of the "Southerner" drawn by Neales Monthly and elaborated by The Crisis.
Is it a true picture of the sixteen or more millions of whites in the South? Certainly not. It is a laughable caricature. But—and this is the serious part—it is a true picture of certain elements in the white South, and the rest of the white South is willing to let that type of Southerner represent it. Thus they repudiate Walter Page and accept lames K. Vardaman.
Winchester, Ky., Nov. 7. The election in Clarkcounty passed off quietly, a good vote being polled. In theFourth ward H.D.Colerane, a colored Republican, was elected to the city council. He defeated a Progressive.
Some ways of life are so simple. There was, for instance, a few years ago, a solution of the Negro problem so ridiculously simple that those who did not receive it as gospel were hooted if not stoned. The gist was this: The Negro must work out his own salvation. The Negro must make himself useful to his neighbors. The Negro must not complain. Duties must be taught Negroes—never mind their rights Negroes must let politics alone. Money talks—let the Negro get a $5,000 brick house and his individual problem is solved.
This the Negro has done. He has striven to solve his problems unaided. He is so useful to his neighbors that the problem of tomorrow will be the Southern millionaire waxed fat on the starvation wages of black peons. The mass of Negroes has been so ground down and oppressed that they do not know what complaint is. If they did, segregation, "Jim Crow" car and distranchisement would disappear tomorrow. We have "let politics alone" so effectually that we practically have no voice in our own government, and we have accumulated brick houses so fast that from Boston to Galveston white nerves are being strained to drive us out of them.
We are theretoore listening to those eminent and distinguished solvers of the Negro problem, white and black, who with hat in hand, have in the last twenty years been lulling this nation to sleep and also feathering their own nests; we are listening to further advice and direction along the simple way.
SOUTHERNERS.
We are delighted to learn that Walter H. Page, former editor of the World's Work and now Ambassador to Great Britain, is not a 'Southerner.' This point is definitely settled by the editors of a Southern magazine published in New York for the the conversion of the heathen. We had long suspected this. We have used the term "Southerner" in a restricted sense
It did not refer, for instance to a person born in the South, otherwise (Heaven forfend!) there would be some 8,000,000 black "Southerners"—an unthinkable thing. "Southerner" means something special limited, definite. It could not refer to Walter Page. Mr. Page, for instance, has worked for the social uplift of the Negro, he has met Negroes on terms of equality, treating them, indeed, as gentlemen. He believes in the right of black men to vote and aspire. Now all this we learn, on the authority of Neale's Monthly.
W. E. B. DU BOIS.
precludes Mr. Page from being a "Southerner." A "Southerner," "it seems must be a man who has assimilated no new ideas as to democracy and social classes since 1863; he must be "haughty," intolerant and snobbish. His ancestors must have been "aristocrats" and he must have had a black mammy whom he loved, and as an evidence of this love he now and then lynches her grandchildren. But the Southerner has one characteristic above this; he hates Niggers; he pursues them vindictively; he chases a drop of Negro blood like a sleuth. He makes it his chief business in life to hound to hound, op press and insult black foik, and to tell them personally as often as he can how utterly he despises them—except their women, privately. These he likes. The "Southerner', is intensely religious and set on foreign missions. He especially wishes to convert the heathen in China and the Congo Valley. He is also a familiar friend of God and knows more about the religion of Jesus Christ than any other Christian. This is the picture

DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, NOV. 15, 1913
SHORTER CHAPEL A MODEL CHURCH
Shorter Chapel A. M. E. church at the corner of Washington and 23rd streets this city, fills a unique place in the religious, social and moral life of our people in the middle West. Having been organized in 1868 by Rev. John M. Wilkerson with, Lewis Price, Irving Williams, Samuel Cook and others as trustees, under the gracious direction of divine providence, she has steadily gone forward through the years administering to the needs of the community, and rendering a service which can be measured only in terms of human beings rescued, transformed and inspired. The first church edifice was a frame erected on Market St., between 17th and 18th; the second was a brick erected on the corner of Stout and Nineteenth streets at a cost of $2000.00. The present building was erected by the sainted John Turner than whom few ministers have rendered larger services.
Rev. Robert L. Pope, B. D.
Pastor Shorter Chapel.
Rev. Robert L. Pope, B. D. Pastor Shorter Chapel. From an humble beginning, Shorter has developed into an organization of which the Race may justly be proud. Aside from her splendid property holdings, Shorter is one of the best organized congregations in the country. Realizing that her mission was not to be ministered to, but to minister, she has not only surrounded herself with a strong board of Stewards, Trustees and Class Leaders, but she has enlisted a number of other auxiliaries, among which the work of the church is divided, and through which the influence of the church is extended and a larger percent of the membership is given something to do.
USHER'S CLUB.
No visitor can attend public worship at Shorter on the Sabbath without being impressed with the cordial greeting he receives, the ease and orderly manner in which the large congregation is handled and the ready assistance given the pastor in conducting the service by the Ushers club. This club is composed of twenty-five young men, who are the active members and a number of honorary members. Regular bi-weekly meetings are held and a systematic Bi-
ble study course is maintained for the mutual instruction and improvement. Regular contributions are made to a common treasury from which donations are made to the church and other worthy causes. Recently this club has inaugurated a free employment and information bureau as a protection to strangers against the "good time" element in
THE NEW YORKER
THE FEDERAL MUSEUM OF ART AND CULTURE
the city. Through this bureau the club cheerfully assists strangers in securing safe stopping places and helps the unemployed to secure employment. Though it has been only a few weeks since this line of work has been attempted, the popular favor which the endeavor has met and the magnificent service which has been rendered have fully justified the undertaking.
Parsonage of Shorter Chapel.
Gospel singing is second only to gospel preaching, and in this respect also Shorter has been graciously favored of the Lord. Her choir has not only made a large contribution to the regular services, but for a year, under the auspices of this band of christian workers, monthly sacred concerts have been held when the congregation has been treated to the best in music and the best in thought. At these services some representative citizens has been secured to discuss some phase of race development. Denver's public has shown its appreciation for this service by turning out in large numbers on these occasions.
Shorter's Woman's Mite Missionary Society is easily the strongest of the kind amid the Rockies. It has a regular enrollment of 171 and an honorary enrollment of 50 mak-
ing a total membership of 221. It too hold semi-monthly meetings when a program is rendered, current events discussed and light refreshments served. It is through this body that the church raises a considerable amount of her missionary fund and to the hands of these splendid women the charitable contribution of the church are entrusted. Home and foreign fields are blessed with the benign influence of this organization; the sick and worthy poor of Denver know
Shorter Chapel Ushers Club that in this society they have a true friend.
THE SEWING CIRCLE Few churches are blest with a sewing circle such as Shorter's. Under the leadership of Mrs. Alice L. Mason whom the women all love and than whom there is no better president, the circle has reported upward of $500.00 from from garments and other articles made and sold. It is indeed
a coveted pleasure to see this happy band at work with their hands. STEWARDESS and DEA-CONESS BOARDS
The Deaconess and Stewardess boards are also strong and ready. Their feet find their way to homes where sorrow and mourning make their

abode; and with them go sunshine and love. Through their prayers, songs and explanations of God's Word, many a wayward son and fallen daughter have been started in the upward way. No night so dark, no day so cold, but that these brave little bands will go out to carry a word of cheer, food or flowers to those who need them.
Perhaps of all the accessories to the church the Sunday or Bible school is the most
important, for it is here the young as well as the old learn to love God through the study of His Word. Realizing the importance of this department of church activity, Shorter is trying to make her Sunday school equal the best. For a number of years the school has been graded and ot regular intervals, its promotions are made. There are several well defined departments, Primary, Junior, Intermediate, Senior and Adult. The first graduating exercises of the Primary department were held on Sunday Oct. 12th of the present year when seventeen boys and girls were given certificates of graduation. A Teachers Normal class with an enrollment of twenty was organized in 1912 for training teachers, and its meetings are being attended with surprising regularity. The growth of this Sunday school is due in large measure to the faithfulness of the superintendents and teachers. Almost each Sunday finds each teacher in his place, and each Friday evening finds them at a well attended teachers meeting. Thus the oldest Sunday school in Denver marches forward.

