Grand United Order of Odd Fellows Hold Colorful Session At Riverside The Annual Grand Session of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows which closed an last Friday in the beautiful city of Rive-side was one of the most colorful sessions ever held in the history of the Order. Every Lodge in the entire District composed of California and Oregon was represented by a delegate. Quite a few Life members and Past Grand Masters were present. Among them were B. J. Bass, the President of the Rivers of Oakland; A.D. French of Chicago and J. B. Bass of Los Angeles. The session was marked by the constructive measures considered and adopted, among which was an Odd Fellows scholarship and the building of the Odd, Fellows Home, and a closer working relation between the lodges and Households of Rith. ```markdown ``` ISAIAH ROBINSON' D. G. M. of G. U. o. of O. F The above is an excellent librarian of Mr. Isaiah Robinson of this city which has a unanimous vote elected as District Grand Master of the Grand United Order of Odd. Fellow for the Jurisdiction of California and Oregon at the session just concluded at Riverside last week. The Grand Household of Ruth is simultaneously with the Grand Lodge. This body also had a record attendance and accomplished much benefit in legislation. The people of Riverside view with each other to make the stay of the congregates pleasant and worth while the Monday evening a wonderful program was presented for the exercise of the congregation. Wednesday evening memorial services were held and on Thursday evening the Grand Ball. ENDOWMENT FEATURE EVOKES GREAT FAVOR Perhaps the greatest accomplishment of the Grand Body has been the wonderful showing of the Endowment department which though in operation for a short period has demonstrated worth and bids fair to put the Odd woman way out in front in its progressive spirit. The following facts have been gained by perusing the Records of the Instrument Secretary and Treasurer of the Joint minor closed: The Endowment Department of the University of D. O. P. which is the depository of the Intended and summation of the Intended P. D. G. M. J. M.

This is especially true or the white race in its treatment of the black and yellow races. The white race has a white man regards the black race as a backward ignorant race. It is true that the Negro was backwards several generations ago, but today his advenience is exceeded by no other race. However, this feeling of inferiority toward the Negro continues to exist today in the form of America's greatest problem—the Negro problem. Race inferiority should not exist in this country, because this country as a Democratic country should equalize the status of all. A Democracy should guarantee equal rights to all, and special privileges to none. Race inferiority should not exist because of the progress the Negro has made. If the Negro when set free were content with idling and remaining ignorant he would be nothing but inferior to other races. But when set free was surrounded by a civilization which he has finally grasped after many hard struggles. Today any broad-minded white person will readily admit that as a nation about three generations from the shackles of slavery the Negro has made more progress than any other race in the world who has ever been in the same condition. This does not exclude the white race. The Negro race is yet a young race and its boundless stores of energy, as is always found in anything with youth, will make it the most compelling race in America in time to come. If the white race should ever drop back in its progress, the Negro will surely take its place, for in modern progress he is on par with the white race, and is far ahead of the yellow race whose civilization is so old and unchangeable. We cannot have progress without change, nor change without progress. However, at the present time the yellow race is undergoing a gradual change which will mean much in its future program. The impartial white man admits rather reluctantly that the Negro is a compelling factor in America and urges the Negro youth to make it even more so. Coming! A. C.

PICKENS We wonder who put that tube of black powder and dynamite in the East River tunnel between New York and Brooklyn. We are not at all sure that any of the employees who were about to go on strike, put it there. We do not intend to charge anybody with this deed, but we do intend to exercise our free-born American right to "suppose." Well, "just suppose" somebody "planted" that bomb to help create feeling against the strikers if the strike had come to pass. "Suppose" somebody wanted to get public sentiment ready to support police brutality against the strikers, what better way than to make the innocent public think that the striking employees are so ruthless that they would not only damage the property of the car company but would even take the lives of passengers and other innocent people? Did you notice that the bomb was "found" by one of the loyal employees of the company, and found after the strike sad been averted? And did you notice that the infernal thing was not constructed and set so it could really explode, anyhow? The easiest thing about a bomb is to fix it so that it will explode. We can hardly believe that the one needed for it to explode: both were planted, to hurt the cause of the strikers, or if any prospective striker placed it there, he must have intended only to frighten passengers off the subway lines, for it was certainly set so as not to go off? But it is difficult to conclude that regular union men would even "plant" a bomb, for that is just the way to help their cause to fall. Own up! Who put that bomb there? There is no question but that the Jacobson case has been a boomerang to the present: City Administration; for regardless of the ultimate guilt or innocence of Councilman Jacobson, the people at this time believe him the victim of a police frame up. This situation reaches right back to the Mayor who is responsible for the police department: At this moment long and loud are the cries for the recall of Mayor Clyer, and the petitions out asking for his recall are being readily signed as fast as presented, and there seems no question but what a sufficient number or names will be secured to cause an expression from the voters whether or not the mayor will be recalled. THEY SAY It is passingly strange that two great, big Captains would, out on a simple raid for an ordinary morals case. Also that the same attorneys are retained to defend the woman in the case, as "Marco? the big noise employs to look after the women who conduct the houses for him. Also there are so many things in connection with the whole fabric which have a quiver look that the people cannot get the angle any other way except it is a big frame. DISMISSED FOR TELLING THE TRUTH Police Officer Frank Randolph on last Friday was dismissed from the police force by the trial board of the Los Angeles Police Force. There was no common sense about the case, and Mr. Brad without any sort of hearing. Of course this will not be the last of the case, as the officer is under Civil Services, he will yet have his day in court. "Italian Salad" To Be Heard at Phillip's Temple Church A. C.

