NOW FOR THE
'Tis the coward who did 'Tis the knave who chased the battle is fought on. Then throws all his claws. The time to succeed is discouraged, show traps. 'Tis the fool who stands and WON twixt the earth.
Contestants who expect to be equally that it is necessary to do the finish as to who the real winner of this kind, but each of the "live" fought out during the next few days to a fateful close in just two weeks. TURNED IN THE MOST NEW rumors notwithstanding the strong leader up to the present time.
It is a strange coincidence to and surprises. These are the day's fulness and energy of the candidate takes the stiffness out of the thing in the dust. WHICH WILL ALSO RAN? Supreme courage of the 'Die' spirit is vitally important and be put forth NOW.
The first period which closes very productive time for the candidates cast, and even as we go to contestants are hitting a fast and their utmost because of the realization 8th, is the last day of the competition, therefore, one of the contestants is concerned with results accomplished by the various last two final weeks. The LIVING PART of the campaign is now at odds are practically on the side to win—those who have the ambition showing in the vote column are all of the whole campaign to forge votes. From now on to the finish work and 100 per cent results come.
And now for the whirlwind It is a subscription campaign, and tions to win.
Votes will be piling up much 14 DAYS.
LAST CHANCE FOR SECOND PERIOD "BIG VOTES" ENDS SAT., DEC. 1.
MISS CYNTHIA HILL WINS THE $50.00 SPECIAL MERIT PRIZE
NOW FOR THE FINISH
'Tis the coward who quits to misfortune
'Tis the knave who changes each day
The battle is fought on the home stretch
Then throws all his chances away.
The time to succeed is when others
Discouraged, show traces of tire
'Tis the fool who starts like a whirlwind
And WON twixt the flag and the wire.
Contestants who expect to be among the big prize winners equally that it is necessary to do hair line figuring to determine the finish as to who the real winner will be. The above is not of this kind, but each of the "live wire" candidates who are fought out during the next few days, for the Campaign comes to a fateful close in just two weeks from this Saturday. JUST TURNED IN THE MOST NEW YEARLY SUBSCRIPTIONS rumors notwithstanding the struggle for supremacy will be the leader up to the present time.
It is a strange coincidence too, something unusual in affair and surprises. These are the days which will test the resourcefulness and energy of the candidate. Here is where their courage takes the stiffness out of their kness and leaves them trailing in the dust. WHICH WILL IT BE? WILL YOU BE AN ALSO RAN? Supreme courage is needed in this fight, "Do or Die" spirit is vitally important and your greatset efforts must be put forth NOW.
The first period which closed last Saturday night was a very productive time for the candidates. Thousands of votes were cast, and even as we go to press this week, the aggressive contestants are hitting a fast and furious pace—urged on to do their utmost because of the realization that Saturday night, December 8th, is the last day of the race.
The competition, therefore, so far as the relative standings of the contestants is concerned depends almost entirely on the results accomplished by the various workers between now and last two final weeks. The LIVEST and most IMPORTANT PART of the campaign is now at hand. And while all the candidates are practically on the same footing—those who want to win—those who have the ambition and energy to make a total showing in the vote column are afforded the biggest opportunity of the whole campaign to forge ahead and get the winning votes. From now on to the finish is the time when 100 per cent work and 100 per cent results count.
And now for the whirlwind finish. Now for the sensations It is a subscription campaign, and you will have to get subscriptions to win.
Votes will be piling up much more rapidly during these 14 DAYS.
NOTICE
This is to certify that The California Eagle, Los Angeles, Cal., has this day purchased one brand new, latest outfit, of American GIRL HOLIDAY, which is to be given away absolutely free as one of the many prizes in The California Eagle's "Everybody Wins" $1,000 Grand Prize Distribution.
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, NOVEMBER 23.1923
SECOND PERIOD VOTES
IMPORTANT
The last big vote offer of The California Eagle's short campaign comes to a close in just two weeks from this Saturday night, December 8th, at 10:00 o'clock
After next Saturday night the lowest vote of the entire campaign goes into effect. Between now and Saturday night, December 1st, a one year subscription counts 12,000 votes—a two year subscription counts 30,000 votes—a three year subscription is worth 65,000 votes—a four year subscription credits you with 125,000 votes—a five year subscription is worth 280,000 votes, and a ten year subscription credits you with 610,000 votes. The $00,000 EXTRA FREE VOTE OFFER remains in effect throughout the entire program. For example—just 17 one year subscriptions at $2.00 each will count 304,000 votes between now and next Saturday. Two five year subscriptions and one ten year subscription will count you 1,270,000 votes. By a little figuring you can see that a few very big subscriptions will put any candidate in the lead—or in fact an entirely new candidate with no votes at all to his credit at this time could out distance all his competitors.
BETTER BE SAFE THAN SORRY
A few more laps and the course will
have been run.Only a short time
remains for you to choose between
victory and defeat. WHICH SHALL IT BE? Don't overlook a single chance to better your condition to win—avail
yourself of every single chance these
next few closing days.
THE SUBSCRIBER'S PART
Contestants must necessarily depend upon the assistance of their
friends and acquaintances to win or
lose. IF YOU have not as yet paid up
your subscription—do so at once, and
help one of the ambitious candidates
along. Your subscription will be wel
comed and an offer of voluntary
assistance will meet with just appreciation of the recipient. You probably
intend taking The California Eagle.
You need it and should get it if you
want all the ntws; so why not pay
for two three-four-five or ten years
and give the votes to the candidate
of your choice.
WARNING
It should be remembered that the last of the big votes will be discontinued after Saturday night, December 1st, at 9:00 o'clock, after which the very lowest vote offer of the campaign goes into effect. IT IS IMPERATIVE for the candidates to work hard every remaining day if they wish to win.
Attention is again called to that part of the rules and regulations which says that should any candidate become INACTIVE, failing to make a weekly cash report he or she will thereby forfeit all rights to a prize or a cash commission. There is no cause for a misunderstanding of this rule, and it will be strictly enforced. There are some candidates whose names appear in the standings of the Continued on Page 10

