VOLUME 40
FORMER
Mrs. Margaret Mitchell who was employed at 3311 Edgewood Drive met with a peculiar accident which resulted in her death at the home of her employer on the evening of November 27th.
It seems that Mrs. Mitchell in taking her bath had the gas heater going and in the closeness of the room, the fumes caused her to collapse and her death was caused by inhaling the fumes of carbon or in other words monoxide poisoning. The accident was not discovered until the following morning when the body was then removed by the Copier who issued a certificate of accidental death from the causes mentioned above. Later on the body was moved to the parkers of the Connor and Johnson Undertaking Company and shipped to her former home at Topeka, Kansas.
Mrs. Mitchell was a prominent citizen of the Capital City of Kansas and at times was employed as a teacher in the public schools of that city. She was very popular, well known and highly respected and truly a worker for the betterment of mankind.
ROLAND HAYES' SONGS ENCHANT
Roland Hayes' is a powerful mind endowed with strong poetical sensitiveness. If it be possible his work is even more poetical than musical. One critic has said that Roland Hayes' music is the music of the future.
The audience at the Academy of Music on Wednesday evening, Nov. 21, 2014, was a former audiences was a mixed one and a very appreciative one. It was at first slow to respond to the great tenor who opened his program with "Selve Amiche" from the seventeenth century and "Eviva Rosa" from the eighteenth century. Mr. Hayes rendered these with ease, naturalness and vivacity. His closing number in the first group was "Ah Splietato" from the Opera "Amadigi" (Handel). He was greeted with applause at the end of this group, and aroused to warmth his heart. "Would You Gain the Tender Grace".
The audience was completely won by the rendition of this.
In the second group (German), Mr. Hayes rendered "A Boatman's Hymn to the Twin Stars," "Secret," and the "The Town." Two of Brahms works were sung: "The Lender" and "The Drowned Night." But particularly well, but it was in his rendering of the English group of songs that his voice rose to the heights. Truly, he subordinates the voice to articulate speech, and for fear lest the music should take flight he virtually clips her wings. For dramatic effect his singing of "Lamont of the River" was the most desired. "Rose of the Night" (heard before by Philadelphia audiences) "Dreamy Lake" and "In a Myrtle Shade" clearly showed how well Mr. Hayes interprets his songs. The idea of the piece is grand. He was enriched and rendered very thoughtfully one of the favorites "Water Boy." His voice on the Night was much interested in the group of Negro spirituals rendered by Mr. Hayes in view of the fact that he was singing three of his own arrangement two of which have been heard here before "Lit'L David" and "Camp Meetin'", "Zion, Weep-a-lew" made a profound impression on his audience, and there was evidence of sailing to the coast.
The enthusiastic audience waited for another number at the close of Mr. Hayes' interesting program, and they were well repaid for he gave (with an aesthetic study of the religious world) "Wade in the Water."
The enthusiastic audience waited William Lawrence, as his accompanist, lends much to an artistic program.
The affair was under the personal direction of Mrs. Carl Diton.

Commander Newton St.
Station Host at Big
Thanksgiving
Dinner
On last Thursday Thanksgiving Day, Captain L. M. McLarey was host to a big Thanksgiving Dinner at the Newton Street Station. The long table was beautifully decorated with bars of cheese, cello, one could have easily wrist-wrapped themselves in the Biltmce, Alexandria or Ambassador. And then above all, there was present that pure and undefiled spirit of democracy. Special invited guests for the occasion were present in the persons of Dr. W. R. Carter, Superintendent of Negro for the Baptist denomination; W. H. Sawler, representing the East Side organization of which he is president and J. B. Bass, representing the ness.
Captain McLarey stated to his officers assembled that it was the purpose of the department to keep in touch with all movements for a better and more efficient service and that he had as his guests men who co-ordinated to the utmost with the department to give thanks for the food called upon to give thanks for the food and from that time on all present exhibited the ability to do full justice to the occasion.
We are much pleased at the attitude of the Newton Street Commander for this spirit of keeping in touch with the people of his bailiwick; and by joining forces with all who stand in the parcel of the movement that this section shall occupy a place second to no other for the object stated.

A PAPER WITH A HEART AND SOUL
By: A. FERDINAND CADREZ
The new building at 3315 Central avenue, new nearing completion under the supervision of Architect C. Smith and constructed by J. C. Broussard is unique in many ways. This suite of offices embraces all of the latest features necessary for the treatment of diseases of man, Light, and others. The rooms are unexcelled; sterilization and other elements of safety for the patients security are unsurpassed. The building is fireproof and no expense has been spared in securing the very best. The walls are hard decorated and woodwork Mahogony, adding elements of beauty unsurpassed among our group in the city, and equalling those of the building at Los Angeles, barring none, with the added advantage of being on the ground floor.
Dr. M. J. Marmillon, one of the best Fearme Specialists in the city, who is practicing the unique system of curing many baffling diseases without resorting to the knife, will occupy this special building on or about the 1st of December. It is hoped that in the near future a clinic will become a part of these modern facilities. The public is cordially invited to inspect the conveniences offered. The 'NEW DAY,' for the group in the city, indicating a desire for better things and putting forth a strategic effort to secure something of the "Better Nature." Central Avenue may now boast of having a real group Doctor's office, one that may be indicated to visitors without shame. It is hoped that other substantial buildings of our people will soon be gracing the Avenue.
Washington, D. C., Nov. 28—Chas. S. Hill, a member of the District of Columbia, Bar, has been sentenced to serve from 1 to 3 years in the penitentiary as a result of pleading guilty to the charge of his use of $7,500 of funds which had been intrusted to him by the Elks of this city. Hill was an elk attorney and a check for $13,000 had been drawn to be transmitted to a title company on the purchase of real estate. He offered to take the property. He was informed to his order. He placed it to his own credit and drew against it to the extent of $7,500.
GIRL. FIFTEEN HELD FOR MURDER
Washington, D. C., Nov. 28—Dorothy Jackson, just fifteen years old, said by police to be married, but separated from mher husband, is held in custody by the police being charged fh murder. The police state that the girl has admitted to them that she shot Harriet Monroe, eighteen years old, on the night of October 17, in the hallway of a house near Fifty-fourth and "G" streets Nrthwest.

