Members of the Colored group of Los Angeles should certainly appreciate the fact that at last there will be throws upon the moving picture outside of this city a production by the very own. Noah D. Thompson has written a thriller, and Mr. Frank Egan, a white theatrical manager and producer of many years' experience, has engaged thirty-five of the most gifted Colored young people of this city and is having them trained under a brilliant and nationally known stage director, Walker Theater on Grand Avenue near 75th street, has been leased and announcement made to the public, both white and Colored, that these actors and actresses will be featured in a Negro play, "Africanus." Mr. Egan is spending over five thousand dollars in staging this production. The very last word in secrecive effects and artistic lighting will be used. The scenes will include an elaborate street scene in a Southern town, an interior in a Colored New York residence, and a gorgeous futuristic representation of the city. The play will be accompanied by music especially written for this production by one of the greatest Negro composers of the day, and is built on an African scale. Costumes, stage settings, music—the entire production, will be one of the most splendidly artistic theatrical offerings that our Log Angeles public, white or Colored, has ever witnessed. A great number of people have prepared artistically and socially, have purchased tickets for this production. But above all, Mr. Egan wishes the Colored people of this city to show their appreciation for what he is doing for them; for the confidence THOUSANCS PAY LAST TRIBUTE TO MR. SHORES THOUSANCS PAY LAST TRIBUTE TO MR. SHORES The high esteem in which William H. Shores, California pioneer resident, was held by the people was demonstrated last Tuesday afternoon at the First African Methodist Episcopal church when more than two thousand persons entered or seeked admittance to the great church building in order that they might in that last service say, Amen at "life's setting." in loving memory, of William H. Shores, known by many of his friends as "Dad," who because of his friendly attitude towards all people at all times had ingratiated his life in their fondest affection. Long before the church doors were thrown wide, a concourse of anxious persons waited to enter, and enslaved Elmer C. Bartlett took his pen at the organ every pew was taken After the funeral procession had entered, the choir, of which Mr. Shores was a consistent member, sang "Scrunt of God, Well Done." Father W. T. Cleghorn of St. Philips Episcopal church offered a very touching prayer; Rev. J. C. Anderson of, St. Philips Chapel C. M. E. church read the Scripture. Rev. Manuel Hall was too tearful, "do I have any ability to be one of Mr. Shores" favorite songs, "Lord, Lead Me On to Higher Ground," and Mr. Bertram Tucker, for ten years associated with Mr. Shores at the Security Trust, and had to the best of his ability held after which Rev. A. M. Ward, pastor of the church, took his text from Gen. 47:9, and briefly but beautifully painted a word picture of a life that had sojourned from the land of his birth; but wherever he had gone had to the best of his ability held true the true promise of a gentle moment centering first of all his interest around his Family circle and secondly, on the care and attention he could give his position at the Security Bank William H. Shores aside from being a lovable character was one of the most practical demonstrations of what it takes to be a success in life. William H. Shores was an employee of the Security and Trust Savings Bank. You had but to meet him to know that he was interested all the way. Sincerely did he be interested was the greatest marketing institution he the entire country, and even though he was the most brilliantly educated man in his group in this section, he also seemed in making you feel that the security was the only secure way. He highly esteemed was Mr. Beysby by the Bank of Nichols that chose by President Sartori, who insisted the financial an measures must form to be published in he is showing in their talent and ability—confidence not expressed merely in flowery phrases but backed by more than five thousand dollars of his money. If they pack the Walker Theater on Monday night, Jan. 23. Mr. Egan will lease that Theater for five years and make a permanent and national institution of this dramatic company and give permanent employment to Colored artists and musicians. Mr. Egan is giving this production the widest possible publicity thru is staking his name and reputation is staking his name and reputation on its success, but he feels that there is a part for each Race man to do for himself. Come to the Walker Theater on Monday night, Jan. 23rd. See that your friends, white and Colored, are there also. Support your Race in the most important arena and give our theater-going public a high class production. Show the white people, who will assuredly be out in force, that we as a Race appreciate a play which is something besides black-face minstrelsy and slap-stick comedy; that while we have a sense of humor, we can appreciate serious art as well. In order that there be no misunderstanding at the last minute, the management wishes to announce that the tickets sent out by mail to promote as a unique way of advertising them is not difficult to you to the Theater. You may buy your tickets at the Walker Theater, Grand Ave. 7th street. Not only, Mr. Egan but the public by our attitude should be made to realize that first of all we highly appreciate the effort on the part of Mrs. Thompson, the author, who is attempting to open a door by which Negro artists may enter the field of reality in order that they may figure with other groups in the greatest educational understudy of today. RESOLUTIONS IN MEMORY OF WILLIAM H. SHORES. Wm. H. Shores, the oldest employee in time of service of the Security Trust and Savings Bank, Los Angeles, passed away on Friday, January 13th, 1922. Entering the employ of the bank on the day it first opened, February 11, 1889, he remained continuously in its employment until his death. His record with the bank during his thirty-three years of service was without interruption. He placed his duties conscientiously, faithfully with ability, and to the entire satisfaction of the officers of the bank. Numerous positions of trust were given him by the bank because of the reliance placed upon his absolute integrity. To his credit it is said that his record shows that this confidence was well founded. He had a happy, cheerful disposition and he found his greatest pleasure in helping his associates in the performance of their duties, and helped them to achieve the esteem but the affection of those with whom he was associated. His association of many years' standing with the president and other senior officers of the bank was of a direct and almost personal nature, and the unique position which he occupied by reason of his contact with them cannot be filled. Now, therefore be it Resolved, By the Board of Directors of the Security Trust and Savings Bank, in meeting assembled, that in the death of William H. Shores this Bank has lost a faithful, conscientious, respected and highly valued employee; that his loss is keenly felt by the directors, the officers, the employees, and the officers of this bank, well as the large number of the general public with whom he came in contact in the discharge of his duties. Resolved further, That the Board of Directors of this bank hereby extends to his widow and theother members of his family its sincere sympathy because of the loss which caused of a considerate and loving husband and a respected and affectionate father; it is the hope of this Board that the family may in some measure be comforted by the memory of the many admirable qualities which earned the deceased to family, friends and acquaintances alike. Be it further Resolved, That a copy of these Resolutions upon the Minutes of the Board of Directors of this bank, and that a suitably engrossed copy be forwarded to the family of the deceased: LOS ANGELES WILL BE HOST TO THE BAPTISTS Great National Body Convenes Here Next September. The fifty thousand who are here are wearing fifty thousand pairs of shoes. That many pairs of shoes are probably on their feet at this very moment. And most of them have more than one pair of shoes. They have dress shoes, working shoes, high shoes, and low shoes, men's shoes and women's shoes, children's shoes and babies' shoes, rubber shoes, and rubber boots. I suppose that we are spending a million dollars a year for shoes. If all the Negroes in the city bought their shoes at some one store for a single dollar, we would not have favored would in this single year enjoy a competence ranging from a hundred thousand to a quarter of a million dollars. In one year he would be a very wealthy man. If some one merchant, could secure one-tenth of this trade at the present time, he should come to the close of the year with the feeling that his labors had not been in vain, and that he had been just as popular to buy shoes from the Colored merchant as it now is for us to call in the Colored undertaker. A few years ago we did not know of such a person as a Colored undertaker. Now we are intensely proud of him, and he gives us just what we need, with whose service we then thought we were not able to dispense. It would seem to me that there are tremendous possibilities in the laundry because they were cheaper than been in a city of the central west about two years ago. I decided to take my bundle to the Chinese laundry because they were cheaper than the other. When I went into the LOS ANGELES WI HOST Great National Here Next As a member of the Executive Board of the National Baptist Convention, U.S.A., Moderator of the Western Baptist Association, chairman of the local Convention Committee, member of the transportation commission of the National Baptist Convention, and as one responsible for the coming of the Convention, I dog to give out the following official information for the benefit of all persons interested in the coming of the Convention in 1922, to wit: In view of the fact that an agitation, east and w est, was launched to have the National Convention through the Executive Board change the place of meeting to 1922, which agitation gained momentum as it reached the ears of those present in the local disturbance west of the Rocky Mountains, fearing that the Board in session at Nashville, Tenn., would attempt to oversteep its bounds and change the meeting place, which everyone familiar with the power of that Board known to be absurd; I as the acknowledged representative of the Convention, again declare to you the importance of the role of the President of the Convention, and Prof. R. R. Hudson, secretary, "There will be no change in the place of meeting unless Divinity so decrees." "Labor to make the session a success. I shall make an official visit to your city some time in the early spring." Now, good brethren, let us settle down to sober things and each man work for the good of the group and the community of the city at your head. I hope that the officers of the Convention and others will not again be stormed by inquiries of the curious respecting the coming of the Convention." "Ask chickey-little if the sky is falling" or ask the Nile the number of its bubbles. A meeting of the local committee will be called soon. You will receive notice from the Rev. L. B. Brown, secretary of local committees. R. N. Holt, chairman local committees. The action of the recent meeting of the National Baptist Convention, has been confirmed by the action of the National Executive Committee, and it is now an assured fact that the next annual National Convention will convene in this city during the month of September 1922. 25008 Visitors Expected The annual meet of the Baptist hosts usually draws from 40 to 50, 000 people and it is estimated Los Angeles will draw at least 50 percent of the usual attendance. It will therefore be discerned that the people of this city must wake up to a realization of the great responsibility that is upon them, and truly live up to the reputation of the ability of the people of this city to put over big things. All People Should Rally. The people of all denominations should, and doubtless will join in to room the genial Chinaman received my package with a smile. When I went back for my package he received my money with a broader smile. But when Rooked back into his establishment I saw that Colored people were doing the work, thus contributing their brain and brawn to pressure the cash register to enjoy the profits of the business. (Not for one moment did I blame the Chinaman; nor did I blame the Colored employees who were working there. They were all trying to earn an honest dollar. But what I wondered was why did the Colored people, who constituted 90 per cent of the population of that section go to sleep on dry and become employers of labor, and benefactors of humanity and builders for their Race. There is a city not so far away, in one of whose banks the report is, that Negroes have a million dollars on deposit. What if one-tenth of this million withdrew form savings accounts and entered careful and brotherly corporations. What if a thousand in business should possess these successful ones? And what if the Race came suddenly to see the latent possibilities of self-help and the good for developing Race loyalty without having it forced upon us? I wonder how many business enterprise could be capitalized with that hundred thousand dollars; and brotherly corporations with a hundred thousand dollars left to rent. Depositors' interest lat 4 per cent. One whole year for one dollar to earn four cents. Could not some of us do better? LL BE TO THE BAPTISTS Body Convenes September. make the entertainment of this body a mighty success. It means much to Los Angeles and more to the race, here on these Western shores to have this great body to meet in our midst. Therefore it should be a task of joy to set about the task which is before us. All peoples, all religions, all creeds and those who do not adhere to any at all must join in to help this great movement. We are aware of the fact that there are those who will say it, "can't be done" but all that we must know is, that it WILL be done. If Topeka Kansas with a black population of less than 10,000 could cover itself with glory, in the entertainment of the last K. P. Encoument, which drew 40,000 people, Los Angeles with its boast of 30,000 people must go over the top with a vengeance. (BY W. J. Winston.) The survey of the State of California shows that there are 95,592 illiterate Americans, that means those abo-we the years of ten, who can neither read nor write; 69,768 are whites of foreign birth; 6,747 are native born; 1,579 are Negroes, and 15,494 are classed as other illiterates, mostly Japanese. The per cent of illiterates among the Negroes is small, and yet it could be greatly reduced. One thing, it goes to show that prejudice is a matter of color and not of lack of renaissance. Let Mrs. Smits, who has all of the class that education, character, and refinement gives, but who is an American Negro, enter some place of public entertainment, immediate affection, and chill, and she is made aware of the fact that her presence is not desired. But Mrs. _____ her of the foreign name, without even the basic three Rs. of her own country, enter and she is shown every courtesy. But it is a glorious feeling, 94,013 illiterates of all classes, 1,378 Negroes. Work out your own per cent. I am too busy. A new use has been found for the destructive submarine: bootlegging. That is a case of resuscitating "John Bellevue" and it will take the intensity of the "whisky catch-will be placed in the pirate class and will be placed in the pirate class and destroyed by death bombs. Come high or come low, Mr. Man is going to have his little shot of the staff that cheer, and would be well to suggest the calling of another conference after the Disarmament Conference closes to device some more of the Griswolds and the beheaded Grizzly and no押 may pay their bill callows under the ban of rebellion. OOR It is said that the Thibetans, that strange people way up in the Himalayas mountains, cut up their dead into strips and fed the flesh to the birds. Huh! That's nothing; we know of a place right over on this side of the ocean where they don't wait until they die a natural death, but they burn them alive, the charred bones home for suvivors. Maybe those Thibetans know some things, but they don't know it all. We invite them to come over and learn the civilized way. Are there any good Negroes? Don't look awkward, because that what happened to me when I was told that the question was answered in the negative by a police official of San Francisco. A certain official was continually raiding a cafe operated by the police, and was sued for an injunction restraining the police from interfering with his business. It is alleged that when the said officer was questioned as to his authority for raiding the cafe that he replied, "I warned the good white people to keep away from there; that it was no place for them, that I saw no law enforcement asked if he had warned the good Colored people to also keep away from the cafe, he answered, "No"; and when questioned as to why he did not also warn the good Colored people, his answer was that "he did not know." Of course a policeman, even though he be a captain, is only impressed by his environments. But he was also asked to captain to see white patronage in a Negro place of entertainment. Of course the Judge warned him that he had overstepped his authority for forbidding anyone to enter a place for public entertainment, as long as there was no infringement on the law, so they will change the officer, so that he can into district where the law-abiding Race people reside. From the way that ex-Congressman Kent is going after Hiram John about his Disarmament Conference criticisms; that he will also go after the Senator toga. After all is said and done it does seem that our senior Senator is losing his grip on constructive ideas and fostering the habit of continual fault finding. Speaking of politics, what has become of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Measure; is that also to become the football of politics? Of course we know that the G. O P. is very anxious about the elections this fall and they also realize the fact that the Negro vote is very much disgruntled and that unrest is pronounced. York very recently gave forecast of the may happen in a political way. I have always contended that the party would hold the Dyer Measure over the heads of the Race voter in order to keep them into line. But they are reckoning wrong, for if that measure is not passed, and that soon, by the splendid majority, now in Congress, no degree of explanation suffice to keep the Race voter safe, and to fool him; he may as well die of the "fever as the aque." If the Republican party breaks faith with the Negro voter now, it will be "God bless you, my child" when the Ideas of November in 1924 fall. Seventy-five years ago Commodore Perry anchored two sloops in the Bay of Yedo. There was great consternation among the Japanese. They could, not guess, the meaning; to them the portent was ominous. They fled to the hills in terror, carrying the young and infirm with them. That was 75 years ago, albeit with the life of many of today. When this happened, that no harm was to be done, they opened the gates, and their little Sampans scurried about the ships and made the bay glitter with sheen of the varl colored sail. The other day I stood on the pier and watched a mammoth vessel leave the slip; on its deck were hundreds of cheering men and women; people of all races; then I harkened back to the Capital of this nation where the powers of the world were in conference to place a limitation on vessels, and I saw the people awakened Perry 75 years ago, sitting with the powerful, dictating the policies of the earth. Swift history, that! I was asked what, to me, were the essentials of Negro leadership, Well, if I had the making, the requirements would be these: Conciliatory; without servility; friendliness and capable of wide and far view; and willing to work, coupled with pride of race ideals. A fervent and deep-seated loyalty for his country and the Constitution which governs it; and with all, a persistent, fighting faith that the spirit of America's fairness shall prevail.

