MIRACULOUSLY ESCAPE DEATH
By John Emery Prowd
AUTOMOBILE TURNS OVER WITH PARTY OF SIX ON WAY TO ELSINORE
Leaving Los Angeles Sunday afternoon at 3:00 o'clock, a party of six, including Mr. and Mrs. Robt. Lawrence, Portland, Ore.; Mr. and Mrs. Chas. E. Pearl, Los Angeles; Mrs. Walter Offord, Oakland, Calif., and Mr. J. E. Prowd, headed for Elsinore, where Mr. and Lawrence along with Mrs. Offord intended spending a few days while on a visit here.
The party left in a Seven-Passenger Cadillac, taking the route through Pomona and Riverside. At Puente they made a short stop to have the brakes on the car loosened, as they were a little tight and were hot.
The Accident
After having the brakes all set they journeyed safely on until reaching a section known as Wineville, about four miles before reaching Riverside. At this point the car slipped from the paved highway and struck the sand on the right. Mr. Pearl, who was driving, immediately tried to swing the car back on the highway, and as soon as the back right wheel stepped up on the pavement—which was wet—the car skidded. The car shot straight to the open field on the left of the highway, careening all the while to the right. It was now beyond the control of the driver and in a few seconds it had turned over a couple of times; when it stopped turning it was laving or; left side.
THE United
Mr. Prowd was the first out from the mass of wreckage. Mr. Lawrence was the next to be seen. Mrs. Pearl, after the car ceased to roll, had landed on her feet, and was standing up in the car holding her head. Mrs. Offord and Mrs. Lawrence had to be dragged out from where they were wedged in between the smashed-in top and the back seat. Mr. Pearl, who seemed to have been the most seriously hurt was hurried by Mr. Prowd in an offered car, to the Riverside Hospital. Mr. Prowd returned for the rest of the party, all were taken to the hospital. Upon examination it was learned that Mrs. Lawrence had suffered a dislocated shoulder and a broken bone; Mrs. Offord had a fractured right shoulder; Mr. Lawrence was crushed in the right shoulder, but not seriously; Mr. Pearl had his chest and stomach severely hurt as he was pinned in by the steering wheel when the car turned over and suffered much pain as a result; Mrs. Pearl and Mr. Prowd were apparently unhurt.
To the Rescue
Mr. A. L. Johnson and Mr. E. W. Walker, were both very kind in offering their services and the use of their cars—coming all the way from Los Angeles at nine, and ten o'clock respectively. Mr. Johnson brought back Mr. and Mrs. Pearl in his Haynes Sedan, and Mr. Walker brought the rest in his Marmon.
The car, which was later towed into the Mission Garage, had the front right wheel broken to splinters, the windshield and deflectors completely broken and the top demolished. It will remain there until it is decided what's to be done with it later. Mr. Pearl is at his home recovering gradually. Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence are also recovering slowly at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Pearl, whose guests they are.
JOHN J. JOSEPHS, ARTISTIC PHO TOGRAFHER, LATEST ADDITION TO BUSINESS CIRCLES
Los Angeles' business element must branch out, not merely along the already-overcrowded lines of cafes and pool halls, but in every field of useful and lucrative endeavor, and prove to the world that it can successfully conduct any manner of commercial enterprise already sponsored by its business ancestors.
Hence, the establishment here by Mr. John J. Josephs of a high class photographic studio, to be operated on a large scale, is a notable step forward in our business progress.
It is something over ten years since Mr. Josephs first took up his residence in our midst. Recently he has been East, during which time he completed a course at the New York Institute of Photography. He is now returned and has opened a Studio at 14th and Central avenue, equipped with every facility for high class photography, and will specialize in artistic traits.

MY TRIP TO THE EDUCATIONAL BOARD THAT MET AT COLUMBIA, SOUTH CAROLINA
En route I stopped over at Kansas City, Missouri. I was met at the train by Rev. F. Jesse Peck, D. D. President of the Western University at Quindaro, Kan. From there we went to call on Bishop W. T. Vernon, who had just returned from the hospital. From there we went to the University and from there to the residence of Dr. Peck. We then went to the home of Dr. Wittenburg, the pastor of Allen Chapel Church, Kansas City, Mo. There we met Bishop H. B. Parks and Dr. Isaacs P. E. of that district. At 5:30 o'clock I took the train for Columbia, S. C. I was joined at Memphis, Teenn., by Dr. A. S. Jackson, Secretary of Education and Dr. Howard and others, arriving at Atlanta, Georgia at 9:30 p. m. We were met by The Rt. Rev. Bishop W. A. Fountain, who took us to his home, and in that beautiful residence we were wonderfully entertained while I was in Atlanta. I visited Mrs. Fountain's mother and father. Mrs. Fountain's mother is an invalid and her daughters have installed a radio, where she sits Sunday mornings and enjoys the sermon and songs of praise. She has a wonderful personality. I was never so hospitably entertained in my life, as I was in the home of Bishop Fountain. The home is so disciplined it is a real pleasure to visit there.
I also visited Morris Brown College. There I met Miss Ruth Prince, the daughter and Mr. and Mrs. William Prince of Pasadena, who is making good as teacher and is loved by all. She is coming to spend her vacation in California.
The next morning we left for Columbia arriving there at 8:30 p. m. We were at the station by Rev. T. H. Wiseman, D. D. of Bethel A. M. E. Church, who had made ample preparation for all the delegates that came.
The Educational Board met at 9:00 Tuesday morning in the chapel of Allen University.
The faculty and the student body numbering $50 filed in for review. Dr. R. W. Nice, A. M. D. D., President of Allen University introduced the Right Rev. W. D. Chappelle, D. D., who introduced Bishop I. N. Ross president of the Educational Board, who delivered a short address full of enthusiasm and food for thought. He then introduced Prof. A. S. Jackson, the orator of the race. His address was a masterpiece, highly appreciated by all present. We then adjourned to meet at 2:00 p. m. It was said by all present that it was the most successful meeting from every viewpoint that the Educational Board had ever had. Every phase of our school was discussed and recommendations were made for the needed improvements.
In the evening the school gave a reception for the board. Dr. Wiseman invited me to preach for him that evening, as they were closing a rally. Bethel was packed to the doors. The rally was a decided success, the services seemingly enjoyed by all present.
Wednesday the reception to the Bishops of the A. M. E. Church was given. Welcome addresses were made by His Honor W. A. Coleman, Mayor of Columbia and His Honor T. J. McLeod, Governor of South Carolina. And also by one of the District Judges. Their slogan was all men up, and no men down, and that every man in the State regardless of creed or color will have equal protection under the law. They realized that it was a big job, but by the assistance of the leading colored men of that state, they would be able to put it over. I was very much surprised to hear these heads of the state express themselves so openly and freely. The responses made fully measured up to the occasion. Thursday morning the Bishop's Council opened with sermon preached by Bishop Joshua H. Jones, D. D., which was a masterpiece. Communion was served to possibly 1500 people. The bishops then went into council, and at 2:00 O'clock the Connectional Council met in the Auditorium of the Church.
The Council consisted of the general officers, presiding Elders, and ministers from every district. The 18th Episcopal District had no representative. I joined the council, was added to the financial board of the council and enrolled 15 ministers of the 188th Episcopal District and paid their admission fee. The Presidents of the various schools had their meetings. Questions of vital importance were discussed by the various presidents of our schools.
Friday afternoon the information came from the council chamber that a change of Bishops had been made.
A PAPER WITH A HEART AND SOUL
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA APRIL 7, 1923
Bishop B. F. Lee, the Senior Bishop of the bench had been assigned to the 118th Episcopal District and Bishop W. A. Fountain to the 9th Episcopal District.
At 3:00 p. m. news came that big Bethel A. M. E. Church, Atlanta, Ga. was on fire. It threw a gloom over the great gathering. At 5:00 p. m. I left for Atlanta, Ga., arriving at 8:330 a. m. next morning. We went from the train to the place where old Bethel once stood, only to see the smouldering smoke ascending from a wrecked building and hundreds of mothers and fathers walking around the wreckage weeping where once stood big Bethel.
Sunday morning in company with Bishop Fountain we attended the Second A. M. E. Church where I preached to a large and appreciative audience. At 8:00 we attended the Third Church where I preached to another large congregation.
Monday morning I left for Cincinnati, and from there on to Chicago. There I was met by Dr. O. M. Tamer and Dr. McCracker, P. E. of the Chicago District where I was taken to Grater Bethel A. M. E. Church, 42nd and Grand Boulevard, pastored by Dr. Tamer where I spent four hours. It is truly a great building, it is said to be the largest church owned by Negroes in, the world, the cost of which was $91,000. From there I went to Omaha, where I saw that great foundation for a $100,000 church of which Dr. W. C. Williams is the pastor. I then left for Los Angeles. On my arrival I found my district in fine condition, every man at his post and doing a great work. It is not only an honor to preside over a group of ministers such as these, but a pleasure beyond expression. "Be of good courage you are keeping pace with other districts of this great church."

