Vol 6 Number 14 Father Tells Son To Be A Real Man Master Lofton Banks, 410 Bank street, has received this very enthusiastic and loving letter from his father, E. T. Banks: New York City, N. Y., Aug. 2. Mr. Lofton Banks. My Dear Boy—This is Friday and I am so filled with enthusiasm over yesterday's trip up the Hudson and hike out into the Catskill mountains that I must speak of that feature in my new experiences before anything else. "We boarded the boat at the Forty-second street wharf at 8:30 a. m. There were fully 700 of us in uniform and rabbit or trench caps. Major Burleigh of the regular army, was in command. Our vessel, the Henry Hudson, was a beautiful side-wheeler of about 3500 capacity. Our route lay directly up the Hudson for 50 miles, and every minute was replete with interest. "We passed the famous Pallisades on the Jersey side, and such beauty is almost unthinkable. The Helen E. T. Banks Gould home, the Rockefeller home, on the New York side; Sleepy Hollow, where Ichabod Craine took his ride, and the sight of the village home of Rip Van Winkle. Next we came to Treason Rock, where Major Andre was captured; then the Stony Point battle ground, then at the turn of the river a beautiful mountain, called Mad Anthony's nose, loomed in the distance; and Lofton, it looked just like some one's nose, and was named for General Wayne. A little further up the river we could see West Point and the Great Military academy that you and I have lectured about, but had never seen. This was piled higher and higher upon the beautiful terraces, from water side to mountain peak and over all the most wonderful chapel that one could imagine with mineret and spire reaching heavenward with such a stately grace as to make one think that here truly dwells the keeper of the souls of men. Landing, we marched through the campus grounds and then into the great gymnasium where we listened to the general in charge of the army and then we went to the chapel and listened to a musical on the great pipe organ. This organ is in a class of its own. The pipes are all over the church. Back of the chancel rail a group on each side of the church, a group and over the vestry a group. The player sitting in front played all over the church at the same time, then in the various parts of the church; then skipped here and there. How soft and sweet, how moderate, now thunderous, like the booms of hundreds of cannons; now far away as if angels were descending to the haunts of men with harps of gold, then silence and in the vast chapel with eight hundred men you could have heard a pin滴. Oh! how much we were bettered by having been there, and how loath to leave, but we must go. We left for an hour's hike over the reserve, embracing 64 square miles. And that march was well worth while—rocks, trees, vines, old forts, sunken roads, new trails and all of it policed by regular army colored men on horses. We came back to the academy at 5 o'clock and witnessed addresses, parade of cadets and embarked for New York at 6:30. I have been on other trips of which I will write you later, and now my dear boy, play the man while I am gone. Being a manly boy is a grace and comes only with prayer and trust in God. Care tenderly for mother and be considerate of the feelings of your own brothers and little sister as well as those of the others boys' sin- THE DAYTON FORUM Copyright Underwood & Co.

