To the stirring thrilling enspiring notes of several bands, rippling flags and waving bankers. Afro-American citizens from all over the United States will swing in a long line through the principal streets of the city in July.
It will be the parade of the N. A. A. C. P. one of the grandest most momentous features of this great conference which convenes here June 27 to July3. The parade committee headed by Major Loving, Capt. Bratton, and Capt. Leo are leaving no stone unturned to make the grandest of all that have been held each year during the past nineteen years in as many different cities.
That the city in general is interested and intends great cooperation is being evidenced by the many inquiries, that have been made in to the hard working committee from city officials and local enterprises, with the intention of assisting in the welcome. Several motion picture companies have best being with each other for the privilege of making pictures of the line of march.
PICTURES WILL BE SHOWN IN

Through out the country the pictures made will be shown with close-ups of many of the participants, thus stamping it as one of the outstanding events in Race history.
The committee invites all citizens to assist in making this the greatest parade of its kind ever witnessed. Lodges, Churches, Clubs, Ladies Committees, private and civic organizations are urged to prepare for representation with a float or cars in this moving spectacle of race achievement.

Articles have appeared in the L. A. Times, Examiner, The Herald, Delly News, Evening Express and Evening Record commending selection of this city for the conference, and stating Clarence Darrow and other white notables may attend. Dr. H. Clauds Hudson, president of the organization predicts that this will be the greatest pageant of progress that ever presented to the public the tangible story of a Race hopes ideals efforts and achievements.
Woman Loses Supreme Court Fight
(By: A. N. P.)
New Orleans, La., May 22.—The Supreme Court refused to review its recent decision affirming the judgment of the Circuit Court of Appeals, ordering a new trial in the case growing out of labor troubles at Bogalusa, La., during which L. E. Williams was killed.
Mrs. Williams obtained a judgment against the Great Southern Lumber Company, in the Federal Court, on the ground that its employees had murdered her husband as a part of a conspiracy to prevent Williams from unionizing the mill workers. The Circuit Court of appeals ruled that the trial court had excluded material evidence which should have been admitted and ordered a new trial. It was this decision that was confirmed by the Supreme Court.
Angelus Funeral Home Made Like New
Passing the Angelus Funeral Home 1030 E. Jefferson Street, recently your reporter noted the vast exterior improvement which had been made on their beautiful home and, on entering the home, proper and gave it the once over, we were exceedingly gratified to view just about as complete and the most beautiful interior that it would be possible to produce. Every department from the business office to the morgue had undergone a most thoroughly artistic manner, the paint which transformed as it were, the Angelus Funeral Home—like new. Especially did the work performed upon the spacious chapel appealed to us and likewise in all the departments shine forth; this feature accentuated by the installation of modern furniture sets forth this institution as one of the outstanding funeral homes in the west.
FIRM MAKES RAPID PROGRESS
In speaking to the management, we gleaned the fact that this Funeral Home has been in operation only since July 1925 and during that period of time. Has steadily moved forward and has become one of the leading institutions of its kind in the great Western country. We further gleaned the fact that its remarkable success has been attained by accommodations for the people moderate charges and the best of attention coupled with maintaining service second to none. In fact, we were informed by the management, that the highest ambition of the firm was to give to the people the very best service and to charge them the lowest possible amount for the service thus rendered.
PERSONNEL
It might be interesting for readers to know the personnel of this, the youngest undertaking in the city and yet one of the most successful.
Mr. L. G. Robinson, well known local divine and all around useful citizen, is its president. Mr. Robinson has been an inspiration which has had much to do with the place which this firm occupies in the business world. While Mr. Robinson has held an official position with the County or Los Angeles, he has not been content to draw his salary, he has dedicated himself for service and set an example which others might well follow along business lines which will lift us up and make us an integral part in the steady march of business effort.
Mr. E. G. Hill, vice-president, is one of our substantial business men who never hesitates in making an investment which will benefit mankind more especially the group with which he is identified.
Lorenza Bowdoin is well known as one of our reliable and enterprising citizens and occupies the position as secretary-treasurer of this firm.
Mrs. Sophia L. Smith, well known citizen and worker in religious effort, hold the distinction of being the only woman manager or a large undertaking company west of Chicago. Mrs. Smith has proved her worth and has been a high credit to this young out growing concern.
Mr. J. H. Hill who holds the position as ass't. manager and funeral director of the Angelus Funeral Home, is well and favorably known not only in Los Angeles, but throughout the length and breadth of this country. Mr. Hill has for many years, been an employee of the great Pullman Sleeping Car Company, and as a consequence, gained a rich, ripe and varied experience and acquaintance with men. Mr. Hill it is said, counts his friends by the thousands. He has demonstrated his belief in business by entering therein in large way and is his present position, we are told, he has made good to the utmost.
Mr. Alphonso A. Robinson, the mortician or this firm has gained an enviable reputation as one of the outstanding embalmers of his day.
And very truly, we join with the people in general, to extend congratulations to the Angelus Funeral Home for its progress and success.
Alpha Phi Alpha
Continuing its war against ignorance through its "Go to High School, Go to College Campain," the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, through the courtesy of the Don Lee Motor Car Co., put on one of the finest radio programs ever broadcasted over KHJ. Mr. Merrit Cohen was in Solo numbers at the Piano, followed by Mr. William Storard. The thrilling Tenor. President Grant D. Venerable played a number of Cornet Solos. Two Short addresses were presented by Misters Newell Eason and Ishmael P. Flory on Education and on the Campaign respectively. The whole program was splendid. it is hoped that many of our citizens were listening in for the message of education and Enlightment.
Saturday night, May 26, the Fraternity will be host to all high school Seniors at the International House on the campus of the University of So. California. A splendid and inspiring program has been arranged for our younger boys. The Slogan for the night is Meet the Fellows and the Fellows Greet You.

FIGHTS COLOR RESTRICTION
FIGHTS COLOR RESTRICTION
For three days this week in the Superior Court, Department No. 45, presided over by Judge Stuttman, the case of Lettean vs. Ellis has had the right or way and has created a deal of interest.
The case is what is known as a residential segregation case, caused by restrictions placed upon the sale of real property. Mrs. Ellis, who is a widow has occupied this residence in dispute in the Wustliet Tract, on E. 42nd St., between Avalon and McKinley, for a number of years and now the crackers propose to move her out on the ground of the restrictions in the title to this property.
McDOWELL PUTS UP STRONG PIGHT
Attorney Afue. McDowell has put up a wonderful fight on behalf of Mrs. Ellis against the two white attorneys employed by the colorphobists.
It was interesting to note his splendid service when alone and singlehanded he made a most splendid case for the consideration of the Court. He brought forth authority one after the other, cited cases and countered the plaintiff at every turn of the road. From the showing made and evidence presented it is confidently expected that he will be given a favorable judge at the hands of the Court.

The Forum is moving steadily on under the administration of president A. H. Duncan, a large attendance is always in evidence and a keen interest is always at hand. A most splendid current topic reader keeps up the interest to a high point by an interesting selection of current topics.

NEWSPAPER'S FALSE PREDICTION ANSWERED
With a chorus of "Hes and Soh's",
an endless throng of surprised and admiring pedestrians and motorists
pause in front of Mosby's Music House
at 23rd and Central to gaze into the
window at one of the most beautiful
displays, in solid silver handcraft
ever moulded from the dream visions
of an artist, into an assortment of
loving cups.
Three Beauties entered in the

Six in number they represent a modest fortune, and are to be given free and for unrestricted ownership to the lucky girls who win places in the now nationally discussed Beauty and Sport Contest to take place the afternoon of Decoration Day at Parkridge Country Club.
The cups themselves may be classed as "Among my Souvenirs," for the $5000 in cash prizes in addition to the cups, presents a still more substantial bait that is tempting scores of the country's most perfect girls and women to look their sweetest under God's own sunkist skies in a fascinating fantasy or flower-like femininity: a memorable melange of marvelously moulded maidenhood.

Last Wednesday saw the close of the 25th Annual Encampment of the Department of California at San Diego. It also saw the greatest Encampment that the state has ever had both in point of attendance and work performed. There were 594 credited delegates there of which number 19 were from our group, representing Lieut. John H. Alexander Camp No. 3 of Oakland; Capt. Chas. Young Camp No. 21, Vallejo; Capt. E. L. Baker Camp No. 71, Los Angeles and Maj. John R. Lynch Camp No. 75 of San Francisco. The reports of the officers went to show that there are in the state over 12000 members of the organization and it is expected that at the end of this year the membership will be over 15,000. The most important piece of legislation accomplished at the session was a resolution urging the state to rebuild the barracks at the Yountville Home for disabled soldiers and to arrange to move the home for the widows and orphans there too. It has the support of the legislative branch of the state and will no doubt soon be in effect, i.e. that is the latter concerning the widows home. As for the former that has already been ordered by the state. Money to come from the boxing fund.
The local Camp—Capt. E. L. Baker—with its Auxiliary is having Memorial services Sunday, morning at 11:00 o'clock at Westminster Presbyterian Church, 35th Place and Denker Ave. all veterans of all wars and friends are invited. At the Coliseum, Wednesday, the 30th, there will be a monster parade and celebration in which the Spanish War Veterans take the leading part. John Stevens McGroaty will be the principal speaker.

