DIVORCE CASE OF PROMINENT SOCIE TY WOMAN WILL BE HEARD IN SUPE, RIOR COURT NEXT THURSDAY
High society will wash linen in the divorce case on next Thursday when the case of W. L. Stevens vs Willa A. Stevens is called in the Superior Court of this county. The firms of Bartlett & White and Hugh E. Macbeth, are the attorneys for W. L. Stevens, the plaintiff; while Willis O. Tyler represents the defendant, Mrs. Willa A. Stevens.
On account of the prominence and wide acquaintance of both parties to this suit, it will doubtless attract a great deal of attention. W. L. Stevens is well known as one of he most efficient police officers in the entire country. He is now a lieutenant of detectives. His wife, Mrs. Willa A. Stevens, belonged to the ultra fashionable strata of society and occupied, perhaps, the leading role in the front ranks of Los Angeles social circles in so far as the ultra, super affairs were concerned.
The above facts coupled with the sensational charges made in the complaint for divorce furnish choice morsels for the wise ones to digest, and of course is of more than passing interest to them. There have been many conjectures and reports as to the charges contained and for the information of the public, we are publishing both the complaint filed by the husband, W. L. Stevens, in his amended complaint and the cross complaint filed by his wife, both of which are upon the records of the Hall of Records.

2. For such other and further relief as to this Court may seem just.

PUBLIC MEETING
Yielding to the demands of its members and depositors, the directors of the Liberty Building-Laken Association, have consented to a public meeting to be sponsored by the Liberty Boosters Club.
The growth of this Association has been the outstanding romance of business development in California. This Association started with a nucleus of ten men and women who placed the first ten thousand dollars necessary to secure a permit to do business as a licensed building and loan association. The opening day on March 17th will be long remembered as a gala day in the business achievement of our people. A high mark of business was reached when over $89,000.00 in Membership Shares was subscribed. The office was kept open until 11:00 p.m. to take care of the new depositors on this epochal day. The Association has grown from the first small group of ten people to over 400 members and depositors. It now takes three regular employees to handle the regular business of and six employees are engaged in the field. The Association holds over $30,000 in mortgages, secured by over $120,000 in desirable property; in taking care of number of collections and has just opened a general insurance department. Another progressive step was taken when the members of the Association, headed by E. L. Dorsay, formed themselves into a Boosters Club, to get a better understanding of the principles of banking, to get a better understanding of business in general and to encourage reputable businesses among our people. Thru the efforts of this Club, which devotes its full program to business progress, the City, as a whole will be greatly benefited.
"The object of this meeting," said Mr. Dorsey, "is to really show and explain to the public, the great value of this Association to the future growth of the city. Many people do not realize that the functions of a building and loan association are similar to those of a savings bank and that the State safe guards these associations to a greater extent than savings banks.
"It is not generally known" added Mr. Dorsey, "that you can open an account at the Liberty Building-Loa Association with as little as $1.00 and that you have the same withdrawal privileges that you have at any other location." Also that you have the advantage of earning per cent your savings". These and other important features will be explained by capable speakers at the meeting. Do not forget, invite your friends, come out and find out what is really going on in your city at the Y. M. C. A. 9th and Hemlock Streets, Wednesday, July 2nd, $:30 p. m.

Messrs Joseph Marable, John H. Williamson and Lawrence Williamson left last Wednesday in Mr. Marable's sport Kissell for Boston, Massachusetts, which place is the home of Mr. Marable, who goes to pay a six month's visit to his mother. The Will
of mountanhous scenery, and a spot of cultivated soil, here or there it lends a rather odd and unusual sight, pleasing to the eys, that is constantly trained on lawns and floral beds adamant to city scenery cultivated to the degree by high salaried gardeners employed by both city and private individuals to beautify our city parks, private estates and homes in and about our beautiful city. To those whose eyes constantly rest upon such, truly the country in and about Elsinore offers something different especially at sunrise and sunset. But scenery is not what has made Elsinore, both popular and famous, but its semifrared atmosphere, and its wonderful lake consisting of several mineral waters is the foundation of Elsinore's popularity. Elsinore is 85 miles from Los Angeles or about three and one half hours ride and is reached by bus, auto o rtrain. One has the choice of hotel accommodations or tent houses in addition to suitable accommodation in private homes. Good room, and board may be had for 10 or 12 dollars a week. A syndicate headed by Dr. Wilbur Gordon, realizing the dire necessity of securing a footing on the lake in order that the public might not be shut out, purchased something over a year ago, enough acreage to insure appropriate location for the erection of a boat, bath, and club house. Ordinarily game abounds in and around the foot hills, and one should not overlook the old shotgun, rifle and a few rounds of ammunition.
Last year over 10,000 visited this wonder spot, which for health, and recreation is not to be overlooked in one's search for a place to spend their vacation.
Mr. John E. Prowd, of Watts, California, and his new, yet old acquaintance of school days in South America, Mr. Leon Riley, are creating a sensation in a high powered, closed car in Eastern Los Angeles, and folks are wanting to know who the fair damms are by their sides.

