Phone: VANDIKE 9244 TELEPHONE: VAndike 9244 Vol. 39 There is one group of voters in the United States that the practical politician has hung "the Indian Sign." Whenever the Colored brother gets too obstreperous all that he has to be is call "Sam" in, give him a minor place at the "feel trough," turn him loose and let him expatriate on the glorious magnanimity of the Administration. What is the difference to him that his comrades in the service have dispatched, segregated and the inferiority complexes their guzzles. What to him are court decisions which affect the Race? What means to him the rape of Liberia and exploitation of its resources? Nothing! His vanity has been tickled; his greed assuaged; his bump of importance enlarged, and his manly qualities depreciated. --- Some time ago we predicted that a few of our "city fathers" would have a considerable amount of explaining to do, that is if they wished to retain their seats at the City Hall. They tried their best to explain but they "put their feet in their mouths" with each explanation. Results: numerous new faces in and about that edifice. A goodly number of our national solons will come before us for re-election the coming fall. Some States select by primaries. There will have to be considerable explaining from some of our representative commissioners. Our commission" have been rament. Especially "Ommission!" We are for the men, regardless of party, whom we believe can be trusted TO KEEP THEIR WORD. Parties have ceased to have ideals. That virtue must be found in the man. Let us look for him and when found vote for him, REGARDLESS. The Executive: Secretary of a branch of the Y. M. C. A. showed us a cut and a story in one of the association's publications. It was the cut and story of a young Los Angeles Colored youth who has achieved fame as an architect. It is the same story of "the will and the way" a story freighted with the determination of a youth to make some practical use of his knowledge and education. The "Fates" no doubt guided him in his choice of professions because Paul loved to draw Gibson girls and athletes when a young boy, and we feared that he would arti- artist, an artist, is not strewn with buttered bread. But Paul Williams under the guidance of a level-headed Foster Mother stands out today as one of the prominent architects of this nation. Paul Williams has received numerous prizes for ability, and has drawn the plans for the imposing Colored Y. M. C. A. building being erected in Los Angeles. Here are some things, racial in character, that are worth thinking about. Can or will a jury of white men give justice to a Negro on trial? Then why not Negro jurors? Can a democratic government grow under illiteracy? Then why not give equal educational advantages, especially in the South. Can a Republic exist, progress and be a beacon light to the governments of the world when it fraudulently disfrancises millions of its nationals, yet it is written, 'that all governments derive its just power from the consent of the governed.' then why not give to the intelligent Negro the right to say who shall govern him? Disfranchise the ignorWHITE and BLACK. NOT ALONE THE BLACK. Is intolerance the badge of superiority? If so then it would be wise to make obsolete the word, Fear. Unjust laws make for an unstable government, and a government weakened by tyranny will totter to a fall. Lynching; by the unlawful hanging of weaker subjects; burning at the stake and rape of women is MOB TYRANNY, for which the government is responsible. New Colored Revue Being Planned (By the Associated Negro Press) New York, March 22.—Rube Bernstein and Jack Goldberg are preparing a new all-colored revue to be titled 'Black and White Scandals.' It will go into rehearsal late this month. It is scheduled to open in Asbury Park before making a bid for popularity in New York. WE ARE WAITING FOR THAT EASTER BALL I'm tired of everything but that Grand Easter Ball with those Merry Widows at Arion Hall. 3rd and Main, Easter Monday Nite. April 5th. --- Last Sunday the N. A. A. C. P. held two interesting meetings. In the afternoon, Mr. Robert Whitaker, the militant economist urged Negroes to contend manfully for equal opportunities as any other American and to avoid self pity. Those who missed this meeting lost a splendid opportunity to hear a stalwart defender of equal rights. The same evening Mr. John Steven McGroaty urged patience and love as the remedy for wrongs. Negro spirituals were sung at both meetings. Mr. McGroaty said Negroes should be proud that they gave America its choicest gift, "The Spirituals," the only original American music. He enjoyed the singing so much that he invited the choir to be his guest at a performance of the Mission Play in the drive. Next Sunday afternoon, 3:30 P. M. Judge Archibald will speak for the Junior Division at the Independent Church. All are welcome. Several prominent citizens have offered nearly $200 in prizes to the best workers in the drive.