Mrs. Florence Browning was arrested by Officers Sheffield and Corley. She confessed to shooting her husband, Daniel Browning, age 28 years of 819 Linden Street, Police Surgeon Saverian removed a bullet from Browning's abdomen which may prove fatal. He was removed to the General Hospital. Mrs. Browning's statement to officers Sheffield and Corley was that he tried to inflict a beating upon her while intoxicated. The couple have only been here a short time from Austin, Texas, and she was arrested at 1575 East 22nd Stret where she was hiding with friends.
A RACE SELLER EXPOSED AGAIN
The Pittsburgh Courier this week has scored a scoop on a notorious Race Seller. Into its hands fell a letter from the sable Emperor of Africa, one Marcus Garvey, sent to a United States Senator. The Senator in all probability handed it over to the Courier. Such letters are by no means new to Senators. Every once in a while some Negro presents some little scheme for colonizing Negroes in Africa, Mexico, some Southern state, the moon, Mars or Heaven. Only about two years ago Professor Neval Thomas of Washington happened into a conference with some senators and congressmen where another hat-in-hand Negro was trying to get some money from Congress supposedly to carry out a colonization scheme in Texas. Of course this Negro did not explain how he was going to get Texas, and how he was going to get all the white people out and all the Negroes in. By the same token Marcus Garvey is constantly floored when asked these elementary questions. Garvey's letter is a fitting sequel to his Ku Klux Klan statement of a year and a half ago. Consequently from the point of view of venality, silliness and absurdity, no one is or should be surprised.
Despite the recognized absurdity, however, of the going-back-to-Africa fanatics—this is a fallacy which needs constantly to be refuted. It is a well known rule of psychology that a lie often repeated gets to be believed. It cannot therefore too strongly be reiterated that the Negroes should not go to or back to Africa if they could, and what is quite as important, the Negroes could not go to Africa if they would.
Next, Africa does not need any more Negroes: it has too many already. Africa needs to have Negroes leave it. If about fifty million Negroes could migrate from Africa, it would have an effect upon the continent very much like the effect of the Negro migration during the past few years from Dixie to the North.

Women Go Over Top. OPENS NEW HOME.
Last Sunday, November 18th, at Independent Church, the women were in charge of the day's activities, and, needless to say, covered themselves with glory.
Speechs, music and other features enabled the clever, industrious and loyal feminine cohorts of the Independent to go over the top, and demonstrate that Woman is Man's Equal in Any, and Superior in many, fields of Endeavor and usefulness.
An address by Mrs. Estelle Lawton Lindsey, brilliant journalist and humanitarian, was a noteworthy feature of the day's program.
The men have not had their inning yet, but tit is safe to say that to woman, triumphant will fall the honor and glory of unveiling the great pipe organ within a few days.
THANKSGIVING
By Violet Alleyn Story
As we have gathered in rich harvests from Thy fields.
As we have taken lovely fruits from beeding trees.
So gather Thou, O God, Thanksgiving
from our hearts.
So take Thou gratitude from those on bended knees.
We sowed the ground with humble seeds, but Thou hast sown
And if, from such a source our harvest was so fair,
Oh, how much fairer should Thy harvest be above?
We've seen our tiny seeds yield flower, and fruit, and grain.
A myriad blossoms in each garden bed..
Frail petals formed into the apple, near and alum.
So may'st Thou see Thy seeds have born Thee beauty too,
Delightful songs and poems, pictures like glad flowers,
And kindly thoughts become great deeds like ripened fruits,
And thankfulness to give Thee cheer in quiet hours.
As we have gathered in rich harvests from Thy fields,
As we have taken lovely fruits from bending trees,
So gather Thou, O God, Thanksgiving from our hearts,
So take Thou gratitude from those on bended knees.

WHY BOYS LOSE FIRST POSITION Lack of responsibility, unwillingness to work hard, lack of thickness, false notions about salary and promotion and lack of principle are the five reasons why (90) per cent of the boys and girls of the United States lose their jobs, according to a report made to the Chicago Association of Commerce. Report noted that 90 per cent of the boys and girls lose their first position. The record also shows that in nine cases out of every ten the loss of position can be traced to one of five reasons noted.

PASTOR AND FAMILY ROYALLY ENTERTAINED AT SAN FRANCISCO
Editor of The California Eagle:— After wishing you and the entire force of the soaring Eagle a happy Thanksgiving, allow me to say that we were royally entertained by the citizens and churchmen of San Francisco, Friday evening, November 9th.
The ladies of the Junior Stewardess Board, of which Mrs. G. W. Morris is the efficient president gave us a royal welcome. When we entered the spacious lecture room which was filled with happy people from both sides of the bay, we were ushered to the center of a row of tables rectangular in form, and which were filled with a merry crowd.
Here the ladies of the church and board began to serve us with a splendid repast consisting of chichen salad on lettuce, saltines, olives hot coffee, ice cream, cakes and after dinner mints. About the time we began to enjoy the repast, Mrs. Tulip Jones came forward with the program of the evening, which was rendered as follows:
Anthem ..... Bethel Choir
Grace ..... Rev. W. J. L. Byers
Welcome Address in behalf of the citizens ..... Atty. Mabson
Solo ..... Miss Ketrell
Welcome Address in behalf of the Zion A. M. E. Church
The real secret of promotion lies in doing more than you are paid to do. Keep yourself underpaid, as soon as you are overpaid you are bound to go backward. Lack of principle is shown in concealement of mistakes, untruthfulness and the constant making of excuses.