THE INDEPENDENT CHURCH OF CHRIST
18th and Paloma Sts.
Rev. N. P. Gregge, Pastor
Everybody has a day now-a-days, so last Sunday was Children's Day at the People's Independent Church of Christ. The morning services were odd but interesting. The pastor, Rev. Greggs, preached a very pointed sermon on the subject: "Pencils." His practical points were such that interested both old and young, and as a result of his practical and inspiring sermon there were a number of accessions to the church, both children and adults. The soloist of the morning was Miss Addle Hutcherson. Excellent music was rendered by the Choir. St John's Day services by the Five Lodges of Free and Accepted Sessions was held at 3:00 o'clock at the Church. Sessions were by Dr. H. B. Gantt music was rendered by the choir of the People's Independent Church of Christ. The program at 7:30 in the evening of the Sunday School opened up with a large procession of children and teachers. Young men of the Sunday School had he program in charge. Samuel Brown at piano; Mr. Willis Sarks, Director; Mr. Rosie Washington, Master of Ceremonies and Henderson Benjamin, Master or Finance. Numbers by the little kids, both musical and literary were very, very good. The decorations were very tastefully arranged, and the entire program showed that paints were spared by the Superintendent, Mrs. B. Prentice, and her corps of officers and teachers to make the program interesting, whorish while and exemplary of progress.
Next Sunday promises to be a very interesting day at the church. The program will be educational and modifying the church will unfold the students and affiliates of the Bigger Business College. Dr. Greggs will do:
learn the educational sermon. The Choir will sing special music. At 4:7 it in the evening a grand display of all the machines used in business will be on exhibit, and will be operated by the graduates, faculty members of the College and absentees of the Business Girls' Association. The Business Girls Association will be the honorary guests of the graduates, in connection with the display of machines a special musical program will be rendered. Mrs. C. A. Bass, managing editor of the California Eagle, will deliver the famous educational address. President C. A. Baggers will present the diplomas to the graduates.
Every feature of the program will be worth witnessing from start to finish.
As usual the church was crowded to overflow last Sunday morning, and the spiritual feeling was at its height through the day. The pastor in the morning delivered a thrilling sermon from the text, 1 Cor. 15:18, subject: "Christian Steadfastness." In the course of the sermon the pastor remarked that a Baptist resents the suggestion that he can fall from grace, but according to the Epistle of Peter he can certainly fall from steadfastness of the early church. It deeply touched all hearts, and the institution was extended to persons to unite with the membership, Miss Anna-Mal Leiber Griffith very touchingly sang Dr. Tindley's song "Some Bay." Among the worshippers at the morning service was Attorney Turner of Chicago who has recently won a case in the Federal Courts of Los Angeles.
At the evening worship we were very glad to have, Rev. F. H. Davis with us. He delivered a very healthy sermon on the text "All things are Yours." The choir rendered beautiful and inspiring songs at both services. We are always glad to have visitors and strangers to attend our services.

The interest at the Gospel Tent is on the increase judging by the increase each night in the crowds that are attending. Evangelist P.

FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH
Kurlong Tract
On last Sunday God's spirit reigned in mighty power throughout the day. In the morning services we had two wonderful conventions, four people were wonderfully healed, one of whom tended to suffering much with heart trouble for eight months. She was bed-fast on last Sunday week and her husband sent word to the church her desire to have Rev. Hines come and pray for her, he went immediately, as a result she has been able to be up ever since, being in service Sunday morning she went to the alter together with many others it was there she was drowned with the power of God. Many marvelled at what their eyes behold and could but say surely the 'atmosphere is filled with the presence of God.
On next Sunday B. Y. P. U. hour will be the winding up of a big week at First Baptist at this time a program will be rendered by the Brothers only. Come and hear them. This program week is given under the auspices of the Pastor's Aid Department, the object of which is to help raise funds to send our pastor to the convention.

There was much interest manifested in our Sunday School last Sunday. The lesson was most profitably studied and applied. The many new Scholars received heartiest welcome. At the 11 o'clock service Dr. Prowd delivered a very timely sermon, taking for his text: "Launch Out Into the deep." These words of the Saviour to his forlorn and disappointed Disciples were driven home for resumed effort and encouragement. Our people were believing themselves in another real Church House. This coming Sunday will be rally day and we expect all to be on hand to do duty. We request aid of all our friends in our laudable work.
At the usual hour and according to appointment Mr. Riley was on hand to deliver his address on the subject: "Why Crime Does Not Pay." Mr. Riley's good intentions are unchallenged. He takes a fine and noble position as a young man against modern society, and he brings others to his point of view, is to be highly commended. The object he presented is worthy of consideration and deep study. Come out this Sunday and worship with us.

She is the coming writer of our group and deserves great encouragement and support in her work.
This drama will be staged in the near future watch this column for the announcement.

The vacation school at First A. M. E. Church opens in full bloom Monday with quite a few children on hand. The groups contains mostly Japanese and Mexican children. The parents of our group are asked to send their children out to these classes that convene from 9 till 12 A. M., where they are taught Bible stories, instructed in the art of basketery, sloyd, nature talks, sewing and etc. This is an opportunity that should not be looked upon slightly but taken advantage of by every young boy and girl.