BEGGAR MAKES $250 A WEEK (By the Associated Negro Press) New York, March 18.—A "poor, legless man," who needed charity and got it at the rate of $250 a week, was arraigned Friday before Magistrate Farrell in Essex Market Court and let off with a $5 fine on his promise to leave the city. He had to borrow all but 20 cents of the money from a friend. The cripple, who said he was Arthur Buckingham, 28, of Binghamton, New York, told Magistrate Farrell he came here two weeks after a friend told him he could make $100 a day panhandling in New York and was wasting his time in Binghamton. His legs were amputated above the knees seven years ago as the result of a railroad accident, he said, for which he received $25,000 damages. He checked his wooden legs at the Pennsylvania Station, Buckingham said, and went at once to the Bowery, where he "got along fine," was "too liberal" with his money, "buying drinks right and left for the crowd." He said he had $5,000 "put away" from his damage money and promised to return to Binghamton. A PAPER WITH A HEART AND SOUL LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, MARCH 26, 1926 Randolph Addresses L A. Central Trades and Labor Council (Special B. of S. C. P.) A. Philip Randolph, Editor of the Messenger and General Organizer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, addressed a big meeting of the Central Trades and Labor Council, Friday evening, March 19th. He showed why it was so essential for white workers to back the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, indicating that a victory for one group of workers was a victory for all, regardless of race, creed, or color. Great interest was shown in his attack on race prejudice among workers. Randolph forcefully emphasized that the greedy capitalist dogs were running away with the meat in the form of high profits, while the black and white working class dogs were only left the bone of starvation wages, because they were wasting their time quarreling over race prejudice, which only kept them apart, and benefited the bosses. He urged the white workers to join hands with their black brothers in the fight for more and better education, food clothing and housing. The talk was received with a deafening applause. At the end, the president of the Council arose and said that in the name of the workers of Los Angeles, he pledged the support of the Council to the Brotherhood, and wished us God-speed. Mrs. Mamie Cummings Again Victor in Action ATTY. E. C. JENNINGS PROVES THAT JUSTICE WILL PREVAIL About two years ago Mr. George C. Cummings, one of the old and respected citizens of Los Angeles, passed away leaving a will in which he bequeathed and devised all property in his possession to his widow, Mrs. Mamie Cummings, and making attorney FRED MASON, executor of his will. Mrs. Mamie Cummings retained Attorney E. C. Jennings to represent her and upon her statement that all the property, in the possession of her husband, Mr. George C. Cummings, at the time of his death had been purchased with money she had earned prior to her marriage to Mr. Cummings, and with her own separate, funds. Attorney Jennings filed an action in the Superior Court of Los Angeles County to Quiet Title to said property on the theory that Mr. George C. Cummings held the property in trust for his wife. Mrs. Mamie Cummings; former lawyer was the employee of court and he employed Attorney Willi, O. Tyler to represent him. In February, 1925, the case was tried and the Court duly issued a decree declaring that Mrs. Mamie Cummings was the owner of and entitled to all the property described in Mr. Cummings' will. More than six months after this decree had been filed Attorney Lewis K. Beeks filed an affidavit and motion to set aside the former decree for the reason that one DELIA T. CUMMINGS, of Galveston, Texas, was the lawful wife of George C. Cummings, deceased, and was such wife, was entitled to the property described in the will of Mr. Cummings. Upon the representation and affidavit made by Attorney Lewis K. Beeks, the Court set aside the former decree and allowed Mrs. Delia T. Cummings to file her decree in intervention; the issues were joined and the final hearing of the case was heard on March 1, 1926, Mrs. Delia T. Cummings appearing in person and by her Attorneys Lewis K. Beeks, Esq., and M. C. Boles, Jennings, Esq., and associate Counsel George W. Buh, Esq., formerly the Judge of Shuster County, California; on account of the illness of Attorney Beeks the case was continued to 9 o'clock A. M., March 8, 1926, which time all parties to the action appeared, completed the presentation of their evidences and after the argument of Attorney Beeks the Judge decided that Mrs. Mamie Cummings of Los Angeles, California, the client of Attorney E. C. Jentings, was the legal owner of the property in question and entitled to the possession of the whole thereof; and the judgment was renamed accordingly. This particular case has attracted a great deal of attention because of the publicity given to it by some of the interested parties who sought to prove that the intervention was T. Cummings in Texas. (Continued on page 4.) With the assistance of Mrs. Katherine J. Barr, Executive Secretary of the Los Angeles Urban League and Mrs. Georgia Robinson, Los Angeles policewoman, Mrs. Albert Moore-Covington, probation officer of the Juvenile Court at Chicago, Ill., is making a study of local condition that relate to the problems of juveniles and the courts. Mrs. Covington, a former student CHRISTOPHER C. COVINGTON Former Chief of Police of Robbins, ILL of the Chicago School of Philanthropy is connected with the investigation division of the Juvenile Court of Chicago and is considered an authority on social problems as they affect the life of Negro children in large cities. She is also chairman of the board of directors of the Big Sisters' League of Chicago, her native city and a member of the Round Table League, an organization composed of Negro professional social workers whose chief object is the care of "Unwad Negro Mothers." Mrs. Covington is the wife of Christopher C. Covington who was chief of police at Robbins' Illinois, a town of 5000 inhabitants within an hour's ride of Chicago. He is a veteran of the World War and was at one time a police officer at Zion City, Ills., the town made famous by the late Alexander Dewie. At present, former Chief Covington is serving on the police force in Chicago where he has made an enviable record for himself as the killer of two desperate bandits for which he was handsomely rewarded by the police commission which raised his salary as a reward for his bravery. The Chicago press has several times made honorable mention of Covington's record as a fearless police officer. Mrs. Covington and her nce, Miss Ruth Shoecraft are stopping at the Bronx Hotel. RUM RAMPANT IN THE WEST INDIES (By the Associated Negro Press) Philadelphia, Pa., March 20.—The West. Indies have the same problems as this country—bootleggers and the younger generation. Mrs. James Newman Carter, white, so declared Thursday, addressing the Plastic Club. "The Island of Nassau, one of the most beautiful spots in the West Indies, is over-run with bootleggers," she said. "Formerly, this spot of beauty, with its easy going natives, its blue sky and sea, was a tranquil place of peace and simple living. "But the advent of the bootlegger has turned the Island into a marketplace, with the talk of liquor on every lip. Prices have soared. An ordinary hotel costs $12 per day. Second rate board houses want $82 for a week's lodging. "In Havana, it was not unusual to see young boys and girls discreetly avoiding their chaperons. Cuba itself is gambling crazy. People bet on everything from the horse races to the weather. "One of the most popular sports for the tourist is a large beer garden of a brewery in Havana. Here, at the consent of the owners, the American can drink beer to his hearts content without charge. Miss. Mvra Parker of 1114 East 400th street entertained at dinner Thursday, March 18th in honor of Mrs. Aulene Jefferson-Slaughter formerly of Omaha, Neb. Covera were laid for her. (By the Associated Negro Press) Philadelphia, Pa., March 17.—Police of the Tenth and Buttonwood Streets station arrested Crawford Thomas and charged him with murder in connection with the death of Courtly Green, who died in the Children's Homeopathic Hospital, Thursday morning. It is alleged that Thomas fired five shots into Green's body when he went to Green's room and demanded that Green keep away from Thomas' wife. Green is said to have stated that he did not even know where Thomas' wife was living. The couple had not lived together for some time. Knockout Amateur Boxing Bar (By the Associated Negro Press) Philadelphia, Pa., March 22.—The barring of colored youths from amateur prize-fights in this city was given a knockout blow Friday when Chas. Fred White the Negro member of the Pennsylvania Boxing Commission, revoked Harry McGrath's license as a judge of boxing shows and cut him off from all connection with boxing in this state. Danny Morgan, a colored newboy with ambitions to compete in an amateur tournament, applied for registration to the A. A. U. At first the registration was refused, but the officials of the organization learned that discrimination on account of a man's color was an offense against the Constitution of the United States and also against the State of Pennsylvania laws. They reconsidered the action and accepted Morgan's registration. Then Morgan wanted to enter for the tournament now being run under the auspices of the Shanahan Athletic Club, the first bouts of which were held Thursday night, but McGrath refused to accept the entry. The youth then got in touch with Commissioner White, who told McGrath that he was violating the laws of the state and the country, and advised that Morgan's entry be received for the bouts of the Shanahan Club for Friday night's fights. Then McGrath got "tight"!! He informed "White that boxed boxers had never competed in amateur bouts here and he did not intend that they should." Commissioner White got busy. McGrath emarmed part of his living acting as judge of professional boxing, and Mr. White promptly ordered Secretary Young to revoke McGrath's license as a judge and cut him off from all connection with boxing in this state. McGrath was to have been one of the judges at the Arena, the largest boxing club in this city on Monday night, but that is a piece of change McGrath will not collect. White will have to fight William Rocap, the chairman, whose attitude toward Negro fights has made him a disliked man among the Negroes of this city. It was the latter who insisted that there would not be mixed bouts when the commission board was created a few years ago. And it was then that that Mr. White showed how he could fight for his people. Although the only Negro member on the board, he was successful in having mixed bouts, much to the displeasure of Rocap and a few others. Miss Alice Harvey's Recital A Success After an extensive study of music at U. S. C., Miss Alice Bertha Harvey was presented in recital by her teacher, Mrs. Lillian. Backstrand Wilson, last Monday evening at the Second Baptist Church. Much praise is due Miss Harvey for the classical renditions of the difficult renditions which she sang. She showed by her singing that in her study of music she had really gotten the benefit of it. Her voice is one of which we, as a race, should be proud. She was ably assisted by Mrs. Luver Harper, and Mr. Richard Bate, violinist, both of whose fame we well known. Miss E. Motten was the accompaniist. After the program, Rev. Griffith introduced Mrs. Wilson, who spoke a few words and her husband, Mr. Wilson, principal of Manual Arts High School, who in his remarks pronounced Mr. Bates a "genius." Those who were fortunate enough to attend this recital will always remember it as an outstanding one. By: A FRIEND Obedient to the summons of the Death Angel, a noble man has passed from our midst, the immediate cause of his death was a basal fracture of the skull as a result of a fall in the pursuit of his calling. Mr. Thompson filled a unique place in our community, always employed in arduous labor, yet he found time to think and act for the good of the entire city, and to strive to put himself where his thinking would find expression in action. He thrice made the race for Councilmanic honors receiving a very respectable vote, not however, enough to elect. He was an ideal citizen, a good friend, husband and father. His precepts and practices were ever for progress and advancement. His example was one which any young man could imitate with great benefit, as he was industrious, conscientious, benevolent, ambitious and thoroughly dependable. William Joshua Thompson was born at Shelbyville, Bedford County, Tennessee, January 25, 1865 and was at the time of his decemise 59 years, 1 month and 10 days of age. With his parents he left their Tennessee home and sent to Wichita, Kansas, when he was twelve years of age, after seven years' residence he left Wichita and went to Denver, Colorado, after about five years in Denver he went to Sacramento and for the last thirty-five years his time was spent in Sacramento and Santa Barbara and Los Angeles. He was a resident of Los Angeles for twenty-two years.

