Express Speaks For Noah D. Thompson Published exclusively in the California Eagle last June was an announcement sent out by the Los Angeles Express to the effect that Noah D. Thompson had been sent to the National Republican Convention as its official newspaper representative. But it seems that in spite of the fact that; upon numerous occasions, Mr. Thompson's position has been clearly outlined a contemporary writer on the New Age-Dispatch in answer to an inquiry from Torrance, California said, that "rumor has it that a member of the race is connected with a Los Angeles daily in an editorial capacity, but we have been unable to verify this on a number of occasions". Hence the reply: Los Angeles Evening Express January 2, 1925. Copy for the California Eagle. Mr. Donald Pierce. Torrence, California. Dear Sir:— In the New Age-Dispatch of December 26th, you are alleged to have asked, among other questions, whether or not a member of our race is connected in an editorial capacity on a white daily paper. The answer you received is the same issue states that: "Rumor has it that a member of the race is connected with a Los Angeles daily in an editorial capacity, but we have been unable to verify this on a number of occasions." Should you really desire to know whether or not a Race man is on the editorial staff of a Los Angeles daily paper, permit me to suggest, that you call or write Mr. A. Y. Tully, Managing Editor of the Los Angeles Evening Express, 236 South Hill Street, Los Angeles, California, and enclose a self addressed and stamped envelope for reply. By so doing you will get the correct answer to your inquiry and at the same time you will help the writer show the budding young journalist who undertook to answer you, the proper way to run down a "rumor" and get "real information" for those whom he invites to question him. Respectfully yours, NOAH D. THOMPSON. Member, Editorial Staff, Los Angeles Evening Express, Los Angeles Evening Eyres, January 7, 1925. Mr. LeRoy S. Hart, City Editor, New Age-Dispatch, Los Angeles, Calif. Dear Mr. Hart: — Your letter of recent date in which you inquire "whether or not Noah D. Thompson, a Negro, is a member of the editorial staff of the Los Angeles Evening Express, received. In answering that Mr. Thompson has been a member of the editorial staff of the Evening Express for many years, permit me to add that Mr. Thompson is not only considered by me a valuable member of the staff, but I believe him to be an authority on all that pertains to the welfare and progress of the Negro Race in America. Because of his sincere interest in his Race and his ability to aid in the solutions of its many vexing problems Mr. Thompson has been intrusted by this paper with many matters of great importance to the Negro, not the least of which was his assignment to the Republican National Convention held last year in Cleveland, Ohio, where he did pleadid service for his newspaper and his people. Respectfully yours. (Signed) A. Y. TULLY, Margaret Maltz killed by a shot through the head fired by Loose. Young Brown was a student of Mc Kinley High and a favorite among his many friends.

Y., Jan 8.—(By The Associated Negro Press)—Greatness is the solution to any problem whether it be the problem or being born a millionaire, or being born poor, of being born a Frenchman, a Vansian or a Negro," declared Mrs. Dorothy Canfield Fisher, eminent American novelist and short story writer as she made the award of Alpha Beta Chapter (of Delta Theta Sigma Sorority) $1,000 Scholarship for a year's study in Europe to Miss Wendolyn Bennett, young, talented art instructor of Howard University, Washington, D. C. Saturday evening, at the opening meeting of the 64th Annual Convention and 11th anniversary of the Delta Theta Sigma Sorority.

Owlier left the city last Saturday at 1:35 for Davenport, Iowa, rushing to the bedside of his mother, Mrs. Jenava Tibba, who was reported critically ill. $2.00 THE YEAR Scientists have decided that there has been a mistake made in computing the weight of the earth and are going to reweigh it. There is, the small matter, of some five quintillion tons, but it does not state whether the difference is over or under the prescribed weight for a youngster of his size. If under, perhaps they have not known of the amount or gas extracted during the few past decades by our Race orators in their plans to solve racial problems, or the amount of his "inards" extracted through Tea Po; Dome manipulations. It is to be hoped that the Savants in their quiet cells will have that thought in mind while computing the exact poundage of the young Terra Firma. Whatever those savants may determine, we reiterate the statement that progressive race farmers should own some of California's productive soil before the "Old Fellow" either shrinks from extraction or blows up from inflation. We feel certain that there will be no shrinkage, but we do look for a big inflation, in acreage price, in a short while. Farmers from the middle West and the less favored sections of this country are coming here in numbers. It is claimed that the difference in the price of the land is more than offset by the productivity of the soil, and the working conditions which exist because of climate. One of our prominent editors is quoted as saying that of the Negro vote in the past presidential election "Five million were cast for LaFollett one million for Coolidge, and two hundred and fifty thousand for Davi. It is very hard to say where theitor gleans his information, or toextent his survey of the vote hasafield, but, judging from this "neat the woods" he has the vote beLaFollette and Coolidge reversemay be that the wish was farthe statement. True there werethousands of LaFollette suppamong the Race voters when theator first announced his cancunbut, as we predicted, there werelions of voters who changedthe minds between their homes and thepolling booth. It is a shameful state of affairs when with all of the apparent opportunities which, practically hurl themselves in the face of the Race vote of the State (California) that "Pea-nuts" will insist on the the "Dog In The Manger". Tho to be perfectly satisfied t the minor role and accept of comfort when by a litt worth-while man could a worth-while positior could be of materia' Race, but as long tions are as at pres not expect any n Inter WE believe th who wrote that is no heresy!—1. go by destiny." says that "Marria more worth than t in. by attorneyship' Gribble, writer of E. deplores that so many women of the white ra amored and marry men races. He trys to make us the fall of Greek civilizatio dry other civilizations, co. traced to the mixing of the bla says also, that the chief reason United States in enacting the ent emigration law was the fear t it would meet the fate of the Greek and other nations and shoot the to-boggan of civilization. It is one of the peculiar things of such discussions that the warning is at all times directed to the young women of the race and no word of advice is ever tendered to the young men telling them of the danger lying in the song of the dusky "sirens". It seems that all of the darker women are classed as legitimate prey for their licentiousness. But as Charles Kingaley says, "Murriage is the life long miracle. The self-begetting wonder, daily fresh". It is only intolerance that faunts the "mimicked bogooob" and it is only the fear of social ostracism which prevents lawful marriage and sets a premium on licentious and illicit mingling of the races. Nor is that mingling confined to any one of the sexes of either race. MIDDLEBURY MUSEUM Re-organized and Modernly Equipped. Ever ready for your Convenience and Service. A.

