Human history and experience have taught us that many persons believe that a head of naturally long and beautiful hair, a healthy scalp and a lovely smooth complexion come from luck, but they do not. Constant care and the frequent use of preparations of proven merit are the secrets. REV. JONES LEAVES FOR LITTLE ROCK CONVENTION On Monday of this week, Rev. Chas. P.

BUSINESSMEN ORGANIZE (Continued from Page One) THE NEW YORK TIMES DR. FRANK A. PEARL mous practice since his establishment in this city. He owns a beautiful home in Hollywood, where he reides with his wife and two beautiful children. His oces are at 1139 East 12th street, and comprise one of the most elaborately equipped establishments of its kind in the city. The doctor enjoys a handsome income from various financial projects in which he has invested extensively. He is an enthusiastic horseman and motorist, owning a Marmon Sedan for his family, and a Dodge Coupe for his personal use. Dr. Frank A. Pearl, while not an "old timer" here, is fast striding to the front, being endowed with the sterling personal qualifications, as well as ability in his chosen profession, which make for brilliant success in any line of endeavor. Dr. Pearl is DR. EUGENE C. NELSON as unassuming and modest as he is clever, and "every day, in every way" is becoming the man of the hour in medical circles. Mr. R. C. Owens, Los Angeles' wealthiest colored citizen, is a typical Californian, and well known to all classes of people in our city—for despite his riches and social position, no man is more democratic than "R. C." who hobnobbs with bootblacks as readily as with millionaires; he is easy of approach, and a prince of good follows, and does not feel that he is one whit better than the man who does manual labor for his living. The above is a likeness of M. G. Stokes, who is one of the most prominent figures in the business life of Los Angeles. While unassuming in his manner, Mr. Stokes has nevertheless been identified with some of the biggest financial projects that have been promoted by members o the race in this section, and he enjoys the felicity of Los Angeles' very best citizenry as clients in the real estate world. Mr. Stokes is a property owner and his identification with and interest in the California Development Company, is in itself the greatest possible guarantee to the public of its present soundness and future promise. There is no doubt that, under the executive leadership of Mr. Stokes, with the cooperation of the brilliant minds associated with him, the California Development Company will at once take its place as the most efficient and successful undertakings of its kind West of the Rockies. The Company has already purchased a $12,000 property, with an income of over $2,000 per year, an dn a short time will not only be in a position to bring about radical betterment of local conditions but provide for the locating of the thousands of students who throng into oLa Angeles each week.

Groom installed the new officers who worn as follows: Snow, Mrs. Walter J. Gordon; First On Friday evening, August 3rd Motorcycle Officer No. 4, whose name is said to be "Burnett" simply because a peaceful driver complained to him that his light blinded him so that he could not see, threatened to beat up and lock up Mr. J. N. Sellers and party who were en route to their home from Los Angeles to Sawteille. Mr. Sellers was abused, told that his color was not supposed to talk to this particular officer, and then jumped on the running board of Seller's machine and made dire threats as to what he would do. Sellers beat his head and reported the incident to Sheriff Trager and naturally wants a ruling as to the reprehensible conduct of Motorcycle Officer No. 4.

IN THE MUSIC WORLD With the coming of the new season there will be a greater activity in music than ever before. The nation is gradually awakening to the value of music as an aid in producing better citizenship. The people are learning to love music for its own sake and are giving it better support. A large part of the work rests naturally upon the teachers and performers. but to appreciate also the spirit and intellectual side. Their task is the producing of future music, the developing of musical appreciation in the community around the Nation and greatest of all the teacher must be a living example of the best, the best and sincere in the art. A teacher who has no ideals cannot imply in the pupil. Who knows that the little boy or girl of to may become the greatest music and master of the race tomorrow. History shows that very few of teachers of the old master The teachers must have high ideals and try to install these principles into their pupils. They must forever hold up the standard of all that is good and best in the art. They must train the young mind, not only to grasp the intricacies of m. art.

Who knows but that the little boy or girl of today may become the greatest musician and master of the race tomorrow? History shows that very few of the teachers of the old master were known outside of their little community.

Send the entire civilized world. rlous them is the task of the teacher. No less important, however, is the work of the performer. His task is to deliver a message to his hearers. The kind of message rests with him entirely. If the performer renders only the light trivial part of music then his message is a light, trivial one. But if he combines the trifles with some of the noble utterances of the masters he will be helping to spread the gospel of better music and will be assisting in the development of the same. One of the great drawbacks that confront the teacher is the fact that the pupil hears some famous performer give a program composed for the most part of trifles. At once the argument is "The great so and so plays this, why should not I?" Against this sort of argument the poor teacher has little chance. A performer can in one concert tear down all that the teacher has, tried to do for several years. Team work between the teacher and performer is a necessary thing. Both should be idealists whose love for true art should be above everything else. Such a condition must exist before we can hope for a musical nation. We trust that the coming season will give tangible evidence of this phase of idealism. ARE YOU A MASON? -Then Get The Official- COLORED MASON Grand Lodge Edition.

FRED A. HOUSTON 1443 Pacific Avenue San Francisco, California Mr. Lloyd George declares his conviction that only religion can be a saving factor in the affairs of man. Of course! But it must be an entirely new religion. The kind of religion that has been grasping the battle-ax of Mars to enforce obedience to its edicts is the kind of religion that precipitates hell on earth, turns the hearts of men against the church and makes its offices and pretensions alike odious. There is scarcely a spot on the earth's surface that is not pregnant with force, whether it be the force of some so-called moral reform set afoot and backed by the most despicable of all movements, a church militant; or whether it be the force of an allied coterie of statesmen seeking to impose their will on weaker people, or yet the force of bomb and bullet, always it is the same, offered under the sanctum of religion. The most amazing phenomenon in the affairs of man today is this use of force and duress in the practice of a religion whose great preceptor never ceased to counsel against such a thing. If one would know why a religion has so little appeal, why, the church is decadent, (as the church itself admits), one need seek no further than the facts we present. The religion capable of healing a torn and troubled world, bringing surcise to the hearts of man and transforming the human nature into a thing of vast beauty, is a religion which offers sanctuary to those who have grappled with the world and failed to find happiness. A religion which has formed a co-partnership with the world and materialistic affairs, walks hand in hand with politicians and shares its holy office with the ungodly in reforming mankind by political means, never fails to become both oppressor and repressor and odious in the hearts and minds of men. The true religion never takes but one side of a controversy, God's side. And it has to offer to mankind nothing at all but the redeeming love and power of the Almighty. It never judges, lest it be judged. It is never controversial. Such a religion alone has the power to reform the hearts of men and thus become a saving factor in the affairs of men. A political religion can never accomplish it. t your Ads, Cuts Number of the your matter to Remodeling 25% REDUCTION CAPES—THIS SEASON TO SEE THESE WO —YOUR CREDIT 25% REDUCTION MODEL SUITS, PA SEASON'S STYLES STOCK ARRIVING Have It Charm RELIGION That is Why a Complete Funeral for $75.

On last Tuesday when Judge Russ Avery in the Superior Court said defendant is "dismissed" it was the sweetest music which had ever taken upon the ears of Lieut. Journee White, who for the past 30 days been waging a fight provoking the incurrence of the charge of murder, his parole, for which he being have to be sent to San Quentin, which would not do better than anguished. Mr. White, while he is represented, some papers have been maher of property. It after that deal was a fraudulent one, that deal was made. White was cled up and his parole declared broken. He was ordered sent to the penitentiary to serve from one to ten years. White protested his innocence and through his attorney Paill C. Hill procured a stay for ninety days. He wanted to find one E. C. Ross for whom he executed the papers. Soaring Eagle Assists He called upon the Editor of this paper to assist him in hunting E. C. Ross. We were at San Diego and commissioned Attorney W. H. Crawford, of that city, to go over into Tia Juana, Mexico, and look up this said E. C. Ross, also the records as to property held by him. This act put White's attorney on the track of Ross who proved he E. C. Roberts and Roberts was arrested. He exonerated White of all blame and is himself in durance vile for fraudulently conveying lands which he did not possess. Thus ends one of those hair-raising episodes which tangled up justice had a narrow escape from becoming injustice. LINING UP FOR NAT'L. BAPT. CONV. (By J. B. Bass) Everything is moving up at this stage of the proceedings for the entertainment of the National Baptist Convention which meets in this city Sept. 5th to 10th inclusive. The site chosen is at 21st and Compton Ave. and a mammoth cent with chairs for 5000 people will be pitched at this location, every sanitary arrangement is being cared for and every comfort possible for the convenience of those who will attend the meetings of the big convention. Delegates On The Way From all sections of the country word comes that the people are on the way; on last Tuesday 30 automobiles all loaded to the fullest capacity left Dallas Texas en route to this city, also a special train will leave Fort Worth Texas on Sept. 1st, likewise from New Orleans and other southern points. In fact from all sections of the country reports are, that caravans are moving on to Los Angeles. High Churchmen on the Scene Prof. Austin of St. Louis, Mo, who is the conductor of music for all of the big Baptist meets is on the ground looking after the musical end rapidly shaping up the great chorus for this great occasion. Dr. Stokes of Birmingham Ala. Treasurer of the big organization is also in evidence and helping to finish up all details for the success of the big meeting. Prof. Hines, National Exhibitor is on the scene and directing affairs. Rev. R. N. Holt, Chairman of the General Committee is working overtime in his zeal to make the Convention a success. Rev. L. B. Brown is an outstanding figure, in the effort incident to holding this convention in this city. Over many obstacles and fighting down petty jealousies he made the last stand for the Convention to come this way. He would not stand back when fees of the movement underhanded sought to thwart the will of the people and in St. Louis stood, up and in a glorious speech won the Convention for Los Angeles. Therefore Dr. Brown's reinforcement of Dr. Holt accomplishes dmore than any other two persons for the success of the effort. We are aware of the fact that there are those who will withhold due credit and as we are in a position to know we hesitate not to give Row, L. B Brown due credit for his great service, others may push him back but in this instance the Soaring Eagle will tell it unselfishly that the people will know who's who CLINTON T.

