Touching on the injustice of today, the only Race assemblyman, after discussing the origin and history of slavery, launched an attack upon the sort of justice which whits at lynchings and the longings of the Race today.

Therefore, our men, being unable to work with them, were forced to work against them. But the better day is dawning, the industrial union realize that all men are equal to the job or the bosses will use those who are left out to batter down the wages of those who are kept in. The security of labor which the war has created is being disrupted this movement. And the International Federation of Workers in the Hotel and Restaurant industry are availing themselves of this golden opportunity. They do not want to see the Race boys be treated like animals to have the bosses employ Race boys, whether the crews be white or not, they want them all enrolled in the union, sharing the same conditions and meeting together in the same locals and discussing their common problems and plan together for their common welfare. Organize in Philadelphia GRANDIZE in Philadelphia The Philadelphia headquarters of the union are the eleventh street, where white and Colored workers are already fraternizing together. The organizer can be found there or at 387 Federal street, and he has issued a call to the boys to meet him at headquarters on Saturday night when they belong to the union or not. "I was told boys together," he said, "because I should like to hear what they think of the situation before I presume to tell them what I think. I want to help the cause of unionism if I can; but I will not." "First," he said, "Mr. Harrison, who is well known in New York, Connecticut, New Jersey and Pennsylvania as a fearless and radical champion of his Race's rights, both as author, editor and lecturer, will Philadelphia for two or three weeks, the rest of the time he will be inington.

New Set of Lafayette Players Draw Full House Billy King Still Riot at the Grand WM. S. HART 'THE TWO-GUN MAN' in 'THE BARGAIN' THE GREATEST OF HART PRODUCTIONS SIX SENSATIONAL REELS OF STARTLING ACTION THREE DAYS FRI., SAT., SUN., JUNE 7,8,9 CONTINUOUS 2 P. M. TO MIDNIGHT STATES THEATER 3507 STATE STREET W.S. HART IN 'THE TWO-GUN MAN' IN 'THE BARGAIN' PAGE FOUR "You can't judge an actor by his size; the biggest drum in the band plays the fewest notes." Nothing but the greatest praise will suffice in connection with the splendid presentation of "Broken Threads," the initial offering of the second group of Lafayette Players, who opened at the Avenue theater Monday night for an indelinite stay. While a review might rightfully be considered an improper place to publish a ransom, it must be admitted, in all fairness, that all the good things said in advance of these players were proven to be justified, and in no department is there Tony Langston M. B. H. the least room for a doubt that the new arrivals are on a par with the company which has just left. This is a finished group, which brings out every ounce of work done by those who work was accorded applause from the very beginning of the prologue itself, a fact as gratifying as it was unexpected and unusual. "Broken Threads" has as a story an engrossing narrative of the downfall of a talented young girl who had found it necessary to support her mother and who, in her office for a while, was the stress of a dissolute young man of strong family and political connections. After three years a young mining prospector comes into her life, and offers her an honorable marriage. The girl confesses her relations with the "waster", but despite this confession, she remains a loyal and devoted mother, her former lover over her attempts to break off relations with him, the prospector comes to her rescue and in the ensuing struggle the wealthy lover is killed with his own revolver. The girl is drugged, after the arrest of her prospector is accomplished, and is placed on a vessel sailing the night in Australia "the man" is sent to prison for life; he escapes and later locates a rich mine, and after five years, comes back to take up his abode among civilized surroundings. The tragedy of these years is vividly told, and the story holds one enthralled until the final curse is brought, through a seemingly relentless fate, to ultimate happiness. As Dorothy Darrell, the girl, Cleo Desmond is wonderfully well cast, and the manner in which she handles the part is remarkable. There are many places throughout the piece in which Miss Desmond has opportunities and challenges, as Harry Winn, the Prospector, and Andrew Nishon is splendid; he is the "type," both from the physical standpoint and as a dramatic reader, and gets much out of the many climaxes throughout the play. Charles H. Moore, who was one of the standby boys, has always borne a great reputation as the portrayer of parts such as that of General Leighton, a rich mine owner, and with his son, Freddie Leighton, played by Arthur T. Ray, adds considerable comedy to an otherwise gripping current of events. Mr. Leighton has always been the character of a plain-clothes man. Charlotte Freeman does some fine work in the part of Julia Leighton, the General's daughter, and Clarence Muse, characterizing the District Attorney, worked the part in a manner which signifies wonders when he is better interested, and the same can be said of that of Charles Lucas, who played the part of the political boss, and H. L. Drury, the victim of his own impetuosity. Iria Hall, as the French waitress, deserves more than passing mention and completed the cast, which is imagined as "Broken Threads" is a fine play, finely played by a fine player, and must be seen to be appreciated. The Grand Billy King & Co. are offering a musical comedy called "The Roof Garden," as their second week's feature, and it is a riot of fun from beginning to end. Billy is so well known for his ability to extract mirth and his inорrent knowledge of doing things in general and in detail, and it is hardly necessary to go into detail regarding the many different ways that he uses to howl the folks out in front; but howl is what they do, and with good cause, "The Roof Garden" is right up in the air in every way; with fine singing, singing and snapping monologue, and supported by as strong a chorus as it would be possible to get together, it goes over with the proverbial "King" hang, and the great Monday night audience only createt the hollie appreciation. This singing hollies this engagement are better than ever and add in a fine manner to the attractiveness. Among the songs offered are included "Good Bye, Sweetheart," opening chorus; "Mother's Reward to Her Son," James Brown; "Can't Be Born," Billy King; "Tishamong Blues," Genevieve Storm & Co.; "For You a Rose," Ethel Reed; "How'd You Like to Call Me Daddy?"