A doubting Thomas in the shape of a suburban daily made a pessimistic prediction a few days ago. It said in prat, "Mr. Journee White's achievement in securing such a wonderful place for his people, is commendable but it will not hold up. It will not be long before the careless element will over-run it and spoil its success."
For the benefit of the prophesying writer the Race citizens one and all, join with the management in declaring that they are in Parkridge to stray and will co-operate to make it more and more enjoyable as "California's Playground." To this end all its major features will be well managed, and its patrons members, and visitors will all help uphold the excellent standard set by its owners.

CHICAGO, MAY 21 (Special)—The A. M. E. General Conference today elected Rev. J. H. Wilson as Editor of the Western Christian Recorder over a field of candidates including the present incumbent, Rev. Barksdale of Kansas City, Mo. The very faithful and intrepid church builder of this Western country thereby becomes a General Officer of the great A. M. E. connection.
The headquarters of the Western Christian Recorder will be moved to Los Angeles. This is a signal victory for the Coast and is a result of the tireless efforts of Rev. J. H. Wilson.
Elks Lay Cornerstone of Bethel A. M. E. Church
Last Sunday the local lodge of L. B. P. O. E. of W., No. 86, turned out in full regalia headed by the Elks Band and Drill Corps to lay the cornerstone for Bethel Chapel A. M. E. Church on 25th St., near Hooper Ave.
Quite a crowd assembled and witnessed the ceremonies of laying the stone, which was conducted by Exalted Ruler J. B. Loving, assisted by the officials of the lodge.
Capt. Bratton headed the Drill Team and put his men through many intricate march movements as the line of march wended its way from the hall to the church and on its return.

DECORATI
WEDNESDAY Evening's Express came forth with an article stating that two masked Juvenile Klansmen at Bell had entered a yard at 122 South Bear street and made a brutal attack upon Geraldine Broadway, aged 12 years, ward of Mrs. Victoria Jacquet.
We hope that the better thinking citizens or Bell will see to it that these Juvenile crooks' are brought to trial, and that while it is possible because of their youth, the desire for lynch rule in their hearts will be replaced by something that speaks for noble citizenship.
REV. S. PARKS CADMAN of Brooklyn, New York, one of America's greatest pulpeteers says that there is no difference of color in the brain. If there is no difference in the brains, then we can't see how there could be a vast difference in intelligent men's points of view.
IT IS ALLEGED that on last Monday morning, two colored men, whose names we have been unable to secure, walked into the Mutual Dairy Association's lunch room, located at 1500 Naomi Avenue, and asked for glasses or buttermilk. They were refused service, and thrown out because they insisted upon being served.
When the report of this incident came to us, we sent a man to the Company to ascertain the authenticity of the same, and the Mutual Dairy Association said that it was true that the Black Men had been refused service, but that the Company was not responsible as the place was leased to a Mrs. Walker.
Our opinion is that at least one-half of the butter and milk trade of the Mutual Dairy Association is from the Black Folk of this community, and we argue that about the only redress that we have for this sort of thing, is to withhold our business from people who dare to treat us in this fashion, and then hide behind—the place is leased and we are not responsible." If the Mutual Dairy Association appreciates and respects the business it receives from the Black population of this city and its policy is to treat all people the same, it will so instruct its lessee.
Then, taking a restrospective view of the whole situation, we can, but come to this conclusion, and that is, that we must cease consuming and presuming that we are just making wonderful progress and get down to the business of producing some of the milk we drink, some of the butter we eat, some of the shoes we wear, and some of the flowers we smell, and then the white man who dares to insult us with the sign "Negro trade not solicited" will replace that same sign with "We solicit Black folk trade."
COLOR OF VICTIM MAKES DIFFERENCE IN KY.
(By: A. N. P.)
Sheperdsville, Ky., May 22.—That members of mobs do not have such easy sailing when the victim is white, was proved here Monday when six alleged members of a mob that 10 days ago shot a white woman to death, wounded five members of her family, and burned her home, were held without bond on charge of murder to await the action of the Bullitt county grand jury, which was called for a special session to consider the cases.
Mr. Isaiah Robinson, District Grand Master of the G. U. O. of O. R. is up in the northern part of the state this week, visiting the lodges in that section.

the startling news that prize fighting

John Arthur Johnsen, once the master
man in the art of fighting has des-
cended to the level that most all cot:

selves. The level of poverty. That
level where they find it necessary to

DANGERS OF SCHOOL
VACATION PERIOD,
ARETOLD
With vacation not very far in the
future and the resultant Increase fr
the number:of children playing in the
streets, great care will devolve ar
the motor vehicle driver to preven
serious accidents, says a “safety first’
bulletin newly issued to} its members
by the National Automobile Club.-
The club stresses the point that the
great majority of accidents in city
streets last year involving childhen
under 16 years of age, according to
statistical information supplied to the
club. This is declared to have been
due to the fact that children play in
the streets and are sometimes insensi-
ble to their danger.
In view of this fact, the club bulle
tin says. it as the plain duty of ever}
motor vehicle driver to do the think
ing for the children and to be so care
ful that the number- of accidents may
be reduced to a minimum. Every pre
caution should be taken by the driver
the club declares.
During the school months children
as arule are not so much on. the
streets as during the vacation period
Much of their play occurs on the
school grounds and they are under
more rigid supervision with the result
that most accidents involving children
occur during the period when they
have the greatest liberty.
“Children, due to their youth, are
frequently insenstble 10 tid Hangers of
playing on congested traMe streets,”
says Arnold Hodgkinson, general mau:
ager of the club, “and many more ate
thoughtless. This is especially true
in those sections of the city where the
only available playground for the chil.
dren is the street.
“Children in the course of their play
most of the time are oblivious to the
oncoming motor vehicle. They sud-
denly rush from béhind one vehicle di-
rectly into the path of another com-
ing from the opposite direction, ‘The
result, if the driver is not a miracle
man, is an accident and aoother re-
grettable fatality added to the long
list,
| “Motor vehicle drivers should make
it their business to be doubly careful
driving during the vacation period and
to be vigilant at all times when driv-
ing (ii the sections of the sity where
children are given to iplaying in the
streets due to the fact that play-
grounds are not available.
“Parents of children should make it
their business constantly to warn chil-
dren of their dangers in playing in the
street and to point out to them ‘how'
nccidens can be avoided. Safety in-
struction given by parents and teach-
ers, once thoroughly learned. fs not
forgotten and thus is one of the great:
est aids in the prevention of child traf-
fic fatalities that may be employed.”

Westerday morning as the milk man was making his early, delivery thousands and or eager excursionists, were wending their way to the various depots to be sure that they would be provided with an apace for their back east trip, by 9 o'clock on the Santa Fe and Central Stations took on the appearance of a circus, ample room and a large crowd, some of the most elderly in getting on the right train for their destination, suit cases, hand bags, grips, hat boxes, week end and overnight cases last, but not least the enviable lunch basket made up the personal outlay of baggage, Red caps and uthers were seaked with precipitation but managed to retain the indelible smile. The gatt man seems to be doing his duty and that was trying to keep the ones that were unny any means of transportation from passing through the gates, to every woman that left the city on that day there was ten women to say goodbye to her. At 10 o'clock the Apache of the Southern Pacific left in three sections, and at 10:51 the Gold Coast Limited departed from the Gold Coast sections at Ogden Utah one section will be dropped and at Omaha another will be discontinued. This speed demon will enter, Chicago in one section. The Sunset Limited of the Southern Pacific came in for its share by leaving on its regular schedule with two sections. The California Limited departed from the Santa Fe station in Newport Beach and Navajo pulled two sections. The De Luxa trains of the three roads left with their regular equipment carrying only one section. Each of the three roads received their full share of the first days tourists rush.
TOURISTS POUR IN TO CITY
Tuesday was a gala day in the annals of the Southern Pacific, Union Pacific and Santa Fe systems, when approximately 5000 fft of the 25,000 scheduled to enter the city within ten days, began pouring in on these trans continental trains, two sections of the Apache and Californian of the South ern Pacific, the Gold Coast Limited of the Union Pacific and the California Limited of the Santa Fe were filled to the brim. The total number of three transcontinental trains are responsible for the great influx of visitors, advice from Eastern centers indicate that the number of 1928 will set new records. $ ^{9}$
UNION STATION AT PLAZA
FAVORED BY RAIL BOARD
In its long-awaited decision on the Los Angeles Union Railway Terminal Case, made public to day, the Interstate Commerce Commission declares that "present and future public concession" for the construction of such a union station in the plaza area of this city. The Interstate Commerce Commission declined to make the order mandatory upon the roads contenting itself with the declaration that the public interest requires the Southern Pacific, Union Pacific and Santa Fe to extend a railroad to reach a service, a union passenger station and terminal which they may construct in the Plaza District.
MEMORIAL SERVICES LARGELY
ATTENDED.
The Eighth memorial services held Sunday under the auspices of The Pulman Porters Benevolent Association was largely attended by the porters friends. A large representation of local porters together with many porters from foreign districts were in attendance, the offering by Rev. J. D Gordon depicted the lives of the deceased porters, R. Fisher, J. Montgomery, A. Payne, T. A. Simms, R. Keith Bush, his past year had to the record by the year you more porters than any previous year in the history of this district. Too much credit cannot be given to Mr. A. Noel Master of Ceremonies, who worked unintently to make the programme the success it was.
AS WE SEE IT
When you were young you had few advantages.
You may have done fairly well since in accumulating property and other valuable possessions. But if you have not been successful it is easy for you to blame the fact on your poor start. And if you have been successful, do you think how much more you might have done if you had had the early preparation some have had for life's work. You might the reason for your success, big or small, rests in the very fact that you have had to work so hard to get along. You can think of some of your early boyhood friends whose opportunities were better than yours, but they have not kept space with you.
Possibly, if you had found it easy to travel along with them, you would never have advanced beyond them. Adversely, started you to work and
composed of the following line up: H, Bell; Lst base; W, Calboun; 2nd base; J, Bacyan; 3rd base; O, Jones; short stop; J, Chavert; R, F, W, Taylor, L; F, Vaughn, C, F; Al Soullw, Pitcher, and M, Calvert catcher, utility men Hannie Deal, E, D Lewis, Mr. Morris has secured a permit through the Washington pay board of commissioners for a private diamond where he attends to play some or the leading teams in the East. The Pullman Company has furnished the entire equipment for the team. As all of the equipment is owned by Morris is very anxious to arrange a game or set here. He can be reached at the Chicago East District.
The average porter of a Pullman car gets $80 a year from the Pullman Company in wages and $62 from its patrons in tips. Because the interstate Commerce Commission for the law under which companies could force the employer to pay higher wages or the passengers to stop giving tips, Pullman porters are talking strike. What the passenger pays for Pullman service seems enough to cover both the company. Just the passenger is not likely to stop, because it is a pet vanity of the well-td do.
The whole problem of tips and Pullman Porters; turns around the question of whether the porter is a Railroad Employee, rendering a necessary service and entitled to a living wage upon which he can depend or whether he is some sort of an inferior animal who should be satisfied and qualified to afford immunity to the legal obligations in other words is a porter a man like other railroad men entitled to the same treatment, that is a living wage, fair hours and conditions of work that the other railroad men enjoy. Is the Pullman Company being paid by the public for the service which the porter helps to render is so why does not the Company pay the porters he living wage
Tips are uncertain at their best. Let the *writer* of the above Editorial of the Examiner place himself in the position of being compelled to depend for his economic sustainance upon the whims of saurice ones pet vanity and he will get a different prospective of the situation.
Brotherhood Notes
Porters in Southern Districts show a marvelous response to the strike, contrary to the impression which cer- Pullman Agents attempted to circulate.
The Pullman Company is recruiting a large number of porters in the Southern District for the purpose of strike breaking the business of the Brotherhood's strike.

