Phone: VANDIKE 9244 Volume No. 39 Bishop Wm. T. Vernon Moves to Detroit Bishop Wm. T. Vernon Moves to Detroit Quindaro, Kans., Dec. 10, 1925.—Bishop William T. Vernon, now presiding over the Bermuda, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Michigan, Illinois and Indiana Conferences of the A. M. E. Church, is to locate in Detroit, Mich He fees that in being centrally located he can give closer and better supervision to the work of his district. Bishop Vernon has claimed Kansas as his residence for thirty years, having served here as president of Western University, Kansas City, Kansas, from which position he was appointed register of the United States Treasury. After leaving Washington he filed several positions in the State University's election to the Bishopric he returned to his home here. He maintained this as his legal residence whil servin gas Bishop in South Africa. He and his family hope to be settled in Detroit by the 15th of December. Roman Catholic Church Using Klan Tactics Shakes Judge Isa-dore Blair's Faith Be it known that Judge Isadore Blair, pioneer bakerer of our group in this city and a noted practicing attorney at the bar, has been a communicant at Saint Vibriana Cathedral for 22 years, during which period he has always been a pew holder paying for the same in advance and at this time holds a receipt marked paid for until July 1926. Not only one pew but paid for three, so there would never be a question about seating arrangements for himself. This Cathedral is located on South Main Street, near Second Street. Now of course in consequence of some queer and unexplainable acts, the judge is sorrowful and does not enthuse over his once proud religious faith, the Roman Catholic Church. To be exact some weeks ago the judge as is his custom went to Sunday service, and met the unusual; his paw was occupied. He looked and his name had been removed from the pew. He sought the head usher, got no satisfaction, finally appealed to the Priest and was told that the children in playing had probably taken it off. This being plausible the judge bided his time during which the name could be replaced. Then as usual he went again but alas his cup runneth over, for the pew was occupied and the name of Isadore Blair was conspicuous by its absence. And truly the judge was in sorrow and so would anybody else in a like situation. He had been born and reared in the church, could tract his ancestry for nigh unto 200 years in this denomination, had been a proud booster of the wonderful stand which this great church was wont to take for his group and alas the day had been made the King Klan, the understrappers had resorted to the same chicanery to humiliate and cause him to weaken for a moment in his faith. Truly this was the unkindest cut of all. BUSINESS LEAGUE MEETING A special meeting of the Los Angeles Negro Business League will be held at the offices of the Golden State Insurance Company, 3512 Central Avenue, Tuesday Night, December 22nd, to plan for the opening program for the New Year.

The first stop for the Browning party was London, where they will fill several engagements, after which they will continue their European tour. The many friends of Mr. and Mrs. Browning in this city and state are delighted to know that they will tour Europe, and are sure that the Silver toned tenor will meet with every success. Record Memorial Service, I. B. P. O. E. W. Last Sunday Golden West Lodge No. 86, Elks of the World, presented a most commendable and appropriate program in memory to its departed members on last Sunday. Promptly at 2 P.

Howard and Herrford. The address on behalf of the Hiawatha Temple No. 91, Daughter Elks was delivered by Daughter Ruler Bertha Triplett. It was a great day for the Elks and conceded to be one of the best memorial days ever held. All Los Angeles Invited To Opening Of New 2nd Baptst Church The city of Los Angeles is cordially invited to attend the formal opening and dedicatory program and services of the Second Baptist Church, E. 24th, and Griffith Ave., Jan. 8-17, 1926. This modern edifice recently started and now nearing completion, stands out pre-eminently in the annals of Negro achievement in this City, State and Country. You are welcome to its many departments and elaborate facilities. Much credit for the wonderful spiritual and building program of this Church must be given the pastor, Dr. T. Griffith, who has worked earnestly diligently and unselfishly, to make this church fit into the life of our people, in Los Angeles. Staunch co-operation from the entire membership has made it possible for this gigantic proposition to be put over. Don't fail to attend all or as many of these services as possible. Dr. A. Clayton Powell, pastor of the Abyssian Baptist Church of New York City together with many local ministers will appear during the two weeks program. Music will be ministered by the Western Baptist Church, and the Western Baptist Church, Chevera. A PAPER WITH A HEART AND SOUL LOS ANGELES, CALIF. DECEMBER 18, 1925 ALL "HET UP" OVER REMOVAL OF CAPTAIN MCCLARY FROM THE NEWTON STREET STATION As told to us it is a long story with many ramifications and that is, the propositions which brought to pass the removal of Captain L. L. McClary from command at the Newton Street Branch Station of the Police Department, who has served here since the establishment of the same. To the colored citizens any movement made in this section is far reaching indeed as this is right in the heart of the black belt, they are of course, the most affected. It is claimed that Captain McClary is one of the few high officials who has been willing to do things which would tend toward the just recognition of the people of all groups and give to the colored officers of his command a genuine square deal. The dissatisfaction has reached such proportions that the citizens generally have called a mass meeting at the Ninth St. Branch of the Y. M. C. A. on Tuesday evening to take up and discuss the situation and to endeavor to bring about a more harmonious understanding for all parties concerned, Dr. H. Claude Hudson, president of the N. A. A. C. P. will preside at this meeting. In connection with the above and the redeeming feature of Captain McClarey's conduct of the Newton Street Station has been his attitude of fairness in all the various angles of his position to all peoples. That is to say, he has policed the district, all law breakers look alike to him. He did not single out any particular group to put the iron heel upon. M. Captain McClary The chief trouble has been the custom, of the Central Station to make spectacular raids in the Newton Street District, in which they were wont to sweep through the district with high power men and herd up petty law breakers to the fullest capacity of the city jail; at the same time having their own districts, where everything, men and women are big enough to do, going on without restraint. They have actually exploited petty law breakers, to keep up a record and allowed vice to go on unhampered in the sections where the purity squads should gather their harvest. This is unjust and we hope the meeting on Tuesday night will take this situation in hand and demand that simply because one section happens to be one group is no reason for the attention of two or three vice squads while other groups go free. In other words we stand for law and order pure and simple. We take no middle ground, but we insist that it must apply to all alike. Why let the denizens, occupants of the Alexander, and other high places have any more exemption from abiding by the law than most humble inhabitants of the house in the sticks in no man's land? If anybody is to be favored it surely should be the latter. However Tuesday night will be wash day and we will all be on hand to get in on the same. The following named persons are among those who have joined in the call for next Tuesday night's mass meeting. Dr. H. C. Hudson, Albert Bauman, Banks Brothers, East Side Realty Company/C. Olivier, Blodgett Realty Co., Loggins & Cooper, Realtors, Father W. T. Cleghorn, Dr. B. L. Boswell; Dr. Harris, and many others all of whom live in the district affected. Many prominent speakers will speak on the issue. (By The Associated Negro Press) Atlantic City, Dec. 17.—Gilbert "Kid" Brooks, prizefighter, is being held here under $5,000 bail as a re-who succumbed after he had been suit of the death of Joseph Holmes, struck in the chest by Brooks during a boxing encounter at the North Side Sporting Club. The managers of the boxers are also being held. The charge is manslaughter. "Billy" Sunday Has New Daughter (By The Associated Negro Press) New Orleans, La., Dec. 17.—Black Billy Sunday, the well-known evangelist, is the father of a baby girl weighing nine pounds which arrived last week. The evangelist was holding services at Jackson, Miss., when a wire brought him to the city, closin- German Fights Invasion Of Jazz (By The Associated Negro Press) New York, Dec. 17.—Because he would rather see (German boys and girls waltzing to the tunes of John Strauss, because jazz is a product of Negro Talent, and because Germans would resent the use of anything coming from Negroes on account of their resentment over the employment of colored troops on the Rhine after the war, Siegfried Wagneri dramatic producer and son of Richard Wagner, the great producer, has published a fiery tirade against the jazz music which has entered the fatherland and which young Germans are rapidly pickup. Head Out Car Window; Killed New Orleans, Dec. 17.—Nees Clark is dead as the result of riding on a street car with his head protruding from a window.

