ALEXANDER HEADS SMITH FORCES On The Sidewalk By: C.A.B. VOLUME 42 The Democratic cheftains radiating from the far East in close unison with the workers in the far West, have demolished their faith and hope for the election of Governor Smith as President of these United States, and every MR. JAMES ALEXANDER dement and loss which have to do with soiling will be given a pressing institution to join in on the march of charity with Governor Smith to the White House. JAMES ALEXANDER HEADS COLORED HOSTS A practical demonstration of their faith and the appeal of a broadened man like Governor Smith to the Presidency. Mr James A Alexander, pioneer citizen and old line Republican and forceful citizen has been designated a Director General for the branch of work which has to do with the Colored vote in Southern California. Mr Alexander was for years a Federal Office Holder and made an enviable record in the service. He was the founder and ruling force of the Afro-American Council, which cut such a old swath some years back and while constitution was worn while it continued for the group during its existence. Of late years Mr Alexander has been engaged in the Realty business and was connected as cornerstone of a local newspaper for quite a time. He has been a life long Republican and supported President Coolidge four years ago. SMITH FORCES IN ACTION The Smith forces are not idling on the job, they are striking right out and forcing the issue. As aforesaid with Alexander as Director in Chief they have opened up Women's Headquarters at the Hotel Somerville, with Miss. Theodora Jones in charge; General Headquarters at 33th and Central Ave., and at 19th St. in South Los Angeles. Thus far the Republicans, in so far as the group is concerned have made no move. But now the Democrats having kept the initiative, something will naturally be expected from the G.O.P. Vacationing In North Miss Dessie Barron, one of our star nurses, and her sister, Mrs Winona Mattinis, with their cousin, Miss Elizabeth Bowle left last Saturday on the H.F. Alexander for a two week stay in the northern part of the state. While there, they will visit with their father and uncle, Mr. J. Barron, who resides in Oakland HENRY STARR "THE RED HOT SPOT OF RADIOLAND" with a wonderful message and a barrel of fun for "HIS OWN FOLKS" Tune in on K. M. T. R. from 7:15 to 8:00 FRIDAY EVENING (Tonight) CALIFORNIA EAGLE Captain Williams Given Military Funeral At Pasadena, California Military funeral rites were held today at the First African M. E. Church, Pasadena, for Captain Walter R. Williams, one of the few Negro officers of his rank in the A. E. F. who died August 27th at For. Leavenworth Army hospital, Legion members of all races joined in the service. Captain Williams commanded a company in the 307th Negro infantry, Ninety-second division, and was adjutant at Brest, France, for a year. He was a regimental sergeant-major during the Spanish-American war. Mrs. Louise Williams, who resides at 13 Hammond Street, Pasadena, is well known in church, social and club life, and is one of the highly esteemed women in this section. Excitement Reigns at Proposed Jim-Crow Primary School COLORED RESIDENTS OF PALO VERDE VALLEY PROTEST ATTEMPTED SEGREGATION Blythe, Calif., Sept. 5th, 1925 A Citizens Committee has been circulating the petition against the proposed Jim-Crow School among the Colored residents, which petition pledges the parents to a boy-corp of the school where the same is opened. Mr J. C. Alexander refused to sign the papers. The list of loyal parents and their respective children who have signed up to refuse to go to the Jim-Crow School is as follows: Mrs J. E. Ellison, parent, son J. E. Ellison, Jr.; Mr and Mrs. Sam White, parents, sons. Alfect White and James White Mr. and Mrs. McCorkie, parents, son, Samuel McCorkie, Jr and Mary Ann, McCorkie; Bruce Collin, parent, son; M. Gibson, parent; Chris Williams, parent; Thos Bradford, Dr. I. l.parent, daughters. Gertrude Bradford and Lillian E. Bradford, son. Terrell Bradford; Frank Davidson and Mary Davidson, parents, children, Louise Davidson and Walter Davidson and Emma Davidson; Frank Adams, child, Susie Adams; Cunningham, parent, children, Suler, Pasr and Horace Cunningham. Rumor has it that a certain Affidavit has been made involving several preachers and a teacher from Imperial Valley Jim-Crow School in the proposed segregated school plan. This Affidavit has been forwarded to Los Angeles where one of the accused ministers is first being given a chance to present his side of the story before the Affidavit is made public. A local committee of the American Legion (white) has made the public statement that the local legion intends to bring influence to bear upon Governor Young to secure the Jim-Crow School here. Failing in this the local legion means to have the Jim-Crow School law or no law. The Colored citizens of the Palo Verde Valley are looking to the Colored citizens of the State or large for help in their struggle to resist the efforts of segregation on California's eastern border cross which daily treks the southern Jim-Crow herd and their white masters. St. Phillip's Ground Breaking Sunday, September 2nd, at 28th and Paloma, a large crowd gathered to witness a ground breaking ceremonies of the St. Phillips Episcopal Church.

