Ministers Urge Conference For Racial Amity Phone: VANDIKE 9244 Folowing closely the pattern laid by a number of southern cities in fostering a more amicable relationship between the Negro and white races, the Los Angeles Methodist Ministr's Association yesterday adopted a resolution urging the City Ministerial Union to appoint a committee to consult with the Mayor and City Council upon the best methods of preventing racial differences in this city. The resolution, according to Rev. F. M. Larkin, executive secretary of the California State Church Federation, was actuated by the recent disbandment of the southern section of the city over colorism and property in the district. Another factor was a meeting held Sunday by several hundred colored people at Wesley Chapel, Methodist Episcopal Church, at which they deplored the treatment they had been accorded in several instances and adopted resolutions to be presented to the Mayor, Chief of Police and Governor.—L. A. Daily Times, Oct. 20, 1925. TAKES JOB AS GUARD Age 150 Constantinople, Turkey, Oct. 19. (By A. N. P.) At the age of 150, Zaro Agha, who is said to be the oldest living man on the world, has gleefully accepted an offer from the Constantinople municipal authorities to join the staff of guards at one of the imperial palaces. Still hale and hearty, Zaro is looking forward to his new job with gusto. He has been married eleven times and is devoted to his present wife who is only 27. The only blot on Zaro's horizon is his son, aged 99, who thinks he is too old to earn a livelihood. "I don's see why I should have to keep him," Zaro indignantly declares, "If I can work, surely the boy can." Quartet Returns From Europe The Knoxville College Male Quartet spent the latter part of the summer in the British Isles. They left New York, July 25, and returned to the same port September 10th. During the time they were abroad they gave a concert almost every evening. While they visited all sections of the British Isles, perhaps their greatest work was done in Scotland, in and around Glasgow and Edinburgh. The Quartet was cordially and enthusiastically received by the Britishers. At all the concerts the applause was exceedingly generous. Despite the fact that they were in a country at a time of year when there are few concerts or lectures, the quartet was able to draw some large crowds. There were several audiences from a thousand and to fifteen hundred people. In the city of Edinburgh, one of the great intellectual centers of the world, sixteen hundred people came out to hear the quartet on a rainy night. Several afternoon concerts were all under the direction of the British Broadcasting Company, whose headquarters are in London. The closing concert of the tour was given in Southampton, England. There the concert was the most and most enthusiastic audiences. The quartet sang in a hal but a short distance from the old Pilgrim Church. At Southampton the singers took boat for France where they spent a week visiting places of interest before returning to America. The personnel of the quartet is as follows: Mr. Lowell Peterson, first tenor, from Little Rock, Ark.; Mr. Beady Mann, second tenor, from Caryville, Ga.; Mr. Newell Fitzpatrick, harpist, from Somerset, Ky.; Mr. Andrew Paul, bass, from Knoxville, Tennessee. The quartet will spend the winter giving concerts in Northern and Eastern states. The College is planning a tour for them through Southern States during April and May. It is probable that they will make a tour to the Pacific Coast summer. "EVERY EFFORT TO PUNISH LYNCHERS" "EVERY EFFORT TO PUNISH LYNCHERS" Bv: WILLIAM PICKENS (For the Associated Negro Press) Applesauce! And yet we have seen a statement under this heading printed, sometimes without comment, in many Negro weeklies. Those "good" white folks who want to hide the shame of Georgia for lynching an insane Negro, are cleverly broadcasting this "promise" to punish, for the sake of appearances. We are glad that at least some white folk in Georgia are sufficiently ashamed of the brutal deed to want to make the rest of the world think that Georgia is going to punish somebody for it. But Georgia is not going to punish anybody for this lynching. Georgia has punished nobody for about 500 lynchings. "Oh, but they are offering a reward of $500"—Well, if I had the money, I could seriously offer a reward of $500-000 for every one of the lynchers that Georgia will punish. It is easy to offer rewards that you know will never have to be paid. If Georgia really wanted to punish anybody, it would not be necessary to offer any rewards, but only to send two or three even third-class detectives to Milledgeville, who had a few days could have the name and address of every member of any consequence who invaded that insane asylum. Even some of those crazy people could tell who some of the mob were. Why do colored newspapers "bite" at this camouflaging propaganda emanating from Atlanta? I do not mean that they should not print it, but they should not print it without commenting on it in a way to show that they are not fooled,—and in a way not to fool other colored folk. But the average colored man will not be fooled. He knows how insincere is the dominating influence of the South. They are always raving in that section against the horrible crime of rape. And when a white man in North Carolina is convicted of raping a little innocent colored working girl of 14 years, who he himself says fought him like a young tigress, the court gives him a six month's sentence, and the lawyers are trying to get that suspended! It's a lie about their being opposed to rape. They are opposed to equality, even legal, political, and industrial equality for black people. For every case of alleged or actual rape a black man against a white woman, in the south, there are 25 cases of actual rape of colored women by white men. And the hypocrites know it—and they know that not one time out of a thousand will any white man there be punished for either lynching a Negro man or raping a Negro woman or girl. Colored people have tried to pass an anti-lynching bill in Congress. If Georgia was sincerely opposed to lynch law, she would have instructed her representatives to support and not oppose this bill. Richmond, Va., Oct. 21. (By A. N. P.) Excavators cutting out a foundation in the rear of the old Hentice jail here unearthed an underground prison. About ten feet below the surface of the earth were a row of cells built of solid stone with heavy iron gratings as the only opening between cells. Attached to one of the heavy iron doora which evidently led to the outside was a pair of old fashion handcuffs and a pair of ankle chains. Many people are of the belief that it is an old dungeon used in connection with the Hentice jail years ago. All records pertaining to the prison have been searched, but thus far nothing has been found that would throw any light as to the age of this underground jail. It is believed to be more than two hundred years old. Coincidentally, it is in the vicinity of the old Libby Prison that figured so prominently in the Civil War. LOS ANGELES, CALIF., OCTOBER 23, 1925 Louisville, Ky., Oct. 20. (By A. N. P.) For the second time in two weeks the home of a colored resident in a district limited to whites, was dynamited Saturday. The house is occupied by C. G. Sayles. Investigators found the remains of a fuse inserted in the concrete foundation. Neither O. or Mrs. Sayles were injured. Damage amounting to $700 was done. The arbitration for residential segregation continues in the city, despite the Supreme Court decision against the practice which affected a case in this city some years ago, and regardless of the opposition of some white leaders. "VOICE OF JACOB; HANDS OF ESAU" W. I. DAVIS WRITES TO THE 17,000 COLORED E M- PLOYES OF THE PULL- MAN COMPANY. FELLOW WORKERS Referring to the efforts of the American Federation of Labor (using one of your own race as a paid tool) to Unionize Porter and other Negro employees of the Pullman Company, the following words of friendly caution are sincerely offered in order that you may not be deceived by the "Voice of Jacob and the hands of Esau." Our most valuable asset, proved by 57 years association, is the good will and helping hand of The Pullman Company which has aided wonderfully in the progress of our Race. Would it not be foolish to trade that valuable asset for some extravagant promises made by an irresponsible stranger? Because of our long unbroken friendly association with the Company we have come to feel that the position of Pullman Porter belongs to our race. Let us not jeopardize our inheritance to that position. Let us not sell our birthright for a mess of pottage. Let us not betray our best friends, or change the long existing friendly relations for those of antagonism. Let us not change our old friends whom we know for new friends whom we do not know, or become the dupes of those whose smile is malice ill concealed. How does it come about that the American Federation of Labor, which for long years seorned affiliation with us and spat upon us, is now so anxious to bring us into camp? I will tell you "how come." Negro workmen from the farms and cotton fields of the South, have, during and since the World War invaded the industrial sections of the North by the thousands They have entered into direct competition with white Unionists for attractive jobs, and being independent workers free from the restrictive rules of Unionism, which would have held them back, have proved their efficiency and progressed rapidly in the positions which they obtained. Now the American Federation of Labor fearing such unfettered competition, seeks to bring those colored workers into camp, where they will be kept under the control of restrictive Union rules governing industrial apprenticeships and other time serving requirements, or working as common laborers, or that their progress will be checked, and having them reduced to the dead level of malery they will cease to be connectors for good jobs. The porters are merely an incident in this conspiracy, the plot being to control all of the whore workers and force them into subsidiary affiliation with the American Federation of Labor, where, being in a hopeless minority without voice, influence or power, they will be relegated to the back seats while the white Uniform gatherers, who are the porters, turn over money to those who will put upon dressed men shoes and lead them into the crowd. Sunday was Women's Day at Trinity and the women conducted the services the entire day. Besides with the Sunday School the Superintendent and other male officers readily gave way to the women and they handed the service with credit. Mrs. C. D. Kobinson, president of the Woman's Foreign and Homo Mission Convention of Southern California, addressed at the morning service and used for her subject "Facing the Future," and treated it in a manner becoming a prophetess. One member was added to our church at this service of which we are very proud. Dr Ruth J. Temple was the speaker at the afternoon meeting. "Service" was the subject of her address, and in her quiet and unassuming way she held the attention of her audience during the entire discourse. She referred to our Saviour as having come to earth to serve, and MNE. MOZELLE TE OUTLEY what joy we would receive in following His example. It should be the object of one's life in render to humanity whatever aid possible. Mrs. Charlotte Spear-Basa, the editor of the Californias Eagle, was the speaker at the evening service. She spoke on "Woman" and her address was a source of inspiration to all her hearers. The historical facts that she presented were very interesting and instructive. She set forth those ideals that are true to womanhood and urged us to forever hold up that standard, and by so doing we would not only retain our place in the world as women, but would elevate those with whom we come in contact. The music at each service was above the ordinary. The sola and other special musical numbers representing the various churches of the city were highly appreciated. The women's chorus was a treat within itself and the "Woman's Day" song composed by Michelle O'Outley was apprehended, apprehended and was sung by the audience with great applause. At the close of the evening service the affection of Man's Day and Women's Day were announced, and the women were pleased to learn that they had raised nearly twice as much money as the man. REV. J. A. H. ELBRIDGE Pastor ANGELUS FUNERAL HOME MAKES TEMPTING OFFER TO STUDENTS SEEKING A REAL OPPORTUNITY Los Angeles, Calif. October 16, 1925. SO, CAL. ALUMNI ASS'N. MRS. W. L. GORDON, President. Dear Friends: The Angelus Funeral Home is desirous of offering a prize of $100.00 to be divided between the Negro Boy and Girl who is a student of a High School who will have the best record for department at the end of this present term. We want the Southern California Alumni Association to take charge of the affair and appoint a Committee from the Association consisting of 8 or 5 persons whose duty it shall be to visit the High School and ascertain the department and class records of the Negro students, and keep a close tab on them as to their department and class standing for the balance of the term, reporting on those whose department and class records are not just what it should be to the Parents as well as to the Alumni Association, so steps can be taken to help them improve their department and class record, and at the end of the term this Committee will recommend the boy and girl for the prize. We are doing this with the hope that it will stimulate a desire among our high school students to improve their deportment both in school and in public. Hoping your Association will put their stamp of approval on this, and make any suggestions that you may see fit for its perfection and successful execution. With your advice, suggestions and co-operation we feel sure that it will culminate in great good for our students, and the race generally. We will be very glad to hear from you at an early date with your approval and any suggestions you may want to offer. Yours for higher education and greater character building. The Palm Beach Funeral Home. By: L. G. ROBINSON, Pres. L. BOWDOIN, Secy. 1030 E. Jefferson St. Los Angeles, Calif. We, classes six and seven, of the Sunday School of the Saints Home Church of God take great pleasure in welcoming our pastor and beloved father back to us. He went away "How long, Oh, Cataline", will some people preach race pride, and practice race discrimination A few days ago we asked Mr. Hefflin of the Hefflin Manufacturing Company, what response he was getting from this community for his assiduous application to business in behalf of members of his group, and his answer was discouraging indeed. He said, that in spite of the fact that he was employing from ten to fifteen youths of our group that in every instance the sources from which he expected encouragement come discouragement. In one case one of the leading attorneys of the city advised his client not to take stock in this company; in another a man of the group stated that he had money, a plenty, but he was old and could not see wherein he could be benefitted by an investment in the Hefflin Manufacturing Company. Now, Afro-Americans of Los Angeles and Southern California, your preachment amounts to nothing in the eyes of the world when you fail to give your support to a young man like Mr. Hefflin who is sacrificing his youth to do something for his race. Mr. Hefflin did not come to you with bright figures on paper but with a manufacturing company capable of turning out finished makes of furniture manufactured by any lumber. He has plants at 1020 E. 798 E. 16th Street, and an office and show room at 3425 South Central Avenue, where from ten to fifteen boys, girls, and men of our group are employed. It will be a colossal disgrace if Afro-Americans fail to support this institution by digging up the needed cash to operate the same until it becomes self supporting, and some white firm is forced to take it over. Mr. Hefflin has information to the effect that group leaders are advising clients to let their cash remain in banks to be used for the development of institutions which floors they are unable to sweep Oh, ye of little faith! For years you have bought and sold imaginary stock, and now, when the opportunity comes for you to develop a place where the boys and girls of your group may secure employment of a dignified order you fail to respond. Pioneer Citizen Dies Suddenly James H. Bate, 65 years. of age, died suddenly at his home in Grand Avenue, Monday, October 20th. Death was caused by an attack of acute indigestion. Mr. Bate is a pioneer; for more than twenty years he has been a consistent member of the Second Baptist Church and so county employee of high standing, and good reputation. He is survived by a loving wife, Mrs. Minnie Bate, two brothers, a niece, other relatives, and a host of friends. Funeral service will be held from First A. M. E., Eighth and Towne Avenue, Rev. T. L. Griffith, presiding, Saturday at 1 P. M. The Zodiac Art Club met at the home of Mrs. Lucile Young, 2509 Naulim. The girls spent a delightful evening sewing and discussing things for the future. The girls were served a lovely luncheon which was enjoyed by all. Saturday night, October 17th the Twelfth Ward Improvement Association met in a business session and in honor of the return of the president, Rev. W. W. Heller from the East. At this meeting some very important and interesting discussions were held and Hodge and Hudson were wiston to the Association and spoke in behalf of the N. A. A. C. P. Mass Meeting held at the Weoling Chapel Church. The organization went a new appering and endorsing the mass meeting. When several Americans sailed recently from a port in the United States, and offered their services to the French, engaged in war with the Riffs, a well known writer, who reaches millions of readers daily, said that the young men were crusaders engaged in a war for the preservation of civilization. This column said in comment that they were violators of the law of international ethics, in as much, that the United States was not at war with the Riffs, and as Americans they were warring on a peaceful people 0000 Their activities in the bombing of Riff villages, murdering women and children, has brought maledictions which may lead to more drastic measures. Read what Senator John W. Hareld of Oklahoma says: "I see no law or ethics for the conduct of these American aviators. I would not be averse to a new law making such conduct a serious crime—for it is a crime." They are a disgrace to civilization and they bring shame upon the good name of the United States." And Col. E. H. Hartney, who was a former commander of the pursuit squadron, A. E. F., says: "A disgrace to aviation and certainly un-American. I believe that the activities of these men in bombing an army without aircraft is a cause not their own will be a black mark against them for the rest of their lives. Their best course is to stay out of this country henceforth." Murder will never forward civilian It is with pride—for which we make no apology—that we mention as one of the most valuable race assets on this coast the name of Mrs. Beatrice Cannady. Barrister; Editor; and one of the most valiant advocates for racial equality in the whole United States. It is becoming known, nationally, that through her diplomatic and intelligent handling of delicate racial situations Oregon is rapidly divesting itself of the anti-racial bugaboo. When matters which affect the race are to be discussed she is always called in consultation, and her word carries weight. Whenever matters of statewide significance, in which the race is concerned, needs adjustment the Governor seeks her opinion. Being an erudite lawyer and a trenchant writer has not robbed Mrs. Cannady of all of the charms of femininity. She loves some takes a-prideful interest in her two boys and is the intelligent life of any company. She adjusted labor conditions and better sanitary conditions of the home occupied by the workers in the lumber camps and contract camps where numbers of Colored workers reside with their families. With all she works quietly and without fuss, but accomplishes wonderful things. If you don't believe the writer, send to the office of the N. A. A. C. P. for verification. The Governor, Richardson, of California is down in the south of the State and it is stated that he will look over some of the aspirants which he has under consideration for Municipal Judgeships. Account to the dope, he has a life-like photograph of E. Burton Ceruti, attorney at law and one of the leading lights of the California Bar. 0-00-0 It tickles one, raises the "risibilities" to hear one of the pan-handlers berate a candidate and then walk around the block and catch him emerging from that candidate's headquarters. It's funny but it's sad and the political status of the Negro here in San Francisco will never amount to a "Tinker's" — well, you know what, until it ceases. Los Angeles County Baptist Ministars Union was largely attended on Monday, 18th inst. Rev. Dr. E. E Driver and Rev. Marshall gave an exhibition on their sermons of the previous Sunday. Dr. Driver used as his subject, "Love." His outlines were coagulating and logical. Rew. Marshall's subject, "The Gospel of Chiae," was very instructive as he fills and again pointed out the relationship of the gospel to the Church of Christ. Rew. Hines and Ready gave a very interesting talk on their life to the National Baptist Convention. If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened The Harris Safety First Check System IT CAN BE DONE YOU CAN NOW WRITE A CHECK THAT WILL BE ABSOLUTELY SAFE The Harris Safety-First Check CAN NEITHER BE RAISED, ALTERED, FAKED, NOR OVERDRAWN ONE OF THE GREATEST INVENTIONS OF THE 20th CENTURY 100% SAFETY 100% Read Mr. Robert M. Cox Personal Opinion of the HARRIS SAFE-TY-FIRST Check System. I have noticed from articles penned by both the Pinkerton and Burns agencies, that the greatest problems they have to contend with when it comes to bad checks, is the case with which experts raise the value of same, but I am very positive that this bad feature as well as others are absolutely eliminated by your system. See what he Thinks it will do for the American Public. It simply narrows itself down to the point where one must be honest in order to write or cash a check if issued under your system. This is something that as a Public Accountant I have had to deal with to a large extent and personally I feel very grateful to you as the inventor of a system that will cause less work, worry and gray hairs. Consequently I do not hesitate to most heartily endorse your SAFTY-FIRST Check System, and hope to see it in the very near future in universal use.

