ATTENTION FLORIDIANS ATTENTION FLORIDIANS To all persons who once lived in the Sate of Florida:— You are specially requested to meet in Mass Meeting, Monday evening, July 21st, at the Parish Hall, 1527 Paloma Street, in rear of St. Phillips Episcopal Church, at 8:30 o'clock p. m. for the purpose of reorganizing the Florida Club. Let me remind you of the great good that can be accomplished by connecting yourself with your State organization, not only will it assist you in a social way to come in touch with many good people from your home state, it will assist you in case of need and distress. It will assist the strange ones coming into our midst in finding work and employment: It will assist you financially when you might fall sick and in great distress and need. All of these things and more the Florida Club did when it was inexistence, and active. We desire to do more and greater things if you who once lived in that old State will give us your co-operation and assistance. Some are ashamed that they once lived there, some are afraid to allow any one to know that they once lived in the South, for my part, I have nothing to be ashamed of for since having lived there, through the prejudice and unjust discrimination aimed at my people, as I worked and labored with them there, I see a greater opportunity to work and labor with them here, as when you look around and view the condition of our group as they are arising each day in Los Angeles. I feel here here that if we hope to live here and live as other American citizens, we must close ranks and get together. Come to the meeting let us have a grand old Florida get together as we did once in the old State. Atty. C. H. ALSTON, Pres MATCHLESS YOUNG ORATOR Young Mr. Satchell Morris, Jr., lived up to his reputation as the matchless orator, when he greeted the people in large numbers at Beth Eden Baptist Church, Tuesday evening. After a rendition of several very pleasing musical numbers by the Choir of Beth Eden Church, Rev. Brown introduced Dr. Francis, pastor of the First Baptist Church (white) of this city, who paid quite a tribute to the father of Mr. Morris, Jr. and stated that it gave him a distinct honor to present the speaker at this time. Of course the far-famed W. Satchell Morris, Jr., whose fame had preceded him was the magnate which brought the people there and all were keyed up for the treat of oratory which they received. To say that Morris made good is putting it mildly for he lived up absolutely to all expectation. As an orator he has everything and as an age improves him he will always be right up in the front rank of men who represent the race at the bar of public opinion. If you have not heard this young giant go out next Sunday at 3 P. M. at the Beth Eden Church, 27th and Paloma and hear him on his masterpiece: "The Measure of a Man." and President of the National Baptist Convention, inc., will preach Sunday morning, August. — All are welcome. Distinguished Visitor We have in our midst at this time Prof. Cole cf St. Louis, Mo., who is one cf the race's outstanding figures in the realm o eduction. For forty-seven years Prof. Cole has been alive as an educator in church and school. He is principal of Simmons Public School and dean of St. Louis Teachers Corps, was for nine years pastor of the First Baptist Church of St. Louis. PROF. R. H. COLE, A. M., D. D. Prof. Cole is enjoying a much needed vacation and rest visiting old friends in this city. It is greatly regretted that Los Angeles' citizens will not be permitted to hear Prof Cole in lecture during his stay here. EFFICIENCY HAND LAUNDRY A. S. Hightower and his good partner, Mrs. Hightower who conducts the Efficiency Hand Laundry at 1613 E. 52nd street, are shining examples of what can be accomplished along the line of production if only undertaken after qualifying to do the thing which they undertake. Mr. Hightower by years of service with Laundry companies and with laundry machinery, came to the conclusion that he could, by starting out in a small way, become a producer of efficient laundry service. He started, he at first met with reversed, but at an age of less than two years existence this laundry now employs nearly a dozen persons. It is equipped with modern machinery and its deliveries are made in one of the best laundry delivery trucks in the city. Mr. Hightower makes the statement that there are no heights too high for the Efficiency Laundry to rise and it is his purpose to make the laundry one of the bright spots along the line of productolon. The Efficiency Laundry maintains a rate of at least 10 per cent less than other laundries and the work they turn out is in a class by itself, for superior workmanship and service. Mr. Hightower in conversation with an Eagle reporter said that it was his ambition to erect a real laundry for Los Angeles and every dime earned was being put right back into the business. He declared that he does not ask to be financed, all he asks is support and patronage, and watch the Efficiency Laundry grow. Knights And Daughters Of Tabor Hold Grand Session Knights And Daughters Of Tabor Hold Grand Session The Annual Grand Session of the Grand Temple and Tabernacle, Knights and Daughters of Tabor, International Order of Twelve, was convened in Grant Chapel A. M. E. Church, Watts, California, on Tuesday, July 1, 1924. The session was called to order by the C. G. M. Sir W. J. J. Byers of San Francisco, California, at 10 o'clock. The necessary committee were appointed to carry on the work and the greatest session in the history of the jurisdiction was under way. The annual address of the G. C. M. Sir W. I. J. Byers and the G. H. P. Dtr. Dorena Flewellen were fine presentation of the work, and showed a grasp that was worthy, in every way, of the positions they fill. They showed a great amount of work done, and the progress of the order during the year and the reports were well received by the delegates present. The report of the Grand Chief Scribe showed that in Temples, Tabernacles, Tents, Royal Houses there were 1120 members, distributed as follows: Temple, 180; Tabernacles, 424; Tents, 360, and Royal Houses, 156. These bodies paid into the Grand Session treasury during the year in grand dues and assessments $444.20. There was an increase of one body during the year, a Royal House being set up at Watts. The Grand Queen Mother, Dtr. Sadie L. Alexander, made her report, covering in detail the work of the Tents during the year. She reported a total of eleven Tents, doing a splendid work throughout the jurisdiction. The Grand Presiding Prince, Sir Warren Woods, made his report covering the work of the Royal Houses of the jurisdiction. There was an increase of one body in this department, which brought the total to three. The Burial Fund Secretary, Dr. Eliza Warner, made the report for this department. It showed a balance on hand of $1,717.20, with obligations outstanding of $375. These were ordered paid. The expenses of the department for the year were $98.61. This left a balance in the treasury of the Burial Fund of $1,243.59. The Secretary of the Death Benefit Department, Sir J. E. Walton, made his report. It showed twelve claims paid during the year, totaling $2,425. The total amount of money received during the year from Temples, Taboracles and Tents was $2,324.24. The running expenses of the department were $267.38. There was in the treasury, with all claims against the treasury paid, a balance of $4,537.89 to care for the future needs of the work. This department, something over three years old, has made wonderful progress, and is building up a fund, ample in every way to care for the future needs, and the ever increasing needs of the department. The report of the Death Benefit Treasurer, Sir R. A. Johnson, verified in every way the report of the secretary. These officers deserve the commendation of the entire jurisdiction for the very e_client way in which they have handled the funds of the department and looked after the interests of the jurisdiction. These officers carry a surety bond with a responsible company. A brilliant reception was tendered the delegates on Tuesday evening. Welcome addresses were delivered by the mayor of the city, Mr. Mannus Rev. Skinner and Sir Goram. In words that rang they welcomed us to (Continued on page 5) GIVE BANQUET IN HONOR OF VIS IT OF MIGH POSTAL OFFICIAL TO CITY HON. JOHN D. GAINEY John D. Gainey, personal-representative to the Postmaster General of the United States of America, can not go away from his brief visit in our midst and say that the people of Los Angeles are slow to show their appreciation and high regard for the exalted position which he holds. With only a few hours notice a most pretentious banquet was, arranged for and held at the rooms of the Appomattox Club on East Ninth Street, and with the service of the famous Thistle Cafe. It was one of those spontaneous affairs which was partaken in all of its fulness by each and every person present. There was no part of the evening which was not enjoyed most highly. From the music, the menu and the various addresses and the highly illuminating colorful and inspiring address of the honored guest, John D. Gainey. To listen to Gainey you are forced to be impressed, his sincerity is undoubted and unquestioned. The story of his climb from the lowest rung in the service to the heights is a wonderful one that cannot help but inspire. He was here on official business for the Post Office Department, but his presence became known and friends soon decided to give him a reception and it turned out to be a genuine ovation tendered by representative citizens of all classes. The Hon. Dr. E. C. Nelson, leading and moving spirit in all things which tend toward progress, was the toastmaster and happily indeed did he fill thisitch. The following persons responded to toasts: Dr. Albert Bauman; Percy Buck, J. W. Barefield; Atty. H. M. Broyles; C. E. McKinney; Hon. Frederick M. Roberts; and then the honord guest of the evening was introduced by J. B. Bass, editor of this paper. He was received with great acclaim and enthusiasm. His remarks were closely listened to and were interesting to the highest degree and not one who was present regretted for one moment their presence there. Mr. Gainey stands as the spokesman for 22,000 of our group in the U.S. Postal Service. His advice to those workers is to be loyal to the service and courteous to the public, and they will continue to maintain the high rating they have received on account of their efficiency and conscientious service. His recital of the outstanding achievements of the race in the Postal Department came in for most hearty BAPTIST CHAUTAUQUA IN SESSION JULY 23 TO 31 Following his unprecedented success at Beth Eden Baptist in Los Angeles, Charles Satchlee Morris, the uncrowned king of the American platform, will speak at the Y. M. C. A. on Marengo Avenue. Thursday evening, July 24th under the auspices of Club No. 11. Mr. Morris is the great grandson of Frederick Douglas, a student in the University of Chicago, and one of the most eloquent lecturers on the American platform. Everywhere he has spoken he has been acclaimed as second to none among contemporary public speakers. Combining as second to none among contemporary public speakers. Combining historical background with forceful expression, Morris stands out as a polished speaker of the most accomplished type. This lecture is being sponsored by Club No. 11 for the benefit of the building fund of Friendship Baptist Church. Everyone is urged to purchase tickets early, so as to embrace this opportunity to hear one of the most brilliant lecturers of our times. Tickets are fifty cents: Reserved seats for seventy-five cents. applause, particularly when he said: "In the Postal service today there are 22,000 members of the race employed and among that number is a superintendent of a station in New York where the Postal savings in one year amounts to one one and one half million dollars. A chief examiner in the Indianapolis postoffice, an assistant superintendent in the general postoffice in New York and a clerk in charge in Cincinnati postoffice. The fact that aroused the most interest was the information given to the effect that Miss Ethel Drayton, a colored railway postal clerk, was the fastest mail distributor in the United States. Chief Clerk Gainey was appointed a little over a year ago for the specific purpose of adjusting grievances arising in the railway mail service, but his extraordinary qualification attracted the attention of other department heads in the postal service, so now he is the representative of the 22,000 colored men and women working in every department of the post office department. Chief Clerk Gainey was born and reared in Savannah, Ga. After the address Mr. Gainey shook hands and danced with the guests. The following co-operated as hosts for the above occasion; J. B. Bass, Morris Harris, W. H. Sanders, Dr. A. Bauman, Dr. E. C. Nelson, F. G. White, J. D. Edwards, E. L. Dorsey, W. R. Wills, Noah D. Thompson, J. E. Prowd W. O. Tyler, Percy Buck, E. C. Jennings, C.

