DENISON AWAITS ORDERS TO MOVE SOUTH Col. Franklin A. Denison of the Bighighl regiment has received no orders to move up to 3 o'clock Wednesday morning, orders, which are supposed, to be somewhere on the way. However, the regiment is now in readiness and can be moved to another location. More equipment has been given to the boys. A Defender reporter learned that all the colonel knows about the regiment, is what the daily press has published. students are retarding the progress of the classes in the high school, and also contends that by no means can he thought of social equality ever be contemplated. Numerous reports have shown that race students and the separate dancing classes that are being held in the halls of the school, he expressed himself as converted to belief that Race students could better be educated, and remained in the grammar school districts, where they are familiar with the atmosphere. He cited to the Chicago Defender representative that he had used in various cities, and also in a number of districts here in Chicago. And since there is a very large per cent of Race students in the Wendell Phillips School, Raymond School could well decrease this percentage. He stated that as the Junior High School plan had proved a success in the exclusive white districts, he thought that Race students in heavily mixed districts. Principal Perine is reported to have explained that the white students in this proposed Junior High School district could be easily relieved of the embarrassment by school through a system of permits and transfers. When being asked by the reporter as to whether he thought Wendell Phillips should be a white school he exclaimed: "I don't think that the white the whites should be crowded out of the Wendell Phillips by the Negro." He stated that the attendance in the school this year is more than 400 students than the year. He assigns as the reason for this decrease advice given the parents of children living south of Wendell Phillips. It is rumored that the alderman in that parish named the whites against sending the children to the school on account of the high attendance caused by Race students. Teacher Ridicules Race Mr. Perrine is alleged to have said to an investigator that Race prejudice is natural and ever prevalent, and that she is shingling. Hendell Phillips would be obsolete, and dance classes may serve to prove his theory if the teachers continue to reprimand Race students, as it is claimed a Miss Chadwick did during her time. The students were in the act of dancing, she approached them and remarked that they "wiggled like snakes and wobbled from side to side, and that they look in the mirror and see was present aides that after she can mark she gazed in the direction of several white students, seemingly intent on provoking laughter. In seventh grade the rudiculous utterances have become so pervasive that Race students were forced to leave the assembly dance hall. Race Domination Feared It has been said officially that when the attendance at Wendell Phillips is 50 per cent Race members there will be many people in the social, civic and industrial centers and are now organized and captured by the white students. ```markdown ``` PRICE FIVE CENTS TART RTER Army Men d for Murder killed (all are white except Harris) was intoxicated when the train pulled into camp.

I. Taylor, following an infamous article appearing in the Indianapolis Ledger concerning the A. B. C.e., which last week The Chicago Defender said was a badly crippled team. Mr. Taylor did wire Foster for the services of some of his players. Sporting Editor, Chicago Defender: Dear Sir: I have read Howard's scathing denunciation and humiliating charges sent broadcast to the world under the heading: "A. B. C. Get First Ledger Roast." In one of the latter paragraphs of the "Roast" will be found this statement: "It certainly would be interesting information for the Colored fans of this city to know just why no effort was made to give them a better run in the series just played with McGill's Indians." Since the Ledger in its first "roast," and I will add, its first opportunity and I will add, has the gap in the foregoing paragraph given privilege of setting forth the facts as to just why no "effort" was made to strengthen the club for the games with the players, has the gap in to its apology for this explanation, taking: for granted the Ledger is magnanimous enough to publish the explanation the fans have upon Upon the fans, has the gap in me; but giving it a second and then a third reading, and knowing, as I do, that not one effort was made by the players, has the gap in to the public with "Roast," it sounded ridiculous and a joke; and to the average baseball fan it will give impression the Ledger had carefully investigated and truth that no "effort" had been made to have the club in the best possible condition. Since forth the facts and see if any effort was made to make a real showing against the Indians or did we sit idly by and make no preparation to be charged by the Ledger. Roster of Players In order that the fans may see for themselves we give below a roster of players and the positions they have to maintain a high class ball club. Dismuikes, pitcher, left of his own accord: McDougal, pitcher, three: McDougal, pitcher, to make good; Jefferies pitcher, center field and left field; Johnson, pitcher, sore arm, off form all year; Gatewood, pitcher and first base; Powell, catcher, second base, injured at Munroe, Aug 