Business Leag
Atlantic City, Aug. 24.—What is regarded as the most significant events of the year and an epocal one in the annals of the race is the Nineteenth Annual Session of the National Negro Business League, which met in this city this week beginning August 21 and ended Friday evening with one of the most notable social functions of the season among Afro-Americans. The outstanding features of the sessions were the addresses of welcome by Governor W. E. Edge, Mayor Bacharach, Dr. R. R. Moton and Hon. Emmett J. Scott, Special Assistant to the Secretary of War.
In delivering the welcome address on behalf of the State of New Jersey he spoke of the great progress made by the race in the face of the blind prejudice which confronts it. He said that the attaining of education first was the stepping stone to branch out and become a part of the business of the country. He gave a clear definition of democracy and said that it must be emphasized at home as well as abroad.
Continuing he said:
"We are talking democracy and writing about it but getting further and further away from it. We are going to understand one another better.
"This is the way it is going to be developed, as I see it. New Jersey is a great center of war activity, proud of her history and proud of her activic responsibilities. I hope then camps men who are Catholic, men who are Protestants, men who are Jews. We have among the troops white and colored and men of every nationality, now all Americans, of course. We have nearly every race thrown together and properly so.
They are going to be more tolerant of one another's viewpoint when they come home to talk up again their civic responsibilities. I hope then that this class prejudice will be eliminated for all times. (Prolonged appaluse and cheers). This will be a recompense for some of the sacrifices through which we are going. (Applause).
Governor Edge referred farther on to the work that has been done for the Negro in New Jersey. He spoke of the Colored Welfare League and other activities which seek to ameliorate the conditions of the colored citizens of the state.
"I feel," said the Governor, "that New Jersey, since she has been first in so many other forward movements, is going to be first, likewise, in giving you greater opportunities." (Applause).
The executive referred to various colored citizens who are striving to help their race throughout the country, particularly in New Jersey. He paid a special tribute to Attorney

Isaac Nutter, of this city, closing his reference with the words:
"Isaac Nutter is recognized from one end of the state to the other as a man you can trust."
Mayor Bacharach
Mayor Bacharach followed the Governor. After paying a high tribute to the Negro as a citizen he dwelt upon the men of color who readily responded to the present draft and also when a call for 20 or more men was made 90 or more always responded. His rendering of the poem entitled, "A Little Service Flag," moved many of the visitors to tears. His gift of the key of the city to the league was greeted with applause which lasted five minutes. President Napier in accepting the key said that since the organization of the league, in its annual sessions from city to city, Atlantic City leads, as this is the first key that has ever been presented to the National Negro League.
Dr. Moton's Response
With his native witticism and eloquent manner of reaching his audience, Dr. R. R. Moton, the "recognized leader of his race, ably responded to the welcome address of Gov. Edge and Mayor Bacharach." He singled out inspiring facts revealing the intense loyalty of his race and cited the thrilling events of the battle of Carrizal. He gave a plain interpretation of what democracy meant and asserted that the Negro was unswervingly loyal to his country and expected his contribution for the ultimate triumph of democracy to bring him the things that have been long deferred.
His masterly presentation of certain phases of the Negro's life and his constant devotion to his country despite his proscriptions and his inspiring optimism combined with his happy way of reaching his applauding audience demonstrated that he has the confidence of the leaders. Hon. J. C. Napier, president of the body, ably presided and was assisted by Charles Banks of Mount Bayou, Miss., and Chas. H. Brooks, of Philadelphia. His annual message was brim full of interesting facts and greatly inspired the vast audience.
The message brought by Captain Spingarn and eloquently accentuated by Dr. Roman, of Nashville, Tenn., who also elicited unstinted applause from the audience that filled Fitzgerald's Auditorium, in which most of the sessions were held, was one brought with facts of vital import to the race and nation.
It was clearly demonstrated at this session that the mantle of the illustrous Dr. Washington has fallen upon Dr. R. R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute. Every time that he spoke he was given the kind of ovation which showed that his leadership

Craig, of the Food Administration; T. M. Campbell, District Agent of the Extension Work in Alabama; Dr. J. W. E. Bowens, Prof. W. T. B. Williams, C. C. Spaulding, and a number of bishops and Major J.

Special Notice!