According to the last will and testament of the Late Magistrate Amos M Scott, his estate, consisting chiefly of real estate which is valued at $45, 800 is left to his three daughters, Clara, Thela, and Myrtle Scott. Sues Sugar Co. For Thirteen Thousand (By The Associated Negro Press) New Orleans, La., Dec. 17—Frank Graham has sued the Hendersan Sugar Refining company for thirteen thousand dollars damages, claiming injuries when a truck owned by the company knocked him from a bicycle and permanently injured him. Indict Two Women, One Man For Murder (By The Associated Negro Press) New Orleans, La., Dec. 15, 1925—Hattie Johnson, charged with the murder of Charles Davis; Evelyn Smith, charged with the murder of Willie Johnson; and Albert Bartie, who it is said, murdered Elizabeth Lee, have been indicted by the grand jury the first degree murder and will be taken at this term of court. (By The Associated Negro Press) Philadelphia, Pa., Dec. 17. — The 70, 000 spectators at the Cornell-Pennsylvania game here Thanksgiving afternoon at the great University Stadium, who were thrilled by the antics of an aeroplane high in the air looping the 'loop, nose diving, spiraling, and other stunts don't realize it is a race man dong the stunts. The aviator was none other than Lieutenant Hubert Julian of the Royal Canadian Air Force, who made an unsuccessful start to fly around the world several months ago. After performing for ten minutes, he released thousands of pieces of green paper very much like Uncle Sam's greenbacks. As the supposed greenbacks came fluttering downward there was a general rush to get them, but instead of receiving money, the recipients found that it was a clever advertising stunt of the Edwin B. Jackson, Inc., of 1629 Arch Street, Overland, and Willys-Knight cars, containing a message that it was "Like Picking Money Out of the Air to Seize This Opportunity to Purchase an Overland or Willys-Knight Car". It was disclosed on Saturday. Ability Displayed In Belshazzar Ability Displayed In Belshazzar BEAUTY AND SPLENDOR SEEN IN BIBLICAL PLAY Those who failed to see that much talked of cantata, "Belshazzar," are full of regret. Arrayed in costumes of ancient Babylon, the cast, consisting of some of the most brilliant artists of the city, showed that they had been well trained. Belshazzar, the king, was played by the well known Mr. Lassiter, who needs to introduction as to his ability in doing big things. In the portrayal of this character, he was a success, Mr. L. Carpenter, the young rising tenor, as Zerubabel, please all with the execution of his part, Mrs. M. Boston as Queen Regent and Mrs. L. Longress as Queen Consort, filled their parts well. Little Vera Brown, already popular for her sweet and beautiful singing, captured the audience in her usual way. The entire cast displayed much talent and delighted the audience with their splendid acting. Those present enjoyed every bit of this cantata from the rising of the curtain of the first act to the grand finale and all agree that too much credit cannot be given to Mrs. L. B. Brown as directress of the cantata, her assistant, Mr. Lassiter, and Mrs. V. H. Brandon, the pianist for the affair. Kidnap White Girls (By The Associated Negro Press) Tampa, Fla., Dec. 14, 1925.—Ar eighteen-year-old white girl picked up unconscious in the doorway of a warehouse off the Atlantic Coastline rattles told polic officers that she and a companion, 26, had been kidnapped by a colored man and woman and carried to a house in the colored section of the city. She explained that she escaped when the woman abductor left the room in the house where the girls had been taken. The girl who gained her freedom is Anna McGlohn, the other Pearl Keel. Gov. Pinchot Appoints Edward W. Henry (By The Associated Negro Press) Philadelphia, Pa., Dec. 15, 1925.—Gov. Pinchot appointed Edward W. Henry as magistrate to preside over Magistrate Court No. 2, Wednesday. This is the court presided over by the late Amos M. Scott, who had the distinction of being the first colored magistrate. Mr. Henry's appointment is looked upon with by large numbers and The Record (Philadelphia's second largest paper) commenting editorially upon his candidacy, referred to Mr. Henry as being eminently fitted for the position. Mr. Henry is well-known throughout the State, and was for five years president of the famous Citizen's Republican Club, resigning just a few months ago. He is active in fraternal and educational circles and has a 1879-1925 COMM.ENTS By: W. J. WHEATON Judge Patrick Parker is sitting in department 10, criminal court, presided over by Superior Judge Ward. In his office, no particular interest, but a course, sought to inject racial feeling, brought out the sterling quality which has endeared the Mono County jury to every one who has occasion to come before him. IMPARTIAL FAIRNESS. The case in question is one in which two Chinese broke down the door of a Negro ward, according to the testimony given, by the wife of the murdered man who witnessed the loot, one of the Chinese heid him while the other shot him to death. The one which did the shooting escaped, and has not yet been apprehended; the other was taken into custody and held as an accomplice. Counsel for the defendant argued for his mensal on insufficient evidence, used in the course of an investment used in which could very well be entitled epithets. In giving his decision Judge Patrick said, "In my mind the life of an humble soldier man is of the same value and should have the same protection as that of any other man. The fact that this defendant was present at the time that the deed was committed is in the mind of the court, sufficient to hold him for trial. Judge Parker is a San Francisco, product being born 'South of the slot.'" Two little boys, both aged 9 years, engaged in a child's fight. One a Negro, the other white. In the fight the little white boy was bested and no doubt, it would all have ended there if the father of the white boy, "A gent.eman of Virginia suh," had not interfered and kicked the little Negro boy, seriously injuring him. The "Kicker" was brought abruptly to the knowledge that he was not in Virginia, and that California has no racial discriminatory laws when Superior Court Judge, Shorthall awarded the little Negro boy two ($2000) Thousand dollars damages. At the First Presbyterian Church, white, San Francisco, the chair of the Third Baptist Church, colored, rendered a program for the benefit of Missionary Society of the former. The program was mostly made up of selections from Negro composers and authors. Both spirituals and classical numbers were rendered. Mrs. E. W. Moore saw cooleridge Taylor's, "On away, Awake Beloved." Mrs. Jeter Davis read "Conscience" from Victor Hugo and aside from the spirituals the choir rendered two masterpieces one of Verdi the other a Handel. We paid strict attention to the attitude of the big audience and especially so when the spirituals were rendered, "Weepin' Mary," "By and Bv," "Swing Low," and a number of others were sung. They were sung with such a dignity and with such felting that we saw tears standing in the eyes of many and some wept unashamed. The singing of this chorus which has sung in a number of San Francisco churches and before thousands of people, has done, and is doing wonderful work in bringing about a bette runderstanding between racial groups in San Francisco. 00— Since winning her case, Alice Jones-Rhinalender, has, in the attitude of the press, evolved. From a "Dusky Bride" and a "Negress" she has become a "partly colored woman." President Coolidge has sent in his recommendations to the joint legislative bodies of the United States. The farmer, tax-payer, foreign and domestic problems of the nation were all brought forth for legislative consideration. Of course, the omnipresent Negro problem (?) was mentioned and the thread-worn plattitudes of tolerance and the accompanying political beautitudes of "We should" embellished the paragraphs devoted that section of the message. We have no reason to doubt the sincerity of the President, and we will wait with the patience of a Job, for a little while longer, probably until the Ideas the patience of a Job, for a little while longer, probably until the Ideas of August—for some concrete example of his preachment. There are a great many mills which can be regulated by executive authority. Hills which concern the masses. We are not giving a fig about his appointments. What we want to see is legislation which affects our status as citizens enacted. What we want is that the President get behind, the anti-Lynching Bill and other legislation which will ameliorate theills which beset the Race.

PASADENA PASADENA A DONATION It is quite an inspiration to the parent as well as the visitor to look in on the added equipment of the Primary Department, donated through the courtesy of Mrs. Sarah Williams of South Pasadena avenue. The articles consist of cribs, dolls, desk, couch, pillows and pictures, all of which serve the purpose to instil into the minds of the children a desire to attend Sunday School.

