WOMAN KILLED-MAN INJURED IN CAR CRASH TELEPHONE: VAndike 9244 Pouring into the city of the world-famed Golden Gate, most of them on a special train of twenty coaches, came over 20,000 of our Race's mothers, wives and sisters to convene on matters most vital to the other 200,000 colored women of their organization. By that same standard their convening was vital also not only to the whole race but to the nation itself. For are we not an important integral unit of this same great nation? This was the biennial convention of the National Association of Colored Women and the first convention ever held West of Denver. The meeting was called to order at 3:00 P. M. Sunday, August 1st in the Civic Auditorium it the great head of Bethune-Cookman College, Mrs. Mary McLeed Bethune, holding the president's gavel. Arrangements were in charge of Mrs. Esther Jones Lee of Oakland, first vice-president of the California State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs. The public spirited womanhood and manhood of the Bay Region responded to the invitation of these noble women and filled the vast arena of the auditorium to capacity. On the platform were seated about 200 of our prominent personages. Senator Samuel Shortridge of California was the speaker of the day and gave a very inspiring talk. The presidents of the 41 Federations made 1 minute talks. The words were few but well chosen, and touched upon the rapid growth of this great Association. Among others who were present at the convention were Mrs. Charlotte Hawkins-Brown, founder of the Alice Freeman Palmer Memorial School at Sedalia, North Carolina; Mrs. Helen Curtis, widow of James L. Curtis, former United States Minister and Consul-General to Liberia, who for the past two years has served as a missionary in Monrovia, Liberia, as a representative of the foreign mission department of the African Methodist Episcopal Church; Mrs. W. B. T. W. Williams of Tuskegee Institute, Ala., vice-president of the Alabama State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs. The official entertainment of the delegates and friends was held Saturday night—Reception by the Alameda County League of Colored Women Voiers at the Linden branch of the Y. W. C. A. On Monday evening—Reception tendered by the California State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs at the Municipal Auditorium. Saturday, August 7—Alameda county sight-seeing tour. Sunday, August 8—Visit to the Home of the Aged and Inform Colored People, and a barbecue given by the Fleur de Lis Club of San Mateo, at the clubhouse in San Mateo. After the close of the convention many of the visiting delegates stopped over in the city and many are still here, resting, seeing the sights and being royally entertained before beginning the long journey back East. Taken all together, it was a convention long to be remembered. Entertainment for Nat'l Delegates and Visitors Phone: VANDIKE 9244 VOLUME 40 WOMAN it is reported that when they were sturning from a day's fishing trip, Tuesday August 11th, the automobile in which Mrs. Bottle Page and Mr. George Moore were riding was struck by a railway mail car at 116th St. and Main.

LT. GOVERNOR, C. C. YOUNG FOR GOVERNOR OF CALIFORNIA ENDORSED BY THE EAST- SIDE INDEPENDENT LEAGUE The Eastside Independent League is solidly behind Lieut. Governor, C. C. Young for governor of the State of California, and is making an appeal to every qualified voter in the State to help concentrate the full voting strength on the candidacy of C. C. Young. Lieut. Governor Young is recognized as one of the ablest legislators in the entire country and during his long public career has been a consistent supporter of every measure which meant for constructive legislation, economic and progressive development. He is outspoken in his position favoring the Boulder Dam and All American Canal project which means so much to every property owner in Southern California. He is firm for every measure which stands for the protection of women and children. His principles are all genuinely progressive and he will apply these principles to California government. During a recent visit in the Northern part of the State, representatives of the Eastside Independent League, by thorough canvas, were assured of the high esteem in which Lieut. Governor Young is held by our group. Every public utterance, every official act of his in which the status of the Colored people was concerned he has shown unbiased treatment. On 'our constitutional rights he is absolutely sound and fearless, declaring that "before the law all men are equal". Therefore, let us unite our strength and help California elect the right man for governor of our State; Tuesday, August 31st, primary election. The League has inaugurated an intensive campaign for Lieut. Governor Young and will cover all Southern California with the unanswerable reasons, why it is the duty of our group especially to vote and work for the election of C. C. Young for governor and select him as the choice of the people at the August primar es on August 31st. Woman's Day To Be Observed at First A. M. E.

Found Guilty of Slaying Afflianced White Couple Macon, Ga., Aug. 10 (Rv A. N. P.)—After he had confessed that a white man named Davis had hired him for twenty-five dollars and a gallon of whiskey to kill a white man and his sweetheart here on the night of July 10, Ed. Glover was found guilty here of the double slaying and sentenced to die in the electric chair September 9th. At the coroner's inquest held, after the couple were found slain, a verdict was returned to the effect that the man and woman he dome to their death at the hands of parties unknown. The sheriff of the county, however, continued his investigations which resulted in the arrest of Glover and three white men. It was not long before a confession was forced out of Glover. So far nothing has been done with the white suspect. ```markdown ``` There is no catch in the promise of those in charge of that unprecedented, city famous dramatic novelty, "EASY MONEY" to be seen Monday night, August 23rd at amut Auditorium, when they say that on next Sunday, 12:30 a real shower of money will rain upon Central avenue from 8th to Jefferson street. This will be real money, given away to all spectators along the line of march of the street parade for this now famous three-set play, directed by Mrs. Neoash Bartleson, preceded by two atmospheric prologues, depicted by 160 characters. Supposed by a full well-trained orchestra. "EASY MONEY" GREATEST RACE PROPOGANDA PLAY EVER STAGED IN AMERICA (By: SPECIAL CONTRIBUTOR) I have seen "Easy Money," that drama of which all Los Angeles seems to be talking, at the present time; in one of its rehearsals. VECTOR SAMUEL M. SHORTT by McLeod Bethune, President of the occasion of its opening meeting Right to Left: Senator Shorttic ted to be the greatest gathering the Senator's appearance more than It was significant that there was no demonstration at the trial and no Negroes were molested. Officers are said to have made every effort and taken every precaution to see that there was no race trouble. It is unlikely that Glover will be granted a new trial the testimony at the trial just concluded having shown him to be the real murderer of the man and woman. NEGRO MAY ESTABLISH ALIBI Paducah, Ky., Aug. 10 (A. N. P.)—Afthourth Mrs. Lana Nickson, widow of Mack Nickson, who is said to have been held up and murdered by a Negro on July 18, believes that Roosevelt McChristian, taken in custody as a suspect by police, looks like the man who killed her husband, McChristian may be freed by the possibility of him establishing an alibi that he was not in Paducah on the night of the murder, but in Cairo, IL, for which he had centralized the day before the crime occurred. ```markdown ``` There are many things in the play that impress one. The size of the cast, the unusual combination of music, pantheon and spoken drama, and the beauty of the scenery. But the thing that impressed me most, the thing that makes me actually believe that the advent of this play will mark the beginning of a real reformation in the treatment of our race in this city, is the race propaganda, which it contains. It shows so plainly that a white person seeing it will "remember for all time, some things: first, that what the new Negro wants in America is not charity, but justice, and the opportunity to WORK. That America is injuring herself, when she closes the door to honest opportunity to work in the face of 13,000,000 of her citizens, thus subjecting them to the temptation to get "EASY MONEY" in ways that are dishonest. The drama shows the danger to America of converting thru unjust treatment, her Negro citizens into enemies of their country, instead RIDGE of the National Federation of ing in Oakland, California, Sun- dge; Mrs. Mary McLeod Beth- er ever held in Oakland by any man 7,000 persons were present Prominent Educator and Club Woman To Speak Mrs. Mary Mary McLeed Bethune, President of the National Federation of Colored Women's Clubs and principal of the Dartona, Florida Normal School, will speak at Hamilton M.

