"Great things have been done by our boys over seas," he said, "and soon they will be coming home, coming home as American citizens. We are ALL American citizens. We are ALL American citizens. We will be tested by his worth and achievements and not by his physical size, not by his color. We are American citizens, all of us striving for some purpose, living under the same flag. What wonderful moment. Behold this little ophan girl, who has worked her way to the top. Hold her wonderful achievement! She took advantage of the opportunity, and did not sit down. Through her zeal, push, training and Christian day a living example of what opportunity will do if properly used by a trained mind." Dr. W. Samson Brooks, of Baltimore, who was the principal speaker, told of the union of the two givat minds, and of his first visit to the United States, the fact that they opened their business with prayer. "A people who pray and trust God will succeed," he said, and therefore we are all proud of Mr. and Mrs. Malone. There are three kinds of people in this world—producers, distributors, and consumers. The must be among the producers. He must put Brain in his products. Brain power guides the world, and if the Afro-American would be among the rulers, he must put brains into his work. Brain power will make the world baw at your feet.

She was a kind person, the word she gave to every appended to her. A striking example of bravery and driving home a thought, was demonstrated in the address of Prof. A. E.

This is a great hall for us, because these are reconstruction times." Mine. Anita Patti Brown followed with another fine selection. Thanksgiving there were many intercourse figures as at "Poro." It opened with services in the auditorium, presided over by Mrs. Malone. In fact this was the service that she seemingly entered into with her whole soul and heart. She had many things for which she was thankful, she said, among them being "an opportunity to meet with her," and it was a source of pleasure all the time. She read a scripture lesson in-keeping, with the occasion. Each employee and Poro agent had something to say, and it was surprisingly interesting to hear the stories told by her, who had been teaching school, had had "Poro" because—they could serve. Carey B. Lewis, the genial managing editor of the Chicago Defender, spoke. To him no meeting meant so much, he said. Editor George L. Knox also made a speech on "thanksgiving, Its What It Meant to the American People." It was a practical address. Newspaper Mcn Meet. The newspaper men attending the New Poro College - opening held a meeting in the afternoon, which was followed by a "smoker" and a visit to the various newspapers of the city under the escort of the local newspapers. Editor Harry C. Smith was chief editor of his confessors, and presided. Editor Abbott spoke on "Newspaper Making." Others followed him with singularly able addresses. The meeting was also addressed by Prof. A. E. Malone, who said that he was indeed to have the members of the press see and hear that they might tell their readers from their own viewpoint and not from his. He had a desire to serve his people, and stood ready to do anything in his power to that end. "I invited you because I wanted you to be here. This invitation you not to be here," he said. They found this to be the case, too Special. Thanksgiving dinner was served to all the visitors. A large crowd filled the auditorium and corridors, Thursday evening. It was necessary to have an overflow meeting in the dining room. Prof. David Gordon, principal of one. Rev. Lois L. Lee schools, presided. Rev. Mr. Searcy, assistant principal of the university and was followed by a selection by the Summer School Choral club. The "Michigan Nightingale," Mrs. Florence Colo-Talbert of Detroit, highly entertained the audience. Her voice routine. She is the winner of a diamond award. The Chicago Musical College and the Chicago voted her another when she had finished. She sang, "Lo, Hear the Gentle Lark" and the aria "Je Suis Titania," from Mignon. It was the crowning point of the evening. The teacher was the winner. Editor Nelson Crews of Kansas was a splendid effort by one of our best speakers and was most enthusiastically received. He maintained his reputation. Mr. Crews paid a high tribute to Mr. and Mrs. Malone for a contribution to the race. "I was told to write with me a white flag when I left home," he said. "White flags mean surrender and I did not feel that I needed one because I thought Kansas City led them all, but since I have been here and have seen this magnificent structure and Mrs. Malone. This is a great building, and we rejoice with you because of it. St. Louis Afro-Americans lead the world!" Captain Robert A. Byrd, of Springfield, a former Ohio, was the next speaker. He, like all the others, had many good friends and loved him and Mrs. Malone, and desired that the race could not say too much in praise of them and their great accomplishment. Dr. J. T. Caston, representing our local Business League, also spoke. The members of the Chicago Musical College and Mrs. Malone andEditor Abbott followed the Doctor and Editor W. E. King read the following resolution unanimously adopted by the newspaper men: Continued on Page Four.

