Relatives Bid 4,000 Draft Men Good-Bye CHICAGO HEARS FROM EIGHTH REGIMENT EXTRA Honor Men Off to Camp Four thousand honor men with steady footsteps and solemn tread marching to the strains of the martial music of war bid mothers, wives, sisters and friends good-by beginning last Friday, Saturday and Sunday and entrained for Camp Grant, Rockford, Ill., where they are to prepare for the most strenuous ordeal which will take them across the seas. The occasion of their departure as those who are the long remembered by those whose privilege it was to see the boys off. Mothers and sisters stood watching the long processions with those who were filled by, believing in many instances that this light for democracy meant that the purchase price must be paid for the sacrifice by some of their loved ones. Speakera Give Encouragement A suitable program for the occasion of each departure had been carefully arranged and participated in by such representative citizens as Congressman Martin B. Madison, State Senator Simmons, and Oklahoma City, Okla.; Alderman Anderson and Jackson, Mrs. Booker T. Washington, Mrs. Ora Brown S. Richardson, Ms. Asa E. Carter, Carter, Mass., W. D. Cook, Dr. J. C. Anderson, Rev. McCrackin, Rev. J. F. Thomas, and Dr. A. J. Carey, chairman of local board. No honor memorial was admired by the variably named board, the established traditions of their people and to guard "Old Glory" through all of its perilous trials. One of the most important efforts forth to fight for democracy those whom you leave behind will use their best office in seeing that your relatives, wives, sons and daughters will enjoy the fruit of American democracy at home. Many of them might yell from the tremendous throng. One draftec exclaimed in loud tones: "Give us a chance over there to see you." The moment carries the conviction of the many thousands who rallied to the cause. It was indeed an imposing process- sion to see these thousands of men with smiles upon their faces kissing their loved ones good-by going forth to the church and establishing a lush our rights to a respectable place in the international "Sun." Local Boards Do Excellent Work The work done by the local boards in handling the draft situation is to be commended. Dr. A. J. Carey, chairman of Local Board No. 5, the only person of our Race holding such an office in the country, assisted by William J. Hannessey (white), secretary, Mrs. Mary I. Dinglespeel, clerk, assisted by Miss Magnolia Lewis. The number of members of the board in making every possible provision for the quick dispatch of business typifies the excellent methods exercised by its officers. Local Board No. 4, presided over by Dr. A. R. Johnston (white), chairman: Charles B. Travis, secretary; William Slack (white), member of board, and Beatrice Y. Thomas, clerk, has accomplished a greater volume of work than any of the local boards operating in the city, the区级机构, the county, the county of which has given universal satisfaction to the honor men of their district. Mr. Travis has worked uneasily in a courageous manner to satisfy the obligation he owed to the government, as well as the obligation he owed the people he was called upon to serve. There has not been a time since the opening of Local Board No. 4 that he has not been present from early morning to late morning. He has, however, a light engaged in a zealous endeavor to carry out the mandates of the government. His work has received the approbation of the many friends and relatives of the honor men. It is to be noted with some degree of pride that while Mr. Travis is "Doing His best" on this side of the waters, his son, Corporal Clyde Travis, is serving his country in the local council.

The total linear feet driven by Capt. Burwell was 14,800. The latest world record was made on Group No. 5, Shipway 46. Capt.

At 2:30 o'clock Bob Church Elect Committeeman Bob Church Elected National Committeeman; Koens Defeated Memphis, Tenn., Aug. 10—Robert R. Church and his Lincoln League, embracing the leaders in this city at the rally, held at the women, snapped the political chains of the south at the election held Thursday. Every candidate supported by the Lincoln League except one, Ed Bell, was elected. The suit case Democrats and backsliding Republicans got cold feet, as would the women, forced to go to the ring with Church. At the last minute his managers pulled Barker down, as the Defender said would be done, leaving Mr. Church and Sam Barker for membership on the Republican state committee and primary board. A Memorable Day The Commercial Appeal, as usual, made its dirty appeal to race hatred would be done, leaving Mr. Church the day before election. The first little press "me-toed" the old journalistic harlet, but the first-class white people of Memphis and Shelby county few days before they had seen a thousand Race boys march away to die for even the no-accounts like the grammarless editors and white dye dealers fasten their fangs in the throats of CHICAGO, AUGUST 10, 1918 A Memorable Day 170 piles had been driven and the standing record smashed. When the world's record mark was passed the crew shouted in glee, and although pretty well tired out they started in again with renewed vigor. One after another the crew jumped into the earth, and as each pile was driven to its required length the little whistle on the engine rooted a cheery blast to the tired workers. The crew started in to drive the piles at 7 o'clock and worked until noon, when a half hour was taken for lunch. Just as they reuprented to their task the crew worked in the heavy downpour. An hour later the sun came out again, and after this dark clouds appeared on the horizon and another storm broke loose. At 4:35 o'clock in the afternoon it was found that all of the piling of the ship had been driven, and as there were no other piles to be driven work was started. The crew worked in the cornmen and cheered and patted on the back. All of the members of the crew were THE CREW young Race men and women. young Hace men and women. When the best among both races stood together against the Tate-Hayes-Mooney combine.

Organization is vindicated. Church Committseeman Robert R. Church is now the only Race man in Tennessee having membership on the Republican state committee and state primary board.

J., Aug. 9.—What was known as the most harmful method resorted to in order to evade the draft law was uncovered here last week when secret service officers raided the home of Mrs. Elizabeth Johnson. She was arrested and charged with selling a powder to men of draft age, which when applied to the eyes caused an inflammation resulting in their rejection. Thirteen young men of draft age were found in her house undergoing treatment, and several letters were found from men in all parts of the country in information concerning the "Draft Powder" as it was commonly termed.

FINAL EDITION Only One Death Since They Left America REGIMENT MAKING HISTORY SATURDAY en Good H REG Only One Dea Left A REGIMENT MA BY SERGT. E. A. TOOKE Somewhere in France, in Active Service, American Expeditionary Forces, July 7.—Dear Editor: You have no idea how glad it makes me feel to be given assurance that I can send in an order for Defenders with a meager possibility of receiving them. How are you and members of your staff, and your office force? Seeing line, although at the present moment I am lying prone in a trench with one hundred yards in front of the enemy. Most of our boys are well, and all join in sending a word of greeting, of our own, to the enemy. Many of us never realized just how good it was to be an American until we got "over here." more hospitable people than the French in the world. We all are trying to learn French, while all the French are picking up Americanized English. The Eighth have been a number of places where some privateations and hardships in our clashes with "the guerrillas of war," but nevertheless we still stand pre-eminent as segment of fighting men. Of course, the final sequence of our situations, there have been many changes in the personnel of each battalion of the regiment, consequently each company and squad. If it may, we will be to America will be the Eighth Illinois bringing home the "bacon." Many of the boys receive no mail, and have them cheered a bit by requesting those who may be interested in the Eighth Illinois to drop a line to any or all of the soldiers whose names I shall If you could see some of our boys when mail is being distributed and note that longing—hoping against hope—expression on their faces when tones of sadness are heard, no letter or even a card for them. It is a heartrending skid to behold. Then, too, there are some of us who have lost father, mother, sister or brother or wife, and we are dear to them, who have departed this mundane sphere since we left America and of whom they have received no answer. A day to be exact, July 1, 1918, a young man in my company received a belated letter from New Orleans containing a bill from an undertaker for services rendered to a wife deacently. Just think of it now! No news from his wife since he left Camp Logan, March 6, 1918, and to be greeted with such a letter after the service, he will have hopeful anxiety, with no balm for the superhearth舱 the letter caused but the booche shells. "The maddening inception of itself he has no other relative and we have named in my list. Well, enough for that." "The Charcoal Division" is a myth no longer, as the enemy has already been defeated. The slon of the censor I will say there is the 368th, 370th, 371st and 372d are in close proximity to each other—in France. We has one purpose only—to get Kaise Billson's letter. The key to "equal rights for all American citizens in all the states, regardless of race, creed or color." Our mail usually reaches us from sly men, we have written (pardon me, I mean an answer to a letter written, say about, from Paris, France, May 1, 1918, to Paris, France, in Paris about July 1 to 7, 1918, provided it is answered immediately). We are fortunate in having our "Y" RETURNS FOR LUNCH. FINDS WIFE DEAD RETURNS FOR LUNCH. FINDS WIFE DEAD Following a series of fequous quarrels with her husband, Mrs. Jackson Sorrell, 5213 Dearborn street, was arrested on a Saturday morning. Her body was discovered reclining on a blood-soaked bed, where she had evidently fallen follow-up to a violent attack. The blood had dried to a crust when relatives found the body, indicating that the murder had been committed early in the morn- Husband Makes Statement Jack Sorrell, the husband who is now being held in jail awaiting a hearing before the coroner's jury, asserted that he was on the morning of the crime, and when he returned from work for his dinner found her lying in a pool of blood on the morning of the crime, and when the mother of the man claimed that Mr. and Mrs. Sorrell, previous to the discovery of the crime, quarrelled about some money which she had received on Tuesday her daughter took the bank book to work with her. It could not be ascertained as to whether the disagreement over money matters was over, and there were no eye-witnesses to the murderous attack committed. DETECTIVE KYLE ARRESTS CAMP GRANT DESERTER Louisville, Ky., Aug. 9—Wesley E, Gentry, a registrant of Local Board No. 46, Chicago, Ill., and who claims to have been the victim of an assault, was arrested here last week by Detective Frank Kyle, Cincinnati, Ohio, charged with evading the draft. Gentry was called for service by his board and was placed in jail pending word from Chicago, which in all probability will order him committed to Camp Taylor, Ky., as a deserter from the national police department. Deserter captured by Detective Kyle. PRICE FIVE CENTS od-Bye IMENT th Since They america KING HISTORY secretary, Mr. Pierce, who was with us at Houston, Tex., and Newport News, Va. Having arrived in France and locating the Eighth he immediately set out to catch up with us, which proved quite some job, since we have been shifted to a number of different places and have been on every front, which is some distinction in itself. Later on I may be allowed to tell scandling about the hazards and harrow of the great conflict and of the part played by them in whom we are most interested. For the present, I can only say that Franck is beautiful country and every man in the army should have at some occupation from morn till night, except on Dianmei (Sunday), during which day every one attends at the army school, and Logisle. Switzerland is beautiful also, being a participant in this great war, I am afraid that I may disturb the security of our censor should I dissertate on the clash of the armies to say that, "Apres is guerre" meaning "After the war." I'll tell you a few things more. How interesting to describe an air battle or the clash of the armies and members of the Eighth, but just you wait until I get back. I shall send postcards to various officers on request—whenever available. Rev. Braddon is still our "grand old man" and the "premiere" (first) chapter of the armes, in our estimation. Ah! If I were to oratory, or even his descriptive chapter, then, I'd—er—have to get Kaiser Bill just the same. Cost of our officers are still jaunty and commae, as are the French and British. We have met some Italian and Russian troops, not to mention Japanese men (who are breasting this conflict also). Only Lose One Man Somewhere in France July 10, 1918. Mr. John Mallee, 3281 Michigan Avenue. I have been a Frenchman you have wondered why. I have but written sooner but to tell you the truth. I have simply been on the jump line. I and the resilient are in the best of health; in fact, there have not been over forty men sick and but one death since we left home, even as I am writing, the big rums are going back and forth. first French then the German, but we have become so accustomed to the noise we do not pay any attention to, we sleep at night and awaken us in the morning, and during the day the machine guns chime in the chorus. This is a great country. I have seen the herds of goats, cows, and the chickens in the yards, have esten theusage from the rafters and the house, we sleep at night and white wines, to say nothing of the champagne, which you can purchase for $1.40 per bottle; and take it from the French how now. Everywhere, we when we leave every one is sorry to see us go. The French soldiers and people are simply crazy over this realization, and you will find a lunch of French and our men all together, men and women. Today I was the guest of a French regiment present at the presentation of medals for bravery given to a famous French regiment in a very historic spot. How's that for class? It is said before a beautiful country. It is sad to see such fine towns simply ruined by shell fire. In some towns not even the walls are in them. Some towns that are all right. Oh!! Let! Some.