WILLIAMS Chicago, Illinois Re-elected Moderator National Baptist Convention Smith-For-President Club Organized Miss Theodora Jones has organized a political club to boost Governor Smith for president. This club of young professional and society women is at this moment answering the cry of 15,000,000 Black Americans, our own race who are getting tired of existing for the government, and want a government in this great commonwealth to exist for the American people. These young women know that Gov Smith is an American with American ideas of government, has been in American Municipal and Governmental affairs for a quarter of a century, understands American citizens, black and white, death justice to 9,000,000 in one state as Governor four terms; an American that served his apprenticeship in American government affairs by climbing the ladder of executive ship from bottom to top. That has made him a "Servant of the people" and is proclaimed by political critics, black and white to be the greatest and most just executive that has ever been known. Governor Smith made it possible for black and white American women to have equal rights in politics and industry. Every woman owes to herself and daughter to come to vote for Smith. The Misses Ruth, Naomi Wright, Vivian Jones, Virginia Earl and Theodora Jones are just a few of the modern youths that are not taking everything for granted; but are basing their foundation on facts as American citizens of a progressive race, and intend to carry Los Angeles and vicinities by an overwhelming vote for Smith. Everybody is invited to visit this club at all times and to become a member to help destroy the walls of deceit and fraud that is retarding the Negro's steps upward in progress. This political club is known as Smith-For-President, Club, headquarters new Somerville Hotel, whole Mezannine Floor, hours 9 A. M. to 9 P. M. No membership fee is charged for members. Men and women are welcome. Adv. KEEP OFF THE DATE, October 5th, Five and Over Charity Club Ball, Municipal Auditorium, Santa Monica 8-31-1 Pullman Trick Exposed Brotherhood Organizer Secures minutes of Pullman Company Meeting to destroy Brotherhood Porters' Union. Writes Open Letter To Pullman Official. Kansas City, Mo. August 24, 1928 A copy of the minutes of a meeting held by the Pullman Company, Los Angeles district July 25, 1928, under the assists of the so-called "Good Will Committee" was mailed to the office of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters Room 208 Lincoln Bldg by some unknown person. It describes in detail how two porters had worked out a scheme with Pullman officials to destroy the Brotherhood by means of a "Yellow Dog Contract" which when signed under duress by the porters of the district would have the appearance that the porters themselves were turning in their union cards and petitioning to the company for a wage conference under the Company Union (Employee Representation Plan). According to the minutes, some of the porters whose names are mentioned on the committee were pulled off their runs presumably with the usual loss of pay in order that a qurum or more would make up the committee, but it also shows that despite severe rebuke of Mr. F. L. Wood Assistant General Manager, some of those present made frank statements that they would not permit themselves to be used as traitors to the brotherhood and the race. The following persons represented the committee: Mr. F. L. Wood Assistant General Manager for the Pullman Company, Mr. J. L. Author formerly superintendent of Kansas City district, Mr. J. Prayer, Chairman, and Messrs. J. T. Ambrose, M. B. Brazley, C. H. Levy, W. B. Holland, S. H. Burnett, J. H. Eldridge, H. O. Phillips, A. Noel, J. H. Hill, M. E. Jackson. The Yellow Dog Contract which was to be sent east to be signed by all the porters in the various districts did not get any farther than San Francisco where it is said only 113 names appeared on it. Ashley L. Totten Assistant General Organizer an ex-Pullman Porter, represented the porters on the Plan O Employee Representation and also national delegate to the wage conference of 1924, has sent an open letter to Mr. F. L. Wood Assistant General Manager of the Pullman Company responding to his attack on the brotherhood and challenging him for a debate on the Plan controversy. Mr. REV. W. H.