Hudson and three other persons and assessed a fine of $200 each for bathing in the Pacific Ocean, was this day appealed to the Superior Court of Los Angeles County. The transcript contained the details of the courtter. The case will be set and tried within the next 60 days at the courthouse in this city. Truly justice will yet assert itself. ASSAILS PREJUDICE AND INTOLERANCE Washington.—At the North - Carolina newspaper convention, at Morehead N. C. Julian Harris, editor of The Columbus, Ga. Enquirer-Sun, and relative of Joel Chandler Harris, creator of the Negro character "Uncle Remus," said that "illiteracy still thrives and prejudice and intolerance usurp the law and administer justice with the lash in the South." "A South illiterate and intolerant," continued Mr. Harris, "is a national menace." Mr. Harris urged the editors to wield their influence against ignorance and intolerance and to help keep the South "in the path blazed by its founders." "Let each editor do his share toward ridding his section of the forces and ideas which are menacing its intellectual progress and spiritual growth and making a jest of justice and a lie of liberty." BROWN AND BEWLEY GET PROBATION BROWN AND BEWLEY GET PROBATION Former police officers Brown and Bewley were granted probation in Judge Elliott Craig's court on last Wednesday as a result of their plea of guilty of perjury, in the Shieffield murder, case some weeks ago. They were given probation over a period of four years. Special To Calif. Eagle BY: NOAH D. THOMPSON. Up winding walks to East Hall on the campus of Hillsdale College at Hildale, Michigan, twenty-three men and women of national and international repute will wend their way August 1-27 to discuss International, Economic, Industrial and Family Relations and new Educational Methods, and to discover, if possible, the real perplexities that now confront all races and groups of men dwelling on the face of the earth today. The event, termed the "Third Annual Summer Conference," is under the auspices of the Fellowship for a Christian Social Order, of which Sherwood Green, Kibby Face, Chairman of the Executive Committee and Amy Blanche Green, Executive Secretary, whose offices are at 247 Madison Avenue, New York City. The two former conferences were held at Olive, Michigan where it was sought to combine physical recreation, wholesome social contacts, mental stimulus and spiritual rewinding. Among the leaders in the discussion at the conference are: Boris D. Borgen, Editor of the *Erie Brith News*, sponsor of Jewish Foundations in State University; prominent in Jewish social work and well acquainted with European affairs. Paul E.

M. The address is entitled "Under neath it All," and treats of economic phases of present day race problems. From past addresses of this young man, it promises to be a real message.

Mr. Whitaker leaves the following morning to enroll for the last year of his professional law course in the School of Jurisprudence of the University of California. Prohibition Officer Resigns New York, N. Y., August 10.—(By the Associated Negro Press) Information has been received in New York that Major August Heise, who was suspended and then reinstated in the prohibition service, following the charges of cruelty to witnesses, which were dismissed by a Federal Grand Jury last week, has tendered Commissioner Doran of the Prohibition service, his resignation. The Commissioner granted Heise thirty days leave of absence which is taken as an indication Heise's resignation will be accepted. Geo. L. Collins, Secy. Fellowship of Reconciliation who has specialized in race relations in connection with southern colleges and has met with student groups in several hundred colleges. John J. Cornelius, lecturer and writer on international and inter-racial relations and delegate for India to the 19th World Conference of the T. M. C. A. at Helsingfors, Finland and member of the American Seminar to Europe (with Sherwood Eddy) in 1988. Among the eighteen others of equal prominence as students of International Relations and Educational Methods is T. Arnold Hill, Director of Industrial Relations of the National Urban League. Mr. Hill was formerly Executive Secretary of the Chicago Urban League having rendered service of great value to the City of Chicago during the trying period when thousands of Negroes were emigrating to the city from the Southeast where for the most part they had lived and worked on farms and were unaccompanied to the new conditions of city life. Mr. Hill who studied L. A. last month in a well-known writer on economic and industrial subjects. His address at the conference will be exclusively with economic and industrial topics. All rooms and things will be租 AIMEE SIDETRACKED: COUNCILMAN JACOB- SON IN LIMELIGHT For a goodly number of months Almee Semple McPherson has had the front page of the daily papers, and Eob Shuler's magazine. The public has become nauseated with the stuff handed out through these mediums about Almee and "Ma" Kennedy. And now, it seems that on account of the asserted "frameup" on Council- man Jacobson, and the neretofore unknown woman character we are to pass through another scandal drama staged in the newspapers. However, we believe in Councilman Jacobson. We believe he is among the cleanest, most concientious, public servants that we have today. ON THE SIDEWALK last Monday proved to be interesting and exciting. The charming little social worker, Miss Gladys Harris had granted us the privilege of looking in with her on this occasion. We went into many homes where tragedy had stalked and left its footprints. Like a panorama these scenes still pass before our mind's eye in striking contrast. In some homes there were pitiful little wails, diseased from birth, either in mind or body; in still others there were men and women in whom the ravages of vice and crime had eaten into their very souls... but of all of these the most pathetic cases were those of Mrs. Dellehey and her son Beverley. Mrs. Dellehey is a little widow of 72 years, her son Beverley is 35 years old. They live at 1852 E. 54th St. Young Dellehey has spent five years between Folsom and San Quinten prisons where he lost his health and became a victim of the white plague. Mother and son are suffering for the simple comforts of life. The California Eagle is presenting this case to you, after having stepped in, offering what it could afford, for your humanitarian consideration. Anyone wishing to aid this couple may be by getting in touch with us at 847 So. General, or 1852 E. 54th St. The other subject in a little window with eight babies, who was deserted by her husband on the eve of the arrival of the eighth infant, whose name and address you may secure by calling at this office. - 00 - BISHOP M. W. CLAIR It has been our supreme privilege to hear Bishop M. W. Chair in sermon. When first we see beneath the sound of his voice these lines drifted in up on us, I am proud to be Black as the night is black—black like the depth of my Africa." Last Sunday evening we heard him preach. We were impressed with the clear simplicity of his language but the profoundness of his thought. "Do not prepare grudges, but prepare to live good lives," said the Bishop. -00- VALLEY TRUCK FARMS: FINE COUNTRY HOME SITES. One or More Acres. Easy terms, 20% DOWN AND 1% PER MONTH.