The vivid history of the organization was reviewed. For forty-five minutes the books were thrown open and in this short time Fifty Thousand Dollars worth of stock was subscribed and the books were again closed. And the peoples' faith in themselves was strengthened, and new zeal to demonstrate to the world that Black people are capable of climbing the economic ladder of fame was established. Thursday evening, October 22nd was the last opportunity to buy stock in The World's Safety-First Mortgage & Security Corporation. After this date the company's books closed. This is the largest, and promises to be the richest, corporation owned and controlled by Black people in the world. The corporation will have at its disposal, to build big business, One Hundred Thousand Dollars; and then the gong for actual clean-cut business competition will sound forth telling the world that Black people are no longer mere consumers, but producers. AU TIRES AGAIN ADVANCE Like a bolt out of the clear sky came the general announcement of fifteen and twenty per cent in some instances increase i tires this week. Rather tough picking for everyone and particularly those who have not got in their winter supply. A peculiar situation at present exists. One witnesses the spectacle of a reduction in sale price of new cars and an increase in tires. The situation created spells the difference in the control of raw material. Autos with the exception of rubber can and are manufactured and built from raw material products at home. Tires are manufactured here but raw rubber, which is the main factor constructing of a vehicle, is purchased from England who controls the rubber market. There is no reason for rubber advancing to the exhorbant price charged today for the raw material except for the fact that after all it looks like England intends to make America pay her war debts and this country finds itself in no position to combat the situation. Those who own autos will in order as not to be seriously affected have to either ride less or get smaller cars where the upkeep is not so great. Don't blame the American manufacturer for he has no part regulating the increase except by the price charged for the purchase of the raw material. Some day things may be different and we who are the largest consumers of rubber in the world may find ourselves in a different and better position than that of being led around by the nose pinched by foreign extortionists. AMERICAN WOODMEN HOME COMING GALA EVEN Membership Drive is Launched The Los Angeles camps of the American Woodmen commonly referred to as "The Giant of Negro Fraternals," celebrated their annual Harvest Home Coming last Wednesday night at the Washington and Central Hall. A capacity crowd composed of Woodmen and their guests participated in the festivities and partook of the bountiful repast served Addresses touching upon the activities of the Green Cross Nurse Corps of the Order were made by Mrs. R. Banks and Mrs. Gertrude Matthies, president and treasurer respectively of the corps and by laylayers recently visited the Woodmen office in Denver, Colorado. B. W. Graham, State Supervisor of the order in California and a member of the Supreme Camp Auditing Committee gave a resume of the organization's progress and quoted extracts from "Statistics of Fraternal Societies" the official organ of the National Fraternal Congress showing the American Woodmen as one of the ninety-six millionaire fraternal societies in the United States The order admitted 17,513 members in 1924 with insurance amounting to $8,088,000.00 in round numbers.