THE ROBBERY JINX STILL PURSUES THE ROBBERY JINX STILL PURSUES Baumann's No. 1 Drug Store next door to the Eagle office, has, for the short time been prey to burglars. The robbery has discovered an opening he store for business Monday morning. Police were notified, thus far a clue has been obtained which would lead to the apprehension of the criminals who perpetrated the deed. Mr. Alex Woods and family have returned to their home in San Antonio, Texas, after spending two weeks visiting in Southern California. During their stay in Los Angeles they were the house guests of Mr. J. H. Edmonds at his bachelor apartments in East Vernon Street. Mr. Woods is a postal clerk in the post office of San Antonio and also prominent in fraternal circles. Little Miss Woods writes back from the alamo city that she will come again soon. Totten was fired when he tried to make the Plan fundion in the interest of the employees. We publish below the address of Mr. P. L. Wood, and the letter of Mr. Totten. Representative porters of the Los Angeles district and you are all of that, everyone of you come in contact with you very often on the trains and as far as my observation goes, I find that I never have any fault to find with any of these porters who operate out of this district, especially towards San Francisco, on any of the trains they are running. When Mr. Arthur called me the other day and told me of this movement, which had been presented to him by Porter M. E. Jackson and asked if I could arrange to meet this committee. I was very much pleased and told him I would be in Los Angeles yesterday. so I dictated a note to the stenographer (not having time to go to the office before it closed) asking if he would be able to get the men together here today—if necessarily holding them out of the service, because I felt that we could not accomplish a great deal if some of the porters were (Continued, on page 6) A drunk with sight or power we lose Wild tongues that have not thee in awe. Such boastings as the Gentiles use. Or lesser breeds - without the law. Lord God of Hosts, he with us yet Lest we forget - we forget. -TULLE. It is said, that on an occasion when Jesus was in attendance at a wedding feast, there were those who came to Him saying, "Thy mother is without and desiree to see thee," and Jesus turned upon them and asked, "Who is my mother?" Truly in them who heard his question must have wondered where he spoke, but before they could further question Him, He said, "Those who connive will the same are my mother and my brothers." Very often we heard persons as being underworld characters without searching the encyclopedia of common sense as to what they answer the definition of underworld character or not, for we too should stop long enough to ask who are they of the underworld and who of the upper world, and while we ponder and wait, mettinks I hear this answer coming up from the hushed corner of silent suffering: "We are of the underworld because we have lost all sense of shame, have debauched not only our own bodies, and souls, but have cheerfully seduced others to do as we have done. Beware of us for we are everywhere. You look for us in the gutter, but of ten we are found in he King's Palace, the balls of fame, polite society and even in the church news—so again we say beware! for we seek to destroy you!" --- The Democratic Party The political pendulum as far as people of color are concerned, is taking a peculiar turn at this time. Never before, at least within the past twenty years, have the Negro people of California been so dissatisfied with the outlook. The old attitude of mind about the Negro "cannot afford to be anything but a Republican," no longer exists. The Negroes are on the whole intelligent and progressive, and unless the Republican Party, with its past history and tradition, offers something more than point to the fact that this the Republican Party, was the party of Lincoln and Roosevelt, there is going to be not a little ranks deserting among Negro people. Except for a few old time Republicans who will always be satisfied to sit in the corner of their own contentment and gloot over the fact that they are and have always been Lincoln Republicans, the thinking Negroes in the country, and especially in California, who for more than a half century have been loyal to the party, are wanting to ask these questions: "What about Party treatment to us and why is the dear old Party sending Perry Howard or at least permitting him to go to prison when as a matter of fact, if he did commit the acts charged up to him, he was taking orders?" And, in the State of California, there must be some renovating. The steady march of educational segregation must be halted where it is. Residential restrictions must be limited to other than color of skin, and Negro Americans must be granted equal opportunity to solve their economic problem or if makers not how big a bowl is sent up about Simth being wet, unless these evils are remedied. I'm afraid that most of the Negroes will, in the coming election, wrap themselves in Smith's wet blanket. IN addressing a person, either a lady or gentleman, don't lay hands on them—it is the tone of voice or flash of eye that makes the lasting impression, and not the laying on of hands. In fact the average woman even though she is in public life, regards the man who resorts to such in conversation as being common. "Greensboro, N. C., Sept. 9.—A $75,000 modern administration building for Immunel Lutheran College has been planned, it was learned this week. The building was decided upon by the delegates to the annual convention of the Lutheran Synodical Conference, which met recently in Omaha, Nebr." Los Angeles is looking forward to a most modern and beautiful Episcopal Church which will mean the culmination of Father Cleghorn's efforts. 1 Almost every week we see an announcement in some Negro Journal of the failure of some prominent business among Negroes. While business failures are not unusual among any group, we do feel that the percentage of failures among our group is by far too large. As there is never an effect without a cause, we feel bad, also the many business failures. The important thing therefore is to remove the cause, and thus remedy the effect. There is no justifiable reason why Negroes cannot be as as successful in business as those of any other group. Of course various excuses are offered. Some say that Negroes will not trade with each other, or if they do will not pay their bills or that they do not believe that the same articles sold by Negroes are as good as those sold by other people. While we do not believe that these causes are real, yet they may form a basis for a serious discussion of some of our business problems. First, too many Negroes go into business without any business training. In this day of keen competition there is much more to doing business than merrier buying and selling. Business today must be studied from many angles. Every business should establish a reserve fund or have credit at the bank, so that money can be had when needed to carry on the business. A careful study of profits and losses should be made so as to not endanger its success. Advertising and the study of salesmanship, and many other things go with a successful business today. These things so necessary to business success today are rarely thought of say nothing of being made a study of by the average Negro business man. Courteous treatment of customers is another asset in business. Large and successful business firms regard courtesy as representing approximately 25 per cent of their success, and require their help to take the attitude that the public is always right and if anybody is to suffer embarrassment for mistakes it is the concern and not the customer. Knowing this to be true it is almost inconceivable that some of our business people seem to think that we should be spoken to roughly and sometimes almost insulted in their places of business and still continue to spend our money with them and feel that it is an honor to do so. The Japanese who line our streets with many successful businesses should teach us a lesson in this respect. Some of them are not able to speak the English Language but they know how to smile and take our money. Even those who have privileges against us forget their prejudices when dollars begin to speak. There is also a disposition among our business people to charge a few cents more for an article that can be bought elsewhere for a few cents less and expect us to pay the difference just because we are colored. We should remember that people today should not be expected to buy color, but goods and pay only the market price, and tidy sooner we can learn that small profits with a quick turnover is far better than adding a few cents to the price of our goods in order to make large profits, the better it will be for both seller and buyer. Another cause of many failures is that profits of the business are often spent for luxuries instead of being put aside as a reserve fund. Every business has its reverses and must have a reserve fund to tide it over the dull season. It is the height of folly for us to take the profits from our business and spend it for fine automobiles, entertaining, and etc., and when the first slump comes we must close our doors and go out seeking a job, and thus become the laughing stock of the community. We should remember that there are some sacrifices to be made in business in order to succeed, as well as in other lines, and if we begin to spend the profits of the business as fast as they are made we are sure to fail some time, and too often we have other people's money invested in the business and we have the double responsibility of safeguarding their interest as well as our own ten other people have confidence in us and put their money into our business enterprises we should not abuse this confidence by reckless spending and indifference. This thing has been done so much that we find it difficult today to get our people to invest money in any business that is conducted by men of the race, because in many instances their confidence has been abused. When we as people can learn that our success in business depends on our doing business on business principles, rather than on our own pride, or because we are colored, we will be far on the road to business success. CITIZENS COUNCIL AND INDUSTRIAL LEAGUE HOLDS LABOR DAY MEETING The Citizens' Council and Industrial League held a special Labor Day meeting, at Grant Chapel A. M. E. Church, Monday night, Sept. 3rd.

ALSTON THANKS HIS FRIENDS FOR THE HONORABLE VOTE RECEIVED TO MY MANY LOYAL FRIENDS: It is impossible for me to see you all and tell you just how much I appreciate the loyal stand taken by you and the public on Tuesday in general in my behalf in the recent primary election held on Tuesday, Aug. 28th. The large vote received by me was far beyond the expectation of the Big Political Bosses, the Big Political paid grafters of the East Side, the City Machine and the Invisible Government, the Committee of Ten thousand, and others who had passed the word to get ALSTON. Thank God for the many true and loyal race loving women and Men of this community, who money can't buy, and who stand for a principle. I tell you, the bunch was kept on the anxious seat for all day Tuesday and Wednesday, when the returns came in showing that I was leading in the count, some of them had to be taken to a Doctor, because they were frightened nearly to death, as big money had been spent to buy the ALSTON. My friends I were carried every east of San Pedro Street, to Alemaeda Street, and from Washington street to Fiftelfth Street, except four, and I had twice as many votes than any of the other candidates running in those presidents. And this I consider the biggest victory that a man could desire, not one paid worker, and all that I received was from the loyal citizens of my District. I am indeed proud that my record in your community for more than ten years has merited the confidence and esteem that you seem to have placed in me. May I state here that my record in the future shall be none the less, and as one of the candidates said of me in his circular "ALSTON Is Clean, Honeset and Admirable etc., for which thank you so much. I hope you will live life, here as I have o ever live that life, here as I have tried to live elsewhere, so that no man can say, and truthfully say that I am any thing else except "Clean, Honest, etc." The votes I do not care to take it to myself, but credit to the citizens The FIGHT IS NOT OVER, BUT JUST BEGIN: YOU WILL HEAR FROM ME AGAIN.

