who are wronged. Some day the United States as well as Russia must pay a fearful price for the wrongs done to humanity. "My parents had some part in the agitation which culminated in the overthrow of slavery and I am glad that, in addition to my work for the rights of women I may aid and encourage the colored race in the fight it is making against the many wrongs which it suffers in the United States. "Do not give up the contest for absolute equality before the law. Every form of injustice must be fought to the bitter end. "Who would be free, themselves must strike the blow."

Hit President Wilson's Policy
Waterbury, Conn., Nov. 13. Condemnation of alleged segregation of white and colored employees in Government departments in Washington as a "violation of the just principle of equality" was voiced by the 47th annual meeting of Congregationalists. The solution adopted to be forwarded to President Wilson sollows: "The Congregationalists of Connecticut, in general conference assembled, enter their emphatic protest against the segregation of colored employees in the Government departments.
"We believe it to be a violation of the just principle of equality, written into American faith by our fathers, and an injustice to the established methods in civil service appointments
"We respectfully petition the President and the Congress of the United States to prohibit all such degrading discrimination in the public service.
MRS. PANKHURST SPEAKS AT CHICAGO
Gold cigarette cases, lockets and chains and other valuable trinkets were poured into the "war chest" of Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst last week at the Institutional church in Chicago, after the militant leader had made her first public address before colored men and women. Eight hundred people were in the audience. Mrs. Pankhurst was introduced by Mrs. A.J. Carey wife of the pastor of the church.
At the Institutional church Mrs. Pankhurst said she had added the extra lecture because in Philadelphia a young colored girl had come to her at the close of her lecture and asked her to give the colored people a chance to hear what she had to say on the social evil. The lecturer said that in all her travels in the United States she never had met a discourteous colored man.
"Through the vote we will be able to put an end to the degradation of the race," said Mrs. Padhurst, "and uplift not only the woman, but the men as well. The degradation of fallen men is far worse than that of fallen women. The dominator is always more degraded than the slave. We are always told the accident of the birth should not give any man an advantage over any other man. But when it comes to sexes, the most ignorant and degraded man in my country thinks himself naturally superior to the most intelligent, cultured and high-minded woman.
"This is true not only in votes, but in every, walk of life. It is not the value of work, but sex that decides the thing. In teaching, in business, in everything it is the same. American men are being wise in time, and taking matters by the forelock. They are raising the status of the race by giving equality to women. They are preventing the growth of serious social evils.
"Women can make a better claim to citizenship than men if sobriety and morality are counted as qualifications of citizenship and they certainly should."
Just before leaving the Institutional church where she made a great speech for wowan's rights and also pleaded for justice to the colored people, Mrs. Pankhurst was asked about her views on racial segregation and replied: My soul revolts at segregation whether of the Jews in Russia or of the colored people in America. In the end such injustices really degrade the perpetrators and their children far more than the people

Proclamation of Thankgiving
Washington, October 23. President Wilson today designated Thursday, Nov. 27th, as Thanksgiving Day, and issued the following—his first Thanksgiving Proclamation:
"The season is at hand in which it has been our long respected custom as a people to turn in praise and thanksgiving to Almighty Goc for his manifold mercies and blessings to us as a nation. The year that has just passed has been marked in a peculiar degree by manifestation of His graciions and beneficent providence. We have not only had peace throughout our own borders, and with the nations of the world, but that peace has been brightened by constantly multiplying evidences of genuine friendship, of mutual sympathy and understanding, and of the happy operation of many elevating influences both of ideal and of practice.
"The nation has been prosperous not only, but has proved its capacity to take calm counsel amid the rapid movements of affairs and deal with its own life in a spirit of candor, righteousness and comity. We have seen the practical completion of a great work at the Isthmus of Panama, which not only exemplifies the nation's abundant resources to accomplish what it will, and the distinguished skill and capacity of its public servants, but also promises the beginning of a new age, of new contacts, new neighborhoods, new sympathies, new bonds, and new achievements of co-operation and peace.
"Righteousness exalteth a nation' and 'peace on earth, good will toward men' furnish the only foundations upon which can be built the lasting achievements of human spirit. The year has brought us the satisfaction of work well cone, and fresh visions of our duty which will make the work of the future better still.
"Now, therefore, I, Woodrow Wilson, President of the United States of America, do hereby designate Thursday, the 27th of November next as a day of thanksgiving and prayer, and invite people throughout the land to cease from their wonted occupations and in their several homes and places of worship render tnanks to Almighty God.
"In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.
"Done at the city of Washington this 23rd day of October, in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and thirteen, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and thirty-eighth.
strong and active in their religious duties. The Trustee board are men of business qualifications, which enables them to discharge their duties with creditable integrity. A cordial welcome is extended all by the Usher's club and the large congregations are handled in a systematic way. The choir, with Prof. Chas. Clark as director and Mrs. Clark Craig as organist, are an invaluable assistance to the pastor and the service. Sacred programs are rendered occasionally at the Sabbath evening service and are highly appreciated.
The Woman's Mite Missionary society under the leadership of Mrs. James Washington, is one of the strongest organizations of the church. They are active in charity work and in spreading the gospel at home and in foreign lands. Mrs. Mary Finley is the energetic president of the Sewing Circle, which organization gives splendid financial support to the steward board. The Stewardess Board with Mrs. Hattie King as chairman are active in their work of assisting the Stewards in discharging their various duties. Under the faithful superinten

