Famous Automobile Manufacturing Company to Decale Stock Dividend of $48,000,000, in Which Employees Made Up of All Races Will Receive Proportionate Share.
CREDIT TO HENRY FORD.
Founder of the Company and Largest Stockholder, Believes in Co-Operation of Customers and Employes and Profit Sharing.
(Special to The Chicago Defender.)
Detroit Mich. June 11—The capital stock of the Ford Motor Company today was increased by the directors from $2,000,000 to $100,000,000 and a stock dividend will be declared payable in July, of $18,000,000, thus bringing the issued capital stock up to $50,000,000. The remaining $50,000,000 will be reserved for future developments and payments of dividends as conditions demand.
The Ford company has declared a large cash dividend, but the amount could not be learned. Last year the distribution was $10,000,000, or 500 per cent on the old capitalization of $2,000,000.
Sharing in this dividend are several Afro-American employees of the company. Unlike the Palman Company and other large corporations, Mr. Henry Ford, the founder of the company and the largest stockholder, bees in equal rights for all races, and great success is due to this fact.

FRANCE'S FAMOUS AFRICAN SHARPSHOOTERS
NINTH CAVALRY TO
GO TO PHILIPPINES.
Rumored That Secretary Garrison is to Make Some Changes in Stations —Company G Has Fine Shooting Record.
(Special to the Chicago Defender.)
Douglas, Ariz. June 11—According to a Washington dispatch, Secretary Garrison is arranging to change three regiments in the Philippines before October 1st. The Seventh and Eighth regiments of cavalry and the Twenty-fourth infantry will be replaced by the Ninth Cavalry, now in Arizona and the Fifteenth cavalry and the Twenty-seventh infantry in Texas. The Ninth Cavalry will be installed here ever since September, 1912, and the soldiers as well as the people have come to look upon the regiment as a permanent institution. The relations of the Ninth, in regard to both officers and privates have been uniformly pleasant and it will be a matter of regret with the general public to learn that the regiment will leave here. Doubless of the other cavalry regiments will come to Douglas as soon as it lands in San Francisco. The regiment will be lost or earlier, in order to be in the island by October 1st. * Sergent Willis has been placed upon the retired Jst.
The regiment has just completed their target season, and Captain L. C. Andrews easily led the whole regiment with his troops for the most qualified shooters, having four experts and six sharpshooters, thirty-seven markmen, ten first-class and eleven second class. This is a remarkable achievement for the great grants Cooper, Franklin, Davis and Corporal White finished at the head in the regiment. It can be said that there is some class to Company G.
There was a ball given in the army dancing pavilion on Thursday night given by troop G. • Mrs Alma G. • Mrs Milie Miles away people every night at the Starland, and it can be said that this is the best musical treat in the town.

Paris, France, June 11.—Long lists of names of France's African troops have been sent in during the last two weeks with recommendations for decorations for bravery on the field of battle and for excellence in marksmanship. The lists contain many cases of individual heroism unequaled in the field and the Board of Awards has held them in high regard. The African troops are taking the most active part in every conflict. From the beginning of the war these famous fighters have been the foundation of every successful battle. The most famous picture are standing outside of headquarters awaiting decoration for excellence as sharpshooter.
FAITHFUL REPUBLICANS
Afro-Americans Receive Fair Measure of Patronage from Present Administration.
(Special to the Chicago Defender.)
Cleveland, O. June 11—Northern Ohio thus far has fared fairly well under the new Republican state administration. With the appointment last week of Major John Fulton of this city, major of the Ninth Battalion, O. N. G., to a $1,200 clerkship in the adjutant general office, northern Ohio has three colored representatives recognized. The first was Attorney Ted Lemon, appointed as one of the assistant attorneys in the state attorney general's office, and Attorney Sutton of this city, who was appointed engrossing clerk for the Ohio senate.

The judicial election held in the state of Illinois on Tuesday of this week was significant of one result. It demonstrated beyond peradventure that the grand old Republican party and its recalcitrant children, the "Bull Moosers," had finally settled their differences and were once more—and we hope forever—unified. It has broadly conclusively that with these two elements fighting on common ground and against their ancient enemy, the Democrats, that the party of Lincoln, Grant and Logan, and the great principles for which they stood, are still in the grip of the greatest majority of the citizens in this common community.

Throughout the state as the returns came in from the various judicial circuit districts the tidings brought the same joyful news—that the Republican candidates, backed by their allies, the Progressives and trumped. The Illinois state supreme court for the first time in a dozen years, and for the next nine years, will politically be controlled by Republican members. Judge Orrin N. Carter from the first supreme court district was returned as the choice of all the people, Republicans and Democrats alike, without opposition. In the four other supreme courts the Republican candidates fairly "walked away" from their Democratic opponents.

In Cook county the voters recognized "work and worth" by retaining on the circuit bench the sitting judges on the single exception of Judge Edward O. Brown.