If You Fail To Read THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE You May Never Know It Happened $125.000 INCREASE IN BAP. TIST PROPERTY THE HISTORY AND PROPERITY OF ST. JOHN MISSIONARY BAPTIST CHURCH (Continued from last issue) In 1923 numerical growth with hundreds of tourists flocking to Los Angeles, many of them through the divine which appealed to him, and the Christian like spirit that existed at St. John Baptist Church, hastened to Rev. Knox choose it as their church home. Some with letters and some by christian experience and others by baptism. The membership has grown to more than three hundred. The building was inadequate to accommodate the growing auxiliaries of the church and so Pastor Knox, leading his deacon board and trustees, began looking around for a more commodious building. In 1924 the constituents of the church had a year of great joy and praise, some of its members being the most experienced and / efficient workers that many of the state could afford. The men and women were really equipped for service. With this spiritual fervor and numerical strength Rev. Knox continued to organize his forces for a greater work in kingdom building. Deacons and deaconesses, Trustee Board, Sunday School, with a teachers' training course. The Home and foreign Missionary Society, The Y. W. A., the Star Light Band, the Adult Choir, the Junior Choir, the B. Y. P. U., the Usher Board, the Poor Saints' Board, Fifteen financial Chairmen to collect the regular monthly pledges, two financial clerks;—these are some of the Auxiliaries that are making the church go. His motto is 'Every one at work.' In 1925 the finance and prosperity of this church has had a banner year, the various auxiliaries having raised up in the thousands of dollars. With the increased number of members, three hundred and fifty, there was no way to accommodate them in their present location, 1546 Polomares. The latter part of April found pastor Knox leading the way negotiating with the Church of Nazarine at 38th and Compton Avenue for this beautiful edifice and valuable property around edifice and beautiful property, with the agreement of his board of offices and we were found here worshipping one week, so that by the 15th of June headed by the Junior Band of Los Angeles, marched from their old location and settled here permanently. The entering into this building has been an unexpressible joy to the church at large. He has gained a deeper love and a higher respect for his members. His business dealings have given to St. John the property valuation of $125,-000.00, and his leadership has drawn around the church some of the most influential and powerful citizens in Los Angeles. Rev. Knox, with the church has established a Bureau of Employment and a Free Clinic for this Community and city. May Rev. Knox long live to enjoy the fruits of his untiring labor and continue to be instrumental in the hands of the Master, 'is our expression of gratitude and our prayer. Christmas Sermon THE RIGHTFUL KING I will overturn, overturn, overturn it; and it shall be no more until He comes whose right it is; and I will give it to Him—Bzek. 21:27. By: Pastor Charles P. Jones Of Christ Temple Church Each passing year we celebrate With hearts both generous and elate The birth of one, a Holy One, In Bethlehem—a Virgin's Son. He grew to manhood's full estate, And so. His power was so great That they who life's paths with Him trod, Declared He was the Son of God. Though some this strenuously denied, Others, to prove it true have died; And even the business of the earth Is dated to proclaim His birth. In strong men's hearts He lives and reigns. O'er rolling seas and spreading plains E'en royalty His birth song sings Thus to proclaim Him "King of Kings." Yea, He shall reign where'er the sun, Does daily rise its race to run. And spread salvation and good cheet From land to land and sphere to sphere. Ezekiel was, like other prophets, proclaiming the birth of Christ. He was compelled to proclaim also the overthrow of his own people, for they were proving themselves unworthy of the dominion. The Christ was promised to them and through them to the world, but they were not worthy to inherit with Him. They were disobedient, unbe- living, hypocritical, idolatrous, self- seeking, stubborn, wilful, and morally unclean. It was the unpleasant task of the prophet to tell them of their overthrow, but of the sure dominion of the Messiah. Three times were they to be overturned and deprived of the dominion—by the Chaldeans, by the Greeks, and by the Romans. Then He should whose right it was—the seed of Abraham, the Son of David, the Son of God, the Son of the virgin, the Seed of the woman. Then He came and that as a helpless infant, and though Herod tried to destroy Him. Herod, the ambitious Eldomite; and though the priests and Elders and scribes reected Him, the dominion was given to Him. Yea, though He bound up their broken hearts, healed their diseases, delivered them from devils, fed their hungry mouths, and ruled the winds and waves before their eyes, they rejected Him, only a remnant, and election cleaving to Him. Yet they lost the dominion and He gained 't. They put Him to death—He rose again the third day. They persecuted His faith—it spread all over the Jews and then all over the whole empire. They set both the religious and political influence of Jerusalem against Him—Jerusalem was destroyed. They opposed Him with the temple worship—the temple worship was destroyed and never has been rebuilt. He gave their Bible to the world. The world will not have it without Him. With Him as its soul and interpreter the Bible outsells any other STOP IN AND SEE FRANK HENRY AT ONE OF HIS THREE PLACES 1415 Central Avenue 1915 Central Avenue 1621 East Ninth Street For Your Cigars, Tobacco and Confections CANNOT book printed among men. He took their forefathers, their prophets and made them the world's spiritual leaders, th emains of all nations. He took their history and made it the world's inspiration. He took their sacred places and made them mountains of holiness to the minds of Gentiles. But they themselves wandered through the world, oppressed, despised, ostracised, driven, the bootleggers, actors, and theatrical promoters of the world. The greatest people on earth, inheriting the most sacred traditions of the ages, bankrupt spiritually, the buffoons of the nations, the worst money worshippers of all times. They lost the sacred dominion of their ancestors, the faith of David, the glory of Solomon. Jesus of Nazareth, has it, God has given it to Him. And He has given it to those who love His name. They have rejected Him. Three times they were overthrown, and the Judean Kingdom rose no more. The dominion belongs to the Son of Mary, the Son of David, the Son of God. They may hate Him, but they must do business with those who adore Him, and they must date their business papers and their letters by the year of His birth. He reached out and took from the heathen gods their dominions, and their festivals were changed into seasons of celebrating His birth and the events of His glorious life.* His cross became a golden throne in the hearts of men. His crown of thorns became a crown of universal and eternal power and life. The seed in His hand became the scepter of boundless dominion. The gorgeous robe with which they mocked Him has turned* into the royal robes of everlasting empire, Jesus, the Babe of Bethlehem and the Carpenter of Nazareth has the dominion, with all power in His hands. Amen. Spend the season as you may, O'er it all His hand holds sway; Be you full of cheer or gloom, His will is your life or doom. O'er the ages He outspreads Hands that bless ten thousand heads; In His Spirit's presence, He Saves and cheers on land or sea. Bow to Him ye rich and great, And yet poor upon Him wait, Soon He'll reign from shore to shore Earth will then learn war no more Meanwhile let Him have His place In thy heart and mine. Let grace Reign in us through righteousness, So we glory shall possess. So with Him we too shall reign, Now and when He comes again; Unto Him all knees must bow— Blessed He who bows right now.

