California Eagle

MERRY CHRISTMAS Phone: VANDIKE 9244 CALIFORNIA EAGLE 1879 - 1924 TELEPHONE: VAndike 9244 The heads of the great Poro College of St. Louis, Mo., though far away in the East, busy making opportunities for the youth of the races, have not forgotten their many friends in the far West and desire through the columns of the "Soaring Eagle" to extend to them the greetings of the season—A Merry Xmas and Happy New Year. THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN M. A leader in his profession as a physician and surgeon, Dr. Eugene Nelson is also a leader in all efforts for the advancement of his people along all the various lines of effort. As through these columns on the occasion of our annual Christmas issue he sends his greetings, we delight to comment upon his steady rise and usefulness in the community in which he lives. While there may be those who fail to appreciate real effort there are a hundred fold more who do. We shall not soon forget the fact that at each step that the doctor has advanced, he has tried to advance others along with him. Void of selfish aggrandizement, but with a desire for real service in the realm of business activity, the doctor has indeed brought about inspiration and hope. The Commercial Council fathered by Dr. Nelson did not reach the heights expected, but it awakened the dull lethargy of the mind to the real possibilities along business lines as never before and in days yet to come will come forth as one of the bright spots among the efforts of our group in this section. Space will not permit the, description of the many and varied business propositions which Dr. Nelson has been the moving spirit; notable however among them, is the combination of men along the avenues of finance. Co-operating with Dr. Nelson they successfully organized a financial corporation and are equally successfully conducting the same just the same as any other group must do. MRS. AARON MALONE Dark People Happy Dubois Finds New York, N. Y., Dec. 20.—(By The Associated Negro Press)—Efficiency and happiness do not go together in modern culture, according to an article on the primitive man which William E. Burghardt Dubois, editor of the Crisis, bad contributed to the current issue of the Nation. He discourses as that as the "Great Truth" in travel which took him through the warm countries of the Mediterranean and into Africa. The Darker Race He Finds The Happier "Going south from London, thethe world darkens it gets happier," he writes. "Portugal is deliciously dark. Many citizens would have difficulty keeping off a Georgia "Jim Crow" car. But, oh how lovely a land and how happy a people. "And so leisurely. Little use of trying to shop seriously in Lisbon before 11. It isn't done. Nor at noon; the world is lunching and lolling in the sun. Even after 4 P. M. one takes chances for the world is in the Rococo. And the banks are so careless, and the hotels so leisurely. How delightfully angry Englishmen get at the 'damned, lazy Portuguese!" And so the editor finds conditions as he travels south into Africa. There he finds not the machines of the white man, the hustle and the bustle, the anxiousness, but in its stead, happiness, a development contemporaneous with that of the white, behind it, nor prehistoric to it, but a growth and manner of living which to those it affects, represents just as much of advancement. They have and take leisure for thought. They are courteous. He remarks: "These folks have the leisure of true aristocracy—leisure for thought and courtesy, leisure for sleep and laughter. They have time for their children—such well trained, beautiful children, with perfect unhidden bodies. Have you ever met a crowd of children in the east of London or New York, or even on the avenue at Fort-second or 142nd street, and fled to avoid their impunity and utter ignorance of courtesy? Come back to Africa and see well bred and courteous children, playing happily and never sniffing and whining" "have read everywhere that Africa means sexual license", he notes. "Parkape it does. Most folk who talk sex frantically have all too sadly revealed their source of material. I saw children quite naked and women usually naked to the waist—with bare bosom and limbs. And in these sixty days I saw less often sex dalliance and appeal than I see daily on Fifth avenue. This does not mean much, but it is an interesting fact." A PAPER WITH A HEART AND SOUL LOS ANGELES, CALIF., DECEMBER 26, 1924 NEGRO CITIES LOS ANGELES (For the Associated Negro Press "The most rapid growth of any city in the world, with a future almost unlimited", that's Los Angeles' proud boast. Six years ago a population of less than 600,000 and today a million with a goal of six millions for 1930. And these Los Angleans of darker hue are not one whit less proud of and insistent on the beauties and virtues of their adopted home than are their greater white neighbors. The colored populace, while it has not been able to keep pace with the general increase, is now variously estimated at from 40,000 to 60,000, depending on whether you are conversing with a real estate man or an ordinary citizen. The real estate men are the most evident personages in Los Angeles. Nowhere else probably are they so prolific, are they so prosperous or have they been so successful in selling sunshine and bungalows, bare lots and sunshine, mountains and sunshine or just plain sunshine itself. The "sunshine", that's California's stock in trade, and if you would gain unpopularity quickly, just select a Californian who has been here" over a year and make light of the radiant sun glow or stress too pertinently the cool rights. The effect of this "manimity of opinion has been marvelous. Los Angeles, one imagines as he drives through the strikingly lovely residential districts, many of which have sprung up overnight, must surely be the most beautiful city in the Americas. Wealth from Chicago, New York and the east bas' poured into this architect's heaven and bade them make the most for the money. Colored Los Angeles in proportion to its means has kept up with the procession. Owning a home or two there seems an obsession with the people here, and, as a result, rarely beautiful bungalows by the hundreds scattered all over the southwest and southeast sides and as far north as Hollywood, are owned and occupied by our folk. "The percentage of home owners as compared to our population is probably larger than in any other city" declared Sidney P. Doans, president of the California Realty Board, a combination of realtors whose avowed purpose it is quoting the words of its counsel, Hugh McBeth. "to broadcast to colored Americans everywhere, the opportunities, the welcome, the hope and cheer, which free California, its hills and valleys, its industries and commerce, its fruits and alwaysshine, offer to the American Negro." This is the first time, it is explained that a definite invitation by a responsible body has been extended to our group to come to the western borders in numbers. The great campaign of advertising for settlers carried on by the California Boosters' Club has in the main been directed at white settlers. The colored California Legal Society however supplements the bid to easterners and outliers by proposing to use its influence to see that the arm of protection is thrown around every Negro resident and newcomer, that opportunities for employment be opened up and that the rights now vouchsafed by the statutes of the state to every citizen be never abridged. The latter clause is added because, just as colored people have migrated chiefly from Texas, Louisiana and Oklahoma seeking freedom from oppression and congenial surroundings, so whites from these states have come in large number and no sooner do they arrive than they try to make their presence felt. The chief employment in Los Angeles is railroading. This, despite the fact that she is the sixth city of the country in manufacturing. The great trunk lines which have their terminals here require an army of employees and thousands of families are sustained through this avenue. In common labor, while there is an abundance of it, it seems that row of the men who do laborious work have penetrated to the far west or when they do, they develop a distaste for it. In any event, Mexicans have a monopoly upon street work section gangs, building labor and similar efforts. In domestic service, similarly, the Jap proves a competitor, working for lower wages, eager for a chance, the occidental has nearly monopolized personal service. CANNOT BE IMPROVED CHURCH GROWTH PHENOMINAL Less than two years there appeared on the ministered horizon, one who, because of his youthful appearance, was called the boy preacher. But within the scope of two years this boy has wrought wonders. The Zion Hill Baptist Church located at 1319 E. 22nd is a product of Rev. J. H. Holder's engenuity accomplished in less than two years. The membership of Zion Hill has raised near unto six thousand dollars, has increased its membership from six to over three hundred, while the church, when first purchased, was a neat wood structure it admitted of much modern improvement; and to the credit of Rev. Holder and his following th's improvement has steadily gone forward. REV. J. H. HOLDER On Sunday, December 14th, Mrs. Wiggins and her usher board presented to this church pews and conducted a Woman's Day program that was to say the least, creditable. The Zion Hill Baptist Church has in its membership some of the oldest and best citizens of Los Angeles and under the leadership of young Mr. Holder, who is without a doubt a new type of young minister, a great religious institution that will answer future growing needs will be established. ATTORNEY LEWIS K. BEEKS During the period of his practise here Attcney L. K. Beeks has gained an enliste reputation as a member of the local bar. The many cases, which he has handled have resulted in a uniform success. Notable among the same was the murder case where three young men were charged with the crime of killing the grocer at Belfe Station. The young man Mr. Beeks represented was the only one saved from the gallows. Assidious workers gathering up the shekels for white attorneys might have had better luck with the services of young