The failure of Judge Brown was a surprise to lawyers and laymen. He received the

W. ALLISON SWEENEY RECITES FACTS ABOUT "THE REAL BIRTH OF A NATION"
What, this thing they call "The Birth of a Nation?" And will I say a word thereto; and its chief sponsor in those diggings, The Chicago Tribune, "The World's (?) Greatest (?) Newspaper (?) Will I Give me elbow room. It is inconceivable that there can be found those other than fools or weak-eyed sentimentals, so during as to have named this spawn of hell, decoration of lies and putid imagination "The Birth of a Nation"—this nation. Recall that passage in the history of our country, measured by a space of fifteen years, known as the period of Reconstruction, that furnishes the pictures that the Chicago Tribune speaks of as "the greatest piece of work done for the films by American producers", and imagine, if you can, that it was the hour and the day that heralded "The Birth of a Nation." Such a violation of the truths and ethics of history, is so far fetched and of surprise and indignation swallow up other us, we might be moved to laughter. The birth of a nation—ours sixteen years of American history—DARK, BLOODY, HORRIBLE!
For one hundred and thirty-nine years, Attucks, the black, whose heroic devotion and martyred life on the plains of Lexington went out with his sword. The MIGHT BE BORN, has slept in peace in the spot of The Birth—IN FACT of a nation, NATION, this mighty commonwealth, and to have that glory appropriated, stolen at this distant day, even by so inconsequential an agency as a picture film, by the descendants and sympathizers of men who have destroyed it, in the interest of human slavery, is enough to call the sheeted loyal dead to life and arms again, with Lincoln walking ahead.
Said the Tribute in its editorial, boosting the pictured crime:
The moving picture play "The Birth of a Nation" is, in our opinion, the greatest piece of work done for the films by, American poet William Gibbs, "Cuba" as a tremendous spectacle and for the American temperament it has points of artistic advantage over the D'Annunzio photoplay.
Granting the artistic atmosphere and beauty of the films, it is the DIRTEST, VILEST TRAVESTY on the RIGHT, TRUTHS of AMERICANism as the ego is affected ever shown spoken of, or in any manner depicted in this country.
Again:
In Chicago it has thus far been barred from production. It is not immoral or coarse. It does not offend for any of the reasons which usually cause the prohibition of picture plays or the elimination of scenes from them. It is essentially grounded on historical fact, representing the struggles of that terrible time in the South when the whites, back from the war, saw their government taken over by the newly enfranchised blacks controlled by the northern carpet-bearer.
Not immoral or coarse! Spirits of the damned, SHADES OF HELL Pardon, please. I had deemed you potentates amongst the liars. You have rivals.
"TheIR government!" TRATORS, MISCREANTS, in comparison to whom Judas iscarlot was a saint; whom Jesus was the light of light. They HAD NO GOVERNMENT; were entitled to NO RIGHTS!
What happened with the Negro ascendant and how the white re-established his supremacy is shown with obvious natural sympathy for the South, and no doubt with such heightening of effect as the Black Man's sample. It presents what the South says and the North of our day, at least, is inclined to believe to be truth.
"What happened" etc. What, I ask of you, Mr. Tribute, DID NOT HAPPEN? What, in the galaxy of GRIME, TORTURE, INHUMANITY, of RE-DEATH, OF THE BLACK MAN, WAS NOT PERPETRATED, UPON THE BLACK MAN OF that CURSED SECTION, IS NOT BEING PERPETRATED THIS VERY

The Tribune has been and is opposed to interference with freedom of themselves, and confesses that the subject here is involved has complexities which do not yield to the application of ordinary rules. The terrible concrete reality of the moving picture is the disturbing factor and the consequent emotional response of the spectator is the disturbing result. The sin of the film is its effacement to interference with freedom of expression.
Ode, dear, oh, my, Mr. Tribune man, and in the fervid expression of Widow Bedot, "Who would have think it ov yew?" But how about interference - with the freedom of breathing - of life. The right to stand in God's sunshine by the black man of the South? Are you "opposed" to the South? Are you "wanting" the South? The South is billeted with the rotten, unmarked, lost graves, in swamp, highway and highway, of thousands of murdered men, whose only crime - was God's, in that He created them black. Has there been a time, a day, Mr. Tribune man, when employing the great possibilities at your disposal, you have declared to the country, that you were "opposed" to the kingdom, that you were "wanting" to rackase your cowbeyne memory, run over your files that you may answer truthfully.
the blitting out of these lives, the scorching of those "Souls of Black Folk," whose main misdemeanors, as God reigns in glory, were that they were black, and upon a time helped in the restoration's life, went the burning of homes, the maltreatment of mothers, wives, sisters and daughters—the womanhood of a people—were you, are you today, "opposed" to those wooled tragedies?
Were you ever "opposed" to THESE things being have you ever proclaimed it? Dare you, are you really great enough, broad and untainted with Negrophobia sufficiently to proclaim it, justice asking, TODAY, TOMORROW and TOMORROW?
Are you, have not you always been an apologist of the South, a trucker and a sneering grimmer, against the Negro, oftimes, adduced helplessly, without shame or contrition.
Day after day, now, at this moment, and harking back through the years of the past, with no gleam of hope streaking the enricling skies, all over this broad land, rich through the toil of our fathers, sodden by the housed slopes of our brothers, East, West, North, and South, by the benevolent of teaming millions, beneath your very nose, within the very vision of our one-sided gaze—so sure of the slightest error in the Negro—are thousands upon thousands of Negro boys and girls, and women in the making, American citizens by birth and law, denied their place in the sun, the opportunity to labor that bread may be thirsts to eat, or a chance to eat, the nourishment born of hopelessness, the primrose path that leads to CRIME, PRISON, DEATH—going to hell in HORDS. Of these heart-wriling conditions, this shameful indictment of American justice (?) and American civilization (?) what have you ever said in condemnation, shouted from the housestores; WHAT, TODAY, HAVE YOU TO? Is it known? Have you ever proclaimed it, even as so recently you have your praises of this vile picture reel, tending to bind tighter' the clanking chains of intolerance and prejudice around the limbs of black people? Are you "opposed" to this compound hindering of a race, this slow murdering of a people, of millions of men and women to come, through boys and girls, being pressed down, driven to hopelessness, hurried to destruction?