Mr. Geo Watts E. 4th street, who has been vacationing is back again on the job, and says he certainly enjoyed his various trips to Catalina Island, and cities surrounding Los Angeles. --- Mrs. Isabelle Clifton of E. 31s St. and the Misses Marian Hendricks of W. 35th Pl. and LnLah Bartre of E. 22nd street are on the sick list this week, but by this time next week we hope to see them up and about again. We're awfully sorry, Mr. Harold Ector, that very genial member of the Lone Wolf, is "all by himself," but I guess it won't be long now. Sometimes Harold jekks soda at the Corzx Corner where the gang hangs out. Not long ago we wrote that Miss LaVera White had left for the Ease on a vacation trip, but it seems that LaVera's trip ended right here in little old L. A., and she's still driving her Whippet about town, and is seen quite often at the different studios out Hollywood way. Well, as we don't seem to feel very much cooler, guess we'll better close up and call it a day. Oh, we forgot. In making an exam the other day, a graduate of one of our city schools in making out a questionnaire answered some of the questions like this: Born? Yes; Place? Hospital; Parents? Yes; Ambition? to be able to clog dance; Kind of work desired? Anything with not much too, work attached.

JESUS THE DOOR JESUS THE DOOR "Verily, verily I say unto you he that entereth not by the door into the sheep fold, but climbbeth up some other way the same is a thief and a robber."—John 10:1. We have been warned all through God's blessed word how that in the last days false prophets and teachers would come to deceive. God's people, Our blessed Saviour is the only way to everlasting life and to salvation of the soul. He is a Good Shepherd and not a bribling. "He careth for his sheep, therefore warns them of the dangers of false teachers and will even give his life in defense of our lives and liberty in him. He calls the deceiver the thief. John 10:10 "The thief cometh but for to steal and to kill and to destroy. I am come that they might have life and that they might have it more abundantly." We realize when a thief attempts to enter into your home to steal, he is not hold enough to come to the door but he sneaks, he seeks some other entrance than the door; we often or read of them climbing up some other way than the door, because their intentions are to steal, therefore they sneak and hide to deceive. So it is with every one that comes to you with any of their theory of Salvation. Happiness, peace and life—these are obtained only through the Blood of Jesus Christ that was shed on Calvary for you and for me, and through Him only can we be saved. John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that he gave His only Bigotten Son that whosoever believed in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." John 3:17—"He came not into the world to condemn the world but that the world through Him might be saved." If we are asked the question, "Saved from what?" We answer: "Their Sins." Timothy 2:14—"And Adam was not deceived but the woman being deceived was in the transgression." 1st John 1:8, 9—if we say we have no sins, we deceived ourselves and the truth is not in us if we confess our sins. He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Roman 3:23—For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God, being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in christ Jesus." Now, according to the word of God, we cannot say we were always good nor were our ancestors or forepursons—all have sinned. When God created man and put him in the Garden of Eden, which was paradise, he made him perfect, upright and holy in His own image. Genesis 1:26 "And God said, let us make man in our own image after our own likeness." But after he made woman for his help meet, the serpent begged her and she begged Adam. They both sinned and were put out of Eden. Genesis 3: Therefore, the Lord God sent him forth from the Garden of Eden. Mei then were guilty and conscious of sin. Genesis 6:6 "And it repented the Lord that he made man on the earth. God destroyed the earth by a flood saving Noah who was a just man who walked with God—Genesis 6:9. God saved Noah, his wife and his three sons—Genesis 6:18. Shem, Ham and Japhet, the earth and again multiplied, replenished. The people were again subject to sl. Then law was established for man. Law was given to Adam, Genesis 2:16, 17, to Noah, Genesis 9:6, to the Israelites, Ex. 20:7, through Moses, Exodus 31:18 and John 7:18, through the ministration of Angels. The law was then given by Moses to the children of Israel, made 'sacrifices and gave offerings. They were given a law but could not make them perfect. Heb. 9:7—But into the second went the high priest alone every year, not without out blood which he offered for himself and for the errors of the people, the Holy Ghost this signifying that the way in the holest of all was not yet made manifest while as yet the first tabernacle was yet standing, which was a figure for the time then present in which were offered both gift and sacrifice, that could not make him that did the service perfect as pertaining to the conscious. Heb. 9:11—"But Christ being come and high priest of good things to come by a greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands—neither by the Blood of goats and calves but by his own Blood. He entered once into the holy place, having obtained eternal re demption for us. The blood of the bulls and of lambs and the ashes of heifers were only a type of the blood of Jesus Christ, the lamb of God that was to be offered for our sins. That fountain spoken of by Secharian the prophet Zec. 13:1—"In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Serusselm for sin and for unclean-ness. Now, dear friends, if Jesus is the way and we know he is the God of the universe. We realize we do not have to go even out of our door to receive him. Roman 10:6, 7, 8, 9—"But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise; Say not in thine heart who shall ascend into Heaven that is to bring Christ down from above, or who shall descend into the deep, that is to bring up Christ from the dead, but what sayeth it, the word is nigh thee even in thy mouth and in thy heart that is the word of faith, which we preach that if thou shall confess with their mouth the Lord Jesus and shall believe in thine heart that God has raised him from the dead thou shalt be saved. In Ez. 18:4—"All souls are mine—the soul that sinneth shall die." Now we realize that God is no respecter of persons or place. Acts 10:34, 35—God told the Apostle Peter of Japa to say to Cornelius of Chesarea, concerning other nations—I perceive that God is no respecter of persons, but in every nation he that feareth him and worketh righteousness is accepted with him—read Acts 15:9. Roman 2:11—for, there is no respect of persons with God, for as many as have sinned with the law shall be judged by the law. Truly we are living in the last days when we read the 24th chapter of Matthew, we can readily realize that we are living in the last days and the fulfillment of the great calamities. The fifth verse also tells us of the deceivers, coming in his name saying I am the Christ and shall deceive many. Dear readers, let me urge you to love God, fear God and worship him. As Jesus said to the woman of Samaria, St. John 4:21—"Woman believe me, the hour cometh when ye shall neither in this mountain nor yet in Jerusalem worship the father, 24th verse: "God is spirit and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. Now, if we expect to receive the kingdom, we surely ought to know what it is. Roman 14:17—For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Ghost. When the Apostles asked Jesus just before his ascension—Acts 1, latter part of 6th verse: "Lord and wilt thou at this time restore again to Israel the kingdom? He said: "it is not for you to know the time or the seasons which the father has put in his own power, but ye shall receive power after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you—when we receive this spirit of God, then we are in the Highway that '萨iah speaks of—Israel 35:8 and a highway shall be there and a way, and it shall be called the way of holiness. No unclean shall pass over it, but it shall be for those the way-faring, though fools, shall not err there. No Lion shall be there, nor any ravenous beast shall go up there, it shall not be found there but the redeemed shall walk there. Dear readers, God is spirit, Matt. 4:24 and does not any more deal with flesh—Roman 8:11 for as many as are led by the spirit of God they are the sons of God. Roman 8:17—If children then heirs, heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ. If so, be that we suger with him, we shall reign with him. We are no more the children of the flesh, Roman 8:1—there is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus who walk not after the flesh but after the spirit. 1st Corinthians 15:22—For as in Adam all die even so in Christ shall all be made alive. P. S.—The Lord is not slack concerning his promise as some count slackness, but is long suffering to us ward, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance, but the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent beat and the earth also, and the works that are therein shall be burned up. 13 verse — Nevertheless we, according to his promise look for new heavens an a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. 2 Peter 3: 5, 10, 13.