ACTIVITY OF BOYS' CLUB.
Brooklyn Institution Delights Large
Audience With Laughable Farce.
The High School Boys' Spanish club presented the extremely laughable farce entitled "Box and Cox" at Summer hall, in Brooklyn, Friday evening. Nov. 7, to the delight of a large audience. The club was assisted by the Guitar and Mandolin club of the Carlton avenue branch of the Young Men's Christian association.
The club is essentially a Y. M. C. A. product. It is composed of high school boys, who, aside from their regular studies, are being taught the French language by Rufus M. Meroney, secretary of the Carlton avenue branch of the Y. M. C. A. Secretary Meroney is a graduate of Yale college and since becoming secretary of the Y. M. C. A. in Brooklyn has continued his activity along literary lines.

Daily Christmas Hint
Present For the Woman Who Does the Mending
"Button, button—who's got a button?" will not be the cry if a bag like the one illustrated is given to the member of the family who does the household mending. Nothing more important in the way of materials is needed than a quarter of a yard of denim and some bright colored cretonne. The denim is used for the outside of the oblong strip, and on the inside are compartments for scissors and spools of thread. In the center is a bag of the cretonne for

holding the buttons. The entire bag is bound with ribbon, and the handles are of heavy cord wrapped with the ribbon.
A yard of lawn or dimity makes a pretty remnant bag. Cut a strip eighteen inches wide and sew into shape. Sew lace about the edges and work a buttonhole at each side for the ribbon to run through, make a casing and run inch wide satin ribbon in, leaving enough to make a bow at each side. This bag is especially useful to a young mother for holding scrape of white trimming she accumulates for baby's use.
Needles of all sizes used in sewing on buttons should accompany the bug. Many of the ordinary needles are too thick to slip conveniently through the tiny eyes of small buttons. A paper of needles tested to make sure they are the proper sizes will be appreciated. So, too, will threads especially stout, but not too course for the needles. As a rule, then thread is the best for this purpose.

This Poppy Pincushion Is
Extremely New and Smart
This pincushion is made over a wooden hat stand. These wooden forms are purchased at any fancy work store. The huge flower forms are good imitations of large poppies. The top is a smaller poppy.
The flowers at the base are three in number. Around a padded satin covered center are the petals. The center is made by a ball of cotton, the silk curved over it and sewed at the base. Pink ribbon is gathered one-fourth of an inch from the edge. Ribbon is at-
A

tached to the base of the padded center, and the ribbon is wound about in three layers. This gives the petal effect.
The three forms are placed around the base after the stem is wrapped by the ribbon from base to top. A long piece of ribbon is shirred, as in the flower forms, and wound around itself, as the swirled roses are made, the lower edge drawn and sewed fast to the top. Put pins with black, white and colored tops in the centers of each flower at the base and you will have finished as pretty a pincushion as you will see.
These floral pincushions may be made to represent other flowers than poppies, of course. It is a good idea to scent them with sachet powder. The scent should, if possible, be suited to the flowers, a rose cushion being perfumed with rose powder, etc. If you happen to know what is the favorite flower of the one for whom the gift is intended use it in designing the pincushion. A gift of this sort will be appreciated and kept long after the useless trifles so often got up in the name of fancy work are discarded and forgotten.