Third street, is one of the coziest little theaters in Ohio; it is modern in every respect, having rest rooms and toilets for men and women, drinking fountains, and one of the best ventilating systems that can be found. This theater has been closed for remodelling, and will be open on Sunday for the general public. R. C. Krapp, the manager, has been in the show business for several years and assures you that the best photo plays of the American screen will be shown. He also states that the theater will be run in an up-to-date manner, courtesy of employees, and patrons' comfort will be the slogan at all times.

The opening bill will be Harry Morey in the Golden Goal, a powerful drama of lower New York, in five reels; also showing the first episode of "Vengeance and the Woman," a typical Western serial.

Dear Folks: I arrived O. K. about 10:30 yesterday. I couldn't get William over the 'phone, but I met Mrs. Scott, a race war worker, and she offered to see me out to the camp. We went in a machine, and to the Y. M. C. A. hut. Mr. Frye is secretary there. Harry rushed upon me there and took me to the colored Y. M. C. A. hostess house. William had started to town and so I missed him. I waited on the porch until he returned, about 12:30. I am with Mrs Wm. Marshall, (nee, Lucretia Hart-sell). I will tell you more of this camp when I see you. Good bye, with love, from
DR. T. H. JACKSON TO SPEAK

Three attractive services have been planned in the interest of raising a fund sufficient to meet coal purchasing and other necessary trustee items for the winter. Such men as Dr. Jackson are seldom available, and hence a large attendance is anticipated.
Rev. Upthegrove has returned from his vacation, and will fill the pulpit morning and evening. Last Sunday Father Coleman preached at the morning services, while Rev. John W. Arnold delivered an excellent sermon in the evening. All will be made welcome at Euclid. Come and bring a friend.

is appreciated by the masses of the races and leaders of the race from every section of the country. Hon. Emmett J. Scott in beginning the symposium on 'Winning the War' made one of the best patriotic addresses that has been delivered in this city. Throughout his memorable address he reached his vast audience and aroused a kind of enthusiasm that is needed for the winning of the war.
Mr. Scott in his report called attention to the fact that in the first registration 737,626 negroes were registered out of a total of 9,586,508; that is to say 7.69 per cent of the total registration of June 5, 1917, was composed of negro registrants. The total number of colored men called by the Provost Marshal General's office up to and including July 15, 1918, was 227,541, while the total number called to August 8, 1918, was 311,308.
He spoke in detail on what the colored people of the country are doing to help win the war, mentioning, among other things that some forty colored chaplains are now serving in the National Army along with one thousand colored officers who have been commissioned as captains, first and second lieutenants in the United States Army and in the Medical Reserve Corps.
War for Liberty
In his address he said the Negro in the present war for liberty and worldwide democracy was proving to be a noble and inspiring figure. The recent exhibition of independent valor on the part of negroes in France served to bring anew to the people of this country and the world at large the worth of the negro as a factor in the productive and protective forces of the republic.
Two divisions of negro troops are now in France with eight combat regiments to be trained in various cantonments in the country. He called attention to the authorization by the War Department of the colored Red Cross Nurses and spoke of the opportunities that are being provided for the technical training of colored men in many institutions of learning.
His address was followed by Capt. Arthur Spingarn of the Surgeon General's Office; Dr. C. V. Romans, who has been employed to improve the health conditions among the Negro civilian population around cantonments and camps; also by Dr. George E. Haynes, Director of Negro Economics, Department of Labor; Dr. C. H. Tobias, one of the secretaries of Y. M. C. A. work among colored men; Dr. G. W. Cabaniss, Y. M. C. A. secretary.
The symposium discussion as to what negroes are doing to help win the war proved to be one of the interesting features of Thursday norm-

Lewis, grand director, Oxford, Ohio; Grand Medical Register Dr. Purcell Haynes, Toledo, Ohio; Grand Advocate T. J. Monroe, Cincinnati, Ohio; Grand Warden John Krug, Dayton, Ohio. Many other leading Odd Fellows from different parts of the state were also present.
The regular session of the State Grand Lodge was postponed this year on the account of war conditions, under which circumstances the Board will take care of all necessary matters. All officers made their usual reports and the books of the grand secretary and treasurer were audited by Past Grand Masters Z. R. Jackson of Springfield, and S. S. Cheeks of Oxford, and found in perfect condition. The reports showed the order to be in a flourishing condition with large increases along all lines.
Over 600 new members have been added to the order and six new lodges chartered this year. More than $2,000.00 was added to the Insurance fund, bringing our total balance to nearly $520,000.00. Forty-one death claims have been paid, amounting to nearly $12,000.00. Crystal Palace lodge of Dayton led in the number of new members with a total of 88 applications since the first of January. Mission City Lodge, also Dayton, had a substantial increase with 38 applications this year. The gains along all lines in Ohio this year are the largest for any year in the past 25 years, and very complimentary to the present Grand Master's unfiring efforts.
The meeting was addressed by Hon. Geo. W. Hays and T. J. Monroe, both of Cincinnati on the subject. "Good of the Order."

