THE WORLD WONDER OIL@GASCO. Has Just Closed the Biggest Deal that Has Ever Been Made by Any Negro Oil Operators in This Section of the Country. The deal consists of a 240-acre lease in Montgomery, Kan., which has upon it at the present time 4 producing oil wells making approximately 50 barrels of oil per day. These wells are fully equipped with large power plant and are connected up with the pipe line, and is bringing in money each day for our stockholders. Our Well No. 5 is now being drilled on this lease, which we expect to come in at 25 or 30 barrels flush production. sin ring Nov. 29, when he meets Jeff Clark of Memphis in a ten round contest at the Auditorium for the war fund campaign. It will not be an exhibition, but a real battle, and it will convince whether the fans hereabouts will patronize the Colored stars of the arena. There is no Colored lighter in the world outside of Jack Johnson, who is better known than Langford, and it is a question whether Johnson or Langford would have been champion had the toy Jack ever accepted Sam's challenge. Sam is no chicken, but he is still full of plain, and only recently fought two hard twelve round contests in the East. Clark met Sam recently and fought a twelve round draw, but the home papers gave Jeff the better of the argument. He is fast and clever and since getting heavier has developed a punch. The Cream City A.C. will stage the show best boxers hereabouts to fill out the contest. Already a number of local and Great Lakes professionals have volunteered their services.

We are expecting to bring in a five or ten thousand barrel well on that lease which will make it worth over a million dollars. Don't forget that Butler County is the home of the biggest oil wells in the United States. A forty acre lease in the adjoining section to our lease was sold last week for 180,000 and only a few months ago the American Oil and Refining Company of Wichita, Kansas, sold a lease very close to ours for 1,500,000; so you can readily see we are playing for real big money. We are not quitters nor stackers; we are in the oil business to stay. I am a firm believer in that portion of the Scripture that says "The race is not given to the swift nor the strong, but to he who endureth to the end." I am pleased to know this world war for democracy is bringing my people so close together. We realize that our President is calling upon us constantly to buy Liberty Bonds, War Savingsamps and to give, to the Red Cross; but with all of that, my people are investing their money in Negro business enterprises, that we may be able to enjoy the luxuries of democracy the same other races; and we are at the same time opening up respectable positions for our boys and girls as they come out of school, and for our boys as they come back from France. Oil is the greatest builder of American fortune. Many persons have been made intensely rich from small investments in oil, and we are getting the right company and at the right time. I firmly believe that the right company and that this is the right time to invest, because the market is in World Wonder oil with renunciation. I don't believe that more to get in on the ground vers such great possibilities.

Dash of the New York Spartans, who is now playing with the "Y" team, is fast winning a place in the hearts of the fans. Carter, former Dunbar star, is still blazing. Among the other shining lights, Nest Smith, M. Baker, Westmoreland, Marse, Simms, and Amos will be great aids to their respective teams. John D.

But listen, in closing this big deal in Montgomery County it has cost us an enormous sum of money. As a rule, in buying production you are required to pay all cash in full in one payment; but we were exceedingly fortunate in being able to swing this deal by paying a large amount down and the balance in payments. Now in order to rush in enough money to finish paying for this production and lease, we are offering to the public some of our stock at 50c per share; but just as soon as we have paid in full for this Montgomery County deal our stock will go to $1.00 per share. This is just as true as you are living, and my friend, we are going to drill well after on our Montgomery County lease, which can be done at a small cost as that is a shallow field. The oil is found at about 700 feet. Cut out the application blank and mail us your order today. The great world-wide war has ceased. Peace again reigns. To the Negro this war has brought many things, the signing of the armistice for peace means still more. As a race we ought to be alert, grasp every opportunity for commercial advancement, build up great commercial enterprises and make a place for our boys and girls and claim our share of this world wide democracy.

Here the matter was entered into not only thoroughly but promptly. The subscription was sent back to the Hanky Rapp, the manager, and the Rapp, the manager, was instructed to see that prejudice of no kind entered into the future operations of the bank under his control. It was also stated that the bank was in the field for business, and such serious charges as those presented would cause trouble if renamed. Mr. Rapp stated that he had to be given the matter taken up and said he wished the public to know in every way possible the bank's door is open freely to our people. He feels his eight years in the neighborhood building up the bank shall not be marred by lack of co-operation on the part of those under him. This is not the first complaint brought against the bank, and from the attitude assumed by the bank, it is usually the fault of some subordinates. The remedy for this, however, would be a few subordinate in that bank of our kind. The fair recently closed at St. James' Church was the most successful one that church has ever had.