PRESS SERVICE OF THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR WESLEYAN METHODIST Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity. Such seemed to be the case in Wesleyan last Sunday. Prof. Jefferson delivered a very good educational address based fully upon Christianity at 11:00 a. m. Then at 3:00 p. m., Rev. Smith preached a wonderful sermon which carried the minds of the congregation heavenward and was followed by a few remarks from Rev. Day and Rev. Burton. The Zion choir sang beautifully and the Higgins sisters rendered one of their beautiful selections. At 8:00 p. m. Prof. Jefferson spoke to a full house on "A Trip from Jerusalem to Jericho." Then the final offering was lifted. The total amount raised and paid into bank was one thousand and thirty-three dollars and seventeen cents. Several members will report Sunday thus adding to the amount. We wish to extend our sincere thanks to the ministers and members of other churches, also well wishers for their assistance in our efforts for good, and above all, to the "One" that gives us life, light and sunshine every day. We are glad to say the rally was a grand success. September 9, Monday evening, the final business meeting for the conference year will be held at the church at 8 p. m. Let every auxiliary of the church have their report ready. Services this Sunday at the usual hour. This will be Rev. Bass's last Sunday before going to conference. This ends 23 consecutive years of service in Dayton. However, the members have called him for another year, hoping for his return. "Come thou with us, and we will do thee good." The minutes of the Sunday School convention will be read at Sunday School. All who wish to know what took place at the convention should be present. NEW HOPE SOUTHERN BAPTIST CHURCH Our pastor has won his way through the waves of the high billows and is now struggling to get over the top. Last week he hid himself behind the Holy Spirit and called for those who have the life of the Son. "And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life." I. John 2:12. A hearty welcome is extended all ministers and friends. Pray for the Holy Spirit to guide us. We raised $50.00 last Sunday. Won't you help? S. M. Dawson of Montgomery, Ala., better known as "Blind Dawson," will preach at our church Sunday night, September 6th. Don't fail to hear him. DAYTON, OHIO, FRIDAY SEPT. 6, 1918 THE YANKS IN BATTLE OF C The actual battle of Chateau Thierry, in move back the German hordes, is here g ordacq at his right, surrounded by the A n troops. Some day, we pray it may be soon While our hopes live in bloom, May the slaughter—the war—cease And the world be born anew—peace. II. May the love of a mother's heart Within the tumult, stormy—dark, Be spared; while victory won Return to mother, Oh son. III. If thine heart shall weep, Because in death your hero sleeps Rejoice! Humanity was his all, In the land of Memory, he'll call. IV. If silver tears stroll thy cheek While tarry'th his message—a time —a week, Look up to God, Who in Heaven dwells. That day in the bloom of the setting sun, When the slaughter of man is done, May the world have been born again, Bounded with peace, love and equality —Amen OHIO LEADS IN SALE OF WAR SAVINGS STAMPS COLUMBUS, O.—Ohio continues to lead all states in the aggregate sale of War Savings Stamps, the cash sales to September 1 amounting to a total of $60,000,000, according to the Ohio War Savings Committee. The campaign gains in impetus and the "roll up" during the last few days in August indicates that Ohio people who pledged to purchase are making good their promises to buy. Nine counties—Ashland, Morrow, Morgan, Knox, Highland, Seneca, Warren and Noble have exceeded their cash quotas of $20 per capita for the year and 35 more counties are on the road to the victory list within the next few weeks. Morrow leads with cash sales of $29 for every man, woman and child in the county. Ashland was the first to exceed its quota. Muskingum, Butler and Clark Counties have each absorbed more than $1,000,000 in War Savings Stamps. Lucas County is lagging in the campaign, having sold less than Montgomery County and $1,500,000 behind Franklin County. Cuyahoga, Hamilton, Franklin and Stark Counties have sold from $1,500,000 to more than $5,000,000. The sales in Richland, Athens, Licking and Columbiana Counties are nearing the $1,000,-000 mark. Recent activities in Youngstown and Akron are bringing these communities in line with the success in all parts of the State. Sixty-five counties have sold in excess of $10 per capita to September 1. The record in Ohio in aggregate sales, which exceeds that of either New York State, Pennsylvania, or Illinois—each with twice the population—is attracting the attention of the nation to the Buckeye State. CONSOLATION which the gallant American soldiers presented and shows Premier Clemen-American fighters of the battle, viewing PRESS SERVICE OF THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF COLORED PEOPLE New York, Aug. 26.