MRS. ZELLA BURTON PREACHES
Sunday night at Friendship, Club No. 1 presented Mrs. Zella Burton of Wilberforce, a scholar of Divinity.
She was to have spoken in the afternoon but owing to a prearranged date for the masonie sermon in the afternoon the affair was held at night.
Early in the evening before the young peoples service was dismissed crowds began to assemble anxious to obtain seats to hear Mr. Burton and by the time service began the house was filled to overflowing. She spoke from the text "Behold I stand at the door and knock," which was wonderfully delivered. She is to be complimented
the new ability is ready to the task
she no doubt will be able to do better
than she ever studied matters entirely. Mrs. Burton has taken only a short course in theology but by the time she had finished her studies, judging
from the experience she has had, her equ
will be willing to continue in contemplating
making disciples her future
home, but no definite plans as yet.
She is the wife of Mr. A. Burton, one
of the late accessiones in the church,
who is an ardent church worker.
MADAM YEAR RECITAL
The Eighth Annual Recital of Madam Kateh Test was the success
having accepted all major occasions.
Each year Mrs. Test gives a Recital for her students showing the progress
they are making and their accomplishments in the technique of the art.
She has been very successful this year
in the development of her pupils,
among whom we especially mention
in Rosalind De Priest who with her
finished work is able to tutor first and
second grade scholars. Miss De Priest
is the first pupil to finish under Mrs.
Test as an instructor since she has
been in California. This program is
what she terms her Jubilee Program.
Among her list of participants for the
evening program are five white pupils,
some of whom are children of Sargent Abbott of Pasdana Police force. There was also a pastime for 12 girls and an original composition
by Prof. Wilkins, "Path of Destiny." Remarks were made by Mrs. Eva Over-Solomon, Director of Religious Education, Sergent Abbott and the pastor. Each successive year's Recitals exceeds her former
aunts. A grand square piano was
used for the occasion.
There is a three-day Bazaar at the residence of Frederick James on N. Michigan avenue beginning on the 26th and lasting through the 28th. This organization is doing a great work in its efforts to furnish a charity ward in the Dunbarn Hospital of Los Angeles for the patients that go from this city. They are calling up on the people of Pasadena to visit at least one night and by doing so they will be fully able to accomplish their desire.

THE STAFF GIVES BANQUET
Monday night in the Sunday School
room of Friendship Baptist Church
the band tendered the heads of the
respective auxiliaries of the church
and the captains of the many clubs, a
basket. The occasion was the get-
ting together of these officials that
they might receive some inspiration
kindred to the task they have before
them of raising the second portion of
the 5000 rally which is begun. The
meeting was spaced with the visitation
of young Mr. Mertian, son of
Judge Marrihan and the KGV. Mr. Handel,
assistant pastor of the First Baptist
Church. Ere the program began
all set down to a nicely prepared feast
which proved to be very palatable.
After the completion of the dinner,
which was payed with invocation by
Deacon Payne, the Rev. Dr. Young,
acting as Master of Ceremonies,
introduced Van Williams, adjutant of
the staff, who extended a hearty welcome
to the visitors and the officers
of the respective auxiliaries, responded
to by Mrs. I. H. Ford, in her remarks
speaking of the formation of
the clubs and the constructive work
accomplished through organization.
Rev. Young then introduced Mr. Mertian
who in a few words compliment
to Mr. Handel, introduced him
as the next speaker. He spoke at
long upon the matters appertaining
to the work in which we are engaged
and in his simple, yet concise statements,
he delved deep into the sub-
ject, telling us of our objective, and
showing us the way out. The real
purport of his argument was for a
closer relationship of working forces
augmented by team work, linking, de-
libration, enthusiasm, business
and made a strenuous appeal for general co-operative action. He was responded
to by Eva Ova Overr-Solomon, Director of Religious Education who spoke very forcibly emphasizing the extreme necessity of team work and
the good to be accomplished. She also admonished her hearers to stand as a bulwark against any invasion
that threatens to destroy the good
will of any well-organized body. The pastor then emphasized a few cardinal points relative to our club activ-
Rev. E. Martin Lewis, our eloquent speaker, pastor of Graco Presbyterian Church, prescheduled a beautiful sermon Sunday morning highly appreciated by his congregation. Rev. Lewis is quite a favorite in Seattle, and is highly praised for his noble ability and also a Christian gentleman.

MARCEL PROUST cru
AN ENGLISH TRIBUTE ee
COLLECTED BY: ‘C, K. SCOTT MONCRIEFF
New York: Thomas Seltzer. Price $1.75 Ata.
«. Marcel Proust, author of “Remembrance of Things Past”
is im this book brilliantly discussed by twenty-one famous mem-
bers of the British literati.
The essays were collected following Proust’s death on No-
vember 18th, 1922 by Mr. Moncrieff, the translator of “Swann’s
Way” and “Within a Budding Grove,” two of Proust’s best
, known works, both of which are issued by Seltzer.
The book itself is a symposium of appreciation for the ge-
nius of Marcel Proust. Proust’s methods are analyzed, discussed
and criticized. Where he shews ability his critics annlaud him.
Where he falls into the common errors of fifth novelists, his
gritics unsympathetically assail him. The reader cannot but
find this group cf essays provocative of much thought. The es-
shy by George Saintsbury is notable ir its liberal criticism of
’s work: while that f Mr. Jcseph Conrad somewhat