UPLIFT WORK IN NORTH CAROLINA
Influence of State Normal School Widely Felt. ACTIVITY OF THE STUDENTS
Success of Institution In Fayetteville Largely Due to the Untiring Efforts and Executive Ability of Its Principal, Who Knows How to Get the Best Results.
By GEORGE F. KING.
Fayetteville, N. C.—Both races in this section of North Carolina are especially proud of the quiet but real, tangible work for the effective advancement of the Afro-American folk that the State Normal School For Colored Youth in this city is accomplishing. This splendid state institution is largely a tribute to the exceptional ability of its principal, Dr. E. E. Smith.
The graduates of this school have been so imbued with the spirit of righteous activities that the Afro-American farmers especially and hundreds of our people of the rural districts are given a proper conception of what efficiency counts for in the struggle for decent existence.
These well trained young men and women have caused hundreds of Afro-Americans to make their homes attractive and healthful. They do not divorce religion from their daily activities. These young people, in many instances, have exerted an inspiring in-
C.
PRINCIPAL R. E. SMITH. fluence over many of their fellows, especially the obstreperous youths that were inclined to become immune to civic righteousness. In this particular instance, which is so evident and impressive, Dr. Smith's career in this work has elicited unserving support on the part of the better class of white citizens of North Carolina. It is stated by many in authority that he has built up one of the best state institutions for colored youth in the state.
The great demonstration by the farmers of this section last September, when they had a parade consisting of 250 men mounted on horses and mules and buggies and marchers making a continuous line for over two miles, the judge closing court for the day and a number of prominent white citizens visiting the school to witness the events of the day, is concrete evidence of the value of the school to the state.
The attendance this year is unprecedented in the annals of the school. The student body reflects the kind of credit on principal and faculty that will ultimately make the Afro-American trumpet over barriers that at times seem insurmountable.
The forty-sixth annual session of the Baptist educational and missionary convention of North Carolina, which recently met at Rocky Mount, was strongly indoors by Dr. Smith. It is conceded by some of the leading men of the race identified with him in a number of excellent movements that there is not a better record keeper in the south than he.
As an appreciation of this fact this convention at its session in 1912 honored him with a costly gold headed cane and enthusiastically re-elected him their recording secretary. It is said that he was one of the most dignified and efficient United States ministers to Liberla that this country has had. He served in ex-President Cleveland's administration.
South Makes Bid For Foreign Labor.
The Hon. Ralph W. Tyler struck the keynote in a recent article, dated from Greensboro, Ky.. In reference to the desire on the part of southern agriculturists to have the tide of foreign immigration turned to the southland. At a meeting held in New Orleans the last week in October the Mississippi Valley Immigration association passed resolutions asking government aid in turning the tide of immigration from the east and west to the great undeveloped territory of the southern states.