Mr. Beeks. Famous Soprano To Sing Hear Mme. Bertha Dickerson-Tyres, Dramatic Soprano, in Recital, at The Independent Church of Christ, 18th and Palema Avenue, Sunday afternoon, December 28th, 3:00 eclock. HARRIS & FRANK There is no question when you are to trade with the Harris & Frank Emporium for gents and ladies fashionable merchandise. This firm is a household word in this great city from the fact that it is noted for its fair and square dealing and correct representation of every line of goods which it carries. Mr. Frank's presence alone is a guarantee of the highest order that peace and good will prevails and the house has caught the spirit for at all times the house of Harris and Frank gives to the patron the welcome which is genuine and sincers. The Eagle appreciates this spirit and each year as this season rolls around we feel complimented indeed to pen a line in acknowledgement of the Spirit of Xmas as exemplified by this great Harris and Frank Clothing Emporium. PETER H. Since the memory of man runneth not to the contrary it has been our great pleasure on the occasion of each Christmas edition to jot a line of reference to our most distinguished friend Judge Summerfield. This Christmas, 1924, being no exception we have but to say that in our humble opinion he stands today as he has always in the past for all of the things which tend to uplift mankind. We have read and studied the history of high officials, we have had personal touch with them and there are none whom we have ever met who have excelled Judge Summerfield in all the elements which go to give service to all the people. His worth is best attested by the fact that when he takes his cause before the people, they rally as one man to his support. His service has been such that there is no favor which the people can bestow upon him that they will hesitate for one moment to do so. There has been some talk of drafting the judge to make the mayoralty race, and if he would stand for the draft all other candidates had just as well declare a holiday. BROADWAY DEPT. STORE BROADWAY AT 4TH ST. There is no greater Department Store west of Chicago than the Broadway Department Store. It is thoroughly Cosmopolitan and its motto is service and quality. It is at this mart of trade where its customers leave thoroughly satisfied. In every line of merchandise, dry goods, ladies and gents' dress it carries the latest and fullest assortment. In fact there is no question of procuring what you want if you trade at the Broadway Department Store. The Yuletide shoppers are at home at th's store, their worries cease and the question of what to buy is always settled when they inspect the offerings at the Emporium of trade. The Broadway leads the van and all others follow in its make. There you find the Alpha and Omega of all that is good and grand. With the most gracious consideration to every customer and a myriad of clerks unexcelled for their genuine interest to serve you, this store rests upon the highest pinnacle of time. It's the Broadway all the year, and Broadway still when Xmas shopping is in the city. Broadway they say all Bruce's Beach Fights Condemnation Mr. and Mrs. Chas. A. Bruce and their son, owners of Bruce's Beach, are facing an action in the Superior Curt, filed by the City of Manhattan, in which that city seeks to condemn all the property owned by colored people at Manhattan Beach, under the pretext that it is to be named for a public park. Bruce's Beach, as it is commonly called is one of the best known resorts patronized by our people in the State of California, and many outings and parties have been held there during the past fourteen years the Bruce's have maintained it. The Bruce's have won an enviable reputation by reason of the upright and Chilean conduct, and even their enemies at Manhattan Beach who are fostering the papers to confiscate this property under the guise of condemnation proceedings, admit that their conduct has been exemplary and the management of the place of the highest offer. Atty. Willis O. Tyler has been engaged to prosecute the defense of the Bruce's and is preparing an answer to the Condemnation Proceedings in which he will set out the fact that racial prejudice is the real question to be tried and that there is no necessity for the condemnation of the Bruce's property for park purposes. In fact, says Atty. Tyler, there is much vacant property on both, the north and south sides of the Bruce property which could have been obtained and the fact that the city seeks to restrict its proposed park to the property owned by colored people only is palpable attempt to use the condemnation proceedings as a ruse to carry out the race prejudice which has taken this particular form of objection to members of our group having the right to enjoy bathing in the Pacific cean. SHERIFF J. E. BYERS Of San Diego, Calif. The above cut is a most excellent likeness of the very efficient, genial and courteous high sheriff of San Diego county. The record as peace officer made by Sheriff Byers cannot be excelled and the unanimity of all classes in his praises is noteworthy indeed. The Soaring Eagle is pleased to know him as a broad gauged, clean-cut gentleman and a strong supporter of our effort to serve the people. That the Sheriff is destined to serve the people of California in a broad field is generally conceded and in due time there is no question that he will be called on for such service. MARCO HELLMAN In the season of Christmas greetings, the encouragement received in our efforts to conduct a worthwhile publishing house by such men as Mr. Hellman is indeed worthy of special mention, as from time to time in the pursuit of business he never fails to give to us a listening ear and advice as to the successful conduct along business lines. Mr. Hellman stands out in bold relief as one of the giants of industry in this great section and as a part and parcel of the same. All groups of citizens are the beneficiaries of the things which he conducts and are responsible for the wonderful advancement of the wonderful city in which we live. Mme. Carrie Albritton-Daniels our own Los Angeles girl who has made such a record in the East that the musical center of all America acclaims her as their leading Mezzo-Soprano, will be given a great ovation at the Beth Eden Church Tuesday evening. December 30th. All Angelenoes of any taste for the finer things in art and music have been awaiting the date. They are anxious to know why Boston, that renowned city, which has given birth to more artists than any other place in America, equalled by few other places in the world, should, although responsible for her development from a promising California girl into one of the leading artists on the musical stage today, claim her as its own. Commenting on her recitals, the Boston Press pays her this tribute: "Mrs. Daniels' pleasing and varied programs reflect her versatility as an artist. She possesses a nellow voice which she uses effectively and a charming stage presence"—Boston Chronicle. "Mrs. Carrie Albrighton-Daniels, Mezzo-Scprato, gave a very fine recital last Tuesday evening. The program was very high class. Mrs. Daniels showed sweetness, control, fulness and power. Her interpretation was very intelligent. She was frequently eloquent. Such a rare voice is seldom given to humanity. She sings with that emotional interpretation that the Negro alone can give"—Boston Guardian. Mrs. Corley Wins Fight For Pension Mrs. Corley Wins Fight For Pension On Thursday, 18th of December 1924, the Police Pension Board granted Mrs. Flora Corley, widow of F. R. Corley, late Police Officer of Los Angeles, a Pension of one-half the pay Officer Corley was receiving at the time of his death. It will be remembered that Officer Corley was killed when he went to the rescue of Police Officer Robertson on 12th street near Hooper Avenue, on the night of August 25th. One Luther Bryant killed Officer Corry and also a Mr. Gilmore and wounded Officer Robinson. Bryant alleged that there was gambled just before the shooting and controversy developed over the right of the deceased officer's wife to a Pension because of this allegation. Attorney Willis O. Tyler represented Mrs. Corley in her effort to be awarded the usual Pension provided in such cases, and contended that Officer Corley died "in the performance of his duty." EASTSIDE TRADING COMPANY The Eastside Trading Company located at 1469 E. 23rd. St. near Hooper Ave. which has for the past two yrs. conducted a general store, has disposed for all the various lines of products except the Poultry department. This action enables this company to specialize in Poultry and great benefits to the consumer will result therefrom, for the reason that he will handle these products in large quantities and be enabled to make prices which will outrank any price made when handled in small lots. The company maintains a Poultry ranch of its own at Watts Calif. and will buy and sell poultry on a large scale. A scientific procedure of a well regulated business of this kind means much for our people and this concern places us in the front ranks along the line of production. The Poultry business on the Eastside has heretofore been a monopoly of which our group has been complenous as customers, but did not figure as producers, but did not figure Trading Company fills a long felt need and it is up to the members of our group on the Eastside to get squarely behind the company in this big venture which not only enables themselves to save money but gives a race production company a presence in business which means much for the obtained advancement of our business men along commercial lines. Mr. H. A. Reeves, manager of the Eastside Trading Company is to be congratulated for his effort to foster this enterprise and by rallying to his support with your patronage means success and a broader avenue of business will continue to be unfolded all for the advancement of the race along business lines. ae re Sit eee Fe rot Acct eres 2 ee e esr oe ee > , ed 3 ro eee oe pe : : : eos ae eee : . t : {a Dare Twrerwe 5, ee | : > - If You Fail To Read—THE ‘CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Neve: Know it Happened Hy wey NY) Se . . —iq pe) ah ed we 8 are £ i 1 : : BEFORE YOU BUY ANY CAR _.

