Disgraceful Conduct At
22nd St. Swimming
Pool
Two important and very surprising
reports were made to the Progressive
Federation of Improvement Associations of California at the meeting at
Eagle Hall on Sunday, September
12th last.
Mr. Saffold, chairman of the School and Playgrounds Committee, made report on the 22nd St. swimming pool after an impartial investigation which has been the policy of the Association as it endeavors to combat the evils in the actions of our people as well as those in treatment of us by the whites. To this end he stated that the conduct of the girls and boys aging from 15 to 25 at the pool were simply disgraceful; bad language; uncouth conduct and frequent fights, causing the arrival of police at times. This was reported to him by some of the neighbors. He reported also that the conditions at the 15th St. School at 15th and Santa Fe were very deplorable. Dr. Gordon gave a talk on Gordon Manor explaining the necessary coordinate steps to forestall condemnation of that or any tract. Saturday night, September 18th the Program Committee will meet at Christian Tavern and the regular meeting will be held Sunday at Eagle Hall. Mrs. Morris presided over Sunday's meeting with Mrs. T. Johnson, Secretary, and a fair-sized crowd present considering the many counter meetings. Dr. Ruth Temple was also present giving an interesting talk and helping in perfection of plans for the future.

Dr. Gordon in Address Sunday Afternoon
On next Sunday afternoon at Eagle Hall, Dr. Wilbur C. Gordon will address an open meeting of the Neighborhood Improvement Associations on the question of the Mattoon Act, an act, which if passed, will work a greater injustice upon our pace than any other law, passed in the United States to date. Also every phase of the gross injustice of the proposed condemnation of Gordon Manor and the steps which we as a race must take to check this condemnation will be dismissed by Dr. Gordon. Every thinking colored man and woman in Los Angeles is connected to its movement at this meeting and hence arisen with him. Mr. W. Wilbur C. Gordon
PIONEER ANGELENOS RETURN FROM EXTENSIVE TRIP INTO CANADA
Mr. and Mrs. William Gray, pioneer and highly respected citizens, have just returned from Canada, where they went several weeks ago on their annual vacation.
The Grays report a most delightful trip and Canada a very beautiful and hospitable country.
The Grays own one-of the most beautiful property sites on Compton Avenue and Mr. Gray is one of the S. P. trusty employees, having been with the company for upwards of twenty years.
In order for one to realize what Mrs. Gray stands for, you would have to visit their home and see her in action. As a housewife she is practical in the true sense of the word and yet a most generous provider of culinary delicacies. If ever you dine with the Grays, ever afterwards your one desire would be to dine again.
We take pleasure in presenting Mr. and Mrs. Gray to the reading public not because of their popularity as social leaders but as genuine, thrifty citizens, who make up a part of what is actually known to be the better part of the community in which they live.

(By A. N. P.)
Hollywood, Cal., Sept. 10.—Clarise Myers, 18, living at the McCadier Hotel, Hollywood, was driven to wild Laurel Canyon under protest where she was attacked by J. D. Newman, 62, of 950 East 45th street early Tuesday. Miss Maves, a dancer at the Midway Canyon Inn, was waiting for a car at 1:30 M., leaving her work. Newman, a watchman in uniform, met her at Santa Monica and Highland streets and offered to drive her home. Instead, he took her to the canyon, brutally attacking and bruising her. She managed to fight him off, and he left her on Hollywood Boulevard, where she was found by Lieutenant Hollowell, Hollywood detective, and treated at the Receiving Hospital by Police Surgeon Dunsmore. Newman was found and arrested and after identification placed in jail on a charge of attempted rape.

BAPTISTS HOLD MAMMOTH CONVENTION IN TEXAS L. K. Williams Again Heads Organization
(By A. N. P.)
Fort Worth, Texas, Sept. 11.—Amid tumultuous and prolonged acclimation, the Rev. L. K. Williams, for four years, president of the National Bap Convention, was unanimously reelected this afternoon at the conclusion of his annual address, described as the most marvelous in the history of the convention and by virtue of a motion instituted by President J. C. Jackson of Hartford, Conn., who asked that the rules be suspended in order that the action might be admitted.
Rev. Jackson's motion was made very shortly after Dr. Williams at the conclusion of his address had given first expression of his sentiment concerning rumors that he was to resign. These rumors had flown on wings out of Chicago and had invaded the President's magnificent special to Texas. His closest advisers did not know what he would do, knowing that earlier this year in Brooklyn he had announced his intention to resign. But they knew further that as soon as the intention had been announced, letters and telegrams of protest had clogged his mails—enough to cause him to hesitate. And until he ended his address this afternoon, no one had known how his course might be altered. This afternoon he told the delegates he wanted to resign.
"I was sincere when I said I had no desire to continue in office," he emphasized, after describing the rigors and burden of his position, "and I say now if you desire to elect anyone else and do so, I shall be perfectly satisfied. So do whatever seems best to you."
Then he read, as if in prayer, those famous words of troubled men for many years, contained in the immortal hymn, "Lead Kindly Light."
The effect of his announcement was to stun the ordinarily voluble and volatile delegates. For thirty seconds they did or said nothing. Then a young woman, clad in bright white, took her position before the microphone. She was a member of Dr. Williams' church, Olivet, and while the women cheered, she presented him with a large basket of flowers. Another young woman followed with a beautiful quilt from the young woman of the convention, Olivet, who presented but formerly of Olivet, then presented s Hamilton gold watch on behalf of the men of the church. It was all done beautifully, touchingly. Wisely and mercifully, they did not require the convention leader, tired from his previous efforts to acknowledge these expressions of fealty.
Then, Jackson of Hartford and the motion and pandemonium. Noise such as only Baptist preachers can make, wild, glad, powerful, determined acclaim. As they yelled, a spare figure rose at the left of the microphone. On the train from Chicago he had not been able to eat so sick had he been. He held up his hand and bowed his head to get the chairman's attention. Eyes in the audience saw him. "Austin," a voice cried, "Give us Austin. Hear him! Hear him! Let Austin speak!" The cry filled the great tent, was echoed and re-echoed. A half dozen other men were on their feet, on the platform, demanding to be heard. For two minutes (it seemed like an age) the chairman hesitated. "The chair recognizes Dr. Austin," he finally announced.
They had called this man Austin to second the nomination of Williams, because the powerful voice of this frail man is majestic music in the ears of the Baptist host. They expect him to "clean up." He did in terms of gifting tribute to Dr. Williams, who, he declared, had been brother and friend to him in the work he is now doing at Pilgrim Church in Chicago. Others to second the nomination were Pinkston of Atlanta, and the Rev. W. H. Moses, who defined himself as a representative of the United States.
Dr. Williams' address dealt comprehensively with problems confronting America today, the work of the church in respect to these problems, and the internal constitution of the Baptist Church.
He was a moral and moral man.
ican war of church and state. "In our country we have felt the impact of a crime movement," he asserted. "Eighty-five per cent of our criminals are below twenty-one years of age. One out of every eleven persons who marry get a divorce. Our young people seem to be increasing in their disregard for parental authority." But he declared America's most important domestic problem to be the problem of the Negro. The blame for it he placed at the door of the white man. He demurred at one stage of his address against calling it a problem, because, as he said, a problem is something the solution of which is either difficult or unknown. "But those with whom this problem rests," he cried, "know what to do. They lack courage more than they lack wisdom. They have been playing with the question. Proper race relations depend upon the attitude of the head and heart. The church must preach of the sanctity of human rights, that big men mean more than big banks."
Announcing that the Negro is no specific creation, but in all respects just like all other men with the same background, he scored the southern system of cheating the Negro in his school allotments, and poked fun at those whites who seem to believe the Negro can do as much with little as the white can with much. He then apostrophized those Negroes who, though "born on credit, dying in debt, and buried on the installment plan" had made in sixty years the progress of which the race boasts.
Other important general pats of his address called for support of the Prohibition Amendment, because to nullify it would discourage nullification of amendments which protect the Negro's citizenship, and took issue with Clarence Darrow on his famous charge that Negro is too bloomin' pious."
"The trouble is that we are not bloomin' pious enough. We've got to get closer to God," protested Dr. Williams.
It was no wonder when he had concluded with his sound recommendations for various boards, the brethren shouted their praise. They were plumb happy.
Verily, these men of God are gathered in a swirling city of tents. Picture, if you can, two city blocks, oddly vacant on the periphery of the business section of this town of near two hundred thousand souls. Less than five hundred feet from the Texas and Pacific terminal into which the trains bearing the gospel delegates pulled, lies this expansive reservation like a gently rising plateau. On its surface is laid out the convention city. Shops of all kinds, selling sandwiches of chicken, fish, pork, boiled dinners, cool drinks, watermelons, gospel literature, haberdashery, stationery, and so forth, line either side of what is the well-lighted temporary Main street. Back of this main avenue are others, and crossing it are lanes for the egres sand ingress of the delegates.
This huge canvas church spreads like a giant still turtle over twice the area of the average armory. Silken garments are issued for vast confines. So that the voices of even these sturdy preachers might carry to the outer rim of enclosure, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, local daily and the largest paper in the south, installed apparatus for a microphone which lifts the messages of these leaders and throws them forcefully against the exit.
Baptist convictions are noteworthy, because of the great amount of order they bring out of disorder, the large number of accomplishments they achieve from apparent lack of direction. President Williams felt compelled at the opening session to declare that order itself was going to be a feature. The mission have therefore indeed added some of the customary roles and other responsibilities to such functioning human flow. Conventions in states like this are differently received from those which may plush their seats in the cool cities of the north. There has not only the sun down now, many have the body, but the beauty of the people and even those in the city are commendable.