The Los Angeles Choral Society, under the direction of Mrs. Clara Hulbert, featuring Mr. Frederick Skinner, phenomenal tenor, for the benefit of the Second Baptist Church building fund, scored a signal success in their initial concert at Philharmonic Auditorium on last Tuesday evening. The choir Choris lived up to its advance reputation and performed in faultless manner, complete harmony was ever present and stamps the director as a musical genius of the first water.
The numbers rendered by Mr. Frederick Skinner were superb and were well received by the large audience, which was most generous in its applause. It was the condolences of opinion that Mr. Skinner has before him wondered how he would work with its wide gaze and exquisite expression wiped the plaudits of the people.
JERIO
The spiritual "Walls of Jerico," led by Mra. A. C. H. Bilbrow, stole the show and Mra. Bilbrow, was called forth time and aggrand and the chorus did the unusual of responding to an encoce. Bear in mind however, that the feat of this great artist reflects in no manner on any of the prose of the book. Bilbrow star among stars in the physical firmament at any time or place.
Mrs. Clara Huber is entitled to unstained praise for the presentation and marks her own success in the promotion of musical efforts.
The story of the Old Testament from Creation to the Songs of Solomon; the most talked of picture of time, produced in the Holy Land at a cost of $3,000,000.00 with 600 principals and 50,000 persons in the mob scene which took five years to make, will have its first run in the court of the U Tennant Jefferson and Central Ave., beginning Thursday, December 16th, showing at 7 and 9 P. M., each evening with matinees Saturday and Sunday. It was the writer's pleasure to witness a pre view of this colossal and most wonderful picture and we are frank to say that it not only lives up to its advanced reputation but completely presents in all of its reality the story of the Creation. Scene upon scene invigilously fixes upon the realization of the story told in the Holy writ. No one who reads or who has heard the story told can afford to miss seeing this great picture. It is truly a masterpiece and worth ten times the price of admission to see it. It is highly endured by all religious and civic organizations and when it is started at the A-Muse-U Theatre we predict a record house at all performances.
The management of the above incident is congratulated upon securing this first western run picture for the delectation and benefit of its patronage.
PASSING OF THE REV. MRS. G. A. GOINGS

2. That our Alliance tends to our bereaved brother, Rev Dr. Going, our deeds and sincere sympathies with him, and the relatives of our dearest sister, in this hour of affliction.

Committee: Rev. Dr. Johnson; Dr. W. H. Reider; Dr. H. D. Proud.
Los Angeles, Calif, Nov. 26, 1926
Mr. C. R. McFadden,
Mary Lou Los Angeles News"
382 E. 88th St, City,
Dear Sir.
The Interdenominational Ministers' Alliance desires to make known its position relative to an article which appeared in your paper Friday, Nov. 19th inst. under caption "Colored Preacher speaks at Meeting." In the alleged address, the Rev. W. A. Venerable countenanced, encouraged, and offered to work for segregation in wholesale of the colored people. Concerning this, the Alliance would be right to his estimate of himself, and also his opinion on all matters, and therefore Mr. Venerable's stand goes without our concern or interference, as an individual.
On the other hand, as a Christian Organization, composed of plain law abiding American citizens, who believe in the Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man, we do not believe in nor endorse the sentiments expressed by the Rev. W. A. Venerable, who did not allow him to be now resigned, and he has asked for his resignation as our secretary. As American citizens we stand for, and expect nothing more nor less than that guaranteed all our fellow citizens under the Constitution and before the law.
Requesting that you make known our position we are, dear air,
Fairly yours,
INTERBENOMINATIONAL MINISTERS ALLIANCE.
TO WHOM IT MAY MONCY
Rev. W. A. Venerable, Pastor of the Ebenesher Baptist Church, Los Angeles, delivered an address, Thursday evening, November 16th, to the Freemont Improvement Association, an organization of white people, having as one of its objects the keeping of Negroes, Japanese, in fact all people who do not happen to be white, out of the territory bounded by Slusson, Manchester, Central Avenue and Main Street. In this address the Rev. Mr. Williams is allied to the unchorted segregation of the races, separate schools for Negroes and whites. He branded the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People as an organization in the hands of politicians for the purpose of vote-getting. He advocated a campaign of education to create sentiment for this movement for the positive segregation of the races. The races have lived in the South, knew what the result of race segregation is. It means inferior school buildings and equipment, inequality of accommodation on the railroads. In fact there are portions of the South where a Negro cannot secure Fullman accommodation, due to the unjust segregation of the race.
The interdenominational Ministers' Alliance wishes the public to know that all men are far from that expressed by the Rev W, W. A. Venable. The Alliance believes in the Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man, and therefore takes the position that no race should be discriminated against; that all men, regardless of race or color should have equal opportunities all like men. The Alliance committed to live any place they are financially able to live.
The Rev. Venerable's position is so far from that held by the Alliance that this body has requested his resignation as Secretary.
Faithfully,
THE INTERDENOMINATIONAL MINISTERS' ALLIANCE
Y, M. C. A.
Los Angeles, Nov. 24, 1926.
We, the members of the Welfare Committee of the Interdenominational Ministers' Alliance, beg leave to report the following:
1st. After a most careful and exhaustive careful and thorough attempt, attributed to the Rev. W. A. Venerable, as published in a newspaper known as "The South Los Angeles News," in its issue of Friday, Nov. 10, 1926, are substantially true as those of Mr. Venerable's delivered at a public meeting.
2nd. That the utterances referred to are damaging. That Mr. Venerable's statements were widely about the well-being and future of our group. And materially comfort encouragement and
assistance to ill-disposed members of the white people who despise, would segregate, and otherwise miss-use and all-treat us as Negroes. 3rd. That Mr. Venerable's position, in acting in public print, is altogether out of harmony with Christianity, and should be, and is hereby, repudiated.
RECOMMENDATIONS
1. We recommend a special Committee to be appointed by the President of this organization to make known to the "South Los Angeles News" our position as American Citizens, as against that of the M. Venerda's," and that the same printed in the next issue of that paper.
2. We further recommend that the statements of Mr. Venerable as printed in "The South Los Angeles News" and also the findings and the action taken by the Interdenominational Ministers' Alliance be printed in all the Colored papers of this city.

