It developed at the hearing that Toland was a fiend incarnate, that he tortured the poor woman nigh unto death before she shot him and to the minds of the injury she was amply justified in her act and hence the verdict. KILLINGS AMONG GROUP COMMON THINGS The shooting to death of Fred Ainsworth on the corner of McKinley Avenue and Austin Street on last Saturday night marks the half hozen of killings among our group within the last thirty days, and it is pointed out that something must be done to put a stop to this sort of pastime before it really becomes contagious. Woman The Cause The killing of Ainsworth was the sequel to his romance with a woman who had been known to carry his name, although it developed at the coroner's inquest that they had never been married, but had lived together as common law man and wife, so it is said. They became estranged.Ainsworth could not stay away from her, and on Saturday night appeared where she was, forcibly, it seems, entered her bed chamber, struck her. She followed and Joe Quinlan, who was in an adjoining room, came into the room and fired one shot which passed through Ainsworth's heart killing him instantly. Jury Holds Quentan For Murder Ordinarily the act of Quinlan would have been construed as chivalrous, but not so in this case, for, it appears, had blood previously existed between Ainsworth and Quinlan, and only a few days before a gun play had been made between them. It is said the fued came about by a shift of affection from Ainsworth by the woman in the case. This was of such a commanding force that the jury held the defendant, Joe Quinlan for murder to the Grand Jury. Quinlan will be defended by Attorney Hugh E. Maceth, and was represented at the coroner's jury by him. BRUTALLY SHOOTS DOWN HIS WIFE AND ESCAPES California Eagle and Other Race Papers Gave Him His Start That Negroes of the Pacific coast are beginning to come into their own, is evidenced by the recent recognition given them in some of the big eastern papers and magazines. A few years ago it was a rare thing to read in an eastern publication of prominent Negroes living west of Chicago. It seemed that every man or woman of the race worth mentioning lived either in Washington or New York City or Chicago. Once in a while something would be said about the Malones of St. Louis, which gave them their proper place of prominence among race folk. NOAH D. THOMPSON A year or so ago a big New York publication mentioned the name of a Los Angeles Negro, who, along with nine other nationally and internationally known Negroes, might have saved the Garvey movement had its leader known how to work with men of brains and power. The Messenger, The Crisis and several other eastern publications recently published articles from the pen of "far westerns" and otherwise spoke of their work and achievements. Comes now the current issue of the Dearborn Independent, a magazine published and owned by Henry Ford, with a very illuminating article on "The Jewish Attempt to Bolshevise the Negro". The article deals with "Manhattan's Red Propaganda Employed to Stir the Negro Workers of Harlem, New York", and suggests, among other things that: "Men like Wm. Stanley Braithwaite, poet, critic and anthropologist, of Boston; Dr Wm. A. Hinton, instructor in the Harvard Medical School; Noah D. Thompson, librarian of the Los Angeles Evening Express and Daniel Murray, librarian of Congress, be enabled to develop their genius regardless of gro race". "Briefly, says the writer, the fact that they belong to the Ne'ware this the case, colored men of the callibre of W. E. Burghardt Du Bois, a poet and a scholar of the highest water; Dr Wm. S. Scarborough, formerly president of Wilberforce University, one of the foremost Greek scholars in the country and now assistant economist in the United States Department of Agriculture; Prof. Alain Lacor Lodis, a Rhodes scholar, Prof. of philosophy of Howard University, one of the brightest minds of the Negro race; Charles A. Johnson, a sociologist, prominent author, author of brilliant writings; Bruce M. Duncan, Last issue readers no doubt aspered the article giving the account of the police department, and that without any warrant or other good reason they broke open the door of Dr. Nelson's office, searched same and departed. Now the doctor, when he learned of this diabolical act, got busy and went right after the officers for their unlawful act. In fact he planned a suit for $100,000.00. This act, however, proved to be unnecessary upon the police chief August Vollmer's addressing to him the accompanying letter, which is a fac simile of the document. This letter completely exhonorates Dr. Nelson, restores damage done, and restores to him all property loss, and thus none can say but that justice has been done. The doctor is to be congratulated on the course which he pursued in the premises and in the result attained. The act is a practical demonstration of the calibre of man that Dr. Nelson is, and that Chief Vollmer is a big man who sees to the fact that wrongs committed by the police department under his regime will be righted if possible. groves, America, and civilization would be enriched by it." Noah D. Thompson, of Los Angeles, whose photo is shown above, is the man who, with several others are making the world know that here on the Pacific coast, we have men and women who can hold their own among people of any racial group who do things worth while. Recently it was brought to our attention that Mr. Thompson, besides holding down the big job referred to in the magazine article, has been acting as assistant instructor of a class in Journalism in one of our big Universities. Asked how he got his start as a journalist, Mr. Thompson modestly replied: "By contributing news items free of charge to some of our race journals in Chicago; The Broad Ax, The Chicago Defender, The Appeal, The California Eagle, and several other papers whose editors were good enough to give me space and encouragement." We have here in Los Angeles and elsewhere, a number of educated young men and women who would like to become famous writers, but unlike Thompson, they always want to begin at the top, in other words, they think it beneath them to try to contribute readable articles to a race journal. No They want to begin at once to write editorials not knowing that most editorial writers of note got their experience by writing for some small town daily or weekly paper are reporters or marxaph printer's devil. This paper, as have many other progressive papers, has plenty of dick room for the eminent young man or woman who, like Mr. Thompson, is willing to give the best that is in them with learning to write articles that are worth pranking. There are many departments to an undergraduate publication where men and women of the same may find interesting materials. New York, December 21—Sharp declining in the number of lynchings in the United States during the year 1923, the figure being 26 as against 61 in 1922, was laid to the agitation for a federal anti-lynch law, and to the northward migration of Negroes, in a statement today by James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 69 Fifth Avenue, New York. Mississippi and Florida lead the list of lynching states with 5 mob murders each. Georgia is second with 4. Oklahoma third with 3. Arkansas and Texas have 2 each. Other states in which one lynching occurred are: Louisiana, Missouri and Virginia. Only 7 out of the 26 persons were charged with assault upon women, and in the case of one of the seven, the janitor of the University of Missouri, grave doubt was subsequently cast upon the guilt of the mob's victim. Other offences for which lynchings occurred include; mistaken identity, adding in escape, associating with white women being in an automobile accident, remaining in town where Negroes were not wanted, and frightening white children by walking harmlessly along a country road. Two of the victims of lynching mobs were white men. One colored woman was lynched in Pickens, Mississippi. "Two main causes brought about the decline in lynching in 1923," said Mr. Johnson. "First was the agitation on the floor of Congress, and throughout the country, for a federal anti-lynching bill, the measure introduced by Mr. Dyer passing the last House of Representatives by a vote of 230 to 119. The second main cause was the northward migration of Negroes by the hundreds of thousands. This has borne in on the South that lynching will have to be stopped if the best labor of the South can get for its plantations and industries is to be retained. Prospects for the enactment of the Dyer Anti-lynching Bill in the present Congress are excellent; in the light of President Coolidge's anti-lynching pronouncement in his message to Congress, it is to be hoped that in a very few years, the crime of lynching will have been completely wiped out in America." N.A.A.C.P. ACTIVE IN THREE SCASE Fights Extradition From New Jersey Prevents Booking of "Birth of a Nation", Wine, Civil Rights Case in Dee Maine. Three important cases have been fought lately by branches of the N ational Association for the Advancement of Colored People. One of them is an extradition case, one a protest against the showing of the "Birth of a Nation" Slay, both in New Jersey; and the third is a civil rights case war for a colored girl in Dee Maine. In EXTRADITION The extradition case was fought in Tennessee San Diego Peninsula, for which the state has a civil rights case war After conducting an examination of your premises on last Saturday night Captain C. I. Plummer and officers of the Vice Division are of the opinion that the anonymous information received by them to the effect that gambling and bootlegging was being conducted in your office was without any foundation of fact and no doubt sent for the purpose of inflicting an injury upon your reputation and general standing in the community. They found nothing in substantiation that violations of law were being committed on your premises. It is always a matter of regret when unscrupulous persons for spiteful and selfish reasons purposely convey false statements to us, careful to conceal their identity when doing so, and apparently for no other purpose than to jam the police up with some law abiding citizen. Their object is clearly to discredit both the citizen and the police and bring about a breach in the relationship that exists. I have given instructions that your property shall be repaired for any damage caused it during the visit of the police, and that you shall be reimbursed for any loss suffered at the same time. I trust that this action will assist in clearing up any misunderstanding that may have arisen out of the unfortunate affair. although Governor Silzer had said he would permit the man to be extradited to Georgia, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People stopped the extradition by a writ of habeas corpus. Klemmer Kaltsein and William D. Danbury, attorneys, appeared before Governor Silzer.

Next commissioned with N.A.A.C.P. and Bureau of Census. Mr. Nutt writes: "It is another victory for systematic and efficient organization."