ROBERT H. MAJORS IS FATALLY SHOT
Father-in-Law Cowardly Shoots Brother of Well-Known Chicago, Physician in the Back- News Spread Like Lightning- Austin, Tex, Citizens Stirred.
Austin, Texas, June 11.—Friday evening, May 13, one of the saddest irregulations in the history of Austin occurred at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. R. H. Majors, when Lewis Butler, the father-in-law, cowardly slipped into the kitchen door and shot Mr. Majors in the back. The writer gives to the public information first-handed from Mrs. R. H. Majors, the wife.
Some years ago Mrs. Naud Nelson, sister to Mrs. Majors, died very suddenly in Waco, Texas, of heart trouble, leaving four little children, three girls and one boy. Mr. Majors took these children to raise and became in every manner and form a father to them. Four years later the mother of Mrs. Majors died, leaving Lewis Butler, her father, a widower, too, becoming desolate, went to Austin to live with his daughter and Mr. Majors, his son-in-law. It ought to be mentioned that after Mrs. Butler died Lewis Butler sold the homestead, and through profligate living spent all the money coming from its sale. He then goes to Austin. Being a cook by trade, he would work first at one hotel or restaurant and then another, until his health began to break down; then it was that Mr. Majors sought out a hospital or sanitary room to put his father-in-law in, to have him properly treated. A surgical operation had to be performed, and Mr. Butler became a doctor. He was a very tame wife and death for several weeks, during which time Mr. Majors' interest and devotion to his father-in-law became his general comment of all the public.
After Mr. Butter recovered, his son-in-law, being a man of large acquaintances, was given the privilege of Blackstone, principal of Prineau View College, to give him employment to cook at that great institution. He gains the privilege of his stay at Prineau View, Mr. Butter makes up for his absence by going along with the steward, Mr. Chay Arlidge, he is discharged, and he returns to work. Mr. Butter is invited to his daughter imitated that he reimbursed Mr. Makers for money spent in his surgeries, and that Mr. Butter claimed that he had other debts in Waco, and would give them nothing. He went on to work at the company, and that Mr. Butter returns to Austin. Then became stormy times. He was fury, abusive, and insulting to his daughter. He had no pleasant words for anybody, and became so violent in his temper that he had to insist that he find other quarters. It may be necessary to state that all the money he gave to his law家 he did not, contribute any money to board and room, and yet in his last years he gave his four grandchildren to feed, clean, book funds, for two, of the older girls were kept in college part of the time at
A few days before the scene of this sad tragedy that has cast a blight on the lives of many, Robert H. Majors, he said to his father-in-law, Mr. Butler, "I do've done my best. You must get out of my house." On the day this conversation took place, Mr. Majors told him and told him that he had a 85-year-old son, Robert H. Majors with it. A day or two after, at about 10 o'clock in the evening, seeing his son on a cell-waiting seemingly committed against a blind Majors, he knew he was any murderer should approach him for any cause, and ever attacked by Mr. Butler. Immediately the news that Robt. H. Majors was hurried to Austins best private sanitarium and Austins four leading and yet completed operation, but the massassin's bullet had done its deadly death for four days. Dr. M. J.

Proving himself a master of the office, he mailmilling clerk in 1833, and held that position for thirty years, remaining in office until his death. He himself proclined in his labors, and by affable and agreeable behavior made himself respected by everybody, enjoying the care of the two races, in and out of the church. He was a devoted member in church and bologne, and ranked among the leading spirits of enterprise among the church. He was done, providing handsomely for his widow, chiefly among which is a beautiful house, large and spacious well, kept. His funeral was attended by most of the lodges, Masons and Knights of Pythetia, and all the members of the church, all the teachers, dentists, drugs and business men and a vast portion of Austin's 40,000 beds. There were three hundred and sixty-five people in all fifty-three.

BAPTIZING AT CALVARY CHURCH LAST SUNDAY.
Interesting Items. Told by Our Special Correspondent.
(Genevieve Reuben.)
Milwaukee, Wisc., June 11—A few years ago Mr. Gee, J. Fox came to this church to visit his young lad in age 18, he accepted the pastorate of Calvary Baptist Church, which he attended. He was this city and it has been his good pleasure to baptize some one every year since he has been in charge. Further, he has been a minister he deacons, and last, but in no wise least, it was his pheragic to administer that to his church charisma.
The morning service at the church was only meagerly attended, but in the evening a vast audience, greater than the seating capacity of the main auditorium, gathered to witness an old-fashioned baptizing in the pol of the church. The pastor delivered a very instructive discourse on baptism, using for his text Mark 1:4, "John did baptize in the wilderness and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sina." Rev. A. W. Herron prayed a soul inaspiring petition for the blessing of the congregation. While the candidates, Mr. Carl Prevatt and Mrs. Mary Smith, were preparing for the ceremony, a collection of $3.63 was lifted by Deacon Dungey and Robinson, including 53 cents of missionary money, after which the congregation sang a number of befitting hymns. Preceding the baptism the choir sang "Lord Jesus I Long to be Perfectly Thine," and Rev. J. S. Woods of St. Marks, A. M. E. church, invoked Jehovah's sanctification upon the water. At the conclusion of the baptism, the sacrament of the Lord's Supper was administered and the candidates were given the right hand of fellowship into the church. "And they sang a song and went out."
The chair gave an excellent program at
the choir. Thursday night, assist at
bome.
St. Mark A. M. E. Church.
At the morning service last Sunday Rev. Woods preached a short sermon and converted the meeting into general class. The attendance throughout the day was remarkable, even in the Sunday school. The church plans to have new rally next Sunday, 13th, in connection with quarterly meeting, at 3 o'clock. Mr. R. B. Montgomery, Mesdames Deaconess M. Brown, N. Shaw and Miss Genevieve Reuben were appointed pew captains.
Love feast was well attended Friday night. * * * Mr. Albert W. Smack and Mrs. Gladys Sellers-Smack returned a fortnight ago with the Weaver Bros. from their trip to Indianapolis and the company immediately resumed its engagement at the Fountain Inn. They will remain here about two months and then possibly journey east. Mr. Smack is a silver tone tenor and Mrs. Gladys Sellers-Smack has pleased many audiences as a soulful, dramatic soprano soloist. She informed the reporter that her musical education is not complete. However we believe with a few more months' training we will be able to address her as Mme. Smack. * * * Mr. and Mrs. W. Porter of Grand Rapids, Mich., have located at 151 7th street with Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Johnson. * * * Mr. John G.

DRESS OF DIVIDED COLORS
Peculiar Garments That Are Allotted to Inmates of Holland Orphan Asylums.
The Dutch differ from the Chinese in announcing to the world the birth of children only in the article displayed. The Chinamen hang a piece of ginger over the main entrance to the Hollanders indicate the event by hanging it alongside with the lace a pink background for a boy and tinsel for a girl. The orphans of some of the cities of Holland are quite conspicuous, and especially when seen on the streets of Amsterdam, they are termed half and half clothing. The east half of a boy's coat, including the sleeve, is red, while the west half is black. The dresses of girls are divided in a similar manner, but are topped off by becoming white caps, which make them more attractive. This singular style of dress is said to have been adopted to enable the railroad officials, as well as the authorities, to keep track of them, says the National Geographical Magazin. As the police in Holland have the control of children fitted to them until they are of age, the authorities must be fortunate (wearing these odd garments in public) present a very striking appearance.

