Griffith and Rev. D. C. Knox, we paid a visit to the site of the Second Baptist Church on 24th and Griffith Sts., on last Thursday week that we might be shown through the edifice by its genius, Dr. T. L. Griffith, just before it was to be closed to all visitors while the finishing touches are being put on the interior by way of paint, decoration, etc. We were indeed glad to have this opportunity for the great magnitude of this colossal church building cannot nor will be appreciated without a close up and explanation by one who knows the plans and various angle of the church edifice. While we will doubtless at future date write about this structure Prominent Officials of Gold O. E. of W., Near Dea The local officials in large numbers of the local Elks journeyed to Santa Barbara last Monday evening for the purpose of assisting in the initiation of a large number of candidates in Harmony Lodge of that city. Having accomplished their mission at an early hour in the morning they resumed their home journey. All went well until they had nearly reached home. When one half mile from the Hollywood Country Club on Ventura Boulevard, something appeared to loom up in front of the quilted car driven by Wm. J. Sutton who was driving at a pretty lively clip. It would seem that he too suddenly applied all four brakes, the car buckled up and all five occupants of the Jewett went out the top of the car, some of whom FORMER LOS ANGELES T QUARTETTE TO LON Last Tuesday night the Four Harmony Kings, one of America's finest quartettes opened in London at the Coliseum.

HAD MOST SONS IN WORLD WAR (By The Associated Negro World) Little Rock, Ark.; Dec. 10.—The fact that C. E. Robinson, 88, has had more sons in the World War than any other parent in America won clementry for Ed Robinson, one of his sons arrested for speeding. The old man explained that the federal government had given him $1000 for having the most boys in the army. There were ten sons and seven grandons. Robinson, the younger, was the first of 1,400 offenders to get off without punishment. NEW ARRIVAL Members of The Eagle staff are heartily congratulating their fellow craftsman, S. O.

Banks of the Revenue Department, is reported quite ill. cannot-refrain at this time from a mention of the gigantic conception, now nearing completion and dedication on January 3rd, 1926. To our mind to Dr. T. L. Griffith goes the crown as the West's greatest church builder. Not theoretically but concretely before your very eyes stands this monument of church architecture which mutely testifies to the genius of this pastor. The vast auditorium, Sunday School Department, Class Rooms, Nursery and banquet rooms will in due time be within the knowledge of all and that to Los Angeles, the historic 2nd Baptist Church will open its doors by presenting one of the finest and most elaborate church edifices in this great country. Golden West Lodge, I. B. P. Death in Auto Wreck Were thrown at least 50 feet. It was considered miraculous that no fatalities resulted, although several were severely injured. The occupants of the car besides Mr. Sutton were: R. H. Hicks, Treasurer of Golden West Lodge; George W. Marmon, Chaplain; George Ellerby; W. L. Crawford. Following close behind in another car was Lieut. L. McDuff, Exalted Ruler of Golden West Lodge and Wm. Robertson, the Secretary of the same. It was indeed fortunate that they were training as they were able to give first aid and summoned the Van Nuys Police Department, who rushed cars to get the injured to the hospital.

FLORENCE COLE-TALBERT The story of the triumph in Italy of Mme Florence Cole-Taibert reads like fiction. The story is no doubt of intense interest to her friends and life-long acquaintances in this city where she was reared and those who meet every day her parents upon the streets of this city, Mr. and Mrs. T. A. Cole. gust how the whites, worst taste and the le to bring their feelings into our most hospits brave soprano, Miss F was born in Los Ang and won a gold medal College of Chicago in te entire period of the As taken from the December issue of the Crisis, the story goes: "GENIUS "It is said time and time again that when the Negro race exhibits real talent and genius, then it escapes the petty prejudice and annoyances which surround it in America. This is not only not true but often American prejudice actually pursues and attacks Negro genius beyond the confines of its own country. An excellent example of this is the career of the singer, Mme. Florence Cole Talbert. "Madame Talbert this year has been studying at the musical academy of the Villa d'Este at Tivoli, Italy. The well known Italian daily, Il Risorgimento reports the final recital of the academy and says in its headlines: "Final Recital; Race Hatred; Renation of Citizens; Triumphant Welcome Miss Florence Talbert." Of all the pupils the portrait of Madane Talbert is the only one to appear. "The journal then goes on to say: "Now that the pupils have all or nearly all departed, we feel that we ought to mention an offensive episode which has by no means escaped the notice of our citizens. Indeed they have reacted against it to the best of their ability. "Among the young Americans there was a Fear and true art, Miss Florence Talbert who had the mischance to be of mixed blood, that is, she was the daughter of a white woman and a Negro [sie] but was a magnificient type of mulatto. "It is notorious that in America the aversion between white and colored persons is very bitter and so great in the feeling we have toward them that we have had to notice with disgust." gust how the whites, with the very worst taste and the least tact, wished to bring their feelings and prejudices into our most hospitable Italy. The brave soprano, Miss Florence Talbert, was born in Los Angeles, California and won a gold medal at the Musical College of Chicago in 1916. During ten entire periods of the musical season she has suffered from the prejudice of her compatriots. They have not only ostracized her completely but tried to attack her character. "But the valiant artist has been welcomed by a large group of distinguished ladies in Italian society and has been able easily not only to triumph over all prejudice but to achieve a great success. "Sometimes ago a colleague of ours went to the Villa d'Este to photograph the students. The Americans did not want Miss Talbert included in the group. The photographer had to insist for a long time and at last it was only when he threatened not to make the photograph at all, that the whites yielded. "As we have said these facts did not escape the watchful yye of the community who gave all their sympathy to Miss Florence Talbert and decided that on the first occasion they would make this sympathy publicly known. "Therefore on last Sunday when the final recital took place, the large and cultured audience gave every manifestation of affection for Miss Talbert and with long and repeated applause saluted the real and true artists that she is. "Two magnificent bouquets of flowers, the only ones given during the whole musical season, were sent to her. "Magnificent in power and modulation, she showed herself the true artist in "O Patria Min" from Aida and in "Figlia del Sol" from the African, so much so as to surprise the audience and move it profoundly, and greatly to impress her teacher, Professor Delia Valeri. "To these good augusties, let us add our wamesters. 'On to greater things.' THE INTERNATIONAL ORDER OF TWELVE TO HOLD A GREAT SOCIAL Sir W. J. J.

Of those who came and saw, not one went away dissatisfied. Cars continued to come and saw, not one went away dissatisfied. Cars continued to come and go from early dawn till late twilight. This tract is located in the heart of the beautiful residence district lying mid-way between nLos Angeles City limits and Redondo, one of Southern California's most beautiful beach cities. Mr. O. L. Banks, treasurer of the Eastside Realty Company, says that there were more than a dozen reservations accepted on the opening day and that many expressed their intention to buy, after consulting with friend wife or friend husband as the case may be. Mr. Walter Gordon of the Walter L. Gordon Realty Company is associated with the Eastside Realty Company in the handling of this sub-division, as well as several other prominent local Realty Firms, such as the Alston Realty Company, the W.

Williams Company and oters, which makes it possible for any one to purchase through their favorite broker. The Eastside Realty and the Walter L. Gordon Realty Companies, in securing Upson Manor. Tract have performed a real and lasting service to the Colored people of the entire city of Los Angeles, and any person who is able to make an investment or who is desirous of securing a home site should lose no time in making arrangements to see the Gordon Manor Tract. The past record of the Eastside Realty Company in handling the Central Avenue Gardens Tract and the Central Avenue SubDivision should serve as assurance to those may be in doubt to the merits of the Gordon Manor Tract. Many who invested in the Central Avenue Gardens and Central Avenue SubDivision have secured an independence that only comes with conservative investments.

Southern Newspaper Provokes Race Riot (By The Associated Negro World) Raleigh, N. C., Dec. 10.-Colored residents of this city are much angered by the thereseent innovation in headlines of the local News andObserver. Tey claim that the newspaper is adding to a long list of insults by permitting the word "darkey" in its headlines in referring to members of the Negro race, and that such things are the cause of the difficulties which have arisen between Negroes and whites in this district.