Mrs. Bethune is one of America's foremost educators and women's club officers and will have a message of vital interest to womanhood and womanhood. It will be well worth your while to hear her. Services begin promptly at Steven o'clock. Rev. and Mrs. J. D. Gordon enter signed with a dinner Tuesday evening complimenting Mrs. C. C. Winbh and daughters of Atlanta, Ga. of loyal patriotic friends. The injustice and menace to democracy of mob violence is brought out very plainly also. To have there themes so sacred to our hearts, and yet so well known to us handled in such altogether different way, as to hold each spectator spell-bound from the opening entrance to the last act, proves what this play really is. The production is different, novel, daring, yet it gives no offense. The most sensitive member of either race could see the play and go away thoughtful, but not offended. I am truly thankful that the Progo- gama Committee of the Federation of Improvement Associations is staging this play, and if their work in the future is anything like their initial appearance, I believe that colored Los Angeles will see a new day in this city. Well Trained Choirs in Chorus For "Easy Money" The New Hope Baptist Choir, that aggregation of real harmony and technique, under the direction of their talented leader, Mrs. Lucile Brandon, takes the part of the Adult Chorus in the beautiful musical prologue for "Easy Money" while the Westside Children's Chorus under the able direction of Mrs. Neosha Bartleson has been given the role of the Juvenile Chorus. PERCY C. BROOKS MEETS DEATH DUE TO AUTO ACCIDENT Percy C. Brooks, well known builder of Sawtelle, was killed as a result of an automobile accident four miles the other side of San Francisco, on last Tuesday night. The accident occurred by the wheels going off the road at a dangerous turn in the road and before he could right his machine, it struck a telegraph pole and threw him ons, breaking a leg, arm and a fracture of the skull. He was removed to the hospital at San Francisco and died Wednesday evening at 5:00 P. M. The funeral will be held Monday evening at 2:00 P. M. from Leslie and Todd's Undertaking Paarlor, Santa Monica. He is survived by a widow, two daughters and C. W. Brooks, Edwin M. Brooks, P. E. Brooks, Cicero Brooks, his brothers. Battles Cop Who Rescues Him New York, Aug. 9 (By A. N. P.)—Because his wife would do nothing else but dance the Charleston an unidentified man jumped into* the Hudson River at the foot of West 129th street, with suicidal intent. A passing policeman, seeing the man jump, attempted to rescue him. A battle ensued, in which the policeman had to subdue the young man by force. He was later arrested.

W. H. DUNCAN, Pres. Dr. R. S.

Women representing 42 states, a thousand or more, from the East, West, North and South gathered to exchange views on matters effecting the Race. Those conferences are of great benefit to all concerned and when they are approached with intelligence leave their impression on the conference. The woman from Georgia exchange ideas with the woman from Michigan and so from the different sections of the Union where the conditions of life in every phase vary. The subjects of education, Art, Literature, Music and the Domestic Sciences which have a bearing on the welfare and health of communities were ably discussed and many practical suggestions made for their being carried out. Women of international prominence, as the president Mrs. M. M. Bethune; Mrs. Mary Church Terrel, widow of the late Judge Terrel of the District of Columbia; Helen Curtis; Hallie Brown, and numerous women who have won honor on the field of RACIAL SERVICE. Many social events were held in honor of the delegates and visitors and a reception was tended them by the women of San Francisco, headed by Mrs. Irene Rugles, at the California Club house. They were shown the points of interest in the city by automobile groups. The political battle is on. Senator Hiram Johnson lained his broadsdie at the Auditorium Theatre, Oakland. His big guns were trained on the present governor and United States Senator—Richardson and Shortridge no harm—the opposition of the Governor for his "economy fake" and Shortridge because of his stamouth support of the President and his vote on the World Court. It goes without saying that C. C. Young has confidence of the majority of the voters and unless there is some unforeseen turn in the tide, will be nominated at the primaries. It has done senator Shortridge no harm—the opposition of the senior Senator Johnson; his advocacy of Judge Clarke seems to savor too much of "hand picking." We hear a great deal of adverse criticism where Judge Clarke is concerned but as we aforesaid, "The opposition of Senator Johnson is bolstering the cause of Senator Shortridge." Supervisor Welch seems to have the edge in the 5th Congressional District and in all probability will succeed the late Congressman Flaherty. It is a pretty race between Mrs. Florence Kahn, widow of the late Congressman Julius Kahn and Judge Sylvan Lazarus. A casual survey through the 4th District looks as though the Judge might win by a nod from the widow, who is putting up a great fight on a "wet plank." For the beller of Supreme Justice, Thomas J. Lennon will beat the present incumbent, Judge Waste, who is an appointment of the present administration. Like the Governor, Judge Waste, in his legal decisions, seems to see through a glass "darkly." Edward Mabson, attorney-at-law, is seeking the nomination for Assembly in the 80th District. His campaign is being managed by Westley Peoples. A man who cannot discern that JUSTICE should be regulated by an unbiased vision and not be seen through colored glasses is unit for the highest place in the State's Tribunal. Voters who admire "Justice" should study the opinion of California's Chief Justice in Cal. (1811) in the case of the Los Angeles Realty Co. Yes! there is one other who is at present on the bench a Richardson an-appointee, and his name is Hauser, he reaffirmed the decision of Justice Waste. Colored voters cannot afford to support either of those men. Fines Woman For Beating Her Husband Camden, N. J., Aug. 9 (By A. N. P.) —A married woman of this city was fined $10 in Police Court, Monday, because she beat her husband. The woman, Mrs. Jennie Chadwick, 32 years old, of 2715 Harrison avenue, denied beating her husband, but he averred that she not only beat him, but put him out of the house and ordered him to stay out. The woman's husband's statement was corroborated by Policeman Roelf. Judge Cleary informed the woman that she had no right to bear her husband and imposed the fine. clared that in Brazil "Freedom that ligence and a certain amount of parity will give equality."