BRILLIANT RECEPTION AND DANCE
One of the most interesting events of the season was last Thursday evening, Nov. 15th, when Mr. and Mrs. Henry F. Nelson, of 2105 Arapahoe St., gave a reception and dance at Normandale hall for more than one hundred friends and acquaintances. Mr. Nelson and a few of his closest friends spent more than two days decorating the hall. The color scheme was red, green and yellow, special decorations were prepared. Each corner of the hall and the South-end of the platform stood tall date palms, while on each side of the hall stood baskets of various chrysanthemums, on the north corner of the platform, sat a huge bowl of holly berries and pointsettia, while at each door and in the ladies parlor stood floor lamps.
The double doors were thrown open into the dining room which made a lovely view and back ground, in the center of the table stood a large basket of chrysanthemums, while on the south-end was a large cut glass punch bowl filled with ice cold punch, to quench the gentleman's thirst, who stood around in large numbers in their full dress suits admiring the ladies at the north-end of the table, as they stood about in their dainty togs around a beautiful square silver platter filled with various kinds of homemade cake. Mrs. Nelson wore a beautiful imported beaded sarice gown, she was assisted in receiving by Mrs. Lizzie Patterson who wore a lovely beaded gown; Mrs. Irene Butler, wearing a spaghetti net, over a pale pink satin in with a large bow of tulle pink and blue tied on each side.

If You Fail To Read---THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE--You May Never Know It Happened
PEOPLE'S INDEPENDENT
CHURCH OF CHRIST
Cor. 18th and Paloma Sts.
Rev. N: P. Greggs, Paistor
Many of the recent events of this church institution are characterized by a significance that will mark an epoch in the history of not only this organized Christian body, but will add to the distinction of the city of Los Angeles. Last Sunday was Women's Day. The women placed their names in the registry of fame in their telling efforts to reach their goal. Their speaker for the morning services was, Mrs. Ida H. Ford, who delivered an excellent sermon from the text, "Rejoice ye with Jerusalem". All music numbers were very good. In the evening an excellent discourse was given by Mrs. Charlotta Bass, Managing Editor of the California Eagle. Her talk was filled with logic and was very inspiring to women as well as instructive to men.
Next Sunday, November 25th is Men's Day. The men of the church are extending to the public a cordial invitation to be present at their Men's Day program. Peerless speakers of the day. At 11 a.m. a masterly sermon will be delivered by Dr. N. P. Greggs, Text 1st Epistle of John, 3rd Chapter and 1st verse: "Behold what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us that we should be called the sons of God." The morning services will be featured by unusual activities of the men of this and other churches and organized bodies of men of the city. Special music of rare excellence is to be rendered. The evening program will be very inspiring, musical a and instructive. Los Angeles favorite speaker, an orator of National fame, will cap the climax and crown the occasion with a matchless address. Financial reports will be heard from both men and women, the decision of which will give to the victor the right to unveil the magnificent pipe organ. Those desiring seats or standing room should come, early to both morning and evening services.
On the second Sunday in December on the 9th, the great pipe organ will be unveiled. The following Monday night, Dr. Ray Hastings will give the first pipe organ recital. On next Thursday morning, Thanksgiving special thanksgiving services will be held to the hour 11 cclock. The Eastside Board will serve dinner. At night a special musical program will be rendered.
WARD CHAPEL' A. M. E. CHURCH
1252 East 25th St.
B. R. Guy. Pastor
Regular services at this church last Sunday. The Sunday School showed great interest. The offering increased creditably.
At the morning service the Pastor spoke from the text. Enter ye in at the straight gate. There were many visitors present, and the large mixed congregation gave special attention and a number of Amens, were heard in different parts of the congregation.
Both Endeavors had good lessons, and at night, Rev. Redden perished from the text, Never Neglect an Opportunity. The mixed audience gave good attention.
Next Sunday will be Trustee Day and you are cordially invited to be with us.
We are laboring for a Special Thanksgiving Spiritual Rally for Nov 29th. Come and give thanks with us at 11 a.m. that day.
TABERNACLE BAPIST CHURCH
12th and Hemlock Sts.
Rev. J. D. Gordon, Pastor Our Sunday School with Mrs. Regular as Superintendent, was well attended, and is doing great work among the young people of our Church, and is growing both in interest and attendance.
For the morning service the Pastor continued his series of sermons on the Lord's Prayer, "Give us this Day Our Daily Bread, many were present to listen to this wonderful subject explained. We are glad to note the fact that the doe of peace has returned, in Tabernacle Church, and its a jpy and pleasure to mingle with its members, therefore we extend an invitation to all who wish to listen to a gospel that is elevating and soul-stirring, our members continue to return back to their home of worship, on the 25th, of this month the Rev. Lewis, the great song evangelist will start his campaign in Tabernacle, and the public is invited to come out and hear him, our pastor Rev. Gordon will fill the pulpit.
Sunday night the pastor took for his text, Psalms 19:7. Subject: "Perfect Peace." At no time since his return has the pastor been at himself, as he was Sunday night and the presence and power of the Holy Ghost was so great that men and women without a church home rushed in and those unsaved cried out for Prayer.
WESLEY M. E. CHURCH-
8th and San Julian Sts.
Rev. A. P. Shavr, Pastor
Women's Day will be celebrated in great fashion this Sunday at Wesley M. E. Church. Among the morning speakers will be Miss Bessie W. Simon, Social Worker of Memphis, Tennessee. The whole service will be in charge of the women. A fine program is being prepared for the evening service. A great treat is in store for all. Come early for a seat both morning and evening.

