Friends of E. T. Banks, who won distinction as "the fighting secretary" while with troops in France, gave him a home-coming reception at Masonic Hall, West Third Street, Tuesday evening. This hall was filled to capacity, it being estimated that five hundred people attended, many being unable to gain entrance. When he ran out of chocolate and such things to give the boys on the fighting line, Banks picked up a gun and went with them after the enemy, and fought by the side of the men in the 368th Regiment. The reception was regarded as the largest ever held, and the audience gave him a big demonstration when he entered the hall. His address held the audience for a long time as he told them of the wonderful work of the Yankee fighters and what the people at home must do now. Before the reception, Brown's orchestra gave a concert, and several vocal duets were given by Loritts and Franklin, who responded to several encores. Secretary Banks has a fine collection of war relics which he displayed and explained at the meeting, the success of which was due to a committee composed of Zach Wilson, Hazey Lorritts, and Captain J. M. Butler, who introduced Banks. Many white people attended the meeting. Sergeant Garfield Jones, recently returned, was present and welcomed home by his friends. Although Mr. Banks spoke one hour and forty-five minutes, he was unable to finish the lecture; thus many who heard him are planning to hear him again next Tuesday night at the Central Y. M. C. A. when all citizens will unite in giving him another rousing reception. ST. PAUL A. M. E.

C., Feb. 20, 1919.—An informal conference of welfare organizations touching the life of Negro workers and for the improvement of their condition, opportunities, and relations with white workers and employers, has just closed after remarkable meetings Monday and Tuesday of this week held in the auditorium of the Public Library at Washington, D. C. Representatives were present from mission boards, welfare agencies and associations, of national scope, which have as their object the cooperation of Negro wage earners, white workers and white employers, and the improvement of conditions and opportunities of Negro workmen. The fresst discussion of Negro economic problems resulted. Addresses were made by the Secretary of Labor, the assistant secretary, the solicitor, and other officials of the Department. In welcoming the conference, the secretary said, "It is the duty of the Department of Labor to promote the welfare of wage-workers and to advance their opportunities for profitable employment, whether men or women or children and whether they are white or colored, native-born or alien residents." Special plans for improving economic opportunities and improving race cooperation were recommended. A full account of the meeting will be published next week. WESLEYAN METHODIST The services last Sunday were of such character as long to be remembered. Rev. Bass delivered an excellent sermon from the text, "Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for the that love Him." After the sermon nineteen members of the church were consecrated, others were taken into the church. The revival has been carried on for the past four weeks and will continue over Sunday, when it will be announced if the meetings will continue or come to a close. The invitation is to all to be present to both morning and evening services. The Sabbath school is for the young and old.

Biggs Close Second Dayton has had many campaigns and membership drives during the last eighteen months, but none that has created more interest or closed with more gratifying and far-reaching results than the Fifth Street Branch Y. W. C. A. membership drive which began February 17 and ended on the 24th. The campaign was started to procure five hundred new members, but when the final count was made, 851 new names had been added, and $828.25 collected. The campaign committee was divided into fourteen teams under the management of Mrs. George Ellis, who was ably assisted by Miss Ruth Jackson, the secretary of the branch. Each team consisted of a captain and five lieutenants, who were requested to bring in ten members each. The wonderful success of the campaign was due largely to the splendid leadership of Mrs. Ellis, the wise selection of captains, as well as to the completeness of the organization for the drive, and above all the hard, assiduous work of each captain and the lieutenants. The standing of the teams was as follows: "Wide Awake," 192; Mrs. Garfield Jones, captain; Mrs. Stella Williams, Mrs. Allen Jones, Miss Mattie Bennett, Mrs. Lula Clay, Mrs. Z. Jones, lieutenants. "Live Wire," 161; Mrs. Adolphus L. Biggs, captain; Mrs. L. Johnson, Mrs. E. Taylor, Miss Nellie Young, Miss Estella Turner, Mrs. Mary Kemp, lieutenants.