SERIES--THE TRINITY as I have seen thee in the Sancs Ps. 63:2. The Tabernacle or ary set up by Moses was easily designed to set forth in typeadow the fundamental doco of the gospel of Jesus Christ. So the Jews looked upon the tent afar off, or as with sacrifices rew nish, they saw a picture of of salvation as it is in Jesus. If spiritual enough of vision they who are filled with the they saw God. God revealed in every feature of the tabernacle appeared in three two parts visible, one part in the court, one hundred cubits fifty cubits wide; the cubit sanctuary being a little above one inches. It would there proximately be 180 feet long as wide. court formed a yard inclosed its sands and curtains 5 cubits or feet high. It opened with but rance and that to the East.

Yes, he was more to the point than that. In Corinthians 2:4 we read—"But the man who is wise is the man who things of the Spirit of God; for then the foolishness unto him. Neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned." There it is for you in plain words. The finite cannot comprehend the infinite. Let us be pleased to know God as He is pleased to reveal Himself; for that is the only true and safe way. Only in this way may we truly know both the Father and the Son and honor him. For though the Father declared they were one yet He also plainly said, "My Father is greater than I." The Father set forth this truth in the sanctuary in perpetual symbol, a daily picture, a shadow gone before. But now He heath sent the Holy Spirit to teach us these things. The Jews could not understand the statement made in the 110th Psalm—"The Lord said unto My Lord, Sit Thou on my right band till I make thine enemies the footstool"—but they who are filled with the Spirit can. We can see Christ the Son as our High Priest entering into the essence of God for us (Heb. 9) and sitting in the majesty on high (Heb. 1:14). It is easy to him that understand and night to them that find knowledge" Pro. 8:9. II. the earth, the church and heaven, all belonging to God. We see by reading the book of Hebrews that the most Holy Place represented Heaven into which Christ has entered for us. Read the 9th chapter of that epistle and see. It is easy to see that the outer court represented the world, for there the victim died and was offered on the brazen altar. For though the Savior's not shed by the church nor in the church, He died outside the gate. There we meet Him. Heb. 13: 10-13. In this court was also the laver. It represented regeneration that after we have been justified freely by His blood (at the altar) we may enter the church and serve God. The world was also one with "the law in the letter"—the letter killed. The Jewish law condemned Him to death as a sabbath breaker and the law was raised from the dead by the Spirit of Holiness and established the church on the doctrines of resurrection grace; by which we draw nigh unto God. The Holy Place represented the church. The church is a hidden thing, as it were. Ps. S.2.3. The gospel is a mystery. Ps. S.2.3. The sanctuary symbolizes "the secret place of the Most High" in its first degree. That is what the church is. The priests would enter the Holy Place while the High Priest alone could enter into the Most Holy Place. So he made Jesus *Arr High Priest* after the order of Melchezdec, and he ministers in the Heavens, while we are made Kings and Priests unto God (Rev 1.5.6) and minister in the church and the world. Moses of this anon. The sum of what we have is the Christ ministers in a trinity of places. (1) In the world He is a Creedified Reelemer, the court is the world—Jerusalem which now is. (2) In the sanctuary, the church. He brings us nigh to God, before whom we minister as priests in the white raiment of His righteousness. (3) In heaven Christ has appeared for us with his own blood there to make intercession for us. This, the Holy of Holies symbolized. III. The Human Being as a Saint Man was made in the likeness and image of God. As God is three-fold, so is man—body, soul and Spirit. I Thess. 5:23. I—The outer court stands for the body. It is visible. In the court death had to take place daily that the inner sanctuary might continue holy. So we who would be godly must suffer. In the fleshly man we die daily. We are in deaths oft. I keep under my body and bring it into subjection, lest that by any means when I have preached unto others I myself should be a castaway. I Cor. 12:27. Pater 12:27. For as much as Christ hath suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind, for he that hath suffered in the flesh, hath ceased PHONE: METROPOLITAN 8296 from sin". 1 Pet. 4:1. In the body the soul and spirit have their dwelling place and within the Spirit God dwells. The Holy Place represents the soul. The Most Holy Place represents the Spirit. For while both soul and spirit both body and soul the soul is instructed in the wisdom or God. God dwells in the spirit. There is a heavenly place in the depth of the being of redeemed man where the Spirit delights to dwell and from which he speaks. Here in this depth ablides the ark of the covenant of peace divine. Here is the oracle of God, the power that rules the purified conscience, that discerns the good and evil consents to sin. Here dwells the heaven by Sheikhn, the glory of the presence of God. Amen. When a man lives in his flesh he errs and perishes in his pride. But when he educates the flesh with affections and lusts (Gal. 5:15-24) and dwells in the spirit he has then entered the secret place of the Most High (Ps. 9) and dwells in God and God in Him. John 4. To the cross with my flesh. Let the old man die Let self perish. Let me die daily But let the altar fires keep flaming even in my flesh sanctifying me to God, and let Him dwindle within me by faith. Amen. Ejh. 3:14. REV. FLEMING RESIGNS To The Officers and Members of The Macedonia Baptist Church:—Having served you as a pastor for five and one half years, and after leading you from the confines of a small building 21 x 40 with lamps on the ceiling, you were invited to study of about 125 to a spacious stucco building with ornamental electric lights with double the seating capacity, well ventilated and well lighted. Starting with less than 50 members, we have enrolled more than 200. Completed in 1985, the strongest churches in our Associational District. From an assessment of $25.00 per year to $175.00 per year, from a pastor's salary of $40.00 per month to a salary of $100.00 per month, with paid christian, organist and sexton; you should look forward to higher and nobler things and after passing through many changes seen and unseen we come to the parting of a way. As a father food, and cared for a child offered and deprived himself of many pleasures and comforts of life, for their good, so have I for you, I have felt your sorrows, seen your need, and shared your burdens. Loved by some, scorned by some and disgrudged by others. But as Christ has said, if they do this to a green tree what will they do to the dry? They crucified him, I must not for anything different. Therefore I resign the pastorate of us for the following reason, lt, because it is against my religious principle to be concerted that has an admission program for concerts, and programs; Second, I believe I have done all the good I can in this field. Therefore this resignation shall go into effect January 31, 1925. Respectfully, Rev. John R. Fencing. BETHEL BAPSTIST CMURCH Holding Its Services in the Y. M. C. A. 9th and Hemlock Sts. Rev. H. D.