WHEATON Marquette University, Milwaukee, Wis., is debating the University of Cambridge, England, on the question, "Resolved," That this house pities its grandchildren." Mr. William R. Duffey of the Marquette University writes William Randolph Hearst, Publisher for an opinion on the subject being debated. Mr. Hearts answers at some length, citing the splendid opportunities, comforts and conveniences of today against those of past generations. Among other great improvements he writes that "That mankind has improved, too, not only in material welfare, but in thoughts, in sentiments, in impulses and in desires. We do not boil people in oil now-a-days, or burn them at the stake, or break them on the wheel, or crucify them on trees, or let them languish in dismal dungeons to gratify our prejudices or our hates. Human life respected, liberty is safeguarded, property protected lawlessness has decreased, law abolished. Hardway robbery has almost ceased, piracy has been suppressed, slavery has been abolished." 0----00----0 Evidently the great publisher does not read the new in the many of his great Journals or he would see that many of the Medieval principles and practices which he declares abolished now exist and often in a more malignant form. True the boiling in oil has been succeeded by applications of hot tar. Burning at the stake is a pastime in some communities of the United States and the many Penal camps are living hells of torture. Hanging to trees and, yes, crucifying them is still practiced in this age of human progress—the hanging and spiking of a man to a tree in the State of Utah is a recent example. Liberty safe-guarded and property protected! Why certainly he cannot have read of the fight being made in the city of Detroit to save the lives of a man, his wife and baby, because that man was defending his home from the attacks of a mob, frenzied by racial prejudice and inflamed by hate. 0—'00—0 The trial of Dr. Sweet, and his companions should be an educational event in the history of this nation. It has brought to the attention of the world the incongruity of American law and American justice. It is a sacrifice on the part of the accused but it is worth the sacrifice to have the case of the American Negro brought before the Bar of Public Opinion. It has caused the eyes of the civilized world to see through the veneer of Christian supremacy as boasted by the United States, and has placed this nation in no envious light. Now is the time when every Negro in the United States should bend his energy; contribute of his means to make a successful fight for the principles which we have striven, lo, these many years. This is no time for "Resolving" but for direct action. ```markdown ``` You remember the Virgin Islands bought from the Danish government? Well, they are offering another problem (?) for the United States to solve. They are demanding to be made into full-fledged American citizens. That would not be so bad if 95 per cent of the inhabitants of the islands were not Negroes. Under the Danish law, which requires $300 property ownership as a qualification to vote, the minority givens, but the question arises. Would that same qualification hold with the acquisition of American citizenship? Having bought the Islands, have they also bought the Islanders? They say, Yes! 0000 It is remarked by many: How much space is given to the Jones-Rhinelander case by the big dailies, while little or no mention is given to the trial of Dr. Sweet and his companions, or the segregation case before the U. S. supreme court. It is a sade commentary on the part of the big journals, but a logical argument for the support of Race Journals. 0----00----0 Perry Howard has, once more, got himself in the lime light as "Me to boss." Negro, by his acknowledgment that he is employed by the Pullman Sleeping Car Company to thwart the organization of the porter. The other time was when Perry tried, unsuccessfully, to throw a wrench in the machinery of the N. A. A. C. P. in its advocacy of the anti-Lynching Bill.

ECHOES FROM GREAT OVATION TO MORRIS HARRIS AT THE BIG TRINITY AUDI TORIUM MEETING. Since the people have come to realize the great magnitude of the big demonstration given the inventor of the Harris Safety-First Check System and President of the World's Safety First. Mortgage Company; great are the compliments paid to his leadership. Expressions such as "I never would have believed it possible for such a scene as I witnessed at this great meeting," were common. These and others equally as striking his friends aver that they owe to Mr. Harris a debt of gratitude which they can never repay. He has by his inimitable genius brought the attention of the financial world to a realization of the latent powers of concentration of thought, that they are now knocking on the door for admission therein. With success assured for the Safety-First Check, the indomitable Harris, to make secure the glory thereof organized the World's Safety-First Mortgage Company and to this date there has been subscribed to the capital stock of this company more than $500,000.00 shares at a par value of Five Dollars per share. This stands way out as one of the biggest accomplishments ever put forth by our group anywhere in this country. Attorney Afue McDowell, is authority for the information as to the number of shares subscribed for in the World's Safety-First One Million Dollar Mortgage Company and we are sure that coming from such a source the genuineness of the statement cannot be questioned.

I have noticed from articles penned by both the Pinkerton and Burns agencies, that the Pinkerton agency is the most reliable system, and the Burns agency 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. 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.

A close up inspection of the Office of the Harris SafetvFirst Check System at 1419 West Jefferson Street, unfolds to the eye a most pretentious suite of officer which will favorably, indeed, compare with any offices of the kind in this great City. Manned throughout by Negro men, women, the typewriters are humming and each member of this office force always at their post of duty. Mr. Harris at his desk interviews hundreds daily and is on the job at times eighteen hours of the day. From the work accomplished by his genius the results thus far point to a tremendous opportunity and activity for our group and more especially our young men and women. Efficiency is the watchword at this citadel of effort and Mr. Harris demands of each employee to qualify for service. The Board of Directors meet often and keep posted at all times as to the status of the work which is entrusted to their care by the Stockholders. And very truly taking into consideration all angles, circumstances, results, actual and physical being of this far reaching concern at this moment cannot help but be classed as marvelous indeed. .....

WALKER SYSTEM PASADENA. It is very seldom that a young Negro athlete figures conspicuously in anything worth while when it comes to compensation or apparent reward for his strenuous efforts to uphold the high athletic standard of any institution of which he is a prominent factor. Stocks is a very energetic young boy and has time after time shown his ability. Now, to better decide who is who in athletic activities the Willys-Overland Company is "institution of sports," the most popular athlete, locally. Companies can be obtained from papers published prior to November 17th, which will be honored after being properly filled out, by the nearest Willys-Overland agency. The student body of Pasadena High has unanimously pledged their support to "Slick" and it is earnestly hoped that full support will be given him that he may be the victor. Let's get behind him and boost. 00- Mrs. O. E. Taylor is spending a few weeks in San Diego. Mrs. Dixon of South Orange is here for the winter. -00- Mrs. Cora Owens remains quite ill at her home. -00- Cupid's darts are still piercing tender hearts. Now comes the announcement of the marriage of Miss Ruth Prince to Mr. James McGregor away last August. -00- The Brotherhood of the First A. M. E. Church tendered a wonderful banquet last Friday evening to the pastor and family upon the occasion of his having completed the wonderful Church remodeling and also for his having been returned for another year. Officials and lay members are much elated over his continued services. -00- The Citizens Co-operative Council is surely making itself felt among the more thoughtful class of black folk of Pasadena. The last meeting was presided over by Dr. J. T. Whittaker, a man whose insight is most remarkable and his keen intuition has been the institution of many important subjects being brought to light. Rev W. D. Carter of Friendship Church was the main speaker using for his subject "Business and Professional Life" monologue and follo. He elaborated upon 3 issues pertaining to business and development of the Negro urging a closer relationship to business tactics, more concentration or objectives and greater confidence in those who launch business activities. He goes on to say further that the professional world more or less maintains its equilibrium but insists we establish and maintain a standard of efficiency. Another of our representative men, Atty. James Phillips has the distinction of being secretary of this organization. Mr. Phillips also belongs to that class of men who proffer and support great activities among our folk. The life and strength of this organization depends upon the support we give it. Are you a booster? THE CANTATA King Ashereus and Queen Esther made their debut to an appreciative audience on last Tuesday night at High School Auditorium arranged in costumes simply gorgeous, depicting the type of days long ago. Each participant individualized in his splendid array having wonderfully played their part, not as novies, but as professional actors, considering some have never appeared before the public. It was unfortunate, however, to have had such...weather, but many braved the storm to witness this mighty spectacle directed by the imitative impresario Capt. Wm. Reynolds, who has for years and years conducted choir and made presentations. All who attended expressed themselves as being highly pleased with the performance. Many demands have been made to repeat this Cantata which is expected in the near future. A very nice sum was realized from this effort under the auspices of the Organ Fund of which Mrs. Rhoda Calmore-Harris is president. The feature singing was done by Mrs. Cora Morrow which was very much enjoyed; also the playing by Mrs. Thelma Nelson. The part of King played by the Captain was most imposing and striking owing to his excellent physique. The new pipe organ of Friendship Baptist Church has arrived and is being installed as fast as possible. Mrs. Cora Morrow as soloist accompanied by Mrs. B. F. McAdoo entertained the audience at the recent inter-racial meeting held at Labor Temple on Walnut street. Many speakers were present who gave vent to their feeling concerning the economic theory as supported by W. B. Tipton. The N. A. A. C. P. affiliated with this meeting represented by Mrs. Cora J. Carter, president, who opened the discussion. This meeting was under the auspices of the Independent Voters League of Tasadena, being largely attended by members of both races.

