The Negroes in your country disaffirmed, he declared in an interview yesterday. "I do not attach blame to any one, but I do know that the opportunities for the American career are increased those in the United States. "We don't know what race riots are in Liberia. My countrymen run the entire government and are adancing importance to the point that the American government let us $5,000,000. We have a country the size of the state of Ohio, with a population of 2,500,000, two colleges, banks and an agricultural, and that cannot be surpassed anywhere. "I liberals all talk English, as the country was started in 1848 by Americans as a colonization project. Our constitution is almost identical with the constitution of the United States, and his supervision our customers for many years, following a loan to Liberia, but now we are asking for an American protectorate, in effect, that give the United States as commercial force to American interests wish to take advantage of it." King said that he hoped to arrange with the American government for expert advice on administration and the judicial branches of government to be sent to Liberia.

Corpus Christi, Texas, Sept. 16.—Approximately 175 refugees have been rescued at Odem, about thirty miles west of here, according to a telephone message received here. They had been carried across Nuessee,爽爽 greatly from exposure. They are being cared for by citizens until vehicles can be sent here to bring them to Corpus Christi.
Launch Seeking Victims.
Corpus Christi, Texas, Sept. 16.—A launch in charge of Charles McManus, of the local United States Employment Service, left here shortly before noon for Rockport in an effort to learn the fate of that town, the launch also stop at Port Aransas.
Mounting rapidly as reports from heretofore isolated sections began from the tropical rainforest suit of the tropical hurricane which Sunday swept the Gulf coast at and around Corpus Christi, was placed at from seventy to 150 today.
Just what the storm's toll was, probably will not be known for several days, for reports show bodies along the Nuessee at secured points along the Nuessee Corpus Christi Bay, one compilation giving the total recovered at several points as seventy.
Victims found along the bayshores were believed to be largely from Corpus Christi, their bodies whirled away from the city by the receding waters of the ten-foot tidal stream, on a sixty-mile scale early Sunday.

MEXICAN SMUGGLERS ARE BUSY AMONG NEGROES.
Key West, Fla., Sept. 18. —Quite a sensation was caused here when it was learned that two local Negroes, Will and Leonard Kemp, had made efforts to purchase a large amount of ammunition from Key West dealers. Will Kemp went to William Curry Some company store and attempted to purchase 40 and 44 calibre cartridges to be used in Marlin rifles only. At about the same time, his brother, Leonard, was at H. Holkowski's place of business and worked with the company 32 and 1,000 rounds of 38 calibre cartridges. A clerk at the Curry sons store became acquainted and they phoned the Deputy Sheriff. Deputy Curry requested the dealers not to sell the ammunition to the Negroes as he desired to investigate the Negroes under arrest. The Negroes state that a strange Spanish hired them to try to buy the ammunition of the size and in the quantities officers believe that it was intended to secure the ammunition and smuggle it through Cuba into Mexico. The matter is being investigated and international developments are expected. There is absolutely not the least presence of any strife here between the Negroes and the calibre cartridges were wanted by the local Colored population is not entertained.

Who Storm Strick Corpus.
Houston, Texas, Sept. 16. The storm which struck the west coast near Corpus Christi, Sunday noon carried buildings and wreckage 20 on Saturday. At Odem and Sinton and intermediate farm or ranch houses near the Nueces river seventy are known to be dead, that many bodies had been searching parties up to last night. After torrents of rain all morning and a heavy wind the big wave struck the town about 2 o'clock Sunrise, and the water feet in less than ten minutes. This was followed in a few minutes by large waves which washed houses from their foundations and tossed the roofs of the buildings of paper. A house washed from its foundations, would be carried like a baiting ram against a nearby structure and both would crumble in. Many people caught in the wreckage were killed almost instantly.

JUDGE TAKES CHARGE ON RACIAL UIFEST
(Associated Negro Press.)
Frankfort, Ky. Sept. 18—The general unrest throughout the United States was the subject of the charge against Stout and the grand jury convened for the fall term. Race riots which have disgraced other sections of the United States, Judge Stout said, were the result of Stout's arrest and he clared he had not heard that any ill-feeling existed between the races in his judicial district.
The ways to prevent such outbursts of violence was the rigid enforcement of the law. As far as his information carried him, he said, he did not know of a single instance when the Negro man had attacked Stout. The juries of this district because he was black or for any other reason.
An impartial enforcement of the law was declared when the vent not only an attack between the races, but would be the proper step in the direction of allaying the unrest between the man and the law, and at the time when men had occasion to bring their disputes into the courtroom, the judge ought not to be any discrimination because one is white and the other is black. Men had the right to sequestration. Men said he, but treatment should be given to every man on trial.