Famous Editor and Orator To Fill Many Engagements in the West.
The desire of the local public, as expressed in numerous letters and telephone messages, to the Eagle office is to hear THE NEW SOLUTION OF THE NEGRO PROBLEM propounded by Chandler Owen, when he delivers what will probably be his only lecture in Los Angeles, at Labor Temple, Monday night, May 7th, under the auspices of the Eastside Mother's Club.

Grand Opening Of Undertaking Establishment.
Grand Opening Of Undertaking Establishment.
CONNER-JOHNSON & CO., UNDERTAKERS, HAVE BRILLIANT AFFAIR
On Saturday and Sunday, March 31, and April 1st, Conner-Johnson Company threw open to the public their undertaking establishment at 1400 17th street, Los Angeles.
Quite often, in judging the merits of a Colored business concern, one speaks of it as being the fines the race has. In this particular instance, it can be truthfully stated without fear of contradiction from anyone, that Conner-Johnson Company has given to the public the finest undertaking establishment, irrespective of color, that this city can boast.
This, most creditable enterprise marks the realization of the hopes, dreams and ambitions of the senior member of the firm, Mr. Charles E. Conner, who, through many years of hardship, sacrifice and business ups and downs has, with the able and invaluable co-operation of Mr. S. P. Johnson and Mr. J. W. Griffin, worked untringly toward this materialization of his ideal—to give to his race the finest that money could create in the way of mortuary service.
The architecture of the handsome building, which is two stories in height, is Spanish-Colonial in type, and presents an aspect both imposing and pleasing.
On the first floor is the exquisitely decorated reception hall; also the two offices. A room half the length of the building on the right hand side gives ready access to three individual staterooms, where bodies lie in state for private view. The left portion of this half is the chapel, which seats 150 people, which can be increased by opening the glass doors of the
GRIFFITH JONES, EMINENT AT
TORNEY SPEAKS AT DOUG-
LAS TEMPLE
On Easter Sunday during the evening/service Griffith Jones, well-known attorney delivered an address at the Douglas Temple. The hall was packed to capacity, chairs having to be brought in for the purpose of accommodating many who were unable to secure seats.
The speaker, referring to the Easter occasion stated that it was not so important to recognize the fact that Christ had risen as it was to realize the truth that Christ should reign. "There are many" said the speaker "singing songs of praise upon this day to whom the Easter season merely means new bonnets and greater display."
Mr. Jones declared that it was incorrect to say that we are living in a Christian era and it was not true to say that Christianity had failed. "Christianity," said Mr. Jones, "has not failed, simply for the reason that it has never been tried and when the teachings of Christ are really put into effect, there will be no further need of courts, jails or penitentiaries."
"True Christianity," said the speaker "does not question a man's color but regards the character of a person as of the utmost importance." Mr. Jones states that selfishness was the great curse of the day and that until officials realized that the true spirit of Christianity was service to their fellowbeings, there would be distress and discontent in our national life.
Attorney John J. Craig was also upon the platform. Mr. Craig who is a candidate for the Board of Educatio stated that he did not desire to infringe upon the evening's service by making a political speech but he briefly referred to the now famous Hutson case in which he, acting as attorney, recovered a judgment against the Owl Drug Company for discriminating against one of our colored people. Mr. A. L. Bartlett, candidate for Congress, made some very appropriate remarks. He stated that he was in favor of the Dyer anti-lynching bill and pledged his word to our people that he would do his utmost if elected to see that no more such outrages took place as that in englewood a few months ago. Mr. Bartlett's remarks were received with much applause. Miss Florence Griffith Jones, a child of twelve years and daughter of the speaker of the evening, was

reception room, to include that addi-
tional space.
Each room is exquisitely decorated in an individual color scheme. The woodwork throughout is walnut. Mahogany furniture equips, the offices, while exquisite wicker furniture, and overstuffed pieces comprise the rest of the furnishings.
In the display room upstairs caskets are shown, ranging in style and price from the most modest, to the most elaborate and costly. The remainder of the second story comprises the living quarters of Messrs. Conner and Johnson and their families.
In the rear is the morgue, also the garage which houses the rolling stock of the company.
No pains were spared to make the reception a success, and Conner Johnson Company deserve much credit for the manner in which the guests were accommodated. Assisting in the receiving were Mrs. Charles Conner, wife of the senior partner, and Mrs. Tod Butler of Oakland, Mrs. Conner's houseguest. She came from Oakland to attend this affair as the representative of the undertaking firm of Hudson and Butler, of that city.
It is gratifying to note that the building was erected by colored workmen, under the supervision of Mr. W. H. Bryant, and much of the handsome furniture was made by skilled Race cabinet makers.
Conservatively speaking, this business represents an investment of something over forty thousand dollars. The Eagle wishes the firm of Conner-Johnson Company well-deserved success.
called upon to make a few remarks and said that she was pleased to be present because she know "that the colored people were Daddy's fridao. Dr. Shields closed the service by emphasizing the necessity of the colored people supporting those who in the past had proven themselves to be the friends of our race.
U. S. NEGROES REFSE T DIG
COAL FOR IMPERIALIST FRANCE
George S. Daugherty is a former deputy police commissioner of New York City. Now he, with his brother, Harry V. Daugherty, runs a detective agency which maintains a private uniformed police and which advertises to do "industrial plant observations."
Several weeks ago Harry V. went to Europe. When he came back he brought with him a money-making scheme, the biggest strike breaking project ever essayed by a member of the gentry which has coined millions in that gentle trade; nothing less, in fact, than a plan, all worked out and agreed upon with a Paris "labor agency," to send thousands of American Negroes as strike breakers to dig coal under the protection of French bayonets in the Ruhr.
For this, Daugherty, or the Daugherty agency, was to receive 50 cents a day for each Negro provided. It was a gorgeous plan. The only trouble was that it struck several snags immediately after the jubilant announcement was made by the gentlemen who would have profited.
According to Daugherty, it was found that not more than a handful of Negro miners could be found who were willing to dig German coal for France, even at wages equivalent to $7.00 a day and with board and lodging thrown in.
Word was received here from Washington just about the time Daugherty gave out that statement to the effect that the government would take a "thumb down" attitude if the project were brought before it.
So now it seems as if Daugherty detective agency will have to worry along on what it can make from its private police, its "shadowing," its "industrial plant observations," and from its supplying of "large bodies of men for industrial organizations" of which Daugherty told the French labor agent.