THE CHILDREN Chest and Red Cross Solving Problem of Books for Blind The blind of Los Angeles and vicinity need books to read! Plunged into total darkness, and with Braille books costing ten times as much as those sighted persons read and being twenty times as volminous the blind have a problem—and the Community Chest, through the Red Cross, is beginn! to solve it. This year the Los Angeles branch of the American Red Cross received $104,737.25 to perform its wide range of humane work; and nearly all this amount or $89,547.50 to be exact, came from the Community Chest, of which it is an agency. And some of this money is being spent to make life a little happier for those who will go to their graves without even having seen a child, a tree, or the sun or moon, cr the circle of the stars. The blind as a class are poor, and the cheapest edition of the complete King James version of the Bible, for instance, is in 21 enormous volumes, and costs $98. Neither Homer, Shakespeare, Dante, Cervantes Goethe, Balzac, Dickens, nor Dostelovsky have been transcribed into Braille. Those who must read by fingering embossed symbols that telegraph ideas and images into their consciousness, have been left in the dark without the great thoughts of great Literature. For very few have friends who will read aloud to them. The Red Cross is beginning to solve, on a national scale, the problem of getting good books cheaply for the blind, through employing what is known as the Garin process of duplication, and getting volunteer workers to transcribe printed books into Braille without, receiving, salaries. This has cut down the production cost of books immensely and it is hoped to soon turn out volumes at one dollar instead of five dollars a piece. HOME COMING DAY AT CONGRE- GATIONAL CHURCH Following the vacation period, home-coming day will be observed at the Lincoln Memorial Congregational Church. Corner of Vernon and Hooper Avenues, this Sunday, Sept. 9th. The pastor, Rev. E. Lighter, will fill the milpit at both hours. Morning Subject: "The Secret of a Life of Power."

Sunday morning at eleven o'clock Miss Laverne Martin, A. B., will speak. This young woman is one of the outstanding graduates of the University of Southern California. She has spent the last two years since her graduation teaching in the city of St Louis, Missouri. She is at this time assistant principal of Vashon High School of St. Louis. Sunday evening at eight o'clock, Miss Ethelwyn Mills will speak. Miss Mills is the daughter of Rev. Fay Mills a famous abolitionist of his day in Boston, Mass, which gives her a fine historical setting. She is also a peace propropagandist and a follower of Jane Adams of Hull House; secretary of the local Fellowship of Reconciliation League which is international in its scope for world peace. During the recent Annual Conference of the N. A. A. C. P. held in this city she was one of the speakers. This information might be of interest to members and friends of the N. A. A. C. P. branch. We urge you to avail yourself of the opportunity to hear these speakers. In the last issue of the Eagle was an article concerning me, written by Mrs. Floy Mae Johnson Coffey. Just why Mrs. Johnson Coffey would manifest such an interest in me, as to try to inform the public as to what I know and what I do not know is more than I can understand. I am sure no one would inconvenience themselves by going to her for a recommendation, as all who know me can say that my work is proof for itself, and it will stand the test. One cannot climb to the top of the ladder to fame and success by attempting to pull the other fellow down. We speak of Ethiopia stretching forth her hands. As long as jealousy and envy reign supreme and the spirit of "I will pull the other person down while I reach the top"—predominates, the Negro will climb no higher than he is. Can we wonder at the other race knocking us when we knock ourselves? I answer in the negative. I have not only studied at the Kimkel Conservatory as Mrs. Coffey has stated in the negative at different times and to different ones, but have had the privilege of being under the supervision of Prof. Gerald Tyler of the Oberlin Conservatory of Music, and also composer of the Prologue for the Missouri Centennial. His name can be found in the public libraries, listed under famous musicians. Successfully I have taught music in the high school at Kissimmee, Ky., and have been very successful in Marion, Indiana. Fitness prevented my acceptance of position as Music Directress in School of St. Louis. Three lessons free will be given in piano to any one wishing to test my ability or to inspect my work. We need not leave the State of California for persons who will witness as to the truth of these statements as the following named persons will glide give information to anyone desiring such: Mrs. Nellie Burr and Mr. Edgar Purr, 1339 E. 41st St., Phone HU, 1473 J. Los Angeles; Mrs. Freddie Pryor and Mrs. G. Pryor, Los Angeles, 1217 S. Alvarado St., Phone BE, 3146; Mr. Frank Strauss, Natl.

Mrs. Flory Mae Johnson Coffey has at different times made the statement that Mrs. Eunna Strauss Francis has never been a student of the Kinkel Conservatory of Music, and that Negro students are not taught there. In justice to myself and Mrs. Francis, I correct the same, as I am a former pupil of the above named conservatory. Any further information desired, I will gladly give. (Signed) MRS.