AND WITH SELLING OF PASSAGE TO AFRICA ON FAKE STEAMSHIP; HELD IN $2500 BAIL. New York, Jan. 13—Hearing on charges set for Jan. 19; Federal agents insist Garvey has only two boats, both in bad condition; must save Negro morale, says A. B. B. Militant organization says sheding of adventurers and fakes will make for more effective liberation struggle; appeals to all new Negroes to keep up struggle for a free Africa and liberated Race the world over. The African Blood Mongol through his international headquarters. 2299 Seventh Avenue, New York City, today released the following news story for publication: Marcus Garvey, president of the Black Star Line, was arrested here yesterday afternoon charged with selling passage on a non-existent stairship and, of making fraudulent representations to forward sales of Black Star Line stock and A.A. of which he is president-general. The postoffice inspectors charge, too, that he used the mails to defraud in disposing of stock in the Black Star Line. Garvey was arrested at his home in a swell apartment house in West 129th street by post office inspectors and in Justice, and from there marched up Lenox avenue to the Black Star Line offices at 56 West 135th street, where several books and documents were seized by the United States agents. His portly figure wrapped in a fur-collared overcoat and an ornamental cane dangling from his arm, he was taken before Commissioning Highchief, and in $2500 bail pending a hearing on Jan. 19. A number of the officials of the Black Star Lue and "Negro World" were subpoenaed by the post office inspectors. It is also rumored that there will be a number of other arrests of Black Star officials and of men prominent in the affairs of the U. N. I. A., both in its allied corporate papers, the U. N. A. proper, and the charge that most likely be developed against certain members of the staff of the "Negro World" will be for attempting through inciting articles to inflame the ignorant minds of the more fanatic of their followers to the end of bringing about the assassination of prominent men opposed to the Garvey plan of liberating Africa by laboratory and questionable schemes. There are also rumors in the wind to the effect that Garvey has recently transferred his private bank account to the Royal Bank of Canada to its Jamaica (B. W. I.) branch. In this connection it is an interesting fact that he sent home his sister and her husband on Jan. Garvey is a native of Jamaica, B. W. Rumors have been in the air for a long time concerning his arrest, and he is said to have twice frightened in his office lately. The A. B. B. looks upon the latest developments, as the expected and logical outcome of Marcus Garvey's financial juggling and dishonest promises. We very well knew what would be the inevitable outcome of Garvey's attempts to prostitute the Liberation Movement with all sorts and manners of doubtful and questionable commercial schemes. We did our best to prepare the Race for the debacle we clearly foresaw. The Liberation Movement was the larger to the entire Liberation Movement which Garvey's schemes involved. Time and again we protested against the inconceivable stupidity of basing the Liberation Movement upon the chances of the success or failure of commercial enterprises. We affirmed, and still affirm, that no commercial enterprise is good enough to base the sacred Liberation Cause upon its chances of success or failure—and least of all, the scheme conceived as they were in its intendedance and managed by methods that have made the Race a laughing stock and challenged the attention of the Federal Government of the United States. By constructive criticism we tried to force reforms in the management of certain of these schisms because we saw that their peculiar nature had made them difficult to deal with some of our people, and to save these people from bitter disappointment and financial loss we tried our best to see that reforms were initiated and the business at least managed at a small probability of success. All to our relief. We do not believe that the cause Number Forty-Six trary. For that reason we welcome the present situation. Negroes will suffer a great loss on account of Marcus Garvey and his schemes, but the Liberation Movement will lose later. Moreover, while it is now possible to save the morale of the Liberation Movement upon which Garvey, leech-like, inflicted himself, a few years, more of Garvey prostrate, might have made this impossible. We hope that those Negroes who have been connected with the Liberation struggle, through the Gervey organization, will not desert the We hope also that this experience will sober up the Movement to the hard and fast realities of the seriousness and intensity of this great struggle. We hope that no one will be able after this to make comedy and tomofoolery of the Movement and discredit our cause. We hope that in the future no parvain will be able to fool our people and dub himself "Provisional President of Africa," "Potentate," "Count of Lagos," or what not, and with all sorts of easy money raising schemes, get rich at the expense of "poor, ignorant Negroes." To those Negroes that insist on following such fakes, we have hardly anything more to say: fanatics do want to take over the may pile up as high as a mountain—they do not perceive it. Such people people have been the goats of gamblers and adventurers since the dawn of history. To those Negroes who have enough stamina to stand, the hard realities of the struggle—those Negroes who realize that powerful enemies have to be overcome and that this involves hard, constant work not mere demagogy, tomboolery, blatant negroism, insignificant groves the A. B. B. offers a medium to unite with: to join either as individuals or as bodies. The A. B. B. stands for unity of all the truly militant forces in the Liberation struggle. It is willing to absorb or unite with any honest, best set of Negroes order to strengthen and inform the Liberation Army. Our aims. Program and Constitution will answer all other questions and utterly refute the lies that have been maliciously circulated against the A. B. B. and its leaders. The record of the A. B. B. is clean. There is no need for defence. Truth will ultimately win the day. MARCUS GARVEYS ARREST BY THE U. S. AUTHORITIES WAS CAUSED BY EX-OFFICIALS AND DISMISSED EMPLOYEES. The Universal Negro Improvement Association, through its Publicity department at its American headquarters. 56 West 125th street, New York City, today releases the following statement: Urged for a statement, Mr. Garvey says: "My arrest is but the starting point of a great International conflict that will one day show the Negro not the worse off for the result. Enemies of the Negro race and enemies of my movement within the Race have been plotting for some time to beemirch my character in order to hold me up to public ridicule and to cause me to lose favor among my people. The fight is on-nd, it will end only when Gabriel blows his horn. The New Negro, through the Universal Negro Improvement Association shall teach the wicked a signal lesson. I welcome the fight to damage my character. Watch the health of the Negro shall be free from thought-fall and the enemies of human liberty and justice rage. Among those who are opposing the Universal Negro Improvement Association are the leaders of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the paper organization known as the African Blood Brotherhood, of Blaigh Cyril Winged editor of the "Crusader" a monthly magazine and active working head, and who is out on bail for criminal libel against Marcus Garvey.

The new building will contain one hundred rooms, exclusive of Prayer or Assembling Rooms; Auditorium, Rest Rooms, Dining Room and Kitchen. Our present frontage is 200 feet by 200 feet deep. On this lot is a ten-room cottage, grape fruit, oranges, lemons, figs, walnuts, four large palms, shrubbery and garden. We need the co-operation and prayers of God's people all over the land in the erecting of this building, and feel the Lord would have every believer in Christ have a part in this grand work. If you feel this Home will be an honor to God and His people, a pride to the State of California, and a credit to the Race (as we are believing you do), may we have your hearty co-operation in this work. We will not ask you for $1,000 or $500 or $100, but if every reader of this paper will send in one dollar for Registration and volunteer to get as many of the Race interested we will soon have the task accomplished. We know we have no building of this kind to represent our Race in the State of California, and many do come from afar. It would be very nice to spend a week-end in this Home. This is not a Hotel or Roaming House or private property. We have no stock or shares to sell, but one dollar or whatever the Lord lays on your heart will give you a Reservation in this Home. Any one feeling led to make an offering to furnish a room for themselves or a tired or returned Missionary or a home for one in old age, please act at once. This is the last call and an especial appeal to the Race. My House shall be called a house of prayer for all nations. Special Free Will Offerings will be used as requested. "Bring ye all the tithes into the store-house that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me saith the Lord of hosts, and I will open the windows of heaven and pour you out such a blessing there shall not be room enough to receive it." Mal. 3:10. We have a Secretary and Matron in attendance continually; also a consecrated staff of workers praying for the sick daily. Those in need of spiritual help for soul or body, send in without hesitation for prayers. Thanking you in advance for any favors shown us, I am yours in His Service, J. S. EPPS, Superintendent. Make all Checks, Money Orders or Drafts payable to the Superintendent. There is no need of going down town to trade when you have an up-to-date DRUG STORE in your neighborhood. WITH DOWN TOWN PRICES.

Sunday morning, Jan. 22, at 10:30 a.m., the hour that had for many years found him wending his way churchward, Shedrick Porter, for 34 years a resident of Los Angeles, answered the death call. Mr. Porter was born at St. Augusta, Texas, in the year 1857. Progressive in spirit, Shedick Porter while yet a young man started in search of his fortune and first of all, realizing that in union there was strength, he went to Shreveport, La., where he claimed Miss Delacey Bennett as his bride, and a few years later, hearing of the greatness of California, young Porter with his wife and children, who jointly shared his desire to succeed in a new country, came West, settling at Los Angeles, then the baby city of California. No further argument was needed to convince Mr. Porter that this was the right spot where he should "let down his bucket," hence his children were reared and educated here, and he had, the distinction of being a member of one of the oldest and most respected Colored families in the State. Mr. Porter leaves a daughter, Mrs Mattie Van Norton, five grandchildren, two brothers and three sisters in California and three brothers in Texas.

THE CHANGING OF THE WORLD THAT MAN ARNOLD Believes in one thing at a time, and that done well. His job is to satisfy the hungry. He specializes in this line and does it not better than the best—but far better than the rest. When wanting food that's better than mother cooks—eat with OBRTARY. Jessie Deloris, the youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. R. Smart, was born Aug. 18, 1914, and departed this life Jan. 14, 1922, aged 7 years, 4 months and 27 days. Just a short while with us, and then the parting. Oh, the beauty and the gladness of that Resurrection day which shall not through endless ages pass away. She leaves a father, mother, one devoted sister, grandparents and other near and dear relatives to mourn her loss. The funeral was held Wednesday, Father Cleghorn so beautifully officiating. Those tender consoling words will ever live in the memory of his hearers.

Just what his knobs interprets the consequences to mean, we know not; however, a couple of brick-bats within a convenient reach of your shooting arm might not be altogether out of place should the married but still uptamed prexy attempt any extraordinary monkey shines such as flattening one's respiration tube outlet, denting the think tank or a fistic operation on optics. For those who survive the conflict, there is a gang of work awaiting as follows: To decide how many of the "bad pay" clubs are to be beheaded and what one's allowed to divy in the July 4th pie at Frisco; to frame details for the July 4th tournament and dance at Frisco; to consider local tourney dates Feb. 22 and May 30; installment of officers; hold a little "free-for-all" over the adoption of several amendments to the Constitution; discuss the time worn club house project as well as to take a stand for or against. the Lake Elsinore proposition.