Seventeen years ago, Hugh S. A. Cummings, a refugee from the San Francisco earthquake, came to Los Angeles and put out his shingle, thereby gaining the distinction of being the first Colored druggist to establish a business West of Denver, Colorado. Our esteemed contemporary, Mr. Lucian McMahan, was at that time engaged in the drug business in Denver.
Now again, with the spirit of hte pioneer, Mr. Cumings comes to Watts. The Colored population of Watts, like the "Gentleman from Missouri," has solved the landlord problem. It is the exception of find a tenant in our group here.
Mr. Cumings has demonstrated his confidence in the future of Watts by purchasing the corner at 405 South Compton Avenue, where he has already built a store.
At this location he serves his customers with unvarying courtesy and cheerfulness. He solicits our patronage, and is in every way worthy of the same.

REV. MITCHELL'S REPLY
It is still written by William Z. Hoper, L. Booth and G. W. Hollins that I was discharged by the Wall Street Christian Church. I wish to say that I am still Pastor of the Wall Street Christian Church. There are a few stray sheep such as the individuals who sent out the falacious announcement in the paper, whom I could not pastor upon the hills of progressiveness nor by the stilled waters of enlightenment. All the faithful sheep of our flock united hand and heart in the purchase of the spacious corner, 3rd and Hooper avenue upon which we have already erected a summer place of worship. We have the faithful fellow. Also we have incorporated under the historic name of the Wall Street Christian Church.

The Grand Easter Ball, given at the Armory, Exposition Park, on Wednesday night, April 4th, by the Elks Golden West Lodge. No. 86 was one of the most brilliant affairs of its kind in Los Angeles' social annals.
Some sixteen hundred people attended this distinctive dance, and the great assemblage of beautifully gowned women and men in formal evening attire presented a brilliant spectacle.
The members of the Alpha Delta Chapter of the Alpha Phi Alpha national college Fraternity, are preparing to launch their annual Educational Campaign, beginning Sunday, April 23rd and terminating on Sunday, May 6, 1923.
Patrons of education, and the many friends of the young men will remember the successful campaign conducted by them last year and will, no doubt wish them greater success for this year.
Announcements of mass meetings, will be made in a late issue. The campaign promises to be one of the most beneficial movements undertaken by members of the race, not only in this community, but, as the campaign is national in its scope, the game can be said of other communities as well.
Mr. Hesikiah Gafford of Los Angeles made a flying trip to visit his uncle, George W. Johns, Miss Uncle Edward Jones and little sister Mary Ellen Reed of Boynton, Okla. has joined her husband who preceded her in this city.

WARD CHAPEL A. M. E. CHURCH—1252 East 25th Street.
Rev. B. R. Guy, Pastor.
Easter services at this church last Sunday were splendid. A very large attendance at the Sunday Shcoool and the children rendered a very interesting programme, which was highly appreciated by parents and others present.
The morning services were well attended and a goodly number of visitors from San Diego, and other places were present. The Pastor spoke from the text. "He is not here, He is risen."
Te Endeavor Services were very impressive and instructive.
At the evening services, the choir rendered a splendid program which was highly appreciated and complimented by the vast audience present.
The Church has been beautified inside recently, and you are cordially invited to come and help us in a Spiritual Revival from April 3rd to 15th or longer.
LINCOLN MEMORIAL CONGREGA-
TIONAL CHURCH
34th Street and Central Avenue.
Rev. E. E. Lightner, Pastor.
Easter Sunday was appropriately observed in two splendid services.
Rev. J. W. Johnson was the speaker at the morning hour and brought an excellent message on Practical Christianity. In the evening the Sunday school presented a fine program of recitations, declamations, songs and instrumental numbers. The outstanding musical number was the violin solo by master Warren Boswell.
All the little plays played their parts well. There were three accessions to the membership of the Church during the day.
The pastor left the city Monday morning for a brief rest on Catalina Island. He will return for the services Sunday April 8th. You are cordially invited to worship with us at all times.
THE FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH—Rev. A. Milton Ward, Minister
Easter Day in historic old Eight and Towne Avenue A. M. E. Church was a gala affair religiously thru out the day on last Sunday. Beginning with the early sunrise meeting when hundreds of worshipers assembled, the Sunday School at 9:30 and preaching again at 11:00 a.m. m. with the great throng that crowded the church, with a wonderful Easter consecration service by the Allen G. E. League at 6:15 p. m. and closing with a blaze of glory in the Sunday School Easter exercises at 7:30 p. m. The Sunday School procession by Reverend Ward and an intendent friend Ward was a splendid feature of the latter. The children, under direction of Mrs. Lydia Smith Ward did credit to themselves. Prof. Bartlett directed the music. Miss Catherine Bowers was the organist and the youthful players in the orchestra and the singing of the youthful solists and of the birds made the resurrection songs ring joyously. The offering for the day was $275.00.
Pastor Ward preached from the text "He Is Not Here" at 5:00 and 11:00 a. m. respectively. The Choir under the direction of Organist Elmer C. Bartlett at 5:00 a. m. and the two choirs at 11:00 a. m. excelled all past records. The soloists at the morning services were Mrs. Pearl Rose, Miss Ruth Woodruff, Mrs. Emma Smith and Mr. George Copeland. There were sixteen accessions to the membership of the church. Seven children and one adult received the rites of holy baptism. The services were great; and Easter day was well spent. The church was appropriately and beautifully decorated by the Welfare Club, assisted by other auxiliaries. Easter eggs were distributed to the children at the Sunday School]. Pastor Ward will occupy his pulpit at Eighth and Towne Avenue Church next Sunday.
The Mock Conference by Stewardess Board No. 2 and the Sewing Circle will be given at Eighth and Towne Avenue Church Monday evening, April 9, 8:15 o'clock. The public is invited.
CHRISTIAN CHURCH—
Meeting in Odd Fellows Hall at East 8th and Wall Streets.
We had a splendid service both morning and evening. Our Bible School was well represented. Brother G. W. Hollins is the superintendent. He is on the job. Our church is now without a minister. The Christian Missionary Society of Southern California will furnish us a minister each Lord's Day until such time; that we will be able to secure the services of a regular minister, which will be in the near future.
Elders G. W. Hollins, L. Booth, Wm. Z. Hopner.
BIRCH ST. CHRISTIAN CHURCH—Quite an appreciative audience witnessed the closing words of Elder F. C. Cothran, at this church Easter day. He said "This is one of the momentous days in the historical events of the calendar of the world. It is nationally celebrated as the resurrection day of our Lord. And how beetling because it occurs at the Spring time of material, vegetable life. For indeed it is a time when all nature shouts, in vociferous affirmation, resurrection, life. The forests, grass and flowers cast aside their shrouds, and leap forth from the graves of water, filling the world with the delightful and refreshing fragrance of resurrection life and beauty." He called attention to the words of the master logician of the New Testament, which are, recorded in *Icoe is itat*: "what did亚里士多德 risen from the dead, and become the first fruits of them that slept." In the argument supporting the resurrection of Christ, he said, Paul used what is known as the argument of the absurdity of the contrary supposition. These absurdities of the
contrary - supposition are five: 1st Christ is still dead. 2nd, the gospe is a delusion. 3rd, the apostles are liars. 4th, the saints are lost. 5th the Christian life is wretched misery 1 Cor. 15:13-19. How Exultingly tri umphant is his ringing conclusion But now is Christ risen from the dead and become the first fruits of them that slept. Easter program under the aurepices of the Bible School. I. J. Williams, Superintendent was presented by Sister S. Leed, and Sister F. C. Cothran at 8:00 p. m. The attendance upon this occasion was praise worthy and the children played their parts to the complete delight of all.