To Launch Big Fight Deal
(Associated Negro Press.)
Ill., Sept. 13, 18—There will be a Colored heavy-weight champion of the world, no matter whether Jack Dempsey is beaten by a Colored man or not. The title was held just once by a Colored man—when Jack Johnson's burns in Australia—and lost it again to Jess Willard in Havana, Cuba, in 1915. For a period of six years the Colored player was sued, but gotten into serious trouble with the United States Government it might have been for a much longer period. Willard refused to battle with a player from Johnson, and so far Dempsey has intimated that he will refuse to meet a Colored man for the championship. Therefore Billy McClain, a wealthy promoter, Colored of a heavy-weight race will have a heavy-weight championship of their own.
McClain arranged for the holding of a big tournament of Tulsa, Okla., for the elimination affair—the final winner to be crowned champion heavy-weight of the world among the Colored Race. A diamond belt valued at $2,500 and an amblicatic prize valued at $2,000 for the prize to be battled for. Mr. McClain is putting this belt, and a share of the receipts will be utilized in erecting a handsome stadium at Tulsa, so that sports of all kinds can be played. It is being issued in shares of $10 each and the holder of a certain amount of stock will have entry to the matches at all times. It will be patterned National Sporting Club of London.
The first of the elimination matches was held on Monday night, August 4, but it was not decisive. Sam Lang-Willis, 15, and his team of 15 round draw. The winner of that match was scheduled to tackle Harry Willis, and the lucky one here will get Kid Norfolk for the final match. The other contenders will be the other Colored contenders will meet a mighty boy can hurt to crack. The old boy can still travel, as Tate can attest, and if he meets Harry Lang-Willis, it is too bad that Sam McVey and Joe Jeanette are not entered, or rather that they are not in shape for it. Both were grand old fighters who were not weight—Johnson, Langford, Jeanette and McVey—and there were few white fighters who wanted their game. According to Howard Carr, who runs a gymnasium in Chicago, Langford may be put into a movie picture as the hero of a three film photoplay. Carr intends to write the scene. He will be himself during the big plank in

PLENTY OF WORK—HIGHER WAGES—GOOD LIVING CONDITIONS.
(Associated Negro Press.)
Memphis, Tenn., 18-11. Plenty of farm and mill work, better wages than ever before paid and improved living conditions await southern Negroes who have gone to the North and who now are said to be clamoring to return to the South, according to employers here.
Southern farmers and plantation owners want the southern Negroes back. If there were some methods of getting in touch with it is declared that the Negroes would be willing borne. This will hold especially true for the next few weeks, because there is need to care for the cotton crop.
But these employers say they do not want northern-born and reared Negroes. They would prefer to bring in the Negroes. They can get southern Negroes, which you grow, who have gone from Mississippi, Arkansas and Tennessee," said A. C. Lange, vice-president and general manager of the Chicago Mill and Southern Negroes, which you grow, than 70,000 acres of timber and agricultural lands in northwestern Arkansas. "I think it is safe to say at expense to hire southern farmers and plantation owners know where and how to get in touch with the Negroes, who will have no northern Negroes."
The question of how to get in touch with Negroes who have gone north was discussed at the Memphis land Association several days ago, and the subject will be a special order of business at the next meeting. The association is a organization of bankers, land owners, chambers of commerce, planters and lumbermen of the lower Mississippi Valley formed to serve in a measure, and try as the chamber of commerce serves the town or city. At the last meeting it was said that there is a lower Mississippi Valley lower Mississippi Valley and especially for Negro labor acquainted with southern agricultural methods and with cotton growing and handling.
Chicago in the fall, when over 15,000 Colored people are present, Sam will be running in opposition to Jess Land Association. And at that Sam is some action man.