A—Pacific Coast championships of men's and women's singles; men's doubles and mixed doubles will be established at the July 4 tournament and San Francisco or Oakland, the site of which has not yet been determined. Q—What determines eligibles? J. J.

BASE BALL CHARLESTON GREATEST ALL AROUND BASE BALLER OF AGE; BIG LEAGUE MASSACRE 4-0 SATURDAY; 5-4 SUNDAY; BEANS REARDON UMPS. The record crowds of a week age at the Sox park were badly shattered again last Saturday and Sunday when Oscar Charleston, the sensational manager and base ball phenom, slicked his trick performers upon and humbled big Irish Mensel, brother Bob and their seven sworn assistants in two more brain twist-ers 4-3 and 5 to 4, which totaled four games played and all were won by one tiny, little point. The Pay-Day Match. The Pay Day Match. The week-end clash with Lefty Thomas of the pale faced victims and south winged Hurley McNair for the park proprietors, sewing the mill up for four rounds tighter than a new pair of Main street bunion caresserr, was considerably loosened up in the fifth when a double by Moore, singles by McNair, Jeffries and Mackey, a force by Hawkins and a dependable Oscar. Charleston's sacrifice fly shoved a triplet across the counter and sending the crowd into frenzy. The outraged visitors spurted right back in the sixth with the same number when the pride of the New York Americans scored two with a b-base slash over Oscar's noble dome in center and checked in himself on Boeckel's double left, but this was all for the guests for the day, but McNair in the 7th kicked the pitter with the winning tally Jeffries' sacrifice and Manager Charleston's singles; results 4 to 3. Sabbath Collision. No determined to grind out a victory was Irish Mensem that he refused to listen to pleading to froze Umpire Bob Knowlton for allying the mighty Charleston to take the last put out of the Saturday game by digging 18 inches under ground for Butch Byler's line drive, and Benns Reardon of Coast League once was harnessed behind the dish. Jim Joyce's Whig. That left soup bone that dangles the neck and unassuming Mr. Jerries has been found to be incompatible a billion wheels during it's games here, dimmy, turns diamond swarm as conveniently as ```markdown ``` the coupon hurler of the Chicago City Giants, whom Walter McCready came all the way from Seattle to see in action while considering him for a Coast League berth, but Mackey pursued Manager Charleston to let Jeff stick, and he won his game as a result. Heavy Timber Active. Heavy Timber Active. Nearly everybody hammered Bill Pertica's emolied ball for two or three; Lem Hawkins grabbed a row of hockey, Orr and Charles-topammed the three cushioners for pastime; Oscar's hit was the longest ever seen in the local, lot, and ground rules only, prevented the Black Babe Ruth from walking around the paths. Pertica Scared to Death Big league twirler William "cut-em-up" Pertica, with the score three-three in the 9th, after McNair had doubled and Hawkins was out, looked up and saw, what—Oscar Charleston at the plate, closely followed by Raleigh Mackey, and this was more than the ball slasher could endure, but after a prolonged consultation with his excited pals he tossed eight straight wide balls, walking the murderous looking pair and loading the sacks to get to Jose Mendez, who filvered quickly, but Pertica spied George Carr striding toward the bowl and was immediately afflicted with the Chinese palsey and was night on to a mental collapse and heaved the next pill yards out of Johnny Bassler's reach, and McNair strolled home with the day's victory strapped to his heel.

Two Base Hits—McNair (2), Fagen. But by far the best bout of the evening that was most soothing to the ear drums of the segregated hundreds last Monday night was put on when Frank O. Eagan himself mounted thestage and relieved the chagrined souls with the welcomed words, "let's forget our little misunderstanding," which was readily translated to mean, "you can sit on the roof if you choose to—if you pay for it"—so the "stuff's off." Audience Behavior Rotten. The foulest thing on the menu was a ockik of "typical late arrivals," evidently bent on a grand display of milady's choice buy, in long-time-casy-payment mothproof furs, and dad's handsome remodeled, hand-me-down $15 Jew overcoat of pure horse-blanket texture. Guaffahs Need Timing. After noisily greeting all of their old acquaintances and debters from down home, they proceeded to skin tem back, snicker, giggle and quahquah at the most untimely and in-opportune time possible, drowning out completely the most solemn and interesting expression made by the characters—and this from the "elite" in the orchestra—most disgustful beyond print. "Malc" a. Knock-Out. Mother Patton's long, lean good looking son, Malcom, had all the ear marks of a rare pup with an ancient pedigree—yep, Malc knocked 'em dead, although he was a little slow about grabbing his newly found love, Ghawana, to smack her pretty throbbing lips—Kid Patton has a future which surprised the many. Pretty Pauline Scores Heavily. The sweetest thing on the floor who was causing all the fuss and dueling, the "leading lady." Pauline Jones, was also superb and added a collection of male hearts to her already long string of blood pumps by the graceful manner in which she draped her pretty self across Malc's manly breast—ouch! Dialect. Rotten Grammar. Whether by design or back-woods force of habit, the outraged preacher's chewed-up and badly flattened English was unbearable, as also was the reckless handling of grammar by several others whose acting otherwise was commendable—yes, boys, bring us a sheet of sand paper and polish up the old vocabulary (whatever that is.) Support Means Success. Notwithstanding the heavy gate tax of 50c to $1.50, the locals ought to stampede the place seven days a week and make it go; this, the restrictions now removed, is a rare opportunity and should be made to pay Slashed Rate Profitable Slashed Rate Profitable. It is not altogether unreasonable to suggest that a 50 per cent cut on the pick-pocket strain might be profitable and insure the new project a grand success. Just why the ticket purchasers are only assessed 17c at the Orpheum, 17c at the Morosco and 28e at the Majestic for an opportunity to crack peanuts in their galleries and then are high-wayed out of a half a bill at the new amateur house, is not clear to the layman, while a popular price of 25e to one iron man might pack the place, a continuance of the present embarges the cast by playing to a house full of empty benches. The Uncle Tom Stuff. Nor are we convinced that the author intended that the "Uncle Tom" atmosphere should surround "Africanus." A supposed intelligent minister in a fashionable New York apartment flourishing a razor was as much off color as a bull in a parlor in the sight of the "New Negro" who detests seeing "Race characteristics" screened every time a curtain rises. A crave for drama locally should by no means restrict the Colored cast to Negro drama. Sport Hits DANNY EDWARDS WALLOPS A.E. F. CHAMPION BABE ASHER AT PORTLAND 10 ROUNDS. In the 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th rounds of their battle at Portland, Ore, Tuesday night, little Danny Edwards, the Oakland "Colored flash," had the A. E. F. champion, Babe Asher, staggering around like a bimbo saturated with fire water. So terrific was Edwards' attack in the 7th with lefts and rights that only the bell saved the Chicago bantamweight from the knock-out drops. Edwards is now the logical banty to defend the Pacific Coast championship crown now that the title holder is on his way to New York to run down the world's champ, Johnny Buff, who has just crossed the lake to London. Geo. Rivers, Kid Bruce Beats Jim- The extraction of an extra quarter for general admission and a four bit levy on the ringside benches, didn't effect the stampede at the Central avenue "bean punching" bazaar last Wednesday night, where a jammed house yelled with joyous enthusiasm while 12 fistic gladiators, six of whom were descendants of Ham, mauled and slugged each other to a fare you well. MAIN ATTRACTION. George Rivers (Colored) vs. Steve Dalton (Mexican), 155 pounds; Dalton won decision 4 rounds. Zulun Kid (Colored) vs. young Monroe (Mexican), 120 pounds; Monroe won by k. o. 4 rounds. Young Sam Langford (Colored) vs. Kita Flores (Mexican), 125 pounds; Langford won by k. o. 4 rounds.

Buel Hines, time keeper; Billy Tucker, announcer. Zulu Kid K. Oe'd. A Mexican bantam labeled Young Monroe slammed the Zulu Kid for a foul in the last few seconds of their fourth heat with a stiff left to his food masticating department, but strangely was at the same instant stopping one of the Kid's ebony rights to his own dining room and was on the verge of splashing to the floor while the ref was tolling off the ten seconds over the deaf ears of Zulu. While Kid Zulu lost the second and third rounds handily after drawing the first, he had the Mexican groggy for the first half of the final but failed to follow it up and allowed him to recuperate. Sam Comes Back. Young Samuel Langford in the bloodiest battle yet witnessed at the Central avenue punching factory, regained the admiration of all his former friends by wading right into the chill consumer, Kid Flores, in the first spasm and laying the Mexican in the cooler in the second with a succession of rights and lefts to the head and jaw; this was Sam's best showing so far and he looks good for the future. Sailor Smith Whales Mex Sailor Smith Whales Mex. The long, tall, brown skinned, well featured Sailor Smith put on a clever exhibition with shifty Jack Price, a Mexican of experience, and hugged Uncle Sam's punches so lovingly when Smith was roughest that the sleep jolt, was unable to break through and he stayed, although was in a bad way in the second and third, and in the fourth the Sailor hammered him so severely that the referee mistook an old glove, which was thrown in the ring by some ring-side jester, for a sponge, and only by protests from both battlers allow-Battling Pico, a Mexican, failed ed the thing to go on. clamor for the slugging that makes to show for his go with Joe Chaney a white boy, Johnny Bryant, filled in the gap with a rare powder puff, boxing, both boys being too clever to thrill, the fans who best fancy boxing contest, yet the gore squirt, and although the best fancy boxing contest yet yet seen they failed to enthuse. Bruce Battles Heavyweight. That famous-Denver boy; Kid Bruce, a 145-pounder, has more courage than a locomotive; he allowed himself matched with a white boy who must certainly weigh 160 or 170 pounds, and then-made such a game showing that Referee Ar- thur Collins gave him the mill, although the crowd booed the decision so hard for a draw decision that Collins was anxious to give everybody else the job. Jimmy Fayne's long reach and extra weight made it difficult for the Colored battler to get to him, but Bruce, who has never yet taken the 10 seconds' nap, was always, there and landed some telling blow on Fayne's nose. The white boy had a pile-driver right which landed several times and shook the Kid up considerably in the third when he slipped to the floor but was up before a count was started, and from then on battled so furiously that the referee thought him entitled to the decision, although a draw would have harmed nobody. These handicap matches are uninteresting as well as unpopular and the matchmaker will do well to avoid same. Walch Referees Mam Go. The hooting was still on when George Rivers and Mexican whaler, Steve Dalton, climbed in for the big attraction, so the mill was refered to George Rivers, who was referred ring-side, the famous Unisexal film actor received a big hand and made a little talk in response. The odds were 10 to 7 that the Vernon arena headlights would stow Rivers away, but the crafty Colored middleweight was too fast for the slugging Mexican, who won the bout because of his boring in tactics, although a draw might have suited better, as Rivers landed three blows to Steve's one but with less steam behind them. The clean hitting by Rivers was in evidence all the way, while Dalton missed swing after swing and was wild at times, so hard did he try for a knockout; he finished Rivers with body punches that hurt at times but the Race lad never, failed to return the fire and gave an unexpected display of his ability to give and take with a man of Dalton's reputation.

