THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE Charles S. Gilpin in "Emperor Jones" at the Mason O PHONE 150-44 VOL. 36 Charles CHARLES S. GILPIN, GIFTED ACTOR, TO BE SEEN HERE IN THE "EMPEROR JONES." At last, the opportunity so eagerly aided by our theatre-goers has some. Charles S. Gilpin, the greatest actor of our race and generation, will be seen at the Mason Opra House for one week, beginning Monday night. January 15th, in Eugene O'Neill's now famous play, "The Emperor Jones." Three years ago Mr. Gilpin was selected for the leading role in this play after a dozen actors were tried out at rehearsals. He was then comparatively unknown, having had only one part on Broadway, that of the slave in "Abraham Lincoln." After his first performance in the difficult role of the "Emperor Jones," it was unanimously conceded by New York's most eminent critics that a new star had risen in the theatrical firmament—a star still shining with undimmed brilliancy. Mr. Gilpin's extraordinary voice is one of the greatest factors in making A GRREAT REVIVAL WILL THE TURK LEAD THE NE GRO TO ARMAGEDDON? The leading thinkers of the world are wondering what will be the outcome of "the rising tide of color" which is sweeping over the world. Evangelist O. A. Troy, B. A., Los Angeles' youngest evangelist of color, will present the above subject at the East 36th Street church, next Sunday evening at 8:00 o'clock. In these evangelistic-revival meetings which will be held on Sunday, Evangelist Troy will handle in a Evangelists Troy will handle In a clear, concise manner many topics of the Bible which relate to the Negro and present day conditions. Subjects: Tuesday night, "World Perils which Point to Armageddon;" Thursday, "What Does Armageddon mean to the World?" The East 36th Street Church which is located at 666 East 36th Street may be reached by taking car S. Stereoptican pictures will illustrate many of these lectures. A rousing song service will begin each evening at 7:45. Miss Mayme Lowe in connection with the Jubileat Chorus will assist at these meetings. Dr. E. Bur him the most talked of actor of our time. He began his professional career as a vocalist, and started with a splendid natural singing voice which was developed under the patronage of musical artists who became interested in his career. His vocal organ has been likened to a well-tuned musical instrument. A clear enunciation and a vibrantly tuneful voice are indications of a rare intelligence and an artistic temperament—qualifications which have won enthusiastic plaudits for this gifted Race player wherever "The Emperor Jones" has been presented. "The Emperor Jones," a unique and gripping drama, is in eight scenes; its locale is a West Indian island; it will be presented in this city exactly as it was for an entire season at the Princess Theatre, New York, and during its runs in Boston, Chicago and Philadelphia. SUNDAY SCHOOL CONGRESS GOES TO INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA. THE CAPITAL OF THE HOOSIER STATE JUNE 13-18. Indianapolis, Ind., (Special) This city will entertain the Sunday School Congress June 13-18, 1923 according to announcementmade here this week, coming from Rev. Henry Allen Boyd of Nashville, Tennessee, and confirmed by Doctors B. F. Ferrell, Lewis, Morris and others, who are already making preparations to take care of the throng of Sunday school workers that will be in attendance. There will be an Entertainment Committee, Reception Committee, and a Committee on Homes. It will be the Mecca of Sunday school workers for the year. The announcement was created as a New Year present to the Baptist forces of the city and state. The Rev. Henry Allen Boyd was in Indianapolis Sunday, the 17th, but not a word came from him about the Congress, although Indianapolis was bidding with other cities. It was thought that since he dropped no word while here that she had lost her chance. The announcement created general satisfaction, and the Baptist leaders are being congratulated on this opportunity to entertain this National Gathering that is to be held in this city. A PAPER WITH A HEART AND SOUL LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA JANUARY 12, 1923 EAGLE EDITOR IS ACQUITTED The trial of editor J. B. Bass of this paper scheduled at the independent Church on last Wednesday night, brought out a capacity house and the trial seemed to immensely please all who came. The setting was realistic to that of a modern court room. Father W. T. Cleghorn, who acted as judge, could not be improved upon and one would think that Judge Anjueletto had again taken his seat upon the bench of the Supreme Court. Noah D. Thompson as bailiff played his part to the minute, and with all the sternness of a real bailiff brought his prodigious prisoner in iron into court. E. L. Dorsey as clerk of court played his part to the minute, and indeed it was a