It is a play of intrigue and mystery and tells a story showing to what depths a man will fall upon an imaginary enemy, even when the latter is only following the dictates of the law which he has sworn to uphold. In the story we find an upright, honest district attorney, who five years previously had sent a man to the court to have his man's brother, "The Master Mind," arrested or wrong, attempt to "get even" in many ways, but without success. At last he hits upon a scheme to pick up a beautiful girl and establishes a family for her out of crooks he has in his power; then he makes it possible for the district attorney to meet the girl, who is a criminal, for whom the "Master Mind" has established a criminal record unknown to the girl. Constant association between the district attorney and the girl ripens into love, and when the former reaches the height of his power, career, as well as his heart's desire, the old love and hand of the girl the "Master Mind" springs his revenge. Columns could be written about this interesting play, but justice could not be done to the plot and characters. As George site said, "You may devote page after page to the author's plot, but the author's plot; the only way to thoroughly get the meaning of this psychological phenomena of a man's mind and the strong and enjoyable story of this, one of the best plays I seen in years, is to go and witness it."

"THE TWO GUN MAN" Wm. S. Hart as Hero in "The Bargain" Presents Unusual Western Picture Lovers of the West and of western stories cannot fail to be interested and thrilled by the W. H. production, featuring William S. Hart as "The Two Gun Man" in "The Bargain," which will be shown at the States theater the three last days of this week, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, June 7, 8 and 9. The scene is laid in the Grand Canyon of Arizona in the days of the old West. Directed by Thomas Ince and starring Mr. Hart, none of the overdone stagnness which is so prevalent in many of the present day screen dramas depicting the life of the old pioneer days can be detected. It is a study of conditio as they wore, exact in every detail, and critics have pronounced it one of the best pictures of its kind ever released. Hart in the character of Two Gun Stokes, the bandit, does some of the best work of his career, giving a charming account of a desperado of the mining peril, which is little short of a work of art. The picture is one that presents a problem and a solution in which every American cannot fail to be interested, for the atmosphere of the play is admiratory. Mr. Hart's admirers will not disappoint in the latest effort of the famous portrayer of western roles. Don't miss seeing it. JAMES W. GERARD From July 23, 1913, to Feb. 4, 1917, Mr. Gerard was ambassador at the German imperial court, and reliances may be placed upon the pictures of his scenes shown in "My Four Years in Japan," which comes to the Pleckford theater for two stay the last of next week.