Tabb, Manager Discrimination at Camp Humphries A tale of discrimination, almost unbelievable in this world wide quest for democracy, has come to this office. It relates to Camp Humphries in Virginia and is vouchered for by a soldier from the Army. The soldier, who was drafted from New York and was first sent to Camp Upton, from there to Dix and last to Humphries. At the latter camp, it is said, the Race soldiers are compelled to sleep in tents, to wash their clothes, to build a house, the white soldiers are lined up, due, steamed heated barracks. Our troops, according to the soldier, have little or no conveniences—no place to bathe, nowhere to wash their clothes, hardly a place to handle the water, the only water handy to our bureu; it is not to be found in the kitchen. Separate "barrines" are provided with the highly objectionable signs "For Colored Only" and "For White Only." The latrine, said the soldier, provided for our men, and was used. This camp is being used at present by men convalescing from operations or slackness and the state of mind in which Race soldiers compelled to stay there, are in, is said to be one of the worst conditions the soldier is a direct contrast to their attitude in that serial camp at Wrightstown, N. J.-Camp Dix. War Is Over A grand peace jubilee and military hall will be given at Manhattan Casino Friday evening, Dec. 6, 1918.

BOX 36 Patrons Defeated Socialist Not Dispondent Although the socialist party, who ran on the left, hung out of progress, the first time one of our people ever made the fight in this district, finished a bad third, they are not dependent. On the contrary, they claim elation. To a Defender reporter, who stopped in at their headquarters last week, Louie George, socialist campaign manager, said: "We certainly have a great opportunity to unleash the election." Franklin speeches we did not expect to expect. What we hone to do was to disseminate the philosophy of socialism among our people here in Harlem and to accustom them to voting for their own kind. We feel that we succeeded in this, hence we are elected. Harlem now is 16 per cent more populous than before." George, a clean-cut young chup, then said he regretted the stand of vilification taken by a publication in Harlem which made itself a self-appointed republican spokesman for the Race, with the result that nearly every democrat was elected. One of the prominent candidates called attention to the problem that if a social government is brought about in that country it means much socialistic principles throughout the world.

The Avenue Clarence Muse, playing the title role in Robert Louis Stevenson's great story, "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde," is the final attraction of the present guest of Lafayette Players, who will be succeeded by another set of the famous performers next Monday. Muse, who has gained a great reputation for his excellent work both here and in the east, was never seen to better advantage than in this offering. He has opportunities, and he takes full advantage of them; at Tony Langston Tony Langston the same time the support offered is of the finest caliber. The story of the play is more or less familiar to every one. It created a general sensation at the time of its original publication and was considered the best play in the Mansfield, and no engagement was considered complete without it being used as the piece de resistance by him. Suvenson succeeded in creating a character who had more than gained the ability to see himself better than a saw him who had not only made a study of him without him as well. He sets out to eradicate the evil half that all men are supposed to contain and to create a man without evil—a God-like being. That it is dangerous to tamper with the will of the Creator is amply shown by the results chosen in the form of God, who, for a purpose, makes all both good and evil in them cannot be changed, and the efforts of Dr. Jekyll brings consequences that are desperate and convincing arguments against efforts of the sort. It makes the warning, "Trifle Not With the Will of God," the form of light and darkness, and the detail with which it is involved in murders and terrible details, make up something in plays as far as it does in stories, and the effect was plainly seen upon the large attendance of Monday night. Second in importance to the work of Muse was the excellent character of Desmond, whose chances in interpretations of the sort have been all too few during her stay here. Dr. Lanyon, colleague of Dr. Jekyll, is capably handled by Charles Moore, who is palstaking and precise but always pleasing, and Andrew Bishop as Utterson the harrier played right up to her death. He marks his work, and so does Carol Freeman in the part of the daughter of Sir Danvers Carew, who is killed by Hyde; Miss Agnes is in Io e with the doctor, and through this most of the engrossing story is responsible. Her father is played by Arthur T. Ray, who does not know the name of William and Zillian Gillam placing the parts of Mrs. Lanyon and a streeturchin, both working in a manner worth mentioning. Arthur Simmons as the officer from Scotland Yard and Leon Rooks as Officer O'Reilly are good and furnish what little touch of comedie to the piece of H. L. Fryer in Poole. Lily also uses efficient. The friends of Cien Desmond had a hard time in recognizing favorite through the clever make-up in the two parts pled by Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is a play that should be seen by all, despite its grouwiness, and it is a foregone mark of a witness it will remember it for a long time.