A GREAT MONTH For three things are we grateful to the month of Septem- ber. They. are Fall, fgotball and oysters. A more papular trio is difficult to imagine and as the good things in life usually come singly we are thrice thankful for the providence of Sep- tember. : There is an axiom that oysters are in season in the eight months of the year having the etter “R” in their names, We are not informed whether there is,an affinity between these months and oysters because the letter “R’ is also in the word oyster or it is just a coincidence. Neither do we know the dis- coverer of the circumstance and the author of the axiom. How- ever, it is neither axiom nor secret that we are-glad September has an “R” somewhere among her nine letters and we are not particular in what style the first oysters are served. To September also are we indebted for a fair autumn. Where the summez is hot and the winter cold there is no season quite so delightful as autumn, It is without the extremes of. temperature, is comfortably warm at day and somniferously cool at night, is an aid to efficient work and an irresistible urge | to recreation. In all it is a season in which to live to the utmost. Thirdly, September hears the first thud of the pigskin and the first shrill blast of the referee’s whistles The nation in Sep- tember turns its eyes away from vacations and basebail to feast them upon the: gridirdii, Reeént development of football in the colleges, universitizs, public schools and - athletic.sclubs has made it a national sport where once it was strictly a college game. When football season opens the whole nation is kin, class barriers erected by education are'dropped and player and spec. tator play the game for all there is in it. Every month of the year’s twelve has something which makes tife worth while but September seems most, bountifully endowed with the “better attractions”.

We all ows sustained earnestness and devotion. The first days of autumn bring back to our cities and towns those earnest people who teach in our schools. The im- pression has prevailed among some that these folks have s somewhat easy time, as the result of a five day week and long summer vacation. . Some teachers without much enthusiasm for their work may slip along irt an easy way. But if they try to do that, their chances for promotion are poor. The great majority of them are hard working folks, who feel their responsibilities quite ieavily, and who carry a burden of anxiety created by the failures and indifference of the more indolent and stupid pupils. The good teacher's work is not ended when the children are dismissed. Then it is necessary to begin on hours of prep- aration for the task that is to come, and many hours must be spent in correcting papers and giving help to backward pupils. ‘The problem of discipline is not solved by any system of rules. The teacher must somehow be able, through some spirit of personal magnetism, to communicate inspiration and ambi- tion to children who naturally are dull, phlegmatic, or mis- chievous, re The good teacher must feel under strain most of the time, as she tries to keep herself alert and smiling, in the effort to secure the:co-operation of all these children, so many.of whom| do not naturally have any desire for learning, It is hard to keep up this high’ level of enthusiasm day after day. It is note to be wondered at that many. teachers get nervous and fatigued through this constant effort. We all owe them much for their, sustained earnestness and devotion. CURBING -THE DISHONEST TWO | Credit men have a good word to say for the honesty of Americans, and“nobody is in a better position to know. With credit statistics in their hands from virtually every ¢ity and town in the United’ States, they estimate that only one charge account of every 6,800 is bad and that 98 per cent of the people are honest. *~ This trustworthiness of the public explains why 70. per cent of all retail business in the larger cities can be done through charge accounts with:safety to the merchant. ‘The mere fact that so mich businésillg-transacted on the credit basis is proof of the acca the great majority ‘of people. . Tt is not to resumed that the dishonest two per cent all prey upbn bifsiriess at the expense of the honest 98 per cent, although itis true that those who do not pay their bills rob these who dos fot the merchartt, since“losses are included in the business overhead.

Since then he has not taken part in any tournaments of note, but made it known this spring he would endeavor to reach the top round of the tennis ladder again this summer. In capturing the 1923 title he won from one of the greatest arrays of tennis players that has ever taken part in a tournament. He defeated Ted Thompson of Wilberforce University and Washington, who won the crown last year, in five gruelling sets in the finals. L. A. GIANTS PLAYING NIPPONS. SUNDAY The Los Angeles Colored Giants played the Taft Baseball Club two games Sunday and Monday, September 2nd and 3rd, and defeated them in both games, the first game played at Taft, with a score of 3 to 4, and the second game in Bakersfield, with a score of 10 to 6. Dunn, star third baseman of the Giants, with a man on base hit a home run, and won the game. Wyndon with a home run in the first inning, the Giants scored two runs. The heavy hitting in the first game was done by Anderson, Wyndon, Bryant and Dunn. Thomas of the Taft team, with a man on base, hit a home run and tied the score in the fifth inning.

Mack House Fights Sailor Jack Lee Mack House Fights Sailor Jack Lee Mack House, famous Coast knockout king enters the ring against one of the best white heavyweights on the Coast, Jack Lee. They fight at the Pasadena Arena and Mack is expecting to be able to continue his string of sensational one-round knockouts. Sailor Jack Lee is one of the best and toughest heavyweights in the game. He fought, Eddie Huffman, Chuck Wiggins and a number of other good top-notchers. If the boy who learned about gloves on the deck of a rolling battleship knows his stuff the California Bear will receive a severe jolt in his sensational career as a knockout king.