COMMENTS
Some years past a cartoon, we think that it was by the famous Tom Nast, depicted an Irishman on an isolated island concentrating his thoughts on his own misery and wrongs when all about him lay the rotting corpses, victims of human hatreds. That cartoon was labeled "Why Not Think of the Misery of Others?" but continued oppression caused Irishmen to concentrate upon themselves until, today, they are in a partial position to have a thought for the miseries of others.

Oftimes we have thought that American Negroes were becoming oblivious to the sufferings of others by undue concentration on the wrongs from which they suffer through the machinations of racial prejudice and hatreds. But, in view of the following, which is being used for the purpose of propaganda, we have come to the conclusion that it is the better part of wisdom to consolidate forces and utter turn those forces which we will be able to help ameliorate the conditions of others less fortunate.

Prof. Kirby Page, in advocating a National Peace Department in the government, among other things, says, "The peoples of the various nations are dangerously ignorant of each other. Out of this lack of knowledge grows the suspicions, fears and hatreds which cause peoples to endure the staggering burden of armaments and which place the rank and file of citizens at the mercy of governmental propaganda in hours of crisis."

H. G. Wells, the historian, writes, "I am convinced myself, that there is no more evil thing in this present world than race prejudice, none at all; I write this deliberately—it is the worst single thing in life now. It justifies and holds together more baseness, cruelty and abomination than any other sort of error in the world. Now read what a Vanderbilt University professor writes in a book published by "The White American Society." 1923—

"After spending three years in graduate work at the University of Chicago travelled six years among the countries of the darker peoples. . . that the Negroes are an inferior people is regarded as axiomatic throughout the white South and many other sections of the country. . . The white race has founded all civilizations. . . the Negro has not had and cannot have a part in progressive civilization. . . That the colored races do not originate in the most solemn fact of human history, the only fact that bodes ill for the future. . . A race devoid of creative genius is an unfit type so far as progress in civilization is concerned. . . Civilization has never survived intimate and prolonged contact with colored races. . . If we do remove the Negro our civilization is to decay. If we do not remove the Negro our civilization is to increase and our future belongs to GOD. . . The white man is the sun that lights the world; the hustre of other races is in but reflected glory. The white man is in but what the négophilist is in theory—the voice of the ALMIGHTY upon the earth."
You remember Bran, the Texan Iconoclast, how he lived and how he DIED. They have exhumed his deceased carcass to quote his putrid distribute against the Negro. Bran wrote hate. "We have hunted the black rage friend to death with hounds, bored him with buckknight; fricseased him over slow fires and buried him alive; but the despoilment of white women by these brutal impa of darkness and the devil is still of daily occurrence. The bukleal shadow of black hange over every Southern home like the aweof Damocles, like the blight of death—an avatar of infamy, a degree of demutation. . . In the name of female God what shall we do? . . Drive out the 'Nigger' young and old wife and female—or drive him into the earth. . . It is better that a thousand good Negroes, if so many then be, should not death or hambunishment that not good white women should be debauched."
These things are quoted as "British Dangers" in advertising a department for National Finance. In detail, it has given to the world an inexplicable fact that this United States of America—at the least the regular part—is far without the role of the finance is played by the central of humanity. The result consists of a prisoner who was killed because the amount of his employees paid as his compensation. What else can the amount of his compensation in the history of all companies be?

Richmond, Va., Sept. 7—Gov. Byrd has directed the attorney general to be on hand to represent the State at Withville when the special grand jury summoned by Judge Sutherland is in order to begin investigation of the lynching of Raymond Byrd, the young colored youth, several weeks ago.
Attorney General Saunders has designated Leon M. Bazille, one of his assistants, to proceed to Wytheville, and the governor has named Joseph H. Chitwood, former United States district attorney now at Roanoke, to aid the prosecution. Criticism has been directed at the alleged dilatory manner of the officers dealing with the case.
ARREST OF LYNCHERS WILL BE PAID
Atlanta, Ga., Spet. 10—Gov. Clifford Walker has announced a reward of $500 for the arrest of the first member of the masked mob which stormed the Coffee County jail Monday morning and lynched Dave Wright held at Douglas, Ga., for the slaying of Mrs. Zalphia Rollin's two weeks ago. An additional reward of $100 was made for the apprehension of any member of the mob. It is said that the sheriff was overpowered at the jail from where Wrght was forcefully takep, and that he was carried a distance of about three miles and his body riddled with more than fifty bullets.
No Substitute for Water
Some folks constantly admonish us that the Colorado River water and power project is not any sort of an issue. Bah! How does it happen then that they pay enough attention to it to see that every possible obstacle is thrown in the way to prevent the passage of the proposed Boulder Dam Bill? Who engineered the fight against the ratification of the Colorado River Compact? Who was responsible for the defeat of the Metropolitan Water Bill? Who wanted to tax our municipal water and power systems for the obvious purpose of raising our water and power rates and thereby further hinder and delay the building of the Boulder Dam by the Government for the benefit of the people? There is no substitute for water. The building of the Boulder Dam project is a vital issue. Don't let anybody fool you on that score.
Why even think of supporting men for public office of any sort who pack a monkey wrench around for the express purpose of throwing it into our water and power machiney at every opportunity?
Do you believe that our municipal water and power plants should be taxed? A bill was introduced in the legislature for this very purpose. One of the gentlemen who voted for it wants to be elected to an important office in November: Investigate before you vote.
RISKY BUSINESS
Voting a man into office simply because someone says, "he is a good fellow" is risky business. It is highly important that we inform ourselves as to the qualifications of those who seek office and get a line on their past and present attitude toward important public questions if we are to have less of waste and mismanagement in the conduct of public affairs.
Frequently we vote for men who are opposed to the very things that we stand for simply because we fail to inform ourselves. Risky business!
Size 'Em Up
Would you say that a member of the legislature is a supporter of and friendly to our municipal water and power enterprises, including the Boulder Dam projects, when that member voted against California's ratification of the Colorado River Compact and voted against the passage of the Metropolitan Water Bill? The member referred to also supported and voted for the Assembly Measure that provided for the taxing of our municipal water and power plants. The passage of this sort of legislation would have brought about an immediate and substantial raise in rates. Size 'em up—before you vote!