distinguished jury which tried the defendant. Dr. H. D. Prowd was its foreman, Dr. E. R. Driver, sub-foreman, Mrs. M. Patton and other notable citizens including officer Russell and Johnny Prowd were in the box. Then the lawyers shone forth in all their glory. S. M. Beane and Mrs. W. A. Shaw were the prosecution's best bet and right well did they function. Both of them and Mrs. Shaw certainly demonstrated that she can deliver. Then for the defense, Rev. Lightner and Mrs. J. B. Bass, they combatted the talented prosecution to a finish and won a verdict of 9 to 3 in their favor. The witnesses for the prosecution, Grant Smith, Atty. E. C. Jennings and Attorney Mason were peaches and only out done by the witnesses for the defense, Rev. N. P. Gregg and Mrs. M. B. Prentice. After this part the oratory waxed back and forth, Rev. S. M. Beane, spoke and then spoke some more, but he knew everything about civilization and was sure the defendant was guilty because woman was a mutt. His colleague, Mrs. Shaw, the way she lambasted her sex was a scream. She said woman was only a cackling thing and believe the writer when he says Mrs. Shaw knew everything and made a distinct impression as she showed woman around and around. For the defense Rev. Lightner, the wide-awake representative of woman came through for a touch down and was ably backed up by the defendant's wife, Mrs. J. B. Bass. It was a notable accession, a brilliant conception on the part of Mrs. C. E. Jennings and furnished a rare entertainment for the people who were out by the hundreds. A TALE OF OLD JAPAN Cunfucianism was carried into Japan through Corea bout 550 A.D. There seems to have been a need for such a spirit in the country. The Japanese were not slow in the work of incorporation; the system was early applied to the many natural resources and furnished unusual impetus for the new development and expansion of the empire. The Japanese modeled their government after that of the Chinese. The centralized system of government was instituted instead of the feudal forms which had prevailed for centuries. Under its influence Japan steadily grew in national and international importance until she became a dominant power among nations. Japan has some wonderful contributions in the literature of the country. Much of this work was done in the fifth century. Some manuscripts bear an earlier date. The most ancient lays are the "MANYOSHIP" commonly known as the "Collection of a Miyriad Leaves," perhaps another gift of the Eighth century. Societies were formed to study and write poetry. The chronological records of Japan are preserved in forms which crystallize the spirit and antiquity of Japan. Prose, poetry and historical records are mixed with mythical legends in which references are made dating as far back as the "Divine Age." In these writings the country is referred to as the "land of the gods." This poem, A TALE OF OLD JAPAN, is not of Japanese origin. It was written by Mr. Alfred Noyes, an eminent English scholar. The lay is purely narrative in form with the slightest tincture of description. The author confines his technic to a succession of incidents bound together by their chronological order. Strictly human in its relation to life, it is, never the less, purely Japanese in its application. We cannot say what literary value the Japanese attach to this classic, but we do know that Japanese are fond of their classical poetry. Their devotion to it has become a worship. Many of the emperors have written and collected verse which bear direct relation to the natural aspects of Japan. Such compilations teach that patriotism belongs to the simple minded folk and represents the realization in spirit between the nation and the subject. Loyalty to the country and love of its beauty are the resplendent themes that adorn many choice poems. And they cling to tenacity to the religion, legends and philosophy of their country. Thousands of books, the work of European authors, have been circulated in Japan, many having found admission into the educational structure, but thus far no propaganda has been able to alienate the affection of the little yellow man for his native land. It is the pride and glory of the nation that their great achievements have been made in the name and for the sake of humanity. The work of the early ages is not to undone by contact with sinister influences, which operating under a supposed ban of progressive liberation of Japan's racial potentialities, would dictate humiliating terms and undermine her national prowess. That can never be: religion, patriotism, family pride are one in Japan. SHIN'TO, the national faith, teaches that Japanese who are faithful to the Empire need no other creed, or doctrine for their guidance; certainly not a man-written creed to direct their destiny when the author himself has not the power to reflect. There are a few great epic and