And though I have the gift of perseverance, and fordering and all knowledge and though I have all faith so that I could remove mountain, and have not charity I am nothing. And now abdelt faith, his charity, these three; but the burden of these is where. Or Our Lord. The pulpul may be acknowledged among all people. To the pulpul we look for the highest ideals of life. The Negro more than any other race has been largely dependent upon the pulpul. Let us not look to our ministers to do things for us that we can do ourselves. There is work for every Christian. We all can be ministers in our own way. A minister is an agent. Every Christian can be an agent for the firm of God. Let us not feel that because we fill our seat in church on Sunday, our work is done. I am sure many of us would be surprised to know the distress there is among our people in the city of Los Angeles. Many of these unfortunate are deserving but hard luck has come to their door. I don't mean to denounce those who reach out to starving Russia, or foreigners, but we have them nearer. We within our midst. Yea, enough charitable organizations among our people in this city. Some feel that we don't need them because the white people are generous to us. Are we going to depend upon the County Charities must divide with all races, and therefore can do just so much. We can at least take up where they left off. Here, I mention a worthy cause, "Daniel Williams Hospital." There isn't a Negro hospital in the city of Los Angeles. We would rather scrap with the white people about theirs than to build one of our own. There are no accommodations for our people suffering with tuberculosis. Mother Wright of Monrovia cares for a few. On account of small quarters and others begging to get in, she only keeps them three months at a time. I hear race people do a very little to help her. There is much for our women to do. I realize some of us are doing all we can. while others are doing absolutely nothing to help THE NEW YORK TIMES a fallen stew or brother; but granting with Jewish hands, to be social leaders. One writer has said: "In all ages of the world woman has been the central figure around which all joys and sorrows, all inspirations, all aspirations and all accomplishments have circled. Every race and nation that is at all progressive has its quote of earnest women engaged in creating for themselves a higher sphere of usefulness to the world. "We need a Colored Woman's Aid Society." Later I am going to appeal to the Christian women to help me organize one. Christianity is the medium by which woman has been exalted to her legitimate sphere in the world. I find much to do along these lines. Children not attending Sunday School; all classes should be encouraged to send their children to some Sunday School. Through the children of today we hope to build the foundation of our next generation of civility, intelligence and strength that testinations, prejudice and persecution may descend in torrents and is will not be moved. We should be mindful of strangers who come to our city and are without money and out-of employment. Help the sick, for such comes to all. Do not pass the afflicted without lending a helping hand; there may be dependents at home. Remember the aged; we, too, must get old. Please report any cases of distress that you know to (Mrs.) Mattie Mae Stafford. Tel. So. 5940. Practicing What We Preach. Most of us are ready to preach thrift for others. Not enough of us are willing to practice on our own account. Probably the man who first suggested that the rest of the world should put by something for a rainy day didn't own an umbrella himself. Many people, look at thrife as some of us look upon a boll on another man's neck in the spring of the year. mkmom the year. We tell him comfortingly that a boll on his neck is a good thing for him—it'll purify his blood, clear his system of poisons, make his general health better. Later on we assure him he'll fell ever so much happier for having undergone the that none of us would care to have that boll transferred from the other man's neck to our neck. Williams' wonderful Excelsior Hair Grower guaranteed to grow the hair one-half inch a month. I cannot urge you too strongly to try my treatment. No matter how short and stubborn your hair is Excelsior will grow it; give it a trial. 1488 W. JEFFERSON ST. In a way of speaking the same thing applies to the practice of national think. Too often the average American follows the line of least resistance in this matter. When times are good he thinks he has no need to save. And when times are bad he has nothing to save anyhow. Our spirit of national optimism is such that across the fair pass of a fat year we fail to discern the creeping shadows of lean years coming after. The Arkansas preacher who explained that he didn't mend the hole in his roof because in stormy weather he couldn't mend it and in fair weather he had no need to mend it because it didn't leak, was typical of a whale lot of us. The U. S. Government, in carrying on its Thrift Campaign, is striving to combat this common tendency amongst our people. The Government, through the Treasury Department, is trying to show us that a reasonable frugality does not mean this riliness; that the possession of honestly earned, safely saved money makes more valuable to ourselves and to our neighbors as citizens and more useful, collectively, as a nation. Treasury Saving Securities take the money into the present into another layer the process of the future. If everyone of us during 1922 makes up his mind or her mind to acquire Treasury Saving Securities—and to keep them—this year will be a happier for Americans and more stable year for their country. We'll know then that we can't go broke unless the United States goes broke first—and that's not probable. Let us do this and the venders of worthless and fraudulent schemes of investment will lose their main sources of income, the fly-bynight promoter, will suffer, the bucket shopper will fell the pinch of sudden poverty, and the man who lives by crooked financial devices will go to Three and fro bemoaning his fate. But the rest of us will be infinitely better off. A. W. Atwood in the Saturday Evening Post: "If all the employees of the United States Steel Corporation should save $2 per week and put it into stock of the company, they own cootrilling interest within 10 years." David Lloyd-George, the British priе minister, in Houst of Commons: "The only saving that will help the Government substantially is the savings of the people themselves — the saving of the individuals, the savings of families, the saving of the man who had an income in any shape or form. The savings of the people are at the present moment vital to the success of this country, and the man who cuts down unnecessary expenditure is important to the success of the country." E. F. Mack, Central Trust Co. Chicago: "A man who has children can leave them no better legacy than the saving habit," formed through years of actual practice, for such a habit coupled with honesty, industry, and courtesy, will insure the business success of any child later in life." former director of the New York Federal Reserve Bank and member of the Advisory Committee of the Conference on the Limitation of Armament: "Young man, if you a cramp in y o u r pocketbook, there is something wrong with you and you should see a good doctor, so better once than the Treasury Dtartment of the United States Government. If you have his Securities filled, and take them regularly, you will soon find yourself cured." "Charles Galloway, former President of the United States Civil Service Commission, says: "I know of no greater service the Govehment could render the public than the one the Treasury. Department is undertaking. I regard Treasury Savings Securities as the stiffest and therefore the best possible means of another investments that offer a larger rate of interest, there is also a greater risk. There is no experiment in putting money into any United States Government security; the element of risk disappears because everything there is in this land is behind a Government security." The small war-time Treasury-Savings Securities, comprising the 25 cent Thrift Stamp and the $5 War Savings Stamp, were discontinued, effective December 31, 1921. Thrift stamps outstanding will be accepted at face value on account of the purchase price of Treasury Savings Certificates, new issue, or Treasury Savings Stamps, or will be redeemed at face value in cash at authorized post offices or at any Federal Reserve Bank. APPEALS FOR FUNDS IN FIGHT FOR DYER BILL The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York City, today issued the following statement calling for financial assistance in the fight to make the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, H. R. 13, a law. "In its ten-year fight on lynching," the statement says, "the N. A. C. P. has spent almost $25,000. The Association's Anti-Lynching Fund, which it is sought always to keep at the $10,000 mark, has dwindled because of the heavy demands made upon it. Those demands have included personal investigations of lynchings; mass meetings, world-wide publicity. The old canard that rape is a cause of lynching has been finally and once for all exploded. "During almost a month's debate of the Bill in Congress, the secretary of the N. A. A. C. P. has been in Washington in constant conference with leaders in the House of Representatives. An enormous mass of information collected by the N. A. A. C. P., and new information based on evidence of the N. A. A. C. P., being presented to the House will be MRS.

The passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill is a rift of light from the cloudy horizon which cannot help but be appreciated by all lovers of justice and fair play. The substantial majority which the Bill received gives every hope for its final passage in the Senate, unless, per chance, as in the case of Lincoln Johnson, Senatorial courtesy would be put in vogue. There were 17 Republicans who failed to stand the test of the traditions of the Republican party; three of them from California; they are Representatives Nolan, Barbour and Curry; write down their names for future references. We are glad to note the Southern California delegation most nobly stood up for justice and right. Much praise is due the officers of the N. A. A. C. P. for the relentless warfare they made for the passage of this Bill, and we congratulate the Association for this most splendid victory. PRODUCING SOMETHING. The author of "Africanus" must turn a deaf ear to the harkies who criticize, unmeritoriously, for of such there is nothing constructive on which to ascend the heights. Constructive criticism, she doubtless will hear and appreciate. After all criticisms are in, the worthy and unworthy, it will be discerned that Mrs. Lois Ribb Thompson stands out in bold relief as the genius who lays the foundation on these Western shores upon which a Race might have an opportunity to rise and demonstrate in the legitimate drama. If as a Race of people we are to get anywhere, we must qualify as producers; when this is apparent the question of opportunity is all but solved. The experienced impressario Frank Egan read this author's production, saw merit therein and give the dormant talent of this section an opportunity which has heretofore been denied them. Therefore we accept in the march of progress the accession of a producer of the play "Africanus," which gave an opportunity for such talent as Malcom Patton, Jr., Pauline Jones, Robert Kane, Robert Hannibal, Augustus Perkins, and others, and as good as we feel about it, we pronounce her as a demonstrated genius, who has been the instrument of the Master to make real progress along the line of this particular effort for this people in this section of our country. Her fame will go forth as she has contributed on history's pages her mite for the propagation of things worth while for the continued ascendancy of a struggling Race. We desire to extend condolence to Mr. J. W. Wheaton, our brilliant contributor, over the tragic passing of his brother, the Hon. Frank J. Wheaton, former Asst. District Attorney of New York City. Frank Wheaton was the soul of honor, and brooding over the possible financial ruin which confronted him as a reward for doing a kindly act of going on the bond of a full man. He, with his friends, scoured New York in search of the man and Wheaton, giving up in despair, was so affected that reason deserted him and he took his own life. The Eagle is at all times wholly impersonal, but in the case of known crooks we have our eyes eternally upon them; this includes the newest species of thieves, such as those who would steal the mailing list of their competitor and then be simple enough to try to make a laughing matter out of the same. Believe the matter never happens, however these ? The big barrier to the real progress of a race is the tendency to tear down what others may build. This is not the situation with the unwise or ignorant but our most intelligent, err the most in this respect, and lacks the common horse sense to realize in digging a ditch for the other fellow to fall into, he himself often digs a grave for himself. Col. Chas. Young, whose demise the Race mourns, attain the highest rank which any Colored officer has ever attained in the regular army of this country. Without underhand methods being put in vogue by the Wilson administration, he would have been appointed on his merit to a Brigadier-Generalship, a cruel fate, an ungrateful country sent him to Liberia for the sole purpose of putting him on the shelf; there he passed away, but in the natural order of things God has willed that another is right in his steps, and some day, oh, some day, Uncle Sam will per chance wake up to a sense of justice and give to the black army officer his due. PRODUCERS ARE THESE. A recent article in the Kansas City Journal, quoting from a statistical record from the office of the Secretary of State, the following interesting data which upholds our everlasting propaganda for production. The figures referred to are as follows: that in the state of Missouri there is a population of 178,000 Negroes, 40,000 of whom live in the rural districts there, 300,000 are straight out farmers and 1500 of these are worth from the production of the soil sixteen million, five hundred, forty-two thousand and sixty-seven dollars, $16,7542,067. Read and reflect if you will over this marvelous record of achievement and it is only made possible from the fact that out of 178,000, 3000 saw the light of day and stuck to the soil, and have been able that the Secretary of State must record on the great book of the state the salient part that the black people of that state are playing in the future growth and progress of the great state of Missouri. Now we have left in Missouri just 175,000 hanging around St. Louis, Kansas City and other would-be cities, and if just one-half of this number would get back to the soil it is apparent that a record for production would come to pass, so great that the Black peoples of Missouri would indeed be a commanding influence in all avenues of endeavor for that great state. Just think of it, the production from agricultural pursuits from the whole of Southern California for last year was $18,000,000 in round numbers and 1500 Negro farmers give to us a production of $16,000,000. We have seen the light of day and the dawn of a new day long since, and figures as above quoted should be an inspiration to go ahead as never before to produce such things as will make a people become a commanding force in whatever section of the country they may happen to abide. Let's eschew the turmoil of great cities, and as we come to this great land of opportunity let's go right out and stake our claim on the soil and from the soil we assure you will come not only wealth but contentment and joy. We have encouraged all movements which have had for its object "Production," especially PRODUCTION from the soil of the earth; let it be in the mighty Imperial, San Joaquin Valley, Lower California or elsewhere. In fact we like the vision which prompts the hardy pioneer spirit of Troy, Macbeth, et. al., who seek to become the producers on the peninsula of lower California, we liken it to the promised land and Look, Who is Here!

We are living in a modern age in which everyone must demonstrate his ability to occupy the place in the world that he has chosen. It is not enough to say that I am as good as you are, or, that I am as qualified as you. The world wants to see and judge for itself and the sooner the race realizes that, the sooner it will get recognized. This has improved greatly in its conduct in public places. We seldom find our folks sitting in the theatres, on the cars and in other public places, with a bag of peanuts candy and etc., with which they are feeding themselves. Nor do we hear as much loud talking or boisterous laughter as in former days. Still we have a long way to go in further developing our public manners We spoke recently through these columns, that we lacked culture and proper understanding of the higher things of life. This statement has been forcibly confirmed by Mr. Chas. Gilpin, of "Emperor Jones" fame, who told the editor of the New York Age, that— In Washington, the Capital City, the home of supposed culture and refinement among members of the race with its Howard University—and other fine schools, where many members of the race have leisure for reading and thinking on account of their positions with the government, he was disappointed. Why? Because here, if anywhere, he expected to be understood. When the play was given there in a special performance under the auspices of the Howard players, and when the climax of this fine work was reached, the audience laughed. We ask again then, "Of what use is education and training if we never get beyond the stage of appreciation on the things other than cheap vaudeville and comedies?" And right here let us add that we are wondering how Los Angeles is going to receive the Momolu Players next week. Someone asked us if these remarks have anything to do with music. We can reply that Music is the sum total of all the other arts and a MARY E. BROWN THE BUSY BETTY CHEAPEST PLACE POULTRY Haber Poultry Wholesale De Dressed Strictly Fresh 654 So. San Pedro St. S CO. (INC.) and Embalmers POOR ORIGINAL few sciences combined. That a proper appreciation of Music is possible only though a proper appreciation of painting, sculpture, poetry, drama, architecture, mathematics, dancing and numerous other forms of art and science. The reason that we cannot understand music any better than we do, is largely due to our lack of knowledge on these other subjects. Future articles will deal with the relationship of these things to music. CLUBS YOUNG PEOPLES' LYCEUM.