STATE FED. (Continued from Page One) "We will all agree," said Mrs. Winters, in part, "the more can be accomplished by co-operative effort than when individuals or groups are puning in opposite directions; it may be that their aim is the same, but the efforts put forth are not concentrated, hence are not productive of the best results. "The aim and purpose of the California State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs is to better humanity—humanity as a whole and our group in particular. We desire to feel that we have made the world better for having lived in it; for having organized our forces in the most effective manner. "In the wide field of co-operation, there are several avenues of useful endeavor upon which I would ask you to concentrate." Mrs. Winters then pointed out the need of concentration along the lines of Education—not merely book learning, but in honesty, devotion to duty, the spirit of Christianity. Another point indicated was Thrift, in the form of saving and the acquisition of property. "The world," continued Mrs. Winters, "caters to success; it worships accomplishment; it extols, achievement; and I feel that our Clubs should add to their noteworthy achievements year by year; so that no woman who realizes the seriousness of the status of our group, can afford to withhold her co-operation and support from any movement which the Federation sponsors. "I retire from the presidency with a year full of love, kindness and gratitude for all of you who have shown me such respect, consideration and loyalty, but I would feel that I had not performed my full duty" unless I bespoke for my successor, whom you will elect, the same loyal support and consideration you have so generously shown to me. "Because I relinquish the presidency to the one who you will designate as your choice, my interest in and devotion to this organization is not to be one bit diminished. I transfer the wheel that controls the rudder to this fine old ship of ours to the keeping of one, who like myself, may commit mistakes, but they will be of the head, and not of the heart, and I can see our little ship gliding along, now over a calm and unruffled stream, now over a rough and tempestuous sea; aye, there are even times when a cruel wave of gigantic strength and power strikes us amidship and causes her to tremble from stem to stern, but she is guided by a faithful and competent captain, with a pilot and mates and entire crew in complete co-operation, and there bring her into a glorious harbor of safety two years hence, triumphant and victorious." The election was held Thursday, which resulted as follows: which resulted as follows.

Among the most important resolutions passed was the adoption of the Australian ballot and that the California Federation should become a member of the Northwestern Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, and the adopting of the recommendation as offered by the president that a State Club House be built as soon as consistent with judgment, which Club House will consist of modern auditorium, offices for business, store rooms and living apartments as will not only be a monument to the memory of the club women but will also serve as an incentive and center for business and special activities. It will be a step forward in the economic world. The session closed Friday evening with the state program and installation at Lincoln school, to meet next year in the North, exact plac to be announced later. BISHOP PARKS Bishop H. B.

Not the "Wilds" of Asia or Africa, but New and Under a Republican Form of Administration Read for Yourself and Then Hold Your Peace, for Justice Will Be Done Three men are convicted, two white and one black. One white man was convicted on July 13, 1923, in Brooklyn, New York, for fraud to the extent of $610,000. He was found guilty on thirty-four counts, each count carrying a penalty of five years each and a fine of $5,000, making an aggregate sentence of 170 years and $170,000 in fines. After the jury returned the verdict of "guilty," this man was given bail in the amount of $15,000 to appear for sentence. When he was sentenced a few days after, he was given two years and fined $2,000 with bail on appeal. His crime was committing fraud on a bank in which thousands of people placed their savings. The other white man, a minister of the Gospel, was convicted in Denver, Colorado, on July 25, 1923, on two counts, for forging permits to supply liquor to rich residents of his city. The penalty for the crime on each count is five years imprisonment, and a fine of not more than $10,000.00. On the 26th of July he was sentenced to two years in Federal Prison for each count, to run concurrently, without any fine. He was released on bail bond of $5,000 pending appeal. This was an unnecessary and unusual crime as committed by the individual. The black man, Marcus Garvey, was framed-up and tried in an atmosphere of prejudice. In New York, for the alleged use of the mails to defraud in the sale of stock to help his race start a steamship line for their industrial and commercial improvement. All the money collected was spent for the promotion of the company that bought three ships. The case lasted twenty-seven days. It could not be shown where Garvey got one penny of the money for stock for his personal use, but on the contrary he was the largest stockholder and greater loser in the unfortunate failure of the concern, caused through the wiles of his enemies. He was indicted on seven counts. He was found guilty of one count on the 18th of June, in an atmosphere of prejudice. The maximum penalty on the one count was a fine of $1,000 or five years, or both. After conviction before sentence, he applied for bail pending sentence. His application was denied. When brought for sentence, three days after, he was given the maximum of five years and a fine of $1,000. Application for bail pending appeal was denied. He is still in jail. Three other applications for bail were made and all denied. We have three cases, one a bank commercial fraud for personal gain; one an unnecessary and unusual violation of law; the other the effort to help a race by an experiment, in fact, that teaches self-help and self-reliance. The first two are given the fullest opportunity to prove their innocence; the latter, "unfortunately" a black man, in a white country is deprived of every opportunity of proving his innocence and especially that he tried his own case as counsel. THE STORY gruder in $15,000 bail for sentence. Former Representative Warren I. Lee, counsel for Magruder, informed the court that he would appeal. (On the 19th instant, McGruder was sentenced to two years and fined $2, 000, with bail on appeal.) DENVER, Col., July 25—The Rev. Walter A. Grace, pastor of a Catholic church at Arvada, a suburb, tried in United States District Court on charges of forging a permit for an application to ship liquor into Colorado, was found guilty today. The jury deliberated only ten minutes. "The judgments of God are not those of men," was Father Grace's only statement when the verdict was announced. The defense filed motions for new trial and arrest of judgment. The court is to rule on these Saturday. The penalty for forcing liquor permit is one to five years imprisonment and not more than $10,000 fine. Get Liquor for inmates of Home for Aged Men The Rev. Walter A. Grace was accused of obtaining fifteen barrels of old bottled in bond Early Times whisky, ostensibly for the Mullen Home for the Aged, but actually for his friends. Father Grace was pastor of one of Denver's show places, the Shrine of St. Anne, and he was deeply involved to a number of prominent citizens for aid in building it. Prohibition agents alleged he forged the name of the Mother Superior of the Mullen Home to a permit for withdrawal of whisky and later altered the permit so that instead of calling for one barrel it called for fifteen. It was charged also that the priest obtained the money of Blanche and died from one of his publications. Mrs. Blanche O'Meara, daughter of the millionaire, was found the house was named. It was asserted Father Grace got the money by telling Mrs. O'Connor how much occasional toddlers would be relished by the old men at the home. But very little, if any, of the liquor got to the home, it is said. Mrs. O'Connor also is accused of spiracy to violate the Volstead act, but is to have a separate trial. DENVER, July 26.—Father Walter A. Grace, Arvada priest, was sentenced to two years in Federal prison on each of two counts for forgery of application for liquor permits this afternoon. The sentences are to run concurrently. He was granted a thirty-day stay of execution pending appeal to the United States Circuit Court of Appeals and honeo was fixed at $5,000. The priest spent last night in jail. STILL ANOTHER CASE But still there is another case recently disposed of that makes interesting reading. Dr. Edward A Rumely, S. Walter Kaufman and Norman R Lindholm, all white men, were convicted and sentenced in December 1930, to one year and a day at Atlantas Federal prison for conspiracy to defraud the United States Government. They were immediately granted bail on appeal in the amount of $10,000 each. Their appeal was heard and decided on July 27, 1923. Their conviction was uphold but they will appeal to the Federal States Supreme Court. Thus again the fastest opportunity has been granted to the convicted persons to prove their innocence.

It boots no difference whether the circumscribing bounds be racial, political, religious or social. Self-government is better than good government. For self-government will ultimately lead to good government; but without self-government good government will not long endure while human nature retains its selfish character. It is one of Abraham Lincoln's truisms that no man is good enough for another man without his consent. We impose upon ourselves a protective tariff whereby we purposely agree to pay a higher rate for home products than for which we might secure the same foreign made goods. This is in order to build up and maintain home industries. The principle is sound. There is hardly a position in official ranks today that could not be better filled by appetitive than by elective choice. But self-government requires the democratic mode which as often as not results in an unworthy or inflexible selection. The professors in a college on the average maintain a much higher level than the membership of state legislatures. The Relation of Superior and In- Some races and nations are more experienced and adept in the art of government than others. America is a hundred years ahead of the Philippines in the science of self-control. But government is like the specific for smallpox. Its curative qualities become wholly inefficacious unless the patient responds to the treatment. Unless the vaccine takes the patient experiences no cure. The advanced peoples of the world can best serve their backward brethren by wise encouragement, advice and counsel, and not by forceful interference and direction. The Japanese have fully demonstrated the wisdom of this policy. As soon as they comprehend the elements of Europe's ways of doing things, they dismissed every European from immediate administration and control of their political, economic and educational system, and supplied their places with less seasoned and experienced sons of their own breed. They kept their eyes opened and maintained the closest helpful relation to the best men and movements in the western world. The result speaks for itself. Had they remained under European tutlage till their tutors judged that they were able to walk alone, they would still be leaning on the precarious support of the white man's crutch. Any people can govern themselves better than anybody else is likely to govern them. This is true of Mexico, Hayti and Liberia. In a moment of philosophical calm, President Wilson said that the nations of Europe shed each others blood to their own delight while fighting their way to enlightened self-government, and asserted that Mexico should enjoy the same bloody privilege. England has been governing the Negroes of Jamaica for an hundred years, and yet they are not half as far along as the blacks of Hayti, who have struggled unassisted, under the heavy load of self-sovereignty. The meanest thing that America ever did was to snout out the light of independence that the wavering hand of this black sister republic has held flickering amidst the encircling gloom for a hundred years. Surely the chivalrous American nation will stand as the big brother, and not the big bully of the weaker peoples of the world. The way to learn to swim is to swim. The way for a people to learn to govern is to govern. It merely weakens the spirit and enervates the powers to be shunted aside to watch others perform a task declared impossible for you. If the American Negro has ears to hear, let him hear. Mr. Garvey's Predicament I noticed in the last issue of the Negro World that Mr. Marcus Garvey declares that Kelly Miller takes delight in his imprisonment. The Potentate of Africa was neyer more mistaken in his life, although his best friends will-admit that he has made some great mistakes. I never glory in any man's misfortune. If Mr. Garvey has justly incurred the penalty of the law, I regret it. It does the Negro race no good to gloat over the misfortune of anyone of its members, however mistaken or misguided he may be. Mr. Garvey was charged with a technical transgression of which the court of competent jurisdiction has declared him guilty. His case has not yet reached the stage of judicial finality. For some legal reason, inexplicable to my lay mind, he is denied the privilege of bail pending appeal. If Mr. Garvey is being tried and punished for his propaganda instead of his transgression, his case becomes, not a matter of joy, but a matter of protest on part of every right-minded Negro. The Negro is the habitual victim of ultra judicial psychology. Any Negro is but dancing on his own coffin who takes delight in an unjudicial penalty inflicted upon any member of the race. This is wholly independent of the attitude of the worth or unportiness of Mr. Garvey and his movement. 517 The Education of the Negro in the North In October, 1921, I contributed an article to the Educational Review in which I touched upon the mooted question of mixed and separate schools. The mere mention of the issue evoked widespread comment and criticism. Of course my motive was impugned. This is an understood requital of everyone who essays to handle public questions. I notice that the editor of the Crisis has attracted critical fire in his direction. The basic difficulty consists in the vain attempt in trying to apply the canons of logic to a situation of inherent illogicality, when the race demands a Negro staff for the federal hospital at Taukeges, it accepts segregation, or afflicted fields for the availability. "This is wrong," I lechic would moderate if I were to like Taukeges dominantly denominatory but against segregation. The latter senger is the only publication that has come to my notion that was the courage of consistency, which I think, is at the expense of practical wisdom. Consistency is a jewel which the practical statesman relegates to the nimble moralizer. It is a condition and not a theory that confronts us. Let me lay down a platform upon which every Negro can stand, some in the middle and some it may be around the edge—"Wherever and whenever the Negro is relegated by public sentiment to separate areas the opportunities of the circumscribed zone should be commanded by Negro talent and ambition. The ship designed to carry only Negro passengers, should be commanded by a Negro captain and crew of capable seamanship." A State College for Maryland The Afro-American reasonably and justly demands an adequate state college for the Negroes of that state. West Virginia, within the past three years has appropriated one million dollars for a State College for the one hundred thousand Negroes in the mountain state. Maryland has two hundred and thirty thousand Negroes. Every man and woman of them has the free and unquestioned right of franchise. Unless they focus their suffrage upon such a simple, obvious and undisputed racial right and advantage, of what use is the franchise? Put this proposition squarely before the Negro voters of Maryland, Mr. Murphy. Member of the Terminal Family ROTH'S MEN'S FURNISHINGS Headquarters G. & M.