RACE TRAITOR UNMASKED
By Miss Alice D. Webb—Duplicity
Race-Treachery and Toadism
Exposed.
Last Sunday night, Nov. 9th, at
Shorter Chapel in a forcibly delivered
address, entitled “Organization Great.
est Need of Negro,” Mrs. Alice Webb
impressed upon the large attendance
the necessity of organization. She
emphasized the thought that, espe:
cially in Denver, there should be one
large organization which would in
clude all churches, all political bodies,
women’s clubs and societies, ete. This
aggregate body should not be allied
to any political party but should be
our own independent party. Its duty
would be to study the various condi-
tions, needs, ete, in both city and
state and through it, the dishonorable,
cringing Negro, the barbershop orator
and chair-warmer, could be and would
be relegated to the rear. She urged
that our brainiest, cleanest and ener
getic men be made our leaders and,
any demand which would be made by
us, sanctioned by this organization,
would receive consideration, as the
intelligent use of the ballot was our
strongest weapon. Among other
things she spoke about the attitude
of some purported self-inflated, knee-
bending, treacherous, so-called repre-
sentative Negroes toward our organi-
zation, and discussing that feature,
we quote her:
“Such an organization is our only
safeguard. We owe it to ourselves
to have our people properly repre-
sented and respected in the commun-
ity, As it is now, too often those who
are foremost in seeking favors of the
white man, and who style themselves
our race leaders, are men of no intelli-
gence, unscrupulous, dishonest, dis-
honorable and willing to sacrifice
every one of us to further their own
selfish ends. Such a man disgusts
the white men even though they use
him, and they form the wrong esti-
mate of us because of this type of
Negro. We are compared with him
and classed with him and treated ac-
cordingly.
Properly organized, we could name
our own representatives and silence
forever these parasites who lower our
standard of manhood, and who are
really only lackeys to the white man,
running to him to report all our do-
ings, exposing our weaknesses and
holding us u pto ridicule and scorn.
There are those among us who thrive
and grow fat at the expense of our
race honor, Let me illustrate:
“A friend of mine is a white girl
employed in the office of the commis-
sioners, Some time ago she told me
this story: ‘A colored man was talk-
ing in our office not long ago to our
boss. After the conversation was fin-
ished our boss said to him: “See
here, what kind of a concern is that
Sunday Alliance that your people
have? They wrote the council about
that bathing beach out at Washing:
ton Perk, and say it was some letter.
They seemed to mean business, too.
What does the Alliance amount to?”’
She said the colored man laughed
heartily and answered in a loud
voice: “Oh, that ain't nothing but a
big bluff. You white folks don't need
to pay no attention to that. The ma:
jority of colored folks here don't even
know nothing about that beach. And
besides they know they ain't got no
business bathing out there with you
white folks nohow. Besides colored
folks don't like to bathe too much at
best. As to that Sunday Alliance, why
they ain’t got as many members as |
can count on one hand. For the last
fifteen years they've been meeting
every Sunday and writing letters. t
somebody and resoluting and doing
nothing else. I mosied around ther
the other Sunday just to see wha
was doing and, pshaw, man! the
done gone to writing letters and reso
lutfons to President Wilson at Wash
ington now, You see they just can’
help it. They've got that letter-writ
ing, resoluting habit.” She sald th
man Was so ridiculous and droll tha
all in the office roared with laughte:
and the slang word around the offic
now is “resoluting.”’
“Of course such a 500d story mus
have been passed «round among th
commissioners, and not only consi¢
ered a good poke, but believed. Anc
friends, think of the wrong such —
man, posing as our leader, can do t
our couse. Just one such untruthfu
eriticism can do us more harm tha
months of hard work can eradicate.
“Racemen of Denver, if ever cor
centration, co-operation and efficten
methods and men are needed to prc
tect Negro men and women and ir
sure them some political preferment
it ie now, Down with the double
minded, treacherous man who malign
his race to get a peanut job or gail
favor.”
INSULT ADDED TO INJURY.
We are told that the manager of
the Annex theatre was so exercised
over our last week’s editoriab that he
read the same between the acts, ex-
plaining that he meant no discourtesy
to the negro race. Some of the ne-
grces were willing to go back, accept.
ing the apology and explanation of
the insult as satisfactory. But there
were others who have said and are
staying away from that house, because
they say, by their actions, you can’t
insult me and then explain it and
think that is the end. In other words,
suppose a man would walk up to you
and deliberately hit you for no cause
whatever, and then when he found out
you resented it, he would try to “ex-
plain the insult.” He only added in-
sult to injury, So it is with that man-
ager of that playhouse; whether he
meant it or not, he did not reflect on
his “race,” nor the Irishman, Dutch-
man, {talian, Greek or the Chinese or
Japanese, but he did see fit to bur-
lesque, chagrin and humiliate the ne-
gro, and no explanation he could offer
will or can wipe out the prejudice
against the negro created by that act.
Negroes, we appeal to your race loy-
alty and self respect. STAY OUT OF
THAT THEATRE. We are informed
that certain low class negroes are g¢-
around “explaining. and begging” ne-
groes to come back “home.” Pay no
attention to them, but STAY AWAY.
Teach this man he cannot insult you
and your wife and then you will give
him your hard earned cash as a re-
ward. LET US STICK TOGETHER
IN THIS.
MRS. LILLIAN JONES, CONTRALTO
Of Colorado Conservatory of Music,
Makes Wonderful Progress at Re-
cital at Presbyterian Church.
No subject in the world of thought
is more discussed and often to as lit-
tle purpose, as is the art of producing
music with that wonderful instrument
which God has given to every healthy
human being—the voice. Singing 1s
at once the most instinctive and the
most artificial of things; it is at once
the easiest and hardest thing in the
world to do, However, all people de
Hght to sing and all should strive at
ter a perfected method. The skill and
intelligence of the use made of the
vocal organ was the chief thing. It
was for the above reasons that Mrs.