Parson, Cliff Sewall, W. R. Jordan, W. U. Spences, G. G. Dorssey, J. L. Olivier, W. H. Holoman, S. P. Dones and Leon Riley. Mr. Galnes left Tuesday evening for the North, while here he was the guest of Br. Albert Bauman, an old friend of many years standing. He also met many other old time friends here among whom were W. H. Sandera Charles Olivier and J. B. Bass.

Hello Jimmie:— I guess you know ere now that we are here for the summer. This is, our eighth week, and we are running in tip tip shape, "In Bamville" is really hot now, and we are due to open one season at the Kinchackerbacker theatre, 39th and Broadway, N. Y., Aug. 18th. Are you coming East this summer? Boston is crowded this week with visitors, as the white Elks are holding their convention here. Boston is ideal in the summer. I hope everything's OK. With you and the staff. Mrs. Browning johns me in sending best regards to everybody. Drop me a fine here. Best wishes, for continued success. IVAN H. BROWNING. Sisale & Blake Take Boston By Storm That Sissie and Blake in their new musical offering, "In Bamville," have taken Boston's amusement public by storm is attested by each performance during the past month at the Tremont Theatre where this production is now in its second month. "In Bamville" is a credit from every standpoint to our race. A fortune has been spent upon the two acts and twelve scenes. The sponsor of the latest effort of those co-author stars, Sissie and Blake, is Bert C. Whitney, who has given to the American public many genuine successes in the musical comedy line and who is best known for his sumptuous presentation of "The Chocolate Soldier," Ed Wynn, "The Perfect Fool," and others. Neither money nor pains has been spared in making "In Bamville" the most pretentious and colorful musical comedy production seen in years. The Boston presentation proceeds the New York premiere scheduled for late August at a prominent Broadway theatre. The large cast of Dizie Funnies includes the stars. Sissie and Blake, Johnny Hodgins, Lew Peyton, Lottie Gee, Josephine Baker, Valada Snow, Elizabeth Welsh, "Dancing Charlie" Davis, Amanda Randolph, W. A. Hamm, William Grundy, Inez Clough, Ivan H. Browning, Russell Smith, Fred Robinson, George Jones, Jr., Curtis Carpenter, Richard Cooper, Percy Colston W. H. Berry, Mildred Smallwood, Lloyd Keyes, The Bamville Opera House Band, the Sissie and Blake Symphony Orchestra, and a chorus of beautiful brunettes which is by far the largest and peoptest seen in many a moon. It required four extra length baggage cars and five sleepers to transport the company of over one hundred and twenty-five people. At the Piano . . . Eubie Blake Mandy Green . . .