Then he went on to stir them with a plea and prepare them with feathers. The Lincoln League took one man, Condon for assessor, from the opposition. He was the only man on that team. The League took up the cause of Joe Williams, neither ticket. He was elected. The Race had three candidates for magistrate, Brooks and Wilson.

IGNORANT MAN FLEECED OUT OF LIBERTY BONDS Austin, Texas, Aug. 9.—An alleged well-planned, unscrupulous campaign now being waged among members of the military, the government, and southern cities by white men who are seeking to rid them of their Liberty Bonds and War Savings Stamps by unscrupulous schemes, according to reports made by the state, who are exerting every possible effort to end the evil practice. It is stated that, smooth-talking with the state, they have country visiting farmers and laborers who purchased Liberty Bonds and War Savings Stamps and are carrying them to a large stock of cheap watchmen in the state, reported that many thousands of dollars in the hands of the more ignorant ones into the pockets of these swindlers. In many instances cheap sewing materials and war savings implements have been traded for Liberty Bonds, and said that the government is investigating the conduct of these men.

The one thing that stands out is that New Haven lacks a vigorous Race leader, one in whom the Race can trust. That such a person cannot be found among the 9,000 in this city is absurd. He can be found, and he is here; but he has not yet been discovered; nor has he yet come forward. A step in the right direction would have recently when about seven-and-four miles and organized club-members in the Colonial-Era's Rights League of Connecticut. At this meeting, attended by many well-known inhabitants. Willis Lark was elected president, Theo. Thompson Jr. vice president, E. A. Weams secretary and Arthur Bates treasurer. The state of Connecticut, large and prosperous as it is, and though a thousand miles north of the benigned South, has no equal rights law, such as is to be found on the statute books of most northern states. To work up sentiment for the passage of such a law will be one of the activities of this new club. In this city, the Ninth ward is to be held, any way the Race desirés. There are 800 votes in this ward, 1,000 of which are Race votes.

Aug. 9.—This is the title of a new picture just out by the Art Publishing Company, 208 West 6th street, New York. The picture is a reproduction from a painting by a noted artist, one of the Race. It shows our boys in action. It has now been released and a copyright granted. The picture is done in eight harmonious colors, blended so as to correspond with the war sceneries and is 17x21. It may seem to be a little large and unusual, but when one thinks of the tremendous battle being carried on, it would seem as though it were justified in making the size. No person of the Race should hesitate in applying for a copy of this wonderful drawing. This company is the publisher of the picture, "Our Boys." The size of this picture is 16x20, and is a beautiful drawing. They have just put out a new line of postcards of Race troops, showing camp life, drilling, etc., including the two Colored heroes, Johnson and Roberts. Men and women should act as agents for this.

Before this, little preventive, protective and reformative work was done by the Jewish en. The Jewish, Protestant and Catholic people take faithful care of the fallen women. Mrs. Holmes has visually recognized the active civile girls and women, among them the House of Mercy, the Bedford Reformator, House and the Crendenn House. The wood House the attendant claims that the Race girls possess an unwholesome attraction to the white girl and that they remain apart. Few of the institutions wish to accept our women detention home for them, where constructive work can be done, or the percentage will increase. . 40 Per Genf Are Workhouse Inmates Race women form fully 40 per cent of the inmate of the workhouse. To the extent that the women have not served as a restraint for a short time, but they come back, get into trouble again, are arraigned and sentenced to death, and are not at the time of conviction. The tenement house law is generally the charge by which the Race woman is held. The failure of the Tenement House to do so, as well as the lack of the is well known to social workers. One well known apartment in Harlem, 632 Lenox Avenue, has had six apartments. The Tenement House was built in 1981, brought to the night court a, least often women. Some girls young in years, others the hardened type, well known to the court through previous convictes, and are often the men who have had the larger apartment houses under close observation that will sooner or later reveal a harvest of fallen women. The Tenement House is a large, well-known find, the innocent girl caught taking a chance. To the night court comes the drug addict, too, and nine out of the tenement house is the name of the disease. In many instances the prostitutes who use cocaine, heroin and opium, pass the habit to the young prey just initiated into this economic system. The Tenement House is also a nationally one finds a superior type of girl, but the majority are of the poorest class in ways of training. There are many of the men who are of the same dian type, as well as our own American Race women. The delinquent girl generally becomes the prostitute. Ar-guing in 1800, this tenement house was the first to be a house law, and this came with come; still a few come charged with petit larceny. Many of these girls were of respectable families, but they were not the same as themselves with questionable도-people, get into questionable lodging houses and then their downfall is brought about. Now, the Tenement House is the first to have fast passing from the streets of Harlem, and this will bring fewer fallen women. The magistrates and the chiefly are the men who are not the men who are to be realized the need of a detention house for the Race women, where something can be done to assist them to give up the Tenement House. The Tenement House is the change of environment. Now that the worker has been placed in the night court, it is up to the Race people of the Tenement House themselves in self-curing determined to be a "fenders, put on probation, could be taken from their present environment and kept until a home and work could be held for them.

Hilton Prendergast DROPPING MORE WHITE WOMEN Brooklyn, N. T. Aug. 9-The dismantling of the public attitude toward the employment of women on the cars. John P. Coulhill (white), president of the Brooklyn Central Labor Union, says added efforts will be made to hire the company's entire working forces. Thus the agitation waged by white organizations against the employment of white women as conductors on the care is beginning to show results. The court's strict Attorney Lewis concerning the morals of these women so stirred the various white women's clubs in Brooklyn that they immediately began an effort to oal least force the B. R. T. to stop employing more girls in this capacity. No Co-operation Among Race A sorrowful contrast is that of the employment of Race girls, who are being used as porters and assigned to the filthy work of cleaning toilets, washing cuspiders, sweeping dirty stations, etc. When the practice first be-banned, the master of the order raised an objection to this form of employment on the ground that no war emergency was so great as to compel the B. R. T. to offer degrading work of this character to Race women only. We hold that the women who do this dirty work not only degrade themselves, but degrade the entire Race. It is inconceivable that a white girl would even be offered work of this character to the first-class porter. The Defender tried to inter-set an organization that has for its aims the betterment of conditions among the Race in Brooklyn. That organization took up the fight, fired one or two guns, and then, like many other Race organizations, folded its tent and quietly stole away. Next we attempted to stir up enthusiasm in our campa-tion in the churches of Brooklyn. We reasoned that these Race women were not compelled to join the organization, but we thought that an educational talk from the pulpit against this dirty work, coupled with the information as to where the girls might obtain clean employment at wages as good, if not better, than that paid to them as porters, would be healthful in fighting the degrading Race evil. Again we secured half-hearted response and the tent was folded and away they went. Women Porters More Numerous Tham Ever Admittedly there are among the Race many who will do anything once, if not always. Therefore, with no Race organization or church willing to take an active part in the work, women have gradually accepted the degrading work until today, unlike their white sisters, there are more women in the bridge and Race Brooklyn Rapid Transit than ever before. And, unfortunately, the evil is women in the bridge and Race women porters are also there on the lines of the I. R. T. This is an indictment against the many Race institutions, etc., and shows the extent of their real unselfishness to the Race. Carlton Ave. Branch Y. M. C. A. Makes Interesting Report Brooklyn, N.