Ellis, chairman of the membership committee, are very grateful to each and every woman who in any way assisted in bringing the drive to such a successful close. This campaign surpasses anything of its kind accomplished by the colored citizens of Dayton in recent years, and the good women are to be congratulated for the splendid example shown to the public of our ability to do things. It shows that even in Dayton we may accomplish something through organization, unity, harmony, and intelligent leadership. The Young Women's Christian Association has been a blessing to girls and young women wherever established. No group of citizens needs such an institution more than our race. The $ ^{*} $ Fifth Strtet branch is making progress along general association work, and its influence is being felt throughout the city. Classes and other instructive and interesting features are being added which will bring into full swing the most excellent program that has been planned for the year. The selection of Miss Ruth Jackson as secretary was indeed a happy one. She has been thoroughly trained and is splendidly fitted for the position, having the rare power of instilling her enthusiastic love of the work into all with whom she comes in contact. Miss Jackson is the daughter of Dr. and Mrs. J. S. Jackson of Cleveland. Dr. Jackson is the man who put system in church finances, and his plan is used by all the leading A. M. E. churches throughout the country. Miss Ruth is indeed a "chip off the old block," and Dayton is pleased to have her at the head of this institution. CARD OF THANKS We desire to express our thanks to all of our relatives, neighbors, and friends for the sympathy and kindness shown us during the illness and death of our beloved daughter, little Elvina; and also for the beautiful floral designs, Rev. Anderson for his consoling words, and Mr. Loritts for his efficient service—Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Burns and Grandmother. MRS. EFFIE HART GETS DIVORCE In the divorce proceedings of Frank Hart against Effie Hart, Judge Pat-larson signed a decree Friday dismissing the husband's petition and awarding the wife a divorce and $500 alimony on her cross-petition. The allowance of alimony was made a lien on city real estate of the parties. 100 FIFTH STREET BRANCH Y. W. C. A. NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FILES PROTEST AGAINST UNJUST DISCRIMINATION New York, Feb. 21, 1919. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, through its secretary, John R. Shilliday, of New York, makes public a letter to Secretary of War Newton D. Baker protesting against a memorandum issued by command of Brigadier-General] Nicholson on February 14 at Camp Upten to the commanding officer of various colored units now at that camp, directing the commanding officers to instruct their men and their families not to use any hostess house in the camp except the one set aside for colored soldiers at Second Avenue and Thirteenth Street. The Association entered its protest and its request for action by the War Department for two reasons which it puts forth. First, because the one house provided for colored troops is totally inadequate to serve all of the colored troops at the camp at this time, particularly in view of the fact that the entire 92d Division is either in America or on its way here, together with other colored units. Second, the Association declares that a more inopportune time to issue such an order could hardly have been chosen, in view of the fact that these same men who are barred from the hostess houses of the camp air those who have just returned from France where they fought for democracy, many of them being wounded and many of them having seen their comrades killed; and that such an order is not only an insult but a repudiation of the principle of democracy for which they fought. The Association asks that Secretary Baker, as head of the War Department, take action immediately to correct this mistake. The 'letter to Secretary Baker, sent by the Association, follows: "Feb. 20, 1919. 'Hon. Newton D. Baker,' "LET'S GO" To Central Y. M. C. A.

THE HOUSE Advancement of Colored People respectfully but emphatically protests against the terms of a memorandum issued on February 14 at Camp Upton by the command of Brigadier-General Nicholson to the commanding officers of the 368th, 369th, 370th, 371st, and 372d Infantry and to the 854th Motor Transport Corps, all of these being colored units. "This memorandum states that 'the hostess house at Second Avenue and Thirteenth Street is intended primarily for colored troops and it is highly desired that they use this hostess house exclusively, unless their numbers are so great that this particular house will not accommodate them. The official in charge of other hostess houses reports that the colored soldiers are crowding out the white soldiers and for obvious reasons this is not desirable.' This memorandum further states that it 'is not considered necessary or even desirable to issue an order requiring colored soldiers to use the hostess house at Second Avenue and Thirteenth Street.' Paragraph 3 states that the memorandum 'applies particularly to Sunda when, in all probability, large numbers of white women will bt in camp and it is not desirable to have them served or accommodated in the same hostess houses with the families of colored soldiers.' "It is our definite information that there is only one hostess house at Camp Upton manned by colored W. W. C. A. workers, and that the accommodations provided for the 92d Division and other colored units are totally inadequate. "Probably no more inopportune and inappropriate time could have been chosen for issuing such instructions, when thousands of colored soldiers are returning to America after having made a record in France surpassed by none. We are certain that you can enter into the feelings of these men who, many of them wounded, having left numbers of their comrades beneath the soil of France, find themselves subjected to such discriminatory treatment.