CALIFORNIA EAGLE AUTOMOTIVE SECTION UPTON'S RAILROAD CLATTER By Chas. L. Upton S. P. DINING CAR EMPLOYEES CONFERENCE The conference between the management of the Southern Pacific and its cooks, and waiters, which was held recently in San Francisco for the purpose of adjusting working conditions and wages, turned out to be very unsatisfactory, no request asked for by the delegates was granted; Armed with a portfolio of data on the increase of living conditions, unjust discrimination between employees and dining car stewards, delegates F. L. Freeman and Clarence Johnson from Loe, Annie Division, paid in vain for an increase of 15 percent and elimination of the three hours deducted for meal periods before a merciless board of wage adjusters who turned a deaf ear to their pleas, offering them a deduction of 1 hour only. When back time was asked for the deduction of the 3 hours meal period, Mr. Torion, Ass't to Mr. Wade, jumped clear out of his chair. The management was represented by Mr. A. Polock, H. A. Butler, McIntyre, and Mr. Torion from the Southern end. This is rank discrimination between the Dining Car Stewards and other employees. The Stewards in the same line of work have no meal periods deducted, a decision which was recently handed down by the Labor board in Washington, D. C. gave the waiters operating on the Northwestern System 17 hours a day with no meal period designated, a $5 increase in pay. This decision coming from the Labor Board on practically the same issue that is being contended here, has resulted in the plan to take the case before that body as soon as possible, said Mr. McFarland, Chm Grv, Com, Oakland, Calif. Mr. McFarland is confident of a favorable adjustment being made at Washington, the case will be watched with interest and the results published in the The Railroad Clatter. Waiter J. C. Williams on account of the high cost of living believes in being economical, last week he spent the day in San Francisco enjoying a five cent show, and winding up as a spectator to a free baseball game. Mrs. Thomas Harrison is very ill at this writing, Traveling Chef Harrison has summoned the best medical aid possible. Mr. and Mrs. Cotton arrived in Los Angeles on train 109, last week and were greeted at the depot by J. Ellison, famous pantryman on the S. P. After consuming months of Alice and Kip Chinelander scandal, maybe The Railroad Clatter will receive some attention. Do you know water McGruder, girls? Well, he is single and Xmas is near. Mr. Percy Buck, what is your opinion of the meal hour period? Dr. John W. Rout, S. P. dining car waiter, went to San Francisco last summer. The State Board examination for Dentist, the boys who him the best of luck. The different meetings that are being conducted to discuss better working conditions and wages for the Pulman Porters at the S. P. Yards have brought forth many suggestions on the proper and most reasonable but are nevertheless sane and sensi-wage to ask for, many of which vary. However, it is to be hoped that the men wil concentrate their minds on a wage that will suit all classes—young and old alike. Mr. S. A. Hopgood seems to be the unseen power back of a political machine which is functioning smoothly to elect J. Prayer as the delegate to the conference although he has a brilliant young man to contend with in opposition to his candidate whom it is thought by many will run neck and neck. J. Bell, Sr., a newcomer in the district but, one whose prestige is not to be denied is working night and day to elect his man and a hot race is looked forward to; let us hope that the best man wins. Too bad we cannot send them both, they are both good. Mr. Joe Holmes, who made his first trip to St. Louis last week on the new line now operated by Los Angeles, reports meeting Mr. Joseph Dickson, who formerly operated the St. Louis line on the California Limited for 15 years and has many friends here. Mr. Dickson has a most gorgeous home and a wonderful wife who knows what the world hospitality means. Mr. and Mrs. Dickson reside at 3824 Cook Ave. I was also the guest of Mr. and Mrs. R. R. Turner while in St. Louis who showed me many places of interest such as The New West-End Hotel, The Paladora Cafe and the valuable site at Jefferson and Market, where a Bank operated entirely by colored people will soon be erected. The position of Welfare Worker for the Los Angeles District continues to go begging for want of a qualified man; those who have been mentioned as eligible are: J. T. Ambrose, J. Montgomery, S. A. Hopgood all of whom have turned it down—Them that want it, cannot get it, and them that can get it, do not want it. Maid Hazel Boswell was injured last week when she went to get off a street care at Jefferson and Normandie Ave., she is now under the care of Dr. Dutffield and can be seen at the Maids quarters on the West Side. Some of the Los Angeles maids have been taking an active part in the Employees representation plan meetings and have formed plans in which to get back the privilege of putting up tables in vacant spaces on the train as an advertising feature, a slight increase will also be asked for. The following Maids have attended the meetings and are now taking an active part in forcing their clams through the employees representation plan, Mrs. Blanche Mattison, Marie Carter and Mrs. C. L. Upton; all Maids who are interested will please get in touch with Maid B. Mattison. Otto Johnson says, if you want to find out who is getting old in this district, put them on the Padre where they have to catch a 16 see car; he recommends that W. E. Mitchell put in his application to go down on the Company farm in Tennessee at once; Mitchell missed the 16 see twice, and it had to be Otto. Mr. J. L. Hill, Mgr. of The Angelus Funeral Home has extended to the Porters of Los Angeles the use of a large room next to the one he keeps his caskets in to hold their meetings in. We thank you, Mr. Hill, we thank you. Mr. J. Bell, Sr., has purchased a new Chandler sedan, which is some car. The writer wishes to correct an error in connection with Mr. S. A. Hopgood. We mentioned Mr. Hopgood as being married; Mr. Hopgood is single. LEGAL POINTS AND POINTERS Questions Answered By: Atty. Calvin W. Murdock 1400 Central Ave. Q. What is means by Insurance? A. Insurance is a contract whereby one undertakes to indemnify another against loss, damage, or liability, arising from man unknown or contingent event, or the not happening of some specified event. Also, Insurance is a species of property. A person paying for insurance cannot be said to not have received anything in return even if the peril insured against never happens, as he had the protection while the insurance was in force, and he has been relieved of the necessity of making any reserve or accumulation to meet a possible loss if the peril had occurred. Q. What constitutes an insurance risk? The event which may cause loss or damage insured against is called the risk or peril. These risks or perils may be divided into three classes: 1. Those relating to property; 2. Those relating to the human body, and 3. Those relating to business. Q. What are the rights of a beneficiary in ordinary insurance companies? A. The rights of a beneficiary, designated as a recipient of moneyes to be paid under an ordinary contract of life insurance, are vested and indefeasible without his consent; that is, he has the right to recover any moneyes that ultimately may become due under the terms of the contract, tween the insurer and the insured. Q. How are beneficiaries determined? A. In construing a life insurance contract to determine who are the beneficiaries thereunder, rules similar to those used in construing a will are applied. Words are not always given their technical meaning, but are construed according to the sense in which they are used thus, the word "heirs" will not necessarily be construed in its legal sense, but may be held to include next of kin; tho, if any intention is shown to use "heirs" in its technical sense, that meaning will be given thereto. The word "children" may include grandchildren, or adopted children if such was the intention shown by the contract. Q. How is the premium determined? A. The premium is the sum paid by the insured as a consideration for the contract of insurance.