WONDER FILM 'ROMANCE OF TARZAN' AT THE STATES THEATRE FOR TWO DAYS The thousands of people who reviewed "Tarzan of the Apes" at the States Theater some time ago will welcome the opportunity of looking over "The Romance of Tarzan," considered by many as the greatest of all pictures of this description. It comes on Saturday and Sunday of the present week, and the legend is practically like this: Tarzan finds his mate in the depths of forests primal and claims her with the divine assurance of nature's benediction. His oxultant loving courtship is rudely surrendered by gale fate, who wrests his mate away and lays her down in a heartbroken, by the shores of tundra less seas which girdle his jungle world with a man-eating surf wall which the jungle folk may not pass. Lifted with loving kindness by the carrossing trunk of his mastodonic fringe, Cantor to the secure summit of the river bank, is transported to the security of jungle air—to health by healing balsams and purest ozone, Tarzan, full of passionate longing for the carasses of his lost love, parts with his mighty myrmidon, and agitin seeking the shores of the deep water, braves the grushing teeth of fire and breathes the waves in search of the who is dearer to him than life itself. Tarzan now embarks upon the strangest quest in the history of lovers—breasting the curing sets with animal-like confidence and the sublime unreaching faith which in a seeming with conflict had never known before. God of lovers sends a ship to hear him away to distant shores where mayhap she would be awaiting him. After days and days of resentful labor on shipboard, and nights and nights and nights of heart-hungry watching from swaying top spur, a strange and terrifying rises out of the jungle, finds himself surrounded by hordes of heartless humans, who turn away smiling or sneering from his eager query: "My mate, have you seen my mate?" Evading the perils that on every side beset him, terrors undreamt of in his sylvan existence, our grinning hippe giant after endless and painful conquests conquer every obstacle and kind fate leads him to his long-lost mate. Now Tarzan's was not to be a peaceful wedlock, for in her own environment he found his mate still his in heart but bound, enslaved by cen-scious convention which he the Primeval, to bind him to the warri-Opened by the guile of a serpent in their garden of love a vast gulf began to seperate them. Struggling madly, blindly to understand and please his love—fighting at times with his tongue and face when his instinct told him would parade Tarzan and his mate find civilization's conventions mightier than nature. At last, his heart torn and hurt only as such great hearts suffer. Tarzan returns to his jungles for solace and finds only solitude. For his ways are his people his old friends, distrust him. Separated from her epocalyx lover, Tarzan's mate finds life fruitless. Parent and friend watch with apprehension her grief-striken silence. Comes, sent by the God of true lovers, the penitent serpent whose machinations sundered them. Joy follows commands of the serpent's hunger, way over the seas in his jungles she seeks him. The gulf of misunderstanding fades from between them and love—wondrous love, brings them peace in the end. "PRIVATE PEAT" "PRIVATE PEAT" HORRORS OF TRENCH LIFE VIVIDLY SHOWN IN STIRRING FEATURE As a war spectacle throbbing with human interest and vibrant with patriotic fervor, "Private Peat," the great Paramount-Artert special picture which will be shown at the Pickford Theatre on Saturday and Sunday of the present week, has few, if any, superiors. The play is based upon the story written by Mr. Peat, and which has met with a wide sale all over the country. Mr. Peat himself played the leading role, and his smile, of which he spoke his first feature, Two Years in Hell and Back With a Smile," is constantly in evidence. The story deals with a young man named Peat who is clerk in a country store. He is intensely patriotic and seeks to enlist when the United States invades his former country. He is turned down repeatedly because his chest expansion is insufficient, and he and his sweetheart, Mary, are greatly perturbed in consequence. He reads about the war, and one night he dreams vividly that an airplane has dropped a bomb upon the airplane of a child. He sees the triumphal entry of the Germans into the village, they killing the inoffensive inhabitants, inflicting a thousand indignities, and setting fire to the dwellings. It is hard to imagine how the Germans dream, but it gives him an idea by which he can become a soldier. On his statement that he has two brothers in the army and that his mother and sister are "over there," he is accepted and goes on to work. He takes his place in the trenches, and when volunteers are called for to go to the ammunition dump and get all the boxes they are able to carry, Peat, with nine others, starts across the swamp country. Peat is badly wounded by "NV." He and after a lapse of two days he is forced by stretcher-bearers and carried to a field hospital. Peat recovers, and one day, Merly joins him amid general jubilation. Although Peat is a mere shadow of his father, he has his bride and they return to America, happy and contented with their lot. The French scenes, showing the barrage fires, the Hunt's attacks, aided by all the flendish implements of destructive menace can invent, the rally of the British forces and the devastation of 'No Man's Land' markedly realistic and show the master hand of the director. Don't miss this one.

ATTEND MATINEE AND AVO CROWDS DIRECT FROM "THE DIVORCE QUESTION" The new company of Lafayette Players which comes direct from New York will open Monday in a play that will startle the Avenue patrons, for it is safe to say that nothing stronger in the play line has been done by any of the previous companies. Plays that have left exceedingly good impressions and taught moral lessons of almost weekly occurrence at the playhouse when the Quality Amusement Corporation presents their new company in "The Divorce Question," a production which transcends all others of its kind, the Avenue patrons will see something that is really worth while. Being closely allied with the church for many years, they say that our people will find much to hold their attention in the "Divorce Question." The church plays a very important part and the power which has always been conceded to the Christian institution comprises one of the most tense scenes incorporated in the play. Present day, especially one dealing with the issue, which aroused the indignation of organizations formed for social welfare. Although the first act contains the essentials to hold an audience and insure their remaining to witness the thrilling climax of the last act, the second furnishes a gripping episode in the death of the dope fiend's sister, who with an absorbing nature, auditors will be able to witness the curse of the divorce evil. Unlike most plays of its kind "The Divorce Question" was not written with an attempt by the author to moralize, but confining himself to depicting one of the vital questions that arrests the thinking man and woman in this country, he has managed to send forth whatever good it might do, one of the strongest arguments ever brought for the marriage of those who would for all time be credibly the parasites who gnaw at the foundation of social law and order. The company that will enact this vital play is not new to Chicagoans. Mr. Walker Thompson, who will play the dope nijd, is well known for some fine work in other lines of the theatre, and Tom Pemberton will be with us again. All need be said is that his wonderful art has gained for him the title of "dean." Miss Inez Clough will be remembered for her work in the early part of the season. Miss Theresa Bluford and Mr. Barrington Carter are too well known to need comment. Miss Evelyn Ellis is a little lustful. We have an entrance ingratehate herself on the Avenue trans. The other members are: Jim Burris, Walter Robinson, and that wonderful artist, Mr. Luke Scott, of whom it is said, he is one of the best character actors of the Race. Last, he hast, we will have with us that little piece of art, such a fine impression when last here. All in all, this company of Lafayette Players will make an impression long to be remembered.