Sylvia Stuart's eyes, accustomed to the hard, gray city streets, roved with delight over the bright garden beds in her aunt's yard. Miss Eliza Stuart, familiarly known through Fairview as Miss 'Liza, white-haired and frail, was displaying her spring beauties to her niece, after six years' separation. Miss 'Liza was famous for her horticultural achievements.
Sylvia's glances noted the presence, one after another, of the blossoms which she had rejoiced in when, as a growing girl, she had wandered through her aunt's garden during her holidays.
"But, Aunt 'Liza!" Sylvia's face was rigid with amazement as she looked at an empty brown bed in a corner by the low white fence that separated the yard from Mrs. Patterson's, next door. "Where are your beautiful illies of the valley?"
"Over across," replied her aunt abruptly, and nodded to a bed of exquisite white blooms against a background of fresh green stalks that filled a corner of Mrs. Patterson's yard. There was a quiver of the muscles about her face which betoken the approach of tears. She turned abruptly and walked in the opposite direction from the snowy flower beds.
"Dear Aunt 'Liza,' Sylvia begged as she stepped swiftly to her aunt's side and slipped her arm through hers, "tell me what the matter is?"
Miss 'Liza motioned her to keep silence till they turned the corner of the garden path, when the little white cottage next door was out of sight. Then she stopped and dried her eyes with a corner of her spotless white apron, sniffed a little to assure herself that she was not crying, and replied:
"You remember how angry Jennie Patterson was because you wouldn't marry her Dick?" Sylvia nodded in silent reminiscence and her eyes remained fixed high on some unseen point far beyond. "Well, it was the next spring that some pest killed every one of my beautiful lilies—my beautiful posies," she interposed mournfully as if dreaming of the beauty of a lost child.
Sylvia exclaimed indignantly, "I call it pretty selfish and unfair of her not to give some of them back after you had been such good friends for a lifetime!"
"All the Pattersones are proud, Sylvia, and so are the Sturarts. Of course Jennie couldn't offer them, and of course I couldn't accept them if she did; but it does seem hard," she added wistfully as they mounted the porch steps.
The peaceful silence of the sweet spring night drew Sylvia out into the garden again later, where she leanned on the white fence, pondering the complicated problem. Years before a gate had been cut to facilitate passage between the two yards—an opening used only by the two old friends and the boy and girl lovers. Sylvia saw how the grass had grown up close around it and that the hinges were rusty. Plainly it had not been opened since the memorable quarrel. And there, just on the other side, gleamed the illy bed, beautiful and ghostly, like the spirit of the friendship that had vanished.
Sylvia drew a sharp breath. Those lilies didn't belong there. She turned swiftly and ran to the garden tool chest, where she procured a trowel. The damp turf beneath the gate yielded ungraciously before her vigorous push, and a harsh creak arose from the unwilling hinges. She paused, but only the rustle of leafy branches stirred the stillness of the brooding night. Silently she slipped over to the lily bed, scooped up half a dozen plants, and with a few hasty pads covered up the holes left by the extracted roots. She rose, triumphant from her impulsive venture, and found herself face to face with the tall figure of Dick Patterson.
"What—who—how—," she exclaimed in utter confusion, then stopped.
"Ive come to claim my own," he replied steadily. "Sylvia"—his voice was low and appealing—"I'm a man now—not the country boy you refused—and I love you more than ever before. Is it too late?"
She shook her head and looked up out of misty eyes. "I love you," she whispered, and stopped, for his arms embraced her. "But your mother, Dick!" she exclaimed a moment later. "My aunt!"
"Mother telegraphed you were here, and that I must come—" he began, but a voice overhead interrupted.
"You made a man of my Dick, Sylvia—I lauven't any quarrel with you now. And you take all those lilies to 'Liza, won't you?"
"Oh, Jennie," a voice whispered across from the opposite window, "how'd you happen to be here? Isn't it beautiful?"
"I heard the gate creak and I jumped out of bed quick as a flash."
"So did I," Miss 'Liza replied excitedly. "I've been listening for it six years."
"And I have, too. Sh-h—they're going back to your yard." A gray head issued from Mrs. Stuart's window.
"Oh, Sylvia; you've forgotten the lilies, you silly girl!" Sylvia's happy laugh rose as she gathered up the neglected blooms.
"And Dick!" Miss 'Liza's head emerged and her gentle voice called. "Don't close the gate!"
"Leave it to me, Aunt 'Liza!" his early reply came.