TIME OF LIFE One more round of changing seasons, Joys and sorrows, hopes and fears, Vanishing like sunset's splendor Into the mysteries of years. Like the welcome summer showers Bringing gladness, night or day, So our memories—like dreaming— One by one will come and stay. Years, in silence passing by us, Oh, for but a voice to tell Why like rainbows time is flying Hope, with great anticipation For the good each year may hold, While the sands of time are falling, Helps to keep from growing old. Fast or slow—the years are passing Like rivers flowing to the sea. While they pass, they are leaving Memories that make our history. May each moment of every minute Add to make our lives divine. While at work or play, let duty Try to make each day sublime. Resolve, to let this be a motto For each week, each month and year. And in wisdom use our knowledge. For good on Earth, while we are here. DR. DAVID GUSTASON, Los Angeles. Figures are never identical ```markdown ``` Millions of human beings, yet no two fingerprints or figures are 'ever alike!

DOON COMPANY HUmbolt 3230 PAE-ELEVEN PAGE-TWELVE GOLDEN STAT AU UPTON'S RAILROAD CLATTER By Chas. L. Upton PORTER I. FRANKLIN HURT IN ENGINE CRASH A switch engine crashed into a standing train in the O. W. R. & N. depot, Portland, Oregon, injuring porter I. Franklin of this district, fifteen passengers and killing instantly an air tester, it is thought the engine was turned loose by some brudging railroad employees, Franklin was sent home on a pass. You can never tell when you are going to be hurt or sick, join the P. P. B. A. now. If you are one of those who doubt the P. P. B. A. of A. will not pay ask Porter C. Smith No. 2, in 1924 on account of sickness Mr. Smith drew $114.25 in 1925 up to date, he has been given $109.94. Do you think it pays? Mr. Taylor, Ass't. Supt. apparently is anchored in his office at the S. P. yards; but do not be surprised if you meet him in Santa Barbara, or Guadalupe. R. Hicks is planning a trip to Redlands—We wonder why? A decision has been handed down by the General Zone Committee, whereby men who have been operating on partly in charge runs, since 1924 will receive back time for full in charge pay for that period. It has been rumored that Mr. V. V. Ross, night platform agent, will take the day job, Mr. Thatcher of the Santa Fe the night job and Mr. Wills, Ass't. cashier to Mr. West will also land a platform job, this is baker heat dope, but keep your eyes open. Who will take, Mr. C. Lincoln's Who will take Mr. C. Lincoln's place when he retires? Where will win go? It is an established fact that the Los Angeles District as far as officials concerned is the quickest district for promotion of any District in the country, an office boy today is more than likely to be your Supt. tomorrow, whether promotion is awarded on merits, seniority or brain is left for you to read between the lines. Mr. Wain who was recently appointed to chief car clerk seems to be well qualified for that position as we have not heard any complaints from that direction up to date. Mr. Turner who was promoted to Chief Clerk is apparently making a fizzel out of it from all indications, Mr. Shores is well qualified to hold his own. Mr. Lambert is sailing along on smooth ice, but what about Mr. Deibert? Too bad that the porters cannot come in for some of this quick promotion. In Cleveland they have a colored sign on the mural of a Coffin here? Some day maybe the Pullman Co. will let down their bars and give credit where credit is due instead of promoting so many office horses have faith. Porter F. L. Barnett has decided that since he cannot get any of the pie, there ain't goin' to be no pie, and now it is reported is trying to settle the case of Bob Fisher and L. Jenkins by making a test case of whether a man can still hold his runs and be off of it as long as these two porters have, if he is successful it will set a precedent in this district. It will remove J. Carter who has been running in Bob Fisher's place ever since he has been off and also Prescott who has been running in L. Jenkins's place, thus forcing the lineup for bid, whether this is fair or justice depends upon the rights of all concerned, one thing, it will bring out just what rights a porter has and that is saying a whole lot; the case will be watched with interest and the results published in the Railroad Clatter. At last the much talked of running around on the Padres will be thrashed out to the satisfaction of all concerned. Mr. Ross acting Supt. of Los Angeles, has decide do settle the issue by letting the man operating on that train note in favor of running around or maintaining their own cars, we can at least read between the lines and see where this is going to end as it is a known fact that the only Porkers who wish to run around are the boys who have charges of the observation cars, the results of this case will also be published in The Rail-read Clatton—Order your copy now. Have you figured out where you will be on Xmas? SOUTHERN PACIFIC D. I. Brown has been taken back to the General Hospital in San Francisco. J. R. Hicks was recently appointed to a Cafe Car, and is now running in charge between Los Angeles and Fresno. Since the extra dinner has been placed on the Sunset between Los Angeles and El Paso, the boys will have an opportunity to visit their old home-stead New Orleans, it seems as though volunteers are unlimited. The Auxiliary to the Benevolent Association is functioning fine; Mrs. P. D. Buck is still president and Mrs. Louis Albernathy, Secy. We cannot see why the S. P. Employees will not subscribe for the Eagle as it is the official organ of Los Angeles. J. R. Hicks, Chm. Sick Com. That St. Louis line is up for bid again, all right Joe Lee, your turn now. LEGAL POINTS AND POINTERS Questions Answered Q. A lady passenger with a Pullman ticket for a lower berth boarded the train at station X. She had two small children who were crying at the time she got on the train, they continued to cry until 4 A. M. Other passengers in the car complained to the Conductor that they could not sleep on that account. Could the lady be prosecuted for disturbing the peace? Or what redress would a passenger have in such a case? A. No. the crying of the children was not a disturbance of the peace. While it might have been annoying and aroused them from repose, yet the crying of children is an act that cannot ben cintrolled by human power. Such acts are classed as acts of God, or a natural force operating without human agency. Therefore, the passengers who were disturbed from their rest, although damaged in a slight degree, cannot recover from the lady nor the Company as this is injury without damage, and for which there is no legal remedy. Q. I am aware of th effect that there is a law against carrying concealed weapons. But is there a law against carrying a gun in your hand in plain view of the public? A. No. When a gun is in plain view of the public it is not concealed. You will note that the law is against carrying "concealed weapons." Concealed means "to hide" or to "secrete." Therefore, when a thing is in plain view it is not secreted. Q. I am under the impression that the law means just what it says, and that no one is excepted. For that reason I ask can an officer or body of officers of the law be prosecuted for driving on the wrong side of a street car; wrong side of a button, or for violating any other traffic ordinance which is strictly enforced against a citizen? A. You are quite right, the law does mean just what it says. But the officers are maintained for protection of public safety, and public health, etc., and for these reasons among others, in the event an emergency, or any condition calling for immediate action, warrants hurrying to an accident, a riot, or a fire and the like, officers of the class you mentioned may exceed the speed limit, cut buttons, as well as go on the wrong side of care without liability. This may be done when going to the scene of the act creating the emergency, but there is no necessity for such while returning. A. P. ALBERGA A VISITOR TO LOS ANGELES A. P. Alberga, better known as The Captain by Republican leaders has been in our city for the past week on a pleasure trip as given to a reporter of the California Eagle, but there are some who see in this trip of the Captain who is the closest to the State Administration forces of our group in the state, an effort to give personal impetus to the closing fight for the appointment of E. Burton Ceruti, Esq., to the Municipal Judgeship in Los Angeles. The Captain has been entertaining some friends and there is hope of a get-together meeting with friends and political leaders of the city before he leaves of the importance of our getting the largest registration out in the history of the City. There are few who understand the ropes as the Captain and we shall s await the result with pleasure.