._ ChigeBeiitienents the Jack of appreciation of Proust’s ge-
nius ig. Fema; 5h Sg it Proust’s characterization was of
a kind'which makes characters stand out from the general run
of characters in popular fiction.
“Proust moves in a world unknown almost ‘o the intellec-
tual middie classes from which are drawn magistrates,
Judges and legislators. These lag behind, and impose iheir
veto on the sincere treatment of English manners by a first-
rate English artist. And perhaps the last tribute which En-
glish admirers of Proust could pay his memory would ke %0
agitate for the repeal of those absurd and barbarous laws
which make an English “Recherche du Temps Perdu” im-
possible.”
Arnold Bennett writes of Proust with scarcely disguised
acrimgny, but is appreciative, never thelacs, of his good points: |
“Proust never ‘presents’ a cHaracter; he never presents
a situation: he fastens on one ‘or two aspects of a charac-
ter or a.gituation, and strictly ignores all the others. And
he is scarcely ever heroical, as Balzac was always; he rare-
ly exalts, and he nearly always depreciates—in a tolerant
way .... Speaking generally, Proust's work declined stead- |
ily from the “Swann.” “A-1 Ombre des Jeunes Filles on :
Fleurs” was a fearful fall, and as volume followed volume
pentine string . That Proust was’a genius is not to be
doubted.” s
"Speaking of Proust’s style, Mr. Arthur Svmons writes:
“There is no naked vision in Proust; his vision is like a
clouded mirror, in whose depths strange shapes flash and
vanish. The only fautless style in French is Flaubert's;
that style, which has every merit and hardly a fault, be-
comes what it is by a process very different from that of
mest writers careful of form... . Only he never startles
you, as Balzac startles you. 3
Some of the cpinions of the remaining writers are marked-
ly divergent on some diversified features in Proust’s rovels, but
all agree to the wideand beneficial influence which be exerted
over contemporary. literzture. Lovers of Proust will be more
able to appreciate him after reading this groun of stimulating
essays. The book is not illustated—why should it be ?—but it
is handsomely bound and printed. .