Randall "Feet-gimnie some mo' speed" is the thrue of the dark opera, "In Bamville", which Noble Sissle and Euble Blake are presenting at Ford's this week. The difference between light opera and dark opera is not so much a matter of color as of motion. Sissle and Blake's hired boys and girls don't do much standing around. Neither do they do any hesitating. When they are out there on the stage the sheep moving—moving everything they own. Those "high yaller" steppe can go more ways than a centipede; their feet travel west, their arms south, their shoulders north, their knees east, while their middles just keep moving around the combs. It truly is a treat to see these coloured players do their stuff. There's no napping, no acting cute, no hot dog. The games enter into their work with enthusiasm and one can see that with them it is a labor of love. Unlikelyly their enthusiasm reacts on the evidence as last night's listeners understand a perfect hour of approval. "In Hamille" his about as much use for a plot as an old-time farmer but for a pair of garters, but there is one more thing has something to do with horse race. This leads a treadmill scene at the end of the first act, which shows a horse race a in "Bent Bar." The human being in "In Ham Paint ville" go as fast as their legs can carry them, but Sissie and Blake apparently wanted some more speed, so they staged this horse race. The music for "In Bamville" is, next to its dancing, its brightest feature. "Dixie Moon" is a pretty tune, as is "All the Wrong You've Done me", "Million Little Cupids in the Sky", and "I'll Find My Love in Dixie". One scene which started the audience thumping was that in which Sissie and Blake present songs which they have written, including the rattling good tune, "Tim Just Wild About Harry". Nubble Blake can tickle a piano until it giggles with ectacity. Lew Payton and Johnnie Hudgins handle the main comedy roles and keep the crowd cackling. That Hudgins man is a dancing food. Just to make sure that you get enough entertainment, a jazz corner tist mounts the stage after the final curtain has fallen and toots a tune. Whereupon all the thin persons walk out of the theatre backwood and all the fat ones sideways. BEGIN WORK ON NEW SHOW Rehearsals will start next week for the big musical comedy that is being launched here in Los Angeles and all the work of choosing the talent for the show will soon be completed. A number of real box office attractions will be brought from the East and the names of these principals will be announced later. Local performers however, are wanted and it is advisable for them to leave their namesat the office of the Dramatic League and Cinema Auxiliary, at Twelfth and Hemlock. Good looking girls are very much in demand and whether experienced or not they can easily land a good paying position with this big production. As noted before in these columns William E. Pierson is in charge of the show and it has ample financial backing from an incorporated company. Harry Crawford Now Manager At Aud. Began As Skate Boy The New manager at the Auditorium Rink is Harry Crawford. Harry follows T. C. Carleton who formerly held that position. Crawford has been at the Auditorium since it was opened and has assisted on the floor and served as instructor. Always fond of skating since he first learned in 1899, Harry Crawford has worked in every rink that we have had on the eastside. He was a skateboy at the old rink at Fifteenth and Central and has worked up from that position step by step until he has reached the position he now holds at the auditorium. Harry does a number of stunts on skates and holds most of the skating speed records. HUMMING BIRD CAFE HUMMING ALONG AT LIVELY PACE The Humming Bird has outgrown its cage. During the past week carpenters have removed the back wall to the rear of the lot and when the new sidewalks are put up and the ceiling completed the Humming Bird will be twice nts present site. At present the Humming Bird is packed to its capacity every night and on many occasions patrons have been turned away. In addition to the original entertainers, Ross an old favorite is doing the comedy work. Ross dropped in Seattle last Friday and started to work Friday night. The Quality Four continues to be a leading attraction and keeps up to date with novelty numbers and costumes. The Quality Four is undoubtedly the finest Cafe orchestra that ever performed in this section of Los Angeles. If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened By John A. Gray There is perhaps less attention paid to foundation work than to any other phase of teaching in the students career. It seems that both teacher and pupil are in a hurry to get to the top before they have firmly laid the foundation for the bottom. Such preparation may allow the pupil to achieve a certain amount of success but in the long run he will be unable to keep moving and hold his own. For example, the instrumentalist should know all the scales, arpeggios, chords etc., in their various positions, and should understand phrasing, accenting, style, dynamics, etc, in order that he may play with more ease and freedom. The vocalist should know thoroughly the art of breathing, a correct method of tone production, placmen et, and the technic of singing in general. Many good voices are ruined by the incorrect way in which they are used. While the modern systems of teaching are very good in most cases, nearly all of them stress the theoretical side and not the applied side. To make cour meaning clear, we shall take for instance the scales. Many teachers show the pupil how the scale is formed, from whence it originated, the different kinds of scales, and require the pupil to write scales of all kinds, etc. This is all very good and is excellent from a theoretical point. Yet, these same pupils play very few scales and then in a very simple way, without knowing nor understanding the position, weight or condition of the hands and arms, nor of the correct muscular movements that will enable them to play rapidly and easily. The result is, they are able to play glibly, recite the history, formation and classification of scales, yet are not able to play them well. While we recognize the importance of the theoretical side we also realize the necessity of the applied side. If the student is a performer he should know how, as well as be able to do the scales. To be able to play the scales rapidly, clearly and evenly, one does not necessarily have to know how they are made. The better system is to train the pupil to do a thing first, afterward, he may learn how it is made, its past history, etc. A child of ten or twelve years may be able to play a Beethevon sonata well, from a musical and technical standpoint, but he will be twice or thrice that age, or may never know how it is made. The point we wish to prove is that a correct foundation from the applied side means the knowledge of how to do a thing, coupled with the actual ability to do it. After this is accomplished the theoretical side may be emphasized. Vocalists are taught the meaning of a song, its emotional content, its climaxes, its phrasing, etc., but not the best way of making a tone on a certain vowel sound at a certain pitch. Th wword "love" sung at the pitch of middle C requires a different position of the vocal organs and muscles of the throat from the same word sung an octave above or below. Correct foundation enables one to sing any vowel sound at any pitch, with any degree of intensity and with equal ease and freedom.

I have been trying to find time to write you ever since I arrived in Honolulu, but it seemed that I would never get a chance to do it until the present time. My company and self arrived in Honolulu and has been a continuous round of entertainments given in our honor ever since we first stepped off the steamship Calaawai. When Ragtime Billy Tucker's Darktown Follies invaded Honolulu, they set a pace that will be hard to follow by any company that ever trod upon Hawaiian soil, as the enclosed newspaper clippings will show. Waere the feature of any and all programs that we work on. We were royally entertained last week by the American Legion Post No. 1 at their club rooms and every nation under the sun was represented at that dinner. We were given a welcome that would be fitting for a king. The parties are so numerous that I am unable to say just how many have been placed for us. This is truly one place where you don't know what you are as 90 per cent of the population are dark skinned people. I have had the honor of meeting all of the high officials of Honolulu including the mayor, chief of police, and deputy fire marshal of the territory, and all of them are just as dark as I am and they treated me just as if I were one of them. There are only about 100 members of the race in Honolulu and we have made friends of them all. The climate over here is extremely warm or rather hot and a peculiar thing about the women, most of them go barefooted. It is nothing unusual to se women dressed in the height of fashion going to church or to the theatre barefooted, some very few wear Chinese sandals, while others wear a wooden shoe with just two straps across the top, with not a sign of a stocking or sock, they go all over town that way. Most of the men dress just as we do, only the middle class and natives, they never wear a shirt or shoes, only an undershirt. Music is the principal form of entertainment. They sarenade you morning, noon and night, you go to sleep by their music, you dance by their music, you baxing, purifies, as we term it they nave what you call a "Luan" (pronounced "Lew-ow") where they serve a drink called "pol" and a drink called "oak" and "swipe". The "swipe" is just the same as vinegar. The "pol" is just the same as cream of wheat. They also serve raw fish. You are never refused service at any of the higher class hotels or cafes and everyone greets you royally. All of the police department are of dark complexion and you never know what nationality the other fellow happens to be unless you hear him talk. All of the high positions are held by men of the darker race and anything you are big enough to do over hers you have a chance to display your ability. Every race man on the islands in in business for himself, or holding some responsible official position and is recognized as a leader of the territory. One man in particular is a retired soldier, Segeant W. Hawkins, who conducts a Taxi Stand and has something like 25 or 30 cars, all of a high grade, he also owns considerable property on the islands, and above all he has the largest place of its kind on the islands. he is a regular fellow' and success has not turned his head. Another progressive retired soldier is Geo. Williams, who has charge of Alaho Park in the City of Honolulu, he is formerly of Chicago, but hasn't been off the islands for the past 15 years. He is foreman and supervisor of the largest amusement parks here. Many others are doing just as well, but at the present time will not permit me to name them all, but will tell you more about them and the Hawaiian islands in my next letter. My company includes Fulton Alexander, Billy Moore, Walter "Coot" Cox, Jas. H. Jacksen (Black and Tan Jackson), Christene Alexander, Dolores Tucker, Dorothy Yoes, Jessie Reese, Johnnie Maventon, "Chick" Moore, and three white musicians. We have proven a riot everywhere we played, and it gives me consolation to know that a gang from Los Angeles is the first to teach the Hawaiians the modern jazz.

THE FOOL AND THE AUTOMOBILE An automobile in the hand of a fool is one of the most dangerous problems confronting the human race today. Substantiating evidence of the truth of such an assertion is constantly before us in the great number of accidents and deaths caused by immediately setting about to make a record for themselves. The situation which presents itself would not be so bad rather it would be a blessing if the accidents simply resulted in injuring or killing the fool alone, but no such thing takes place. It is the poor unsuspecting innocent law-abiding driver or citizen that receives the hospital or undertakers tag and the fool generally escapes from the scene to again resume the pastime of making our thoroughfares and highways unsafe to everyone including themselves. The automobile is today an asset in that it is depended upon by all classes that it assist in their daily routine whether business or pleasure- and since such is a fact the sooner the fool is disposed of the use of this instrument the better it will be. Anything that you can do to put this animal permanently away, don't hesitate to do it, and by taking such a step who knows but that you may not only be the instrument of saving the life of someone from being prematurely shoved off the earth, but also the medium through which happiness may be brought to your own threshold in that you may wind your way wherever you choose without having to worry about meeting the fool.