"Property purchased before the induction was very cheap and practically unfit to produce anything of a commercial value, but as soon as the people were assured of plenty of water and power, property was advanced in value hundreds and in many instances thousands per cent. "I am still a believer in, and an advocate of water and more water and power. Our continued success and prosperity, is sorely dependent upon these vital essentials. "Yes, I am for the Bonds—first, last and all the time. My advice to my friends is to vote "YES" on the Power Bond. Thereby insuring prosperity and expansion. Mr. Sidney P. Dones, of the Sidney P. Dones; Brokerage Corporation and P. Dones Brokerage Corporation and Sub-Divider of Eureka Villa Lands: "An abundance of water in Los Angeles and vicinity is its greatest asset. Without this we could not have attained to the present rank and position among the great cities of our country. If we are to maintain that position we should vote 'YES' on the Power issue, thereby removing all doubt as to the future possibilities of of this our great city." ONE OF L. A. MOST POPULAR CLUB WOMEN AND CIVIC WORKER'S VIEW Mrs. Clara C. Hulbert, 1468 E. 20th St., Los Angeles, Calif., takes this stand: "I was a resident of Los Angeles before the completion of the Owen River Aqueduct. Past experience teaches me that a shortage of water or power at this time would be a calamity unapparalleled in the history of our great city. We must have an abundance of water and electrical energy. Our immediate and distant future is dependent thereon. I urge those who know me and are willing to accept and profit by my experience to vote "YES" on the Power Bond." BUSINESS MEN'S SOCIAL AND RELIGIOUS WORKERS ADVOCATE WATER AND POWER BONDS Rev. J. H.

A LETTER OF CONDOLENCE 128½ North Greenwood, Oakland, CA Tulsa, Oklahoma, August 2nd, 1926. MRS. LONDON DEVOE, Pasadena, California. Dear Madam, Friend, Family and Wife: Your telegram under date of August last, 1926 brings to me the deplorable intelligence of the tragical death of a friend, Christian, gentleman, an American citizen by birth and standing, a proud father and a devoted husband, which occurred in your Pasadena home under gray and golden skies. I say tragic death, because he died young, any death among the young and youthful is tragical. We are all born to die; to an individual journeys all the way from the cradle or from life's brilliant dawn to the twilight of its evening sunset and then shakes off this mortal coil, lies down, using his burdens for a pillow and sleeps time away, we should not grieve, for the aged death is his last and best friend. Your husband was an unusual man, he was my friend, one that never changed, he never consorted with my enemies, after I exhasted my medical skill trying to effect a cure for him, on finding that it was but superhuman in this climate, I advised that he go West. He did so, accumulated wealth and lived a happy, contented life. His life was a model one, he lived for his family and friends and died among those he loved and labored to make happy. You are now a widow, made so by the only true divorce Judge. You have a name to protect, children to labor and live for and children to live for you. Words from a friend, epiphany from the flower, re place the flower which the cycle of time hath clipped from the garden of your life. With pathetic regards, I beg to subscribe myself as your friend. Very respectfully, M. M. WAKEFIELD, M. D. DON'T FORGET THE WILSHIRE Olympic Club will have their Mil-Silver Shirt Waist Bal, August 27th, at 15th and Main Majestic Dancing Academy.

PASSENGER - FREIGHT EXPRESS NOTE OF REGRET The members of the Achievement Social Club deeply regret the death of the late Miss Ruth Smith. Miss Smith was elected as our Secretary on the first of this year. Her efficiency as such was highly appreciated by the entire club. It was through her winning personality that she successfully weilded her influences through the entire membership of more than three clubs as well as other organizations. Her trend of sociality was very conspicuous. *Miss Smith will be missed greatly by each member of the club. The Achievement Club also regret not having been notified of her death until now, therefore we were unable to participate in the funeral services. We hope, however, that in the future the club will be given ample notification. CORNER STONE BAPIST Cor. 11th and Naomi Sts. REY. M. J. HIGSAN. Pastor. Sunday School.....9:30 A. M.