Proceeds Of Dance At Legion Club Monday Night December 14, Go For Sweet Fund AMERICAN LEGION TO CALL Proceeds Of Dance At Le December 14, Go The Benjamin J. Bowie Post of the American Legion is going to do its share toward helping the N. A. A. C. P. win its fight for Negro property owners. The N. A. A. C. P. is paying all expenses of the Detroit City Sweet case and the funds are being raised by popular subscription. Following an appeal made to the Legionaires at their meeting last Monday night, by Dr. Claude Hudson, the Legion has decided to give the receipts of their Monday night dance to the N. A. A. C. P-Sweet Fund. This dance is being held at the Legion Club on East 12th street and musi- is being played by the California Symphony. A large crowd is expected because of the benefit connection and the splendid entertainment combined. First Annual Musicale SAINT PAUL BAPTIST CHURCH CHOIR UNDER DIRECTION OF MME. F. MARIE BRAWLEY SCORES MIGHTY SUCCESS. The St. Paul Church's First Annual Musicale on last Tuesday evening went over the top in all its glory and fulness. Deservedly so for that matter for Madame F. Marie Brawley had everything necessary for it to go over with. In short, it was about the niftiest setting and as varied and competent arrangement as one would wish to see and hear. The big chorus was most solldily trained for the occasion and real harmony was evident to a superlative degree. The Ladies Glee Club also came up with flying colors to make the occasion great. The concert or musicie is indeed worthy of special mention and each number rendered of praise, space however, forbids detailed reviews of the accomplishments other than in the fewest possible words. Miss Hoard's inspirational "Out of the Depths," was indeed rendered up to her high standard as a singer. Miss Mattie L. Duckett, who has made an enviable reputation in the musical world lived up to the same. Chas. Boston, premier soloist, pleased immensely as did Lilie Nickerson in the mixed chorus. Miss Mildred Washington as a Reader excelled; her readings are superb, she put her soul in her reading and does it so well that she stands way out in front as a reader. Miss Cora B. Morrow filled her niche with high credit as obligator. Miss Velma Wood demonstrated her prowess at the piano in faultless manner and indeed demonstrated ten rare ability as a star in the firmament of the musical realm. The St. Paul Church and its management is to be congratulated upon the success of its first Annual Musicale, because they failed at no point to live up to every rekuirement and presented a program which will be hard to excel at any time o rplace. WHY SOME DON'T WORK By: F. P. Boykins Because they can't have their own way in everything. Because they don't receive abundant applause of men for each effort set forth. Because someone has misjudged them or perhaps unintentionally slighted them. Because they have not their eyes open to the good they might do if they tried. Because they are chronic invalids and live in doubting castles, and all their time is occupied complaining about themselves and fighting against their doers. Because they are not set on fire by the elements of divine love, as God intended and are in some degree in a cold and back slidden state. Because the viper of indifference has got hold of them as they have been warming by the world's fire and swollen them up with the pride of heart. FOX YEAR TO CLOSE WITH XMAS PARTY. While most of the Foxes' energy is being consumed in mapping out stupendous plans for the coming year of 1926, enough has been set inside to end up this year in a most fitting manner. The same being an after Christmas party at the Humming Bird on the 28th of this month. Invitations are now on the way so, young people keep close tab on the postman, that yours goes not as astray. Those of you who remember 'Palm Inn' last spring, know what to expect when the Foxes turn out, and for the benefit of those who know not, we can only say that; when you miss a "Fox Affair" you may as well have never lived. Plans for next year are being made faster than Ford productions, so the public can expect much from the Foxes in 1926.—The Silver Fox Year! Come and Charleston, come and prance. Come to the Rho Psi Phi Soror's dance. Pity. Cents is the rate; January eight is the date. Rutherford Academy is the place. The Omega Psi Phi Fraternity will give a dance at Rutherford's Hall, Friday evening, December 18th. --- If You Fail To Read—THE CALIEORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened By: NOAH M. THOMPSON Scientifically speaking electricity is the only thing that can shock any member of our young generation of the twentieth century. Miss Rita Cohen, charming member of the famous Sweet Sixteen Club entertained the bunch at her home from 5 until 8 last Sunday evening. Mr. Tuttie Banks will not have to burn so much gas now that Miss Henrietta Walker who hails from Watts has moved into the Angel city. So to speak. Ye Sparks Editor wishes to suggest that all of the boys who are still doing some strenuous knifing and expeget to get away with it, glance at their wallets, because Xmas is close on your trail. Miss Mae Alice Turner, charming secretary of our local Junior N. A. A. C. P. who has been ill for the past three weeks, has erased her name from the sick list, and is out again raring to go. How is this for a definition of a "Social Struggle." A "Social Struggle" is a forced action that is executed when trying to dance at a crowded party or dance. Eh, what? Last Sunday evening ye Sparks Editor was the dinner guest of Misses Marie Mason and Thelma Gault at the cosey apartment of Miss Gault, 914 N. Alverado. No! Mr. Harry L. Johnson says, a Ford is somewhat like a radio receiving set. He can pick up anything. Miss Myrtle McDaniel says if you want to see something swell, just take a spunge and put it in water. We are sure that everyone had a keen time at the Bellette Club. Pre-hooliday dance which was staged at the Humming Bird, Friday evening. A romantic suggestion.

Miss Helen Turner wants to know just who this young man is, that is so warm that he carries an electric fan to keep himself cool, and now then has to have his damper turned down.

LOS ANGELES LEAGUE OPENS NEW HEADQUARTERS ON CENTRAL AVENUE; LARGE SOCIAL SERVICE PRO- GRAM ARRANGED FOR 1926 The local branch of the Urban League now occupies its new headquarters at 1325 South Central Ave. The eleven-center building formerly used by Prof. Wm. T. Wilkins as a music studio has been thoroughly renovated and equipped for the nationally known social service organization. The Los Angeles Urban League is a member of the Community Chest. Its recent report of efficient and effective social service work among our group together with its valuable aid in collecting funds during the recent campaign of the Community Chest so satisfied the management that funds for the year 1926 have been appropriated in order that the good work may be kept up. "Larger quarters than those formerly used by the organization are required," says Mrs. Katherine Barr, Executive Secretary, "so that the larger program which has been arranged and approved may be carried out during the coming year. The new quarters are located right in the heart of the "black belt," within easy reach of those of our group needing assistance. 'Not aims, but opportunity,' is the motto of the organization." Preparation is nearly completed for a formal opening of the "centre" to which the public will soon be cordially invited. Membership in the local organization number about 500. A group of prominent men and women of both race comprise the board of directors who supervise the work of the executive secretary and her staff of assistants. LAST RITES OF THOMAS ALEX ANDER TOGLIENCE Thomas Alexander Torrence was born Feb. 1118, 1882 in the state of Alabama. He was the eldest of seven children of William and Elizabeth Torrence. In his early childhood he was taken by his parents to Pantherburn, Mississippi, where he received his schooling. He was converted under the pastorate of Rev G. P. Phillip, though young he became very active in the church and his auxiliaryes. The pastor took a deep interest in him and gave him special help in his Christian development. To better his condition and make a better living he left Mississippi and went to Oklahoma City, where he met Miss Mitty Rayford whom he soon learned to love and afterwards married in 1910. In 1911 they came to the West and made their home in Los Angeles. Immediately they united with one Mr. Zion Baptist Church under Dr. J. J. Hill and became very active; he was soon chosen as chairman of the Trustee Board and was found over his post and took great interest in the development of the church along spiritual as well as financial lines. He remained in the church and the other members of his family cast their lot with the great Second Bantist Church under the leadership of the venerable and sainted Dr. H. D. Prowd. He was very active in the work of this church and served as a member of the Chair, as Chief Usher and a Trustee. He was loved by the entire membership of the church and was most popular with all who knew him. Mr. Toreence was of a jovial yet stern disposition and stood as a side partner to the pastor and dear friend to his family. He never failed to lend a helping hand to the sick or "less fortunate. It was sometimes thought best to rest the sick or worked trying to relieve the distressed. He was a $32^{\circ}$ Mason, a constant member of the K. P.; G. U. O. of O. F. and Court of Calanthe. While most dutiful to his fraternities he gave the greater part of his time to his church activities. He became suddenly sick and was immediately confined to his bed where he remained until the end. He was sick only five days having passed this life Saturday, Nov. 28th, 6 a.m. He is survived by a tenderly affectionate wife, Mrs. Mittie Torrence; two brothers, G. C. Torrence of Chicago, Ill., and G. A. Torrence, Renova, Miss.; two sisters, Mrs. Ellen Moore, Arkansas City, Mrs. Martha Strong of Miss.; a devoted mother-in-law, Mrs. H. Rayford and brother and sister-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Aaron Caviness; a host of relatives and friends.