P. donee But if the watchman sees the eon os ‘blow not the trumpet an ‘the (be not warned; \ if*- the sword come any person from among nae to taken away-'in bis iniquity; ‘but his blood will I require ate ‘Watehman's hand, Ezekiel 33: In ancient times cities were. buil with walle. Sometimes they ‘are, 6 buflt now. But Isiah sal dthat “salva tion, wouldGod appoint for: walls and ‘bulwarks”. Isa, 26:1. So where the re Ugion ot Jesus prevails there are n< ‘walls about the cities..And theng cities where the religion of Jesus is taught, sprawl themselves: over the land and are safer than: the cities which once had walls. Some say this is the re sult of the advance of ctvilization. True enough, but it is that feature of civilization that keeps the conscience alive; that teaches men that ther eis a future life; and that they must do unto others‘as they would have others do unto them. In other words it fs the watchmen of Zion that watch unto prayer and preach righteousness, that warh see sin, that teach the fear ‘of God, that are the real safe guards of the cities. Upon these ancient city walls were watch towers. In these toweds men were placed who were to"kecp a vigi- lant eye diligently upon the surround- ing country to see if an cnemy ‘was approaching; to see if a marauding band or invading army were approach- ing. The gates of the cities were left open that those who came to trade might go in and ont. But if the watch- man saw the sword approach, he put his trumpet to his mouth and blew a warning blast. The gates were imme- diately closed when those outside had bad a chance to come in. But if ove among those outside the wall farm- ing or aitending cattle’ or otherwise engaged, failed to take warning and flee within the walls, the approach- ing foe captured and slew him. Now sometimes this happened to more than one because the man in the watchtower could see farther than those on the ground, and they un- wisely preferred to trust their own vision; or sometimes the watchman sounded an alarm and the maraud- ing band, which they were warned against, failed to show up. Thus those watched began to believe the watchman was a false alarmist; they began to think he was seeing shadows. And sometimes in seeking faithfully to do his duty maybe he did not see shadows and give a false alarm, once in a while. But even then it were bet- ter to be on the safe side. For when the watchman sounded the alarm the gates were left open only long enough for those who were outside the gates to run in for safety. ‘Then the gates were closed and the city prepared itself for the seige or battle. ‘The watchman's responsibility then was great. He had to warn whether men heeded or not. ‘The interpretation and application of this parable is to the souls of men. It is a fearful thing for men to die in their sins. But it seems that there le dangers ahead of men that they must be warned against, so that men shall not die in their sins. The soul watchman is a tremendously, important person. His responsibility is fearful. Hebrews 13:17, “Obey them that have the rule oyer you; for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy and not with grief; for that is unprofitable for you.” ‘The soul watchman. No other man has such an awful place. The sentinel of God to guard souls against the un- seen powers of hell. No wonder Paul asked, by the spirit “Whe is sufficient unto these things?” I. But what is required of him? He must warn men not to sin. So thou, © Son of man, I have made. thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth and give them warning from me.” Listen, let ‘me tell you what to say. Then say it. + I, Whom must he warn and of what?” When I say to the wicked op ‘wicked man thou shalt surely die ‘thou dost not speak to warn the wick- ed from his way, that wicked man shall die In his iniquity; but his blood will Lrequire at thine hand”. He will not be blamed, Hf did not have "a chance, The foe caught him unwarned. But you will be held responsible for it ‘The enemy got him but the fault will Hie with you, and you must account . to God for his soul. “Nevertheless, if thou warn the wicked of his way to turn from it, { he does not turn from his way, he sball die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul.” Warn him. Don‘ mind hig attitude. You can't make him hear but warn him. Then your sow fs delivered from blood. If he hear, he 4g saved. If he fail to hear he ig lost Amen. - ‘Say unto them, as I liv esaith the Fork Sot. I have no pleasure in the of the wicked, but that the wick ae turn from. his way, and live”.

Nearly three years ago Elder William Carson came to Los Angeles, during which period he has built up a commendable work. The Apostolic Faith Home in East 33rd street, near Central Avenue, is certainly a unique proposition. It is not only a church, but also a home for many members of the church. Elder Carson aside from being a Ministering preacher, exercised his fitness as a business man for the promotion of his people.

