(Special to Chicago Defender.) Hot Spings, April, Jan. 14—Walter A.Seymour, a peaceful and law-abiding citizen, well known to all for his manly and gendal character and disposition, flawed as a man to whom we might impute not a single wrong, kind to all, a friend to children, and a murdered in our streets by a cowardly assassin without cause or provocation.

He made up to the attack in self-defense, and was in act of leaving when the fatal shot was fired by Wil Holmes, the proprietor, EUGENE V. DEBS FLAYS BIG MOVIE Four Millin Mutuales. There are many mutuales in this country, most of whom were born out of weelock and/or of whom have a white father or grandfather, and these were light at the drop of the hat for "white supremacy" against "higher equality." The pretended reference for Lincoln in the facts of history was with the facts of history, Lincoln was with a savage hate of the slave-owners of the south, and it was this ferocious attitude that animated in its possession, and on the stage is a convenient mask behind the same blind hate may vent itself upon the unoffending Negro. Shindles Eglipation. Let it shindles. All that our histories have been written by white men and that Negroes had no hand in men and that simply had to take what we given them. We are no denying the fact that from the time the Negroes were first stolen from them and by white slave-traders when they came in, they till the last law disfranchising them in the south was put into effect and the car put into commission to attest the race stock, the whole history of the treatment of the Negro race is one of shame and degradation, for which the white race can never stone in time nor eternity. If the black people today could tell their story about "The Birth of a Nation," it would be replete with scenes LYNCHING SPIRIT THREATENS GEORGIA Race Men Organize to Defend the Repelling Mob Attack—More Determination to Protect Its Women.

Dallas, Texas, Jan. 14. The city commissioners and other city officials attended a meeting at the Runk school here in opposition to the meetings that have been the leading members of the race against the whites segregation law that the whites would have passed. The local organizations of the race have drafted resolutions to the mayor against the pro-immunism. The object of the meeting was to affirm that the white southerners want to keep the race from buying in decent neighborhoods. Commissioner Lang urged that harsh actions might bring forth serious results. Didn't Fight for Slaves. The vice-commander of the G. A. R. spoke, saying that he did not fight for the shives; that he fought to save the Union. He said that he would not fight the audience, yet he claimed that the race should be grateful to him. For what, we would like to know. He probably fought because he was drafted. The commissioner said the side of the question in a few days. WORLD'S OLDEST ACTOR SAM LUCAS DEAD The Daddy of Them All Passes Away In New York. WITHDRAWALS CAUSED BANK TO CLOSE DOORS President of the Institution Hopes to Pay All Depositors in Full. False Rumors Partly Responsible for Failure. Gives a Few Facts to the Public. NO WILD SCENES People Orderly and Have Great Confidence in Affairs of Bank. Withdrawals in One Day More Than Bank Could Stand. A Statement by Official Could Have Avoided Crash. Montgomery, Aln., Jan. 14.—Mr. J. O. Diffay, president of the Alabama Penny Prudential Savings Bank, which closed on Monday, will be a proud member that all depositors will be paid in full. Contrary to the reports that circulated this country that the bank had a run and all the depositors were not present, the officials could not prevent simply came and drew their amounts and went their way; everything was in a quiet way. Could Not Prevent Failure. The causes of the failure were things that directors or the officials could not prevent, but understand that this has been a trying year, when under financial depression it is hard to make loans, which in a final decision can make profits. Feeling that may obtain and help to maintain a spirit of confidence in the future. This condition will always be more severe upon institutions who have access to the bank, during the whole year the officials and directors of the bank have been straightening out things that would place the bank in a more secure way to forecast this move. An annulation branches cost an outlay of $18,000. However, we approached the holidays with as much cash as usual and no way to forecast this move. We expected a larger withdrawal than at other times. An incident happened that caused the Christmas savings clubs to withdraw all their money in order of leaving a portion of it in as usual. One Employe Short. "Perhaps the mistake was made by not having made a statement on the matter at the time. In time of a crisis one cannot always foretell what action would have been taken if one had the prophetic insight to know what should be liberally and with the desire to treat all fairly, and to do the best thing for the interest of the bank. On examination it was found that one employee was short of the necessary shorts and the dividual was dismissed and the shortage made good. Perhaps an official statement on this matter would have quieted things and put the whole matter at rest. (Continued on page 4.) REEVEY RUN OVER BY WAGON: DIES Extonount, N. J., Jan. 14—Chas. S.

New York City, Jan. 14.—That Major Moton is being praised by the press of this country upon election as President of Tuskegee Institute, is evidenced by the brilliant editorial of the ill-filmed editor of the New York Evening日报. Materialis of this nature have reached here from all parts of the country, but the one being is the best symbology of Major Moton's character and life work. It follows: "The election of Major R. R. Moton, of Hampton Institute, as head of Tuscaloosa to succeed Dr. Booker T. Washington, is a keenly felt the loss of the friends of Negro education caused by Major Moton has well earned this position by his admirable work for Hampstead, where he keenly feel the loss of his services. An admirable achievement by the Washington type, with a thorough understanding of conditions in South and Southern white people, Major Moton has been better equipped for the great task he has summed. Like Dr. Washington, he has made his way up from small beginning, his predecessor, he has given his whole life to Hampton, where his tact, his self-subsistence and his never-failing patience and good humor early attracted attention to him. Interesting to note that Major Moton is interesting to note that who in his new position will, like Richard W. Wright, of the Savannah Industrial school, and many others, give the lie to the many mutant advances to responsible institutions. As it is, there is now every assurance that Tuskegee will go on with as slight a break in leadership as possible, the right successor to Major Moton, it will be the right successor to Major Moton, it will be the right successor to proof of the ability of the colored people to develop high and worthy leadership."