didactic poems in the Japanese language. The stage and drama are rapidly entwining the social and educational systems. Plays are being produced in which plot and intrigue are magnificently worked out by a logical sequence of cause and effect. A TALE OF OLD JAPAN IS A CLASSIC the great charm of which is simplicity of language and its picturization of a most simple life. It is full of allusions to nature, telling of the bright moon, the purple sea, the Peacock islands, Dragons of Old Japan. Thought, Craft and Mystery. Take a trip to Japan. Acquaint yourself with these little stories in order to understand the play which will be given at Gamut Auditorium the second week in February. COLERIDGE-TAYLOR MUSIC CO. FORUM'S RALLY The announced rally by the Forum to raise its quota of $50,00 for the East Side Mothers' Club on last Sunday was a grand success. It went over the top with an onward rush and raised some $78,00 or more. The various numbers were most highly appreciated by the big crowd present. The singing by the girl imates of the home came in for a most liberal applause. The duet by Mess dames Patton and Graham was heartily applauded. President-McKinney spoke forcibly and well on the duty of the Forum to the home and kindred organizations. Lewis K. Beeks made a well worded and timely address, while J. W. Coleman starred as the finance king of the occasion. Mrs. Cassel and Edwards on behalf of the home made very entertaining and beautiful remarks. SURPASSES THEM ALL THE METROPOLITAN BAPTIST CHURCH Less than six months ago Rev. M. C. Carter and a little band of earnest churchmen took over a neat little church property at 37th and Paloma Sts. At first to the casual on-looker it was almost pathetic to see a young man practically single-handed undertake such a gigantic proposition. From every source from which the young Brother Carter turned for assistance there came discouragement, but this sprightly oak in the Baptist forest turned aside from all paths of discouragements, and has grown so rapidly in his effort to erect a modern but model church, that the entire ministry of the city looks on with admiration. Associated with Rev. Carter as Choir director is Mme. Te Outley who has so soon developed a Choir or Chorus at this church that is not easily matched in Los Angeles. On Sunday afternoon, Dec. 31st Mme. Outley entertained the public with a high class musical that easily demonstrated her ability as a directress. Los Angeles Welcomes Race's Wealthiest Woman MRS. LEILA WALKER WILSON OF NEW YORK AGAIN A WELCOME VISITOR IN LOS ANGELES. Mrs. Leila Walker Wilson 'arrived in Los Angeles this week, and is staying at the residence of her nieces, Misses Angela and Gladys Breedlove, 1449 W. 35th Street. This popular Eastern spent some time in our city two years ago, while en route to Honolulu, and made a host of friends, who are delighted to welcome her into our midst once more. Mrs. Wilson, known as Annette richest Race woman, is the daughter of Madame C. J. Walker, whose estate she inherited a few years ago Madame Walker amassed a great fortune by the manufacture and sale of cosmetics. She launched the business with a capital of Two Dollars, and by sheer energy and a rare executive ability, developed it into one of the greatest of its kind in the world. Mrs. Wilson is carrying on her mother's work and has recently returned from an extended trip to Egypt and other North African and Near Eastern Countries, where she went with a view to extending the already vast market for products manufactured by her firm. Mrs. Wilson who is greatly liked for her charming personality, as well as admired and respected for her business enterprise, will be the recipient of many social-honors while here.

DEDICATED TO THE MEMORY OF MADAM E. AZALIA HACKLEY By Eva Cartar Buckmfr. If I could I'd paint a word picture I'd choose a rare study in grey Not somber no, no, but as cherry And glad as the fair month of May, Azalia the flower, the study. Speak softly and gently the name our own, but the Giver hath called her. To, from whence her loving soul came her bird like voice charming and happy. happy. She sang as a bird sings its lay. Your heart and your very soul thril ing With joy as she sang on her way. Oh, she could have gone from her people. But she was too loyal and true: She saw in them beauty and goodness And thus found her own work to do. She taught them by precept to value The girls He upon them had bestowed To know there was ever a duty To Him and to self that they owed. The wonderful chorus is training To sing to the Maker above. And happy was she in her mission For this was the work of her love. Tis said there'll be singing in heaven And that there'll be something to do. Perhaps if the Master is willing She'll take up her own work anew. A New Rev. R. B. Porter of Little Rock. Arkansas, has for the past two weeks conducted meetings at the Mt.