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1919.
It would appear that a superior race would be able to maintain its superiority with equal opportunities. Why discriminate against the Negro?
Has the Negro more opportunities than he is able to use? We notice that he fails to take advantage of many that are within his reach.
The high cost of living accompanied by the cost of high living will no doubt prove to be unwelcome guests before the coming winter has disappeared.
The claim that the present treatment of the Negro is for the protection of society is untenable. Civilization can not hold her heart against it. It may be doubt of its being worth protection.
The athlete who trains for a hundred yards dash many not hope to compete successfully in a long cross country run. Neither the athlete nor the commercial agent unless he receives the proper training. It matters little where or how his training is acquired. It may be by his own effort or by both, yet it must be obtained.
Parents should see to it that the child learns some trade or profession. The unskilled laborer of today is an object of pity. He is at the mercy of his employer and must accept whatsoever wage offered him. He may be discharge if he and has had a contract. The chief cause is that his place is so easily filled, because no preparation is required.
We speak of this for two reasons: First, the unskilled laborer is unprotected by labor organizations; hence, he is not protected by respect. Secondly, because the great majority of our race belongs to this class of laborers. Let us see to it that the young generation of our people are trained in some of the skills it will not be required to fight the battle of life without a weapon.
THE OPENING OF OUR PUBLIC
The opening of our public schools this week again reminds us of both the lack and the imperative need of sincere co-operation of the parents in carrying corps in order to contain a maximum of efficiency.
When we realize that the future prosperity and social status of the children will be improved in quality and quantity of information received and retained by the children of our public schools, the necessity of co-operation becomes more apparent. The success of a pupil in the classroom is dependent upon the attitude of the child toward the teacher and the school. This attitude is often the result of the influence wielded by his parents and the teacher. It is entirely too much disaerting criticism of the Colored schools from older persons, persons often incapable of passing upon the merits or demerits of the teacher or the teacher brings the child to school in a frame of mind unified either to receive or retain the instructions offered him.
It is in the public where the child becomes master of those characters and stamina required to come the heir to the past experiences of the human family. To those who realize the value of such experience the education of the child will apprise us of its welfare as its food and clothing.
The fact, that society has decreed, by the establishment and support of a free public school system in every civilized country, that education is essential to prepare one for the inducible man, and obligations to his fellow man, inclusive evidence of its value. Not only has the state made it possible, that every child receive this primary training but it has made it obligatory by statute that each and every child does receive it. In the public schools of the parental dutes, if the parental dutes. If the parental these duties society must perent is incapable or unwilling to perform them for its own protection. The formation and establishment of those fundamental habits that are necessary for any education of life thus become part of the work of the public schools.
Practuosity, industry, truthfulness, thrift, honesty and a knowledge of the duties, rights, and privileges of the individual in social organization on a scale more extensive than the duties of the primary schools.
This part of the schools work should be supplementary to the work of the home. However in our Colored schools there are those who must depend almost entirely on the school instructional aides. We do not think it any reflection upon the parents of the Colored children to say that the work of the Colored teacher is far more arduous than that of the white teacher, and the management of the Colored parent has not fitted him so well to perform his duties as the white parent. This work however, society has decreed must be done. The Colored teacher, the hired servant of society is exerted. The Colored teacher, To say that the Colored teacher is often ill prepared to meet this arduous task can not be denied. There are many reasons for this. The most potent however, lies in the fact that the renumeration does not justify the work to meet the problems presented in the Colored schools would require greater skill than to meet those to be solved in the white school. Even if the pay justified the preparations required, this opportunity and facility are far more to those of the white.
Hence, if the race hopes to make progress through and by means of the public schools, co-operation and sympathy must be withheld from the Colored teacher.
In order to further prepare the child for the part he is playing in the social organization, the free secondary schools offer elective courses that will develop the child to select which will directly assist him in the trade or profession which he intends to pursue. The directing of secondary schools channel makes it possible to concentrate all his power toward his chosen vacation. Much time and money may be saved by such concentration of effort. The nature of the school system that especially demands the co-operation of teacher, parent and child in order that valuable time and energy be not wasted. Consult with the teacher and assist him in the best course for the child to select. Learn from the child his inclinations and aspirations and backed by your own knowledge of the child's ability consult his instructors and assist him with the best lines that will develop his best talents.
THE MISSION OF THE NEGRO PRESS.
The press is the great educator of the age. There are a greater number of persons receiving their sole instructions, relative to economic, social, and cultural conditions, than the medium of the press than may be found in all the universities of the world.
There are in the United States alone upwards of 30,000 regularly issued publications. In these periodicals, the press is the most active people write little much. These publications thus become the mirror of public opinion. Perhaps it would be nearer the actual truth to say that they become the formers of public opinion.
The press is the most democratic institution in the world—one of the most completely democratic. This is its great strength as well as its great value. The press is the least important institution that must be heard upon all objects relatives to the public weave. There have been periods of great public danger in when the press was more or less censored, yet at all times it has continued to be the source of information for the masses.
Institutions, Societies and races have from time immemorial used the press to advance their interests and to inform the public at large containing their attitude toward all great questions affecting the public welfare.
The mission of the Negro press is to perform this time honored service for our race. It must serve solemnly the interests of the Negro race in particular. If shiarks either of these obligations it falls in its mission. That all such periodicals should show prejudice in favor of the people they represent must be respected. The sniper that will not blow his own horn if his reputation as a musician is in question. Hence we may reasonably expect the Negro paper to be partial to the interests of the whose mouthpiece it has become.
Furthermore, one might reasonably expect to find within the columns of such a paper a discussion of those subjects upon which its purpose was to inform. Such a paper would signify fail in its mission if it did not defend the rights and privileges of the race against all who might assail them. If such a paper was not written for a friend lived in the immediate neighborhood or dwelt in some distant land, his conduct, in so far as it was detrimental to the beat interests of the race, was not unaccented on no uncertain language through the medium of the race paper. There have been in all ages of press activity certain yellow journals that have been to the cause they expounded. That such periodicals should be found among Negro publications is no surprise. That such yellow journals are to do more damage among our people than any other publication of its type among other people may not
Our press should demand that every man be put to work and every he be punished to the extent of the law. When we do this the press should take the race over the time and continue to grow less and hands will eventually clasp access the heretofore impossible gulf that divides the interests of the two races. Let the press fearlessly do its whole duty to ensure that the injustice in general can not be over estimated advise our people that they have the power in their own hands to better their condition. Teach them that there are thousands and many people suffering discrimination as a result of their own misconduct. Our people must learn that there is no short route by which we many come into possession of an improved humane society to become a better people. To become a better people means work for all of us who are able to work and work can begin anywhere. The oppression that had a hundred hands up to be seized from any point of vantage. If we as a race will only keep away from quack cures for our social and political ailments, if we are able to get down to real business and seek self improvement we will soon find that many of the discriminations that now block our progress will disappear. Education is what we need—it is what we need to help the mind. To work is what we need—to work on ourselves. The common ordinary individual must be shown how to fit himself and his family for real citizenship. This is the responsibility of the Negro. We have some common distance on it and we shall go much further. New generations are coming on to be trained to their work. Let the press perform its full duty with the help of the Negro. This legion will come forth to protect it in the performance of its legitimate mission.