Dec. 16th will be the closing day. Both the men and the women are determined to excel each other in the offering. The winners will be banqueted by the losers on Thursday night in the Christmas Holidays. Our motto is "Everything at its best
Our motto is "Everything at its best this year. Come and see!
NOTEWORTHY TRIB- UTE TO PASTOR
REV. FLETCHER LAUDED
Rev. J. E. Fletcher, a very capable pastor of twenty-one years' experience, and who has pastored a great many churches in California, very successfully, has come to os ANgelees to take charge of the 2nd A. M. E. Church. He comes to us from San Bernardino, California, where he did a wonderful work for such a small community. When he took the charge of pastoring St. Paul's A. M. E. Church, there was an indebtedness of $2500.00. That was in October, 1922, and in July, 1923, a short space of time amounting to nine months, he had paid off the $2500.00 debt and had made a $850.00 improvement on the parsonage and church. The church was in a very poor condition; grimy, very much in need of paint and numerous other rundown conditions.
Since coming to us at the 2nd A. M. E. Church, he has reorganized the Community Improvement Association, started the Ladies' Aid Society to work for the new year, and organized a Forum, which promises to be a very interesting issue.
From the sermons that I have heard him expound on, I can say, that the 2nd Church will soon be ablaze with the fire of hope again. He is a very capable and amiable leader and speaker. Judging from the way the people of the community are responding to his call for support, we will not have room for the accommodation of them in the small church we have, but will have to branch out and find a larger one.
May God help him to succeed onward, upward, and forward.
MRS. JULIUS M. BAKER, Social Editor of the 2nd A. M. E. Church.

BETHEL BAPTIST CHURCH
Y. M. C. A...9th and Hemlock Sts.
Rev. H. D. Provid, Pastor
Our Sunday School was attended with usual interest. The lesson—"Jesus The Missionary." was read and discussed most profitably. One in the Pastor's class was so impressed that she expressed a desire of following the Saviour. Our Vice-Superintendent, Mrs. Gallerson is on the sick list, but she is convalescing and will soon be out with us again.
At the 11 o'clock service we enjoyed a season of refreshing from the text, "O. send cut Thy light and Thy Truth and let them lead me unto Thy Holy Hill, and unto Thy Tabernacles. The B. Y. P. U. session was very helpful. The subject "How to study the word of God" was discussed by all.
At night the pastor spoke from Luke 17:17. "Where are the Nine?" Our services are more than ever delightful and encouraging. We cordially invite all our friends to them—but come praying for a blessing.
HAMILTON M. E. CHURCH
E. 18th St. and Naomi Ave.
Rev. S. M. Beane, Pastor
Great revival services are in progress at this church, conducted by Bro. William Lewis of Chicago. The spirit of the Lord is working mightily, and many have been added to the church, and many have gone to other churches of the city. On Sunday the pastor preached to audiences that taxed the large capacity of the building, and in a fine and devotional spirit, Bro. Lewis conducted the evangelistic services. His singing touched all hearts and brought the large audiences to tears as he poured out his soul in song, for the Master whom he is lifting up. The coming of Bro. Lewis to this church and to this city is a benediction and a blessing. Each night during the week the church has been crowded with persons eager for the message and the gospel songs. Special features marked the services each night. Mr. and Mrs. Fishburn spoke during the services, and delivered messages that thrilled each heart. Bro. Shaw preached a great sermon at the "Old Time Service on Monday night." On Wednesday

MADAME TYREE BRILLIANT
Those who were fortunate enough to hear Madame Bertha Dickerson Tyre last Sunday afternoon are still being thrilled by the memory of her vocal accomplishments.
Madame Tyre is the most accomplished singer that has come to us from the East. She is the possessor of a large voice, of wide range and wondrous sweetness. Although billed as a dramatic soprano she seems equally at home in coloratura, as was shown in the aria "Caro, Nome" from Rigoletto.
A charming personality, plus brains, which is lacking in many singers, assist in making her a fine artist. The large audience was vociferous in its applause of this deserving singer. Although greatly handicapped by the low pitch of the piano which prevents ed the best points of her voice from being heard she gave a good account of herself throughout the program. It is hoped that she will be heard under more favorable conditions in the near future. The Bridgetower trio assisted in varying the program.
RACIAL CONSCIOUSNESS.
When will the Negro be invincible and invulnerable? When he realizes the utter futility of passion's sway, when conscience and thought point a nobler way. The only thing that will adjust the inter-complex racial problems and racial antipathies is a concrete and consistent programme of racial solidarity. The recent uprising in Oklahoma, and the precedent advanced by the Mayor of Johnstown, Penn., are positive indications that the partiality frozen in the veins of the whites is intensifying as the days roll on.
Providence will never modify moblawlessness, iniquity, injustice, ruthlessness which encircles the American Negro. The remedy lies in harnessing all our power and pooling all our strength in an effort to create a proper social and moral standard so that we could neutralize and counterbalance the abominable atrocities and hatred which had hitherto percolated the atmosphere of America.
The Jew is not estracized from society like the Negro. Why? Because

If the Negro had an economical and financial status, which can only be acquired through sheer cooperation, he would be given greater respect and recognition by the Caucasian race. Again, we may ask. Why? The answer is this—because he would then stand for something in the machinery of the world's commerce and trade.
The Caucasian may not champion the idea of giving the Negro greater recognition out of love, but if his position, economically and financially, was like that of the Jew, commercial necessity would compel greater recognition. A great many people try to scorn the Jew in account of his race, but they are compelled to look up to him because he controls the money market of the world.