Lillian Hawkins-Jovues, to whom it is
conceded by all that she has a beautt
ful voice, entered the Colorado Con.
seryatory of Music for the purpose of
perfecting herself in voice culture and
expression. Her renditions, all new,
including her many encores, showed
her voice to be wonderfully improved.
The large audience was deeply im-
pressed by her manner, articulation
and expression.
Oratory, art and music, in their
highest form, are after all nothing but
expression, and without expression
none of them really exists. As a pic-
ture is not just a smear of color, but a
proper distribution of ‘color to por-
tray its subject, so music is the distri-
bution of sounds of varying pitch and
intensity to set forth shades of feel-
ing and thought, Thursday evening
Mrs, Jones was the real artist of the
occasion, receiving plaudits, beautiful
boquets, and various kinds of encour-
agement and tokens of appreciation.
Her art, genuine, sincere and modest,
was good and worth while. The audi-
ence at the conclusion encouraged her
not to fret if whe did not scale the
highest mountain peaks of music, be
cause there were many beautiful
flanks and wrinkles of rythm along the

enue ina befitting manger.
The auditorium of the church

address. A brief history of
the origin of the order was
given by the speaker, follow-
ed-by an eloquent portrayal
of the merits of the order and
all that constitutes good Odd
Fellowship. Rev. Washington
handled his subject in a mas-
terly manner and impressed
his hearers in a way that it
will not be surprising if at the
next regular meetingo! Arap-
ahoe Icdge there will be many
applications for membership
to this grand old order. Dr.
Paul E. Spratlin, District
Grand Ma%ster, was Master of
Ceremonies and in well chas-
en words introduced the three
men who organized Arapahoe
lodge, namely Messrs. Geo.

Robt. F. Johnson. Mr. T.S.
Rector, Grand Master of F.
& A. M. of Colorado Jurisdie-

a Past Grand Master of F. &
A. M. of Iowa ig aniedictiog as
well as an Odd Fellow. The
&
‘choir furnished an excellent
‘musical program. and © the
spirit ef good fellowship was
felt by all present. The ties
of F.L. & T.seemed to be
drawing tighter around the
membership of the order and
at the close of the meeting
the handshaking was hearty.

SHORTER CHAPEL A MODEL CHURCH
(Continued from page 1) ciety was organized, and where is to be found a more zealous and determined band of youthful Christian workers. Besides the usual work of such bodies, these young people are in the habit of visiting the sick and aged and reading the Bible to them. At the monthly meetings (business) the sick committee sometimes reports as many as seventy-five of such visits during the month. Shorter's League was one of the few young people's societies of color that sent a delegate to the recent International Convention of Christian Endeavor held at Los Angeles, Cal.
What has been said of the faithfulness and loyalty of the several aids of the church may be said with equal propriety of the Stewards, Trastees and Class Leaders of this church. They are praiseworthy. With these varied and vigorous auzilaries as loyal supporters, a united and devoted membership and with a good straight-forward and capable pastor, such as this church has in Rev. Robert L. Pope, there is every reason why this should be the banner year in the history of the church.

Twenty-fourth Avenue and Ogden St., David E. Over, Pastor. Residence, 2356 Humboldt St.
The ladies of the church are preparing to hold a Japanese bazaar on the evenings of the 26th, 27th and 28th of this month, at the church. It is expected to make this the most unique entertainment of its kind ever given in the city. No expense or pains will be spared to make it really entertaining. Further announcements next week.—Adv.
The church is also making ready for the observance of Sunday School day, to be held on the last Sunday of the month. A Sunday school chorus is being prepared to furnish the music. We will make this a greater day than Church Attendance day on the first Sunday. Do not fail to be present.
A union Thanksgiving service will be held this year at Central church, in which Bethlehem and Zion will co-operate. A careful program is being prepared and the public is respectfully invited to attend. Rev. Reynolds will preach the sermon.
The Men's Bible class began the season's work last Tuesday evening with a large attendance and an enthusiastic meeting. Bro. P. J. Porter was elected president and Bro. W. R. Chapman, secretary. The prospect for a splendid season's work was never better. The men of the community are invited to attend. Tuesday night, from 8 to 9.
Beginning Sunday evening, November 23rd, the pastor will preach a series of six sermons on the doctrines of the church under the general subject, "What Baptists Believe." The public is invited.

"Home Mission Week," beginning tomorrow, with the Evangelical Churches of America, will afford an opportunity to all Christians, organized or otherwise, to see their duty to the immigrant at the door of the nation as perhaps never before. This special study and survey will last for eight days. Our pulpit deliverances will be introductory measures for the observance of the week's campaign. Services every night in the chapel of the church for one hour, from 8 to 9 o'clock, except Tuesday night, when they will begin at 8:30. Special prayer services Wednesday night for Y. M. C. A. The public is cordially invited.
Next Tuesday night, in connection with the observance of anniversary exercises at 23rd Avenue Presbyterian church, the choir of the People's church, ably assisted by talent of the Eureka Choral club, will sing in recital special. Application is now before the Choral club for their first recital, accompanied by the Ideal Orchestra, at the First Avenue Presbyterian church during the month of January. The choir of the church has under advisement the filling of dates to sing at the following Presbyterian centers immediately after the engagement at the 23rd Ave. churche: Hyde Park, 32nd and Humboldt; Corona, 5th and Downing; Mountview Boulevard, Park Hill; Littleton; Golden, and the First Presbyterian, Colorado Springs.
The fourth Sunday evening at 5 p.m., Attorney John Hipp will occupy the pulpit and deliver his well known lecture, "Alcohol and the Brain."
Organized teams to do effective work for the aged and most worthy of the community on Thanksgiving day at the church report bright prospects. Friends can help us by informing the pastor or his officers of the most needy.