MARGARET'S NEWS Rev. Father J. N. Samuels-Belboder, Vicar. Sunday last was a happy day that fixed the choice of twelve young people on their Savior and their God at St. Margaret's. Their confirmation was as solemn as human hearts can make. Their entire demeanor showed them to be a band of people whose hearts God had touched. The service was so ordered as to end in the joyful vocal hymn of trust and acceptance. The recessional described the spiritual eternities that await the faithful, calling upon the legions of mankind to buckle on the armor of Christ for the warfare against sin. The Creed was the sacramentum of the Christian soldier. The prayers besought the Father to make men strong to win. The hymn before the sermon was a fervent invocation of the Holy Spirit in behalf of those about to start in the warfare. The sermon told what the warfare is, who may join the army, who their Captain, what in time the reward to all who fight loyally and faithfully. The hymn following was a prayer to Jesus to be with them all "in the hour of trial, lest, by base denial, I depart from Thee." The beautiful words and the magic music of this hymn melted the hearts of all. It filled the little church with a volume peculiarly charged with the mystic power and presence of the Holy Spirit. It brought tears of remembrance to all eyes. Conscience, helped by memory, condemned the will before the bar of God, but the soul was singing for forgiveness and new strength with Jesus Christ as its Advocate, standing beside it. Then came the central act—the Confirmation; and the good bishop's godly admonition. It was followed by the old English anthem, composed by an organist of Westminster Abbey, London, and sung by the choir with the solo parts by Master Edward Parsons. His youthful voice was rich and strong and clear. His whole attitude was reverent. He understood and felt the meaning: "Turn thy face from my sins, and blot out all my misdeeds. Make me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from thy presence, and take not thy Holy Spirit from me." The bishop then prayed for the vicar and his people and blessed the congregation, who, with the choir, sang in trustful acceptance, "He Leadeth Me." The church was chowded to overflowing. It is abundantly proved by the Holy Scriptures that confirmation or laying on of hands by the apostles has always been one of the chief notes and customs of the ancient church; and this order has continued to this day, thus linking the present church to the church of the immediate apostles of Jesus Christ Himself. Today, the bishop fills the place and performs the holy duty of the apostle. See Acts 8:14-17; I. and II. Timothy. Trace "laying on of hands" in marginal Bible for other passages. Baptism prepares one for the receiving of the Holy Spirit through the laying on of hands, or confirmation, according to the Scriptures. A great number of people are taught to believe that only a good person should "join," as they term it, the church. They have heard this from the lips of "preachers" so often that they believe it, and will fight to defend their belief in it. They have also been taught that no person is truly converted who has not been "converted" in a "revival meeting" or "church" service, in the presence of others; and who has not showed visible physical evidences in that "conversion." To these people, to say that you never had such experiences as the "preachers" say they must have, is to say that you are not converted and that you are a sinner damned. They take no notice of Christ's words that a man changes spiritually—he knows not how, he only knows that he is changed. He is born from above—"another." In the first place, these good-meaning folk have been deceived from the first, and their ministers either refuse to enlighten them, or themselves know no better. For (a) as to whether only the good should "join" the church, if we wait for that, none of us would ever get into a church; for Christ Himself says, "There is none good but One, even God," and He refused to be called "good master." He also told it plainly, "I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners"—"You righteous folk do not need me, sinners do, and to them I go." Today the church, the true church, says the same thing to the unfortunate in life's morals and life's struggles. Come and receive the comfort and sympathy of the church's Savior. Do not wait to be good. Only acknowledge Jesus as your Example, and decide to follow Him. Do not listen to any old witch's fable about conversion. The best conversion is of gradual growth. It is not a three-week plant. It comes like the oak from a seed—growing slowly but gaining strength each hour, and in time no storm can bend it nor break it. It is almost everlasting. (b) And why call those "sinners" who