In a trial before Judge Chebore on last Thursday the members of the Sphinx Club, who had been arrested on a charge of gambling last November, were discharged, thereby exhoboring them from this charge. The members are naturally elated over the victory and are now going forward with a new zeal to make this a high class club which will be of real benefit to the people, who want a first class place to go to for amusement and pass away a dull hour or so. The management assures us and the people that gambling will be absolutely prohibited and their highest aim will ever be to maintain a place of which any law-abiding citizen may visit and secure such accommodations as any first class club affords. The Royal Hawaiian Family which has been touring the West during this season will furnish the program at the Y. M. C. A. Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock sharp.

The Sacramento Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People installed their officers Friday evening, Jan. 13th, at their regular session, and the new president, Rev. Fred A. Hughes of St. Andrews church, gave the following address touching national and world problems with which the Association is interested: My Fellow Citizens:— I am deeply conscious of the responsibility that has come to me as the head of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in the community and I am grateful for the faith you have in me. Let us in that faith arise to our highest sense of duty and service to our God and our fellowman. We stand upon the threshold of a new year; a year fraught with potentialities far beyond the comprehension of the average individual. Shall we not study the conditions that confront us that we may be able to take advantage of the opportunities that will present themselves. We know no race, no color, no class, nor sex, but all, who believe in the work of the organization will work together for the best interest of the darker Americans; work for the development of his social, economic and civic life. Every Colored person in our community should be members of the organization, because only through organization can we gain power, and only through power can we come into the full measure of our opportunities; then, too, we have an organization in the National Association that has passed the experimental stage and has proven its worth in the past; is based upon scientific methods, and numbers among its members some of America's ablest citizens, Colored and white. Our white citizens should be encouraged to join the National Association; first, because it is working to end lynching—the thing, which disgraces America and makes it the laughing stock of the civilized world second, because it is working to conserve the Constitution of the United States and the Bill of Rights; third, because "America can never be in truth a democracy while one-tenth of its population is oppressed and repressed." The Association must not become the agent of a few, but must stand with all the people, to repress their opinions and their aspirations, and WATTS NEWS. Mr. Roan and wife left Thursday for Idaho, but we are glad to say that their stay will not be permanent, as they plan to return to make Watts their home. Watts people are rejoicing over the fact that Dr. Clark has moved in our midst and will administer to our wants when we are ill. He is located at Rev. Davis' residence on Compton avenue. Mrs. Coming has been on the sick list for several days. Rev. Johnson from Oakland delivered an old-time sermon Sunday evening at the A. M. E. church. Mrs. Hattie Lane arrived home Sunday from Kansas where she was called on account of the illness of her father. She reports her father much improved. Mr. Richard Perry has completed his store buildings and both will soon be occupied, one as a grocery store and the other as a hair parlor. The Macedonia Baptist church is growing rapidly under the efficient leadership of the pastor, Rev. John A. Fleming Sunday, Jan. 15, was a soul winning service and a spiritual treat to those present. The auditorium was filled at both morning and evening services. Mrs. M. B. Wright, our reporter from Watts, received the sad news from her brother, whom she has not seen for 16 years, that their mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Martin, had passed away Friday, Jan. 6, at her home, 3245 Forest avenue, Chicago. Thus the flower has faded and will bloom no more in this world, but we rejoice when we think that we can see her again in full bloom around God's throne. She had lived to see the 80-mile stone. Burial was made in the family lot at Kansas City, Kansas.

Matt. 13:31,32 The International and Universal House of Prayer THE OPENING OF THE NEW HOUSE OF PRAYER Phone Fair Oaks 705 960 Morton Ave. Pasadena, Calif. We intend this proposed building to be a Home for the Saints and Missionaries, strictly non-sectarian. The new building will contain one hundred rooms, exclusive of Prayer or Assembling Rooms; Auditorium, Rest Rooms, Dining Room and Kitchen. Our present frontage is 200 feet by 200 feet deep. On this lot is a ten-room cottage, grape fruit, oranges, lemons, figs, walnuts, four large palms, shrubbery and garden. We need the co-operation and prayers of God's people all over the land in the erecting of this building, and feel the Lord would have every believer in Christ have a part in this grand work. If you feel this Home will be an honor to God and His people, a pride to the State of California, and a credit to the Race (as we are believing you do), may we have your hearty co-operation in this work. We will not ask you for $1,000 or $500 or $100, but if every reader of this paper will send in one dollar for Registration and volunteer to get as many of the Race interested we will soon have the task accomplished. We know we have no building of this kind to represent our Race in the State of California, and many do come from afar. It would be very nice to spend a week-end in this Home. This is not a Hotel or Rooming House or private property. We have no stock or shares to sell, but one dollar or whatever the Lord lays on your heart will give you a Reservation in this Home. Any one feeling led to make an offering to furnish a room for themselves or a tired or returned Missionary or a home for one in old age, please act at once. This is the last call and an especial appeal to the Race. My House shall be called a house of prayer for all nations. Special Free Will Offerings will be used as requested. "Bring ye all the tithes into the store house that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me saith the Lord of hosts, and I will open the windows of heaven and pour you out such a blessing there shall not be room enough to receive it." Mal. 3:10. We have a Secretary and Matron in attendance continually; also a consecrated staff of workers praying for the sick daily. Those in need of spiritual help for soul or body, send in without hesitation for prayers. Thanking you in advance for any favors shown us, I am yours in His Service, J. S. EPPS, Superintendent.

M. E. thuslastic and attentive audience CHURCH—and the people seemed to have Rev. J. C. Anderson, Pastor, a crowded house greeted the pastor at the morning service, on the past Lord's Day. The pastor preached from the subject, "Old Wells." The sermon was spiritual and helpful. The choir was at its best and rendered the gospel in song to the delight of the people. There were two accessions to the membership of the church during the day. The pastor also preached at the evening service to another splendid congregation. Taken as a whole, the day was very profitably spent. Strangers and visitors always find a hearty welcome to all the services of this progressive church. Come where a real gospel message awaits you and where the old-time fire is burning. BIRCH ST, CHRISTIAN CHURCH Car 17TH, and Birch Streets. Beautiful services, as usual, were the order at the Birch St. church on last Lord's Day. The pastor, Rev F. C. Cothran, filled the pulpit at both services and brought to us two beautiful sermons, full of the wisdom of the spirit and the edification for the soul that comes only from the Scriptures. The morning services were well attended and the ratification of the elder's choice of F. C. Cothran to be our spiritual leader was unanimous. Elder Cothran has been laboring with us practically ever since our re-construction of several months ago. We all know and love Bro. Cothran, and we are sure that the work will continue to grow and prosper under his leadership and by our united support. Elder I. J. Williams will continue to assist Elder Cothran in this work and a greater work than ever is planned for 1922. The Bible School has taken on new life and the teachers and superintendent are prepared to give the very best attention to the spiritual development of all children who come from cradle to the senior adults. The Y. P. Society, too, is enjoying a wonderful season of push and go. Our new president, Bro. McKinley Harlan, is asking for the attention of fifty young people during the next thirty days, and he will get them, too. The prayer service, to which we all owe our lives and success, are still continuing and are bigger and better than ever. These services are conducted in a manner that makes them appeal to all classes of Christians, from the most sentimental to the most esthetic, and all are benefited who attend. On last Sunday the social hour was served by one of our visiting friends who is interested in our welfare and progress. Mrs. Perkins. A record breaking crowd was in attendance and many, helpful friendships were prolonged and many new acquaintances formed. A pleasant evening was enjoyed by all. We certainly do feel grateful to have the friendship and support of those ladies. And we can certainly, assure them that they will long be remembered by our people. The usual service for next Sunday. Everybody, made to feel welcome and at home. Rev. J. Edw. McCorkle, Minister. The pastor will occupy the pulpit at the morning hour next Sabbath, and Rev. T. R. Williams will preach at night. The past Sabbath services were very attractive. The pastor preached at 11 o'clock, on the "Elijah's Challenge to the Prophets of Baal," and at night on "The Victor's Crown." Both messages were well delivered and approvingly received. There was extra demonstration of the presence of the power of the Spirit at the morning service. The Sunday School still shows an increase, and the Allen C. E. Society is taking on new life with its new inspiring gospel singing under the leadership of the present organist, Mrs. McCorkle, wife of the minister. The Helping Hand Club from its rainy vacation and announces its Valentine Fair, Feb. 14th. This is in lieu of the Christmas Fair that was paddoned on account of the rain. Tickets purchased then and reserved are good for the Valentine Fair. Ward Chapel is a progressive church with a profitable program. All are welcome. Rev. E. Lighter, Pastor. Two splendid services were held at this church the past Sunday. The pastor filled the pulpit at both hours, using his morning subject, "A Challenge to our Faith." At the evening hour he spoke on "Fellowship with Jesus." At the close of the morning service newly elected officers were installed as pastor. Two persons were accepted into full membership of the church at the evening hour. This Sunday Jan. 22nd, Rev. St. Geo. A. McCalla will be the speaker at the morning hour and the pastor will speak in the evening. The Christian Endeavor will hold its annual election of officers Sunday at 6:30 p. m. all members are urged to be present and be cordially invited to worshipp with us at all services. A hearty welcome awaits you. FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH (MISSION)— W. Jefferson and Normandle. Major G. W. Prioleau, Pastor. Forty-five children present at the Sunday School last Sunday. It was one of the most interesting Sunday School sessions of little ones that it has been our pleasure to have witnessed. Only one little girl, however, was able to recite the Ten Commandments; that little girl better look sharp; there are others. POOR ORIGINAL thuslastic and attentive audience, and the people seemed to have caught the inspiration of the occasion, and it was really a congregation of genuine worshippers. At the evening service Bro. Wm. Washington preached a very interesting sermon. The offering of the day was-up to the standard. Several visitors worshipped with us. Come again; you are heartily welcomed. IND. CHURCH OF CHRIST Cor. 18th and Paloma Streets. Rev. N. P. Greggs, Pastor. The church is full of new inspiration. We had an enjoyable service last Sunday. Rev. Greggs announced that Mr. Arvant Benjamin, a very prominent member of the choir, would begin teaching the playing of the cornet. The pastor's sermon was from Jer. 14:4. "O Jerusalem, Wash Thine Heart from Wickedness, that Thou Mayest be Saved," which was delivered to an intelligent and appreciative audience. The morning service was favored by an unusual selection from the choir, a mixed quartette composed of Mrs. Monroe Beavers and Inex Robinson, Mr. Anthony and Mr. France, gang as sweetly as the angels, Mrs. Crawford was the sweet soloist of the morning. Rev. Greggs and his wonderful choir occupied the pulpit at Tabernacle Baptist church Sunday afternoon. The sermon was eloquently delivered; Mrs. Viola Sims, one of the mocking bird songsters, rendered a sacred solo. Rev. Irving conducted the ovening service, which was on the same high order. The choir sang as if inspired. We cordially invite the public to worship with us every Sunday. Wesley is in the midst of a great drive to move up a notch higher in genuine religious service. The pastor's morning sermon on "Go Forward" was a masterpiece of spiritual power. His evening sermon on the "Right Use of Time" was also full of helpful practical suggestions. Four persons united with the church during the day. This Sunday is "Visitors Day." Each member is asked to invite another person not a member to worship with us. The pastor will preach great sermons both morning and evening. You will fail to hear a great gospel message if you miss either one of these services. Among the topic to be discussed in a preliminary way at the evening service will be, "How to Treat a Minister." How to Treat Strangers! The People Who Have Special Claims on the Church." Special music by the choir; Great gospel song chorus at the evening service. Wesley, promises good helpful preaching, excellent singing and a good fellowship free from gush and cant. Come and see. FIRST AFRICAN M. E. CHURCH 8th Street and Towne Ave. Rcv. A. Milton Ward. Minister. The pastor will occupy his pulpit in the 8th and Towne Ave. A. M. E. church at 11 a.m. and 7:30 p. m. Sunday. The choir will sing. Come let us worship together. The services last Sunday were attended with the old-time ferver, Rcv. Ward preached morning and evening. There were five additions to the membership of the church. Bro. Emanuel Hall sang morning and evening with usual power. Both choirs inspired the audience with special anthems. Large congregations were in attendance, including many prominent out-of-town visitors. Interesting sessions of the Sunday School and the Allen C. E. League were held at 9 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. respectively. The study of the Bible grows in interest with both young and old. Adult Class No. 4. Mr. J. W. Clayton, teacher, was awarded the banner. Intermediate Class No. 1. Mrs. Lucile Mood, teacher, won the honor class for collection on the previous Sunday. The Mutual Aid Society of the First A. M. E. church met on Monday evening. President, S. S. Taft, presided; Mrs. Leon Gruner recorded a auditing. The report of the auditing committee showed that the receipts for 1921 were $130.80; expenditures, $138.81, and that the Society's balance at the close of 1921 is $171.750. The net receipts over the previous year were $178.82. The Society was honored with the presence of the Rev. David R. Jones, who took the initiative in its organization during his pastorate in 1894. Among the very sick of our flock are Sister S. A. Wright, Bro. J. W. Harding, Sister Emma Smith, Bro. J. H. Keyes, Bro. Paul Alexander, Sister Rhilda Phoenix and Miss Alma Brown. FIRST A. M. E. ZION CHURCH This church closed a very successful revival on last Sunday evening. Not only were Christians revived but lost sheep were brought into the fold. Rev Reed, who has been conducting the revival, preached last Sunday morning on "Jesus," and Sunday evening on "God, His Power and Divinity." Isaiah 45:23. That unto me every knee shall bow, and every tongue shall swear. At each service there was one to accept the name of Jesus. The meetings, which have been held since the first of the year, have been helpful indeed and the church greatly appreciates the services rendered it by Rev Reed and his dear wife. On next Sunday' morning Rev Gantt will preach on "The Dreamer's Dream." Came out and hear him; it will do you good. He will occupy his pul- pit Sunday evening. The total collection for regular service on last Sunday was $99. Don't forget the Old Folks Concert Friday, Feb. 3rd, at this church. Let us hear the old songs of our mothers' day and listen to talent undeveloped that far exceeds some of our "stars" of today. An unusual program of by-gone days. Rev.