Woods, wife of the General Manager of The Pullman Co., passed away last week after a lengthy illness. The Porters of this district extend their sympathy to Mr. Woods in his recent bereavement; Mr. C. Roth is in San Francisco during Mr. Wood's absence. The suspense is now over and it is at last out. A rumor has a good, solid foundation has it that Mr. Arthur will be here about the 15th of the month, to take the office made vacant by the retirement of Mr. C. Lincoln as Supt. of Los Angeles, Mr. Arthur is at present Supt. at Kansas City. --- Mr. C. Lincoln, former District Supt. of Los Angeles was seen watering his lawn last week by the writer at his home on Hobart Blvd. Mr. Lincoln apparently is perfectly satisfied at his new occupation and looks ten years younger. -00- Coming Soon! Upton's Matrimonial Chart. -00- W. White is off on account of a bad knee. -00- DINING CAR STEWARD MAKES GUN PLAY A dining car steward operating between Los Angeles and El Paso on train 108-104 drew his revolver on Porter W. Wortham, because he turned him in to the train conductor for refusing to serve him with food. What might have been a regular will West play was averted by the cool headiness of Porter Wortham who refused to continue the argument. You will taught when you read Upton's Matrimonial Chart. 1 J. Carter No. 2 has been burning Central Avenue up lately with a new gray suit. A. NOEL'S ORCHESTRA HOLDS REHARSAL Alonzo Noel of this district, who undertook to organize a Pullman Porters' Band here, but could not get the proner support, has turned his efforts towards an orchestra which is meeting with great success. Mr. Noel who is a born musician would not rest until he had assembled together harmony of some kind, a successful rehearsal was held at his home last week in South Los Angeles. The strains of sweet music soon attracted nearby neighbors and residents, and the Professor's book is fast filling up with dates for his entertaining outfit for social events to be held in the near future, and as soon as his orchestra is completely perfected. Followup is the list of those playing and their instruments: A. Noel, Mgr, and leader Saxophone, Clarinet; J. Perry Violin, Banjo; E. Meyers, Saxophone; J. M. Moulder, Trombone; C. B. Willis, Cornet; C. Mangum, Piano J. A. Carter, Drums; and they're RED HOT. MR. PERRY PARKER ON WAY TO LOS ANGELES Mr. Perry Parker. Grand Chairman of the P. P. B. A. is on his way to Los Angeles to spend a short vacation with his wife, Mrs. Parker, who is here visiting a sister at the present time. It is expected he will deliver an address to Local No. 1 while here. There is a bulletin post in the Chicago Northern District, stating that Porters will five years' experience, can recommend an职位 a job with the company. Heretofore a porter could not recommend an applicant. EXTRA BOARD DLL The Extra Board in Los Angeles, instead of improving seems to be getting worse from recent reports of men who are unfortunate to be bucking it; much bumping has been taking place, and regular line men who have seldom warmed the extra bench, are familiar faces in the sign out office, where Mr. V. V. Ross reigns supreme. Joe Lee was bumped sky high by J. Minter, and has not found a place to land yet, but has been seen casting longing eyes toward the coast pool; should he make up his mind to locate there, Joe Holmes will be looking for another run, as he is the youngest man in the pool at the present time. J. Carter No. 1 who has been bucking the extra board for six years, says it's tough, and when Carter says it's tough—it's TOUGH! A war on all single men has been declared: get your dope from Upton's Matrimonial Chart, Coming Soon! W. V. MECALL HOME AFTER VISIT SOUTH Porter W. C. McCall has returned home after an extensive visit in Atlanta with his Mother, and while there he made a trip to Miami, Fla. He arrived back home in Los Angeles just in time to learn that the boys had bumped him. Tough Luck, Mc. H. SPRINGER PASSES AWAY Mr. H. Springer, one of the old timers in railroad circles, Pullman and Southern Pacific, passed away in the general hospital last week at San Francisco. H. H.

Weeks has been taken to the hospital, on account of illness. -00- Save you laughs for Upton's Matrimonial Chart. -0- You will laugh, and you will giggle when you read it in the Eagle. -0- SAN DIEGO RED CAPS COML TO FRONT The San Diego Red Caps under the able leadership of head Red Cap, B.

Rease says, if his men cannot be first they shall not be last. -0- Miss Fredonia Hunt of Galveston, Tex., is visiting her cousins, Mr. and Mrs. Batise Bee, 21 Sixteenth St., San Diego. 0 MAIDS Maid Sadie Reed Got Off in Chicago last week and it is rumored that the fair one will be carrying a Mrs. before her name when she returns to work; Maid Tenie Upton doubled out of Chicago in her place. TRAMP STEALS MAID'S UNIFORM A certain Maid upon retiring on the train hung her uniform up in a vacant compartment for the night, when she awoke next morning she was surprised to learn that a tramp had worn it all night, stealing a ride and evading detection in the disguise. The writer will take another trip East on the 19th of August to Detroit, Mich, leaving on the crack Los Angeles Limited, and if the intense heat does not burn him up to a crisp while there, will return about the latter part of the month. The Matrimonial Chart is being prepared to run while he is gone. Much time has been spent in gathering valuable data for this article, and it is needless to say that enough will be said in THE MATRIMONIAL CHART to hold the interest of the faithful readers of hTe Railroad Clatter until his return. 0— Maid Blanche Mattison has at last fallen a victim to the bob hair klan, she held out as long as possible, but at last she fell. TO THE GIRLS Buy the Eagle every week; the Railroad Clatter knows your sheik. Miss Carlotta M. Ward has been the house guest of Mr. and Mrs. H. E. Curtis of E. 4th St. and many social affairs have been given in her honor, including many motor trips, theatre parties and dinners. Mrs. Emmit Cleveland on Morgan street gave a Radio Party for Miss Carlotta M. Ward of Brooklyn, N. Y. the past week. PROMINENT DRUGGIST VISITS CITY Dr. Wm. Kyle, Tulisa's leading druggrist in company with his mother, Mrs. Lou Kyle and son, William Jr., and nephew, Cleo H. Ham, motored the southern route t Los Angeles where they are spending a delightful vacation with Dr. and Mrs. Thomas W. Kyle on 5th street. American Woodmen to Hold Mammoth Log Rolling The Los Angeles Camps of the eeAmerican Woodmen, commonly referred to as "The Giant of Negro Fraternals will hold a mammoth Log Rolling and "Feast in the Forest." Friday night, August——at the Masonic Hall, Central avenue. The mammoth Log Rolling is the culmination of the Silver Jubilee Membership Campaign which was conducted by the Los Angeles camps from April 1st to June 30th, under the direction of Ben H. Graham, Supervisor for the State of California. The campaign in Los Angeles was a huge success, according to Mr. Graham, and proves conclusively the growing popularity of this millionaire society which boasts of employing more workers than all other fraternals. The first camp in the state of California was organized in Los Angeles in September, 1922. The recent membership campaign has brought the membership in Los Angeles to more than fifteen hundred. Camps have also been organized at San Diego, Santa Barbara, Oakland, and other are now being organized at Pasadena Riverside. At the Log Rolling to be held August more than three hundred new members will receive the obligation and instruction in Woodcraft. Mr. Graham was assisted in the ceremonial by Deputies J. E. Rector, H. K. Watkins and local officials. Following the Log Rolling the Feast in the Forest will be observed. The following persons are expected to take the obligation; Walter Bradley; Isabell Dent; Sadie Dalton; William Dent; Zelma Dillingham; Albert Gibson; Norma Jordan; James Ledwidge; Jesse Lewis; Almeda Loyd; Samuel Loyd; Effe Owens; Cornelia Rhoden; Julia Rozeile; Vina Smart; Charlie Smart; Enathio Smith; Ida B.

