NATIONAL BUSINESS LEAGUE
Tusdegee, Ala., June 24.—With the approach of the time for the annual meeting of the National Negro Business League which is to be held in St. Louis, Mo., August 13, 14, and 15, plans are shaping up very rapidly for the program, which, as Mr. Emmett J. Scott, the secretary, says, will follow the general idea of reconstruction. It is also significant that Mr. William D'Arcy, president of the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World, has agreed to deliver an address during he league's meeting. Mr. D'Arcy is one of the foremost figures in the advertising world, and his message will serve as an inspiration and an encouragement to the league's delegates. Mr. Allen W. Clarge, secretary
KS FOR MMISSIONER
of the National Clean-up and Paint-up Bureau, who has co-operated with the league during the last three years in encouraging the Health Week campaign, will also deliver one of the addresses. Mr. Clarke gave the three silver cups which were awarded in 1917 for he best Health Week campaign, and he will present the cups this year himself.
President A. E. Malone and Secretary H. A. Smith, of the St. Louis Local Negro Business League, report that they have never seen such a spirit of enthusiasm and co-operation as is manifested on the part of the St. Louis citizens over the approaching league's meeting.
ADAMS CAMPAIGN
Dr. R. H. Adams, the noted evangelist of Kansas City, conducted a religious campaign of three weeks in our city. The services were held at the St. Paul A. M. E. church. He was supported by a union choir from the Baptist and Methodist churches, as well as the city pastors. The sermons and addresses delivered have left a world of good to our city. All classes, colored and white, received inspiration for greater service for the Master from this God-sent man. Dr. Adams is a ripe scholar and presents the truth without fear or favor. He is an able thinker and never lacks for words with which to express his beautiful thoughts.
Seventy-four persons were converted and reclaimed during the meeting. The sum of two hundred dollars was given as a free will offering to the evangelist.
It was a great campaign and could not be otherwise as a prepared man qualified with a commission from God and a liberal education was here for the work.
Dr. Adam can always find a warm welcome in Urbana.
Mayor Geo. Talbot, with a number of representative white citizens, were regular attendants and commended the work of Dr. Adams in the highest manner.-The Informer.
DREAMLAND CAFETERIA
Messrs. David Jones and Jas. Towles have supplied a long-felt want in opening up the Dreamland cafeteria at 439 W. Fifth street.

663 TEACHERS ENROLLED AT
10TH ANNUAL NUMMER SCHOOL
AT TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE
Tuskegee, Ala., June 24.—Five hundred and thirty-nine teachers from fourteen states enrolled at Tuskegee Institute for the opening of the tenth annual summer school. This enrollment is unprecedented and shows how the teachers in the rural communities in the South are striving to strengthen themselves for the work and the heavier responsibilities which have ode to them by reason of reconstruction and the readjustment of conditions which grew out of the war. The enrollment to date is 578. At eleven o'clock Monday morning, the opening day of the session, Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal, addressed words of welcome to the teachers. Among other things, he said:
"Teachers as a rule make great sacrifices. You do it because you appreciate the importance of the service you are rendering to the race and to the nation. It is both inspiring and fascinating to take a child and watch his growth during the months and years of his school life as he develops into young manhood. There is nothing that equals it in interest and mutual helpfulness. There is no amount of money that can compensate for the services rendered in the development of character—the effect of your life upon the boys and girls if you are teaching Therefore I do not yield—even to the preachers, for whom I have the highest respect—in comparing their sacrifices with those if the average school teacher."
Other speakers for the week were: Dr. Geo. D. Goddard, rural school agent for the State of Georgia; Mr. C. J. Calloway, director of the Extension department, Tuskegee Institute, which directs the work of the Rosenwald rural school building; W. W. B. RiRley, superintendent of education, Macon county, Alabama; Dr. H. O. Sargent, of the Federal Board of Vocational Education.
Mr. Ezra C. Roberts, director of the Academic department and summer school, commenting upon the enrollment, said: "Of the six hundred teachers now on the grounds, 235 are teachers in Rosenwald schools, and they have come for special training which we have arranged for them. Through the generosity of the general education board, the teachers in the Rosenwald schools have had their railroad fare paid to Tuskegee in order that they might have this special training which is designed to establish certain definite standards in so far as industrial work is concerned."
In addition to the regular summer school course, special instruction in thrift and Red Cross first aid are being given.

Zion congregations are being affected by the usual summer vacation exodus and the unusually hot June weather. Our attendance continues to be good, but not overcrowded. We miss the absent ones and wish them a pleasant vacation and a safe return. A congratulatory reception was tendered all the graduates of 1919 at Zion, Tuesday evening last. After a program of music, congratulatory speeches, and responses in the main auditorium, graduates and friends retired to the large Sunday-school room which had been beautifully decorated for the occasion, and were served light refreshments. A number of short, bright table addresses enlivened the occasion, and steps were taken to form a pan-alumni association.