Also, if the clutch is de- signed with a clutch brake, some lack of adjustment may cause the clutch brake to fail to function, or the lining may be gone. In new cars, or in recently relined clutches, this ‘sort of trouble some- times is due to the high spots on the clutch Uning not having worn off, causing a dragging, rather than slip- ping when the clutch si disengaged. ‘The thing to do is to examine every- thing carefully, and if the trouble is} not found in any of the points men- tioned, it is obvious that the fanlt lies| in the failure ot fhe cluteh Ites in the| failure of the clutch’ plates to slide freely over the pins of splines.

Indian Sheik Gets $50,000 Turin, Italy, Dec. 20.—(By The Associated Negro Press).—Posing as an Indian Prince who would present the grievances of American Indians to the League of Nations, White Elk, an American Indian, has made all the principal cities of Europe during the last two years. The Italian police have just picked him up, alleging that he has made a number of conquests of wealthy women in Genoa, Venice and Milan, from whom he obtained more than $50,000. Hampton-Tuskegee Fund Drive Launched In Boston Gregg of Hampton and Moton of Tuskegee Speak (By Frank P. Chisholm) Boston, Mass., Dec. 5th.—To make possible a broader program whereby Hampton and Tuskegee Institutes will be able to offer courses in business teacher training, natural science and agriculture, the Trustees and friends of these two institutions launched in Boston last Monday a national campaign for an endowment of $5,000,000. The support of both the whites and Negro population is sought. Boston's quota in this Drive is $165,000. The New England quota is $365,000. A dinner preliminary to the opening of the campaign was held in Boston at which many of Boston's oldest and most prominent families were represented. Charles E. Mason, Boston Trustee of Tuskegee and Chairman of both the New England and Boston Campaign committees, presided. The speakers were Principal Robert R. Moton, of Tuskegee; Principal James E. Gregg, of Hampton; and Dr. Francis G. Peabody of Harvard, Senior Trustee of Hampton of which Board Chief Justice Taft is Chairman. More than 100 special friends of Negro education attended the dinner. Such names, as Higginsons, the Shaws, and the Hallowells were represented by the sons and daughters and the grand sons and grand daughters of men and women who were identified with the early movement. Among those at the head table were Miss Alice Longfellow, the daughter of the noted poet of the same name; Rev. and Mrs. Paul Revere Frothingham; Mrs. N. Penrose Hallowell, widow of the late Col. Hallowell who led Negro troops in the Civil War; and Mrs. Charles E. Mason, granddaughter of John A. Andrew, the Civil War Governor of Massachusetts. South More Just To Negro South More Just To Negro "A few years ago I did no expect toive to see the Negro race treated with so much of the spirit of justice and good will in the South as the white man there extends to him today", said Dr. Moton, adding, "I thank God for what Hampton and Tuskegee are doing today to help create that mutual good-will. The generality of white Southerners have a real love for the Negro race and the Negroes in turn have a reciprocal affection for the average white southerner. Dr. Moton paid high tribute to a number of particularly liberal givers to Hampton and Tuskegee including Julius Rosenwald of Chicago, who has given $3,000,000 and is spending $1,000,000 a year in building school houses for Negroes throughout the South, and the late Miss Annta T. Jeanes of Philadelphia who gave large sums to provide common schools for Negro boys and girls in the country districts of the South. Dr. Gregg's Address "We aim at education," said Dr. Gregg, "not alone of the Negroes but of all the people. We want to re-enlighten the white people of this country as to the worth of the Negro. We must show that Democracy and Christianity are equal to the test of this racial question: The training of these two institutions for which we seek additional endowment is to be one in honesty, self-support, useful to the race and the community. The slaves have been legally freed, but they have not yet attained that wider freedom of the spirit, and we are all bound in honor to see that they get it". Dr. Francis G. Peabody of Harvard said, "As the race question advances, schooling for its leadership, for its professional and business men and women, for its educators and scientists must advance". The Hampton Quartette which furnished music consisted of W. E. Creekmur, O. E. Foster, J. Thomas, and W. H. Wainwright. Dr. Moton spent a very busy week in Boston filling a number of speaking engagements, calling on a few special friends and otherwise assisting the Boston Committee in launching the Drive. He expressed gratification for the sum of $1500 subscribed by Boston colored friends & a reception in his honor given by the graddates and former students of Hampton and Tuskegee.

Church, Main near 12th Ave. Seattle. Wash. Nov. 30, 1924. The black man has as much a part in the Bible as any other man. The Biblical commentators in quoting Biblical History note that God used the Negro and the Jew to play the important parts in making Biblical History. Moses was found, named, and rescued from death by a colored woman in the person of Pharoah's daughter. Through this woman Moses received his education. King Solomon's mother was a colored woman which made him Jew and Negro, mixed. Kin Solomon instructed King Hiram of Tyre to employ black men to work on his Temple. After te Temple was finished, King Solomon invited a colored woman in the person of the Queen of Sheba, to be the honored guest at the dedication of the Temple. Jesus in his infancy was carried by his parents to a Negro race in Africa thus saving his life from a death decree. At the crucifixion of Jesus a black man was on the scene to carry the Savior's cross when he was unable to carry the cross up Calvary. All through Biblical history the black man has played a very important part. But it is up to the black man to establish his own history and show to the world that he has achieved much as any other race. And also that his blood is not inferior to any other man's blood. Saint Paul said, "That God made out of one blood all nations." A man's action changes his blood; an evil action makes a bad blooded man and good action makes a pure blooded man acceptable to God and man. Friend selling tickets to the Carrie.

WHITE-COLORED GIRL REPLIES TO HUSBAND'S SUIT New York, N. Y., Dec. 20.—(By The Associated Negro Press)—Mrs. Alice Jones Rhinlander, wife of the millionaire Leonard Kip Rhinlander, filed an answer through her attorney, Samuel D. Ewinburne, to the suit brought by her husband for annulment this past Monday. The original bill filed by Rhinlander at White Plains, N. Y., charged that his wife had fraudulently represented herself to be white and had denied that she had any Negro blood. The answer makes no specific reference to these charges beyond a blanket denial of the whole section of the cc.plaint in which the charges were embodied. The suit probably will not come trial until late in January, Mr. Swinburne said. The colored-white Mrs. Rhinelander, still has "the greatest faith" in her husband and believes that the suit was brought and is being prosecuted by his relatives. She refuses to believe that he has had any part in it whatsoever. MENELIK POULTRY HOUSE To Their Friends and Patrons and Announce Their same Superiority in Quality of POULTRY and PRODUCE.

Different organizations of the church are making elaborate preparations for the rendition of programs which promise to be well worth your while. On Christmas night. December 25th, the Sunday School will hold its annual Christmas tree exercises.

The program of the evening will consist of several special musical numbers and the Cantata, "The Holy Night". Be on hand early, both morning and evening, if you would enjoy the entire musical treat. Although the attendance on last Sunday was just a little below par, the services, nevertheless, maintained the same high degree of excellence as heretofore. "The Worthwhile Life" was the subject of pastor's morning sermon. He clearly pointed out the fact that, in the final analysis of things, the Christian-Life is the only life which will really count. The subject of the sermon of the evening was "Christ on the Door Steps". Special emphasis was placed on the fact that Christ is always very near. All that is necessary is to open the door of your life and let Him in. The Sunday school and the Christian Endeavor Society have really awakened. Their influence is beginning to be felt, and they bid fair, during the ensuing year, to become real dynames, charged with interest and inspiration. Come out and help make this true. WARD CHAPEL A. M.

HOWARD LAUNCHES DRIVE FOR $100,000 Washington, D. C., Dec. 20.—(By The Associated Negro Press.)—The third and final phase of Howard University's campaign to raise $100,000 this city as part of the nation-wide drive for $500,000 for an endowment and building fund for its school of religion, was outlined at a conference at the Horel Raleigh Monday afternoon. Fifty thousand dollars, the sum set for the colored residents of the district, has been almost subscribed. It is expected to get $100,000 from white citizens. New York. N. Y. Dec. 20. (By The Associated Negro Press). Six million dollars was given for the advancement of Negro education during the past week by white philanthropists. The three schools to benefit from these gifts were Hampton Institute, Tuskegee Institute and Johnson C. Smith college (formerly Biddle University). The donors were George Eastman head of the kodak family, which bears his name and James B. Duke, the famous tobacco magnate. Colored education shared in a total of more than seventy millions of dollars given for helpful purposes by the two men. Hampton and Tuskegee shared the largest amount. Mr. Eastman added a million dollars to the endowment fund of each school in the form of a gift of stock of the Eastman Kodak Co. This stock was figured at a value of $50 a share. Actually, the Eastman gift amounts to much more. The stock is now listed at $111 a share. Johnson C. Smith University of Charlotte, N. C., was made the beneficiary of four per cent of a trust fund of $40,000,000 created by Mr. Duke. This four per cent will amount to $1,060,000 making an endowment fund which is almost twice as large as that recently obtained by Fisk University. The Choir of the Mt. Zion Baptist Church, under the direction of Mrs. F. B. M. Brown, will render their Christmas program Sunday night.