3100 Pine St. St. Louis, Mo. THE "PORO" SYSTEM of Scalp and Hair treatment is based on the latest scientific and sanitary methods, effecting a healthy scalp thus promoting a growth of beautiful hair.
The "Poro" preparations used in connection with the treatment are made and sold exclusively by myself, having the exclusive right to that name; and I, alone, know the secret of the composition that bears that name. Our claim has always been that when the hair begins to grow as the result of the use of "PORO," it will continue to do so if only the scalp and hair be kept clean. This sanitary method of treatment is also having the desired effect in helping to prevent the spread of diseases, for it is a fact that hair in an unsanitary condition carries the germs of disease which often prove fatal to innocent persons coming in contact with them.

THE PROBLEM OF SOCIAL JUSTICE
Discussed by a Group of Influential White Men.
WORK OF DR. J. E. M'CULLOCH
Plain Statement of Facts on the Situation In the South as it Relates to the White and Colored Citizens—Valuable Publication on Great Public Questions.
Where do the strongest, best educated and most progressive southern white leaders in church, state and the arena of education stand on the perplexing social and economic questions of the hour as they relate to the colored race? Public health, the improvement of the race along all lines of uplift, desirable civic reforms, lynching as a public crime and the making of better citizens, these are questions of social justice which are now receiving a goodly measure of attention.
Pearless, clear cut and satisfactory answers are given in "The Human Way," a most valuable and attractive volume containing the addresses on race problems which were delivered at the Atlanta meeting of the southern sociological congress. Dr. James E. McCulloch, general secretary of the congress, has done a valuable piece of work in editing for popular distribution the addresses of James Hardy Dillard, W. D. Weatherford, C. H. Brough, William M. Hunley, J. H. DeLoach, E. C. Branson, Josiah Morse, George W. Hubbard, W. O. Scroggs, Jackson Davis, B. C. Caldwell, Grace Bigelow House. John Little, Charles V. Roman, Mrs. J. D. Hammond, A. J. Barton and Wilbur F. Thirkield.
The following statement on race relationship, which was prepared and adopted during the Atlanta meeting of the congress by white men of vision and broad. Christian sympathy, expresses so completely the new program of social justice for the race in the south that it is offered with no further comment:
Recognizing that tuberculosis and other contagious diseases now prevalent among the Negroes of the south are a menace to the health, welfare and prosperity of both races, we believe that there should be a most hearty co-operation between the health authorities of the various states and cities and the colored physicians, ministers and teachers. We further believe that practical lessons on sanitation and hygiene should be given in public schools, both white and colored, and also in the institutions for advanced training throughout the southern states.
Recognizing that the south is no exception to other parts of the country in that its courts of justice are often more favorable to the rich than to the poor and further recognizing the fact that the juxtaposition of a more privileged race and a less privileged race complicates this situation, we plead for courts of justice instead of more courts of law. We plead further for a deeper sense of obligation on the part of the more privileged class to see to it that justice is done to every man and woman, white and black alike.
Recognizing that lynch law is no cure for the evil of crime, but is rather an aggravation and is itself the quintessence of all crime, since it weakens law and if unchecked must finally destroy the whole bond that holds us together and makes civilization and progress possible and that, other things being equal, a crime is worse which is committed by an individual of one race upon an individual of another race and that form of retaliation is most harmful which is visited by one race upon another, we further believe that there must be a prompt and just administration of the law in the detection and punishment of criminals, but that to this must be added those influences of knowledge and of good will between the races which will more and more prevent the commission of crime.
The economic and moral welfare of the south is greatly dependent on a better trained class of workmen in all the walks of life, and, furthermore, the state is in the business of education for the sake of making better citizens of all men, white and black alike, and thereby safeguarding the life and property of the community and up-building its economic prosperity. We believe that four definite steps of improvement must be made in the Negro schools of the south:
First.—The schools must be made to fit into and minister definitely to the practical life of the community in which they are located.