EDITORIALS THE DUAL PATHS OF DESTINY. In the golden period of childhood, when we stood on the threshold of life, with all of its new and coming wonders, we were nearer to God then than ever after; with our minds pure and sweet, and respective to the spiritual love of Christ and His teachings. When the lessons taught by a gentle mother's love; or sown on virgin soil and never after entirely forgotten. When all life is beautiful, and the cynicism of after-life has not entered our soul, then we see the marvelous beauty of nature, of the seasons. Winter with its heavy frost, and mantle of snowy whiteness, and spring and summer with its marvelous sunsets, tinged with coloring of blended crimson nand gold of heavens, the stars and the evening rose filled with dew, whose fragrance breathed to our heart a message of God's love. Our sould drank deeply of God's love and beauty then, and was unsullied by the pall of black wretchedness around and about us, from which our eyes were turned, for evil had not as yet knocked at the door of our heart; we had the peace that cometh with a pure and clean heart. God was indeed near us then. Thus God paved the way of life to youth's estate. His summertime of life, with its wonderful dreams and visions, great and strong, where old age is forgotten and care a thing of the past. But confronting Him stands the dual paths of destiny—one straight and steep, but ever going upward, leading to eternal life; the other ever downward, spilling the lost and broken soul. Then comes manhood. The hour of consummation, with its rude awakenings of the stern lessons of life, of dreams built on quicksands of time, the tonsils of hope, the mockery of despair, our omissions and commissions, the final realization of the immutable truth from which no man can swerve, "as ye sow so shall ye reap." We stand aghast with aching hearts and wonder if God should turn away from us who would guide us in making our next step. Then old age, the graveyard of our hopes and ambition, comes with quickening sickness, and as we turn back in retrospective memory the leaves of life, hideous and ghastly forms confront us on the pathway downward taken. Along this path, young men and women, millions are missing out in the race. They have been running some ten, some twenty, some thirty, some forty, fifty and even one hundred years and today they are standing still afraid the next step will close their uneventful life unprepared to meet their God in peace. Therefore it is with the man with high attainments that will-fold up his arms in peace at the close of life and lie down to pleasant dreams. Dr. Gordon is without any question one of the greatest Gospel preachers California has ever had. Last Sunday Monrovia took one step forward in the mighty march of progress when its citizens, under the able leadership of Fastors Reed and Davis organized to compete with others in the economic world. President Harding was making a triumphant march across the country when the grim reaper lifted its sheeth and divided him from all that was earthly. He had passed the Golden Gate at San Francisco. Southern California had opened wide her arms to receive him, when the hand of aiction touched him—and the world cried out: "He is ill." But the optomist answered back: "He will soon be better." Did they know? A nation is just great as its music. Heven pity America if her standards of art and morals are to be judged by the weird syncopations of the "Coontown Blues," the sample of present popular taste. Jazz music in its various forms, covers up a multitude of sins, and is the greatest advertisement for haunts of vice and crime. Of course for a few brief moments we stop, bow our heads in humble respect for him who has reigned over our nation for three years past; but in the main, France will still seek reparation in Europe and greedy whites will be none the less zealous in making up the personnel at Tuskegee; in other words, "The world goes on just the same." This is wonderful lesson to youth, especially to those of us free from the inclines of information and learning. We feel elated and inflated at any event we are apt to feel our importance and position, but when we casually discover the fact that the highest of our hight, the best that our country can, offer politically and socially, has been vacated and the hands of time move sturdily on as the sun passes, through its routine, we are apt to conclude, if vanity will permit us, that in our obscure corner and nook we may not still Father Time in our tablet of every heart, emblazoned with deeds of valor and of courage he may write "Calvin Coolidge the Sayer." He can save Tuskegee, he can save us from inter-meddling, he can save the Republican party's faith with the Negro, As we write of Mr. Coolidge, we write of every life. In the narrow vale which leads between the barren peaks of two eternities, we will all have moments to arise to our heights, exert our personalities, originality and sagacity. It will be our supreme moment, absence from earth after all. COMMENTS By: W. J. WHEATON The Federations, which comprise the clubs of Negro women active in the work of racial progress, are invaluable. The activities of those clubs cover the entire range of beneficence—Art; music; the religious life of the race with its ideals of morality as well as the industrial and economic phases which present themselves. These are all approached with that diplomatic and yet forceful manner which has caused them to become potent factors in the struggle for racial equity. They have been represented in the international conferences which have called together the brains of womanhood throughout the world. In these conferences they have dispatched the erroneous idea that they were lacking in any of the essentials which have marked the path of feminine advancement. They have, by their intelligent presentation of the prescriptions practiced against their race caused a sympathetic feeling among the nations abroad, and have caused the eyes of the world to focus on the barbarous attitude of the United States toward its Negro citizenship. At home, it has been the women's clubs who have insisted that the youth of the race be protected from evil environments, and that safeguards be thrown about homes. They have lessened the rate of mortality by seeing that sanitary conditions are improved, and in all things kept faith with their motto: "Deeds not Words." Are we gaining a more intelligent ministry, or does the same ancient idea—being called to presach—still determine the calibre of our pulpteers? This query was brought to our minds overhearing an argument betwix two exponents of the scriptural texts who, seemingly, had had a controversy, as to the reading of a passage in the Bible. The argument was based on the name of the dog which licked the sores of Lazarus. Without doubt, one of them had insisted that the dog was named, because after a bit of heated argument he pulled a Bible from his pocket and turned to a marked page. He read:: "And moreover the dog licked the sores of Lazarus." Then turning with an air of triumph he said: "You can't dispute the scripture, there it is, plain as the nose on your face; that dog's name was More Over." Bulls are frequently made in the pulpit. Very often the preacher in the pulpit. Very away by the fervor of his oratory and is liable to make an error. Here is one which was made recently by a minister who is fairly well-informed on Biblical matters, but it is doubtful to his historical information. He was illustrating the fall of Jericho, and he said: "Seven times the bugles of Joshua marched around the walls of the city and blew a blast; Seven times the soldiers of Joshua, with their muskets on their shoulders marched around." And then every person wondered why those young people in the audience anckered out loud. We had sympathy with the youngsters, because we remember that when we went to see the Fall of The Alame, some years ago, we were arrested for disturbing the peace when we laughed because Davy Crockett and his men were fighting with automatic rifles. It happened that the Judge had a sense of humor. It might pay for our preachers to pay a bit more to historical details. With the continued indusx of our people from the South the housing conditions, especially in the large The Supreme Moment We are cautioned that opportunity appears in every man's life consciously or unconsciously. His success depend upon the result of his maneuvering; his ability to see, foresee and to snatch, sometimes, from utter failure victory and the crown. This is the supreme moment What an example of uncertainties, of spontaneous aggrandizement is the ascension to the Presidency of Mr. Coolidge. Years of training and preparation at Harvard, his activities in politics and as Governor of the great State of Massachusetts will now be exposed in the fact that Mr. Coolidge will display the qualities of a "wonder man" as did Ted Roosevelt, or he will fall into oblivion and disgust, leaning for the support of past reputation that was unearned. Such a supreme moment to untangle the mass of disputes, to dry the tear stained eyes of widows and to heal the wounds of nations is his. On the tablet of every heart, emblazoned with deeds of valor and of courage he may write "Calvin Coolidge the Savior." He can save Tuskegee, he can save us from inter-meddling, he can save the Republican party's faith with the Negro. As we write of Mr. Coolidge, we write of every life. In the narrow vale which leads between the barren peaks of two eternities, we will all have moments to arise to our heights, exert our personalities, originality and sagacity. It will be our supreme moment, abide by free will after all. is given the right, although the lives of children and the health of a community is endangered. When vice becomes rampant, when murder and robbery stalk their victims In the dark streets, the city forgets that it has caused those conditions by the intelligence of its officials and sends the police in the stead of the Welfare worker. The city which segregates and does not provide for the amusements and sanitary welfare of that community, is guilty of breeding crime. Thrice more guilty than the criminal bred by its neglect. There was quite a gathering of political race leaders in Atlantic City, N. J., they came from the states which are doubtful—using the political term—and plans were formulated to educate the race vote to wield the ballot so intelligently that it would be an asset to race progress. There are some explanations to be made by aspirants for oce which, to be effectual, will tax their diplomatic powers. As for instance: Senator Edge addressed the convention and was listened to with courteous attention while he defended the Harding administration, but when Page, who holds the position of Magistrate and is one of the political powers of the State of New Jersey, asked why the Senator absented himself ffrom the second roll call on the vote for the Dyer bill, he (the Senator) beat an unceremonious retreat. It's hard to tell what is under the cranium of the Negro voter, he is non-committal, and his ways are past finding out. We over-heard a conversation on a street car which opened up a new avenue of thought; Two young men—one white, the other black in color—were commenting on the noticeable addition of the colored population. But this is the part of the conversation which attracted my attention, the black man said: "Well, it's your own faults you allowed the germ of color prejudice to slak so deep under your skins that it, inoculated you with color hatred which led to a savagery unprecedented in the annals of civilization. You have denied us the rights of citizenship; you have proscribed against us industrially—we have to accept subordinate positions no matter how qualified—we are charged abnormal rent, and even if we can buy are denied residence in desirable districts. In the South, white taxed full capacity for schools, we are curtailed. In all avenues of life you have set us apart, and now we are going ourselves. We are going to show you that we can do it, and we are going to show the world that you have been lying about us. Politics! Why it is not cutting any swath. That is from a partisan viewpoint. We are voting for measures; not men." "Fine fellow that," said the young white man to his companion as the colored man left the car. So say we. 0——00——0 Warren G. Harding, the 39th President of the United States, after a brief illness died in the city of San Francisco, August 2nd, 1923. San Francisco was arrayed in gala attire and every preparation had been completed to pay loyal tribute to the head of the nation, but that grim reaper, who has no respect for King, Potentates, Presidents, or agit, the high now the decreed it otherwise, and instead of cheering throughs, there stood bowed heads, an awed silence which spake more elegant than cities, are route. There is a tendency to migrate. Often it is done by the people themselves, who, not realising the change of environment, band themselves for mutual protection. Then grain subtle influences are brought to bear by city institutions, such as Improvement Clubs and the like, to force residence in certain sections. Whenever such hooditions exist the portion of the city occupied by the rage soon becomes the neglected part. The sewers are allowed to clog; the streets remain unswept; the garbage is allowed to accumulate, and property deteriorate. If a factory is to be built it is given a site in the Negro district. If a railroad wants to run its tracks through the section it HEALTH NOTES By: DR. E. B. LEWIS, B. Sc., M. D. Brown eyes have something so soft and alluring about them that even the most unemotional individuals succumb to them. Ftw persons can resist the endearing young charms of the dark eye. You read behind it such a clinging temperament that in your boundless yearning for someone to protect and to love, you feel certain you have found it. Dark orbs usually mean deep, firm, unmovable devotion and reliance. They indicate a sweetness and seductiveness which blue eyes and gray eyes often lack. Jut as in tropical countries dark pigments and variegated colors pre.all as evidence of the warmth, as well as nature's attempt to protect the sensitive living structures from the sharp rays of hot sunlight, so the dark iris of the eye is perhaps the outgrowth of an effort to hold back the springs of feeling in their possessor. Blue eyes, on the other hand betoken usually the supremacy of the intellect and the subjugation of those glands which are intimately associated with profound emotions. The blue-eyed individual is seldom as sincere or as deep in her feelings as is the black or brown-eyed peron. Accompanied as blue eyes often are with effervescent, vivacious, superficial and transient states of exuberance, it is commonly to be noted that their owner are fickle and not tenacious in their likes and dislikes. Lack of Pigment Gray eyes, on the contrary, partake of neither the characteristics of blue eyes nor the depths of feeling which go with brown eyes. Those who have gray eyes are at times as teely and cold a the color indicates. Emotions are seldom present; hilarity and frequent change of fleeting vivaciousness are equally rare. It may be said with assurance that gray eye nearly always point to deliberation and cold calculation, with little, if any, such springs of action as impulsiveness or hyteria. If all thee fact are correct, why is it that mankind is not, like rabbits and flies and some other creatures, occasionally endowed with red or pink eyes? As a matte rof truth, there are a few exceptional people so born. They are albinos, or persons words of the respect of loyalty which American sold for those who represent its government. The stability of our governmental foundation has been exemplified in every instance where the executive head has been suddenly rembod. "God reigns and the government at Washington still lives." Those memorable words spoken by James A. Garfield, when Lincoln was struck down by an assult's hand saw as applicable today as they were then. And the we lent the passing of Warren G. Harding, who was the personification of patience and who believed that the best way to accomplishment was to avoid friction: the nation feels confident that God reigns and that the nation under Him will march on to progress. deprived by heredity of the dark particles called pigment. Just as a white flower is wholly waning in the color pigment, green, blue, purple, yellow and so on, so a human albino has no black or blue pigment. When all the pigment of a human creature is wanting, the red blood corpuscles, which roll hither and thither in thick buncles through the veins, capillaries and arteries of the eye and elsewhere, show through the transparent, colorless flesh and the eyes are seen as red. This is equivalent almost to blindness. Red Eyes Defenseless Obviously, man cannot have red eyes because albinoa and others with these red eyes are defenseless in sharp light. They have no pigmental curtain over the pupil as a pin-point to guard the eyes when bright illumina-tants strike them. In other words, the iris which dilates and contracts what we call the "pupil" I am upde of dark or blue pigment in order to safeguard the delicate internal structures of the eyeball and thus protect vision. Another equally essential explanation fits in with these facts. You cannot have red-colored eyes and see, because it is necessary that red, one of the chief colors in visible light, must reach the retina—the living lining inside the eyeball, which is linked with the optic nerve—in order to tell the rest of you the exact truth o the outside realities. If this red is injected and reflected back before it arrives in the retina—exactly what happens when anything is red—it means that one of the principal factors of information to your mind has been turned away at the door. Therefore, no human being can acquire real knowledge and at the same time have red eyes.