DUNSTAN'S DAY Affair in London a Great Success, Financially and Otherwise London, England, Oct. 3—Tuesday, Oct. 1 was known throughout London as St. Dunstan's Day, St. Arthur Pearson making it the occasion of a wide appeal for aid for St. Dunstan's Hostel for Blinded Soldiers and Sailors. This institution is doing a great and noble work for the heroes who have with one of the greatest blessings of the world share in the world's struggle. They are taught useful and self-sust- taining trades and many of them have already graduated and have been set up in business by the Hostel. It was up its splendid cause that St. Dunstan's Hostel was founded. There were numerous entertainments given in aid of it chief among those being the Charity Dance, held at Gra- tton Galleries by the Versatile Four— Mrs. A. A. Haston, G. W. Mills, A. Truck and G. L. Archer—in conjunction with Mr. H. Radley, Mrs. Haston had charge of the flower stand at the affair. There is no doubt but what this affair was the finest success, both from a financial and social viewpoint, of the season, and among those present in America, from the firm of America, including representatives from every one of the allied forces as well as members of the armies and navies. The tickets were sold at the Carlton, Ritz and Charlidge's Hotels, and the American metropolis, a fact which meant much prestige for the affair and the admissions paid amounted to $2,215, the flower stand taking in an additional $339, a not total of $2,614, which was handed over to the institution the following day. From the above mentioned, the $470 expenses paid, making the gross something like $2,944. The Versatile Four, who were responsible for the great success of the entertainment, have the best and most enduring reputation, white or Colored, in England, and working as the Versatile Three, the act is booked solid for the next six years, with 40 weeks of each year in London and permanently as the Four at Murray's Club, where they have already been engaged for five years.

We got about 100 miles off Hampton Roads and received orders from Washington to turn back and arrive in Paris on Monday.

When we disembarked at Newport News the police had to hold the crowds back so that we could march—the 5,000 of us—with overseas kits strapped on our backs, lead by our Colored commanders. When we hit the heart of the town we all sang in unison, "Coming Home, Coming Home, Lord, I'm Coming Home," and we wept and shouted with joy. Remember me to the bunch. Your old friend, SERGT.

These wells are fully equipped with large power plant and are connected up with the pipe line, and is bringing in money each day for our stockholders.

Sam is no chicken, but he is still full of plain, and only recently fought two hard twelve round contests in the East.

We are expecting to bring in a five or ten thousand barrel well on that lease which will make it worth over a million dollars. Don't forget that Butler County is the home of the biggest oil wells in the United States. A forty acre lease in the adjoining section to our lease was sold last week for 180,000 and only a few months ago the American Oil and Refining Company of Wichita, Kansas, sold a lease very close to ours for 1,500,000; so you can readily see we are playing for real big money. We are not quitters nor slackers; we are in the oil business to stay. I am a firm believer in that portion of the Scripture that says "The race is not given to the swift nor the strong, but to he who endureth to the end." I am pleased to know this world war for democracy is bringing my people so close together. We realize that our President is calling upon us constantly to buy Liberty Bonds, War Savings Bonds and to give to the Red Cross; but with all of that, my people are investing their money in Negro business enterprises, that we may be able to enjoy the luxuries of democracy the same other races; and we are at the same time opening up respectable positions for our boys and girls as they come out of school, and for our boys as they come back from France. Oil is the greatest builder of American fortune. Many persons have been made intensely rich from small investments in oil, the main thing is to invest in the company and at the right time. I firmly believe that this is the right time to invest, because the men are indeed World Wonders with reputation. I don't believe that more to get in on the ground vers such great possibilities.

Dash of the New York Spartans, who is now playing with the "Y" team, is fast winning a place in the hearts of the fans. Carter, former Dunbar star, is still blazing. Among the other shining lights, Nest Smith, M. Baker, Westmoreland, Marse, Simms, and Amos will be great aids to their respective teams. John D.