Second.—There must be a larger amount of money put into our public schools for Negroes, thus enabling them to have longer terms and to secure better trained teachers.
Third.—There must be a more thorough supervision on the part of the white superintendents, following the lead of many superintendents already working.
Fourth.—We must attempt to furnish to these Negro schools, through public funds, a better type of trained teachers, and to this end more same, thoroughgoing schools for colored teachers must be established.
FORTUNE ON LECTURE
Pioneer Editor and Author Spea "Black Man's Burden."
Considerable public interest is manifested in the lecture tour of T. Thomas Fortune, the pioneer editor, author and agitator for the advancement of Afro-Americans. Under the management of P. B. Young, editor of the Norfolk (Va.) Journal and Guide, Mr. Fortune is delivering a series of lectures in Maryland, Virginia and North Carolina during November. The subject of his lectures is "The Black Man's Burden."
The success with which he has already met on this tour is not surprising when one considers the personality of the two men. Edifor Young is well versed in the essentials necessary to the success of such an undertaking and the lecturer has long been looked upon as an authority on most questions of importance which concern the well being of the race in the United States. Mr. Fortune is a native of Florida. His first experience in a newspaper
A. B.
T. THOMAS FORTUNE.
office was gained while occupying the position of printer's "devil" in Jacksonville, Fla. After attending school in Jacksonville, during which time he worked in the city post office, Mr. Fortune was appointed (in 1874) mall route agent between Jacksonville and Chat tahoochee. He was later appointed special inspector of customs for the first district of Delaware.
His real career as a journalist, however, began in 1880 when with two friends he began the publication of the Rumor, which after two years was changed to the New York Globe. In 1885 Mr. Fortune began the publication of the New York Age, with which his name has been more or less intimate, associated ever since, although at the present time he is not officially connected with that publication.
He is not only a pioneer newspaper man, but an author as well. "Black and White," and "The Negro In Politics" are possibly the best known of his published writings. Mr. Fortune is a member of the National Negro Press association and was one of the speakers at the annual meeting of the association held in Philadelphia last August.
FINE TRIBUTE TO THE WORK OF HAMPTON INSTITUTE.
How Its Founder Foresaw Value of Vocational Education.
That Hampton and Tuskegee schools for negroes are valuable not merely as excellent schools for the colored race, but for their important contribution to the present vocational education movement, is the declaration of the United States bureau of education. In a pamphlet just distributed by the bureau, entitled "Education For Life," tribute is paid to the work of Hampton institute and particularly General Armstrong, its founder, who is looked upon by educators as a pioneer in the field of practical education.
"General Armstrong possessed to a remarkable degree the gift of educational prophecy," asserts Professor Peabody in the introduction to the pamphlet. "He foresaw and foretold with extraordinary precision the tendencies and transitions which in the last twenty-five years have practically revolutionized the principles of education. The training of the hand and eye as well as the mind, the moral effect of technical skill, the conception of labor as a moral force, the test of education in efficiency and the vanity of education without discipline in thrift, self help, love of work and willingness to sacrifice—all these familiar maxims of modern vocational training were set forth by him with all assurance of a social prophet."
The pamphlet includes a brief sketch of General Armstrong's life and a collection of pithy utterances on aims and methods of education, many of which are distinctly helpful to those interested in present problems, according to officials of the bureau of education. It is felt that General Armstrong's theory and demonstration of practical education have proved to be right, not merely for one race, but for mankind generally.

Club, Douglas, Ariz,, was called from
earth to heaven, September 3rd, 15.
‘This beautiful rose taken from the
club was a true, loving and loyal

The Art Club has lost a devoted
sister and loving member but our loss
is heaven's gain.
Be it Resolved, That we bow i:
humble submission to the will and
order of God the Father, who giveth
and taketh,
In the name of the Lord, be it fur-
ther resolved, That a copy of these
resolutions be spread on the minutes
of our club and a copy be sent to the
bereaved family and be published in
The Denver Star.
One precious to our hearts has gone,
the voice we loved is still, the place
made vacant in our circle can never
more be filled. Our Father, in His
wisdom, called the boom His love had
given and though on earth the body
lies, the soul is safe in heaven