Southern Revenue, upon which no return was made to the Government for income tax purposes.
"A large force of Deputy Collectors are now engaged in checking real transfers, said H. Welch. I have neglected all taxpayers who have neglected to make proper returns to cover profitable transactions in real estate using 1927, to at once file an income tax return to cover, and save themselves penalties and trouble and the Internal Revenue Department much unnecessary work.
Returns filed before June 1st will save taxpayers considerable additional penalty.
The Collector further suggested that as a matter of precaution, any taxpayer who sold or exchanged real estate during 1927, to at once file included in his income tax return, and is in doubt as to proper procedure, get in touch with the Collector's office at once and secure free advice.

To find the things you show to me—
Oh thought desist—
No will of mine
Has brought me thus
Oh leave thou tonight
To rest—today the work was hard,
The physical has need to rest—
Oh thou which I really am must wait
Your given time.

SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH
Folks went away from our services last Sunday with such a feeling as the Psalmist expressed: "I was glad when they said unto me, let us go in to the house of the Lord."
On Sunday morning the pastor changed his announced subject and used as a text and subject "Escape for thy Life." There was a large crowd present.
The services of the Kappa Alpha Psi in the evening were very impressive. The chief feature was the address by Dr. Ballanger, associate pastor of University M. E. Church. It was full of practical suggestion and advice. Others who took part on the program were: Messrs. Jerome Hatcher, Booker T. Wright, Edwin, Bernard and Ronald Jefferson, Lawrence Lassiter, Gilbert Allen and Jones. An announcement of next Sunday's services will be found elsewhere on this page.
The women will reign supreme at Trinity Baptist Church, W. 36th St. and Normandie, Sunday, May 27, where Women's Day will be observed all day.
An excellent program at each service conducted by women.
The installation services of the Beth Eden Baptist Temple will start Sunday, May 28th, in honor of the newly elected pastor, Rev. E. E. Buckhalter, D. D., and continued through the week. There will appear each night some of the leading pastors and their congregations. It will be a week long to be remembered in the church life of Los Angeles.
Now that Mothers' Day is over and all the wonderful attributes are heard and repeated we are now settled down to the period of sassiness until the next 2nd Sunday in May rolls around. One outward visible sign of inward spiritual grace will remain—the Eastside Mother's Home. That is an institution that is functioning every day and playing the part of the mother 365 days in the year. Quite an interesting discussion of that institution was given Sunday afternoon when the Federated Women's Clubs presented a Mothers' Day program in the A. M. E. Church of Pasadena.
LETTER OF THANKS
Please allow me in this way to extend my most thankful acknowledgements to the Pastor, Rev. Gordon, the choir and members of the Tabernacle Baptist Church, to which my dear deceased wife was a member for their great services rendered during the funeral of my dear wife.
I am likewise grateful to Sir Knights and Daughters of Tabor, the S. M. T's and the hundreds of friends who paid such a loving tribute in these ceremonies. The lovely floral pieces, the sweet solos, the many kind expressions of sympathy paid by them to the memory of the dear one who is gone never, never to return.
To me, all of these tributes will remain living testimonies of which I shall ever cherish through the coming years.
Her long illness and suffering and her sweet passing were not sent in anger, but was a loving Father's care. I feel that in some sweet day, we will be again joined together, never, no never to depart.

Thursday afternoon, at the Masonic Hall, will be long remembered by the S. M. T's of San Diego, as this was the Joint Meeting for the visit of the Grand Princess, Sister Lucy Norwood. With the large hall filled with sisters, all in their white, was indeed a beautiful sight. Both Temples Mt. Olive No 6 and Goddess of Hope No 15, were 100% represented.
The meeting opened by singing Bless be the Tie that Binda, and prayer by Sister Bettie Robinson. The members all expressed that it was the best meeting they ever attended, in a Grand Princess' visit. So many important things pertaining to the law were explained by the Grand Princess. All of the Princesses and Past Princesses told how much they thoroughly enjoy the meeting. Sister Florence Morgan recited or told a story about Queen Esther, in honor of the Grand Princess, at the close she presented to the S. M. T's. a life-size picture of the Grand Princess, which was donated to both Temples by the Grand Princess.
Sis. Dettie Robinson, told of how long she had known the Grand Princess, even from her childhood, and that it was she that brought her into the S. M. T's, and encouraged her to go on up the ladder of success. She presented to her a beautiful framed verse of Friendship.
Goddess of Hope presented the Grand Princess, with a large hat box and Mt Olive No. 6 presented her with 1 dozen silver tablespoons and 1 dozen silver teaspoons. Sis. Emma Johnson presented a lovely box of stationery, and the Princess Council presented her with a beautiful bouquet of Carnations. It is said that prophet never receives honor in his own town, but the S. M. T. of San Diego certainly takes the record in giving honor to whom honor was due. The Princess Council and the Nurses Units were all out in their full regalia; all were escorted to the Banquet Hall, where a grand reception was enjoyed by all present. This end the annual visit of the Grand Princess. She has visited every Temple in the Jurisdiction of California and Oregon.
On Saturday night, May 12th, Sister and Brother J. T. Pirkle, E. 29th St. gave a Reception at their home, in honor of the return of Sister Lucy Norwood, the Grand Princess, from Portland, Oregon, and other cities where she made her annual visit to the Temples. All enjoyed a very pleasant evening.
On Friday afternoon, Sister M. A Hayden, entertained in honor of the return home of Sister Norwood, members of the Missionary Society and S. M. T's were present. All enjoyed the Social afternoon, at the home of Sister M. A. Hayden, 3058 Valle St.

Mr. and Mrs. Hogan were the guests of Mrs. Howard on Sunday, May the 12th. Mr. and Mrs. Hogan are seen quite frequently and we make a motion that they move to Long Beach.
Mr. Cyrus Jackson is on the road to recovery. All are urged to visit Mr. Jackson, he is at the Community Hospital in Los Angeles.
One of the most beautiful affairs given in Long Beach was a lovely dinner dance given at the home of Mrs. and Mr. Howard. Many out-of-town and Long Beach elite were present.
The rooms and tables were gracefully adorned with pink and orchid sweet peas.
A beautiful picture it was to gaze upon the prettily dressed couples swaying to the jazzical music of "Our Dolly" and her Saxophone players. Mrs. Howard is known for her successful parties.
Long Beach is planning for one of the largest affairs ever held in her community. From July 27 to August 17 there will be a World's Fair, known as the Pacific Southwest Exposition on commercial and harbor movements. A large crowd of visitors from foreign imports are expected here
plus many nobilities. You are urged to make reservation at once. Buy a season ticket and save. Special transportation will be provided.
Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell and Mr. and Mrs. Wilkerson motored to San Diego for the week-end celebrating Mrs. Mitchell's (Thelma) birthday. They reported having a wonderful time.
Among those who motored to the dance Sunday were Miss Ida Washington, Martha Jefferson, Elinor Washington, Messrs. Jimle Whynnie Avery Luco Cowan and Howard Fritz.