NATIONAL FEDERATED CLUB WOMEN Los Angeles welcomes the presence in the city of returning delegates from the recent National meeting held in Oakland, California. We feel that even their passing presence will be of immeasurable benefit and give both hope and inspiration not only to our women, but to the men as well. Indeed the women from all over the land made a lasting impression in their recent gathering, and the story of the great event will not be soon forgotten. Therefore on behalf of the people of this city we indeed extend to them a sincere and royal welcome REAL PRODUCTION The turnout for the dedication a furniture factory is to be erect members of our group, while good it should have been.

This brings us to the proposition so often told that when real constructive situations are at hand the Negro can generally be found looking out the window. We are firm believers in production and right here with the Hefin Company blazing the trail to real endeavor along this line of effort, it is a reflection should we fail to give to their efforts a fitting send-off, with both moral and financial support. The ground breaking of most any church edifice would prove indeed a great day in Zion and just why the launching of a real factory with its possibilities of furnishing work for thousands and to prove our boasted capacity, to do things, would fail to attract to the extent that it should be an enigma to us. Factories! why, they are just the things that we stand in need of, if we ever expect to play our part in the mighty march of progress. We sincerely hope that when the ground is broken for this most laudable effort that the people will have realized the opportunity and give to the same the consideration which it really and truly deserves. GET AWAY FROM SMALL TOWN "STUFF" "If I have pleased you, tell other; If I have not pleased you, tell me." This saying, while it has a very grave logical meaning has become a cheap cafe slogan, but we suggest that some of our greater organizations put it into practical demonstration. Such organizations as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People may be the medium through which Jim Crowism is eradicated. It may awaken the conscience of the American nation to the extent that It will recognize the fact that "all men are created equal" and it may open wide the door of industrial opportunity for the Negro youth, but what will it all amount to if the Negro has neither sympathy nor respect for one another? Take a casual survey of Los Angeles with its fifty or sixty thousand population;—What have we that stands for big business?—NOTHING. We have individuals in this community, of our group, who have intelligence, initiative and are willing to pay the price of hardships to succeed, but whenever he or she lifts their head with hope for the future, some sophisticated individual whose only excuse for being popular rests on the fact that he or she has always and at all times set a high price on their own social standing, hurls a stone of malice destined to discourage or depreciate, and the rest of the group either applauds or sits supinely by And so we say, again, and we firmly believe that the Negro will never amount to much as a group, race or nation until the Black people of all shades and hues realize that it matters not how strewn with prejudice his path; how charged with discrimination the future his only hope rests in the fact that he must stop long enough to have a sympathetic understanding with his own. In civic, social, political or religious life, the Black man is divided—He does not stand for anything concrete—and the white man knows it—he has no secretes that he himself respects. Must Lay Foundation For Future If the Negro hopes to fill a place in the economic world he must first build from within, and in order to do this he will have to tear out of self the old belief of doubt, fear, hatred, and superstition.

We not only advise our readers to vote for this particular bond issue which will appear on the primary ballot, but urge all others to do likewise. Every citizen who has the prosperity of the city at heart, should both vote and work for the Municipal Water and Power Bonds, as it will appear on the ballot at the primaries August 31st. It has been said, without successful contradiction, that in order to meet the constantly growing needs of the city, we must get both water and power from the Colorado River. But it will require several years to construct the gigantic works necessary to bring the Colorado River water and power to Los Angeles. In the meantime our city continues to grow with an - If You Fail To Read The CALIFORNIA EAGLE You May Never Know It Happened political camer sort of grafter things from front of, or in start right out faced in the latters, is accused rates about the d in hand with ever-increasing demand for both water and power. It is therefore imperative in this situation that we develop the remaining water and power resources of the Owens River Acqueduct to their fullest extent and provide increased distribution facilities, and it is for this purpose that the present bond issue is sought. It is a sound business proposition. The $10,000,000 asked for by the Water Bureau will enable the city to complete the purchase of approximately 80,000 acres in Owens Valley, and to develop an additional 10,000 miners inches of water. In purchasing these lands the city is paying the Inyo County ranchers very good prices—about four and one tenth times the assessed valuation. This bond issue will also provide for increased storage and distribution facilities. These bonds do not in any way affect the taxpayer, since all interest and annual principal charges are paid entirely from revenue derived from the sale of power and light. As stated before, there is no danger that the bureau cannot meet these charges for it has not only met them since February, 1922, but in addition to that has earned a surplus of over $14,000,000 which has gone back into the system in improvements. In fact th eincreased facilities will enable us to increase our surplus earnings while at the same time to continue to serve the public at the remarkably low commercial and domestic rate which has been enjoyed for many years. Therefore we must take cognizance of the fact that the bonds mean to the future of this great city and join in with the march of progress and support them. If reprisals must be made on any official there will be many opportunities further down the road, but most assuredly this is not the time nor place, when we would be doing the thing which means many steps backward in the march of progress for all the people. Anti-Lynching Bill Supported By Another LIE NAILED Washington, D. C., July 15, 1926. Hon. L. C. Dyer, House of Representatives, Mv Dear Mr. Dyer: I read a statement made by you at the seventeenth annual session of the N. A. A. C. P, in which you stated that the Republican members of the Judiciary committee was responsible for the defeat of the Anti-Lynching Bill. I do not know to whom you refer, whether one or all of the Republican members of the Committee. But there M. was one member of the committee who stood first, last and always for the passage of the bill and that member was Senator Samuel M. Shortridge of California. When the Anti-Lynching bill was first referred to the Senate Judiciary Committee, a number of Republican members refused to handle it including Senator Borah, and they finally placed it on the shoulders of Senator Shortridge who never faltered in his effort either in the committee or on the floor of the Senate to have the bill passed. In that battle Senator Shortridge fought single-handed both in the committee and on the floor of the Senate, losing many friends, and gain may eemies, but he stood up and fought for what he believed was right. I have known of your good work in behalf of the colored people and I have always appreciated your effort in that direction and trust that you will continue the good work. I am, very truly yours. R.

Among the more important planks in his platform, Counellman Barnes promises, if elected, to use his influence in having County funds appropriated to help in the construction and maintenance of major traffic arteries, storm drains and sanitary sewers throughout the city. The gigantic First Street Improvement Project is one of those which would be benefitted. FAVORS HIGH DAM Barnes thinks that the County Supervisors should take the lead in working for the early consummation of the great scheme which will bring Colorado River water to Los Angeles, and he favors, the construction of storage dams all along the route of the proposed acqueduct, which would also proved flood control. The submission of bond issues to the people, for all public structures, is another thing advocated by Barnes, whose candidacy is endorsed, by a formidable array of civic organizations and industrial companies.