His story follows: "On Sunday, August 12th, near my place of business, 2513 Central Ave., where I was engaged in the Real Estate and Brokerage business, I was in my automobile and was accosted by officers Green, Stevens and Broady, who had run up behind me, saying, "Who is Ford?" "I answered, "This is Ford." "Steven said: "I guess you know who we are, don't you Ford?" Ans. "No, I don't know who you are." Stevens: "We are officers. Come on, drive us down the street aways, we want to talk to you." Ford: "If you have me under arrest, let me close the doors of my business over there." Stevensa: "That's alright, we are just going down the street, you may be able to come back right away." "They then brought me to 12th and Central Ave., and from there to the Central Police Station, having not yet told what they wanted me for." "Arriving at the station they carried me into a small room and quizzed me. Coming out they told me my name was Frank Ford, and that they wanted me for killing a man in Birmingham, Ala." "Of course I knew the charge was preposterous, for I had never been in the State of Alabama, much less Birmingham, but my protests were to no avail. They ordered me locked up and no one was to see me or to talk to me." "I tried to talk to the jailer and to get in touch with somebody, and finally Officers Broady and Green came along. I asked if they were going to put me in jail and not give me a chance to get any assistance at all, and they said, certainly not, and sent me an attorney of their own choosing. "This attorney, LeRoy D. Barnett, however, agreed to go forward with proceedings against extradition, and nothing ever came of it. At least I was never called for such a hearing or given opportunity to prove that I could not be the man they wanted in Alabama." "After 18 days, the two Alabama officers arrived in the persons of District Attorney James G. Davis and Birmingham T. J. Harley of Birmingham, Alabama. These two officers, accompanied by Officer R. F. Green, met all in the Station in a law office. Process Server came up at this time requiring for R. F. Green and the other officers. They would not recognize who they were. I spoke and Officer Green told me it was not the truth," but I continued to tell them. FORUM PAYS TRIBUTE TO JOHN STEVEN McGROARTY PROMINENT REALTOR TO SPEAK ...The last Sunday of the ...Old ...Year was a real red-letter day at the Forum with a large crowd in attendance. Mr. McMurray, reader of Curent Topics was complimented for the selection of items of unusual interest, which were supplemented by an article from the L. A. Times Magazine of the pen of John Steven. McGroarty, ...relative ...to our ...people Measra, M. G. Stokes, Noah D. Thompson, T. A. Green and Editor Base gave glowing tribute to the genuine words of this noted writer, literary critic and humanitarian, who has ever dared to present our cause in terms of truth and righteousness when others would belittle and ridicule. Chairman of the Program Committee, Claudia McKinney, in keeping with his policy of advancement and spirit of our community along lines of business, industry and production, will address the address of Mr. L. R. R. gracious manager, Mr. H. E. Davis assisted by his corps of efficient waitresses, all delled up in dainty frocks of French design, being the creation of Milady's Shoppe on West Jefferson street of which Mrs. Sam Davis is proprietress. The Blue Room was especially arranged for the ladies. It was of a delicate shade, further beautified by wall roses holding a profusion of orchids, tulips and lilacs. The chandeliers, of bowl design, were colored blossoms entwined with smillax. The dainty tables are of white enamel and the chairs of mahogany. The design of the floor covering had been especially chosen for this room. Fruits and flowers made artistic center pieces and art lamps of kings blue with shades of fantastic shapes completed the setting. Prominent among those noted here were Mr. W. H. Terry, Dr. and Mrs. Jack Smitherman, Mr. Rawles and Mrs. Prescott as well as many others being noted. The dining room was finished in old rose and gold and presented a beautiful picture. Here, too, was an abundance of tulips and chrysanthemums. The chandeliers were tastefully ornamented with pastel shaded flowers and sand colored draperies. The lamp shades were of old rose and gold. The initial appearance of the Quality Four proved quite as much of an attraction as did the renowned William Mitchell and his hevy of dancing girls in "Plantation Reyne." The vocal selections by Mr. Dewey Washington won rounds of applause quite as much as the efforts of Mr. Malcolm Patton, os Angeles' own, who was at his best. The dancing was very much enjoyed by all. A sumptuous dinner was served, and, of course, this was not a losing card, when we take into consideration that many of the guests were pleased well enough to remain for breakfast. Among the many who were entertained in the party were: Dr. and Mrs. Engene Nelson; Mr. and Mrs. Felix Waugh; Mr. and Mrs. Kills Warren; Dr. Pearl; Att. W. O. Tyler; Messrs. Leornard · Harris, Rainb Porter, S. J. King, J. W. King, F. F. Hunter and William Day. A specially arranged program of the Quality Four, starring Miss Carolyn Snowden will be held Saturday and Sunday at Luncheon and Dinner. These meals are table'd hote or a la carte at popular places. Go and see for yourself. simple preparation as a stodium of real values than their relation to those Americans, the message he will bring Sunday. January 31 will present an annual interest to our people and an occasion addition is expected. both in a business and a social way. One had only to be present at Gamut Club, December 27th to realize this. The Club had been decorated for the occasion by the well known interior decorator, Mr. Porter. While the decorations were admired by all, few realized the care, thought and expense that had been united to creat the delightful Puritan age effect that blended so perfectly with the numerous wonderful gowns. The whole creating a riot of color at once striking and harmonious. Among some of the gowns noticed was that of Mrs. Hattye Bruce who is the mother of the club being a pioneer resident of Colorado before coming to California some years ago. Her gown was of white crepe satin and narola de chine and pearl trimming. Another very handsome gown was that worn by Mrs. Raymond Clarke. It was made entirely of imported silver brocade en train. Miss Lue Williams wore a heavy jet gown with a side train of orange tulle. Mrs. Anna Smithia's gown was of shell pink taffeta covered by silver lace. Mrs. Arthur Maloney wore a beaded gown of chinese blue. Mrs. Marcia Austin wore lavender georgette over yellow heavily beaded. Mrs. Carolyn Sivers wore white pan velvet and rose chiffon. Mrs. L. D. Barnette wore coral velvet. Mrs. H. Allen's gown was of tanzerine faille teffeta and silver lace. Mrs. F. M. Butler wore a gown of white iridescent over pink and blue tulle. Mrs. P. E. Boyd wore apricot satin de chine trimmed in pearls and rhine stones. Mrs. N. J. Marshall wore a handsome gown of nile green lace. Mrs. Smallwood was stunning in a cloth of gold gown. Mrs. C. Pritchette wore orchid crepe trimmed in French flowers. Mrs. G. Stewart was charming in white Duchess face over nude chiffon. Mrs. Gran Nelson was beautiful in her gown of Rhine and amothered gray. Mrs. Budge Dickey wore a French model of silver cloth lade green velvet and seal skin. Mrs. J. Howard wore a quaint gown of peach colored taffeta and old silver. Mrs. Paul Williams wore a beaded gown of white and London fog gray. Mrs. D. M. Johnson wore a gown of orange gri de longue and crystals. Mrs. Laura Bragg was lovely in a gown of turquise blue chiffon over satin with rhinestone and silver trimming. Mrs. D. A. Price wore King's blue and silver. Mrs. Davidson wore satin chiffon over ocean blue. Mrs. Ruby Watson wore bleit chiffon over rhinestone. Mrs. Lola Williams wore California and orchid georgette beaded in colors. Mrs. Chas. West was headsome in a gown of silver and amothered blue brocade. There were many more lovely gown but it would be impossible to describe them all. The ball was a EAGLE EDITOR SPEAKS A splendid program was rendered by the chorus, Mrs. C. A. Bass, Managing Editor of The California Eagle, delivered the Emancipation Address, and from the enthusiastic manner in which her remarks were received, the people were well plased. The speaker deviated from the time worn path of Emancipation orators and took up the question of Emancipation from the weights which hold down the growth of the race in this day and time, paying a glowing tribute to the mothers and fathers who came up from slavery and who had sriven to give their children the advantages which they enjoy today. She exhorted these sons and daughters to make the best use of their opportunity and to bring forth a greater emancipation than that which was brought forth in 1863. The meeting was held under the auspices of the Ministers' Alliance of Pasadena, and was a most successful and notable occasion. Mrs. Ida Ford was mistress of ceremonies, Miss Hunter delivered "Lincoln's Gettysburg Address". city. The Mt. Zion Baptist Church in particular, and the Baptists in general, have a cause for great rejoicing. For in the coming of Dr. Stokes into our midst, we have a ripe scholar, an experienced leader in the practice and polity of the church such as in but few others. Dr. Stokes has been honored with every office in the gift of the National Baptist Convention. He is now the treasurer, and has been for a quarter of a century. Though a sage-genarian, he is the youngest, as well as the noblest Roman of them all. Dr. Stokes was a life-long friend of Dr. Booker T. Washington, and was his private counselor in critical times while building up the great Tuskegee Institute. Major Robert Russa Moton, head of Tuskegee, recognized the wisdom of Dr. Stokes, and had him elected to the board of trustees of the school. Dr. Stokes leaves one of the greatest churches in the South. Its membership is more than 5,000. Most of whom he added while in the pastorate of forty years. The Doctor is said to be one of the few Negro ministers who are wealthy. This is stating it mildly. Much time has been spent on two separate occasions in Palestine, when he explored the land made sacred by the life and death of Jesus Christ. These trips have added veneration, which is akin to the prophets. Through spending most of the time in the South among the prejudiced whites, still that unconquerable spirit and indomitable will have never been swerved from the highest interest of the people whom he served and successfully led, and this has endeared him to both races.