All the fans had expected Waters to win, owing to his splendid showing in all his bouts here. The bout was a little one-sided, Waters having the worst of if all the way. At that, he put up a game battle and it was no disgrace to lose against a fighter of Medill's caliber. The knockout was only technical, as Mike's manager, Dutch Myers wisely threw in the towel. GOLF STARS IN NATIONAL TOURNEY GOLF STARS IN NATIONAL TOURNEY Golfers from all over the United States gathered at Stow, Mass., September 1, 2 and 3 for the third annual open golf championship, which was held by the United States Colored Golf Association. This tournament, which was held on the course of the Mapledale Country Club proved quite an attraction. Robert P. Ball, open champion of 1927 was on hand to defend his honors. Such stars as Harry Jackson, John Shipman of Washington, D. C.; Wally Braxton, Gaskins, Philadelphia; George Aaron, James McCoy, Tommy Person of New York; Stout of Newark, N. J., and Porter W. Washington of Mapledale were on hand. among the younger fry. After a few work-outs with Tommy O'Brien he heaves he can beat the "Harp." Can't tell about a boy like Joe. MIKE GREALIS makes a good an nouncer. Hats off to MORRIE COHEN, he is not afraid to mix them. DEAN SNYDER is happy with a new addition to his nine little family. JACK JOHNSON is still boxing Fights this week. JIMMIE SMITH WRITES Brooklyn, N. Y., Aug. 29.—It took our Baby Joe Cans, boxing like a champion against the clever Harry Felix, to save the honor of the Black Race in three boxing events held at Ebbets Field here this evening. There were three mixed bouts of ten-round each on Signor Fugazy's card and Baby Joe came away the only winner. Tiger Jack Payne recently of Australia and Paul Swiderski of Syracuse were matched in the main event and Payne after winning six straight rounds lost to the Pole in the seventh round on a foul. It was a very questionable foul and many thought Payne won by a clean knock-out. GANS KNOCKS OUT FELIX The classic of the evening was the Gans Felix event which went on just before Tiger Payne's losing stand, and just after Wilson Yarbo of Cleveland had lost by a large margin to Willie Feldman a white Fast Slider. Harry Felix is considered one of the cleverest Junior wetterweights in the East and the best they expected of Gans was for him to get the decision. The boys started evenly and gave a very clever exhibition of boxing for four rounds with Gans having the shade because of his landing the harder punches and excelling at fighting. The fifth round however, he began to tell which way the wind was blowing, when Felix began to weaken from Gans left hooks to the head and straight rights to the body and law. Gans gave Felix a good beating in this round and repeated the same dose in the sixth. FELIX ON FLOOR Gans' old lucky round the seventh brought the almost complete undoing of Felix when Gans suddenly floored the clever Easterner with a left hook to the jaw. Felix took the count of nine and weathered out the round when Gans almost fought his own self off his feet trying for a knockout with a haymaker. In the eighty, Gans took up his work more calmly and carefully and again Felix was down from a left hook for another nine count near the end of the round. Gans was about to measure him when the bell rang ending the round. It was suicide to send Felix out for the ninth. Gans soon feinted him into an opening and shot in a one-two left and rights to the jaw and Felix fell flat on his back, both feet in the air and dead to the world. His seconds carried him to his corner and it was not necessary for the referee to count. Gans received a great hand when he left the ring. He came in at 139½ pounds while Felix weighed 142. Since leaving California, Baby Joe Gans has had seven fights. He has won twice by knockouts won four decisions and lost one questionable one. Brooklyn, N. Y., Aug. 29.—Harry Dudley once the prize welterweight of the Pacific Coast and holder of a knockout win over Sammy Baker, was knocked out in forty-three seconds at the Queensborough Athletic Club last night. Dudley took the fight on a few days' notice and was not in condition. Dudley has not boxed for some time previous to this bout. Dudley said before the fight that' if he lost it would not be the end of his boxing days but just a new beginning. Dudley plans to take the money from the fight and go to the country to build up, and come back Dudley of old. Dudley does not believe the bright lights have dimmed the old eyesight past recall nor sapped his vitality to the point that he can't come bock. Syracuse, N. Y., Aug. 27.—Frank Goosby of Bakersville, California and under the management of "Cherokee" Tom Cox, won from Stanley Cooper of Utica, by a knockout before the end of the first round. The white lad tore into Goosby the second the bell rang landing several lefts and rights, but when Goosby sent a right to the head in return, Cooper was forced to sit down and take a count of nine. Arising he ran into more punishment in the shape of rights and lefts until a left hook floored him for keeps.

Neal Clisby Defends Coast Heavy Title KNOCK OUTS GIANT SAM BAKER AT PASADENA "And David took a stone and slung it and smote the Philistine." No, gentle reader, don't get scared; there is no sermon coming just a Bible quotation of the half-round battle between the little shepherd boy David and the great Philistine giant with sword, spear, shield and full suit of armor named Goliath. For that is just what happened last Thursday night at Morrie Cohen, Pasadena arena when Neal Clisby, 195 and Sam Baker, 235 cama together for one hectic minute and a half fuller of thrills than many ten-round battles. And it was a whale of a war while it lasted. Towering above his smaller opponent Baker rushed like a human army tank, great arms flying and landing some hefty smashes on the rapidly moving "Thunderbolt." He crowded Clisby to the ropes; Clisby bounced back and dropped him with a right, right up and back for more; they met like battering rams and down went Clisby. Up again and down went Sam, tripping Neal as he went so both were on the floor at once. Stepping swiftly around Baker on rising Neal shot his deadly right A familiar sight about 6 o'clock every morning out in the Baldwin Hills is a big notice dog running with a number of boxers who do their road work there in training for their right-hand. He accompanies his master Leroy Kinney and his friend and stablemate Al Drisden. He is a highly pedigree animal of the German breed and very intelligent. So interested is he in what he seems to consider a daily recevita that when one of the other runners start to pass Kinney, he promptly gives him a quick jerk usually throwing him headlong and allowing his master to retain his lead. The big dog whose name is "Bob" also springs and side-steps around the gymnasium in imitation of the boxers while they are doing their shadow boxing. acrosgs and right through the ropes fell Baker on his back. Mike Grealis applied the smelling salts long after the referee had finished toiling the fetal 10 and half the customers had gone before Sam woke Neal's next opponent will probably be George Godfrey. For the first time in Coast pugilistic history a number of champions and near champions will box for the benefit of needy colored kiddies. A monster open air boxing show being staged at White Sox Park by Harry Levette for the Urban League Fresh Air Fund will see a larger collection of famous pugilists than is usually possible on the same bill. Levette, Sports Editor of the California Eagle, has instituted a benefit show which is to be annual, similar to the Milk Fund bouts in New York, the proceeds to go towards the 10-day summer camp held each year for 100 needy children and mothers by Mrs. Catherine Barr, secretary of the local Urban League. The show is being held on Sept. 10th consisting of a series of three-round bouts: Ace Hudkins, Hert Colima, Neal Cisby, John Lester, Johnson, Santiago Zorilla, Young Nationalista, Sailor Kosky, Charley Pinto, Mack House, Willie Henry, Herbie Turech, Tiger Joe Rivers, Young Joe Jeanette, and Young Franklin are some of those appearing for this worthy cause. Bill Montana will wrestle and Lew Cody, the famous actor, will act as master of ceremonies. Amusement DANCES - CO LOS ANGELES, CALIF., FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 7 LOS ANGELES, CALIF., FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1928 Although perhaps through the natural modesty of the boy who has had such a remarkable ring career and is adding to his lausaues around New York, Baby Joe Gans has never before been revealed in a newspaper article as one of Los Angeles' largest property owners, it has been revealed that he is undoubtedly better possessed of this world's goods than any other colored boxer in the West and surpassing the majority of the whites Contrary to the general procedure followed by pugilists of squandering their money in an "easy come, easy go" manner Baby Joe has salted most of the $100,000 he has earned since stepping out into the public limelight. With the past two years averaging $11,000 houses he made over $50,000 and with the good money he has made in the East added to the many small purses he used to get at Passadena, San Diego, the Main St. and other small clubs, when just climbing, it has totalled a nifty sum. "Put your money in dirt," the Young Master tells other fighters, whom he considers will apreciate advice. "You can't fight but a few years at best," he says PLASTERS HIS OWN HOUSES Following his own advice, "Babe" buys property at bargains' then does most of his own work of plastering, cementing, roofing and carpentering in his spare house, even when training for fights.