EAGLE] Chicago, Ill., Dec. 18.—Just lating themselves upon the fact to good year; that conditions as the while not the best, could have bee land Banker who not only decide tempting to throw consternation Chicago, Ill., Dec. 18.—Just when every one was congratulating themselves upon the fact that 1925 had been a fairly good year; that conditions as they effect the auto industry, while not the best, could have been worse, comes along a Cleveland Banker who not only decides to rock the boat but by attempting to throw consternation into the heart of the business but actually received the old axiom, "Who struck John." The banker whose name is withheld for his personal safety heaved a good size brick but fortunately he reckoned without his host for it missed its mark by a wide margin. Studebaker, Nash, Dodge Brothers and dozens of others, even down to Henry Ford have taken exception to such statement and have denied at every turn its authenticity. Inventory of present stock on hand of several of the larger companies substantiate the fact that no such animal as "Over Production" exists, in fact no few concerns are playing catch-up in orders. BIG EXPANSION Over $100,000,000 is being spent in expansion by big concerns. Henry Ford alone is spending over $35,000,000, Dodge Brothers $8,000,000, Hudson motor $10,000,000. So it seems as if on the face of facts produce that the Cleveland Banker has been slightly misinformed. 1925 has held its own and 1926 has a prosperous outlook substantiated in a large measure by 1924 production and consumption. E. A. HAWKINS TO E. A. Hawkins who has for the past four years operated an auto repair shop is to move bag and baggage into the new Super Service Station at 9th and Central. Mr. Hawkins needs no introduction being well acquainted through his business connection. He is an expert in his line and thoroughly acquainted with all makes. His new location will permit him to better take care of his many customers. UNIT NO. 2 NEW SUP STATION TO O The new Super Service Service Station being erected at 9th and Central Avenue by E. L. Dorsey is rapidly near completion. For several weeks past building operations have been going on. Everything is being done to have things in order for a holiday opening so those desiring Xmas Service will not be disappointed. As soon as Unit No. 2 which is to house the tire, accessories, battery, radio and mechanical departments is completed, Unit No. 3 consisting of an oiling, greasing, washing and polishing department will be commenced. Unit No. 1, now operating, consists of Julian Service Station, handling Julian products. Keep Pink Certificate is Warning SEND WHITE REGISTRATION SLIP WITH CHECK FOR LICENSE ONLY Do not send your pink certificate of ownership to the Division of Motor Vehicles at Sacramento when applying for your license plates for 1926. Information from Sacramento today is that this will not be necessary as the law has been changed. To secure new plates take your white certificate of registration from your car and mail it with a check, money order or bank draft for the amount of your fee to Sacramento. The plates will be mailed to you about January 1. Be sure that your name and present address is on the certificate. Keep your pink certificate in a safe place. It is your title to your car, the state requires it only in case of a seizure. However, the source of success of driving motors is not all together a cause.

In addition to this stated fact we at all times aim to sell with each deal, whether it be a new or used car, satisfaction, as a result no concern is in a better position to take care of the prospective purchasers than we. This also is another reason why hundreds we have sold either Hudson or Essex and in no few instances both boost along with each purchase the name Central Motors.

Totals of motor fatalities for the first ten months of this year indicate a 5 per cent increase over the same period last year, but some communities, fortunately, have more improvements, and others now exceeded the total of 1924. Twenty-two cities have more than 100,000 population in better record this year, and two can do so there is at assurance that an era of progress in the section is at hand. SIX FORCES FACTORS "Six active forces during the past year have assisted in bringing actual improvement in certain quarters. These are as follows: (1.) Newspaper—The activity of the press in collecting facts in the causes of accidents and around communities to the importance of this matter has been a basic fact making possible the success of the other elements contributing progress. (2.) Safety councils and occupicvic bodies, including the work of the schools have helped to keep public opinion alive. (3.) Police departments have contracted a constructive attitude to the problem working for impairment and efficient control. (4.) State Highway and Vehicle departments have planted highways and have done more strictly with traffic offenders. (5.) The national conference on street and highway safety, as Secretary Hoover, has unified efforts of all parties concerned in this cause. (6) Scientific studies by national authorities are being instituted by municipalities will have a clear tabe of the exact layout of the counties, the extent and type of traffic, and their facilities related with it. OCTOBER FATALITIES Motor fatality figures for the of October totaled 562 in c more than 100,000 population increase of 106 fatalities on twember. This upward trend in cities, which occurs every year, the tooth month, does not mitigation with complete account represents to some degree the contraction of vehicular traffic large cities due to the added risk of care which are brought to country vacation use. While some of the increase has thought to be due to the opening the schools, this apparently is a very important factor since the portion of chile accidents did not cease during the month. The occasion of derailing on the close of business leaves in need to be an important about the situation. Phone: HU abch 6038 SPELLMAN'S TAXI 7-Passenger Road TOUMLING CALL Out-of-town.

Ceruti For Municipal Court Judge Of L. A. The public of Los Angeles is looking with intense interest to the matter of appointment to the Municipal Court, which, it is said, will begin to function about February 1, 1926. It was supposed when the Court was created that, all Los Angeles Township Judges o fthe Peace became, for that reason, Judges of the new Municipal Court. It now appears that this is not to be unless the Governor appoints these Justices to the new Court. Police Judge Shelton is ineligible beecause his experience as a lawyer is not of five years' duration, and this is true of Justice Marchette. E. Burton Ceruti, whose likeness appears above, has had nearly fourteen years' experience, and at that successful experience at the California bar When, in January of 1912 Attorney Ceruti began practice of the law in California, he at once directed his attention to the criminal side, or branch of law. A judge who must pass sentence upon accusd and convicted persons, a judge who; acting without a jury, must decide whether the defendant is "guilty" or "not guilty", of necessity ought to know criminal law and know it thoroughly!

Attorney Ceruti having been defense Counsel in a number of cases, in which the defendants were charged with homocide knows the criminal code from the theory of arrest, through preliminary, trial, appeal and decision of our Supreme Court. It follows the rights of defendants are known to him and will be safe guarded. THIS WEEK Lot on Ramsaur Ave., 50 x 153—$150.00 down, $15.00 per month. Price $800.00. $425.00 Cash, for lot and 2 room house. A Snap. But of course this is only one side of a judg's duties: the interest of the public must be conserved, the laws must be enforced without fear or favor and justice handed down, even handed, but always in a proper case tempered with mercy. $5500 for 1 five-room modern house, and 1 three room furnished house, lot 50x186, facing on two streets. 3-room house rents for $30.00 and has a lawn, would make a nice, home for someone and will pay for itself. Price $1500.00 Attorney Ceruti is happily married and owns his home: his life in this community has been given as much to the public welfare and good as to his profession. In matters that concerned our city and county government, our city and county institutions, he has taken an active part and has contended for an equitable application of the law alike to all citizens, nd for a fair deal to all applicants for place or position. The public interest will be adequately safeguarded by him as one of our municipal judges. $250.00 down and $20 month buys 3-room and porch house, lot 50x154. Price $1500.00, on paved street, a good buy for somebody. Of late years Attorney Ceruti has given his attention to civil law, to organization, to corporations. This was of twofold advantage: it rounded out his legl experience, and supplied the executive ability necessary to a dignified presiding officer or judge. Under Attorney Ceruti the Elks Lodge came from chaos to the ownership of a business lot on Central Avenue with present rospect of a large Elks' Home or Rest. The Knights of Pythia's have been thoroughly organized, and the Pacific Beach Club just below Huntington Beach on the South coast of the Pacific Ocean now rears the imposing heads of two magnificent uildings surrounded by a bathing and recreation site unxcelled on this part of the ocean front. $2000.00 cash and $50 month buys 7-room house and garage, both made of cement bricks, cor. lot on Compton Ave., 130x130 to an alley. A snap at price, with a dandy future. $500 Buys 8-Room House, lot 218x107, corner on Compton Ave. Balance like rent; good for a chicken ranch with a business frontage. Good buys in Houses and lots with small payments down. In all of this effort, a love of hard work and of problems hard of solution: a strict devotion to duty and a calm, but tireless approach to law matters and public questions: an intense interest in home and basic institutions have shaped his heart and his mind for the larger work of a judgeship. J. MARCOLESCO There are 50,000 of this group in Los Angeles. Attorney Ceruti is one of the best qualified lawyers of all the groups for a judgship. Will Governor Richardson fail to appoint him because by racial identity he is affiliated with the group of 50,000, or will merit be recognized and proper and fitting qualifications, be rewarded? We believe in the sincerity of our Governor and in his expressed desire to be the Governor of all the people! We know that all citizens of whatever race or creed will get an equal break in Judge Ceruti's Court, once he is appointed to that Court: We know the rights of established property, and of order will be conserved, and we know that justice will be done, not alone to him or his group, but to the legal profession and to the people of Los Angeles by his appointment as one of the Municipal Court Judges of Los Angeles. 212 SO.