A Trip To Manzanita Mineral Springs (By C. A. Spear Bars) On last Friday, at 5 o'clock a.m., we joined a party of persons who had been invited to make a sightseeing trip to the Manzanita Mineral Springs. This trip was suggested and made in a way which placed no obligation upon the writer in any way. We are therefore free to write what we saw and to tell what we heard. Anyhow, after a refreshing four-hour drive over the splendid roads of Southern California, we drew up at the portals of the far famed Manzanita Mineral Springs, and truly we are frank to say that we never for one moment began to think of the magnificent grandeur and general environment of this most wonderful reserve of which 155 acres is now to be turned over to members of our group for home sites, including a delightful, romantically play ground and pleasure resort. The prolific forest, and verdure assured the visitor at once of the nature of the soil and the abundance of water. The trees are not gigantic, but just sufficient for abundance of shade. Water abounds of the finest kind, and medicinal as well. The springs are famous for the remarkable cures made by those who have drunk the water therefrom. I could not overestimate the wonderful scenery of this proposed resort, and examining the opportunities offered, we are frank to say that if one is looking for peace, quietude and contentment, and at the same time his own vine and fig tree, in whose realm they can raise the good things they eat and all of the things that Mother Earth produces and nature provides, that this place is the one spot which you have been looking for. I can most heartily endorse the proposition of homestates, and the investor is surrounded with every protection to secure not only a place to reside, but a place on which, if they care to, they can absolutely make their own way. This proposed Christian community and pleasure ground is indeed worth while and worthy of your most earnest consideration. PEDROTTI AND LABOR Your paper was paid a visit during the next week by Assemblyman Joseph L. Pedrotti, Republican candidate for State Senator of the 23rd Senate- torial District, and during the visit which was a rather enjoyable one, Assemblyman Pedrotti had occasion to call to our attention an item in the local newspaper which stated as follows: "Introduced by Assemblyman Pedrotti "Bakerfield, July 2—One hundred convicts from Folsom prison arrived here today and were taken to the road camp on Kern River about fifteen miles east of here where the State highway commission is working on the new Walker's Pass highway which penetrates Kern River Canyon. The convicts were accompanied by ten guards who took them from the railroad station in automobiles." And also a very interesting article which was published in the June edition of the Sunset Magazine found on page 20, entitled "Hope For The Convict." Assemblyman Pedrotil was the author of this bill and worked very diligently for its passage and has become a law and renders the good service it evidently has as this interesting article states. "He was a strapping fellow, hard as nails. He was hard as nails physically and his attitude toward life was hard. Criminologists called him a recidivist. In prison parlance he was a three time loser. The sturdy little prison chaplain knowing the man's hard record, "call ed him out"—sought an interview. The chaplain knew the convict, not yet thirty-five, had spent twenty years of his life in reform schools, county jails and prisons. He knew that as a boy the convict had been unusually bright in school, and reformatory, was a fine student of Shakespeare. He had joined the navy, conceived a dislike for his captain and led a number of swabs in ship desertion. He had stolen automobiles, swindled employers, kitted worthless checks by the dozen, been a model prisoner, the best clerk one penitentiary ever had, led a jail break, been recaptured hundreds of miles away and now was in stripes again. "How would you like to go out to a road camp?" asked the chaplain. "Nothing doing," was the striro terse reply. "Why not?" "Because I can get all the hard work I want in prison." "But in the road camp you would have better food, more freedom and pure mountain air to breathe at night." "Nothing doing." "But your-health would be better." The prisoner's eyes blazed scornfully. "What do I want better health for? To live longer in prison? The sooner I kick off the better off I'll be." "But," argued the little chaplain "suppose you worked hard, ate better food, enjoyed better health, slept better, and, on top of all that, received wages for your labor?" This conservation occurred about a year ago. Since then a new order of things has come to pass in the lives of California's convicts. Hundreds of them are toiling today in prison camps, building roads for the California Highway Commission, supporting themselves, putting something by against the day when they shall be restored to the free world, on parole or as men who have paid in full their debt to the state. They are building highways in remote districts, at a cost less than the work could be done by free labor. The little prison chaplain who had the talk with the hard boiled convict is Dr. Julian H. Alco. He is a volunteer prisoner worker, receiving nothing for his services but the satisfaction it gives a man to know he is helping his fellow men. Convicts by the hundred have been employed in prison road camps in California since 1915, but it was not until August, 1923, that the state began paying them wages. One state prison today has a waiting list of 500 men who have asked the privilege of being sent to the road camps at hard labor. There its a similar list of applicants at the other penitentiary. And it is hard labor. The men work eight hours a day six days a week, in sunshine or rain, swinging picks and shovels, operating drills, setting off blasts, performing the tasks of camp life. In prison, despite the furniture factories, the jute mills, the rock quarries and other tasks, there is too much inactivity. Idleness is a curse. In Folsom prison Dr. Alco recently asked a convict what his chief occupation was. "Being counted six times a day," was the answer. There were hundreds of others in the same boat, headed for nowhere and getting there fast. Lack of incentive to work is the great curse of prison existence. In prison ignorance is rampant. The food is coarse. The confinement is oppressive. The atmosphere is dispiriting. Conniving and plotting go on all the time. The treatment brings the worst side of the average person to the surface. He feels every man's hand is against him. Incentive to make something of himself too often is lacking. Instead of reforming he too frequently degenerates. After years of work among the convicts of California's two penitentiaries, Dr. Alco felt convinced that something was lacking. An incentive to go straight. An opportunity. Correcting the System The man who is paroled from prison does not go forth until there is a job awaiting him, an employer who knows his record and is willing to take a chance. But the man who serves out his full time is released with nothing in prospect, unless he has been able to find something for himself through experience or friendship on the outside have provided for clothes, a pair of prison shoes, and five dollars in cash. Thus equipped, he is expected to return to the world and make good. The average employer or is reluctant or afraid to employ an ex-convict. If the ex-convict tells the truth, he finds it almost impossible to secure employment. If he flees, he is almost sure to be found, soon or late. And the police, as a class, hates the convict as the convict hates the police. It became clear to Dr. Alco as he learned the histories of thousands of convicts that this system was, all wrong. Give a man something to strive for, he argued, show some faith in him, convince him that every martyrs' hand was not turned against him, and he would show response. The prison road camps had been in operation for seven years. They were better than the prisons, but something was lacking. Except for better food, more freedom, better health, the men were paroled or discharged from the prison camps no better off than the prisons. They were producing, but not for themselves. Obviously, a convict needed encouragement. But that never had been a part of the prison system. It always had been the prison theory that what a man needed was punishment, not assistance. He needed more than the five dollars given him when he walked through the prison gates. Then, if he failed to find employment the first day out, he would not be forced to beg, borrow or steal. There was the man's family to be considered also. The minute a family man is sent to prison his dependents begin to suffer. This system not only punishes, discourages and hardens the average convict, but it injures the innocent. These phases of criminology and penology and many others were mulled over in the little chaplain's mind for months. A plan gradually assumed form. It was something altogether new in penology. Pay the convict who produced. He discussed it with everyone sufficiently interested to lend ear. One or two of the prison directors, he found, already were in favor of paying the road camp convicts. The governor promised to ratify the bill if it were passed. The highway commissioners promised hearty cooperation. Through their combined efforts the bill to pay convicts for road work became law. The act provides that the convicts assigned to the prison road camps shall be treated by the Highway Commission as employees rather than as prisoners. It removes the prisoner entirely from the jurisdiction of the warden of the penitentiary, except that the warden has certain representatives in camp in the form of guards. But the status of the guard is as changed as is that of the convict. His one purpose in camp is to maintain discipline. There are so few guards that they cannot restrain the convicts from running away; very few do run away. The guard is a sort of human tax. His salary is paid by the convicts. They protest against this burden; but authority regards taxation as a necessary evil. The fact that the convicts pay the salaries of the guards is hardly an inducement to keep the former in camp. But the present prison road camp law has a more efficacious restraint than any number of guards to keep the men in bounds. It is the word of the convict. Before any convict is sent from prison to a road, camp he must give the warden his written promises that he will not run away. If a man breaks his word and escapes from his camp, his punishment it recaptured is severe—at least, from his viewpoint. And generally he is recaptured. He loses all his time credits—and the man in the road camp not only receives pay, but he works himself free in less time than the man in prison. The recaptured road camp convict is returned to prison to serve out the full time of his sentence. But that is not all. If he runs away he works a hardship on all his fellows in camp. The minute a man is missed a reward of $200-for his capture is posted. The rewar dis paid whether he is caught or not, paid by the rest of the convicts in the camp from which he escaped. Each man is charged a pro rata of the burden. If there are 200 men in camp, each man is assessed one dollar of his earnings. Nor is that all. What sum a man has saved out of his road camp earnings he forfeits. It is turned into the camp maintenance fund. With the exception that he may not drink or gamble, must be in bed by 9 o'clock at night, may not stray beyond camp bounds, the read building convict leads very much the same life as the average laborer in the average construction camp. But he eats better food than the average man on a construction job. He has a large variety of wholesome food and as much as he wishes. He is charged the actual cost of his three daily meals, which is ten to fifteen cents a meal less than the free men in camp have to pay. They eat of the same meals at the same time under the same conditions, and pay forty cents-per meal. The California road camp convict working under the new law is not only a producer, he is self-supporting. He earns $3.10 a day every day he works, and he is allowed a credit out of his earnings of a maximum of seventy-five cents a day. The money is not handed over to him while he is in camp. There he is not permitted to have any money. Free men in camp are not permitted to pay him do then washing or other work. What he saves is credited to his account and he is paid upon his discharge or parole. Out of his earnings of $2.10 a day the convict maintains himself. He not only pays for his meals and lodging, the salaries, of his guards, maintenance of the camp, but in addition he clothes himself from head to foot, buys his own soap, powder, tobacco and the other things he needs. The camp commissary carries everything it is considered a man really requires, and the convict may buy nothing else. Everything is sold to him at actual cost laid down in camp. The Highway Commission buys shrewdly and the convict can get shoes, shirts, overalls, underwear and other necessaries cheaper than he could buy the same things for cash in the big cities. It has been found that the camp conduct of the man who has been caught wrong two, three or four times, generally speaking, is better than the conduct of the first offender. He has been subjected to prison rules and discipline for so long, knows what he may and may not do so well, has such a dread of losing his privileges that, when confidence is placed in him and he is given an opportunity to beat back, he is very careful of his step. As this is written the convicts in the California prison camps have earned $25,000 and have saved $13,000. The men are allowed to apportion two-thirds of their savings to those dependent on them. This helps to relieve the burden placed on the innocent sufferers, by the incarceration of the bread-carner of the family. The population of the prison road camps are as mixed as the prison populations. In one camp the writer found a man serving a five-year sentence for the cashing of a check for $2.30 with sufficient funds in bank to meet it. He was working alongside a man serving a life sentence for murder. Of the two men, the murderer seemed the more resigned, less dangerous. The five-year man felt that a terrible wrong had been done him. It is the convict in that frame of mind who is more apt to boil up and run away then the man whose offence has been great and who feels his punishment might easily have been far worse. Because conditions in the prison camps are better than in the prisons, the men almost without exception are happier. They work harder than in prison as they see something including to them for their effort. They are learning self-reliance and the satisfaction that comes from honest toll. The Highway Commission gains greatly by the new order of things. The prison road camps have been established only in rmt mountain districts where it would be difficult and expensive to build roads by free labor. A convict is not sent to a road camp with less than six months of his sentence remaining to be served. Therefore the superintendent is not worried by an excessive labor turnover. The men stay put until they are discharged or paroled. And in addition, the wage of the free man is more than twice that of the convict laborer. Dr. Alco is looking forward to the time when the road camp will keep the prison almost empty. He firmly believes that time is coming. The results thus far appear to justify that sanguine belief." Mr. Pedrotti during his entire terms at the State Legislature has always been the friend of the laboring person and was the author of a bill which made life much more tenable for the embryo nurse and which is now a law in the State of California. We were very desirous of Mr. Pedrotti telling us more about this bill and he promised us another visit in the near future at which time he would explain the improvements created by that bill.