From the chosen texts and each discussed and driven hom. All expressed delight and acknowledged benefit. This Sunday is Rally Day, and each member and friend is expected to turn up, turn out, and turn in. The Lord's Supper at night. Next Sunday Dr. Scott, the great scholar and preacher will fill the pulpit all day. We ask all to come and hear this distinguished stranger and mighty preacher. TUBERCULOSIS The very name of tuberculosis is dreaded by many people; they look with horror on those who are unfortunately stricken with this disease and shudder at the thought of getting it themselves. There is of course some reason for this, for tuberculosis has been the enemy of mankind for many years; but with modern methods of combating it the situation should appeal to us as being more hopeful. Tuberculosis is an infectious disease but if the proper care is taken both by the patient and his friends it is not so very contagious. Do not diagnose tuberculosis and shun all of your friends who happen to cough a little and have a slight fever. His or her run-down condition may be conducive of this disease and perhaps these early signs may in some cases be incipient tuberculosis, but do not relegate them to doom simply because you think they are afflicted. Such patients should consult a physician for thoracic surgery and diagnosis. Do not be reticent about giving him a careful history of your habits and past illness, also any history of your past association with infected persons, especially at a time when you were not in robust health. 1920 DR. V. C. HAMILTON This disease takes its great toll from young people, there are several reasons for this. One is the stress and strain of life is borne in youth which necessitates greater exposure to infection. Again the almost tireless energy of young people loads them to pursue to the breaking point a course that is robbing them of their vitality, thus making it too late to recuperate when they realize their condition. Their pleasure loving tendencies lead them to spend on successive nights for long periods of time, part of their much needed sleeping hours in the balls of dissipation followed by an hour or two of sleep then a day of toll. These are some of the devitalizing acts of youth that make it a prey to this disease. Children are very liable to tuberculosis, the relative ease with which they are infected as they play in the dust especially of the street, and also their inability to protect themselves from careless infected persons. Tuberculosis may attack other parts of the body beside the lungs. In children we especially have tuberculosis of the bones, joints, and lymph nodes—the fast named type is commonly called scrofa. Tuberculosis of the lungs is even attack the membranes covering the brain causing tubercular meningitis. Some of the avenues of infection are infected dust, droplets of moisture from the mouths of infected persons, or coughing or loud talking, by eating or drinking contaminated foods, milk especially should be pasteurized or a sterilized culture safety. Infection may be avoided if care is taken to live in airy quarters, spend some time in the sunshine each day this should be outdoors and not be behind transparent panels of glass that admit light but strains out the valuable rays that you need most. Avoid living in contact with active cases of tuberculosis, unless the patient has enough sense of responsibility to be careful. Take care in sweeping and dusting the room, using the floor from playing in the dust of the street. Do not move into a house where a patient with active tuberculosis has been living unless it is thoroughly cleansed and disinfected. Eat good, nourishing food with a fair proportion of fresh green vegetables and milk. If you find yourself losing weight rapidly with a tired, worn-out feeling, consult a physician before it is too late. If you desire to ask questions address them to Dr. V. C. Hamilton, 2005 Central Ave. Phone: Hu'mbolt 7840. V. C. HAMILTON, M. D. PHILIPLS TEMPLE C. M. E. CHURCH Sunday was a great day at Phillips Temple spiritually. Our pastor preached a soul stirring sermon, and many hearts rejoiced while he in a very eloquent manner delivered the message. The door of the church was opened and three happy souls came forward and joined. Sunday is general "States Day". All members of the church are requested to be present. The choir will render some special numbers Sunday. Preaching at 11 A. M. and 8 P. M. Visitors are welcome to all of our services. Come out Sunday and hear a burning message. PEOPLE'S INDEPENDENT CHURCH OF CHRIST 18th and Paloma Streets Rev N. P. Gregoes, Pastor If we might use as an indicator of future events, the character of the services held on the first Sunday in the New Year and the degree of enthusiasm displayed by all who were present, might, indeed, predict not for the church alone, but for the entire race a year of happiness and prosperity. Aside from being the first Sunday in the year, it was also Communion Sunday. The Auditorium was almost filled to its capacity. The pastor's sermon was unique in every respect. He spoke, at both the morning and the evening, "Making the Goal This Year". The Following are a few of the many note worthy suggestions which he made: "In all matters, let us not orate so loud and long, but se tose definite goal and bend all our energies on making a real touchdown. Goal No. One. Rather than say out Amens and give vigorous applause t o call the good people and let us go down in our pockets and applaud b saying here is fifty or a hundred dollars as a starter. Goal No. Two. Let ea family resolve to own a home this year or every man and woman begin on some property that he can call his own. Gold No. Three—Let every one resolve to live within his means. The family that spends all that it receives by Goal No. Four. Let us resolve to be real Christians this year. Actually practice the Golden Rule. Shout less and live more". The Christian Endeavor Topic, "Are Card Playing, Dancing and Theatre-Going Wrong for the Christian?" which was so ably discussed by Mr. C. J. Smith, will be thrown open to the house at the Endeavor meeting on Sunday evening at 6 o'clock. Come out and exchange views with us on this very interesting subject. FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH 8th and Towne Ave. Sunday was a glorious day at Historic 8th and Towne Ave. The S. S was largely attended. Although our Quarterlies did not reach us in time everyone seemed interested in the les son. Subject: Christ's Triumphant Eentry; and Bibles were used by all of the classes. Our S. S. is growing each Sunday. At the 11 o'clock service the church was filled to overflowing. Pastor Miller preached from the subject "Why Neglect So Great a Salvation." The greatest Spiritual demonstration was made that has been made. Pastor Miller was Spirit and the demonstration was so great that Pastor Miller found it almost possible to complete his sermon Amens were heard from all over the church, as voices rang forth with old familiar songs. Mrs. Oscar Howard was happily converted and our minds were filled with the joy as he shouted down the aisles. There were eight accessions and 400 communed during the day. Consecration service was held at 6:30 by the A. C. E. League, led by Evangelist Veolia Brown. The League is growing more interesting each Sunday. May I meet you there Sunday, January 11th 1925? Rev. Manuel Hall was the soloist for the evening service. Many hearts were revived as he sang Holy Ghost with Love Divine. Rev. W. H. Green delivered a forceful sermon from the subject "The Two Foundations." The First A. M. E. Church is a church with a hearty welcome. Worship with us.