POLITICIANS GET JAIL SENTENCE
POLITICIANS GET JAIL SENTENCE
(By: A. N. P.)
Philadelphia, Pa. Nov. 25—Harry L. Wachs, Republican worker of the 40th district of the 24th, Wachs had been sentenced to two years in prison and must pay a fine of $1,000. Wachs had pleaded guilty to false registration. It appeared that he was the dominating factor in the forgery of forty-six signatures on the division registration books, and upon investigation, found that the listing contained only one hundred names. Several colored workers were implicated in the fraud. Liebie B. Robinson pleaded guilty to the charge of registering votes unlawfully and has been sentenced to three months in the county prison, testimony being brought out that Robinson registered about thirty persons in his district to vote. He was arrested and Clarence Gross and Lewis Linzer all of the same neighborhood, were also arrested, but charges against the three last named were nolle probed.
Somerville, N. J.-Thirteen persons who have been connected with the famous Hall-Mills murder investigation or trial have died since the slaying of the amorous young choir singer and her pastor-lover.
Philadelphia—Rev. Alonzo Ray Petty, pastor of Grace Baptist Temple, in his honor that week said, Youth is trying to teach these young world has to offer overnight. They have seen when they are 18 or 19 years old."
Java—This country is said to be very picturesque with the many beautiful lakes, rivers, streams, forests and mountains. The jungles on top of the mountains are alive with tigers, although the ordinary traveler through the country will never see one.
Philadelphia—As a result of Judge McDevitt's recent criticism of police for bringing bartenders before him as defendants in saloon raids, the Director of Public Safety issued orders to his raiders to arrest the employer rather than employees.
New York—In a third alleged attempt to kill his wife for her insurance money, an investigator for a Michigan banker had the banked in the East River roundly. The inn's wife took open the door of the automobile and jumped into the street. Flames rescued her husband who was arrested.
In reply to the numerous letters and telephone calls received in protest to our stand in commenting on the waste of money in the purchase and wection of churches, we will say: No, we are not opposed to churches. We stand that we deemed them essential as "one of the mediums of racial progress." Neither are we inclined to atheism though we do plead guilty, slipping, and the birds chant the anthems accompanied by the music of the giant trees under the masterful touch of their Creator, and where we can template calmly on the foibles and hypocrisies of life and worship God. x—xx—x
The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament showeth His handiwork. So sang the Hebrew poet centuries ago. It was taught us in youth and remembered in maturer years. We reiterate the statement, that the four wall of brick meters even when the form is not constructed, nor awaken other than helpful thought, but, if we have stirred the leaders of our religious and moral lives to some constructive thinking, we are satisfied. In the language of the street: "And that's THAT!"
We have done splendid in getting racial representation in the state legislatures. Illinois heads the list with 5. New York and Missouri follow with 2 each. California and Nebraska contribute 1 each. Don't become discouraged. By'm by ketchum congressman. It has been 30 years since a Negro was elected to a Nebraska legislature. It is the time that the legislature begins to swing back. The days of Rainey, Bruce, Small and the prior coterie of Negro legislators may be repeated, with this addition, increased INTELLIGENCE.
x-xx-x
Opportunity, for the Negro farmer, is gradually closing its door in the State of California. The Middleern farmer and the foreign immigrant are seeing the great possibilities of the state and seeing up desirable land. Soon the Negro farmer will wake up, but then, it will be too late. Products of the State are being shipped to the Orient to compete with Oriental productions. The markets of the nation bid for its fruits. Go where you will, on some shelf, in foreign clothing, in some production of California's soil. Preserved California fruits and vegetables find a market over world. Come Mr. Negro Farmer! Come to California! And bring with you INTELLIGENCE AND MONEY!
Household of Rush, 561,
Gives Reception
The members of Household of Buth,
No. 561, gave a rousing reception to
its delegate to the Grand Lodge and
to the National Meeting recently held
in Pittsburgh, Pa.
The members and friends turned
out in large numbers and paid their
respects for the occasion.
Mrs. Martinez as Mistress of Cermonies presented a highly creditable program which was enjoyed by all Miss Gray as a reader made a lasting impression when she so vividly read the poems of Philips McMullen, M. Naupin Wilburn gave a most wonderful addition to which was responded to in like manner by Mrs. O. A. Wilson, other musical numbers, to Miss Martinez, and Miss Weakland were highly creditable indeed.
The delegates honored were: Mrs. Sadie Alexander; Mrs. M. Bates and National Grand Treasurer, Mrs. Warner. Other honored guests were: Mrs. D. Batson, Mrs. G. Erie D. Batson, Mrs. G. Simmons, Mrs. D. G. T.; Imahish Robinson, Mrs. M.; J. B. Bass, P. D. G. M.; L. M. Cover, D. G. D.
At the conclusion of the program presentation of flowers were made each delegate, also to each group, to formulate the group with the presiding past officers. Household No. 511 is a new record for fraternal office in this occasion.
Win that Kansas Turkey at the 511 day Morning Club Dancer, Jan. 8 at Urban League Center.

"I know that those will maintain the cause of the afflicted and the right of the poor." Pa. 140112.
This psalm of David was dedicated to the "chief musician" and was therefor written after he had become King of all Israel and organised the choirs of the Tabernacle worship. He therefore knew life as a poor laborer, as a social outcast and political outlaw and as a rich and royal ruler of a mighty nation. David had known trouble in all its forms and affliction in all its phases.
Moreover he spoke by the Spirit, the Spirit of the Lord, the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of Knowledge and fear of the Lord—the seven fold Spirit of God. Isa. 11:1-10, Rev. 3:1.
The words of our text therefore are tried words, true and faithful. They are full of consolation to the believer and show us to whom to go and on whom to depend in our present and coming trials and distresses.
I. The Knowledge of a tried faith,
"I know that the Lord will maintain
the cause of the afflicted. Faith realizes, knows, becomes certain. There are things about the help and consolations of religion that the believer can know. God invites us to try Him to acquaint ourselves with Him and be at peace. The heart can know. Get knowledge in divine matters. I Know."
II. God's help of the afflicted. "I know that the Lord will maintain the cause of the afflicted and the right of the poor."
There are various kinds of affliction. There is the fliction of injustice: When one is treated wrong and unkindly, hated without a cause, maligned in the newspapers, lives under the burden of a constantly perverted public sentiment denied the benefits for which he is taxed, driven from the doors of public places of service and comfort, without regard to personal decency and refined behavior, it is an affliction hard to bear. "Oppression maketh the wise man mad" said the book of divine wisdom. It does all right.
"But He that is higher than the highest regardeth, and there be higher than they than." Ecc. 5-8. Heavens degree only needs time for fulfillment, and what men sow they reap; while there is a glorious compensation for every ill endured.
Then there is the affliction of poverty and deprivation. O how it sometimes tries the soul to see others pass with the haughtines sof pride and plenty and vaunt their success or good fortune while, you labor and strive and then have but little—while often the soul is worried how to meet the rent or meet the payments in this or that, or the furniture must go back. It is an affliction on the soul. It tests you out. I admit it. But take your cause to heaven, to Jehovah, to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. He will help you. He will maintain your cause. I know,for I have tried him. David had and he knew. I have and I know. The Lord will maintain your cause.
Then there is the affliction of accident and disease. Be it on you or on those you love, it burdens life, it takes away the usefulness and joy of existence, it blasts hope and destroys ambition, it makes unhappy day and night and helps the specter of poverty to frighten the soul. There is help against it up yonder. The soul that knows the way to God knows the way to help and health and holiness and power. Amen. I would like to give you many instance so this by way of illustration, but I may not for time will not allow.
III. The right of the poor.' The poor do they get their rights? The rich, the important get two months trial in court where two hours would settle it for a poor person,—maybe not so long. It makes one fear that laws are not made to give justice, but to afford employment and emolument to lawyers. Ah, Lord God, thou knowest. What can we say?
Ah, the right of the poor. What you get in this world must be fought for, no matter if it is yours, by franchise and constitution and legal statute and what not. Now money can't fight but it can hire fighters. Who then is to maintain the right of the poor. They have no money. No imposing wealth is a wall about them or