But listen, in closing this big deal in Montgomery County it has cost us an enormous sum of money. As a rule, in buying production you are required to pay all cash in full in one payment; but we were exceedingly fortunate in being able to swing this deal by paying a large amount down and the balance in payments. Now in order to rush in enough money to finish paying for this production and lease, we are offering to the public some of our stock at 50c per share; but just as soon as we have paid in full for this Montgomery County deal our stock will go to $1.00 per share. This is just as true as you are living, and my friend, we are going to drill well after on our Montgomery County lease, which can be done at a small cost as that is a shallow field.

We have bought two 80-acre leases and paid for them, which have both proven very valuable and productive. We have drilled three wells and have not struck a dry hole.

We have bought an eighth interest in a very valuable lease in Butler county, Kansas, which lease is owned by the World Wonder Oil & Gas Company, and when drilled upon we are almost sure will bring in some very large producing wells, as it is in the heart of the biggest wells in the United States, and last, but not least, we are going to pay to each of our stockholders a handsome dividend not later than Jan. 1, 1919. We, as officers of your Company, are compelled to congratulate ourselves upon such a wonderful success in the first year of our oil business, and you cannot imagine how proud we are that we have really made good to our people, but we feel that our success in the oil business has just begun. With your support and co-operation we are sure our Company will grow and grow and continue to grow to a much bigger and continued success. I only wish my people could see and realize as I do, the great fortunes that are in store for us, if we would only put our money together and invest it under honest and capable leadership.

The first intimation was when he committed when some children played in the basement, discovered an old man, bruised, bleeding and apparently lifeless, lying in a corner, and they notified the police and Sergeant Michael McHadden (white) of the 2112 Police Department (allegedly) case. By working unceasingly on the mystery he learned that Naylor was spending money profusely and John Harris (now in the bridewell) promised to point Naylor out to him, but with dreams of the future decided it was quite spectacular, according to Miss Wright, who testified that Naylor carried Iva Like, 2518 Federal street; Anna White, 2026 Federal street, and herself out riding in the biggest limousine she had ever seen, and they were just rounding the corner, 2518 Federal Street, and John Harris, 2026 Federal street, jumped on the running board and placed a gun to Naylor's head and declared him under arrest. Naylor was held until the arrival of the patrol wagon, where the watch was found under the seat of the car, and Naylor was found guilty of the robbery and will be sentenced later.

After we re-opened for business, notwithstanding the fact our service had been somewhat impaired they exercised sympathetic toleration showing by their pleasant conduct and conduct that they appreciated the circumstances under which we were being." The management has not as yet been able to compute the damage done.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER WE COVER CHICAGO LIKE THE MORNING DEW Postoffice Employes Adopt Novel Plan to Get Funds The postoffice boys can always be counted upon to put over something new and novel. Their latest took the form of daily jollification meetings in the rotunda of the postoffice at which time funds were raised to aid in the war relief work. This in reality was the object of the meetings, but in order to provide a more enjoyable music program of exceptional merit presented. J. Wesley Jones directed a large mixed chorus of trained voices that held the vast noonday crowds spallbound. Mine. Dewitt Smith was the soloist for two days. Mine. Anita Patti Brown, John W. Wiley, and White (white), also gave their services to the cause and it was a difficult matter to find one in the hearing of these artists who did not accclaim by hand clapping and by word of mouth how thoroughly they enjoyed the treat and best of all they went down in their hearts and gave tangible proof of the fact. Never before has such an affair been staged in Chicago and the boys in our mail service deserve great credit, as does the superintendent of the mails; who entered into the affair whole heartedly and gave the boys full power to the one boy got the affair up it did not of course prise, as all classes of the masses partook in that true Chicago style that has made this city so cosmopolitan.

Harrison in honor of her daughter Marion on Saturday evening, Nov. 16, at Oden Grove pavilion. The party consisted of the following young guests: Grace Anderson wore a gown of creep dechine; Miss Lucia Woodlee, wore a gown and pink chiffon and satin; Miss Dorothy Shoercraft wore a gown of turquoise blue satin and tulle; Miss Kate and pink organdie; Miss Harrison white and pink organdie; Miss Harrison was white point d'esprit and pink silk. She carried a bouquet of sweetheart roses. The feature of the evening was the tripping of the light fantastic toe. Marion and her brother Lawrence were 75 of Chicago's charming young people present. When the last strain of "Home, Sweet Home" was played by the orchestra there was a general sight of regret that the end of a period of great joy and happiness for women were all beautifully gowned and on the whole it was a picture that will be an everlasting memory to those present. Meadames L. B. Anderson and Charly Davis presided at the punch table for the meeting Joseph Christ assisted in covering the affair pleasant for all. Marion Bell's orchestra furnished the music for the occasion. Morsse's frape was served.