P. Shaw, Pastor Sunday will be Young People's Day at Wesley. Hear our great Junior Chair render the music and a sermon by Rev. Charles Hampton in the morning and address by Mr. S. B. Danley, Probation Officer, in the evening. Special music. Last Sunday was a oanner day. The new unit system of collections actually doubled our regular offerings for Third Sundays. The sermon by Rev. A. L. Scott of Oakland was one that will be long remembered. The pastor preached at the evening hour. Wesley is in for more progress this year than in the last five years. Come and see the general improvement in our services. Get in the band wagon and let us go up together. THE GOSPEL TENT The Chautauqua Gospel tent meetings closed last Sunday night, and the services have been transferred to the Berean Church of Free Seventh Day Adventists located at 1446 West 36th Place. Evangelist J. W. Manns of Sawannah, Georgia, president of the General Assembly of Free Seventh Day Adventists, is in charge of the church temporarily, and will conduct meetings beginning with next Sunday night. Already, the membership of the little church has begun to grow. When president Manns finishes his work of setting things in order in this church, he will return to his office at Sawannah, and his brother Elder C. G. Manns will become pastor of the Berean Church. The public is invited to attend all the services during the coming week. Song service at 7:30 and preaching at 8 o'clock. Sabbath (Saturday) service: Sabbath School at 10 A. M. and preaching at 11:15 A. M. PLEASANT HILL IN ITS THIRTEENTH ANNIVERSARY God has so wonderfully blessed Pleasant Hill with the privilegedge of helping herald the Gospel to all the land. This strange and rejected gospel that God gave Rozier, has got another hearing. For ten consecutive nights the hungry and starved hearts of Brooklyn, New York were fed with this simple, practical, powerful gospel. The children, the learned and unlearned all ate eagerly from the same table. Yes, God won sweeping victory in New York. Home' again, sword in hand he is attacking the enemy as never before. Even more strange and powerful are the truths coming from his lips. For the last two weeks Pleasant Hill has been celebrating her thirteenth mile stone—hard and pathetic, yet successful, made easy by the Gospel light that illumined our pathway. Not only Pleasant Hill established on Bonnie Brae, but it is established in the hearts of the people of the community. Pastors of the city have had different nights to worship with us, and we have been blessed by every effort put forth by them, many of them are in our home, at home, to turn aside and help us give thanks to our God, mighty in battle. Sunday A M. Rev. Rozier brought a simple, practical gospel that could be applied to our lives. Talking about Jesus, picturing him with a clean and well cared for head and face, and a ragged, dirty body, emphasizing that we live clean, holy lives, dwelling in clean temples. All Los Angeles should have heard that message. Rev. Carter of Pasadena worshipped with in the afternoon bringing another in the church. We lay aside every weight and sin that doth so easily beset us. Dr. Carter is a man of power doing big business for God. Sunday evening, Rev. Rozier again used as his subject, "Upon this Rock I will Build my Church. As God has laid the foundation we must build well. The foundation has been tried and it stood the test so must every building that is put upon this foundation stand the test. CHRISTIAN CHURCH 33rd and Hooper Avenue Moses F. Mitchell, Pastor C. B. Tarrance, Asso. Pastor Pastor Mitchell brought a wonderful sermon Sunday morning to his appreciative audience upon the subject, "The Adaptation of the Bible to the Fourfold Wants of Man." In the evening the young people with Mrs. Katie McNair as its President had a rousing session, Miss F. H. Johnson led the discussion. The sermon in pictures by Miss Rose M. Ruff was a masterpiece. Next Sunday morning the Rev. Mrs. F. H. Johnson will bring a message upon the subject, "The Two Builders" while in the evening Mrs. J. W. Sharp will bring a special message in the young people's meeting followed by Miss Rose M. Ruff wonder sermon in pictures. We make a speciality in courtesy to stranger some with our own Sunday and all will be well. --- we will do you good. If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened CHRIST INSTITUTIONAL COMMUNITY CHURCH AND UNITY CENTER AND COMMUNITY BIBLE SCHOOL. Adams and Central Ave. Rev. R. B. Hendricks, Pastor Sunday was indeed a glorious day all day. The 11 o'clock service was one of high spiritual benediction. The pastor announced his spiritual platform, which was very beautiful and impressive. "The pastor took for his text Matt. 16:18, "On this Rock I build my Church," and the Holy Spirit kindled fire and this fire ran from heart to heart and from breast to breast and a wonderful spiritual feast was wittened. Twelve came forward and registered, after which a very liberal contribution was given Holy communion was administered and a real glorious time was witnessed. The music was furnished by the Community Bible School Choir; little Ruby at the piano. At 2:30 the Bible School rendered a most excellent program. At 7:30 we again assembled to listen to an excellent service. Among the interesting features at this service was a Sacred reading, "The Lost Singer," by Miss Mildred Washington. After the wonderful sermon from the text, "They Found the Child," which was full of enthusiasm, the Holy Communion was administered. ST. PAUL BAPTIST INSTITUTIONAL CHURCH Services were inspiring throughout the day, Sunday School largely attended the departmental superintendents are working earnestly to keep in the front ranks. At 11 A. M. M. Pastor Holt spoke from the following text, Ephesians 4:6, "One God and Father of all, who is above all and through all and in you all." Subj: What we believe or Twelve Pillars of the Baptist Church. There was no stone left unturned in proving, 1st: He that believeth and believeth and believeth and believeth the scriptures to be God's inspired word, 3rd: The necessity of regeneration, and when the last of the twelve pillars was laid, the presence of the Holy Spirit was manifested in shouts and shouts—It was indeed a blessing to be there. After a very interesting B. Y. P. U. Rev. Messiah of Pittsburgh delivered a message worthwhile, which brought to a close another happy day in ion. A special sermon to the aged next Sunday, dinner will be served free of charge Many visitors in attendance. A hearty welcome at all times. BETHEL A. M. E. CHURCH 1511 W. 36th St. Major G. W. Priocau, Pastor Last Sunday was another big day for Bethel. The Sunday School was largely attended; they celebrated the birthday of three children—Gloria Battise from Fort Hauchuca, Aaaron Brewer and Miss Rosetta Smith. The pastor conducted the morning services. A very large attendance of visitors made up this growing congregation. Bethel has decided to build a more commodious and beautiful building in which to worship God. The plans for the first rally on the 5th Sunday in January is launched, every member with but a few exceptions will contribute. The prayer meeting was transferred, held at the residence of Rev. and Mrs. B. R. Guy, at the close of the delightful services two men came for the host singing filled full of pounding for the host and hostage. All retired feeling happy. Bethel has started out under favorable conditions. WADSWORTH SEVENTH DAY ADVENTIST 666 East 36th Street A packed church, with many turned away from the doors marked the opening service after three months out of doors meetings beneath the BIG TENT. Last Sunday night at this service 29 were buried with their LORD in the solemn ordinance of Baptism. Eleven others were held over until the next service of this kind which will be announced in a week or two. Sunday night, October 25th Elder P. Gustavus Rodgers the Pastor of the church will preach on the subject of ISRAEL—showing by comparison the Israel of yesterday and today. This is a very spiritual and instructive sermon and all are invited to be present. At 7 P. M. the Young People of the Church will stage their regular 45 minute service and we urge all interested in the future of the youth to be present. At 7:45 the preaching service begins and at 9 p. m. the services is over. If you are looking for a church whose services are always spiritual-interested and yet never, trespass—with us at this service. Bring a fellow.

FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH Furlong Tract Rev. A. T. Hines, Pastor Last Sunday First Baptist was out in full bloom to welcome the return of our pastor from the National Baptist Convention about six of our members living out in South Pasadena were among the first to be present, even in the Sunday School. Last Tuesday night the Choir gave a reception honoring the return of RV Hines and his visiting guest, Mrs. H. Evans of Muskogee, Okla., a popular member and worker of the First Baptist Church there. A splendid program was rendered after which the Pastor gave a wonderful report of the convention together with his tour through the East and Southland. The church rejoiced much after reading over the conventional presentation that Los Angeles had representative on the same and that was Rev Hines. After the report refreshments were served in the dining hall. Among those present were: Hon. Noah D.

THE BIRTH OF A WOMAN Page---Three The Bible vs Evolution THE MASTER OF THE WORLD The achievements of one epoch day were carried over into the next, and we are justified in supposing that the light of the first day became more and more distinct during the next two, as ring after ring came down from the waters above the firmament to the waters below it, until by the fourth epoch-day the sun and moon and stars could be seen;—not so clearly as now on a bright day, until after Noah's flood—the last of the "rings;" but clearly, nevertheless, through the translucent veil of water,—as now on a misty day or night. Sun, moon and stars had long been shining on the outer veil of the earth, but now the time had come to let these lights in the firmament be seen; to let the day previously marked by a grayish light become more distinct, so that the orb of day might by its course mark time for man and beast when created, and meantime begin to oxygenize the air, thus to prepare it for the breathing animals. Later on in the same 7,000 year day, the moon and stars also appeared, to influence the tides and to be ready to mark time in the night for man's convenience. We are not to suppose that development of plant life ceased during the fourth day, but rather that it progressed; the increased influence of the sun and moon reserving to bring forward other varieties of grass and shrubs and trees. Geology shows advances in plant life period—insects, snails, fish etc. For example, scales are found in coal seams, too; but this does not disturb the order; for the formation of coal-beds evidently continued after the third day —thus running into the Repitilian period. This "day" corresponds most closely with what geology designates the "Trias" period. Evening and morning-day four of seven thousand years 000 to 006 were the start of this work-closed, with great progress in the earth's preparation for man. THE FIFTH CREATIVE EPOCH DAY And God said, let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let fowl fly above the earth in the open atmosphere of heaven. And God created great whales and every living creature that moveth, with which God created the Earth's Kind, and every winged fowl after its Kind. And it was as God designed. How the warm oceans of earth swarmed with living creatures, from the jelly-fish to the whale, may be judged by the profusion of life in the warm southern seas at the present time. Reptiles, living partly in the water and partly on the land (amphibious) belong also to this period, during which present continents and islands were gradually rising and again subsiding, at one time deluged by larger or smaller rings coming down, and at another time washed by tidal waves. No wonder the remains of shell fish, etc., are found in the highest mountains. And no wonder the immense beds of limestone in all parts of the world are sometimes called "shell-fish cemeteries," because composed almost exclusively of conglomerate shells. What a swarming there must have been when those untellable trillions of little creatures were born, and dying, dropped one by one their little shells. We read that, God blessed them in multiplying. Yes, so slowly an existence and for so brief time is a favor, a blessing. Let us not contend for more that the Scripture record demands. The Bible does not assert that God created separately and individually the myriad kinds of fish and reptiles; but merely that divine influence, or spirit, brooded, and by divine purpose the seas brought forth its creatures of various kinds. The processes are not declared—one specie may, under different conditions, have developed under different conditions. No man knoweth, and it is unwise to be dogmatic. It is not for us to dispute that even the protoplasm of the palaeozoic slime may not have come into existence through chemical action of the highly mineralized waters of those seas. What we do claim is, that all came about as results of divine intention and arrangement, and hence, were divine creations, whatever were the channels and agencies. And we claim that this is shown by the facts of nature no less than by the words of Genesis; that however the creates of the sea were produced, they were brought to the condition in which each is, of its own kind—where the lines of species cannot be overridden. This is God's work, by whatever means brought about. If You Fail To Read---THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE---You May Never Know It Happened FRATERNAL BULLETIN F. A. A.