C. Richardson last Sunday afternoon at the Birch St. Church Church. Mr. Washington and comes to us from Seattle has made in all the larger theaters on this week and is accolied as one of the premier soloists of the West. The capacity audience received all numbers enthusiasm but most of all they seemed to enjoy the Prologue from "Pagliacci" rendered in Italian, second only to this number was a group of Spirituals, "Deep River," "Bye and Bye," and "Go Down Moses." Mr. Washington was assisted by Miss Leonida Simmons, Soprano, of the College of Music, U. S. C. Miss Simmons has a wonderful range and maintains excellent control, both qualities were exhibited to perfection in Cook's "Swing Along." Mr. Washington was accompanied by Miss Nalda McCallough, also of U. S. C. In many ways the affair was one of the most unique ever staged in this city giving ample proof that our people will support the youth in his attempts to reach the heights; just before the holidays a young woman was dismissed from her classes at the University of California, Southern Branch, for delinquency in fees; during the holidays the young men of Kappa Alpha Psi learned of it and set to work to raise funds to put her back and to enable her to stay; only enough was raised for the former. Mr. Washington hearing of what these young men were trying to do and feeling the need of supporting such deeds volunteered his fullest support and his services in carrying out the task undertaken. Feeling that the job was more than a few students could handle unaided they accepted the kindness of Mrs. Richardson who obly managed the Recital and told those assembled of the purpose of the affair. The result was most gratifying, one hundred dollars and forty-seven cents were laid on the table in less than five minutes, all of which has since been turned over to the young woman for the paranormal of her education. There is no question but the people of Los Angeles are behind her young people, th people of our race are awakening to the potential possibilities in the coming generation. Great things can be expected of such a community or race. Upsilon Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi wishes to thank those who helped us so nobly in our recent effort. We are pleased to note the confidence placed in us by the people of Los Angeles. We wish especially to thank Mr. Washington who by his generosity made the affair possible; we wish to thank Mrs. Richardson whose untiring efforts and efficient management were responsible for its success; we wish to thank Miss McCallough and Miss Simmons, also Miss Simmons' companion; we wish to thank the Birch St. Christian Church for the use of their one. We tank all of those who contributed. There were many who contributed Five Dollars, we failed to get the names of all of these, a few were: Dr. Nelson, Dr. Hudson, "The California Eagle," "The New Are Dispatch," theUniform Hank K. of P., and our Grecian brothers, Alpha Phi Alpha of U. S. C. On the evening of Sunday, January 20th, we will have the President of our University with us at the Independent Church. All are invited to hear this wonderful speaker. We thank you again and promise we will not violate the confidence you have put in us. (Signed) WENDELL, P. GLADDEN LEON WHITAKER I. B. P. O. E. NEWS Golden West Lodge, I.B.P.O. of E. of W. No. 26, Will Give Grand Pageant and Charity Bazaar May 3-13. The Local Elks Lodge, Golden West No. 83, will stage in this city May 3 in 18th inclusive, the most marvelous and gigantic Pageant and charity Bazaar which has ever been attempted by members of our group on the Pacific Coast. In desailing splendor and gorgeous proportions as only the "Elks" can, the Pageant will mark a new epoch in the amusement annals of this section. The Elk Lodge is itself the fastest growing and the largest single fraternal order in the entire western country, numbering well over one thousand members. Golden West Lodge has earned a reputation second to no other fraternal body for doing things. All of its entertainments have been designed for their huge success, the members thereof pull together to make it so. They have not been content to simply succeed as a leader, the organization is ambitious and has brought a most splendid home of both men and Central Avenue, on this day the process to build the Elk Lodge will start of the Midsummer. The local pageant and charity haven a passage one of the marked ones of Old Testament revelation. Here we have the valley of dry bones. The application of the vision to the spiritual life of the Soul and the church. There is something worse than the death of a nation, there is something worse than the death of a body, it is the Spiritual Death of those who lie sunk in trespasses and sins. The condition of human souls is like the bones in the valley of vision, very many and very dry. There is no human probability of restoration or life, but there is hope in God, and is resurrection of life. GEORGE W. BRIGHT, Ex-Lient. L. A. F. D. Wood Wilson premier political worker is out early to keep from being late and busy at the work on the Coolidge end. Charlie Oliver, also known far and near as a worker in the political field is a Coolidge booster. In the last contest with Johnson and Moore Charlie occupied a front seat in the Johnson band wagon. The Lincoln League has begun its organization throughout the country, and will pull off the greatest political meeting ever held by colored republicans in Chicago on Lincoln's birthday. # Governor Friend Richardson comes up to the second year of his administration, and a stormy time has been his portion; but he holds his own. The only short coming to our mind is his failure to recognize all elements as a real governor surely and truly for all of the people. Frank H. Mouser, with assemblyman Pedrotti as a runner up, are the ones so far mentioned who will contest for the colored senatorship at next fall's primaries. Nine persons out of every ten who come into my office write or call me by phone for appointment; greet me with the six following words: My Friend Recommended You to Me, and I appreciate those words beyond expression, they mean more to me than all the gold in the world; for those words show the confidence that reputable citizens have in me and in my business methods. They more than repay me for the effort and hard work that I put forth to have my clients money and worry. I have striven to make a friend out of everyone whom I have had any business dealings with, and those words assure me that I have succeeded. There is not enough money in the whole world to tempt me, or cause me to betray the confidence reposed in me by my clients and I believe that everyone of my clients has sent his or her friend to me. To those seeking homes, or other property, may I serve you?

Stokes, Peerless Pulpiteer, Matchless Orator, and for forty years the untrammeled leader of the race, comes to the pastorate of the Mt. Zion Missionary Baptist Church, this city. The Mt. Zion Baptist Church in particular, and the Baptists in general, have a cause for great rejoicing. For in the coming of Dr. Stokes into our midst, we have a ripe scholar, an experienced leader in the practice and polity of the church such as in but few others. Dr. Stokes has been honored with every office in the gift of the National Baptist Convention. He is now the treasurer, and has been for a quarter of a century. Though a sexogenarian, he is the youngest, as well as the noblest Roman of them all. Dr. Stokes was a life-long friend of Dr. Booker T.-Washington, and was his private counselor in critical times, while building up the great Tuskegee Institute. Major Robert Russa Moton, head of Tuskegee, recognized the wisdom of Dr. Stokes, and had him elected to the board of trustees of the school. Dr. Stokes leaves one of the greatest churches in the South. Its membership is more than 5,000. Most of whom he added while in the pastorate or forty years. The Doctor is said to be one of the few Negro ministers who are wealthy. This is stating it mildly. Much time has been spent on two separate occasions in Palestine, when he explored the land made sacred by the life and death of Jesus Christ. These trips have added vegetation, which is seen to the graphets. Through spending most of his time in the South among the prejaculated whites, still that uncongenial spirit and mountain will have never been ignored from the highest interest of Room for rent: Furigished or unfurnished. 1325 Central Avenue.

GOOD GRADE GLOBE, Pt.....95c FIRST CHARITY BENEFIT. The First Annual Charity Benefit given by the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, of the University of California at Los Angeles, or the 15th inst., was an unqualified success socially and financially. The Benefit was in the form of a box social at the home of Miss Marion Robinson. Through the kindly cooperation of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority of the University of Southern California, a large number of attractive boxes were sold. Each box was sold at a graffying price due to the generous and lively bidding of members of the Kappa Alpha Psi, the Omega Phi Psi, and the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternities with M. Sumner Thompson acting as auctioneer. The Sorority was able to provide Christmas dinners and gifts for four needy families including fifteen children. Thus these young ladies are striving to carry out the high ideals of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority. John E. Milholland, a prominent Republican, and one of the oldest members of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, has written a letter to John T. Adams, Republican National Chairman, inquiring if the Republican Party intends to commit suicide. Mr. Milholland gives as the reason for his question, the Republican Party's disregard of the Negro voters. "The Negro voters of this country," says Mr. Milholland in his open letter, "cannot be corrued as formerly, by their time leaders." The Republican Party continues Mr. Milholland, "has pledged itself for forty years to right the wrong of disfranchisement in the South, but it has, even cut down the Democratic representation in Congress and in the Electoral College, as commanded by the Constitution." The Negroes, asserts Mr. Milholland, "will follow the Republican Party in blind faith as their fathers have done and if they are going to get anything out of the South they realize that they must do so through their own efforts. Their own efforts lead them t otake the obvious way, that is, to cross the border line to the North where there is plenty of work, their wages paid in good cash, and very little lynching or bad treatment to worry about." ST. LOUIS ARGUS AND A.B.B. EN. DORSE N.A.A.C.P. UNITED FRONT APPEAL Endorsement of the appeal of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, for a united front of all organizations in the movement for the release of the Houston martyr, has come from the St. Louis Argus, and the African Blood Brotherhood. The St. Louis Argus said editorially in the issue of December 14: WANT UNIFIED ACTION The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, with headquarters at New York, has written the Equal Rights League of Boston, asking for "United Action" in our effort to liberate the men of the Twenty-fourth Infantry, now imprisoned at Leavenworth, Kansas. We quite agree with the N.A.A.C.P. in this effort for a united front in this case. The patriotic and justice loving people of the petitions here and there, sent to the White House will not be near so effective as the great mass of petitions presented at one time. Just think for a moment: the power, influence, weight and the moral effect that one hundred thousand signatures in regular petition form would have on any case. So we see the reason for a united effort on the part of those who are earnest seeking the release of the boys of the 24th infantry. WANTED!

This is the Vite Commercial Council in those who enlist in the Drifting into the city of Los Angeles every day from all sections of our country, are those who have read and been told of the beauties thereof; but on arriving here they will soon discover that the streets are not lined with gold. However, if those who know the soil would cast their optics about them and seek the land which the law has decreed that the Japanese people cannot lease, rent or buy on which to produce the vegetables required for this wonder city, they would, without the shadow of a doubt obtain more gold than they have ever dreamed of before. We, therefore, along with the acceleration for more business concerns, and a strong support for such firms, also urge that more attention be given to the question of production from the soil, believing that by right, the Negro farmer is the natural successor to the Japanese, as the truck garden king of the land.