12th; McDougal, in early part of year; Malarcher, catcher, pitcher, second base, right field and third base; B. Taylor, first catcher, second base, pneumonia having poor year; Warfield, base, shortstop, sprained ankle half the summer; Clark, shortstop, right field and third base, trouble eyes, had poor year; Taylor, third base, suffered with charley horse and bad ankle all year; Cobb, catcher, rib broken in St. Louis Sept. 15th; McDougal, third base, injured with charley horse and right field, injured Aug. 19th in double header against American Giants; Shivley, left field, insubordination, left club of own accord; Blackwell, left field, insubordination with charley horse; Lynch, center field and right field; Lyons, left field and center field, suffering with charley horse; Britton pitcher; Lander, pitcher, WILLIAM pitcher; had great year, held up the club. In other words we have used twenty-one (21) players, who have played for the club in the run-in. In efforts to keep the club in the running. And this is not all; in our efforts to bolster the club we made a move to the Atlantic City. We tried to land "Cyclone" Joe Williams, offering him two hundred dollars per month, which he received. In the same army he was receiving. We made flattering offers to Spotws Poles, the Lincoln Giants left fielder. We tried to bolster the same club; we negotiated with Santon and Gatewood both catchers of the Giants, we tried to bolster our pitching staff with Barry Bacharachs of Atlantic City, offering each and all of these players salaring each of the success that they were drawing. More than that they are familiar with the above facts. Other Facts We sent Powell to West Baden, Ind. to be treated by a specialist. We had an X-ray picture made of his shoul- der efforts to get him back in the car. The Ledger's Roast But the Ledger's "roost," or charge, is that nothing was done to bolster the club for the games with the Indians. But the Wizards place if it were possible to throw a great ball club together in a few hours not only would we have been thorough-prep for meet the Indians, but we would have been the world's colored championship this year. "Roast Hasty" The Ledger's "first roast" wan hasty and made without investigation and without regard to the facts which we know before stated. it is impossible to throw at the ladder together in a few minutes as the Ledger would have it appear, but it takes time. patience, energy, money, much experience, and last, but not least, it requires a lot of effort. Our efforts to give to the fans a great ball club: we have spent thousands of dollars, many sleepless nights, and many hard days of rigid practice and training, when been untiring in our efforts to satisfy and gratify a sport-loving public. And, then, to be charged with carelessness, he pennies to bolster my club wherever it was weak without first knowing the law, and then than I could expect from the ledger. The Fans' Support The Ledger says that the fans alone are responsible for the A. B. C.'s getting the privileges of playing the postseason. We have to admit that we have done nothing; we take that to show that our four years of hard work in bringing about a new league has been nothing and anything that we have done by the people. It leaves us to wonder who made the Ledger, the people or the editor-owner? We fully believe want some of the credit for its success laid to his own unintended efforts. We further believe that if on any occasion he had done his best to give the team a chance to win and for some cause over which he had control had failed, he would not feel the people should withdraw their support from his paper till at least Better Not Played the facts were known; neither would the people ought to withdraw their support because it might fail to measure in to the standard of the Indianapolis Star or News. The Ledger further says it would have been far better not to have played the games. He only another one of the funny bushes in the trained in the "roast." Mr. McGill said to me early in August that if his club on the flag he would likely play my club on the right. They clinched the flag Sept. 17th, and Mr. McGill wired me at Kanaka on the 18th, that the games were on, and that nothing for me to do but play the games. Wired Foster for Help The Ledger says no effort was made to bolster the club, but as soon as the team was ready, the was assured I sent the following wire to Rube Foster, which explains itself: Telegram The Indianapolis Association team won pennant. We play them Saturday, Sunday. My club shot entirely to C. I. TAXLOR. We play out of game since Aug. 12th. Cobb shattered Saturday in St. Louis. I. J. Taylor has charisley horse. Charleston has sprained ankle and all the men more or less injured. Must have Dearness and Dixon or Petway. Amanda should be C. I. TAXLOR. Foster replied immediately and explained that he had just completed arrangements for an important series of games. We would return to Wisconsin and would not return to Chicago till late Saturday night or early Sunday morning and therefore designee. We must concede that his games were as important to him as ours were to us. One week before knowing definitely the Indians I made further overtures to Top of New York City and Deus of Atlantic City, but could secure the services of neither. At the same time I had to hire the men in condition. I had to hire them as a trainer at Kansas City and paid his fare all the way to Indianapolis who were injured