Obituary
Patti D. C. Jones was born in Chicago, Mt. Sept. 24, 1851, and died June 2, 1915, of a disposition of extreme gentleness, obedience and great patience under strain. She was born in Chicago, remained with her until the end. To her many friends she endeared herself by her kindness, love, and kindness, loving and indulgent mother and aunt she was over a source of pride and comfort. Their homecoming each evening was a celebration of greeting as she unhered them into the home, where steaming refreshments awaited her. We were always busy performing some loving task for mother and aunt in return for gifts, and we bestowed upon her. But at last the delicacy Wednesday morning, after a sudden tack which lasted but a short time, the mother was overjoyed to everbring peace and joy. At the last she asked her mother to pray and, saying that she was praying, too, she laid her arm in her aunt's arm and peacefully passed away.
The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Robinson of St. Mark's M. E. church on Friday, June 4, at the family memorial. The event was at Oakgrove cemetery.

HYDE PARK.
Friday, June 4, will go down in history as the greatest day among the citizens of Hyde Park. It was the third anniversary of the opening of the settlement and was fittingly celebrated by a banquet in honor of Mrs. T. G. Macon whose birthday came on that date, and who was the president of the city federation at the time the Clothets set out to secure its doors, and caused that organization to give the first ten dollars to start the work going.
Mrs. Jessie Johnson, president of the city federation of clubs, drove to the Settlement in her lovely touring car, accompanied by Mrs. Macon, spoke highly of the work done here and encouraged the women to greater accomplishments. Both ladies were beautifully gowned and the clubs felt honored, lightened and their presence. Along with others, they presented Mrs. and Mrs. L. Brackett Bishop. Too much praise cannot be given to Mr. L. Lloyd Stone who was present with the Y. M. C. A. orchestra, and spoke of his year's work at the Settlement. Mr. Stone is director of boy's work and a splendid type of Christian manhood. Mr. Dave Robinson, who had charge of the dining room, is still being praised for having the tables arranged and decorated so beautifully. Jackclarkidge was hostess for the evening.
The Young Men's Club decorated and cleaned the hall, so that now it is a credit to Hyde Park.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER
THE MORAL TONE OF TIPPING
P. 7. WINNER
By Z. WITHERS
In discussing this question we desire to be frank and honest, and in order to do justice to all we shall employ nothing but the truth. In the discussion of all great questions of public interest we assume similar attitudes in order to reach proper conclusions. The morals of men and women as the one of tipping. There are thousands of honest working people who must accept the tip in order to live, and there are equally as many thousands who must give the tip in order that these workers may live.
The industries affected, by the tip question are hotels, cafes, dining cars and sleeping cars, and inordinately this system has spread to include every little service which is rendered by the worker persona. In the roughfare, theater, etc. A taxation so general, though voluntary, yet direct, must necessarily be predicated upon some fact. People are not going to do something continually without a reason. And the man who does not pay taxes via the tip is generally with the worker persona non grata. You must tip in order to be respected by the worker, and he must have the tip to live.
There is something radically wrong with an industrial system which requires a double pay for its service—one not included in the original cost and yet as important. Legislatures of various states are today grappling with the problem and attempting to force industrial corporations who are derelict in that respect to increase the profit by increasing prohibitory enactments along these lines. Tipping, therefore, in many jurisdictions, is illegal.
Indeed this is a great question when scholars and legislatures are seeming without means to terminate its progress. Before the tip there is the connivance of the stronger man, and behind it the defenseless humiliation of the weaker one. Both struggle to maintain positions which they have inherited and reluctantly recede. The rich man must have his privileges, and the poor man all the bread that he can get.
The Foundation of Tipping.
Our subject here relates to past conditions of society, as the origin of tipping is an inheritance of an age which produced it—feudal days and customs. Socially, feudalism found its justice upon the law of necessity. It was an attempt on part of the state, or the power which constituted the state, to maintain economic independence against an all and aggressive ecclesiasticalism which carries back to the ancient past.
By the king's allegory of ablegant rights rested in the crowned head as ruler. Manors were created from crown lands or crown estates under the early English kings, and these in order were given to those who were the king's followers. The nobility were those who inherited title. In this way a sort of bulwark was established between lay authority and ecclesiastical power. Question of authority between these two forces were often difficulty settled.
Feudalism prevented the usurpation of law authority by ecclesiastical rule, and did more: It gave birth to class distinction. You say, what has that to do with tipping in rightful and wrong nature? We say, it is necessary to show you the foundation of the law of master and servant which makes clear the prior position of class distinctions which were then created, and now the theory of tipping to satisfy a natural condition (satisfies) which results from a prior condition of class distinctions. A classed class of workers was created through the establishment of class distinction in the social body, and the