Oil Lease Sought At Eureka WHAT ARE WE COMING TO? The economic condition of Los Angeles today, in so far as our group is concerned, is one that required careful thinking, conscientious and honest action. Selfish motives should be thrown to the winds. Self aggrandisement should be delegated to the scrap basket of 1925, 1926 should find the leading Colored men and women of this city united in an effort to give to the hard working colored men and women a squarerear deal in the future than they have had in the past. There is no question whatever, but that the working class of our group, and the class referred to as the common class are the backbone of every endeavor put over by this race. In 1925, we have experienced the cruel hand of segregation and discrimination in a way, never felt before on the Pacific Coast. What does it all mean? How shall we attempt to solve our perplexing economic status? This writer stands one hundred per cent for the things that will promote a kind and sympathetic feeling between all races and nationalities, and a kind and co-operative spirit between members of our group in general. However, we feel that our duty is to warn the Colored people of Los Angeles against anything that tends to classify or segregate ourselves one from another except, high character and honest endeavor. Two years ago we felt that our group was entitled to a mountain resort and town-site. Several propositions were tried out and the villager spied up over night and died the night that must come from greed. Other places such as Lincoln Gardens, Castaic, and still another resort down near Redlands. Every one was proclaimed a God-sent to our people and yet neither one lived more than sixty days. We believe that honesty and real racial interest will always be res naturally turn to religious thoughts and acts have you ever always a chosen spot for any Christian demonstration Mountain., Beattitudes rich Christ delivered 6.

This can be done at a depth of from twenty to thirty feet, and is of course much more convenient to the people who make their homes at the Villa.

DONES, President, Eureka Villa Improvement Asso. New Purchases Made At Eureka Villa The sales of the Eureka Villa lots are keeping up to the regular winter standard regardless of the cry of hard times that always seems to be prevalent at every holiday time. Some of the sales have been of the largest that have been made during the season. Everyone seems to want to get their lot and start building to be ready for the summer season, which is expected to be the biggest and most enjoyable season experienced by any resorts in former years. Many new concessions are being planned for the convenience and enjoyment of the visitors and lot owners. The tennis court will be complete and most of the championship games will be played on it. The people will of course have the privilege of enjoying the free dancing in the open air pavilion just as they did last season. The many new buildings that have been put up and those that are being planned will make Eureka a progressive little mountain resort and town site. These small payments down on the lots and the small monthly payments enable every one to buy, regardless of their financial condition. There is a finance company being formed that will enable the lot owners to build at Eureka Villa at very reasonable monthly payments. $ ^{b} $ Passengers desiring to go to Eureka Villa, any day can make the trip for $1.50 round trip.

We get in return in our life's investment just what our minds, time and talents put into it, whether it is in the desires of self and the world or unto the glory of God. The sermon was timely as well as powerful, for we as Christians must know how to live our lives here to receive in return the blessings promised us by our Saviour, Jesus Christ. In the evening Mr. Irving N. Cudjoe of the U. S. S. Oklahoma gave a very interesting talk or his trip to the foreign lands. He is quite an unusual young man whom we admire.

CHRIST INSTITUTIONAL COMMUNITY CHURCH Adams and Central Avenue Rev. R. B. Hendricks, D. D., Pastor Sunday marked our eighth service since our organization as a church and our eleventh service as a Sunday School, known as the Community Bible School and we must say it was a source of spiritual inspiration to note the interest in both young and old. Our morning and evening services were both well attended and the Junior Echo Choir rendered services the whole day. One accession marked an increase in our number and also brought five younger ones with it for which we are justly proud. The two gospel messages were each filled with fire and the Holy Ghost and we all felt it was good to be out and witness the shower of God's blessing. Exercises and Tree will be Sun day afternoon at 2:30. Dec. 27th an excellent program has been arranged. SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH 710 So. Maple Ave. Rev. T. L. Griffith.

Miss Banks our historian favored us with paper, subject: What does the Sunday School mean to the Church, and who should be its Constituents. Followed by another excellent paper by Miss Griffith, our Chosier, subject: To what extent should the Officers, of the three highest themselves of the Sunday Church. Both held much food for thought. A beautiful solo rendered by Mr. Albright was also enjoyed by those present.

Lester Valley, 12 year old member of the Elkhorn Pioneer Club, has proven himself a young literary genius by writing the following poem: "SONNY" There was a boy named Sonny, He was both fat and funny; He went to church and Sunday School And learned the Golden Text and Rule, Good Boy Sonny. Sonny was a favorite at the Y. M. C. A. He boosts for the Pioneers everyday He is cheerful and helpful in every way Hooray for Sonny! Mr. S. B.

Reed I have no sis to chum with me But brother, I have had three; The one I choose to tell you of Today, is brother Clea. Now, he was born 'long in the fall When harvest was in bloom; The whole town had to shift around To give that rascal room. He grew up to be big and strong Full of the joy of life, He says he'll always live alone And never take a wife. Yet, he's admired by many a girl But treats them as a toy, Always in fun never sincere, So very like a boy. He travels 'round from beach to beach; If after that you delve; He is the kind of guy that makes One dozen out of twelve. His favrite hobby is to swim Along with all his 'gang', His favrite pastime whistlin', His treasured book, Whiz Bang. He loves to sing he loves to dance, Is ever filled with glee; His friends all call him, rightfully, "The real good natured Clea." And so he passes life away, No cares or mental pain; Could I but live like brother Clea I'd never weep again. A POOK OLD FISH I'm tired of life I want to go Where Angels tripple to and fro But death is such a woofe glide Down which we a.l must slide I guess I'll just with draw my wish And call myself a poor old fish.

Conscientious effort raises the most humble labor to the highest plane. The shirk is out of place in any sphigre and no matter whether his work is what the world styles humble or genteel, it is belittled by his indolence and want of attention. But the individual who makes each effort a complete one, who looks after the minutest detail with the same fidelity that a matter of the utmost importance would command, renders the most commonplace duty respectable and worthy. A certain merchant who had commenced life in humble circumstances and by labor and honesty had achieved a striking success, wasputting with a fellow tradesman. "You need to drive a delivery wagon for my father, for sweeping and chores about his store.""was his reply. "And more than that [I did it well]. he added. No honest labor should bring shame to the person who engages in it, save to him who seeks to shink the responsibilities of his calling. Work that is well done, always commands respect and proves that the workman is a person of character. The man who sees only the dollar and cents at the end of his labor is the one who usually leaves his work crude and unfinished.

Torrence desires to express their gratitude and appreciation to the many friends for the profusion of beautiful floral offerings, the kind and tender words of sympathy and love extended, and the loving acts of kindness shown in use of motor cars and otherwise during our recent bereavement in loss of our husband and brother.

LETTER OF THANKS We wish to thank and express our gratitude of appreciation to the many friends, for their deeds of kindness and sympathy during the illness and death of our Beloved Husband, Sir Frank Fain, also the loving floral memorial to our family. The pecuniary reward of toil is great and desirable incentive to industry, but there is something in addition to this to be desired, "To be a successful speaker," says a famous thinker, "a man must be of intense spirit and must put part of himself into his discourse." The same is also true of workmen in any other sphere of activity. To be even a successful common labor, let alone the professional trades of Carpenter.