LINCOLN ALUMNI HONOR LIONS
INSTILL FIGHTING SPIRIT
FOR BORNON 1923
Lincoln University, Pa., March 21.—With the opening of Spring the Old Guard of the Orange and Blue motored out to honor nineteen heroes of the past football season. The students and faculty turned out en masse to witness the colorful occasion. Dr. Lewis of Philadelphia, in behalf of the Alumni Association, and the Graduate Manager, Dr. W. G. Alexander of Orange, N. J., presented nineteen blue scouts bearing the "L" to the victors of the Howard-Lincoln Classic. Manager Sterrett, Ex-Captain Coston and Whirlwind Johnson, Captain of the grid whelps for 1923, made stirring speeches.
As a result of the occasion the spirit of the Quakers for the coming season is quickened. With but two of the 1922 Varsity, "Sty" Woods and Jacques, going out the squad of the coming Autumn will suffer but little change. The one of the new features of the 1923 schedule is that the game with the Hampton "Seasiders" will be staged in Baltimore.
BETHEL BAPTIST CHURCH HOLD
ING ITS SERVICES IN THE
Y. M. C. A. 9th & HEMLOCK
Our Easter Services were marked with Divine approval throughout the day. Many glad hearts welcomed the splendid lot of Children out to Sunday School and the Lesson was certainly enjoyed by all. Superintendent Mrs. C. R. Evans was in good form to expiate on the story of the Risen Christ, while Mrs. Gallerson, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Hudson, Mrs. Johnson, and others were delighted at the success of their effort in preparing the little ones for the occasion. At the 2:00 o'clock service Dr. Prowd preached from the Text-Col'33. 1. "If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above."
Truly it was a blessed time of waiting on The Master. All were refreshed. At 4:00 p. m. the Children had their exercises, and each did praise-worthily. The Room was full of visitors who expressed themselves amply repaid for coming out to the service. At night Mrs. S. Bass kindly took the place of President J. E. Prowd who was accidently absent, assisted by Prof. Greer, Mrs. Bass conducted a very helpful B. Y. P. U. Easter program, and that to the satisfaction of all present. The closing service was conducted by the pastor spoken on the behalf of Peter This Sunday will be a special one with us it being Communion Sunday, we therefore expect all the members out, and we cordially invite our friends. Come praying for a blessing.
H. D. PROWD, Pastor.
Third Street and Traction Avenue.
Rev. Archie J. Williams, A. B., M. S.
Acting Pastor.
We had a great time at Mt. Zion
Sunday all day.
The Sunday School was well
attended and the Easter program
rendered by members of the School was
excellent.
The pastor spoke at the morning
service from the subject: "Walking
With Jesus," at the evening service:
"God's highest gift to man is the
power of an endless life."
The choir rendered sweet music at
the morning service, singing special
Easter Music. A beautiful number,
"Let Him In" was sung by a quartette
composed of Mr. and Mrs. Geo.
Arnold, Mrs. Estell Taylor and Rev.
Archie Williams. The pastor was
the sobist at the evening services,
singing: Rodney's "Calvary."
The pastor speaks at both services
next Sunday morning subject: "Failing
to recognize the day of Our visitation."
Evening: "Seeking God's Kingdom."
The quartett will sing at the morning service: "The World knew not Jesus."
I came to a close Easter Sunday. Five young converts were added to the fold and several Baptists renewed their church membership. Indeed it was a glorious meeting. Easter Sunday morning the Pastor filled the pulpit and preached a soul stirring sermon on the "Resurrection." Matt. 28-6. The beautiful anthems and impressive spirituals rendered by the choir under the direction of Mme. Outley added much to the services. Sunday evening Rev. Wade preached the baptismal sermon to the converts. Little Mary and Marion Jackson were baptised. Other converts will be baptised Sunday morning April 8th, 1923. The Pastor will fill the pulpit Sunday, April 8th.
Rev. W. E. Shaw, Pastor—Rev.1217 Paloma Street.
"But now is Christ risen from the dead and become the first fruits of them that slept." 1 Cor. 15:20 verse was the text used by the pastor in bringing to our hearts a glorious Easter message. An appreciative audience joined in this wonderful Easter celebration. The holy communion was partaken of by a very large number. Tehisingby the choir was excellent.
An Easter program by the Sunday School at 7:00 p. m. and another by the choir at 8:00 p. m. were enjoyable features.
One cannot afford to miss the type of Communion Rev Shaw brings to us week after week. His work in Los Angeles and community is truly lifting. He will occupy his pulpit at both services on next Sunday, April 5th.
This church aside from being a home church is a great community church with a profitable program. We invite you to visit it and make it your home.

SCOTT CHAPEL M. E. CHURCH—Pasadena, Calif.
For four consecutive years, Easter has been celebrated at Scott Chapel M. E. Church, Rev B. J. Jordan, Pastor. This Easter, "The Holy Pageant," by Mrs. Myrtle Mills was supposed to be the most inspiring ever witnessed.
The beautiful message of the resurrection was portrayed in pantomime, music, lighting effects, costumes of the period in all characters.
The angels, the settings of the shepherds. Herod, Judas, Pilate, Mary, Elizabeth, the wise men and the resurrection.
All of those who were present could not help but believe in reality of the living Savior.
To Mrs. Mills must be given the honor of this wonderful creation. Each year her creative ability has known no bounds. She has been ably assisted by Mr. Samuel Danley Jr. who is considered an electrical wizard in his manipulation of electricity to create light.