A MORTUARY MIXUP The Dissolution of McGavock & Parks Meant Something After All—Fixtures Moved Late in the Night—State Street Is Shocked Over Incident. When the notice of the dissolution of the partnership of McGivock & Parks, undertakers, at 316 State Street, was taken, the firm was the forerunner of a series of events that has caused more genuine amusement than anything that has happened in the past. For the past few weeks there had been trouble brewing between the two members of the firm, one putting the responsibility on the other and the other refusing to "meet the man" on anything but a strictly partnership basis. So when the unsympathetic gas man took the bill in one hand and a monkeyy assistant in both stood pat on their ideas, and as a consequence when the gas man left to took the firm's gas with him, McGivock was the first man who adults to 115 pounds without his shoes, but who is possessed of tons of energy, remarked: "Without gas I can't this firm can go along any further." Torks, who is famous for his quick wit, add in a dreamy way: dreams where's not a planet, but a table where that gas turned off"—just like that, and casting on big his ulter, left it all with Well, the writer's Christian spirit will not permit him to repeat what Parks said: "The atmosphere for the next hour, and it is safe to say that before the case is finally settled there will be plenty of high-chair entertainment furnished for the audience. Here the Defender is neutral, although we will await with interest the reply to Jake's leading question: where in h — did he hide that body?" WITHDRAWAL CAUSED BANK FAILURE. (Continued from page 1.) "The statement was not made because it would have been perfectly obvious to everyone to vote at the time. The rumors gained in magnitude as they spread and set to unrest burdened the depositors. The shortest run gave twelve times the amount, which barely reached four hundred dollars. These rumors worked underground to persuade who could not vote to vote. Neither did the depositors, but the man who lost his position because of dishonesty was the loser. The people could not vote because they slow and steady run was made on the bank, coupled with the withdrawal of the Christmas savings of the clubs and funds. It must also be borne in mind that the African Episcopal Zion Church, through Rev. J. S. Jackson, a church member, posted a postpository for their cash, had, without a moment's notice, withdrawn $15,000. We are not making any expression on the matter that the officials and directors of the faithful aim, and had they been able to have saved the institution they would have really have done so. It is desired that the depositors be public know there is nothing to hide." APPOMATTOX CLUB RENDERS PROGRAM Duduth, Minn., Jan. 14.—The Appointment Social Club rendered a program G. Abrahams 115 F.

ONE ALDERMAN FOR SECOND WARD Hon. Oscar De Priest Making Splendid Representative—Race Satisfied with One of Its Members in City Council from Second and Ward—If Others Want to Be Aldermen They Must Come from Other Wards. NEW MOVEMENT ON. Chicago Defender Refuses to Sanction Two Race Aldermen from Same Ward —Overzealous Politicians About to Kill Goose Which Llad Golden Egg. Last spring with the assistance of the regular Republican machine and the solid vote of the race Oscar De Prest was elected alderman of the Second City of Chicago a race historian of the city of Chicago a race must be elected to that position. We as a race were proud. Now there is a movement on foot to out up another race in the city. We have a political debt to pay and a man in the machine we must work on a fifty-fifty basis with our white brothers who worked with us. We must help elect and if possible see the machine is elected. When our present term is up we will wint another one in his place—maybe he himself again. We cannot expect the white man's help again from the ward. We cannot hope to do if the present movement goes ahead. It must be killed in its infancy. We must kill it. We need help last spring, and we need to render us as a matter of principle. An alderman of the race from another ward is all right, but two from the Second Ward—not now. The Defender will not impose any movement to put forth another candidate in the field at this time. DR W.

DEBS FLAYS "BIRTH OF NATION" (Continued from Page 1.) indefinitely more enriched and damning than those based upon Dixon's novel and flashed upon the screen to conceal the white man's crimes behind the Negro's misfortune. Klan Glorified. The Ku-Ku-Klan are glorified in the pictures as spatless knights, the persecutors of the Negro, and the audience applauds mildly as they dash to the rescue of some imaginary white victim of a black flanders, but careless rages perpetrated upon defenseless, unoffending Negroes by these same lawless, night-riders, moving the scenes about the polling places on election day, under Negro domination, are especially calculated to subject the Negro to ridicule and contempt and the white audience to anger and the white appreciation by its snores and cheers. If the white race has demonstrated its "superiority" in any one thing, it is in its politics and elections, and if Ned Friarscan, the evident purpose of Dismantling the evidence of their disgraceful conduct at the polls, then by the same token white men join them in making the ballot and driven from the polling place. The chief commercial statistics exhibited at the close of the play to show the success made by the Negro race is by a weak vote in the insults heaped upon that race. Intelligent Negroes will not be deceived. The success they have made is mainly due to the success they have made in the white race as a whole save their exploitation and degradation. Must Depend on Selves. Let them depend upon themselves, to do for themselves, and to win their own way in the world. When they cut loose from the world, they become how to as pawns in the political game, and ward one of their number with a split-tone-cleaning job in recognition of their world. When they begin in earnest to educate themselves, develop their minds and do their own thinking, they will then command the world race and of the world, but not before. --- SAN FRANCISCO FIGHTS "BIRTH OF NATION" (Continued from page 1.) tall. That part of the scene where he strokes her naked shoulders and his feelings are seen to be aroused thereby must be taught. 3. The brutality of the guerrillas in the Cameroon house in the scene in which the women take refuge in the cellar in too tightly confined out and more overdone. A portion of the scene of wanton violence should be cut. 4. The scene in the legislature showing the buffoonery of Negroes taking off of shoelaces and overplayed, and is therefore casually offensive to colored people. 5. Guew chase of the girl is far too longing and takes her on the cliff and on the mouth like an animal must be eliminated. This is absolutely offensive to the moral secrecy. 6. In the mob scene towards the end, just before the K, K, K's arrive, Negroes are shown grabbing up white women, fondling and kissing them. This part must be taught. 7. The struggle scenes between Lunch and Miss Stomane are too frequently finished and in too much detail. They should be pruned and shortened. Please use the supporting changes Nos. 1, 3, 4, and 7 as in our judgment necessary to make the picture offensive on all sides, but that change should be mandatory, as far as this board is concerned. Other than the items above mentioned, there was no objection to the picture, though we had to admit that it would be in somewhat questionable taste.