Extension of time has been granted photographers entering the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce picture contest according to announcements just received. Interruption of outdoor camera work by the rains determined the organization to set head the closing date to January 23, allowing thereby three weeks after the original date ending the contest.

HOME OF NUTS AND WEAK-MINDS By: WILLIAM PICKENS Mr. Chandler Owen TALKS ON LOVE RESITATE! THE MESSENGER HAS WO EAR. ON SALE BY C. G. DUNSCOMB A 2305 Seventh Avenue --- POLICE In loving memory of our lamented husband, father and relative, William H. Shores, who departed this life and went to receive his well-earned reward on January 13, 1922. He is no longer with us: but his was a loving nature, and the many active years of his long life were filled to repletion with noble and kindly deeds. To know him was to love him, and his memory lives imperishable in the hearts of his friends and of his dear ones. MRS. W. H. SHORES, & FAMILY. IN THE MUSIC WORLD. Although the American people spend millions of dollars every year for music, they are surprising how few really appeal to the music of the higher type. In fact, even among the professional class there are very few musicians who really love the work of the three "Brahms," viz. Bach, Beethoven, and Brahms. Brahms is seldom played by the great Symphony Orchestras, Bach If You Fail To Read----THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE----You May Never Know It Happened The Comeback! is tolerated by many and loved by few, and Beethovenese much abused and murdered by many performers. We know that this sounds a bit pessimistic but then, 'Truth is stranger than fiction.' Besides, we think that the performers are to blame largely for the likes and dislikes of the public. Many performers believe that they can render every style of music from the era of Scarlatti down to Deussey, and in making up their programs they try to include every style in existence. Before going further we may state that no person has ever nor will ever be able to do the music of every period equally well. One will excel in some particular way. Percey Grainger, believes that a performer should stick to his strongest side in public and he practices what he preaches. The singer is not likely to offend so often as the instrumentalist for the simple reason that his limitations are greater. A vocalist who does the coloratura, lyric and dramatic styles equally well is somewhat of a novelty, if there be such. Yet the instrumentalist will ltry to play all styles and feel peeved if the critics do not praise everything that he does. He should play them, yes, but only in his studio or practice room. In public he should choose the styles best suited for him. Without a doubt the day will come when audiences will demand of the performer those styles for which he is best suited, and then a higher standard of appreciation will have been reached. No wonder that the man in the street runs when you say classical music. He usually gets a poor imitation of the real article. The managers are to blame also when they demand a certain style of program for their community, regardless of ability of the artist for rendering it. They are afraid to allow an artist to be his real self. Many times he is forced to play things that he detests in order to gain popular approval. The public should be taught to accept an artist on his merit and either take or leave his artistic offering. Art should never be carried to the people but the people to Art. The public likes jazz and pays to hear it. They will like good music and pay to hear it also if they are led gradually to it. Thus, with all of our millions that we spend yearly for music, we do not measure up in appreciation to the European countries where they spend in thousands. Y. M. C. A.