If You Fall To Read---THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE--You May Never Know It Happens.
EUREKA VILLA
To all purchasers of lots in Eureka Villa we are pleased to announce the completion of your trust on August 24th. It required nearly three months to put your deal in shape so that we could proceed to protect you against all foreclosures and law suits, ultimately giving you your titles through escrow. It has been a very trying job but an extremely pleasant one because every one has cooperated so nicely.
It is true that you were in a bad condition, should we use the expression of those who live in fear, but who need live in fear no longer, because you have passed that stage and to those promoters and salesmen who pioneered Eureka Villa, cannot be given too much praise for having struggled courageously on to where it was necessary to work out new means of proceeding further. Courage and faith have worked out that way for you through the undersigned who is nothing more than a medium through which we hope to build a paradise in those canyons by exercising more courage and faith, backed up by concentrated effort and much thinking-right thinking. We must think harmoniously.
Those who stop to dwell in the past with malice and hatred and with criticism and accusation of their fellow men—oh well—they just stopped, that's all—they make no progress whatever. So in reference to your previous conditions or predicament at Eureka Villa, just promise yourself to forget the mistakes of others in the past, it matters not who made them, and let us all together press on to greater achievements in the future.
When we shall have finished with Eureka Tract, it will be yours for keeps. We are trying to really fix it for the sake of posterity. The only person who stands to lose will perhaps be the undersigned, but as a group it will always be yours. In two months time we have raised for the development of our tract $100,000.00, in units of $20,000.00. To operate under this plan of procedure we will be forced to get rid of your present contracts either by cancellation or deed, and we prefer of course to give your deeds, and to figure in every possible way to prevent a cancellation. To avoid cancellation
Respectively,
JOURN
EUREKA FI
843 Central Avenue, Suite 9, 10, 11
---
we shall extend your time limit to October 1, 1926, by which time any of you will be able to get your title, provided you are in position to demand the same. For the duration of this extension we make you the following proposition in order to encourage you to pay up by September 20, 1926, we will discount your balance to 25%. Should you pay up by September 25, 1926, you will get a discount of 20%, and by October 1, 1926 a 10% discount. Now folks, remember you must do your part and always be sure that you are right and have lived up to your obligations before you can demand the other fellow to do his. I want everyone to get in a position to demand a deed and title by October 1, 1926, and therefore have offered to make these big concessions to help you. You will understand this better bye and bye.
We have no secrets in this new deal. Our contracts, agreements and trust can be seen at any time by those who might be skeptical yet interested and willing to do. Come into our office if you wish at any time, and we will be glad to show you every courtesy. At the same time we beg your indulgence, because this deal has been like a Chinese Crossword Puzzle—and remember we have nearly 800 of you to straighten out—co-operation will do it—fighting among yourselves will destroy you, not us.
Water? Yes! We have brought in a wonderful well for domestic purposes. We are told that it is the best drinking water in the valley. We rebored and put a 10 inch casing in the old wind mill well, and have 37 feet of water standing in same at present. Those of you who remember the old wind mill will know the meaning of this.

Rev. W. F. Pascale, Atlanta, will conduct a series of meetings for the Tabernacle Baptist Church, commencing Sunday, September 19. Dr. Pascal comes highly recommended as an Evangelist of great power and no double Tabernacle Church will be a great center of religious activity during his stay.
THE BIG GOSPEL TENT
The Seven Last Plagues, will be the subject of Evangelist P. G. Rodgers at the Big Tent, Sunday night, Sept. 19th at 7:45 P. M. From the 16th chapter of the book of Revelations, Mr. Rodgers will explain the meaning of the WRATH OF GOD and also show from the scriptures the ways that the Great God has to protect His people from His fierce anger. So many people forget that even though the wrath of the Lord is promised against the opposers of His word, yet His great love is revealed toward His servants. Every night during the week these special evangelistic services are held and the public is cordially invited to be present promptly at 7:45 P. M.

PLAIN FACTS
DR. RUTH J. TEMPLE
NOTE: The wife of one of our leading ministers said to me last week, Dr. Temple, I appreciate your articles in the eagle so much. I just wish, O, I do wish, that I had kept every one of them so that I could have them for my children to read and study as they get older." Then this very intelligent mother went on to say how well acquainted she was with the great need of women and girls for knowledge concerning the mysteries of life. Because this plea for greater information, and more enlightenment is pouring into my ears on all sides, and because in my work as a special doctor for women and girls I constantly see in ruined lives the results of ignorance, I am interested more than ever in getting "Plain Facts" before my people. My very heart has been wrung during the past few weeks as I have seen so many girls of all races—white, black and yellow, bowed down with sorrow because they had fallen under temptation.
Friends, it is not because girls are that they sin. It is because they are ignorant. Fathers and mothers are heart-roken and greatly agitated over the terrible number of girls that go astray year by year in our city. But parents being worried is not enough, being alarmed will not help the condition, make a real sacrifice to 'get the truth' to girls, which will save them from themselves. We are making some very definite plans for the propagation of this true knowledge to our young people, and in the near future your column on Plain Facts will have a special surprise announcement to make, first to the women and girls and then later we hope to boys and men.
Now that the summer is almost over and the irregularities incident to vacations and other interruptions are passed we will begin back again on our regular series of articles on Maternity or Motherhood. Because so many men and women both are intensely interested in the great subject as a whole and because no one can remember all of the points taken up from week to week; I again suggest to you the great advisability of ning every single copy of the Eagle from now on.

Now, in a special sense we ask our readers to send in their requests and suggestions that as we are outlining our new series of articles we may cover the special questions that each one has in mind. So if you do have a subject which you wish talked on, or if questions thus far unanswered are in your mind, please feel free to address such to Dr. Ruth J. Temple, 3556 So. Western; Phones: VA. 1221, UN. 1255 EM. 9981.