This is the winning spirit, and on this platform the Commercial Council is truly filling the niche carved out for those who enlist in the march of progress. ECOGNITION TO ALL GROUPS The big question at the primer Senator Johnson, the two fisted figation to the Republican National shall be named by those who have political advancement. There is no deter at home is up against the bigg nation at the primaries in M the two fisted fighter, w the national Convention nose who have heretofo There is no denying the against the biggest fight The big question at the primaries in May will be whether Senator Johnson, the two fisted fighter, will name the delegation to the Republican National Convention, or whether it shall be named by those who have heretofore opposed his political advancement. There is no denying the fact that the Senator at home is up against the biggest fight in his political career, and as the time for the primaries advances, the battle line will become more and more clearly defined. At this stage of the game there is every indication that the contest will be fought to a close finish, and in all probability the Colored vote will be the deciding factor in the contest. This being so, it would not be unreasonable, and would be only fair and just that on the Republican delegation from this state, along with all other groups, the Colored Republicans should have recognition. And to both Senator Johnson's manager and those who will espouse the cause to President Coolidge, the Soaring Eagle would suggest that a member of this group be placed upon the ballot as a delegate to the National Convention. SHY ON REPRESENTATION RECOGNITION The question of representation in th ebody politic of this great state for all people, is one which should, and must be met. For if some semblance of a square deal is not given to our group, somebody is going to wake up to the fact that they will be missing when most needed. The Negro vote in this County and State has raked the chestnuts from the fire on divers occasions for both men and measures, and ingratitude has been the reward. Governor Stevens was an example. And now where is he? Governor Richardson benefited when they turned on Stevens. He has so far failed of any signs of appreciation. Numerous minor officers, congressmen, and U. S. senators have been lifted up by this support, and yet recognition or representation is an unknown quantity. The time, we verily believe, has arrived to fight for both recognition and representation. DISFRANCHISEMENT IN THE "SOLID SOUTH" Alabama recently enacted a law which prohibits any American citizen eligible for the Presidency from seeking support in Alabama for Presidential nomination unless he be a citizen of that State. Alabama's action is the logical outgrowth of the system of enfranchisement of American citizens which prevails in every state of the Democratic "Solid South", in violation of the United State Constitution and in defiance of the principles of representative government. This constitutes the most malignant cancer upon the American body politic today. B. began shortly after the southern states were re-admit- FILLING A NICHE southern states. Now the malignant forces which it turned loose threaten to turn upon the Democratic party itself. Having used the weapon of disfranchisement so successfully upon southern Republicans, both white and black, Alabama Democrats now employ it to bludgeon northern Democratic aspirants for the presidential nomination. Were the evils of this southern practice of disfranchisement confined to the southern states and visited only upon the heads of the Democratic party, the rest of the country would not be necessarily concerned, but such is not the case. The South claims and obtains representation in the United States House of Representatives on the basis of its Negro and white Republican population. But having used these for a basis of obtaining seats in the House of Representatives, southern Democracy proceeds to refuse its Negro and white Republican citizens the right to go to the polls and vote for representatives in Congress. Eighty members of the House of Representatives from the "Solid South" are holding their seats because by "shot-gun" policy and by dishonest and fraudulent elections the exercise of citizenship of a majority of their communities is prohibited. It is a plain statement of a disreputable fact that there has not been an honest, free election in the solid Democratic South for a quarter of a century. But the evil extends higher and further. A state's vote in the electoral college is based upon its representation in both branches of Congress. The "Solid South" casts 114 electoral votes in every presidential election. Everybody knows that these votes are sure to be cast for the Democratic nominee regardless of who he is or for what he stands. Everybody knows this is true because honest elections and the free exercise of the franchise is impossible in any of the "Solid South" states. Jesus said to the man, "Keep the commandments". Well, according to his idea, he had done that. He was willing to acknowledge. He was a decent sort. "If that's it, I'm all right I have done all that from my youth up". Here was a man like Paul, "In the righteousness which is in the law blameless", Phil. 3. The Republican party starts into every presidential campaign with a handicap of 114 votes to overcome before it can "begin even" with the Democratic party in a contest for the Presidency. There are certain states in the North which are battle grounds for every presidential campaign. If the Republicans, after an intensive fight, succeed in carrying New York, Indiana, New Jersey, Ohio, Nebraska and West Virginia they have succeeded merely in carrying enough states to balance the 114 electoral votes from the "Solid South" and they must then go out and beat the Democratic party in the remaining northern states. And he really was a fine fellow. Jesus lookt at him and loved him; found somethings especially attractive in him. They were under the law. Jesus must give an answer suitable to those under the law. Yet the Master knew just where his fatal fault was. Morally, legally, the man was all right. Spiritually, he was lost. He loved himself; he loved his money, he loved his property. "What lack have I yet"? The Master will tell you, friend, never fear. Or, to put it another way: Democratic disfranchisement of Republican voters gives to the "Solid South" in every presidential election, without any contest whatever, a sufficient number of electoral votes to wipe out the electoral votes of the Republican states of Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Maine, Illinois, Iowa and Kansas. The answer Jesus gave was one that required faith, hope, love. The Democratic "Solid South" attempts to justify its defiance of the Constitution, its disfranchisement of American citizens, its undermining of representative government, its pollution of elections, upon the ground that its action is necessary in order to have a "white man's government": If that be true then it should be limited in its representation in the House of Representatives and in the electoral college to the number of white men in the South who govern. That would give the South a "white man's government" in exact proportion to the white man's government in the rest of the country. Righteousness cannot come by the law. It is of faith. Read carefully the book of Galatians, and you will see. It required only training and will power to keep the law. Self respect alone will promote and sustain that decent living required by the letter of the law. But it takes faith and love. Faith in God and love for man, AND love for God to sell what he has and give to the poor, then follow Jesus. The love of money, is the root of all evil. Covetousness is idolatry. One may keep the letter of the law, (II Cor. 3) or imagine he keeps it, and not love God at all. We knew a man who would not work Saturdays. That was easy. The trouble was that he would work very little any day. He imagined himself keeping the law. The letter of the commandments said, "Six days then shall it labor." He lay around and didn't labor at all. Ah, when Jesus says: "Keep the commandments" it means more than it seemeth. There is no selfish congratulation in the righteousness of God. It means a life of faith, o flove, of self denial. "Give alms of such things as ye have, and behold all things are clean unto you. We are no longer under the law, but under grace (Rom. 6); but grace takes all that we have and gives us all God has, Luke 14, 1 Cor. 3. Faith The Answer The answer to the young man's question was faith. He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life. John 3:36. "This is the work the Father would have you do* * * * believe on Him, whom He hath sent". John 6. "He that believeth on Me he he were dead yet shall he live, and whosoever liveth and believeth on Me shall never die" John 11. Faith purifies the heart, sanctifies the soul, renews the spirit, compels obedience. The obedience of the letter comes from self righteousness, a thing abhorred of God because unclean. The obedience of faith is spiritual in its origin. Greet 1924 with faith in your heart, and the great question is answered to you. You have eternal life. There can no evil come to you, for all things work together for good. Amex.