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People makes public two telegrams, one of which was received from Governor R. L. Williams, of Oklahoma, in reply to a telegram of protest against the burning of a Negro settlement near Dewey in that State by a mob, and the second one sent to Governor Hugh M. Dorsey, of Georgia, protesting against the lynching of the twenty-sixth Negro in that State since the United States entered he war. In the former case, a mol from whom a Negro accused of killing a police officer and wounding another had been taken by officers of the law, set fire to and destroyed a colored settlement called "Little Africa," located near the town of Dewey (Oklahoma) near which the killing is supposed to have occurred. Governor Williams clearly states that the matter is being investigated and that the Grand Jury will convene on September 3 to consider the case His telegram follows: Telegram received. Matter investigated by proper agency. Grand jury will convene September 3d to consider matter. In the latter case, Governor Dorsey, of Georgia, was again appealed to in an effort to have him take some action towards suppressing the terrible orgy of lynchings that is disgracing his State. In numbers lynched and in cold-blooded brutality Georgia is leading the entire country in lynchings and her lead is so great that it appears to be safe from competition on the part of the other States. Yet in spite of these facts Georgia, so far as can be learned, has not done anything as yet to check these murders nor to apprehend the perpetrators. The telegram to the Governor of Georgia follows: August 26, 1918. Hon. Hugh M. Dorsey, Governor, Atlanta, Ga. Again it becomes the duty of National Association for Advancement of Colored People to ask that you use every power at your command to apprehend flouters of law and justice who on night of August 11 took Ike Radney, colored, from sheriff and two deputies and lynched him near Colquitt, Ga. Your State, through its record of having lynched twenty-six Negroes without trial since America entered the war is rapidly reaching a condition where its name and lynch law are instinctively linked together. Every mob murder is a direct body-blow at President Wilson, America and democracy. Is Georgia with our President and America in fighting mob violence? JOHN R. SHILLADY, National Association for Advancement Colored People. --- Interesting War Talk By Emmet J. Scott, at Mme. C. J. Walker's Home "Villa Lewaro" Irvington-on-the-Hudson In response to the invitation of Mme. C. J. Walker, nearly 100 white and colored men and women, leaders in their respective races, assembled on Sunday, the 25th instant, in her charming residence, "Villa Lewaro," situated in Irvington-on-the-Hudson, to meet the Honorable Emmet J. Scott, Special Assistant to the Secretary of War. Mme. Walker must have been inspired by some kind and thoughtful desire to give pleasure to her guests in calling them together in this delightful place, enriched by Nature and ornamented by the skilled hands of men. From the back of the villa one overlooks a lake in an Italian garden, beyond which stretches a most pleasing diversified rural scene, containing the Hudson river, flowing with majestic serenity, and the wooded heights of New Jersey in the far distance—a scene which, in many of its features, rivals the view from Richmond Hill, looking towards Twickenham, England. After an appetizing luncheon had been served on the villa's expensive veranda, the guests adjourned to the charmingly furnished and decorated great salon and listened to music made by several well-known artists: J. Rosamond Johnson, Professor Joseph Douglas, Mrs. Marie Johnson, Melville Charlton, Professor W. H. Butler and his clever children, Willie and Cecelia. Following the concert, J. Rosamond Johnson introduced Attorney F. B. Ransom, of Indianapolis, who introduced the hostess, Mme. Walker, to her guests. Mme. Walker, in outlining the purpose of the meeting, explained that she had invited those present not only to meet Mr. Emmet J. Scott, but to confer with him, and with each other, regarding the part American Negroes were playing in the war. Among other things said by Mme. Walker was that this was the time when members of the race should forget all their differences; stand together for the higher principles involved in this war, and that she hoped the present conference would tend to bring about these results. Moreover, Mme. Walker made a plea to those present to continue loyal to the country, also to the soldiers fighting for Democracy. After Mme. Walker finished and had been applauded, Mr. Ransom introduced Mr. Scott. Mr. Scott arose amidst much applause. He paid high tribute to Mme. Walker; then, reviewing his work while in office, told of some of the excellent things accomplished. Furthermore, he informed his hearers how local boards had been removed because they had treated Negro draftees unfairly; and how whenever unkind reflections had been cast upon the colored soldiers, the matter had been investigated and set right. Mr. Scott announced that the War Department had consented to reconsider the case of Col. Charles Young, who, in all probability, would be restored to actual service; nor did his statement that colored women be sent overseas, as Red Cross nurses, displease. Mr. Scott said many other things exceedingly pleasing to his hearers, for instance, how racial war work had been organized throughout the country; how a Board of Health is to be established to study sanitary conditions affecting colored soldiers; how, very possibly, a Negro War Correspondent would be sent to Europe to report the activities and achievements of colored soldiers. He hoped soon to announce the name of the man to be selected to do this work. Other speakers following Mr. Scott were: Col. Wm. Jay Schieffelin, the well-known philanthropist; William H. Lewis, ex-assistant U. S. Attorney-General; J. C. Napier, ex-registrar of the U. S. Treasury; Professor W. S. Scarborough, president of Wilberforce University; Frederick Moore, editor of "The New York Age"; Mrs. Mary Talbert, of Buffalo; James A. Cobb, of Washington; Thos. F. Taylor, Secretary of the Y. M.