Lightner, Pastor. The first Sunday of the New Year was a record breaker in many res- pects. Following the very interesting session of the Sunday school, the Pastor or occupied the pulpit, using as his theme: "Strength for the New Year." Text: "Go strengthen thyself," 1 Kings 20.22. Many visitors were present among the worshippers who expressed delight for the services. At the Annual Meeting of the church held Wednesday evening of last week, splendid reports were made by all departments of the church, indicating that the past year was one of great advancement in the church. The Communion was postponed to Sunday Jan. 14th when will there be the Installation of the newly elected officers and the reception of new members. The pastor will bring special messages at both hours. The Illustrated lecture by Miss Kathrine Brooks, Sunday night, was very illuminating and instructive. You're always cordially welcomed to all the services of this growing church. WATTS M. E. MISSION Sunday was a great day at the mission. The pastor preached a great sermon. John 9:25. "One thing I know whereas I was blind but now I see." Our rally is on. We are asking every member and friend for $5.00 on our building fund. Come and worship with us. You are welcome. Watch us grow. Bishop A. W. Leonard will be with us this Sunday and will preach at the evening hour. Hear him. Last Sunday's communion service broke all records with 377. The pastor's sermon both morning and evening were fitting samples of the kind of preaching the people are to hear this year. Wesley is determined to move forward this year by leaps and bounds Watch us go over the top in every way. Among the specials next Sunday will be the pastor's sermon on "Encouraging Workers," a solo by Mr. C. W.

A special effort will be made to raise at least $700,00 in cash and take subscriptions covering the $10,000 indebtedness for repairs to be paid by October 1st of this year. Come prepared to move with the crowd to victory. WARD CHAPEL B. R. Guy. Pastor Last Sunday was a grand day at this church. General class and sacrament day. Every Christian present had a message. The Holy Spirit manifested itself. One person joined the church and 4 persons knelt at the altar for conversion. The S. S. was well attended. Teachers for ensuing year were elected. At night, the pastor spoke from the text, "When thou passest through the waters I will be with thee, and through the rivers they shall not overflow thee; When thou walkest through the fire thou shall not be burned." A number of visitors were present both morning and evening. After the evening sermon, two persons came to the altar for prayer. Prayer and class meeting last Wednesday night were good. The Woman's Mite Missionary Society met Monday at 2:30 p. m. Trustee day, Jan. 14. Every member and friend please contribute 50 cents each, or more, for the trustee department. Sunday morning the pastor delivered a message of gospel cheer to the church. All the meetings of the day were uplifting and inspiring. After the morning's sermon Mrs. Kathrine Keith, our missionary, called the members in a missionary meeting, which was one of real missionary culture. The choir under the efficient leadership of Madame Viola Harris Brandon rendered an excellent musical program. Sunday evening, by special request, the pastor and the chorus held a meeting at the South Park Christian Church (white). Words are inadequate to express the responses of appreciation showered by that church on our pastor and his chorus. The chorus carried twenty-five voices to the Wilshire Christian Church Wednesday, the 10th, full report will be found elsewhere in this paper. The pastor and chorus have several engagements in the next six weeks to appear at some of the largest churches in and out of the city. Regular services next Sunday. BIRCH ST. CHRISTIAN CHURCH- The glorious impression of the services last Lord's Day, at this church, will long linger as a happy memory in the hearts of those who attended. The attendance was most gratifying; members and a host of visitors alike enjoyed the Gospel feast. Our Minister brought a wonderful New Year's message at 11 a. m. His subject was, "The Christian's Objective." He took as his text these words, "This one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before. I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God, in Christ Jesus:" Phil. 3:13,14. It is impossible, he said, "to live the double life; you cannot live as a Christian and as a hypocrite; you cannot live by the dead pass. Don't impede your own progress with suspicious matter. At 8:00 p. m. Elder Jacobs preached an able sermon from the Lord's Prayer, Matt. 6. This sermon was full of wholesome instruction and was received with benefit by all. Our cup of joy overflowed when a bright, strong young man came forward and was received into the church. The pastor will occupy the pulpit next Lord's Day. Preaching, 11:00 a. m. and 88:00 p. m. Bible School, 9:45 a. m. and Christian Endeavor, 7:00 p. m. Come and worship with us. All Welcome! FIRST A. M. E. ZIION CHURCH— Corner of Pico and Paloma. Rev. W. E. Shaw. Past.—Res. 1217 Paloma Street. A large congregation was out on the first Sunday in the New Year. The pastor, who has been indisposed for the past week, gave a brief but forceful sermon from Joshua 3:4: "For ye have not passed this way heretofore." The choir was at its best. Holy Communion was administered. At 8:00 p. m, Chaplain W. H. Jones, U. S. A., lectured on the Near East Relief picture, "Seeing. Is Believing" which was exhibited at this hour. It was intensely interesting and gave an inside light concerning actual conditions and the terrible treatment of the Christians by the Turks, Public New Year Offering for church $96.00 Near East Relief Offering $20. Subscribed for Near East Relief $145.00. The pastor announced the program of the 29th Anniversary Celebration and Fair, to be held March 4th to 11th.