Big Gathering at Corn Supper MRS: MRS, MRS, Proprietor and Manager Direction—Rework Beach Station or Station or Pennsylvania Railroad Station to Hammers Station THE CHICAGO DEFENDER SOUTHERN TACTICS IN MASSENA New York, N. Y., Aug. 5. - There has been a lot of happenings in Massena N. Y. that might well have came from the lawless state. Georgia, or some other southwestern state. Mr. and Mrs. James W. Holmes, at present confined, illegally, so the story does seem, in a penitentiary at Canton. Arosted in Early Morning On the morning of July 19, Mr. and Mrs. Holmes were awakened from their slumber in the ear of the morning by two police officers who had warrants for their arrest. Holmes had been conducting a pool parlor, lunch room and cigar stand at 117 Center street. They also had a social club there, where the Race folks used to congregate for a social evening, and Holmes called it the Jimmy Jack Black Diamond Social Club. According to Holmes, nothing but soft drinks were ever sold there. However, when arraigned before Judge Giles Chase of M.C. was called, the white men scarcely known to Him were so scarcely known to Him, and on their testimony in the place, and on their testimony Holmes and his wife were sentenced to 90 days each in jail and to pay a fine of $50.00 each. They were hurried away, without being permitted to make any arrangement for the carrying on of their business. In sentencing them, the judge is alleged to have said, "You may be a smart nigger, but we don't want any niggers in this town, anyway, and I am going to fix you so much." If any more business in this state," he said, "I judge Chase makes this same remark to every Race man who comes before him. On July 18, fifteen Race men were arrested, charged with gambling, and, without further adj. Judge Chase, says Holmes, sentenced the men to from five to twenty-five days apiece, without allowing them any chance to speak for themselves. Aluminum Company Bringing in Many In Massena is located a large man- ufacturing concern, the Aluminum Com- pany. He brought in a large number bringing in Race men at the rate of 200 per week; and it is thought that the men are being brought in at a labor and transportation laws. Holiday labor and transportation Benjamin. Chase, a brother of the Negro-hating judge, who after send- ing to the people and people affidavit to san, has given notwithstanding the fact that he has been paid his fee. Facts of Case Sent to the Governor The facts in the case were, sent to Governor Whitman by Holmes, and the governor begged Whitman to go beyond that he has done nothing with the case. Another case was cited of a white man arrested for intoxication and sent to the Chase told that if he would testify that he got liquor in Holmes place he would release him on a small fine. The white man refused to accept these conditions and was given a fine of $10.00; but the sentence of 20 days in the jail, but the dealing out justice would be censored, released this prisoner the same day, upon is paying the fine of $10.00. The white man was sent to Holmes immediately and told a old man that he had occurred between him and Judge Chase. On the face this seems to be a fragrant case of mistaken judicial wrongdoing of a worthy of a close investigation by Governor Whitman, with the idea of the expulsion from the 'bench of this state,' and that he really entertains these thoroughly American ideas.

The greatest difficulty at present is in, securing men Among the recreational features of the new building, bowling proved to be the most popular so far, and it is anticipated that next winter the three alleys will be the main demand. The branch will enter the Y. M. C. A. Bowling League next fall. Harlem Women Organize Political Club New York, Aug. 9.

PAGE 8IX Theatrical Review Lafayette Stock Company Is Still Popular; Billy King Packs the Grand BOOST And the World Boosts With You. KNOCK And You Knock Alone. "Bought and Paid For" opened here for the week on Monday to a fine attendance, as usual, and proved to be right up to the high standard all work done by the Lafayette Players. It is a play with a tremendous punch, presented with remarkable effect. The story tells of a poor telephone operator of rare ties for convenience a man of wealth, with the same name, splits the things Teny Langston that the man's mind can bring her she tastes the dregs of unhappiness, and she hushes the husband has finished one of his big dreams and he heaped words of abuse upon her, she leaves him. She does this, much to his surprise, as he had grown to believe that he could have made the girl contented, despite his worship of the "gold calf". She shows that she would rather, after all, be a shop girl than a bird in a gilded cage and an absorbing play that grips you to the point of owls from start to finish, there is comedy enough to keep all smiling, with the exception of a few of the extremely funny drama shows, a comedy drama which surely justifies the wonderful record it made in its two years' run in New York and its fifteen months' stay at one of the big theaters in the loop in our own dew Chicago. The Grand A musical farce is on here, the Billy King Company presenting "Prof. Beaul" an odd but interesting and laugh-producing scene in one laid in and around a summer hut. The prelator has a daughter in an eastern college, and, unknown to her, he has framed up a marriage with a gink that will be a big part of other girl to play a tough character in order to break off the engagement, without her dad's knowledge. During the summer Billy King as Prof. Beaul, a phony book agent, plays his board around the hotel. The fun starts with this decision, and from then on until the happy finish there is "Songs offered during the show are: Sunrise, Opening choir; You Keep Sending Em Over." Billy King: "Katy" James Thomas: "How Can Any Little Girl be a Singer?" Sanders and the grand finale. "Every Peaches in Dixie." Other acts, on the bill are Ellis & Elsworth, hand balances; Sloan & Moore in a song and talk not, and George Mack, a good singing, talking and dansing single. The Monogram Dan Michael's and his "New York Follies" are here for the second week and still making good. This company is near being here, legitimate one as anyewhere, but the one it is is clean and up to the minute. One of the peculiarities of the show last week was the fact that there wasn't a "Blues" number used, which is a step away from the usual. Dan was a class of howl that needed to be "jarred" it is the type of blues that have a suggestive taint in word or rendition, and the sooner they are put in the scrap heap along with a lot of other blues, the more "nightmares" nightmares, the better. Dan has made a step forward along that line and deserves to be commended. The offering this week is entirely different from the others, the furtures have been added. It is a show well worth seeing, and will last to the final curtain on Sunday night. CHARLEY JOHNSON Famous International Performer Completes Second Record Breaking Announcement Charley Johnson, with his Johnson & Dean Review, has completed his second trip to the coast and return, the act having proved to be one of the most successful of his. The Review has made a remarkable record for the year, having closed a twenty weeks' engagement in which it was an added attraction with the Nora Bayes Review, which played a central role in the early last fall. Immediately, in October, to be exact, Charley and his company started over the Pantages time, the tour ending late in February; he was immediately rebooked over the next few weeks. Harris circuit, on both being accorded the headline honors on all bills. The Charley Johnson of Johnson-Dean Revue Review is conceded to be the best singing and dancing act in the world, jazz and pop being the watchword crowded into the eighteen minutes to make it a real "wonder show." Cakewalking by the star and an efficient drummer has crowded this line the famous performer and always has been without a peer. Whole abroad some years ago Charley had a concert with the steward Richard-Richard in his latter line and strutted his stuff before all the crowned heads of Europe. One of the finest honors paid Johnson & Peast, Hungary, where they were met at the station by the Royal Hungarian band, and in the parade which followed. The great act were rendered, including the old time favorites, "Bamboo Tree" and "Bill Bailey, Won't You Please Come Home." The act will rest in Chicago and show the band in an eastern tour which is being arranged by the booking agents. Ben Byron III As we go to press word was received that Ben Byron of the famous Musical Byrons, is lying at the point of death in the hospital. He is for some months and little hopes are entertained for his recovery. Joe Sheftell and his Eight Black Dots are splitting the week between the Proctor theater, Troy and Albany, N.Y. First United States Official War Film "Pershing's Crusaders" Will Take You With the Great General, Step by Step, From Home to the Front Lines in France The world conflict takes upon the nature of a crusade. The Crusaders were the efforts of a new world strivener, a new warrior, a new piracy and a fraternal bloodshed. This idea is shown to perfection in the great picture, "Pershing's Crusaders," which is shown at the Theater on Saturday and Sunday. We go forth in the same spirit in which the knights of old went forth to the battlefield, withstanding the sacrifice, we shall gain from it a noble manhood and a deeper sense of America's mission in the world, of parents and asking, "Why do we bring up our boys?" It is most essential that they see and know the young men of America, who are going to fight for one definite thing, to save democracy from death. This mighty exodus of American manhood to the plains of Europe may well When America entered the war, the government became the largest business corporation in the war. J, with its dusty armies and dusty dusty Ten million questionnaires were sent out by the provost marshal general by which ten million Samhies are made ready to pour out their life and their wealth. Yesterday the open country dotted with peaceful houses, today huge cantonments to house our national army. Of these latter there are 38 built to house the army. Today we are using $1,000,000,000 feet of lumber. The government had to arrange for the clothing of 2,000,000 men. Sixty thousand dresses both wool and cotton there, six hundred and eighty coats in one length of the material, and every woman working in Uncle Sam's service. Shoes for the soldiers is another interesting feature as shown in this great story of facts, as is the preamble to the service. The 6,000,000 meals each day. Every detail for the successful carrying out of our part in the war is shown in this film, from the building of the huge guns and the transfer of the transferring of the them at the front: all the drilling in the smaller arms, as well as the trip across on the transports there are military scenes and action which will make you want to get up out of your chairs and shout with them. You do not doubt be the last chance to see this wonderful feature on the South Side.

Tom says "HANK" BARCLAY Old times among the professionals, both in musical as well as the dramatic libre, are bound to be interested in the important departments of the Michigan State University, concerns a member of the Cin in days Living in Pontiac, Mich., today, a trusted employee in one of the most important departments of the Michigan State University, popularly called in years ago "Hank." At one time, 1896 to 1900, to be exact, "Hank" was a member of the famous Electric Quartette of Cleveland and the band of Henry Johnson at Toledo for a couple of years and then went with the Two Bill Show, remaining with it until 1909, his wife, the former of the summer of 1907. Later he did a vaudeville and concert work, and during his entire career he was recognized as one of the best mandolin players in the country, according to an article in the Paper he is president of the Pontiac Y.

'Pershing's Crusaders' Saturday and Sunday of the present week will bring to the Owl theater the great picture, "Pershing's Crusaders," which is creating a real sensation in the movie world. This picture is released by the United States government through the committee of public information, the purpose being to acquaint the people with the nation's achievements in the war. The picture was photographed by the United States Signal Corps, navy department, and French general staff. It shows in two thrilling hours our industrial and military preparations and takes you with Pershing to our boys in the front line in France. Ship building, aeroplane construction, making the clothes for an army, making its fighting tools from 16-inch guns to rifles, feeding, housing, transport including taking the boys overseas, the navy and its fighting ships, big and little—all are graphically pictured. The pictures overseas are complete and satisfying; they make the cheeks tingle with pride and the graphic portrayal of the coming into France of the American boys is a thing that tightens the throat. It is a picture that must be seen by every patriotic American. You can't afford to miss it.

He finally lands a fellow with a bank roll in the person of Billy King, the great comedian. Bill King, the owner, chances until he gets a flash of a swell looking girl reporter.

The transaction is made, and Bill comes into possession of the paper. He carts it out to write, and as his company isn't long before he finds that he is up against it. His efforts to keep the others from giving him the double cross are so funny that you will double up and fresh one of Bills. It sure is a knock-out.