Waivers were procured from all the heirs and hence Mr. McGuire will come into the entire estate. 3,000 Women Demand Anti-Lynching Law (By the Associated Negro Press Jackson, Miss., March 19:—Thousands of Mississippi's white women have gone on record publicly against lynching, and three thousand of the number have signed a petition asking the legislature to enact more stringent laws against it, as the result of a tour of the state by Mrs. Maud Henderson of the Commission on Inter-Racial Co-operation.

Series of Barber Course By: SEWILLA POLLARD STERILIZING AND ANTISEPTIC SOLUTIONS There are so few of us who consider shaving of great importance. We just go about it in a careless manner. We pay no attention to how we do it just so the result is a neat appearance. If one would be more attentive to the discoveries of modern scientists they would consider the sanitary side of the neat appearance. That is, they would sterilize their tools and be very careful about the antiseptic solutions that they used. You would be very much surprised at the success you would attain because you were more careful. There is absolutely no doubt about this. Unless there are frank discussions there will be no real enlightenment from a hygienic standpoint. Sterilizing your razor is very important. This needs no explanation. The use of antieptics for your brushes, cups and stropes are also very important. In this kind of care of tools much neglect has been shown among the past members of the fraternity. Oftimes with disastrous results. Your patronage can be increased by strict attention to this one important feature. This process should be resorted to as often as seems necessary. After working over a sore face or what we may term a syphilitic subject, wash your hands in a mild solution of "Bichloride of Mercury." If you have no steam sterilizer, your razors may be dipped or boiled, without any injury to them, in the same solution. The barber should go through this process after every case as mentioned above. However, steam sterilizers are preferable. Place your mug, lather brush and hair brushes in water, the temperature of which is about 150° F. Strops may also be treated in the same manner, and afterwarm oil strops will carbonized vaseline. Strops will need proper very seldom. Our next lesson will honong and stropping.

Page--Two As we go to press this week I do not feel that this valuable space will be wasted should we try to awaken that which has been latent and dormant within some of us for so many years, namely, Courage. The artist who drew the above picture has so vividly and forcefully presented his conception of the subject. There is very little left for us to say, but in commenting on the drawing permit us to suggest that we simply study it, think about it, concentrate on it, and finally have courage to acquire something for ourselves before 1946—Another 20 years—"Perhaps old age for some—Finds some of us where we are today—Woofly without !!!" 1905—Los Angeles County was appraised at $201,509,-786.00. 1910—Los Angeles County had increased to $593,861,492, an increase of 194.7 over a period of five years. 1916—Los Angeles County had a valuation of $849,991,595, showing a per centage gain of 43.1 per cent. 1920—Los Angeles County was valued at $1,074,404,454, which was an increase over 1916 of 26.4 per cent. 1925—Los Angeles County at that time which was the last assessment shown was rated as being worth $2,716,223,805, still another gain of 152.8 per cent. Using a little mathematics we find that since 1905 Los Angeles County, as a whole, has increased in value 12 times, a gain of 1200 per cent. Sixty-two per cent a year is the average per centage gain that Los Angeles County has made every 12 months since 1905. Folks, statistics from the office of the Honorable Board of Supervisors of our County will corroborate the above as being facts, not guess work, but thanks to Mr. Heber W. Waters it was he who gave these facts to the public Sunday, March 7, 1926, which is most astounding information. Did you see the article? If not, I am offering same for your information today. When these facts have all been summed up it means nothing more than Courage. It took Courage, yes, much Courage to build Los Angeles. How many of us as individuals can truthful- ly say, "Yes,' I too had the Courage to build with the city." How many of us have heard this remark twenty years ago?—I am going to wait until prices come down, anyway that property is toc far out!—Well, those twenty years have come and gone, the Price descension day has been postponed and that which was far out is now close in, but what it took to make it close in Folks was Courage. Oh, Yes! The next twenty years is sure to come. Those who figure this game tell us that a piece of ground worth $2,-000.00 today 1926, will be worth $6,000 in 1931; $12,000 in 1936; $18,000.00 in 1941; $24,000.00 in 1946. Your County Assessor arrives at these figures by making a general average valuation upon the figures herein above quoted for your information. I wish to say for the benefit of the real man or woman who does not know how to arrive at Real Estate values, it would be far better that he or she would take a little money and even with closed eyes buy a piece of land anywhere in Los Angeles County and let Father Time do the rest rather than to have not had the Courage and foresight to have ventured at all, because the very ground upon which you live today 5-10,15-20,25 years ago was a sub-division. Do you realize any increase in values around you today? If not, then go with me out Western Avenue; let's drive over to Third street where thirteen years ago I was offered eighteen acres of land for $35,000.00—Folks, I said EIGHTEEN ACRES. I did have the initiative to go and see this land but did not have the Courage to buy although I had the money; after breaking a couple of springs in my automobile because of the rough roads in that district at that time and looking upon that vast barren field, I decided I wouldn't have the land as a gift, and felt that I was being stung because the seller wanted to charge me nearly $2,000.00 per acre for said land. I am quite sure most of you know Western Avenue at Third street today and a 60-foot lot at the point will cost you more than the entire cost of the Eighteen acres just thirteen years ago. Now, let's go twenty-six blocks south, still on Western avenue there you will find twenty-ninth street where less than six GORDON MANOR. THE SUB-DIVISION BEAUTIFUL FRIDAY, MARCH 26, 1926 than every other section of Los Angeles combined and value in the next Six Years." d watch your profits jump. URAGE! years ago one of our group did have the Courage to buy a piece of frontage for a little less than $6,000.00, quite a bit of money for sixty feet, did you say? Well, maybe not so much when you realize that about a year ago that same man was offered nearly $500.00 per front foot for that same piece of ground. Folks, he had the Courage to Back his Judgment. Now, let's go further south, where less than six years ago we ran into the old Chinese cabbage field at Western and Slauson avenues. We had to detour if we wanted to go to Redondo. Make the same trip with me Sunday and you will not have to detour, but instead you will go through a most wonderful district on your way to Manchester avenue. In that vicinity you will find where lots sold for $2500.00 to $3000.00 (Yes, we are still on Western Avenue), just five years ago, have since sold for prices ranging from $10,000.00 to $30,000.00. Observe these improvements as you ride along. As we leave Manchester avenue in about twelve or fifteen minutes we reach a new settlement where just three years ago you found just a one-horse gasoline station as you turned to go to Redondo Beach;, folks, this was where the pavement ended on Western avenue and this point was and is now known as Western avenue and Riverside-Redondo Road, but Western avenue continues now on to Wilmington. After you have paused there for a while and noted the improvements within the last two or three years turn to your right and follow me about a mile towards the beach on that same Riverside-Redondo Road. Let's stop a while at the little orange-colored house. Now at this point you are looking at nothing more than a barley field. But as you stand there and watch the golden sun go down in all of its splendcr and grandeur—If you are a lover of Nature's most beautiful creations you will marvel at the sight—This is GORDON MANOR, the Sub-Division Beautiful, big and stupenduc, involving several millions in Dollars, yet it is ours. Walk all over it, look at it carefully, think about it, learn all that you can about it, then for the sake of posterity, as well as old age, have Courage enough to buy a piece of it and let Father Time do the rest.