BAREES AID TO RED CROSS MOVIE DOGS DO THEIR BIT Nell Shipman, Vitagraph star, who throughout the last five months has had constantly with her the five malamute dogs that play the one part in Barlee in "Baree, Son of Kazan," the Blue Ribbon feature, which will be seen in the Midget theater on Sunday faces the problem of what to do with the dogs, now that the picture is finished. These dogs worship Miss Shipman, and have done work for the screen that will create a standard for animals of the motion pictures that cannot be surpassed. Most of this work has been done under the direct instruction of Miss Shipman, who for weeks has prepared the dogs for their work, and trained them until her slightest word is their law while they snarl and snap at any one not sponsored by her. Baby Baree, a fluffy ball of fur, with beady brown eyes, and a great tendency to eating entirely too much and sleeping on the best chairs and carpets of the Shipman residence, is the best beloved, and will be kept by Miss Shipman herself to companion her Scotch Collie and Airedale, but the remaining four dogs cannot be returned to the kennels. There is no fund for actor-dogs, but there are many anxious to buy a Baree, and Miss Shipman's problem will be met by an auction, the proceeds to go to the Red Cross, and each of the four Barees to go to the highest bidder—in money, and affection for the dogs. Of Special Interest—A visit to the Midget Theater will be to your delight. Go to the movies, a delightful entertainment, a cool place to spend your spare time.

Shell, ohn King, G. F. Williams, D. J. Galloway, T. W. Wheeler, Correspondent, Sec. Walter F. White says in the September Crisis: The recent strong letter of President Wilson on lynching was undoubtedly called forth by representations from colored people following the lynchings in Brooks and Lowndes Counties, Ga., May 17 to 24. Hampton Smith, a white farmer, was killed, and newspaper dispatches report six persons as having been lynched for complicity. Investigation shows that at least eleven persons were killed. At the time she was lynched, Mary Turner was in her eighth month of pregnancy. The delicate state of her health, one month or less previous to delivery, may be imagined, but this fact had no effect on the tender feelings of the mob. Her ankles were tied together and she was hung to the tree, head downward. Gasoline and oil from automobiles were thrown on her clothing and while she writed in agony and the mob howled in glee, a match was applied and her clothes burned from her person. When this had been done and while she was yet alive, a knife, evidently one such as is used in splitting hogs, was taken and the woman's abdomen was cut open, the unborn babe falling from her womb to the ground. The infant, prematurely born, gave two feeble cries and then its head was crushed by a member of the mob with his heel. Hundreds of bullets were then fired into the body of the woman, now mercifully dead, and the work was over. C. W. Cordin left Monday morning for Baltimore, Md., to attend the Spanish-American War Veterans Encampment, going as a delegate from J. K. Henderson Post No. 90 of this city.