TRINITY BAPTIST CHURCH Sunday was a glorious day at Trinity, the members and friends giving expression of their religious feelings by telling of the many good things the master had done for them, and what they were trying to do for Him. The evening services were very impressive. The sermon by the pastor was just what all Christians should want. The theme, "Christians forgetting the things behind them, not looking backward." A beautiful sermon and text. The music by the choir under the direction of Brother A. A. Lassitir and Mrs. R. F. Green Jr. pianist, was excellent. Rev. Brother Clemmons visited with us speaking words of encouragement. A beautiful solo was sung by Mr. F. Spikes. During the service at a given time a presentation to Father Lawrence from the Pastor's Aid Society was made by Iso. Lassiter. The church covenant was recited by all present. The Lord's Superior was administered the Pastor presiding. The newly elected officers of the Sunday school were installed by the pastor, Rev. Eldridge. Brother Amos A. Lassiter, Superintendent.

In every ugy there are men who willingly sacrifice aggrandizement of self and mere material gain in order that they may give to the world a new thought or ideal, 4 new inspiration.

When they have heard the’ call for service to their fellowmen they forsake old beaten, paths, pleasures, and lifeiong environments, and devote their lives even in-unexplored regions to the re: alization of their dreams. Such a man was Jack Contier. He had determined to g6 through school and his education. During his high school and college careers, Contier worked doggedly. At times he was as chauffeur by a wealthy of the city or hé worked on ene of the Colored newspapers.

Among the many unfavor jable conditions existing there, the |speaker had mentioned: Inefficient |teachers. the lack of proper medical | facilities and hospitals. She had said further that the girls were not given opportunity to learn vocational trades and they must go to separate’ schools. “Come over to Africa and help us— |we need you!” These had been the last words of the burning appeal. - Con. tier had listened and understood. If there was anything that he could do, he would willingly. So Contier, being a student, of his tory, decided to go to Africa anil study [her ‘ancient culture and development las well as her present conditions. He | received his Master of Arts degrec | and, securing aid from his former em- | Plover and friend. gad several univer- sities, Jack sailed for Northern Ni: lgeris, Africa, His final destination, [newever. was Yola, one of the chief cities of that section located on the River Binue. | Contier bad read quite extensively archaeological accounts, and other lit |erature pertaining to Africa. And as he sailed, he had visions of the forest: land. of the lion and his lair, of fresh |trails and stubborn entanglements. /Yex, he saw powerful chiefs, and na [tives revelling in their native gandi [ness or engaging in primitive activi ties. Jack finally reached the city of his This noble man and his wife had been “engaged in missionary work for many “years in that vieinity. They extended him hospitality and showered bim with “questions concerning America, their Tnative land, and about the conditions of his fellow racemen, Jack told | them of his mission and way promised ‘aid. | One afternoon Contier ‘returned to the Fringes after a day of observation and study about the city and met the | daughter of the missionaries. Her /name was Anelo. She had attended a “representative college in America for ‘two years and had just returned from ‘London where she completed her Istudies, Contier noted. the girl's /beauty and personality. And was re- uctant to leave late that evening “when the very interesting conversa- ton ended. Jobn Fringes planned a trip for Con- ‘tier to a neighboring village where jdwelt the descendants of a great cul- ‘tivated race, and where he might have counsel with thetr wisé and powerful chief, Mantuba Jack and the missionary were wel- ieee into Mantuba’s village. The burden of primitive government bad ‘told on the aged chief, He bore also ‘the marks of his tribe which he ruled and loved. His six wives, hig son, war- riors and all obeyed his orders and held great rexpect for him. This tribe, according to Mantuba, was the last of a once highly cultured Tuce whose bistory dates back into antiquity. They were great builders, artists, ad iron workers, and very energetic. “T have come from America to de- vote my life to archavological studies.” said Conticr to thé chief through Joho Fringes who was interpreting. —Per- haps you can bolp me in some way.” The chief smiled, “Good, we are proud of our ancestors. They were a great people. They built a city, which is now buried, in which they showed remarkable ability as archi- tects, and tradesmen.” Mantuba drew Contier and ringes into a secret chamber. Jack marveled at the rich, elaborate settings and. original designs and variously colored velvet and decorations. He thought how strangely, simflar were some of these things to those of American In- dian tribes he had sven in museums, and of which he had reud. Jack noted all of this with amaze- ment. The chief took him to another part of the spacious room. “Here,” he said, "These are some of our own works of which we are proud.” Man- tuba placed some costumes before him. “You notice the original du- signs and infusion of color, Many European countries have Imitated our color schemes. ‘This material was made from the bark of trees some [thirty years ago, and it still looks as though it was made today.” Attendants spread other goods be- fore the visitors, and pottery, and spears, knives and other instruments of war. “There is the buried city yonder where the sun looks down from his highest point, and where time has gone on in its flight, leaving it to de- cay further. But I know the location. There is a secret trail by which the age eg ea oe ‘he some day.” They sat on rugs’ which Contier knew were very. costly. Maistuba continued: “And there is some valu. able information, and relics and a treasure of elephant tusks and dia monds and gold, glittering and beau ‘tifal, unearthed from Africa's heart." |, Contler istenvd.