CHICAGO "Tarzan of the Apes" --- Great Jungle Drama with Robinson Cruseos setting, coming to the book setting "Tarzan of the Apes," in motion picture form, will be seen at the Pickford theater on Saturday and Sunday of this week, which will be its presentation outside the big theaters of the loop. The story takes the form of a jungle melodrama, in which every possible variety of thrill is crowded into a Robbins' setting. It follows the advenience of a baby, who is stolen from his mother by a huge ape and brought up in the latrine of the little witty baby, really the son of a nobleman in England, a faithful servant, who has escaped from a band of Arab slavers, returns home and is restored to him to his rightful position as a wealthy estate. He is folled at every turn by the son of a barmal, the slave who has reduced to defeat. Meanwhile, the heir is still in the jungle, where he spends his time getting the rescuing parties, for his benefit, out of their difficulties. In one of these fights with the entire jungle he save a beautiful malden from a ferocious lion, and a charming jungle cat, and last reel closes with a soutimental fadeaway in which the unwitting hind fuis that ignorance is bliss and that there are many other compensations for a tame cat, all the beasts of the jungle ramp over the screen in the rendition of this feature. The cast includes Eimo Lincoln and Enid Markey, but there are numerous other men there among the greatest acrobats and gymnasts in the world. While the basic idea of the plot may not have been sponsored, Darwin, it is none the less absorbing, and the ground for one of the most interesting and spectacular films ever screened. Don't miss it. The Gainss and the Wells have joined and have the greatest novel in vaudeville. The act is known as "The Cuban Athletes" and will be seen in the Monogram theater next week. They will be in the doublette theater, Detroit, Mich., this week. Alphonse Daudet's great French play, "Sapho," will be the offering of the Lafayette Players at the Avenue theater next week. The story of the play must be well known to most of my readers, but for the benefit of those who are not familiar, we give a short summary: Fanny LeGrande is a Parisian courtesan who has been the playwriting most of the artists and poets of France. At the opening of the play "Deechelette," a young civil engineer, is giving a masquerade dress to her. Here she sees for the first time Joan, a young student, and falls desperately in love with him. The passion in this play is the same as in the movies, and its previews prove. Flamont, the man who is enamored, has committed forgery to keep her in the manner she has been in her life. At its height the officers appear and place him under arrest. The party breaks up. Joan and Fanny are left with a "good night," she complains of weariness and he seizes her in his strong arms and carries her upstairs to her room. The night on the floor is talking of Sapho's new form in love. The fascination exerted by this noted woman of the pleasure world for the young student attracts the attention of his friends and relatives, and every effort is made to separate them, but without avail. He is as madly in love with her as she is with him. Her past history and methods with other men are divulged, but he is headstrong and remains with her until absolutely forced to leave her, which he does after a violent quarrel. He remains away from her for a time but returns. Going further into this fascinating story would rob the looker-on of the pleasure of solving the great dramatic problem himself, a proceeding far from what the Old Roll Top Desk Man would consider a fair one. It is safe to assert, however, that the patrons of the Avenue theater will find "Sapho" a most appealing drama. Will Washington, the Old Timer, has arrived in town after a long trip with a road show. Will was looking as sharp as a tack, and laid it right down on the Old Roll Top Desk, which filled us with glee, so to speak.

Avendorph, Who Is Doing Things for His Race Julius N. Avendorph is one of Chicago's most prominent men and one of the best known in the United States among all classes. He became a resident of Chicago in 1880 and like most of the best known in the United States before securing a position in his first elevator man at the Laud hotel, now the Strattford, but his first position was in the election commissioner's office as vault clerk, through the influence of personal friend, Robbins. He was 4280, the 4280th niece, who was a close personal friend of the late Frank Scales, county judge. He was appointed in June, 1890, and remained until the change of administration on Jan. 1, 1895. His appointment caused much comment and the judge for shortly after death. Mr. Avendorph was appointed in the street department under former Mayor John P. Hopkins as sidewalk inspector, where he remained until the spring of 1896, when another change of administration demanded his presence with the Delvin Co. secured a position with the Delvin Co. in the county ca. 1897, where he remained until Nov. 1, 1897. On Nov. 1, 1897, he presented his present position in the president's office of the Pullman company, through his personal friend, A. A. Wells. It was Mr. Avendorph has been to his several mails put in the service. Several years ago more than fifty students from Fisk university alone were given work on the road during the summer months, which meant much to them in order to enable them to return to school for the recommendation of Mr. Avendorph. Fisk university is Mr. Avendorph's alma mater. Several of Chicago's professional men are indebted to Mr. Avendorph for his assistance during their school days in placing them on the road. C. S. Jackson, the Corp. Exchange National bank. Barry Babcock-Rushston, brokers: J. P. Cooper, Pullman building, H. P. Davis, 3242 Calumet avenue, Merchants' Loan and Trust bank, and the following young men, who are working in the general office of the Pullman company: Gerald White, 3240 Harper, 3510 Prairie road; Reginald and Robert Hardin, 250 East 37th street; Meredith Conley, 3804 South Park avenue; James Hill, 60th and Loomis streets; Lawrence Harrison, 3826 Grand boulevard; Raymond Hall, 3826 Grand Avenue; several other boys who are working districts owe their positions to Mr. Avendorph's influence. Mr. Avendorph realized one of his cherished ambitions when he placed the first Colored boy in the general offices of the Pullman company, the person of Robert Hardin Jr., who is the treasurer office. However, it took fifteen years to do it. Mr. Aventorch is a thorough Race man and the many things he has done and is doing for the Race is sufficient proof to the editor that he is a guarantee of reliability. His name is a sign of reliability in some respects, some acquainted with more Chicago millionaires than possibly any other Colored man in Chicago. He has succeeded thus far in life through his (1) leadership in the job, together his reliable and coordinated effort. He is one man in the city who seems to enjoy the respect of everyone who comes in contact with him. He is a hale fellow well met and one of the best mixers in the world. The Mr. Aventorch founded the proud distinction of being Chicago's undisputed social leader from 1886 up until 1910 and he is still given that credit, as he is the leading figure in all social and charitable affairs of any prominence. A directive he is without an equal and he stands for class distinction at all times. Mr. Avendorph organized and was president of the following clubs until their disbanding: The Original Columbia club, Chicago's most popular club during its life, 1892 until 1902; the Birmingham club first assembly; the Original Chicago Minstrel club from 1885 until 1902; the Benedict club. While he did not organize the Fisk University association he was its president for five years; also chancellor commander of Chicago lodge No. 5, Knights of Pythias, four years later; also president Amateur Managers' Basketball (white) for one year; Edward R. Litzinger was president and former Alderman A. R. Tearney secretary. His latest creation in the social world is the Half Century club, Chicago's most exclusive organization, of which he is and has been president for the last twenty years. He is also amateur baseball player from a standpoint of consecutive years of playing, having played every season for thirty years. His baseball career began in 1887 as third baseman on the Modelat at that time the champion prairie team of Chicago, under the management of M. R. Under the leadership last twenty years he has managed trained and played third base on the Emergencies. Mr. Avendorph will play his farewell game this season in a game for some charity benefit. Mr. Avendorph is a promoter of high class classes on the Defender. His born life THE CHICAGO DEFENDER is an ideal one and he is proud of his family. What Do We Get? (Brave Staff Compensation) The big question to the Race voters of America in the coming campaign is: "WHAT DO WE GET?" Now, it must be admitted, in this "pig iron world" of material results, that is not a bad question. The only trouble is, the brother has not asked that question soon enough. In a great many communities the political leaders have recognized the fairness of justice—to the extent of the situation—and have placed Race candidates on the ticket or have slated them for nomination at conventions or primaries. The country at large looks to Chicago to get the pace. Chicago is doing it right well. Chicago has two aldermanates, one who are demonstrating two valuable pressures and success: First, they are showing real leadership, which also means initiative, not mere rubber stamps; second, they are exhibiting for national as well as local observances of the victories, team work, "Louie" Anderson and "Bob" Jackson work together. They are not envious of each other nor have they formed a "mutual admiration society." They age simply because of the uncommon factor in a great many instances, to say nothing of communities. There's going to be some interesting developments at the polls in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Pennsylvania, New York and Ohio this year. Last year the South has added thirteen thousand of Race votes to the sum total. For more than a year Race leaders in all of the forenamed states have been quietly instructing these newcomers on the importance of voting. The men are all set to cast their ballots, the constitution, legal limitation, principle and determination, and they can be depended upon to "do the right thing at the right time." The Republicans, of course, are counting their support for the voters, but the Republicans will have their eyes and see that other parties are busy among Race voters spreading their doctrines and gospel of justice. This is no time, in the name of the good Lord, to take anything, anywhere, and aid. These are days of upheavals, and a note of warning is here sounded. Cafe Owner Refuses to Serve Wounded Soldiers Sallebury, N.C. Aug. 8—One hundred wounded soldiers of both races who have seen service in France were refused breakfast in a cafe by a white man named Henness. Immediately the colonel, himself a southern man, requisitioned the cafe and called up the civilians to serve the men, following which the Red Cross service section, by Mia K. Edmund C. Gregory (white) daughter of Sensation Coyman, distributed postal cards and chewing gum and other luxuries among the soldiers. When asked by some members of her party if our boys were to be served, she replied, "There was no distinction on the battle front, and there will be no need to will lead the way." This is unquestionable evidence of what the Defender has accomplished in its continual fight for the equality of men. WAR DECLARED ON BAD HAIR! BEFORE AUSTRALIA VICTORY! ASIA MEXICO CALIF.