The two week's revival meeting which was carried on by our Missionary Rev. R. H. Wade, at our church, came to a close Easter Sunday. Five young converts were added to the fold, and several Baptists renewed their church memberships. Indeed it was a glorious meeting. Easter Sunday was a great day for the pit and the preached, a soul-stirring sermon on the "Resurrection." Matthew 28:6. The beautiful anthems and the impressive Spirituals rendered by the choir under the direction of Mme. Outley added much to the services, Sunday evening Rev. Wade preached the baptismal sermon to the converts. Little Mary and Morain Jackson were baptised. Other converts will be baptised Sunday morning, April 8th.

WESLEY CHAPEL—
Rev. A. P. Shaw, Pastor.
Fresh with the breeze of early morn the robed choir halled the resurrection with song amazing in its intonation and serious with the nobility of sacred music.
The rendition of "Victory! O'er Death and the Grave" scored a triumph for the chair and its director, Prof. W. V. Howard. The Choir, most ably assisted by its organist, Mrs. Markham, sang into the heart, their tones filmed out with rare meaning and utter simplicity. Their voices were as vibrant as an organ, as agile and eloquent; the script was beautiful and the heroic of hearts into the quiet spirit of the church service, telling how profound a part music should be made to bear in the message and influence of relics.
"The Dearness of Words"
er" was the subject that inspired the pastor to preserve a most eloquent and impassionate sermon. There was a proper setting for a splendid sermon, a crowded congregation, sweet appealing music by Messrs Gladden, Rollins and the Choir.
At the evening services the children held sway and with youthful glee sent forth their speech and song to the delight and ecstacy of parents and admirers.
Much credit is due to the pastor and church for the services of Sunday. They were all that could be asked by the most critical observer. Throughout the day the dining room of the church was popularized especially in the morning when the choir after a feast of song treated the congregation to a most appetizing breakfast.
BETHEL CHURCH OF CHRIST.....
Hooper and Adams Street.....
Elder Wm. A. Washington, Pastor
The pastor occupied the pulpit both morning and evening.
The subject of the morning sermon was found in St. Luke 24:5. "Why seek ye the living among the dead." He espoused the promise of the Messiah through the prophets, beginning in Genesis and ending up to John the Baptist.
Without a word of Revelation I should still be convinced that Jesus Christ arose from the dead.
All of us need to be resurrected from our dead selves to come from out of the tomb of passion and pride. The world has always needed a resurrection morn and never more so than today. He is risen.
The subject for the evening sermon Job. 9:32-33. The importance of accepting Christ as our Daysman.
This was a very touching message backed up with power and our souls feasted on the word. The appeal touched many young men who are in need of this Daysman. Two additions were added to the church.
Mid-Week Services.
Tuesday evening prayer meeting and Bible Class.
Wednesday afternoon 2:30 Sisters Missionary Meeting.

Our Easter Services were the best that have been held in the history of the church. Sunday school services were held at 6:00 a. m. after which the Superintendent distributed Easter eggs to the children. At eleven o'clock the Easter sermon was preached, the text being taken from Mark 16 chapter and 7 verse. A good number of members were present to take communion. At five o'clock, the young people rendered the beautiful Easter cantata, "The Easter (Witness) which was directed by Miss Jennie Lockett. They were assisted by William Prince Jr., of Pasadena and Mrs. Servan of Monrovia. Mr. Joseph Bronson delivered a very able address on, "The Significance of Easter." The whole affair was a great success and much praise is due Miss Jennie Lockett, Mrs. Shaw, Mrs. Bronson, Mrs. McClay, Mrs. Beckham and others. Mrs. J. C. Redd, our choir directress, was highly complimented for the splendid arrangement of the music for the morning service.