The article published in the of the November 5th edition of the Chicago Defender entitled, "Judge Cook displays rank racial prejudice in court decision" is not true. The alleged report of the court proceedings involving one Norval A. Wilburn and Mabie girl and contains comments and insinuations out by the actual trial of the cases. The cases were tried by me in open court, fairly, squarely and impartially on the law and evidence, and my judgment of convictions and sentences were and are based upon proof which my best judgment shows the guilt of the defendant. I fluenced and did not consider the color or race of either party involved. I did not call the defendant, Wilburn, a "coon." Had your paper or reporter inter- viewed me before printing the article in the truth of what I am saying, my opinion of what I am been apparent, and I am sure you would then not have published the article in question. In justice to myself and yourself I call upon you to publish this of mine in its entirety. (Signed) WELLS M. COOK, Judge of Municipal Court.

Urban League Makes Appeal The Chicago Urban League is sending a letter to the patrons and to the other business and professors, calling their attention to the many causes which contribute to the inefficiency of the Race in employment. The letter is also being mailed to men and women who have accepted positions in business houses which, until recently, did not employ Race members. In the letter to the persons who were hired, the following paragraph was used: "We feel that as an applicant for work in the present great area of re-construction, it is your duty to remember that in accepting new lines of work you are not merely a servant and employee for hire, but one of a Race whose members cannot afford to be careless and indifferent. You must always remember that upon your general education, and attention to dress and cleanliness, as well as efficient service, will the opportunity to continue in this work remain open to you, and the matter must be dealt with. THAT THE RACE, IN THIS NEW WORK, IS ON TRIAL IN YOU, AND IF YOU DO WELL, YOU WILL SERVE NOT ONLY YOURSELF BUT THE ENTIRE RACE. May we count on your co-operation in this matter? Yours most cordially, T. Arnold, Hill."

Mrs. Russell Sage. TUSKEGEE'S GOOD FORTUNE EVEN IN THESE TIMES when billions are spoken of as flippantly as were dollars a few years ago, when the coin of the realm is placed in the palm of our own hand it still looks large. One hundred thousand dollars was the sum left Tuskegee Institute by the will of the late Mrs. Russell Sage, the largest amount by far that has ever been left to a similar institution of learning. Everyone joices in Tuskegee's good fortune and Mrs. Sage has by her munificent gift made it possible for this institution to live on and enlarge the scope of its work without fear of the sheeriff's sale notice tacked on the property. We have given too little thought to our institutions of learning in the South since the great war has been on, the very time when our help was most needed. It is extremely fortunate that this country possessed a Mrs. Sage and that the god of fortune has been kind to her and that she in turn had the heart and willingness to use her good offices in doing something which will mean in return the elevating of others to her high and lofty stand. She has made the initial step in the great move that has for its object the elevation of mankind. Education is the most essential requisite in the rise of any people, and the long established policy of keeping a portion of the citizenry of a country in ignorance has been the direct cause of friction and the growth of discontent. No people can rise above the humblest among them. While we appreciate that there are no Mrs. Russell Sages among us, there are men and women who can and should give as liberally to our own institutions in proportion to their means as has this generous woman. We must begin to do more for ourselves. Instead of holding our hand out for alms we must go down in our own pockets and dig up. Tuskegee isn't the only institution that needs help; there are scores of others, not perhaps so prominently before the public eye, but good, substantial institutions doing a much needed work nevertheless. We all rejoice in Tuskegee's good fortune and will ever remember the good woman who put into practice the words of her Saviour: "As ye have done it unto the least of these my children, ye have done it unto me." Mrs. Russell Sage. Building for the Future HE WHO DESIGNS and construct present needs is a poor architect. For life has given no thought of what the wise stands still; it either forges a amount of push and energy put behind individual or set of individuals stand.

In the light of recent events this not only every indication of it becoming a reality presents to students who have given such matters thought, but it is simply the reckoning of time, that may never see this come in the next.

He has given no thought of what the murrows will bring. No business enterprise stands still; it either forges ahead or drops back, depending on the amount of push and energy put behind the venture by those higher up. No individual or set of individuals stand still; they likewise advance or recede. There is no half-way ground to finger on. History records the rise and fall of many countries preying consecutively that only the fittest survive. And now comes Greece, where the people are fighting in the vanguard of modern civilization, kicking over the traces and raising the question of whether she will step forward or backward in the days to follow. We are wont to say in a half serious, half joking way, Ethiopia shall again stretch forth her hand. In the light of recent events this not only seems reasonable, but every indication of it becoming a reality presents itself forcefully to the mind of students who have given such matters thought. The world moves slowly, a year is barely a day in the reckoning of time. Those of us who now live may never see this come to pass, but we can see and we do see the yellow, black and brown rares forging ahead; we have seen the Japanese, mullahs, blacks and browns; we have seen the native of darkest Africa shoulder a gun and give intelligent services; the present great conflict; we find ourselves making up strides under great difficulties that have made the civilized world take notice. Today we are making more history, again proving our worth and fitness to hold a place in the sun. We have learned through suffering and pain that a solid foundation must be put in before the superstructure can be built. And we are laying that foundation with patience, with brain and with brawn. Sometimes the envious tear down a part of the wall we are building, but willing hands are ever there to replace it. When it is considered that we are pulling our load out of the mire, that we are good, law-abiding citizens in face of the enemy, that we are good, no protection from the government to claim alliances, we must be It we are building for the future; we are able to distinguish between rent and party control. The constitution of these United States cannot be lived upon: the difficulty lies with those sworn to carry out the laws of the country. We ask for no special legislation, nor should we be expected to brook a line of law that would mean anything in this, radical changes must immediately be made. We must judge prejudice must no place and justice must be met out to all alike. We must build ourselves up without hindrance or let. We must have the right lot, for a man is not a man without that. In short, we must in every act exercise the full rights and privileges of an American citizen from now this country is to live up to its boast of being the father of democracy.