C PENN RED BEATEN BY SHIPWRE By Dave Wyatt Philadelphia, Aug. 9.—The world's champion aggression of baseball tosses that "Hube" Foster carried out of Chicago, July 24, are at present only a shadow of their former greatness—that is, as far as personnel of the roster of the team is concerned. Grant was sent huck to camp from "Phillie" last Wednesday, and Wickworm and Gans bid us a sad aden Saturday. We ran over to Washington for a Sunday date against the Red Cans of New York leaving Whitworth at Philadelphia for a much more difficult game. We ber our line-up you will at once note that we tackled the New York without a regular pitcher upon the staff, at any rate the pitcher can fields a regular. At any rate the pitcher can slab and turned loose a bunch of books, shouts and slants that had the Westerners baffled the route of the Gators. S. H. Dudley, the theatrical mugate, was host-in-chief during our sojourn on the national capital. "Dud is a great player," he practically a verified fact that he and "Rube" Foster will operate a club at the big war capital next season. Dud was already on the job signing up players. Hilldales Formidable We are at a loss as to how to describe the circumstances leading up to a defeat of our wear-worn and sleepy turb. Arbow we showed a 8-2 defeat over them, opposed on the slab by Cockreller, star hurler of the Hildale sound. We had a return date last week, but Arbow was the of which unimpirical robbery, hostility of the police force and wrathfulness of the crowd—who seemed unimpressed by the factors which aided to no extent to help the Hill-billies to romp off with the contest. Santop, the hurling car, hit the off the dirtest piece of the ground. Garst was witnessed on a ball to this, too, with "Judu" leaving for Camp Gran on MINNESOTA C A C 513 C.'S AN CAPS ARE BY FOSTER'S CHECKED CREW Saturday. Tom Williams started the memorable game for the Hillies, but nucumbre early to the heavy slugging, and empties that is enough to take the heart from a lion. But this gang are putting up a fight with but one bossman and a crippled outfield that is really annexing the admiration of the fans who were formerly hostile to him. They have a string of hard games before them; and dear fans, have no fear, Foster will have a team that will be the best of the bunch. Chief is now in New York gum shooting for pitchers, and we have a ticket to the hands of a first baseman in Texas who is a star of the first water. We tackled Hildalo again Thursday, Aug. 8. **Rodding booked** to work with the U.S. Army in the fight of here Thursday night for Buffalo, en route to Detroit, where we meet C. J. Taylor's Hurs, Aug. 10 and 11. **Rodding booked** to show Aug. 10 in Chicago against the Cubans, twilight games four days at 6 p.m. The Americans will be back at home the home lot the following Sunday. We have played to the largest crowds in our history en route, and Washing-ton interest and lay down of the maxima Wickware, worried over his certain departure for camp, did well consid- eration of the situation. Whitworth took up the burden, "Whit" has been worked inhumanly hard and is danger of the boy being all pitched in the battle. We serve what little strength that is left to the team, so he put broken lines in at Atlantic City, and the ocean "Ruhe" worked eight innings of one game and was not scored on; we were not scored on. **Dunen** can start it and his wildness, together with the fumbles that our boys made on the rough diamond and out- made enabled the Atlantic cities to win, A Game Bunch We have seen rosters fight with eyes punched out, and pugs keep on crying, but stand on it, but say heres' a bunch of stand-ups, so we stand a shower of gaf from travel, heat, loss of sleep and biased fans in the delfts. Pittsburgh is right up with the bunch and better, but there is a world of work there. Sunday ball does not run, and money is too heavy to lay on baseball. Our trip is a great success.

Anderson Stirs City Council in Able Address In the city council on last Friday a special meeting was held, called for the purpose of considering the question of authorizing the attorney specially employed by the city council in the gas litigation to begin injunction proceedings to restrain the public utilities commission from enforcing the increased rate of gas ordered by them after a prolonged hearing. The wisdom of the attorney apparently was not questioned by the rank and file the members of the city council. There were, however, some spirited objections to the continuance of Dondea during the gas litigation on behalf of the city and the 600,000 gas consumers during the past four years. Mayor Thompson, when the session of the council was called, gave a message in which he called the city council's attention to the fact that little or no progress had been made in the lawsuit by attorney Donald Richberg and economist the city council employ new and competent legal counsel. The temper of the city council being then, as being before Thompson, paid little or no need to the city council in his message. When the matter of the resolution was presented authorizing the further employment of Attorney Dondea, the Richberg delivered a vigorous opposition to his continuance as counsel. A stenographic report of his speech by the official stenographer of Dondea furnished the Defender. It follows. ALD, I. B. ANDERSON: Mr. President, this is probably the only opportunity that I will get to express my interest on this question. I quite agree with the communication of the mayor to the effect that the city council in this litigation will be made to the mayor and I have no brief for the mayor nor any one else on earth in what I say in justification of my stand that we need competent counsel to took occasion—the certainly let us since I have been a member of the city council there is no question that has attracted my attention more than the other time. I am not a gas litigation—some time ago to give expression by the city council with respect to this litigation and counsel for the further development of the purpose of going into the details. I really respect to this matter. Yesterday I looked up in this case some of the facts. Now, in effect, we are here to be so only as to direct application of special counsel for leave, or authority, to begin new litigation involving this gas question; and he is not a part of the process of the case certain points of view to his contentions that a bill ought to be filed to restrain it, a public utility commission from enforcing this new case to the public. It is required us, and we are called upon to determine whether or not we should proceed further, and if we are to proceed furthely, and if the method and who shall do it. In the case of the board of directors of a corporation, and we are receiving a report from our lawyer. Any private corporate parties to the site should be liberate carefully upon the question as to whether or not counsel employed by it had done the things required for the case to be made for the best interest of the client. For this case the city of Chicago is the client. Now let us see where we are, where we have gone, what we have and then let us briefly advert to results. (A point of order was raised by Ald. A. A. McCormick to effect that a motion to table was not debatable, and the motion was carried by the president. The motion to table was carried. On the roll call taken on the original motion, in casting his vote Ald. L. B. Anderson resumed and made the motion. ALD. L. B. ANDERSON. Now, Mr. President, we are here, as I started to tell you, in the nature of a board of directors, receiving the report of the president. It is the proper field of inquiry to ascertain what that counsel has done, whether or not he has done it in a manner and in a way that conforms to our notions of what is right. We have expended here in this litigation involving over ten years or more, and we are apprehended, 080, four years of which Mr. Donald R. Richberg has been engaged. The records show that in moneyys paid to him as counsel, and unpaid, for which he was charged, he has paid a sum of $29,843.20. His assistant, Mr. Plumb, has had, and is expecting a total of $29,599.56, making a grand total of $86,426.58, addition to that of $10,000.00, addition to that of $400,000; approximately a half a million dollars has been paid out in this case without any appreciable results. His mitigation pending in the City Court consists of paying the gas company, which sought to have the city restrained from fixing a rate which they contended was unreasonable, and after having gotten it issued, we recently continued to be taken up again when the courts convene in the fall. cross-bill was filed some time ago by the city, and here is something you ought to know. Do not go pell-mell into this thing without being advised. As an ample member of the Cook County Bar Association, I provide information that your high-priced coun- 100 A MAN FROM JUST ONE IS FIGHTING IN FRANCE SHOULD BE SEEN EVERYWHERE THAT RACE PRIDE DWELLS sel has not given you. A cross-bill was filed by the city on behalf of the gas consumers which sought to re-issue a gas company filed a demurrier to the city's cross-bill, which still remains undisposed of. Now, we are supposed to pay the gas company 600,000 and 600,000 due the poor taxpayer—the poor consumers, the 600 odd thousand consumers. Every time we talk we talk to the poor consumer, what has the poor consumer gotten from Nothing but a cross-bill by the city on behalf of the consumers not yet issue, and gentleman and you lawyers, can listen to this; not one consumer—1 repeat, not one consumer in this lawsuit—has intervened in this lawsuit. The only definite amount involved in the cross-bill is $12,754, and that represents the claim of the city of Chicago of Mr. Richberg, if he should be continued in this litigation, the statute of limitations is running, and when we are ready to get in there by way of an intervening petition for consumers. It may be that the statute of limitations be able to recover any part of this will-o'-the-wisp $10,000,000 in pursuit of which we have expended already a proper field of inquiry, and does it require in question of competent counsel? Is it not a matter that we should consider? Is it not really a matter that we should ask for a proper field of determining the question as to whether or not we have competent counsel? Now, we had a case pending before the State Public Utilities Commission, as of the date of issue, right to read when that applied case was intended. Mr. Richberg conceded that the case company was entitled to a reasonable increase. His statement here now is that the effect of this statement here is that they had no jurisdiction here. He is right now he was wrong then he is right now; he was wrong then he is right to take up the question of his competency, for which he is right of him on an average of $18,000 a year up to this time and gotten in return approximately nothing. But take his conclusion that the state of California will receive Commission, and again may I this matter closer to the gentlemen who adhere to the Sullivan faction of the Democratic party? Outside of the record, the control of the State Council, chairman of the State Council of Defense, and Mr. Richberg. Now I hold no brief for Mr. Insult, but Mr. Insult is a more important representative citizens in our common-wealth. When the governor of the state of Illinois, the chief executive of the state's case about, in obedience to the mandate of federal government, for a chairman of the State Council of Defense, he presumably picked the highest commonwealth, and he was picked by the State Council. In its own case, the State Council of Defense. He likewise appointed the members of the State Public Utilities Commission. But in general, the state of the consideration of a cause before the course before any tribunal, when counsel is so indiscreet, so utterly devoid of conclusion for his client, and is so filled with personal and personal�. The case as to the split as to something of say something that Jeopardizes the interests and rights of his client. I say that the case is indisputable in point. When he said to Samuel Insult that the case is a gold-plated anarchist organization, he of a disreputable organization. He charged the governor of the state of California to saving all appointed a disreuptable citizen could be a hereto-deserved of the State Public Utilities Commission sit there, the appointees of Gov. Lowden—could they sit subminely and are not the same charge the level elected as a brother? Could the state be the same governor? Could counsel, after such an insult to the chief executive of the state of Illinois, reasonably except his point of view to favor his side of the case? Beneath the court's name, Subsequent to that, an elaborate brief of the case, the reference again to Mr. Insult's connection of the gas, computer-related anarchist, it is a matter of a old-related anarchist. It is a matter of public notoriety, with very many and many of the people who are the first of the people who can read. That Roger Sulting is a great leader of the board of directors of the People's Gas Light and Coke Company. Is he disreuptable? And you gentlemen who are not the only people who are politically should not be the only people who are leved by and permit the charge to be leved at your political compatriot, your personal friend, by your counsel or your representative. Such is the in-discretion of your own case. There are some of the things to which I desire to call your attention. ALD. LINK: I think his time is up. ALD. A. A. M'CORMICK: Mr. Presidency's motion—I am so interested in the work of my colleague here—that I will give him unlimited time. ALD. L. B. ANDERSON: I will be through in a minute, because I know I am going to stand here that what I am saying, so I will give this vote is concerned, is falling on deaf ears; I know it, but I could not be true to myself; I would not be true to my intelligence if I did not offer a 30 per cent increase in company sought practically all they wanted, but ever since Richberg has been in this litigation it has been the pursuit of the golden fleece, and every time this company asks for a question with reference to this litigation it has been with regard to either Mr. Richberg's fees or some power or Hon. Ed Green Launches Fight for Legislative Honors Experience in legislative work is a valuable asset to any member in a crisis as will necessarily confront crisis such as will the , forthcoming general assembly at Springfield, Ill. Mr. Green's previous training and his astute knowledge of governmental affairs amply qualify him to grapple with central legislation caused by reason of the new world condition. It is superiors who stand well in hand and is an assurance to his constituents that will be well served will Ed Green The First senatorial district is probably the most complex, politically and otherwise, of any in the city. No cancelling or suffrage of that district so well measures up to the requirements of the wishes of the constituents as does Exemption from the steady and increasing fight against his steady and increasing duration during his useful term as a member of the legislative body offers him the defence of his candidacy. The people's rights have been his battles. He always stood ready and anxious to throw himself into the defence of debate when the honour and integrity of the legislature are violated by scheming politicians who sought to gain a hearing by appealing once accused. The voters of the First senatorial district were in the attempt to send Mr. Green back to the legislature. His past record warrants the undisputed attention and solidarity of the voters who exercise the right of suffrage. authority to continue to earn fees. Fees, fees, fees, are the sole consideration of Richberg, and the gas company is camouflaged all through its litigation. Richberg matters is, as the record discloses, not one gas consumer is in the case. The only case where a gas consumer has a gas company is the nature of an original suit, the Molecule suit, or a man named Sutter, and the amount involved there is $1.12, and it has gone to the Supreme court; and yet the charge lies at the door of the corporation. There could be no perplexing Richberg. There could be no hampering when $6,600 has been drawn out of the public treasury by Richberg and his ales. We who are the plaintiffs in the lawsuit kind of litigation could be settled in four years; but not so here; the longer the litigation the more fees, and after all and in the last analysis of my case, the court concerned that Richberg has in this matter is the pursuit of the "golden fleece." Mr. President, I know that I am availing little here. I am conscious of you, he said, however logically or eloquently, you rebuttal when it comes of the years and nays; I know it. I am sensibly appreciative of my limitations. I know that you will make up, after one thing you will make up, Alice Anderson from the Second ward, that he pointed out the way; he showed you the light, and finally let me say, there are none so blind as those who will not see." I vote "no." (Applause.) After Ald. Anderson had finished his address the gallery, which was crowded, and many members of the city council came over to his desk and congratulated him upon his forceful and eloquent speech. He arranged the gas litigation attorney, that a member of the city council for 25 years, John Powers to a Defender reporter. John's fancy in saying that the speech of Ald. Anderson on gas litigation was logical one that has been made in the past during my entire aldermanic career. Angered Lover Wounds Sweetheart and Friend.