MARY MAY LIFE'S RUGGED WAY: As you journey long life's rugged way Toward the coveted goal of success, Forget not your struggling brother each day; Soothe his brow and his wallings suppress. Forever cheer the disconsolate soul By little acts of kindness and song; Then greater will be your strides to the goal. MAKE YOUR HOME HAPPY THRU BEING PLEASANT What does home mean to you? Is it a place you abhor and in which you find no pleasure, or is it a source of comfort and joy. Home, like life, is what you make it. If you continually find fault, speak harmless and unfriendly to members of the family, and go about nursing a grouch, your conception of home is not likely to be pleasing. Do you spend most of your time at home? There is no better place to spend it if you know how Numerous books and magazines, and countless treasures are ever at hand to arrest your attention. And if you are musically inclined you may find entertainment and amusement right at home. If you are not an instrumentallist, someone else in the family may be bale to satisfy your desire. Seldom do we find those who neither play nor sing nor try to. But if you fall in the latter class, and are fortunate enough to have a phonograph, you should not worry. Great singers accompanied by famous artists will sing for you. Also rag melodies and jazz strains sung by vaudeville stars may be heard. Help make your home home-like and pleasant. Don't give way to unhappy thoughts. It is up to you to make your home more cheerful. Make it a sacred place of rest and peace; make it a place of kindness and love, and you will never get beyond the beautiful memories and the warming influence of it. Humble, though home may be, it is not merely a construction of four walls, but a source of satisfaction and joy. Home is a place of safety from trouble; a place of repose and security in time of storms. Make it so! BE THOROUGH IN SCHOOL AND COLLEGE Be thorough! Don't go through school and college contented with having learned only a smattering of your subject. Learn all you can. There are thousands out in the great busy world who are literally thristing for knowledge; tolling day and night to get an education. Most of these constitute the working class. But there is no excuse for you. You must make good. Grand every detail. The thorough training of the American Army was one of the many things which led to his success. A well-balanced and well-trained football team is one whose members lay great stress on thorongness. 0——00——0 OUT OF THE WEST Out into the blueness of the night I went My arms outstretched and face uplifted to the sky; Neath the blackened sky I prayed—my spirit rent With grief and pain until the dawn of day drew nigh. One from the blackness of the night of war; Alone and unfortunate to face the world sudden; Out from the darkness of despair with mourn; also— And hard to take my place—along with other men. FREEDOM When you grow weary of attending the theatres there are other places of amusement and rest. Among these are th city parks. Now that the winter days are over, and the summer is at hand, there is a longing in every heart to be out in the open where there is plenty of fresh air and beautiful scenery. Upon arriving at many of the larger parks, one's attention is immediately attracted by moving lakes, endless lawns, nodding trees and whirling merry-go-rounds. How restful it is to watch the hippies on the surface of the lake as you lie upon the lawn. Noisy children crowded into boats glide by. Here and there out on the lake a slipping canoe guided by careful hands, goes silently by; except for the strumming of a ukelele, or the soft chatting of the lovers. Then, when this scene becomes monotonous, you look about you, oh, just instinctively. You see the cars of the "Scenic Railway," of "The Race Thru The Clouds," filled with yelling women and children, cheering, as they "loop the loop." Or, perhaps, the varied colors of flowers outlined on the beautiful green of the lawns, will awaken your sense of beauty and love of nature. You wander around the park noting the trees and ferns. Sometimes you stop only to listen to the band concert or visit the museum and other places of amusement. In this way you forget your troubles and find peace and contentment. Visit the city parks for amusement, rest, and scenery. TEAM WORK TEAMWORK SHOULD BE WATCH-WORD THROUGHOUT LIFE Team-work is the watchword! Everybody pushing and pulling together for all they are worth to a definite end. No matter how strong the team may be, if the team-mates do not co-operate, their efforts will be in vain. Each individual has a certain work to do and only through the combined effort of all will there be success. Consider the community as a great organization and the citizens as team-mates. Now this great team has high ideals and aims, and a definite goal toward which it is working. The citizen—the team-mate—must do his part. There must be team-work. He must take a part in civic activities, support worthy organizations, care properly for his home, and take interest in every movement for the good of all. We are team-mates in life. There is a special work for everyone of us to do. We cannot afford to sit idly by while other team-mates grind out their lives for the sake of humanity. We must strive with them to eliminate petty grievances and prejudices. We must all work for definite purposes. Team-work is the watchword! Let us keep it before us. SOUNDS AND MELODIES ARE VARIED AND MYSTERIOUS Have you heard the master violinist render his favorite piece of music? Have you listened with amazement to the thundering, roaring, and ever inspiring tones of the great pipe organ? There are sounds of many kinds that come into our daily life, but first, let us see just what makes sound and get a clear conception of what it is. Sound as usually understood, is a vibration or jar of the atmosphere which sets in motion an inner membrane of the ear and causes a sensation to pass along the auditory nerves to the brain. All sound originates in a quick, short movement of some sounding body, as a piano string, the lip of a bell, the vibrations of the vocal cords, the fluttering of a leaf, to sum up, any material substance capable of conveying a far to the air. Have you heard a mother sob and sigh? Have you heard a child's pitiful cry? The rumbling of a passenger train, and the whizzing of autos, and the noise, of traffic are not uncommon to go. All these sounds, and many more have become a part of our existence. Sound may be conveved by gases, liquids, or solids. Liquids and elastic substances like wood are better converters. By: Mademoiselle Dorothy Armatenga Quite chic indeed are the pajamas with their coquettish little bolero jackets, while some are made of colored tussor in Russian style, with high collars and side fastening. The very latest type of the envelope has almost the whole upper part of tulle and bottom of crepe de chine; the crepe making very rich appliques on the tulle foundation. A Knitted suit in allover jacquard pattern, was worn at the races recently. Riding habits are expected to be seriously rivaled this spring by odd breeches of silk, linen, housepun or checked woolens with the solid color cont. Lace fouces and a deep lace bertha are passed over chiffon in a characteristic silhouette, of the boutant type narrow ribbons of contrasting color mark the joining of lace and chiffon. The Chinese green crepe satin robe, with plain, tight bodice and long, tightly fitting sleeves, ending in a point over the hand. Over the tight skirt fall a good many smart daytime coats or 50 inches in length. Paris universally endorses shorter skirts for fall. This does not mean that extremely short skirts are worn, but merely that a smart length just above the ankle is approved. Paris alternates attention between black and navy blue for street wear, with navy blue proving more popular than it has been for years. Simplicity of style without any drastic change in silhouette is the basis of the fall mode. Lingerie gowns is the latest word from Paris. They are being adopted for afternoon wear. Volles, face and batistes dominate the materials used in these gowns. Velvet slippers will be the next in turn. They will appear as soon as the rage for colored kid footwear has ceased. Among the unique selections of the moment are dresses and wraps made of Persian prints and trimmed with caracul or monkey for. With these are worn draped turbans with narrow edges of matching fur and Egyptian ornaments at the front. Flats and knee tucks as well as taggoting. ornament graduation frocks. White volle is shown embroidered by hand in French knots. The Adelphic Club is presenting to the public an All-Star Recital Mr. Wm. T. Wilkins well known L. A. musician and composer has promised to play some of his original compositions nd by special request he will play his "Path of Destiny" which has received high commendation from some of America's best critics. Miss Mary Earl a local organist will preside at the Organ. Mr. Elvey Lively, Baritone, who has studied here and in the East will sing. Mr. Arvant Benjamin, Cornetist, another local musician will play. Mrs. Mozelle Te Outley, elocutionist, will read the best there is in dialect work. We are asking our friends to come out and make this first recital of the season a success. Tuesday evening, June 19th at the 1st A. M. E. Church, 8th and Towne Avenue. alternate condensation and rarifications. In general, according to another well established rule, the intensity of sound depends on the density of the medium through which the sound is transmitted. A sound wave is turned back or reflected when it strikes against another body such as a building, cliff, or wooded hillside, or even a cloud. The turning wave is called an echo. Among the many peculiarities of sound are the whispering galleries. Probably the most famous is that of the dome of St. Paul's, London. Whispering galleries are so constructed that whispers from certain points are plainly heard at another point and at a great distance. These buildings have curved walls or domes. Sound waves set in motion from a certain point near one surface at the curved wall are reflected and caught at a point having the same relative position to the second wall. In most of our large theaters the audience is amused at the wonderful effect of the music of combined instrumentation of so many types. Musical notes vary in pitch from about thirty to four thousand complete vibrations per sound, though the average bar can recognize as notes, sounds making from sixteen to thirty thousand and complete vibrations per second. It is said that a great Italian singer, rendering a solo in a cathedral, reached a note that was a oghigh, that it caused one of the window panes to vibrate in sympathy and finally break into pieces. The human voice is the most wonderful of all musical instruments. Music is produced by a pair of membranes on each side of the throat, called vocal chords, and also by the vibration of the tongue and lips. Changing the muscular tension on the vocal chords changes the pitch of notes and changing the shape of the mouth and the overtones and the overall tone of the voice. WESTERN FEDERATION OF TENNIS CLUBS FORCED TO CALL OFF FRISCO TOURNEY (By: Wm. Mells Watson) (1555 Court St. Drexel 3742) Yea dear readers 'tis sad but true that a huge monkey wrench about the proportions of Bill Dunn's left shoe has been chucked into the gear case of the Federation's "On To Frisco" machinery which necessitated the calling of a special meeting at President Edward Carlisle plewam last Tuesday night, and after letters, telegrams and conditions were thoroughly battled over the heart-skinned body could do nothing but vote unanimously to call off the second Pacific Coast Tennis Championship tournament, scheduled for San Francisco July 4 to 7. 1923. Too much credit can't possible be showered on the pretty head of that wonderful little president of the Oakland Club, Miss Victoria Grace Shorey who as chairman of the tournament committee has worked so faithfully and almost single-handed for months to bring about the affair successfully and had practically completed every detail in arrangements when now we find it impossible to hold the thing and all her labor and efforts come to naught—it's really appalling not to mention the keen disappointment felt by hundreds of our supporters and well wishers. Erma Tatum in Hospital Mrs. Erma Tatum, fifth vice-president of the Federation and adored wife of William Tatum corresponding secretary of the Fed became so ill last Tuesday that she was asked to the hospital in operation for psychiatric. Every one of our望望 hopes for this lovely young woman's speedy recovery, and let's not fall to keep in touch with her condition daily by visits and by phone. Eddie's Kar The thriving city of Castalic, California consisting of four farm houses, a service station, many cats, dogs, cattle, sheep, horses and cayotes is situated 46 miles up on the Ridge Route 60 Frisco. Amid the surroundings for several years has lived with his family of seven the fine looking, long, lean, powerfully built, good natured and jovial Mr. Benjamin Franklin Kay, brother of our prey's sweet wife, Mrs. Nellie Kay Carlisle, Uncle Ben is Mayor, Councilman, Sheriff, District Attorney, Chief of Police and Dog Catcher of Castalic and owns a wonderful ranch there, and now that Eddie, Nellie and Jimmy Carlisle are encumbered with a "hot little Maxwell gator" you need not expect to find Eddie and company at the local dug-out Saturday afternoon or Sundays as they are practicing "modern tennis" on Uncle Ben's melon patch.