We were up to their usual standard and attracted splendid audiences. The pastor will deliver a special sermon on next Sunday evening from the subject, "Lessons from the Rhinelander Case." Te Annual Rally is under way. Splendid progress has been made. Great results are promised for the culmination on the 28th of February. A very fine and cozy rest room has been provided for the ladies and fills a long felt need at the church. The ladies are to be commended for the work they have done in this regard. The choir and Sunday School are busy with Xmas music. The choir will have its program on Sunday evening, December 27th and the Sunday School will have their exercises as usual on Xmas evening. This is the church of the cordial welcome. It is the "House of Helpfulness." Come and see. Rev. R. B. Hendricks, D. D., Pastor In keeping with the beautiful weather which added interest and inspiration, so were our services Sunday filled. It being the first Sunday, Holy Communion was administered, and with the wonderful Gospel messages from the pastor at both services we feel able to go through another week. Our services are marked with steady interest both in number and spirit. Our first Sunday offering was an excellent expression of our interest. The Junior Choir is rendering very excellent services both morning and evening services, preparations are also in making for an adult choir. We are soliciting members. The third Sunday of this month holds a lovely surprise to all present. Something different from anything yet to come to the eyes of Los Angeles.

PAUL HAPTIST INSTITUTIONAL CHURCH R. N. Holt, D. D., Pastor Sunday marks another eventful day in the history of St. Paul. Seats were at a premium at the eleven o'clock service in the spacious auditorium from every quarter came those that desired to witness the baptizing and to gather facts as promulgated by Pastor Holt from the subj: "The King's Orders." Text, "Here is water, what doth hinder me?" The argument presented from this subject is unanimous and convincing. All present rejoiced in the fact that they were not only Christians but Baptist made in due form. One new candidate for baptism came forward to join those in waiting; following this the ordinance of Baptism was carried out while shouts told of the S. B.

In following Jesus let us follow Him all the way, in this word you shall have tribulation, but in Christ Jesus you will have peace and if you are a follower of Jesus you must follow Him in doing service here. He said, Go into my vineyard and work and a true follower of Jesus is not shifty. Night service the pastor preached, his text, Matt. 6:20—But lay up for yourselves treasures in Heaven, where thieves do not break through nor steal. Come to our services you are welcome. CHRISTIAN CHURCH 33rd and Hooper Avenue M. Frederick Mitchell, Pastor Pastor Mitchell stirring his splendid audience last Lord's Day used as a subject-text, "Except ye abide in the ship ye cannot be saved." Preceding the morning service at our church we had impressive baptismal service at the Birch St. Church. The illustrated lecture of Bible Picture at Y. W. C. A. was greatly enjoyed by the full house at the Y. W. C. A. Building. Sister Ruff continued her lecture at our church Sunday night. Just before the sermon in pictures commenced, the Endeavor Society led by Mrs. Katie McNear had a live session. We will be a fine missionary program at eleven o'clock. The general subject will be "Te Aged People." Mr. Green will be the special soloist. Picture-sermon and young people's meeting in the evening. We manifest special interest in strangers. BETHEL A. M. E. CHURCH 1511 W. 36th St. Major G. W, Prioleau, Pastor A splendid crowd of children attended the Sunday School last Sunday—Several visitors from other schools. The pastor conducted and preached to a large congregation under some difficulties at the morning service, he having just before the services begun fell from the back porch of the church, which shook him up a little, he was able to conduct the evening service with difficulty. The two Endeavor Societies were largely attended. The Missionary Society of the church was entertained at the residence of Mrs. Quinn, West 35th Pl., last Thursday and reported a very profitable meeting. TABERNACLE BAPTIST CHURCH 12th and Hemlock Sts. Rev. J. D. Gordon. Pastor Sunday School began at 9:30 o'clock and was well attended. The lesson was about "Paul in a Storm at Sea." "If I be lifted up from the earth I'll draw all men onto me," was the pastor's sermon at the morning hour as he spoke to the splendid audience. B. Y. P. U. is still progressing rapidly under its great leader, Mr. J. D. Teal. The audience listened to another one of those excellent programs rendered by the True and Tried Class. Don't fail to hear the Ever Ready. The pastor gave a special talk to the Sinners Sunday night urging them to follow the Lord, after which the audience quietly departed. Strangers are, cordially invited to worship with us. FIRST A. M., E. ZION CHURCH Pico and Paloma Sunday, December 13th The Order of Elks Lodge will convene in our Church at 3:00 in the afternoon. Rev. Moore will deliver the memorial sermon for the occasion. Rev. Moore's subject for last Sunday morning was taken at Revelation "The Measure of a Man". It was replete with stirring phrases and eloquent appeals that made one desire to measure up to the full standard of Christ. The Endeavor and Sunday School are in excellent condition. Both have profitable services to which you are invited. The evening sermon was delivered by Pastor Moore. His subject was "Doubt." In part Rev. Moore said: "Doubt separates a man from God. It is the worse sin a man can commit against himself. It is treason or soul-suicide. It creates turmoil, diminishes enthusiasm, undermines hope, paralyses faith, weakens effort. It is also a barrier to the kingdom and a passkey to damnation. The remedy was pointed out to do like Doubting Thomas, get close enough to the Savior to feel the nail prints in His hands and to touch the wound in His side—then like Thomas you will cry aloud—"My Lord and my God. You cannot doubt if you keep in close touch with the Master. Simply touch the hem of His garment." Sunday, Dec. 13th dinner will be served in the church dining room by Steward Board No. 1. They always have plenty of good eats and excellent service. Prayer and class each Wednesday night. Attend these services if you desire a blessing. The Xmas Concert will excel all previous affairs. The Choir is doing good work. A cordial welcome awaits visitors and friends at Zion. A Sabbath well spent, means a week of contenta WESLEY M. E. CHURCH 8th and San Julian Sts. Rev. A. P. Shaw, Pastor Do not fail to hear the pastor's great sermon on Getting Ready for Christmas this Sunday morning. The Young Peoples Temperance Society of Bovle Heights will be in charge of the evening services. Last Sunday was a record breaker. We had the second largest number of communicans in the history of the largest regular collection, $220.50. This was no rally, nor dollar day. When visitors come to see us once they like to return. Do you believe it? Come and see. MT. ZION BAPTIST CHURCH 50th and Hooper Ave. Rev. F. H. Prentice, Pastor Sunday was a high day at Zion. Rev. C. H. Hampton, Colpator and young minister of the Second Bantist Church, spoke for us in the morning from John 14:6. Subj: "Christ the way." Jesus the panacea for all our ills. Rev. Messer of Philadelphia spoke in the evening. Text, "Come see a man who told me every thing which ever I did. After testimonials the Communion was administered by pastor Prentice. One accession.