work of menial labor carries a tint of slavery. The term skilled labor is a misnomer if intended for an organic term. Why is not all labor skilled? The fact that we have arts and crafts of various natures gives no such grounds. The differentiations of labor are not intended to imply such a meaning, and artification due to newer conditions through special discovery. To be skilled is to know an art or craft. Whatever the employment, they are skilled who know that special line of work. Trade unionism has grown stronger each year, due to advanced machinery and highly trained workers and their co-operative tendencies, and they have been able to receive greater benefits from their labor because of organization. Notwithstanding this fact, their work can never be more important for the labor of other men who are not organized in social needs of all men are similar—food, clothes, habitation, education, and governmental protection.
By a decree as famous as if the proclamation was written by the executive of the nation and acquiescence given thereto by every citizen of the land, we deny common justice to thousands of honest working men and women of our country by allowing a wage basis beneath actual living conditions, which they must accept, and the tip is the means to prevent hunger shame thus we use one sin offended by our own actions. This modern service we find to be a common of a long and forgotten past. We grant no man the right to title as a part of our organic law. We abolished the right of title by the adoption of the constitution of the United States. Why is it that we will not abolish other customs as pernicious and degrading as the titles of nobility seem to us? The law of master and servant presupposes a condition of servitude, and the tip is the personification of evil. The dignity of labor should never be cursed with the conditions of slavery. Labor in the high eminence of its power is the impulse of the noblest sentiment of God. In our present state of social development labor we crown king, and all mankind serve. Who brings disrespect and encroachment of immoral conditions upon the high office of labor is a traitor to the American flag and an enemy to our people. The labor labor aspect and dignity is a valuable heart. Who refuses to labor is a cringing coward beneath the greatest flag that the sun will ever shine upon.
The working man today resolves to do the world's work upon a higher plane than yesterday, and into his work go sympathy, manliness, courage and intellect. These natural forces are dedicated to make our day a model for tomorrow.
The work of slavery and involuntary servitude we cast off, and enlightened public opinion supplants it with a higher knowledge of humanity: Liberty, justice, God.
The meaning of the word servant is not a deserate, delicent, dependent, helpless, or passive idea or expression, but quite the contrary. We declare the world's greatest benefactors are its greatest servants.
Since we can so easily trace the divine good in labor—for with it rightly employed the world becomes richer and more prosperous—we pose any institution which will degrade its nobleness. Labor is the natural flow of social energy which ennobles its giver and enriches the world. All labor is worthy its hire. Then why are tips necessary? Underpaid labor in any industry is a libel against the honesty of that institution, blessing to us in compensation? The
. . .
light of God's truth becomes more plain to us as we reclaim our brothers and sisters in bondage. The immorality of the tip is beyond question the same principle by which slavery was legalized in the United States. It was born in the days when man failed to recognize the fatherhood of man and Fatherhood of woman. It was created when aristocracy was the basis and ruled with its oppressive hand. It was given life through the munificence of charity in the hands of king and potentate, in counterdistinction of even justice to labor to share in its own product. It created an artificial difference between man and man purposely to degrade the worker. It is highly scientific, as it refuses honest recognition of value. A deprecative spirit of ingratitude in this way reaches the very vitals of national power—honesty and character. Immoral, cruel, unjust, and degrading; and with all, we failed to find words in the English language which are sufficient for its denunciation. Its effect is that of mutual debasement of the social growth. Therefore in our social growth the condition must be the leveling down instead of leveling up of the social body.
Can we realize what it means in America to have any class of workers underpaid? It means inefficiency, dwarf development as to home life, disease, and society must tax itself for the care of the human delicents. Today there are 250,000 of them, and they cost the nation more than $1,000,000 annually.
From an economic standpoint underpaid labor, like slave labor, is most costly to you and I. Its lack of moral stimulant is like the ill-nourished arm upon the human body, where circulation of the precious blood of life is retarded by abnormal conditions. Disease and uselessness are automatic. The whole body is affected through a decaying member. The tipping is justified, slavery is legalized. We cannot have one without the other. America is "the land of the free and the home of the brave."

THOBURNS DEFEAT
ST. CHRISTOPHERS
‘There was not much baseball in the
long-drawn-out matinee last Saturday
when the St. Christopher boys fell
before Thobum Mf. E. church team.
‘Tho score was 20 to 6. It was not
lack of practice this time, it was
because the other “boys” were men.
They could hit {t exactly where they
wanted to, Texas leaguers, home runs,
Infleld bunts. It seemed as though
tho St. Christopher boys were glued
to thelr positions, ‘They were seared,
‘Pho flereeness with whieh they hit the
ball seomed to strike fear into the
whole team, Nearly every man on the
team made errors. ‘Tho ficlders had
not worked much before this season,
for the pitchers had kept the ball
in the infleld, but they worked ovor-
time in this game and they were not
used to it, Wilson was not pitching
up to ils form and the whole team
seomed to follow his example, He
pitched a poor game and got poor sup-
port. The boys were all off, all around,
that’s all. ‘They were not playing
a team in thelr class. ‘They were
men, several of them, and our boys

‘The benefit movie at the Star Thea-

success. Tho novelty seems to have
been well liked. ‘The citizens turned
ont to the number of 450 to witness
the very excellent feature “Damon &

for two shows in the evening and the
patrons expressed their sincere appre-

WATER TOYS OF THE EAST
Ingenious in the Extreme Are the Con-
‘trivances Devised-for the Amuse-
‘ment of the Youngsters.
Europe and America turn out for
their children many ingenious toys,
but they do not compare in ingenuity
with the strange expanding water toys
with which the children of the far
East have amused themselves for cen-
turles,
‘These curious toys are placed in
‘small wooden boxes, similar to the lit-
tle paint boxes often seen in our own
country. ‘They have the appearance of
soiled shavings, broken matches and
allapidated toothpicks, but when
thrown info the water ‘the ingenious
playthings at onee exhibit properties
that show them to be more than mere
toys or bits of stick.
‘The wood of these toys have been

‘an early period in church history, and
were Introduced into England by Au-

Part devoted to beseeching the grace
of tho Holy Ghost, as periods when
ministers were admitted to holy or-