NOTICE TO CLUBS Matter sent to this office by reporters subjected to changes by the club editor. Durham, S. C., Jan. 14—The opinion of the University Commission on Southern Race Question at the closing of its session here on the question of lynching in the state of South Carolina, by the people of the country. The commission urges all colleges to do their part towards creating a sentiment that will abolish lynch law and details the problem of lynching in the state. The concession in the right direction, but not half the consideration the question needs. There is only one way to destroy lynch law. The ballot in the hands of the people of the state will render his race, and an honest count will render it unnecessary for colleges to act. BISHOP B. F. LEE VISITS SIOUX CITY.

As he appears to The Office Boy—A large fat being whose grumble is worse, than Jove's thunder and whose commendatory nod is worth almost any amount of personal inconvenience.

Aztecs Favored Turquoise At the time of the Spanish conquest under Cortez, the Aztecs of old Mexico employed turquoise and "chachitluit," a similar stone of greenish hue, in many of their ceremonies. These Spaniards, entering the region now occupied by New Mexico and Arizona, found the turquoise there also held in high regard, and recent excavations in the ancient pueblos and cliff dwellings of these states have revealed many turquoise ornaments which reflect credit upon artistic ability of those early workers. Cultivate Your Talent One little talent on which you concentrate your energies, generally means far more in a practical way than the half dozen gifts which jylde your attention among them. For practical purposes it is easy to be too highly endowed. One talent with all the energy of your nature back of it, will put you in a place where you will not need to envy anyone. Daily Thought. This seems to me a great truth, in any exile or chaos whatsoever, that sorrow was not given us for sorrow's sake, but always and infailably as a lesson to us from which we are to learn somewhat, and which, the somewhat once learned, ceases to be sorrow.—Thomas Carlyle.

The bout between Battling Ball and Earl Murphy pitted a C. cooled crowd or Ball and the Future a crowded field who came to see this fight, and they got their money's worth, for it was the hardest eight-round fight that this city has ever seen. The fighters took lots of punishment. In the second round Ball started shooting left and rights to Murphy's jaw, sending him to the floor. Murphy regained his feet long enough for Ball to flatten him out for the count of six. Again in the sixth Ball sent him to the floor. Murphy's actions are much like Joe Gans, the world's greatest and cleanest fighter, when in the ring. Mr. Lindsay will back him against any of the so-called lightning strikes who are cleanest fighter. He is well thought of in this city and will draw a crowded house.

Letter to Mother: An East side woman remained in a polling booth so long someone went in to see what was the matter, says the Independence Reporter. She was writing a letter and explained: "It is so nice and quiet in here with no one to bother me that I'm writing a letter to mother. She thinks it is terrible for women to vote, but I just told her it is not. I don't want to be with the children, who climb all over me when I attempt to write."—Kansas City Star. Teaching Birds to Sing. To teach a young bird to sing it is necessary to place it in a private compartment, so there is no opportunity for play. Each of the young birds are caged in this manner and in the center of the entire cage is placed the old bird. The little ones pick up the notes given forth by the old bird and in a short time are singers themselves. Prepinguity Breeds Discontent discontent. A wise philosophy has been that two persons, unless they are a man and woman violently in love, can live intimately together for ten years without hating each other. The unconscious defect of one's character, his little whims and crochets, his pet theories or his darling hobbies, are sometimes the instrument of slow torture by which a man murders his wife. Words Change Meaning Our great-granddads often referred to their overcrude as "hangups." This word has a different meaning now, just as "slump" was used at Harvard 70 years ago to denote a funk by a student. Now it is commonly employed to denote a big recession in the price of stocks.