Rockefeller is going it strong to set up an Adam and Eve twenty-five feet high in Carran marble. It is a disputed question whether Henry Ford or John D. Rockefeller is the richest man in the world. But when it comes to who is the poorest man in the world there are a good many rival candidates. If scopolamin will make a man tell the truth, fellows ought to be doped with it immediately on returning from a fishing trip.

Alston, Mgr. 500 Central Ave. Phone: 824618 At a call meeting by the above named church on Monday evening, August 6th, it was unanimously voted by the Council, after weighing the facts presented, to, "recognize" the said church as "A regularly organized Missionary Baptist Church, and the original Tabernacle Baptist Church." There were fifteen churches of the city and vicinity represented, with twenty-one persons answering to the rell call; besides these were the Rev. R. H. Wade, Missionary for the Western Baptist Association, Rev. Banks, and the Rev. Mr. W. R. Carter, Superintendent of Negro Work in Southern California. Rev. L. B. Brown, pastor of the church, stated in a few, brief words, the very stormy and tempestuous times through which he and his faithful flock have passed, and told the brahmen present that the object of the calling of the Council was for them, after carefully looking into and weighing the situation, to sustain the church in its action, (or otherwise) and "recognize" them as the original and only Tabernacle Baptist Church. There were many questions asked, and the matter discussed minutely. After debating the question for nearly one hour or more the Council arrived at the conclusion that the present Pastor, Deacons, Trustees and Members, now at 27th and Paloma Ave., were the "Original, Spiritual Tabernacle Baptist Church," and unanimously voted them the same. The public is cordially invited to worship at, Mt. Rib Baptist Church, 3rd street and Traction Ave., on Sunday morning, August 12th, 11 a.m. at which time the Rev. R. B. Porter D. pastor of Shiloh Baptist Church Little Rock, Arkansas, will preach. Dr. Porter is nationally known as a strong and inspired preacher, with a worthwhile message. He is one of the most eminent ministers before the public today. The great work accomplished by him during his twelve years' pastorate in Little Rock is a splendid testimonial to his ability to do mighty things in the service of the Lord. Don't fail to hear Rev. Cooper! Come early, and enjoy the entire service! Directions: Take "F" or "N" cars. Get on at 3rd and Traction. WOMAN FOUND BRUTALLY SLAIN MAN HELD AS MURDERER At an early hou ron Friday morning, August 3rd, two small boys found the body of a woman on 61st Place, between Central and South Park avenues, which was shortly afterwards identified a stat of Mrs. Dora Alexander of East 23rd street. Examination disclosed that the deceased had been struck with a machinist's hammer until the handle of the weapon broke, and then dealt a death blow with a pick axe handle, which fractured her skull. As the outcome of the incident, one McVay was held as her slaper. The accused denies all complicity in the crime, but the circumstantial evidence against him was so strong that he is held for preliminary hearing in the near future. The deceased was about forty-two years of age, and is survived by two daughters. PROMINENT PHYSICIAN VISITS CITY. Walter N. Thomas, A. M., Ph.D., M. D., one of Chicago's leading medicalians and surgeons, who is making a tour of America gathering information that will be of interest to his work when he returns to Chicago and resumes his practice. Dr. Thomas was the only Negro doctor employed by the city of Chicago to examine draft applicants. He is a member of the old Eighth Illinois Infantry and has the distinction of receiving the highest degree ever conferred on a Mason of color in America two years ago in Boston.

Dr. Thomas left Friday over the Santa Fe for the Grand Canyon and other places of interest before returning to Chicago. If they have found a radio station that will stop automobiles and planes, then of course the station is to find something to stop them. WEST SIDE HOLDS ELIMINATIONS SUNDAY, AUG. 26TH. COURTS NOT TO BE MOVED YET. *By: William Mells Watson 1555 Court St. Drexel 3742 Kiss yourselves comrades and doff hats to Hon. Lloyd Wilbour Davis, treasurer of the West Side Club and owner of our West 35th Place Court grounds, for that dear brother injected a barrel of happiness into our weakened systems at last Monday night's meeting when he announced that the club could go ahead and put the courts in shape again as he has changed his plans about building this year, which means that West Side now has time to buy and build courts of her own, and we certainly thank friend Lloyd Wilbour as well as his charming other half, Mrs. Bessie Davis, president of the West Side Ladies Tennis Club who no doubt is somewhat responsible for "Buddle's" change of heart.

The long mission style station blended perfectly with the deep red and white and black coloring of the shawls and blankets of the Indians wrapped about them. Along the way from Albuquerque, and in many parts of New Mexico were Indian villages. These villages represented different tribes. The houses, made of adobe were situated for the most part near yellow and brown lakes or streams around which were no signs of grass. On the opposite side of us we could see other villages near beautiful streams. But these streams with their shining restless waters were as myriad glittering diamonds surrounded by banks of green grass. Not far from this scene was another picturesque Indian village. It was large. Squaws passed with pottery upon their heads. These women walked gracefully. An Indian boy was herding cattle. There were two large dogs trotting last before him. A few older Indians were journeying to another town in wagons and on horseback. Beyond these we could see another village which covered more than five acres. There was a large adobe building standing alone. Its construction represented the last word in Indian architecture. This no doubt, was their temple or great meeting place. This setting would have done honor to and served as a masterpiece for the world's greatest artist. Beneath and against a clear blue sky with only a dash or two of white rose the rather level and flat hills. They possessed a very singular beauty. One would almost believe that they were made by the hand of man were it not for the more irregular purplish mountains whose builder is the Maker of all things. LITTLE ACTS OF KINDNESS SMOOTH PATH OF LIFE By: Wendell Gladden, Jr. When Pan's Young Nephew, known as Jazz, starts the ball a rollin' with his irresistible strains of music, you might as well wipe away your frown for it is-time to be gay. Jazz, himself is the very embodiment of syncopation and unexpected harmony. He goes wherever he chooses; and no one is ever sorry when he comes. Jazz lends his spirit to ragtime, makes all the jazz artista play and even the nimblest-footed darling stan tieler. The influence of his music is not limited to human beings. For even a man eating shark will wiggle his tail in 'wonderful' stoptime; the caged-bear will exhibit his dance; and the lion becomes less fierce when the peppy strains start floatin' 'round. And oftimes every hungry monkey stops nibbling its peanuts, jumps about and grins; and the laziest cow forgets to munch her grass and runs 'round like milady's precious little pup trying to catch his tail. If Jazz begins tickling your ears and does, don't try to be too dignified. It is useless. Just let yourself go. For, to hit the nail on the head, Jazz always makes his victims jolly, pleasant, and brightful of life and as supple as a rattlesnake. That is the real Jazz. By: MLLE. DOROTHY ARMSTRONG The off the shoulder neckline is popular. One black velvet hat of great interest is faced in black and white ostrich covered, covered in maline, there is a black and white ornament on the side. A distinctive skirt of covert has wide, plain, pomes in back and front. The skirt is brown, rogian silencers were festured. Gauntlets with contrasting stitching are worn with 'bic street costumes. Many skirts wrap around the figure with circular flounces. Glass bracelets worn "en masse" are different colors or all matching, just as Madame desires. The "robe de style" is more popular than the straight silhouette in Paris. Gloves that are very quaint come in a sort of blue-gray suede and have short scalloped cuffs, which make the general effect rather like a fringed gentian. At Conners one sees much tricot in one piece frocks under sport coats, tailored tweed or cheviot gowns with blouses of figured tricot, tricot skirts with graceful loosely bilted blouses, etc. Very stunning and striking indeed are some of the black moore vanity bags that Madam may carry from her wrist. Odd shapes they are with wrist bands that scintilate with jewels. Gingham this season is most smart when it is combined with another material, making the usual country or day frock 'attractive enough for afternoon wear. Henna color will sofeten any eye and add charm to every complexion, so the fascinating Erte designs a gown in henna crepe which hangs in soft folds and its right sleeve trail, itself itself around the waist in a girdle. To add more charm Madam gave a little henna color to the hair. Ah! To make herself that one fascinating creation Madam holds a large henna outfit fan. How chic! It is really what men do that show what they are, and not always what they say. The building of the Veterans' Hospital at Tuskegee, the great industrial school for Negroes, furnished occasion for the white people of that county and state in Alabama to show their real attitude toward the progress and rights of our people and brings to light what they really are, and discounts much they have said for years. And had this never happened, perhaps we never would have known just what Major Moton really is. Mr. Moton's sudden flight shows that he really had no faith in his own words in exhorting his people in addresses on his famous tour through some of the Southern states, assuring them that times were growing better and right here is the place—stay here! We must crankly confess that we have never looked on the Major as a real man since he publicly reprimanded his wife for riding in a Pullman car. The man who does not believe that his wife is deserving of the comforts of a Pullman when she pays for it, can never lead me nor instruct my children. We sympathize with Mr. Moton and hope that his future will be pleasant and prosperous, but when we look for real men, we can never see even the shadow of him. What a man really is will finally be disclosed. Great crisis will bring it out. There is a large class of "The Go-Between," that will soon be known as they are.—The Memphis Times. 0-60-0 Mike: "These new inventions are wonderful. Why, one can send messages without wires."