M., 1208 Hooper Ave. MIDNIGHT FLOGGING MATTIE MAE STAFFORD The "Lash Parties" in Southern States have become so prevalent as to become a "national scandal" is the statement of a leading Georgia newspaper. The pastor of one of the leading churches in Montgomery, Alabama calls upon his congregation to say to the night-riders: "You shall not crucify the free-born men of America upon a fiery cross!" "Flogging in Alabama must cease," declares Gov. Bob Graves. Some call it "jungle justice" others "a denial of democracy, love, faith, and a denial of God!" What's the omen? Is it the sins of the fathers being visited upon the children? Is it the fulfillment of what you measure to your fellow man, it shall be measured back to you? Flogging is milder than lynching, but when Black Men are snatched from the strong arm of the law and burned at the stake, the Southland is not so thoroughly aroused as it is today over "midnight flogging." So far, only four Negroes have been flogged, says a Southern daily. Would Alabama feel the shame and humiliation so keenly were the victims Negroes only? An equal chance and fairplay to all citizens are absolute essentials to the continued life of a Republic such as ours. I cannot think that the best people of America will long endure the savage methods of avenging their madness. They must have a better second thought to uphold the highest ideals of American civilization. The world's foremost nation cannot climb the ladder of fame by keeping the foot of the strong upon the neck of the weak. It would be amusing if it were not so serious, to hear the varied, strange excuses offered for these crimes. Is it human to disagree? Yes! Argue? Yes! But gag and bind? No! Revile and exile? No! AKRON CAUTIONS AGAINST INFLUX The National Urban League through its Department of Industrial Relations has just released the following statement with reference to what appears to be a sudden, unwarranted migration to Akron: "Negroes throughout the country from practically all of the Southern and Middle Western States and from as far West as Los Angeles are coming to Akron looking for work. Some of them are coming upon the invitation of relatives and friends who have lived in Akron; some have heard thru various sources that the city is short of workers. Akron's Industries are reported on a firm foundation, and are working a full-time schedule, but it is feared that if the intake of new workers does not cease Akron will be unable to take care of the numbers who are finding their way to the city. "George W. Thompson, Executive Secretary of the Association for Colored Community Work has conferred with the Better Akron Federation, the Local Community Chest and other public and private agencies and advises that persons planning to come to Akron expecting to find work immediately should delay their coming until those who are already there are properly integrated within the social and industrial life of the community. "Akron has been fortunate in not having unwieldy unemployment or business depression perlods, because N. N.