C., Dec. 20.—(By The Associated Negro Press)—After shooting to death Hillard McCoy, 22, John Henry Livingstone, 18 year old white youth, gave himself up and declared that he had killed Hillard in self defense. Indications were that Hillard has been slain while the two were running. ALL RACES SAME, SAYS SCIENTIST Washington, D. C., Dec. 20.—(By The Associated Negro Press)—According to Dr. Alex Harlick, anthropologist of the Smithsonian Institute, it is impossible to draw an exact line between the Negro and the white race on a basis of color and curliness of hair. As the white race extends further south into Africa and the face becomes blacker and the hair curler until the external appearance is largely, the same as that of the true Negro, he explains. The statement was made in the course of a lecture at the National Museum. Science has been forced to discard the theory that white, black and yellow are of different primal ancestry. The racial differences, although now deep-seated, are the result of environment rather than origin. ONE HUNDRED YEAR OLD MOTHER DIES Wilson. N.

Dec. 20.—(By The Related Negro Press)—Because he had spent four months in jail before being tried, and therefore had suffered sufficient punishment, the charge against G. F. Murphy, alleged "whoodo" doctor, was dismissed when it came up in federal court here. Murphy is alleged to have used the malia to convince prospective clients that, if they were suffering from marital difficulties, he could calm the troubled water. "Cures" for wives and husbands who didn't agree were guaranteed under $2.00 treatments. Mme.

Carver, head of the department of scientific research at Tuskegee institute, the New York Times is disposed to view with regret the chemist's recent confession that books did not mean much to him in his laboratory, his main dependence being divine inspiration. "It is for chemists to determine to what extent Dr. Carver is worthy of recognition. Whether eminent or not, he seems to have done useful work in discovering and developing new uses for several common southern products and therefore it can be claimed for him that he has shown abilities of the sort not present in many of his race. It, therefore, is to be regretted and by none more than by the intelligent members of that race that Dr. Carver in discussing his own achievements should use language that reveals a complete lack of the scientific spirit. "Real chemists, or at any rate other real chemists, do not scorn books out of which they can learn what other chemists have done, and they do not ascribe these successes to "inspiration" Talk of that sort simply will bring ridicule on an admirable institution and on the race for which it has done and still is doing so much. All who hear it will be inclined to doubt, perhaps unjustly, that Dr. Carver's chemistry it appreciably different from the astronomy on the once famous Rev. John Jasper, we so firmly believe that the sun went around the flat earth".

The relatives stated that every year she spent more and more trying to make everything black. In her home at Graz Castle she always wore black and kept all the windows perpetually shuttered. She slept by day and never went out until nightfall, taking care to return before the dawn. They further stated that she spent vast sums in purchasing black swans and sombre colored flowers. She hatched all things white to such an extent that she even ordered that when snow fell in her domains that it should be covered with cinders and coal dust.

Fields passed through the city last Friday enroute to Santa Barbara from Birmingham Alabama. Dr. Fields has recently been transferred from the Alabama Conference to the California Conference and stationed at Santa Barbara, in charge of St. Paul A. M. E. Church He comes to this conference well recommended, having to his credit a long and successful career in Florida and in Alabama. He comes to this conference from one of the leading charries in the Alabama Conference in Birmingham. In addition to this record as a successful pastor, he also brings with him a new bride. Mrs. Fields is the daughter of Rev. J. F. Gillens, Presiding Elder of Bessemer District. At the time of her marriage, December 14, she was a teacher in Payne University, Selma, Ala. We wish for them a pleasant and successful career in this excellent appointment. While in the city, they were the guests of Rev. J. H. Wilson and wife, Presiding Elder of the Southern California Conference. Monday, shortly after noon, a shot, almost in front of the California Eagle, was fired, and ere the working staff, and other passing pedestrians made the spot; those who had so quietly, but dramatically enacted the shooting scene had disappeared. The Eagle man nosed around for some minutes before any tangible information could be secured. Finally one who stood near by enlightened us as to who the shooter, and, "shot at" were. One thing we want to state here and now, and that is fails:—that due to our anxiety to get the facts, we failed to secure the name of our informant; which we realize is a serious breech in news gathering. However, this is the way it was told to us: Mr. Earl Reece was smitted on Miss Pamie Cole, who by the way has also a married name somewhere in Los Angeles. Miss Cole, it was stated, for a time received Mr. Reece's attentions, but upon the return of her friend husband, who had been out of the city, she notified Mr. Reece that his attentions were no longer desired, but said, Mr. Reece, it seems, was in for pressing his suit to the bitter end which was the shooting affray with Mrs. Bessie Becks, friend to Miss Cole, and a fiery champion of a woman's rights playing the leading role.

Liberians Seek Deportation of Syrians Monrovia, Liberia, Dec. 20.—(By The Associated Negro Press)A movement of much significance is now on here, combining the efforts of several Liberian organizations to have the proper officials see to it that the Syrians now resident in this country and deported on the ground that they are undesirable aliens. There has been growing repugnance among the Liberians to the presence of foreigners, finally culminated in representatives being made to the president of the Republic. The particular charges made against the Syrians are that they are cunning and unfair in business and make competition too rough for the Liberian. It is explained that when the Syrians first came to the country there were a Mrs. Fannie Williams BEAUTY PARLOR -- SCALP SPECIALIST -- Phone: West 2947 Williams' Wonderful Exceisor Hair.

They were "run out of gas" by the Syrians. It is also said that the Syrians are dirty and have very low standards of living, and the government is reminded that it should take similar steps to those taken by the British when the Syrians were driven out of Sierra Leone. In 1914 there were 12 Syrians in Liberia. Now there are more than eighty. There is great fear that the number may soon exceed a hundred unless an exclusion policy is adopted. ATTORNEY WILLIS O.