HUNDREDS SEE. SPECTACLE
Los Angeles we city of was
the scene of a scalping tod Eynching
party on last Monday, the 19th inst
at the corner of Twelfth and Central
—the center of the black belt.
‘The victim was an innocent ‘chap
who came walking idly down the
street when he was suddenly grabbed
by several husky men warming the
curb and bitterly accused of having
committed a most dastardly erime,
Pleading innocent proved of no avail.
‘The screams and shouts of men and
women that crowded the busy thor-
onghfare on their way home from
their daily occupation did not have any
effect.
‘The poor boy was knocked down,
stamped upon and scalped and gto
make sure that there would be “no
repetition of such an unpardonable of-
fense as he was accused of, a rope
was procured and the gentleman
tightly fastened to it and strung
across the sidewalk in sight.of all.
Today the body of Straw Hat still
dangles in the air, a solemn reminder
to those guilty of committing the un-
pardonable sin of strutting a Straw
Hat on the 13th «ay of September and
who were fortunate enough to escape
the mob not to get caught next year.
Several husky officers of the law,
including Detective Captain Glenn,
Frank White, Officer Kelly and a
couple of others were hurriedly rush-
ed to the acene and after considerable
effort quelled the disturbance, clear-
‘ed the street, for traffic and restored
order, but left the corpse of some 53
Straw Hats hanging high and dry in
‘the air.
One of the most beautiful house
weddings of the season was that of
Mr. Stewart Richard Simpson, and
Miss Julia Pauline Taylor, sotémnized
at the home of the bride’s aunt, Mrs.
Mamie Thompson of Hyans Street.
Mr. Sirgpson is recently of Atlanta,
Ga., and Miss Taylor is the daughter
of Mr. Cornelius B. Taylor, elevator
starter at the Broadway Department
Store, and the late Mrs. Maggie J.
Taylor.
By the strains of Mendelsohn’s

of the bride and Matron of honor,

WESLEY McD. HOLDE!
LIBERTY HALL, Aug. 24, 1926.—
The extraordinay miseonduct, misuse
of official power, and swollen_ambition
of Marcus Garvey, the late President
General of the. Universal Negro Im-
Provement Association have been res-
ponsible during the past 6 years for
the squandering of funds of the or-
ganization, the disruption of its work
and the abortion of its policies. Un-
fortunately also the public has up to
now seen only Garvey and knows lit-
tle if anything of the organization
which he has so gravely misrepresent-
ed. At this time therefore the or-
ganization fs faced with the immediate
task of setting its house, in order
and re-establishing itself in the es-
teem and respect of the world.
Marcus Garvey was convicted and
sentenced to serve a term of impris-
onment in the United States peniten-
itary at Atlanta, Ga., after a fair
and impartial trial. During this tri-
ai his ludicrous antics would have
aroused the laughter of the Negro
Peoples of the Workt'had they not
been so humiliating te the organiza-
ing draped with orange blossome. She
carried a bouquet of white rose buds
and sweet peas. Mrs, Wida Carter of
Santa Monica in embroidered peach
crepe, acted as train bearer. Under a
bower and bell of white and pink car-
nations, ferns and tulle ribbon. they
were united by the Rev. R. W. Un-
derwood. Many beautiful and useful
presents were received, and the cou-
ple left under a bombardment of rice,
predicting joy and happiness.
tio of which he was a high Executive
Officer and whose funds he was lavish-
ly misapproapriating in a grandiose
effort to keep from paying the pen-
alty of his crime. In the same fash-
fon as he had before misused the
funds of the Assotiation and abused
the power of his office to advertise his
name, he attempted to centre the en-
tire control of the Universal Negro
Improvement Association in the
hands of certain personal satellites.
He appointed unconstitutionally to
the position of control a man whom
he had thrice before denouced before
the orgaitation as dishonest, immoral,
inefficient and totally unfit for execu-
tive office.
By these measutes he planned to
maintain his despotic control of the
organization until his release from
prison, when by posing as a martyr
he again hoped to victimize and ex-
ploit the organization and the illiter-
ate masses of his race. To this end
records of the organization have been
removed, its program disrupted and
its funds diverted to the purpose of
propagandizing to arouse sympathy
for and to. éover the misdemeanors of
Garvey, even the official organ of the
Organization, the Negro World, be-
‘ing prostituted for this purpose.
ve/ftet, Teasoning iainly with Gar-
vey and his henchmen, the organiza-
tion has been compelled to take defi-
nite steps against him. As a result,
certain misguided elements have with-
drawn themselves from the Associa-
tion and calling themselves “Garvey-
ites” are holding meetings and car-
‘rying on a mail and press campaign
in the interest of Garvey, using for
that purpose _ the _ misappropriated
funds of the Universal Negro Im-
provement Association.
Liberty Hall, 120 West 188th St,
New York City, céntinues to be the
Headquarters and general meeting
place of the Universal Negro Im-
provement Association and it is plan-
ned to erect here the executive offices
and Convention: Hall of the Organiza-
tion. Funde'for this purpose were
placed in the hands of Garvey 5 years
ago but were misappropriated by
him to other purposes.
The two manifestoes attached to
this release were today sent out by
the Fifth International Convention of
the Negro Peoples of the World in
session at ‘Liberty Hall. Copies of
that addressed to the Races and Na-
tions of the World have been sent to
the League of Nations and to the va-
rious governments of the World.
Copies of the manifesto to the Ne-
gro Peoples bf the World have been
sent to the Abyssinian, Liberian and
Haitian Governments, to all Negro
Congresses and Assemblies, to. the
Tribal Chiefs throughout Afriea, to
all important Negro Organizations
in the United States, the West Indies,
‘South and Central America and Cana-
da, as well as to the Negro Press.

od of extending our apreciation to
those who did not receive our letters,
and who remembered us so beautiful-
ly in our hours of bereavement.

With the optimistic reports from the National Negro Business League and its determination to delve even deeper along the lines of business effort. It is high time that our own local organization would get busy for the year's program of progress. We have an abiding faith in the officers of our local organization and are assured that they subscribe most heartily to the program of progress as laid down by the National body and that we will soon be on the move in this section.
There should be first of all, an educational campaign to inform the people what it is all about. This is surely so for the masses do not know. Take this past year, when the local League put on a drive for a "Negro Business" week which was fostered for the purpose of stimulating "Negro Business," or in other words a week of intensive activity for Negroes to help themselves, some of our citizens took the wrong angle of the situation and predicted all sorts of things excepting the promotion of Negro Business. Such instances as this must be remedied and all hands go forward the present year for a greater, bigger and better business for our group.
THE TELLING LINE OF PODUCTION
It is the telling strokes of production which count and raise us up along the lines of business effort and demonstrates beyond per adventure the capacity of our group to do the things worth while.
One black man by thrift and industry, a scientific treatment of the soil, gained from a painstaking study and research, produced in South Carolina more wheat from an acre of ground than any other citizen in that state, black or white. His accomplishment was outstanding from the fact that his nearest competitor was quite 15 bushels shy of the production of A. G. Pressley of Greenwood County, who raised on one acre, fifty-one and one-half bushels of wheat, his nearest competitor raised 36 bushels.
Coming on out on the plains of bleeding Kansas, a black man named Tom King became disgusted with city life and living from hand to mouth. He sought the fruitful plains, set camp thereon, himself and family. Today he is hailed as the wheat king of Kansas; his advice is sought from far and near and he has raised up his people many notches in the estimation and consideration of the people of Kansas and the world over.
GOVERNOR RICHARDSON SADDER BUT WISER
Of all the words of mouth or pen, the saddest is—What might have been.
Governor Friend Richardson can now look back in sadness as late as August 16th the files of this paper will reveal that we implored him to be not like Pharoah of old but give the Colored voters due consideration to appoint some of them to representative positions. We told him in this issue and others scattered along for the past two or three years, pleading and asking for due consideration for the voters who came to his rescue 4 years ago and made him the Republican nominee. We further told the governor that should he fail to give to them this recognition, they would surely fail him when he needed them the most.
In the light of recent events we are sure the Governor can now discern the logic contained in our advice, for he needed urgently so the Colored vote which he failed to receive and the only reason that he did not receive this support was the fact that the Governor had absolutely turned his back upon it by his refusal to give to it any sort of recognition in the affairs of the state government.
Of the facts mentioned above there is not one question of the fact that the Governor's defeat was brought about by his failure to receive any appreciable suport from the contingent of colored voters. In other words the self same vote which assured his victory four years ago, caused his defeat at the recent primaries.