Next Sunday the pastor will fill the pulpit at each service. You are invited to meet with us at 11 a. m. and 8 p. m. Progress is marked in Second Baptist church by the interest and zeal with which the members are taking up the work of the various departments of the church. At the recent annual meeting new departments were created which have become necessary for an efficient working organization, and additional members were added to the various Boards already serving. The membership has increased to such an extent that entirely new benevolent and financial systems have been adopted. The pastor and officers desire to keep in as close personal touch with the membership as possible. This will soon be feasible through the plan recently adopted. "Some Suggestions as to Business Possibilities" was the subject of the "Pulpit Editorial" preliminary to the morning sermon. Dr. Griffith is making these business talks as the result of wide, personal observation, and the value of them lies in their practicability. The text of the sermon was from Isa. 61:10, upon "Beautiful Garments From the Heavenly Wardrobe." God has made man a lover of the beautiful and in endless ways gratifies this sense. We see the matchless beauty of Nature in all her varying moods; the numberless arts through which man creates beauty; and the physical beauty of man himself. But all these are less than nothing, and man is clothed in unclean rags unless he dons the garments of righteousness. The pastor spoke with inspired feeling, and those who came to worship felt the influence of the message. Rev. R. H. Wade, district missionary, delivered a fine missionary sermon at the evening service. Six united with the membership as the result of the day's services. Mrs. Alice Harvey, Mrs. Clara Hulbert. and Mr. Charles White added much to the music by their sweet singing. SERVICES AT ST. PAUL BAPTIST CHURCH. 21st and Naomi—Rev. R. N. Holt. D. D.

AN OPEN LETTER AN OPEN LETTER To the Editor. Dear Sir,—Having day by day watched the changes that are overtaking the human family—changes that are the expression of deteriorating minds. it has dawned upon me that there is something wrong with our method of education. There are more centers for intellectual development now; such as grammar schools, high schools and universities, than there were ten years ago. There are more churches for religious devotion today than there were twenty years ago; but still we find more delinquency, boys and girls in our reform schools; the jails and prisons are filled, too, and beyond their capacities; the divorce cell is running a swift race with the granting of marriage license; crimes of the most desperate nature, committed chiefly by young people, are getting more prevalent, although there are more reformers who are crying about today than there were ten years ago. It is evident then that our system of education is wrong. The human mind, as far as we know, is divided into two aspects: the moral and the intellectual. The first is the habitation of the greater controlling force of the human race, because it either raises the intellect to the acme of human achievements or pulls it down into the deepest mire of lie. However, we find that the moral aspect of the child's mind is left untrained and the mere shadows of a real life the things at which it is trained to grasp. In this year of 1922, cannot something be done that will be conductive to the betterment of the human race? Yes, it can be best list. I appeal to you, mothers and fathers, to set better examples in your homes; make it one of your daily tasks to instruct your children in the moral code of life; impress upon the minds the high value of honesty, truthfulness, moral consistency and the other virtues of life. 2ndly. To you educators, I may raise your code of instructions. your code of instructions. Do not only teach your pupil or student how to make a life or acquire great wealth but how to deal honestly. Teach your lawyer only how to speak but, to speak truthfully. Establish a moral code in your schools of lower and higher learning and make its instructions a daily task, as you do the less important subjects; then will the jails get empty; prisons abolished and wars cease. Then again, mothers do not marry your daughters to the highest financial bidders; if you do, you have made prostitutes of them in a legalized form and they are no better than those who are taken in the vice raids; but let your guide be love, and high moral principles your goal.

THE ELDORADO GOLD STAR MINING COMPANY SENDS GREETINGS TO ITS STOCKHOLDERS AND FRIENDS. The closing year has given new and convincing evidences of the richness and extensiveness of the Company's mining possibilities. The services of an expert mining Engineer, coupled with the steady and conscientious activities of our manager, have placed such facts before the Company. that in the immediate future, with the effective application of skill and modern machinery, the greatest results can confidently be expected. Every member supplied with the most recent information is jubilant over the blessings of a new day, glowing with prosperity which is already imparting its vigor and hopefulness. The Company further wishes to announce our purchasing new machinery, including Air Drill and Air Compressor outfit, which has become an absolute necessity in our efforts as to deep mining. Working snouts from 80 to 100 feet in depth can no longer be conveniently handled without adequate hoisting machinery. At our last Annual Stockholders meeting it was decided to descend on Silver Legion shaft No. 1 to the main body of ore, which will pay handsomely from every indication. The 6 other prospective and superficial mining shafts which have opened up values running as high as $360 per ton silver and gold, will be also operated simultaneously as funds shall warrant. From the discoveries and indications there is nothing greater than the Company's holdings in all the mining possibilities of South-ran Nevada, says one of America's best and most experienced Mining Engineers. We must rally as never before to accomplish the task and put over this great enterprise during the present year. The Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce none better in the United States recognizes, this Company as one of the fixed established assets in these industrial developments of the West. As a people we should seriously consider the mining industry which is to-day contributing three fourths of the world's wealth. No Company amongst us is better prepared with mining claims than ours; hence our appeal to united social efforts to make us both powerful and effective of flood. Signify your interest and willingness to co-operate by purchasing liberally of the Company's stock, offered still at $1.00 per share. Make payments direct to the office and receive prompt acknowledgements.

Base Ball OSCAR CHARLESTON'S "BEAR CATS" MUSS UP MEUSEL'S MAJORS 3-2 SATURDAY, BUT ARE SPANKED 7-6 SUNDAY; RECORD CROWDS. Two huge crowd records were splintered at the White Sox Park last Saturday and Sunday when Irish Mensel's All Stars bumped into field manager Oscar Charleston's trained animals and were more or less scared up for their trouble in a tight 2 to 2 Saturday tussle, but eased out one ahead of the Race lads Sunday 7 to 6. Crowd Lines Outfield. By far the mightiest throng that ever witnessed a Saturday game was present and was also the biggest gathering in the park this season. ```markdown ``` Official Image The Gag Law Bucks One Buck. The Purse Gate Tax. ```markdown ``` ```markdown ``` The Sabbath mob was the greatest ever crammed in the enclosure in its history, not excepting the famous Walter Mails multitude of 1920. Bristling With Excitement. A regular riot of enthusiasm kept both shows primed with kick and high voltage throughout. If brainy Oscar Charleston wasn't pulling one of his famous drag-shot bunts safely, he was lambasting a double or hot and sizzling grass cutter to the outfield. Walter Moore featured in the week-end struggle by taking one handed one of long Bob Mensel's hot liners which was labeled for three or more in the fourth round. Robert Fagen as a swimmer in it forgot ninth of Saturday was a scream, and Lem Hawkins, who grabbed three for the day, maced out a double with two op, tying up the thing two all, and Hurley McNair spanked one to Joe Pirrone in center but Hawkins sprinted across before Josephus could nail him at the plate, and the battle was won 3 r. Tiu: Sabbath Fuss. The Menselists were all aglow with big league performances but Jan White's hired hands are touted as of the same brand of actors, so the stuff was as tight as a vice all the way. Our boys got away to bad start but were fighting hard until the 57th p. o. was registered. Luzerne Blue of the opposition forces smote John Taylor's offering for four sacks, and Johnathan was snatched from the hill in the third when Robert de Muse slaughtered another for a circuit with two on. Mendez Some Chucker. Jose Mendez retired the visitors and coasted along beautifully for four rounds; Joe struck a knot-hole when in the 5th Boeckel doubled; Carl Sawyer three-plied and followed Boeckel home on a sacrifice fly to Oscar; this left on the count 7 to 3. For awhile it looked like another victory from behind, but three was all we could squeeze over off Carr's and Oscar's doubles, and Mackey's and Blackman's one basers; thus 7 to 6. Bigger Crowd Yet—O'Malley. Sporting Editor Ed O'Malley of the Times predicts a much more mammoth bombardment at the cash gate next Saturday and Sunday than last, and it looks that way.

The classy stuff was sticking out all over the Wednesday night menu at the Paradise Gardens battle pavilion w here 28 3-minute rounds of nose flattening was scheduled, but the insistence of some of the eve- ning's entertainers on sleeping more than the allotted 10 seconds curtailed the bill somewhat, but what was left was certainly worth years of one's life to see. Main Event. Young Burton (Colored) vs. Jack White (whit£), 133 pounds; draw 4 round: The Prelims. Young Sam Langford (Colored, vs. young Garcia (Mexican), 122 pounds; draw. Billy Kane (Colored) vs. Packy Flynn (white), 133 pounds Kane won decision. Kid Mack (Colored) vs. Soldier Graham (white), 142 pounds; Graham won decision. Kid Bruce (Colored) vs. Panana Slugger (Colored), 145 pounds; Bruce won by k. o. 3 rounds. Jeo Rivers (Colored) vs. Sam Neal (white), 155 pounds; Rivers won by k. o. one round. Kid Terry (Colored) vs. Jimmie Payne (white), 145 pounds; Payne won 3 rounds (stopped by referee). The Race had yung Burton and the white 133 pounder, Jack White, are a dashing pair of scrappers of even ability, having battled to a draw verdict, both last week and this, with no signs of victory in sight. Denver Ed Referees Denver Ed Martin, famous old warrior and one of the few remaining Colored heavies of the old school of twenty years ago, and now one of Champion Jack Dempsey's trainers, after a flowery introduction by announcer Billy Donaldson, acted an referee of the Burton-White go. The Colored boy was as cat-like as a panther for two spasms, but Jack who, while not so swift, is headler and figured correctly, that the feed barrel was Burton's weakest part, and that his bag, which slowed the young person up noticeably in the third and fourth and drew a trickle of crimson from Burton's mouth and received a well earned draw. First Fight. The crafty little Mexican, young Garcia, made things awfully nasty for young Samuel Langford and had the Colored lad in a bad way several times during the second and third go rounds and raised a hickey below Sam's peeper as large as the knot on a camel's back and poured volley another on Langford's cating department, which earned him the draw. Second Fuss Clever little Billy Kane danced around Irish Packey Flynn through 4 sessions of lively stepping, but the Caucasian was always ready for more meat and had referee George Tittington rendered a fifty fifty verdict, nobody would have thought of mobbing him, although Billy stacked an appreciable number of points in clean pokes and jabs. Third Chew Up. A white man resembling Jack Dempsey in size but claiming 147 as his weight, named Soldier Graham, drew Kid Mack as his opponent but the Kid's weight handicap was noticed from the first, and in the third and fourth this began to talk louder than words. The Soldier rattled Mack's air tank go persistently in the last spasm that Mr. Mack was seen three times hugging the canvas for the count of nine, and by the way Graham massaged Mack's kidneys while he was trying to cover up was a surprise to see Mack stay the lim- Fourth Clash. A pair of Race 145 pounders, one the Panama Slugger, and Kid Bruce, the famous Denver welter, tied into each other for three scenes; as it was about this period of the evening that the more experienced walloper, Bruce, decided to teach the Central American to maintain more respect for natives of the Stars and Stripes, and with his first real attempt slammed the young novice into dreamland with his powerful right. Elfth Hook Un Had Joe Rivers trained himself into the same fine shape last week that he was in Wednesday night, the seconds might still be administering cold towels to Ted Frenchie in frantic effort to pull him back to this life, etc., but the white hope, Sam Neal, was used to demonstrate this to thefans. Exactly 30 seconds after Samuel shook hands with Joseph, he was seed to sprawl across the platform like a deflated balloon, and it was some 10 minutes thereafter before Neal's shaky pins would bear him to where his clothes were checked.