Terry Brown Scores knock-out- Madison Square Garden, on Wednesday night turned them away by the hundreds all eager to witness the bout between Sunny Jim and Bert Colima. The sturdy Mexican was at his very best and won a hair line decision over the heretofore unbeatable Sunny Jim. He won with long range rights to the jaw. Sunny almost succeeded in landing his terrific swing to the jaw which if it had landed it would have been curtains for Colima. Colima won with sharp jabs and hook to the body.

Black Mason of Chicago appeared for the first time in Los Angeles at the New Tabernacle Baptist Church at 27th and Paloma, which is being piloted by the Rev. L. B. Brown. Mme. Black Mason is a very charm- ing personality and her appearance in Los Angeles last Thursday was a classic treat in song. As a song artist Mme.

It is hoped that she will be heard again in Los Angeles. PROF. W. G. HYMES ARRIVES IN L. A. IN INTEREST OF NATIONAL BAPTIST CONVENTION Prof. W. G. Hynes his wife and son accompanied by Prof. Robt. A.

HOUSTON SHANNON On last Wednesday at his home in Oakland, California, Houston Shannon, after an intermittent illness of several months passed out, the cause of his death being heart failure. Mr. Shannon was well known in and around the Bay Cities as well as throughout the State. In the days past he was associated with such notable characters as Lew Purcell, Sam King, et al. In later years he aspired along ambitious lines and has rendered valuable service to this paper as well as to other enterprises. When we launched a greater California Eagle, he was for a while interest, ed, but later disposed of his interest to the present owner and later served as the Northern representative of this paper. In the Longshoreman's strike in San Francisco he rendered valiant service for the ship owners and in the street car strike several years ago had charge of the Cimmisary Department to the extent of furnishing the needed help for the dining department. In this he was successful and stood high with B. K. officials. By thrift, industry, energy, working in complete harmony with his very estimable helpmate, Mrs. Lizzie Shannon, they purchased a beautiful home in Oakland and only a few weeks ago, with pride, he showed this writer the canceled mortgage. been imposed upon and are the real sufferers in the premises. We want the law to take its course and put such parasites where they belong. Those wishing cuts notify the advertising dept. of the Eagle and we will have them made in time to appear in this number. The pictorial section of the Eagle will be the best effort put forth to show the visitors what the Los Angeles people are doing in real estate and pretty homes. If you have no picture of your home, call us and we will send our photographer out to make one for you. Get your order in early. Let's make this a real feature. One Eugene Lucas is now, languishing in jail at San Bernardino. He is just another case of misplaced confidence on the part of the management of this paper. Knowing that he had conducted a sheet at Bakersfield and applying to us for a honest chance to work in the realm of which he felt qualified, we gave him a chance and his first field of effort was San Bernardino. According to reports from the daily press and from our correspondent at that place, he was not satisfied with collections which he made there, but proceeded to pass worthless checks right and left. He landed in jail, and it is simply another case of misplaced confidence; we suffer and it makes it hard for the next one who passes along, regardless of how honest they might be.

MITCHELL "That's all for the present, Mr. Williams," said Lester Logan, quietly. The witness started to rise with pleased alacrity. Then Lester, who had been standing near the witness stand, wheeled on him dramatically. "Oh, just one more question, if you please, Mr. Williams." with excitement as she eagerly pumped the recent counsel for the defense. "I investigations I made in conection with another case had already disclosed the fact that John Peters was in some way connected with the opium ring in Ardmore," explained Lester, quietly. "I'n fact, I was about "Sure," said the witness, smiling. Lester advanced until he stood within two feet of Walter Williams. "Have you ever seen me before today?" he asked abruptly. The witness was plainly taken a back by the unexpected question. He stared at his questioner uncertain, then finally answered, "No!!" "Don't you remember," continued Lester, evenly, without taking his eyes from those of Williams," "meeting me at the corner of North Boulevard and Nineteenth street on the afternoon of September 24th?" A startled look flashed across Williams' face. "And don't you remember," continued Lester, "that you saw me pick up something?" "Why, why.——yes," the witness gulped. "Do you remember you came up to me and said you had lost something?" "Why, yes," stammered Williams, "I— I might have." "Is this what you lost?" As Lester hurled this question at the witness in a clarion voice, he flashed from his pocket a little lacquered box and thrust it almost in Williams' face. At sight of the box, the body of the witness stiffened and his face underwent a startling and terrible transformation. "Yes!" he shrieked, as he lunged for the box. That's mine! Avid, frenzied desire for the object Lester quickly drew beyond his reach twisted Williams' features in hideous mouths. "Not now, not now!" Lester uttered in a low hiss, then raised his voice. "First, tell the court which of the two men seated there at that table do you swear you saw kill Joha Peters?" Again taken aback by the unexpected. Williams looked quickly and nervously at the two black men seated on either side of Lester's chair—one with his head bowed, the other busily writing. "Why—ah—that fellow," declared Williams, pointing a shaking finger at the man with head bowed. "Which one?" demanded Lester, sternly. "The man who is writing?" Instantly the look of co-mingled suspicion and defiance settled on the twitching face of the witness. "NO! You can't fool me!" he cried, shrilly, "It's the other fellow—the one you told to leave you alone!" "Are you positive?" thundered Lester. "Do you swear that is the man you saw kill John Peters?" "Yes, I swear it," the witness almost shouted in his defiance. "Donald Douglas, prisoner at the bar, arise," commanded Lester, quietly. Slowly the young man who had been writing rose to his feet. The Judge, recovering from his amazement at the swift turn of affairs, frowned sternly at the witness. "Mr. Williams, what do you mean, sir——" At the same time the youth whose head had been bowed stood up abruptly and gazed full into the eyes of the witness. Nichols, just recovering from the state o temporary mental paralysis into which astonishment, anger and consternation had thrown him, sprang to his feet. Before he could speak, Leaster addressed the court, his own voice trembling with emotion. "Your Honor, this witness has not identified the defendant as the murderer of John Peters! Furthermore he has perjured himself and deliberately accused an innocent man of this crime! I ask at this time a warrant be issued for the arrest of Walter Williams for _____ With a strident cry the witness lurched from the chair and sank on his knees. "I did it! I did it!" he screamed, face covered with perspiration, body twitching convulsively. "I killed Peters, because he double-crossed me in that opium deal! I confess—I confess! I'll get the others—I'll turn state's evidence." He collapsed at the feet of Lester Logan, moaning, as he clasped the young attorney's knees. "The box! For God's sake, give it to me!" As soon as the uproar had been quieted and Walter Williams had been carried from the room, the Judge turned to the jurors. "Gentlemen, you are automatically discharged from this jury, and--" turning to Donald Douglas, "Prisoner before the bar, please stand! The Court hereby discharges you from further custody, and pronounces you not guilty of the murder of John Peters." A few hours later, Lester Logan was seated in his private office. Opposite him sat Donald Douglas, Mary Louise perched on the arm of his chair, her arms about his neck, her chest nestling against his hair. On the edge of the desk, set Dulce Dulce, Stuart "Is this what you lost?" If You Fail To Read--THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE--You May Never Know It Happened By with excitement as she eagerly pumped the recent counsel for the defense. "Investigations I made in connection with another case had already disclosed the fact that John Peters was in some way connected with the opium ring in Ardmore," explained Lester quietly. "In fact, I was about to have him subpoenaed as a witness in that case when he was murdered. His last word—"box"—prompted me to make the search that resulted in my finding that little laquered tin—in which a chemist found traces of powdered opium. "Williams' queer behavior at the scene of the murder made me suspect that he knew something about it—even before I discovered him to be the chief witness for the prosecution. I knew, the moment I sized him up, that he was a drug addict. I had him watched and my investigator connected him with the local opium ring." "How was it he couldn't identify Mr. Douglas?" interrupted Helen. "Naturally, he didn't get a good look at Don the night of the killings. At the preliminary he was, well, half-shot and I noticed he hardly looked at any of us. Lately he's been under such strict surveillance by the Prosecutor's office that he hasn't dared try to get the drug. Today his dope-starved nerves were wrecked. I had had another lid made for the opium box. When I flashed it on Williams, he thought it contained his drug. The sight of it—the desire to seize onto it—unnerved him. He couldn't have identified his own mother at that moment "I planned that little coup this morning when I saw Williams' eyes shift uncertainly from Don to Tommy when Nichols asked him to identify Don. I dropped those books to divert Nichols' attention. I didn't want him to press the point. And our clever Prosecuator" he added, laughing boyishly, "was so sure he'd established his case that he neglected that little detail." "But how did you get him to confess. Lester?" "Sheer bluff. Helen. I suspected Williams from the first, and meant to burt him into a confession—if he was actually guilty. In fact. I never intended that this case should get as far as the jury. You may not have noticed that I paused a few seconds after I demanded that warrant for Williams' arrest. That was his cue—to confess to the murder." "And if he had failed to take it" "I could have asked his arrest— for perjury," replied Lester Logan quietly.