Life is too complex for: anyone to have certain set ideas concerning | it or to make certain set laws governing it, When the molten mass began, to form itself into the earth and water and the living protoplasm began to evolve itself from the unicellular am- oeba- into the greater and more com: posite structure known as man, one of the instituted and indisputable laws of life was that some should lead and others should follow. The wolf pack, the herd of sheep, the flock of gense, nd the clephant herd show that not man only is capable of regarding lead- ership, but the lower animal lite as well. ‘The poet has expressed: “That just experience tells in every soil, That those who think ast govern’ those who toil.” It is for those who ure ruled to de- cide whether that ruling fs to be for better or worse. 4 If the question of the world’s great- eat neceusity should: be asked, the an- ‘swer might be “money.” Part of the se is in chaog today because of much money. Rather more credit than more money; but the greatest need of the world today 1s leadership. ‘That leadership is not acquired or strengthencd as a stone takes on sub- stance from the outside, Mut rather as & nautilus builds up its beautiful shell, which is not only for beauty, ‘but also for protection, by giving of itself is time aes by . It is acquired hy a leading ont of a man’s inborn facnities: and that leading out is the cortect and unquestionable definition of education : As the world’s. greatest need is leadership, and that leadership must be embodied in an nnderstanding of all af its functions: leadership is the xreatest and most complete advantage of higher education.

RICHARDSON ASSUMES REINS OF GOVERNMENT On last Tuesday, the Honorable Friend W. Richardson assumed the office of Governor of the sovereign State of California, to which high office he had been elected by the people, with a tremendous majority. He takes up his duties with an announced program of economy, to result in saving millions of dollars annually to the taxpayers of this State—in striking contrast to the administration which he succeeds. The people are now waiting to see the new Governor bring these things to pass. It is also his declared intention to be governor of ALL the people: it will be his policy to see to it that each and every citizen shall receive at his hands due and timely consideration. With these expressed sentiments put into active practice, California will truly enter into a new era in its body politic, and every man and woman will realize that the door of hope and opportunity is indeed still open! So brazen, mendacious and malicious have been the attempts to cripple and maim us, that we simply cannot get that other cheek turned. We are on our way to a greater unity of all our forces, as well as greater efforts to align ourselves in the front ranks as real producers. Our old-time visitors, the "Broad Axe" came to our desk, resplendent in its glory as a king-pin in journalism. The Christmas edition is a creditable achievement indeed. Perturbed are those who wear their hearts upon their sleeves—but they should remember that the half has never been told. The animosities of the past are fading away in some places, and a spirit of justice and fair-play between man and man is at hand! Let us all join in the chorus, that this spirit shall prevail to the utmost. The splendid spirit of the good people of Los Angeles was characteristically manifested by their generous remembrance of the sixty-three imprisoned men of the 24th Infantry on Christmas day. Such a spirit will not set them back in the least. THE BIG "UNS" THE ROCKING THE BOAT. (By: J. B. BASS) We have stated on divers occasions, that we have no fight to make on any church or denomination. We stand for the PROGRESS OF ALL. During the period of our editorial existence, we have given more space to the various denominations for the exploitation of the work they are doing, than almost any other Race paper in this country, save purely church papers. We have never hesitated to stand for a square deal for every denomination, for every church, be it small or large; in fact, all have had our moral, and to the best of our ability, financial support. Of course, impersonally, we hvae made criticisms, which is our editorial prerogative and right. And we might have tossed some bricks; in fact, we must have, for the hounds are baying at us. They are neither satained nor content to live on the fat of the land and at the expense of the people, en- If You Fail To Read----THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE----You May Never Know It Happened For Your Convenience FREQUENT AN Se Be All Important Se Within Radius of 75 Save Your Autom Travel To and F FREQUENT AND DEPENDABLE All Important So.