THAT TERRIBLE MOB AGAIN.
(Washington, D. C. Ctar.)
Washington, D. C. (U.K.) The mob spirit is undoubtedly increasing, and unless resolution, it may be inspired by no particular crime. It fames up everywhere, and sometimes under comparatively trival influences. No locality would be more prone to this than itself in one community and now in another. It is liable to show itself anywhere. We are all very much and very properly concerned about the situation and that at present bearing upon the public welfare. But in there, could there be, a greater question that this? The high cost of living in the United States is low value placed upon human life. How about this constant and frequent mocking of the court—this contempt for law and order exhibited by the mob, the mob and influential of the population? The mob spirit is undoubtedly increasing, and unless resolution, it may be inspired by nothing of value to the ground.
THE MIRROR OF PUBLIC OPINION
AGITATION NOTICE BY WHITES
(Little Rock, Ark. Gavette)
Agitation among the Negroes during the past year has not gone unnoticed by Southern white men. This agitation makes heavier the work of Negro leaders in the South. The South needs the Negro, and wants the Negro, but if the Negro in all of what he knows of conditions in the North, desires to go North, the Southern white men will not stop him. The Negro who remains in the South is assured aid and friendship to white men so long as he conducts his citizenism. But when any Negro attempts to incite his fellows in the South to murder, arson or other crimes quick results will follow, and the man, either Negro or white, the man, either Negro or white, and tries to make himself believe otherwise is fooling himself.
TEBROR OF NEGRO RULE.
By Wm. Howard Taft.
This second objection is the one that there are more brown, black and yellow people in the world than there are whites; and that, as this is more of an nation, the nations, a league of nations, the nations, a more varigated Colored constituents than there are whites; and that in some way or another, which he does not explain, we are going to have the Negroes of South Africa will unite with the Negroes of Panama, and then the yellows, the four hundred million of India, with all unite, and then we are going to be made brown, black yellow, or come under that domination. It is not suggested how the conspiracy is to be formed, nor when formed how t is to work out under the provisions of the League. The assembly can elect new members, and elect a settlement, and it can advise as to the inconsistency between treaties and the obligations of the League. Now how, under that machinery, are those Colored gentlemen going to obtain the Negroes of Panama, and to support What is the object of such a speech? It is to stir up the Southern constituencies where sensitive on the subjected of Negro domination and have them vote their senators who will support the League, so that they may be induced to vote against it.
WHAT'S THE ANSWER
Dr. A. Wilberforce Williams, health editor of the Chicago Defender, just returned from France, remarked in an address at a banquet given in the Gardens, Chicago: "France has great need for thousands of our young men of training and ability. I do not advise all to go, but many of you should go, and there you will be hampered in the rise to success." Also, "hundreds of opportunities in South America and Mexico. I expect to shape up my business and go to South America." The King of Liberia tells us that there is need and opportunity for thousands and thousands in that fine little republic, and that is one of his missions in America, to get people of our group to embark on a journey to embark on colonies and nations calling for able men of our group to "Come over into Macedonia and help us." Assurances of freedom and justices are given. The major leaders of the North are saying: "We cannot do without the Colored men; with thousands of foreigners going back to their native land, the Colored worker is our only resort." Numerous delegations from the United States are arriving the North, using every possible ducement to get the Negro workmen to return South, for jummer camp, cottonfield trades and general usefulness. The Employment Bureau of Richmond, Va., as well as many other cities, is out to conduct out the S. O. S., or Negro helm.
It is plain to be seen that our group is the Most Important Economic Factor in the Industrial World Today. What is the answer to the question of how to learn to be selfish we go or stay? Is it better to bear these illus that we have, than to fly to those we know not of? We are put to the test, and the greatest care of judgment must be exerted in our operations, as well as our immediate "life" liberty and the pursuit of happiness," depends on the decisions now made. Whatever may be finally determined, will be for the purpose of the unhampered opportunity to grow to full manhood, and a feeling of security from the crowd and the mob.
"BUILD YE MORE
"Build Ye More Stately Mansions, O My Soul." These are days of genuine construction for our group. In the past, we have had a rid of unrest, the Negroes of America are "forgetting those things which are behind" and are building everywhere materially, with the highest spiritual sense of duty and responsibility. In Orleans, the St. Luke's Building in Richmond, the Foro College in St. Louis, the Whitewater Apartment Hotel, Washington; the Brown and Stevens buildings in New York, than one dozen magnificent Y. M. C. A. buildings in various cities; hundreds of fine churches; hundreds of excellent smaller business blocks and offices; and many equipped to the last word in luxury, sanitation and comfort, these are the beacon lights of a new day and a new era. Coaches with a great Department store; Atlanta with $500,000 hotel; Chicago with a million dollar Python building and wonderful prospective investments and constructive
plana reported from every section of the country, involving amounts from $5,000 to more than $1,000,000, give forcible and impressive answer to the question; Are We Downhearted? More power and more life to this new spirit of Unity of Purpose. Let us pool our humble dollars more and more, and rise to industrial and corporate levels. Let us concentrate efforts. Let us continue to make the way open for our own superintendents, managers, foremen, clerks, stenographers, and general employees. We have made the way open for our own superintendents in his luxures booted and laughed at us. He has received all our money and slammed the door of opportunity in our face. Now that we are on the way, let us continue to build, build! build!; and then build some more.
BACK TO DIXIE, A FORLORN
HOPE
were the plea of the "Back Dixie" leaders in these encouraging words: "The Negroes are welcome to remain in Chicago and throughout Illinois so long as they please so long as they abide by the law, and am opposed to driving them out," the leaders in Chicago We need as laborers in We need them. "The Poles, with whom the Negroes recently had the trouble at the stock yards, came to this country to benefit their condition; the Negroes came there they were forced to leave the South. We were protected. We had violence and anarchy in Chicago once before a few years ago, but order was restored after seven or eight of the ring-leaders were put out of the way. We were no necessity soon and there will be no necessity for the Negroes to go South."
We speak in language the white South will understand when we say her stalemate will have to change the tune of their plea before black men must not only quit to return. They must not only quit to pay ganda about Colored men to associate with white women, but they must offer in advance as guarantees of good faith punishment of their mob murderers, and they must not refuse to travel to people, railway and street travel to commodifications regulated by the class of passage and not by the color of laws, living wages, humane working do well to discount the enforced cringing Colored men and realize Colored men nothing less than an absolute square deal will suffice not only to win the emigrants back, but to hold those now there from emigrating. Many the God of Justice forgive the leaders and realize to Dixie' movement when they give vent to such blasphemy as this:
The people of the South understand the Negro thoroughly and there is a very erroneous impression entertained by some people of the North that we do not treat the Negro just down the Senator Harrison of Mississippi. "There is a difference between the races in Mississippi and the Negroes are given every opportunity for progress and to be happy and contented. There is no discrimination in the court, everybody is treated just like a white man.
"It is very true that there is a distinction between races there, and there always will be. The Negroes, in my opinion, desire it and are thoroughly satisfied with their treatment. The segregation of the races on the street cars, on railroads
and in residence districts works to the betterment of both races. The Negroes in the most illustrious Negro who ever left the South to go North and want to return because of the treatment of the Negroes in certain localities of the North will
"There are many communities in my own State which have sent representative white people North to bring the Negroes back and pay their工资."
"In my opinion the more people of the North see of the Negro the more they will appreciate the wisdom of the South in handling this race question."
Bad as it is for all concerned we bid the black men and women with their children of the South to untill the South disjoins herself from her hypocrisy and her idol of "socalled equality," until the South learns that the black people of the South Republic, but twelve million equal sovereign American citizens.