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1915. REAL RACE PHILANTHROPISTS That is just what Prof. and Mrs. A. E. Malone of St. Louis, Mo., are. They have erected a wonderful plant and purpose that much of it shall be devoted to the benefit of the race. They have given thousands of dollars to our charitable institutions and worthy needy organizations and individuals of that city and still persist in their philanthropic stand that "money is to be used and not kept," at least all beyond their personal need, which they have limited. They are really and truly a Christian couple worthy of the highest commendation and regard. Five thousand dollars to our St. Louis Y. M. C. A.; one thousand to the Bundy defense fund; the purchase of a brick residence, the home of an aged couple of the race, who were about to lose it, in which the old people are installed for life, and many other acts of a similar nature that speak for Mr. and Mrs. Malone louder and better than all the words that could be employed by a literary artist, are citations that must carry conviction. May God continue to bless and strengthen them in their work and in their latest effort to "erancipate the young intelligent women of the race from the kitchens of St. Louis white people." Prof. and Mrs. Malone, "The Old Reliable" Gazette salutes you and would duplicate the "Chautauqua salute" we gave you, last week, Friday evening, had we the splendid audience presided over in the beautiful new Poro College building. WHO IS OUR LEADER? Many persons are asking who is the leader of our people? Some have designated their choice while others are still grouping about in the dark hunting one. There has never been and never will be a leader of the colored people. Frederick Doughlass was the leader in the emancipation struggle. After it ended, his mission ended, but in the sphere of human rights he is among the foremost in the world's history. Booker T. Washington was acclaimed the leader by many of his enthusiastic followers, but the race, as such, never accepted him as such. Many persons desiring to help the race centered their resources at the hands of Mr. Washington and through him these could be received. Many persons have hailed the editor of the Crisis as the one fearless and the compromising champion of the rights of our people but there are very many who bitterly opposed him and never accepted his leadership. Since the Editors' Conference at Washington, D. C., in June, has been said to displace him in the confidence of those who once implicitly trusted his leadership. To his tacit agreement to enter the war service, which meant the closing of his mouth on many vital issues effecting the race, the colored world has said "And Thou Too, Brutus." It is well for all to recognize now that no one man can embody in himself the qualities that will make him the accepted leader of twelve millions of any people. Solidity in religious creeds, habits and thoughts has been the great draw back to our race. There must be beacon lights who must lead in chosen spheres and in their spheres all men will honor them. Booker Washington was the leader in industrial education, the chief. DuBois WAS considered a leader in the equal rights effort for our folk but unfortunately there has arisen a question even as to this now. What the race needs most now is a fearless leader in civil and political rights effort. This leader must demand every right for the race that the most favored race enjoys. The ballot must be given to all of our people upon the same terms as all other races have it in America. Our civil rights must be as inviolable in Georgia as in New York and no person allowed to feel that he can abrogate any of our rights without there being visited upon him summary and severe punishment. That portion of the country, the South, which has been and is the great offender in this respect must be made to know that it cannot do so any longer. The destruction of our rights, like the enshrement of the person, cannot be tolerated anywhere on the American continent. This leader, who will bring this about, will merit his place along side of George Washington, Lincoln, Frederick Douglass and the other great deliverers of races from oppression. This leader cannot do this work and remain in the South. Like Douglass, if he is there, he must escape to free soil, where the rope is not so handy. The apologist for the iniquities of the South cannot be heard now. He is a traitor to the race who because of position conferred, or money given him, will close his mouth. He is a traitor to our boys who have given their lives, who ask them to not insist upon every military honor that the government confers upon their station. He is a traitor to the race who says to our soldier that he must not insist upon exercising the same rights that white soldiers have. This doctrine of surrendering rights now, is undemocratic and unmanly. To say to our civilians now to not ask and demand the same rights that white Americans demand, is to ask them to be puppets and cowardly slaves. To say to the South that we are satisfied with "jim-crowism," brutal treatment and color-line government, is to believe our own decent selves. We say now to all political parties that we demand of them to enthrone in America a government by party that is fair to all alike and will protect all alike and will