN AND PREACHERS. The writer has known J. R. Ransom for many years, and we can safely say no man who knows Dr. Ransom for many years, and can safely give him a strong and hearty support for this position. He is the people's man who indeed will measure up to serve in this high position for the very best interests of the humblest to the most exalted. His friends are legion and throughout the country they are going to give him a strong support. His support is from all over the country, north and south, and especially in the west and northwest he should receive a united support. Among the strong supporters are the delegates throughout this 5th Episcopal district. For more than a quarter of a century he has stood in the forefront for Western University. He is familiarly known as the friend of education, and as such stands in the gateway pleading for state and private contribution, endowments and appropriations that our church and secular schools may attain. His other plans of Christian development. As a platform speaker he has long been recognized for his magnetism and forceful eloquence, and having been for thirty years and more a leader in the affairs of state of the commonwealth of Kansas. He has fought nobly every inch of the way for every right and immunity to be granted members of his Race that are granted other American citizens. His counsel is sought and his advice taken by the Republican party in the west. Whether as a debater, an orator, a pulptieter or a leader, he immediately secures the admiration of those who hear him or come into contact with To leave this aching in my breast; Maybe it turned my thoughts to you, Maybe it made my heart more true Because You came to take away My mother on that dismal day. You must have seen her lot was hard That off she had not true regard. And so you knew, my Lord, 'twas best To take her from this world's unrest Safely up to Your Throne of Gold. Where none grow faint or sick or cold. Ah, yes, I know, I know she will. Be safe with You—and yet I still Dread the lone days, the nights so block black. And wish I had my mother back. DRAWS BIN HOUSE NATIONAL PRESIDENT OF WO- MEN'S CLUBS DRAWS BIG HOUSE—MAKES MEMOR- ABLE ADDRESS. Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, the National President of Negro Women's Clubs visit under the auspices of the local Federation, Southern Division, was a grand and big success. She delivered a wonderful and thrilling message and Mrs. Slaughter and the ladies are to be congratulated upon the same. The big A. M. E. Church was filled for the occasion on last Monday evening. Mrs. Talbert will speak at Pas- dens, Sunday A. M., at the First A. M. E. Church; 7 P. M. at the B. Y. P. U. of the Second Baptist Church, 740 Maple Ave. and at 8 P. M. for Rev. Ward at 5th and Towne Ave. Causes. MAMMOTH MASS MEETING. At Sojourner Truth Home, The Allensworth Literary and Industrial and the Friday Morning Clubs acted as hostesses at the Mass Meeting for their National President, Mrs. Mary B. Talbert of Buffalo, N. Y. The Club pooms were filled to their utmost capacity to hear this wonderful woman with a burning message The program follows: Singing. Club Song; Vocal Duett, "Absent," Miss Velma and Master Johnnie Wood; Piano Selection, Miss Christian; Mrs Sunshine Miller, Pres. of the Allensworth Club then presented Mrs. S. C. Cole who in a few well chosen remarks introduced the speaker. Mrs Talbert opened her remarks by telling the audience she has been given the credit of being the mother of Mrs. Cole's daughter, Florence Cole-Talbert as they both appeared on the same program, Mrs. Florence Talbert and Miss Barah M. Talbert, the President's daughter who is a very fine pianist. If it were possible Mrs. Talbert's address was even more brilliant than on Monday night and with a great inspiration to the women; all were sorry when she took her seat. We shall never forget the Eagle story. Mrs. Miller then presented Mrs. Lulu Slaughter, Stafe President, who was full of fire and inspiration from her contact with her superior officer; she paid a beautiful tribute to her in glowing words. Mrs. Abernathy in behalf of the Allensworth and Friday Morning Clubs presented Mrs. Talbert with a beautiful bouquet of flowers. Mrs. Viola Hubbard sang "Big Lady Moon" by Coleridge Taylor. Mrs. Thomas in behalf of the Sojourner Truth Club in a few words to the point presented the President with a lovely basket of Violets and Pansises. Mrs. Talbert in response said she would send them to her Grand-daughter. Mrs. Slaughter then asked for a collection for the reconstruction of the Douglas Home in whose interest Mrs. Talbert is traveling; $15.00 was lifted. Mrs. Talbot leaves the city Monday after her trip to Bakersfield; Mrs. Thos. Cole will accompany her to Bakersfield. California women, California flowers, California homes, have made a great impression on our National President and we hope to have her return to stay. THE NEW NEGRO AND SOME SUNSHINE PLEASE! The