Dockweiler Hurls Bomb in Democratic Machinery Los Angeles, Aug. 12.—Launching his campaign for the Democratic Senatorial nomination by declaring that the California Democracy is threatened with disruption because of the present contest within the party, Isidore B. Dockweiler, national committeeman for California, at a meeting of Democrats here today exposed an attempt, which, he declared, has for its purpose the alienation of a small group for the united party. Although Dockweiler's speech avoided U.S. ISIDORE R. DOCKWEILER the use of McAdoo's name, it was regarded by Democrats here as an aceptance of the challenge to the Democratic party by the McAdoo faction in its attempt to control the state organization. In his address, Dockweiler reviewed the history of the Democratic party in California and of the present I THE HOME OF THE MAYFIELD MUSEUM A RACE ENTERPRISE, QWNED AND CONUCTED BY REPRESENTATIVE CITIZENS.

He stated that while he was in the East a conference of Democratic leaders was held at Fresno, and that following the refusal of former Senator James D. Phelan to become a candidate again the conference unanimously requested Dockweiler to accept the party leadership for the campaign. This, explained Dockweiler, was the same group from which McAdoo accepted California's support in his attempt to secure the presidential nomination in 1924. The conference, continued Dockweiler, had but one idea and that was to serve the party. No attempt was made to consider turning the Democratic party in the state over to any individual for use in 1928, for it was considered that no candidate is sufficiently in the forefront at this time to merit the consideration of any political body. The sole idea was to secure men capable of carrying the party standard in the present campaign. Dockweiler, who is national committeeman for California, is a former State Normal School Trustee, and Indian Commissioner under President Wilson, and was a candidate for the Lieutenant overworship on the same ticket in 1902 when the late Franklin K. Lane rand for governor. Dockweiler, whose home is in Los Angeles, is the only twenty-seven years.

LOS ANGELES, CALIF., AUGUST 13, 1926 Baby Gans Shows Rapid Strides To Top Under New Manager Many strange little things happen in the realm of the padded ring as any other game; things that have their effect on the future. So with Baby Joe touted as the next lightweight champion of the world. He has always been a game, willing, little fighter, ready at any time to fight any one he was lucky enough to get on with, but his matches at times seemed to be too few and far between. Then at best they were only semi-windups which meant lots of fighting and little money. One night., hile Jimmy Kalty, a well known fight manager was at Wilmington with one of his fighters, he learned that Gans was not getting as many bouts as a fighter of his caliber deserved. So he wired that same night to Fresno, and got a bout on for the well-pleased boy for the following week. This was about six months past and was his first main bout. The crowd went wild over his classy style, and from then on his way was made. Soon after, his work was noticed by his present manager Mr. Lichenstein who looked him over and saw the championship possibilities in him and took over full charge of his ring affairs. He is a fighter very easy to manage as he is a faithful trainer and needs only a chance to fight to show his stuff. Every fight since Mr. Lichenstein has had charge of him has been a big one, and he won them all mostly by knockouts, and now comes his last step toward the championship'.

AUGUST 31ST 1926 RETAIN CROWNS New York, Aug. 8.—Grease paint and surgery may give the United States two new tennis champions this year. Just as William T. Tilden's long rule of the national men's singles is threatened, so will Helen Wills have difficulty in defending her title of women's singles champion at Forest Hills next week. What the stage did to Tilden's game that appendicitis operation may have done to that of Miss Wills. The Californian was far from her old self at Seabright. Her encouraging showing at East Hampton does not weigh in the balance when her difficulties and eventual defeat at the New Jersey resort are considered. "Big Bill" has until September 13 before he must defend his title, but the women's national singles championship starts August 16. WILLS HA TROUBLE Miss Wills not only lost to Miss Elizabeth Ryan at Seabright, but had difficulties, unusual for her, in winning earlier matches. Obviously, she is not at her best, and quite as obvious, Miss Ryan and some of the others are going to force her to be at her best or surrender her championship. PACIFIC COAST LEAGUE W. L. Pet.

There will be more said about the trip in the next issue of this paper.—Contributed. HARRY LEVETTE A husband of two years' happy married life learns that a newly-acquired friend of his wife is very indiscreet, divorced herself and is running around with a married man. He objects to any further association with her and after a stormy objection on the young wife's part, she agrees to neither see her nor to be involved. He considers the incident closed until months later he sees a letter written to wife from this dear friend who is on a vacation trip in the mountains. The letter, seemingly one of many, ends with, "Give that husband of yours my regards (smiles!!)!" That one word, "smiles"—but it proved that wife had ungratefully permitted him to be ridiculed and now they too are far apart. One of life's little things. She stands at 5th and Broadway calmly, silently. She is neatly dressed, well built, with strong looking, healthy body. Her brown face is round, complexion soft and clear; still she stands while other, women jostle each other to gaze in the windows at the latest creations. Strange, she isn't window-shopping too with the gay throng, blest as she is with the health that brings happiness. But ah, she turns this way, revealing her sightless eyes. Stone blind!

Meanwhile the crestfallen visitor has quietly goes to a sky-scraper office building down town, emerging later with a smile on his face and a hand full of confidences. Upstairs, the head of a great corporation in a magnificent suite of offices, a dozen girls rattling --- If You Fail To Read--THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE--You May Never Know It Happened typewriters, a dozen phones jingling, messengers coming and going, turns to a friend and remarks: "Say, that Colored fellow who was up here just now has a wonderful proposition, I just put $25,000 behind it and know it will double that a year after we get started.—One of Life's little things.