And having created and redeemed man God has made him His son and heir. Now "a wise son makes a glad father." God wants his sons to be wise. He has therefore laid hold upon every object of nature to teach lessons to men. Man is created capable of infinite happiness or of unspeakable misery. His glory, his honor, his happiness all depend upon His wisdom. Let us be wise today. What are the lessons of our text? THE SLUGGARD REPROVED Now a sluggard is a slowward, a lazy person. Persons may be lazy of body, lazy of brain or lazy of Spirit. Some, alas many, are all three. The sluggard is a person who wants someone to do his work. Very often, he wants to enjoy the best without working for it, either with brain, or hand, or soul. Some of them are great sleepers and eaters and work other people very hard trying to care for them. They ruin the property they live in because of the happiness of those who try to love them and they are the special agents of hard times. Besides that they love to fault-find, talk and argue. The Good Book says that "the sluggard is wiser in his own conceit than seven men that can render a reason." There are three kinds of sluggards: (1) Physical sluggards who dodge all exacting work and who only half do what they are compelled to do. A lazy husband, a lazy wife or even a lazy child is an awful affliction. So is a lazy servant; (2) The mental sluggard remains ignorant but wants to be esteemed wise. He is too lazy to put himself to the trouble to acquire correct information and useful knowledge so he remains an ignoramas and a fool. Yet he often wants to "put on" around others as if he were intelligent. He succeeds in making himself pitiful or disgusting. Honest ignorance from lack of opportunity is pitiful but not disgraceful. But the ignorance of a lazy fool is disgusting, Unbearable, impossible of enjoyment. Don't be one; "go to the ant." Then there is the person who is smart, intelligent, industrious, acquisitive and all that, but who neglects his soul's salvation or neglects to allow himself to be useful to his God in the salvation of others. In the second chapter of Hebrews we read a terrible thing—"If the work spoken by angels was steadfast and every transgression and disobedience received, a just recompense of reward, how shall we escape if we neglect so great salvation." Pray do not neglect your soul, your work for God, your heavenly duty. Go to the ant. THE LESSON FROM THE ANT The ant is a hustler. She does not put off today for tomorrow. She believes in leaving her work for no other to do. She does not waste her days and go after a good time. She knows winter is coming. She hustles. She does her work in due time. She prepares her food in Summer. In nothing on earth are men as neglectful as in the matter of salvation. It is the last job men want to tackle. O that in this matter too we would go to the ant and let her teach us a thing or two. What does it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his soul? Consider it, won't you? Consider it. Some of us are very industrious in providing for our families or promoting our social advancement. What profit is it all if we neglect salvation and lose the soul? Go to the ant. Consider her ways and be wise. The spiritual sluggard now thinks he or she is wise. Some day he will proclaim his own folly. Be industrious for soul and body, time and eternity. THE PLEA FOR WISDOM There are several ways to observe and consider. One may consider a thing to be amused by it, or to fault find, or to learn from it. The real wise person considers a thing to learn from it. "Go to the ant," pleads the spirit, "consider her ways and be wise. Be wise, in wisdom is life and honor. Be wise and hold a light so the world may see its ways to life and glory. Be wise and show the way of life to your children. Be wise and make earth a happier place. Be wise and get to heaven. Be wise and help defeat the powers of darkness and bring on the Kingdom eternal. -Be wise, O be wise. Amen. TOURIST MISSION MAKES REPORTS 2609 Central Ave. Matt. 25:35, 36 Rev. Herbert A. Foster, Secretary We are glad to be able to announce to the public at this time, that the work at our Mission is holding its own and making good. In scanning our quarterly report of Christian activities in the community, along with the numerous other splendid welfare agencies at work in Los Angeles, our members are feeling activated. Tourists' Mission is outstanding in that since its organization December 9, 1924, it has received no revenue from the accommodations it has afforded, and is, non-profiteering. For instance, shortly before Miss Davis, left, two young girls, strangers and alone, were befriended and given a temporary home in the quarters without a cent of cost, and not turned loose until safely located with kin people in the city, they had come seeking. Likewise, a good many meals and lunches, as well as clothing and car fares have been given to people of all nations, when we have been convinced that they needed them. We favor, and largely carry out the policy of "Not letting the right hand know what the left hand does," in our giving and—but while we are not making a noise about it, honest Mission work, that is real, is being put across from this 'Demonstration Station.' Our Home Mission Campaign Club is composed of a faithful few whose motto is: "Learning to do by doing." Our wonderful, exemplary leader, Miss Sidney J. Davis, was unexpectedly called from us last fall, on the sad occasion of her mother's departing this life, and the members of her Mission here are sharing her deep sorrow. One of our big incentives, as we have tried to with courage carry forward the work during her absence, has been to prove to her that her ardent labors in a new and significant undertaking to give us an Institution wherein we might have opportunity to exercise our gifts and training, in service to the Master, that has opened up to us such larger fields by connecting us with the great national Baptist Convention, appointed as her disciples of whom she has made co-workers which we feel it an honor to be. And, so following the example of her ever ready spirit of service to humanity, we have put the program over, the best we could, while she is away. Trusting that our efforts have been acceptable unto the Lord and useful in the upbuilding of his cause. Cullings From Our Reports For Dec., Jan. and Feb. We had a special Christmas service with a splendid sermon on the Birth of Christ, by our Minister, Rev. W. P. Banks and the distribution of toys sent in to us for donations to children. Our Mission has a strong W. C. T. U. and a committee of them took a donation of four quart jars of choice home canned peaches and two pint jars of pears to the W. C. T. U., Old Ladies Home, for the Holidays—In addition to this, we sent a box containing fifty-two articles of clothing to our Mission work in Chamberion New Mexico. Our club members contributed from their own pockets, express charges as follows: Rev. P. Lowe, $1; Miss Luella M. Smith, 50c; William Foster, 32c; total $1.82—The envegency of the box to the Express office was donated by Mr. Tom Cole. This was the second box sent by our Club to that community in New Mexico during the year: the first was sent to Vado, to the Valley Baptist Church, another station of the Home Mission Board. We have also sent $10.00 to the Colored Baptist Church in Santa Barbara, California (who were earthquake sufferers in the loss of their church building) at the grand A letter from Bangalore, India, from Rev. Borthwick, the returned Missionary to whom our Mission gave money to purchase a dozen Bibles, when he was with us last summer, came to our office in January and states: "I have been able to turn the money which you so kindly gave for Bibles into the desired direction and have distributed all but two. Just as I was going to buy Bibles, a young Indian Pastor came with a bundle of them, he said he could not sell. I told him Tourists' Mission, in America, had given me money for Bibles and sent them to the Bombardier Tamil (Indian language) Bibles. Some were given to inmates of the Baggars' Home and some to our children at the Orphanage. It is good to see some of them sitting and slowly reading the Scriptures which are able to make wise unto salvation." Returning to Los Angeles activities: Sixteen services, inside and "Open Air," beside Bible study and prayers in homes with the sick, were held during the quarter. In February we had to cut out some meetings on account of rain. A donation of groceries and fruit were carried to Rev. Z. Dean, one of our Club members during his illness, his good wife, Mrs. M. L. Dean, is the Vice-President. Upon invitation of Rev. F. C. Cothran, a committee from our Campaign Club, conducted an afternoon service at his Church, with program as follows: Rev. Hal P. Lowe (Tourist Mission's coming Evangelist) delivered a very spiritual sermon on the subject, "Christian Testimony," which was highly enjoyed by his hearers. Miss Luella M. Smith, our Mission's accomplished musician, who is so faithful with us in services indoor or of doors, had charge of the music; William Foster our boy member, made a talk and the rest of us did our bit in the singing. We received much praise from Rev. Cothran and his members. The collection at one of our recent evening services was given to a man who was present and asked for help. Our "Open Air" services continue to grow in interest and popularity. Your humble servant as the preacher in this particular service is striving to do more than simply 'give the winds a mighty voice,' he is trying to preach the Gospel to the poor who may not have good clothes to go to Church and all who pass by. The folding organ that we use in our outside meetings, is the donation of Rev and Mrs. F. Seayne, a couple of the members of our Club, of whose qualification for team work in evangelism, we are thankful.