impending Presidential Campaign is taking color. Never has a Campaign been of such an important complexion to the Negro all over the United States since Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation. There are candidates springing up like mushrooms and the only planks they have adopted in their platform, have been based on the economic questions of European province. The Negro, the greatest asset to the economical and industrial welfare of North America, has not been mentioned once. Now that we have contributed over 2,000,000 Dollars to help finance the campaigns of the World War and sent 4,000,000 souls to battle for the protection of our government let us have a little sunshine NOW. Let California contribute her assistance by sending fearless representatives into the field to push the case of her black citizens. The Negro in general is a farce when it comes to representing poli- tically his colored constituency and unless California speaks a real man, who with the courage of his conviction, in man enough to stand out and battle for his people, the same conditions will eventually become their lot, that dominates the Southern States. Skepticism unfortunately has been our lot, but the New Negro is not the sinister coward of yesterday and hence even the phatterer of the earth is not going to support any man just simply because he is a Negro. The World War out of which we thought and confidently believed would spring forth the much tauted World Democracy; that would be enjoyed by the rich and the poor; the black and white; the employee and employer; has been proven to be a Mirage, whose disappearance was influenced by the morning sun; so let us buckle our political sabers to our loins, and if the Negro of yesterday is a candidate, cannot offer us more than they have in the past—let us find a candidate in the ranks of the New Negro and see if in regeneration he is tempered with the virility and temerity that will be tantamount to the victuses of the present day. Of course we cannot find the perfect candidate. To even look for Perfection is an absurdity but in as much as we all have our faults, failings and misgivings, let us merit by past experiences and find some solution to the social and civic problems that so seriously affect our government. No selfappointed leaders, nor those who are hand-picked by the White man will do—but through the proof of capacity for responsibility shall the leaders rise, from the ranks of fellow citizens. "FRIENDSHIP LOST" DEDICATED TO J. W. COLEMAN (By Lawrence C. Tatum) I Sad as it seems in the hour of woe we walk alone. 'Neath heavy burdens we fight the foe.—O. solemn moan! Mute. Aye as a lamb is dumb before its shearer we bravely stand. Till all is past and we are nearer the Heavenly Strand. II. Ah what is friendship but a name to mortals given. Such a sacred tie, who can profane this gift of heaven. Lo. I have drunk deep of the cup.— O fading bliss! Now I disdain—no more I'll sup.— sad, sad remiss! III. No more within these narrow walls do voices roar. No more come familiar echo calls of friends galore. A heritage seems this cloistered spot, what desolation. Within this wilderness drear forgot lonely habitation. IV. I drank with pleasure from the glass alas, a sot. Ah, fools we be who quoff the draught of fading joys But ah, there is a sacred shrine of friendship sweet Where joys supernal are ever mine,— no sorrows greet. Nor sad hours come when friends Nor sad hours come when friends forget a friend in need. But all look heavenward there's no neglect but a friend indeed. VI. O frightful apparition, scepter, ghost, O dire illusion! Deceiver, of deception born thy most is base intrusion. Straight at the heart thy blow is dealt no dost thy aim. E'er miss its deftimed mark.—Tis felt what slinging pain! (Continued on Page Eight) THE AUTHOR OF CHRIST IS A COLORED MAN,' IS HERE. He Gives Biblical Proof That Christ was a Black Man By Blood. Rev. James M. Webb of Seattle, Washington, formerly of Chicago. Ill., the well-known Race lecturer and Author arived in Los Angeles this week. The Rev. Webb, author of three books which concern the race very much, namely "Jesus was Born our of a Black Tribe;" "A Black Man Will be the Coming Universal King;" "The Black Man was the Father of Civilization." The contents of these books are proven by Biblical History. Out of the books the Rev. Webb has created pictures in stereoptican views, which views will be turned into moving pictures here in Los Angeles as Los Angeles is the Moving Picture plant of the world. And, again, the city has enough of our people to select from for all of the characters cast that the Reverend gentleman will need. The Webb will show these pictures, as they are now in some of the Churches at once—"Moses found and named by a Colored woman on the River Nile." That is a wonderful picture shown on the screen. The picture shows the Black man and woman's part in the Bible, from the leading of Moses by a