LITERARY NONSENSE
AN ESSAY IN DEFENSE OF BOKS
By: James W. McGregor t
One is certainly amused at some of the shallow, self-con-
flicting and ridiculous tyne of reading matter which he encoun-
ters from time to time from the ven of so-called leaders of
thought who endeavor to persuade themselves of their superior
thinking ability and to affect ap air of intellectual authority on
things about which they reveal themzelves to know very little
or ncthing while their less presumptuous students, who can
really see their folly, are making football frolic out of their
paraded deficiencies. But this amusement very often trans-
forms itself jnto pain and disgust when it is it observed that so
many gullible and thoughtless readers accept and “swallow”
these drivelings of journalism as authoritative gospel simply
because they chance to find themselves in cold black type.
We have ne quarrel with the man who claims a right to
his own opinion. On the contrary, we sincerely appreciate, res-
pect and admire the exercise of private judgment; but when
the limits of private, judgment aie relaxed and public interest
and appreciation are invited the author who thus releases his
thoughts thereby places himself at the bar of public opinion
and should not be surprised nor chagrined when he finds his
written or spoken utterances under the fire of examination and
cross-examinatign.
With this view we direct the attention of our readers to
an article appearing on page 19 of “Collier’s--The National
Weekly” for May 17. The article is cntitled: “HOW YOU
GET EDUCATED.” and reads as follows:
THE EAGLES. LITERARY
————
a
=
i “It Is impdssible to get at life through books, You must
get at books through life. We do not hear of the Founder of
Christianity writing anything, nor does He seam to. have been:
a great reader, Speaking of the university men of His day,
He declared that.they had eyes and saw not; ears and hoard
not.
f ‘True Education consists in learning rightly to use our
eyes, our ears, our hands, and our minds, so that each one
of us, for himself and herself, may make a new discovery of ~
the world we five in. Thus each of us ‘will live more’ iully
and at the same time enrich -the lives of others.” oe:
| At a glance, the reader of average intelligence can_ ob-
serve the logical entanglements of the foregoing expressions.
Such entanglements usually emanate from one or more of three
scurces—ignorance, prejudice and downright intellectual dis-
honesty. Whichever of these is responsible for the orediqe-
ment of the author in. question we shall leave to the judgment
of our réaders.
To us it is at once apparent that if he were squipped with
that kind of “true education” of which he affects so-well an un-
derstanding as to be able to preach to others, and which, he
seys, “consists in learning rightly to use our eyes .;. . and our
minds,” he would have seen at once the barbarous use of En-
glish to which he descended in the lazt paragraph of his cs-
say, to say nothing of the biblical iznorance and mental stupid-
ity which he displayed in the first. If, according to'him, “it is
impossible to get at life through! books,” how must we “get at
bocks through life.” may we ask? In one sentence he com-
pletely divorces life from boolts, then in another he endeavors
te re-marry them by the converse method—a feat which resem-
bles an acrobat appearing to leave the stage by jumping from
cone end of it. but finding himself again on the stage by imme-
diately climbing up from the other cnd! 4
The positive declaration of the author of the above quota-
tion that “it is.imnossible to get at life through books,” is at
or:ce a challenge to the long established and acknowledged
value of all the schools and colleges of the world, The, uni
verzal assumption is that these, institutions /exisf to! aed
and women through the mediuili OF Booked #3 i ae
velop an intelligent and discriminating undexstieding 2f life;
and, so far, this assumption has: been Sta tohenats: confirm-
ed by the increasing progress of culture among the various peo-
ples of the world. A good test of the practical worth of this
amazing utterance would be for every individual who wns
books to dispense with them—to burn or destroy them in some
way—and for every publisher of books and magazines, in-
cluding “Collier’s,” to cease, all further ‘publication’ of the
same, and then let us all endeavor to “get at life”—that is, f
there would be any life at which to get! We fancy: we hear
the traducers of books crying aloud in one of Churchill’s aot-
able lines:
“Wits are safe things; there’s danger in a fool.”, The dif-
ficulty of the statement lies inthe wanton use of the ward “im-
possible.” a Re
The accepted test of all great literature is that it iS/oriniar-
ily a reflection of life. In other words, books themselves are’an
expression of life. If this is. true, then we are unable to see
why it is “impossible to get at life through books.” {f the writ: |
er of the article in question will concede that the Bible is a
beok, we should like to ask him why would it be “impossible |
to get at life” through this book? If he will agree that the |
werks cf Shakespeare and the mathematical nronositicns of
Euclid are books would he undertake to exnlain to us why)
would it be “impossible to get at life” through :these? ‘The
greatest moral genius and intellectual wizard of American his- |
tory—Abraham Lincoln—ascribed the develooment of his
ability to cope with life largely to these influences; and illus-
traticns are nct wanting in the history of the human sace to
demonstrate how men have found their key to life through
books. 2
It is evident that the author’ of the article under review
kriows very little, if anything, of the “Founder of Christianity”
and the methods by which His doctrines were developed and
preserved when he writes that: “We do not hear of the Found-
er of Christianity writing anything, nor does He seem to have
been a greM reader.” The fact that the New Testament Scrip-
tures are silent as to the methods by which the “Founder of
Christianity” was,’ for thirty years, preparing Himself for His
three years’ work is not sufficient of itself to warrant the dog-
matic assumption that He does not “seem to have been a great
reader.” Asa matter of fact a passage in the 40th verse of the
second chapter of St. Luke’s Gospe] reads thus: ‘And the child
grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom.” The
12th chapter of St. Matthews’ Gospel recodds, in its, opening
passages, the story of how the “Founder of Christianity” -re-
buked the Pharisees who were so surprised because on the Sab-
bath day, He plucked the ears of corn and gave to‘hig disciples
who were hungry. As He rebuked them He used words to this
effect (verses 3 and 5): “Have ye'not read what David did,”
etc? and “Have ye not read in the law,” etc? Again the ioe
chapter of the same Gospel, where it is related that the Phari-
sees tempted Him by the question as to whether it'wes lawful
for a man “to put away his wife for every cause,".He used!
words to the cate effect in His answer, i. e., “Have ye not read
that he which made them at the beginning,” etc? And in the
2tst and 22nd chapters of the same Gospel, as also in the 6th.
chapter of St, Luke’s Gospel, similar words are recorded tq His
credit. In the face of such testimony we are unable to unger-
stand how He could have honestly and persistently put such’
questions to His enemies had He not Himself read the things.
about which He asked them. But more than all, the 16th verse”
of the 4th:chapter of St. Luke’s Gospel bears this recard: “And
He came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up:.and, as
Hig custom was, He went into the synagogue on the Sabbath
day, and-stood up for to read.” And the next verse continues:
“ud there was delivered unto Him the book of the prophet

dustrius reader and writer of the Christian truth—going even
to the extent of recommending the youthful Timothy to “give
proud possessors of those living messages which the “Founder
of Christianity” delivered to mankind. 3 ’
When the author further writes that: as of the
university men of His day, He declared that they had eyes aiid
saw Riot: ears and heard not,” he again displays a pitiable lack
of knowledge of the very example which he wees to support his
curious statements, The “Founder of Christianity” . certainly
spoke nothing of the kind to the “umiversity men of His day.”
There is not a single passage in the four Gospels of the New
Tespezargt bearing, 227 ouch wtterance of Christ to the Jewish

the verses, from the 2nd to the 6th, inclusive, and then turn to
135h Psalm and reed the 15th, 16th and 17th verses—where in
both places the Pralmist mock the idols of the heathen as gods
whieh have eyes, but sce not; have ears, but hear not—he will
find himself hopelessly confusing the expressions of the Psalm-
ist concerning the idols of the heathen people with the. critic-
ism' of Jesus Christ against the hypocrisy of the Scribes and
Pharisees. ,
This is the authority which undertakes to inform us of
what does “true education” consist. We are in.a position to
vay at once that no kind of “true education” will efficiently
function to secure for us a “new discovery of the world we live
inv” unless it first gives to us a ‘new discovery” of our own defi-
ciencies—our own lamentable ignorances, prejudices, intellec.
tual impudences and shortcomings. This is our advice te the
writer who recently essayed to teach us in “Collier’s—The Na-
tional Weekly” how to “get educated.”