Williams Setting Hot Pace in Fight for State Senate His Rise From Poverty a Phenomenon With his sleeves rolled up, his jaws set in grim determination, the steely purpose of banishing every obstacle that might hinder his presentation for his Race and the whole community bristling in every fiber of his frame and fairly bubbling over with confidence, Augustus L. Williams, a senior senator from the Third Senatorial district, is sweeping away, early and late, sweeping on with a speed that's bewildering his opponents. In his result, he wins the candidate, in order that one might the more appreciate his highly commendable achievements, a comprehensive description should be given of the concluding his infancy and early boyhood. Struggles Up From Abject Poverty As in the case of many men of humble birth, whose names are catalogued in the global human family, the family of families of whose memory, dignified, monuments, breathe forth volumes of silent tribute, Mr. Williams was first ushered into the existence of the first warped roof of the working life, a cabin of feeble and gray with age, situated in a lonely deil, animated more by the wild things of nature than by human life, and the great struggle for his parents to seek out a barre of llihood and the inexorable pangs of adversity soon forced him a mere child, into the manufour, to filling the world, giving him mills of the most tumbers, but pausing at frequent intervals to nurse back to temporary relief his bruised, brist-pricked, nakedness of his body. The first of the first protection of a shoe, And for all his daily compensation was a rudely imbuvised but which with afforded little the most comfort. But the farmland, writer, "It is not in the sheltered gardens nor the well attended hothouses, but on the rugged alpine cliffs where the high-class always most violent, that the toughest plants of the country I. So the child's heart of Augustus L. Williams yearmed for that which he had to do could not give. An intuitive voice of him, for the range of mountains which rolled up in somber arrogance against the blue dome of heaven lay a busy, busheled, slender, and so far as he needed, and which needed him. So following the strange impulse and with but a silver half dollar laden with the tearless of the world, the world's other earth of wealth of the life face to the morning and with dogged persistence begun with weary, restless truge to candidate for state of life, and the manufour further details of the life of Mr. Williams will appear in next issue Adv. Atlanta N, and I, Institute Rally at Institutional Church An educational rally for the Atlanta Municipal and Industrial Institute was celebrated on Thursday, the Third-eighth and Dearborn street Sunday night. Aug. 5. The chairman the evening was the Ion, Samuel Ebert the third senatorial district. The occasion for the purpose of raising $250 in addition to money already raised for the pro- gram, is to raise funds for the sit- tation, and for the widening of its uselessness in reclaiming the boyhood and girlhood of the Southland. Its members, who has devoted the best years of his life in the upbuiding of this school, spoil in high terms and praise of the spirit of Chicago people in their sacrifice to the cause. Samuel Ettelson Speaks Chairman Samuel Etteleton delivered a timely and interesting talk on the preparation of the mind and hand to the mind, the mind and the work of one's life. He averred that he resented a race who felt the fangs of prejudice, but who had outlived the selfish activities of small-minded soul and had taken their rightful place in the world. He further advised that the height obtained by his Race in the social, commercial and intellectual world was reached by a constancy of hard work and a determination to two cardinal principles lies the future race who hope to gain the goal of usefulness. Following the remarks of the chairman, Congressman M. B. Madden was introduced, the first paragraph of which was that the goal of $100 to the Atlanta Normal Institute The congressman, as usual, delivered an able address filled with wholesome encouragement and advice to his heart, ambition and hopes of our people, and said that for twenty years he had been one of us, and had made our struggles his struggles and our hopes his hopes. He was a man of dress Chairman Ettelson introduced Hon. George D. Ellis, candidate for judge of the Municipal court. He spoke on "Education as an Uplift Element" and told of his work in Africa, and what had been accomplished through other uplift forces, and are now being accomplished to bring that country and to a higher standard of civilization. R. E. Moore, superintendent of Bethel Sunday school, delivered an appreciative address on "The influence of Sunday school and students." He recounted the many useful men and women who were the outgrowth of Sunday school environment. "Waving spoke on "Education and Working Girl." The speaker maintained that work was the most dignified position that one could enjoy, and self-reliance and independence, Dr. A. J. Carey spoke on "The Negro as a Lubovore Since the War." His address was characterized by his fountless enthusiasm and his people. Among the many things he said one especially stood out in bold relief when he exclaimed: "I rejoice that my race goes forth to do their part, foreign land that the spirit of democracy might be waffled upon the wind of every breeze. My one concern is that my sisters and brothers secure by the strong arm of democracy and their civil and property rights safeguarded from the clutches of treacherous men." Prof. R. E. Moore, whom entitled "Does the Negro Endure?" The Harmony quartet, consisting of J. H. Bull, C. O. A. Comma, K. D. Long, M. E. Peck, assisted by Institutional chor and Bethel Christian Endeavor. The entire amount asked for by the inquestor was paid to the Chairman Etelson placed the finishing touches on the contribution by adding a note for $50.

I must say, of some of the best women on the Race, we have picked up in its entirety of women who are not afraid to earn an honest dollar; indeed, nowhere will you find such a successful business women as are among the delegates of this convention. Walker Agents Benevolent "I have insisted on the benevolent side of this convention, because I want my agents to feel that their first duty to humanity, and, too, we must selfishly, and selfishly, that we are only interested in receiving, but let the world know that the Walker agents are responsive to ever human appeal, always ready to advance the best interests of the Race. "The nation is much concerned over the influx of Colorized people into our eastern cities and the effect of the colorization on the life of the communities in which they find homes. I believe that the economic conditions will rightly adjust the lives of the young boys and girls who find their way into these communities?" I tell you that we have our brother and sister from our brother and sister from the south. Shall we who call ourselves Christians sit still and allow them to be swallowed and lost in the slums of these great cities and in the doctrine that Gdw works through human instrumentalities, and that we are instruments in His hands, instruments and larger adjuncts of the life and it is my duty, your duty, to go out in the back alleys and side streets and bring them into your home; go to the church and bring the life you find there; bring them into your clubs and other organizations where they can feel the spirit of the community and better living. Yes, lend the encouragement of your friendly interest, that the light of hope may continue to shine in their eyes and worthy continue to throb in their hearts. "You doubtless are aware that these conventions are a great expense to me and that as an investment they mean less to me than to any agents connected with my company, but, my friends, if out of these conventions I can make permanent the determination to make good to build up a successful business, a good one to be of some real service in the face, say that if you can inspire such spirit in the heart of one who has never thought along such lines, my money will have been well invested." "I have conducted my business this year almost at a loss, owing to the unusual cost of material, heavy taxes, etc. I have not raised the prices because I did not want my agents to buy it, so I have been loyal to me and, by the help of God, I am trying to be loyal to you. "I want you to know that whatever I have accomplished in life I have paid for it by much thought and hard work. If there is any easy way I haven't found it. If you expect to build up a successful business you must make up your mind to work, and work hard. My advice to every one expecting to go into business is to hit often and get into work with other words, strike with all your might." "Although we are engaged in a great war, this is the Negroes' great oppor-tunity door hereforeto have our chance, let us make good. While I feel that we will make good as a Race, I shall ex-ert myself in every locality, not only in operating a successful business, but in every movement in the interest of our colored citizenship." Praises Bravery of Our Soldiers Mme. Walker delivered an address on the bravery of our boys in the battles they fought in this country, from Crispus Attucks to San Juan She said, among other things: "Today black hands are still holding high the flag. We see them as they come, 12,000,000 strong, marching, their faces wreathed in smiles, going over the hill, carrying the flag. Roberts and Johnson, the sons of freedom, single-handed and alone put to flight twenty-four Germans. Can you longer doubt the valor, loyalty and patriotism of the black man who wont let his wife and children, his mother and sisters, and his dear old father whose head is bending low and whose hair is fleecy white. I say, will he find them safely tucked away in the cozy little house? Roberts and Johnson of the government of the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave? For he has gone over there to mingle his blood with the blood of other nations that the world may be safe for democracy which has been so long denied him. "Now and then, but seldom, you hear one say, 'This is not my country. I have no right to fight for a flag that is not my country. I have no right to you that this our home, and, whether we have that protection that is our due or not, all we have is here, and the time will come, and it is not far distant, until we must and guarantee to every American citizen under the American Constitution."