Hart, the western atmosphere is well sustained in "The Tiger Man," which comes to the Pickford theater on Sunday, June 9, and the story is a great one. During the early fifties a wagon train is lost in the desert. Among the emigrants are the Rev. Luke Ingram and his young wife, the former in mining camps. Hawk Parsons, leader of an outlaw band, makes an escape from jail with his companions. He finds Ruth praying alone, leaves the bandits and guides the wagon train out of the desert. Ruth's husband is in the desert. The outlaw Indians, who were beaten off temporarily, Soldiers in search of Hawk are seen approaching in the distance. The outlaw refuses to allow a signal to be made to them unless Ruth goes away with him. She consents in order to take her to the town where his hut up in the mountains. He frustrates an attempt she makes to kill herself, becomes conscience stricken and takes her to the town where he escaped from jail, where her husband is now pastor of a church. Gamblers in town, but Hawk gives himself up to the sheriff on condition that he and his men protect Ingram and his wife. Ruth is restored to her husband and Hawk goes to his cell, happy in the thought that he has sacrificed himself to the woman he and learned to love. This picture must be seen to be appreciated.

This work is maintained with the help of local committees. One of the ways in which these local committees are co-operating most effectively with the camp forces is in the securing of teachers of French and other subjects. The men are eager to prepare themselves for the time when "somewhere in France" they will meet the men whom they are to fight side by side. In many cities are making this possible by providing teachers not only at the camps but in the communities. Atlanta, Ga. for instance, is furnishing French teachers for the Y. M. C. A. for American students in Birmingham, Vt.; Charleston, S. C.; Chicago, Ill. (where a five-hour trip is involved for the teachers going to Highland Park; Indianapolis, Ind.; Pensacola, Fla.; San Francisco, Cal.; Spartanburg, S. C.; St. Paul, Minn.; and many other cities are performing similar services. In Alexandria, I.a., a grammar school has been opened in the evening for classes in French and history. In the morning, the school offers an attempt to supply the educational material necessary for the 200 men enrolled in classes in camp, many of whom can neither read nor write.

PAGE FIVE HERE IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR YOU TO GET WEALTHY! WE ADVISE YOU TO BUY ELBERFELD CHEMICAL COMPANY'S STOCK NOW FOR BIG PROFITS Because you will share in the profits of an enterprise that will manufacture over 125 SEPARATE PRODUCTS, for which there is a large, ever increasing market, constantly repeating orders for goods on which there is a positive profit of from 100 to 300 PER CENT. There are 600,000 STORES in the United States in which Sanspar, of which we are the manufacturers, can be sold. If only 100,000 sell only 5 cans per week, we would make a net profit of $1,000,000 per year on this product alone. The above figures for 100,000 stores at 5 cans per week would mean an output of 21,050 tons a year. The company owns enough raw material to take care of this output for the next 50 years, and can purchase fifty times this amount for a very small figure, as it is only by the Elberfeld Process that Sanspar can be made.

The Cubans have been here and sent away with one game under their belt, while Rubie Foster took them, coached, and even took them through the field, say they can take the Sunday game away from Rubie, since they have John Donaldson pitching for them. Now it is the middle man, and now Donaldson with Taylor's club do the trick? We have Whitworth with us who will pitch with such pitchers as Joe Williams and Padron helping them. And again there is young Williams, who is every year being helped by Taylor has been affected by the draft. In his line-up are Ben and John Taylor, first and second baseman; Cunningham, second baseman; Foster, pitcher; Padron, pitcher; Malherre, third baseman; Lyons, right field; Shively, left field; center field; Warfield, shortstop. The Indianapolis team is a formidable organization to be reckoned with and the contests herefore have been Giants. With the addition of Donaldson they look dangerous. They will find plenty of backers. So will the Giants. A great crowd, the biggest in the league, will know that these two clubs last year broke the semi-pro record, it is advisable to get tickets early. Have the exact money ready, including war tax, and saving money in confidence, holding your custom up while you count your change. There will be four entrances to the ground stand.