THE MUSEUM OF THE WESTERN WESTERN WESTERN BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONAL MEN'S CLUB HOUSE The Business and Professional Men's Club of Los Angeles had its grand inspection day when the club house at 1326 E. 15th street was opened for public inspection.

The motto of this club is "Class', Commercial and Social Co-operation." On the morning of June 6, 1910, "The Prentice New Idea Store" threw its doors open to the public at 1013 E. 9th Street with a very small stock which grew ver fast, and in six years the massive van of Dunston Co. moved this store to 1211 S. Central Avenut. Not only did the Prentice carry their stock of goods to this new location, but all the PRToodseggttheteation, but also the majority of their trade. Many bring their customers from the very first day of the opening. They have conducted a clean, clearent legitimate business for which the public is proud. They have not only work the appreciation and admiration of their many loyal customers, which includes people of all races but they are considered ideal neighbors, highly respected and admired by all for their many courtesies and interest shown in all cases, especially where they could be of some service to their fellow, men. After fourteen years of a successful business career this store has moved to 2703 S. Central Avenue, where they hope to more fully establish themselves in three vavc litom-? kfchtp selves in the hearts and minds of the People. The Prentice New Idea Store has a broader vision than ever before. Not only does it hope to broaden its scope, but also make it possible fr others to get a start in the busi- 120 rows of beautiful Central Avenue.

Some say that there is no difference between the old fashion and the modern girl, but we are prone to believe that society has permitted the double standard to protect the vices of men and persecute the slightest offence of woman to the extent that women have deserted the haunts of seclusion where they went to hide their shame, and are along with their better and stronger halves airing their sacred domestic affairs in the courts.

Since the beginning of creation men have so dominated women with the idea that they were created bigger and better and stronger than they, that the woman has contented herself with the theory that she is the weaker sex. In spite of the fact that she has great patience, greater endurance and greater sympathy, she permits herself, too often to be man's prey. There should be no double standard. What is required by society (morally) for women, should be required for men also and until such is demanded the women who have seen the light of a noble and grander day for mankind will wage a hopeless war for the liberation of their less fortunate sisters. A few months ago Los Angeles was swept by a contagion called Mexican Pneumonia. Today the city is called upon to make an educational fight to prevent death by carbon monoxide or dioxide gas poisoning.