working on my men who were injured to get them in fair shape for the games. I still have this min in my employ. No other Colored ball club ever emplied a ball club. No other Colored ball club ever played the dominantners of a major-minor league club. No other Colored man ever built up such a baseball club as the A. B. C.'s in Indianapolis. There is no agency in the city of Indianapolis which has done more or brought more prestige and advertising to Indianapolis than the A. B. C. B. B. club, and then to think because we made a game, a games, a leading journal, which stands for the uplift of the Race, would be the first to suggest that the support of the people should be withdrawn, even a prejudiced mind could conceive. Arraignment of Williams The most unjust attack and severe arrangement that ever came to my no-voice since I have been in the game was that I had to play against Williams. Mind you, no effort has been made to know the probable causes of my wildness in the Sunday's contest. This will be the recipient of such a severe and unjust attack by the Ledger, has been the mainstay of the A. B. C. club since he has and has won 45 per cent of his games. Consure Players I often find it necessary to censure ball players, but I have not one word of his showing against the Infield because of his great effort to win the game single-handed proved his downfall. He knew the weakened and crippled condition of his team, and he knew that B. Taylor were the only men on the club who were not more or less successful. He knew that a Colored ball club was for the first time pitted against the pennant winners of a major organization and that the burden of effort was on him because of his many crippled teammates. It was a supreme occasion and Williams made as game an effort as I would to land him for my 1918 club. Warmed Up Well Powell the receiving while Williams warmed up for the game and he had six players in the teams he had more on the ball than he had ever seen him have, though he was a player who had enough, to the fact he had so much. Powell was that if he could get it over the Indians were beaten already. It was not unusual to see too much, which is not unusual on redemption games. The Figures The game in figures do not tell a sad tale at all. They show that we outfit the champions; they show that the honors the Indians imported from the Louisiana took the Indians' seven hits. They show that the crippled A. B. C.'s made two errors, while the champions made one. They show twelve Indians left on base. They show that the Indians hit off Williams; three off Johnson and nine off the champion twirler. In our crippled condition we played the game, but the players of the game than did the champions. Players' inability to locate the plate would have made the club look bad, but figures do not lie. We did our best and if the Ledger says we must go, all right. BENEFIT BOUT New Orleans, La., Oct. 5—Dixie Luecken, champion bantam wrestler of the south, boxed four rounds with Jack Kelley, champion bantam wrestler of the fight was a benefit for the soldierz.

CHICAGO DEFENDER NEWS SERVICE New York, Oct. 5—The Lincoln Giants gathered the upper hand on the Royal League on the Sunday at Olympic Field by taking both the short and the double bill. The Lincoln are now leading the series six to five. The short game was a slugging affair. The scores: Royal Giants ..... 4 0 1 0 0-5 Royal Giants ..... 4 0 1 0 1 --10 Chelsea ..... 4 0 1 0 1 --10 Called on account of drips TENNESSEE GIANTS VS. RAGENS Foster to Give Score of World's Series Games The fans that attend the American Giants-Ragen Colts baseball game will not be treated with a swell game of ball, but will be treated with a New York Giants baseball score inning by inning. There will be plenty of room to accommodate the overflow of thirty-fifth street park as most of the stadium cannot be accommodated. Foster has therefore succeeded in landing the Ragen Colts in a return game. The gaggle of Corys, who pitched such grand hall day and who beat the Giants, will work again and either Redding or Williams will face him. The Giants are out for they are going to cop again, so they are coming ready. NAVY YARD TEAM U. S. Navy Yard, Charleston, S. C. Oct. 5.—The Navy Yard baseball baseball team, S.

This first show on the screen would have satisfied the movie fans. The show opened with a six round bet between Young Costello and Benny Hathaway on the Sheet as the third bet in the ring. The limit with both boys strong and so well matched that it was conceded a draw by the impartial; the few ladies who were in the ring. Both boys are good at their weight, 115 pounds, and gave ample satisfaction. The battle royal which followed the bout between "Congo" Kid of Kansas City and Dan Green of St. Louis at 135 pounds ended unsatisfaction. The round threw his glove to his face, claiming a foul from Green's elbow, but the claim was not allowed by Referee John McCarthy, the arena, thus giving Green the fight. The main event, a twelve round affair, between Battling Game of Six and the Eighth Illinois Regiment of Chicago (as was announced), was a fight from the tap of the gong. Both boys were knocked down, and hee knocked Wilson down, however in the first round. From the second round, both boys were doing both boys being equally guilty, round five there was much wrestling both boys evidently feeling the effects of the gong, from round five and Wilson bleeding freely from a blow received in the fourth round.