Cabell was once rated the iron man of the border lighthearted. Marley was rosted in a bounty dish at the auburn in a bounty promoted by Joe Kale, when he kayed Cabell in eight rounds. Johnny Simpson, managing Carlson, escaped the auburn. As the bout was decided, it was a tame affair with Cabell proving the aggressor all the way. He ran the ring, all over the ring, and when boxing in close Carlson repeatedly raised his right knees towards Cabell. Once or twice he jabbed his foot or knee into Cabell's chest, and repeatedly cautioned by "Referent." Finally, in the sixth round, Armstrong disqualified Carlson for indulging in the French methods of boxing in a Queensberry rules. Carson was booted from the arena.

TO GROW LONG STRAIGHT HAIR You Need a Real Scalp Food There are so many so-called hair growers on the market, a large number of which are nothing more than perforated hair ties, and so people get discouraged and do foul hair tonics.

It is a scalp food; it stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, causing a natural growth of long hair.

Tells Story of Assault "It was about 9 o'clock," said Miss Blanche Wood, with tears filling her large, round eyes. "We were sitting on the benches along the walk just outside the barn, and we noticed a crowd of about 50 white boys approach one couple, and after heating the boy, seemingly almost unconscious, they overtook just south of the boathouse. She seemed to make a struggle and they throw her into the lagoon, and they were unfortunate which they encountered. We became frightened and started for home. The gang noticed this and ran out. In the confusion we became surprised. Stumbled over the body of my sister, who lay grooming from the effects of stinging on the heat, by something else placed her up dazed and we went home." On the Sunday previous to this attack the unconscious body of a boy, whose name the police are withholding, was found in a dark case, was found in one of the dark recesses of bushes surrounding the boat-house. His body was badly bruised and his clothes rent. After being given attention he was taken to his home.

The Defender takes the position that our people in their securing of employ-ment positions, the white people and the prairies and shoot down the early settlers." We counsel that in the disposition of positions, the white people and the prairies and shoot down the ever line of work they are employed. No self-respecting set of our people should permit themselves to be employed. The position which has discharge all of their white employees for the sake of employing us. Let these positions be divided equally; let the heads of the departments be divided equally, and there will be harmony among those who are employed. The position which has discharge no more than you are willing to give. In cases of department stores and hotels discharging all their white help it would seem feasible to come to the ground and divide the work equally.

We are some good reason—that every friend, selfish motive, and we kill off men that would blossom into helpful flocks. To the meetings we hold of our invitation, men and women of the selves true blue to our cause. Immediately our speakers open up a tirade and certain classes in certain sectional light in making those present feel for the acts and utterances of every guest are handled much as if the "now I've got you what are you, never to occur to these self-styled ones of these white people signifies in hearty accord with the propaganda. We need friends, perhaps my group of people are sufficient unto us not in our hands, so we must still slightly due us; we cannot demand enough behind the demand to make where credit is due, by welcoming it who knock at our door, it must not or losing one whit of our manhood that is why they are great.

"That is wonderful," as the case may be, but not wonderful if it is. And we take this sop, smack our lips and swell our amplified something. Mostly this war is knocking a great many frail skin, sympathy and tolerance no longer play a prominent existence. The business world is asking for men, real women. It is not asking what to do; the color of the skin is no guide to the kind of that skin. The employer, if he has prejudice, would have the coin of the realm flowing like that is all too common, of looking upon all wicked enemies. We are suspicious—perhaps reason—that every friendly move they make is active, and we kill off many of our friends in a blossom into helpful flowers. Meetings we hold of various kinds very often in men and women of the other race who have paid value to our cause. Imagine their feelings one person open up a tirade against the white people classes in certain sections in particular. They are taking those present feel that they are directly and utterances of every other Anglo-Saxon one are handled much as a cat handles a corner; we got you what are you going to do about it" and to these self-styled Race defenders that the white people signifies their friendliness and cord with the propaganda as expressed by the good friends, perhaps more now than we ever people are sufficient unto themselves. The law now hands, so we must still ask and plead even more; we cannot demand, for a demand imply, and the demand to make it a command.