LAURIE ALLEN BECOMES INTERNE AT BIG HOSPITAL DR. LAURIE ALLEN BECOMES INTERNE AT BIG HOSPITAL Provident Interne First Assistant Physician at Milwaukee County Hospital—Is a Graduate of Northwestern Medical University. (Special to Chicago Defender.) (Special B "Chicago Defender") morning, Dr. Laurie Lee Allen, a member of the race and one of the best-trained physicians and surgeons of the West walked in the Wilkinson County hospital, the first assistant surgeon at the hospital. The position was opened to the best man available—one who could make a difference in the lives of specialists in tuberculosis. Dr. Allen took the examination, made the highest average. The Northwestern Medical Center had a graduate and under such a fine record that he a splendid endorsement. He was appointed and Monday started on his duties with ease and best wishes of his colleagues. This is the first time in the history of the state that a member of the race has held such a position. The first four hours he was pleasing to the doctor, and he has won friends from the start. Highly Trained Physician, Dr. H. L. McKenzie, graduated physician. He finished 1913 in Northwestern Medical University and stood in his class as an exceptional student. He was known as the students' favorite teacher, and he bred by the members of the faculty as a brilliant young man. In 1914 he became an interne at Provident Hospital, where he was surgeon-in-chief at that institution, was one of the best-equipped men to take a year's training there. While at the institution he attended tuberculosis and at the institution here he will have charge of that department at the Milwaukee County Hospital. With excellent qualifications, he excelled as a new doctor to those afflicted with "white plague." The Long Trail The search for the elixir of life and the philosopher's stone has been abandoned, but the hunt for some kind of objection continues.—Washington Star, President Wilson's policy of watchful waiting on all nations and nationalities that can fight back and crushing "that country" (7) is our countrymen before the eyes of the civilized world as one of the huge jokes of the twentieth century. 100,000 Lynched. Just within the lifetime of Booker T. Washington there has been over 100,000 men, women and children put to death by the white gentlemen, over 100,000 women, by the black women, by the men. Yet here, when only nineteen men are killed by Mexicans the state government is about to have a fit. If we did not kill them, we would not maintain, then why try to fight for something much inferior.

CLARICE ROBERTS DEAR (By Crawford L. Robinson.) Resented Typewritten Letter A catalogue of farming implements sent out by a manufacturer finally found its way to a remote village, where it was evidently welcomed with interest. The firm received a carefully written, if somewhat clumsily expressed, letter, asking further particulars about one of the articles advertised to this, in the usual course of business, of a farmer's swarm. Almost by return of post came a reply: "You need not print your letter to me. I can read writing." Those Noisy Musicians During the concert a man who really appreciated music for its own sake was greatly annoyed by a young fop in front of him who kept talking to the girl at his side. "What a nuisance!" finally exclaimed the appreciative man. "Do you refer to me, sir?" threateningly demanded the fop. "Oh, no. I meant the musicians. They keep up with them with their instruments that I can't hear half your brilliant conversation." Saw Business Opportunity. "The musician will cost $200 per." "Do you find people willing to pay such prices?" "Plenty of them." "In that case, what will you take for the hotel?"—Judge. Rings of Saturn. Recent spectroscopic analysis of Saturn's rings indicates that they are composed of solid matter, probably dust, that is, nebular matter which has passed through its liquid to solid form, and is now furnishing that planet with a dustlike material similar to that of the earth during the quaternary period.

RATHER SPOILED THE EFFECT Lawyer's Elogent Address Nullified When His Opponent Related a Little Fable. A barrister who was possessed of an unusually loud voice was making an eloquent address to a jury. His case was fairly strong, and his appearance made the ratters ring. The jury looked thoughtful and much impressed. The opposing barrister inad face like a hatchet and a thin, low voice. He began: "As I listened to the thunderous appeals of my learned opponent I recalled a fable. A lion and an ass entered into a compact to clay the beasts of the field and share the spoils. The ass was to go into the thicket and bray and frighten the animals out, while the lion was to lie in wait and kill the fugitives. Well, the ass sought the darkest part of the jungle, and, lifting up his awful voice, brayed and brayed and brayed. The ass was intoxicated with his own uprare and thought he'd return to see what the lion thought of it. He found the lion pale in the face and trembling. "What do you think of that for braying?" said the ass. "Don't you think I scared them?" Scared them? repeated the lion in an agitated tone. Why, you'd have scared me if I didn't know you were a jackass!" Another's Lot. The other girl's lot is pretty sure to seem preferable to yours, is it not? He charms shine with a brighter luster, the drawbacks shrink in insignificance, as we regard it. Yet nine out of ten of the people who envy their neighbors would be rendered unhappy by an exchange.

Press it into the leaking part of the pipe, and put on sufficient to make the hole airight.

Please send me THE CHICAGO DEFENDER A Fearless Honest Champion of The People for and for which I enclose Name Subject The Robert Elliott Court, Ancient Order of Foresters, has made a step that will allow them to follow. At the regular Meeting Monday night day it was voted to remove $6,400 from the Illinois Trust and Savings Bank, which owns the bank and to put it in the Corn Exchange National Bank, which gives employment to two men and three girls. The money they receive will be used to buy din, Forebred and Hudock. This move is one that the Defender has been fighting for. The people must patronize those Foresters to ensure that the Foresters will move the rent of their $75,000 in a short time. If the rest of the Foresters will follow the example of the Foresters for more young men and girls would be given a chance of obtaining better positions at the bank during the year.

WILSON-THAT'S ALL. BE THING CERTAIN: Should Presidio notes that the members of our race were over, would not make a Jersey mosque, nor would we make a mosque, said that we are ignorant enough to usually it dawns on us when we have persuasion can change our minds. She has made a record in the matter of her equaled and perhaps never will. If we do not make a mosque, particular people and that he would rather, and all during his candidacy for not discriminate, these assurances of support of the policy in government affairs, great distress in the departments over which the President administration the policy was pursued by vacancy created by the resignation, our race.