use every gun of the nation to protect these rights even to the shedding of blood. Whoever aspires to leadership NOW must say to Messrs. Wilson and McAdoo that it is unjust to use the federal government to "jim-crow" the race that constitutes the only one hundred-percent. Americanism. Say to them that God, justice and their own shibboleth—democracy for the world—demand that no "jim-crow" cars be operated by this government. "Jim-crowism" is southernism, and "jim-crowism" is southernism, and real democracy our President and the Director-General of Railroads must choose! If they choose southernism, they must repudiate democracy. Upon this platform we stand and the gates of hell will not move us. DOINGS OF THE RACE Nine more Afro-American army chaplains were appointed late last month. Major J. E. Spingarn is in France near some of our soldiers, but is not stationed among them. Rev. J. H. Dorsey, priest, of Baltimore, Md., has opened his campaign of raise $10,000 for the colored Catholic orphans of that city. Dr. H. B. Delaney was consecrated as Suffragan Bishop of the P. E. diocese of North Carolina, recently, at Raleigh, N. C. Representatives of our people will visit in Pakistan, D. C., next week, to collect delegates to the World's Peace Conference. The U. S. Division of Films has issued a two-reel moving picture, "Our Colored Fighters," which shows our boys at cantonments and in action overseas. One of our officers in France, Corp. C. H. Drysdale, was refused refreshments (food) in (American) Y. M. C. A. restaurants at Tours and Dijon, France. Bern Williams is in vaudeville for several weeks prior to going to Ziegfeld's Midnight Frolic atop the New Amsterdam Roof, N. Y. City. He is at the Palace theater, that city, this week. The president has sent Principal R. R. Moton, of Tuskegee Institute, Ala., to France on a secret mission," we learn from splendid authority. Lester A. Walton of N. Y. City has gone with him as his secretary. Lieut. Brandon Finney (white) 25th U. S. Infot., shot serpent. Wm. J. White of Co. F, same regiment, in the back and killed him because the latter saluted Finney with a cigaret in his mouth. The lieutenant is awaiting trial by court-martial on a charge of murder, at Nogales, Ariz. Beauregard Rosely, Esq, has amended that the court tag day among our people resulted in a collection of $723.51 for use in providing a defense for D. Leroy N. Bundy, dentist, on trial at Waterloo, Ill., for alleged participation in the East St. Louis riots of July, 1917—Chicago Idea Fifty-five Y. M. C. A. centers are conducted in cantonments among troops in America which are presided over by 282 colored secretaries. Fourteen additional secretaries are serving Student Army Training Corps units in our colleges. There are forty-nine serving overseas, making a grand total of 331 colored "Y" secretaries doing war work. Only three colored women have been assigned to go to France as canteen workers in Y. M. C. A. huts. Not less than one hundred are needed to look after the thousands of colored troopers as no white canteen worker can. Less than fifty colored Y. M. C. A. secretaries have been sent overseas. There ought to be many many more. We ask Dr. John R. Matt and his associates why is not a real democracy established in the Y. M. C. A.? - N. Y. Age. BEST FOR THE BLOOD — Pure Herbs.

Malone, sec-treas., as exemplified in the beautiful building here erected; and "Whereas, through their far-sightedness and intelligent value of the power of the press, they have extended to us a warm welcome to be present at this auspicious opening, which invitation we have availed ourselves of; therefore be it "Resolved, that we extend a vote of thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Malone for the courtesies extended us while here, and wish for them the greatest measure of success in their splendid entertainment and business "Signed, John H. Murphy, chairman; W. E. King, secretary; Harry C. Smith, J. Anthony Josey, J. L. Thompson, committee on resolutions." Representing the Poro agents, Mrs. Mitte Johnson addressed Mrs. Malone, using also the following verse: "From every section you have come, Joyful tidings to us bring. We receive you with glad hearts, And praises for you sing. "The employees of Poro College Wish to mingle their voices today Along with all these numbers great; All hail! All hail this happy day. No greater gift from mortal hand, To us has e'er been given, Than this gigantic structure, With its marble, wood and brass riven. "This opening week will ever mark An epoch in our lives; Long live the great Malones To aid mankind as he aspires "To greater things and higher plans Than ever he has found, And may his love for them increase As he mounts the ladder, round by round. "And may the generations yet unborn Be ever taught to know The great and lasting good they've done For the nations here below." "And now in behalf of the faithful, well-trained highly appreciative 125 employees of Poro College, please allow me, one of this number, the great honor of presenting you this beautiful bouquet in appreciation of our great esteem for you." "This is a complete surprise to me," said Mrs. Malone. "We live together here like one big family. I try to make every one around me feel like we are all one family. From time to time they have done little things for me, but never before have I been so impressed by their kindness that we have the slightest idea that they were thinking of us in this way. I assure von that I thank von all." Two hundred people attended the Thanksgiving evening overflow meeting in the dining room, also addressed by Mr. Crews, after finishing his speech in the auditorium. Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Cleveland (O.) Gazette, who has served three terms (six years) in the Ohio legislature, has been a special speaker. "The presence of many editors of race newspapers is a distinct compliment to Prof. and Mrs. Malone, who are conducting what is generally conceded to be the greatest race business enterprise to date. He referred to the fifty-six colored teachers in the mixed schools of the city of Cleveland as possessing the most enchanting thing of a racial nature for that city, and cited the enactment of Ohio's Civil Rights Law and Anti-Lynching Law, the killing of a vicious harmful anti-intermarriage bill and the barring of the infamous photo play, "The Birth of a Nation," from the state, three years ago and again two months ago, as the most distinctive racial successes of recent years in the state of Ohio. Editor Smith's testimony, withEditor Crewsceived and drew from Editor Crews and other strong words of commemoration. Saturday afternoon the building was again crowded, and an overflow meeting was again necessary. Dr. Mary Fitzbutter Waring of Chicago chairman of the Col. Denison Auxiliary Red Cross Work at Olivet Baptist church, and captain of the canteen team which meets and serves soldiers RICHEN L. L. CANNIN Bishop L. J. Coppin. passing through the city, was the speaker. She said in part: "What plan can be advanced, what method can be pursued to draw together the factions of our people? What has been is, what will be must be the work of concentrated opinion toward furthering the great thought that our president has voiced—making the case that this we must make America safe for all American citizens. If there ever was a time when we needed to eliminate the class of our people who are willing to wear a collar and believe in segregation and submission, it is NOW! We have done all they asked us in this world war and now in the time of terms let America accord to the Afro-American the rights of MEN, and let America take her place with other great world-powers in giving the dark races credit for their part in upholding right. Let us be raised on the basis of ability and efficiency, and on color. James Ussher presided at the meeting, Saturday, and the soloist was John W. Evans. Editor George W. Harris delivered the speech of the occasion. He said that he came to see the great building and like the Queen of Sheba he was ready to say that the half had not been told. Nick Chiles, editor of the Topeka (Kan.) Plaindealer, followed Mr. Harris and a moving picture exhibition was put on for a short time, showing the progress of Poro and some other interesting things racial. Group and individual photographs of the agents of Poro were made, Friday and Saturday. Also moving pictures of the crowds passing in and out of the building. Sunday marked the closing of the exercises, and it was considered a great day. At a time when all the churches were not in service, several thousand people were turned away from the building. The Poro Choral Cub, furnished music. John B. Vatak, presided. Dr. O. M. Murray made the opening prayer. Rev Wm H, Peck introduced the speaker, Dr R. E, Jones, editor of the New Orleans (La.)

AN "OHIO BOY" Scores Big in the "Blue Grass State" —Fearless and True to the Race. Louisville, Ky.-Phil H. Brown, State Director of Afro-American Activities, Federal Food Administration of Kentucky, and editor of the Hopkinsville (Ky.) Saturday News, scored heavily for the race when he addressed the Food Conference that assembled at Seedlach Hotel in this city, recently. The conference was made up of 800 white delegates active in food conservation and the audience was composed of seven hundred of the most prominent citizens of the state. Director Brown, who was the only member of the race in attendance, was on the program the first day of the meeting with R. W. Boy- ley, the Director of the Bureau of Enforcement of the U. S. Food Administration, was present as the personal representative of Mr. Editor Phil H. Brown. Hoover. The Louisville Evening Times those offices at 91. Bennett's address: thus refers to Mr. Brown's address: "Phil H. Brown, director of the Afro-American state organization, which Mr. Hoover recently complimented as being the best, headed the program and divided honors with R. W. Boyden, the distinguished Boston lawyer. Mr. Brown said: 'There is only one unfinished business, since we have now a clean slate between the races, and that is to make the safety of our people a virtue at a ritual: democracy that is strong enough to reach across the seas, should have potency equally as essential at home. I am not asking for commendation for myself, but for consideration for my people. Divide the humanity that you are showering upon the Belgians, the Serbs and the Poles with a race that has assayed 100 per cent of loyalty to the American ideals and endeavors.' At the conclusion of his address the delegates arose and voted a pledge for a better understanding between the races in Kentucky." CAMP GRANT'S SOCIAL ITEMS. Rockford. 111.