VICTORY FOR DISTRICT REPRESENTATION. The Supreme Court of California is alright. We say that because it does not hesitate to interpret the will of the people. The intention of the voter was the ruling thought and this situation overpowered all the technicalities of the law. Exorably it swept aside the desire of councilmen to continue their tenor in office and at last all of Los Angeles gets the opportunity to be represented in the City Council. Under the terms of the new dispensation, it will now be possible to see a councilman in all parts of the city, for the reason that each part thereof will have a representative of their very own. Again let us pause to remark that the Supreme Court of California is alright. In our last issue we were unaware of the fact that we would go to press so early in the week but notified our patrons of the dire necessity of the same. This fact is responsible for many news items being left out of this particular issue. For this we are sorry for the inconvenience to our patrons and the information of our readers as well. All matter left over will be published in our next issue. Some of our good white folk do not favor our good colored folk getting together to any marked degree and they contrive to keep them serrapping among themselves so they will not seriously consider any program which will bring them together. However, this rule will not always hold for once in a while a real honest to goodness man appears on the scene and drops a monkey wrench in the machinery. This is the situation between the White Sox and St. Louis Giants; the white folks tried to keep them apart but Messrs. Cobb and Goodwin, managers of the two teams are of the new school and the white folk could not keep raking chestnuts out of the fire at their expense. They got together and the two teams will play a series of games on their own merits, and if there are any chestnuts raked out of the fire they will enjoy them. May their tribe increase and others in the league. Get together! Get together! The image provided is too blurry and low-resolution to accurately recognize any text.

During the last campaign, Mr. Coleman was one of the live wires whose work received from the chairman of the County Central Committee special mention.

NO man who is not himself a master in any special art is properly qualified to instruct others upon what basis they may or can become masters in such art. F in an intellectual effort you use the thoughts of others as if they originally belonged to you; you ought to be as equally ashamed as it on dress parades, you wear your master's house, which one never made and does not even own, but merely utilised for the purpose of attaining some even end. It is a mark of scholarship to be accustomed, accurate, either in facts, grammar, logical thought or quoted passages. The other day we found a self-sacred "scholar" writing this piece of scriptural inaccuracy: "Ever learning but never coming to the knowledge of the truth" In II Timothy 3:7. The passage reads like this: "Ever learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth". Which makes all the difference in the world to the logical meaning and up in many ways such lazy EASE! THE most recent contribution (7) to the world's thoughts is this: "The man who studies the masters without THE HOPE AND AMBITION of becoming a master himself is doomed forever to intellectual apprenticeship". Good! Students to the "masters", all you need then, is the HOPE and AMBITION. This done you are no longer doomed! WE are no contributors to the world's thoughts but to such rotten and incomplete philosophy we surely never would commit ourselves in public print. IT is because of the ease which you sought and with which you persistently carried yourself while young in training why today you demonstrate in many ways such lazy EASE!