To interpret the defeat of Mrs. Ferguson as a slap at women in politics would be both unfair and ungallant. It was not, indeed, a slap at women at all, but at a man. Jim Ferguson was the real target of the voters of Texas, and that his wife suffered the flip of the blow was of her own choosing. She was a candidate for re-election, not on her own record, but on her husband's. She sought to vindicate his acts, not her own. Jim Ferguson was the person repudiated.
The charge that women are a complete failure in politics is, to say the very least, premature. Good judgment would not venture such an opinion. It is true that woman suffrage has not brought about all the reforms its enthused proponents promised. That was to be expected. Where it served only to increase the percentage of foreign-born voters (as in the large cities), immediate beneficial results could not be looked for. But out through the country where the population is American, the effect has been marked. Those states in which women have had the ballot longest are generally credited as having the cleanest governments.
The machinery of the ballot is still new to women. They do not fully understand its uses. Where men have had the vote for years, women have had it for months. The general apathy of American citizens toward the ballot affects them as well as it does men. The hope inspired when the ballot was given to women should not be relinquished too soon. The common sense of the American woman may be expected to surmount all obstacles to a registry of her will for the nation—The Deser- how Independent.

TIMELY REMARKS
If You Fail To Read The CALIFORNIA EAGLE You May Never Know It Happened
High Points of Interest During the Biennial Convention of the National Association of Colored Women and on the Return Trip of President Mary McLeod Bethune
By: REBECCA STILES TAYLOR
Railroad authorities said, "It is the largest, most dignified and gracious delegation to ever cross the continent."
At each stop, delegations of resident club women, bearing greetings and flowers, met the long train which consisted of 18 Pullman cars, two diners, club car and observation car to whose rear end was attached in electric lights a blazing sign entitled, "National Association of Colored Women."
she presented herself ample of such an highly wrought up h the peculiar circ which she was speak at that very hour and influence over her being quietly laid to her parents sleep, Bethune presented Miss Crissman who whole credit for the and Mary McLeod Christian parents, who
The train being late on reaching Colorado Springs, the daily organ recital at the Morman Tabernacle was over. A wire sent ahead, asking that a special Concert be arranged for the N. A. C. W.'s delegation brought a quick response and for the first time, this special honor was granted. A group picture of the delegation consisting of nearly four hundred women with four men and a goodly number of children, was made on the grounds of the Tabernacle. The "Garden of the Gods" was visited also.
The whole of Oakland's Colored population, seemingly, turned out to meet the delegates. The spacious Civic Auditorium afforded ample room for all meetings and with a kitchen and dining room and an able staff of male cooks, the delegation, now numbering more than five hundred was splendidly cared for. Local club women served as waitresses.
The Checker Cab Company engaged by the local club women rendered exceptional service and deserves special mention for their most courteous attention.
The "Sky Line" drive in Oakland which took the delegation by the Greek Theater of the University of California where President Bethune spoke, as well as the wonderful drive in San Francisco were of intense interest, both being carefully escorted by delegations of motorcycle policemen who semed to thoroughly enjoy their work and saw to it that everything cleared the way for the long string of automobiles, the use of which was a gift of ambitious politicians and local friends. The luncheon served at the Club House of the white club women of San Francisco along with the special program were interesting and enjoyable affairs.
On arriving in San Francisco the siren was blown, the order being given by the Mayor that the whistle be blown in honor of the President of the National Association of Colored women and her delegation just as it was done for the Princess of Sweden two weeks prior. Through the kindness of the colored male citizens of San Francisco an interesting boat ride was arranged during which a spectacular demonstration of a fire boat was made and many points of interest were pointed out to the delight of the visiting ladies.
The welcomes of the Governor, Lieutenant Governor, the Mayor of Oakland who sat through the formal opening program of the Convention, the Mayor of San Francisco who presented a United States flag on the steps of the City Hall, of Senator Shortridge recently re-elected and much admire aby the colored citizens of California, of Senator Karns (a woman) of an official of the General Federation of white women, of the men, women and children from all walks of life the welcomes were beyond description. Everything in California is so big, so bright, so hearty, so luxuriant.
Los Angeles—Wonder city of the Pacific Coast. Everyone in Los Angeles lives either in a spacious house or a beautiful bungalow. Flowers, big, gorgeous, colorful, green velvety lawns, bright red geranium hedges, low squatty palmals, immaculately clean streets, brightest of sunshine, all lend a magnificence and charm peculiarly their own.
Angelus Temple and Aimee McPheron baptizing one hundred and thirty men, women and children, whole families at one time, in one dip. We watched her methods to see how she did it. She work "from the known to the unknown," and, she uses the object method which is used in every day school. We shook her hands with her. We marvelled at her power she works "from the known to the hundreds of converts. Truly, woman is coming into her own! Visited Hollywood and the Hollywood Bowl and was presented box seats free of charge because we represented the National Association.
Los Angeles of all places in California meant more to Mary McLeod Bethune than any other spot, for it is now the home of Miss Mary Grissman, the modest, little school teacher who gave a tenth of her small earnings to the education of Mrs. Bethune and who, as she said, "Backed up with prayer." After-a laque of thirty years, Mrs. Bethune and Miss Crissman met face to face and the gentle white woman, still humble in circumstances but comfortable graced the platform on which her former protege stood and pleaded with the multitude present, rich and poor, white and black—TO INVEST IN A HUMAN SOUL. Who knows, it might be "A Diamond in the Rough." On receiving a bonquet of flowers from the local club woman at the end of her dramatic speech which brought tears from the eyes of all present, as
she presented herself as a living example of such an investment, being highly wrought up herself because of the peculiar circumstances under which she was speaking and because at that very hour her oldest brother, and influence over her thousands and being quietly laid to rest in the old her parents sleep, Mrs. Mary McLeed Bethune presented that bouquet to Miss Crissman who in turn gave the whole credit for the making of her and Mary McLeed Bethune to her Christian parents who had caught her present in Christ. God had harshly in doing so, elevated from the race fields of South Carolina this little Negro girl who is undoubtedly THE MOST OUTSTANDING NEGRO WOMAN IN THE WORLD TODAY. The scene was dramatic, 'Twas sublime! 'Twas true!
Simple but elegant was the breakfast tendered the President at Christian Tavern by the local branch of is a member. And many and elaborate were the breakfasts, luncheons, teas and dinners given by the citizens of California and the West.
We have read of the Underground Railway of the dark days—Our return trip was a veritable Overground Railway very similar to the Underground of other days for at the below listed cities we simply wired ahead and were met by an escort who placed us (one time seven in party and another fourteen) in the hands of club women who fed, sheltered and entertained us most graciously.
At Pasadena and Monrovia, California; Portland, Oregon; Seattle, Wash.; Victoria and Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. At each place our President addressed men, women and children who in turn pledged themselves to the entire program of the N. A. C. W. and especially to the President's plank—National Headquarters in Washington, D. C.
Stopping at Lake Louise in the province of Alberta, Canada, we viewed the snow-capped mountains at whose foot lay the blue waters of the most picturesque lakes in the world. One who has seen the lakes of Switzerland, declares that Lake Louise truly rivals any in natural beauty.
From Lake Louise we visited St Paul, Minnesota, where again the President spoke to a large group of club women and men.
When Chicago was reached we were cordially entertained in the hospitable home of Mrs. M. C. B. Mason, preparatory to our return to Florida the land of flowers which in many ways rivals Golden California, and equally affords opportunities for the survival of the fittest. The one ripple of discord to enter into the work of the Convention was, Where shall we place National Headquarters? Whether at the Frederick Douglass Home in Anacostia, Washington which is controlled by the National Association or in Washington proper?
In their zeal for the welfare of the Douglass Home many states sent their delegates instructed to vote for the Douglass Home Site as Headquarters but on hearing the plans of President Bethune and realizing the growing importance of the National association in the affairs of the Nation and knowing also that the headquarters of all other National Organizations are in Washington proper—like the mist before the noon day sun, all opposition faded away and unanimously the National Association voted for headquarters in Washington proper and in so doing gave the President a limitation of $50,000 to secure headquarters and equipment.
The Constitution and By-Laws were revised so as to provide a flat rate of fifty cents per years per woman or one dollar per two years. Out of each dollar 15% will be placed to the credit of the Douglass Home, 15% to the National Scholarship Loan, 70% to the National Notes for the administration covering the National Notes. For all purposes must be placed in the hands of the treasurer of the Association and disbursed by her to all boards.
All monies must be disbursed in the name of the National Association for all boards. The "Drive" for Headquarters with the Presidet in charge is the ONLY DRIVE to come before the club women of the country for the next two years.
We have on hand more than $10,000 in the National Scholarship Fund and an equal amount of $10,000 for the Douglass Home's repair and upkeep.
To encourage and conserve the strength of our Young Women graduating from our Colleges and High Schools yearly, who find it hard to adjust themselves to the ways of the women of more mature years, the Young Women's Department was organised with a National Chairman and pledged its unwavering support to National Headquarters.
The program of the President was carried out in its entirety and the Convention adjourned to meet in Washington, D. C., 1925, when we shall view the improvements to the Douglass Home and dedicate our National Headquarters.