In fact, we are not particular about looking for them, even those of us who have the temerity to acknowledge we have faults. There is such a thing as receiving too much praise of the veneer sort—the patronizing kind—the kind that measures our success by one standard and the white man's by another. "That is wonderful for you, or your people," as the case may be, but not wonderful if the other fellow did it. And we take this sop, smack our lips and swell up as though we had accomplished something. Fortunately this war is knocking a great many frail supports from under us; sympathy and tolerance no longer play a prominent role in our economic existence. The business world is asking for men and women—real men, real women. It is not asking what you are, but what can you do; the color of the skin is no guide to the qualification of the bearer of that skin. The employer, if he has prejudice, is forced to bury it if he would have the coin of the realm flowing his way. We have a habit that is all too common, of looking upon all white faces as real or possible enemies. We are suspicious—perhaps not without some good reason—that every friendly move they make is prompted by a selfish motive, and we kill off many of our friends in the budding that would blossom into helpful flowers. To the meetings we hold of various kinds very often come, at our invitation, men and women of the other race who have proven themselves true blue to our cause. Imagine their feelings on hearing one of our speakers open up a tirade against the white people as a whole, and certain classes in certain sections in particular. They seem to take delight in making those present feel that they are directly responsible for the acts and utterances of every other Anglo-Saxon in the States. The guests are handled much as a cat handles a cornered rat—with the "now I've got you what are you going to do about it" air. It seems never to occur to these self-styled Race defenders that the very presence of these white people signifies their friendliness and that they are in hearty accord with the propaganda as expressed by the speakers. We need friends, perhaps more now than we ever did, for no group of people are sufficient unto themselves. The law-making power is not in our hands, so we must still ask and plead even for the things rightly due us; we cannot demand, for a demand implies strength enough behind the demand to make it a command. By giving credit where credit is due, by welcoming into the fold all, regardless of color, who knock at our door, it must not be understood that we are truckling or losing one whit of our manhood. The greatest stoop to conquer—that is why they are great. Contact means everything. As the poet says, "If I knew you and you knew me, how different everything would be." We must hold the mirror up before ourselves occasionally, and, perhaps, we will see our imperfections and come to realize that the other fellow isn't always to blame. If all white people were open or secret enemies, as some of our near-orators would have us believe, small chance would we have of receiving any consideration at their hands. Where the Blame Lies THE THROWSING OF A DEADLY lens on Vincentow's avenue recently and some avenue by some lawless persons this particular time. Our system of no civilized world, our primary purpose to make democracy safe the work referred to can be committed with impled, democracy is not safe even impled, our government, national law at the South and mob violence at the not strictly true, because to our perils—white and Colored—are law abiding such as those above referred to to be expected. No great harm could be apprehended and punished alone, cannot done it is a serious itself and cannot be punished ending unless every citizen thereof secure in the exercise and enjoyment, that the great majority of people of eag and law observing and desire that GROWING OF A DEADLY BOMB at a building occupies avenue recently and the stoning of another by some lawless persons was extremely hard a long time. Our system of government is practically a world. Our primary purpose in entering the press is democratic safe the world over. But if acts like can be committed with impunity in any of our lawless are not safe even upon our own soil. We will be impressed by a government, national, state and local which truth and mob violence at the North. Of course, true, because to our personal knowledge the great and Colored—are law abiding and law observing of those above referred to can be occasionally committed. No great harm could result from them if the shendled and punished according to the forms of it and not be done it is a serious reflection not only upon the government every citizen thereof can be judged. Every exercise and enjoyment of life, liberty and prop up majority of people of every race in this country observing and desire that every citizen shall enjoy THE THROWING OF A DEADLY BOMB at a building occupied by citizens on Vincennes avenue recently and the stoning of another building in the same avenue by some lawless persons was extremely unfortunate, especially at this particular time. Our system of government is practically on trial before the citizen world. Our primary purpose in entering the present world war was to mobilize the resources of our country. But if acts like those above referred to can be committed with impunity in all of our large cities, then, indeed, democracy is not safe even upon our own soil. The public at home as well as abroad will be impressed with the belief that our government, national, state and local, is one which tolerates lynch law at the South and mob violence at the North. Of course we know that this belief is because to our personal knowledge the great mass of people—white and Colored—have been and are observing citizens. That acts such as those above referred to can be perceived, perhaps, is to be expected. No great harm could result from them if the perpetrators could be apprehended and punished according to the forms of law. If this cannot be done it is a serious reflection not only upon the government itself but upon the masses of our people. No government is worth defending in the exercise and enjoyment of life in the country. We repeat, the great majority of people of every race in this country are lawful and law observing and desire that every citizen shall enjoy his rights and privileges without lawless interference. The lawless acts referred to demonstrate not only the necessity for national legislation to cover such offenses, but also the creation and maintenance of a public sentiment throughout the country which will make possible the rigid enforcement of the same. The best and most effective channels through which this can be done are the public press and the pulpits of the different churches. The observance of the gospel is deemed and held by every editor and every minister of the gospel as being a necessary and fortunately true that too many of these supposed molders of public sentiment are makers of public sentiment. They not only follow popular sentiment, but many of them follow the same even though it be a sentiment which justifies violence. Let us hope that there will be a radical improvement along these lines. In the meantime, having destructive bombs should identify themselves with the United States army, so their ability in this respect can be utilized upon the enemies of our country. The Director General's Order IT WAS VERY GRATIFYING to see in the order of Director General McAdoo the announcement that there shall be no distinction or discrimination in pay for railroad employees based upon race or sex. In other words, where women and those of Color are employed they shall receive the same rate of work as him in paid or white men. We congratulate the Director General upon and thank him for just decision. Right here we would like to advise some of our men to learn the trade of engineer so they can share in the larger profits of the railroad business. A RAT FIGHTS HARDEN when cornered. Germany, realizing that she is up against a touch proposition and that it is only a matter of time when she will be in the discard, is making supreme efforts to break our lines and reach Paris, a feat she will never be able to accomplish. The allies are far from being discouraged over the loss of ground or men and are pouring shot and shell into the enemy at a rate that cannot help but bring results. IF THE ROUGH ELEMENT on the South Side think they can pull off the same stunts in Chicago that their brothers in Georgia do they are very much mistaken, for we are an entirely different breed of critters.