Commonwealth Ave. Los Angeles, California "A Money Message" (Cr-reader Service) NEW YORK, June 13.—In answer to the reported statement of the Kleagle of the New York Kluxers that the Klan would obey the Walker Law ordering them to unmask and reveal the membership only "when the African Blood Brotherhood and other similar organisations among Negroes, Jews and Catholics are forced to publish their rosters," Cyril V. Briggs, Executive Head of the African Blood Brotherhood, emphatically denied today that the Brotherhood comes under the Walker Law. "The A. B. B.," said Mr Brigge, is not a secret organization. It is a body of Negro workers seeking legitimate ends in an open fight against the oppressors and exploiters of the Negro Race, the overwhelming majority of whose members belong in the ranks of Labor. The work of the A. B. B. is in the open and through such media as consumers' co-operatives, to fight the high cost of living; forums, educational classes, press service, lecture bureau, to disseminate racial and economic enlightenment among the Negro masses; Schools (Calisthenic clubs for adults and juveniles), Tiger Scouts, to keep the Race healthy and to teach discipline and team-work. In addition to these Sick and Death Benefit Department is under process of organization which, when organized, will offer the workers of the Race adequate protection in the field of fraternal insurance. The A. B. B. exacts no oath of its membership. The only initiation ceremony is almost completely covered in the following two paragraphs: "We welcome you into this Fraternity of African peoples and initiate you, in the spirit, in the ancient ceremony of "African Blood Brotherhood," which was an age-old custom on the banks of the Niger, the Congo and the Nile while yet civilization was young and the blond barbarian wandered in rough sheepskin over the plains of Europe. As in the glorious days of ancient times when sons and daughters of Africa not born of the same parents still became actual blood brothers and sisters through this sacred ceremony, so today the scattered peoples of African descent become one in actual-brotherhood under the far-flung standard of the A. B. B. "We hope that, inspired by the lofty ideals and the practical plans of the Brotherhood and its splendid record of achievement in the cause of race advancement, notably in the promotion of Race Solidarity and the raising of the economic status of Negro workers and protection of their interests, you will take up with willing heart and ready hand this Call to Race Service and salvation than which there is no more sacred call and opportunity in all the world since it is by service to the suffering and oppressed sections of Humanity that we can best help in establishing the "Kingdom of Heaven" upon earth." "There is not much to reveal of the ritual of the African Blood Brotherhood," said Mr. Briggs, "but all of our ritual, all of our secrets, all of our aims and aspirations could be revealed without proving or even indicating that we sought anything but legitimate aspirations. The A. B. B. is working in the open for legitimate ends, and everybody knows it except the Klan. "The New York Kleagle accuses us of mobilizing the forces of Organized Labor against it. Well, that is one of our aims as we naturally believe in lining up all the forces and movements to which the Ku Klux Klan is antagonistic. As we make clear in our program: "As, for the purpose of throwing off oppression, the enemies of the Imperialist system are our natural allies by virtue of being in the same camp and opposed to the same enemy, so the enemies of the Klan are our friends in that they fight the foe we fight. The Negro masses must get out of their minds the stupid idea that it is necessary for two groups to love each other before they can enter into an alliance against their common enemy. Not love or hatred, but IDENTITY OF INTERESTS AT THE MOMENT, dictates the tactics of practical people." We have never made a secret of our efforts to line up against the Klan all anti-Klan forces. It is a "dark secret" only in the minds of the Klan." ATLANTIC CITY, June. 13.—Henry Ford was charged with being the financial backer of the Ku Klux Klan in a resolution adopted by the Grand Lodge of the Order of Brith Abraham in the Hotel Jerome this afternoon. The resolution condemned Ford for his activities against the Jews and response to its introduction was a general denunciation of Ford from all sections of the hall. The resolution was adopted unanimously.

Dreman, a white attorney. Dreman states in his suit that the church had agreed to let him handle the financing and building of a new $6,500 church on a percentage basis. He has advanced several hundred dollars, he says, under an agreement that the trustees were to pay him a stipulated sum each month to defray building expenses. These sums have not been paid, he alleges. Th petition states that the congregation is insolvent and asks that a receiver be appointed to protect the interests of its creditors. Dreman does not state how he proposes to keep the brethren and sisters contributing to collections. * * * (By The Associated Negro Press) Wilberforce, Ohio, June 6.—The coming open tennis tournament promoted by the Wilberforce University on Decoration Day, May 30th, 1923, is creating much interest among local talent and the game is fast booming in this neck of the woods.

Press) Atlanta, Ga., June 6.—An echo of the days of terror during the railroad strike last Spring was heard in Fulton Superior Court this week when W. S. Morgan, Atlanta policeman, was on trial charged with the murder of Albert Everett, a colored porter, during a battle with strikers. A group of white strikers, assaulted Everett as he left the A. B. & A. shops and it was charged that policeman Morgan had shot him as he lay on the ground bleeding and exhausted from wounds inflicted by the strikers. The policeman plead that he was trying to arrest the Negro as a suspect for having shot a white man. The jury returned a verdict of not guilty in 15 minutes. *** (By The Associated Negro Press) Ann Arbor, Mich. June 6—Colored athletes of late seem to be leaning toward the broad jump, Dehart Hubbard of the University of Michigan who is expected to shatter the big ten record and come close to breaking the world's mark in the running broad jump at the annual track and field games of the western conference at Ann Arbor, June 1 nad 2, is the third colored athlete of recent years to break in the athletic spotlight in this feature. Sol Butler of Dubuque College, Iowa was one of the first. He was one of the most consistent broad jumpers of a few years ago and seldom failed to clear 23 feet on every effort. Butler, however, was a spinner and low hurdler and preferred to go in three events instead of one. Sol was followed by E. O. Gourdin of Harvard, the present holder of the world's record in the running broad jump at 25 feet 3 inches. The Crimson athlete was a fair high hurdler and spinner until Trainer Pooch Donovan, the old time professional foot racer, saw the possibilities of a record breaker in his colored star. Donovan took him out of the dash and hurdles and trained him for the broad jump with the result a new record was created. Gourdin made his record in 1921. Now the eyes of the athletic world are focussed on Hubbard, who should smash the record if favorable conditions exist on June 2, at Philadelphia this Spring, rain spoiled his chances. Like Butler and Gourdin, the Maize and Blue star is a spinner and hurdler. In fact, he may be used in three events at the big ten games as indications are a great battle will result between Michigan and Illinois for the honors. Chicago, June 6.—Chicago, "top of the world," for Colored America will be the great Mecca for tens of thousands of visitors this year, because of the many conventions to be held here, and others in the Middle West. Three of the big conventions will be right in the "Windy City." Thousands of visitors are arranging their tickets "via Chicago" going or coming to many of the other conventions for, as one prospective visitor stated: "It doesn't seem like we have been in the great middle West unless we spend some time in Chicago." Chicagoans are preparing to extend the traditional Chicago and western welcome to all who come. The housewives are setting their houses in order; the automobiles are being repainted when not replaced with new ones; the business men are having the thoroughfares put in "apple pie order" with new lights; the organizations and the society lads and lassies are fixing their dates already for public and private social events. J. A. Jackson, staff representative of The Associated Negro Press, has prepared the following schedule of 1923 conventions: Where the Conventions Will Be There is every indication that the colored conventions this year will exceed even those of 1923, according to THE CITY OF NEW YORK We do Shampooing, manicuring, dyeing, manufacturing and give Violet Ray Treatments.

For the number of visiting bands, the extent of sales with concession men, the public impression created and the hotel business, volume, the 1922 conventions were all remarkable. The weather breaks were, in the main very favorable. This year the I. B. P. O. Elkrs of the World are slated for Chicago, and this central location should attract even more than the fifty brass bands that went to Newark. This occurs August 13-16. The National Negro Musicians meet July 24-26 in the same city this year. The National Negro Tennis Tournament meets there also. The National Negro Business League and its affiliated bodies have selected Hot Springs, Ark., August 15-17 for their meeting place and time. The Imperial Music Hall off the Knights of Fythians will host 30,000 uniformed knights by New York the week of August 10. The N. A. A. C. K. Kane City, Min. August 10-Sept. 5. The New York State University of the I B. P. O. Elks of the World is set for June 20-30. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People occurs in Kansas City. The American Wooden Men's Conventions for the different districts are as follows: District No. 1—Oklahoma City, June 4-8; District No. 2—Charleston, S. C., May 14-15; District No. 3—Nashville, Tenn. June 4-8; District No. 4—Columbus, Ohio, July 16-20; District No 5—Baltimore, August 4-10. The Shriners go to Indianapolis, August 6-12, and since there are more of the membership of this order in the cities of the Middle West than on the Eastern seabird it is fair to presume that more than the 11,000 people who went to Washington last year will be there. The Honeyevol Protective Order of Reindeers meet the first Tuesday of Sept. for three days in Baltimore, Md. Addisburg, Ri. (Charles, D. Curtis, Grand Diorama, Larkville). POLITICS AND INDUSTRY The Negro's political power is increasing almost as fast as his industrial power. He comes from the South, where he secures the right to vote merely by his living here. His number is increasing so rapidly in most of the large cities that Negro candidates for office are the rule now rather than the exceptions. There are Negro alderman, magistrates and assemblyman in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Illinois, Ohio, Washington, Missouri, California and Kansas. In the great Negro ceters of New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Chicago (places having more than one hundred thousand Negroes) there is bisk talk of getting a Negro Congressman. To outsiders it would seem that the Negroes in these places are derelict, for not having elected a Congressman before now. But are problems (not under by the average outsider) who stand in the way. In oil纠 cities the Negro districts are gusset mandated that the Negro population is equally cut off three of four sections—one one of which is the small to act a Congressman. The determination, however, is still there. The Negroes want an official voice in Washington. They want a national spokesman who must be heard. They want a man of intelligence and courage. They seek some Negro who will stand up a high-class representative and not merely a petty word-healer. The industrial situation is going to help them put over their political emancipation. The skilled and unskilled are coming. Many independent farmers and small business men are selling their little possessions, getting the money and coming North to start life anew. They have either a little money, or they have good/jobs out of which they make money. Having some economic means stiffens the Negro's manhood. The man who is a longshoreman receiving $35 to $70 per week, the brick mason and plasterer earning $18 per day, the dress and waist worker who earns $35 to $50 per week, the hod carrier who makes $5 at $8 per day, the steel mill hand who earns from $4.50 to $12 per day—is not going to stand around the polls and sell his vote for a dollar, a glass of beer, a tember of whiskey, a cigar, a promise to get Negroes out of jail when caught gambling and the like. This Negro who is earning a living by honest labor is seeking a man's chance and a man's goal. He wants to build homes, educate his children, enjoy the theatre, ride in automobiles, invest wisely, organize businesses, lay aside a nest egg. The white political boss and his petty lieutenants will have to face a new Negro—not the he or do-well" the lottery holder, the race-track gambler, the city shark, the city pimp.