And this was in Virginia. Soaked with gasoline, a match was touched to his clothing, and the Guards stood by smothering the flames with brooms to keep them from spreading. The charred remains were strung up to a tree and used as a target. WHAT CONSTITUTES CIVILIZATION?
Allain Locke in his book "The New Negro," writes, "No sane observer however sympathetic to the new trend, would contend that the masses are articulate as yet, but they stir, they move, they are more than physically restless. . . ." Yes, that restlessness is seen on every hand, wherever we have been it is observable. A seething under mass, like the disturbing process of the geyser before it spouts or the inward battles of the volcanic forces before the eruption, it is there: an awakening of race consciousness which no amount of oppression can suppress, no shackles of ignorance forever bind. When will the United States awake to the fact her success in the future, as in the past, is intwined with that of the Negro? His growth in wealth and intelligence is necessary to the growth

and prosperity of the nation. We repeat again, the restlessness was discerned in recent conversations held with men who were gathered from all parts of the Union in the city of Cleveland. That big demonstration was in itself a great representation of racial consciousness.
Let the automobile agent know that you are a prospective buyer and he will be at your door before breakfast to demonstrate his wares and try to convince you that God made a mistake in giving you a good pair of legs and did not foresee the coming of the automobile. Yes, you are encouraged to buy expensive "machines." Why? Who manufactures them and where does the money go? Has the Negro any automobile factories? On the other hand; you want a home in some desirable locity. Does the agent haunt your waking hours to show the desirability of buying in some section worth the living? No! That home will stand for something in the years, an asset to your responsibility as a citizen in your community. It would be well to think of those things. Build the barn and then purchase the horse.

BABY JOE GANS WINS WITH KNOCK-OUT OVER BURNS
VOLUME 40
BABY JOE GANS
KNOCK-O
Baby Joe Gans lived up to his name and local reputation Wednesday night Sept. 15th at the great Olympic Auditorium by knocking out Bobby Burns, the New York top notcher who substituted for Tommy O'Brien, prevented from keeping his date with the "Young Master" by an injured hand. Said hand must have been doubted by the fans, as O'Brien received a chorus of "Boos" when he stepped into the ring to be introduced as a challenger of the winner.
Burns was first in the ring, receiving quite an ovation. Gans followed and the roof-raising cheers showed the popularity of the clean-cut colored boy. Burns loked much heavier than Gans as they stepped forward for final instructions. The bell, and fight is on.
Round One—Burns rushes, land first blow, a left hook to face and clinched; Gans breaking out of clinch they exchange rights and lefts.
Round Two—Gans misses hard left and nearly falls, then lands hard right to Burns who nearly goes to floor. Gans shots left and two rights to jaw at bell.
Round Three—Burns starts jabbing with left. Burns countering, Gans misses a haymaker but lands another hard right to head, left to wind that puts Burns down for a seven toll.
Round Four—Burns has swollen eye. Rushes Gans. Gans counters two hard rights left hook, right upper cut, then in clinch on the ropes punches Burns with rapid body blows.
Round Five—Gans misses left hook at bell. Burns ducks in with left and right to body. They fight in close; Burns hits low; no damage. They mix in rapid furry. Burns is outclassed but game. They are, both careful at bell.
Round Six—Gans seems over-anxious to finish the groggy Burns. Misses left swing, left uppercut and several swings. Burns fights back gamely but misses often. Gans has been landing two blows to one all through. Keeps punishing Burns' bad eye. Clinch at bell.
Round Seven—Gee! but that boy Burns can stand some punishment! Out at the bell he misses three left lands right to Gans' jaw—that's all. After that, it was just a careful job of systematic murder. Gans' uppercuts with right. staggering Burns, then a fast series of right. Burns helpless, Gans hid him off with left right, measuring him shoots over a hard right that finishes him and floors him for the count. Gans was cheered and cheered.
Otley Spencer, known as "Whitey Black," is built and fights like Sam Langford. He beat Tiger Robinson in a four-round prelim.
Billy Adams beat Jhnny Reisler in their six-round bout. Billy had a powerful left which he knew how to use and which Reisler didn't know how to stay away from. Joe Pimenthal took an unpopular decision to Frank Boldt. Patey O'Flannigan beat Al Neff in the opener.

Coming back in the ring Munn was still a bit glassy-eyed and fell before the same offensive in 23 minutes and 5 seconds.