His text was the memorable words: "In remembrance of Me." The Lord's Supper is a Holy Communion; as well as a eucharistic feast—eucharistic because in that feast the heart is not only full of love for Christ, but it ought to be and should be in order that benefit be derived from the communication. It is really the highest spiritual act that Christians can engage—communion with God through the symbols of bread and wine, through or by the recommendation of Jesus, Christ. When we realize the wonderful beauty and high memory in this feast; when we see the fine spiritual excellence necessary to the enjoyment and soul-sustnance of this feast; whn we observe the great exaltation to which the spirit rises in this feast, we cannot but feel that a definite purpose was intended by Christ in giving it to His disciples. "This do and ye shall find yourselves able to understand better my former teaching." "This do' and ye shall be able to keep yourselves unspotted from the world. "This do' and ye shall see God face to face here on earth. "This do' and your power shall be always charged from the Divine fulness of Heaven. The evening service will be resumed on the 15th instant at 4:00 o'clock. Regular services Sunday next with Holy Communion at 7:00 a. m.

Subject for discussion last Sunday was "Knowledge essential to eternal life." The exhortation was designed to appeal to the reason of the audience rather than to its emotion. It was technical in that it was intended to refute the contention of those who hold hat Christianity is without foundation, thus trying to impede the progress of Christ's kingdom. Leading thoughts: "The line of communication between God and man is faith." Be mindful of the kind of religious training you get, and method employed by various writers." "Satisfy your conscience of your hope in Christ." "The soul through faith has come." "Religion of the heart first—then of the head." The picnic given on the suggestion of Miss Nellie Young, who was afterwards made chairman of the committee that arranged the all-day festival on Labor Day, for the equipping of the infant department of the Sunday School, scored a big success. Despite the fact that the county fair was going on hundreds of people attended this picnic on the Pease Street Playground and many remained all day, taking part in the various amusements, while others spent a real Labor Day in helping to make the picnic a success that this department might have some of the things that it so much needs. No one was seen earlier on the ground, nor remained longer, or who worked harder than Mrs. Morris and Miss Mattie Pearce, who are teachers in this department. They were the two happiest people on the committee when at 10 o'clock p. m. they learned that quite enough had been realized to get at least some of the things so J. D. FIELDS. ACTS AMAZE ITALIANS Yankee Flyers Credited With Great Heroism. Italian Army Headquarters.—The Italian commander under whose direction the American flyers are working on the Italian front has only one fault to find with them. They never want to remain on the ground. The exploits which brought five of the American airmen decorations cannot yet be published, but the value of their services may be judged from the fact that King Victor Emmanuel traveled to the section held by the Americans to make the presentation. A few days ago Lieut. Alexander C. Craig of New York, while flying over Austrian territory, was attacked by a chaser plane. By skillfully handling his own machine, after a few minutes of jockeying he put his adversary at a disadvantage and maneuvered his own gunner into such a position that a burst of machine gunfire shot the attacker dead and sent his plane to the ground in flames. Lleut. Harry L. Holtz of Burley, Idaho, showed he could combine great coolness in danger with a thorough understanding of Italian habits and customs. On his way back over the Austrian lines after a deep raid into enemy territory his plane was struck by a burst of shrapnel from anti-ali-crash guns. One fragment lodged in the body of Holtz's machine, another tore a hole in the right wing, while a third splintered one of the left-wing spars, at the same time cutting one of the alleron control cables to such an extent that a single strand of steel wire was left. Lleutenant Holtz calmly pointed out the break to the Italian mechanic accompanying him. The mechanic, without a moment's hesitation, climbed out and fought his way to the wing against a tremendous wind pressure. Then, lying flat on his face and bracing his feet against the strut, he grasped the damaged cable with one hand on each side of the break. Just when he was getting a grip on the last strand of the cable it parted and the value of his daring action was apparent. With the cable gone, the big airplane virtually was useless, but he coolly clung there, substituting his strength for it and enabling Lleutenant Holtz to bring the machine safely into Italian territory.