TRINITY BAPTIST CHURCH 36th and Normandie Sts. The Sunday School was well attended and the lesson as presented by the corps of teachers was well received. The children are preparing a Christmas program which bids fair to be something out of the ordinary. The attendance at the morning service was above the average, and the presence of the Holy Spirit was felt from the beginning of the service. The pastor spoke a few minutes from the subject, "Be ye doers of the Word," and at the conclusion of his remarks he converted the service into a testimonial meeting. Rev. P. B. Cornellus, pastor of the McCavary Baptist Church, Tuscon, Riz., filled the pulpit at the evening hall. His text found in John 21:22 and his text was "Following Jesus." His sermon showed that he had not only spent much time in the study of God's Word but he had had a deal of experience as a gospel minister. The Lord's Supper was administered at this service. A special Song and Praise Service was held at our church on Wednesday night of last week. This meeting was conducted by Mozelle Te Outley, our musical directress and the musician who filled the choir for more than an hour. The meeting very largely attended and a spiritual feast was enjoyed by all. BETHEL BAPTIST CHURCH 4714 Hooper Ave. Rev. H. D. Prowd, Pastor Our Sunday, School was full of scholars and also of interest. Our District Missionary, Rev. Mr. Wade, was with us in bulk and his usual offering. The children were surprised to see such a big man—and declared they would tell their parents about him. At the 11 o'clock service, Dr. Prowd preached from the text, "I was not disobedient unto the Heavenly Vision." The word was in power with evidence of Divine aid and approval. Dr. Wade followed with appreciative remarks. At 7 P. M. the B. Y. P. U. had a spirited meeting. At 8 P. M. the Rev. Mr. Little appeared before us in costume illustrative of Eastern custom and gave us a most helpful Bible Reading and interpretation. Dr. Little brought along a number of articles used in the East and illustrating the Bible teachings. All enjoyed the message of the King. The usual service this week.

This writer, as stated before, has nothing but the highest personal regard for Governor Friend Richardson. We have, however, a duty to perform and that duty is to speak up at all times for the people whom we serve. Thus far, he has signally failed to do good or to do what is right, and is room for the salvation of the soul from the "stirup to the ground", there is yet room for the substantial recognition of this group at he hands of the chief executive of our state. For instance, there are some sixteen municipal judges to be named in the city of Los Angeles, and there is no good reason why he should not look over the many outstanding legal lights of our group and give to us recognition in the judiciary of our state. The crux of the situation is, we want recognition, we are entitled to it and we want, out here on these western shores, to feel that our efforts to stay put have not been in vain. Yes, give to us a judge and give to us any other consideration to which any other people aspire and we will assure the governor that we will hold the same with not only credit to the group, but to the state and the nation as well.

JOHN MISSIONARY BAPTIST CHURCH ( Continued from last issue ) One visit to-this location satisfied him that this was the work which he was chosen to build up. Rev. Knox readily connected himself with the New Hope Baptist Church. As a member he was rightfully ordained, according to the laws of the Baptists of this State which gave him the authority of accepting a church as pass- He Confronted Obstacles In 1920 there was no St. John. At this time, being led by the Holy Spirit, he began looking up those that were once a part of this little church. He found three, who however, having no record as an organized church, he brought these together and proceeded to organize at once which was during the month of May in the same year. They called him to A. E. Rev. Knox the pastorage of what was then, and now is. St. John Missionary Baptist Church, located at 1546 Palomares Street, Los Angeles, California, getting the property back to its rightful owners, the St. John Missionary Baptist Church. He took his own finance and the assistance of Brother A. Hill and going through a process of law in the courts of Los Angeles and County, he was successful in inaving the doors unlocked to its rightful owners. His first congregation, consisted of the Holy Spirit, one officer of the law and one or two members of the church. His first campaign for souls was the real work that was done. In this campaign several more connected themselves as members of the Church. His courageous spirit, his fearless tactics and his undaunted love made him a spiritual, financial and numerical power and booster for that in which his heart was wrapped up, St. John Church.