Young Jack Thompson Makes Chopping Block of Charlie Pitts at Culver City Stadium
JACK THOMPSON
Tuesday, September 14th, with his left eye closed, lip and nose split, and big red blotches over heart and kidneys from a terrific body drubbing, the much touted Charlie Pitts was saved from a knock-out at the hands of Young Jack Thompson by a towel thrown into the ring in the 8th round. Thompson was first in the ring, waiting so long for Pitts' arrival that Joe Rivers, who refereed, remarked from his seat, "Wonder who is Jack's opponent?" Delay did not get Pitts anything though for at tap of the first bell Jack was on him with two left jabs to the head and right uppercut of the stomach. Jack took the first easily. Second round. Pitts evened matters up till last minute when Jack cut loose and rocked him with a flock of wicked uppercuts.
Third round. Jack commenced jabbing Pitts' eye and soon had it red and half closed. He took this also.
The fourth showed Jack chasing Pitts around the ring landing short right crosses to head and working rapidly on body in clinches. Pitts was anxious to break clean from each clinch. He didn't like the in-fighting.
In the fifth Pitts had the only chance to get a look in when he landed a light left to Thompson's jaw and managed to get two more light ones there, then a couple of rights and lefts to body. But Jack was undisturbed and kept right on, the Eastern taking the fight to him. Through both and seventh Thompson had Pitts at his mercy and almost out on his feet until the towel saved him in the eighth.
Jack-showed he has the real stuff in him the way he worked his opponent all over from every angle and Pitts is no slouch as he has fought Benny Leonard, Rocky Kansas and a lot of other good boys.
Dick Brower landed a lot more blows to Jimmy Fox in the semi-wind-up and was a great deal cleverer but lost the decision in the sixth round. Joe Cardoza knocked out Jack Lanson in the second round of the special event.
Big Law Suit Result of Preacher's Attack On Editor

L. A. Playgrounds and Recreation Centers
A new playground is to be added to the municipal recreation facilities through the approval of the Los Angeles Playground and Recreation Commission of the purchase of a site of approximately five acres in Hollenbeck district, provided, the land can be bought at a price not to exceed a maximum fixed by the commission.
Some months ago the playground commission set aside $75,000 for the purchase and equipment of a playground in the vicinity of Whittier Boulevard and Fresno street, subject to the condition that residents of the Hollenbeck area inaugurate district assessment proceedings to acquire an adjoining acreage for park purposes.
No agreement having been reached by Hollenbeck residents on this matter, the playground department has decided to proceed with the development of a much needed playground, without reference to a park project.
The past week had broken all records for attendance at municipal playgrounds, with a daily average of approximately 7,000, mostly boys and girls. This is a daily average of more than 600 over the previous record established late in August. South Park had a daily average f near 900 during the week, and Expsitin with 776 and Each with 706 daily average came second and third, respectively. Every playground but one showed a great increase over former established records.

For the first time in the history of the Girls' Camp maintained by the Los Angeles Playground and Recreation Department in Griffith Park, the camp has been opened to groups of women. The first of the women to spend a night in the well-equipped camp were the members of the Arroyo Seco Women's Gymnasium Club. It is believed that this innovation will bring many applications from women for the privileges of a brief vacation in the outdoors.
Steps toward the improvement of 4,000 feet of sea shore at Cabrillo Beach, San Pedro, have been taken by the Los Angeles Playground and Recreation Department in giving official approval to the acquisition of a shore frontage that will facilitate the development, by filling, of a large water front playground- and bathing beach. The matter is now in the hands of the city attorney to determine the most expeditions method of securing the desired frontage, whether by waiver of present owners or condemnation as eminent domain.
A survey of the facilities provided by the churches of Los Angeles for the recreation of boys, girls and young people has just been completed and when the mass of data has been summarized an effort will be made by the Los Angeles Playground and Recreation Department to co-operate with these institutions in providing more comprehensive programs of athletics, dramatics, and club activities; appreciation of the value of such programs expressed practically every minister of the city; many churches are preparing to increase their activities along these lines.

Bv: START SOMETHING
Considerable excitement was displayed a year or so ago by the announcement that the citizenry of Los Angeles was to be treated to the sight of seeing some real auto races with Negro pilots at the helm. An elaborate advertisement campaign was put on and the event went over big with several thousand paid admissions on hand to cheer and urge some dozen or more Negro drivers on to victory. The affair went big and was town topic gossip for several months. Several of the drivers as a result of being on the winning end strutted out street outfits such as new suits, cadies and canes with shoes to match. The sweetshops, restaurants and what-not business along the Avenue reported an increase in business for several days after. Even the contribution departments of the church complained of excess donations.
The Colored Auto Racing Association was formed with Mr. Somebody as President and Johnnie I'll-hold-it was selected or elected as secretary-treasurer.
Fine! Everything was going nicely with the exception of the fact that everybody did not get in on the money because someone announced the financial river had run dry. It didn't rain enough dollars & cents to fill the stream and right here the ghost of the famous Bert Williams appeared on the scene long enough to state the fact that "Somebody Lied."
Somebody heard Bert's echo and got out an injunction on Johnnie I'll-hold-it and made Johnnie turn loose all except what a Mr. Premoter, smart man from the Negro capitol of America, Chicago, had departed with announced the day following.
Well, thatt's all history now, and lots more that hasn't been spoken of but what the public wants to know and is most interested in it, are there going to be any races this year? Have the differences that arose last year been ironed out and cannot some hero be found to take hold and put it over. Boys, get busy. Folks are just starving for to digest an auto face. Los Angeles has plenty of honest promoters without having to wait for the East to donate you someone, so let's go. Auto Drivers Association, what say you?

Two of the rings were found in a pawn shop. The child was sent to Dutton

BOB FISHER STAGES COME-BACK
Robert Fisher, better known as Bob Fisher in this district is now back to work on the Padre, Bob has been sick for over a year and several times has had the experience of hovering between life and death, doctors have given him up and predicted his end on this earth quite frequently; but Bob has always looked them in the face with a determined denial that he was here for a long time yet to come; some of his own co-workers even went so far as to go to the office and insist that his line at that time on the desk be put up for bid. This was refused, but contending that even though they now expected to see Bob return to actual service, he was nevertheless still alive, although the agitation resulted in the office posting the run up for bid under certain stipulations that in the event that Bob should perform the miracle of recovering his health the line should be forfeited in his right. We are glad to say that with many odds against him he won his battle and is once more again in our ranks looking the picture of health.

While in this section of the country they were shown through the Leland Standford University Chapel viewing its wonderful hand-painted inlaid marble of the Feast of Christ. The Zuluo King and Mrs. Gary have returned home much richer in the mysteries of their own state than they were before. They made the entire trip in their new Hudson sedan.

'NEGRO SPIRITUALS' PLAYED IN CATHEDRAL
London, Sept. 11.—(A. P.). American Negro melodies have been introduced into the musical program of the old Southwark Cathedral, just across London bridge in the south of the Thames. Noonly spectacles are given the benefit of the porter at the Hops Market and other workers from nearby establishments.
The selections are from "Negro Spirituals," or plantation hymns, and are expected to prove a potent drawing card for luncheon hour audiences in this busy district.
Well, it's out at last. They tell me that Maid Hazel Lewis has gone and really done that thing. Yes, she married Lawrence Cloys, a waiter on the Union Pacific. May the wedding bells ring long and loud.
The writer met Allen Matthews in Salt Lake City going East some time ago and she says it won't be long now, that he has popped the question and she has willingly consented.
The Maids are anxious to know whether they are going to operate the De Luxe train or Chicago Maids.
Some of the second section Maids have just been going as far as Cheyenne and laying them all day for the train, and they have to make their hotel in a pullman car which lays over at this point. Such is the life of a Pullman Maid.