While it seems, according to his physicians, that he has passed the danger mark they have ordered him to refrain from strenuous work for at least a month.

Dones have been much concerned about his illness. Although he has been complaining ever since he returned from his trip to the National Negro Business League Convention at Tulsa, and his recent trip to Fort Hauchuca, it was not expected that it would be necessary for him to be confined to his bed. With his usual determination he fought off his illness for more than a month, when on Monday of last week he was compelled to give up. Drs.

OF BUILDING EUREKA San Francisco The Soaring Eagle tations on the pending b the regular endorsed Re RED HOT CAPMAIGN AND SUPERVISOR Perhaps the most important now on that has ever been held its entire history. The issues are not far fetched and one has to but visualize to fullness. After a most thorough in measures and men, and freely consulting organizations and leaders of our group it is the consensus of opinion that the following ticket will best subserve the interests of the plain, common, everyday average citizen. We publish the same for your consideration and urge the importance of its support. CITY TICKET ENDORSED BY G. Q. P. HEADS COUNTY COMMITTEE PUTS O. K ON CANDIDATES FOR MUNICIPAL OFFICES The Republican County Committee met last night, heard from the various candidates for offices and indorsed committee members for the November 3, nominating election. The Republicans endorsed for Supervisors are the following: FRANK R. HAVENNER, newspa per man. MILTON MARKS, attorney Norman H. MacLEAN, secretary of the District Council of Carpenters. WILLIAM P. STANTON, president of the Labor Council. WALTER J. SCHMIDT, Assemblyman. Other endorsements made were as follows: JOHN J. OTOOLE. City Attorney. JOHN A. McGOUGALD. Treasurer, incumbent. EDMOND GODCHAUX, Recorder, incumbent. WILLIAM J. HYNES, Public Administrator, incumbent. DANIEL S. O'BRIEN and S. J. LAZARUS, Police Judges, incumbents. EDWARD F. BRYANT, Tax Collector, incumbent ALICE ROSE POWER, member of Board of Education, incumbent. Now then, the issues are so clear and clean-cut that NOT ONE of our group should go astray in this contest. The Daily Press it seems, has decreed that certain officials shall or shall not be and have come forth with a ticket and ask the people to support the same wholly, without dotting an "I" or crossing a "T," simply because they say so. In answer to this our group of voters will answer by voting to suit themselves and will support measures and men who have proved themselves worthy in the past. For it is a well known fact when looking for consideration the big dailies are the last ones to give to this people even a pleasant smile. Therefore we shall in great balancing power which in all circumstances will fulfill the imperial fortunes of several of the candidate for those who have been tried in the balance and have not been found wanting. W. J. HYNS FOR PUBLIC ADMINISTRATOR. We are at a loss to know of any good reason why a man of the caliber of W. J. Hynes should not succeed himself, just the same as other tried and true public officials in this city. No man could excel the record which he has made in this highly important office. No man can come to you more highly endorsed. The only reason for supplanting him is that another man wants the place for no other reason that we can see other than self-aggrandizement. Mr. Katz, the people highly honored him two years ago by electing him Supervisor and now he is already dissatisfied and wants the people to dismiss a faithful servant to make room for him, who is already well cared for. Will they do it? Our guess is NO. We want to line up solidly behind Hynes for Public Administrator. JOHN OTOOLE FOR CITY ATTORNEY Hon. John OToole has the call this time for City Attorney. A lawyer with outstanding ability, a friend to the people, there is no question of him protecting their every right in the important position of City Attorney in this great city. In Mr. O'Toole, we have a man in which you need no step ladder to get up to him, he has a listening ear for If You Fail To Read---THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE---You May Never Know It Happened BY: WILLIAM J.

This democratic trait has been fully demonstrated during his term as Civil Service Commissioner for the City of San Francisco. We are for O'Toole for City Attorney. RALPH McLERAN, FOR SUPERVISOR Now, we want to emphatically state that McLeran is the sort of leader we want if we expect San Francisco to keep to the forefront amongst the great galaxy of Cities of this Country. He stands today as the embodiment of progressiveness and has not for one moment permitted the flag of triumph for our city to trail in the dust. He has seen to it, that our educational facilities have been kept intact and every other branch of our city government has kept abreast with the times. The hue and cry about the tax rate is a false one, and we will demonstrate the fallacy of the same in our coming issues, we are strong for McLeran. ANGELO ROSSI FOR SUPERVISOR A business man tried and true who has demonstrated his capacity to keep this city in the front rank as among the foremost. It takes the kind of citizens as Mr Rossi to properly represent the people, successful in his own business, eminently qualifies him to conduct business for the people. In our next issue we will have much to say as to the qualifications and reasons for the support of Mr. Rossi. JOHN TAYLOR ON THE FIRING LINE. John Taylor, political war horse and who is known throughout the County as tried and true for his convictions is much in evidence in the pending campaign. John has earned an enviable reputation as a fair and square shooter and this trait makes him much in demand. Mr. Taylor, who gained considerable notoriety for the uphill fight he made against the present State Administration, says that he has just begun to fight and expects to perch upon victory's banner. IS THIS'TO BE A ONE MAN'S TOWN? The question that thousands of citizens and voters are asking themselves, is San Francisco to be a one man's town? Will any newspaper which is supposed to be the mouthpiece of the people be permitted to dictate the policies of the city and say who should and who should not be its elective officers? This was tried in New York City where Governor Smith, the people's revered leader to the front with unbuttoned coat and won a victory for the people the like of which was never witnessed before. The people of San Francisco ar called upon to do the same thing. EDITOR BASS IN OUR MIDST We were glad to have in our midst the last ten days Editor J. B. Bass, whose counsel and advice was indeed appreciated. While here, Mr. Bass was quite busy seeing and meeting the leading factors of the north and made several public addresses. DOCTOR M.

The above cut is a replica of what is perhaps the only musical organization of its kind composed of boys of our group in the entire Western Country. Through the vision and enterprise of Attorney Oscar Hudson, who is always ready to lend his time and aid for movements which will demonstrate the capacity of the race to do things, this particular organization PETER H. HARRIS ATTORNEY OSCAR HUDSON has been possible. The organization is composed of 35 boys, whose ages range from 11 years to 15 years, and they play 22 drums and 13 bugles. When we say play, that word goes 100 per cent. It was the writer's pleasure to attend an entertainment given by the Masons of Berkeley, the home town of these boys, on a recent date, and one was reminded of the great "Busch Zuaves," World famous Drum Corps in 1902 at St. Louis, Mo. With martial music and time to a perfection, this organization is making a name for itself and for Mr. Hudson, its promoter. The people of Northern California should feel proud, as no doubt they do, of this organization, and give to it the support which it deserves.