As a fill-in, Jimmy Fayne, although much too heavy for the Colored boy, Kid Terry, was shoved in to help things along, as with a fighter the Kid was a perfectly wonderful marathoner, but after covering many miles he was overtaken and was being battered down in a neutral corner when the red mercifully saved him from an unpleasant dream in the third by holding the white boy's hand aloft. Heavies Next Wednesday. Hugh Victor Alexander, a brown skinned 190 pounder who made history at Doyle's Vernon aren' last year, will be put on the hill for next week with some available heavy across the line (Battling Savage please take notice), and unless "Pop" Sanders sticks up many more biecher benches than he had built this week it is a question of just how the strong he accommodated without moving the roof. Oscar's Strategy. Got to hand it to Manager Oscar Charleston for doing things to help his team out of tight places; this acknowledged Ty Cobb of the Race can drag the meanest little infield hit within an inch and a half of the first base line and repeatedly, ever seen in this precinct, and he never gives up; he's "fightin'" all the time.

Instead of Harry Wills, Colored contender for the heavyweight crown, wallpaping the tar quit of old gray-headed Sam Langford last Tuesday night at the Milwaukee arena, Portland, Orie, Harry merely nursed the veteran Sam clung throughout the ten sessions, taking an easy decision without injecting the sleep dope.

JAZZ AND DRAMA TO REIGN AT WALKER THEATER ON MONDAY NIGHT. With a talented company of thirty Colored players and a jazz orchestra of dusky-hued musicians, the Walker Theater, Grand at Seventh, will be formally re-opened next Monday night, Jan. 23rd, when Frank Eagan, well known theatrical man, presents the Monolou Players in a highly dramatic play, "Africanus," for a limited engagement. The premiere of the attraction Monday night will mark the height of the social season of the local-Colored colony, and it is anticipated that the house will be sold out long before the doors are opened to admit the elite of the Los Angeles Colored colony and the many whites who have already expressed their intention of attending the most unique entertainment "I am giving the Colored folk their first opportunity to express themselves, through the medium of the drama," said Frank Eagan, yesterday. "We have had the Colored minstrels, musical comedies and the like, but never before to my knowledge has the Negro been afforded the chance to display his real dramatic ability in a big down-town theater to a mixed audience. The lower floor at the Walker Theater is to be reserved for Colored people exclusively. The balcony will be set Mayfern Hair REGISTERED U. S.

You see, I am reversing the usual order of things and it is certainly "appreciated by the local Colored colony." "Africanus," the initial vehicle of the Monolu Players, as the Colored organization styles itself, is from the pen of Mrs. E. Bibbs Thompson, a local writer and wife of a Los Angeles newspaper man. It is a highly dramatic play with numerous opportunities for rare emotional acting and the playful players. Paula Biele and Malachi Patton are confident that they will gain signal honors through their interpretation of exceedingly difficult roles. They are supported by an able cast of players, many of whom have appeared in musical comedy shows in the South and in the East. Olga Gray-Zaeeek, popular dramatic star who is rehearsing the Monola Players in "Africanus," is confident that Los Angeles audiences will be greatly surprised by the innate art of the Colored troupe when they witness a performance of the forthcoming play. She states that every member of the cast of thirty members is a natural born actor and that they have taken up their work with unusual zest and appreciation. Not the least interesting feature connected with the introduction of a Colored dramatic company in Los Angeles is the fact that local audiences will see futuristic scenery employed for the first time. All of the settings, which were designed and executed by the well known scenic artists, Clyde Tracy and Harry Oliver, follow the fantastic cubist pattern. Vivid colorings and odd angles run riot through the three acts and prologue of "Africanus," and this new departure in local theatricals will undoubtedly create a sensation. Following a limited engagement of "Africanus" at the Walker Theater, "Come Seven," the great New York comedy success presented by Colored players, will be offered, if negotiations now under way between Mr. Egan and George Broadhurst can be consummated. Then "Sapho" and other equally popular old-time successes will be attempted by the Monolou Players. The premiere of "Africanus" at the Walker Theater next Monday evening will be but the beginning of a season of dramatic activity among the Colored folk of this city, and Mr. Egan, sponsor for the players, predicts a bright future for his unique company.

HUGHES TELLS SACRAMENTO OF THE N.A.A.C.P. Through the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People hundreds of civil rights cases were filed in the courts; hostile settlers have been successfully oppressed; county anti-Negro measures against the Congress were killed and the 40th Congress; the Supreme Court has granted over lynchings to some of the most eminent criminals have commented on the civil We have before this session of Congress the Anti-Lynching Bill. passage and passage are at the heart of the verdict. The Department of Justice brought to light the furious strife of the Williamsburg farm in Jasper county, Georgia, and the owner is now serving a life sentence in the State prison. President McKinley said in his inaugural address on March 14, 1897, that "Lynching must not be tolerated and in a great and civilized country like the United States, courts must execute the penalty of the laws. The preservation of public order, the right of discussion, the integrity of the courts and the administration of justice must continue forever, the rock of safety upon which our Government securely rests." KU KLUX KLAN. The Ku Klux Klan, like a shooting star, was brilliant for a moment, but has paled into insignificance and its body is disintegrating under the power of a temporary injunction; thus always it should be with self-appointed defenders of constituted authority. LAW ENFORCEMENT Law enforcement seems to be the demand of the times, and it is necessary to good government, but laws must be backed up by public opinion; public sentiment is brought by education; it is to educate. All laws should be enforceable. Chain is stronger than its weakest link, enforce one, enforce all. A NEW HAYTIAN POLICY. A new Haytian policy is under consideration by Secretary Hughes of the Department of State; a new policy and a new deal is certainly surely needed by these people. WHITE SUPREMACY. Is it real or imaginary? Be that as it may, it has exerted a real influence on the races of mankind, but today it seems to be waning; the British Empire, upon whose possession the sun never sets, in fighting today to save itself from dissolution. A seething revolution fomenting in India, with Gandhi the leader of the proclaimed Republic, which contains millions of souls; uprisings in Egypt forebode troubled times; pleading Ireland remains yet a "thorn in her side." "Watchman, what of the night? The morning cometh! What does it bring for America, my beloved America, the greatest nation that ever trod the earth? Has she chosen the "better part" or has she been encumbered about unnecessary things? REDUCTION IN REPRESENTATION Reduction in representation seems to be justified in the South owing to the flagrant disenfranchisement of the Negroes there, even to armed forces being used against them as was revealed by special investigators in the Florida election riots. BE NOT DISHEARTENED. In conclusion let me say that if there are those among us who would make our way more difficult, we must not be disheartened, but the more earnestly dedicate ourselves to the task which we have righteously entered. The path of progress is seldom smooth. FRED A. HUGHES, President N. A. A. C. P. The dying wish of Mr. Mabel Peterson, who resided on East 12th street, was that she, be allowed to go to her home to spend her last days. The doctors pronounced that her days were numbered, and thereby hang the story of a struggle' under tremendous difficulties of the Peterson family for this dying woman to have her last wish gratified. For months this frall woman had been confined with a disease which required that she be strapped to a chair to keep her from harming herself. She had a five-months old baby; her husband was forced to give up his position to wait upon her; their small savings soon vanished, and when the doctors told her she could not live, her wish was that she be allowed to die at her home in Denver, Colo. The people heard her cry; they ralled to her side, and with the Old Fellows heading the list, with a sub- parental donation the people confirmed freely and her dying when was granted, for us last Thursday and her husband were placed on ward in train for Denver, where she was raised and married. SRS interested themselves in behalf of this friendless woman: After a lingering illness of six months, Mra. Mabel Peterson departed for her home in Denver, Colo., Tuesday evening. Mr. Peterson accompanied his invalid wife, and she was well supplied with all the comfort necessary. A wish to who in any way may be administered to the care of this unfortunate woman. We wish especially to thank the following churches and organizations for their liberal donations: Total amt. collected ..... $ 150 Another prominent church has promised a donation of $15 which, when given, will complete the expenses incurred. The full report will be made in new week's schedule. The first in the association Charities to furnish transportation, as was first expected, made it necessary for us to make a general appeal to the public. Words are indeed inadequate to express our heartfelt appreciation for the generous manner that our many friends responded to our appeal. for Christ and Humanity. Roberstein Hammock Mrs. A. D. Malone. LOS ANGELES GIRL MAKES HIT IN VIRGINIA ST. LUKE HERALD LAUDS MISS MINNIE M. ALBRITTON. (Clipping Richmond, Va.: "The Song Recital M. Minnie M. Minnie," "The Nineteen Waltz," "The Moming Bird of the Pacific Coast," was rendered at the True Reformers' Hall last Monday night. This was indeed the event of the season. The hall was crowded to its fullest capacity. The accompanying musician of the night was Prof. Chas. Bland, musical director of the Second Baptist church. The All Star Female Quartette, Mrs. Louise Tilton Dean, pianist, gave their matchless support to the program of the evening, which was greatly enjoyed. As the audience listened to Miss Albritton, her cello strains of touching songs laden with majestic enchantments, each one seemed to begin to muse upon the sayings of that immortal bard of Stratford-On-Avon; "The man that hath no music in him, Nor is moved with concord of sweet sounds, Is fit for treason, strategems and spoils; The notions of his spirit are dull as night, And his affections dark as Erebus; Let no such man be trusted." Miss Albritton, it is reported, will return to Richmond in a short time. Those who were so unfortunate as not to have heard her last Monday night will surely avail themselves of the opportunity when it presents itself again. Richmond honored itself when it received this renowned Western singer. She, as a young lyric soprano, occupies the topmost niche in the musical circles of America. The voice of her soul has wished and carried away the soul of Richmond. We can only pause with suspended reason until she comes again. The concert was given under the auspices of Mocha Temple of Shriners and Mocha Court 42, Daughters of Isis. PASSING OF A KERN COUNTY PIONEER Mrs. F. L. Dangerfield, pioneer citizen of Bakersfield, passed away at her residence at 2123 13th street in that city Wednesday morning, Jan. 18th, at 1:20 o'clock. Mrs. Dangerfield came to Bakersfield 19 years ago, with her husband and three children, all of whom survive her. She was born in Berkshire county, West Virginia, about 58 years ago and spent over half that time working for the Master, trying to make others happy and to rear her children in the right way. Some after coming to Bakersfield she connected herself with Cain's Chapel A. M. K. church, where she worked faithfully until the end came. A few months before she died she was injured in an automobile accident which caused her death. Tuesday afternoon before the died she called her young daughter to her bedside and with "Huey the additional band and I love you." Louise Green of Needles, Cal, and Chestello Hunter of Bakersfield; one son, Hugh Dangerfield of this city, and two son-in-laws, Oscar Greer of Needles, and George Hunter of Bakersfield, and a little grandaughter, Constance Hunter of Bakersfield. BELATED EMANCIPATION EXERCISES PROVES OF MUCH INTEREST. Undismayed by the lapse of 23 days after the real Emancipation Day, the people demonstrated their keen interest in the 59th Anniversary of the Freedom of a Race by turning out in large numbers for the delayed program on last Monday evening at the 11th St. School House. The meeting was a joint one of the Forum and N. A. A. C. P. The only part played by the latter was the installation of their officers by Rev. T. L. Griffith, pastor of the 2nd Baptist church. Rev. Griffith in a few well chosen and well directed words installed the galaxy of officers, whose names had been given in a previous issue of this publication. The Forum Representation. At the conclusion of the installation, Mr. C. E. McKinney, president of the Forum, was introduced and took charge of the exercises for the evening. The president made a very good beginning at the program byaking a watch of five minutes' duration, which was a fitting one indeed for the ocasion. 'The exercises of the Forum proper were opened with the hymn "Onward Christian Soldiers," led by the Forum organist, Mrs. Pipps. Interspersed with the numbers solos were rendered by Rev. Emanuel Hall and Mrs. Shaffer. Father W. T. Cleghorn invoked the divine bleeing upon the assemblage. Mrs. Hayward a white woman 52 years of age who was a personal friend of Charles Sumner and prominent in the anti-slavery movement back in 59-60 was present and spoke reminiscently of those trying days. Mrs. A. C. Richardson discovered Mrs. Hayward brought her to this meeting and introduced her. The remarks made by her as well as her presence was most highly appreciated by all who realize the great service she has done to these earth born warriors of unkindness. Mrs. C. A. Spendall Bums spoke briefly, in a resume of racial progress since emancipation. Attorney C. E. Jenkins introduced the speaker of the evening Rev. L. B. Brown. The speaker was at a distinct disadvantage on account of the lateness of the hour and of necessity had to cut his address which he must have made indicated the fact that the missed a wonderful address.