MENTSIN, June 13—"I favor armed intervention. Civilize them with Krags is my motto, and I don't believe many will have to be so civilized to make good little laundry men of the rest," states Major Roland W. Pinggen, T' S. A, one of the fourteen foreigners captured by Chinese outlaws and held on Paoztu Mountain. But Major Pinger, who would civilize the comparatively helpless Chinese nation with Krags and machine guns of continuous nature, he advises its ability that before putting into practice this time-honored anglo-saxon method of establishing law and order and peace a la graveyard, it would be best to consult the Japanese, who are not so helpless as the Chinese and who have rather a plentiful supply of Krags and machine guns themselves and would just leap with joy at the opportunity of catching an American army in any part of Asia. And as long as japan keeps its present form of mind off the question of Asia for the Asiatic neither the United States, in whose borders, reigns a terrorism far worse than any to be found in China, nor England or the two anglo-saxon puppy gods combined are going to civilize Chinese off the face of the earth. Japan stands guard over Asia! IF GERMANY GOES COMMUNIST! An Editorial By Cyril V. Briggs (Crisader Service ) Too long have we viewed world events and problems in the light of what is best for the white man. It is high time that we began to see events and problems in the light of their effect upon ourselves—through Negro eyes" and on the basis of what is best for our own Race, not for any other race and least of all for the capitalist-impelist group in control of the destinies of the larger part of the white race. in the Iraqi. Communists are leading the workers in armed revolt against the German capitalists who are rendered temporarily impotent by reason of the "failing out" that happened between German and French capitalists over the question of how much reparations Germany should be asked to pay to France and Belgium for destruction caused during the World War, and to these two nations, plus Great Britain and the United States for the privilege of having foreign troops mobilized upon her population. In unoccupied Germany it is reported that "the" Communists are making strides beyond their wildest hopes." In Saxony, the mixed Socialist-Communist Government virtually has capitulated to them." At the same time it is the opinion of observers on the spot that the Communists are not now planning a death grapple with the German capitalists, knowing full well that the French capitalists, while allowing them to harass their German friends in the selfish hope that in this way the German capitalists would be forced to capitulate to French demands, would immediately use the forces of the French Army of Occupation to crush them were they to be so indiscreet as to seize political control at this moment. Rather, the present aim of the German Communists is to prepare the masses for a "final struggle" at a later date, when there will be no French troops on hand to come in at the last minute on the side of the White Guards. But were Germany to go Communist, now or at some near-future date? What then? The capitalist-imperialist system of Europe, under which our race has suffered grievously for the last three centuries and more, would be menaced as never before in all its sinful existence. Communist itself and Communist Russia would naturally combine their forces for the Class War. And the two would make a redoubtable combination. In all likelihood they would sweep westward in an irresistible rush that would bury capitalist society under it and give the African and Asiatic races a most favorable opportunity for liberating themselves. And this opportunity would not wholly depend on the issue of Class War in Europe, since the very collision of such tremendous forces would be certain to create a temporary condition of chaos in Europe. And that period of chaos should give alert peoples their opportunity for unshackling themselves. The reaction of such a struggle would not be confined to the Old World but would be apparent in the United States, as well. Here the domineering angel-saxon would feel less sure of the permanence of this "racial supremacy" and would begin to "backhorse" while concurrently the Negro would be taking on new cojrage and increasing his demands. And in like manner, the working-class and the capitalist-class. There would be plenty of capitalist-class terrorism as when the workers at first, and against the Negro, too—both as a worker and as agro. But "as goes Europe so goes the world," or words to that effect. It is not through a German revolution alone, however, that the present European situation may possibilities direct aid to the legitimate aspirations of the African and Asian peoples, and of the World Proletariat for overthrow of the capitalist-imperial domination that has for many centuries cast a pall of sorrow over hearts of the working-class of excluse and country. The situation in England is just agonizing, they not as imminent. In France too, the new social forces of Communism threaten the old deprudatory system. And to those who understand that Great Britain and France, particularly the former, are the strong props in capitalist civilization, will come quick realization of the opportunity to the colored races that a social revolution in either of those countries would give rise to. The collapse of Great Britain would mean opportunity and freedom for hundreds of millions in Asia and Africa. So why should Negroes dread this break-up of the brutal British Empire? Why should they be concerned with the preservation of capitalist civilization—of the capitalist system under which they have been the chief sufferer? Why should they fear the spread of Communism in Germany when the Class-War in Europe means liberation for the "subject peoples?" (By The Associated Negro Peras) New York, N. Y. June 6.—The influx of Negro immigrants from the South has made it necessary to provide more churches and there are many buildings and organizations yet needed before the Negro communities in northern cities will have adequate church ministration, according to the Rev. W. A. C. Hughes, Superintendent Bureau of Negro Work. "A survey of conditions uncovers situations like that in the Harlem section of New York city. There the entire seating capacity of Christian churches of all creeds will accommodate 20,000 persons. Relaying on two services on Sunday only 40,000 can go to church, leaving 90,000 Negro people for whom there is not a place to worship available. Now the Negro, south or north is devoted to his church, therefore the denomination, and this occasion is marked by the alarming. The Methodist Episcopal Church, however, is trying to do more than merely provide a place of worship for these folk. It is trying to make the great adjustment easier for them so that they can reap the benefit of their' change of residence and environment. "East Calvary Church, largest single Methodist Church, and six other Negro churches in Philadelphia, are receiving aid in expansion under the new conditions, from the Board of Home Missions and Church Extension through the Bureau of Negro Work. Sharp Street Memorial Church, Baltimore, has a new community house as prominent in its expansion, which cost $75,000. Asbury Church, Annapolis, has expanded its sid of all kinds, using a three-story building purchased by the Home Missions Board. Scott Memorial Church, Detroit, will enlarge to suit the larger constituency and the call to larger activity. In all the Board of Home Missions and Church Extension through this bureau is making possible over thirty building projects for Negroes in northern cities, it is the part of the church to that these things, and this denomination is doing its utmost to meet the situation caused by the movement of Colored people to the northern centers." (BY The Associated Negro Press) WASHINGTON, D. C. June 6—"No longer can the south be left to solve the race problem," said Graham R. Taylor of Chicago speaking before the closing session of the national conference on social work in session here, pointing out that by migration it had spread to a national question, and "the north can no longer point the finger of scorn at the south's violence toward the Negro." Prejudice, Mr. Taylor said, will not be diminished, even though the Negro may become further advanced, until the white people have learned to evercome many of the prejudices now held against the Negroes, which in some instances are founded upon a background of myth, misunderstanding and misinformation. Indeed, the advance of he Negro may bring with it the increase of prejudice unless time-honored white prejudices are combated, with the result that the present-day race problem and its solution must "start with the whites," he declared. Miss Laura J. Abbott of the U. S. Dept of Labor was elected president of the organization. Many prominent colored social workers representing some 20 organisations were present, among them being Edgheo K. Jones, J. R. E. Lee, Charles S. Johnson, Jesse O. Thomas, Monroe N. Work, E.

The man who goes through the world with a grouch, who is always watching for an opportunity to get even with somebody whom he thinks has done him an injury, is put to many disadvantages in trying to carry out that threat. The desire for revenge acts in the system like a leaven of poison, crippling the brain power and inducing unhappiness. No one can do his best when he has the unkind DOES YOUR BODY REALLY CHANGE? M. B. Some people believe anything they hear because they are too lazy to think for themselves. How often have you heard a child exclaim, "There goes a haway mage; make a wish." A dressmaker may on Friday defer to grandmother till Saturday or even defer until Monday, and a real estate dealer says that he cannot sell a house because the number has a thirteen in it. However, logic teems for themselfs on the road to real intelligence. There is as little foundation for these foolish notions as there is for the rumor that "your bodies change every seven years." Almost every part of the anatomy, except the outside of the teeth and part of the bones, changes, slowly at all times, for the human structures wear and burn away, then are replaced by new material. This is one of the reasons why you have to eat. In a sense you "die daily" and build yourself up again from the nourishment taken. Were it possible to mark all the atoms in your food and those that go to make up your body you would certainly find that nearly all the material of the body changes in fr less than seven years or seven days. But this is an old sorcery number, and in most superstitions where figures are concerned, seven come in. It is frequently asked why, if the body changes so often, marks in the skin remain. The erason is that the form of the body stays, through the material of it comes and goes. The stuff that makes your muscles, flow into and out of them, still things that happened long ago are remembered by them. On the other hand, there are certain parts of the body which are simply made somewhere else, and are pushed out or up to serve for a little feeling, or resentment toward his fellowmen often. We often wonder how the white man ever expects to get by Saint Peter after living in America all his days. He lives in opposite to the teachings of Christ. He is the expression of his own religious teachings, that HE IS LORD AND MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE and all else are heathens and dwarfs—Men without any hope in God, and eternal misfits in his Creation. But some day he is going to take a tumble from his throne of self-conceitedness and prejudice. He will find himself lost because he has failed to apply the golden rule to his own questioned career. Everybody wants to get away from these old revengeful, grouchy, envious people, who always expect kindness, courtesy and praise, when they only give the nasty side of their character in return. The Black man pays no attention to these old mossbacks and freaks of humanity who are always out of tune with the world. and then to disappear.