DUM VIVIMUS VIVAMUS drink deep of the breath of each glorious day, hid thoughts of the morrow he still; What matters it prevents it stay The sorrows just over the hill.

Our Girls THE FATTED CALF when our truant boy is good and shows a Christian-like spirit when they tire of the bright lights. The illusive road that leads to certain day is same hearty welcome when they step recorded their erring brothers?

He is a welcome.

It isn't just, it isn't a the necessity of two standards—one for a crime committed by a man the less reality, the weaker sex, is it not the duty weaker? Where is that Christian spirit? To sit in cruel judgment on erring earthly torture while permitting their bit if not more guilty, of social crimes the follower of his satanic majesty rather than teachings. All human, all liable to make missteps, to personally direct the movements of the becomes of age or old enough and they become of age or old enough and percentate right from wrong.

Pare—the child neglected is like the rose in weeds that choke out the sunlight and KILLING THE FATTED CALF when our truant boys return home is all very well and good and shows a Christian-like spirit, but what of our wayward girls when they tire of the bright lights and no longer care to travel the illusive road that leads to certain destruction? Do they receive the same hearty welcome when they step over the thresholly as that accorded their erring brothers? The boy who drifts into the outer world and breaks every law of God and man, or attempts to, with the slightest show of repentance is taken back into the home, and so-called society, with its open arms, welcomes him. The winds of summer blow over him, his mistakes are brushed aside with the remark that "boys will be boys, and must sow their wild oats." Every opportunity is given him to make good. He is a welcome visitor in exclusive homes, and his suit for the hand of some pure, sweet young girl is looked upon with favor by doting mammas and indulgent papas. The young girl who errs—it matters not under what circumstances, how much she repents, how earnestly she strives to bury her one false step—carries the yoke of scorn about her neck until she dies. Her deed might be temporarily overlooked, but never forgotten; how deeply it is covered depending upon her social or financial condition. It's the way of the world, we glibly say, and add our little push to her downward career as thoughtlessly as we would brush the dust from our clothing. It isn't fair, it isn't right. It isn't just, it isn't a fifty-fifty proposition. Why the necessity of two standards—one for men, the other for women? Is a crime committed by a man the less detestable? If women are, in reality, the weaker sex, is it not the duty of the stronger to care for the weaker? Where is that Christian spirit that teaches to forgive is divine? To sit in cruel judgment on erring women and condemn them to earthly torture while permitting their brothers who are equally guilty, if not more guilty, of social crimes to go scot-free, stamps one as a follower of his satanic majesty rather than a follower of Christ and His teachings. We are all human, all liable to make missteps. It is the solemn duty of parents to personally direct the movements of their boy or girl until he or she becomes of age or old enough and mentally strong and girl until they become of age or old enough and mentally strong enough to differentiate right from wrong. A special safeguard should be thrown around our girls because of the very fact that there are two standards, with the odds all in favor of the boys. Parents usually reap what they sow—the child neglected is like the rose neglected, soon surrounded with weeds that choke out the sunlight and wither the soul. THE WHY OF THE THING GREATEST WAR in the history of the world has been raging now at three years and the end is not yet in sight. Almost from the outset it has been told to the soldier but was a matter of time. That in the early part of the year and at the end of our our fighting force are actually at the battle front the service, financial wise, we have rendered our allies and are still rendering enab- sh the drive for democracy more vigorously. Even said that the masses of the German people are ignorant of doubtful facts. If it is true that Germany it is also her countries engaged in the battle, carrying each country is credited with. Americans have, perhaps, of being informed on all matters vitally affecting the govern- we are the government—the will of the people rules, not the in spite of this, an incredible number fully ignorant of any other fact save we are at war with Germany, of the thing has never dawned upon them. We may not have been necessary, but on the floor of the house of represen- a member said to his colleagues, that even the German government admits that the war is not the spirit of the Hague conventions, subscribed to, and, in part, proposed by the world’s great known rules of international law and treats herefore existing between the two governments. It might be asked, why not keep our vessels off the high seas and let the other follows right it out? If it were simply a matter of trade, of dollars and cents, this course might seem feasible. But we have our national powers, to the world’s great powers. When we budge an inch from the standard we have to maintain, we deaden and we weaken the moral sensibilities of our own people. Germany autocracy were it to spread, would be the greatest enemy civilization has known. The more fully German's methods are revealed the greater is the determination of the rest of the world to crush this malevolent agency. Half a century has it spent in military preparation for a war of conquest, so it is not strange that it refused all proposals for a peaceful