are not members of some church? Because you say you are a Christian, does that keep you from sinning? And if you sin, are you not thereby a sinner? How, then, you being a sinner, can you be so bold, or foolish, or both, as to call another a sinner? Do you say you are a sinner saved by grace? So, maybe, is the other person. How do you know you is not saved? (c) Merely "joining" a church or "confessing" Christ, will never save any one. Some "confess" or "join" under such a stimulus as only horrid fear can make them do. They fear, hence they "join" and "confess." Christ wants none of such. He wants "joining" and "confessing" that is each stimulated by love for Him and His truth, and not by the fear of hellfire. Where the element of fear compels worship, there the element of base slavery enters. I speak not of fear which means reverence, but fear which is akin to the terror awakened by most revivalists. St. Margaret's Church is always open and ready to welcome and receive sinners. In that church the vicar, like every member there, is sinner; the bishop is a sinner; praying daily to God to forgive us each our sins. We plead the mercy of God through Jesus Christ. We invoke the Holy Spirit's grace. We feel the divine help daily, and we wish to share it with other sinners as we are. We invite all those who will to come with us. "Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as wool; thought they be red as crimson, they shall be as white as snow." God will turn His face from your sins; your misdeeds will be blotted out. A clean heart will be made for you, and a right spirit will be renewed within you. Only come. The vicar will not hold the service demobilizing the service flag of the church, as announced last Sunday, until all the men of St. Margaret's have returned from overseas. Quinquagesima Sunday, next. The subject of the day, "Clrurity," from the great poem of St. Paul, Next Wednesday will be Ash Wednesday, or the first day in Lent. There will be a celebration of the Holy Communion on Sunday, at 11:00 a.m., following the Sunday school at 10:00; also evensong at 4:00 p.m. The services on Ash Wednesday will be a celebration of the Holy Communion at 9:00 o'clock, and a penitential service at 8:15 p.m., in which the Litany will be sung. "Perpare ye the way of Jehovah, make His paths straight." St. Margaret's is your church, if you wish it. We need you. You need us badly. Come, see, think, ask, Abide with us.

Address WOODWORTH COMPANY, Wilton, Conn. Plumbing Co. ly Colored Plumbers and Gas Fitting Prompt Attention DAYTON, OHIO --- (Copyright, 1918, by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) The long, gray racer tore up the avenue and with a grinding of brakes came to a sudden stop before the Crawford's summer home. Dick Crawford sprang over the wheel, ran up the steps two at a time, and rang the bell impatiently. James, butler, answered the ring, and stood erect and imposing, awaiting orders. When he saw who it was, however, he unbent, and even smiled, as he said, "Sure, it's Dick. Welcome home, sir. Welcome to Hillscroft again." Dick laughed a boyish laugh and said heartily, as he clapped the astonished butter on the back, "Well, Jimmy, old scout, how are you?" The butler, after his first outburst, was his old calm, important self again. "Mr. Crawford left a note for you, Dick, to be delivered immediately you cane," he said, respectfully, handing Dick a hastily written note, in his father's familiar abrupt style. "Dan Joyce's little girl, Peggy," he read, "is coming to spend the summer with us. Joyce was my partner, you know, but died about six weeks ago. Poor child, left all alone. Mother at club, so cannot meet us. Will come on 2:10 train. Bring doll to meet us." Dick glanced at his watch. "Good Lord," he cried, "15 minutes to make it in." Leaving the astonished James to pick up his bags he dashed down the walk and soon the car was lost in a cloud of dust. He brought the car to a sudden stop in front of Compton's toy shop and ran in. "I want a doll," he said abruptly to the clerk, "the prettiest one you have." In three minutes Dick Crawford ran out of the toy shop with a flaxen-haired doll held recklessly under one arm. "Poor girl," said Dick to himself softly. "It must be mighty tough to be alone in the world." Then to the doll who lay in the seat opposite, "We'll make her happy, won't we?" As he came in sight of the depot he heard the train's shrill whistle and putting on more power he covered the distance just as the train rolled in. Out he sprang and rushed forward. Soon he saw his father's portly form in the doorway and with a glad cry he sprang toward him. "Hello dad, I got her, and she's a beaut," he cried excitedly, as he pushed the flaxen-hunted vision in pink into his father's arms. "What in the