P. of Los Angeles has made a magnificent effort to raise its quota for the Sweet Defense Fund. With just another pull, all together, we are satisfied that the required amount will be forthcoming. Therefore to those who have not contributed it will be an expression of your stand for justice to do so. Others who have and want to make success doubly sure will do well to make another subscription for the cause. Julius Rosenwald has subscribed $2,000, the only condition is that the N. A. A. C. P. shall raise $48,000, Los Angeles' quota is $1000 it should and will be raised in jig time. The local branch is to be congratulated upon its splendid work in this situation and as a matter of fact is now functioning as a real worthwhile organization; in other words, under the present regime the Association is keeping in touch with the people. THE PORTERS UNION "You can always trust the people," was the quaint remark of a great statesman, and we liken the same remark to the Pullman Porters who are now undergoing the test as to which way they will turn in the present agitation for unionizing themselves. What we would suggest is that the Porters themselves are capable of solving their own problem. We are satisfied that they will and should listen to all that anybody has to say, read what they have written and then go into executive session with themselves for the purpose of deciding their course of action. For after all the burden is upon them. They know more about themselves than anybody can tell them and whatever decision they may make the people of all classes will fall in line by giving to them a hearty support. FOR THE BENCH Aside from the newly created Municipal Judgeships of which is it predicted the Governor will appoint a member of our group, we want to point out Judge Ira Thompson as one of the very best selections we could make for the Court of Appeals. AGAINST THE PEOPLE Right after January 1st the people of this city will have forced upon them the meter service for telephones. This has been a victory for the telephone company. It is passing strange that in all propositions where an advance for public utilities is asked for the company wins. With all of our Commissions it seems as though they always find in favor of the companies and against the people. No wonder at times there is unrest and great dissatisfaction as to the trend of things. VOICE OF ANOTHER PUBLICATION The Voice of the Afro-American Council is the name of another publication launched since our last issue. The same is edited by E. T. Hubbard, and James M. Alexander is the business manager. The paper is political in nature and does not hesitate to so state. With the ripe, rich and varied experience of both Mr. Alexander and M. Hubbard there is little doubt that they will bring the Afro-American Council to the forefront as never before. The old saying, when you see nothing, say nothing, would apply to a multitude of flimsy efforts along many lines. The way of the transgressor is hard, so they say. ALONG THE LINES OF PRODUCTION We are in receipt of a copy of "Los Angeles County", a magazine put out by the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce and is the product of Howard S. Nichols. The publication, aside from its illumination upon the beauty and inspirational opportunities give facts and figures along the line of production. The story told is one of fascinating interest and encompasses the miraculous growth of the land of sunshine and flowers as it has never been presented before. As a basis for the thoughts as promoted from reading this magazine, we will give to our readers a few excerpts as follows: Los Angeles County men and women feel a constant pride and joy in developing their remarkable territory. Their notable happiness of spirit is, perhaps, due more to the satisfaction which comes from doing things, rather than from an enchanting environment or a tonic atmosphere. They are a happy people, whatever the seasons, and full of faith, courage and hospitality. They see to much to do, so much more than they and their descendants can ever do, that they are always glad to have newcomers join in the glad work of development. Crop production for 1924 included the following items: Oranges, 20,000,000 boxes worth $45,000,000; Lemons, 5,500,000 boxes worth $14,200,000; Lemons, 5,500,000 boxes, worth $14,200,000; Cotton, 110,000 bales; value $14,000,000; Walnuts, worth $8,500,000; Barley, worth $1,400,000; Lima Beans, 450,000 bags, worth $5,000,000; -Cantouples, worth $6,000,000; The sardine exports were more than half those of the United States. Oil produced in the Los Angeles basin reached a grand total of 155,000, barrels. Production will continue for many decades, oil experts state. Cement to the valu eof $13,000,000 was produced. Chemical products soared from the value of $19,714,360 to $23,000,000 in 1924. Cull lemons weighing 102,512,600 pounds were made into by-products during 1924 by 60 fruit associations, at one plant in Corona. Los Angeles County has been the leading county in America in agricultural production for the past five years. U. S. government figures show this conclusively. Modern scientific marketing methods prevail. The total acreage is 2,633,360 of which there the 882,333 acres of agricultural land and an actual producing area of 247,223 acres under irrigation. The irrigable area at present is estimated at 362,118 acres. Gigantic irrigation projects are under way involving many millions of dollars. The soil responds with celerity to cultivation. There are 4067 square miles within the boundaries of Los Angeles County. It is nearly half the size of Massachusetts or New Jersey, four-fifths as large as Connecticut and two thirds the size of Hawaii, and more than three times the area of Rhode Island. Most of the county is undenable beautiful. Now the thought is wht part is our group. playing in this mighty production. If we have not, we surely must line up and get in on this mighty march of progress. As per the table of figures above $45,000,000.00 of oranges were produced in 1924. How many of those boxes did the group produce, if not, why not? There were $14,200,000.00 worth of lemons produced and what was our quota and did we measure up on lemons? Also there were 110,000 bales of cotton produced, did we produce our part? Barley, lima beans, canteloupes, etc. This is an important proposition worth while to the utmost. surely we must be in on the great proposition of production. The Forum of Los Angeles at its last meeting really evinced a great interest in a proposition which was presented to the body which provided for production and we have not grown weary, neither faint at heart for in due time this people will take their proper place and these figures shall not go forth without having played their part in the things which make it possible for them to come forth. For truly we must play our part along the line of production. THE BROOKLYN PRESS Sidney Prestcn Dones Sidney P. Dones, President of Eureka Villa Improvement Association, will leave Los Angeles, December 21, 1925, for an extensive trip through the East and the South East in the interest of Eureka Villa. His stop over will take in New York, Chicago, Oklahoma City, Memphis, Tenn., and many other places en route. Mr. Dones has taken these trips three or four times during the past year and finds it is of great benefit to the benefit to the interest of Eureka Villa, as the out of town people are more than enthusiastic about it. Such splendid results were the outcome of his visit to Tulsa, Oklahoma, as a representative off the National Negro Business League, that Mr. Dones will continue to make these trips a part of his yearly program. aMny festivities are being planned in Chicago and Memphis in his honor. Comments are to be appointed by the Governor. There are approximately, forty thousand Negro voters in the State of California. Twenty thousand of these are in the city of Los Angeles. Governor Friend Richardson has been importured to appoint one of the Race and Attorney E. Burton Coruti is the unanimous choice of the Negro voters for that position. Attorney Coruti is fully equipped, legally and by temperament to all judgement. he is acknowledged as one of the foremost lawyers of the State, and an erudite logician. The appointed will be made by the first of January. WILL GOVERNOR RICHARDSON BE BIASED BY RACIAL PREJUDICE? (Continued from page 1) It is peculiar how some ignorant folks—ignorant, because they ought to know that it is impossible to keep a fellow down unless you stay down with him—spend their energy in trying to create racial problems. This "nack of the woods" is getting full of the people who come from somewhere—one thing sure—they are not San Franciscoans, where colorophobia is a chronic disease. The following letter printed in the Daily News of December 10, explains itself: Where Intolerance Is "Editor: There appears in The Daily New of Nov. 30 an article under the heading of "Civic Club News," entitled "Negro Problem Taken Up by Central Clubs." The sponsors of the movement are well known as propagandists who have sought for some months past to create a problem by the agitation of racial antipathy. The Negroes of San Francisco shall be recognized the world over as the ideal city. We recognize the might of private ownership, and if the owner of property does, desire sell or rent to any person for an individual reason, that is his or her business. Such an intolerant attitude as that which is sponsored by the Central Clubs will find no upstanding Negro of San Francisco in its meetings, because the Negro citizens of San Francisco have no problems to discuss. The problem lies in the intolerant minds of persons whose racial prejudice blinds them to every worthwhile endeavor."