The race in general wishes to thank the boys especially of California Avenue for the gallant procedure toward the white boys, who should have had worse done than the boys did. I wonder what a white man would do if a Negro would drive along and meddle with their girls? The names of Jas. Baker, Shorty Plummer, Brannon and Jimmie are to be especially mentioned.
We wonder why a certain young lady is at one time full of smiles and then at another time she receives a letter stating her husband is in Hawaii. Now we wonder if she thinks he is gazing too steadily at the Hawaiian dancers? Why worry?

The annual Thanksgiving Day services were attended by a large throng despite the great heat. Six lodges, representing the Odd Fellows and Household of Ruth of Hanford, Fresno as well as the local orders, participated.
The principal address of the services was delivered by the Rev. McJeet of San Jose, Deputy Grand Master of the District Grand Lodge of the State, surrounded by an excellent supporting program.
The English Print Social sponsored by the Golden West Woman's Club and given at the Labor Temple was well attended and was an enjoyable affair.
Additional impetus to the activities of the younger set has been created by the arrival in the city of new young ladies, thus adding to small group of young fair sex.
Bright spots in the social calendar are the Lawn Social at the home of Mrs. E. B. Greenc, 1015 Calif., the Manless Wedding, Friday night at Cain's A. M. E. Church and the Fourth Annual Frolic of the Joymaker's Club on May 30th.

WHAT WE NEED
BY: VERNON E. S. BRUNSON
Do you need anything? Are you satisfied with your condition as it is now?—If so, don't read this.
Are you working at the thing you like to do, or are you toiling in the dirt of others making? Do you cherish a desire to get out of the old rut, to climb, to make your life worth while;?—If not, then you should get one quickly—that desire to do, that desire to be.
For the moment you desire to be something half of the problem of winning success in life is solved. Read the history of the great. Of course we can't all be Booker T. Washington, Stephen A. Douglases, Dunbars and the way, be it great or small, to raise the standard of our race—or erase the dark stain that seems to hover over us all. We can gain the honor and respect of other races only through our own efforts—individually and then co-operatively. Do we not need this?
Now, individually and personally, my dear reader, are you working at the thing you intend to make your life-work?—If so, you are fortunate. H'not, why? Because the thing that you want to be is unattainable, is unopened for you. You must work as the servant of, as the under dog of, all other races—and some seem content. If those above fail, the ones below must suffer—we being the dependant ones.
How can this condition be remedied? There is a way. Our employment problems can be solved, if we, as a race get together and act wisely. What we, need is race owned industries, house of commerce and trade. We have the brains among us to make captains of industry—but not the brains to co-operate. Co-operation! We need to learn the meaning of that word. The future of the colored man in America must be based on the action of it. In unity there is strength! We need to get together to invest our hard-earned dollars in something that will benefit us all—not in idle pleasure and amusements. We can't afford it! Not that I'm for cutting out all pleasure, nothing like that—just the substituting of it in another form. You get pleasure out of working for yourself—watching yourself grow.
The opportunities for industries are great, in this our Southern California. Let us take the field before it becomes too crowded. We talk about buying country clubs, beach resorts and other nonsense, when over two thirds of our young men, the flower of our race, are wasting their time, their brains, their efforts on jobs that will never grow up—they'll be the same thing they are now ten years from now—janitors, bootblacks, waiters, windowwashers, garbage collectors, servants, etc. Not that I have anything against these jobs; but I ask you, who do them, are you satisfied? Are you satisfied to stay in the same old rut until you are good for nothing else? I think the majority of you would answer, NO! very emphatically.
If the industrial, and commercial movement has got to start among our race, let it start right here—and soon. We are coming to the place where we must depend upon our own resources. We have many of brains and energy to handle vast corporations of com-

This is a follow up of the formal announcement in last week's issue concerning the opening of a Real Estate Office by Clara C. Hulbert, 1468 E. 20th Street.
Since that announcement, we have made a number of successful trips to the Valley Truck Farms. Do you remember a few years back when you were begged to buy property on Central Avenue between 8th and 20th Sts., which opportunity you failed to take advantage of and for which you are now paying high rent and leases on property which you could have owned?
Now in San Bernardino Valley Truck Farms which is only 60 miles from Los Angeles and a five minute drive from the heart of San Bernardino, we are now in a position to offer to the broad minded Race man a splendid opportunity to make a success by his past failures.
A splendid location for home seekers and also a splendid opportunity for truck farmers. Furthermore, we need Drug Stores, Groceries, Markets, Barber Shops, etc. This is an opportunity of a life time for a man or woman concerned about the future welfare of himself or his loved ones.
The land is subdivided into parcels or an acre or more and is sold at a reasonable price and on your own terms. An absolute guarantee of Title is issued with each deed. A large number of happy settlers are now on the property. Excellent schools up to the Junior College are provided. Water, light and telephone conveniences are in.

The wonderful increase in population is responsible for the call for an enlarged building program for the keeping up of the standard of education for which Los Angeles is noted.
Even at this time in face of the fact of a major building program already completed, the housing problem for our children is acute and thousands of children must go without schooling for the lack of room in the schools of our city.
Therefore it is the bounden duty of every citizen to turn out at the special election on June 5th and cast their vote in favor of the bond issue.
We are fully aware of the prevailing sentiment at this particular time relative to bond issues, but in this situation there is absolutely no reason which can be advanced against the very necessary proposition of keeping our educational facilities up to the highest possible standard and the building of enough modern school edifices to take care of the children for our public school system.

For the benefit of the uninitiated it is here stated that a kiss is a compression of the closed cavity of the mouth by the cheeks, giving a slight sound,when the rounded contact of the lips with another's is broken. It tastes better than it sounds.
A would-be crepe-hanger has informed an indifferent and unresponsive world that every kiss indulged in shortens one's life three minutes. If this bird has the correct dope he has certainly suggested a delightful method of leaving this vale of tears. If the pleasure of kissing must be given up in order to reach a ripe old age, a referendum on the subject would undoubtedly be unanimous in favor of a nearly but blissful demise.
But it is apparent that the factions in the case are contrary to the conclusions arrived at. There are no records available of long-distance non-stop osculatory feats with their attendant losses, so one must rely mere or less on personal experience.
The aforesaid experience convinces al but a few more fortunate and often-kissed ones that they were born to outlive Methuselah. For where is there a man with soul so dead as to admit that he has kissed more than is good for him? And to even inquire for such a woman is futile. Other evidence to refute the contention that osculation shortens life might be introduced, but why trouble one's self about it? If one could prove that a single kiss meant instant death there would be millions willing to make the leap. A little kissing now and then is relished by the best of 'em.
Each cigarette is said to be a coffin nail, tight shores ruin the feet and take the pleasure out of life, wars harm all and benefit none. But the consumption of cigarettes increases at an amazing pace, tight shoes pinch every feminine foot and each war has new innovations to delight the military gentry.

Memorial Day! And oh! the flood of memories.
Memories of the early observances, when the boys who had saved the Union swept in long processions to the cities of the dead, to pay honors to the comrades who had gone on before.
Memories of the parades of bygone years—the ever shortening lines of marchers, the ever lengthening lines of mounds marking the resting places of those who had entered upon the last bivouac.
Memories of the Spanish war—of the Maine, of Dewey at Manila, of the rush to battle in Cuba and in the far-away Philippines. And later, the home coming of the dead to sleep beside or near the heroes of the thearlies conflict.
Memories of the World war—of the boys who went cheering and singing through the streets on their way to the training camp, keeping step to the heart-quickening "Over There."
Memories of the long, heart-racking suspense and the fears after the boys had disembarked in France, and had gone forward to the battle line.
Memories of the thrills that swept over the land as the cables and wires spread the news of the glorious deeds of our boys on the crimsoned battlefields.
Memories of the heartbreaks as the fateful telegrams brought tidings of the death of the neighbor's boy—or of the boy who was nearer and dearer.
Thus it is that as the heroes of the old wars pass away the heroes of the new battles fill the vacant places, and pay homage to the glorious dead who had served their country in its times of peril. And even when lasting peace comes to the world there will be men, and women, and children in every community, large and small, to perpetuate observance of Memorial Day in paying tribute to the nation's dead.
An honest man is entitled to the one sure sign that he has found his work day each day with a sense. Love is the greatest thing a business is as natural as love for the great partner of success in out it.
The morning tells an intell erally, it rules his day. If it star spoiled. A dislike, on the part of the work of the day, is usually right place. If enthusiasm does no business man he may be sure
An honest man is entitled to happiness in his work. It is the one sure sign that he has found his true vocation. He greets his work day each day with a singing heart and loves his business. Love is the greatest thing in the world, and love for one's business is as natural as love for one's family. Indeed, love is the great partner of success in life. There can be no joy without it.
The morning tells an intelligent man many things. Generally, it rules his day. If it starts wrong with him, the day is spoiled. A dislike, on the part of a healthy man, for beginning the work of the day, is usually an indication he is not in the right place. If enthusiasm does not come in the morning to the business man he may be sure something is radically wrong, whether with his habits, his health, or his occupation.
When one wakes in the morning with regret that he must get up and go to work, he may well understand that a vital necessity of success and happiness is not his, and that it is high time for him to make a change in something—in his diet, his conduct or his vocation—for he certainly is not on the straight road to prosperity and achievement.
Where there is love there is a fair chance of success, because love creates eagerness to do and work and think for the thing loved in order that it may prosper. Those in a job only for the pay envelope, get only that out of their work. The pleasures they derive from the money is short-lived and is seldom renewed by salary increases. Employers do not reward with higher pay those who work only for love of money.
One time you certainly pay as you go is when you ride on a train.
The burning question soon will be the sun instead of coal prices.
The folding card table would be a great invention if it practiced moderation.
With some people religion is merely a kind of rabbit's foot to keep away bad luck.