There were three accessions. Come to our prayer and teachers meeting full of interest and instruction. Welcome. UNION MISSIONARY BAPTIST CHURCH 1546 Palomares Ave. Rev. M. J. Gipson. Pastor Sunday School, 9:45 was most enjoyable and inspiring. A splendid offer was conceived and attendance was encouraging. The pastor preached from the subject: "Christ or Caesar." Without a doubt it was a powerful sermon which met with enthusiastic response from the congregation. At 6:30 the B. Y. P. U. offered an entertaining program at the lesson assigned for the evening. The evening message from the pastor was unusually inspiring and far-reaching. So full of wholesome food for thought it was and convinced did it prove to be, that three young men were compelled to come forward and give their hearts to God. They are eagerly awaiting the hour when they shall put on Christ by baptism. Each Tuesday evening at 7:30 the District Bible Class is conducted by Rev. Hardiman. Come out and bring your puzzling questions to be answered. On each Thursday at 7:30 the Bible study and prayer meeting takes place. Everybody always welcome. TABERNACLE BAPTIST CHURCH 12th and Hemlock Sts. Rev. J. D. Gordon; Pastor The Sunday School is growing rapidly. Mrs. Kreguiar our dear Superintendent always has something in store for us. Come out next Sunday morning and find out what it is. Rev. Gordon brought to us another stirring message. His text for the morning service was, "The Kingdom of God is at hand," Mark 1st chapter. Come over and help tabernacle in her efforts to build a new church. Bro. D. Tesei, is making our B.P. U. jujit that it should be. The program next Sunday will be rendered by the True and tried. Miss Evelyn Fisher played for us a very beautiful piano solo, Mr. A. Sutton sang a song; we are always glad to have selections by anyone. Our pastor is telling us things time after time that every true Christian should know. Hear him next Sunday. BETHEL CHURCH OF CHRIST (Holiness) Cor. Hooper Ave. and East Adams Rev. Wm. A. Washington, Pastor Last Lord's Day our Sunday School lesson was 1 Cor. 13:13. The pastor preached both sermons; morning sermon, text 1 Cor. 13:8—Charity never faileth, but whether there be prophecies, they small fail; whether there be knowledge, it shall nish away. Night service, text Luke 6:46 to 49; the pastor emphasized this 4th verse—Why call ye me Lord, Lord and do not the things I say. And Jesus said be not only hearers of the word but also does: Don't call upon the Lord because you want to escape, don't wait until you are in distress to call on the Lord, but call on him now while you are in good health and to get results you must be doers of the word, come and hear and when you hear the word of God, obey because obedience is better than sacrifice. Come to the Revival, you are welcome. BETHEL BAPTIST CHURCH 47th Place and Hooper Avenue Rev. H. D. Prowd, Pastor Our Sunday School was well attended. The lesson was entered into most heartily. The main points were energetically driven home by Dr. Evans the Superintendent. At the 11 o'clock service our brother, Evangelist Brown gave us quite a forceful discourse on the benevolent spirit. He spoke so many good things that we cannot enumerate. In the evening Sister Galerion conducted a spiritual Song and Praise meeting. At S o'clock our Brother Brown again spoke for us and handed out sorts of medicine so that all present could find and appropriate his share—except his brethren—the absent ministers. We are deeply interested in this brother and the work he is doing and shall lend him our sympathy and prayers. Come out this Sunday and be refreshed—The living word of the ever present God will be delivered, ay for us. CLASS IN BEAUTY CULTURE STARTS A number of ladies, several of whom were old Mme. C. J. Walker agents, begun the advanced coarse of Beauty Culture, offered by the Mme. O. J. Walker Co., through their National Representative, Mme. P. Erlyne Horne, Monday evening. Mme. Osborne is offering a reduced rate to 10 If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened YOUR WATER RATES---- As the result of a direct mandate in the new City Charter, the Municipal Water Bureau is obliged to ask for an increase in water rates. Under the old City Charter a portion of the interest and sinking fund charges on outstanding water bonds was collected by a general tax levy, the remainder being paid from water revenues. The new City Charter, which was adopted by the people and became effective July 1, 1925, requires the Water Bureau to pay all these charges directly out of its revenues and relieves the taxpayer from any further charge on account of water bonds. The additional burden thus placed upon the Water Bureau by the new Charter amounts to $1,500,000 annually, and the new water rates are fixed to enable the Bureau to meet this additional obligation. The Water Bureau, being a munleipally-owned utility, sells its service on a cost basis. Thus an increase in its expenses, when that expense does not increase its gross earnings MUST be reflected in its rates. The new rates asked by the Water Bureau will enable the Bureau to meet all annual charges on bonds now outstanding, as well as other bonds that may be voted from time to time to improve and extend the existing water supply and distribution system. With the new rates in effect, Los Angeles will still enjoy one of the lowest water rate schedules in the United States. A national survey recently completed by the American Water Works Association reveals that in 183 of the largest and most representative American cities the average domestic water rate is 18 cents per 100 cubic feet. Compared to this average 18-cent rate, the present water rate in Los Angeles is 10 cents, while under the new schedule it will be 13 cents, or 5 cents less than the average. Los Angeles enjoys, and will continue to enjoy, one of the lowest water rate schedules in America. And yet it is one of the most difficult and expensive cities to supply. This is true for the following reasons: 1. The Water Bureau brings the major portion of this city's water supply from the High Sierras over a distance of 250 miles, through an aqueduct passing over forbidding desert and rugged mountain country. It is the longest municipal aqueduct in the world. 2. Los Angeles is the largest city in the world, geographically. A mile of distributing main serves fewer people in Los Angeles than in any other large city in America. Thus the cost of water distribution is much higher here than elsewhere. 3. Los Angeles is one of the most rapidly growing cities in America. Thus the expense of enlargements and extensions in distributing mains and other facilities is correspondingly greater than in the average city. 4. The uneven topography of Los Angeles, while making it a beautiful home city, requires a tremendous amount of water pumping expense. The Bureau serves water from elevations all the way between sea level to 1400 feet above sea level, a condition necessitating the operation of numerous distributing zone systems and a heavy distributing cost. Despite these conditions and with the new rates in effect, Los Angeles people will continue to get their water far cheaper than the average rate paid by consumers in other American cities. There are other conditions, in addition to the principal one stated in this advertisement, that have served to increase the Water Bureau's expenses without providing a compensating increase in its gross earnings. A full exposition of these conditions, together with a tabulation of the present and revised rate schedule, will be sent to every water consumer with the November statements.