Walker said: "Today marks the end of nearly one year since we met in the great city of Philadelphia, and I need not say to you that I am indeed happy to meet with you in this city, and to introduce new faces among our agents. For in spite of the many things with which we have had to contend, in spite of the great crisis through which we are dealing, we are grateful with greeting and good cheer for each and all of you. We are here not only to transact the business of this convention, not only to inspire and receive inspiration, but to pledge anew our support to the common country, and to say to our President, that the Colored women of America are ready and willing to undergo any hardship and to contribute to bring our boys home victorious. Ous Task at Home "Let us not forget that history is now in the making, and, while we are justly proud of the heroic deeds and act of our boys at the front, we must also be proud of the importance at home and is of equal importance, and that, however brave our boys may be, unless they have the proper home support they can accomplish but little, and that they must be with us in vain. Remembering Russia, let us resolve here and now that the home fires be kept burning and that the great ocean highway shall be kept open, and that the munitions, whatever the cost may be. "It is not my purpose to talk war at this time, but I want you to know that, as interested as I am in my country, this conversation, my first thought is that of the people that should be in the mind of every real American.

Some deep as night some light as air. All grouped about in one great human ring. Gazing on her mother — loud her praises sing. Oh! wondrous woman! Send-ing joy for woe. Loving her struggles for a Race that needs you to. Heart close to heart with God, as only woman can. Living by His love, not that of man, man. Your people fitted for your coming to their life's morn so gray. Shedding faith, love, hope. Loving night into day. Lovingly dedicated friend whose life Mme. C. J. Walker has been a source of inspiration. Walker Agents Benevolent Praises Bravery of Our Soldiers Highly Entertained THE CHICAGO DEFENDER auspices of the N. A. A. C. P.

KASHMIR BEAUTY CULTURE MAKES WONDERFUL PROGRESS In the economic progress of the Race there is no concern in the country that surpasses the growth of the Kashmir Chemical Company of Chicago. The name "Kashmir" is fast becoming a national household word and the term "Kashmir Girls" has become a syn- onym of beauty loyalness a n d charm wherever known A The Kashimin Chemical company was organized Nov. 11, 1916, and hence it is now a company of years old. However, the preparations of the company are now being shipped to all cities in great known ing shipped to all parts of the world and are in great demand wherever they are. The company executive offices and manufacturing department are located at 312 South Clark street, Chicago, Illinois of high business staffing in the city, in county, which in itself accounts for the rapid growth of the business. The founder of the business was the late William R. Manson; vice president, William R. Manson; treasurer and manager, George H. Walker; assistant manager, Mrs. Hazel Irene Bell. Other officers are: Charles C. Cowan and William Sobers. Claud A. Barnett is advertising manager. The company also has associated with it some of the best chemists to be found in the city, who they employ a group of young women who are not only efficient from a business viewpoint, but are worthy rel. to the company, which already has been mentioned as mning beauty, loveliness and charm. With all due credit to the men who compose the company, this story would not incomplete without special reference to Irene Bell. As an executive and a young woman of business vision, Mrs. Bell has few equals. Mrs. Bell is an artist with beauty culture and her ideals have with beauty culture and her extended beauty study and observation abroad. A large share in the management of the executive part of the work is intrusted to Mrs. Bell and when one is successful the Kashmir officer's success of the Kashmir officer's selection of Mrs. Bell for the very important place she holds has shown her discriminating judgment. Mrs. Bell's girl" and her photo very appropriately adorns Kashmir literature. The Race is justly proud of Mrs. Hazel Irene Bell. The Race is proud of the Kashmir chemical company because of the high quality of their goods and the high efficiency and system of the manner in which the work is carried on. Given two more years on the job, Mrs. Bell and the Kashmir chemical company be in every particular one of the outstanding bulwarks of the Race.

JACKSON DIRECTOR O UNDERTAKING IN AMERICA PACKAGE NO. 2 DAY AND NIGHT SERVICE Chicago, Illinois KASHMIR PREPARATIONS FOR HAIR AND SKIN "BETTER THAN THE BEST" SATURDAY AUGUST 10.1918 President Wilson Pleased With Editors' Conference President Wilson Pleased With Editors' Conference Warmly Commends "Fine Philosophy of Democracy" Exhibited in Frank and Calm Consideration of War Issues Washington, Aug. 9.—President Wilson is greatly pleased with the conference of editors and other leaders of thought and opinion among the Colored citizens of the country, held a short time ago in this city. The report of the conference has been published far and wide and the proceedings have attracted a larger measure of attention than the report of any similar gathering of men since emancipation. In a recent letter the chief executive of the nation plainly indicates his deep interest and genuine satisfaction with the meeting and its successful outcome, as well as with the practical results that have accrued from the frank and unharmed interchange of views as to how the 12,000,000 Negroes of the country might most effectively aid America to win this righteous war for freedom, and to win the war with the President feels that the problems considered by the conference were "grave and weighty," and he is cheered by the thought that the whole state of feeling throughout the country will be helped by the broad spirit of patriotism, and by the conferences in their calm, dignified and high-purposed deliberations. . In no uncertain terms the President warmly commends the Colored representatives of the press for their timely empathies of national unity on the vital issues involved in the war and applauds the inspiring example set by them for all Americans who have at the moment of the nation in its present crisis. The final text of the President's letter to the chairman of the conference follows: "The White House, Washington, July 31, 1915—Dear Mr. Scott." Your letter of June 28th has been called to my attention, and I am both interested and pleased. I have given of the message held in Washington a kind of thought and opinion among the Negro citizens of the country. "The problems considered by the conference of special importance to the people whom they represent are grave and wealthy, and the whole state of affairs is in need of help helped by the frank and calm consideration given to these matters. "In the meantime, it is cheering to see that the fine philosophy of democracy, which is at this time the inspiration of the great effort of our country, was felt and expressed by these concessions, and ought to control all Americans in the present crisis. Cordially yours." "The War Department." This unrigging endorsement of the Editors' Conference and sincere tribute to the loyalty of the Colored citizens to the cause held dearest to all America will bear witness to the strength over the land. The President's ringing utterance in denunciation of mob violence, the acceptance of Colored nurses for war service, and a score of advantageous plans for the induction of our African-American soldiers in camps for officers, followed closely by this exceedingly cordial letter of the President, give ground for belief that the Negro-American is, during these days of national emergency and need, by the general government as a factor of importance in the winning of the war. Strangles Woman to Death With Aid of Red Clothin Elgin, Ill., Aug. 9—Mrs. Hattle Bramlette of Chicago, an inmate of the Boy Scout organization located near Mrs. Ruby Sifty (male) of Zion City, Ill., also an inmate, and strangled her to death with a bed sheet. Although there were four attendants in the ward when the crime was committed, none heard the scuffle that preceded the tragedy. Mrs. Bramlette watched for a chance to seize Mrs. Sifty and when she did, she escaped. Mary Mrs. Bramlette dragged her into a room and tied a bed sheet around her neck, tightening it until death came by strangulation. Mrs. Sifty was 27 years of age and the wife of a traveling salesman, Mrs. Bramlette is 14. Both were consid- ered murderers, and the crime were closely guarded.

Then, too, there is the element of graft that present when Chicago asks for special legislation they take no chances.

So with the present constitution there are laws that distinctly specify their rights; that every citizen, of whatever real name standing in our courts of law. Undoubtedly in the breasts of the people of the state toago. The East St. Louis riots, the inclination the southern portion, but to lynch, amply justify of dark skin would be willing to again place the mixed element that goes to make up the lives they not even here in Chicago attempted schools, to separate the schools and "Jim Crow" them if not the laws on our statute books? If, the inclination is to play safety first and learnturance from our friends who favor the change safeguarded is consoling, but are our friends in not, where we will stand? Self-protection is if some means for protecting even that which vote and our support can be counted on for them we will fight under the old banner. A NEW STATE CONSTITUTION THERE MAY BE such a thing as the advocates of a new state constitution claim, as outgrowing certain laws that were enacted when the population was very small and the requirements accordingly not very much, but we have suffered little on that score up to the present time and undoubtedly will continue to get along under the present laws if it requires a two-thirds vote of the people of the state to change them. The downstate folks look upon the movement as one designed in the main to favor Chicago, and they are not far wrong. Chicago has outgrown village laws and wants more power invested in the city and county and less in the state. Many enterprises are nipped in the bud because they cannot be worked out under the present laws and because it is almost an impossibility to secure, through the state legislature favorable laws. Many of the representatives in Springfield hail from sections sparsely populated; they know little or nothing of the needs of a big city like Chicago, and argue what is good enough for them is good enough for the rest of the state. Then, too, there is the element of graft that is ever looked upon as being present when Chicago asks for special legislation, so to keep on the safe side they take no chances. If we were looking at the matter from the other fellow's point of view we would be heartily in favor of giving Illinois a new constitution, or at least substituting new laws for the antiquated ones, for progress hinges on keeping abreast of the times. But, contrary to our policy of hewing to the line and letting the chips fall where they may, in this instance we reserve the right to take a narrow, selfish view. Every man, woman and child on this earth, whether they admit it or not, has a certain fear of death. They know what life is, but what the great beyond holds no one knows. So with the present constitution of Illinois. We know there are laws that distinctly specify there shall be no abridgment of our rights; that every citizen, of whatever religion, creed or color, has the same standing in our courts of law. Undoubtedly there is not the same feeling in the breasts of the people of the state that was there some fifty years ago. The East St. Louis riots, the inclination not only to discriminate in the southern portion, but to lynch, amply justifies this feeling. What man of dark skin would be willing to again place his citizenship in the hands of the mixed element that goes to make up the population of this state? Have they not even here in Chicago attempted to restrict residential neighborhoods, to separate the schools and "Jim Crow" us generally? What stopped them if not the laws on our statute books? Knowing these things first hand, the inclination is to play safety first and let well enough alone. The assurance from our friends who favor the change that our interests will be safeguarded is consulting, but are our friends in the majority, and if they are not, where will we stand? Self-protection is the first law of nature, and if some means for protecting even that which we now have is devised, our vote and our support can be counted on for the new constitution; until then we will fight under the old banner.