A FEW DAYS AGO one William H. Barr, president of the National Founders' Association of America, stated in an interview that the immediate effect of the closing of the war would be a reduction of wages and longer hours for labor. From far away Laredo, Texas, where labor delegates from many sections of the world are in conference, Samuel Gompers, head of the American Federation of Labor, hurls back a challenge of defiance. Mr. Gompers says labor will never submit to any such program, and in support of his position he cites the fact that labor is responsible for the winning of the world war. And because of the part it has played in the struggle it means to have something to say about working conditions in the future. It is a gem of the literary craftsmanship. Would it not be a fine thing to call a great lance conference in Washington, D.C., to discuss the future of the arts? We never measures may be necessary to observe the rights and privileges which are ours, and to send a message to the ARTIST (Bishop of the 5th District, M.F. Bishop of the 5th District, C. M. E. church). The attitude of Mr. Gompers, the accredited mouthpiece of organized labor in America, furnishes food for much thought. The little giant of labor has just come back to us from a survey of old-world conditions. In his trip abroad he met the labor leaders of all the great countries allied against Germany. He visited the battlefields and rubbed elbows with the transformed workmen of the world. He saw the artisan and the mechanic in the trenches and in the hospitals. He saw the sightless, the armless and legless who had "done their bit" to make the world a better place to live in. SIGNING OF PEACE ARMISTICE 'Tis done, the sword is laid to rest: By God, the nations now are blessed. Save those who by their greed for life buried death wrongs crumbling tower. 'Tis done, the Braves have paid the prize. A dreadful toll of sacrifice. To rescue from a Tyrant 'tian, The rights and liberties of man. There is no doubt but what a deep and lasting impression was made upon him by what he saw and heard, and we're not surprised that he has come back to his homeland more determined than ever that the men who have borne the brunt of the struggle shall have a commanding voice in the affairs of the labor world. The stand taken by Mr. Gompers with reference to wages and working hours undoubtedly will receive the strongest support from organized labor. It may presage an industrial clash, the outcome of which may well cause us the deepest concern. America is not altogether free from Bolshevism. It must not be forgotten that the present head of the Russian government, Leon Trotzky, was a soap-box orator in New York. Tis done, the people now rejoice. To God, they lift the heart and voice and gaze upon an earth made new. Baptized in blood yet pure as dew. Now let our inspire the mind. And useful arts engage mankind; For peace has victories yet to claim That give us strength — Edwin Garnett Riley. ROBERT ALLEN DIES Detroit, Mich., Nov. 22—Robert Allen died at the Manufacturer Mutual Hospital Saturday morning at 9 a.m. Mr. Allen's death is due to unknown causes. He went to his work as usual Friday evening and was taken his job about $30 Friday evening. His job was at the Tennessee river as steamboat fireman in the last of the seventies, and he was promoted in the early eighties as an engineer on the steamboat. He was one of the first men of the race that ever steamboat boat license in the south. He was one of the Mississippi river out of Memphis, Tenn., for the Lee Line Steamboat Company. After that he returned to Chattanooga, Tenn., and for the last eighteen or twenty years he was an engineer for one of the larger lumber mills of that city. He came to Detroit in 1905 and fifteen months ago, Mr. Allen being in the session of his marine license and other good recommendations he produced them to the employees of the Michigan Steel Casting Company and was employed by them at the time of his occupation His occupation was with the above company as a steel temperer, at which he earned a salary of $300 a month. Little did one listening to his harangues on New York's west side dream that some day he would become a world figure. Yet we not only see him a dominating influence over millions in his own land, but we have seen his doctrines spread until today the red flag of revolution is flying over the greater part of Europe, and the nightmare that is disturbing many a thoughtful man's sleep at this hour is: Will Bolshevism stop at the eastern shore of the Atlantic? We cannot contemplate without horror anything that might array class against class. Yet it cannot be denied that there is a growing spirit of unrest sweeping the world. To say that America will wholly escape a visit in some form of the malady is hoping for too much. This makes the challenge of Mr. Gompers deeply significant. What our own fate will be in such a struggle is of still greater significance. Judging by experience, we know only too well what the plan of the employing class will be. They will fight with every weapon at their command and it need cause no surprise if they seek that weapon in the thousands of our people who have come north in the last eighteen months, and the specter makes us tremble. BY YOUR UNCLE EPH Some Husband Your uncle is looking over the call numbers in the divorce court proceedings of the Superior Court and found a case entitled McCollens vs. McCollens, contracting parties being of New Orleans and Chicago. Mrs. Lela McCollens, a South Franklin street, New Orleans, and Mrs. of her husband, David McCollens, who resided at 454 East 37th