The affair was well attended by both members and other spectators. The first boxing bout was between "Jeff" Brown and "Sam" Butler, "Jeff" had the best of it during the entire bout, outclassing his rival, although the fracas was called a draw. The second bout of the evening was between "Bill Narcise and Woodson Wickliffe, at which time the former proceeded to wallop the latter from the beginning to the end of the meles. The next bout was between "Ben" Colly and "Lee Whitaker." The bout was Colly's from going to gong. In the exchange of matches, Colly gave Colly one. The second bout FEATURE SECTION and the elusiveness of Ben was indeed a feature. The last number on the program was a wrestling match between "Luke" Rosser and James Brown. "Luke" won the match, two falls out of three. The first he secured after five minutes of constant struggling, and the second fall in about the same time. HUNTING BIG GAME (Continued from Page One) pride, by which men are bound together with confidence in one another; the kind that enables and supports public spirited men and women to build hospitals, home for the aged, and keep abreast of the times by creating and establishing big business and commercial enterprises, has shown himself to a very small degree among our group here in our city. He's here alright, but in his present state of lethargy, of self-satisfaction and indifference, he has hood-winked us with the idea that the thousand and one industrial institutions so much needed can't be done because you and I can't put any confidence in each other. I must admit that such a condition does exist here. I have long since dealt with causes rather than effects. Most things presented to you have had no foundation on which to stand. A group of men got together on a scheme to increase their supply of pork chops. They worked in harmony for a few days only, then of course their proposition blew up, leaving the promoters with a black eye and you with a grouch that makes you suspicious of all other Negro movements. In view of the fact that a little non-sense now and then is relished by the best of men, I'll tell you a story just here. There appeared in a daily paper this Want Ad.: WANTED—Fifty strong, able-bodied Negroes, to appear at a certain corner at a certain time. Be on time and receive Five Dollars each. Upon their arrival at the place, the Negroes found a white man and a telegraph pole with a brand new rope attached. "Now," said the white man. "I want you fellows to take a good good on that rope and when I give the signal you pull like blazes." It is needless to say that the pole was pulled out of the ground. When it was all over one of the Negroes remarked. "Mr. white man, what prompted you to pay us five dollars a piece to pull that pole out of the ground?" "Well," said the white man. "I never heard of fifty Negroes pulling together on anything. I simply wanted to see if such a thing was possible." I am sure you get the same thing I do out of this story. Any and everything is easy of accomplishment if you know how to go about it. The idea of the pole and rope was original with the white man, but to prove the practibility or probability of its being successfully carried out, it was necessary to have the support and cooperation of the fifty Negroes. He accomplished his purpose because he had in his proposition the three elements which inspire men to give the best there $i_3$ in them—namely: employment, personal gain, and co-operation. He used the most simple method in bringing these men together, who worked in harmony one with the other for the common good of them all. Each man of the fifty might have pulled against that pole until he was black in the face without any result, but when his strength was combined with forty-nine others, the rope tightened and the pole moved out of the ground. Now I have arrived at my main point. The editor of the California Eagle, who has spent so many sleepless nights, and day after day in weary toil and earnest effort to bring the Eagle up to its present high standard, has dreamed all along of the time when they could render you a greater service with a daily instead of a weekly paper. Always wide awake and on the alert for any person with an idea or suggestion which held the slightest possibility of materializing their dream, they have granted me the privilege of promoting a hunting party from their office. The activities of the party are to be directed through the Eagle office, or a supplement of it. Race pride is the game to be hunted. To my mind the telegraph pole referred to in the story, represents the misunderstanding which keeps us separated. Out of forty thousand Negroes in Los Angeles at least half of that number are sharp shooters. I mean men and women who are trained and skilled in trades, business, and profession. We want every man and woman of you to take a firm hold on the idea of co-operation, the rope we have attached to the pole of misunderstanding. You may or may not have seen somewhere along the beach a spring board where bathers spring off into the great ocean. Well, this get together movement is the initiative step toward the development of the ocean of possibilities that exists within us, as a group in Los Angeles. Co-operation is the big word. It is only through co-operation in its true sense that we can ever hope to come into our own. By co-operation we will come to enjoy the fullest possible fruits of that which is produced through our own efforts in industry. It is by co-operation that we can protect ourselves from the ravages of the solitary. It is with a co-operation of effort that all things not possible of accommodation by the individual are developed and brought about for the enjoyment of me. The basis for continuing co-operation is to be found in justice and fairness. We must get it imbedded in our minds that a structure of justice and confidence cannot be erected upon the ashes of selfishness and mistrust. We have old Mohammed who went to the mountain when he learned that the mountain would not come to him, skinned several points. For we have gone contrary to the usual custom of raising the Macedonian cry, for you of come over and help us carry out our plan. We have scaled the mountain of dislikes, prejudice and excuses and are bringing to you a well planned program, with appeals enough to reach you from several different angles. example of those who are succeeding around us daily. Get together, blend our ideas, harness our talent and put our money to work for us as well as for the other fellow. Time nor space will not permit us to tell all of the many different ways a membership in this hunting party will benefit you. But suffice it to say that this jarticular type of race pride hiding in our midst is as foxy as any fox. A crack shot is supplied with ammunition of fifty-seven varieties of reasons and excuses as to why a thing can't be done. As an artful dodger or a keen, sunning evader, he is in a class by himself. In the merry chase which he will lead, he furnishes fun galore, entertainment, instructions and education in organization and co-operation. So you see, to wage a successful campaign against a wily And lovers seek rest Where none will molest— Where nature gives her best and God gives more. And your light heart seems ever to soar; Where reign true love and peace And never cease Out in California free— There is always the heart of me!

The arena will be closed next week This is a movement to open and lead through the door of opportunity, where possibilities abounding are awakened, seized and materialized. It's a get-together movement to create confidence and better understanding among us. To bring about a closer relationship between man and man it is the right road to independence through application of the key which will perform the miracle of working the combination that will gain us the industrial, financial, and political foothold which we desire. As it will take everyone of our group in Los Angeles to put this program over we have made provision for "YOU" to carry out your ideas and plans. Someone has wisely stated that the American Negro, regardless of his war record, will never fight at his best until he fights for himself. Here's where you can get in your best kicks. Your talent, ability, cooperation, is all the weapon you need. A year's subscription to the California Eagle, goes to everyone joining this hunting party. Your membership will help dam the stream of your dollars, now flowing it to the coffers of men of other races, with business enterprises that will furnish employment for your boy, girl, father, or friend. But what's the use. My pen beats spark plug to a stand still, when I get to talking of the things that can be done. All that is required for you to do the same thing here that you do at a horse race, in a polker game or crap grame, use your judgment, if you think we can do it, favor us with your membership. We have the dice all trained to roll out service in every way. We are shooting constructive thought at you all the time, from every angle. Our point is that if you will co-operate with us, Negroes of Los Angeles can put over any project they wish to Why lend your money to the banks at four per cent, and enable them to reap from five to eight per cent from it on loans and investments, when here is an opportunity to lend yourself two dollars for your membership in this great Get Together move, and to start everything coming your way. It will enable the editors of the California Eagle to render you a greater service by carrying your message or advertisement to the people six times a week instead of once. You get a year's subscription in the first Negro daily publication on the Coast. The reason why the Jap, whites and members of other races are so successful in their undertakings, all around us is because they all work together for the common good of their whole race. By pledging your support and co-operation to this movement with a two-dollar subscription, you will help build a foundation of confidence, good-will, and co-operation, so essential to our welfare and you can have a voice, a vote and a place in forming an organization to meet the political, industrial and financial needs of one and all. We cannot hope to attain these blessing as individual effort if we Los Angeles Will Soon Be A City With a Population of 1,000,000 The rapid increase in population is bound to cause real estate to increase in value.

In the merry chase which he will lead; he furnishes fun galore, entertainment, instructions and education in organization and co-operation. So you see, to wage a successful campaign against a wily old bast, game as he is, and keep out of the range of his marksmanship, it is necessary and most essential that we be well organized and prepared to present a soldid front. Did you ever stop to think when admiring a great structural sky-scraper representing the strength of iron, steel, brick and cement, also the combined thought, talent, and effort of architect, contractor, and builder, backed by millions of dollars, that the common laborer was the first thing necessary and most essential to the erecting of the great building? Great organizations, institutions, or business are built upon that same principle. Christ demonstrated this simple plan of salvation through a life of service. So we offer you our service that you may utilize it in building a platform on which to stand. When we say YOU, we mean you young men and women from eighteen to eighty, in whom lack of opportunity has all but tilled ambition. You who have prepared to take your place with men and women of other races in the world of commerce, industry, and business. But when circumstance, necessity, or environment, have forced you into a life of mental labor such as waiters, pullman porters, and all other kind of porters, also bootbucks, who know so well the true value of service. This service is for everybody who wants to do something or see something done. Remember a daily sheet, a joy ride, a hunting party, and all the good things of life are yours. In this world that is required of you is to get in touch with the Eagle office and secure your membership in this hunting party. Memberships are two dollars. Don't wait, do it now. Two dollars will help draw the thirty thousand of our group into a working unit, and start them all working, "FOR YOU, WITH YOU, BY YOU." Membership to be had at the Eagle office. Come on, you don't have to wait a year or so, you can start something doing right now, today. Little David is at the steering, wheel, it's an open season, and game is plentiful along Central avenue.

OVER McKAY Sunny Jim, middleweight sensation, triumphed in his bout with Gordon McKay, with technical knock out in the second round at Madison Square Arena, Wednesday night. In the first Sunny Jim cut Gordon's left eye badly. However, both fought gamely with Sunny gaining slight margin. Near the end of the second Sunny forced McKay to the ropes and delivered volley after volley, but Leach Cross, of lightweight fame, who was refereeing, stopped him. Both boys have been creating a sensation recently by their clever work. A few days ago Sunny Jim was awarded the decision in the main event in San Francisco, while Tuesday night at Vernon McKay put up a great battle against Jimmy O'Haggen, coast middleweight champion.

Jones and A. Pope are residents of Chicago. Mr. Payne Middleton is in the city this week conducting a meeting under the auspices of the A. C. E. League.