Las Viudas Allegras Dance
Choosing June 18th as the second annual dance, Las Vudas Allegras Club again entertained several hundred of their friends at Music Arts Hall.
The lobby where the adjustment of tapestry, rugs, cut flowers, birds and wicker furniture in their proper settings, was most beautiful. Th hall was lovely with potted ferns, birds and black, white and orchid decorations, which emphasized the club colors.
The opening was a picture alone. The music being, concealed behind curtains on the stage, reminding one of the birds in the forest which was revealed after the first selection was played which made a perfect picture of the Sunnyland orchestra being in full dress.
Many, many beautiful gowns were worn by the ladies which are too numerous to mention as well as the men who were in full dress attire.
The affair can never be forgotten as a real asset among the society folk of Los Angeles, who are looking forward to the third annual of Las Viudas Allegras.

The Sport Attire Dance at Normandie Hall on Thursday evening given by the Modern Priscilla Club ranks among the prettiest affairs of the season. By far a large majority of the 300 guests were attractively and tastefully attired in sport wear, while every member of the club were a fetching sport costume and their husbands looked their best in blue coat and white trousers.
Mrs. Jeanette Howard won a beautiful mulberry taffetta pillow made by the nimble fingers of Mesdames Carrie Irvin and Viola Smith as 1st prize for selling the most tickets. The club extends many thanks to Mrs. Howard.
This club is everything the word "Modern" implies as Art Needlework is studied from the simplest to the most intricate, while there is talent along the lines of voice, piano, string instruments and, elocution, which is displayed every 5th meeting and each member is excellent in the art of culinary.
The Modern Priscillas do a great deal of charity work toward individuals, families, institutions and churches. Therefore we wish to thank all who helped to make our dance a success.
The members of this progressive club are Mesdames Flora Alexander, Irene Butler, Pearl Browning, Estella Cook, Carrie Irvin, Bessie McCaskill, Australia McCarthy, Estella Montague, Florence Moyer, Madoline Osborne, Carrie Parsons, Adell Pollard, Genera Perkins, Viola Pollock, Birdie Robertson, Viola Smith, Juanita Scott, Geneva Wade, Carmen Williams and Bessie Wstrobbles.

"Co-operative banking" more clearly describes to the public generally, the plan and purpose of the building and loan idea, than any two words. All people understand the thought you wish to convey, when you say "banking." By saying "co-operative banking" you have in two words the most expressive and suggestive term.
The value of these associations is so well understood, and the benefits which they confer are so well-known, that the laws of every State favor and encourage their organization. In California, they are under State supervision and inspection and wherever they operate, they have done marvels of good in teaching habits of thrift, which stimulates and increases the volume of business in every line.

LOS ANGELES BAPTIST MINIS
TERS UNION MASS MEETING
It is with pleasure that we are announcing a Mass Meeting of the Baptists of Southern California at the Pleasant Hill Baptist Church. June 29, 1924, at 3 p. m. for the purpose of conferring the degree of D. D. upon its most eminent pastor, Rev. W. H. Rozier. The Los Angeles Baptist Ministers Union extends an invitation to all and especially Baptists to join in this grand affair. Rev. W. H. Rozier needs no introduction to the rank and file of Baptists in California, for he has made Los Angeles his home city for over twenty years.
Before entering the ministry, he was a successful business man and after realizing that he was chosen of God to minister to the souls of mankind, through the faithful preaching of the gospel of Jesus Christ and otherwise, he forsook his successful business career and entered into the field of labor ministering to the needs of humanity. The result has been that he has erected a large and commodious house of worship, situated on the corner of Bonnie Brae and Court St. Starting with a membership of five, through toil, sacrifice and sticking to the work, he has now a membership of nearly three hundred of which the Baptists of Los Angeles City and Southern California are justly proud. Now what shall be done to him, whom the king delights to honor for this grand and noble achievement. Why, the Western Baptist University of Missouri, through its Board of Trustees, has passed a resolution that the degree of D. D. be given Rev. W. H. Rozier for this successful and splendid achievement of which we, as Bap-

facts, believe that he is worthy. On the fifth Sunday in June, the Western Baptist University will have its representative here in the person of Dr. Schruggue, to confer this honor. May I appeal to all loving and true Baptists, friends and all other denominations to be present to make this one memorable occasion for the interest of the Baptists at large and our dear brother in the ministry. Don't fail to be present. The moderator of the Western Baptist Convention, Rev R. N. Holt, D. D., will be master of ceremonies. Enough said.
THE LOS ANGELES FORUM
By. H. A. Howard
On Sunday, June 29th, the Forum will hold its election. All members that are eligible in "Voting" must be out, so as to cast their "Votes" intelligibly.
According to the constitution and By-Laws, no President is allowed to be served more than two years. The Hon. John E. Pitts, has served his first year and I think is service unquestionable. It is the duty of all true members to come out and cast your "Vote" in large numbers. In which will be his last term.
The Forum meets at the corner of Eighth and Wall Streets. Friends and visitors ar always welcome.
A call through the Eventing Express by the president of the Eastside Mothers Club for a flag for decoration day brought three flags; one from the Boy Scouts of America troop 30; one from the Golden State Masonic Club, P. and A. M., the other from the Feldman Sisters. Mr. Arthur Cole gave the flag pole. The club had flag raising at the home on Flag Day with appropriate exercises. Short talk were made by M. S. Garrett. Probation officer, for retarded children. Mr. T. A. Green of the Y. M. C. A. and Mrs. Charlotta P. Stearns of San Diego. Mr. Frank Hammond addressed the children on behalf of the Masonic Club. A letter was read from the Feldman sisters who could not be present and the history of their flag. The club is very proud of the flag, each one having its significance. Mr. J. B. Bass, of the Eagle, and the big brother of the club was introduced. Light refreshments were served, and pictures taken by Mr. Newman.
MT. OLIVE BAPTIST CHURCH

Rev. W. R. Hutchinson, Pastor
Sunday, June 22nd was a joyful day at Mt. Olive in Sunday School was the devotional day—the Senior Class led in being on time and attendance and offering. Our white friends continue to attend our Sunday School. We are glad for it. Sisters Williams and Mack are loving and faithful city workers. We are proud of them. Large numbers of the Mt.