MATRIMONIAL CHART
Last Installment
Well folks, this is the last chapter of the Matrimonial Chart. If you have benefitted by reading it, I will consider my work well done. Of all the good men that I have named, I feel sure you will be able to pick out one and make him miserable for the remainder of his life. As far as their dispositions are concerned, what do you care? They will have to dance to your music after you have once got the paners, so you should worry about that.
It's a pretty nice thing to sit down in your own home and wait for your faithful bread-winner to bring home the bacon. And with a Pullman Porter it is pay day every trip. You do not have to even fret about new furniture. Just step into the Eastern Outfitting Co. and pick out what you want, and Daddy will pay for it, even if he does have to spend the balance of his life paying for a parlor suit. Why worry, you're using it. Any store down town will extend you credit if you tell them your husband is a Pullman Porter. They know that hubby will never quit shaking sheets until he gets it paid for or so. And there's another point of interest. And you are ready to do it. It is a certain thing that it beats falling out of bed in the morning before day and breaking your neck trying to catch a Hooper Avenue car for the Wilshire district. It beats busting suds, don't it?
You will never have to worry about rent. And when he's out on the road you can strut your stuff at 15th and Main just the same, can't you? He don't want you to sit up in the house and look at the four walls until he comes back. If you can keep his uniform pants from busting out at the knees, he can pass inspection on pay day, he will be satisfied.
Don't ask him now much he made as soon as he comes in off his run; that will make him hot. Take your time here, go slow, then wait later, after he goes to sleep, just politely help yourself; he hardly ever knows how much he has got to learn with him about the P. P. B. A. insurance, the fault, it is Mr. L. A. Coffin's fault, so pick on him. If he should happen to get ten days' for some minor offence on the road, do not fuss with him all the time he is in on them ten days, it's bad enough for him to have to serve them. Try taking him to a show once in while, and you pay the way even though you pay it out of his own money that you have held out on him the trip before, he will never know the difference and he will get a big kick out of him.
Use discretion and don't get careless. Have his bath hot when he comes in and by all means have his breakfast ready, especially M. E. Jackson. If he plays the Chinaman, well, what of that? Better let him do that than pick the papers up and read about where Sheffield got him in a raid. Help him to save. Nothing is more encouraging to a railroad man than to see his bank account growing. You're going to get it all anyhow. There are many ways to save; for instance, if hubby comes in this tri

with only $4.60, you pay the telephone bill with $3.75 of it, buy 50 cents worth of hamburger, give him the remaining 35 cents to go out on and you have dinner with the neighbor next door.
The next day make the balance of the hamburger do, and by that time he will be back home again, and you will be off for a fresh start. That's what I call SAVING, and if you get Jim Montgomery, you are very likely to have to do it.
You have given you about all the best time that I know, and in the event of you finding these plans do not work, just write, let me know and I will get C. W. Murdock to get you a divorce in less time than it takes in Paris. You know nothing beat a trial but a failure, so you can pick on the following men if the others that I have named do not suit you:
H. L. Armstrong, now operating on the San Diego Owl. Never misses a trip. Cross as a bear when he comes in, but meek as a lamb when he goes out. Tight at times. Ten years in the service and gets a free uniform. On the market for a woman weighing about 115 Pounds. Very fond of sweet potatoes.
R. Hicks, also operating on the San Diego Owl, owns a nice Paige car and a nice quite quiet man, steady and reliable. One girl has already got her eyes on him, but you can never tell.
E. Sorsby, running extra, tighter than Dick's hat band. The last time he opened up his pocketbook was when he bought H. K. Blackstone five gallons of gas and at that particular time a MOTH was seen to fly from his pocketbook.
Joe Howard: Good manifif you can get him, but he is rather shy at present and would need an awful lot of coxing. Good provider and steady.
Big Bill Williams: Owns a barber shop at 35th and Central Ave., and has been a bachelor for a number of years. Still runs on the road, and needs a woman to look out after his interest while he is out on the road. A little stingy but will open up if the right one gets a hold of him.
G. W. Betha, wild as a young Mustang. Liberal and likes a good time. Has a car and every facility for enjoyment. If you get him, you plan for the pleasure and let the future take care of yourself. Angements can be made by telephone.
H. W. Weeks: Just go on down town and buy a license and meet the train when he comes in and ask for Mr. Weeks; then tell him he belongs to you, because you bought and paid for him. You will not have any trouble, and he will follow you home like a little lamb.
W. Jones: The boys all know what the W. stands for. Hard egg, and rather shy. Been bit cree, and will have to be convinced that it is a good bargain the next time. Steady worker. Gets free uniform and knows more about Chinatown than the Mayor of Los Angeles. A member of the Chinese Tong and speaks the language; likes rice and is an artist with a pair of chop sticks. This is the end of the Matrimonial Church. We are angel to be out of town while these articles are being published, as I am afraid it will be too hot for me here. I sincerely hope that none of the boys whose names are mentioned will take these articles to heart, and waylay me with a club—but the girls have been repeatedly writing: me, inquiring about who is single in the Los Angeles District, and it had to be——EVERY TUB.
FRESNO
The walls of the new Bethel A. M. E. Church have reared themselves skyward and the new edifice when completed will be one of the most beautiful in West Fresno. The building is being erected under the personal supervision of the energetic pastor, Rev. Fred A. Hughes.
Mr. and Mrs. Murphy of Los Angeles, the former a clerk in the postal service, and Police Officer and Mrs. Randolph, composed a congenial party who motored up from the Southern metropolis to join Police Officer and Mrs. M. B. Sheffield, who were spending Labor Day with the former's brother and wife, Mr. and Mrs. S. O. Sheffield. Mr. and Mrs. J. Evans Trigg entertained a large dinner in compliment to the distinguished visitors, the guests motorming out to their picturesque country place on Olive avenue. The after dinner hours were given to whist.
Mrs. William A. Bigby, Jr., returned home last Sunday afternoon, after spending the summer at Santa Cruz and the Bay Cities. Returning in the same observation car were Mrs. Sam C. Hannibal and her daughter, Miss Rose Hdnibnal, who is convalescing from a recent seyre illness.

becomes a very interesting exclusive clique. They will meet an afternoon of each week to while away the hours over the card tables and tea cups. Otis Edmundson has returned from an extended engagement in Oakland, where he played in one of the orchestras. A large number of the young set motored to Sacramento, Labor Day to attend the picnic. The Labor Day Ball given by the Drill Corps of Pilgrim Rock Lodge, No. 10335 at Garibali Hall was a grand success. A party including Mrs. RoRbeRrt Walker, Hugh Dangerfield, Mr. Whitmore and Royce Gilham motored through last Sunday en route to Bakersfield from Oakland.
ERECT STATUE TO UNDERGROUND RAIL ROAD HERO
(By A. N. P.)
Detroit, Mich. Sept. 9.—It is quite singular but true that instead of erecting a "black mammy" statue as a monument to the Negro slave as some cities are wont to do, a tablet was unveiled here a few days, ago which marks the spot where once stood the famous old Seymour Finley's Hotel which was the Detroit Station of the "Underground Railway" through which many slaves passed to freedom.
Seymour Finney, proprietor of this hotel and the institution, in reference of the Furious Slave Law, housed and fed and secretly passed hundreds of runaway slaves who were able to reach this town over the border into Canada and freedom.
It is said that when a bunch of escaped slaves arrived in Detroit or vicinity usually at night, they would be concealed in outlying woods or forests until Mr. Finney could be notified, then they would be brought to Finney's barn and kept until the next night at which time they would be carried through various alleys to the river front and rowed across to Canada.
This formed a part of what was known as the "Underground Railway," so called because of the underhanded way used to "bootleg" slaves to freedom. The Underground Railway was a secret society organized for this specific purpose, and was not a secret passageway trunnelled under the earth as many have supposed.