colored woman and the black man carrying the cross up Mount Calvary. It is to be remembered that the Rev. Webb was in Los Angeles during the Fall of 1911 but now he is bringing to us much of his increased work. All is honor to the Colored race and shows "who is who" in the Bible. So, watch the paper for early date and place to see Rev Webb's pictures. The followin g is a paragraph from the Seattle Daily Post Intelligence: "Elder Jas. M. Webb, in his book, describes the Black man as the father of all civilization. He takes the Bible to show that the fathers of the Church and all the great leaders, even the greatest one was black. "Mr. Webb's work is able and thoughtful, whether the Anglo-Saxon believes him or not. Mr. Webb writes what he believes to be true about his race and their place in Biblical History." SUCCESSFUL OPENING The opening of the Pacific Coast Industrial Federation fast Monday evening at their offices, $24 Central Avenue was a grand success and in our next issue we will give a detailed report of same, including the big movement which is its first business venture for a Hand Laundry Company, capitalized at $20,000.00 You will surely miss a treat if you fail to see and hear Mr. Webb King, Roxall Harris and the hevy of beauties at the Grand Dramatic Musical Recital, February 21st at New Hope Baptist Church.

The past Sunday was well enjoyed by the members and friends of Bethel Sunday School was well attended and had an interesting session. Text Rom. 10:8-9. "The Word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth and in thy heart." That is the word of faith which we preach. The message was truly helpful and inspiring. He jointy set forth the necessity for us to accept and adhere to the divine Word, and we will receive the many blessings that He has in his inexhaustable storehouse. At 6 p. m. the B. Y. B. U. had a profitable and interesting session. We were very much elated at this service to have Elder E. W. Butler and wife of Shreaveport, L. A. At 8 p. m. the pastor brought to us another powerful sermon. Text. Isaiah 44:22. The Holy Spirit accompanied this message with much power. Salvation was made so plain that the most feeble mind need not err. After the sermon we listened to a beautiful song, "I Prayed Outside the Gate," by Mrs. Pauline B. Daniel, which thrilled the whole congregation.¹ The Revival is still going on. Elder W. E. Harris, evangelist, is preaching. Come and hear him and get right with God. All are invited to all the services. FIRST A. M. E. CURCH— Rev. A. M. Ward, Minister The pastor will occupy his pulpit in the First A. M. E. church Sunday morning, Feb. 22nd, at 11:00 o'clock, and will preach "A Religion of Gladness." At 7:30 o'clock in the evening Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, President of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs, who delighted the great audience in her thrilling story in lecturerecital on last Monday night, will deliver her farewell lecture for the city of Los Angeles. Mrs. Talbert is one of the forty members of the National Board of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and is killing two birds, as it were, with one stone in this work of uplift among her people. All people are invited to come and worship with us. The 1660th ansiversary of Bishop Richard Allen, founder and first bishop of the African M. E. church was fittingly observed in the First A. M. E. church on last Sunday. The pastor occupied his pupit in the morning, when nine new members were added to the church, and in the evening the Allen Christian Endeavor Society, E. G. Fletcher, President, furnished a splendid program. Those taking part were Miss Isidor Stewart, Mr. Harold Wilson, Mrs. Lydia Smith Ward, Mrs. Genevieve Fletcher, Mr. J. W. Brumfield and Miss Catherine Allen. The Choirs furnished excellent music under the direction of Choir master-organist, Elmer C. Bartlett. The Senior and Celestial Choirs vied with each other in splendid renditions. The auditors were deeply touched by the singing of a plantation melody led by Bro. Emanuel P. Hall. Mrs. Mary B. Talbert addressed a large and interested audience of women at the regular meeting of the Sarah Allen Woman's Mitte Missionary Society of the First A. M. E. church at the residence of Mrs. E. P. Clarkson and Mrs. Paul Williams in East 21st street on Tuesday. Four new members were added to the Society and a good meeting was enjoyed by all. Refreshments were served and the Society voted its thanks to the hostesses. One hundred new members and $2500 is the slogan for the Easter Drive launched in the First A. M. E. church by the pastor, and he is asking each member to do his bit. Mrs. Wesley Lyons, of Denver, Colo., former President of the Shorter Chapel Sewing Circle, was the ghost of Rev. and Mrs. A. Milton Ward, Thursday, Feb. 15. Mrs. Lyons was enroute home from a stay of four months in San Diego, with her Turkeys, Chickens, Ducks, Geese and Rabbits Fresh Fish Every Day.