CHURCH 1232 East 25th St. 1232 East 25th St. Christmas Services at this church last Sunday were impressive. The Sunday School was well attended and arrangements were made for a pleasant program and Xmas tree for December 24th, at 7:30 p.m. At the morning service the pastor spoke from the text, "The wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." One person came forward and knelt at the altar for prayer, and four persons joined the church. Both Endeavors were well attended, and lessons were good. At night the pastr spoke from the text, "Grow in grace, and in the knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ. The audience gave strict attention, and showed their appreciation. Next Sunday will be quarterly meeting at 11 a.m., 3 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. All are invited to come and worship with us. Major G. W. Prioleau, Pastor If you were not at services at the Mission last Sunday you missed something which, if added to your Christmas experiences, might be of assistance to you this week. Seventy in attendance at Sunday School, it was a splendid review. At the eleven o'clock service, which was well attended, the pastor spoke on the subject, "The Joyous Message". At this service was a very large number of visitors including Rev. Eugene Johnson, D.D., who will preach for the Mission Next Sunday morning. At 3:30 p.m. Rev. Price, of Watts, and his splendid choir had charge of the service. This was the service of the day. The sermon and music were inspiring. At the 7:30 o'clock service, Rev. Prince came all the way from Duarte and preached an excellent sermon. He filled the place of P. E. Washington, this being Quarterly Conference meeting day. Rev. B. R. Guy, and Rev. Green of Boyle Heights took part in the services of the day. We had excellentio services last Lord's day, a good bible school and high interest, Preaching morning and evening by our pastor. He brought us two beautiful messages on the Nativity of Christ. They were interesting and inspiring. We are doing well, Come and be one of us, and help to enhance God's kingdom. All are invited. Merry Christmas services were held Last Lord's Day, and every one present seemed to get into the spirit of the occasion. Bible School was very good. Brp. Owens, the newly elected superintendent, gave a very helpful address at the close of the session. Bro. L J. Williams is being sent by the church to take up the work at Watts Station, on Compton Blvd. The first Sunday in January, 1924 marks the real beginning of the Mission Branch of the Birch St. Christian Church. We rejoice to see the interest and welcome on the part of the members and friends at Watts. At 11 a.m. the minister preached from Matt. 22:41. "What think ye of Christ?" Whose Son is He?" Y. P. S. C. E. was very good. At 7:45 a Christmas program was well given as the result of faithful service by Mrs. Sterling Leo. Every one enjoyed it, also a splendid solo by Mr. White. You miss real treats when you do not come to Birch Street. Tuesday morning at 5 a.m. a splendid prayer service was held in the Church auditorium. Everyone present felt the Spirit of Him, who was born in the manger, at Bethlehem of Judea. Services every Lord's Day, Wednesday and Thursday. All invited. Good Music. Sunday was a fine day at Wesley. The pastor's Christmas sermon was a great effort and was much enjoyed by all. The Cantata in the evening by our great Choir was one of the beat in the history of our church. One person united with the church during the day. ST. VICTOR'S HALL DEDICATED TO SOCIAL AND RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES With the assistance of five hundred catholics and their friends, the Right Rev. Bishop John J. Cantwell, Bishop of Los Angeles dioceses, dedicated St Victor's Hall, 16th and Essex streets, Sunday afternoon. The speakers of the occasion were: Joseph Scott, Attorney; Rev. Father Nullane of the Cathedral and Noah D. Thompson of the Los Angeles Express. A fine musical program was rendered. Mr. J. W. Palmer acted as Master of Ceremonies. Our Lesson in Sunday School was most profitably discussed. Particular attention was called to the promised inheritance and possession of The Christ. At the 11 o'clock service Dr. Prowd spoke from Isaiah 55:24—"I have given Him for a Witness to the People, a Leader and Commander to the people." The pastor took occasion to speak on and emphasize the true spirit of Christmas. The congregation was urged to contemplate the blessings in possession and not to unfit themselves for the enjoyment of the season, by thoughts concerning what they have not. Dr. Prowd said that the joy of Christmas should come from within, rather than from expectations—from without. The B. Y. P. U. carried out a splendid program. At night Dr. Prowd preached on "The Inheritance of Christ." The inheritance on the We regret to report that Sis. Alice Johnson is ill. Come out this Sunday. PEOPLE'S INDEPENDENT CHURCH OF CHRIST 18th and Palma Sts. Rev. N. P. Greggs, Pastor Spiritual enthusiasm registered high last Sunday when the Pastor, Dr. Greggs delivered one of his masterly sermons.

At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the Federated Clubs of Women assembled at this church—Mme. Hicks of Pasadena, presiding, as Missress of Ceremonies. A thrilling address was delivered by Miss Hallle Q. Brown, President of the National Federated Clubs of Colored Women. She spoke in particular of the work of the National Federated Club of Colored Women, also of the effective work and fruitful efforts of the various local branches in the several states, in behalf of the Race. A fitting response was given by Mrs. Lula Slaughter, an ex-president of the local body, Others were introduced and made instructive and encouraging remarks. At night, the Choir rendered a very interesting program. The Christian Endeavor Society re-elected officers, putting back into office all of the old staff of officers. Charles A.

Eldridge, Pastor Last Sunday was a day long to be remembered. The Holy Spirit met us in the Sunday School and remained with us throughout the day. The National Evangelist Wm. Lewis was with us. The power in songs was thoroughly demonstrated by this wonderful man of God. The pastor filled the pulpit at both services. At the morning service his text was taken from Matt. 2:2. We have seen his star in the East and are come to worship Him." His text was influential in leading one to Christ. The B. Y. P. U. was well attended and lesson was interesting as well as helpful. The evening text was taken from Luke 2:7—"There was no room for them in the inn." Subject: "Crowding Jesus Out." We are lifting up the standard at Trinity, Come and worship with us. We wish you, one and all, a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Wholesome and inspiring services were enjoyed at the Christian Church last Sunday.

There were strangers from all parts of the city, and some of Mt. Zion's old members were among the visitors Sunday. The pastor spoke at the morning service from the subject: "Impenitent Sinners without Excuse at the great day." The text was taken from the book of Job, 31:14; "What shall I do, when God riseth up? And when he visiteth, what shall I answer?" The pastor and members of the Mt. Zion Church worshipped with First Baptist Church of Furlong. Rev. Williams spoke from the subject: "Under the eye of the Almighty." The text was taken from Gen. 16:13; "Thou, God, seet me." At the evening service, Rev. F. H. Davis preached a wonderful sermon form the subject: "Our Completeness in Christ." All were pleased with this great message. Eight more children were added to the Sunday School. Next Sunday the pastor will speak at both services. The Junior Missionary Society will hold its services with a program at 3 o'clock next Sunday. Good Singing. All welcome. TRINITY BAPTIST CHURCH West 36th and Normandie Ave. Rev. J. A. H. Eldridge, Pastor Our Sunday School was well attended, and the lesson taught with power. We are in need of a teacher, come out and help us. A large crowd gathered at eleven o'clock when our pastor gave way to our regular monthly covenant meeting which was enjoyed by all. Our B.Y.P.U. was wise indeed when they reelected Mrs. Francis Spikes as their president for this year, for under her leadership, the union has grown to be second to none. Our pastor brought us a burning message at seven thirty o'clock. His text was taken from Matt. 9:37-38. Subject: "Plenteous harvest", He showed us where the harvest truly is ripe, but the laborers are few. Come and worship with us, and we will do thee good. A welcome for all. Our church has changed its name. Its new name was given by the ladies of the church who defeated themmen in their drive to raise the $2,000.00. Beth Eden Baptist Temple, lige the mighty oak, proud monarch of the forest, has defied the storms, and stands at the strategic point of Central Avenue, the Pacific Board Walk and Paloma, at 27th Street. Rev. J. O. Gordon, Pastor Last Sunday was a soul-atirring day in Tabernacle, the Sunday School was largely attended and the B. Y. P. U. at night also; a most interesting program was rendered with Mrs. Cuffy giving an original reading and Mrs. Mamie B. Smith a solo. In the morning the Pastor, Rev. Gordon, selected for his text, Psalms 17:15—"I shall be Satisfied when I Awake with Thy Likeness." At night be prepared from Raveness. At night he preached from Romans 5:11—"The Atonement." We continue to have new additions to the Church and many of the misguided members are returning back to their church, the new year finds the members of Tabernacle up and about their duties. The Pastor is busy re-organizing the church, and setting it to work as was when he left it before. 1623 Paloma Street Rev. A. Lively, Pastor The auditorium was filled to capacity at each service Sunday, January 1st. There was no sermon in the morning, as it was the first Sunday, at which time New Hope holds its monthly covenant meeting. The pulpit was filled by the pastor at night, assisted by Rev. Banks. Miss Lutitia Robinson, was the soloist. She sang "Somebody Knows" in a very sweet manner. As usual, several additions were made to the roll during the day. Preparations are being made to launch a big rally on Easter Sunday, with the men against the women.

Bonnie Brae The meeting last Monday will be long remembered by all who were present. Dr. Thos. L.

Truly the address was a masterpiece. The speaker held his hearers spell bound while he urged upon every leader to plan for larger programs, sufficiently large enough to carry out all conditions in the great commission.

Our strongest members seemed to have taken on new strength, spiritually. We expect this year to be the happiest and best in the history of First Baptist. On last Sunday evening the most wonderful reports were given by the secretaries and treasurers of the different bishops for the year 1923. Such reports would bear the test of some calibration. We cannot however, that it is due to the fact that we have an enabling environment that we believe in better, who is characteristically Sunday services at this fast growing church, were of that high order that usually characterizes them. The pastor preached at the morning and evening hours sermons that uplifted and inspired. The Communion of the Lord's Supper was administered.