—W. J. Wheaton. Are juries always impartial and give their verdicts according to the evidence, or does the racial complex enter into their deliberations? We are prone to ask this question from witnessing the outcome of a recent case wherein a Chinese was on trial for complicity in the killing of a Negro. True, there was none to witness the killing except the wife of the slain man, who testified that the defendant held her husband while his brother, who made his escape, shot him. In spite of the fact that the defendant had stated to the police the corroborating of the wife's testimony, at the trial witnesses testified that he was not present. The cross-examination of the prosecuting attorney showed the falsity of the testimony, yet he was acquitted. The court room was crowded with Chinese. Outside of the widow of the murdered man, there were present, two Negroes. Perhaps the apathy shown had something to do with the verdict. To think that any sane body of men and women should invite self-respecting Negroes to meet with them to consult on Segregation! A Nordic (?) was rather startled the other day when he heard the elevator boy explaining to the janitor why the Negro was the important factor in the social life of the American people today. Why, said he, the Negro seems to be the trouble everywhere. He is the "fly in the ointment" of our political schemes. The dominating wing of the democratic party keeps to keep him down and the controlling wing of the Republican party feeds him with platitudes. He is the means of keeping apart two great religious systems. The Methodist-Church, South and the Methodist Church, North. He is determined to advance and improve his condition in the sandard of living and in the obtaining of a worth-while education. He is rapidly learning to overcome the distrust, which he formerly held toward other members of the Race, and pooling his interests. He is finding out that that distrust, was encouraged by designing whites for their own purposes. Well, by the time he got through enumerating where the Negro fitted in, we were convinced. Cannot tell about the Nordic, but one thing, we are proud to know that most any of our young men of today can GIVE A REASON WHY. A number of professional Drys met and acridly criticised the Administration for laxity in not enforcing the 18th amendment. They even recommended the dismissal of Secretary Mello nfrom the Cabinet. Well we can call to mind one or two other amendments that here is not only a laxity in enforcing, but an utter disregard for their presence as a part of the Constitution. The 13th, 14th, 15th amendments which guarantees the full rights of American citizenship to over twelve million citizens are ignored. If one-third of the money was expended, and one-eighth of the energy used in the enforcement of the 14th and 15th amendments as is spent and used in trying to enforce the eighteenth, twelve millions of Negroes would take on new life. It would be splendid thing if the present administration would lend a little encouragement to such legislation which would tend to enforce those most neglected, amendments. The courts have decided on the legality of the enactment of the State Legislature creating twenty-four municipal judges. Eight of those jurges FRIDAY. DECEMBER 18. 1925 If it could come to pass today that you and I and each one of our neighbors would draw up an Individual Declaration of Independence and then live up to it, the majority of human problems would be solved. What a wonderful world it would be, if each one of us could and would declare: I will use my best, independent judgment on the solution of all problems that may confront me. Whatever answer I may give, will be my own. Yes. We do not think independently; we do not act independently; we do not live independently. We are born, live and die with sheetir bands of fear, prejudice, and custom restricting our life. We are "dumb, driven cattle." Yet we know in our hearts that it is only the men and women who have pried apart these bands, and bravely stepped out of line and beaten a new path, who have put us ahead in the ascent from the slime. Why should sameness be considered beautiful, when as a mitter of fact it is a horror—only evidence of our mental imprisonment. We see the prisoners in lockstep and realize the futility of it—but our mental lock-step we will not see. We go on mouthing the same phrases, bowing before the same idols, following the same fads, voting for the same inanities, calling an adding machine a statesman. Merely coral polyps of human form in some purple sea of infinity. Building foundatoins for something we know not what. Perhaps prisons: perhaps palaces. The coral conforms in the strictest sense of the word. It never rises above the surface of its sea into the sunshine and light. It stays in line, while some of its brothers have broken through. Still, it unconsciously builds a foundation for something higher to live upon. So let us here and now make our individual Declaration of Independence. Let us rise above the mental grade of a South African Bantu. Let us think an independent thought; do an independent act; and live an independent instant in our span of life. Then, peradventure, in the ages to come a human soul will break through the mists into something finer. Christmas will begin too late if it wait until the day itself. For Christmas comes neither with the dawn of yule, nor passs with the candle and the feast. It is a season which precedes the Day and lingers on past Twelfth Night. The true instinct of the church decries Christmas from afar, as did Mary the Mother and the Wise Men of the East; the season of Advent is a preparatory ascent toward the holy time, an invitation to journey toward Christmas in quiet expectancy. The approach to Christmas through feverish shopping days, in fond hope that the calendar will infallibly bring the Christmas spirit, is of all futile things most futile; the bitter reaction finds expression in the wish that Christmas might be abolished. And that will probably come; the kind of Christmas we have been keeping, without the expectation, the hope and beauty, the glowing truth of Advent, will certainly be abolished; it will abolish itself, for it is no true Christmas. Christmas of all the year is the most natural of our festivals. It light a fire at the cold heart o fwinter; it brings the comfort and living promise of a Cradle when all the world seems dead. It is the Festival of The Child, the enthronement of common things—Bethlehem, the stable, flocks, plain folk, swaddling clothes. It is the Festival of All People, for the Advent was not a ceremonial occurrence within priestly walls—the event which gave us Christmas transpired in populous places, with old folk, and shepherds, and pilgrims, and tax officials all around. It matters naught to the fact whether folk accept the Christmas teaching; a fact is not dependent on acceptance; but when the world a moment stops to think, it knows beyond the whisper of a doubt that the greatest fact in human history was the arrival of a Person on this planet, whose coming split history in two, and since whose Advent the world has been a different place, and whose Birth is marked by Christmas. Where His name is enshrined the people have security, little children are reared in plenty, women are honored, public order is a religion. Where His name is little known, the light has not yet dawned. One need only take a globe and mark the countries where Christmas comes, to mark the countries where humanity approaches the status it was meant to attain. That is to say, Christmas marks, the coming into the world of a new force whose beneficence has never ceased; a force so human and compassionate that little children sing of it with joy, and yet a force so god-like that angels sounded its marching music to this world. The fires that burn on happy hearthstones are its altar fires, the cherishing of children's joy its alms, the loyalties of friendship its shining ritual, and its sacraments are Christmas cheer, Christmas charity, Christmas hope. The first of January, 1926, the great registration will open. Everybody that is eligible must register in order to vote at the coming election next August. There will be many registrar voters throughout the city who will call on you to register and will keep registration office at their residence where you may call and register. It is very important to every man and woman to exercise their right in being prepared to vote for the men and women who will seek your suffrage. This little information will give you an idea of the men who are in charge of these public offices of which you have daily access. FIRST EPISTLE TO AMERICANS The Creed: Let us seek the truth: CHRISTMAS, 1925 ATTENTION TO THE VOTERS SPRT PAGE TENNIS BASKETBALL FOOTBALL TRACK BOXING GOLF CALIFORNIA EAGLE COUNTRY CLUB ACTIVITIES ROYAL GIANTS TAKE BOTH GAMES FROM PIRONNE'S ALL STARS Regardless of how many major leaguers, Manager Joe Pirone of the All Stars injects into his lineup his Stars generally come off second best after a tussle with the Lonnie Goodwin's Royal Giants. This past week end the Royals took both games of the series and altho the scores were close and the games well played, the Giants demonstrated their superiority to fans assembled. Four runs were sufficient to bring in the bacon each game. The Saturday contest produced the first shut out of the season when Britt blanked the All Stars 4-1. Sunday Rogan walked in a runner in the first inning but kept the leaguers away from the home plate for the following eight innings, consequently the score was 4-1. The Sunday game developed into a pitcher's battle between Rogan and Haid with Haid having a one run margin. For six innings one hit a piece was the best either club could do in the battling line. Beginning the seventh Neihoff got the second hit of the day off Rogan but his teammates couldn't get him farther than second. NINTH INNING All-Stars—Rader out, Rogan to Huisspeth. McMullen fanned. Prione batting for Dell, fanned. Hits 0, Runs 0, Errors 0. SUNDAY'S GAME Pirone All Stars—AB R H O A E Allen's Hit and Carr's Homer No one was prepared for the big explosion that came off in the Giants' half of the seventh. Hair pitching to Allen the first batter up had two strikes on the second baseman when he singled sharply to right. The fans sensing a probable rally were on their feet when George Carr came to bat. Herman and McMullen walked out on the field and whispered something to Haid. The Yankees course was for Carr to sacrifice Allen to second. Haid pitched the ball low and over the plate and Carr caught it squirtily on the nose and over the screen it went for a genuine home run. Haid realized that one pitch cost him a baseball game and he went to pieces. Dell relieved him and stopped the rally after a total of four runs had been chased over the plate by the Royals. The game play by play follows: SUNDAY'S GAME—PLAY BY FIRST INNING All-Stars—Cox singled to right. Murray out, Rogan to Hudspeth. Hawks walked. Stengel forced Cox at third. Herman purposely walked.