At 21 o'clock the pastor filled the pulpit and preached from lvth chapter of Acts and 24th verse. At 2:30 p. m. the instaliation of the pastor was held and was wel attend- ed. The church was filled with visit- ing friends and members. All ou pro- grum responded with but few excep- tions. Rev. P. W. Hutchinson of the Mt, Olivet Baptist church preached the installation sermon, his text be- ing from Acts 20:28, “Take heed therefore unto yourselves and to all the flock, over which the Holy Ghost has. made you overseers, to feed the Church of God which He has pur- chased with His own bluod.” The speaker seemed at his best and preached a powerful, soul-stirring sermon. Every hgart seemed touched Rev. A. Lively, pastor. of the New Hope Baptist ehureh, of Los Angeles, delivered the charge in most eloquent and befitting and touching words to the new installed pastor. The gervices as a whole were inter- esting from start tu finish. At the evening service the pastor again occupied the pulpit and through the exercises of the after- phoon seemed just fitted for the ser- vices for the evening. His text was taken from Amos 6:1.” The Choir was at its best and ren- dered wonderful service all day. ©n Monday evening a grand banquet was served tn the reception hall for the benefit of the church. We highly appreciate the visitors that worshipped with us and we er-' tend to you a cordial welcome.

Our esteemed contemporary the New Age seems to be on the verge of "Hooverizing," but not for us, if you please, we got too much Hoover during the war. The Lincoln Club movement at Chicago from all reports was a huge success and starts out under favorable auspices indeed to accomplish much along the lines of political effort. In our next issue we will give a detailed report of the great meeting, the report of which reaches us too late for this issue. The great interest manifested at the opening drive for the 1920 Campaign on last Tuesday evening, indeed is encouraging to the utmost. Organization was the word and the determination to thoroughly organize in both the city, county and state is a wise step and cannot help but bring about better results in the future than has ever been the case in the past. At a hearing before the Police Commission on last Tuesday in which one of the officers of our police force was on trial, the evidence disclosed the fact that the officer had deserted his beat way over time to visit a widow woman on some other beat; failing to make a satisfactory explanation the Police Board acquiesced in the Chief's order of the dismissal of the officer. One of the Commissioners it is alleged made the remarks that while it might be possible the widow needed the officer's protection, the officer himself should have known he was duty bound to confine his activities to his own back yard. MRS. MARY B. TALBERT RINGS TRUE. The visit of the militant Mrs. Talbert was both refreshing and invigorating to the people of this section. Her thrilling message from overseas was indeed the actual conditions without veneering. But the strong point in the career of this wonderful woman is the fact that she is not only a pleasing and brilliant talker, but stands out in bold relief as a woman who does things. We can never forget or overlook the fact of her wonderful success as the leader of the movement which saved for the race the Douglas Home at Washington, this feat was accomplished after many attempts by illustrious characters of masculine persuasion; even the mighty Booker T. Washington had failed in this effort. And numerous other demonstrations have been made of this great woman's usefulness. Her wonderful administration of the Federation of Women's Clubs has been the marvel of the age. The Eagle appreciates the great service of this great woman and we indeed welcome her to our midst and appreciate beyond expression her great service to the people. POLITICAL RECOGNITION Last issue we stated plainly the requisites for racial recognition from the standpoint of the people. We can freely indeed speak for the people because we are a part of them, any time roll call is order we answer "Present!" Their trials are our trials, their hardships are our trials. Their tears are our tears in spirit and in fact we ```markdown ``` are with them unto the end We are no convert we are a veteran in the people cause and surely can we qualify to speak for them, and speaking for them, we say to the aspirants for leadership, to qualify, you must come up from the ranks or you will be both repudiated as well as humiliated. Therefore be careful what you do and consider what you