NEWEASTSIDE ORDINANCE As we go to press the entries are entering the home stretch, which will make the beginning of the campaign in 1924. Next issue we will come forth with a deal of the lineup. Down in the 74th Assembly district all eyes are upon Billy Greenwood just this minute to see just what move he is about to make. Fred M. Roberts, present incumbent, is sitting tight. In the 73rd Jemmy is running so strong that somebody is getting desperate and they are said to be willing to use one or two more entries to split the big cosmopolitan vote of Jemmy. In other words they are looking for race traitors. E. T. Hubbard has filed his nomination papers as a candidate for the Assembly from the 70th district, which includes Watts and part of Long Beach. LINCOLN LEAGUE MEETING The proposed conference to be held at San Francisco August 8 and 9 is attracting intense interest. Letters are coming in from various points in the state to the effect that they will send representatives and join in the movement which means so much to our group in this state. From San Diego we get the news that they will be represented also. At San Bernardino, F. G. Hamilton writes we are with you all the way. From Riverside, Henry Gordon gives him and support. Down in the mighty Baltimore, we are at Wayne F. B. Alexander and others are lending a strong support. At Bakersfield H. S. Houston and the live wires assist the movement. Coming on up the line at Presno, Sam Bigbee, Deacon Jones, Ed Lewis and others are with the program. At Modesto, W. E. Crowe joins in, and at Stockton, J. Austin, McPherson and W. Thomas are lining up for the fray. At Sacramento, the old war horse, Rev. F. A. Hughes, Joe Brindson et al are with us all the way. From Marysville we hear and see G. W. Willson who is a live wire, and over from Woodland S. L. Hogan and Ed Gather. Vallejo sends its matchless orator, L. J. Williams, and all in the conference as stated above promises to be a stellar event and will mean much for the establishment of the race upon a firm foundation. From Los Angeles, of course, quite a galaxy of persons will go. We will in our next issues give names of delegates who will be named for the conference from this city. 229 M. B. CLAIM BLACK BENEDICT ARNOLD8 Whereas, Word has come to this organization that sinister interests have induced Mr. James G. Edmonds and Attorney M. H. Broyles to enter the Assembly race in the 73rd Assembly District in order to defeat the people's candidate, Attorney B. C. Jennings, thereby blocking the chance for a Colorde assemblyman to represent the 73rd at Sacramento, therefore, be it Resolved. That the 73rd. District Community League deplores and also condemns the action of Mr. James G. Edmonds and Attorney M. H. Broyles in standing against the chosen and accepted candidate for assemblyman for the 73rd Assembly District; and, be it further Resolved, That the 73rd District Community League pledge its undivided support to Attorney E. C. Jennings, financially and morally, and hereby urges every loyal Colored voter in the 73rdd, as a matter of Race pride, to unite with the Community League in placing Attorney E. C. Jennings in nomination at the primary election, August 26. (Signed) CLARA HULBERT (Signed) CLARA HULBERT EMMA GORDON NAOMI DORSEY E. M.

A. A. Knight. Remarks were made by the C. G. M. Sir W. J. J. Byers and the C. G. S. Sir S. M. Beane. Several very fine musical numbers were rendered by the people of the city, which were well received. At the close of the exercises the delegates were invited to the beautifully decorated reception hall, where a delightful collation was served. On Wednesday night memorial and religious services were held at the Macedonia Baptist Church. At the memorial service, in honor of our deceased members, Sir Allen and Dtr. Swanizan paid touching and beautiful tributes to those of our number who had outrun us and joined the great majority. After these services. FRANK H.

There were many things done that were of vital interest and concern to the jurisdiction. The time of meeting was changed from the first Tuesday in July to the second Tuesday in July, thus avoiding the necessity of being in session on the Fourth of July. erty and has found that it is clear of all encumbrances and is heartily recommending and indorsing R. Major J. B. Loving is also an enthusiastic booster for Eureka Villa and many other prominent people have thoroughly investigated it and after realizing the wonderful possibilities both from recreational and investment standpoints, have bought there. On July 19, Dr. Brown of Beth Eaphtis tChurch held a large picnic on the property and the owners have extended a cordial invitation to all of the churches and fraternal organization The initiation fee was set at not less than $7.50 for the Temples and $7 for the Tabernacles. This fee cares for all the preparatory requirements, and gives membership in an order that gives more for what one puts into it than any similar organization operating on the coast. There are two policies, a three hundred dollar one and a one hundred fifty dollar one, maturing in three and four years, respectively. In addition to these amounts there comes from the Burial Fund the sum of seventy-five dollars. It would take one fifty dollars to put in as much as his heirs would receive as his beneficiaries. We can do this because of the self-sacrificing devotion of those who are looking after the interests of the work. Never in the nine years of the jurisdiction has there been a better session than the one held in Watts, with the Sons of Dixon Temple, J. E. Walton, C. M., and Eureka Tabernacle, Dtr. Emma Cunningham, H. P., acting as host and hostess. They did themselves proud in their entertainment, doing everything that could be done for the comfort and convenience of their guests. Through their very excellent arrangements, Watts has established itself as a convention city comparable to any city of its size and far superior to many. The session was addressed by Sir T. B. Norman, Grand Master of the United Brothers of Friendship, and recently becoming a Taborian, holding his membership in Pride of the West Temple of Los Angeles. His address was a very fine effort, and was well received, as he pleaded for a closer relationship between these two distinctly Negro organizations. The high point of the session was reached when the session received Golden Link Tent of Watts in full regalia. The Tent was accompanied by its band, composed of boys of the Tent, organized and established through the unfiring efforts of Sir J. E. Walton, who has stood by them through thick and thin. For more than an hour these future Taborians held the session spellbound as it was entertained by them, with song, choruses, recitation, dialogue and selections by the band. It was a very great hour and will not soon be forgotten by those who were fortunate to be present. The C. G. M. in words that rang them a great tribute that found an echo in every heart. Dtr. Brooks is the Queen Mother, and has found ready help and assistance in her service from Dtr. Nettie Walton, through whose efforts the girls' drill team was organized. The installation ceremonies were held on Thursday night and was a brilliant event, with the presiding officers in full regalia. Sir S. M. Beane was the installing officer and Sir P. E. Alexander, marshall. An auto trip to all the beaches on the Fourth of July marked the close of a memorable session, and the delegates went home singing the praises of Watts, to meet in Phoenix, Arizona, in 1925. BEAUTIFUL EUREKA VILLA It is a matter of considerable satisfaction to learn of the straight-forward and above-board manner in which a group of our most prominent business, men are presenting to our group, the Eureka Villa Health Resort and Community center project. Eureka Villa is located forty miles from Los Angeles and comprises four hundred and eighty acres of beautiful level lands on which is located a large grove of cypress, sycamores, pepper, and oak trees. Ideal for picnic and recreational purposes. Mineral water in abundance is on the property and an analytical test discloses the fact that it contains properties very beneficial to those suffering from rheumatism and kindred ailments. The first unit of sixty acres has already been surveyed and staked out in beautiful 50 x 80 lots which are selling at seventy-five ($75.55). Many picnics have been held at Eureka Villa and while the property was just opened up for sale one week ago, the first unit has been very nearly sold out already. On last fourth of July, Dr. E. R. Driver of Saint's Home Holiness Church held a picnic at Eureka Villa, which about five hundred people attended. Dr. Driver has personally investigated the title to the prop- realizing the wonderful possibilities both from recreational and investment standpoints, have bought there. On July 10, Dr. Brown of Beth Eden Baptist Church held a large picnic on the property and the owners have extended a cordial invitation to all of the churches and fraternal organizations in town to hold their picnics there. The National City Bank of Los Angeles, acting as depository for all of the money received and the bank is setting aside twenty per cent of the proceeds to be turned over to the advisory board composed of twenty of the most prominent race business and professional men and women to be used for the purpose of improvements. This fact is assurance of the stability of the project. A large club house of Spanish design will be erected, the swimming pool will be started in the course of the next few weeks, play pigeon traps have already been installed, work on the tennis courts will commence very shortly and a dance pavilion in the grove has already been completed. There is dancing every Sunday and holiday and Professor J. A. Mitchell's Eureka Orchestra is furnishing the music. The Southern Pacific Railroad station is but a very short distance from the property, a school house is on the property and in short everything is ideal for a wonderful community and health resort of this nature. IN VINDICATION Editor of the California Eagle: Dear Sir:— In vindication of my character and reputation, I beg to state publicly that the charges brought against in the Stevens vs Stevens.trial were false, and without foundation. Mr. Stevens is my cousin. I visited his home as muscle teacher, and made no advances socially, save those of fered by him. I have always, and do now, respect Mrs. Willa Stevens as the wife of a cousin. Now, why Mr. Stevens drew me into this I am grievously at a loss to know. It has been and is my lot, in my profession to visit and give lessons in some of the best homes in this city, and I will leave it to them as to my conduct and behavior. There are many gods (only one true God however) and many creeds; many paths that wind and lead, but for me I hope always to stay within the ranks of the Golden Rule doing unto others as I would have them do unto me. JAMES P. WARDEN PRE- RECITAL PARTY On last Tuesday evening, July 15, mails of Elmer C. Bartlett, and their friends were entertained at the Bart lett studio with a children's party. The evening was spent in music, song and funmaking. One hundred children and their parents were present. All declared Mr. and Mrs. Bartlett to be ideal host and hostess.