We have in mind our support with any other party can; and let it be said to our child Democrats have taught us- have in turn. The low who may stick to the reservation of the South is cut, as is our population, the voice of this "soild not be heard on the Mason and a laddy patient, but alert, and ready one's notice. There is something we want it before the store closes. THERE IS ONE THING CERTAIN: Should President Wilson run for a second term the votes that the members of our race would give him, taking the entire country over, would not make a Jersey mosquito humpbacked to carry. There are a great many things that can be said about us, but it cannot be truthfully said that we are ignorant enough to let the same fame scorch our minds. We have enough of a thing and an amount of perspiration can change our minds. Our President has made a record in the matter of race discrimination that has never been equaled and perhaps never will. In his speech at Independence Hall, Philadelphia, July 4, 1914, he said he would set up no barriers against any particular people and that he would treat one race the same as he did another, and all during his candidacy for President he gave an explanation of the reasons for his decision. Notwithstanding these assurances of support of the principles of equality before the law and in government affairs, great discrimination has been practiced not only in the departments over which the President has direct control, but also in appointments that are made by the President himself. Under Republican administration the policy was pursued of appointing a colonel to fill a vacancy created by his resignation, death or expiration of a man of our race. How this policy has been carried out under Democratic control, and how it has been carried here, it was a case of the race "raised out" with a vengeance. "There always comes that day of reckoning, and while the Democrats beautifully chide they do not want, nor would they have the Negro vote, without it they will bite the dust forever. We have nothing to lose and all to gain by throwing our support with any other party—Progressive, Prohibition or Republican; and let it be said to our chuld, we have learned the lesson of the past and have graduated from their ill treatment that is accorded them. When the representation of the South is cut, as it will be, according to the actual voting population, the voice of this "solid session" will be so feeble that it will not be heard above the Mason and Dixon line. It is up to us to sit in the saddle痛巾, but alert, and ready to die in the spurs and hurt at a second's notice. There is something worth while in store for us, and we must get it before the store closes. SCHOOLS IN SOUTH CAROLINA. **AROLINA** the proportion is more the schooling for each child in favor of the dark man in a permanent future at share actually doing justice to the ignorant without injury to himself, wealth? The best training to fit him the intelligent had excellent labor is absurd or any other kind of work. Their affairs that permits the expenditure public schools and' but $1.93 for each ams as much for the poor as for the compliant to the dark man when they admit, that. IN SOUTH CAROLINA the proportion is more than eight to one in expenditures for schooling for each child in favor of the whites. When it is a settled fact that the dark man is a permanent fixture, are these people who take the lion's share actually doing justice to themselves? Can the black man remain ignorant without injury to himself, his white neighbors and to the common people? We have the best training to fit him to do the work that is open to him? Intelligent and efficient labor is absolutely necessary to diversified agriculture or any other kind of work. There can be no defence for this condition of affairs that permits the expenditure of $16.22 for each white child in the public schools and but $1.93 for each colored child—or more than eight times as much for the white as the colored child. This might be construed as a flattering comment, but $1.93 for each colored child needs much money spent on their education to obtain the same results a colored child does with one-eighth the sum. The state made an interesting examination of the census and other reports recently from which was drawn the conclusion that the colored people have been paying in taxes, direct and indirect, for school supply fully as much as their schools receive. This examination disregarded the general truth that taxes on real estate in the main will yield a fair return a hoge or a farm—is used at a sum that will yield the landlord a fair return. Again 133 days is the average session of the white schools, while the colored schools have a session of only 63 days. Similar conditions prevail in other southern States, and yet they expect ignorance to disappear more rapidly. There is something radically wrong with the average Southerner's way of reasoning his mind is dwarfed and twisted to out of all of him something far out of the use he is needed to a sense of humor. The war, the war, deplorable as it would be, be the thing needs. What he the use, the awakening must come, and let it come quickly. THE LABOR QUESTION. WIND that blows no one good, and the deplorable as it is, has caused the roses to prosper greatly in a financial year who ago were dependent upon the real reasons why this state of emergency class have heard the call to arms to a leaving vacancies that must be filled endous demand for all kinds of comps have been taxed to their utmost Labor is getting scarcer and scarcer an have been pressed into service and man and woman we shall be required and no line of endear that we cann含 mills, mills and workshops that have are being opened to us. We are to but because it is expedient. Prejudice is not the reason to be, now our opportunity the call. It is significant the gck man to leave his old-home and co prospects are bright for the future. we are gradually edging in first this before making a place for our broth understanding between the races, other, so why not live in peace? IT IS AN ILL WIND that blows no one good, and the European war, as bloody, tragic and deplorable as it is, has caused the groups of this and other neutral countries to prosper greatly in a financial way. It has meant that the thousands who a year ago were dependent upon charity are today embroiled and making a comfortable living for themselves and their families. The fact that they are not able to afford the lands of the laboring class have heard the call to arms and have returned to their own country, leaving vacancies that must be filled. Second, the war has created a tremendous demand for all kinds of commodities. Mills factories and workshops have been taxed to their utmost to meet the ever-increasing demand. Labor is getting scarcer and scarcer every day. All of the old available men have been pressed into service and the still cry is for the laborers to work. On the wrong side of the balance sheet. The colored man and woman are and must be for some years to come laborers. There is no line of endeavor that we cannot fit ourselves for. These same factories, mills and workshops that have been closed to us through necessity are being opened to us. We are to be given a chance, not through choice but because it is expedient. Prejudice vanishes when the dollar is on the wrong side of the balance sheet. Whatever the reason, it is the best that is in us when we answer the call. It is significant the great west is calling to the southern black man to leave his old-home and come out there to till the soil where the prospects are bright for the future. Slowly but all over this country we are gradually edging in first and then place, getting a foothold before making a place for our brother. By this means the prospect is more likely to merely a question of a better and a closer understanding between the races. We are Americans and must live together, so why not live in peace. FRESH AIR. ATION of the modern feeling about all and "L" lines where coaches are run full up, and what is more the people such a thing as going to the extreme and know enough to bundle up suffer contracting a cold from the winters but fright of all people we know about by 70 they fear the least attention to shiver the moment the thief look around crossly to see if someone back. These are the kind of people are worse than hot-house plants. men who work in offices and stores who walts and expect their working plan or August. While my lady who attends as little as the law allows through the door, I want more of them. Such indirections are enough. John the fresh air advocates, it is the of youth. AN ILLUSTRATION of the modern feeling about fresh air is seen in the city surface and "L" lines where coaches are run the cold weather with the windows full up, and what is more the people seem to enjoy them. Of course there is such a thing as going to the extreme but for those who are physically well and know enough to bundle up sufficiently there is absolutely no danger of contracting a cold from the winter blasts. There are a lot of people who are fussy about fresh air. Even with temperate weather they are not afraid of drafts. They begin to shiver the moment the thermometer gets down around 72. They look around crossly to see if someone has left a window open by a small crack. These are the kind of people who are first to get the "sniffers" and are worse than hot-house plants. Our young women who work in offices and stores on the bleakest days films summer walks and expect their working place to be as warm as the weather in July or August. While my lady who attends fashionable dinners and balls, wear as little as the law allows through every season, then the next few hours finds her wrapped in furs or more heavily clad, sitting in the sun. Such indiscretions are enough to ruin the health of a marble statue. Join the fresh air advocates, it is the one way to drink from the fountain of youth. SHORT OF BRAIN8 O W. H.