SANITARIUM ‘After bein sick for. over a year and a half, Ed Cruzot, division 5, jan- itor of the Jes Angeiex itailway Company, died at Olive View Sani- tarium, Sunday, March 14, 1926. "He was born in Morris Point, Mis- siss‘npi, but ,Por the past six years has made his{home in Los Angeles. “The jovial janitor” as he wa, known at division 5, was indeed fitting name for him! Even to the end, no matter how hard things would go against him, he world not allow anybody to know his troubles. Tt was his worderful disposition that won him so many friends at the-di- vision." His funeral was held at Conner- Johnson’ Undertaking Parlor with Father Cleghorn in charge. The music was fuomighed by | Mesdames Connor, Outley and Benjamin, and Mr. Johnson. All the bd; of the division and friends join in offering ther heart- felt. sympathy to ‘his relatives and parents during their bereavement.

The early attainment of her normal strength will afford the many friends of little Miss Johnston and her devoted mother much joy and re- lief. Miss Johnston was due to have raduated from the High School in Fine, this year; but this sad accident will delay the young lady to some time during the next school year. While such delay is to be regretted, her friends feel relief in the know- ledge of Miss Johnston's recovery. She is known to be very ambitious in her school work and during much of her confinement in the sick room, studiously applied herself to the textbooks of her course in school.

MARCH 26, 1926 O RAILROAD CLATTER By— Chas. L. Upton OUR NEXT SUPERINTENDENT Mr. C. Lincoln, Dist. Supp. of Pullman Co., Los Angeles, is about to be retired he has served the Pullman Co. faithfully for forty years, now he will reap the reward of a pension for the balance of his life. If Mr. Lincoln was to receive no pension at all, he would still be rewarded by the fact that he has lived seventy years in this world, and is still alive, well, and able to enjoy his declining years in a climate that is enviwed by all the world. Long may he live and may he reach the century mark. The main topic of discussion now is, Who will be the next Superintendent of the Los Angeles District? Will he be fair in his dealings with the porters? Will he be liberal in his policies? Will he gag at a GNAT and swallow at a camel on petty issues, or will he be a twententieth century man with new and modern ideas capable of putting the Los Angeles city in the grip of many questions the men are asking of each other and the appointment is being looked forward to with much interest. C. H. LEVY ROBBED Porter C. H. Levy and son were robbed of the biggest part of their wearing apparel last week, while Mr. Levy was in San Francisco, burglaries took the opportunity to jimmie his bed-room window and stole all of his clothes, except the ones he had on. His son, Kenneth, was attending school at the time the robbery occurred. The unfortunate happening left Mr. Levy with a full dress suit and a pair of B. V. D's. -00- J. Ponder, M. E. Jackson and Wm. Asbury were assigned to car 75 on the Lark. -00- They have got W. E. Marshall running to E. Phoenix, Ariz. now, which means a Hot man running to a Hot town. -00- E. Nash failed to show up last week—We wonder why? -00- S. A. Hoppog and his gang have not decided whether they are going to let J. Ponder stay on the Lark, they say "it all depends." What we want to know is, what is the matter with Wm. Asbury and the St. Louis run? And how can the Santa Fe run without him? Maybe things got too hot down there for him. 00— T. Harris has at last got a divorce from his first love, the Tourist Car line, 2640' and is now playing the field. Now is your chance J. D. Banton to win back your fair lady love. You have at last come to the conclusion that the reason there are so many divorces, and unhappy marriages, is on account of the women letting their hobbies eat in Johnson's pool room restaurant; "Oh boy!" them meals. 00 The writer celebrated his 15th wedding anniversary last week spreading sheets between Los Angeles and San Francisco, which is far better than dodging pots and pans—long may I live, and may she always miss, I hate to brag on my wonderful enurance, but I think in stage of the game I am at least qualified to administer a little advice to you young, ambitious married men, just now about to enter into a stormy sea of macaroni and on the verge of signing your first contract with the Eastern Outfitting Co. Come home early—in the morning; don't spend your check on any part of it, because from now on money is only for you to make, not to spend; keep a stiff upper lip when she spins you to work with car fare only; try to be a man and eat her biscuits and stay away from Johnson's pool hall or you won't last six weeks, and I don't mean maybe. Being an authority on this matter, with 15 years' experience to back it up, I again warn you that as a married man, you relinquish all rights to the last work in all arguments, and have now henceforth and forever but two privileges—FIRST: to follow out the above instructions; SECOND: see Judge Summerfield and pay alimony for the balance of your natural life. SOUTHERN PACIFIC Mr. Page Reed celebrated 4th cook of Chef Cook A. L. Binkly's crew, has really done that thing, with a brave heart he wooed Lucile Holmes and marched with a steady step up to the Court House, as he left the palace of doom he was heard to murmur: "Honey, from now on you can do the cooking." Mr. Percy Buck made a flying trip to Frisco last week. Well! Well! "Sugar Davis," that sweet man is back again, we thought he was gone for good but he was just sick. All these high officials of the S. P. have been keeping the road hot between Los Angeles, and Frisco for the past week. What's it all about? Does it take from the President on down to change the schedule of 109-110. Where there is smoke there is bound to be some fire. Everybody has passed through Los Angeles but could man Torreon, and the last time he passed through he was red hot; if you don't believe me ask Johnson and Freeman. 2. If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened I wonder whether Fred Thornton has turned loose that gold brick he's got on Wall Street yet? Jesse Johnson is still carrying the Blue Ribbon for benign the king sheik of the Lark crews. The K. K. K. sent Holland Walker a letter telling him to cease wearing that derby hat. The boys on the Lark are wondering what they will go to Santa Barbara on when they cut out 32, take the "bus boys."