settlement of interstate relations, to die or run, and as the former has so far been impossible the Germans proceeded to attack the combatants and non-combatants alike, enslave their population, desolate their miles, commit acts of wholesale plunder on the high seas, giving to the slightest consideration to human life, but rather attempting to instill fear and terror into the breasts of all who oppose them. Did we not fight for our right to travel the high seas unmolested it would be a repudiation of the principles announced by our government and would be a test admission of the justice of the German claim of right. It would condone the deaths of the slaughtered innocents of the Lusitania. It would be a relinquishment of rights that came to us through oceans of blood and personal sacrifice. It would place the stamp of approval on Germany's treatment of Religion. The ghosts of the innocent murdered would stalk through our land while the innocent peruvian eyes would linger the last vestige of autocracy, and when right is pitted against wrong through the latter has right on its side, it is a truism that right finally prevails of many dynasties in within the memory of most of us, and one more will soon join in their wake. We shall not mourn the departed, but cry joyfully, Long live democracy." CAMPING OUT ERS had—past tense—an idea that all who dawned up. "Wonderful burg the Stats of comparisons were not odious we should like or of homes, business houses, in professions, that it has them beaten, not one, but two countries applause from those who have less than every loon on jolly, and conditions in every northern is expected that prejudice, to a greater or less advancement hinges on the methods employed as the most liberal city, and a mecca forairs didn't just happen—it is the result of men and women who came in the early days would be no bar. Gradually the women became good whenever and wherever placed, receiv their fellowmen and acted as a balance wheel. NEW YORKERS had—past tense—an idea that all who did not live in their city were "camping out." Wonderful burg the Statue of Liberty shines on, we admit. If comparisons were not odious we should like to rise and say that to the matter of homes, business houses, in professions, trades and politics, the "Windy City" has them beaten, not one, but two country blocks. Playing in the street, they applaud those who have less than you have, but one cannot live very long on jolly. As far as we are concerned, conditions in every northern city are what we make them. It is expected that prejudice, to a greater or less degree, will be met with, and our advancement hinges on the methods employed to overcome it. Chicago is known as the most liberal city, and a mecca for "humane" people. This state of affairs didn't just happen—it is the result of years of careful nursing. The men and women who came in the early days and have grown to be the most abiding citizens. To such there could be no bar. Gradually they worked their way to the body polite, made good wherever and wherever received, received the confidence and respect of their fellowmen and acted as a balance wheel for the actions of all newcomers. nation in national, city, city and ward politics; our influence sought by men who are in a position to return the favor. We have delivered our professional early support; we care for the children; we conform to the requirements. We have representatives in and in the state legislature to safeguard our interests. In attempting to live as other people have lived for centuries, we grouped with a few of the many opportunities afforded; most of them were that of Chicago, their support should not two of their representatives have been placed on the first time—let every voter rally to their support. In Add. New Yorkers could with profit camp out for a time in one of that hustle so characteristic of westerners. The New Yorker is about as definite an address as our boss knows the clip on the kaiser's shoulder and march into A PROTEST In behalf of members of the 24th Infantry not guilty of participating in the Houston "Riot" shootings, he would publish the following article: In reply to an article by Ex-Lieutenant Flipper, in the Pittsburgh Courier, in which he concurred that he would be coronal, I would like to say that I am not one who would shield the guilty, but I do not think that all should be condemned on account of the misconduct of the minority. Lieutenant Flipper, to quote his exact words, states that, "Negro Regiments are composed of white men, and the sum of the Negro Rare." You are no doubt acquainted with the record of the 24th Infantry, and personally acquaint- ing with the 24th Infantry, and served in the 24th Infantry, and also in the famous 8th Illinois of Chicago: First Lieut. James A. Greene, of the 8th Illinois, now retired, and a sergeant of Comp. K, 24th Infantry, Patton, adjutant of the 8th Illinois and a former member of the 24th Infantry; Lieutenant Crawford, of the 8th Illinois and also served in the 24th Infantry, and others too numerous to mention. A regiment that has produced men of the caliber of the above-named men surely can not be made up wholely of those who served and the scum of the Negro Race. The 24th Infantry had a clean record for over fifty years, and the fact that there is now a blot on the records of the regiment. At all places that the regiment was stationed the citizens were as one in their praise of the good conduct of the men. When the regiment was stationed in the States from the islands, in 1915, the citizens of the city of Manila presented the regiment with a silveroving cup, as a reward for the work between the 24th and themselves. The city of San Francisco also thought well of the regiment, and thought so about the work of the