We learn of learning in the conference given an equal opportunity, standards. This being so there is but one deprived Mr. Pyle is right.

It be done to hold us in our place, we own, own beautiful homes, have substantial and compete with the superior (2) of our peers. We have just drifted into the hulk of forgiveness to keep on. Evidently it is a dang much brain as the other fellow. ACCORDING TO W. H. Pyle of the University of Missouri, colored children have three-fourths or four-fifths the learning capacity of white children. Just how Mr. Pyle arrived at such a definite conclusion the American Psychological Association, at whose meeting the statement was made, might be able to enlighten an anxious public. The head of almost any seat of learning in the country will admit the color status when given an equal opportunity, stands if not among the first in his class, but but I will agree to be made, agreeing also that Mr. Pyle is right. The colored student is fourths as much brain as the white student to surpass him in learning. It is said "figures don't lie." We sympathize with our white brother and understand why he attempts to place barrier after barrier in the way of our progress, it is a matter of self-preservation. Something must be done to hold us in our place, we have the audacity to get higher education, own beautiful homes, have substantial business houses, over every profession and compete with the superior (?) race in every line of life, it is wrong because it peeps some of our good enemies. But somehow we have just learned that of forging ahead and don't know any better than to keep on. Evidently it is a dangerous thing to have only four-fifths as much brain as the other fellow. REV.

To him had been given the task of gathering back into the church, and he was the first to perform his sacred duty it is given for the many benefited to attend. A patient, tireless worker was Father Massiah; his helpful hand went far beyond the confines of his church—the Home for Aged and Infirm Colored People, the Y. M. C.

It is but natural, it is but human, and yet why should we not rejoice that Divine Providence gave him to us so many years before claiming him for eternity. We have been the gainer by his coming. His mission has been fulfilled. His answer of "read" Maker's call was acceptable, so the earthly chapter of his Life was closed.

The New York Evening Post says of it editorially: "It could hardly be improved upon. It is brisk, orderly, optimistic. The various activities of the league are set forth in a way to impart knowledge without worrying the reader; the financial needs are stated; plans for the coming year are laid out in a lucid and cheer way. It is, in short, a very model of what such publications are trying to do; the moral and financial support of all good citizens regardless of race for in their effort to improve the conditions of their own race they are lifting the burden from the whites as well.