This probably accounts for the opinion thought generally to be trup, that work is always plentiful there. "The Urban League is making known the fact that such is not the case, and adyles that persons who contemplate going to Ahron for work should obtain it before reaching the city or be prepared to maintain themselves for several weeks and perhaps longer, while seeking employment." Boy Won't Tell Who Cut His Head Jas. Cameron, a boy living at 931 Naomi either considers it disloyal to tell which of his erstwhile boy friends threw the rock that cut a big hole in his head or else; he is waiting till he recovers to mete out his own punishment. At any rate during a rock battle between he and another boy, name unknown, he was felled by one of the missles. Officers Garrott and Conway were called to the scene of the battle but the crowd had scattered and only a boy Albert Turner was found who witnessed the affray and he would not tell either. The injured boy was treated at the Receiving Hospital. EMINENT HAIRDRESSER RETURNS FROM VACATION Mrs. Rosa L. Sampson-Morris, owner, or the Creole Beauty Shoppe at 1114 Central, returned home Sunday, August 7th after a vacation of six weeks. Mrs. Morris was called to San Antonio, Texas, at the death of her brother, Mr. O. J. Connor, who was a well-known undertaker of that city. While away, Mrs. Morris took her much needed vacation and visited many of her old friends whom she had not seen for years. Although she had a most pleasant stay, she is glad to be back home again and tells all of her friends and customers that she is "still doing business at the same old stand." Truth Crushed To Earth Will Rise Again The California Eagle of August 5th 1927, carried, an article on Page Three headed, "WIDOW GETS PROPERTY BACK" in large black type. The case referred to is No. 202346 Maggle Francis vs. Annie R. Scott Mrs. Francis' brought suit against Mrs. Scott, to quiet title to an undivided one-half interest in a lot on East Adams street, Los Angeles. Mrs. Scott filed an answer and cross-compaint alleging that Mrs. Francis was indebted to her for rents received by Mrs. Francis from Mrs. Scott's interest in the property and for money advanced for repairs and upkeep of the property.

Los Angeles, California. Dear Mr. Jennings: I have your letter of July 27th, asking for a memorandum of my decision in the case of Maggie Francis vs. Annie R. Scott. I gave the Clerk of Dept. 6, Mr. John a memoranda of the various amounts at the time I disposed of the case. I am not certain of the amounts, but from my own notes, I believe the amounts found due Mrs. Scott are as follows: 27. months rent at $30.00 per month ..... $ 810.00 One half of not paid for painting house: $473.30) ..... 236.65 One half of labor claim on house ..... 45.00 $1091.65 You might speak to Mr. John, and compare what I have here written with the statement of various amounts that I gave to him. Assuring you of my appearing of your courtesy in matters that you have appeared before me, I am. Mrs. Scott and her attorneys are satisfied with the conclusions of the Court, but when the time comes for the payment of the $1091.65, and the satisfaction of the Judgment, we trust and pray that the author of the article herein referred to will promptly pay the same, or see that it is paid. We anticipate that there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth when execution is issued against the property to satisfy the Judgment. "Thou canst not say I did it, shake not thy gory lock at me." E.

Kansas State Club Held Monster Picnic On Last Sunday The Kansas State Club, recently organized, gave their first annual picnic on last Sunday at Brookside Park in Pasadena. A monster crowd turned out and a wonderful day was had. Fully 2000 persons were present and Kansans with true Kansas hospitality entertained for the day. Tons of good things to eat were in evidence and no one had to go away hungry. The photographer was present and made a wonderful picture of the Kansas group. Many visitors from other states came out and gave the Kansans a glad hand and complimented them upon their success. Truly of all days Kansas Day was right up in the front line of the procession. PUPILS AND PARENTS FETED The pupils, teachers and parents of the Wilkins Plano Academy were the guests of their director Prof. Wm. T. Wilkins, Sunday afternoon, from 4 to Y. P. M. an impromptu program was rendered. The school is unusually active and successful and the twenty-five teachers and apprentice teachers are being called together Thursday by the secretary, Elmore Howard Hubbs to formulate plans for the next term which begins about the first of September. Wm. Wilkins entertained to try to show his appreciation of the good works of the students in his 14th annual recital. 10 One of the most successful affairs of the season was celebrated Friday, July 29, at Venice, The "Gondolier Club" whose members stand high in Venice, Santa Monica and Los Angeles circles, proved excellent hosts Johnny Mitchell's orchestra played really jam-up music. Oh, the chickin' that concoction was so good it called for more. The beautiful gowns of the young ladies vied with each other in attractiveness, while the young men were no "slouches" either. The president, Mr. Nathaniel Rucker, well-known track man, Harry Benton greeted him; Benton greeted them together with Merlin Walter Gregory, Leslie Nickerson and Mercier and Lloyd Reese, constitute the club which is one hundred per cent in popularity. We hope they won't feel hurt when we say that every one is looking for ward to another such successful af fair. We hear from good sources that L. A. will miss two very popular young men when Messrs. Clifford Gantt and Eardley Goff embark in their flivver to see some of the world. But they are coming back soon. We wish to extend our sympathy to Mrs. Verna Lewis, whose husband, Arthur, died recently. Arthur was well known and popular, among the young set and his loss will be deeply felt and mourned. Brookside Park was certainly lively last week when the churches celebrated with a large picnic. Fond mama could be seen with their numerous offsprings sitting on the grass with enough lunch to feed an army; young people could be seen cheerfully paying twice as much for ice cream sodas and sundaees; and stalwart forms of the men and boys and the girls in their chic and suits could be seen bobbing up and down in the plunge. On the road home, honking horns could be beard for blocks, while dust enveloped the machines. So everybody was satisfied and will be there next year doing the very same thing. Miss Vera Foreman won first prize in the "Beautiful Extremities" contest held Monday, August 8th, at the 50th and Central Dance Hall. She certainly deserved it. We don't know that name of the young lady who won second prize but we do wish to mention Frances Dunham who certainly deserved some kind of prize. The contest was rather poorly arranged and conducted. Sonny Clay's Orchestra was jam-up as usual, but these artists really were warm, as were the guests. That hall, to my mind, reverting to slang, is the "bunk." We was so close able but the crowd really was there, giving every reason that the "Lone Wolf Club" is really nonnular. --- For a bricklayer who is the most popular and distinguished piano player in L. A.? He is the artist who wrote "In my Dreams I'm Jealous of You." Miss Dorothy Patton is driving a "Koot" Hudson and it is really jam, up, as is the Dodge roadster which "Toots" Banks is sporting around town. Ode To The Reckless I gaze across the street so wide I start, I dart, I jump, I glide I take a chance, oh, so slim— I trust to eye and nerve and limb, I scoot to right, I gallop thru, I'm here, I'm there, I'm lost to view, My wife I know, hangs in the toss Another plunge and I'm accross! Oh, give me pity if you can, For I'm just another pedestrian— Modern Samson: "My strength lies in my hair." Modern Delliah: "Why don't you wash it?" Miss 'Stell Williams says she swallowed enough water at the Brookside Plunge to fight a battlehill. Mr. George LeVigne says he "shore" does like the West Side. For which we can hardly blame him. Miss Pearl Wise is wearing on her engagement finger a pretty little ring. We wonder— We wonder if the "Two Black Crows" playing at the Pantages are really "crows" or just black cork artists. Arithmetic problem: What price is a young man's suit when said young man, falling into the Pacific Ocean in an unlocked-for accident, gets said salt wet and it s-h-a-l-k-a-s? At the Broadway Palace, downtown, they are showing "The Missing Luk." Well, we know where they can find it—anywhere on Central. Mrs. Emma Fail of Pueblo, Colo., with her two daughters, Laura and Anna Leasing, are visiting relatives in Los Angeles. Miss Geraldine Evans, their cousin, is planning several holiday entertainments. Mrs. Fail and daughters will be here for another three weeks. Well, it sure is warm—so we'll fill up on ice water as we are broke. Do you see you work?