It is expected this will be one of the largest and most successful de- monstrations the Race has made in the country since our entry into the war. General societies and other organiza- tions of the philip will join in a mammoth parade, with the re- sults to be an object lesson in lea- sured those white organizations which have insisted in placing Negroes on the end of the line when they have accepted invitations to march with them. 500 Men to Be Called St. Louis, Mo. June 7—According to advice from Jefferson City, this state will be required to furnish 500 men June 19. These will be sent to Camp Finston, Kansas. Six thousand men, white, will go to Camp Pike, Ark.

Drilling of men who expect an early call under the draft regulations continues regularly in all the wards of the city, the best drill masters of the Race. It will take long to whip these next men into participation will also stand an excellent chance to secure something above the rank of private. The Battle Over Here There are just as many battles to be fought right over here As are their fights in the Europe. And they're quite as cruel, I fear. There are battles in the Southland Twixt the black and white today. Hard, unjust and never equal. Where the black men always pay. Yet how few there are who utter Words of censure and despair To the South, that's full of pity For the poor boys "over there." Suspects we see in order Our surroundings are hard. Ere we talk of winning justice In a dear but distant land. Can we teach the Hun the mercy that at home we sadly lack? Will we learn laddies Be received, when they back In the South as friends and brothers? Will injustice wholly die? So when the tears are falling For those others who are dear, Dear friends and mercy You can give right away If it's grief sincere you're showing For the victims of the Hun, You will love your darker brothers And be kind to them EDNA PERRY BOOTH 514 Prospect Fl, Brooklyn, N.Y.