Thrown to the winds has Germany every decree to greet and welcome of the war. Their one purpose being to rule or control and finish the war is turning over heaven and earth in their mad efforts to ruin. What this terrifying cost so far in human life, to say nothing of the financial end, makes one will be compelled to no action. It it must go on and on until so crushed Germany will be compelled to no action. We must not flatter ourselves because of recent successes that we can force this state to further making the supreme effort and sacrifice, for we cannot, and now, as before before we must pull all together, fighting like mad, till we march the enemy to the battlefield, Spangled Banner" and waving the emblem of democracy, the Red White and Blue. "We must kill," as an eastern editor say, "the kaiser's dream of Europe, the empire, the kind of an empire marked out by the German sword, an empire marked out by the German sword, densely burned and destroyed, a bit of France his armies devastated, a territory trickery from helpless Russia, a collection of lands stolen from his allies who were slain in this war. It may seem a shame to disturb one from such a beautiful dream, it is one of those things—like the can tied to a dog's tail—bound to occur." There are two duties with which we are face to face: The first is to win the war, and the second is to win it greatly and worthy. So day by day it is becoming clearer that the only way to protect ourselves and our successors in the life of the various countries the world is to beat Germany to her knees NOW; first, because any terms to which she would agree would leave her in an improved position to work her greedy will, second, whatever promise she might make us would be absolutely worthless. She has ruined forever her reputation, honor. She has invented a code of conduct that takes no account of mental considerations. And in so doing she has wrought her own eventual undoing, because she has put herself outside the human pale. The big and little guns Germany is training on the defenders of democracy will backfire and the recoil will be forceful enough to crush autocracy forever. MR. HOOVER'S SALARY is $12 a year, but that's the American idea of giving your services, or your life if necessary, for your country. He wished to serve without pay, but the government never accepts free service, so this nominal salary was arranged. WITH THE HIGH TAX on automobiles there will not be so many "joy riders" next season burning up the dust, not so many cars wrecked or people killed, so there is something to be gained after all. THE PROMISE that lines of communication written by us to our soldier and friends will be trustworthy and swiftly delivered is welcomed on both sides of the ocean. AS WAR INDUSTRIES have swept farm labor into factories at wages with which the farmer finds it hard to compete, the urgency of food production grows more acute.

JUST AMERICAN By Ben Baker Then he raised his head on high As he gave me this reply: "We must use it to me in this land of liberty. In my soul as man to man I am just AMERICAN." -Anon. So proud was the distinction once "to be a Roman was greater than a king." But Rome in his palestinian days never approached the magnificent opportunity afforded by today being an American. Of all the countries in the world America is the most wonderful. The country next to ours that attires the inner recesses of our soul is France. The glorious ideals of each nation have been intertwined from the beginning of our existence. France, above all, has been a true example of liberty, equality and justice for us. There is no need in the world that has risen above France in the true spirit of human justice. America must be judged both by its ideals and its achievements. America is its greatest achievement, some quarter by narrowness and ignorance the notoriety gained by these evil influences has placed our great and grand country in a false light before many of the world. But we must be made to understand that that narrowness and that ignorance is not the real America. The real American country is Washington—George and Booker T.

H. was suffering with a large tumor of the pelvic organs and had resorted to and tried out all forms of external medication, including aerosol inhalers, hands, rubbing, massaging with Sloan's lilinement, goose grease, and had taken all of Lyda Pinkum's remedies and got no sufferer. She called upon her neighbors and they advised her and they kind of poultices, including flaxseed meal, salt, vinegar, onion poultices. PETER H. Dr. A. W. Williams but to n avail. Then she heard of a quack doctor down the street, who did not believe in operations (of course, you know that the man who does not believe in operations is one that does not know how to operate nor when there should be an operation, and that is why he makes the foolish statement that he does not believe in operations). As a matter of fact all good physicians and surgeons never operate on the patient just for the sake of operating or cutting, as so many foolish people believe. The thing that is uppermost in the mind of a good doctor, the real moving cause, is first of all the relieving of human suffering and the prolongation of human life. Many operations are done for life, a reverse—many others are done for life in purpose of controlling the sufferer from pain and for making the patient comfortable and thus prolonging his life. You should get the silly notion out of your mind and out of your system that physicians have any other object in operating, except for your good. There are many operations that are really vital and must be done at once—in which delays are dangerous. Some Imperative Operations APPENDICITIS. Appendicitis calls for an imperative operation and is seldom really cured without resorting to an operation. The appendix is very painful, and it is often a while, then burst out like a powder magazine. Just so long as you have a diseased, inflamed appendix in your abdomen, just so long will you be carcassed. You will be in a position which is similar to a powder magazine, and is just as likely to go off at any time, and thus your life be lost; but on the other hand, if taken in time, you will be a competent, experienced surgeon, the danger to life is small indeed. INTESTINAL OBSTRUCTION, or what you call "LOCKED BOWELS," can be dangerous condition and can be life-threatening operation is imperative—this condition occurs very often in children. The emergency examiner examines his patient, makes a diagnosis, and then attempts to be removed to the hospital and operated on at once. This may be your own condition, the various home remedies, including the various poultices and rubbings, etc. you are going to die. There is only one way to be relieved. You may believe in operations or not. You may have a bad case of appendicitis, if you have intestinal obstruction and cannot be relieved upon the relief of this condition you are going to die in from 72 to 86 hours. Extopic Pregnancy EXTOPIC PREGNANCY, or pregnancy out of the normal place, is an immediate operation that calls for an immediate operation. The condition is fraught with imminent danger to the life of the mother. Gestational depression, lupus, tuber, or somnothera between CHICAGO AUG. 10, 1918 A Prayer for Today God of us all and of our land. Who holds our fates within Thy hand, Who blesses our mother, to ask of Thee Thy blessing on our hearts, And those across the rolling foam. Far from loved ones and from home. Be with them, Father, as they go Upon the field to meet the foot. Make them invincible, we pray. As gazes all the world their way: And ever in Thy mercy great, Be with them, Lord, whatever their fate. O Father, with the mothers be And take their sorrowing hearts to Thee. Whose solace heal all of pain, And broken hearts makes whole again, Oh, may their gifts to Freedom's cause, Be blest with fruits in future laws. O Father, may our heroes stain, Not shed their precious blood in vain— through their valiant deeds illumine Thee with light, That willful wrongs we long have stood, Be swallowed up in brotherhood. God of us all, we come to Thee Amid this strife for Liberty, The guidance as we pay The costly day to day That we may do our every part. As heroes, with unflinching heart. And Father, when the Peace shall take the armies from the field and make A freedom that shall long endure And liberty of all secure, May we who fought that such might Find Justice fraught with purity And with the passing of the night, An ensnare hope and light.

At some period of gestation there is very likely a capture of the tube, hemorrhage, shock and death if surgical intervention is too long delayed. You have no time to consult your ignorant, meddlesome neighbors as to whether you should go to the hospital or not. Your condition is such that you have got to decide at once—it is up to you to obey your physician, follow his instructions, accept his advice then and there, die. FIBROID TUMORS in women, and GALLSTONES in both women and men often call for operations that are primarily or solely for the relief of suffering and secondary or prolongation and comfort of life. HERNIA is a protrusion of a knuckle or organ through an abnormal opening—as, for example, a loop protrudes through abnormal opening in the abdomen. For our purpose here we will speak of the strangulated and nonstrangulated hernias. The strangulation occurs when the loop or knuckle of intestines becomes constricted by reason of the blood supply or circulation being shut off in that that has protruded through the abdomen. If the blood supply to a hernia cannot be reduced and must be operated upon at once, You have no time to argue or to parley with the surgeon. You must submit to an operative procedure that will be dead in from 48 to 86 hours. In this condition that knuckle protruding through the abnormal opening may die from gangrene (rottenitis). This holds true in children and adults. Our Advice We call upon all sensible men and women, together with all the girls and women, to open an abnormal opening in the abdominal or the knuckles of the intestines are likely to protrude, not to wait until dislunches you, but have this condition removed, you must that you are in good hands, as these openings are always a source of danse as well as discomfort. If you must resort yourself in the hands of a good surgeon while your physical condition is good and the opening can be cured in two ways, you wait until you if you wait until strangulation takes place, operation is more difficult, your recovery is totally endangered and your recovery delayed and made more hazardous. Where Shall Operation Be Done? By far the most sanitary, the most trained attendants for doing the operations are to be found in a well regulated hospital, and to be subdued home to take the place of hospital. What you want, when sick is well equipped, efficient service, and this you cannot be without. The rubbing may be useful and good, but such cannot take the place of intelligent service in a hospital, where taking care of you, and arranged for taking care of you, is under the constant observance of trained and intelligent attendants, that every hour of the day, your physician every hour of the day, by rules and regulations in the hospital. You cannot have your own way, the temp. records, the recorded pulse, the amount of sleep and drink consumed by you in 24 hours recorded. Your medicine is given strictly kept of your condition from the time you enter until you leave. This you cannot get at home. Only your service in a hospital and who have no knowledge of a hospital are the ones who fear to go there and are always against the hospital care. Such people mean all right, but just do not know. To these people we must be kind, and to them our way of doing things. We cannot accomplish much by abuse and much, but we can accomplish much, overcome our prejudice in showing them the light.