HUDSON AND ESSEX DEALER Central Avenue at 23rd Street Phones: HUmbolt 2167-J; HUmbolt 7546-W PAGE-TEN Nineteen and Tw YEAR JUST CLOSED A BIG ONE Special To California Eagle BY ROBERT GRAHAM CHICAGO, Illinois, December 20.—Nineteem twenty-four has been a wonderful year in many respects despite a financial stringency of a rather artificial than natural nature. Calamity howlers, pessimists and chronic complainers were busy preaching and spreading the doctrine of hard times. Many accepted and swallowed whome the propaganda put out by weak need parasites, but the public as a whole kept their feet and stood their ground and what promised to be a panic turned out nothing but a hoax. Conditions today in the business world generally and the automotive industry in particular are on the mend. With politics out of the way and a sense, sensible man is the presidential saddle for the next four years. Capital has decided to open its doors and advance industry the necessary means whereby it may again assume operations on a basis of normality with labor employed full time. It is surprising in reviewing the conditions of the past year that business has fared as well as it has and labor pulled through without any serious mishapage. With the passing of unsettled conditions such as existed during the past year 1928 promises to be a banne year noted for its prosperity. The wheels of industry which set as a barometer to conditions have already started retiring and by Jan. 1, should have gained enough momentum to satisfy the most presumistic that 1925 is to be a big year. THE EMPLOYMENT QUESTION Idleness is the avenue to crime and many a young man has been forced into crime by being denied the opportunity to earn a livelihood. Many take the stand, there is no excuse for crime. But crime makes its way along the line of least resistance consequently an individual out of employment with a hungry stomach, on his hand, and no place to lay his head save on the rock of Gibraltar is bound to do some rapid thinking and his thoughts are not in many cases the best, but like all things rapidly assembled, mistakes creep in, they take the wrong steps now and then, and commit a petty crime, and they are sent to jail or prison. The Negro is not a criminal at heart, and when given the opportunity to make good usually does so. Automobile Concerns His Friends Many concern's have closed their doors to employing colored and some of the big clubs are responsible for this action. The axium "live and let live" has been side tracked. However, with such automobile concerns as Don Lee of the Cadillac, Hoffman ```markdown ``` If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened or Studebaker, Albertson of the Dodge keeping the door open to employing competent help along certain lines, with several other big automotive concerns, hopes have not as yet faded and the automotive interests can, as we see it, be relied upon to at least do its part toward employing competent help of our group when the occasion demands, despite the effort, put forth to displace and discredit the Negro by one or two secret organizations that are detrimental and are eating into the very vitals of our American Institutions. Body To Start New Year With A Rush Auto Association Well Organized The Eastside Auto Dealers Association which put over the much talked of auto show is one of the few organisations that have so their purpose boosting business. If there is any one thing needed by the group more than any other it is more and better business, and to this end the Automotive interests have united to protect the public by assisting each member to conduct a clean place of business with reasonable prices. Public Robbed The public pays out thousands of dollars annually for care and repair bills that don't warrant it. In dealing, with members of the association one is assured that they will receive the best possible treatment in any deal whether it be the purchase of a car or grinding valves or any of the many requirements needed to insure a smooth running auto. ROSE-TOURNA- MENT MAKES GREAT PREP- ARATIONS Thousands To Attend As Usual The annual event of the Pasadena Rose Tournament is to, as usual, be a great event. Each year proves its worth $B_{8}$ an attraction, and the thou sands who attend are generally rewarded. START EARLY Those who are contemplating attending should start early as the highways will be taxed. It is to be hoped THE DECISION OF THE GOVERNMENT OF THE UNITED STATES TO EXPLODGE THE RACIAL DISCREPANCY IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK. that the colored citizens of Pasadena if not Los Angeles will enter a float in the parade and do their bit as in the past toward making the affair a success. different makes and merits of several concerns and finally centered on the "Reo." The Elite Taxi Service is the largest, best equipped and best known has studied the psycho its relation to the human abstracted the fact that dividual there is good what the complexion of AUTO RACES A SUCCESS Colored Drivers Make Big Hit With Public The first attempts to stage automobile races amongst our group was made this year and like baseball its here to stay. Chicago $ ^{1} $ credited with the first big race which proved beyond a doubt the future probabilities of such an event from a financial standpoint, and last month New York verified the faith Chicago had by also staging a real auto race. CARS ENTERED CREDITABLE Some fifteen or more different makes of racing cars specially equipped for the occasion were entered, and nearly all were the last word in workmanship. The races brought out the fact that there were a few Barney Oldfields, Murphies, Miltons, DePalmers. WOMEN RACE In the races held in New York there was a five mile special event for ladies and the time made, something less than four minutes demonstrating the fact that plenty of them have nerve. Several thousand witnessed each event, and it looks as if the disease might spread to Los Angeles before the close of the coming year. Central Avenue Auto Livery The rise of the Central Avenue Auto Livery of which Harrie E. Patterson is owner from an obscure position to its present prosperous status is interesting indeed. True it is not a million dollar concern, nor is it all that Mr. Patterson would desire it to be but to any one who is in a position to know its history it is to say the least, truly interesting. Mr. Patterson conducts a chain of rent are. Starting with one used car he now has seven, all new. Strict attention to business, courteous treatment to all with prices that are right, has not only permitted him to operate but to grow, until today he operates the largest fleet of drive it yourself cars on the Eastside. STANDARD OIL INCREASES SERVICE The Standard Oil Co. which owns and operates several hundred service stations in Southern California to say nothing of Northern California as well as taking all important centers in the U. S. and supplying hundreds of independent stations has doubled its service east of Main street and the Central Avenue district in the past year. The Standard has two chief assets, namely, Product plus Service. REO AGENCY IN BIG DEAL The Reo Agency recently closed a deal and delivered to the Mite Taxi Service Co. of this city a host of new TaxiCabs specially built for taxi services. For some time the Mite Taxi Co. had been looking over the different makes and merits of several concerns and finally centered on the "Reo." The Elite Taxi Service is the largest, best equipped and best known colored concern of its kind in the West and to be equipped with Reo taxis is par excellent. PRESIDENT OF BIG CONCERN A USEFUL CITIZEN There is no individual in the city of Los Angeles that has done more to advance the relation between the automobile and the public with regard to transportation than O. R. Fuller, president of the White Auto Co. one of the oldest concerns of its kind in the city. Success did not come to Mr. Fuller over night, but each year has added a chapter to the story of his success until today it reads like fiction. Besides being president of the White Auto Co. of this city he is president