Say, do you know the people of Watts are coming to the front. Mr. Frederick Skinner will make his appearance before the public displaying his wonderful talent November 30th at the Philharmonic Auditorium as a star for the future in the Choral Club, and then he leaves for a tour of the big titles.
The choir of A. M. E. Church rendered a livey program on the 27th inst to a full house. Rev. Scott was delighted to see how each one tried to do their best. We must say everybody of intelligence tries to make their church workers do their best; we have everything to encourage the young people to look up.

Chicago, Ill. Nov. 26—The Sixth Annual Convention of the Pullman Porters Benefit Association of America was held here. Sixty-two elected delegates coming from all the larger districts embraced by Pullamn service, including representatives from Montreal, on the northwest; Jacksonville, Fla., on the southeast; Seattle, Wash. on the northwest, and Los Angeles, Cal. on the southwest, gathered for the annual meeting. These 62 elected delegates were the duly elected and authorized representatives of 8468 Pullman porters and shop employees who are members of this Association. The address of welcome was delivered by Mr. Perry Parker, the Grand Chairman, and responded to by Mr. Henry Pope, Jr., of Nashville, Tenn. On the evening of November 16th, a public reception was held for the delegates in the Y. M. C. A., 37th street and Wabash avenue, which was largely attended and hugely enjoyed by the delegates, their families and host of friends in attendance.
On Wednesday evening, November 17th, a banquet was tendered by the officials of the Association to the delegates in the beautiful Fort Dearborn Elks Club, 3920 South Parkway, at which director I. F. Smith of Chicago was the Toastmaster, and Mr. George Arthur, Secretary of the Y. M. C. A. was the guest of honor. The high point in Mr. Arthur's address was "Be loyal to yourself and in being so, loyal to the Association."
In the daily sessions of the convention, reports were read from all departments of the Association and from each of the Local Lodges thereof, and many matters of interest and of importance to the membership were discussed, considered and 'passed on. Throughout the convention the prevailing spirit as emphasized in many of the addresses was loyalty to the Association, loyalty to the Pullman Company and continuance of friendly co-operation between the company and its employees. The annual elections were conducted on the afternoon of Saturday, November 20, with the following results: Perry Parker was re-elected Grand. Chairman by acclamation; the following directors were re-elected: I. F. Smith, Central Zone; T. A. Crenshaw, St. Louis Zone, and S. J. Freeman, New York Zone. J. M. Brown, porter of the Pennsylvania Terminal District, was elected Vice-Chairman, succeeding L. A. Coffin, Porters' Instructor of the Los Angeles District. O. E. Robinson was re-elected Grand Secretary.

OUTLOOK-GOOD FOR DISTRICT
The general outlook for the Los Angeles district at the present writing looks very good as far as steady work is concerned. With the many different lines and additional cars on some trains, prosperity to a small extent is certain; from the two year man on up to the five year man conditions have improved, and they are now able to speak above a whisper and hold a line without fear of being bumped off by Bumping Brown or some other rolling stone of the district. There are any number of lines now that a two year man can hold, and a five and six year man is setting pretty. Two years ago no one in this district would have expected to see such men as Otto Johnson, Starkes and a few others that I could mention on such trains as the "Owl" nevertheless they are there now and it looks as if they are there to stay. It is a common remark that nobody wishes to grow old, but the seniority list changes this aspect, everyone wishes to grow old as far as your right is concerned.
HIGH OFFICIALS PAY LOS ANGELES
General manager of The Pullman Company, Mr. F. L. Woods, Mr. Philager, service inspector, were looking Los Angeles over last week. A general meeting which was held in San Francisco recently called in Mr. Shores, Asst. Supt. L. A., Mr. Arthur, Supt. L. A., Mr. French, Platform Agent, Santa Fe, Mr. V. V. Ross, Platform Agent, Southern Pacific, Mr. Conors, Chief Clerk, Mr. R. W. Taylor, 2nd Asst. Supt. L. A., Mr. For of El Paso. It has been a long time since Mr. Ross has been up to Frisco, and the boys are wondering what it is all about.
PROF. BOTTS HERE ON BUSINESS
Prof. Botts, investigator for The Pullman Co., was in the city last week attending to matters of the company. While here Mr. Botts looked up several porters with a view of putting them to work out of Portland. He also attended the P. P. B. A. meeting which was held here Wednesday.
PILLOW SLIPS
The S. P. Red caps have been giving vent to their feelings to E. L. Arm and for panning them about the way they fall for the Fifth Street Jim Crow lunch room. E. L. Armand almost ran afoul of the law recently when he undertook to carry some sugar cane back to the States from Mexico. Mr. E. L. Armand has been appointed assistant Railroad Clatter reporter so watch the reporters make more money in the sign out office than they do on the road that is verbally.
Miss Vivan Kochinsesy from Chicago is the house guest of Mr. E. L. Arnaud.
"On making a survey of the bidding list it was found that there are 58 lines up for bid at the present time. Have you got what you want? If not get busy and bid. W. B. Hoffland, T. Bradley and J. F. Howard have been awarded the 79 car on the "Lark."