If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened
Flattery isn't at all essential unless you are trying to marry a rich old widower.
Deal with the manager when possible. Underlings may be as unreasonable as you are.
Fecundity makes the common people victorious, and some day small cars may overcome locomotives.
Some years ago a person, or persons, who nursed a grudge against California introduced, surepitiously, a grass, which, after eliminating the "cus" words, is called Bermuda grass. Every joint carries a root, and土壤 is the grass which it touches. There's a town in Illinois on the banks of a body of water called Lake Michigan. Impolite persons call it the "Windy City," but we like "Chicago" better. Out from that city is creeping the joint vine of racial pride. Each joint getting a hold on the soil of race consciousness as it travels from that central point East, not we admit or south, not we admit or south, has been the means of more advanced race thought; more co-operation of race effort; or constructive race measures and more tangible results from their efforts than any other city. Fortunately, there has been a tendency to submit to leadership and what is more fortunate, that leadership has proven sane and courteous. is not giving landation to the race to amalgamate the heterogeneous mass into a working, concrete whole whose spirit of prudent achievement is fastening its root wherever it teaches out. Chicago has the lead in the material and civic interests of the Race. If one but takes a casual survey of the racial activities it witnesses, it is what makes the workable institutions which are organized for the proper assimilation of the migrant Negro than any of the cities to which they are assembling in numbers. Hence, when there arises some question of interest to the Race Chicago is able to make her influence felt because or a united front. Out from that city will come the first condescendance or more. It is rumored that sinister efforts are being made to sow the seed of a discontent to thwart the election. The seed can take root only in the soil that has not been fertilized thoroughly by the city's racial pride. The branch from the Bermuda seed has not had time to fasten on. We are convinced that the city will be made with the pride: Chicago's racial pride—of achievement they will forget and forego all of the petty jealousies, ennities, animosities and work with unstinted energy for success.
. . .
If nothing else is ever accomplished by Dr. Robert Moton, President of Tuskegee, his efforts for the unionization of the Negro religious bodies stamp him as one of the Race's few most diplomats. He will be successful to stand for an all-monument to his memory. The great A. M. Oe. Church in its Quadrenal session has voted for a union with the A. M. E. Zion Church. It would be one of the greatest accomplishments the race has ever made if those two great bodies would join in a church survey it is noticed that the strongest religious body, the Roman Catholic Church gained the greatest number of adherents. The weaker of the denominations show a decrease. The union of our great religious bodies has become morally and materially—for the race. It would become one of the greatest of the battering rams against prejudice. The color barrier would fall before it. Religion in all of its spirituality would become a racial asset. By all means, even though, as Dr. Moton says, "we have to sacrifice religious style for race." Let us not forget our religious institutions get together, and for "love of Race" subordinate our religious ideas. What does it matter, just so we keep in the path of the Master.
We are spending a few days in San Francisco among the boys who are in the political know. Of course there is a strong Hoover sentiment, and the "wise acres" see Hoover and Smith as the jockeys in the race between "he Donkey and the Pachyderm which will be run off in November. There is very little excitement along "Political Row." A a few of the boys are up in the air in legislative fence. Since Friend W. Richardson declined the issue with "Our Hiram" the U. S. senatorial primary fight will be a "dud." Everybody up this way is sorry that they will be unable to slip in one for Lieut. Gov. Fitts when he makes his run for the L. A. District Attorneys' office. The Lieut. Governor has numberless friends in the north of the State.
Say! That Bittmore Hotel episode has crested more of a furore than one would imagine. It is the talk among the women's clubs as well as the man on the street. In this day of awakened pride in race and race achievements, one must be very careful how they belittle those efforts. No man's position is so impregnable but that public indignation cannot make him a pariah. To confess one's individual inferiority, is the sole business of that individual. It is entirely different when they seek to fasten it on an entire people.

Kidnapped In Hollywood by White Man
Tuesday evening at 10:00 P. M. there was reported in the Hollywood Division to Officers J. O. Fife and J. B. Thomas, who answered a call to 996 E. 57th St. by Miss Roselle De Pre, 19 years, the following: Meth De Pre said she worked at 5753 Tenth Avenue, Hollywood, for Mrs. Chesapeake, 1153, where she spares for two small children. She was going to the store at 1153, where she work, when a white man came up behind her and grabbed her arms, put her in a car, tied her hands and feet together and took her up into the hills to where there was a large sign upon the mountain. The victim stated that he struck her on the 21st and threw her out. She further stated that at no time could she get a good look at him or give any description of her supposed attacker.
She also stated that some time later, one Jackie Pennington of Hollywood came by and hearing her scream came to her relief, untitled her binds and feet and took her in his car to the street car, and she came home.
While on the "U" car en route home someone in a car drove up along the street car and asked the conductor if he had a girl on the car (giving her description). She thinks this is the same man who attacked her in Hollywood.
When the victim got off the car she ran home as fast as she could and as soon as she got in the house, someone tried to get into the house, finding around to the rear door. At that time her father, Mr. De Pre, had gotten his gun and told the person to leave or he would shoot. He could give no description of the person.
The police could find no trace of the suspect in the neighborhood.
EMPLOYMENT IS GETTING BETTER
THE URBAN LEAGUE REPORTS
MILWAUKEE PROGRESS; MIN-
ERS TO BE RETAINED IN THE
PITTSBURGH DISTRICT
The Industrial Relations Department of the National Urban League of which T. Arnold Hill is Director sum-
maries employant for April as for lows;
While unemployment continues to exist evidences of activity in various parts of the country indicate that conditions are growing better. Public projects which were advocated by the press and social agencies to give employment in the building of roads, railways and construction, and public buildings have had little to do with this improvement. The chief factor appeared to be construction of privately owned buildings, work in the farming districts which always comes with spring, building and repair programs of railroads and of course the approach of the automobile industry to its normal level of production. Fort Washoe, Philadelphia, Winston-Salem, Baltimore and Pittsburgh are the principal cities that have provided information to substantiate this.
Milwaukee made enviable progress in new positions for Negroes during the month of April, far several steel foundries employing large numbers of Negroes who have increased production tally all of their own, even tallying all of their own available. Also two automobile concerns employed drivers to transport new cars from Milwaukee to Chicago. A tanning Company added 20 colored men to its force. A drug store syndicate pur-chased a chain of stores and colored agement took charge in stores that did not previously employ Negroes. A large enterprise manufacturing tubes and kitchen utensils added to their colored force by 40% during the past month. A new theater employed maids, pages and porters, and political activities of Negroes netted their jobs and race and price and diplomatications that qualified officers will be placed on the police force.
One of the most reliable hotels in Columbus, Chio, began the use of Negro bell-boys last month. Springfield, Ml., reported more women applicants sent to work during the past two months than ever before, while the number of unemployed men employed by the company was large. Employment by one of the Pittsburgh Coal companies of a colored welfare worker indicates that Negro miners, who during the past year jumped from 8% to 40% of the total employees of the company, will remain permanently now that the conditions in the mines are rapidly returning to their normal status. The company has also proof of its policy to retain Negro workers who came to their rescue during the strike even though the old miners are being re-employed.
PULLMAN BROW- BEATS DIXIE COLLEGES
By: Harvey O'Connor
New York (F. P.)-While clerks toled over tabulating machines counting a practically unanimous strike vote against the Pullman Company, W. H. Des-Verney, a founder of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Potters and its assistant general organizer, told Federated Press of the labor-hating corporation's second line of defense against the union. Des-Verney and corrup-tion having failed to them the porters demand for union recognition, Pullman is urging pulpit, press and college to undermine the union. Des Verney, just back from a 'swing through the South, encountered Pullman's powerful propaganda penetrating into every corner of Dixie. College leaders, his lifelong friends, lamed and hawed when the veteran Negro organizer asked for the floor in student assemblies. Embarrassed, they explained awkwardly that Pullman influences had indicated that Brotherhood speakers must be barred, if college students are to find employ-
Then they told Des Verney of Pullman's three-year old policy of not hiring college men. So powerful has been the union's appeal to the imagination of Negro youth that the Brotherhood is known in every college as the outstanding champion of the rights of African Americans. They are afraid to hire college men and is cutting out important avenues of employment for graduates, unless Negro colleges and industrial schools see the light in the right way.
Neither will Pullman hire northern colored workers, as the result of the motherhood's successful drive for men in the workforce. Negroy says. And so their labor agents go into backyard rural communities in Dixie to pick out young fellows to man the cars. Fearful that even these simple lads will be "infected" with unionism, labor agents warn them not to associate with northern colored women, they are "disloyal" and not to be trusted, these raw workers are told.
Southern preachers are fed bumblebee, too. Pullman spreads wild tales about unionism's attitude toward the church. Fingers are pointed to Brotherhood leaders and the word "bolshvik" is whispered into credulous ears. In northern cities, too, many colored preacher swallow. Pullman yarn and become tools of anti-communism. No Nazi ever, leading pastors are wise to Pullman's game, says Des Verney, and refuse to paddle Pullman bunk.
The Company is intensifying its drive to terrorize employees against the strike move. Loyal Pullman Porters Clubs have been formed in all parts of the country. In Washington, 12 men old in the service, were fired for union affiliation. Then they were invited back if they would join the Loyal Club. One prominent unionist was given the choice of pressing a resolution. All unions are passed expressing loyalty to the company. These are posted in the yards and all workers forced to sign them.
"There's our answer." Des Verney smiled, as he pointed to long robbons of adding machine tape bearing the tabulated vote of porters in every railway center from Bangor to Danvers. "We've got to test the majority of the porters have voted for a strike to compel Pullman to deal with the Brotherhood, despite every method known to industrial tyranny. Porters are a uft in asserting that robbons are not the porters on the railroads, want union protection and mean to get it."
DISTINGUISHED GUESTS TO BE PRESENT
Fisk is fast making preparation for what promises to be one of the greatest commencement seasons marking close of a most eventful year. Right upon the heels of a successful one million dollar endowment drive have come large gifts and bequests, setting Fisk in the vanguard of American colleges.
Mr. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., is to deliver the commencement address. The expressed purpose of his coming to Fisk at this time is to formally acknowledge and endorse theask program of education and endorse theask program of education and momentum to the whole field of cultural advancement for Negroes. A Fisk School of Music seems to be in the making, offering a bachelor's degree in music. Research in the sciences is already well under way and the newest development is theask program. Mr. Julius Rosenwald who has just made a twenty-five thousand dollar conditional gift to Fisk is so interested in its present development, that he is bringing a special car of friends from Chicago to see Fisk. Every member of the Board of Trustees, he has told Dr. Crawford of New York City, is expected to be present.
The alumni of Fisk are organized as never before all over the country. About forty clubs in over twenty states are organized solidly to the support of their Alma Mater. An Alumni Secretary has been engaged during the past year to further promote their organization. As a result, the Fisk Spirit has run high among the Old Grads, so that large numbers are expected back to their respective class reunions. Dr. George E. Haynes, '03,
of the Federal Council or Churches, New York City, is on the Alumni Day program for an address; also: James E. Stamps, "11, of the Victory Life Insurance Company, Chicago, will be a speaker. An alumni parade is planned and an alumni-faculty baseball games will be held for the entertainment of all. The Negro in Art Exhibit promises to be one of the outstanding features of the commencement season. The date of the final concert of the Mozart Society composed of over 1,000 students, will be down in commencement week. Tuesday evening, June 5th, in order to give out-of-town guests an opportunity to hear this much heralded organization.
Vote For the School Bonds
SITUATION IF BONDS DO NOT CARRY
It is impossible to estimate the far-reaching damages that will result if the School Bonds do not carry. It is well understood that adequate schools are necessary to the commercial and industrial growth of any city and that neither capital nor labor will come to a city where children cannot be educated properly.
In political elections if one party or individual is not elected, another will be. There is no alternative in the case of school bond elections. It is a case of SCHOOLS CR NO SCHOOLS. It is not an election. Suppose the number of half day classes will be immediately doubled and hundreds of rocus will be crowded beyond their capacity, endangering the health and safety of children.
Until the situation is relieved by more buildings through a bond is sue there is no way of preventing the continuous increase of half day sessions, the overcrowding of classes and the overcrowding of classes and means the curtailing of the educational opportunities of thousands of children; among whom ay be your child. Children will be educated. If not in the schools, then on the streets, in alley, and through all sorts of unorganized activities and under all sort of undesirable conditions and surroundings. It remains for the voters of the Los Angeles School Districts to decide whether or not the children of Los Angeles shall have a half a day's schooling or less. If the bonds do not carry, the responsibility for children will be forced back upon the parents for the hours when they are too of school and should be in school. K. G. LAMAR. Secretary Federated Voters League.