Married men need not sign their PAPER SAYS there is no need of a pocket, and if they were interested couldn't do it. Speaking from this dist IT MIGHT BE a little inconvenient for people living in fairs to attempt to raise a pig, and too the health department might raise an objection, but there is money in the business as has been proven by Ed. Scott of Bryan, Texas, who purchased a pig last spring paying $2.50 for him and when it was killed a few days ago it entailed 298 pounds, with profits as follows: One pig and six-light pounds of meat at 10 cents, $1.80; eight pounds of sausage at 12 cents, $4.50; 80 pounds of bird at 15 cents, $12.00; total $3.60; cost of raising the pig, including purchase price, $12.50; net profit $21. Question: If it costs a farmer $1.25 to keep a pig in the country a year, how much will a city chip to keep a "chicken" the same length of time in the city? N. B.-Married men need not sign their names in sending answers. A SOUTHERN PAPER SAYS there is no need of a colored man carrying a gun in his hip pocket, and if they were interested in the development of their race they wouldn't do it. Speaking from this distance we agree with the southern editor, but if it isn't asking too much why not deprive the "colonels"—understanding as we do that every white man down there is a colonel—of their firearms as well? There is so much talk lately about in time of peace prepare for war that the poor colored man cannot, be blamed for looking out for number one before he does the government. WHO EVER HEARD of a prodigal daughter being welcomed home? The son can return after living a life of debauchery and be received with open arms, while the fatted calf is cooked and served to his liking. Something is radically wrong with our social codes, for what is good for the goose should be good for the gander. IT IS TO BE HOPED that good white friends will not be buncoed into putting their money in any "humoral" for Booker T. Washington, outside the confines of Tuskegee Institute proper. There, and only there, can the best results be obtained. OCONOMOWOC PEOPLE need have no more sleepless nights, Draper Hall, the famous old summer hotel, is not to be sold to a syndicate of "US" after all, a Mr. DeBower has purchased the property and will open it as a military academy for boys. HURRAH FOR ST. LOUIS! In their campaign to raise funds for the proposed Y. M. C. A. they were asked to raise $50,000 of the $150,000 but went them one better, making their contribution $68,947. Five thousand of this was given by one race man. Chicago should blush for shame. IP REPORTS ARE TO BE BELIEVED, both warring factions have about annihilated each other. In that event the war should soon come to a close. NOW THAT THE NEW YEAR is well under way perhaps we can settle down and make things hum; there is still plenty of room at the top or the climbers. THE PROBHITIONISTS want the tax on manufactured alcohol issued to $1,000 a gallon. This slight increase would force the topper to pay $2.2 a drink for whiskey. ANYWAY we are looking to reward to spring, even if it is some new months on, January in an imaginary now and then slipping in a warm day to PUT HEALTH IN FIRST PLACE Present:Generation of Youth in Many Ways an Improvement Over Those of the Past. Our young, people in their habits and tastes cherish and crave, and admire health with a devotion unparalleled since the days of the Greeks, writes Francis Greenwood Peabody in his field and of the wild, the inoculation of early childhood with the fever of athletes, and the enormous distinction obtained by strength, agility and pluck—even the unprecedented can-do literature and conversation with the chivalric and feminism—all these signs of the time, though they may involve new risks, unquestionably free young people in large degree from the introspection, sentimentality, morbid conducuntionsness, predilusness and purported erasures. Fearless, self-confidence, even audacity, issue from this healthiness. Nothing is too personal to be mentioned; nothing too startling to be welcomed; nothing too sacred to be understood. The trait is sickness, either of body or of mind. Strong doctrine, naked truth, undisguised convictions, are marks of the cult of healthness, and the resultant type of youth is one which cannot be observed without admiration; it matches an athlete stripped for his strength. OPPORTUNITY TO GET EVEN Farmer Had It In His Heart to Do Unto Others that it Had Been Done Unto Him. Here is a good motor story: A farmer strolled into a motor sales house, "What's that worth?" he asked, pointing to a small car. "Five hundred dollars," was the reply. "And that?" pointing to a better car. "Seven hundred and fifty dollars." "And that there one?" pointing to a seven-passenger with a jerk of his thumb. "That one is a fine car and is worth twelve hundred dollars." "It take it," said the farmer. "That it earn, you know," said the salesman. "Yes, I got the money," said the farmer, as he pulled a roll of bills out of his pocket, peeled off twelve one-hundred-dollar bills, and paid for the car. "Now, you'll show me how to drive the critter?" " Sure," said the salesman, "that's a problem." So they started out, and after going three miles overtook a man in a wagon with a mule team. The salesman toed and honked, and tooted, but the man with the mules refused to heed. Finally the farmer said: "This is my car, isn't it?" "It is," said the salesman. "And I paid for it." "You "Then," said the farmer, "you run right over that 'sunnavagin'; that's the way automobile drivers always done with me!"—Toronto (Kan.) Republican. Know the Seat of Trouble. Patient—"Oh, doctor, I have a terribly tired feeling all the time!" Physician—"Let me see your tongue, madam."—Judge. Good Enough "Is that a good fountain pen of yours?" "The best ever. It never leaks—except, of course, when I'm wearing a white vest." No Two Faces Allike The boss barber, who worked at the first chair in a Broadway shop in the intervals when he wasn't punching the cash register, stepped over to an old customer, who had just entered and said in a low tone: "Your regular barber is sick today. Try man on the barber." He is not, "the customer said, 'Tweedle him. Guess I let 'em grow until tomorrow.'" "To tell the truth," said the boss, "I can't tell' which of my barbers are good, be' other day I was shaving a man who told me that man on the fourth chair was the best barber," he heard man say, like, you that he was a bum workman. It's the same about all the men in this shop. I suppose we lose a lot of trade because men go too much on their first impressions of barbers. But what can I do? Shall I be that barber who he says nearly nothing in course not. That's the sort I'm up against all the time: It's because no two faces are alike." Ancient Mississippi Bay The lower valley of the Mississippi has experienced many vicissitudes during byegee months. Geologists tell us that during the Socene era, when the bay considerably farther inland than it present time, a long, bayline extension of the 'gulf filled the present valley of the Mississippi up to the mouth of the Chio. The boundaries of this ancient bay were stationary, but shifted slowly back and forth from time to time, so that open sea was gradually replaced by brackish water, and this by swamps and peat bogs. The succeeding advance of the sea buried these old peat and peat bogs in compulations of clay, sand and sea shells. Good Advice From Pa. "Pa, what is meant by overtime pay?" "Overtime pay, my boy, is the reward for doing a little extra labor, and there are two kids." "That so? and there are some men insist on collecting their overtime and at a specified rate; and others are willing to work overtime and take their reward in a successful future. I recommend the latter course, for you." —Detroit Free Press. MUST NOT BECOME MACHINE Many Reasons Why Too Much Devotion to Habit is Bad for Individual Worker. This force of habit is a good thing. it makes it possible for one to do a great deal of rote and work with it critically no exertion. Once the pattern is made, little attention is required. The brain acts almost automatically, moving hands and feet as may be necessary to accomplish the task. But habit can be injurious, too. And by this I don't mean bad habits. I mean that the habit can be much overdone, and that when this happens initiative and originality die. You become little more than a machine, and though you may get through your altered habits, you are yourself fading out as an individual, losing interest in existence. You girls whose work is pretty much all routine want to take care that habit doesn't make an end of you. A certain amount of routine labor is restful, and good for you. But keep your yourself slink into a day in and day out, and practically no thought, hardly any attention. If your work tends to that sort of thing make yourself do it in new ways, watch out for short cuts, bring your mind to hear on all its details, try to seek better ways of doing it, be busy over. And if your work is restful, take care from habit as much as possible the rest of your time. Don't so much as go home the same way every day in the week, vary your amusements, take up some study on the side. Resize all hazards to atrophy your mind by bringing into the unchanging habit of doing something new way, and thinking of everything the same way—Pittsburgh Dispatch. The Japanese Woman. The Japanese woman exists primarily for and in the family. We still adhere to the old way of thinking that her natural habitat is the home, and that her appearance at the polls is an unnatural sate on the battlefield. Let us assume, for the sake of illustration, already too prevalent old and at home, that we look upon women only as cows in the machinery of the kitchen or as made puppets and ornaments in the parlor, writes Doctor Nitrobe in the Japanese Nation. The personality of the fairy is not as common among as as it ought to be but that it will come with more general and lightenment of poise conscience. As it is at present, the aim of female education is to make "in good wife and a wise mother," a stereotyped shibboleth on the lips of all educators and of the nation,circumscribing the end of the woman's life. According to this doctrine, the person, but as wife and mother, that woman is to be educated. As He Saw the Play. "Oh, do tell me something about the play last night. They say that climax at the close of the third act was simply grand," she said. Yes, I am inclined to think it was dramatic, but without any marked degree of enthusiasm. "Can't you describe it to me," she continued, beaming radiantly. "Why," explained he, the heroine came stealthily on the stage and knelt, dagger in hand, behind a clump of blue ribbons. Too hero emerged from his claws and as soon as she perceived him, she stabbed him twice, and sank half-conscious into a very handsome algrette. This may sound a trifle queer, but the lady in front of me came in late for the performance and became so inexperienced that she forgot to remove her hat, and that's how it looked to me." Newspaper Blanket How many have ever heard of a newspaper blanket? Even people who have downy comforts and fine blankets find it impossible to keep warm on them. You can make two sheets—worn enes will do; haze them—the more the better—tack (or bests) them two or three layers thick all over one of the sheets. Use common wrapping twine and a darning needle to fasten them. Then lay the other on and tack it, here and there to the edge. The edges are roughly with a cord to make it more compact. It is impossible for air to penetrate the paper. Infection Through Gnee Sutra Infection through Cigar Gutter. When it is recognized how easily the cigar eats the spreading infection, and infection of a dangerous nature, the days of this article of convenience will be numbered. To illustrate: a person will often, after he has first hold his cigar in his mouth, step to the counter and the cutter. This thoughtless yet dangerous common that it can be, wilted time after time at every cigar stand. Undoubtedly it has been one of the principal means of spreading infection among those who smoke cigars, and it high time that an agent so potent was abolished—American Medicine. Figures Seen In the Moon. A great many curious ideas exist in various parts of the world regarding the dark spots in the moon's disk. In the eastern part of Asia the spots are beloved to be a rabbit or a hare; the Chinese particular, look upon them as a hare sitting and smudging rice in a mortar. Most of the Siamese take the same view. Some few, however, see in the moon a man and woman working in a field. Are You Envious? Envy is the weakness of small natures.