GULF STORM PLAYS HAVOC ON
TEXAS COAST.

citizens of Odem and members of the train crew, waded for mates and helped in bringing away the storm. The train is being held until other relief arrives.
Most of the survivors rescued at this point were from the north beach section of Corpus Christi and were up the Nueces river. Practically the entire country between Odem and Corpus Christ is a raging sea all Sunday night and every low point is still flooded with water. In addition to the storm, there were a lot of cattle and thousands of birds and other game were drowned or killed by the storm.
The first man rescued here following the storm was J. G. Griffith, 66, of Corpus Christi, and who fought for his life for nearly twenty-four hours before being rescued. During the heavy rain and as the waters were rising he had gone into a home on North Beach and was taken to the laddy to the second floor. While occupied at that task the waters rose four feet in as many minutes and the party consisting of three men and the lady took refuge on the second floor and saw the others drown while he was unable to help them. John S. Tannen, 18, ward of his uncle, Z. C. Taylor of North Beach, saw his mum and aunt carried off the boat and he went another. He was badly cut by timbers that struck him during the time he was in the water.

Nashville, Tenn., Sept. 20. The sum of $500,000 is in sight to be invested in initial equipment for the full-fledged theological seminary for Negroes in Nashville, provided the Negroes of this city will provide an adequate building site, so Dr. O. L. K. serves the secretary of a commission from the northern Baptist convention to establish an institution, told a mass-meeting of Negro Baptists of the city at the Shrine church Baptist church Sunday afternoon.