We have come to the conclusion, however, that in order to have more virtue to exploit it is necessary in a manner to turn on the searchlight of truth, so the people will be able to be posted along all the various lines of procedure in Society.

RICHARDSON STILL ON THE RACK We want Governor Richardson to know that if we per chance fail to mention his ungracious demeanor toward the colored voters of California i any issue of this paper it is not because of the fact that we have forgotten his attitude or that he has relented and made good. As a matter of fact we have the governor on the rack and will keep him there until he either fishes or cuts bait on this all important proposition. We want to hold him up as a specimen of republican who absolutely refuses to recognize a loyal and faithful ally, one which meant much to him when he met the onslaughts of Stephens' supporters at the primaries two years ago. Take the entire Westren Country and if you can find one chief executive of any state, be he democrat or republican, who has not given due recognition to the Colored voters of the Commonwealth over which he presides, we will forever cease our demands upon our governor Friend Richardson. For instance take the state of Montana where in the whole state here are less than 400 votes and Governor Dixon appoints H. J. Baker of Helena to a representative position as well as other appointments. Likewise Washington, Oregon Idaho, Utah, Arizona, Colorado, Wyoming, Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas. All states with democrats and republican governors but not one has failed to give due recognition to this group. We have more votes in California than there are in nine tenths of the States mentioned. Had it not been for the support of the Colored voters to Friend Richardson at the reelection primaries two years ago, he would have lost the nomination. "We now have brass, he gives us none."

Danburg's plea for pedestrian tunnels as a means of solving the "school stop" problem is perhaps one of the most capital suggestions ever offered by anyone for the solution of Southern California's problem. It is strange that some such plan has not been offered before, for with the acceptance of it we are vouchsafed an adequate system to protect school children and at the same time expedite its movement of vehicular traffic. The traffic situation is so puzzling and its efficient supervision so vital to the safety of pedestrians hat nothing can be overlooked which offers a mere bit of relief or protection. GERMANY'S ECONOMIC STABILITY The action of the dull and relentless Poincare in expelling Germans from the Rhineland by military occupation has been reversed by Premier Herriot—a reversal that will considerably affect the relations between Paris and Berlin. It was Poincare's unavowed but clearly apparent tendency to push Germany to the wall, ignoring the cautions of prime minister MacDonald of Great Britain and defying American public opinion, which favored complete evacuation of the Ruhr, the dull and relentless Poincare was manifestly determined to impoverish German citizens of this abandoned industrial district at the point of excessive and therefore, dangerous military occupation. The removal of military barriers and the restoration of German allies to their homes, while it does not right the wrong perpetrated by Poincare, does clearly show that the attitude of Premier Herriot is one made by amity and good will. Germany's rehabilitation depends in a large measure upon the attitude and willingness to cooperate of the French foreign ministry. With Premier Herriot at the head, is it not safe to predict a timely removal of those barriers to her economic M. Wm. T.

Honorable Asa Keys, present incumbent now seeking to succeed himself as district attorney of L. A. County, has had a long and varied experience in the office under the honorable Thomas Lee Woolvine, who, when his wealth had failed rightfully caused t obe conferred the honor of district attorney on Mr. Keyes. In the pasa eighteen months Mr. Keyes has so conducted the affairs of this high office as to win the respect and confidence of the general public. This was in keeping with his former chief's prediction. Mr. Keyes has the unqualified endorsement and support of this organization for the position of district attorney.

Mr. PEDROTTI has served three terms as assemblyman from the sixty-third district.

The Giants grabbed the melee, 9 to 5 in seven innings. Neither team played the brand of ball it has in previous games, but this was offset somewhat by several brilliant plays by individuals. Tom Mooney's colored brigade had the big stick working and abused Con Elsinger's offerings in a scandalous manner for the four innings he lasted. Worden then replaced him and the Giants made no more runs. Mooney worked without much effort in the ebox, and, while he put little stuff on the ball, had the nail slingers guessing with his change of pace. The scores R. H. E.