Jackson, Mississippi, May 23—EO forts to restrain Perry W. Howard and his associates from holding a primary, on the part of George L. Shelldon and his group of lil whiteys went for naught here Monday when the Supreme Court reversed and remanded the injunction case from Forest County in which Chancellor Dale enjoined attorney Howard's faction.
Judge Smith, delivering the opinion of the court declared that he concurred in the feeling that the courts had no jurisdiction to interfere in the procedure of political party machinery under the primary election laws, even though the rights of the members of the party may be infringed upon. Thus the Shelldon faction, which has also elected delegates, will contest the right of the Attorney Howard's delegates for seats at the National G. O. convention, it is the belief here that Howard will again emerge victorious.
Petersburg, Va., May 22—Because a group of boys had annoyed him and "meddled with him," Thomas Bowman fired into the group wounding Gilbert Penny, one of the boys in the crowd. Bowman was held for the grand jury by the Police Justice Clements.

WILL VISIT THE GOLDEN WEST
HENRY ALLEN BOYD AND
PARTY TO TOUR CALIFORNIA, WASHINGTON
AND OREGON
Los Angeles, Calif., (Special), May 24.—Another visit is to be made out here this summer by Henry Allen Boyd, the Secretary of the Sunday School Congress and the Secretary of the School Convention at Nashville, Tennessee. The Rev. Mr. Boyd is to be accompanied by his wife, Mrs. H. A. Boyd, his daughter, Miss Katherine Boyd, and his private secretary, Miss S. B. Wilson. They will be attending the School Convention that convenes here July 11th to the 18th.
Plans are already being made by the Baptists or Los Angeles to give him a very busy program for the seven days that he is to be in the City of Roses. While the pary is not to remain particularly in Los Angeles even today, he is to be far South as San Diego, where he is to speak one night during the week to the Baptists of the extreme southern end of the state. It is known that he is to deliver a sermon at the New Hope Baptist Church, Rev. A. Lively, pastor, at the eleven o'clock hour Sunday morning. It is to appear at 3:00 P.M. M. at some other church, and then on Sunday night at still a different church; but on Sunday morning, July 15th, he is to conduct a Model World Sunday School, as that will be the next Sunday morning at 3:00 P.M. Morning at the eleven o'clock hour will be the World Sunday School Theme, "Thy Kingdom Come."
Hundreds of his friends will greet him in Los Angeles, "Henry Alien," as he is well known, is a native Texan, and because of the great number of Texas folks in this city, he will be received. Then too there are Tennessee folks in Japan, other states with whom he has worked for more than twenty-five years. This quartet will be delegates to the World Sunday School Convention, where they hold membership. Rev. Boyd and his family attended the Convention some years ago when it ministered to Japan. The Baptist ministers of the city are making preparations for his coming. The president of the California Baptist State Convention, the Rev. Dr. Coleman, is planning to meet him in this city and accompany him to Oakland and San Francisco. They are also planning to make San Jose and other points, and then proceed to Portland, Oregon, Seattle, Washington, and from there the Yellowstone, Yellow River, four and a half days in the Park they will go back to Nashville by way of Chicago.
NO SEGREGATION IN M. E. CHURCH
NO SEGREGATION IN M. E. CHURCH
Kansas City, Mo., May 23.—The fears of the Negro constituentity of the Methodist Episcopal Church, that if the denomination was made international in scope, they would be set apart in a central conference or their own, were quieted here Tuesday when amendments safeguarding their interests were passed. The Negro delegates were girded for action and the report was widespread that they would oppose vigorously any plan which exists to a certain extent in the church at the present time has never been recognized in Methodist law. The delegates were assured that the plan was in nb sense a scheme for legislation to segregate the Negroes from their fellow. Methodists in America.
Butler's Influence Gets Big Appropriation for Harlem Hospital
(Bv: A. N. P.)
New York City, May 23.—Through the efforts of Dr. Charles A. Butler, president of the Citizens Welfare Council of Harlem the Board or Estimate has seen fit to appropriate $1,700,000 for the Harlem hospital. Dr. Butler is one of the leading citizens of Harlem and an outstanding champion of our group in this city. For a number of years he has been making a strenuous fight to better the living conditions of Negroes in that section of the city and the Harlem hospital fight was one phase of his campaign. Advising Dr. Butler of the action or the Board of Estimate, G. J. Atwell said: "If Harlem had more men of your type, that community would rival the other sections of Greater New York. Keep up the <u>good work</u>.