WILL EAT CHESTNUT LOAF French Medical Professor Urges Use of New Ingredient in Making Bread. Paris.—Doctor Labesse, professor in the medical school at Angers, urges the use of chestnuts in bread. Chestnuts, which used to be sold in profusion in the streets of Paris, have disappeared from the market, he points out, and says a considerable saving in potatoes and wheat could be effected by using them in bread, according to a recipe which was demonstrated before the Academy of Sciences as long ago as 1861. YANKEES QUAIL AT PINK RIBBONS Women Hero Worshipers "Plumb Flabbergast" Our Doughboys in Paris. MIGHTY POOR MATINEE IDOLS But Can They Fight? Oh, Boy, You Can't Stop Them—Ask the Major, He Knows—Also About the Marines. By RICHARD HENRY LITTLE, (Chicago Newspaper Man, Now in Y. M. C. A. Service on Atlantic.) New York—American soldiers are grand fighters but very poor matinee idols. When women spring from their seats in the sidewalk cafes in Paris and thrust flowers in their hands, they look as ashamed as a dog caught stealing eggs. The most awful suffering I saw in Paris was the case of a big husky from an infantry outfit. A lady of great distinction had stopped her machine in the middle of the street while the soldier was crossing, and, leaning out, had enthusiastically tied a bright pink ribbon around his neck. Amidst much rejoicing from the assembled French spectators the lady went her way and the big soldier looked as if he was just about to choke to death, although it was a very thin ribbon and loosely tied. I saw him an hour later and he still wore the ribbon and had turned deathly pale and was evidently in terrible pain. "Listen," said the infantry husky in a hoarse whisper, "the captain said we was to receive any compliments given us by the French with a smile and show 'em we appreciated it and not hurt their feelings by ditching it, but if I have to wear this pink ribbon around me neck for another hour I'll go nuts and bite myself in the leg. For the love of Mike do something." I removed the ribbon from the suffering soldier's neck and after a while he grew calm and quite rational and he told me some stories of the front regarding the first assault of the Americans against Chateau Thierry. "They can't hold us guys," he said, "when we git started we jest keep goin'. All anybody says is jest kill 'em, kill 'em, and O boy, you ought to see our lads go to it! "There at Chatty Teery the officers were making an awful holler about the boys running too fast and ducking right through the barrage and not paying attention to nothing except spearin' Boches. Our colonel came over before we started and he was much particular-like in pointing out a bunch of rocks where he wanted our battalion to halt. "The major said all right, that he would stop his four companies right on the line of them rocks, and then we started. We got it right in the nose, from every Dutch gun in front of us, but the boys jest yelled and laughed and away they went. Say, they didn't pay no more attention to the major when we came to them rocks than if he hadn't been there at all. "I went back to give him a message from my captain and he was standing by the rocks and up came the colonel and the colonel gave the major blinking hell for not stopping the battalion where he said, and the major was madder 'n a hornet, and he double damned the colonel right back again and he said: 'How the crucified dammation could I stop them crazy, wild-eyed sons of perdition? If that hog-faced crown prince and his whole damnety damn Dutch army couldn't stop 'em, what the h——could I do?" And Those Marines. I asked him if the marines were good fighters. "Good fighters?" the soldier said; "say, every time I see a marine I want to go up and give him a kiss. "If they ever get started again they will never stop till they get to Berlin. Now, you listen to me, I know, Say, do you know what I saw them marines do? "They had taken three trenches and was stopping in the third to fill their pockets with grenades and bombs before tackling the next trench that was chuck-full of Boches. The Dutch was using mustard gas and we was all wearing our masks. The grenades wuz passed around. "The marines filled their pockets and hung 'em on their belts and then they seemed to decide that they needed more for the job than what they had, so what did those crazy nuts do but whip off their gas masks and fill 'em up with grenades and then, carrying their masks like they was market baskets, up they jumped and down they comes on the Dutch in the next trench all spraddled out, and they bombed 'em till there wasn't nothing but jest grease spots left. "Oh, you marines, boys, my hat is certainly off to you." And likewise you infantry and you artillery. Smoky City Sees Snakes.