name of common sense?" said his father slowly, as he held the doll gingerly by one arm. "What does this mean?" Then as a tall girl with sad, dark eyes and wavy yellow hair looked around his shoulder he said suddenly, "Peggy, dear, this is my son Dick." The girl gazed at Dick, then at the doll. The red lips smiled and a glorious dimple made its appearance. Then Dick and his father suddenly heard a low ripping laugh. "I'm not really very small," she said, "but I do love dolls," and, reaching out her arms, she took the doll from Mr. Crawford's arms. It broke the strain for Dick, although he still felt mighty foolish. "But you said you were bringing a child," he said, turning to his father, "and I know you said bring doll," he added reproachfully. A wave of comprehension broke over his father, and he laughed suddenly. "Has three years of college life and racers made you forget that we have a docile family horse at Hillscroft named Doll? Did you think for a minute I'd ride in your foot racer? You can break your neck, but I'll walk, if you don't mind." So Dick and Peggy rode to Hillscroft alone, with the doll tightly clasped in Peggy's arms. The summer sped swiftly by, and autumn saw a pretty wedding take place at Hillscroft. Dick and Peggy had skillfully eluded their pursuers and were driving down the river drive when Peggy said suddenly, "Oh, Dicky, dear, I'm so sorry, but we are going to have some one with us on our honeymoon. Will you mind so awfully much?" Dick brought the car to a sudden halt. "Who? he asked tersely. With a laugh that was more a sob Peggy bent over the seat and pulled out a flaxen-haired, rumped doll, and hugging it to her she said breathlessly. "Dicky, she brought me my first happiness after I'd been blue and home-stick for over a month, and I just couldn't leave her behind, could I?" "Poor little child," Dick said softly, as his arms closed round her, "of course, not." Germany's Treachery At 7 p. m. on August 2, 1914, Herr von Buelow delivered Germany's ultimatum to Belgium, which was in effect an announcement of Germany's intention to violate Belgium's neutrality forcibly if necessary. Belgium's resolve to uphold her own neutrality was given to the German ambassador within 24 hours. Germany, however, had not waited for a response, but had already invaded Belgian soil at Vise. Surprised. "Good afternoon, Sergeant Haggerty." No, the lady speaking wasn't greeting the guardhouse monarch. She was telling him good-bye in her best style English, while Haggerty looked on with eyes as big as mess caps. It seems that the sergeant forget that some French demoiselles have, by this time, mastered the "Onglay" lingo and his explanation to her had not made a Mit-Flame News.

ZION BAPTIST NOTES Zion missed you who went to Springfield and Columbus to see our soldier-heroes last Sunday, both at our Sunday school and church services. All of us could not go as we would like to have done, because some of us had to stay at home to "keep the home fires burning." The pastor's subject at the morning service was "Prejudgment," drawing a lesson from the prejudgment of Christ by his enemies resulting in his subsequent betrayal, arrest, and crucifixion. He showed how prejudice was one of the menest slave-masters known to mankind. It was blind, deaf, hypocritical, and merciless, and never relented. The application was closed by showing how plans and plots based PETE DIDN T KNOW WHETHER HANK WAS INSINUATING OR NOT on prejudice, as in case of Christ, might carry; but would ultimately result in the downfall of the prejudiced plotters. The subject at night was, the blind man's prayer, "Lord, that I might receive my sight." The need of relief from blindness of any kind, spiritual blindness especially, and the happy consequences to follow, were forcibly illustrated. Baptism will be administered at the close of the service next Sunday morning. We are expecting a full attendance. The public is invited and expected to throng Zion on March 10, 1919, to hear the gifted pianist, Blind Boone, who will appear under the auspices of the B. Y. P. U. The choir is getting on a firm basis again, and is giving us some splendid music for our services these days. With our new song-books plentiful, too, now the congregational singing is much improved and adds much to our services. Our Sunday school is beginning to take on a more busy and everybody-work-together spirit. It is felt that we should grow older, we should grow stronger and do more numerically, financially, and spiritually. What can you do to help make our Sunday school more effective along these lines? Come out Sunday morning and let us know. You are expected at all services. FOR RENT — Two unfurnished rooms for man and wife. Call at 250 Homestead avenue after 8 p. m. Nature's Greatest REMEDY J. H.