THE FEDERAL RESERVE OF MONEY
The Family Room
ROSITA
By: WENDELL P. GLADDEN, Jr.
PART III.
Life at the La Casa Nueva began anew, Rosita sang, and danced, but there was a marked change in her attitude, her personality. And when she smiled it was not for the idlers who sat gazing at her with wistful eyes. She thought only of King Harmon.
The girl had decided to dedicate her life to another calling. She too had been influenced by King's, clean living, and manliness. Her better nature asserted itself. Rosita could live no longer in Mexicali. She must go.
Several days later when King was preparing for his departure with Jene to the States he received a note from Rosita asking him to pay her a last visit. He informed Jene of his intention to visit the girl and promised to call for him at a certain hour.
King made his way to the girl's house. He was about to knock at the door when he eard her sobbing with in. What! Rosita crying? Was it because he was going away? The young man was seized with a mad desire to go boldly into the room, if necessary to her rescue. Yet, he did not wish to be an intruder. Receiving no reply, he entered, for the door was not locked. Rosita was seated near the window. It was an evening in late summer. She neither saw nor heard King as he approached.
"Oh, God, make me worthy to undertake greater tasks, a larger work. Dear, Lord, thou knowest my heart I have been true and upright. But the man I love has found me in that cursed La Casa Nueva! What will he think? Wii! he believe me? Forgive me, Lord. Make me worthy of him." She had been weeping, pouring out the yearnings of her heart, laying bare her soul before the Great Comforter. She gazed out of the window at the decayed adobe houses, bits of shrubbery, and the glowing west which were symbols of the dying day.
King touched her caressingly; smoothing her fluffy black hair very gently. "Rosita," he said, "Cheer up. We are all sinners. God will forgive. You have—." Here he spoke haltingly, his strong body shaking slightly. "You have inspired me, you have saved my life, and won my heart."
Aroused now from her pensive mood, she rose and faced the man she loved, hardly able to conceal her joy. King looked at her admiringly. Her silken hair was dressed neatly, her brows black and long, her lashes lovely, behind which gleamed pools filled with burning love; there was a flush in her soft brown cheeks not unlike that of deep red roses.
"King, I am going home too. Mother is in San Diego. That is where I live. I must tell her of my desire to be of some useful service. She shall be assured that she will be taken care of. And you must come too."
"Yes, I promise."
"King, Sherry has been released. He says that he wants me. And when I told him I did not love him, he struck me." She burst into tears.
"Never fear, Rosita, you shall be safe always." King said only this as he looked into her eyes, and kissed her trembling roseate lips.
Then the unexpected thing happened. A great thump on the door was heard. Presently, without warning, the door was fung open and there stood a huge form. It was "Doc" Sherry.
Harmon started, the girl still in his arms. He frowned, muttered something; then steadied himself, Rosita was put aside.
Sherry came forward, closing the door. His was an ugly, murderous look. He stared into the eyes of King who met his gaze unflinchingly.
"Stop!" demanded Harmon.
"What!!" Sherry shouted. "I come and find you here. You made me lose two thousand dollars. Scoundrel, rascal, suffer! Not satisfied, eh? You want to take Rosita away now. Never! for I am going to kill you!
He dre wforth his automatic and levelled it at King. Springing and bounding with cat-like agility, Harmon was upon his adversary. The bullet shattered glass and mirror and a tussle ensued. Rosita fainted, falling backward against a chair to the floor. Furniture and furnishings were overturned and broken. The men swore. But their muffled voices could be heard only by themselves, so intent were they on fighting to the bitter end. Clothing was soon reduced to rags. They were bleeding, bruised cruelly, but fighting still. Over and over again they rolled, grappling like savages.
"Brute! you shall not have her," cried King.
"I will!" Sherry was determined. King, being the lighter of the two was thrown about more easily but never failed to come back strong with bulldog determination. They fought on, Sherry saw the gun and reached for it, but was unsuccessful.
Rosita regained consciousness finally, and, beholding the terrible scene before her, closed her eyes. She looked again. The girl aroused herself. Again the men rolled over to where she lay. Sherry opposite her. She saw the shining weapon, Sherry reached for it, but Rosita brushed it aside, although she was in a weakened condition. Kid Jose, defeated champion, and friend of Sherry, obeying orders given early in the day came to the gambler's rescue.
"Caramba! "he cried, talking. " git you now. You git me in fight. I git you now."
If You Fail To Read--THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE--YOU May Never Know It Happened
King, however, in a last effort, freed himself and met the Mexican squarely with a blow just over the heart. Jose collapsed.
But Sherry grabbed the automatic and fired at King, missing him, but wounding Jene who had come, hearing the reports and noise, and was about to enter the room. He fell across the threshold, revolver in hand.
King acted quickly. He seized the gun and succeeded in holding Sherry at bay and later turning him over to authorities.
"Too bad, Jene," King said as he knelt over this manager's body. "You will be all right soon. The doctor says the wound is not serious."
Jene smiled hopefully. "Boy, you are a wonder," praised Jene. "When we go back home you can beat the champion of the world."
"No," quietly, from King. "I am through with the game. There is a greater call, a greater urge, a larger service awaiting me, Jene. I must quit.
"Yes, you are right, King. And wha. about Rosita?"
"Oh, that has been settled. She is going home to San Diego and her mother."
PART V.
Jene nodded to Rosita, who smiled, as she sat at the plano, playing an old song. She sang too, and King became very sad. He thought of his mother. How he in the old days had knelt beside her while she told him of Uncle Remus and of the Arabian Nights, carressing him all the while. Then there were the later days when life had been unkind to him. How he longed to hear her sweet voice again, to tell her magic, consoling touch.
"Rosita," announced Jene." I have relatives in Boston. They would be glad to have you. Would you like to study music at the Conservatory?—I believe it is the New England. I will help you if you like." The girl jumped from the piano to the elder man's side. She looked at him with grateful eyes. He smiled.
King was in deep thought. He responded, however, when Rosita called him.
"It is agreed that I study in the New England Conservatory of Music. Mother will receive proper care. I will also receive aid."
Harmon was pleased immensely. And long after the shadows had ushered in the night they sat, these inseparable three, discussing their unique plans.
In a cozy rose-arbor overlooking the calm Pacific near Santa Monica, Cal. ifernia two lovers made their vow. Spring had come again! All the world seemed happy. What a glorious chapter in the story of their young lives! None disturbed them there save a merry busy bee making his daily round to the perfumed flowers, while the soft zephyrs murmered only a message of love. And none, heard, save God, the greater call to service
IN THE MUSIC WORLD
By John A. Gray
Of what value is Art to the world?
This question was asked at recent gathering, but a change in the conversation prevented a discussion upon it. The thought that came to us was—What part does the Negro play in the world of Art?
The American Negro has only the songs of his people that he can justly claim as his contribution to the world from a primitive standpoint. It is strange that our ancestors and even the present-day African had and still has numerous forms of artistic endeavors, while we seem to have lost our talent for all but song. In this line we have a rich heritage.
Did it ever occur to you that most primitive people have some form of artistic expression that is essentially racial? The Indian has head-work, pottery, basket-weaving, rug-weaving, etc., into which native designs are woven or painted. These designs are expressive of the Indian life. The African has pottery, basket-weaving, wood-carving, etc., that contain designs that are distinctively African. The reader will understand that we are referring to Art in the sense of its being expressive of a racial group and not to the efforts of an individual.
In later years we find individuals who have distinguished themselves in sculpture, painting, literature, etc., but whose work, however, is not expressive of the race. In fact the race at large knows nothing of their work. aside from Dunbar, whose rich contribution as a poet, give that aesthetic finish to our crude dialect and enables others to catch a glimpse of the inner soul of the Negro, there is no other figure in the world of literature who is known to the race at large and who has produced something entirely racial. Of course Dunbar has written other things that do not refer to the race at all.
We have yet to produce a painter who has caught the true spirit of the race, and who can reproduce on canvas a faithful portrayal of the soul of the Negro, through using his figure and scenes from his life as a medium of expression.
History shows that our first great ambassadors for the cause of the race, were the groups of singers who traveled over the country and finally went to Europe, who gave the world the first glimpse of the soul of the Negro. It was through song that we have gotten our greatest material consideration from the other people. Even today our jazz players have aroused the whole world with the primitive richness of our music. Since music has been our greatest asset we should feel it our duty to
cultivate and develop its possibilities. The world is waiting for new developments in music and foreign musicians say that our songs and their rhythms are the most vital elements that have been given to music in the last century. They are very enthusiastic about them and are using them in their compositions.
We are striving for recognition, equal rights and opportunity. We must fight continually the bitter propaganda that is being directed against us every day. By utilizing the possibilities of our music we can sing and play our way into the hearts of the other man.
Art in its broadest sense is cultural and denotes refinement. Through the forms of Art mentioned above we have a chance to offset the false impressions that our enemies try to create.
By developing our own Art we will be compelled to appreciate the other fellow's Art and that means artistic growth. The value of Art to the world is that refinement; culture and spiritual development that results from a comprehensive contact with it. Art and literature does to the world what the fire does to the gold from the mine. We can not afford to let its possibilities pass us unnoticed.

Campaign Committee and has already made many plans, to be announced later, to bring about the realization of the goal set.
In 1821, the women of the community in the first drive for our Y. W. C. A. succeeded in raising eight thousand dollars, of which fifteen hundred was used in furnishings, and sixty-five hundred was placed as first payment on the buildings which were to cost eighteen thousand dollars. In 1922, three thousand dollars additional was paid, reducing the debt to eight thousand five hundred dollars. The women are extremely anxious to get the total debt cleared away as soon as possible in order to secure a much needed swimming pool and gymnasium for the young women of our city.

THE MEMORS OF AN EX-SHIEK
By One of the Old Masters.
Free once more from his devoted attendants, and his favorite, the exshiek seeks solitude and peace of mind in his, blue room, overlooking his beautiful rose-arbor and the sweet-scented bowers of his colorful court. He was aware that increased activity was registered among the back-biters, chewers, nibblers, and fellowshieks. And all of the Associated Shieks report favorably concern the tasks assigned nad the many duties imposed upon them.
The ex-shiek speaks: My tents in the Southland are golden colored. They are located in a snug valley where the sun sheds his parching rays down mercilessly. My journeyneys are not long. The scene of my present maneuvers si close at hand. I grow tired of lounging, smoking, and chatting with my comely maidens. So I must make ready for the morrow when I shall retreat to the aged mountains and hills with the favorite of my harem. We shall not be content with hunting, and fishing; we will wander where the valleys miniature, are uninhabited, and streamlets sparkling, continuously flow. Ah, the flowers, wild, beautiful flowers! She will gather them and, nestling close and safely in the arms of her shiek, we will glory in them. I shall not tolerate other shiek trespassing

Some men make their money in business—some in stocks—some by toilsome savings of their daily wage. But I submit to you the unquestioned fact that more men have reached a comfortable competence through the ownership of property—houses and land which bring in a fixed income—than in any other way.
Business requires your sole attention—Stocks mean sleepless nights and days of worry—Property works by itself for you without your care.
Select it—Set it to work—it takes care of itself and will take care of you.
A good example of this sort of investment is found in a few of my special listings as follows:
Seven room house, East 40th St., $4200.00; $1000.00 cash.
Five room house, corner Hooper Ave., $3950.00 $1000.00 cash.