Line 685 is up for bid, and there are
four vacancies in line 601$^{1/2}$.
L. C. Busby is shooting at line 685.
How come? Busby!
Frank Jasper is trying to sell his house at 1208 E. 33 St., which is income property and a good buy. Call around and look it over.
Many have wondered why they cut the new car on the Phoenix line out at Cvote Wells. It is on account of The S. D. and A. being unable to pull it over the hump. However it may not last long as they are figuring on putting on another train in the near future.
W. E. Marshall, a recent temporary transfer from Montreal here, is about to return to his former district after spending the summer. He says he has too much Eskimo blood in him to stay here.
When is T. D. Starks going to learn how to play pool?
Mr. Dan Hood, the writer, will be around to your house in the near future to get that subscription.
A dead head gang left San Francisco last week on the stumper after taking up thanksgiving patrons. The lucky tourist car porter who had them was Coleman, and he says he wished all the travelling public was like them, so they must have been red hot. This is the bunch that came down, J. L Sykes, J. Carter No. 2 and W. Carter, J. A. Lee, A. S. Lee, T. D. Starks, A. S. Lewis, A. L. Arnaud, Dick Bradley, W. V. McCall. The porter said the only snake in the bunch was J. Carter No. 1.
Quarters for Maids operating on The Gold Coast Limited to. Ogden have been established at 2683 Wall St., and maids arriving at that point may avail themselves of accommodations.
Maid Alleen Matthews who has been off for some time has returned to her former run on the De Luxe.
Maid Tenie Upton is still on the sick list.
UNION PACIFIC WAITERS SING DE LUX BLUES
The boys on The De Lux are singing 'a mould and long, trying to make both ends meet with the few patrons they are carrying to and fro on the fashionable train. Things have reached such a stage that a letter of protest was about to be filed with the D. C. Department for one night only in the windy city. After much discussion both pro and con, it was decided that one night would not be enough for so long a run and it was dropped for the time being. But as we go to press 90 per cent are in favor of cutting out at West Chicago.
Edgan C. Mosley, formerly pantryman on dinner 304, has severed his connections with the company.
Haywood Perry, I. O. U. king of dinner 385, is off again for some unknown reason.
Quite a few of the old familiar faces have been seen since The Gold Coast has been put on.
A number of those star waiters who have always had a great desire to be classed as Stars, can easily secure an exalted position on the "De Lux."
Henderson Jenkins was an uninvited guest to a thanksgiving dinner The reason he forgot to make connections at Columbus.
Calif. Jack of No. 396 has transferred his interest from Shy to Suny Calif.

L. A. Playground and Recreation Department
A city wide tennis association, composed of tennis groups in nearly every section of the city, is being organized under stuples of the Los Angeles Playground and Recreation Department. With sanction of the Southern California Tennis Association, the new municipal association will hold an open championship tournament in January on the playground cement courts now being constructed, in Griffith Park.
Local municipal club contests will be encouraged, these to be followed by sectional contests to end in the city-wide tournament. A corps of umpires and linesmen are to be trained by the department and these will be officially recognized.
A number of tennis clubs are already sponsored by the playground department. Hollywood telephone exchange girls now play at Poinsettia recreation grounds on Monday. A tennis tournament is under way at Ross Snyder playground. A new tennis club has been formed among employees of the Los Angeles Gas and Electric Corporation.
x-xx-x
Christmas "parties" and pageants are being arranged at the various municipal playgrounds by the department of dramatics and pageantry of the Los Angeles Playground and Recreation Department. The programs are already under rehearsal by hundreds of boy, girl and adult participants and many of them will be of such magnitude and color as to attract many special visitors to the play fields.
x-xx-x
Playground attendance at municipal recreation centers is at present exceeding that of the summer vacation period. The establishment of new records is attributable to the fact that since last spring there has been a rapid development of better programs than ever before undertaken and the Los Angeles Playground and Recreation Department is coming in more intimate touch with the residents of the districts where there are playgrounds. This week the attendance at the chief recreation areas maintained by the city approximated 60,000, Ross Snyder Playground having reached a daily average of 1,478 children and adults.

The action of the Reverend Venerable in joining forces with the enemies of his own race has been rightfully rebuked by his own brethren of the cloth. Their action was not hasty at all, but was taken after due investigation and consideration. His expulsion as Secretary of the Interdenominational Ministers' Alliance was by practically a unanimous vote for conduct unbecoming a minister and branded as an enemy to his own people.
We commend the body for this act. The sooner the other organisations clean house of this sort of character the sooner will we be in a position to present a solid and worth while front to the enemy. The position of fighting for a principle from within and without is an unequal task, therefore the quicker that all race traitors are unhorsed the quicker results will be obtained.
We do not agree with some of our most militant friends when they speak of horse whipping and applying tar and feathers to this gentry, for we are against mob rule under all circumstances, we are for law and order. Therefore the remedy is to shun such animals and divorce them from being any part or parcel of our being. This is the better way.
In slavery time there was ever present the despicable traitor who would betray his brother in chains who sought freedom and we have them to day as evidenced in the conduct of the Rev. Venerable who sought to betray his race to the Fremont Improvement Association (a second edition of the Ku Klux Klan) whether for thirty pieces of silver or not, we have yet to learn, but his utterances when speaking before them shows that he was in for betraying them just the same.

C. and Mr. Holloway Smith, the visiting Iowa State football player was the honored guest of the Agenda. The purpose of this dane was to acquaint the colored students of U. C. with each other as well as to introduce a co-operative spirit between the Belle Letters of U. S. C. and the Agenda of U. C.
The feature of the dance was a brief program in which Mr. Bunche, president of the Agenda, gave a brief talk on the purpose of the gathering. Miss Curray gave a wonderful violin selection which was followed by a speech from Miss Ellsworth, president of the Belle Lettres. A delightful solo was rendered by Miss Muckelroy followed by a well interpreted reading from Miss Brown. Mr. Smith, the Iowa football player was then introduced and he gave a short talk in which he expressed his appreciation of the excellent welcome which the members of the Agenda were extending him. Atty. Tyler and his wife and Mrs. Robinson, along with a few others were sponsors of the affair.
The members of the Agenda deserve to be, congratulated upon the success and class of the dance. They proved to Los Angeles that the young colored people can give a first class affair and conduct themselves decently. This dance will go down as a tradition on the U. C., S. B., campus. Forward, Agenda! Forward!