Saturday the Giants got their breaks and won altho Britt earned a victory if ever a pitcher did. Four hits, two that came in the ninth were all that Britt allowed and he struck out eight. Pierey was also credited with eight strike outs and the hits that scored the runs in the fourth inning were all of the infield variety. In that stanza, Mackey, first up singled and was sacrificed to second by Rogan. Dixon singled infield and Mackey were base for Neshoff and base for the All Stars topped the ball to the fence and Mackey scored. Pullen then bounced the ball off Pierey's shins and Dixon scored. The Royals' final scores came in the lucky seventh. Holloway doubled to right. Allen fanned. Carr was thrown out and Holloway doubled to right. Allen fanned. Carr was thrown out and Holloway took third. Mackey purposely walked. Rogan next up singled sharply and Holloway and Mackey scored. The play at the plate on Mackey was very close and he looked as to be was out. The All Stars made a dangerous bid in the ninth when McMullen doubled and Murray singled. Rogan then made a running catch of Stengel's line drive to right ending the inning.

LOS ANGELES, CALIF., DECEMBER 18, 1925 Jimmie Stocks 'Beats Little Phil 6x3, 6x1, 6x0 For Championship (By William Mells Watson) (288-B N. Bonnie Brae St. DR-9019) Well folks it is all over, even the shouting. Old man Stokes' athletic son, James Touls, now has five championship tenures, wangling to his belt, while his more beautiful, and equally athletic little sister "Little Eva, proudly, but, most likely, wears three crowns on her prettiest head. Sunday, December sixth "wee Philip P davis" bravely steared his flivver over to Tournament Park, Pasadena to have it out in the postponed finals of men's singles of the Thanksgiving Day Los Angeles County Championships with Jimmy Stokes Phil took his own gallery along to cheer him on to victory, consisting mostly of pretty Los Angeles dolls, but Davis struck a rut in the opening set of the three set match. While he put every thing he had on the ball, Phil was unable to keep it out of Jimmy's path, and he brought sadness to the palpitating hearts of the local colony present by cleaning up with Philly in straight sets 6x3, 6x1, 6x0. "Wee Phillip" was not discouraged, however, and threatens to take a fall out of the Crown City contingent in the proposed round robin tourney next month, whether held in Pasadena or Los Angeles. Atta boy Phil. Alpha's Installation Smoker We are happy while cherroping that the outlook for the coming year tennisally speaking looks more brilliant than ever in our western history. The proposed round robin tournments which are scheduled to be put on monthly or oftener, while small affairs and involving no championships of consequence, are sometimes more interesting to the participants than the latter, as they are short and sweet. Also everybody can have an equal break, as our official handicapper, William Marshall Dunn will do his stuff, which would make champ Jimmy Stocks sweat just as freely to defeat this writer as if playing Bal Kemp, which is Phil's chance also. With all clubs planning to get under way early in January with monthly meetings, it indeed looks like old times. Chairman of the entertainment committee, Elroy Duncan Lott has offered his cosy new home to the Alphites for their proposed installation smoker, at which time President Dr. Richard S. Whittaker will know it is all about. This thing ought to be a huge affair, as nary a mule of the 38 members on the books is likely to show up absent. Westside Club, the Westside Ladies, Racquetees, Racquet Wielders, and the Crown City clubs are all raring to open up a big drive for new young members, and regular meetings, and that means the biggest year ever. Dollar Membership Drive The Fifty cents for those under twenty-one, and dollar for adults dispensation January 1st to April 15th announced last week by the president of the Federation has met a flock of applause from both young and old, and if each club carries out the president's request of initiating at least ten junior and the same number of grown ups, we'll have that much talked of "club house" and three courts within the prescribed two years or we miss our guess.

GEORGE PAYNE Steve Brode, prominent Los Angeles sportsman and one of the backers of the White King baseball nine, believes that the Winter baseball fans should always be given a run for their money. Brode claims that Winter baseball is here to stay but that its future depends upon the brand of baseball displayed and the actions of the players on and off the field. The only request that Brode made of his manager, Doc Crandall, was that he gather together a team not only for their ball playing ability but also for their ability to represent the Los Angeles Soap Company at sport as gentlemen as gentlemen. The team has succeeded in carrying out this quest has been proven as there is not a ball team in Southern California that has a better reputation than the White Kings of playing fast, aggressive, but clean baseball. Which is as it should be seeing that the Los Angeles Soap Company devotes most of its time in helping this World to make every thing cleaner. The White King nines of the past have always been strong clubs and this year's entry in the All Professional Winter League is no exception. Nearly every player on the team has had Major League experience and all are now playing class A ball. Joe BATTLING SIKI KILLED Battling Sild the Sengalees light-heavyweight who at one time held the world championship was found dead on a New York street corner last Tuesday morning. Sild was the victim of an unkind assassion who shot him through the back. Jenkins, catcher, has seen service with the Chicago Cubs and Philadelphia Athletics. Sandberg was with the Cincinnati Reds. Charlie Root was a member of the St. Louis Brown and is going to the Chicago Cubs next year. Clyde Barfoot was with St. Louis and is going back to the Detroit Americans. Geo. Payne was with the Chicago White Sox. Doc Crandall is a former New York Giant noted for his pinch hitting proclivities. Walter Golvin was with the Chicago Cubs. Pete Scott was sold to the Washington Senators, refused to report and was sold again, to the Chicago Cubs. This year McAuley was with the Pittsburg and Chicago National League Clubs. Wally Hood saw service with Brooklyn. Cedric belongs to the St. Louis Club and Bob Bland played with the Chicago National League club. Ever the assistant trainer, James Woodrow Wilkins, had had professional experience in the East but devotes most of his time now to research work connected with the financial end of the club. His enthusiasm for his club is so strong that on several occasions Jim has been forced to go on an involuntary diet as a consequence. All in all it is surely a team fit to represent the Los Angeles Soap Company in a baseballical way. George Godfrey knocked out Battling Owens at New Orleans last Monday night. Godfrey finished his man in the third round after having him on the canvass several times.

The Oilers won 3-0. Our Giants have won five games and lost three and Shell Oil's wins and losses are the same. The first half of the pennant race ends with the games to be played Sunday. The Royals meet the White Kings and Shell Oil plays the All Stars on their home grounds. The Shells are almost a chinch to beat the All Stars so the Giants in order to stay in the race must defeat the White Kings. The above situation means that some fighting baseball will be displayed at the Sox Field, Saturday and Sunday. All the loyal rooters are asked to attend and help the Giants get over the White Kings. PLAYOFF CHRISTMAS DAY SATURDAY AND SUNDAY Should the two teams, the Shell Oils and Giants remain tied after Sunday a series of playoff games are scheduled for the following Friday which is Christmas Day and Saturday and Sunday. If the All-Stars win from the Oilers and the White Kings defeat the Royals Sunday a three cornered tie will result and be played off the three days mentioned above.