Los Angeles, March 24.—As a culmination of an intensive organization campaign in Los Angeles, A. Philip Randolph, Editor of the Messenger Boston Field Organizer of the Brotherthood of Sleeping Car Porters formed the Local Organization for the Los Angeles Division. Over seventy percent of the porters in the district signed up with the Brotherhood, according to Mr. A. L. Totten. Some of the most substantial, oldest and responsible men in the district have rallied to the standard of the Union. Even the extremely conservative men finally conceded that the Brotherhood, and not the Employee Plan of Representation, can, and will successfully solve the problems of the Pullman porters. One of the convincing arguments with the older men was that the organization was interested in, concerned with, and committed to the policy of the highest type of constructive discipline and efficient service, both for the benefit of the Pullman porters, the public, and the company. The Company progranda which was calculated to create distrust among the men of the purposes and aims of the Union, has completely collapsed. According to Mr. Randolph, there is no evidence of any serious opposition to the Organization in the district. The Company realizes that the Union is a reality, and that nothing can stem the title of organization among the men. Mr. Randolph is profuse in his expressions of appreciation and thanks for the fine spirit of co-operation he has received from the people of Los Angeles. He particularly stressed the spirit of fair play he met among the men of his own profession—the journalist—who rallied to him with a big-hearted spirit of fellowship. Los Angeles is the final stop of Messrs. Randolph, Totten and Collins on the Coast. From here, they return East, where the work of presenting the case to the United States Railroad Labor Board, or whatever agency holds jurisdiction over this class of cases, with a view to securing a revision of wages upward and an improvement of working conditions. Mr. Randolph feels very confident that the Organization will not only achieve great results for the porters in particular, but that it will become one of the most constructive movements for the advancement of the Race in general.

At this particular time there is no question but what the people of our group are justified in the belief that there is a determined effort being made toward segregation along all possible lines. No move striking example of this effort could be possible than the boldness of the Park Commission in brazenly defying the Constitution and Jim Crowing the public swimming pools of this city. The proposition is further accentuated by the rank and raw gratuitous opinion of Judge Hartley Shaw from the bench of the Superior Court. Then the boldness of the procedure in attempt to prevent the Colored people from occupying their own premises on the West Side, the general sight of discriminatory signs against the City Ordinances, all point to the fact that the fight to discredit, hamper and keep the members of one particular group from advancing is on as never before.

Sir Tex Rickard, fight promotor is on record according to the daily press as saying that a Wills and Dempsey fight should not be permitted for fear of a race riot. This coming from Rickard whose pockets are already bulging out with dollars which he has earned from matching black and white fighters should be taken with grains of salt. There is a bug under the chip and it may be that Rickard is playing his cards as a last resort to land a match which seems to be spilling away from him. people.