GREAT SERVICES COME TO A
CLOSE
Great Revival services have been conducted at the Hamilton M. E. Church, on the corner of 18th Street and Naomi avenue by Brother William Lewis, for the last ten days. He has been greeted on each evening by huge crowds that have taxed the seating capacity of this very splendid building. He has sung his way into the hearts of men, and many have come forward to renew their vows and accept the Savior for whom he is pleading. These evangelistic services will come to a close on Monday night, November 26th with a great lecture by Brother Lewis, known as the "BOTTLE LECTURE". Come and receive the lessons it will teach. This will be the farewell service for this church. The Choirs of Wesley M. E. Church and Phillips Chapel C. M. E. Church will be present and render some selections. This will be a great service. Don't miss it.
"FEMALE OF THE SPECIES"
By Edna Steward
There is a time (set aside by hte Church) when woman in the fulness of wisdom and glory presents herself to the public. This time has been christened "Woman's Day."
On this day woman reigns supreme. She sings and the angels hover near, she speaks and her audience is spellbound at her utterances. She superintends or governs with judgment and grace as she moves about clothing in beauty and poise.
If you have seen "The Female of the Speckes" so enveloped and wish to review the scene, or if you have not witnessed such a glorious and grand

Rev. J. A. H. Eldridge, Pastor
Our services all day were good and up to the standard. The lesson taught in the Sunday School was full of interest and inspiring. At 11 o'clock, the pastor, in his Christ-like manner expounded the word of truth to us. His text was taken from Mark 2:4. It was very plain, but practical and helpful. Our B.Y.P.I. is very much alive. A great progress is shown. Rev. J. Madison Young, one of the Baptists' strongest theologians, filled the pulpit at 7:30. He spoke on the great love of God. His text was taken from John 3:16; "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life" We always feel very highly honored when it is our privilege to have Rev. Young with us. He spoke very encouragingly about our pastor and the work we are doing. Come out and help us make Trinity a greater church. A welcome for all.

IN THE MUSIC WORLD
By John A. Gray
In the current issue of the Etude which, by the way, is of special importance on account of its being the fortieth anniversary number, there is an editorial called "A Master Lesson."
This editorial attracts great attention for two special reasons. The main one is the value of the article itself and the great principle set forth therein. The second one is the fact that this master lesson is given by a colored man.
The master lesson as set forth there, gives the very essence or kernel of a master lesson from any of the world-famed teachers. Its principles are the root and foundation of all good playing. It immediately shows the reason why there are so many players and so few artists. It tells why students waste so much time and accomplish so little. It appeals to the mind of a pupil. It shows him why. It is the real master lesson.
Since it is given by a colored man, the conversation is in dialect and is true to life. We are proud that in this special anniversary number of the Etude, whose circulation is in the hundred thousands, and whose pages are read by people all over the world, that an editorial is written around a "Master Lesson" which, even if fictitious, is attracted to the brain of a Negro. Beneath the humor of the lines, one is conscious of the fact that a great honor is being paid to the race, in that it proves that he is capable of producing something greater than the barbaric strains of Jazz. But then, let us give you the article complete, for your own consideration: A Master Lesson
Esau played the slide trombone with more exopthalmic joy than any dusky descendant of the African veldt we have ever heard. Each brazen note pealed forth with the hsoul of Esau exalted to the earnestness of Gabriel. Every spare moment in the day found him with the trombone pressed to his lips. Nighttimes he kept it under his bed.
Once Esau's teacher, who also hailed from Georgia, visited him and found the pupil practicing. We overheard a lesson, which was pedagogically so much finer than many we have heard in so-called high-class conservatories that we recount it here. During the lesson Esau was mute save for trombone toots and blasts and intermezzi of uncontrollable, joyous laughter.
"Mawinin', Esau. Look here, boy. What you all doin'? Call dat practicin', "Humph! You done gone play dat same note over 'bout a hundred times. Yas, I know it say it dere in de music; but how come you n't use yo' haid? Ef you can walk there ain' nothin' more to learn about walkin' You jes naturally walks. Wat's all What you want to learn is to dance. You got to learn to buck and wing on that tube. Yo uain't never gone to learn to dance by jes walkin'. You's afeard to to buck and wing. 'Fraid you gone to fall down an bust yo' haid. Gimme that trombone. Now play this lak I do. Thats right. Of course yo' make mistakes; but if yo' spen' as much time trying to buck and wing as yo' been spendin' walkin', yo' gonna get up in the second line in de band. Stop! Stop! What kind of noise is that? Yo' got blinders on yo' ears. Yo' got to taste music with yo' ears, boy. just like yo' tastes chicken with yo' mou' If it don't taste right try another bite till yo' satisfied 'Tain' no use yo' blowin' on that tube like yo' blowin up an automobile tire Remember yo' makin' music, not jei makin' wind."

"B Square" Masonic Club Entertains State Grand Master J. H: Wilson (By William Melly Watson)
By William Mells Watson)
The "B Square Masonic Club", a group of Masons from the five local lodges as well as those of neighboring cities with Joseph L. Oliver. Senior Warden of Holland Lodge as its president, and while only four months old now boasts a membership of 76 Master Masons, who on the second Wednesday night of each month meet at Parish Hall where the most enjoyable, educational and thoroughly interesting times possible for 76 regular fellows to have are had.
On the night of October 10, the club out did itself in entertaining its honored guest J. H. Wilson, Grand Master of the State of California, and just about went over the top in its declaration of support toward the proposed jasonic Temple which the Grand Master assured us is to be erected here instead of Oakland as originally planned.
Hot shot and live wire remarks that preceded Grand Master Wilson's never to be forgotten talk were made by Claude McKinney, the famour 'paramentarian'. Rev. Byron and the illustrus orator W. O. T. Also our most distinguished "past master." Wallace Clark shot a wad of salt peter into the enthusiastic assemblage in his usual jovial and interesting manner. Everything was at attention when the Rev. J. H. Wilson, State Grand Master arose and electrified the Solonites with his most timely remarks and agreed to become a Square Club