INTERSTATE ASSOCIATION
OF NEGRO TRAINMEN
Substantial Men of Oklahoma Incorporate Union for Protection of Colored Employes of the Nation's Railway Systems — Five Brotherhoods in Prospect.
Special to THE FORUM
Washington D. C., June 26.—The Interstate Association of Negro Trainmen of America, looking to the perfecting of a union of all unorganized colored employees of the railway lines of America, for their full protection in working conditions and wages, has been incorporated in the District of Columbia, following the completion of preliminary plans inaugurated about a year ago.
Attorney E. T. Barbour, of El Reno, Okla., is named as general counsellor and organizer. Richard A. Buford, of Oklahoma City, Okla., is general secretary, under a bond of $5,000, with the United States Fidelity and Guarantee Company. Both are substantial and reliable men of affairs of Oklahoma, and are vouched for by the strongest financial forces of that State. L. Melendez King, of Washington, D. C., and William T. Francis, of St. Paul, Minn., leaders of the bar in their respective communities, are associated with the general counsellors' staff, assuring a strong legal combination. J. H. Maxwell, supervisor of the Pennsylvania Railway dormitories at Washington, recognized as a capable business man by the Pennsylvania Company, which employs over eight hundred Negroes, is one of the incorporators of the association and will have an important part in the direction of its affairs. Wallace Barksdale, of this city, also a railway attache, is a charter member and an active worker in the organization.
The objects of the Interstate Association of Negro Trainees are: To maintain and insure standard working conditions and a uniform wage scale; to destroy caste and color prejudice that militate against justice as to these essentials; and to establish reci-
procity between such other bodies of organized labor as shall be necessary for the promotion of the welfare of the Negro employees of the nation's railway lines. It has the exclusive right, under its terms of incorporation, to form a national union of Negro railway employees, subordinate associations as auxiliaries to the parent stem. The association at this time has upwards of 2,000 members, and its branches extend into the States of Pennsylvania, Maryland, New York, Ohio, Florida, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Kansas, New Mexico, Texas, and the District of Columbia. The present plans contemplate the formation of five brotherhoods, to include all classes of labor now being performed by members of the race upon the railway systems of the land. The promoters declare that the interstate association is destined to become one of the greatest labor unions in the United States, not less effective from a racial standpoint than the American Federation of Labor, in conserving the common rights of our trainmen.
Recently the general counsellor, E. T. Barbour, was invited into conference at Atlantic City by Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, for a complete survey of the wishes and policies of the Association in the maintenance of union reciprocity between the A. F. of L. and he Negro trainmen's association. Subsequent to this interview, Mr. Barbour has decided that no further negotiations will be entered into until the matter can be thoroughly considered at the forthcoming special meeting of the trainmen, as it is felt that the formation of any kind of an alliance just now might not be to the best interests of the Negro employees in question.
The primary aim of the organizers is to place the association upon a firm, business basis, and its success in attracting to its ranks a group of our most intelligent, influential and public-spirited men, is regarded as a tribute to its worth as a factor for racial uplift. The phenomenal progress made during the past few months is persuading its sponsors to believe that the association is to fill a large place in America history, far surpassing any previous effort to mobilize the thousands of Negro trainmen who have needed only progressive leadership to obtain the rights and immunities due them.

Father J. N. Samuels-Belboder, Vicar
Sunday is St. Peter's Day. The life and character of St. Peter will be presented at the service of the Holy Communion at 7 o'clock a.m. Last Sunday morning the vicar spoke on the 100th Psalm. It is a psalm written obviously to encourage the heartiness and joyful enthusiasm in the public worship of Almighty God. By "heartiness and joyful enthusiasm," I do not mean the ignorantysteria that generally characterizes what some people call "revivals" and "testimony meetings." Mere noise indulged in from force of a reprehensible habit, is not meant. Unrestrained vocal display not here intended. No, no! Rather an ordered presenaton of praise to the Almighty is meant: a musical chorus of adoration sung in full vocal volume, and an understanding and a spirit sincere in the meaning of the giving of praise. A thorough, genuine, and reverent outburst of gratitude and thanksgiving in music and in song—the best of their kind—the noblest in thought, the greatest in comprehension, the appreciation of the love, majesty, and mercy of God. We are called upon, besides this, to add "beauty" to "holiness"—beauty of heart, beauty of attitude, beauty of speech, beauty of personal appearance, cleanliness and neatness, and for the sanctuary beauty in their garments and vestments to the glory of God. Joy—spiritual joy—is the underlying note of Christian worship. Joy in thanksgiving for sins forgiven and blessings received; joy in the assurance through faith of the love of the Father; joy in the knowledge of the fact of redemption of our souls through Jesus Christ; joy through the experience of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit in our hearts to guide and lead us into all truth; a joy promised and given by Christ Himself which He Himself declared, "no man taketh from you." Oh, be joyful in the Lord, all ye lands, serve the Lord with gladness, and come before His presence with a song. . . . Oh, go your way into His gates with thanksgiving and into His courts with praise. Do ye thank unto Him and speak good of His name. For the Lord is good. His mercy is everlasting, and His truth from generation to generation.