THE MAGIC OF WATER AND POWER A Story of the Romance of Water And Electrical Power in the Upbuilding of Los Angeles AVERTING A POWER SHORTAGE In March of 1917 the Municipal Bureau of Power and Light completed its first hydro-electric generating plant along the Owens River aqueduct. The plant was called San Franciscoquito No. 1, being named after the canyon in which it was situated. Power from this source, distributed to consumers at exceedingly low rates, opened for this city the Gateway to industrial expansion and prosperity. The word went out that cheap power for factories and mills was available in Los Angeles. Almost overnight the amazing industrial develop- Municipal Power Burea's Plant ment of this area was underway. Factory wheels began to whirl and multiply. New jobs were created for an ever increasing population; the value of manufactured products increased by leaps and bounds. Los Angeles—the Wonder City—was in the making. Cheap power from the Bureau's first plant created a demand for still larger quantities of electrical energy from a rapidly growing number of industrial and domestic consumers. To meet this increasing demand. Chief Electrical Engineer E. F. Scattergood urged the immediate construct by the Bureau of Power and part of the large power plant in the San Francisco area, cordially, a bond issue of $2,000.00 was submitted to the voters in June, 1917, to finance the building of the plant. This bond issue was opposed by interests which did not favor the expansion of the City's electrical system, and failed by a few votes of securing the necessary two-thirds majority. In June of 1919 a bond issue of $13,500,000 was submitted to the voters and authorized by an overwhelming majority. Proceeds from this issue were to be used for the purchase by the City of the electrical distributing system in Los Angeles of the Southern California Edison Company, and for the building of the second power plant, to be known as San Franciscoquito Plant No. 2. After the voting of the bonds a number of suits were filed seeking to hold up the sale of the securities. It was not until February, 1922, that these suits were all won by the City and the Edison purchase completed. In the meantime the new industrial expansion of Los Angeles was bringing about an ever increasing demand for more and more hydri-electric power. The need for electrical energy was rapidly overtaking the supply. Mr. Scattergood pointed out that Power plant No. 2 must be built at once or the City's industrial development and prosperity would be cut short. Bond funds, urgently needed to finance this construction work, were tied up in litigation. Fortunately however, the Power Bureau's operation of its system, with the first plant as a source of energy, had proved highly successful, and a plan whereby the second plant could be financed from the Bureau's own revenues was outlined by Mr. Scattergood. The plan was approved and work on the plant was set underway immediately. The building of Power Plant No. 2 was started in August of 1919. In the ```markdown ``` Spring of 1920, because of low rainfall conditions, all California faced a crippling power shortage. Work on the new plant was rushed forward at top speed. It was completed and in operation, with a generating capacity of 41,000 horsepower, in July, 1920 exactly eleven months after being started. Just as Los Angeles was slipping within the grip of a general statewide power shortage the giant turbines of the Power Plant were generating unit began to move. Along with mission lines this energy came flashing to the rescue of factories, stores and homes. Fortified by a new block of energy from the Power Bureau's second large generating plant, Los Angeles alone escaped the losses of a power shortage throughout the West. Instead of diminishing, its industrial activity pushed forward with renewed vigor. Seeking the one center where power at low rates was available in sufficient quantities, new manufacturers and investors began building new numbers. The commercial expansion and general prosperity which follow San Francisquito Power No. 2 ed put Los Angeles on the Nation's map as "the White Spot" of America." THE PASSING OF J. W. THOMPSON (Continued from page 1) At the age of twelve years he was converted and attached himself to the Christian Church, and has been a loyal member of that faith throughout his life, save when in a locality where there was no established church of that faith; then he went under watchear of some other Christian body. Birch St. Church was the scene of his best activities in later life, he was an active member there, when he go his call to the higher church. God seems to have called him to be a Superintendent of Sunday Schools. His first call to superintendency was at the age of 14 years in Wichita, Kansas; he served there for five years, later he served in the same capacity in Sacramento for seven years and in the local church he served in three terms ten years, making an aggregate of more than twenty-two years service. When taken from us he was also serving in the capacity of Trustee. He was married in Sacramento at the age of twenty-seven to Miss Sarah Moseley. There were three sons born to them of whom two, William H. and Edwin M. Thompson survive. November 6, 1907 he was again married to Mrs. Helen Glenn, to them was born one daughter Helen, who survives to be a comfort to her widowed mother. He was a Mason and member of the Order of Eastern Star; in the latter Order he was Past Worthy Patron. He was eldest of seven children and leaves two sisters, and two brothers, the other two having already deceased. His testmony gathered from conversations through the years was that he tried to live right each day and not leave large, arrears to be overcome at the hour of death. His faith was a living faith which impelled him to try to do something for humanity and for the cause of Christ. His work was consistent and constant, he took no vacation from service, he figured that each day had its duties and responsibilities and that none could escape them and live. Wednesday, April 14, is the date and Second Baptist Church is the place to hear Miss Mamie Lowe and Atwell Rose in recital. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog (Continuted from page 1) was the lawful wife of George C Cummings, deceased. This decision in favor of Mrs. Mamie Cummings did not, however, erase her troubles so far as the title to this particular property is concerned as there were two deeds of record. Deeds purporting to have been signed by Mrs. Mamie Cummings which appear to have the title. One of these purported deeds, a gift from Mamie Cummings to George C. Cummings, Jr., conveying absolute title to him upon the death of Mrs. Mamie Cummings and a trust deed to Mr. Charles S. Darden for the sum of $700.00 payable at the rate of $30.00 per month. An action was brought in the Superior Court of this County to set aside and cancel the purported deed of Mr. George C. Cummings, and that action was heard in Department 29 of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County, on Monday the 15th day of March, 1926, Mrs. Cummings again prevailed in this action, and the Court affirms to the action the set aside and cancelled the deed and declared it to be null and void; and in summing up the case, the court made the following statement: The Court: Gentlemen, there is some conflict, of course, as to the evidence. That is not the worst part of the case, however. I think the boy that was just on the stand probably was very fair and very honest. There are more ways than one of fixing property so that someone else can have it when you are through with it. It might mean a will in preference to a deed. The defendant it seems to me has had very little interest in the east. In spite of particular questions asked him he couldn't remember anything that took place. He did not remember seeing the plaintiff sign any of these instruments, and remembers nothing that has been said. His evidence was conflicting with that of Mr. Darden in that he states that he said so far as he knew his father was not married to this woman, whereas Mr. Darden stated he told him he was not married. He further states that he may have been divorced from the other wife that he left back in Texas. He states he only desired the matter fixed so that he might share in the estate after Mrs. Cummings' death. In looking over the papers, hearing the evidence, and hearing your own evidence, Mr. Darden, I am rattier reluctant to believe.—I can't believe.—that you were in this matter in good faith. You were either grossly ignorant or else you were purposefully misleading the plaintiff. If the entire case depended upon your evidence, and there had been none from the plaintiff at all, I should be compelled to say that, if in fact the plaintiff did sign these instruments by mark or otherwise, she was led to do so by misrepresentations. I know of no law that would have prevented Mr. George C. Cummings from disposing of the property, even had it been his property, by a will to someone to whom he was not married. As I understood from your evidence, you told her that she was not legally married to this man and that he couldn't dispose of the property to her by will. You are not of that opinion yet, are you? Mr. Darden: I am of the opinion, The Court: Just answer the question: Are you still of the opinion as an attorney that 'a man cannot dispose of his property by will, mentioning his son and giving him $5.00?' Mr. Darlen: I am of the opinion, your Honor, that he cannot dispose of his property so as to exclude the wife from one-half of the community property. The Court: You were not talking about that. You were telling her he couldn't dispose of it to her. There is no evidence of it to community property. All right; that is all. In addition to that, by your own evidence you have shown that you were attempting to represent two parties whose interests were diametrically opposed one to the other. You have a woman here that claimed to be the wife of the deceased. You have a woman who is ignorant so far as being able to read and write and understand the law is concerned. You have a woman who is the beneficiary under a will. You admittedly represented someone who desired to set that will aside. You may have believed he had a right to do so. I rather believe that George Cummings who was on the stand is not to blame for the prelicament in which the plaintiff finds herself; but you should have known better. You should have known that you could not be representing him and at the same time representing her. While you stated that the matter was settled, in the beginning it was settled and he was satisfied, and you had a right to represent her, yet, according to your own evidence, before he was satisfied you already had an instrument drawn; and you were attempting to occupy a position not contemplated to be occupied by an officer of this Court and a practising attorney. I think you were wrong, very wrong indeed. I think that this woman signed this paper under misrepresentation, under more or less threats or advice that was not correct. I doubt if she did sign it. When you yourself say that you merely touched the pen and guided her hand, in all probability you must have actually done the writing. She may have had hold of the pen, but you must have done the writing. I doubt if your notary did anything more than to make acknowledgment of the paper that was handed to her. Judgment will be for the plaintiff. In retrial. Second Baptist Church, Wednesday, April 14, Miss Mamie Lowe and Atwell Rose. Hear Miss Mamie Lowe and Atwell Rose in recital, Wednesday, April 14. Second Baptist Church. LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS At a special meeting of the newly-formed unit of the California League of Women Voters at the W. Y.