Boys Accomplish Foodless Hits
A son and nephew of Wilson Bruthers, of barbecue fame, Central Avenue, informed an Eagle reporter of a feat accomplished by two boys, 20 years of age. These boys walked from Los Angeles to San Francisco averaging 50 miles per day and eating nothing on the trip. They only drank water. They accepted no auto lifts, and lost about twenty pounds each on t-shirt. The boys, who are physical culture followers, are vegetarians. They report that they felt fine at the

PHILADELPHIA ROYAL GIANTS SLIDE BACK TO SECOND PLACE
After holding a tight grip on the top notch of the Winter League line up so far this season, the Philadelphia Royal Giants dropped back to second place Sunday. Doc Crandall's White Kings seemed to get the Giants' number last Sunday and took both games of the double-header from them. This drops tem back to second place in a tie with the Shell Oilers for spot No. 2. The Shell Oilers have come up to second place, through two defeats of Pirrone's All-Stars and this week's games will tell whether the Giants will have to give up second place to them and slip back to third or start up again to the top. Thanksgiving game, postponed on account of rain, was set for Thursday, Dec. 2nd, between the Giants and the Kings.
Saturday and Sunday Pirrone's All Stars will lock horns with the Phillies at White Sx Park, the League battle ground. And this is how the teams stack up at present:
White King Soaps ..... 8
Phila, Royal Giants ..... 7
Shell Oils ..... 7
Pirrone All-Stars ..... 7
Young Jack Thompson Is Taking Much Needed Rest
---
A
No alibis; no claims; no spiteful cracks about the referee—t h a t 's oung Jack Thompson when asked his own reasons for losing the decision in his fight with Russ Whelan at the Olympic Auditorium last week. "I was just tired, that's all," said the dapper Beau Brummel in his quiet, gentlemanly way. "Seemed like I just couldn't get going; didn't have any 'pep.' There were only two times during the fight that I felt like myself." And that is the whole story.
His capable and very efficient Tom Sielski says practically the same thing, so it must be so, for these two have a perfect understanding and are more than fighter and manager; they are pals.
Mr. Sielski has been able to keep in perfect touch with the "powers that be" and has been able to kee pJack so well supplied with fights that he has not had a rest spell between for a long time. He has really the boy's interest at heart and keeps in close touch with his mother and father of whom Jack is very proud. Their influence has helped to make Jack the clean liver he is and in January when he will be ready to go again he will be at his best, ready to cut a swash among the lightweights and junior welters.

Although Gertrude Ederle, the wonder girl has been earnestly solicited to come to California and enter in the great channel swim from Catalina Island to the mainland at the first of the year, she has refused the tempting bait held out.
Since her historical swim, it is true another woman has made the difficult crossing of the choppy English Channel, but her feat will always stand out as being the first time i history the difficult peak of athletic achievement has been attained by a member of the so-called weaker sex.
Peterson declares that in a very few years pheasant hunting will be had in Southern California, Over 3000 pheasant were brought to Southern California and released last month in various locations. The birds multiply fast and under protection by the state, should make ideal hunting in three to five years. In oLs Angeles County are three locations which in former years produced wonderful valley quail hunting. They are Mist, Bouquet and San Francisco canyfis. Good valley quail hunting also should be held around Hemet, Winchester, Elsinore and down through San Diego County to the Mexican border.
The quail limit is fifteen birds a day or thirty, in one week for desert and valley and ten birds a day or twenty a week for mountain quail. The rabbit limit is fifteen, a day or thirty a week with the execution of Hastet 4 of Southern California, where there is no limit.

HARRY WILLS MAY FIGHT HERE
Harry Wills, ex-contender for the heavyweight crown, which was worn so long by Jack Dempsey, may appear before the local followers of affairs pugilistic. If so, he will top Dick Donald's next out-door card and will
go against Gee, Godfrey or Hoben Smith. In the event that Wills is not occurred, Godfrey will probably be pitted against Smith.
Although age and lack of action beat Wills he is not yet in the discard and is getting plenty of offers. As the man who caused more pugilistic and political upheaval, more arguments, law suits, etc., in his chase of Dempsey than any former boxer, Wills would be a great attraction. Coupled with his fighting ability, and every one knows he can really fight in a "hit in clinches" bout; he would fill Wrigley Field and the optimistic Donald could come from behind the bad breaks he has gotten.
Threatening weather, postponement and a changed card caused him to call off Monday's bout owing to prospect of a small attendance.
BABY GANS WILL BEAT RUSS WHELAN 14TH INST.
On account of the quick ending of the main event between Mushy Callahan and Paul De Hate at Jack Doyle's arena Tuesday night, the semi-windup between Young Sam Langford and ofJnny Lamar furnished the principal entertainment of the evening. Lamar's hand was raised at the end of the fast battle but it should by all means have been a draw. Langford stumbled back in a fast exchange in the first round catching himself on

one hand which counted against him as a knock-down. But he easily evened matters up. by shooting hard straight lefts to Lamar's jaw.
Langford stumbled while running on the road a couple of weeks past and split open a finger on his right hand. It was not well and he could not use the hand to any advantage even though he ha dblenty of opportunities. But if referee Joe Rivers and Johnny Lamar were not of the same family as is stated he at least would have gotten a well earned draw. So he had to knock out of the season by pulling a one-minute knock out of the dangerous Paul De Hate, who has made a sensational rise this summer by heating good boys who Callahan did not beat. Jackie Sherman, a willing mixer and hard puncher lost to Benny Miller in a close decision.