GARVEY HEARD IN LOS ANGELES
BY: E. L. DORSEY
Staff Reporter
The New Tabernacle Baptist Church was filled to overflowing last Monday night, to hear Marcus Garvey extoll
A.
GARVEY SPEAKS
his theories and philosophy of the Negro Race, discussing its ills and defect, and suggesting their remedy, as he sees it.
His recent incarceration in prison dies not seem (outwardly at least) to have dawnted his ambition and determination to carry thru his program as originally launched. In fact, he was more fiery than ever, and the 1500 or more people who packed the church edifice to capacity and more, were held spellbound for an hour and a half by his eloquence.
The merits and demerits of Garveyism have been a subject of public discussion for some time, throughout the country.
His visit to Los Angeles and the West at this time has aroused a great deal of interest, pro and con, and will have a more direct bearing than anything else as to whether Garvey is to continue or be submerged by recent events which placed him in the shadow of the penitentiary, caused one of his former leaders to be assassinated and several others to be arraigned for misappropriating the funds of the organization.
Mrs. J. H. Shackelford, well known reactor, is traveling extensively throughout the East and Middle West. He reports having a highly enjoyable trip. Mr. Shackelford is a keen observer, and promises interesting and illuminating comments on conditions in general, upon his return.
EDUCATIONAL NOTES
What the Night School Offers
Opportunity lies, trampled upon,
like a banel-hoop beneath your feet.
You walk upon it, it flies up and hits
you in your face, you curse it, cast at
aside and go on. Every night hundred
sit within the walls of one of
the city schools, seeking opportunity,
hiding in her lair while others shun
her as she she was a deadly leper.
The young bricklayer, plasterer, day
laborer, sits for a few hours fitting
himself to become the boss, foreman,
and eventually the contractor while
a thousand dof his fellow workmen
squander their good wages upon the
pool table, dance floor, and street corner,
laying the foundation for sorrow,
bitterness, disillusion and what-might
have-been-bad-done-so-and-so.
The house girl, maid, stock girl, etc. sits in a movie, while a fraction of her sisters plugs away at the old typewriter, bones away at stenography, millinery, dressmaking, beauty culture, and the other subjects that the study of will cause to be better and bigger men and women.
A hundred young Negro men sweat and frolic upon the dance hall floor while one studies house wiring, ignition, auto mechanics, sheet metal, etc., and this time to go home to his well-earned rest.
Five hundred young Negro women perspire and frolic upon the dance hall floor while one studies for her future.
Ten years hence there will be one hundred porters, bootblacks and scavengers, to the one independent electrical contractor. There will be five hundred cooks, servants, and other menials, medicolewives and uneducated helpmates to the most common of the
fellows as compared with the one woman in the independent position who is then the companion to the man who has gone ahead.
Young man, young woman, old man, and old woman, acres of diamonds are under your feet, wealth and position are but for the grasping. Ask yourselves where and what you'll be when June rolls round. Seek and find out what you can be when June rolls round. Join the night school class, use the time you throw away. When June comes your time will be worth more to someone else. That's what really counts. That's what the night school offers.

The young women of this city who have struck the eye of this observer as having had a thought to the public welfare as well as being representative members of their particular groups are Misses Addie Hutchinson, Berthelia Glenn, Hilda Johnson, Edith Hundnell, Milred Washington, Eda Hurd, Rowena Muckelroy, Edna Johnson, Naida McCullough and Rosamell Hebert.
From conversation and association "Observer" has noticed that these are not content with being merely social butterflies, but want to do something. The people can expect great things of the above.
Rev. Douglas of Louisville, Ky., one of the most distinguished elders of the Apostolic Faith, and a member of the P. F. of W., is visiting Elder W. M. Carson and congregation at their beautifululu new edificeg at 1122 E. 33rd street, near Central Ave. Rev. Douglas is not a stranger in our midst. We remember him for hihs soul-stirring sermons here a few weeks ago at the above named church. Rev. Douglas is known throughhouht the East and Middle West as an authority on Biblical theology. He will be in our midst until Elder W. M. Carson is fully able to resume his duties as pastor. The public is cordially invited to attend all the services and hear this great man of God.
MEN'S SCORE
THE BRANDON MALE CHORUS
MAKES CREDITABLE HISTORY
Perhaps never in the annals of Los Angeles musical world was such performance of rhythmical succession of harmony displayed by a chorus consisting of more than thirty male voices as was staged at the New Hope Baptist Church last Tuesday evening-by Madam Brandon and her male chorus. When the competent teacher of the chorus emerged from an anteroom in view of the audience, her face was so dazzled with the musical art that the audience was enthralled with her majestic presence. Ere long a note was sounded representing the very poetry of motion, more than thirty men followed on, and halted at the command of their leader, and then, in an outburst of harmonious melody they sang the "Rose Maiden", and before the enraptured audience could control itself under the spell of such an unprecedented experience, the thirty or more voices rang out in still more thrilling tones, in Negro Melodies, "Its Me, Oh Lord," "The Gospel Train." Just in time to save the rapt audience from a complete state of ecstacy, a change in the program took place. Gilbert Allen at the piano displayed unspeakable technique in "Impromptu", and "Rust of Spring." Prof. J. C. and Banke appeared in "Lasca", (a Texas Romance), and was esteemed and pleasing that he was enclosed and spell of jovialness. Then the Brandon Jubilee Quartette consisting of Messrs. Hollins, Von Meter, Coleman and Biggers in "Come Where the Lillies Bloom" added several degrees to the musical thermometer. The Chorus again sang, "O! Lovely Night." Space would not permit to speak of the most excellent skill with which Ashford, in "My Task", Atwell Rose, "Mole Perpetuus" and Dewey Johnson's "Invocation to Life" and "Lullaby", "Miserere" led by Madan Anna Range, Sorrano and Mr. Chas H. Boston, Tenor, with the Chorus joining in. Finale "Goodbye", by the Chorus. The sentiment of all present was voiced in one expression by one of the guests of the evening.