SOME MEN AND WOMEN OF THE INDUSTRIAL ARMY-THESE ARE MEASURED BY WHAT THEY DO AND NOT BY WHAT THEY SAY. THE MOUSE TRAP IN THE MOUNTAIN.
Mr. J. S. Helen, Hen. G. T. Smith, Mrs. Helen Marvell, Mr. Thomas Routh-High School Custodian.
By N. W. Harlee.
How shall we judge the merits of the individual, so what says or by what he does? If we judge him by what he does and with the skill and case by which he accomplished results, results, we would be compelled to include Mr. J. S. Brown, an efficient young man as belonging to this class of doers, for he is a man who does things. Mr. Brown is a member of the department of the great Baptist Hospital city, where the best of service must be rendered with care and even painstaking in every detail, and where the care required to be unit at all times.
Here service counts for much, alacrity, honesty, straight forward in every particular, all have a real meaning and must be balanced at all times and how much does it imply and what a force bound up in living energy. The real master of all is he who serves best. It is not what position we occupy as so much as what where we are but what we are; not what we are doing but what are we accomplishing. Shall the foot refuse to walk, because the hand occupies the body? Shall the ears receive perceptual information because they occupy the side of the face instead of the front as the eyes? Then it is not a question of what kind of work we are doing or what work we do that work. It is not the government state that can accomplish something that others must accomplish, and that thing which some one else must accomplish however trivial, is what the great statesman is assigned to do.
Our subject Mr. Brown seems to have caught this spirit when he was employed to direct the preparation of food for a hundred persons daily at this restaurant. The food must be prepared with the underlying principles of scientific hygiene, and with dispatch and systematization, he can readily see why some cooks, the waiters and cooks, colleges should receive a higher salary than the presidents of the colleges when we take into account connection with the vital environment in connection with the vital environment in connection with all concern from a physical point of view. When we were shown through great institutions and its various departments, it was arranged demotion as well as a pleasure to see how this young man, Mr. Brown could manipulate machinery, direct arrangements of everything with order and efficiency, convinced that every position is a position of humor and trust, and that it is just honorable to serve in order to carefully direct affairs there as a head of an army and direct affairs there for each is a leader in his own capacity, and that the success depends upon the success of the other.
We are pleased to note that Mr. Brown is also a worthy layman in his church, and what we have found as a general thing that the man who is a member of the same branch of the living God, and this should be an incentive to the careless youngster who thinks that out side of the church is the best place, and that he can succeed without its strong man. You are wrong there young man. Remember thy thoughts so are you.
We wish to speak of a worthy citizen also of our city, a fine specimen of what a man should be in his general demographics and in his general demographics, and in his man is no other than the Hon. G. T. Smith, who is no other than the Hon. G. T. Smith, who is a graduate of the Rushville High School of Rushville, Indiana. Dr. Smith is also a clever man, and he is a clever man verses containing some high inspirations capable of high didactic teaching and instructive a like in many ways. He is a high class church man and also served his church as a leader of twenty-seven years. He has the distinction of being the President of the Layman's Association of the Maceean and also that of the state. He is a man of great virtuosity and a man that works the general uplift of his people. Let us have some more Smiths and Brown, and we shall tell more about others the same lines, but it will take time.
Mrs. Hellen Maxwell is the one woman who has distinguished herself by raising in her profession to the highest capacity. She 'been as house girl waiting on the table and arranging the details of the domestic affairs, but brains are pluck and industry, but remains in that position, and tese these opened the door of 'better things in her face and she entered the face of usefulness and a beekeeper, and being the simple waitress, she became

Churches the directress and planner in the arrangements of the most refined guest in the selection and order of supplies and arranging menus of the latest diets of the seasons. Her skill in this respect has given her constant employment and by which she has been able to give employment to many other persons on this line of business. So much for tact and industry.
Neither is this all. Mrs. Maxwell has spent her hard earnings in the education of her niece, who has been deprise the day of little things? Do we not know that the man who makes a mouse trap in the mountains surrounded by crabs and peaks with the mice in the plains becomes the controllable that the house keepers will make a high way to his majesty, the trap maker, a smooth road over and bring away loads of trans.
Mr. Thomas Routh, known as Tom Routh, is another person who has a credit to his profession as custodian. He has served as director and custodian in this position for twenty-five years. He has served under him, including the one who enters upon his duties in the principalship this week. Mr. Routh has given general satisfaction or he could not have been retained in the twenty-five years. First of all this is a stable position, in several ways; the buildings must be kept in order, neatness, cleanliness, sanitary, and the care of the children. And all this has been done, and is still being done, since he along with other custodians have been re-elected and their wakes raised. And we wish to mention in connection with Mr. Routh and that is this, he has educated his children, and we may judge that he does for his children. Another thing this man Routh is that he has not forgotten his church, and neither has forgotten the injunction. First seek the Heaven and then all things shall be added to the tree.
WHAT IS MEANT BY NEGRO
TRADE WEEK.
Negro Trade Week is a week designated for an exclusive pull for Negro enterprises in which every race man, woman and child are pledged to work for Negro enterprises in part of their earnings with Negro chants. As a matter of facts it is a ginger-up week for the trade security that portion of the trade for the Colored business man what he only entitled to the whole year around. It will give an idea of the volume of business that can be controlled by the race. The movement is a concentration of efforts to check the influx of business from a concentration of efforts to check the influx of business from a contrary to the right channel. Unanchoring such a scheme as a Negro Trade Week, stock in the Negro trade market would ascend.