Preparation For Thanksgiving Services Preparation For Thanksgiving Services By: REV. FLETCHER Of the Second A. M. E. Church Regardless of your racial persuasion, or your denominational distinctions, or peculiar characteristics, you, my brothers and sister, it is my duty as one of the pastors of our great city, and ambassador for Christ, to lead or direct you in the performance of your national and religious duties with reference to Thanksgiving Day services. Neither sain nor sinner should content themselves in fishing, gaming, drinking and engaging in unholy dancing. Such would be a desecration, a backward step in social development. It suffices to say that God is not pleased, nor does He delight in these. In the case of an election, or a war, or any special demonstration, special preparation is made and the leaders set themselves to the task of solving the social and political problem, or to reconsidering the importance of intelligent deliberations. It is probably true that you have made a large program, which has for the first time him your own personal education above want, or social habitualities; this alone is a credit to you, and your economic circumstances may be strengthened thereby. Thi salone is the reason why you should court God's favor. He honors those who manhood demand only an opportunity in dealing with his or her peculiar problem and finds great pleasure in nonor Him. True manhood and woe the acknowledgement of the God of Heaven, and Christ, the World's Redeemer. Fortitude, the strength of endurance—your very special need, must be had if you are successful in carrying out your program. This is worthy of all acceptance. The soldier in the office, the statesman, yea, the man of wealth has his problems. The father, the mother, the children all, have their problems. The bootlegger and the sport have their problems, but if you wish to survive you must retrain from the sinful temptations of the world, and trust in God with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding, but acknowledge the Lord with all your heart, and let God direct your path. An undisputed fact, that the sons of Cush, (Gen. -0) as a race, have more to be grateful for than any race on the face of the globe. God honored you in the primitive age. You were chosen to furnish hospitality to the Jews, to educate them for intelligent control, Moses, the Leader, was educated at the feet of Ethiopian teachers. He was brought up in the Egyptian Court. Joseph was bought by an Ethiopian, and elevated by an Egyptian king to the position of prince, according to God's plan. We have much to be thankful for. Despite the discouragement and humiliation that appear to be forced upon us at the hands of our modern democracy, despite the existence of secret compact whose existence is made obvious in discrimination, and uncalled for malicious conduct, such as are commented upon in the racial papers. By God's help you should come forth, and stand as an example of Christian forlitude as God has given you strength to dare and to do. "Our father trusted in Thee, O Lord." My brethren, this is your day in God's program, to put your hand to the Gospel. Ploughshare. Conduct yourselves so as to teach the lesson of Holliness unto God. I fear that our Thanksgiving program is not free from the Testament criticism. He who looks forth to the big Thanksgiving dinners, and a big football game proves his disregard for the Holy intelligence found in God's Word. Roman 8:1—"There is therefore now no condemnation to those that be in Christ; they walk not after the flesh but after the spirit. Let your desire for the consciousness of a right relation with God be the ruling principle in your endeavor, and your gratitude to God the master passion of your soul.

In other words, at every turn of the road we are forced to take “low”. We have an abiding faith, however, that the situation.is far from hopeless and we feel that with wise council and purging of the false and pernicious parasites of the body politic, that we have a most excellent opportunity of coming into our own in the not far distant future. KU KLUX ACTION Yes, we verily believe that the activities in our residen- tial secticns are a part and parcel of the Ku Klux program. It has all the ear marks and it must rest upon the shoulders of the hooded cowards. Strange to say, in these premises, our Negro press falls short on being unanimous on the Ku Klux is- sue. Roll Call will be in order soon as to our stand-on this burning issue. The bounden duty of the Negro Press of California is to Get Together. They must do this thing, or until they do so they are disqualified from using the slogan—‘Get Together”. It has in the past and is now a reflection as well as an impedi- ment to a real and lasting progress that above all situations, this particular angle of our business life has stood aloof from each other. Therefore we are much pleased to note the tendency of our brothers in Northern California, who show a true snvrit along the line of getting together, and at no far distant date we truly hope to sega real cooperative movement functioning for the advancement of the cause of legitimate Negro journals. Eddie Graney, acknowledged as one of the greatest ar- biters who ever stepped into the squared arena of fistiances, is the author of one of the most colorful and illuminating articles on the status of the manly art which it has ever been. our lot to read. Th certicle in question is now running in the Pacific Coast Magazine, and will run for two more issues, October, November and December, inclusive. It is widely illustrated and the story by Mr. Graney stands out in bolt relief as a worth while literary effort. and one which shows the writer to be ab- solutely unbiased, and strikes out from the shoulder at the gone by decadence of the manly as compared with those who in days gone by, truly were representatives of the same. Of course as Mr. Granev has a world wide reputatiori as a ref- eree, noted for his absolute impartiality, it is but natural that his written ovinion is governed likewise. Mr. Braney’s article will stand for all time as a test upon boxing and boxers for he has not only held un this branch of effort in all of its fulness, but has set guide posts which if followed will place the manly art back in its former glory as a proposition which will stand truly upon its merit. Men like Mr. Graney believe in merit, and regardless of who is best in his line, he has no hesitancy in giving due credit for the same. His tribute to Joe Gans, Walcott and other fighters of our group indeed shows that he even now lives up to his reputation of days gone by as one of the fairest and squarest men that ever lived. The Smith Drug Store, through the genius of Dr. J. T. Smith, answers “Aye” on roll call by the fast establishing in our midst of two high class stores enfirely and absolutely manned by the race. Answering truly roll call for progress as amply demonstrated in the opening of a field of effort for our youth and at the same time demonstrting the capacity of the group along business lines. A. H. Reeves, premier business man and merchant. Mr. Reeves can qualify on roll call for the reason that he is a pi- oneer in this section in making opportunity for our group along business lines. It was Reeves who put the J in Junk and op- ened up an avenue of opportunities for our people. He has never hesitated to support enterprizes and movements which stand for the advancement of our people along business lines. Dr. Albert Baumann, ever since he set foot on California soil, has been an asset to racial progress and the two magnifi- cent apothecaries conducted by him stand as a mute monu- ment to his genius. His advent in our midst was truly a har- binger of progress and opportunity. Of course he can easily answer and qualify on roll call. E. L. Dorsey and Fambro, owners of the Independent Rubber Company, can qualify on roll call. They established a new and untried line of effort, in the same they give opportuni- ty for men to work at this trade of skill. They have indeed been a success and merit the honors of being listed among race builders. Dr. M. C. Cooley, Phsician and surgeon, can qualify on roll call. He has proven his worth and at all times been a part and parcel with worth while movements for his race. We have watched his step and noted his interest in the most in- timate welfare of the people. | He has in many ways per- formed the things which amply qualify him to answer “Aye” on roll call. Dr. Frank A. Gordon, likewise can answer roll call. He -has step by step demonstrated his ability in his profession, and at all times has proved his worth and right to the consider- ation of the people of this communnity. His keen interest in the welfare of the group and every ready willingness to give his best effort for their welfare, eminently qualify him to answer in the ‘affirmative on roll call. : THE SOUTH PARK BULLETIN This paper is making a stron: living in the vicinity of South_Par| vasion of the Negro.

PB) | More than three score years ago slavery split the Methodist Episcopal Church in two at Mason and Dixon's rine. ‘Lhe innocent cause of the spit, Bishop James Osgood Andrew, was opposed to human bondage: he never bought or sold a slave, it was report- ed. It was his misfortunte to inner- it them; the State laws of North Car- olina forbarle him to free them. At the time of his second marriaze, 1844, his wife, Mrs. Leonora Green- | wood, of this city, was a slave owner. ‘He signed away ail his personal rights in his wife's property. However. he kept the ownership of a boy who had been left to him by his first wife: al- so the care of a woman intrusted vo him by a friend on his death. The militant abolitionists were shocked at the spectacle of a church dignitary owning human flesh and blood. ‘They raised an outery which grew to such proportions that the bishop was the issue at the General Conference at New York in 1844, By a vote of 111 to 69 he was asked to resign his office if he refused to pre- sent his slaves with liberty. ‘The bishop bowed to the majority, deciding to resign.

AND SUN Los Angeles will again have its Winter League. The lid will be officially pried off next Saturday, October 24th when Harry Hopper's Major League All-Stars tangle with the Philadelphia Royal Giants, managed by Lonnie Goodwin. Given good weather, this year's Winter League should produce the finest brand of baseball and pay the largest returns of any winter season since the practice of bringing teams west began some years back. The Philadelphia Royal Giants will be the team of Colored Stars that will winter here and since they seem to be the only team here, they can be given the undivided support of the Angel City fans.