A TOUCH OF NATURE.
THE ROARING LIFE OF THE CITY'S HEART strikes such a harsh note in human consciousness these June days. We wonder even now how many tired souls are preparing for a hegira to the quiet restfulness of country life where the touch of nature has a chance to stir into being those blessed qualities of the soul, kindness, sympathy and love so long dormant here in the rush and bustle for material things. Myriad and countless faces in the passing show bespeak tired hearts, oh, so tired, yet wedded to the graven images of city life, without understanding as to the cause of faded hope, lost ambition and jaded nerves.

```
Let us recommend a panacea for happiness all dead and still, which will bring sunshine again across the threshold of your abode. Try a brief change of scene and air away from the cruel grueling city's strife and in the country village where the curfew and the town clock strikes the hours.
Ever and forever we strain each nerve and fibre of our being keeping pace with the mad rush onwards, which so soon leads downwards, in this big aggregation of suffering humanity. What hysteria, why not prepare to take our places in the sun, to bare our heads to the gentle refreshing breezes that blow far away from this maddening crowd? Let us spend a few weeks with heart throbs atune to the music of simple life, and dream dreams and see visions and live the poetry of the soul. How blessed are the dreams and vision life affords if we but hesitate and give fancy rein; the pleasures of imagination, how sublime.
Then afterwards, what a new inspiration to lift loads and to do duty, to feel the sympathy going out from breast to breast, to have a mutual understanding pervading our friendships and our lessons. Let us find places in the country now as summer comes on a place and be sunkissed and perfumed in our hearts with the ineffable sweetness of the budding trees and flowers, where Great nature touches us with magic wand and makes us all akin.
VARDAMAN ON TOUR.
WISCONSIN AND IOWA undoubtedly are all excited over the proposed visit of U. S. S. James K. Vardaman, and right here before it slips our memory let us add the subject of his chatterings will be the Negro. Astounding when you stop to think it over, and on the other hand it does appear that we have heard of him talking along similar lines once or twice before, but his craft draws so little water it scarcely makes a ripple on the human sea.
Information is lacking as to just who sent for him either in Iowa or Wisconsin—the denizens of these states have always been credited with displaying unusually good sense. Perhaps a misguided chautauqua firm signed him up much as would Barnum and Bailey's contract for another clown. The same fate awaits this spirit of evil as awaited in the vaudeville field the gentleman from the range who was supposed to have wrested from our race the title of heavy weight champion of the world—the public in his case failed to applaud, the box office receipts were nil and the weather for walking home being fine he made a bee line for shelter. Vardaman may be a big dog in his own home town, but outside he is likened unto a candle trying to outshine the moon.
LOWER REALTY VALUES.
PRESTON M. NOLAN, real estate appraiser, is responsible for the statement that startling changes in realty prices have taken place in Chicago during the past few years, while the loop property is lower, in certain other sections values have risen immensely. In portions of the south side the invasion of OUR people, he claims, has wrecked prices; on the north and west sides the outrages of the "black hand" are given as the cause. There is always something pathetically amusing in the statement that the same piece of property changes value when owned alternately by white and black. Because a prejudiced white man elects to sell his property for less than it is worth and because a colored man is smart enough to buy up that property is no logical reason for the depreciation in price. Nor can the property be repurchased from the colored man at a sacrifice price. Many are the white men who sold their valuable holdings below par who now wish they had not done so. There is no question in the world but what the south side is the coming side
---
from a business point of view, and property values will rise accordingly. Wabash, Michigan and Indiana avenues especially—all through streets—are in the limelight at present. To those who have been fortunate enough to buy in this section, there is but one thing to do and that is to hold on to their property for a few years and they will be amply repaid for so doing. The white people are fooling no one but themselves by making the prejudiced sacrifices and we should take advantage of every opportunity to secure property in any section of the city when offered at a bargain.
EXPECTING TOO MUCH
LOOKING BACK OVER THE PAST HALF CENTURY and summing what progress has been made by the race we are inclined to feel just a little proud of ourselves, being told as we have been, by fair minded members of the powers that be, that our rise is unprecedented in the world's history. Be that as it may, we must not forget that we are still in our swaddling clothes—the few who have reached the heights are but a drop in the bucket, the great mass are yet in darkness and must be lifted out of the cave into the light. It is the solemn duty of those who are fortunate to perform this task. So much has been written and said of our progress that more is expected of us than we are really capable of giving. "How much of the trouble and tragedy of reconstruction might have been spared to both races if there had been a school of Booker Washington's philosophy to educate the newly freed slaves as to their opportunities," says the Louisville Courier Journal. That is true, but instead there was the school of carpet baggery in which honest but misguided abolitionists and conscienceless adventurers with nothing in view but self interest vied with each other in stirring up the flames of race hatred from the embers of war, and adding to the evil of impoverishment and the humiliation of defeat the injury of intolerable insult. Let us grant that we have done as much as could reasonably be expected of us in the short period of time, let us also come to a full realization of the fact that we have but started and there is much ahead of us to accomplish.
BUILDING FOR THE FUTURE.
THE IMPORTANCE OF LAYING ASIDE a portion of your income each week for the proverbial rainy day is just beginning to dawn on a certain member of the race, and the scramble for material things has begun in earnest. A man that is not the possessor of some real estate, a business or something tangible, is not considered much of a citizen.
In the past ten years Chicagoans have made wonderful progress along all lines. Hundreds of beautiful and costly homes have been purchased and every branch of the business field has been invaded, and it must be said to our credit we are liberally patronizing race members who have run their establishments on merit and not on sentiment. All things being equal, it is right that we should patronize our own. No man catering to the public should expect to give inferior goods or service and expect to retain trade. The color of the skin counts for nothing, the question is can you deliver the goods?
There are but few people who cannot put at least a portion of their earnings aside—we see peddlers, laborers, scissor grinders and the like apparently living from hand to mouth—and yet when a young University of Chicago student studying sociology visited what she termed "poverty center," she found in one block that five day laborers with a wage of not more than $1.75 a day each own buildings in the block. Two scissor grinders each have two buildings. Two factory workers each are landlords. A blacksmith has his own home and three buildings besides. A junk dealer has three buildings. A barber collects rent in a building with a gray stone front. An umbrella mender has a building of his own, as has a vender of washtubs. Should we be less thrifty than these people who are mostly of foreign birth, and who can scarcely speak the English language? Our fault has been that we wanted to start at the top, nothing short of that would be dignified enough. That all work is honest and honorable is a seemingly hard lesson for us to learn, but the light is slowly dawning and we are coming into our own as fast perhaps as Divine Providence intended.