A pleture never to de forgotten ts the
kind of a picture that “Mickey” is, The
premier presentation of Mack Sen-
nett’s world famous play will be at the
Grand Central ‘Theatre,
“Mickey” 1s a combination of everything
that pletses the theatre patron, pathos,
humor, tense dramatic action, thrills, and
here and there a bit of slapstick farce for
relief, And all is so blended that it, runs
‘noothly and upholds the spectator’s tn-
terest to the last, The film ts making
history and breaking the records of all
theatres in every city in which it has
played and audiences and critics the world
over are proclaiming it the last word in
‘comedy pictures, Mabel Normand as the
star has never been seen to better advan-
tage, while Mack Sennett, the director has
shown his skill in doing the hardest thing
im the world—making people laugh. After
‘seeing “Mickey” they do it spontaneously,
when the situation that caused it is over
the audience notes that it was realistic and
not forced. Every human emotion, every
element of life, is shown and Mabel por-
traye them with genuine artsy and, ver,
utility. In ‘passing, “Mickey” is full of
fun and frolic, it sparkles with humor and
bubbles over, with laughter. ‘Those who
miss "Mickey" will do so at the risk of
missing one of the finest and cleanest
comedies that the screen has seen in
many months, ‘The Dramatic Mirror in &
recent criticlam says in part: ‘Mickey’
fs one of those rare comedies that meets
all the requirements in the way of pleasing
the most eritical of audiences.” And from
where the writer sits the Dramatic Mir
ror is right.
Manager Harris, after months of ne-
gotiation with the’ owners of this picture,
hhas finally succeeded in obtaining this ex-
traordinary attraction for the patrons of
the Grand Central ‘Theatre at the small
admission fee of 15 conta and 25 cents,
‘war tax included. Absolutely the first time
this pleture was ever shown at such a
‘nail admission fee.

THE GRAND FRATERNITY OF
TEXAS NOTABLE INSTITU-
TION—HON. H. D. WINN,
GRAND MASTER AND
TEACHER
Financial Membership Nine thousand
Eight Hundred Seventy Three—
Representing Four Hundred
and Fifty Lodges.
The Work Of the Fraternity—The
Masonic Temple—By N. W.
Harrille.
Among the agencies that count in the social, moral and civic uplift of the black people of the south and throughout the country, the secret fraternities may be counted as a source in which much good work is being accomplished, take the place of the church and the school, the secret orders and the strong men and women in their heads, perhaps, come third in the advancement as social center from which radiate that fellow feeling and racial help which we should be at a los for much mutual helpfulness in our forward trend.
Again, the center of the secret fraternities are the only institutions where we may gather and hold community meetings, the dogma of creeds, and where politics of detering appreciation, but where every one is free from his religious tenets and where his political opinion is not to be upright and require it to be upright and require supreme being. The black man takes naturally to organization, and this is one of the hopeful indications that he is destined to reach a high stage of organization. The civil society is held together by co-ordinating agencies of organizations. But to have organizations, there must be one worthy-to-have these fraternities, men and women of characters and ability. For this purpose the writer has taken the pains to look up the man who have stood out in this state and to seascan order in this state and to seascan out what each has accomplished.
The present Most Grand Worshipful Master, is the Hon. Henderson Darius Winn, a native Texan, a man of sterling intellect. He was being at the head of this great fraternity, but not lessened his love for the church, but on the contrary, when his craft honored him, he seemed to be a generation for the church and its cause.
Grand Master Winn received his preeminary education in this state, and with that caliber within him that called for the improvement, he attended the schools and schools of methods, and in them entered the schools as a teacher, where he strove to teach the Three R's for thirty-four year, spending his useful career in the school at Chapel Hill in the bank at Horn School He was the principal Chapel for thirty years, when he resigned to enter upon the work of the masonic fraternity as its Grand Master. It seems that destiny has secured that the leaders of our people must attend churches, in the schools and in the secret fraternities, and then up from these to the civic positions in the broader world of activity where greater measureurs are to be carried out because of the actions required both ability and force required on wisdom and fore thought
Grand Master Winn has been honored through service to the Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masonry, being elected its Grand Junior Warrior, being elected its Grand Master, and being elected to same position in 1902 and in 1903 was chosen Grand Lecturer, and the following year was selected as Deputy Grand Master, and he had the distinction of being chosen by acclamation each year but one till 1916. Mr. Winn on account of his distinguished position, the various positions which he filled in the craft, was elected Grand Master, and in this new position, it seems that all the members think that he is the man for the place, being a man of vigilant and having the great masseurry working for its good and the fare of its members. We are to expect results when such leaders as Mr. Winn are at the head of the order. We are ever looking for men who are qualified for the positions and measure of home life and their devotion to the home. We are sure of the leader, if we will take time to investigate his homie, and after all this is the place to measure any man, and if he measures up in this particular, other things being equal, he is the man mark him,
But Mr. Winn has been, leader elsewhere as well as in the leadership of fraternity of which he is the head, it has taken the time and money to educate his three daughters, Misses Irene, Eula, and Iola, all of whom are now teachers in theinary and at the Prairie View State Normal. These young ladies completed the regular literary courses and also the domestic Science and also domestic Art. Miss Irene succeeded her father as principal of the Sunday School and taught at Miss Iola Winn is the first student in the school. Miss Eula P. Winn taught in