While we as a people perhaps consume more meat per capita than those of any other group, it is to be regretted that in all South Los Angeles we haven't a single meat market owned and operated by one of our group. A visit to the new Houston Drug Store No. 2, 11406 Wilmington Avenue convinced the writer of this article, that Mr. Houston made no mistake in securing this splendid location. The place is splendidly equipped for business and presents an attractive appearance. Mrs. Grace L. Boswell, Manager, knows how to meet the public and give service. With these two assets so necessary to success in business, nothing but success can be expected. Already the new store is enjoying a large trade.
Dr. Thomas P. Moore, physician and Surgeon with offices at 1671 E. 114th Street, has practiced medicine in this locality for a number of years. Because of his efficient service as a Physician and Surgeon, he has a large practice among the people of various gorups.
Dr. Ralph W. E. Bledsoe, 10366 Wilmington Avenue, is a Physician and Surgeon of many years' experience. He has not only a large practice in this locality, but various parts of the city. He is of a family of physicians and had a large practice in his home state before coming to Los Angeles. His office is in the Knox & Knox Realty Bld. 10352 Wilmington Avenue, and is splendidly equipped for medical and surgical treatment.
Mr. Andrew Winbush, Prop. of Wilmington Barber Shop, located in the Knox & Knox Realty Bldg., 10354 Wilmington Avenue, has a shop well equipped and presents as neat an appearance as any shop in the city. M Winbush is a barber of many years experience, having worked for a number of years in one of the leading shops of Greater Los Angeles.
MACEDONIA BAPTIST CHURCH
Rev. L. M. Curtis, Pastor
The S. S. was well attended at Macedonia, numbering about 135 in attendance. There are 14 groups in our Sunday School ranging from the ages of 70 to 1 year. Each group has a motto, class and automobile name. The group that leads in enrollment of new students and finance will always be in lead, and will be published each proceeding issue, that the public will know the class that is in the lead each Sunday.
At 11 o'clock we reassembled for the morning services conducted by our pastor, Rev. L. M. Curtis. We had a number of visitors with us, and our pastor as he always does, gave them that hearty welcome to come any time and feel at home among friends.
At 3 o'clock a large assembly witnessed wonderful services held at the "Old Folks Home". Singing services were conducted by the representatives of the Allensworth's Club, Rev. F. W. Botts of St. Paul Baptist Church delivered the message, and he preached a glorious sermon, selecting for his discourse "The sufferings and patience of Job". Really our hearts did burn within, as he talked to us by the way.
"The feast of the seven tables" will be given by the Missionary sisters of Macedonia church. We are inviting the public to be present and help us to make this entertainment a success.
THE BUS SITUATION IN SOUTH
LOS ANGELES
About the last of January the Busses operating in the south end of the city changed hands from colored to white operators. About that time the Citizens' Council and industrial League was being organized. The Council immediately took up the matter and as a protest advised the people to walk instead of riding the Busses, until the Council had opportunity to make some investigation and if possible take some step to remedy the situation.
A committee on transportation was appointed and the matter was taken up with the Board or Public Utilities. The Board informed the Committee that under the rules governing the action of the Board, they were prohibited from issuing a Permit to operate Busses in the same territory to any other Corporation unless they charged a fare in excess of the Corporation already in said territory.
This or course made it impractical for the Council to get farther in this direction to adjust the transportation situation. While other plans were under consideration, the Pacific Electric Company made a change in fares that slightly benefited the people in this locality. By boarding the cars at either Abila Station on the Long Beach line or at E. and So. Compton Avenue, a round trip fare may be had to the city for twenty-five cents. This fare also applies to those boarding the car on The Santa Ana line in Alameda Boulevard. This is a reduction of approximately one fourth on the fares from the above named points to the city.
The Council therefore is advising the public to take advantage of these rates and board the cars at either of these stations, instead of riding the Bus to the station to take the local which is five cents more for the round trip to the city and much slower service. To those who must or will ride the Bus we advise them to ride the Bus that is driven by the Colored drivers, as one of the Bus owners is giving employment to two of our group by employing Colored drivers.

If You Fail To Read--THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE--You May Never Know it Happened
The Sunday School last Sunday had a large attendance. Mrs. Sadi Wright, District Superintendent from Pasadena, inspired the Sunday School with a wonderful address. At the eleven o'clock service the Pastor spoke from the subject "Mercy and Judgment." Many visitors were present and were introduced to the congregation. Mr. J. W. O'Neal, blind singer and reader, sang a solo to the delight of all. Mrs. Belle O'Neal, wife of the singer, was present and accompanied her husband on the piano in the selection.
At three o'clock in the afternoon the "Ancient United Knights and Daughters of Africa" held their annual thanksgiving service. There was a splendid turnout of the members of each department. In advance of the sermon, a splendid program was rendered, which was greatly enjoyed by the large audience present. This was the first time this splendid order has held its annual service in this part of the city. The splendid way in which they acquired themselves is an evidence of the splendid type of characters who constitute the membership of this splendid order. The U. N. I. A. Band played for the order. Grant Chapel A. M. E. Choir furnished the music. Rev. T. F. Jones preached the sermon.
The Junior and Senior Allen Christian Endeavor Societies met in joint meeting at six o'clock and were adressed by Mr. A. A. Thomas, state President of the Allen Christian Endeavor work. The address was very inspiring indeed. Mr. Thomas also spoke at the close of the evening service. The pastor will preach at both services next Sunday.
Friendship Baptist Church
Rev. A. B. Ramsey, Pastor
Sunday was in banner day atthis church. Being the closing day of the Anniversary, the services were largely attended at each service. The services during the week will long be remembered as the most active and interesting week's services in the history of the church. Many of the Pastors and choirs from churches in the city participated in the services, as a token of respect and appreciation for the Pastor; wife and daughter, the Pastor was presented a purse of fifty dollars and beautiful bouquet of flowers. The Pastor's wife and daughter were presented each a purse and bouquet of flowers also. The Pastor will preach at each of the services next Sunday and invites the public to worship with them.

Lafayette Washington, the nephew of Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Knox won first prize in a receipt running contest. There were several other schools represented.
Two serious automobile accidents have occurred on Compton Ave. in the last ten days. In one of these accidents one man was killed and a woman seriously injured. In the other case three persons were injured and both cars badly damaged. This is another evidence that the suggestion made at the last meeting that the League take some action to stop so much speeding and redress driving on the main thoroughfares in this vicinity, a timely suggestion.
Mr. and Mrs. L. G. Eggleston, 1357 E 12th St., are enjoying the pleasure of a new Nash seadan. Mr. Eggleston is the Chorister of Grant Chapel A.M. E. Church Choir, Director of the Young Peoples' Orchestra and is active in many of the Religious and Fraternal activities of So. Los Angeles. He also gives lessons in the use of wind instruments and has several pupils studying under him at the present time. Mrs. Eggleston is also active in church and fraternal circles.
George Comfort a David Starr Jordan High School student is making a wonderful record as an athlete, having won four medals and two ribbons recently in athletic activities of the Marine League Junior Olympics, of Los Angeles County High Schools.

While churches are essential to the development of any community there is a possibility of a community being over churched. This condition seems to exist in So. Los Angeles.
A recent check shows twelve churches of our group in this locality; when perhaps one-third this number would be sufficient to meet the needs of the church going public. This growing tendency among us to establish meeting places in a private home, store building or some other unsightly, uninviting place and call it a church, just to have somebody to lead, the expense or which must be paid by some one; is not; only an economic loss but does not at al contribute to the success of the Christian cause.
Mrs. Glaine Rhodes, 1470 E. 11th St. has been confined to her home for several days because of illness.
Rev. Denby, 2009 E. 116th St., is very ill, having suffered a slight stroke of paralysis.

Mrs. Tutson the hostess who is famous for her dainty dishes and as an entertainer made it a delightful and enjoyable evening for all.

Many people have called at the office daily on business and other matters and to take out memberships in the organization, and pledge their support to the organization

The Scout Master reports the boys as being intensely interested and making wonderful progress in Scout work.

This is the open season of professional politicians, that is, hirelings who propose to sell their "influence" to candidates who are ignorant of our sentiments toward issues and men. I would suggest that we give notice now that hirelings are not wanted in this vicinity.
Los Angeles has been infested with these pests for years, and the results have been deplorable; but how the citizenry is awakening to this condition and they have declared an open season, but let us not become befogged in the issue and allow ourselves to become aligned with one of two camps of these parasites who are now fussing among themselves. Let us stand by and see one of the other destroyed; and as soon as one is destroyed and the other weaken, then it will be our chance to destroy the last of these pts hunters.
It is necessary for us to do this if we are to ever amount to a respective body in politics. It has been the experience here in Los Angeles for our self-appointed leaders to seek out the candidates who will contribute and in every instance the contributing candidate has been the candidate who will deliver us from all woe. If we are citizens, let us so act; American institutions, but we will ever remain in our present to continue to represent us at the City Hall, Hall or Justice, etc. Let us take down the old shot gun during this open season and go after these "Lackeys."
Very truly yours,

"PARADE OF NATIONS, JUNE 16
Something of what the international Olympic Games of 1922 will bring to California will be seen by the great crowds that witness the Southwest Olympic finals and entertainment carnival at the Coliseum in Los Angeles on June 16. Many of the distinctive features of the great Olympiads will be duplicated at the Coliseum show. It is pointed out by Robert S. Weaver, president of the Southwest Olympic Games Committee.
Among these will be the "Parade of Nations," in which athletic contenders of Southern California, Arizona and New Mexico will carry flags of the forty-six nations participating in the international contests. The colors will be dipped as they are carried by the reviewing stand, in which Governor Young has been invited to occupy the post of honor. Another feature will be the releasing of a flock of doves, symbols of peace, just before the competitions in the arena begin. Both these exercises are among the important formalities of the Olympic Games
In the track and field events at the Coliseum it is freely predicted that winners here will be winners of at least eight of the contests at Amsterdam that will establish world leadership. These contests are the 100 meters run, the expected winners being Paddock, Borah, Lombardi or Wykoff; 200 meters run, Borah or Paddock; 110 meters hurdles, Dye, Welch, Uichols or Maxwell; shot put, Kuck or Houser; discus, Houser or Moeller; pole vault, Earnes; hop, step and jump, Casey; 400 meters relay, Draper, Lombardi and Wykoff to run on winning team.
Sale of tickets by mail for the Coliseum show continues steadily at Southwest Olympic Games Committee headquarters, 1116 West Washington street, Los Angeles.
Rush Youth To Roanoke For Safe Keeping
(BY A. N. P.)
Rocky Mount, Va., May 23.—Officers here thought it best to move John Wade, a seventeen year old youth, charged with killing a white boy the same age, to Roanoke for safe keeping.
The shooting and killing occurred here Sunday afternoon about four o'clock. Many whites claim that Wade shot without provocation, and other witnesses to the affair declare that Wade was set upon by the white boy and his companion and shot in self-defense.
Feeling ran high following the killing and it is believed here the wisdom of the officers in moving Wade to another city prevented him from being lynched.