It is independent and recommends that its members enroll as voters and affiliate themselves with the political parties, their political education is intended to every woman to join, for every woman is interested in child welfare, education, legal status of women, living costs, social hygiene, women in industry, international co-operation to prevent war and countless other topics of national, state, city and community interest. The next meeting will be held Friday evening, April 2nd, at the New Eagle Hall, 822 S. Central Ave., at 8 o'clock. At this time plans will be completed for a round table discussion of "Know Your Town." Every woman in Los Angeles is urgently requested to attend.

These two lightweights are Young Sam Langford whose real name is Willie Tucker and Jack Thompson. The champion is Fidel La Barba and the contender Clever Sencio. In a way these two matches are similar. Both pairs of opponents have boxed each other once before. And strange to say the decision given at each bout was unsatisfactory. La Barba was given a very unpopular decision over Clever Sencio a couple of months back and about one year ago Johnnie Schiff called the Langford-Thompson match at the old Lyceum Arena a draw. Many thought at that time that Langford's glove should have been raised and Thompson's supporters were just as insistent that Thompson won. Royal Giants Defeat Portland Beavers 3 Games in Row Before Losing to The Olympic Auditorium will be packed next Wednesday night because the fans believe that once and for all the question of who is the best man will be definitely settled. The Thompson Langford match should be a slashing one because Thompson was a bit cautious at the first meeting of these two gladiators because Langford outweighed him several pounds. Thompson has grown into a full fledged lightweight since that time and he will try to put Sam away with that dangerous right. In the year since Thompson and Langford fought, George Tittington, Langford's manager, has changed Young Sam's style of fighting entirely. Where Sam used to box entirely on the defensive he now wades in and swaps punches with his opponent at every opportunity. Five bouts make up the entire Olympic card for Wednesday night. August Gotto and Frankie Grandetta box the semi-windup. Roberta Risdon of Panama and Mickey Biss Box four rounds in the second spot and Bennie Bail and Sailor Carter are the curtain rails.

West Ave. West, Phone EMirepire 9981. Because of the many queries concerning the subject I shall deviate this week to give a few practical ideas on— "The Man in the Case" "The wretch, how could he be so low down and awful as to betray my daughter after I allowed him to come into my home." it has not been so many moons ago that I last heard that statement from the lips of an outraged and deeply wounded mother. Most mothers blame "the man," whether he be 15 or 50, still they cast unqualified blame upon him for the mistake which he or her daughter has made. For many reasons this is not fair. In the first place in the majority of cases the joint mistake and both the girl and boy are guilty. He is weak and she is weak; he is ignorant of the awful consequences and she is uninformed. Both of them are human beings, both face to face with temptation—and unprepared to meet it—and there is nothing for them to do but to fall. There are men who deliberately fool girls. I have known of a number of cases in which the man has promised to marry the girl while he at the same time had his railroad tickets in his pocket/preparatory to leaving town. A very common line of deception is that of the man who asks the girl to "prove her love for him" by granting him this favor. Some men are even sincere in this. God pity the man who is so selfish, so unlearned, so unmindful of the consequences that he can ask a girl to sell her womanhood—the greatest gift which God has given to humanity—so cheaply. And pity him more because he can make his "love" for her the excuse or reason why she should yield to his pleadings. A real man would die before he would permit himself to betray a girl whom he truly loved. He knows that if in a moment of passion he assumes privileges which he is only in welfool that he is taking something away from her whom he loves—that even God himself cannot put back. He knows that real love leads a man to protect and not to despair. His protection to her who needs him is the greatest pleasure of his love. Because he loves her he can protect her, not only against other men but from himself. He may have temptations. Even real men are human. But if his passion is great, his love is even greater and because love has higher claims than passion; because denying the expression of passion when faithfulness to the one whom you love demands it; because all of Gods strength belongs to one who is struggling a right cause; a real man who knows God and the help which He can give will never yield to the temptation to make his love, nor her love, which should be the burst and noblest thing in this world to them—a decoy to their rain. Girls! Whatever else you do, do not give your best gift to the man who wants to betray you "because he loves you." Our men and our boys need help. There are good boys who harm girls. Not because they want to do wrong, but because father and mother have not done their duty by him. He has not been armed with proper knowledge and training himself, and women and so he is truly unprepared to meet life. Such boys need pity more than blame and help more than criticism. Because this need is so imperative, at some time in the future I shall devote one week to Plain Talks to boys and young men. BUSINESS TALK BUSINESS TALK By: DR. T. L. GRIFFITH A PLEA FOR NEW LINES OF BUSINESS I have been requested by a number of persons to begin rewriting articles on matters of business which were discontinued at the time my mind became so occupied with plans for our new church building. I have been assured that my previous articles bore fruit, and that some good resulted from them, which we feel in the life of the city today. The word seems to be abroad that the colored people in Los Angeles have money in savings banks which it requires seven figures to write. There have been very few weeks since we began the erection of our new building that I have not been approached by representatives of various interests to get my influence to have my people invest their money in various speculations. They seem to think that we next millions of dollars and that all I have to do, is to present a matter to members of my church and they will release a lot of their money to any proposition I may present to them. In the beginning I wish to say that I believe the minister's work is in the realm of spiritual instruction and general uplift and that he is a leader in thinking and suggesting matters for the general good. But I do not believe that it is his duty to try to bring pressure to bear upon his members to get them to invest their money in any one proposition. That is their own business. As a minister I am concerned to raise the Lord's money, to foster the various objects of His Kingdom and to raise my voice in the general interest of the people at large. I should be glad to speak for all lines of helpful business. I should be glad to come out a way to my If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened FRATERNAL BULLETIN F. A.

But speaking of the propositions which have come to me it is surprising how stupendous some of them have been. Let me say that I am not opposed to big business. I am in favor of big business. But it seems to me it is better to have several practical lines of business, than it is to launch into propositions which call for the investment of immense sums from large numbers in order to have a proposition to go over. For example Los Angeles needs a large grocery store, a shoe store, a millinium store, a store carrying dry goods for men and women, a bank, support for our men who own small enterprises small factories, and other lines to meet our daily needs as a people. These things can be brought about. Already we have a few corporations which are demonstrating the fact that we can put money together and work together in business. Less than hundred men investing comparatively small sums of money can bring these enterprises into being. I think also that too many of the concerns which start are using rented buildings. I know this is the best that can be done when one person on a few persons put their small moneys together. The buying of real estate gives permanency to a concern. I think our people should study the trend of the population as they plan for their business locations. Then they should buy these locations where and while they are comparatively cheap and let the business grow into stability by the ownership of the land on which the business operates. I believe it will be found practical and helpful if people who can trust each other will put their means together, open some of the lines I have suggested, and others; acquire real property, start on a small scale expecting to expand, learn how to manage a business and the support of the people will be destined to come.