TRUCK RUNS OVER CHINAMAN Jaywalking across Central at Ninth street resulted in a broken leg for Chon You of 1114 E. 10th street. Mr. You started jaywalking and then changed his mind and started back to the curb. At this time, a large oil truck or the Dumley Truck Co., 778 San Pedro, hit and knocked him down, running over and breaking his right leg. Quick thinking and quicker action by the truck driver, Mr. Schemlen of turning sharply to the right, is the only thing that prevented the Cohnman from getting killed.

Winiford Rout PYORRHEA ALVEOLARIS Pyorrhea Alveolaris or Pyorrhea, as it is most commonly called, is one of the most prevalent diseases affecting the mouth of modern man. This disease is not an entirely modern malawi however, since skulls of ancient people dug up during excavations and explorations have shown the effects of the disease on the alveolar process. The inception and progress of Pyorrhea is very slow and may go on for months or even years without any inconvenience to the patient or unusual conditions which the patient notices. This being one of the worst features of the disease, it tends to lead to the danger threatening his teeth so much of the investing tissue of the teeth has been destroyed and the gums are in such a condition that nothing short of a miracle can restore health to the parts affected. Pyorrhea is curable if treatment is begun in time and carried out carefully. The causes of pyorrhea are many, but the principal cause is neglect, if every person would see their dentist twice yearly or even once each year for a careful examination of their mouth and teeth very few would be troubled with pyorrhea. Fermenting food debris, Mucoid plaques, Salivary deposits resulting from improper oral hygiene, Ill-fitting crowns, Mal-occlusion of the teeth are among the causes of pyorrhea, together with systematic diseases. The usual first symptom of the disease is inflammation and discoloration of the gums. The gums bleed on slight pressure, if these signs are neglected the gums gradually receive mite teeth, "pockets" are formed around the teeth from which there is a slight exudation of pus. On pressure the teeth gradually become loosened as the investing tissue is destroyed and finally have to be extracted. If the cause is removed in the first stages the diseases may be checked and the parts restored to health. "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" however, and if one would assist nature in keeping the month free from the ravages of pyorrhea, keep the teeth clean. Use your tooth brush after each meal and be careful. Keep your system clean. Allow it to broken down and deacetyd teeth to remain untreated in the mouth. And last but not least have your mouth examined at least once each year. RESOLUTION FROM THE CALIF. FEDERATION OF COLORED WO- MEN'S CLUBS WHEREAS, the officers and members of the A. M. E.