of the Motor Transit Co., which operates the largest fleet or motor busses in the State, used exclusively for carrying passengers. His advice and counsel is constantly sought in the enactment of all automobile legislation to the end that all may receive a fair deal. CENTRAL AVE. BRANCH When Mr. Fuller decided to open a branch on Central Ave. he did not go over the heads of his colored em- M. B. MR. O. R. FULLER President White Auto and Motor Transit Companies employees to find a Branch Manager, but recognizing ability, irrespective of color he selected and placed in charge of said branch a worthy employee in the person of Mr. Harry Beal. That his judgment did not fail his is amply proven by the manner in which Mr. Beal has conducted the business. Segregation and discrimination of passengers is in no sense tolerated in the operation of his bus lines. Sentiment does not enter into his business. You either make good or step aside, and yet he is a man who has studied the psychology of life in its relation to the human race and has abstracted the fact that in every individual there is good, matters not what the complexion of his skin, consequently he $ \mathrm{i}_{8} $ the friend of all humanity. When Mr. Fuller seeks rest and recreation from duties and responsibilities as everyone does at times he hies quietly 'away to the mountains with his shotgun and fishing tackle accompanied by an attendant; then the ducks and trout generally suffer for he is said to be an expert with both gun and real and love nothing better than a teal duck or mountain trout cooked over a camp fire. Mr. Fuller is a big asset both to the city of Los Angeles and the Automobile Industry in general. Hensley & Welch Do Large Business Hensley & Welch Do Large Business Henalay Brothers and Welch, who maintain a battery and tire station between 27th and 28th on Central Avenue, have established one of the best businesses in that vicinity, and each day finds them growing larger. There is no better battery specialist in the city than these two bothers and the tire department operated by Mr. Welch is a well conducted department that renders A 1 service. Allen & Lofton Open New Garage Allen & Lofton Open New Garage Messrs. Allen and Lofton, both of whom are well known have formed a partnership and opened a new first class garage at 23rd and Central Avenue. Mr. Allen was up to absenting himself from the city a year or so ago, a successful business man. Mr. Lofton is known to be an auto mechanic, and himself ran a repair shop for several years. Together they should be able to handle the public in such a manner as to merit their patronage. They have the agency for the Moon car. CELEBRATES SIXTH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATES SIXTH ANNIVERSARY The Independent Rubber Company celebrated its sixth anniversary on the 18th of December. No brass band was present nor was there any speech making or passing out of cigars. The celebration was such as takes place every day. When one realizes that three to four men are constantly kept busy attending to tire troubles they will readily see that there is not much time to socialize. The Independent Rubber Company has come to be known as the oldest and most reliable concern of its kind East of Main Street. A large assortment of fresh new stock of Standard makes of tires is kept on hand, and a repair shop equipped to do any and all kinds of tire surgery from repairing punctures to section work and retreating is an added feature. Exide BATTERIES SERVICE STATION Exide BATTERIES The battery that says. Like the well-trained soldier who performs his duty unhesitatingly, a good battery responds promptly whenever you need it. The Exide is always ready to serve you, whether for a quick start or a strong flood of light to point out danger-spots on your road. Rugged power and dependability lift the Exide out of the class of ordinary batteries. And it is economical because it serves you so much longer. Come in and let us prove the things to you. All makes of batteries skilfully and promptly repaired. The Auto Tire And Its Relation To Business By Mr. C. Famibro, Tire Specialist No one acquainted with the automotive industry and its relation to conditions in general in so far as the welfare of the nation is concerned as viewed from every angle will fail to acknowledge the fast that but for the automobile tire, both pneumatic and solid, business would not have progressed and developed to the lofty heights it enjoys today. Rapid transportation has been the one thing that has made possible the startling growth of our cities with their many business interests and connections and rapid transportation as it is known today could not have reached its present zenith but for the auto tire. Vibration was and is today, in a subdued form one of the arch enemies of the motor car. The auto tire of today is far removed both in appearances and construction from those of yester year when Michelin Goodrich and Goodyear first gave to the world the pneumatic tire. Crude rubber, long staple cotton and steel, the basic-foundation that enter into the construction of the super tire of today have reached such a stage of development and perfection that vibration has well nigh been eliminated. WHAT'S THE RESULT And as a result we live in a new age. Motor transportation in every form from the hauling freight and passengers in competition with the great steam and electric lines down to use in the home as family convenience owes its present status largely to the King Tire. HOW LONG MUST THIS LAST? Last year the California fatality rate for automobiles was 25.8 persons of each 100,000 of the state's inhabitants. In New York the rate was 16.4. Los Angeles, Sacramento and Long Beach were responsible for the high rate. Their excess brought up the average for the state. And this year the rate seems to be mounting still higher. Some say the method of licensing motor drivers is the fault. Others hold that laxness by the police and leniency in the courts towards violat ors of the laws and rules intended, to govern the use of the roads encourages recklessness. Both views probably are correct. Of course, no matter how stringent the terms of the law if its prescribed punishments for violation are not enforced the law remains ineffective. And both the police authorities and the courts, seem little disposed to make rigid the enforcement of the motor safety laws. But what else but fear of punishment ever will put an end to the reckless driving which every minute endangers the lives of others, and every day takes its toll of men and women and children to add to the fast swelling fatality list? Something must be done! Let us have immediate action to curb reckless driving! Kissel Car Auto Show Sensation The Auto Show is history but the Kissel Car display still lingers in the memory of those who visited the show. No car has in recent times attracted so much attention. substantially-built car well balanced and designed with a motor that is flexible and at the same time capable of developing power in excess of its requirements are a few of its advantages. H. J. Winzburger, Inc., as distributors, have recently appointed Chas. Pearl agent for the Central Avenue District. Several sales have been made as a result of Mr. Pearl's appointment and the 1925 outlook is quite promising. Mr. Pearl carries in addition to the new kind a large number of used cars guaranteed to give satisfaction. A visit will convince. ELITE TAXI CO. The Elite Taxi Cab Company is a fair example of what can be done along the line of business when properly organized and managed. Starting in the neighborhood of four or five years ago with a little nerve and some good equipment this company is today the largest and best concern of its kind in the entire west owned and operated by race capital. Taxi cabs of the latest design have taken place of the touring car and several Cadillac limousines are kept in service for special occasions. The drivers are uniformed and the service is 24 hours uninterrupted. Properly adjusted brakes never get anyone in trouble. It is false economy to patch very old inn tubes.