IN MEMORIAM
Mayme Pauley Austin
"Well done, good and faithful servant."—Matt. 25:21.
Dear Mayme, the shadows lengthen and eventide comes on while we sit and think of you. Deep grief touches our spirits. As you grew, nothing lessened your love for the Master, nor your eagerness for right. You felt the dignity of your religion as few have felt it. You bore its responsibility as few bear it, and the yoke of Christ made always the burden lighter.
You caught the wisdom and the power of Christ, and He did show forth in your life. Unto Him you took your joys, your faith, and your troubles, and now the Master has received you as He receives those who toil and labor. And great was your pay. Greater still the joy on your arrival to receive it.
We thank with our whole hearts the Father of Mercies for every good deed, and every best deed couchsafed unto you, and we beg of Him that you may long abide with us in spirit to be our joy, our consolation, our model and our inspiration.
SAD FRIENDS.
IN LOVING MEMORY

The blow was hard, the shock severe.

Entertainment
Honoring Miss Katherine Mitchell, the Omega girls of Eaker St. Church gave a hay-ride to the beautiful country home of Miss Nina Martin at Fort McKinley Tuesday evening, June 24. The party was composed of about twenty-five young people, chaperoned by Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Ellis. An elaborate lunch was served by the hostess on the spacious veranda. The Omega girls presented Miss Mitchell with a lovely table-cloth and napkins, and he was the recipient of many other presents. In the wee hours of the morning, the party gathered themselves together for the return trip; and after wishing Miss Mitchell happiness and prosperity, and voting Miss Martin an entertaining and charming hostess, said "Au revoir" to the family amid the tooting motor horns.
Scott Resigns
The War Department authorizes publication of the following correspondence:
Washington, June 11, 1919.
Hon. Newton D. Baker,
Now that the especial work I was called to Washington to do is at an end, and also because of private arrangements which become effective July 1, I am writing to tender my resignation to take effect June 30, 1919.
Before retiring, however, I wish to convey to you this expression of my heartfelt appreciation of the privilege and honor of serving in your office, during the war, as special assistant, advising in matters affecting colored soldiers and Americans generally. It has been to me an experience of greatest moment, and I have sought diligently and as effectively as possible to serve the Great Cause in which all racial groups of Americans have had an interest in common.
I shall carry back into civilian life the pleasantest recollections of your generous consideration, marked confidence, and extreme courtesy during the nearly twenty-one months I have been here. Likewise, I am pleased to testify as to the uniform courtesy and consideration which have been shown me at all times by your entire office force.
I am to remain in Washington as secretary-treasurer of Howard University, and shall be pleased at any time to respond to any call for service wherein my judgment may be of value.
Washington, June 13, 1919.
Mr. Emmett J. Scott,
War Department.
Dear Mr. Scott:
I have just received your letter of
June 11, tendering your resignation to
ake effect June 30, 1919, and have
noted my acceptance upon the paper.
As you thus bring to an end your period of association with the department, I take the opportunity to express my deep appreciation of the fidelity, zeal, and intelligence with which you have done the work entrusted to you. That it was difficult goes without saying; but your uniform sympathy and courtesy has, I feel very sure, enabled the War Department to make clear to the colored people of the United States its earnest desire to see their service in the great war rendered under circumstances satisfying alike to their ambition and pride.
Taking it all in all, the relations between the War Department and the colored people of America have been sympathetic and helpful, the service rendered by colored soldiers and civilians has been conspicuous, and I trust that permanent value will accrue to the race, as well as to the country generally, from this great experience. Cordially yours, NEWTON D. BAKER, Secretary of War.

WESLEYAN METHODIST
Last Sunday was observed as Parents' Day. We were glad to see the large number present, to hear the encouraging remarks from the pastor. The problem is to get the parents more interested in Sunday school and church work, and that will solve the problem for the next generation. Next Sunday will be held the quarterly Sunday-school convention. There will be delegates from each school in the city with splendid reports and other representatives from the schools. The program will start promptly at 3 p.m. Come early to get a good seat.
July 6, the rally, the day every member and well-wisher will be busy and ready to make a full report. We hope every captain will have their members in line, and be able to go over the top, for those who stay in Egypt must entertain those who reach the promised land. We want to have one grand reception for all, given by each captain. Dear reader, you are welcome to come and bring your friends.
The Wesleyan Methodist Sunday school will hold its second quarterly convention, Sunday afternoon, June 29, at 3'clock. There will be delegates from Zion, McKinley, Bethel, Eaker, Euclid Ave., Mt. Olive, Mt. Pisgah, C. M. E., and A. M. E. Zion Sunday schools. These schools will make a report of the progress of their school. A very interesting program will be rendered also. Plans will be laid for organizing a union among the schools of the city, to hold regular district conventions, which will be a help to all the schools. Every pastor and superintendent is requested to be present. Don't forget the time and date—June 29 at 3'clock.—R. McGregor, Supt.
BETHEL NOTES

This is what we call going over the top. All members that have not paid their quota, please come out this Sunday, as the rally is continued until Sunday night. Each board did fine in raising their money. We want to raise $500 Sunday, so please come out—we missed you last Sunday.
Strangers are always welcome. Rev. Dr. Anderson, pastor; Banks Taylor, clerk.