They snap and snarl when the Soaring Eagle sounds a note of progress, and calls the attention of the people to certain conditions. W. R. Carter, Of Kansas Fame, Alarmed We do not blame our former Kansas townman, W. R. Carter, who brought Jim-Crow—as well as other things—to Kansas, and fears for his safety as he blooms forth in California as the big I AM—NEGRO BAPTIST Leader—and seeks to make of the Baptists of Southern California an organization of sap-suckers, of supplicants at the feet of the California white people, asking them for something. Who is he? Is he the anchor of a kingdom? Or is he a fit subject for a spiritual balloon ascension? At this age going forth as the white man to line the Negroes to the same step he attempted to line them up to in Kansas—with, the result that it became so hot for him that he speedily sought greener fields in the sunny clime of California. Not satisfied nor content is he, as he lines up another preacher who is obligated to him, and a layman, too, who has sucked the Baptist tit almost dry by a continuation in office, they come forth to do battle with the Soaring Eagle. They want to fight (they ought to pray!) Well, if they think we are going to back up, they have another thought coming. The writer has the most profound respect for all the Baptist people, and many of their foremost and ablest leaders are numbered among our personal friends. These are of the plain, common every-day people: they are ours and we are theirs. Their progress on these shores is so interwoven with that of the Soaring Eagle that all the Carters, and their militant supporters, who might be brought forth, could not sever the tie that binds us. The Baptist people know that we have no right on the Baptist Church, and they know, also, that we are not going to back up on any propaganda which tends to bring harm to them. They know that some Baptist preachers (not many) are not what they should be: that they put money before religion. That they want to fight and kill off others, instead of lifting them up. They are the sort of gentry the Soaring Eagle will not stand for, and at whom we are going to strike, every time they show their heads. This old talk about the Editor of the Eagle being an A. M.

And we are strong supporters of the National Baptist Convention, because it is an organization seeking to hoe its own row, and not asking alms of the white man. Come on, brethren! The fight (if it might so be called) is of your won making, not ours! But we've got your number, and would be small indeed should we fail to strike back at the mendacious methods used by our former townsman and friend, W. R. CARTER. MR. AND MRS. ALBRITTON CELEBRATE 40TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY. On December 25 of last year Mr. and Mrs. Julius Albritton of Council St., gathere dtogether one of the most interesting groups that the writer has been privileged to interview in many moons. The occasion, which we are sorry to be late in recording, was the celebration of the 40th Anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. Albritton, and according to genuine Southern style they laid a feast that was not only sumptuous, but mammoth, and gathered around the board were daughters and sons-in-law, sons and daughters-in-law, grand children and a few close friends of the family. Mr. and Mrs. Albritton are pioneer settlers and reputable citizens being among the larger property owners of the Wiltshire District, and the event of the celebration of their 40th Wedding Anniversary brought forth many tokens of appreciation and expressions of love from family and friends.