The saints of M. T. Olive and Pastor Hutchinson will hold meeting at tent Monday night.

"THE PRAISE OF FOLLY"
What a pity it is when people, masquerading as rational human beings, fill their bodies with death dealing arsenic, possibly not fast, but surely slow, and rob their faces directly with chemicals that rob them of their birthright, in orde rthat they, poor fools, may imitate the white man in their jolly!
True, it is the result of a long process of mental training, to the tune of white superiority. It may be a *α* truism to say that they, guilty ones, are not responsible for their folly, but from now on the *fools* who do this are all that the term implies.
The teachings of white superiority have played their work well. White libertines, consorting with their black wenches, watched their bastards grow up to an adult state without claiming them. Whatever of evil showed in them was attributed to the blood of Africa; whatever of good was attributed to the blood of the dissolute wretch who begat them. This is the history.
MR. SLEMP PERFORMS SUPERB ACT
Hon. C. Bascomb Slemp, Secretary to the President and the ablest man who has presided at that desk in the White House for many years, crowned his many acts of friendship toward us by producing a letter written to him by the late President Harding told Congressman Slemp that he had discovered that he had made a grave mistake in attempting to encourage the illy-white thing, that he found he got nowhere with the business and that he found that he had not helped the party any; that he intended to right the wrongs done to the colored people, etc.
This letter from the grave proved
and opened the way for the embracing out of the lily-white snail, which was aurely headed for tombgamville. This letter, sent on by Mr. Blome by a none too grudious messenger, was called for and hardly demanded by Hon. Hilles of New York and the doom of lily-whiteism was written at least for four years and we hope for all the time.

Mr. Slemp did not need to have sent this letter forward had he not desired to aid his colored friends (as they are legion) in the party and we should be everlastingly grateful for this splendid use made of a personal letter to him from Mr. Harding. While on this point, it is pertinent to say that Mr. Slemp has done innumerable acts of kindness toward colored Republicans since he has been in the White House, no secretary to a president having been more courteous, thoughtful and obliging than he within our experience, which covers a quarter of a century, leaving out the eight years of the Wilson scourge, during which time this writer never put his foot in the White House.

And do not forget to ask me about Beach property. My prices can't be beat. Your policy should be: "What is hard for thee to master, is impossible for man. But what is possible and proper for man, is attainable by Thee."

GET ON THE BAND WAGON FOR THE Y. M. C. A.
No man or woman especially of our group can afford to fail to give something in the present drive of the Y. M. C. A. and join in with the glorious achievement of the Colored race for playing their part in the success of the same. There are only three more days to do this and we would suggest that should a solicitor fail to get in touch with you, that you will call up Dr. Albert Baumann, General Director of the drive or Prof. T. A. Green, the Secretary.
The drive is going to succeed, it must succeed and we want it so large that all may share the glory thereof.

The dismissal of 43 clerks from the office of the Register of the Treasury at Washington comes at a most inopportune time and we should think the Jim Crow Register appointed by President Harding had better ease up and get on to the fifty-fifty rule which should gvern even this department of our government.
The Democratic convention at least furnished some thrills when it undertook to stifle the Ku Klux Klan. The Klan is an original Democratic institution and of course the southern fireaters would not stand for the attacks against it without putting up a stiff fight.
We have no idea of bringing church differences to the forefront in these columns, but at the same time the small, hypocritical and incompetent preacher can rest assured should the occasion demand that we shall call his hand.