WAITING
A PLAN TO PROVIDE GARDEN PLOTS for about two hundred families is under way by philanthropic Kansas citizens and they are urgently asking the public to help them in this laudable work. It is proposed to colonize the cheap land districts of Southern Missouri and Western Kansas, each settler is to be given a parcel of ground and a sufficient quantity of garden seed to sow it. Prizes will be offered for the best showing at the end of each year. Here is a chance for some of our calamity howlers to get in on the ground floor without investing a penny. No man need be down and out in this country if he can be otherwise. Unfortunately we always have with us a class of individuals who are looking for a job plucking the flowers off century plants, a task that will keep them busy a few minutes every hundred years. The bush that produces the most beautiful roses often has the ugliest thorns. Can we expect more?
BUILDING MONUMENTS
SENTIMENT PLAYS A GREAT PART in the human makeup. A shaft of stone or marble erected to commemorate some great event or to the memory of some individual who has played an important part in life's scheme looks very imposing; and yet to the thoughtful the question arises what honor if any came to this same individual in life? We strew flowers on the graves of our loved ones who are gone, but do we make their life path any brightener?
At the annual reunion of the United Confederate Veterans which was recently held in Richmond, Va., a resolution was presented to erect a monument in memory of the old Negro slaves of the South. Every so often we hear of some such "heart ease" from the old warriors in gray. Perhaps we should be glad even at this late day they realize the right was not on their side. There is so much more good these worthy gentlemen could do with a sum of money large enough to build a creditable monument. For instance, they might build and support a school in some rural district where the offsprings of these old slaves are simply drawing for light and learning. They might use their influence to better conditions all along the line for the black man. The soldier in gray will soon be a memory; why not leave something behind worth while?
AND NOW WE ARE IN THE HANDS OF THE ICE MAN. Somebody's always taking the joy out of life.
DECLINE OF MINSTRELSY.
THOSE WHO WERE FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO WINESS the minstrel performance given by Chicago's smart set undoubtedly recalled the days when minstrelsy was at its height and when a performance of this nature was billed at the local theater its popularity was only second to a three ring circus. Of all the varied and manifold kinds of theatrical entertainment minstrelsy is the one which is absolutely native to these states and which could not have come into existence anywhere else in the civilized world. Here in America alone has the transplanted African been brought into intimate contact with the transplanted European.
Other nations may have disputed our claim to the invention of the steamboat and the telegraph, but minstrelsy is as indisputably due to American inventiveness as the telephone itself. Here in the United States it had its humble beginnings; here it expanded and flourished for many years; from here it was exported to Great Britain, where it established itself for many seasons; from here it made sporadic excursions into France and Germany, and here at last it has fallen into decline, a degeneracy and a decay which seems to doom it to a speedy extinction. Its life was little longer than that vouchsafed to man—three score years and ten—for it was born in the fifth decade of the nineteenth century, and in the second decade of the twentieth it lingers superfluous on the stage with none to do it reverence. Perhaps we shall only revive it in an amateurish way, if so and the effort is as pleasing as the one put forth recently by the Young Women's Amateur Minstrel Club we shall have no regrets.
WE CAN BEAT THE WORLD EXPLAINING. A recent importation from below the Mason and Dixon line, when asked by his employer what he did with a letter that was on his desk, replied, "I tuck it to the postoffice and put it in the hole." "Didn't you see it wasn't addressed?" queried the employer?" "Yes," he replied, "I saw dere was no writin' on de 'velope, but I lowed you did dat on purpose, so's I couldn't tell who you was writin' to." Some reasoning that, and still they say we are not progressing.
THE WEATHER MAN never does things by halves, likewise he appears to recognize no such thing as a happy medium. In order to look and feel pleasant one must be able to shift from flannels to alpaca at a moment's notice.
MAYOR THOMPSON has convinced a great many people that when he says a thing he means it, and the big Chicago dailies might as well learn first as last that he cannot be intimidated or bulldozed.
THE RESIGNATION OF SECRETARY BRYAN up to the present writing has had no material effect on the price of food stuffs, but we understand from good authority that admission to chautauqua lectures have advanced materially.
THE ALMANAC still insists this is summer weather, but some people don't believe in almanac "dope."
THE FIGHT on The Dirt of a Nation still waxes warm and it appears to be only a matter of a short time till it will find its way on the refuse heap where it rightfully belongs.
SOME LITTLE DIFFERENCE between telling Germany what to do and making her do it—if there is any doubt on this subject we respectfully refer you to the Allies.
SPEAKING OF OUR READINESS TO FIGHT, has the Eighth regiment been overlooked?
WELL, ANYWAY, we have the satisfaction of knowing we told Mexico which was the right course to pursue, even if she doesn't follow our advice.
THE MAN WHO BELIEVEES IN WALKING as an exercise is also glad the car strike wasn't pulled off as promised. They would have found it was a long way to other places besides Tipperary.
NOW IF ROOSEVELT WERE PRESIDENT—but what's the use in speculating, if the war isn't over in the next two years we will have a chance to see what he would do.
IF PRESIDENT WILSON runs short of men for the cabinet, there is Dr. Booker T. Washington, and he might look farther and fare worse at that.
BEWARE OF THE MAN who though he has no business of his own can give such apparently good advice on how to run your affairs successfully.
A SCIENTIST SAYS don't eat much in warm weather. The way times are a great many people will follow that advice to the letter.

YOU and The Great.
There has always been a tendency, shown by all historians, writers of things of the past, to picture to the newer generations the heroes of the past as possessors of some divine power. There has been apparently a desire to give the impression that these men who won themselves fame had something supernatural about them and that they were not molded of common clay. Seldom, if ever, are famous men shown to be human in their lives, the errors they made are hidden from the eyes of the inquisitive youths who seek the truth. There seems to be a marvelous difference between the great and the ordinary. The ordinary man is known to err, is expected to err, and the celebrated are this is a very poor method to pursue gluing the biographies of the great. It would take none of the brilliancy from the glory of a man to show his human side and allow the world to know that he had risen above the ordinary only because he had first conquered himself and encourage many struggleers in the battle of life.
If you have ambitions, if you have
a goal you wish to reach which seems inaccessible, if you wish to emulate any great man, remember you are full of possibilities. That your great men erred should encourage you to greater efforts. He faltered, he was ordinary, but he took a new start, worked and became famous; so can you. You may seem to be failing, your inferiority may be apparent, you may have faults, but all of these things seemed true of your hero, but he became great in spite of them.
Plato, the philosopher, in spite of his greatness, had a poor conception of woman and her proper place in the human ranks, and spoke in favor of slavery. Napoleon was over ambitious, selfish and over-bearing and has never been forgiven for deserving his wife. Washington was a great user of profanity. Daniel Webster became over ambitious and became inconsistent and lost some of the glory which shone around him. Men who have been successful in all walks of life have made mistakes and have done things that were wrong either before or after they have acquired fame. This proves conclusively that the great and the ordinary man have much in common. You have the same possibilities in you that the great man has in him, the same opportunities are yours. Go ahead.