OBITUARY Of HUEL, NATHANIEL BROOKS (By Mrs. H. H. Williams) "Beloved, now are we the Sons of God? It loth not yet appear what we shall be but we know that when He shall appear we shall be like Him as He is." Huel Nathaniel Brooks was born in Temple Texas, February 9 1898. At the age of fifteen months, his parents moved to Pueblo Colorado. His father Mr. M. B. Brooks, was an exhorter in the African Methodist Church; his father a minister, and his mother a member of the Baptist church, belonging to the choir and active in all its auxiliaries. This would naturally make him a regular attendant both at the public schools. He attended the public schools of Pueblo and at the early age of 13 years he was promoted to the public High School. January 23rd, 1914, he with his widowed mother, he came to Los Angeles, California. He entered the Los Angeles High School February, 1914, and had the honor of being a graduate from that School February 3rd, 1916, just before his 18th, birthday. During his School years, in Los Angeles he was a constant attendant of the Tabernacle Baptist Sunday School. After leaving School, he became a Post Office Messenger boy, and upon passing the Civil Service examination, he became a Mail Clerk in the Post Office; he did not have to work on the outside. After 1918 he became a professional Movie Picture Actor. His splendid pictures can be seen in many of the leading theatres, as he was employed by some of the best Company's. He was married to Miss Carry Brown of Downey, California. There was born to this marriage a daughter, now a bright little girl of six years. Having an engagement with a moving Picture Cone, he left this city Jan. 1920, and traveled all thru this state, making pictures. On his return he resided with his mother, Mora. Dora Brooks of 2618 Nevin Avenue. In the early part of 1925, he became identified with the Masonic order, Angel City Lodge. It was one of the unrune joys of his life to be a mason. He was a casual visitor of the Independent Church, when in the company with friends. It was only a few weeks ago when he was taken seriously; then many of the members of St. John's Church, including Pastor, visited him and prayed for the First Sunday in October, Sister C. M. Couture and Sister M. Johnson were the last to stay with him. After they left his mother read to him the tenth chapter of Romans 9-10 verses. Then, he confessed the Lord Jesus, the Christ and said he believed he was saved. He asked his mother to forgive him and said he wanted to be baptized, but he grew weaker and weaker all the time. That he might have constant and experienced care, he went to the hospital, where his dear mother visited him, and they would pray together and talk about Jesus. He was kind and affectionate to his him, and they would pray together serve them. He had the profoundest respect for his mother and regretted that he had not been more worthy of her. His mother and cousins were at his bedside in the last hours of his life. He seemed to enjoy hearing his mother sing: "Jesus Paid it All" and "Safe in the Arms of Jesus." Twenty-seven years ago, he was born the son of man and laid safely in his mother's arms. October 24th, 1925 he had a new birth and was born again—born from above, born a Son of God. December 2nd, 1925, at 10:25 P. M. safe in the Arms of Jesus, he took his flight to Glory. "This God is ours forever and ever. He will be our guide, even unto death." He leaves, a devoted mother, a little daughter, an aged grandmother loyal cousins and a host of friends to mourn his loss. "Be still, my Soul! Thy God does undertake, To guide the future, as He has the past; Thy hope, thy confidence, let nothing shake, All now mysterious, shall be bright at last." SACRAMENTO The news of the death of Mrs. Emily Boyd in Oakland is indeed a gag shock to her many friends in this city where she made her home for many years before going to Oakland to reside. Among the many friends are a number of relatives here, who are Mrs. E. Brown, Mrs. U. G. Holland and Mrs. L. P. Dunnie who have gone down to be present at the funeral. The family has our deepest sympathy in this their bereavement. Sunday afternoon in Unity Hall at 2 p.m. the Sacramento Lodge No. 2189 and the H. H. of Ruth No. 3951 field memorial services for the late Deputy District Grand Master of G. L. N. 302 G. U. O. of O. F. J. H. Bate. A very impressive program was rendered. Mr. P. F. O'Reilly acted as the Master of ceremonies. Mr. B. A. Johnson gave the eulogy and Mr. Jacob Soreas spoke of the loss to him of a loyal friend and brother and read some beautiful resolutions. Mrs. J. V. Brown rendered a very touching piano selection and Mrs. M. I. Flood sang "The end of a perfect day," most sympathetically, Mrs. Zarretta Ohy accompanied Mrs. Flood on the piano, Mr. Chas. Johnson is still confined to bed in a most serious condition. Mr. C. S. Flood suffered a sprained back one day last week while at his work and was confined to bed for several days. He is improving. Mrs. W. Richardson is recovering from a severe cold which kept her in doors for a few days. Mrs. Jacob Peyton leaves the latter part of this week to join her husband in Oakland, where they will engage in business, having sold their restaurant here some time ago. We are truly glad for Miss 'C. S. that nothing more serious happened to when her coupe which she was driving away with her and cleared the highway with everything insight and landed her right side up rather suddenly. (Her father told me so.) Miss Cleo Sparks spent the week end in Woodland and was the house guest of Miss Florence Machum Mr. W. Walker of North Sacramento is making an addition to his house by building two more rooms. Mr. Walker is doing most of the building himself and is thus proving himself to be a carpenter as well as a proficient farmer. Mrs. J. H. Walker was the guest of the white Pelican Club of Grulley Saturday evening at their annual entertainment. She was the only one of her race on the mobile prology and was highly complimented. Mr. Walker accompanied her on the trip and shared the royal treatment given Mrs. "E. W. R."—is happy that she captured her husband and released him from the arm of an unknown caucasian lady, as he thoughtlessly assisted her from the street car as she stepped in front of his wife, and marched on talking to her all the while, thinking he had his wifes arm. When Mrs. E. W. saw them march off leaving her waiting, she called to him and in quiried where he was going. He discovered his embarrassing position hurriedly returned to his wife living with all care from the car which was waiting and proceeded to Odd Fellows. Hall there they were headed to attend the memorial services. The affair caused much amusement among the crowd aboard the car. Don't fail to attend the Masquerade Ball January 1, 1926, at Odd Fellows Hall. THE FOUR BEASTS By: Pastor C. P. Conea 'And the Four Beasts said, Amen.' Rev. 5:14. Synopsis of sermon preached at Christ Temple Church, Nov. 8, 1925. They who get to Heaven, the innumerable host of the blood bought and redeemed, will probably no more see four beasts there than they will see a lamb with seven horns and seven eyes. John did not see Heaven just as it was or is, but as God caused it to appear to him to symbolize the glory and will of God. The Heaven he saw was symbolized. The lamb with seven eyes and seven horns symbolized the Christ in his humble estate yet all-wise and all-powerful. A MYSTERY---MY STORY Now I want you to allow me to speak of a mystery. There are millions upon millions of individualities in Heaven, but there is but one life—that eternal life which was with the Father and has been made manifest unto us. 1 John 1:1-3. CHRIST IN US This one life is, as you see, the life which was brought to us, the Christ Life. The life of the church is Christ. The mystery of godliness is "God manifest in the flesh." That is Christ. I Tim. 3:16. It is Christ in you the hope of glory. Col. 1:25-29. THE FOUR BEASTS SYMBOLS The cherubim or the Four Beasts were symbols, evidently, as was the Lamb. Now they were worshippers of God and they had four faces—(1) The face of a Lion, (2) The face of a Calf, (3) The face of a man, (4) The face of a flying Eagle. What did this symbolize? Evidently the four aspects of the redemptive life of Christ in the church. Did you know that the church is a seamless institution, with every number thereof? if born from above? The Christian under grace. Rom. 6:14) is unlike the Jewish church which was under the law. Rom. 10), and is a resurrected institution sitting in Heavenly places in Christ. Eph. 2. A HEAVENLY LIFE Therefore the life of the true church is a mystery, something entirely foreign to the unregenerate world, and has the four salient aspects of the cherubim of glory. EZEKIEL'S LIVING CREATURE Ezekiel saw in his vision the unity of these four faces in one living creature having four faces, all moving together. This indicated, as we are made to see it, the missionary labors of the God-filled church. JOHN'S FOUR BEASTS But we want to speak of the symbolism of the four faces of John's our Beasts. 1. The Face of a Lion. We read in Proverbs 28:1, "The wicked fleeth when no man pursueth, but the rigidest as bold as a lion." The Lion was the symbol of the tribe of Judah, the ruling tribe in Israel, for which tribes all Israelites are now called Jews. But the lion was also the symbol of the Christ who was called "the lion if the tribe of Judah." The lion represented strength, bravery, majesty, dignity, royalty, grandeur. Under all Heaven there is nothing as brave as the Christian who has the Christ Spirit, the Christ-mind. 1 Cor. 2. His bravery is not physical bravado, but courage under trial—the bravery that goes shouting to the cross and singing to the yoke; that has no fear of the future and conquers the dread of the present; that wing assured of victory remains unconquered. Bold as a lion. Not prediatory, not blood-thirsty, but bold for what is right. Amen. Nor rabbits in God's Kingdom. Heaven's life is brave. Rev. 21:6-8. 2. The face of a Calf. Now the calf was opposite of the lion. This was not the full grown bullock with strong sinews, terrible horns and hoofs and fierce mein, but the calf, the wearing. Not the calf is regarded as weak and silly. He was used as a sacrifice. And when grown, he wore the yoke of service, pulled the plow, trot out the grain, drew the cart and eventually died that others might live. Therefore the calf symbolized the suffering side of the Christ-life, the self-denial, the reproach, the humility necessary to carry out the plans of God in the redemption of men. I need not elaborate this point. You see it readily. To some people the Christian is a silly being who does not use his brain and assert his manhood, but in the vision of God, in the eternal and unalterable purposes of the Almighty, he has the reeve clean, Heaven's blood, blood reeve clean, the one dedicated to God and to doing good. 3. The Face of a Man. It is the Christ-redeemed, Christ-filled man also to be a man among men. Said Isaiah, "Remember and show yourselves men." Said Paul, "Quit yourselves like men. Be strong." We are citizens of two worlds. While we are Heavenly minded and our citizenship is in Heaven (Phill. 2) we are also members of human society and under the government of this world. Indeed the Christ was God's ideal man, and "as He is, so are we in this world." 1 John 4. Therefore we must pay our debts, meet our notes, keep our contracts, pay our taxes, serve our governments, interest ourselves in the welfare of our fellows—indeed, "be ready to every good work." Romans 18; Titus 8. Quit you like men. Be strong. There is the man side, the human side to our religion. But it must be incumulated by the God side. 4. The Face of a Flying Eagle. The Eagle was the king of birds, the master in the realm of the air. He stood for the exaltedness of the Christ- FRIDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1925 mind, the glory of the redeemed imagination that mounts above the petty trials of earth and banks in the sunlight of the eternal God of faith. Amen! They that wait on the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings as eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not "faint." Isa. 40. The Glory of the Christ-life! Do you know aught-of it? Are you blood-washed? Born again? Spirit-filled? Then these things are not hid from you. Amen!

CARR HITS TWO HOME RUNS AS ROYALS DRIVE PAYNE TO THE BENCH Hitting Of Pullen, Rogan and Hudspeth Is Big Factor In Defeat Of White Kings Hitting Of Pullen, Rogan and Hudspeth Is Big Factor In Defeat Of White Kings White Sox Park fans Sunday had the satisfaction of seeing George Payne driven from the pitcher's mound although smart old Doc Crandall's strategy saved the lucky Paye from being credited with a defeat. Crandall pulled Paye when the score was a tie and inserted Barfoot the leading pitcher of the Coast League. The 11 to 5 vicory batted out by the Royals was chalked up as a loss against Barfoot. George Carr's home runs, Wally Hood's one handed catch of Day's iner and the rallies of the Royals to catch up were only some of the features that kept the capacity crowd cheering all afternoon. Rogan was in his usual winning form, loose fielding was the cause of the several runs being scored. Three fast double plays saved him when a hit meant a run. In the first inning an error by Hudspeth and a jugged ball by Mackey contributed two runs in the Kings' total and a pop fly off Jenkins' that dropped safely in the third inning together with a double steel added to the The White Kings played every trick that they knew to win but the Giants playing before the large Sunday crowd were unbeatable.