IN THE REALM OF HIGHER THINGS IN THE REALM OF HIGHER THINGS By: DANIEL W. CHASE (For the Associated Negro Press) Alexander C. Rogers and C. Luckeyth Roberts, authors of "My Magnolia," the new colored musical comedy at the Mansfield Theatre, have written a Negro operetta tentatively called "Sister-Scream." NEGRO FOLK SONGS PLEASE NEGRO FOLK SONGS PLEASE LONDON AUDIENCES The American contingent on the London stage seems to increase with the summer season. Dixie music is now well to the fore in London. Elma Thomas and her accompanist, Constance Piper, have returned from Germany and France and are giving a second series of concerts, in which Negro spirituals and plantation songs make up most of the program. The Emory University Glee Club of Atlanta, Ga., is also signing Southern melodies in London. "MY MAGNOLIA" OPENS At the opening of "My Magnolia" Monday night the audience presented quite as picturesque a spectacle as anything on the other side of the foot- lights. It always does at these Negro reviews, where any single row of seats gives a series of alternating white and bronze profiles picked out in the shadows like a smudgy sketch by Bellows. Among the spectators of the players' own race was Julius Bledoe, the Negro baritone, whose debut at Aeolian Hall three years ago was a cheering surprise at the dreary end of a fagged out music season. In the lobby Mr. Bledoe confided that he was rehearing a role in "Deep River," by Laurence Stallings and W. Frank Harling which represents Arthur Hopkins' first venture into the operatic field. Mr. Bledoe added with gusto that he is playing the part of a Voodoo King. We have never heard Mr. Bledoe in his capacity, but if he can put into his Voodoo cadences half of the eerie undertones he brings to "Water Boy" his engagement is one of the most, promising features of this more than promising production.

This is said to have been going on for several months until Chief Inspector Kline and C. D. Lowe trapped him with two marked letters. DAILY PAPER FANS NEGRO VOTE CON- TROVERSY Chicago, Ill., Aug. 9 (By A. N. P.) The Chicago Tribune has taken the initiative this week in questioning a number of senators and senate aspirants relative to their attitude toward suffrage of the Negro in states where he is not permitted to vote. The Tribune action is felt to have been inspired by a speech of Senator Borah in Atlanta, Ga., who characterized the effort to repeal the Volstead Act as an attempt to nullify the Eighteenth Amendment. The Tribune wants to discover how many senators there are who feel that there should be some such act as the Volstead to enforce the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments. Negroes throughout the country should be interested to know how their senators feel on this matter. According to the Tribune, Gov. John J. Blaine, contesting for the seat now occupied by Senator Lenroot from Wisconsin, said in response to the inquiry, that congress should enact legislation that will compel southern states to carry out the intent of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments. "These two amendments should be enforced and observed," Gov. Blaine declared. "Congress should carry out the duty to enforce these amendments by appropriate legislation, and such duty, in my opinion, is mandatory. I shall vote for legislation to make these amendments effective." Senator Lenroot was less definite. He wired in reply to a long-distance telephone inquiry; "Could not answer your question without knowing the law and the facts in a particular case. The Fourteenth Amendment covers many subjects, and, of course, any state law in conflict with it is invalid." Subsequently, a message asking a further statement was unanswered by Senator Lenroot. Senator James A. Reed, Missouri Democrat in charge of the Senate's slush fund investigation, expressed himself as being against any more force laws to prop up amendments to the constitution of the United States: "Let the South take care of its own problem," Segator. Reed said. "If we have any more force law, well only have more trouble and we're having trouble enough with the force laws we have already. "The late Senator Lodge of Massachusetts was the author of the last force bill and he made a vigorous effort to pass it. Some southern senators strenuously opposed it and in doing so revived some of the fever that entailed in the carnet bag days after the Civil War. Senator Lodge told us a short time before his death that those things should be forgotten and that he realized his force bill was a mistake. "White people and colored in the South seem to be getting along very satisfactorily and the Negroes I have talked to seem to be pretty well satisfied with things as they are. We don't want any more force laws." Southern senators in Washington, according to the Tribune, refused to be quoted, but expressed the belief that Gov. Blaine would be unable to accomplish anything along the line of enforcing the Negro amendments. They were of the opinion that the governor was talking for campaign effect in Wisconsin rather than with any serious idea of obtaining action. Some senators were puzzled to know just how Gov. Blaine, through any senate action would be able to bring suffrage to the colored citizens of the South. They point out that the Supreme Court of the United States has upheld the constitutionality of laws of southern states which provide conditions under which the right of franchise may be exerted. Such state laws have been upheld, provided the same conditions were made to seem to apply, to all. The Republican Senator Reed from Pennsylvania, it will be recalled, threatened at one time to propose a provision which would prohibit the seating of a senator from a state where Negroes were not permitted to vote. His proposal failed to receive serious consideration. It is significant that Senator La-Follette, Wisconsin, a friend and political colleague of Gov. Blaine, declined to express himself on the subject. Negro leaders in this city have pointed out that Negro voters should keep strict tab on how their senators feel on this matter with a view of holding them to "strict accountability" when the time comes.

J., Aug. 9, (By A. N. P.)—Lewis Brown, 88-year-old civil war veteran, "likes his lady friends young and his liquor old," his wife told justice of the Peace, John O'Grady, Monday when she appeared to charge her aged mate with desertion and non-support. Brown was committed to the county jail for lack of $500 bail. "He just won't stay home," was the plaint of Mrs. Brown, who is 68. "We have been married now more than 40 years and maybe he is tired of me. He likes these young flappers and he likes his liquor, and all he has given men during the last year is $2.50 out of his $75-a-month Civil Pension." Brown and his wife live apart. His wife told Justice O'Grady she believed a cell was about the best place for her matrimonial adversary until he loses some of his "young ideas."