Connors Youth's Challenge to the Church Will Purify The Church (For the Associated Negro Press) The church of the early ages grew corrupt, whenever it grew strong. Today in the building, of magnificent structures, we must be careful that the same influences do not gain control. The austere life of self-denial of the Master has been thrust into the background and men are leaning toward every form or indulgence. It is against these thing in the church today, that youth hurls its challenge. It will help to purify these errors by waking sleeping Christian; but none of this does away with Christ or the Authority of His Word. This Sinclair Lewis type of modern life has looked with the clear analytical eyes of intelligence at the humbugs and hypocrises of the life around us. If we of the church could not cry out against sin within, then by an Elkhorn that watch off the cloak and the world sees what that has been masquerading under the name Christ. The white church fought no anti-slavery battles. It is today silent on the sin of lynching and in large numbers, it joins the Klan. Because the true Christian has attracted false pretenders in no way discounts the blessings that have come to the world out of a belief in God. The fact that Sinclair Lewis could write his sordid, tarnished, Main Street and find so many undeveloped minds to enjoy it is no proof that there are not men and women living out the real beauty of spiritual existence that would be impossible without religion. Without the indwelling Christ, life would be insupportable to many men and women today. Main Street had never waken up to kinship with God. Today in the Aachen, on the rostrum and on the choir, we may find Satan. Christ skilts that upon His coming Satan would be sitting in His seat. It is for upright and women to wake up and search for this Satan in the church in hypocrisy, envy or lust and thrust him into. These do not represent Christ or Christianity. When Sinclair Lewis stood at the grave of Burbank and stretched out his piny arm against God, laughed at his ecotism. The God of the Universe, the Creator of Heaven and Earth, probably hardly knew that this worm existed. He fixed laws in the beginning of life by which life measures cut to us in our personal affairs the sum total of our meanness. A few months later I read, "Sinclair Lewis' down with broken nerves." I knew that his scale had been balancing. There is no life God up in Heaven, taken per revenge. Life is a great scale in the sands. An omnipotent fate that is immanent had said his word, "THIS IS HE." If we choose to obey Him, life will heap upon its real honors. If we choose the way or hate, then life will bring us dishonor. We are free moral agents. In this we are gods unto ourselves. Watts News Mesdames Ragsdale Wilkerson and Miss Imogene Taylor of Chicago are house guests of Mrs. E.

Y., Aug. 6—"Not a whit more spirited and determined was the North American Indian in keeping out the European invader than was the Negro in projecting his native land." So says the famous Negro author and journalist J. A. Rogers, in an interesting a "note on "Bambata—Leader of the Lena Reyolt" in the August number of the Messenger, a Negro magazine published in this city. "If the Indian can point to his King Phillips," continues the writer, "the Geronimos, and Sitting Bulls the Negro can point to his Cetewayos, lobenguelas, and Moslikatzes, As Sitting Bull wiped out the entire American expedition sent against him, so it way killed the entire Indian族 against him in Indianhill in West Virginia's Salary county called "The Black N. poleon or the Sudan," resisted the French, as in Ashanti, Kool Karakari, did the English; or in Abyssinia, Menedik did the Italian." Mr. Rogers then tells the thrilling story of Bambaata, leader of the great native uprising in South Africa in 1906. By clever propaganda Bambaata succeeded in arousing all Zululand against the whites. Although short of rifles and ammunition, and forced to do most of their fighting with assegals and spears, the Zulus defeated and killed several expeditions of whites and native police sent against them. Finally the whites became so alarmed that they declared martial law and brought to bear all of their military machinery to crush the dangerous Bambaata and his men. This, because of their military guns, and they were able to do after very desperate battles in which the Zulus with great bravery charged to the very mouth of the machine guns. The rebellion lasted nine months and cost the Natal Government over five million dollars before it was finally crushed. Mr. Rogers, who writes regularly for the Messenger, tells the story in his usual excellent manner and the reader's interest is sustained to the very end. Truly a marvelous account of Negro courage in the face of great odds. Vacation Reading Take the best books along! These vacation days you have time only for the very best in books.

They are the sign of a vital escape from the dead level, the smooth monotony—the escape to the variety that is the spice of faces as well as life. Back of them is a soul that has absorbed the warmth of the sun, the clean breath of the wind, and the laughter and joy that nature heaps into her overflowing days of youth. You fortunate ones, you "speckied beauties," whatever may do to your hair your, arms, your skirts and your feet, not succumb to this propaganda which we are persuaded is used by the jealous plain ones who envy your freckled.

To the doxical, but the mind has long conceit who make play of their work play le There is a lesson for grown-up men and women in that felicity of childhood to make play out of work. Many adults can recall when the "a-bringing home of the cows" was made the occasion for a buffalo stampede and the real wild west and jasso sort of cow punching, and the fun which made play of the harvest labor and the snow house and snow man which made work shoveling great sport, as well as the many play games that came of raking the leaves, running errands, beating rugs. Was there anything men call work which those same men as boys could not have made a rip-snorting good game of? Making play of work is the real secret of happiness. Happiness is never attained through slaving today in the anticipation of being able, financially, to play tomorrow. The man who takes a pleasure in his work—makes play of it—is enjoying life in its full. He does not need to depend upon financial independence for his happiness. He is the man or woman whom the world has always mistaken for the inspired genius because "love of work," "ambitions" and "aspiration" are terms foreign to a world finding in work nothing but "toil," "slavery," "labor," "struggle" and "drudgery," and working for nothing but "repose," "relaxation," and a perpetual holiday. Love of work is possible either in digging ditches or sculpturing eternal marble, but good work is only possible from men and women who make play of their work. To the eye and ear it seems paradoxical, but the mind has long conceived that human beings who make play of their work play less at their work THE IRON IS HOT—STRIKE NOW!