The Philadelphia Royal G ed Stars that will winter here a ly team here, they can be give Angel City fans. The team is one of the best that ever landed here and that includes the team that played at old Anderson Park with Rogan and Rube Curry on the firing line. Some old favorites are included on this year's team, George Carr who had his best season in the East this past season is one of the mainstays. The greatest outfielder in the business, Oscar Charleston is included in the lineup as is the limitable, Connie Day, and the all-around, Jar Rile Mackey, "Crush" Holloway has also been seen here before and is playing left field on this new club. Nip Winters, baseball's greatest left hand, Henderson, Britt and "Plunk" Drake are the Philadelphia hurlers. Stevens, shortstop of the Hilldale world champions, is coming and "Highpockets" Hudspeth will do his fancy stuff on the A bag. Major League Stars, Class A-A-A players will all look alike to Giants. Saturday and Sunday they will face one of the toughest aggregations of the entire winter. Such stars as Wille Kamm of Chicago, Earl Sheely and Hollis Thurston will face Lonnie Goodwin's newest club. Haney and Emke of Detroit will all do they can to stop the Giants. The Meusel Brothers "Irish" and Bob of the New York Club will play in the Sox Park outfield. In addition to the above Major Leaguers, Pie Traynor and Max Carey of the Pittsburg world series champions may wear All-Star uniforms. Telegrams have been sent to them. Of course, the usual opening day ceremonies will be gone through and it is neless to predict that the enlarged White Sox Park will be taxed to its capacity when the umps cry, "Play ball." Bullet Rogan Wires He Intends to Play Here This Winter Bullet Rogan in a Philadelphia Royal Giant Uniform. That would be a treat for the local fans this winter. Well, it looks as though fandom is going to have that treat. Rogan is expected here with the Royal Giants and it is possible that he will be on the mound either Saturday or Sunday. Rogan is the greatest righthander in the business and Nip Winters the premier southpaw. With those two in harness on the same club Lonnie Goodwin has the pitching staff of pitching staffs.

MAMIE YOUNG, Proprietress 407 Pottery Street Telephone 206 FLYING SPARKS HERE THERE AND EVERYWHERE By: "JAKE" MOORE Before a crowd of 80,000 the "Thundering Herd" of U. S. C. gridiron warriors went down to defeat at the hands of Stanford University "Red Shirts." Those who witnessed the fray can say it was a great game and tho' U. S. C. lost it was great in defeat. After all, it isn't the result of the game but the way you play it, that really counts. --- Our hero, Bruce Taylor, played a stellar game throughout the contest and was easily the outstanding star of the game. Time after time he broke through the opposing line to stop the great Mr. Ernie Nevers, heralded far and wide as a smashing line plunger. Last New Year's. Nevers carried the four horsemen and seven mules of Notre Dame the length of the field for a touch down, but last Saturday a dusty youth of one hundred and eighty-five pounds furnished enough weight to bring him down. Bruce Taylor is undoubtedly the greatest guard on the coast and it's a cinch he will have the berth on the All Pacific Coast Conference Team selections. The late Walter Camp passed away a year ago too soon, for he lived and seen Taylor in action last Saturday he would have placed him with the immortals along side his brethren, "Fritz" Pollard Paul Robeson and Duke Slater on the All American team. Did the best team win? That's the topic of discussion when you hear talk of the game. Head coach Howard Jones has no alibi being a good sportsman and a gentleman, he simply states, "We lost, and Stanford deserved to win. That's all there is to it! Apparently the better team won". "Pop" Warner, head coach of Leland Stanford University says: "We were lucky to win". It's hard for us to a race to concede anything to Stanford, as that institution has gone on record as objecting to the use of a Negro athlete, but ignoring that slap in the face and showing our superior sportsmanship, give the DEVIL his due. Barney Hutchinson of The Evening Express has the question in a nut shell, when he writes, "To carry on the zoological analogy, the Trojan eleven had the quick start, the elusive dash, the dazzling burst of speed in moments of distress of a herd of antelope. But, like the antelope, their running around was rather futile, in the final analysis" The elephant gets somewhere when he happens so to desire; the antelope merely runs around in circles" U. S. C. lost the game because she lacked the punch in the pinches, Stanford won because it was the better balanced team. It was a team that could run, pass, and kick, U. S. C. could only pass. The breaks in the game were even. Stanford took advantage of her breaks and won. U. S. C. had the same opportunity, obtaining the ball in the scoring zone, but lacked the punch of "the elephant"—Capt. Ernie Nevers to carry the ball over for a touchdown. Where; Oh, where, is another Johnny Riddle to batter down opposing lines into submission. JESS STAHL AND TY STOKES WILL RIDE AT ASCOT ROUNDUP Both Have Established Reputations for Fearless and Skillful Horsemanship JESS STAHL CAN RIDE A BRONCO BACKWARDS LONGER THAN THE ORDINARY COWBOY CAN IN THE REGULATION STYLE They call him the Harry Wills of the bronco busting world. That's Jess Stahl. In other words if he was given a fair show, at the championship for bronco busting he would be the world's champion instead of just the world's Colored champion Jess is going to ride in the contests at Ascot Park that begin Saturday, October 24th and continue for eight days, and he is going to come away with some of that contest money, you can bet on that. This is Stahl's twenty-second year of contest riding and he is called the daddy of them all. Born in the south he first learned to ride by climbing aboard a mule. He has never worked on a cattle ranch and learned all his riding hanging around roundups and rodeos. He has appeared in every state that has a roundup and has also mounted bucking horse flesh in England and Canada. His specialty is to ride, a bronze, mule or steer mounted backwards and he has no superior at this particular brand of stunt riding. Quite a bit of prize money has come the hard riding veteran's way. He won the bareback riding contest at Madison Square Garden, New York in 1923. He won first prize at Calamath, Ore., in 1924 when he rode the Outlaw, Little Jeff. At Pendleton the same year he took second money in the bulldogging contest and just this year he finished in second place at Lake View, Oregon. During the winter months Stahl makes his home at Eureka, California and after these contests at Ascot Stahl will hang up his chaps for the season and hit the trail for Eureka.

HUMBOLT 6347-8 TY STOKES IS A TRICK RIDER, A TRICK ROPER, A BRONCO BUSTER, BULLDOGS, STEERS AND IS ONE OF THE BEST PONY EXPRESS RIDERS IN THE WORLD. One hundred and fifty pounds of muscle is Ty Stokes, who can do any stunt known to a wild wester rider. Not only is he what you may call a versatile champion, but he is always doing something when taking part in a roundup such as the coming rodeo at Ascot Park that starts next Saturday, October 24th. Ty is always the busiest man on the stamping grounds and if he isn't giving the audience a thrill he is treating them to a laugh. Stokes loves horses and he wouldn't trade a pinto for the best automobile in California. Born in Oklahoma Ty learned to ride and break horses on a cattle ranch. He worked for a time on the 101 ranch. The year of 1901 was about the time that Stokes started punching cattle and it was not until 1907 that he left the ranch and joined a wild west show. That started him on his career before the public and he is known all over the United States. Since 1915, our wiry friend has been a feature of all California roundups and he has won many prizes. He recently won a contest at Livermore, California. "Punching cattle and breaking houses is Ty's hobby and he spends each winter on the A.H. Ranch at Red Buff, California. Stokes and Stahl are忠am friends but they disagree on one point. Stokes believes that women should be allowed to bulldog steers and ride bucking bronzees if they can but Jess says no. This is Ty's first appearance at a Los Angeles rodeo and like Jess Stahl the Ascot roundup will be his last appearance before the public this year.

The referee called the match a draw after the two wrestlers worked for 30 minutes without either of their shoulders being pinned to the mat. Several-times Siki had Kaplan's shoulders within less than an inch of the canvass but he couldn't muster up the necessary leverage to be credited with a fail. Siki by his perfect manners and gentlemanly conduct has made friends wherever he has gone in Los Angeles. He was drafted into pictures during the final week and put in two very fine final days with the Gang at the Hal Roach Studio. The Abyssinian has matches in San Francisco and Salt Lake in view. He will probably fill those engagements and then return to Los Angeles. MEETING OF STEARLING LIGHT LODGE A well attended meeting of Stearling Light Lodge No. 8994, G. U. O. O.