Oils and greases are a big factor in the performance of a motor car and have much to do with its life, hence one, if he desires satisfactory results must select the best possible product that science can produce with the assistance of laboratories. In this respect Pennzoil oil and greases have stood the test of time. Several hundred different makes of cars traverse the highways and city thoroughfares and Pennzoil has a standard for all whether it be pleasure car, racing car or heavy duty trucking car. No lubricants on the market are superior to this Pennzoil product. Thousands of satisfied customers daily using our products tell the tory, better than word can describe, why Pennzoll is today the one motor lubricant more in demand than any other. L.E.C.GARAGE The L. E. C. Garage has been operating under the above name for several year$_{3}$ past and has become known as thoroughly reliable. Aside from doing general repair they maintain an ignition and battery depaartment. Every five minutes spent greasing the new car will save an hour's labor on a future repair bil. Loose timing gear chains cause a noise that is between a thump ntd a rattle. A Progressive Dealer A few years back there drifted into Lo$_s$ Angeles from the city of Pittsburgh an individual known as A. L. Johnston. Just what attracted him this way is still a mystery but the same Mr. Johnston has built up a real live automobile business, and at present has the exclusive agency of the Central Avenue District for the popu- THE BEST OF THE WEEK lar Hudson and Essex automobiles. His business is incorporated and the many satisfied customers speak well of his ability as an auto dealer. "My one desire," says Mr. Johnston. "is to build my business upon a foundation of honesty by selling the public cars that will pass inspection as to worth the true value and this has been my greatest asset in building my business up to its present size." LEC CARPORA INDUY AUTO SHOW TRAFFIC If the solution of our traffic problems lay in the passing of resolutions, receiving reports of traffic committees, sent off on long junketing trips, or prohibiting parking in congested districts, Los Angeles would long ago have reached a state of perfection in so far as controlling the traffic situation is concerned. But such is not the case. Conditions each day seem to be growing worse until the public throughfores have in many instances reached a point of stagnation. Chief of Police Holman, has asked for 400 mre piece t help handle the situati and if his request is granted, it will prove the biggest step yet taken in an effort to assist traffic to reach its point of destination with the least bit of inconvenience. Let us hope the city council for once in its life indores the chief. Automatis signals perform a great service in assisting traffic. But we have too many varieties on the streets of out city. True, many are being tried out subject to being installed upon approval by traffic commission. However Los Angeles should center on some one or two of the many and stick to them. This would prove the most practical and convenient. As it is there are from 3 to 4 different makes in any given mile, where they are installed. This causes confusion because every one operates differently and it is a different location from five feet above ground to 20 feet. Some in the center of the ground and others over head, while still others are on the side. If any one of the many steam railroads operating attempted to use as many different styles as Los Angeles in their effort to make travel safe the railroad commission would not let them operate five minutes on account of the danger attached so why should a city the size of Los Angeles take a chance. Woodman's Service Station The fast growing town of Watts was visited last Sunday by the Eagle man and many agreeable surprises from a business point met fills eye, chief among which was Woodman's Service Station which ad appears elsewhere. Mr. Woodman has a first class gas station and renders A 1 service and he is to be commended for being so progressive. When in need of such service look him up. L.E.C.