Now that the law lmakers of California have again gathered about the legislative table at Sacramento to mend broken links in the chain of legislative affairs, and to, if needed, make new laws for new and everchanging conditions in California the glorious climax of the great West it is up to the Colored American to recognize the fact that he has a representative at Sacramento and that he has not discharged his full duty to himself and Assemblyman Roberts when he votes him into office, and fails to keep in touch with the trend of affairs to the extent that he proves to California law makers that he is not alone interested in protecting the laws of the State, but desires to enjoy the fruits of these laws in like manner. Write your grievances to your Assemblyman. Impress upon his mind that you are expecting him to raise his voice against some of the abuses with regards to segregation in public places and growing discrimination in many lines concerning employment of Colored Americans CANNOT BE IMPROVED "The Most Famous Beauty of China", the book by the Chinese authoress, Shu Chung, is giving American readers a fascinating glimpse of that historic lady, Mistress Yang, who in the Eighth Century A. D., won an empire by her beauty and lost it through love. In commending the book to readers, Herbert A. Giles, the great authority on Chinese literature, says, "A Chinese standard of beauty may be gathered from the following description or a lovely young Empress who flourished in the second century." "Her face was a mixture of glowing sunrise-clouds and snow. were like sparkling ways: she had a rosy mouth, gleaming teeth, long ears, and a taut neck. her jet-black hair shone a mirror, and her gloss and smooth. She had blood enough to color her hat, fat, fat enough to ornament her flesh, flesh enough to cover her bones. Her height was 5 feet four inches, her fingers 3-5-15 inches in length, and her feet 7-1.5 inches in length." Horace Lytel, who "Breaking a Bird Dog" was recently published, was the proud winner of three out of five possible trophies with two of his bird dcs in the Field Trials of the Miami Valley Amateur Field Association. It is interesting to note that both of his winners have won exactly one incoordination with the practice out in his book, "Breaking a Bird Dog", and one of the winners was Smada Byrd berset, who is the heroine of his book in question. In the All Age Stake of the Fieldington Court House, Ohio, last Octo-Trials of the Miami Valley Amateur Field Trial Association, run at Wahmer, Mr. Litle's Hoosier Spot was placed first and Smada Byrd that Spot also won the special bursary for the trophy being donated by the Rotary Club of Washington Court House. All this forms a distinguishing example of the application of the principles enunciated in "Breaking a Bird Dog". "From Isles of the West to Bethlehem," compiled by Grace Warrack, is an exquisite volume of verse and prose and pictures. It has come to the attention of Sister M. Madelava, the Catholic poetess and essayist, who says of it: "From Isles of the West to Bethlehem is an extremely beautiful and unusual book." Writing in the Southern Medical Journal, Dr. John A. Foote, the celebrated medical authority says: "No better literature and few more entertaining books have been written in recent years than "Curses" by Dr. James McCarthy, who said that medicine can "cure" patients while possessing little innate therapeutic virtue will find in this volume some of the mechanics of the philosophy of illogical therapeutics." Where do writers of tales of mystery and crime get the authentic atmosphere of the dark deeds they record? Well, there is a new source of information for them, and for all who are interested in chronicles of crime. In a recent number of a magazine devoted especially to the interests of the writing profession, "The Editor", a correspondent drew attention to the remarkable new work, "Keys to Crookdom". Written by George C. Henderson, saying that, "it is simply packed with information for the writers who have to use criminology in order to work with it, after discussing the psychology of a criminal, outlines the methods of practically every known type of thief, swindler, murderer et al. Police methods are described, and the latest methods for the detection of criminals are explained. To cap the climax the book closes with: an unusually complete "Dictionary of Criminal Slang". DISCRIMINATION IN THE CIVIL SERVICE By Kelly Miller I believe that the public will be interested in the following correspondence setting forth in detail my contention for a square deal to the Negro in the civil service of the government. "September 18, 1923. "My Wm. DuPont." "Mr. Wm. Dudley Foulke Press, National Civil Service Reform League Washington, D. C. "My dear Sir:— "Permit me to call your attention to certain abuses in the classified service of the government which are clearly out of harmony with the spirit and purpose of the Civil Service Reform Movement. Through unfair methods a large element of patriotic and loyal American citizens are being released from the clerical service. When the Civil Service Reform enacted through the useless and patriotic activity of the Civil Service Reform League, every applicant had an equal chance of preferment on the basis of his merit as established by a fair competitive test. I, myself, received an appointment as a result of competitive examination without the least influence of backing. When Theodore Roosevelt, that superlative American, was Civil Service Commis- show under the administration of Cleveland, he insisted that any applicant should have a squared deal, and especially that there should be no discrimination on account of race or color. Many colleges that colored men and women entered the service in these days, and have served the government with service. But at the present, the applicant, and is left at the mercy of the head of the bureau to which he is certified. If I had been required to submit a photograph and my appointment had been based on personal palatitude, I should never have bad the ghost of a chance. What warrant has the Civil Service Commission for presuming to judge the mind's construction in the face? The essential principle of democracy is involved by such presumption for all. If he claimed the photograph is necessary identification of the applicant. The only practical purpose served is to exclude the applicant whose face shows pigmentation. The option of the head of the bu- renn to select from several submitted names works to the same end where the race identity of the contants . . . A highly intelligent clerk in one of the most numerous branches of the government informs me that he cannot recall a single Negro appointee in that department for the past twenty years. The process of elimination is going on in the various branches and bureaus. The Negroes, who entered the service years ago are gradually which acts in Washington, December 16th Undoubtedly the great st abuse of the civil service is to be found in the discrimination against applicants of the colored race. Sometimes ago I write Hon. W. D. Foulke, President of the National Civil Service Reform League, pointing out the basis of this complaint. I regret to say that the letter remains unacknowledged. I beg to hope that you will use your good offices to bring this matter to the attention of the League. (Signed) KELLY MILLER. This letter elicited a single reply stating that the President was ill and would not be present at the meeting and therefore he would not be able to bring the matter to the attention of the League. Along with this announcement of this meeting my letter to Mr. Foulke found its way into the Washington office on December 19, 1911, where the following communication from the President of the Civil Service Commission enclosing a release which has just been issued to the press: My dear Dean Miller: I am enchosing herewith a copy of my statement with respect to the use of photograph in connection with civil service examinations. Fearing that you may have seen only a garbled summary which appeared in one of the Washington papers, I thought you might be interested in reading the interview as prepared. With best wishes for the continued success of your institution. I am. Very sincerely. (Signed) W. C. DEMING. President. Photographe Prevent Impersonation Union of the Civil Service Commission Says Pictures With Examination Used. For Identification Purposes Only In an interview in the Washington newspapers Dean Miller of Howard University criticised the use of photographs in connection with applications for positions under the United States Civil Service. He alleged that his results in discrimination against the Negro. Referring to the interview President William C. Deming of the United States Service said that before photographs or applicants were required cases of impersonation were more than impersonation were very common. Persons who qualified to pass examinations impersonated friends or elatives when the real applicants feared their ability to make a passing grade. Mr. Deming explained that the use of photographs is for identification purposes only and practically renders it impossible for one person to take an examination for another. Before photographs were required it was sometimes necessary for the Commission to prosecute on the ground of empiracy and fraud those who took pictures for others as well as the applicants who coincidentally impersonation. Only recently Mr. Deming states that an employee in one of the departments was saved from what might have been an injustice by reason of the fact that he was able to establish his identity by use of the photograph on file with the Civil Service Commission. To this letter I made the following reply: December 20, 1924 Hon. William C. Deming, President, U. S. Civil Service Commission, Washington, D. C. Dear Shr: — I beg to acknowledge receipt of your favor containing a release concerning use of photographs in connection with Civil Service examinations. the occasion for its issuance is contained following citation from the release itself. "In an interview in the Washington newspapers Dean Miller of Howard University criticised the use of photographs in connection with applications for positions under the United States Civil service. He alleges that it affords in disinclination against the Negro." count of an officially satisfied with this assurance and do not now, and never have lodged complaint against the commission itself. But, as you will readily see, according to the intent of the organic act, the Civil Service Commission is the chief agency relied upon to recruit the classified service of the government, on the basis of the efficiency only, and on primary response to public opinion, which little account of distributive responsibilities. Secretary Doyle states that "the duty of selecting and appointing with sole regard to merit and fitness involves upon the appointing officer". The evident facts in the case prevent me from accepting Mr. Doyle's further assurance: "The actions of appointing officers in the past have not been such as to indicate that they have made selections for other considerations than merit and fitness. Numerous instances of desirability on account of who have successfully passed the examination, are well known to all who have taken pains to inquire into the facts. There are instances of light complexion colored applicants, whose racial identity could not be easily determined by photograph, being humiliated by flat refusal of appointment and assignment when appearing for work. It is falling out through death, resignation and retirement. Any stream with outlet but without intake will soon run out but without intake will soon run credit upon the service. In intelligence, industry an deficiency they have measured up to most exacting governmental standards. Notwithstanding restrictions of population and prescription of number of them in the service, they have high rank in the Service and are now being retired with honor after having reached the statutory limit of age. But at the present trend and rate of things, the Negro government clerk will soon be a thing of the past like the memory of the Negro congressman in the balmy days of long ago. Negro laborers and messengers are being appointed by white politicians for political and personal reasons. The caste system is developing in the government service under our very eyes. Roughly领会 the classified service will coincide with one color line. Only unfortunate white men temporarily embarrassed will be found below the level, and only the occasional colored man, the whilom beneficially of political fortune, will be found above. White men in the United States fixes the rules and regulations for entrance upon Civil Service. It is, indeed, a poor sportman who will not play the game according to rules, when he himself has the regulation of the rules. All Americans of requisite mathematical are invited to compete for clinical positions with absolute disregard of race and color. The successful Negro competitor finds his hopes frustrated by a subterfuge. Scores of individual instances can be furnished to support this assertion. The would-be Negro applicant has become disheartened by repeated disappointment, rebuilf and humiliation, and does not deem it worth while to participate in government by continuing this practice is intimidating the Negro and cheating him out of his last dues. More than a generation ago the Civil Service Reform League aroused the conscience of the Nation to the necessity of Civil Service law to save the government service from degeneration and corruption. This organization contained in its membership, then as new, men of the highest intelligence, integrity and 'devotion to the public good. The Negro appeals to the American sense of fair play which has never failed when the issues have been squared presented to it. I am bringing the attention of our Chairman of the Civil Service Reform League, believing that this patriotic organization will be as much concerned in the righteous enforcement of the Civil Service law as it was in having it placed upon the statute books in the first instance. Yours truly. (Signed) KELLY MILLER. This letter elicited no response. About the middle of August, 1924 the public press announced complaints against violations of the civil service regulations in connection with Post Office department. I took full adamption of the instructions of President Coolidge pointing out the greatest evil of discrimination on account of race and color. This letter elicited the following replies: The White House, Washington. D. C. August 19, 1924. "My dear Mr. Miller: "Your letter of August 14th to the President came here in his absence, and I am sending it, with enclosure, to the Civil Service Commission; with the request for a report on the same, I shall bring the whole matter to the President's attention just as soon as possible after his return. We are trying hard as possible to make his life the Vermont prize, but least some rest and I am sure you would not insist on my forwarding this material to him there under the circumstances. I thank you very much for bringing the entire business to our attention. Very truly yours. (Sd) RUDOLPH FOSTER, Executive Clerk. In reply you are informed that the general rule requiring photographs of all applicants was adopted as a means to prevent impersonation in examinations and to insure that the person examined is the one who reports for appointment. This requirement was prescribed only after every consideration with a view to guarding against impersonation, which means that the person presenting with impersonation having been found unsatisfactory and inadequate. The duty of selecting and appointing with sole regard to merk and fitness devolved upon the appointing officer. The actions of appointing officers in the past have not been such as to indicate that they have made selections for other considerations than merit and fitness, to controlling factors under the civil service rules. By direction of the Commission: Here the matter rested for a time. On December 8th, I received announcement of a meeting of the National Civil Service Reform League to be held in Washington on December 16th. I utilized the occasion to write to each person named on the program the following: 'Tzqi '01 'qququququ' Dear Sir: I note that on are to be on the Committee on Arrangements for the National Civil Service Reform League perfectly plain that the appointing officers, if so disposed, could make use of photographs to prejudice of applicants. This is too much attention to need to curry up ministerial speciality on an issue of sensitive public feeling. If you will consult the files of appointees in the early days of the Civil Service Commission you will find a large number of successful colored applicants who secured positions through the commission. In later years, however, since the inauguration of the system of the photographic identification, comparatively few have been selected to the general classified service. During the past thirty years the Negro race has made tremendous strides in intellectual progress and attainment. But, in the meantime, the number of appointments of Negro clocks in the Civil Service departments at Washington has dwindled almost to the point of evasionment. I beg to make the suggestion that, instead of photographies for identification of applicants, you use the fingerprint app, which is more accurate, and more efficient means of racial identity. This method is now used in the army and in the distribution of file numbers, who are often mistaken of applicants. I am taking up this subject with the United States Civil Service Commission not so much because of its direct responsibility for the abuses complained of, but this Commission was established by Congress upon the moral demand of an approved public sentiment, to eliminate discrimination and the unfair treatment of the government. The parties agreed gain no relief by shifting responsibility from one agency to another. The Civil Service Commission stands responsible for any abuses which the entire colored race complains, you will be interested in eradicating the evil. In the public mind, the Civil Service Commission stands responsible for any abuses which frustrate the selection of candidates "for other considerations than merit and fitness." I am sure that you will agree with me that all genuine Americans would be put to shame to know that the federal government, through any of its agencies, is not dealing with all citizens on the basis of common honesty. Yours truly. (Signed)’ KELLY MILLER. ‘This gives an exhibit of the entire procedure up to date in which I have endeavored to secure fair play for the Negro in the Civil Service of the government. 28 1924 COMMENTS BY WHEATON Washington, D. C. Society, is all agog over the marriage of one of its social debunts to one of the attaches of the Persian legation at the Capital. "Love will find a way", and if left alone will as a general thing, find the right way. There is a rancher in the San Juanquin Valey who married a comely mulatto; he is a man of the person he is seeking to annul the marriage because his wife will not deny that she has Colored blood in her veins and refuses to disregard her former friends among them. It was the sarcasms of his acquaintances which caused his knees to weaken. Were he a man of of stalwart opinion h would not try to creat out under fire. Mr. Gribble does not realise that the American white man is of "Duck Warrior". Surely he has never visited the United States and seen the millions of men and women—classified as Colored—who show hardly a trace or African blood. IT is far better that those young girls be escorted openly and married lawfully by those dusky sisters than that numberless un-named children should be the fruits of bliss loves. It improves the strain. But then. It is utterly foolish to or the subject as. Dame Nana abiter of such affairs will tak of such matters and that, rest of any law or laws which state exact.