GOVERNOR RICHARDSON STILL BALKS.
Tammany Hall, greatest of all political organizations in country, under the leadership of the late Chas. F. Murphy, in appreciation of the loyalty of the colored voters of New York City, gave to them the fullest recognition and in no office which was controlled by Tammany did they fail to give to the colored voter's place in the same Mr. Murphy, his aides and supporters, proclaimed that this was not only right but was their bounden duty from the fact that this vote had been loyal to them and played no small part in the victories which they had gained. The colored voters of New York City had never given their support to Tammany, until they had worn out their patience in supplication to the opposing party of that city for some sort of recognition. But like Governor Friend Richardson of California as often as they tried, just so often were they denied and consequently patience ceased to be a virtue and if they procured recognition they had to get it elsewhere, hence there was no other alternative and to Tammany Hall they went. As a result today in New York City the colored voters under Tammany's rule enjoy the fullest possible recognition in all departments of the various public offices of the greatest city in the nation.
When the contest with our good natured but unappreciated governor of California was the colored constituency, they knew not except for the per cent support given by Governor Discimond by the Colored voters of California
SHOT HIS BOLT.
Do you know that up to this minute that the governor has absolutely failed to take cognizance of the fact as stated above or has he in any other way demonstrated that he would give any sort of recognition to those of our group who lined up for him?
Do you know that the governor was the beneficiary of the debacle from former Governor Stephens and that he still "fiddles while Rome burns."
We entertain for the governor, highest possible personal regard. We appreciate his acquaintance and his rare good nature, but we cannot sit idly by without expressing our opinion of his total disregard and lack of appreciation for all peoples in proportion to the service they have rendered unto him. We must point out that there is only one way for the persons who have been denied and that way is by way of the ballot. When the governor needs you next time give unto him what Governor Stephens received and keep up the good work and surely some day there will arise a governor who will not hesitate to be the governor for all the people and shall give unto all classes of his constituency, due recognition.
EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the first of ten articles to appear in this paper on the Cleveland Convention to be written by Melvin Chiam, field secretary of the National Negro Press Association and Eastern Representative of this paper. These articles will appear consecutively until finished. We urge Eagle readers to keep up with this story from the prolific pen of this prolific writer who was on the acre and who is always in the front ranks looking out for the interests of his race.
THE MAKING OF HISTORY
Washington, D. C., June 24—It will be impossible for the historian of the future who essays to write the history of the Republican Party to leave out the Negro and the battles which the Negro of the nation have been compelled to fight in order to destroy that political parasite of the Southland known as the lily-white, that breed of southern politician which has been whipped out of the Democratic Party in the South and who has turned to the Republican Party for revenue only.
THE LILY-WHITE THING
Since the passing of the great Mark Hanna, this ill-y-white Republican, for the revenue only, has buckled on his armour every quadrenium, went forth and battled the Black Republicans of the South, and for twelve long years the Black Republicans of the South have seemingly fought an altogether losing fight, with one single exception, the Black of Georgia led by that imittable indefatigable lawyer Henry Lincoln Johnson and fighting Ben Davis though with bowed and bloody heads have held their own through all the years, for the illies started on Georgia and Texas Negroes first, back in 1900.
The illy-white would have a Republican Party exclusively white, contrary to the spirit of the Constitution. The blacks are striving to keep and perpetuate soundness in the Republican Party by having it exclusively American, without regard to color, without regard to class, without regard to religion—within the purview and Intent of the Constitution.
WILLIAM M. BUTLER THE JUST Shakespeare wrote of the idees of March and I, of the idees of November. It was in November, 1923 this writer accompanied Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson, Messrs. Walter Ackerman, Clint W. Hager and the matchless Col. Clark Grier for a conference over the then forthcoming meeting of the National Committee in December, when the question of the reduction of Southern delegates to the Republican National Convention was to be settled. We did most of the talking (Mr. Butler is a man of few words, as are most men of power and greatness) Mr. Butler satisfying himself with asking questions, but the very nature of Mr. Butler's questions, made plain that he thoroughly grappled the whole situation. At the close of our conference Mr. Butler asked this writer a question more significant than any of the other questions, this writer answered fully and frankly. Mr. Butler made no promises further than to say "Gentlemen, I understand everything about this matter, I always try to be fair."
But there was that expression on Mr. Butler's face which said even more than his words indicate. We knew we were in the house of our friends. We knew from that moment the Negro people had a friend at Court in the person of the Honorable William M. Butler. At a conference two days later, this writer was still more convinced that not only had the Negro a firm friend in Mr. Butler, but that he was not the sort of man with whom the professional Negro baiter would have any success.
LET ME DESCRIBE MR. BUTLER
In size of almost giant proportions,
well-shaped symmetrical head; finely
chiseled face; eyes which look square
through you at a glance, but kindly
withal; Mr. Butler is calm of manner,
that sort of person who might be
expected to inquire, after a brass
band has passed and all returned to
work in confusion "What is it all
about?" Mr. Butler is at once robust,
suaive (a perfect Chesterfield), sagacious,
dignified; a man of the supreme common sence and Square to the last full measure.
OF THE CONTEST AT CLEVELAND
Henry Lincoln Johnson to the far,
requared Mr. P. Keeling, National
Committeeman for Indiana and a host

cause why the Phillips contingent

CHICAGO POLITICAL CAPITOL
Chicago, June 25, 1924. (By the Associated Negro Press) Chicago is the Republican political capitol of the Nation. William M. Butler, of Massachusetts, who has succeeded John T. Adams, of Iowa, as chairman of the Republican National Committee has announced officially that the headquarters of the campaign will be in Chicago, with branches in New York, Los Angeles, and possibly Washington. The famous Wrigley building, just across the Chicago river on Michigan Boulevard, will be the headquarters of the committee, and Mr. Butler will spend much of his time in Chicago.
Roy B. West of Chicago, who has been named Secretary of the committee, succeeding George R. Lockwood of Indiana, will function, according to information, in a more active in management than did his predecessor. This doubtless, is due to the fact that West is a political strategist of the first water. He knows the game from Augusta, Ga., to Zaneville, Ohio, and that's that. How is the racial vote to be appealed to? It is a "safe and sane" bet that Colored America will be more in the political limelight this 1924 than in any other previous year of our Lord. The reason is obvious, and be (Continued on Page 12)