Our smoothly running, efficient office was in the grip of romance—youthful, exuberant, rose-colored romance—and it was most disconcerting. There was Virginia, quite the life and fun of the place (when the president's back was turned), leaving us to join her young husband, who had just been given a commission and was stationed somewhere on the coast.
Then there was Blanche Hodgkins, our capable and always dependable head bookkeeper, who was soon to follow Virginia's bridal footsteps. We had some wonderful lunch hours together. Blanche and L.
Ned Sullivan had passed in his resignation and was going to an aviation detachment down south somewhere and little Mae Clement told me in strictest confidence that they had lately become engaged.
Nell and Joe, who though really in love with each other, were always "falling out," had made up and life was like a sweet love song again for them.
Even our middle-aged collector, who was twice a widower, had signified his intentions of marrying his landlady.
Romance, romance everywhere! Put not a breath of it touched my life.
Here was I, Nora Monahan, first assistant to the president, around whom nearly everything had always revolved, outside the pale of it all!
Just then Mr. Maglone, the president of the firm, came out and stood by my desk.
"Much work, Miss Monahan?" he inquired with his usual brevity.
"Why, yes, I'm really swamped," I confessed.
Of course he had to come out at the precise minute when I wasn't occupying myself. That always happens to me. I might be working like a Trojan all morning and stop for just a second's hilarity—and get caught. The others, for instance, have all the fun they want when "the cat's away," and when he appears on the scene everything is serene and quiet. Of course I really don't care, but it gives one a wrong impression sometimes, you know. Anyway, I've always consoled myself that "confession is good for the soul," so I remarked very casually, "I've really a mountain of work ahead of me, but somehow I can't seem to concentrate today.
"No wonder," he said, half under his breath, "with all the excitement and pandemonium that's existing around here these last few days. I don't think I ever struck such a thoroughly romantic place in my life!"
I looked up rather in surprise. Mr. Maglone is usually very brief. He is one of the finest and keenest business men I have ever met, and he never mixes business with sociability, so I was even more astonished when he cried, glancing at the flowers on my desk, "Don't tell me that you are following in the wake of all the others. Has some gay Lothario sent you those?"
"Mercy, no!" I laughed. "Flowers are my one extravagance. Haven't you ever noticed? I have always at least one posy on my desk, even in the dead of winter."
"Sure they don't come from anybody else?"
"Of course not! I've wrapped myself up in my work so much that I've never had time to think of anyone—even if anyone had shown any interest, which they haven't."
"I'm glad of that," and he left me abruptly and went back to the private office.
"Selfish brute!" I cried to myself, although I have always held an admiration and respect for him, which has amounted almost to reverence. "He's afraid if I go he won't get anybody to plug as hard as I have for his paltry $18 per!"
But I was mistaken, for when I was putting away my ledger after the others had gone, he said to me quietly, almost gently, "Don't you ever grow weary of the perpetual grind of your work?"
"Oh, sometimes," I answered carelessly, jabbing my pin viciously into my hat.
"You seem so much of a home-body that I'm surprised somebody hasn't captured you long before this."
"Nobody has ever cared enough," I answered truthfully enough, as I thought, "and I never let it bother me."
"Somebody has cared very, very much," he said seriously, and then to my utter astonishment, there he was, telling me what a lonely life he led, despite his luxurious, exclusive clubs and how much he had always longed for a simple, unpretentious home with somebody who really cared.
And quite before I knew it I was telling him how utterly weary I was of bourding in the city and how often my thoughts had wandered back to our cozy little cottage in the country.
The very next Sunday we motored out into the country and found the most charming little place you ever could imagine—not at all pretentious, but homellike and cozy—with casement windows and gables and a trellis where rambler roses climb in the summer and where there is a really beautiful view from the dining room window. Of course I'm tremendously happy, but I can't help hoping that the young lady who takes my place will be very efficient and businesslike and not too putty.