ASSEMBLY 1122 East 33rd Street } The regular religious services have continue! at this assembly, ulthough we fail to get a note of it on the list as chureh news, and where to go to church, Nevertheless, Goll has not failed! to meet his people at every hour of worship, since December 1, Special meetings have been in sue- cession, for a deeper spiritual life and out pouring of God's spirit and power for rivers of living waters. Evangelists C. W. Raymond and O. F._ Dean; Assistant, Sister Cora May Bailey. Sunday morning, December 20th, the service was glorious from Sun- diay school hour on through the meet- ing. While Evangelist. Raymond brought the message with inspiring and startling words of the gospel from Col, 1:20, His text, “The Recon- ceiling Work of Christ”, with trem- bling words, pierced the hearts of the hearers. These meetings «re to be continued evegy night until January and, We are all expecting a mighty out pouring of Go's spirit: during these services, The pastor, Elder Douglad wishes the public to attend and share a part of God's blessings. We also were refreshed BY the coming of a man of God whose name is C. W, Arnte, from Oakland, Calif., one of the oldest brothers in the min. istry that we know of. His age is 103 years. The dear Lord Jesus re- ‘vealed himself to him and showed him ‘to be baptized in His name, and mar- velously healed him of rupture which the doctor had given up, Truly his ‘testimonial was full of life. SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH 740 So. Maple Avenue Sunday school was largely attend- ed and much interest manifested in the Christmas lesson. In the absence of our superintend- ent on account of illness, the school was conducted by Bro. R. L. Belt. The 11 o'clock services were a treat to the large congregation present. A solo by Miss Griffith ahd a few time- ly remarks by Dr. Carter preceded the great sermon by the pastor. ‘The B. Y. P. U] rendered a very good program as usual. The pastor was back at his post at the evening giving to us the last of a series of sermons on the letter to the Seven Churches, which was a treat to all that heard Christmas tree and exercises will be featured at the church Thursday evening. An excellent program has been arranged. ‘Much progress is being made to- ward the dedication of our new church on the first Spnday of next year.