The Daily Vacation Bible School: It is gratifying at times and under conditions to measure individual progress by other's inactivity. It is not highest type of gratification, but the primitive kind and the only kind that many know. Observe the enrollment; fourteen church schools are represented. 129 is the total enrollment, as follows: Grace Methodist 40, A. M. E., 12, United Brethren 33, First Christian 10, Bethel Mission 6, First Baptist 5, Nazarene, Calvary Presbyterian, Congregation 2, First M. E. 2, Colton M. E. 2, Second Baptist 2, Lutherian 1. Total from Methodist Bodies 53. (Free Methodist 2). Comment: We note according to announcement in the daillies that Mr. Jeffries, former pugilist has entered the arena of the combatants against sin, just what type of conversion that he has had is not determined, it sounds a bit like the Simon Magus type. He proposes to unify the white people religiously and send the Jews back to Palestine. We hope that he will have better fortune in his endeavor than he had in Australia some few years ago when he hung limply on the arm of a dusky son of Ham, in whom he proposed to pick out the yellow streak. There is no end to formalists, but it is as true today as it was the days when God incarnate walked the streets of Jerusalem and bade the sons of Abraham "To love one another, by this shall all men know that you are my disciples." Yes, how true also is this: "So many Gods, so many Creeds, So many paths that wind and wind. But all this poor world needs is just the art of being Kind." Have you seen a DURANT POINT Sport Model? If not, let me show it to you. I have just sold one of the first ever shown in this city. It's a pouch. Just talk with Staken. Brood way 119. THE ST.

Also our Local Minister, Rev. C. S. Holt, with our regular pastor occupying the pulpit. Rev. Shockley's message on Love was one of the greatest Bible orations ever listened to in this community which brought tears to almost every one within the sound of his voice, and we must say there are a very few God-sent men hsi equal. From a Biblical standpoint it is indeed a treat for anyone to hear this brilliant speaker. His many different portraits of love simply held the entire congregation spell bound from start to finish. There were many social functions in evidence last week. In the midst last week. In the midst of our intense heat and all of which were largely attended. The first in evidence was a brilliant brush in party which surprised two of our charming visitors, Miss Irma Thomas and Mrs. Eervilla Johnson of Clabourne, Texas, by the Destert Bunch composed of Mr. Leroy Washington, Mrs. Ethel Freeman, Mr. Rufus Evans and Oscar Greer with his mind on a vacation on the Hickman Home, Sand Lawn.

Baldwin Chapter of American War Mothers Honored The Maria Baldwin Chapter of American War Mothers was recently honored at the fourth annual State Convention of the California War Mothers (white) held in Santa Cruz, California. It was honored by having its delegate and War Mother. Mrs. Theodora L. Purnell of Oakland elected to serve as State Auditor for the coming year. The year book of the California War Mothers contains a memorial chapter to Maria Baldwin for whom the first colored chapter organized in the United States was so fittingly named. This chapter was written by Mrs. Purnell in her report of the chapter's year's work. It might be well to state that Mrs. Purnell was the leading spirit in the organizing of this chapter. The American War Mothers is an organization composed of Mothers and Sons and Daughters who served in the late World's War. Their object is to aid and sustain to commemorate deeds; to uphold the principles of justice—national and inter-national—and work in perfect harmony with the American Legions and its auxiliaries. The Colored War Mothers were not gathered together in a separate chapter because they were not welcome to become members in the several other chapters in the State, but because it is hoped that the Marla Baldwin Chapter and the work for which it stands will be an incentive for other colored chapters to organize throughout the United States. They will thus become a fitting memorial to the Colored Sons, Veterans of the late World's War. As as illustration of how well this colored chapter was received by the War Mothers Convention, Mrs. Purnell's paper, before the convention was enthusiastically received. Mrs. M. P. Murry, State War Mother, requested that this paper in "Spirit of the American War Mother" be printed and a copy sent to every chapter in the State, and to the War Mothers of New caland and England.

A large and enthusiastic crowd packed the Odd-Fellows Hall at 8th and Wall Street Sunday, July 15th, to witness the installation of the various officers. The Hon. Fred M. Roberts, Assemblyman for the 74th District was master of ceremonies. Before installing the officers, he asked if there is anyone who would like to give their opinion on the outgoing or the incoming officers. Among those who has commended on the subject was the Hon. Thomas Norris, Atty. Broyles, and "Brother Luke" who brings the key-notes in three words (their works shall be proven) which was very much applauded by the people, and was opened to be commended by the chairman. Officers who were installed were as follows: Hon. John E. Pitts, president; J. C. Slaughter, vice-president; J. W. Coleman, chaplain; C. E. McKinney, chairman of the program committee; S. W. Green, current topic-reader; and H. A. Howard reporter. After having installed the officers, the master of ceremonies, told to his hearers that one of the greatest achievements of the "Forum" in the last one and a half decade was on the line of education. It is one of the most vital proposition of a race, nation, or people to be accomplished. It will be the only solution, that will make better men and women in the communities in which they live. Therefore, I do truly hope that in the future, this organization may achieve much good for the betterment of our people both Industrially, Socially, and Educationally.

WARNER HONORED Household of Ruth, No. 6093, was instituted in El Centro, California, on last Monday evening, with twenty-one ladies and four brothers present. The organization of this Household adds another important link to the chain of this great Order. Beautiful indeed was the work performed by P. D. G. M. N. G., Mrs. Eliza Warner. The hall was spendidly decorated, and the ladies, all attired in white, made an inspiring picture. The officers were installed in the wee small hours of the morning, and the new Household retired to the banquet room where a spread fit for the gods was set forth. All expressed themselves as highly pleased with the work of Mrs. Warner, who, while in the city, was the appreciated house-guest of Mrs. Halle A. Gray. Mrs. Gray entertained with a reception for Mrs. Warner, at her beautiful home. Mrs. McCallum of Calexico also complimented Mrs. Warner with an elaborately appointed dinner. Household of Ruth, No. 6093, of El Centro and Calexico, gave a dinner and motor ride to Mexicali and other points of interest, in honor of the distinguished visitor. MEMORIES OF MOTHER Girls—Boys! You can't realize to the full the meaning of the word "Mother" till she has passed to the great beyond! But let me remind you that the best of all is Jesus, who can go all the way. I oftimes feel sad and lonely. Then I think of the great prophet, David, who said: "I once was young, and now am old! I have never seen the righteous forsaken, nor their seed begging bread." Mother's loving hand and arm are always protectingly about me, through my elder brother, Jesus Christ. And she shall never be forgotten. I hope that all you who are still blessed with a mother will stop and think—she is the dearest of all on earth! MRS. R. PATILLO-PORTER, Daughter. LAWRENCE GREENE-A REAL PAINT MAN. Lawrence Greene, who is Salesman for the Roberts' Mutual Paint Co., is doing remarkable work, not only selling but make a study of manufacturing. He is well pleased with the patronage accorded him. It is Lawrence's intention to unite the painters and builders; and to that end calls attention not only to the builders but the public at large, that he has a large list of Colored painters who are competent and able to do as efficient work as the white man. Any young man who wants to learn the painting trade see Lawrence who can place him; when the layman is competent he will get contracts. So let us all when we thing of paint think of "Our Lawrence." DEAN OF HOWARD UNIVERSITY EXPRESSIONS APPRECIATION Dr. W. C. Gordon of 1021 E. Washington street, is in receipt of the following letter: Howard University. Washington, D. C. July 5th, 1923. Dr. W. C. Gordon. 1021 East Washington St. Los Angeles, California. Dear Dr. Gordon: Accept my hearty thanks for the splendid contributions of the professional people and citizens of Los Angeles to the Endowment Fund. It is certainly most gratifying to feel that, although so far away from Howard the Alumni takes such a keen interest in her welfare. You may be interested to know that the amount needed has been passed, but you will readily understand that we will need a surplus to cover the pledges which will not be paid because of death or the inability to meet the obligation. I appreciate the fact that the Los Angeles Alumni must have done a great deal of work to obtain this amount and it certainly gives me a great inspiration to do more in the future. Gratefully yours.

We are watchfully waiting as we notice the various moves in the vice situation. We will cooperate at all times for the betterment of conditions and stand firm against outside interference in the affairs of the police department. The government founded on opinion and imagination reigns for some time, and this government is pleasant and voluntary; that founded on might lasts forever. Thus opinion is the queen of the world, but might is its tyrant. Jesus Christ is the central figure in the Scriptures. Around Him gathers all that they contain. He moves in the events of the older ages and is the great dictator of the world's events. He is the golden clasp of the two Testaments, and to the end of the last vision on Patmos He is most conspicuous. "What God hath joined together let not man put asunder," and yet history teems with millions of instances of this broken vow and millions more dread the coming of the judgment that must follow in the wake of this dreadful undermining of this sacred pledge. We are born with a disposition to love in our hearts which is developed in proportion as the mind is perfected and impels us to love what appears to us beautiful without ever having been told what this is. Who can doubt after this whether we are in the world for anything else than to love. In fact we conceal in vain what we always love. Man does not like to dwell with himself; nevertheless he loves. It is necessary then that he seek elsewhere for something to love. He can find it only in beauty, but as he is, himself, the most beautiful creature that God has ever formed, he must find in himself the model of this beauty which he seeks without—the beauty of character, manners and respect for those needing his exemplified life to lift the clouds of despondency that gather thick around their lives.

This action right off of the reel to our mind is a most unfortunate one for all of the people of this community. Ross qualified; ordnary procedure could not have evaded his appointment, but our new District Attorney went way outside of the ordinary or any other procedure and by extraordinary execution he dodged the law, violated and prostituted the civil service in order to deny forty five thousand people of his constituency representation in the department of justice for this county. Our new District Attorney had to stretch some but was equal to the occasion and did not strike Ross so hard as he did forty five thousand of his loyal constituents. Some day—Oh some day, our new District Attorney may need this same constituency which he has so ruthlessly denied. SUPERVISORS FAIL TO GIVE RECOGNITION Some people had the temerity to hope and abiding faith that our Board of Supervisors would name as one of the new justice of the Peace of police judges one of the three colored applicants, any one of which would have filled the office with honor and distinction. Then in the coming election it would have been up to the people to approve or disapprove the selection made. To our mind this would be the fair and just thing to do. However the appointments came forth and the "NOTHING DOING" sign was posted and we now have another guess a coming if we would be so brave as to think for one moment that our Board of Supervisors was going to give way to equity and representation as against color. Great things were expected of Supervisor Bean, we might however just as well be fair and realize that he had only one vote out of five. On the other hand there was five appointments and five Supervisors. Did each one of them control one appointment?

Time and again we have paid our hard-earned and precious dollars for one or two hours of terrific speech and picture-painting, only to find ourselves a few hours afterward in the same rut and category that we were in previous to the verbal effervence. They say that talk is cheap, but this talk that we have heard was rather expensive and fruitless. To a casual observer who desires to take a retrospective view of the situation, this would seem to be a logical conclusion, "Much has been said and nothing done." I will accounted to it a little as far as tangible results are concerned until it is shamful for us to be made conscious of the fact that we are so soft and easy. Preachers and pastors are berated and criticized for the clever way in which they lose their into ourockets with impromptu speeches and some unrecognized greetings of the Heavenly Father, yet, we can give them credit in spite of their shortcomings by using the finest monuments existing, church buildings.