BROWN Chicago, Ill., Aug. 9.—From a recent survey of The Douglass National Bank of Chicago it was found that the institution is efficiently and conservatively managed and has shown unprecedented growth among the business enterprises owned and operated by Colored people. LARGEST BANK OWNED BYCOL ORED PROPEL In point of resources, the bank is now the largest bank in the United States owned by colored people. At the close of business, June 30, 1926, the resources were more than one million, nine hundred thousand dollars. This represents an increase of over a million, two hundred and fifty thousand dollars since June 30, 1923. The institution has a capital and surplus of $235,000.00. Ten thousand dollars of this surplus was added out of earnings during the first six months of this year. The two thousand shares of the capital stock of the bank are owned by more than 250 stockholders, located in many sections of the county. These stockholders have already begun to receive dividends and it is evident that those who own the stock have an unusually good investment. FORTY-FIVE THOUSAND DE- POSITORS IN FOUR YEARS More than 45,000 persons and institutions have opened accounts in The Douglass National Bank within the past four years. Among these depositors are included the city of Chicago, Cook County (the county in which Chicago is located), and the State of Illinois. The Bank is also a depository for Postal Savings Funds of the Federal Government. National, Religious and Fraternal organizations located throughout the country have found it of great advantage to carry deposits in this Bank. In addition to the many thousands of depositors who live in the State of Illinois, the institution has, at the present time, 2,368 out-of-town depositors, who reside in twenty-eight other states of the Union. The Bank is, therefore, doubly Nationay—National in that it was created under an act of Congress, and National in that an increasingly large number of persons and organizations located throughout the nation are using the Bank because of its safety, efficiency and convenience in handling their banking business by mail. The Bank conducted a campaign for new business from May 17th to July 17th, 1926. During these two months more than forty-five hundred new accounts were opened. Approximately twenty-five million dollars have been handled through the bank within four years with absolute safety and satisfaction. Most of this amount represented the funds of colored people. The support that the institution is getting is brought out by the facts that on June 30, 1923, the deposits were $262,709.46; on June 30, 1924, they were $86,177.06; June 30, 1925, they had reached over a million and on June 30, 1926, they had climbed to $1,391,604.53. The business is growing so rapidly that the Directors will be compelled to take over more banking space within the next few weeks. OFFERS COMPLETE BANKING SERVICE The institution offers a complete general banking service. In addition to its Commercial and Savings Departments, it maintains an efficient collection department for both local and out-of-town items; and sells traveler's checks negotiable throughout the civilized world. The safe deposit vaults are modern in every detail. They are made of torch proof, drill proof, and explosion proof steel. The thickness of the vault door alone is eighteen inches and weighs eighteen tons. It is equipped with two combination locks and four time locks. The bank is a member of the Federal Reserve System and issues its own money known as National Bank Notes, bearing the signatures of its President and Cashier, both of whom are colored men. BANK BUILDING IS THE PROPERTY OF THE BANK The Douglass Natoinal Bank Building is owned by the bank. The building is a modern four-story reinforced concrete and brick structure, occupying one-half block at the corner of State Street and Thirty-sixth Place. The building is conservatively valued at three hundred thousand dollars. The first floor is used for the banking rooms and for stores. The fourth and part of the third floors are occupied by the Overton Hygienic Manufacturing Company and the remaining space is used for offices. The building is well financed and managed and every available space is always in demand. OPERATED ENTIRELY BY COL- ORED PERSONNEL The directors and other personnel of the institution are all colored. The Directors are men of long experience and training who have made a success in their several fields of endeavor. The officers are: Anthony Overdtn, President; Alderman R. R. Jackson, Vice-Pres.; Rev. John W. Robinson, Vice-Pres.; Arthur J. Wilson, Cashier and Theodore A. Roane, Assistant Cashier; Atty. S. A. T-Watkins is Chairman and Dr. Edward S. Miller is Secretary of the Board of Directors. The other members of the Board are: State Repreperative Kerney, Repreperative H. Branham T. H. Sawyer D. Dr. John H. Lewis, Atty.

The use of domestic water in Los Angeles, Mr. Muhlholland pointed out, practically has doubled during the past five years. This amazing increase, it was shown, indicates that this city's population also has been doubled during the time period of time. In order to keep pace with this ever increasing demand for water service, it is necessary for the Water Bureau, Mr. Mulholland stated, to develop its existing resources to their fullest extent and provide more extensive facilities for water storage and its distribution to an ever growing number of consumers. It is to carry forward this work that proceeds from the $10,000,000 water bond issue are to be used, it was explained. This bond issue, together with an $11,000,000 power bond issue to help finance additional hydro-electric power development and facilities on the municipal power system, will be submitted to the voters at the August 15th meeting. Since both the Water Bureau and the Power Bureau are self-sustaining municipal utilities, it was pointed out the voting of these two bond issues will in no way increase taxes. All charges on the water and power bonds will be paid out of earnings of the Water and Power Bureaus. Referring to the constantly increasing volume of domestic water required in Los Angeles, Mr. Mulholland explained that for the fiscal year which ended June 30, 1921, the average daily consumption of domestic water here amounted to approximately 76,000,000 gallons; while for the fiscal year ended June 30 of this year, the average daily consumption had jumped to approximately 140,000,000 gallons. Water being used by Los Angeles people during the summer months shows an even greater increase, it was pointed out. During the summer months of the year 1920-21 the average daily consumption was 82,000,000 gallons; while in the summer months of the year 1925-26 the average daily use had mounted to approximately 165,000,000 gallons, slightly more than a 100 per cent increase in five PHONES: EMquire 9681 Harold B.

GAMBLE REAL ESTATE - FIRE INSURANCE NOTARY PUBLIC CITY BROTHERS Careful surveys and calculations, it was stated, reveal that the consumption of domestic water in Los Angeles amounts to 125 gallons per capita per day. Each year for the past five years Los Angeles people have been increasing their daily consumption of domestic water 12,000,000 gallons over the daily consumption of the previous year. This indicates a population increase of 100,000 a year, it was stated. The twelve million gallon increase in the daily demand for water when applied on a yearly basis discloses that this city's domestic water requirements are increasing at the rate of approximately four and one-half billion gallons annually. To give some idea of the tremendous quantity of water required each day to meet the domestic water needs of Los Angeles, it was pointed out that if all the water used each day, during the present season, was collected in Pershing Square, it would cover that city block to a depth of 124 feet.

Realizing that there could be no better opportunity to reward the zeal, interest and integrity of those officers who had shown an unusual amount of untiring efforts in making Court Solomon the greatest fraternal order in the Forrestic Circle, High Chief Ranger, Smith, in a voice vibrating with emotion presented Past Chief Ranger, Claude G. McDonald, with deserving credentials emblematic of the wonderful services that he has rendered to this fraternal organization. Following this presentation, Past Chief Ranger, Buell A. Thomas was made the proud recipient of a gold ring mounted with symbolic letters of the court. Fitting tributes were also paid to financial secretary Charles R. Isum and others for their wonderful display of brotherly interest. Remarks were heard from representatives of Court Intangible and Court Mt.

It would be wholly unfair not to take advantage of this opportunity to mention the meritorious showing of the Forresters "Wonder Band." This aggregation of men and women who only eight months ago knew little or nothing about music are today proving themselves a contemporary of the city's leading bands. The phenomenal accomplishments of this great band must just be credited to the super-inguency of Prof. John C. Spikes, who as organizer and director of this wonderful band cannot be given too much credit. After the general routine of bus- iness had been consummated the visiting officials, guests and brothers retired to the antechamber of the hall where enjoyable refreshments were had by all.