Wilbèrforce Williams ing the people than any other people on the face of this earth, the Colored people lead in these foolish fields of amusement and in entertaining—why should we not drive the drive of a Baby Welfare Week and raise money among themselves and other friends and well wishers for the purpose of giving the poor and unhappy children among the two may's children the warm summer months? Why not have a center where the mothers and others responsible for the child may come and get fresh, cold milk or a piece of the child during the summer months? We know that you will claim, if you take the initiative in establishing a child's welfare station, if you take the lead in getting together nickels and dimes, if you take the lead in poor, little children milk and ice, that some fool will say that you are drawing the color line; you will say that you are paying taxes and that you should not do anything for your own, you will be drawing the color line. This is not the Hebrew race is one that the colored Americans should study and try to emulate the thrift, economy and the charitable methods instituted and carried out by them for their own race. You are not the nation, the state, the city and community and yet they have ways and means of looking after their poor, sick and unfortunate, and no one accuses them of drawing the race line. Losses are largely like an individual. When you take care of himself economically, educationally, socially or otherwise, the world is always ready to hand him something on a silver platter. When you show to the world that you are or that you are willing to make your own, you are observing and upbuilding of the children among you, the world will gladly assist you in your noble work. Too many young children are allowed to play ball, marbles, hop-scotch and other forms of play in the streets. Parents, you should instruct your children to play on the sidewalks if they must play in the street, but it is far better to play in the yard in our back yard, in the vacant lot—which is better than playing in the street. Hardly a day passes without report of some automobile accident of a child being injured while playing out in the street. If you have no back yard, then you should that your children use the playground in the park. It will pay you to spend car fare for them to spend a few days each week in the park. Another reason for keeping your child or children out of the public streets is to protect them from bad weather, such dirty, filthy language on the street, and used by individuals that are less than men and women. Then, too, the air in the streets is bad for your children; there has a much dust and dirt which has a bad smell under the protection of the police, thus preventing mobile and other vehicle accidents. Out in the park the air is invigorating; there the children are closer to nature and is a general beneficent and unifying effect on the whole nature of your child. Join this drive—push it along. We want all the mothers and good citizens of this community to join in the Week Drive. Lend your presence, give your time and put both shoulders to the wheel and push together, for it is a good, praiseworthy cause. A great many new people have come into this city, in fact, this year the first summer in Chicago. They will find different, living in a large, crowded city, rearing a family, from what they have been accustomed to in the rural districts or some sparsely settled section of the country. Some of these people have been children, the oldest of them 10 years old and the youngest one 8 months old. These parents must be taught and assisted in getting started—they must be taught the laws of hygiene and sanitation, they must be taught the benefit of the physical, mental and moral conditions of the children. They should be bathed frequently, its hair combed each day, the children must taught the use of the toothbrush to go out to school should be allowed to go out to street or to school with a dirty face, hair and soiled clothing, without a good, warm breakfast in its stomach. Remember, it is eminently proper and that we give conserve the health and welfare of the child, especially during these war times, that you do your bit in the Baby Welfare Drive and not stand back on the color line, for while you are standing there, the children are starving and many dying with the harvest is great. Will you give, will you help? Come forward and aggrite in the shekels for Infant Welfare Week. Sunday, June 2, Mr. James DeMercer of 2841 Michigan avenue gave a delightful motor trip with his powerful Hippopotamus to a few friends, consisting of Miss Dawson, Messrs. Ted Dawson, Henry Williams, John Doyle and Z. Kirtlebaum. Then went twenty-second street to Lawrent, and on the way back were agrestly smitten with a sumptuous feast on the roadside, where they had ice cold drinks and such appetizing eats. After lunch the party went in search of foods through the vast fields of meadows and woods and returned with a few sweet williams and a handful of live snakes. Mr. DeMercer and Mr. Dawson intend to raise the snakes and in future become renowned charmers. The scenery was superb, the cost excellent and the trip was enjoyed and appreciated by all.