Sir:—In a recent interview given to the press in Washington, it is alleged that you spoke in opposition to the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill; a Bill designed to prevent the illegal punishment of those accused of crime and who are put to death without the due process of the laws enacted by constituted authority. Million of people of the United States read of your attitude—an attitude incompatible with your previous stand for humanity with regret. It seemed so strange to the men and women of the nation that a man who hated the courage to resign a position of high responsibility (Secretary of State), when he believed that the enation would be drawn into a conflict that was to make the "world safe for democracy," could oppose a measure designed to protect the fundamentals of this Government. It is alleged that you said that "the North would regret the passing of the measure, as well as the South." Can it be possible that the expounder of the gospel of "The Prince of Peace" has changed his ideas of human rights with the change of residence? Has he allowed the mismaa effluum of Florida to replace the noble ideals of Nebraska? It is a long stretch that "humanity shall not be crucified on a cross of gold" to acquiescing in the murder of men and women and children". And that is, just exactly what opposition to the Federal measure to prevent punching means. Your ambition to represent the state of your adoption in the Senate of the United States is commandable. Failing to give political aspirations in Nebraska, it is your undemable right to seek for the honors elsewhere. But—and we ask it in the name of humanity, are you going to follow in the footsteps of those who have preceded you and climb to political heights on the ladder held together by the rounds of malice, race hreats, arson, political disfragrance and the lynching of Negroes? That has been the means of those who have sought political preferment in that section. It does seem that you have allowed yourself to become saturated with those ideas during your short term as a resident of your adopted State. The mere fact that you are seeking to make a sectional issue of the Dyer measure proves it. The citizenry of the country, regardless of race, creed or color, deploy your attitude, and stand amazed at the great change which has caused you to place a new definition on humanity. It was to such men as yourself that a struggling people looked for encouragement to embrace higher values and promote enlightened citizenship. Are they to be disillusioned? We have looked upon you as the great Commoner, one who championed the cause of the weak. Don't be your own iconoclast. Respectfully, W. H. WHEATON. VISIT CLUBS. PRESIDENT OF STATE FEDERATION OF NEGRO WOOMEN'S CLUBS MAKES ANNUAL VISIT TO NORTHERN SECTION. Mrs. Pearl Lowery Winters, the wide-awake president of the State Federation of Negro Women's Clubs, from reports at hand has made visits to numerous local clubs in Northern California. She was received with hearty acclaim and the greatest enthusiasm was manifested on the part of the members thereof. All the clubs with one exception was visited in Oakland, all of which are reported in a most excellent condition. Golden West Club is considering plans for building. The Mothers' Club is doing a great work. It is said that Mrs. Pearl Lowery Winters is demonstrating to the utmost her soul as a constructive executive officer, and that the Federals will continue to thrive and grow like the proverbial "Green Bay Tree." HELPING HUMANITY Harris of 1500 Newton street, at which time the work accomplished by the organization during the past year was reviewed. At Christmas time the King daughters sent many baskets as well as cash to the poor of this community, and at this last meeting plans for even greater activity were consummated. CHILD DIES FROM BURNS The high ested in, which little Jessie Deloris Smart was held by her many friends were demonstrated last Wednesday, Jan. 18, when they filled the funeral parlor of Smith & Williams to pay their last tribute of respect. Little Jessie was so horribly burned, Saturday morning. Jan. 14, when her clothing caught fire from a lighted bon-fire that she died from the effects. Although terribly burned from her chest to her feet, she did not shed a tear but silently suffered untold agony until the end came. TO THE EAGLE SUBSCRIBERS As related by theft, false pretense, trick and device, the mailing list of this paper was stolen and made use of by the latest Negro effort in journalism in this city. Eagle readers were perturbed and confused by receiving this paper, as they knew not why or how the paper was sent to them. Now we are informed by many of our subscribers that they are being annoyed by someone (describing the person) trying to make collections and representing himself as being sent out from this office, and also many complaints otherwise. We ask our patrons until such time as the mailing list thieves be fully exposed and punished that they use every precaution and kindly report to us any information which will bring to justice persons who are so low and vicious as to commit such a snide and unthinkable crime and ask to continue within the pale of respectability. CALIFORNIA EAGLE. AN ENJOYABLE EVENING ODD FELLOWS MARCHING ON; GOLDEN RULE LODGE GIVES MONSTER RECEPTION; GRAND MASTER J. B. Bass MAKES NO- TABLE ADDRESS. (By J. T. Lewis.) On the last regular meeting night of Golden Rule Lodge, at Odd Fellows Hall, the evening was given over to the purposes of a reception by this Lodge, at which the members and invited friends participated. It was one evening to be long remembered. Mr. Eugene Fisher had been chosen master of ceremonies for the occasion, and indeed presented a program of music and song, reinforced by remarks for the future welfare of the great Body worth while. Various Odd Fellows expressed themselves that this reception was one of the greatest ever held by the Order. The Grand Master, J. B. Bass, was the honored guest, and at the conclusion of the program delivered an address which was indeed a fitting climax for the evening. Strong, bold and convincingly did he put forth the things which this great Order stands for and at the conclusion of his address he was accorded an ovation by the great mass of men who were present. In royal and magnificent style did he launch the 1922 drive for the doubling of the membership of this Lodge. The roll now shows a membership in excess of 110 members. and in 90 days Golden Rule proposes to go over the top with a membership of more than 125 members. Refreshments were served and a continuation of various musical numbers. On last Sunday an attempt was made to burn the residence of Mr. Edward Grubbs, 230 E. 78th street, at 12:30 p. m. by placing a can of coal oil under the back steps and setting it on fire. Fortunately the dastardly crime was averted by Mr. Grubbs, who was awakened at the crackling of the incipient blaze, and he hurriedly extinguished the fire before it gained further headway. This was a plain attempt to wreak vengeance upon the Grubbs family because they dared to want to live and breathe fresh air in this particular neighborhood, and it was a plain attempt to burn and drive him out of his home, all in keeping with the tactics of the Ku Klux Klan. MAKING GOOD. MRS. ANTOINETTE JACKSON SCORES TRIUMPH IN EAST. Word reaches this city of the stern triumph of Mrs. Antoinette Jackson, formerly Miss Young, who was reared in this city. At a Recital given in Kansas City at the Boulse and Christian church she appeared on the program, assisting the great organist, Hans C. Feil. The numbers rendered by Mrs. Jackson were: (a) "The Doe Skin Blanket," by Cadman; (b) "The Moon Drops Low," by Cadman. She was compelled to respond to two encores. Mrs. Jackson possesses a wonderful voice and yielding to training which she has received; her many friends realize that she is now a most wonderful singer. CONCERTDELUXE The first efforts of the Race to do "something big" in a musical way last year when the Concert De Lux was staged at Philharmonic Auditorium, was attended with such surprising success that many have insisted upon Prof. Bartlett to appear again this year. Never satisfied with doing as well as we have to, but always aiming to excel, to attain the highest point of achievement, Prof. Bartlett is making an earlier start this year in order to make the Concert De Lux greater and better in every detail. All the members of the First A. M. E. church choir are enthusiastic in their help to build up a full 300 voice aggregation. Everybody knows that our city boasts of some of the best musical talent to be found anywhere, and the management is determined to prove it by these great concert performances under the name of Concert De Lux. The date will be announced later. BAKERSFIELD NOTES. The Coleridge-Taylor Lowrey Club in conjunction with the choir of the A. M. E. church will present during February Mme. M. Galloway Brayam.

He wishes to thank his legion of friends through the column of "The Live Wire." THE RAMSEYS ENTERTAIN The palatial home of Mr. and Mrs. I.

GRAY Thorough Course in Piano Technic PIANO—HARMONY Residen lessons 766 SITH & WILL CHEAPEST PLACE IN TOWN TO BUY POULTRY Haber Poultry and Egg Market Wholesale Dealers in Fresh Dressed Poultry Strictly Fresh Ranch Eggs We remarked last week that music was the sum total of all the other arts, and a few sciences. That one is unable to fully appreciate music who knows nothing of other arts and literature. Volumms might be written on this subject but we intend merely to point out a few facts in support of our argument. Let us consider literature first. Nearly all of the great masters have been inspired by reading the poems and prose of good writers. Not only have they been inspired to write absolute music but they have set poems to music as in the case of songs and operas, they have molded musical forms to parallel different forms of literature. The mere setting of verses to music developed the song-form. This consists chiefly of introduction, verse, interlude and again verse, etc. The composer must have some knowledge of the rymth and cadences of poetry as well as the singer who sings the song or the audience that hears it. The composer of operas must understand the drama. Opera-goers must do likewise. Many great symphonies are tragedies in tone. One proof of this is shown in the music selected to accompany the production of many moving pictures. So dramatic is some of this music taken from famous overtures and symphonies that it fits certain scenes perfectly. When we consider the case of program music in which the piece is supposed to be a photographich reproduction in tone of some idea or story, the relationship is still clearer. As in the case of many moderns, a printed explanation accompanies the programmed title. For a cleared understanding of Chopin, especially the preludes and some of the mazurkas, one should read the novels of George Sand. From another angle we take the period in history in which a composer lived. Since most great writers, such as Shakespeare, Hugo, Dante et. al. were influenced by conditions of their time, and since these same conditions were affecting contemporary musicians, artists, MARY MAY THE BUSY BETTY CHEAPEST PLACE POULTRY Haber Poultry Wholesale De Dressed Strictly Fresh 654 So. San Pedro St. S CO. (INC.) nd Embalmers POOR ORIGINAL sculptors, etc., wemust know something of the period in which these men lived. Many references to music and musicians are made in the works of these masters. The style of music also helps us to understand the kind of people who lived at a certain period, and many historians have been able to trace clearly a race of people by following the trail left by their music and art. Bach and his contemporaries were contrapuntal in their style. Schumann, Chopin, Schubert, etc., were contrapuntal and homophonic. Theirs was the romantic period. Beethoven was a great bridge between these groups, and we are now living in the modern and impressionistic period. Good literature develops the mind and a well developed mind is fertile soil in which to sow the seed of all things artistic. Let the music lever' read good books and hear good music if he would learn to appreciate the finer side of the beautiful art of mu- January 20, 1922. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York City, today made public a letter written to Marcus Garvey, managing editor of the Negro World, a newspaper, calling upon him for a retraction of statements published in the number of Jan., 1922, and directed against the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, although the Association is not mentioned by name. The letter, which was signed by Joseph Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, is as follows: "Marcus Garvey, Esk., Managing Editor the Negro World. Sir:— "In the Negro World of Jan. 21, 1922, on page 5, column 2, occur the following statements: "All the troubles we have had on our ships have been caused because men were paid to make this trouble by certain organizations calling themselves Negro Advancement Associations. They paid men to dismantle our machinery and otherwise damaged it so as to bring about the downfall of the movement" You are aware of course that the name "Negro Advancement Associations" is sufficiently like that of the The Maidwell Dress Co.

JAMES WELDON JOHNSON, Secretary." A RISING YOUNG MINISTER. Rev. Charles Benjamin Dones has not been away from Los Angeles so long that he has been forgotten among his many friends and acquaintances, and yet he has been hidden in the hills of Redlands just long enough to have become thoroughly acquainted with his own soul and to learn to know God. Even as the Master for forty days and nights fasted, prayed and thoroughly consecrated Himself at the beginning of His ministry, so he was taken away to the little deserted and neglected field of Redlands; away from everyone and everything that he held most dear, to take charge, or rather to unlock, the door of the House of God that had for years been locked and forsaken; and was he left alone? Apparently one might think so, and there has been days when he perhaps has cried out even in the voice of the Master in his hour of most distress, "Ete, Ete, lana, sabachthan!" The Lord heareth and understandeth. He also gives succor to all that call on Him. Today there is not opened in His name a place more thoroughly dedicated than the little Baptist church of Redlands. On Sunday the feet of young and old find their way to the little church around the corner, which they have learned to love so well. The walls of the old church have been rebuilt and a new spirit of hope and good fellowship and peace lie enthroned there. They love to gather there in prayer thru the week and even to talk on the Master's work. We knew of his earnestness of purpose, and always said that some day he would make good, but hadn't thought much of it for the present time; oh, a matter of years we thought perhaps. Then it came as such a pleasant surprise; Sunday morning in his another church, Mt. Zion of this city, we sat with eyes stretched and mouth apart in awe as with such force and earnestness the words of Truth fell from his lips upon our hungered ears, purging our very souls. The eye of our very souls were opened and we saw as if it were one of the prophets as of old a veritable man of God. He has gone forth and conquered the forces of evil, even himself. We forsee nothing but the good that will come of the work of a young man so equipped. Along the line of progress, East Los Angeles is to have another laundry operated by members of the Race. For a goodly number of years it seemed that Central avenue, in the way of business enterprises was to be peopleled by cafes, but alas! the Race has opened its eyes to the realization that it can do other things in other lines. The new enterprise promised is the Model Laundry, to be owned, controlled and operated by some of our pioneer citizens, among whom are: W. C. Hammond, Press, Harry Lewis, Secy.; C. H. Hodge, Treas. The California Eagle sees no reason why several laundries of this kind should not succeed, and such men as these with the New Model Laundry, with something like 35,000 Colored housekeepers to draw from, most of whom have their work done outside, we see no reason why it should not succeed.