the Sunny Side school, and has held the position as Primary teacher and musical director in the Chapel Hill High school. These three young ladies are the pride of the vicinity where they teach being devoted to the work assigned to their hands. These are the children of Mr. Winn's first wife who died several years ago. In 1907, Mr. Winn was married to Miss Roberta A. Hall who was also a zealous and conscientious teacher. She too was a teacher and was the order of Heroines for several years. For thirty odd years, Mr. Winn has been a consistent layman of the church and during that time, he has been a teacher of the General Conference six times, the last time he was elected in Dallas for 1920. He has served as a member of the General Board of Education for eight years, and has lived house along the high way of usefulness and has kept the light shining so that those who needed him might find him, and use him as one who
The Grand Lodge of F. & A. M. of Texas was organized August 1875 at Brenham with Hon. N. W. Cuney as first Grand Master, he was followed by the second Grand Master, became the fourth Grand Master, the fifth was Bishop A. Grant, he was succeeded by Hon. Charles Dean; Bishop Armstrong was next to take the Grand Master's gavel, who was succeeded by Hon. W. L. Kimbrough the gavel in the promotion of the craft; Rev. J. W. McKinney next took charge and served twenty years, he was succeeded by Hon. H. D. Winn, and who also served as chancellor for the Heriones for two years. There are 450 lodges, financial lodges with a membership of 9.873 financial members according to the report of 1619, while the same report shows that the board selected for all purposes was $32,600.
One of the prodd assets of the Grand Fraternity is the Masonic Temple at Fort Worth, valued at $125,000, completely paid for and out of all encumbrances, and stands as a monument for organization may accrue from the generous significant possession, the Grand Fraternity of Texas own and control 160 it is proposed to build and care for the widows and orphans.

Hon. H. D. Winn is a man.
RED CROSS ANNOUNCES $15,000
000 CARD PEACE
ACTIVITIES
Will Teach Women of Nation Home
Hygiene and Dietetics.
WASHINGTON, Sept.—Following the announcement of the Third Red Cross Roll call, to be held November 3 to 11, when the American people will be asked to renew their membership, the Red Cross will organize 4000 for the future work of the organization, an outline of the peace time program of the American Red Cross was given today. The most will be a nation-wide activity of the Red Cross for the public health and hand-in-hand with this crusade will go a vigorous campaign for the extension of the country's nursing resources; the broadening of Red Cross Home Service that in the war of 1939 was able to give it was able to give to the families of soldiers and sailors, to be of general usefulness where other social agencies are lacking; greatly increased Junior Red Cross facilities; the establishment of relief measures for the victims of the war in this country and overseas, and preparation to fulfil whatever duties may be laid upon it as the official volunteer relief society authorized to assist the Army and Navy.
The plan of the Red Cross public with other existing promotionTAOI with other existing health promotion and disease prevention organizations is to by itself where no other health agency now exists, in an effort to reduce the high mortality due to preventable disease and to improve genetics. Public health nursing will be one of the important features of this campaign. Red Cross public health nurses will be assigned to as many nurses as necessary extending to the rural population the bedside nursing, school inspection, classes in hygiene and home nursing and search for tuberculosis that has been so effective in the cities and larger towns.

G O P OPENS DOOR TO DISSAT- ISFIED DEMOCRATS.
Fort Worth, Sept., 18—Pleading for all Republicans to come forward and send their names and addresses, memorializing the Texas Republican Council, today issue a statement to all "republicans and near-republicans" in which it is pointed out that "when a government does not please the people" it must change. The statement says in part: "When we see Democrats of talent and learning who have made extraordinary progress in the affections of the people, we must the most accurate thinkers within the state and the nation assemble together and use their utmost ability to convince their fellow citizens of the Democratic party have thrust upon government, it is sufficient to make every thinking man tremble and merits the most thoughtful attentions."
attachment to the rights of mankind.
We submit for the consideration of those sentinels of liberty and happiness within the Democratic party as well as for the benefit of all thinking people, the observation of Alexandra McGregor, the observation of the lilies in representative government is a change in paris." Certainly no one would contend that the cure for poverty is another brand of poverty or that the cure for immorality is another debauch. There is only one way to overcome ourselves from the terrors of Democracy and that is to vote the republican ticket.
"We call all republicans to the colors and we also invite the cooperation of near-republicans. Our work is to help those who does not intend to vote the Democratic ticket. It is important that both republicans and near-republicans register with the Council; and join in an organized effort to place the republican power in power in Texas."
BRITIAN AFTER PERSIA.
Washington, Sept.-Senator Philander C. Knox, former Secretary of State, has proven, through the testimony of former Minister Charles W. Russell, that the peace treaty, is attempting to gobble up Persia and add that country to its dominion which now constitutes a third of the land surface and has been threatened with a fourth before the war. Russell appeared before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and presented a copy of a treaty between which the purpose of the former is to be called the Treaty of Persian vides for control of Persian financial and military matters by ostensible joint British and Persian commissions, but Senator Knox points out the facts of the British members will be financed.
"The treaty gives Great Britain absolute power over the sword and the purse of Persia," declared Rus-land, one hundred years Great Britain, with its own sword, siege, bedeviled and badgered Persia. It is time she were learning better manners. The Senate should make a written compact against the pact and should insist that the right of termination of Persia be maintained."