"Congratulations Jones, Mrs. Idy Tapler and Mr. Genevieve Coleman chairman — Adr. This is Baby week, beginning Sunday, June 2, and ending Sunday, June 8, and it is hoped that much money will be raised and many wholesome methods he instituted for the purpose of preventing among children under the age of 5 years and greatly reduce infant morbidity. We understand that the mother and the woman's committee of national defense have launched a program with the aim of saving the lives of 100,000 children DR. WILLIAMS under 5 years of age. We see no reason why women, who are not members of the committee of national defense, should not launch a program that the purpose of saying many thousands of women should get together, have meetings, group gatherings in every community of the large centers of population for the sole purpose of educating young mothers and those who have care of children in the best methods of preventing the various diseases that children are most likely to contract during the summer season To the Women Many of us have boasted for many years of our great advancement in civilization; in fact, some of our lighted orators with more lung capacity and more intelligence of our pleasure in making the unthinking class of Colored people believe that they have made more progress along all lines of civilization than any other or people on the face of this earth. You know, the people your hands and throwing up your hat in the air, feeling so good; but did you ever stop to think that such unreasoning, laudatory claptrap has done more progress and in fact such playing to the audience caused many of you to overlook and neglect the many duties that lie at your door? that it has made you negate the proper utilization of your present office in a faint way for the remote instead of caring for the present? Your Babies Why cannot the Colored people, since they have made more progress than any other race of people on earth, over 60 years, and since they have more Sunlight than any other uniforms, gold and silver swords waving in the air, bands of music delight- RACE CONSCIOUSNESS No great thinker can be properly estimated except in relation to his predecessors and contemporaries. Measured by these, man must stand either inferior, equal or superior for oriel of thought and power of exposition. It must be known that of every race to enlist its energies for what it deems to be right, rather than to disavow all responsible action because such action may appear to be foreign to his own interest. It is needless perhaps to point out that any man who is not a predecessor or nation may be called to go in a crisis which calls for blood and suffering is only the filtering process which ontites such race or nation to a distinctive place in history. Therefore it is indeed encouraging to Race men of the past to engage in activity on the part of their followers in the world's struggle for the ascendancy of democracy. Not since Europe was reorganized by the peace of Westphalia in 1848 has there been such far reaching and abnormal abnormalities as there are today, challenging the opinion of mankind. Our group of citizenry has been called upon to give its best in mind and material to the final consumption of the world democracy, and for the first time to struggle our Race group has been called upon to take a potent and distinctive position, both in thought and action, which will in the ultimate end be a seat in the council table in the new adjustment of the world's civilization. Fortune for us as a group, we are prepared to meet this day and offer ourselves to the standpoint of numbers, but from the point of loyalty to the ideals of American citizenship as well. We claim to be easily the peers of any of the many groups who are marshaling their forces for the defense of democracy. Our place in this great struggle is unique for many reasons, and chiefly so because the principles of equal justice to all and special privilege to none are fundamental to conduct of our government when questions of our group have arisen for just determination. Yet, notwithstanding this frettable fact, from the rudged routine of daily toil to the battle clan call to the fields of carnage and death, citizens has vindicated their blood bought enfranchisement and has unwittingly uphold the highest tradition of American democracy. It may here be added that it is easy to perceive how a race group possessing such a lifelong lease of the rights of citizenship has fervor of enthusiasm carry the virtue of its extremity, which is self-neglect. This is truly what has happened to our race group. It has led to their failure to rise to the level of their or group consciousness; it has led to their consciousness; it has led to the whims of those who interest in the whims they have so loyalty served. Wherever there is disunion and detachment, such as that springing from a lack on the part of any group to the rest of the forest is not only necessary to itself, but imperative to the welfare of the general group. There will be fallu such a divided group all the evils which come from the lack of recognition and repression of the acumen of government whose foundation is the quality of its citizenship. Not the least of such evils is the inability to rightly appreciate and value group representation. Again, the division of the group prey to the leaders of the stronger ones, who like liberal thought and patriotic sight in providing for the strengthening and encouragement of the weaker way of civic reward and just recognition. We must reiterate that today we occupy an position and unique, place in that we are prepared to sit at the council table and aid in the determination' of these matters of necessity must arise, calling for final judgment and accurate analysis.