ABDUL-BAHA True Happiness, Wisdom and Progress. The Dawn of Knowledge. ABDUL-BAHA True Happiness, Wisdom and Progress. The Dawn of Knowledge. Can Conceive Reason of Love. We have given us love. We have implanted us love. Then we can conceive the reason of love. Then we conclude that God is the reason of love. Then we conclude that God is the reason of love, how could we ever conceive of love at all, so that we might say "God is Love of believers?" God is the Friend "God is Love of Jesus?" Is it difficult to answer it? Is it clear? Is it no doubt that there are degrees. For example, the sciences of degree in science. The sciences of all the question has been asked: What about about human think of Free Will? Have we given us freedom in meaning of free will is. It is a fact, that God, has given us free will, because if He had not given us free will, then we cannot understand free will meaning of free will is. At the present this world cannot understand free will meaning of free will. For example, a child born blind cannot conceive sight; a child born deaf, cannot conceive hearing; a child born power of hearing. If God had not given us the power of free will, how could we become conscious of the meaning of free will? We could not even imagine it. Because He has given us this will—we come conscious of the meaning of the will; we know what will is. Then we be called a will. For instance, if we did not have a life how could we ever dream of God intelligence, if we did not have knowledge, how could we know the meaning of God intelligence, if we did not know that the Wise? Because He has given us this knowledge we can grasp the meaning of God intelligence, if we did not know that God is the Wise, the Knowing. Is it no doubt that these degrees exist. All the members of humanity are not equal in the exercise of the created beings; the created phenomena. These are without freedom of will. There is no free will; this great colossal sun has no free will; the world of nature has no (Continued next week.)