street, Chicago, found out that "Darling Dave" had been somewhat unfathomful. From the records it shows that, the jovying Mr. McCollens at one time resided at 3291 Prairie street, New Orleans, during the name of Rebecca Miller, as and Mrs. David McCollens. It was also shown that they lived at one time in Blue Island as man and wife. In the records it is alleged that David McCollens resided with Liza Burns in New Orleans, the former covenance. The last named lady is the direct cause of the separation of Mr. McCollens and his wife, Lela. That the gravity of the situation has revealed itself to organized labor is proven by their recent efforts to organize the Colored workmen of the North. Heretofore it has been the policy of the labor leaders to close the door of unionism in the face of the Colored brother, and they now see the error of their ways. If the threatened clash must come we shall welcome it, whatever its consequences may be, if it will help us in securing better working conditions for our people and enlarged opportunities in the field of industry. If the hand of white labor is extended to us in good faith we shall be only too ready to grasp it. As we have marched side by side with the white brother upon the battlefields of Europe in a common cause for the betterment of mankind, so we will march with him in the ranks of peace toward the goal of mutual understanding and a common brotherhood. No other situation is compatible with the immense sacrifice of men, money and material that have been expended in the great conflict now happily drawn to a close. Bowling Vs. Bowling Again Mrs. Katie Bowling, 5263 Pearlborow street, and her husband, Prof. Alonza Bowling, 4381 Langley avenue, had this week. Attorney Richard E. Wiley convinced the professor, succeeded in convincing the judge that the $100 ordered by the court to be paid over to Mrs. Bowling was somewhat extortionate. He打赢了 the case down to $50, allowing motion he filled to review the whole proceedings. If the momentous tragedy now in its closing act does not bear such fruit, then the struggle has been fought in vain. In the meantime we of the Colored race must have a thoughtful eye for the future. Our policy of wasting and spending as fast as we earn must be changed to one of economy and saving. This is not mere rhetoric; it is sober fact. The doctrine of the survival of the fittest must not be lost sight of. Our workmen must make good in whatever line of employment we find ourselves. No revelry of the night before should keep us from being on time, whether we be employed in the stock yards, in the coal yards or upon the railroads. We should be attentive, shirking no task, but go about our employment with a spirit of willingness to give a fair return for a fair day's wages. By so doing we will be best able to sustain ourselves in the fierce competitive struggle that is bound to come in the period of re-reconstruction following in the wake of war. He Wouldn't Do It Your "Uncle Eph" dropped in at the Colonial barber shop a few nights ago and was conversing with William Buckner, the proprietor, who is known as one of the best story tellers on the stroll. He told one which goes like this: A colored brother died and was rushed up to the gate; and wasashed by the St. Peter stopped him and said, "Where are you going?" He said, "I am going in." Peter said, "Well, take this teaspoon and go back and level the Rocky Mountains down and then come back." The brother left and was gone eighteen years ago. Peter arrived at the gate again and said to Peter, "I have accomplished the task you gave me and have now returned to receive the divine favor. Peter said, "Oh I have kined forgotten you. Where did you come from?" Peter said, "I am sent me away eighteen years ago. I am sent 35th and State streets, Chicago." "Oh," says Peter, "I remember. Now take this thimble and drain Lake Michigan, then come back and I will see what can be done." The brother went away, succeeded in performing his task, Bright and early he arrived one morning at the heaven gate again. Addressing himself to Peter, "I have arrived again, asking divine favor," Peter said, "I don't remember you." The brother making himself known, says, "oh yes, I remember you now, back to back and forth and if you can get Teenan Jones and if you can get Teenan Jones to buy a drink, then come back and I will let you into heaven." The brother said, "Oh, no; I am not going to undertake that job; I'm going on to h- LIEUTENANT CHAMBERLIN, a Texan reared in the ideals of an old southern life, risked his life out in No Man's Land to save the life of a Colored soldier; which proves that a man can be a man regardless of his early training.

Evanston CHICAGO NOV.23,1918 pneumonia does not run a short course as lobar pneumonia. It may terminate in two or three days or run for many weeks, depending upon the severity of the infection and treatment and environments. Both are serious diseases. Bronchial pneuria or what is called Catarrhal Pneumonia, is often called Cardiopharyngeal Pneumonia, the lungs from coryza or cold, gradual in its onset and does no as short and as serious as lobar monitis. There is no known mea- ture in the cure of monitis. The best course to do is avoid contracting pneum —in other words, prevention. The end best thing to be done is to the poor victim in fighting the title is generated in his system germs. The patient of toxemia is kills the patient in the inflammation of the lungs. The poison is mediated by the germs in the system a very damaging effect upon the nays and especially upon the impulse. The vast majority of die from pneumonia in poison of the heart muscles.