police of the city that requests were sent to the commanding officer of the regiment asking that they be discharged, to accept positions on the police force of San Francisco. The manner in which the regiment carried itself before the last need not be commented upon as it is history and known to all. In 1898, during the prevalence of the 24th Infantry, academic members of the 24th Infantry were the only men on the island of Cuba who would volunteer to the sick or the bury the dead—Fruit the acts. Lieutenant Flipper would have us believe, "Of thugs, gamblers the scum of the Negro Race." The Ex-LIutenant should also consider the fact, before demanding all Negro soldiers, that they be complained of which he, with his West Point training, could not accomplish; that is, securing commissiones as officers in the Army to the present time. They are Captain Greene, of the 25th Intranty, and Capt. Benjamin O. D. Greene, of the 25th of these men were enlisted men when they received their commissions. They met with the commander of the tenant Flipper met with, and to judge by results, must have been his superior, as they still retain their positions as officers of the S. S. (S. S.) was cashed from the service. I don't think that the Ex-LIcutenant thought of these points before he declared himself as he did, and I hope that should this article come before him, that he understand the weight and consideration he no doubt spoke hastily, and the fact that El Paso is his home may have had something to do with his speaking as he did.

Chicago's Social Condition Today and Twenty Years Ago By Julius N. Avanderph This is the second article on the social status of Chicago today, as compared with social conditions twenty-two years ago. First, I am going to reiterate what I said in my first article of February, 1915, relative to the comparison; there is absolutely no comparison. In fact, I doubt very much whether any of those who can recall the social condition of twenty-two years ago, will live long enough to have a favorable comparison, as there is a condition existing in the social life of Chicago today that can never be entirely eliminated, thereby making a complete social organization out of the question. In course, we must expect that the proportion they have today it becomes a difficult proposition. I hold, however, that social contact is as essential in a community as any other well-respected institution; therefore, the enjoyment out of social contact, all things must be more or less equal, and in order to equalize social conditions the moral standard must be above rejection of attack or exposure, exercise sufficient moral courage to draw a tight line against questionable characters or social imposters. Doubtless some one advances the argument that time change might contend that we ought to be broad, and at the same time, progressive. Granting that, nevertheless, broadness nor progressiveness, cannot regulate social life, which ought to be going to touch on the ethical side of society, however, that there are many exceptions. I have observed some things within the last year or two that would not be tolerated in social circles twenty-two years ago, and, for that reason going to touch on the ethical side of society, however, that there are many exceptions. Twenty-two years ago the married and single women stood above indirect actions, such as I have observed that it is decidedly unbecoming for a married woman to accept the partnership of a gentleman for more than two dances during the evening, and extremely vulgar for either married or head or face to touch that of their partner. While the man is usually the guilty one, he is seldom accused; that's why it is all the more essential not young women should protest themselves familiarly on the part of men by being dignified at all times. A woman always draws the apause and admiration of men when she possesses dignity and modesty. She has a suggestion of a social function beginning with her identification two years ago, such as the one held last New Year's night by a number of young people, who are socially connected, at Johnson's Hall, would have suffered a suffit if all concerned severely criticized them. So not by any means put a stamp of disapproval on any one else on account of not being socially connected; quite the contrary, as social contact means moral uplift and social betterment. The people who took an active part in social life twenty-two years ago had a social interest in each other, so much so, that when society put its pressure on the social success, but everything with the social society attached to it was not accepted; therefore, you were not subjected to meeting people that you had desire to know or be associated with, in most instances, is the case today. The argument is often advanced that a lady can be a lady anywhere, or in any society. That is true. But she never appears of the embassament of Tyranny. She shows class distinction but not a tending affairs where the distinction must be made, and that must apply to our best women, as no one speaks Race Man, Wake Up We are the slaves of our own belief, and we love our chains. Although our faith may be false, we hate the hand and tie to fear us. When the President sounded the tacosin of war, summoning the chivalry of the country in the defense of the nation, then it was the duty of every loyal and able-bodied Race man to place his service at the service of his Race and country. Since the declaration of war, one has had vast opportunities on the street, in public conveyances and in the homes to be guarded conversations and interchanges of ideas, revealing their true characters to the DON'T SAY I WANT A PAPER SAY—I WANT CHICAGO DEFENDER of Mrs. A. or B. attending such an affair, but took no part. On the