The demonstration put on by the reds to save the lives of Sacco and Vanzetti has the nation as, it were trembling in its boots. About what? Just a plain murder of a human being, tried by a jury of their peers, found guilty and the law shall stand or fall for this demonstration is a mockery upon justice. As it looks now the law is forced on the defensive as governors and judges quail at the threats of the mob. DEMONSTRATING We have from time to time called attention to the wonders wrought by co-operation in all of its forum. We never tire in the persecution of this doctrine for it is not only the salvation of a city, county, state or nation, but to individuals as well when applied to business endeavor.

J. WHEATON The most interesting happening in national politics was the declaration of President Calvin Coolidge, that he would be a candidate for re-election. The declination of the President opens up a wide field for political speculation. It leaves the field open for a number of aspirants. Among the names most frequently heard are Hoover, California; Long world Ohio; Lowin, Illinois. Of course it is too early to speculate as to the outcome. At first there were a number who believed Coolidge was playing politics, but the American public has too much faith in the sanity and integrity of the President to believe him a party to such cheap political methods. Calvin Coolidge not "choosing" to run, means that Calvin Coolidge will not be a candidate for re-election. The contests for seats in the city government of San Francisco are taking shape. Naturally the cynosure of the political eye is centered on the mayoralty contest. "The present incumbent, Rolph, and the former Postmaster, Powers are busy counting noses. The Mission district is a Rolph stronghold and great efforts are being put forth by the Powers managers to make inroads in that bailiwick. The content for the District Attorney's office is also, becoming interesting. Louis Hyington, Charlie Breman and Maurice Dooling are the contestants so far to face the barrier. It is rumored that Angelo Rossi wants to stage a "come back" for Supervisor, and Sam Breye, has hopes. "Be sure your sins will find you out," even if it is a frame. Unless you are proof against every temptation don't follow the role or Reformer. It is alleged that Carl Jacobson, Los Angeles Councilman and anti-vice cruiser, yielded to the temptress and was arrested under the vagrancy law. Jacobson claims that it was a "frame." Well, we remember the Harper incident. Harper was Mayor or Los Angeles, and the occurrence which forced him to resign his office was somewhat similar to the Jacobson affair. If you are a vice reformer, yield not to temptation, but when the temper shows up, kick him out the door. Racial segregation still goes on in Washington, D. C, and we hear of no strong protests from the racial appointees of the administration. The latest humiliation to be offered the race is in the Department of the Interior. Men who have served in the capacity of examiners for three decades have been set apart from contact with workers in the same branch of the service who are white. The Pension Bureau is the scene of this latest race humiliation. Dr. Hubert Work is the secretary of the interior, and knowing him to be a brood, fair-minded man, we will withhold gratification for a while. The passing of Gen. Leonard Wood removes a national character from the stage. His career was rather unique. His prominence came with the Spanish-American war when with the late Pres. Theo. Roosevelt he organized the Rough Riders which troops he commanded. Since that time he has been much in the public eye. At one time he was a presidential aspirant. His job as Gov. General of the Philippines has been a strenuous one. He was the United States on leave and died after an operation for hernia. We listened in at the dedication of the International Peace Bridge, Sunday. Felicitations of amity and good will were offered by Canadian and American notables. Speeches by premiers of Canada and England, the Prince, of Wales. The United States was represented by Vice-Pres., Dawes, Secy. of State Keggog, Gov. Al Smith. There were two there who may be contenders for the Presidency of the United States—Dawes or Illinois, Gov. Smith of New York. We noticed in one of the Bay City papers that the membership of the Booker T. Washington Country Club to be built in the Mendocino County woods has reached 700. Where did they come from? Can it be true that you can get 700 Negroes to put $50.00 each—$5,000 in chimical scheme when it would be impossible to enlist that number to deposit 50 cents for some legitimate enterprise? If there in any such thing as making it impossible to use the names of those who have done worth while things to further finisy race schemes it should be done. The capitalization of Booker Washington's name for all purposes is a thing to be regretted. We should have more pride, more regard for the names of those who have brought honor to their race. Booker T. Washington would never have countenanced the financing of a $280,000 club house, luxurious in every detail while the race as a whole is laboring under industrial and economic handicaps. I could demand: the greatest boon I would ask for my Race would be the capacity of thought. It we would but think: Stop; pause; consider: how many pit falls we would escape. But we don't; everything that in held up before us in glittering terms we accept, and what is worst pass it on to our fellowes. We have always claimed that any Negro who seeks to exploit his Race is a traitor. No difference under what guise he operates. The reorganization of the State government (California) as prescribed by the last legislature went in effect the 35th or July. On that date Governor Young complied his appointment of the personnel of the health or departments who will constitute his medical family.