ALL-STARS TENNIS CHATTER Tommy Reid Wins First Leg on Handsome "Eugene Walker Trophy "Sweet Juliaette" Takes Her Usual Three Queenships—Two New Clubs Organized Well friends and knockers, its lige this, we simply couldn't make the grade last week after a week of sojourning along the international line, and while to most of the populace the results of the Western Federation ofennis Clubs' Third Annual -Facing Coast Championship Tournament and Trophy Dance is already history we must unbutton the following line of "Net Dope". Biggest Success First of all folks, we took sixteen young, and ambitious athletes to San Diego which cost real money you know and Charles Legan now a member of Alpha who lives on the spot made the 17th entry to the 1924 events which is exactly the same number entered in the 1923 events in this city last year where our "Trophy Dance" was a record failure, but in San Diego the whole affair went through without a slip up and a howling success from every angle with almost two hundred souls on that wonderful Orange Lantern Ball Room floors which provoices that the annual tourney can be pulled off successfully any where on the Pacific Coast if given support. "Where shall we hold it next year?" Answer to this paper now. "Juliaette" Three more silver cups now adorn the mantle in the pretty apartment at 1562½ W. 36th Place, the home of Mr. and Mrs. James Seabrum Harris, partnership parents of one Miss Juliaette of whom the East and West are raving so much about in these days. Juliaette had seven prizes already decorating the room sufficiently for a life time and all 10 won since the 1922 championships which is to say that she won every event in which she played without losing a singles set and but three doubles sets. Tommy Smites Wendell No one was surprised when Juliaette, in the finals, defeated the two times runner-up this year and flashy commer Verna Alvis Stratten, but when in the third whirlwind round of men's singles young Thomas Reid stepped up and hornswagged Wendell Gladden out of his 1923 kingship in three sizzling sets after he had lost the first 6x4 the crowd of onlookers was forced to begin looking for their alibi bags, as they realized that a new champion was being coloned. Reed took the next two easily with his splendid driving t o Wendell's back hand winning 6x2, 6x2. But Tommy won the capital prize the far famed "Eugene Walker Trophy", a huge silver cup or rather a leg on it when in that never-to-be-forgotten final round with his 1923 vanquisher, Edward Elmer Myers in three straight nerve wracking sets after thirty-five fiercely contested games he won 6x7, 7x5, 6x1. Two Eddies Win Pair of Goblets Those two wonderfully attractive silver cups the "Castatic Country Club Trophy" or trophies, drew out the greatest net battle ever displayed by our group in the West's history. The finals in men's doubles brought Edward Nathaniel Harris of Alpha and Edward Elmer Myers of West Side and the Racqueeteers Clubs face to face with Messra. Tom Reid of West Side and Marion Foraythe of West Side and the Racqueeteers and such strategy did those struggling young athletes dish up with gritting teeth and taut nerves during three sets no pen can describe, really it was a tragedy in 29 acts of which the twin Edwards captured 20. Harris's service CARROLL GIANTS' FAILURE TO APPEAR DISAPPOINTS MANY Largest Crowd Of Season Turned Back By Locked Gates And Goodyear Park Watchman Just when baseball fans seemed to realize that baseball was being played at Goodyear Park the big blowoff came. Last Sunday without any warning to the public or the Gardena Club, which was to have been the Carroll Giants' opponents, Owner Will Carroll and his Giants failed to appear at their park. After the first Sunday the attendance has only been fair, but according to all reports had last Sunday's game been played the largest crowd of the season would have witnessed it. Gardena brought a large delegation of fans from the berry town and it seemed that the fans after spending the past week-end at the beaches had made up their minds to take baseball seriously and turn out. Manager Goodwin claims that Owen Carroll telephoned him Saturday night after nine o'clock that the game would not be played Sunday and the players were notified. The public and Gardena players as stated above were not notified. Owen Carroll did not make an appearance at the park to make any explanation or apology. No one was allowed to enter the grounds by the watchman who stood behind locked gates. It is rumored that the park rent had not been paid aloft Owen Carroll stated on Thursday-of last week that the park rent was paid in advance. At present the park is in the hands of Jasper and Washington who will endure to carry on from where Will Carroll of the Carroll Giants left off. is swiffer than the "Peerless" Bal Kemp's ever was, and when his drive landed it was a caution. His determined partner Myers at the net was deadly in the volly and killed many of Forsyth's and Reid's gunshot drives with such speed the eye couldn't follow, so they won the first leg on the two year cups 6x3, 8x6, 6x10. Men's Singles First Round—The San Diego Charles William Logan gave handsome Marion Forsyth a shocking when he nabbed the second set but finally lost 6x2, 4x6, 6x2. James Seabrum Harris, 14 years old (Juliaette the kid brother) made his maiden debut in tournament play and lost gamely to editor Clarence Ahart Brooks former men's doubled champion 6x0, 6x0. Second—While the powerful former Southern California champ, Eddie Harris was warming up, ex-Coast Gladden smacked him for a row of hen roosts in three settings 6x6, 6x2, 6x2. Reid cleaned his pal, Forsyth the 6x3, 6x1. President Eddie Carlisle had too many other things on his mind and Brooks dethroned him 6x6, 6x0, 6x2. Good matured George Johnson is accused of being in leve so naturally he lost to the high powered Myers, 6x4, 6x3. Championship round—Reid greedily grabbed the goobers out of Myers' arm for the kingship 1924, 6x7, 7x5, 6x1. Men's Doubles Carlisle and Johnson and Ked Gladden and James Harris x 12, x 11, George displayed his love for his sweetie by failing to show up so be and Carlisle defended to Myers and Harris. Reid and Forsythe dumped Logan and Brooks into sadness, x 13, x 6.3. Then Myers and Harris smacked all the championship ambition out of Reid and Forsythe x 13, x 8, x 6.0. Ladies' Singles Little Verna: Alvis Stratten, president of the Racquet Wieldere Club scrubbed up with Mme Josephine Brown the former Southern California queen x2, 6x0. Juliette Harris won the first leg on the "Tennis Organisers Trophy" by defeating Verna Straten x2, 6x1. Ladies' Doubles Nellie Magnolia Carlisle and Erma Tatum because of the latter's failure to arrive South in time were defaulted to Stratten and Joe Brown. Juliaette and Bertha May, Brown three times champions, won the pretty "Charles M. Cameron and Charles A. Black Trophy" (two cups) by out swinging Joe Brown and Stratten 6x4, 6x4. Mixed Doubles Marion Forsythe and Juliaette Harris took a tough battle from Gladden and Stratten 6x2, 7x5. Little Margurite Williams of the Raquetees made her first tourney appearance with credit matched with Georgeous Johnson but lost to Brooks and Joe Brown 6x0, 6x2. Eddie Myers and Bertha Grown for the third consecutive time made Juliaette and her partner play three sets to beat them, which always is the hardest match Juliaette experiences in each tournament. Forsythe shared in winning this year his prizes being the "Frederick M. Roberts Press Trophy" and hers the beautiful "California Eagle Trophy", both one year cups. The Inter Se Tennis Club Over a year ago the Tennis Organizers Club journeyed to San Diego and organized a band of 19 boys and girls into one tennis club which flvered less than three months later. Saturday, July 5th this writer suggested to a few of the former members to form a girl's club only, so on Sunday, July 7th, the Inter Se Tennis Club was organised at the beautiful Home of Mrs. Ursula E. Perry, 2749 Market Street who will act as chaperone for the girls who promise to do things in tennis this year. The officers are: Elizabeth Perry, president; Helotes Richardson, vice-president; Alvescue McNice, secretary; Ruth Addison, treasures and Hallie Williams, manager of publicity. Lake Elsinore Tennis Club Monday, July 7, the Lake Elsinore Tennis Club was organized at the famous Burgess Hotel, following are MUNG OUT BY JIMMIE SMITH It is tough when you have a nice clean tub of suds on Monday morning and you plunge in a bundle and the water turns inky black making the suds unfit for another bundle. That is what happened with the baseball bundle this Monday morning. For the past month I have been having trouble with that bundle and it has come in regularly every week. Some times when I thought I had hung out a very clean washing somebody would come along and throw dirt on the wash as it hung on the line. Those who have been throwing dirt have succeeded in their efforts and the owner of the baseball bundle, Will Carroll, left one last dirty bundle of his own and took to the woods. I say Mr. Carroll has gone to the woods meaning that he has not appeared on the scene since the middle of the week. Neither Mr. Carroll or his ball club appeared Sunday when they had a very important engagement at Goodyear Park. That nonappearance probably spelled the doom of the Carroll Giants. The players were ready to play Sunday but were advised not to go to the park by the owner. I hope that statement will relieve the players of any responsibility. Lennie Goodwin has been around every day since Monday but the whereabouts of one Will Carroll remains a secret. No doubt he will return because he has several very important obligations that should be taken care of. Then again after all Mr. Carroll has said and done, we hate to believe him a 'quitter'. Now that I have dumped the dirty suds I shall continue with another bundle. Let's hope this bundle does not turn out like the above one, dirty in spite of all the trailing. John Jasper will take up where Carroll left off. Next Sunday he brings his team to Goodyear Park and their term of residence is decided by a written lease according to Mr. Jasper's statement. Where Mr. Carroll failed Mr. Jasper expects to succeed. It is up to the public to support him as long as he shoots straight. We believe Mr. Jasper will. Don't let last Sunday's disappointment keep you away from Goodyear Park this Sunday. Just a line about the man who gets all of the abuse and none of the praise at the ball game—The umpire. I wish to commend Tommy Shores and J. Bruce for their excellent work at Goodyear Park. J. Bruce working behind the plate has proved as steady as the rock of Gibraltar. His decisions on balls and strikes are rarely questioned. Tommy Shores on bases is down on every play, makes an instant decision in a voice that can be heard up in the grandstand. His work has been as near perfect as could be. LAWRENCE . PARKER NOW A MARINER LAWRENCE . PARKER NOW A MARINER Those who like deep sea fishing or just a ride on the briny deep get in touch with Lawrence Parker. Parker is now the possessor of a 40 ft. ship capable of 15 knots an hour. He also has the very necessary pilot's license so that it is considered perfectly safe to ride with Parker at the tiller wheel. The first long distance trip to be made by the good ship Parker was a long trip to Catalina.