PETER H.
By proclamation by his honor William Hale Thompson, mayor of the city of Chicago, the week beginning June 6 and ending June 12 shall be known as "fly week." All the citizens, male and female, boys and girls of school age and under school age, are called upon to engage in the battle of swatting the fly. The most deadly enemy of mankind as a disease spreader is the common house fly. No home is safe, no home is clean, no people are free and healthy who permit files to infest their homes or premises.
Breeding Places of Flies.
The house fly (*musca domestica*) is the most common fly found in nearly all localities and in all seasons of the year. The stable manure is the most common breeding place for flies. Next to the stable manure box come filthy rags, wet paper with decaying organic matter. Under favorable conditions, such as wetness, warmth and filth, the eggs will be hatched in about eight hours in less favorable conditions the eggs will be hatched in about twenty-four hours. It takes from ten to twelve days for eggs to develop into full-fledged flies. If you will look into the manure box, among wet, filthy rags and decaying organic matter you will find in each fly nest about 120 eggs. You can see, therefore, that it is possible for one hen fly to become the great grandmother of one trillion five hundred fifty-five billion two hundred million (1,555,200,000,000) flies between the first of May and the fourth of October. It is generally estimated that one-half of each hatching are females and that each young female will be just as energetic an egg layer as the original old hen fly was. As a rule in the beginning of the fly season the house is more infested with the male fly than it is with the female fly, because the females are busy outdoors depositing their eggs in suitable places.
The Fannia Scalaris
The Fatina Scalaris.
This species of fly is known as the latrine fly. It is a more dangerous insect than the common domestic fly, for the reason that it breeds in human defecta and becomes a very common carrier of typhoid fever. These flies deposit their eggs in fresh and decaying meat, in carcass flesh, or living flesh, and in the nostrils of animals.
The Ancient View of the Fly.
In ancient times the insect fly was thought to be perfectly harmless. It was thought to be a necessary nuisance or pest divinely created. It was believed that the fly was divinely created to act as a scavenger and they were tolerated as a necessary nuisance for the preservation of the human species. We know better now. We know that flies are the most dangerous enemies of mankind. We know that the fly is a veritable disease carrier and spreader.
In the first place, we know that flies are dirty insects; that they carry all kinds of filth matter on their feet, legs and body; that they eat typhoid germs and tuberculosis germs, but they do not destroy these germs, nor do they render them harmless to human beings. The fly does not limit its activities to one disease, but they are active in distributing many diseases. If the flies want is to get hold of the disease matter and they are just as willing to murder a darling baby as a grown man, they will crawl into the mouth of the sheeping baby and deposit their death-dying poison. It is a fact that one fly can infect 800,000 to 6,000,000 germs and that one of these under favorable conditions can create within four hours 16,500,000 germs.
Dr. Arthur Murray of the District health department, Washington, D.C. describes the deadly house fly in the following manner: "The flies, the flies, the pesky flies, they crawl upon the bread and pies and on each bite of food we eat they wine their nasty, dirty feet. They buzz around defying foes; they dance upon your face and nose and then without apparent fear, they dig a tunnel in your ear. They light upon your hairless head at early dawn when you're abed. They fly and frolic everywhere and make the housewife almost swear. They get mixed up in the ralpin cake and everything they try to make. They drop down in the coffee cup and in the lasses get mixed up. With nimble feet and active wing, they leave their germs on everything.
Screen Your Home and Swat the Fly. How do you know, Mr. Reader, where that fly that has just dropped into your tea, coffee or milk for a little swim, has been? We dare say,

If you did know you would have but little respect for the fly's taste and would refuse to eat that with which it has come in contact. The one thing to do—and that you can do—out of the source of supply by eliminating the food supply and the hatcheries. If you are so unfortunate as to have manure on your premises, use green vitriol for killing the maggots. Prof. Hodge of Clark University states that no less than one hundred thousand deaths occur yearly as a result of activity of files, and that the damage done amounts to twelve million ($12 000,000) dollars; and that the time will come when it will be considered more disgraceful to have files in our home than to have bed burgs.
The doors, windows and all places where food stuffs are kept or sold, should be carefully screened. But screen your home as you may some files will get into your home and do much harm unless you promptly kill them. You should become a swatter and join the swatting popular movement. You can secure a little wire swatter for a nominal sum or often for the asking. You will find it a very effective weapon, and with the swatter you should use some sort of poison to aid in the additional killing of files. A very good simple mixture is made by taking half a pint of water and half a pint of milk, into which put two tablespoonfuls of fromalhydride. This mixture in a shallow dish will two or three small squares of bread. It is best to place this mixture a receptacle just outside of the kitchen door so as to catch and kill the files before they get into the house. This mixture can also be placed inside if desired, but remember that it is poisonous and should be placed out of the reach of children. As to dogs and cats, you may use your own judgment, for in many instances, they are a mansion and should be muzzled throughout the year for the reason that a human is of greater importance to a community than the life of a dog or a cat. It is everybody's business to see to it that our community life is made safe and comfortable. No one person in our community can do this, but by co-operation everybody working together—can.
DEFENDER'S
LEGAL HELPS
Work of New Law
Defender's Legal Helps--I have been a voter in this state for many years and at each election of judges of the Circuit Court I have always voted for fourteen candidates but this time there were twenty; how does it happen that there are so many more this time than heretofore? There is a new law adding to the Circuit Cook County six additional judges and fourteen and six made the twenty voted for and elected.
Up to the Society
Defender's Legal Helps.—A friend of mine died some time ago and I was named as beneficiary in the endowment policy in a fraternal so we have sent the claim in and may proof required but the society retu to pay the claim as it states that I not within the beneficial class. What can I do to collect the money?
Answer: Every fraternal society has the right to have certain classes of persons as a beneficial class, and can refuse to recognize any and all persons, although named as beneficiaries, who are not within the class as designated.
Stolen Goods.
Defender's Legal Helps--I pawned a watch which I bought from a man on the street and allowed it to remain in pawn for 10 days; when I went for the same the pawnbroker told me he had the watch and received my money for the same, but after getting my money he informed me that the detectives had taken from him the watch as stolen property and he refused to give me my money back. Have I any remedy against the broker?
Answer: Stolen property may be taken wherever found, and that is one among reasons for not buying articles of personal property from persons on the streets who whom we are not acquainted. You should party from whom you bought the watch and unless he refunds your money you should inform the police who will no doubt be glad to get the information.