The light for the chair now held down by the Hon. James Robert, Jr., in the city hall civic center is now on in earnest. James Power, who has held down the job as Postmaster for Uncle Sam has resigned his position and thrown down the gantlet challenging the right of the priest to be the chief of his "staff" hold" on the job as Chief of the Municipality of San Francisco. The light promises to be a bitter oak. It will be hard to determine the outcome, especially should there enter a third candidate of popularity. James B. McSheephy is after the Assessor's job and—well, there promises to be lots of fun for the "Boys" between now and the date of election, with plenty of the sticky stuff to plaster the wearing apparel of all candidates. That Louis Mencken's syndicated article "The Colored Brother" has stirred the ire of the "black brother or the cloth" is putting it mildly. And yet so much of it is true that when they try to refute it, to use a slang phrase, they put their feet in their mouths." There is no condemnation of the church. The only thing is the condemnation of the usage that Race preachers have subverted the church. It, the church, has ben the greatest medium of influence. Ever since the Emancipation from the bonds of physical slavery the church has been the vehicle to which the masses have looked to carry the racial burden. But later the Jehus of the vehicle have been driving in the wrong direction. They have left the spiritual road and are furiously driving down the road of selfish materialism. Yes, its sad but true. The gentlemen of the cloth while clamoring for, racial leadership instead of forging to the front have been marking time," thereby retarding the progress of the pushy army behind. Fall to the rear: let us see the white plume of some Henry of Navarre in the van waving us on. On to the goal of success. As was predicted the Grand Lodge of the I. B. P. B. O. E. of W. will hold its sessions in the city of New York. The injunction has been temporarily dissolved which means that the barrier of legality has been removed. It is believed that the injunction will be vacated before the Grand Lodge meets. There is a right face on the part of the G. E. R. and the Legal Advisor. Both claim that they are overjoyed at the happy turn of events. It would have been too bad for that splendid fraternal organization to have split on the rock of selfishness. "We are happy!" Claude James, the Esquire of Sierra Lodge, 742, Sacramento, is busy posting through the State notices of the big event that lodge will pull off on the night of Labor Day in Native Sons. Hall. He has ordered a truck load of conefelt, sapentine and novelties. Claude says "Everybody in the State of California will know of Sierra Lodge after the night or Sept. 5th. Clem Raymond telephoned from the city of Oakland, saying, 'My orchestra is rehearsing some special jazz for your big ball.'" Hurrah, boys! Throw up your caps. Make the welkin ring with your barberia. Why! you ask. I thought that pointed a Race man as Minister to Liberia. Why! your ask. I thought that post was always filled by a Negro? Then why the rejoicing? I don't know. Do you? When Bishop Hood returned it was conceded that the post was vacated. But it remained empty. When car the job was offered him, but Jim Carter came back from Madagascar threw up both hands.

He will the post ably. -90- We could join the "Hallelujah" chorus with sincerity and the President appointed some able Race representative as Minister to Haiti. The Black Republic' which calls for insular representation in the Presidency appoint James Weldon Johnson. Well all they had to do to keep U. S. Senator King from visiting Haiti was to tell Pres. Borno not to allow him to enter. Senator King might have asked the administration some pertinent questions concerning U. S. occupation or the Island. We doubt if James Weldon Johnson could get a passport to enter. Well, the Race used to have outstanding representation in the Treasury, Navy and Revenue departments. There were 14 appointments demanded of the administration when it was inaugurated. Count the demands, then count the fulfillments. About the 29th of July the law passed by the 47th Legislature which authorized a reorganization of the state departments, California, goes into effect. So far there has been but one definite announcement, that of Bert B. Meeks, at present a member of the Prison Board, to head the Department of Public Work. The appointment appears to find favor with the men. President Romance business men of the State and his educational training as Civil Engineer is a great asset in his taylor as all of the reclamation and constructive projects come under his department by consolidation of the several divisions. The Governor is greatly elated over his success in persuading Meeks to accept the job which is one of the most important under the reorganization. He will be given tull rein in the selection of his chiefs of divisions. The salary is $10,000 a year. The N. A. A. C. P. has chosen Los Angeles, California for the annual meeting, 1928. The Governor sent to the meeting in Indianapolis a telegraph inviting them to the State. This representative state of the "Western Empire" will welcome with open arms the forward looking men and women of both races which comprise the personel of its membership, California and Californians are known throughout the nation for their hospitality. In fact it is world wide affection can discern all of the problems social and racial. Oh yes! we have here! No use trying to dodge the issue. They will find here that Sam and Eliza have not left "Mr. and Mrs. John Peck" behind, and that they have brought some "Dixie seed" which they are trying to make grow in California soil, and it takes the harrow or Eternal Vigilance to keep it from growing prolific. Here and there, it has taken root in the soil and its pernicious efforts are left. In those communities where "Sam and Eliza" have not thrown off their former environments, "Dixie Seed" has had a chance to spread. It is all that the vigilant part of the populace can do to curb the spread of the noxious weed, but they don't despair. Let us in California give the N. A. A. C. P. a membership of 20,000.