say unless you can truly subscribe to the conditions we have named. It must be admitted that with all our leaders of the past none of them have led; if so we have no lasting evidence of the fact. Our leaders have feathered their very own nest and their sought seclusion and repose and are both unheard of or forgotten, therefore the people have come to the conclusion that they will stand for no leadership which cannot produce results. If we are to elect men for public office we must just the same as any other group of the electorate have due and timely recognition. We have not received this recognition in the past but shall most surely contend for it in the future. Take the last gubernatorial election the colored voters lined up for Stephens in Southern California to a man, they considered him their one best bet and he won, though hard pressed he was by Mayor Rolph. From his attitude before his nomination when he freely mingled at our gatherings, spoke words of encouragement, we had an abiding faith and fond expectation that Gov. Stephens would be one Governor who would render due and timely recognition to all: time passed on, no recognition came and finally we had to give up in despair when the Realty Board was organized outside of Civil Service and there was no recognition coming we realized we had always hoped against hope. No, we want leaders who will go to the front for the people (not themselves) understand us? for the people. The great Republican gathering on last Tuesday night marks a new era along the line of political effloft which means that the people will have a voice in their political destiny. Tuesday night's meeting reminded the people of the mid-campaign times. It looks like the woods will be full of candidates for the Board of Supervisors as well as for the Assembly and Senate in the various districts. With the New Age support- ing Hoover we have at least one instance of sticking to the bitter end with the powers that am. The big State Conference which is now being planned will be the biggest political effort ever put forth by the col-ored people. Spring St.; Phone Pico 1138.

INSURANCE EXPERT LOCATES HERE. Los Angeles is destined to take a foremost place in the Negro business of this country, is pointed to by former Lieutenant O. Houston, late statistical officer of the 317th Ammunition Train, 92nd Division. While in the United States and overseas Lieut. Houston's services proved invaluable in handling the Government's War Risk Insurance. Los Angeles is indeed fortunate in securing this young and progressive business man. It is sad that one of our Race has had the opportunity of learning the insurance business from every angle as Mr. Houston. Specializing in organization and management at the University of California and later taking a course of modern business from the Alexander Hamilton Institute of New York, he had the opportunity of learning the inside of the fire insurance business by working for the Board of Fire Underwriters of the Pacific in San Francisco. The Board governs and controls all of the large fire insurance companies on the Pacific Coast. He has also been associated with Edward Brown & Sons and E. W. Potter & Sons, general agents representing several of the largest insurance companies in the United State. Mr. Houston has taken the agency of the National Life Insurance Company of the U. S. A. Home office, Chicago, Ill. It is one of the largest companies in the country and noted for its fair treatment to colored policy holders. He has complete charge of writing and adjusting all claims. He is now ready to write a full line of sick and accident policies for railroad employees, industrial employees, business men, business women, housewives, etc. Call, write or phone today for information.

America lost a precious jewel, when her Colonel passed away. A jewel that never tarnished, nor turned back the other way One that sparkled with purty, that was genuine through and through One that was cherished by the nation and envied by a jealous few No diamond was its equal, for it was far too cheap To have been placed besides this precious jewel that now rests in sleep And the Kimberly mines were barren, when it came to purity when it came to purity And the Tiffany jeweler's highest stock, lacked a surety It was guaranteed for over sixty years and it held its very own Till that fatal day it was taken away while left all alone. That jewel was Theodore Roosevelt, that lies now beneath the Sod. That fate has stolen from the earth that now rests with God. —VIRGINIA A. PETERSON 1914 Bay Street. Mr. J. H.