On December 14th at the great Doyle's Vernon Arena, Mr. Gerald Slaughter better known as "Baby Gans" is going to present Mr. Russ Whelan, a chicago e tizen, with a "do your shopping early" Christmas present. And that same Christmas present is going to be a good, sound thrashing, maybe a knockout. And why this wise crack? you ask, and how do we know so much. Well, they are matched to fight ten rounds on one of the best cards the match-making artist, Wadham has lined up this year, and to meet will mean the loss of the prestige Whelan has gained, by beating the over-worked Jack Thompson, Tuesday before last, in the Olympic arena.
One reason Gans will beat him is because Gans fights somewhat on the same style as Whelan; on his toes Jabbing fast with his left and watching for the opening his opponent makes when he leads. Gans is great on countering and he will out-counter Whelan. Then he has had a good rest while recovering from an infected tooth and training daily is in tip-top shape. Thompson would have -beat Whelan too even though he fights a crowding open style; not much on the feinting and foot-work but keeping on his man till he finds the mark for that crushing right. He was too tired to keep up with the reverse speeding Whelan but Gans is fresh and will keep in close connection with him at all times. That the house will be a sell-out is a sure shot for Whelan s now considered as big a danger to the colored boys as Q'Brien was. So, although there is no Thompson, Gans will avenge the defeat of one of the three colored kings.
HOWARD SMOTHERS LINCOLN 32-0.
(By Associated Negro Press)
(By Associated Negro Press)
Washington, D. C., Nov. 25—Before a crowd which jammed to capacity the new Howard University Stadium, the Howard "Bisons" revenued their past grievances against the 32nd annual annual football classic of the Negro colleges of the United States, at Hearn University, Washington, D. C., on Thanksgiving Day, November 25th, 1926.
It was Howard's day, hTe team, which had gone through the entire season under the direction of Coach Watson with all victories, took Lincoln's scalp by steady, incessant hammering, scoring in every period, and gaining eighteen first downs to Lincoln's six, three of which were made on penalties to Howard. Howard completed three out of ten attempted forward passes for a gain of 56 yards, and Lincoln five out of eighteen for 29 yards. In scrimmage Howard gained 275% yards to the visitor's 35. Coles, C. Simth and Brown did stellar ground-gaining for the "Bisons," although there was no sensational running, while Thomas, Capt. V. B. Smith, and Rainey were towers of strength on the line.
Hibbler, Lincoln's quarterback, deserves no honorable mention, also Temple, the end, who connected with more than one pass and Captain Gratty, at tackle. But all in all it was not a game of outstanding individual achievements. Rather it was a stronger and faster Howard machine mowing down a weaker and less aggressive Lincoln ensemble. In the piling up of Howard's points C. Smith contributed two touchdowns, Coles contributed two more, and Simpson, eft end, added the other by leaping into the air to catch an aerial toss of 28 yards and racing 25 yards more for a touchdown—the only really sensational play of the game. Coles' toe was successful only in two of the tries for extra points after touchdown.

Washington, D. C., Dec. 1—The Hoard University Stadium was dedicated here Thanksgiving Day with impressive exercises, the least of which was not the 32-D defeat handed Lincoln by Howard, before thousands of graduates and friends of the two universities that are usually referred to as the leading colleges operated primarily by Negro youth. Prior to the game, which each year draws a crowd numbered well into the thousands, the assemblage made its way to the newly acquired athletic field. There exercises were held commemorating what was termed the highest achievement from an athletic standpoint in recent years, representing as it does the only stadium owned by a Negro college.

The fashionable Belmont Tea House was the setting for a brilliant dinner dance last Monday evening, when the members of the "Fovettes" observed their monthly "husbands night." The first part of the evening was given to cards, the guest later going into the main dining room where a long table was laid out with a delicious chicken dinner and all that goes with it. Dancing occupied the after dinner hours. The personnel of this lively club and their husbands include Messrs. and Mesdames Carl Moulden, Alex W. Clarke, Henry C. Wilkes, William A. Bigghy, Jr., Samuel L. Hannibal, Clarence Graves, Cossey Smith and Zenobia Edmondson-Bilow.
The Rev. and Mrs. Fred A. Hughes had with them as their distinguished house guests, over Thanksgiving, the latter's sister, Mrs. W. I. Dunlap and her winosm daughter from Sacramento.
A crowded house greeted the participants in the baby contest at Mt. Pleasant Baptist Church last Tuesday evening, and listened to an interesting musical and literary program under the direction of Mrs. William A. Bigby, Jr. The dominant feature of the evening was the preachers and deacons quartets, which were unusually amusing. Mrs. Emma Chance presented little Jesse Kimble with the first prize, little Joseph H. Dunlap, Jr., the second, little Melvin David Dixon, third and little Vernada Sims the fourth. The sum of $128.00 was realized from the contest.

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1926
TOO DOGGONE MUCH MOTHER-WIT
MRS. JETER DEFENDS HER ADMINISTRATION OFFICE AS TREASURER
"I ain't got no book learnin' but I got a doggone lot of mother-wit," said the President of E. L. Baker Audiary one evening at her home in giving vent to her elated feelings after being elected for the year 1926. But to prove it was only the shadow and not the substance of mother-wit she possessed, when it became necessary Committee in and the supporting Committee brought in the support that the Treasurer's books did not balance, and that there was $20.00 difference, the President, Emma Johnson, colored, had a number of others to examine the books. All said the same thing
—that the books did not balance and that there was $20.00 difference. All told the truth but none could say what there was that difference. Under the circumstances, it was impossible for the books to balance. The money was not drawn from the bank and had not been put in the bank. It was part of the receipts of the evening. At one time $9.54 was voted out, at another time $9.90 was voted out. Each time $10.00 was given to the secretary. As the money was not deposited in the bank, naturally the bank book did not show it. It was only necessary for this statement to be made on the cash book and Minute book. The treasurer was not present when the report was made, and before securing a statement from her, which was quite necessary, she was accused of stealing the money. And when she attended a meeting at a later date and attempted to state why the books did not balance, she was told by the President in speaking of her newly appointed Treasurer (one who before had been Treasurer): "I have a Treasurer now who won't steal, and one who won't let anybody else steal. Imagine the President of so worthy an Organization as a Spanish-American War Auxiliary expressing herself so comonly, and in the presence of some very intelligent ladies. There were some white ladies visiting and one of them told her she did not think there had been any money misappropriated, but that it was short-sightedness on the part of someone.
The next time this Treasurer attended a meeting after that was with a written statement requesting of the President, Emma Johnson and Senior Vice-President, Ida Taylor, a simple apology. I say "simple apology" because the President would have made such a one as her "Doggone Mother-Wit" would have afforded, which would have been very simple indeed. I don't know what kind of an apology the Senior Vice-President, Ida Taylor would have made, but judging from this insulting remark—"If it were me and I was accused of stealing anything from the Auxiliary, I would run my hands in my pocket and pay it and stop the argument"—her apology would have been just about as simple as the President's. However, no apologies were made, and as soon as the Secretary had finished reading the request, the President rapped her gavel and said: "That thing shall not come up on this Auxiliary Hall any more. That thing has been settled."
But nothing has been done on her part to bring about a settlement, and how can it be settled without the principal figure in the case knowing something about it? It was just another display of 'Mother-wit.' I didn't know before that there was a law to prevent one from defending one's self. I thought all laws gave one that privilege, regardless of what they are accused and I still believe they do: except that laws that are guided by 'Mother-wit' instead of common sense.
In speaking of the Treasurer who wouldn't steal (the woman who, to hear her talk, invented the Banking System; the woman who finds it necessary to show the Bookkeeper in the bank where to 'get off at' for making mistakes on her book) I am sure the President forgot the condition in which this woman, Sarah Snowden, once had the Auxiliary money when she was before Treasurer. She was supposed to have deposited the money in the First National Bank to the credit of E. L. Baker Auxiliary. But when the President with Secretary and the now accused Treasurer went to have the money arranged so these officers could handle it there was no money there to the credit of E. L. Baker Auxiliary. She had deposited the money in her own name and the President, Secretary and Treasurer were told by this Bank Official that only way they could claim the money was to secure her signature the same as in the bank or she must come in person to release it. The President Secretary and Treasurer delivered the message. It was just a matter of concealing her ignorance why the President did not let that Treasurer make a statement. She had made it appear that her accusation was true. She knew that if that Treasurer made a statement she would clear away the doubt in the minds of the members and that would reduce the height of her elevated feelings.
How well do I remember the words of the Department President on the night of the election of officers: 'Now sisters, you are about to choose a President. Whatever you do, choose your best. A very wise choice was made in the way of choosing a Social Autocrat. One who at the question of two years cannot perform a simple duty in the way of conducting the Auxiliary without the use of a body. It will soon be election time; and I hope the next President will be one with a "Dogonee lot of Commonense," instead of "Mother-wit." The prevalence of ignorance is the cause of the non-attendance of so