It was a non-title bout as both men came in overweight. Carter is the boy that has been giving all the top notchers a fit in the north. Baby Sal Sarls has been offered a bout with Wild Cat at Portland. out with wind cat at Fortran. If the bolt goes through Sal will be meeting the toughest boy, barring Joey Sangor he has ever faced. On comparing the records of the two boys, we give the Seattle Flash an edge. Beyond a doubt Sal hits the hardest, but Carter is one of those boys that moves all the time, shooting out a bothersome left to offset a hard right hand puncher. Baby Sal wants a championship bout with Morgan but he won't get it because Santiago Zorrilla is going to him like a hot minute when they meet some time this month. Last Thursday night Jimmy Black the Gate Cyclone fought Young Farrell to a stand still at San Bernardino in the eight round top spot to earn only a draw. For five rounds Black beat Farrell to death. In the last three Farrell put up a wonderful light to catch the referee's eye for a draw. The boys made such a hit the matchmaker hooked them, for this Thursday night, and as we go to press Jimmy crowds through the ropes to the verdict this time, with no room for doubt. If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened 5. BECAUSE the Company offers 8% per year on your investment and you are, at the same time, part owner of the ground, building and equipment. 6. BECAUSE the Hotel Somerville is a monument to the efforts of the Colored people. One of which every person can speak with pride—an asset to every Colored landowner and a credit to the community. 7. BECAUSE the Hotel will encourage business people of the race to visit Los Angeles, spend their money here and later to return to enrich our community by establishing business enterprises. 8. BECAUSE it is our desire to have the Hotel owned and financed outright by the race. Mr. S. P. Johnson Mrs. J. M. Scott Mrs. Bertha Turner Mr. T. C. Clairette Mrs.Vada J. Somerville AND REVIEWS BIG ZACK WILLIAMS RETURNS TO SCREEN ZACK WILLIAMS, one of the most prominent, and real leaders among Colored screen artists, returns to the screen.

He has a small, but im- portant part in 'The Showboat' one of Universal Jewel Productions. SOMETHING BIG BREWING OUT AT WM. FOX STUDIO Yes, beyond a doubt, there is something big brewing out at the Fox Studio, or else so many people would not be sent out for interviews and screen tests. Among the many who were sent out for interviews were: Elly Reynolds, Harry Tracy, Spencer Bell Raymond Turner, Sam Baker and several young ladies. It appears that some of these places were not filled even after so many were cast by Central. The latest two to be sent out should make the 'grade', Zack Williams and Hazel Jones.

He is greatly devoted to his two children and his wife, and can be found at any time playing ball with them in the street in front of his home.

THE COMMENTATOR LINCOLN' THEATRE "KICK IN" MELODRAMA OF GANGSTER LIFE PLEASES Something with a "Kick In" it, a a brill that causes one to gasp, all that's in the latest play at the Lincoln Theatre. Evelyn Preer, leading lady, was better in this role than that of Sadie Thompson last week. Edward Thompson, around whom the title was written, came through with flying colors. Sidney Kirkpatrick as the commissioner of police was good as expected. Much noise was made over the way Lawrence Criner performed. Laura Bowman was again and again given prominent mention for her interpretation of a genuine Irish mother from the Bowery. Bebe Townsend, as the daughter of the "old lady," gave valuable assistance toward invoking humor into the play. Cleo Desmond walked off with the cake. In fact, all of the roles were good and many believe this show better than last week. Standing out night after night, large numbers of out-of-town people come here from long distances to watch these famous people perform.

"Here Comes the Bride" which is guaranteed to contain more genuine humor than any play of many seasons past, will open at the Lincoln Theater Friday night, giving Los Angeles theater goers their first opportunity to see the LaFayette Players in a comedy vehicle. When "Here Comes the Bride" was first, presents at the George M. Cohen Theater in New York several seasons ago with Francine Larrimore in the leading feminine role it was acclaimed as the funniest comedy to which Broadway had been treated in years. Evelyn Preer who siored such a hit in "Rain" and "Kick In" at the Lincoln Theater, will play the role originally created by Miss Larrimore. This plot of this fast moving farce concerns the fortunes and misfortunes of a young New York lawyer who suddenly finds himself impoverished and separated from the girl he loves, in a very few moments. The "girl he loves" happens to be a very beautiful young heless and her father is un willing for her to marry a poor man so he promptly separates the lovers. It is at this point that the action of "Here Comes the Bride" takes a surprise turn, for the poor young lawyer is offered $10,000 providing he will lead a "weiled bride" to the altar and not seek her identity until after the marriage ceremony has been performed. There is not a dull moment throughout the play and an abundance of farcical situations, coupled with clever lines, make the production one that is long remembered after the final curtain. The cast of "Here Comes the Bride" will include, in addition to Evelyn Preer, such favorites as Edward Thompson, Lawrence Criner, Sidney Kinkpatrick, Bebe Townsend, Laura Bowman, Charles Olden, Cleo Desmond, Arthur Ray and others. Following "Here Comes the Brid" the Lafayette Players will be seen in a series of other New York hits. Cusick Hugs the Darker Brother to a 10- Round Draw Willie Henry.