"BLIND SPOT" MAY CAUSE ACCIDENTS By E. B, Lewis, B. Sc. M. D.—1618 1- East 9th Street. Everybody is blind in both eyes at definite spots. These blind spots are places in the seeing part—the retina—of the eyeball wall proper, where the optic nerve enters. The eyeball is like a cup and ball. That is to say, it is a ball at the end of a thick rope. The rope is the bundle of cable called the optic nerve, which spreads out fanshaped inside the back wall of the eye as a covering of rods and tops called the retina. The retina is the delicate covering of the interior of the eyeball which holds the impression and the picture of what the eye sees. The retina may be compared to a stationary film of a moving camera, the eyeball differing in its operation from a motion picture camera in that the eyeball moves around instead of the film, and that it constantly, and instantaneously develops its own pictures and forever renews itself. The eye perceives most things, when you pay attention to the realities around, but despite your best attention the most resourceful person with perfect eyes is blind to the things which fall upon the spot in the retina where the optic nerve enters it. Apparitions, ghosts, spirits and other alleged figments of the "imagination" are often illusions caused by a mix-up of the blind spot of one eye and the visual part of the retina of the other. Indeed, the blind spot is so large in focus that the head of a man or even the head of an eagle or a cat at a distance of six feet or so will fall upon it and be absolutely unseen. Indeed, you will honestly swear as a witness in court that there was no such thing present. Yet it is as large as the moon seems. Dr. Edna B. Dayton, an investigator of distinction, carried out successful experiments with subjects in rapidly moving automobiles, which prove that areas as large almost as 25 square feet; spaces six feet high and four and two-thirds feet wide in the broadest part; to a person riding in an automobile, a aeroplane or other rapidly moving vehicle will appear to be absolutely empty and void to the driver's eye on that side. Fine, many accidents are thus accounted for by Dr. Dayton. The chauffeur, driving at the speed of 25 to 35 miles an hour in a straightaway stretch of road, meeting anybody or anything, even the wheel or part of another automobile, whose driver's blind spot might simultaneously encounter the other's, could have a collision for which each would be guiltless. The discovery of Dr. Dayton is not at all startling. It is rather curious that physiologists had not previously thought to make such experiments to COMMENTS By: W. J.

We speak of the progress of the Japanese but it was never made by sending anywhere to get a bunch of speakers, or a group of orators, but to the contrary they clubbed together, bought land and made their dollars talk. Everyone as a result knows his history for it is written in the soil. The Negroes' history is written in the air in words and phrases. On the coast we have young people as brilliant, as well trained, and as thoughtful as anything you can get in Chicago or New York; they can do as much talking as any individual with a little time, so if you awake and awake and let's get someone who will come out here and show us not in word but in deed how to do some of these hypothetical propositions, he or she so intelligently proposes. We have had enough and we the next man an organizer and a doer. This is a business age and we need doers, men who will guide us in conquering intelligent America and frugal California. Phones: 820-389; 822-417 bring to light the fact that rays of light from anything which might fall upon the eye's blind spot will produce no perception of that object's existence. Not only most laymen, but many doctors are unaware or have wholly forgotten that they may be ever so resourceful, ever so truthful, ever so honest in their purpose to tell what is round about and yet say exactly what is not so because of the blind spot. Commonly, when a thing is not observed, you are told either that you have been inattentive or unobservant. I have heard a teacher upbraid a little boy "for never seeing what is on the blackboard" nearest to his side. It is more than probable that this bright child's location was such as to project an area on the board upon his blind spots. The way to make up for normal blindness in everybody's eyes is to keep your eyes-more in motion than the automobile driver usually does. A chauffeur should not keep a fixed stare ahead on the road. Moreover, each auto owner and each chauffeur should visit an experimental laboratory of psychology. In some university, and become familiar precisely with his own blind area. Then, by a small movement of the eyes the possible unseen area which might fall upon the blind spots are almost certain to fall upon the seeing parts of the eye. Question: W. N. S. My little boy who is twelve years of age has what my neighbors called the shingles for one week now. He does not appear to be very sick from it. My neighbors also advised me to see my shingles for if the shingles meet around the body, my boy will surely die. He is now under the doctor's treatment and apparently is doing well. But I am nervous over it and think that I would consult you about it. Oblige. Answer: Your neighbors have certainly carried you from the sublime to the ridiculous. And they are correct when they say that if the shingles meet your boy would die, for shingles never meet. The medical name for this condition is Herpes Zooster. It follows the course of the intercostal nerves. These nerves do not meet around the body, hence the impossibility of the disease meeting around. Your doctor will surely take care of the condition.

It is the same old cry: seeking to prove the lack of ability without giving a trial. The Negro medical profession has called its annual meeting to be held in the city of St. Louis, beginning the 28th day of August. At that meeting there will gather Negro men who have no peers in the realms of surgery and physics. There are surgeons who have held clinics abroad and have received the highest encomiums for their skill. Science knows no color line, but unfortunately politics rules where ability should prevail. There is no ability among hte personnel of surgeons and physicians who will gather in the city of St. Louis, then, our boasted progress of the race is a joke. But we know that among the men who will gather there, men can be found who will have the professional and executive ability to manage the hospital successfully.

Gray The following excerpt from the Etude concerning Cesar Franck, the Franco-Belgian composer, gives a faint idea of the manner in which great musicians work. Many persons believe that the lives of famous people are continuous rounds of fun and pleasure, when just the other thing is true. The article says: "The world has been celebrating the centenary of Franck, the Belgian composer who so greatly influenced the trend of modern French music. It is well, but there is a tragic irony in the fact that he was so badly neglected in his lifetime that the compositions of his which we esteem so highly were but fugitive works composed in hours literally stolen from the drudgery of a long day of teaching. His most distinguished pupil, Vincent D'Lindy, has written a loving biography of the master in which the following passage occurs. Budding geniuses who "haven't time" to write masterpieces should study it carefully. "The moral quality which struck us most in Frank is his great capacity for work. Winter and summer he was up at half-past five. The first two morning hours were devoted to composition—working for himself," he called it. About half-past seven, after a frugal breakfast, he started to give lessons all over the capital, for to the end of his days this great man was obliged to devote most of his time to teaching amateurs, and even to take the music classes in various colleges and boarding schools. All day long he went about on foot or by omnibus, from Auteuil to L'isle Saint-Louis, from Vaugirard to the Faubourg Poissiere and returned to his quiet abode on the Boulevard Saint-Michel in time for an evening meal. Although fired out with the day's work he still managed to find a few minutes to orchestrate or copy his scores, except when he devoted his evenings to the pupils who studied organ and composition with him, on which occasions he would generously pour upon them his most precious advice. "In these two early hours of the morning—which were often curtailed—and in the few he snatched during the vacation at the Conservatoire, Frank's finest works were concealed, planned and written." woman who complained of her neighbors lack of cleanliness, but could not see her own slainness. We accuse the Turk of criefly and practice what the "Unspeakable would inhibit" by posing up civilization on the Orient and practice things which make the Oriental sliver. It is a splendid policy. It diverts attention from our short-comings. Our "Holler than Thou" attitude is only a veneer to cover the deformities of racial hates; and the savagery which accompanies it. And the worst of it, we are lacking in heads of government who have the courage to act for the eradication of those evils. We are woefully lacking in the selection of heads of government who will speak and act for the entire personnel of the nation. We are lacking in the selection of men who head the government who can convince themselves that all men be given an equal opportunity and see that they have it. We are greatly in need of an executive who will not countenance segregation in the work of the government which he has been selected to control, but will demand and see that race and color shall be no bar to promotion but that ability under a black skin shall be recognized as well as under a white one. Lord give us such an executive, and give us the courage to keep trying until we find him! "Go listen to Franck's Symphony in D Minor and congratulate yourself that the composer was an early riser." We may add that the Symphony in question might have been founded upon modern ragtime motives, so syncopated is it first movement. This nummer is not the first one by local orchestras and should be bearded by all who are interested in fine music. THE MOVIES Eugene William Jackson, Jr. age 6 years, born in Buffalo, New York.

THE MUSIC LOVERS' SONG FEST MANAM. BRANDON SCORES. ON last Monday morning, the New Hope Baptist Church, under the able direction of Mme. Vijola Harris-Brandon, from $ 30 to $ 30,30 the New Hope Baptist Church Choir of forty members, rendered choice selections of Negro Folk Songs. Every Negro composer of spirituals was creditably represented, both by the choir and by individuals. A reading, "The Negro Woman," by Miss L. V. Williams was performed by the Negro spiritual numbers by Miss E. B. Washington had a very charming effect, for her lyric soprano yoive as example of a high tone placement was also characteristic of technic and harmony. "Deep River" in its latest variation arrangement was artistically played by Miss Catherine Swanson, for silence reigned while she played, and burst of applause when she ended, in a way that showed she had her audience in a grip of appreciation. Mrs. Anna Range showed a gifted talent in handling her Dunbar selections of Negro Dialect. The bartone solo by Mr. Lively was mortorlous of the much applause of appreciation shown him by the audience; he was enced time and time again. At the close of the program Rev. M. F. Mitchell of the Christian Church, ard Rev. Webb of the University Christian Church (white) graced the occasion with brief talks. These gentlemen were loud in their praise of Madam Brandon, for having given to the overflowing crowd such an evening of great delight. The directress was held out as a musician and choir leader second to none upon the Pacific Coast. Even though this young woman has been within our gates a short time, her worth in her musical activities is so pronounced and her power to impart the musical art to her pupils, that already Los Angeles' musical lovers are looking to this little women of rare attainment for leadership. CENTRAL AVENUE BUSINESS TO BE DEPICTED IN MOVIES Mr. Joe De La Crus, famous motion picture director, actor and producer, will within the next fortnight finish his 2 reel picture of Central Avenue business firm and at a later date at a place to be designated will show these pictures to the public. This is a unique advertising plan which strikes they realise that they can see the activities of their local business concerns in pictures. The picture will be a comedy drama written by one of the most famous story scenario writers and directed by Mr. De La Crue, who will put all of his skill of 14 years of movie experience and training into same.

Mr. De La Cruz was to start this film some time before, but being under contract with the Neva Gerber Co. it was impossible for him to start his Queen of Central Avenue, as he had two months more to go on his contract for the finishing of the famous historical serial, "The Santa Fe Trail" in which he took the third lead as the heavy of the serial which soon will be released and having finished with his contract he expects to start on the Queen of Central Avenue as soon as he gets at least one of the leading men he to co-operate with his ad campaign as he wants to make it a success. So much for the merchants of our race of this neighborhood as for his campaign as he is charging less than the cost of the film and expense. Being his first picture of this nature he wants to give the benefit of the first to this neighborhood on which he is a property owner. He has at our disposal the best motion picture equipment that money could buy with the most experienced still and motion picture camera men. Aside from the other equipment for perfect photography the film will be shown mostly in the colored neighborhoods here as well as in the theaters around Los Angeles and already have tentative offers of one of our leading dance halls to install a motion picture machine there to show it where at least a thousand people of our race will see it in a night. Every one of our merchants who is going to advertise in the picture he is going to advertise in the picture, he is play his own part. With the proper motion picture make-up and proper directing he thinks he can make them act like professionals. For information call Joe De La Cruz. Bwy 1627. J. R.