Slipping into another den, he climed quickley to the rescue of his favorite, seizing his huge knift, he rendered the intruder helpless. The ex-shiek ordered his male attendants to rid his premises of the rival and victim. Meantime, the girl has come to his strong arms. The ex-shiek is perturbed, but carries his little burden of love down where the crescent moon peeps into his costly cozy chamber.

EASTSIDE REALTY MAKES
FORWARD STEP.
The Eastside Realty Com-
pany, in opening the Central
Avenue Tract, directly on the
and Central avenues, without
any question took a stride for-
ward that should be highly ap-
preciated by this community.
The Eastside is establishing
a new precedent for home-
puilding for our group, and the
opening of this new Shorbe
Avenue Tract, directy on the
thoroughfare that leads to the
great Los Angeles harbor and
the Southern beaches, is not
only the best business oppor-
tunity for investment and for
home-getting. but one of the
most desirable health-locations
that has ever been offered to
the people of color of this sec-
tion, ard the management of
“Eastside Realty Company is to
be highly commended for _ its
:success in securing such a de-
‘sirable, as well as healthful lo-
seation for the housing of the
;Colored people, since this is an
asset to better citizenship that
thas been consciously. or uncon-
tsciously, as the case may be,
overlooked by us.
“HE WHO LAUGHS LAST,
LAUGHS BEST.”
» We have always advocated
‘All Men Up, and No Man
‘Down. With this as our slo-
gan, we have no desire at this
to laugh at any difficulty that
may come to any of our con-
temporaries. Hence, we are
sorry to note the fact that our
widely advertised New Age
Dispatch had to put in its ap-
pearance last week half-dress-
ed. We hope that our friend-
ly and highly commendable
contemporary, which a few
months ago was prophesied by
our very dear old friend, the
Topeka Plain Dealer, to be-
come the greatest newspaper
of the West, will be able to
again get itself properly gown-
ed before its next appearance.
We are always glad when an
opportunity presents itself for
better education along Sjourn-
alistic lines for our people,
for after thirteen years, we re-
alize that as yet they have no
idea of the difficulties nicum-
bent upon the owner and op-
erator of a Colored newspaper.
Truly it requires brains to
run a newspaper, but those
brains, if you please, must be
trained to the extent that they
can properly direct financial
affairs. Note, if you please, we
are using “brains” and “mind”
synonymously. Nevertheless,
the idea we would convey is
this: that sentiment goes a
long way in the establishment.
as well as the popularity~-of a
newspaper, but the final analy-
sis shows that ultimate success
can only be built upon a_ sub-
stantial financial basis.
Those who would operate
newspapers must learn that in
order to succeed in this partic-
alar line, it is not necessary for
them to tear down something
that is already established in
order to get material with
- which to build their own news-
paper structure.
In one essential particularly

the news in the quickest way to
all parts of its territory.

Mr. Farmer is a native of California. He was born in San Luis Obispo County. He has been a resident of Los Angeles, since 1893. He has served two years in the State Legislature, four years as City Councilman, two years President of the Council. In 1810 he was director of the National Census Southern California.
His Platform
He stands for economy, co-operation between departments, adequate fire and police protection and improvements and betterments of the harbor district. He favors a new City charter adapted to the needs of this community. He is a member of many of the prominent Clubs and fraternal organizations.
Mr. Farmer says: "The vital governmental need of Los Angeles is that its several departments work on a harmonious business-like basis. The present condition wherein the city council and Mayor's office are working at odds is deplorable. Those who suffer most by this condition are the citizens of Los Angeles. Our citizens are entitled to have a Mayor and a Council which will work in harmony. That I expect to bring about. I base this statement upon the fact that practically all of the candidates for the Council and other offices are my friends. The present incumbent admits he is a mere figurehead and that in harmony exists because he does not have the necessary power under the present charter. His campaign creed is that a new charter will give him that power. The facts are that a new charter, if adopted, will not become operative until 1925. The governmental affairs of this city must be administered in the interim under the present charter. I propose, if elected Mayor, to inaugurate at once a program of harmony throughout all departments of this city government and thereby put City affairs on an efficient and economical basis. It is quite evident that the city government of Los Angeles is not keeping pace with the City's commercial growth and civic development. The progressive spirit of our citizenry, which has made Los Angeles the Metropolis of the West, should be the spirit which permeates every departmental activity of the city's government.
If elected Mayor I shall put into effect a program whereby this spirit will be reflected in the constructive accomplishments of this City administration.

HYGIENE OF VOICE ESSENTIAL
AFFAIR
M. B.
By Dr. E. B. Lewis, B. Sc., M. D.
1618 2 East 9th Street.
The hygiene of the voice is a more essential affair than is commonly thought. Who will deny that an agreeable style of speech is most effective sort of introduction to others, while an unpleasant voice grates harshly on the ear and very often repels the listener? A nasal twang and a guttural voice are handicaps to be overcome.
一
People who rasp out their words with sounds like pine wood leaving a saw; who slur their speech and chop off words acquire a faulty combination of the complex muscular movements involved in the powers of speech. The voice is by no means the simple thing it seems to be. There are first a group of sensations which receive impulses to speak. These must pass through sensory nerves to a part of the switchboard called the brain, to be guided and grouped properly into the muscles and nerves of the vocal cards, tongue, lips, palate and windpipe.
The voice is thus a combined and co-ordinated outfit of sensations, muscles, instincts and habits. If your voice is harsh, coarse, rasping and unrefined, you may blame the voice you heard in infancy. Speech is largely acquired by imitation of the sounds heard in childhood's happy hours.
To train a child to speak with a refined and delicate voice, the parents, nurse or guardian must be very careful of their own speech. They should see to it that the child hears only fully and carefully pronounced words, nicely polished sentences, with no "ain'ts," "don't," "has saw," "he sees," and "can't be dids," which all the school teaching in the world cannot unde.
Mechanical Defects Hare.
There are a few mechanical accidents, such as large tonsils, adenoids and trouble inside the noise which make voices raucous. There are too many persons with slovenly, stumbling, harsh, unpleasant voices. They do not believe it. Indeed, they are insulted when so informed, yet a European throat specialist has advocated a law that individuals with such speech should be forbidden to marry and have families, or, it already married, should be deprived of their children until a year or two of vocal training has been carried out.
Vocal Training Valuable.
An excellent method of acquiring a melodious, sweet and refined voice is to take singing lessons, not en masse as has been unsuccessfully tried, but personally from a singing teacher. Through no use is to be made for solo and chorus work, such discipline of the voice will help to produce a melodious voice.
People who try to sing may have a poor singing voice and are secretly laughed at, yet they may give great pleasure when they speak. Poor singing is an abomination, but such persons often have melody in their plain speech to compensate for their lack of it in song.
Children particularly should be taught vocal gymnastics. A good music teacher is needed to train a child's voice by teaching it how to breathe properly, how to expand the lungs, how to control the larynx, tongue, palate, lips and also how to improve the general health.
Unless a child's voice is taken in hand early, its vocal efforts will be of the common garden variety with its twang, chopstick words and staccato rhetoric. Far be it from me to advocate a stilted, artificial, broad-A type of fopflishness, but pity the man or woman who, unconscious of his or her defect, talks like a poll-parrot or a Dick-Dead-Eye. Sympathy however, without well directed and graduated exercises for the voice is like sop to Cerberus.
Dr. Lewis will answer questions for readers of this paper on medical, hygienic and sanitation subjects that are of general interest to the public. He cannot always undertake to prescribe or offer advice for individual cases. Where the subject is not of general interest, letters will be answered personally if a stamped and addressed envelope is enclosed.
Address all inquiries to Dr. E. B. Lewis, 1618 1-2 E9th Street. Phones 920389 and 822417.