DISCRIMINATION.
The Civil Service continues to be a great big joke. Only recently Lieutenant of Detectives, Glenn passed the test for promotion with flying colors. As a matter of fact he stood number three on the list for a Captaincy. Was he appointed? Why we should say not. Reason? A damning prejudice keeps this highly capable officer down. If he had happened to have been white, he would have long since been perhaps Chief of Police of this wonderful city.

Lawrence Johnson, who with his wife on Central Avenue, near 20th street were out walking; a rough neck it seems obstructed his path. In order to pass the obstrepous rough neck, he touched him slightly. He threatened Johnson, used vile language before Johnson's wife, Johnson knocked him down. The rough neck ran, it is said, to get a gun; he met his brother, his brother became infuriated also, they went to Johnson's house. They said they were going there to kill him. He pushed open Johnson's door (so the story goes) made a motion as if to draw his gun. Johnson did not intend to go that way if he could help it and in fear that he would lose his own life, fired, the rough neck fell mortally wounded and died.
This case comes up on next Tuesday before Judge Avery in the Superior Court. Hrris, the man who was slain, was a white man, Johnson was a black man. Does anybody for one moment think Johnson will have an equal go before the law? If you do you have another thought a-coming, for already propaganda is being used to stir up prejudice and race hatred in the minds of jurrors. Harris has a host of relatives and friends, they will swear to anything to hang Johnson. No one has come to the forefront to help this defenseless man, the one white witness who was fair enough to testify to the truth and this truth would have made Johnson free. But he cannot be found, therefore Johnson needs to fight with his back to the wall against great odds that the truth should assert itself despite those who would swear away his life. Attorney E. Burton Ceruti and Joseph W. Ford will represent Mr. Johnson and all that lawyers can do will be put forth by both these noted criminal lawyers.
NATURAL MORALITY.
"Honesty is the best policy," but he wi it is the best policy is no longer honest." M upon the meaning given to the term used. far cry from the practice of the "natural n taken in the above statement. And yet we believe that to be honest, factely natural. The apparent discrepancy ment and human con dust lies in the foot
"Honesty is the best policy," but he who is honest because it is the best policy is no longer honest." Maybe so. It depends upon the meaning given to the term used. At any rate, it is a far cry from the practice of the "natural man" to the position taken in the above statement.
And yet we believe that to be honest, truthful, etc., is perfectly natural. The apparent discrepancy between this statement and human conduct lies in the fact that honesty and other moral conditions are relative in the impression they make on the consciousness. A man may steal bread to keep himself from starving, and protest that he was not immoral. Indeed, a court has sometimes held that, in such a case, the act was illegal but not immoral. Hence, the relationship of an action must first be determined in order to make it appear moral, or immoral.
Personal interest stands high in the natural, untrained mind, and the conscience approves whatever will advance it. For this reason, lying, thieving, the exercise of brute force, and so on, are approved by a savage as a means to add to the individual welfare. The first upward tendency that serves as a check on this is loyalty to his family. He would not steal from one of them. Then follows rapidly loyalty to his clan, tribe, and nation. It may be observed, however, that it is his personal interest in these wider spheres of relationship that directs his action. Finally under divine training, comes his interest in his fellowman and he will no longer do anything that will be injurious to him.
Now, the morally untrained boy or girl who takes what is not his, or who tells an untruth, is no worse naturally, than the better trained one who will not do these things. A similar amount of training will not produce the same results in each of two children. But in each case, that amount of training which gives a like impression to each child, (other things being equal) will bring the same moral action. The point where personal interest receives a different outlook, cannot be located in a general way, hence the general necessity for individual attention.
Proceeding from the individual viewpoint, it is known that a child who will not, for instance, falsify for personal gain, will do so out of loyalty to his playmates. This is not an immoral but a moral action, as he sees it. Moreover, it is useless, as a rule, to try to impress upon him who has done this that it is wrong.

COMMENTS
The American Legion, composed of the men who fought, or who were drafted in the late World War, is meeting in San Francisco. Legionaries from all of the states in the Union are representing their different Posts. North as well as South. The writer has a very close acquaintance who officered at the head of a company of infantry, and was a participant in the thrilling offenses which led to the defeat of the German army. He introduced us to a "Buddle" who served with him; the "Buddle" halls from Alabama. During the course of a conversation the Alabaman commented on the difference in the treatment of the Negro here and in Alabama. When he was asked the reason why he said "The Negroes of my section are not refined; are uncutth." Then he was asked if it was not the fault of his particular section that ignorance and uncouthness prevailed. When he was shown the dissimilarity between the educational advantages given to the Negro in California and Alabama he readily acknowledged that the public facilities given the Negro for an education, even elementary, was sadly lacking. HE WAS A BROAD MINDED SOUTHERNER.
The lack of us taking advantage of the splendid opportunities for an education which will fit us for the battle of life, has often been commented up on in this column. It is a rare sight to see one of our boys or girls graduated beyond the Grammar grade—although parents may be fully able to give the student a more advanced schooling. We do not believe that the parent of today has lost the stimulus which led the parent, barely removed from thraldom, to sacrifice that their offspring might be given a chance to cope with the problems of life, rather we do lay the apathy to the offspring. Studiousness is an unknown quantity among nine tenths of our young men and women. The aping of "elite society" and the tendency to frivolity is the lure which is drawing the masses away from things which benefit.
A party of young folk were having a contest at tennis, and it was a beautiful sight to see with what grace and energy they entered into the spirit of the game. One could not but help notice their vigorous bodies; the brightness of the eye, and the grace of movement. Ah! Here is the foundation that will make of the race a people; a people who will overcome by sheer virility and mental capability the barriers which confront them. We pictured them bending over some intricate problem under the shaded light, or discussing some medium thru which they might serve their people or humanity, but alas! Instead, they the name of the Christian God. History is full of ancient attractions under its guise. Not many generations back one was not a "believer" unless he believed in infant damnation. It is a beautiful Idyll, the humanity of Jesus, and it is splendid to believe that God can soothe the bruised soul of humanity. The more that one solves the humaneness of the Nazar ene the nearer are we brought to Di vinity. "I will draw all men unto me love. Jesus was a great leader. Un selfish, fearless, without compromise for a principle. He has lead down the ages.