Central Colored Market In appreciation of the trade of our group at Pico and Central Avenue, the proprietor of the same has decided to dedicate this market to our group. Aside from that he proposed to provide for them first grade goods at prices which they have not herefore enjoyed. To further the plan of benefits the Central Colored Market is asking for your support by patronizing the race papers. We want to say fight here that this is an advanced step which is appreciated to the utmost. There are numerous businesses conducted by white men who are waxing fat, but who do not give to your own papers the least attention. Our advice is to patronize those who show their appreciation by at least placing their advertisement in your own papers. FORMER RESIDENT OF LIT TLE ROCK, ARKANSAS, PASSES AWAY Mr. John C.

If You Fail To Read THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE You May Never Know It Happened Mrs. Scipio Thompson accompanied by her daughter, Clea and son, Jack, are visitors over the holidays from Oakland, Calif. INVESTMENTS By: A. Hartley Jones Money can be made in two ways. It can be earned by labor. It can be multiplied by investment. Every man can be a successful investor, if he adopts the plan that eliminates all chance or speculation, such a plan, if carried out without stop or hesitation, will lead to financial independence. People are becoming to realize more that investing money is business in itself. It calls for a special knowledge of the principles of investing, a knowledge of the particular investment under consideration. This M. in turn calls for an analysis of the corporation back of the security; is present physical and financial condition; the volume of business done; the demand for its product, market conditions, ets. The investor is a buyer. Securities are a commodity, the same as merchandise. If the investor's knowledge or the advise upon which he acts is sound, he buys to advantage; if it is meagre, faulty, or if he is ill advised he is apt to buy unwisely. Neglect or failure to apply efficient safeguards in the conduct of man's personal finances is almost certain to result in disaster. Its alluring promises of wealth from a shall sum in some new and unproven business causes him to invest; he is most likely to regret his poor judgment when it is too late; just as countless others, whom, in the aggregate, have lost vast sums of money in the same manner. The realization that competent knowledge in financial matters is essential for safety and to insure the maximum return on the investment, is growing clearer every day. Every man knows that money makes money, that it can be made to increase rapidly only when properly invested. This thought, then, should always be supermost whenever investing is seriously considered. The temptation to ignore the safety-first principal is strong. Hence, the great number of investors who were lose their money on what they were led to believe was "a good thing", but which in reality was just plain gambling, with the odds, in most cases, hopelessly against them. The desire of the Negro to become a part of a business enterprise owned and operated by his and that will raise the economic status of his people is a natural desire. The wily white stock promoter as well as the Negro promoter knows the psychology of the Negro mind. Therefore, when a new "enterprise" is to be "financed" that will open the door of opportunity to a down trodden people. A glowing tale of the tremendous possibilities for creating positives for members of the group is presented rather than a statement. The investor's problem is always to obtain the greatest degree of safety and largest earning power consistent with sound business principles. To him the fiel dof finance is mysterious, and he may be ultra conservative, and miss many splendid investment opportunities, or be ignorant of values and conditions and lose money. Within recent years there has developed amongst the group an effort to protect individual investors from coming in contact with stock seling concerns whose methods have been questionable. Many have been saved and thousands of dollars have been invested in corporate institutions of our own which in turn have reinvented the money in businesses worth while. Day by day, the opportunity for inducing the Negro investor to risk his small earning by investing in questionable enterprises is growing less through educational methods - being advanced by such concerns as the National Business League and other worth while institutions and it is only a matter of time when with the support and cooperation of the entire group that present day risks will be eliminated and worth while institutions be discernible from the wolf in sheep clothing type that is today robbing Negro investors of his earnings at the expense of worth while Most Cherished among the Gifts bestowed by the Passing Year is the memory of the pleasant relations with those whom we have been privileged to serve.

Visitors, Mrs. Baldwin, Mrs. Anderson and Mrs. Tucker, Club met with Mrs. Green, December 18th, 1123 Eas22nd Street. Owing to the inclementy of the weather, only a few were present and a short session was, held. This marked the last meeting of the year. A sumptuous repost was served at both meetings. Club adjourned to meet with Mrs. Dr. Eva Young, E 34th Street, second Friday in January, 1926 LOUIE AND BOB Louie Renner and Bob Hawkins have opened a first class and up to date meat market on 20th. St. at Hooper Ave. The name of these two men in business is synonymous to real and first class service, to the best there is for their patrons. Mr Renner is well known to the people on the East Side and Bob Hawkins has long ago established himself into the hearts of all who know him. Both of these gentlemen know every angle of the meat business they are proven friends of the race. We had occasion to pass by this market a few days ago, and what we saw was a revelation indeed. This market has no peer for cleanliness and the grade of meats carried. It is equipped with every modern convenience. This modern shop has installed the marvelous Cyclops Cooling system and probably has the largest and most complete ice box in the entire city. It is so arranged that a car load of meat can easily be cared for in the same. By all means pay a visit to to the Meat Market conducted by Louie and Bo. 3 Federated Club News Mary E. Reed The clubwomen's Fashion Revue was indeed a success. Every detail in decoration, light and color scheme was well carried out, and too much praise cannot be given to Mrs. Ada Jackson, Chairman, who kept things moving without a hitch, and whose enturing efforts made the show the success it was. Mr. J. M. Edwards, the husband of Mrs. Elizabeth Edwards, has indented himself to the clubwomen. In every emergency he is right on hand to help with the heavy work that would be impossible for the women. The spot light at the show was also handled by him, and the charge was simply, we thank you. Mere words cannot express such loyalty. Most of the clubs sent beautiful models, especially mentioned the Coterie Club of San Bernardino, who sent their president in one of the most beautiful models. Each club was heralded by Miss Jane Christian, who held placards of their names. Mrs. J. C. Banks made a charming, able mistress of ceremonies, and the program consisted of a vocal solo by Mrs. Bertha Spruill and Mrs. Viola Sime, and a piano solo. The presidents' Council met at the home of Mrs. Homer Dean, last Sunday. The important business was arranging for the Mme. Ada Bell Griffin, reader, in recital Thursday evening, January 7th, at the A. M. E. Zien Churen.

Boston and Co., called the Dett Concert Co., in southern meadows, and the male quartette in a number, Mrs. Charlotte Bass was the speaker of the afternoon introduced by Mrs. Ollie Martin, Dr. Chuck Hudson made an appeal for the N.