many of the intelligent women who have joined the Auxiliary. They joined because they realized the many branches of education that are contained and they desired to come in contact with people who know and who do things, but not to be dominated by ignorance.
My dear friends and loyal citizens of South California:
I am surprised and dumbfounded at the overwhelming stupidity of some of our citizens who are opposed to the division of California into two separate states. Many of our opponents thereof voice their sentiments against such a movement in a manner that would cause an ignorant person to believe that such a project were an act of secessionism: Cannot such people see for themselves that which is throttling our fair Southland? The people of Southern California and the people of Northern California have no more in common than the people of Florida and the people of Maine.
There are fifteen gubernatorial divisions of our Atlantic Coast which elect their own governors and send their own representative to Congress and the Senate and does any person believe for a moment that the citizens of Florida would for one moment tolerate the unkeep of roads and institutions in Maine with Florida's tax money? As long as our citizens of the roses and palms send their taxes to keep up the roads and institutions of the snowdrifts and boulders of the frozen north just that long will our fair Southland lie parched and sun-stered for the lack of the waters from Boulder Dam while we sit with our hands tied and watch the politicians of the frozen North; administer to our little wees.
Tennessee's peak should mark the line where all loyal citizens. South thereof could point with just pride to our own beautiful capitol in the glorious city of Los Angeles. Our tax money which is thrown as shaft to the chilly breezes of the North, would soon build us a finer state building than exalted any state in the union today. We have scores of good citizens in the Southland today who understand our requirements far better than any of the politicians of the North.
With the Southland free to her own administrations Los Angeles would reach her three million population mark n less than ten years. Admittedly it would be a terrible blow to our neighbors of the frozen North to be obliged to assume their own responsibilities but eventually it must and will be so. Why not now? It requires as long to make the journey from San Diego to the present wintry capitol as it does to travel to Salt Lake City, Utah.
Just fancy the people of Florida traveling to Boston on court business! I am for liberty, sane government and South California. Give us government in our midst administered by representatives from our midst and Southern California
If You Fail To Read THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE, You May Never Know It Happened who join many con- ce in who by will do the rest. Improve our own harbor at home and erect our own state capitol with our taxes. Cut loose that mail stone from our necks and destroy forever that machine which is throttling every tax payer and property owner South of the Teachin's peak.
"WHY PAY RENT?" MADAM
THANKSGIVING SERVICE
8TH AND TOWNE
Cooperation of African Methodism was strongly demonstrated in a Union Thanksgiving Service at First Church. The Rev. Dr. Austin pastor of 2nd Church preached the sermon. The speaker gave as a retrospective glance at the old historic customs which showed how far we had departed from Puritanic attitude and illustrated it by showing blasphemy was a cardinal offense to the great Eternal in self offering instead of sin offering. However to the soavanion will all men must bow and every tongue must confess, in utter obedience.
Dr. Miller, president of the A. M. E. Alliance officiated. After the sermon, he called for expressions, many responded. "Shall we meet beyond the River" was then sung and the congregation stood, in silent prayer in sacred memory of the late Dr. J. E. Edwards, the former pastor and builder of 8th and Towne as she now stands, and who died in full triumph of faith, November 22, 1926, in Waco, Tex. Mrs. Cranshaw, sister and Miss Edwards, the daughter of the late deceased are at this writing en route to Waco, Tex., to attend the funeral.
The Ministerial Alliance authorized Rev. A. E. Liles, pastor of Ward Chapel and secretary of the Alliance to wire condolence to the family of the deceased. Thus closed one of the best annual Thanksgiving days in the history of our Methodism in this section of the country.
SUNDAY EVENING AT THE BIG TENT
WHOSE SON IS CHRIST? Prove it—will be the subject at the BIG TENT, 20th and Central Ave. presented by the Evangelist Pastor P. G. Rodgers.
At no more opportune time could such a message be brought to the people, many already are beginning to doubt under the benevolent influence of MODERNISM.
To the faithful Fundamentalist this sermon will be as rain in a dry time and to the one who halts—doubting before the modern philosophy of 'Who is the Christ?'—Pastor Rodgers promises to not only interest but to assist mightly in settling the question.
Let none hesitate to attend these services because of the cool nights—for it is just as warm in the Big Tent as in a Big Church—Modern heating appliances take away all the chill. Services are conducted every night during the week except Monday and Saturday, at 2:45 P. M. Everybody is made to feel at home.