"REFLEX ACTION" is an expression used frequently in printed matter and lectures, but seldom made plain to most persons. Reflection is the mental digestion and thinking over of knowledge and judgments. When a man reflects upon a matter he is supposed to exert his best thoughts and judgments upon all of the real, obtainable facts. Reflection is, then, one of the chief human physiological activities. It is na rhimself, as a higher and reasoning animal, far removed from his blood brother, the ox. A "reflex action" on the other hand, is the extreme contradictory of reflection. It is a simple, swift and unconscious response of something alive to something. Using things co-ordinate and adapt themselves by unconscious or "reflex actions." Human kind is "what it is" because of the beautiful adaptations of our structures effected by the reflex activities entirely outside of all conscious knowledge.
WHAT REFLEX ACTIONS ARE.
Reflex movements in man and other animals may be illustrated by the kitchen cook who intends to serve frogs' legs as a dinner delicacy. The legs of the beheaded and about-to-be-cooked creature, when pinched will bend an draw up sharply. If the skin of the eheadless animal is moistened with lemon juice or other acid, the leg on the affected side will scrope off the offending agent, just as a dog scratches himself for fleas.
These actions are called "reflex" because the irritant upon the foot or the skin disturbs the senses. The impulse messages are flashed to the lower nerve, which spins cord, which switches them directly to the nerves, and then they make their exodus from the spinal cord to the appropriate muscles.
In a word, a reflex action is a beaten pathway, the shortest distance between two living points for the desired
planned to attend a dance and were discussing the newest dance steps. Laughter and mirth are youths own, and pleasure in the dance and the sports in their right, but we are not as yet far enough removed from previous conditions to subordinate all racial interests to them. There is a serious side.
It may be a jolt to the ego of someone who already believe that they are "Mosea", but when the emergency arises, according to history, the right man appears. We have them now similarly dressed and dressed up trying to exploit their fellowmen politically and industrially, but the leader is yet to come. Eventually he will come. If not from the ranks of the collegiate then, from some other source.
Longing eyes are cast toward the ranks of the budding generation. Will they meet our expectations, or will they fall us utterly? We know that the leader who is to pioneer us to a fuller citizenship has not yet arrived. He must be unselfish; working for the interest of the masses. He must be honest in his dealings with his fellowmen, allow no caolery or promise from others. He must learn from the path which he has chosen to trod. He must be without fear, and when the ends of justice are sought there should be no compromise. From Moses to Abe Lincoln and down, emergency has created the right man.
Two men were arguing. One of them, a preacher, was defending the divinity of Jesus. The other while acknowledging human leadership of the Nazarene doubted his divine origin. We wonder that if the world could be brought to a knowledge of the humanness of Jesus and soundness of the doctrines which he espoused for the betterment of humanity, and subordinate the theory of divinity as a non-essential in furthering the brotherhood of man; would not bring a closer perspective in the new knowledge of life. It is remembered that many barbarities were committed in the name of the Christian God. History is full of ancient attractives under its guise. Not many generations lack the power of the "believer" unless he believed in infant damnation. It is a beautiful Idyl, the humanity of Jesus, and it is splendid to believe that God can soothe the bruised soul of humanity. The more that one solves the humaneness of the Nazarene the nearer we brought to Divinity. "I will draw all men unto me" was uttered in the spirit of human love. Jesus was a great leader. Unselfish, fearless, without compromise for a principle. He has lead down the ages.

purpose. There is a definite end in view in reflex actions, despite the absence of consciousness. A reflex action appears swift and simple in its perfection. It is ready-made, inherited and originally complicated. It is an instinct.
SHORT PATHS TO SAFETY
Automatic winking of the eye is a reflex action. Whenever there is a slight irritation of the sense of contact, be it from air, wind, dirt or muscle strain in the eyelids, they flash into a "wink." The reflex actions of the beheaded frog have been frequently duplicated in victims of accidental injuries to the spinal cord at the neck, "broken neck" as it is termed.
To the uninitiated, such movements spell thought. Novelists are at times keen to play upon the credulity of those who would like to know "what executed criminal thinks." If he wigles his stores the instant after execution, they hail it as a message from beyond the grave. What consciousness is cannot be definitely affirmed or denied. What it is not, after its behavior or manifestations have had the major senses, muscles and the brain interpret it, is plainly apparent. Reflex actions can occur independently of the nerves and brain. They may sometimes respond on the instant to direct contact or even to the distant wave of some other substances.
This is notably true of materials sent through the blood channels. Thyroid substances, as well as the principles of many other textiles of animals, immediately bring into play somedefinite activity of man and other creatures, according to the kind and the amount of the material the points they reach. Evidently, "rexes" reach short paths through the machinery of life most quickly and accurately reaches the goal and scores a touchdown for health, wealth, conquests and happiness.