This is the usual story of the usual Saturday game at the White Sox Park and it ended as usual and Rube Curry was taken out of the game as usual. Britton finished as usual and he instead of Curry is credited with losing the game. The score was White Kings 7, Philadelphia Royals 4. Because of his excellent showing in finishing games recently, Manager Goodwin decided to start willing Ruben, Saturday. Rube tried hard but he was in hot water all of the three innings he pitched. He allowed six hits (two to an inning) and they were the real article. They accounted for three runs and included homers by Golvin and Brazil and a double by Hood. The Royals scored in the first inning when Holloway beat out a bunt and scored on a sacrifice fly by Rogan after having been advanced to third on George Cart's single. Two hits in the fourth inning were for three runs for the Royals and the three runs gave them a one run lead until the fatal eight. Carr was hit by Root to start the game and Mackey next up was walked. Rogan pushed a bunt by Root who finally picked up the ball and threw it wild to first. Carr and Mackey scored. Dixon fanned and reliable Neal Pullen singled scoring Rogan. Root then whiffed Hudspeth and Britt. The teams went along this way until the eighth. Durst started by hitting safely for two outs. Lindsy and Golven of then Britt walked Sanberg. Doc Crandall and he broke up the game by hitting the first ball pitched for a home run. The Kings added one more run in the ninth but that was unnecessary. Lonnie Goodwin had a lead already.

ALEXANDER AND PAT LESTER FOUGHT A DRAW The referee raised both the gloves of Vetor Alexander and Pat Lester at the conclusion of their six-round semi-windup in San Francisco last Friday night. Vic returned immediately to Los Angeles to train for his match with Neal Clysbe at the Olympic Club this past Wednesday night. HING OUT BY JIMMIE SMITH It finally had to come. "SUCCESS!" For Lonnie Goodwin it has been a long, hard wait punctuated with only an occasional ray of hope far away on the horizon of realization. Lonnie Goodwin is now the 'fairhaired' manager of western baseball. "SUCCESS" has finally been coaxed into the Goodwin household and it seems taken up a permanent residence. Some of those who don't know will tell you that the Royal Giants manager is lucky, now that the turnstiles spin to admit thousands to his baseball par. Lucky, maybe he helps, but luck has entered into a very small part of this winter's baseball prosperity. For some fifteen years Goodwin has pioneered baseball in Los Angeles and this is his fourth baseball park. In all that time he has tried to give Los Angeles professional baseball. Baseball that gave the tans, players and owners a run for their investment and only this year has he succeeded. At times seemingly down and out of the game Goodwin with an undying faith has always come back for more punishment. He got punishment last year the first at the new grounds but this year he is well on his way to enjoy the fruits of his sacrifices, his hopes and his labors. The Pirrone Brothers too have the well-wishes of the baseball loving fans. As Lonnie's partners in the White Sox plant they have taken their full share of the hardships of baseball promotion with a smile. They are due the full share of reward that comes to the pioneer who battles on to "SUCCESS." ANDERSON, 3b. B. JACKSON, cf. C. HEWITT, lf. C. GREEN, rf., p. WASHINGTON, 1b. CARTER, ss. J. WYNDON, 2b.

Phone: 282 BABY GANS KNOCKS OUT BOTH OF HIS OPPONENTS IN FAST TIME A knockout in four rounds and one in one round is the record of Baby Joe Gans for the past week. It was at Fresno that Gans' opponent lasted almost four rounds and at Pasadena, Alex Trabitas was finished before the main event had gone three minutes. It was the first time that either of Gans' victims had ever had the fatal ten counted over them. Gans is returning to Fresno this week to box a main event against Teddy O'Hara. Because of his sensational victory last week it is expected a sold-out house will greet the coast champion. If a suitable opponent can be found Gans will be seen in a Los Angeles ring soon, most likely the Olympic at 18th and Grand. ROYAL GIANTS WILL FACE A GREAT TEAM OF MAJOR LEAGUERS SATURDAY AND SUN. Casey Stengel, Dick Cox, Chicken Hawks, Babe Herman and Ernie Johnson and Company are returning to this Sox Park, Saturday and Sunday to repeat their act. They are promising to repeat their act of last some two Sundays back, the same being handing the Giants a defeat before a large Sunday crowd. Of course Pirrone the manager says the Saturday beating will be handed the Giants as a matter of course. Many of those who saw Ludolph defeat Rogan by one run on that memorable Sunday when the two teams played the best game of the season, not do believe that the "season" does not worry about Lennie Goodwin, it not worrying about Rogan and Ludolph on Sunday, it is the Saturday situation that has him sitting up nights. Anyhow he has a plan all worked out that he believes will get the Royals over the top for the two games and he is going to spring this fly stuff next Saturday afternoon. A large crowd is expected out Saturday to see if Lonnie can break the Saturday jinx. Crowned the Sox field are now being called at 2:16. Vacation Bad For L. A. Giants Who Lose To Mayood Eyidently the month layoff didn't do Manager Curry's Giants any good. Returning to harness at Maywood last Sunday they started the winter season with a loss. Maywood trimming the Giants 7 to 6. Two new players have been added to the Giants and they will travel to WESTERN FEDERATION OF TENNIS CLUBS ANNOUNCE DISPENSATION January 1 to March 15; Adults $1 Juniors, 50c By: WILLIAM MELLS WATSON The president of the Federation this week announced that beginning January 1 and until March 15, all clubs will be permitted to accept new membership applications at one dollar per customer, and as an added in- duction to young bloods of which we are so much in need of at present, boys and girls under twenty-one seas- ons go under the wire at half a rock each. It is pointed out that during last summer's dollar drive, eleven new members were initiated into one club, and with the new half dollar rate for youngsters, at least ten boys and girls, and an equal number of old heads should be added to each club during the hundred and five day dis- pensation period. If each member will hustle, it can be easily done. NEW LADIES' CLUB URGED The president also earnestly urges the organization of a new ladies' tennis club on the Eastside of the city. The Westside Tennis Club, the Westside Ladies' Tennis Club and the Racqueteers Tennis Club all have the southwestern part of the city pretty well covered, but the rest of the local territory is quite barren of tennis activity. A Wilshire Tennis Club might very appropriately cover the Pico Heights East Hollywood and Temple Street districts with wonderful success. A Lincoln Heights, North East or Boyle Heights Tennis Club would be a jewel for that district. The Eastside has the Alpha Tennis Club a men's club, and the Racket Wielders Tennis Club, a club of fine young boys and girls guided by President Verna Alvis Stratten, a pretty Jefferson High School graduate, and one of the best players in the city. But the Eastside needs a strong ladies club, and should not be neglected longer. A Furlong Tract or Southeast Tennis Club would plug up the hole in that vicinity. A Watts Tennis Club would cover Central Avenue Gardens and so on, and it is a platy some organizers don't get busy in that section where tennis courts could be had easily, a fine club house and what not. Think it over, folks. ALPHA'S NEW OFFICERS At its meeting last Thursday night the following members of Alpha were elected as officers: Dr. Richard Billinthus Whittaker, Pres.; Ballinger Pressley Kemp, Vice-Pres.; William Mells Watson, Secy.; Munger of Publicity; Otis Lawrence Banks; Philip LeBron Davis, Tennis instructor; Elroy Duncan Lott, Paul Revere Williams, Ballinger Kemp, Entertainment Committee. Tournament Park, Pasadena, next Sunday, and attempt to tip over the Pasadena Paints, a club that has been smearing over club in the Pasadena section of the country.