contrary, they simply make mention of an affair, but being present. Society must stand for and be cardinal principal ought to be class distinction, irrespective of what the criticism might be. Society people, the subject of much unjust criticism, but society class who criticizes everybody and everything, but stand for naught themselves. Is there anything more unjust criticism, exhibiting than an evening or afternoon naughty genial associates; let it be in the drawing room, library or the dance hall? need only to reflect for a certain picture in the home of Mrs. A. or B., where there is an imaginary picture of twenty-two women and in the picture we find the young and old vicing with each other and drinking from the fountain of follicle in the home of Mrs. A. or B., where there is a very atmosphere. There was an association between the single and married people that was really interesting and appreciated by both, but, unfortunately, not everyone today. On the contrary, there seems to be an indifferent attitude on the part of the young people toward the married people as well as toward each other. The young people around them are concerned, which is responsible, no doubt, for the married people not showing more interest in having the young people around them off to meet young men to meet young men paying an informal call on a family where there is no young people. Twenty-two years ago that was a pleasure that the married people did and it was a common group to see or give a group paying such calls. There is a greater need today of a closer association between the married and single people, no stand for moral and social upbill, as the environments are so different.

The United States has been divided into four great sections comprising four great conferences of tuberculosis, that meet annually. This grew out of the act that the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis that for years has met in Washington, D. C., during the month of May found it advisable and profitable to co-conferences and smaller conferences in order that more working in a particular section of the country could get together oftener and hold, as it were, round table talks, and work hard to improve methods of prevention of tuberculosis in their particular section. Mississippi Valley Conference There is a Northeastern Section, a Southern Section and a Western Section. The Mississippi Valley Section is composed of Illinois, Iowa, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska and Wisconsin.

Conference in Minneapolis. It has been customary for the governors of the various states to give the delegates commissiones to this conference, and giving them authority to represent the commonwealth whence they come. Importance to the People This Conference is of double importance to the colored people for the reason that a large number of the newcomers have just located in the states mentioned as composing this group, these people will make and are working the housing conditions, the working conditions, the health and sanitary conditions more complex, much more difficult to handle, and any light object to be eagerly sought on the part of our physicians, nurses and social workers. The health problem as apprehending to the Negro in this section of the country is that they are not according to the interest and care that the leaders and social workers put into it. A large number of the people have taken up their abode in the country, and are poor, unacquainted and unacquainted to living in this section of the country. This will be their first fall and winter spent in a northern climate, and a lack of intelligence, are going to cheap rent—small living quarters—very, many of them are going to sample even a portion of their small family, about close personal contact—in other words, overcrowding in health or sickness, bad housing, close personal contact, you understand, are some of the factors in predisposing to lung consumption and other infectious diseases. Our men and women who hope to render valuable social service must have the spirit and knowledge of must have the spirit and knowledge of must have the knowledge for the benefit of these people, and we know of no places where they can acquire more knowledge than they days, give a greater inspiration with money, than can be gotten in attendance upon the Mississippi Valley Tuberculosis Conference in Minneapolis. Three Great Plagues The colored people of this country are face to face with ITHREE GREAT PLAGUES; conscious or unconscious face we are facing them every day. We are facing them sometimes just charges and sometimes some very unjust and damaging charges against the Negro Race as to these three great plagues. Sometimes, PEAR that the Race is negligent, in fact, does not deal with these problems and addressing itself their solution. The Race has been so long charged with being a tuberculous flace, a syphilitic Race, a cancerous race, that we think it is unable to accept these damaging charges without even making a protest. The Negro workers, nurses and social workers SHOULD GET BUSY AND-KEEP BUSY in doing, they are to be used to the minimum justification on the basis of the dominant Race in the claims that the Negro is a tuberculous Race—a Race full of syphilis and other general diseases. These charges hurt Race. Race is much from an economic point of view, no person, no set of people care to associate or come in contact with, as a servant, a schoolmate or to associate in any way whatsoever, with a person who is tuberculous germs or whose body is filth. We are not saying, nor do we admit that all or any considerable part of them are true, but, we do admit that as regards consumption, the people are careless, too unconcerned for their needs or for the good of their neighbors.