McEwen. Editor Gazette, Dear Sir; Relative to the 274 men of the 24th U. S. Inf., here, I wish to say that a majority of the detachment (attending the "Non-Coms" School) have received their promotion. Fifty were made sergeants, 100 corporals and 50 were sent to other camps as instructors. The school has been discontinued. We now have forty attending the Cooks and Bakers School to be attended by the sergeants and cooks. The remainder are attending the Mechanics' School to become supply sergeants and mechanics. [Name] Col. Charles Young. We are all "tickled to death" to have Col. Charles Young of Ohio here (in Camp Grant) with us. The most of the mcn here (from the 24th U. S. Inf.) soldiered under him down in old Mexico in 1916. He is in command of the developing battalions. The colonel delivered on address, the first of the week. In Rockford of the Soldiers' Club and was one that will long be remembered. All enjoyed it. His audience included members of both races. Yours resp. Scriet. Samuel G. Chadman Formerly Co. C. 24th U.

Windsor of Rayville, La., and the Twelve-Star Service Pin Presented to Him by the American Red Cross. Having the right to and needing a twelve-star service pin, the Rev. R. H. Windors of Rayville, La., a zealous Red Cross worker, has been presented with a unique decoration by the American Red Cross. The father of nineteen sons, twelve of whom are with the colors, this genial colored minister of the Baptist church probably holds the record for sons in the military service of the United States. If there are any others with similar or better status, they are yet to be heard from In the accompanying illustration of the twelve-star pin, topped with the Red Cross insignia, it will be noted that the first bar bears five stars. These represent five individual sons—Bennie, Robbin, Jeff, Johnnie and Archie. The next bar bears two stars representing twins, George and Lafayette; the next bar is similarly decorated, representing William and James, also twins; and the bottom bar, with its three stars, represents the triplets, Matthew Mark and Luke. Eight of the boys are volunteers, and the other four were called in the drums. Upon hearing of the remarkable record of the Windsor family, President Wilson, who is also president of the American Red Cross, wrote to the Rev. Mr. Windsor as follows: "I am writing to say with what interest and admiration I have learned of the fact that twelve of your sons are in the service of our country, and the thirteenth impatiently waiting to follow them in. This is a splendid record, and I congratulate you from the bottom of my heart. The colored troops have proved themselves fine soldiers." THIS IS THE WAY TO DO IT! Wilson, N. C.—As the result of the slapping of Miss Mary Euell, a teacher in our graded school here, by Prof. C. L. Coon, (white), the superintendent of public education, which occurred some months ago, our residents have opened a private school where they are sending their children, refusing to have the young folk educated at the public institution of learning. The private school is chartered under the laws of North Carolina with two Afro-American principals and seven teachers, and has an attendance of around 250. Less than a dozen children attend the public school. The private school is being maintained by our people of this city. NATIONAL CAPITAL NOTES. Washington, D. C.—Lieut. Robert L. Campbell of the 36th Infantry, was mentioned, recently, by the War Department as among the fourteen Yankees decorated by General Pershing for special acts of valor. The practice long in vogue in the South of rarcelling out Congress districts on the basis of population and then permitting only white men to vote is to be attacked by the Republicans the minute they a sume control of the next Congress. The removal of Huss Jeannette Cartier, the wife of the Afro-American section of the Housing Corporation, in the Department of Labor, at the instance of Dr. George E. Haynes, chief of the Bureau of "Negro" Economies, is said to be one of the most peculiar cases of its kind on record in the departments here. A General Receives Some "Bawling Out." Spartanburg, S. C.—When Gen. O'Neill of Allentown came here recently his train was three hours late. The Afro-American escort appointed to receive him at the station had been dismissed. The general waked. Presence was posited by a sentry. "Who is you?" "General O'Neill." "Well, you cut the buck and and go up there to headquarters to beat the debbil and see my captain and expin yourself. We's been waitin' three hours for you." Subscribe Now! RED + CROSS CHRISTMAS ROLL AND YOUR NAME ISN'T THERE! WANTED!