The Westside Improvement Association will meet hereafter on the Monday of every month instead of the first Monday night. The meeting on Monday night, April 9th, will be attended by some of the candidates for the City Council.

Womens' Thoughts For Women. In the matter of friendship I have observed that disappointment arises chiefly, not from liking our friends too well, but rather from an overestimate of their liking for and opinion of us, and that if we guard ourselves with sufficient scruppulousness of care from error in that direction, and can be content and even happy to give more affection than we receive, we may manage to go through life with consistency and constancy, unbittered by that misanthropy which springs from revulsions of feeling

Miss Elizabeth Davis
The Second Baptist Church of Fresno has been wonderfully blessed in the past thirty days when the Rev. J. P. Hubbard, pastor of the Beth Eden Church of Oakland held revival services with the Rev. T. M. Davis, pastor of the Second Baptist Church of Fresno. The Rev. Hubbard carried on very successful metings where the holy spirit was ever present, manifesting it in soul stirring sermons, singing, prayers, testimonies and confessions. After a week of these meetings Rev. Hubbard returned home. The city had been so stirred up and revived by these efforts put forth that a telegram was sent to the Beth Eden Church on Sunday, March 18, requesting their pastor for another week. The Oakland church kindly consented. The good pastor toured back in company with his little daughter, Mary Elizabeth who was the guest of little Justitia Davis.
As a result of these meetings there were twenty five persons to join the church and twelve candidates for baptism. The remainder were restored to the church. Rev. Hubbard is dearly loved by the Franconians and is welcome to return at any time. Buster was a very full day for the Second Baptist Church with the sunrise prayer-meeting at 4:00 a.m. Sunday School Service at 4:40 a.m.

Besides these services was the large Baptismal scene, the Sunday School Easter Exercises where the Easter eggs were given out to the Sunday School scholars and a short sermonette was preached by the Rev. Moore after which was a short testimony service followed by the Lord's Supper.

The Stranger regrets very much to learn of the death of C. M. White. Supreme Commander of the American Wooden. of Denver, Colorado, having wroked for him in the days gone by. Two other deaths the Stranger notes with sorrow—Rev. H. H. Williamson (the Jay Hawker) at Riverside, California and Rev. N. C. Buren of St. Joseph, Mo., we pause and drop a tear.
The membership of Shiloh Baptist Church gave an informal reception for their retiring pastor, Rev. John E. Allen. Monday night. Many impromptu talks were given by the different departments of the Church as well as by the local pastors of the other churches. Rev. Allan goes to Denver to take the pastorate of Central Baptist Church after three years of hard work here.
Mrs. T. B. Butler is again, copiously lent her several weeks' illness, also Mrs. K. C. Brown.
The Easter Service in all our churches was good and the one we saw at St. Andrews was especially good. The Sunday School under di-
rection of Mrs. Louie Robinson Greene assisted by Miss Anita Page was great. The decorations were beautiful and in an abundance. The other service was good and very impressive. There were four baptisms, five read into full membership and eight fellowshipped, the music was good and everybody enjoyed the service. The Allen C. E. League are looking forward to a big meet Sunday when the state president Payne Middleton makes his official visit here. He is well known here having been in the previous legislature.
Out of town visitors this week are R. E. Town, Oakland; H. W. Williams, Oxnard; J. A. Keith and wife; E. M. Gaither and wife, Mrs. Earl Mrs. E. D. Mansheld, Misses Eliseo Watkins and Florence Machen, Laporte Alexander and Milton Miller, Woodland also Mrs. J. T. Muse of Berkeley.
Wow! Whooper! Play ball. Say that old grand stand, bleacher and those field seats groaned under the weight of about 12,000 people who witnessed the opening game of the Pacific Coast League Tuesday at Moreing Field. The band played the crowd was merry and Gov. Friend W. Richardson threw out the first ball to Mayor Elkins who tossed it over the plate to W. H. McCarthy, president of the Pacific Coast League and the old ball game was on. It was real, it was earnest and Bill Hughes beat "Suds" Sutherlin on the slab and Sacramento. "the heart of California" won 33 to 1 in the opening game. Portland has a real ball team and looks like they will be in the running when the season gets under way good.
"Struttin' Along" with Mamie Smith and her jazzy hounds open a three days engagement here Thursday at the Clunie and the old town is wild with delight in anticipation of the joy they are going to have when that curtain is rung up. One more big joy this week when that old song sounds gown at the L street arena sending young Dudley of Oakland to the center of the ring in the main event with Gene Cline of Stockton. Dudley is considered one of the best welter-weights on the

AT THE LEGISLATURE
AT THE LEGISLATURE
The Assembly Judiciary Committee passed to the floor of the house with a favorable recommendation a bill by Assemblyman Emme of Los Angeles County, making it a misdemeanor for landlords to refuse to rent houses or apartments to families on account of children.
Another bill by Assemblyman Emme recommended for passage is one providing that the cases of women in police court may be held behind closed boors in instances where the defendant might be placed in an embarrassing position. Let's keep our eye on that one.
Action on the reapportionment bill will be delayed on account of the illness of its author, Assemblyman Edwin Baker of Los Angeles.
A bill changing the status of the Whittier State School was passed by the Assembly today after a long debate. The bill transfers the school from the department of institutions to the department of public instruction.
The Stranger says: That it now very much like that preacher down at St. Andrews Church is going to get an autoono—I mean a Ford.
That first can not come any too soon for him because he wants to see the Queen of May.
That he don't want to hear Mamie Smith because she might sing the "Blues" and he's already got 'em.
Hear me when I say the light is on at the St. JOHN MISSIONARY BAPTIST CHURCH. The fearless divine. Pastor Knox, will proclaim the word of God at a great Revival, nine nights beginning April 4th, lasting until the 15th. Hear him speak with authority from 7:30 to 9:30 each night. Bible Lesson on the plan of salvation, and soul-saving, each day at high noon, together with prayer service. 1514 Palomares Avenue, near 25th and Compton Avenue.