Neal Clisby Beats John S. Lester Johnson After Hard Battle
All the cleverness, headwork and fighting ability vested in the perfect fighting body of Neal Cisby was necessary and was put into action trying to end the battle between he and John Lester Johnson in a knockout. But the long years in the ring against such men as Kid Norfolk, Johnson showed plenty of gameness under fire but he had to stand plenty of fire for the Eriveside cogar was forever trying to lay his deadly right on Johnson well covered button. Neal took every round but the eighth which was even. Johnson came into the ring receiving a good ovation from the old timers who had seen him box in many another battle, while Cisby received the rousing cheers that befitted the welcome to the heavyweight champion of the West Coast.
Mike O'Gara's mail is loaded daily with requests from eastern arenas for Neals' services, for he is recognized as equally the formist contender for the champion-ship as Godfrey has been considered to be. There is no maybe business in those fist of Clisby. Mike O'Gara can see big things in the offing for Clisby. If he continues on his sensational way. On the showing of Clisby Tuesday night was decided a second George Godfrey fight. O'Gara once a fighter himself has not been in the managing racket long. But he has a right to be enthusiastic over a puncher like Clisby showed him self to be. There are few heavyweights in the world right now who can sock with Clisby.
220-Yard Dash Record SET BY NEGRO
Sprinter
(By: A. N. P.)
Chapaign Ill., May 19.—Robert Metcalfe, Negro dash man from Tildeh High of Chicago, shattered the national interscholastic mark for the 220 yard dash, when he breasted the tape in 211-5 seconds at the state High School track meet today. His time was 1-5 second better than the national record held by Carter of University High of Chicago.
Good fishing in the streams near Los Angeles is still reported. A record-sized trout was brought into Dyas' Los Angeles store the past week. It was caught by Buster Erhardt and weighed 10½ pounds. The fish was 27 inches long. The big trout was the first recorded this season on the Dyas trophy.
PICNIC AND BA
JOE ANDERSON VS. COWBOY JACK WILLIS AT OLYMPIC AUDITORIUM TUESDAY NIGHT
What is predicted to be one of the best battles in the season will take place at the Olympic Auditorium Tuesday night when the tall, game, genial Joe Anderson who hails from Covington, Kentucky, enters the ring against Cowboy Jack Willis, who ap peared against Mike McTigue two weeks ago in a sensational draw. Local fans are fond of Joe's style of fighting; many of them first seeing him in action against Lomsiwh whom he fought with a brown hand. Joe was a sable mate of George Godfrey of Baron Jim Daughtery, has been going great guns of late winning several bouts in the north. He fights every minute and is a great showman. Joe doesn't claim to have any style but he says he makes up for it in letting the other fellow know that he is in there to fight.
Willis gainer the most prominence in his recent battles by beating Charlie Long and made a hit with the local fans against McTigue. "Wed" Wadhams has selected a juicy plum in these well matched battles, and has a splendid supporting card lined up behind them.
THE GATE OF ONE-EYE CONNOLLY
PAC
ONE-EYE CONNOLLY
Sportsmen all and movie fans, pause
while, relate
A tragedy of Hollywood, a bitter jest
of fate—
The tale of One-Eye Connolly and how
he got the gate.
Every sporting meet of fall, winter, summer, spring—
For years in years he saw them all.
Never missed a thing.
Wherever eager crowds went in, One Eye also went.
He passed the ticket taker, up but caught the Main Event.
He made his boast from Coast to Coast he'd never spent a cent!
his lonely lamp.
Then One-Eye went to Hollywood where screen struck cohorts go. He found a job to guard the mob from out the studio—
The perfect gatekeeper he'd be, for every ruse he'd know.
ARBECUE BY LONE
DOINGS OF THE NATIONAL LEAGUE
By Q. J. GILMORE
Kansas City, May 13.—For the Associated Negro Press.
After three weeks of play the clubs of the Negro National League are fast rounding into form. The St. Louis Stars not conceded a place in the first division have been the surprise or the season.
The Detroit Stars seem to be the club that they will all have to beat. The Stars have been greatly strengthened by the addition of several of the Kansas City Monarchs and a few promising youngsters.
The Kansas City Monarchs after rather a bad start are back on their home lot and from the way they played in the first game, they are destined to do good work.
The Birmingham Black Barons from past performance should be near the top has flopped in the series so far played. The Club which is about the same that won the last half of the 1927 race has not been able to get to going.
The Memphis Red Sox considered the weak spot in the League has been able to win from such clubs as the Monarchs, the Cubans, and The Birmingham Black Barons. They have three good pitchers in class C. Bell and Tyler, and about the best catcher in Negro Base Ball in little Larry Brown, the Club is out there lastling and will win many games.
The Chicago Giants, after getting away to a flying start against the Black Barons struck a snag when they went up against the Detroit Club. The Giants are not any stranger than they were last season even with the addition of Jelly Gardner, one of the best in the game.
With such pitchers as Foster, Harney, and Powell, the Giants will be in the fight to the finish.
Cleveland is made up of several players of unknown quality although the Club is very weak behind the bat and needs a couple of pitchers, Dixon once considered the king of catchers, is doing all of the back stopping duty since Barnes jumped the Club. Manager Duncan is expecting to get Murry, the St. Louis Stars' catcher and three other well known players in a few days. The Cleveland Club which has been bothered with internal strife is now in good condition and will get better results as the season grows older.
The Cuban Stars have a much stronger club than their standing indicates. They won two out of five from Memphis but struck a snag at St. Louis just as the other clubs have.
Friday at Hollywood Jimmy Piela vs. Ignatio Fernandes, main event, ten rounds; Jack Roper, vs. Bill Johnson, semi-wndup, six rounds; Joe Ortega vs. Joe Pimnthal, six rounds.
Tony Fuente, Los Angeles, Mexican
heavy weight, has been signed
to meet Dewey Massey, Negro slugger in
a ten-round event.
They put him into uniform. They paid
him ready cash.
It was great while it lasted, till poor
Connolly got rash.
For it took only tour short weeks his
final gate to crash.
He ran true to his training, to those
gate crashings of yours.
He couldn't say. "They shall not
pass!" defending his screen door.
He let so many people in—he's not

"I have just had two Spaniards come over from Spain to see me and offer me $30,000 to box Paolino in the middle of July. If both are on their feet after 10 rounds, they agree to call it a draw," writes "Baron" Jim Daugherty from Philly.

'Member When?
SAILOR SMITH
NEWAGE SERVICE
Just by way of reminiscence do you recall that terrific battle at Vernon arena when Son Goodrich, the San Antonio South Paw gave Sailor Smith an artistic trimming? Your humble Sports editor gave Son his first lesson in Fisticuffs; later he fought Tiger Flowers and all the best of the ring gae. He should still be going good. His former teacher is pen pushing now instead of leather pushing; battling inward and outward prejudice and poor sportsmanship instead of ring opponents.
Joe Glasser writes from Chicago that Eddie Shea has his hand in a plaster for four weeks, according to a letter from him. His hard luck came with Mike O'Dowd. Shea calls it a fixx match.
ATTABOY, EDDIE,
OL' HOSS!
YOU TELL 'EM!
Somewhere in Texas there is an uncrowned hero in the shape of a smiling but determined white cowboy, who single-handed, saw to it that Eddie Gardner was not molested by hoodlums who dared him to run by the white contestants. It happened two week ago, just before the runners crossed the line into Oklahoma. Jeers, threats and vile names were hurled at Eddie by his annoyers. "Get out! you better not come into town ahead of a white man," they yelled.
"This race is for back and white, and I am in it to win if I can," answered the determined Seattle plugger.
Admiring his grit the unknown cowboy rode all the rest of the day behind Eddie, with a shot gun, and dared anyone to touch him.

Take a look at some of the modern girls as you pass them on the street, what a fine, upstanding, healthy, cheerful lot they are.
attire is still hot, stuffy and unhealthy, while the feminine apparel is the very acme or comfort, simplicity and oxygen-inviting, body-covering.
In my next story will be a relation of some of the notable achievements of girls in the world or sports and their comparison with that of the men.
Dress emancipation has worked wonders for them, it has helped bring about emancipation from other time-worn traditions as the women's inferiority.
Now, the average girl is healthier than the average boy for masculine
attire is still hot, stuffy and unhealthy,
while the feminine apparel is the very
acme of comfort, simplicity and oxygen-