dency of Mrs. Ethel Fitchue and an able body of officers and teachers, the Sunday School has a large attendance and is doing a great work in the training of the young minds. The Allen Christian Endeavor, has created a very enthusiastic spirit amongst the younger set of Campbell, causing them to become a zealous band of christian workers. Mr. D. D. Howard is the earnest president, The Young Ladies Literary and Art club a long needed organization has been recently organized by Mrs. Washington and Miss Thelia Tucker was elected president. A literary program is rendered once a month. The remainder of the meetings are devoted to fancy work. A keen interest is astir among the girls.
The Trustee's Aid, Mrs. L. O. Tucker as chairman, is one of the busiest organization of the church. They assist the trustees in raising funds to pay the incidental expenses of the church. Surrounded by these strong auxiliaries and with their faithful class leaders and pastor, Rev. Washington, we look forward with renewed anticipations to a successful conference year.

EVIDENCES OF PROGRESS.
Brief Account of Part Played by Afro-Americans In a Thrifty Industrial Center—Reasons Why R. Kelly Bryant Finally Decided to Make His Permanent Home In the South.
Rocky Mount, N. C. — This city is quite a railroad center, and thousands of people are given employment by the shops of the Atlantic Coast Line railroad. In these shops may be found hundreds of Afro-Americans, drawing good pay, and the entire community is a scene of activity. The efficient Afro-American artisan is kept busy, there being a number of successful contractors among them.
The population of this city is increasing surprisingly, and among the newcomers will be found an appreciable group of progressive Afro-Americans
A.
R. KELLY BRYANT. that are mingling with the leading commercial characters of the community.
There is a tendency on the part of the Afro-American of this section to encourage and substantially support commendable racial movements. A striking evidence of this fact is revealed by the large and successful business of Messrs. R. Kelly Bryant and W. A. Bryant, two hustling brothers who are doing more retail business in their respective lines than any other firm in the city.
Mr. R. Kelly Bryant is the manager of this business, which gives employment to ten men and two young women. Two delivery wagons are kept constantly on the go. Kelly Bryant has traveled throughout the western sections of this country with a view of finding in what section the race is making the most progress. He finally decided that the south afforded the largest opportunity, all things being equal, for commercial development.
He returned to Rocky Mount and began preparation for a business career, which within a few years has been productive of very satisfactory results. Mr. Bryant is not only a progressive business man, but a student of books as well. He gives his spare time to reading business law, that he may be the better prepared to protect his interests along legal lines. Mr. W. A. Bryant up to the time he entered the business was a fireman on the Atlantic Coast Line railroad. He is regarded as a man of high ideals and thrifty habits. He has saved his earnings and invested in good real estate and has given the young men of this locality the right kind of example.
He is judicious, unassuming and possessed of a keen business acumen. The Messrs. Bryant conduct two branch stores, and their credit is good. They are recognized by the commercial agencies of this section in a manner which reflects much credit upon their integrity as business men. In all matters of racial uplift they may be counted upon to do their duty fully.
Tenth Anniversary of Women's Clubs.
The tenth anniversary of the Pennsylvania Federation of Colored Women's Clubs was duly observed Monday evening, Nov. 10. The exercises, which were of a high order, were held in the auditorium of Grace Memorial Presbyterian church in Pittsburgh. The literary program was in charge of Mrs. L. S. Lee. The organization is in a flourishing condition, and each club connected with the federation has some special line of work to interest its members. Churches in the various communities, charitable institutions, private homes and individuals have been the recipients of the generous hospitality of these clubwomen.

JUVENILE DELINQUENTS.
Investigation by a Chicago Protective Agency Reveals Startling Facts
Answering the pointed question, "How far is the door of opportunity shut to the colored people?" Mrs. Louise de Koven Bowen, president of the Juvenile Protective association in Chicago, says: Startled by the discovery that one-eighth of the girls and young women confined in the jails of Chicago in a year were colored, the association has sought to find out the reason for such a large number of colored delinquents. The cause is found in the following statement, according to Mrs. Bowen: Good home environment is often denied the colored people, for they find it difficult to move into desirable parts of the city. Colored young people become discouraged in efforts to secure education, for employers who use colored persons at all place and keep them usually in menial labor.
The chance for skilled work and a good job is small. Of the colored men in Chicago 12 per cent work in saloons and pool rooms. The virtue of colored girls is placed in jeopardy, for employment agencies openly send them to work as maids in unsafe houses where white girls are not sent, the agency fearing charges of pandering if they are forced into prostitution. Opportunities for play and amusement are meager. Of fifteen small parks and playgrounds only two are utilized by colored children. They avoid the others because of friction with white children.
But the most cruel injustice is done in "suspecting" Negroes of crime and railroading them to prison on flimsy evidence. The association has found flagrant instances—one in which a Negro boy was frightened, cuffed and kicked into confessing rape. He was sentenced to fourteen years. The association found indisputable proof that the boy was innocent.
INDEPENDENT POLITICAL LEAGUE MAKES PROTEST.
Files Petition Against Race Segregation With President Wilson.
Washington.—A delegation of colored citizens representing the National Independent Political league bearing a protest and petition directed against race segregation in the government service recently visited the president and had an audience with him. The petition bore about 20,000 signatures from thirty-eight states, mostly colored people, about equally divided between the south and the north. The delegation was introduced by Congressman Thatcher of Massachusetts.
The delegation was composed of W. Monroe Trotter of Boston, Rev. Dr. Byron Gunner of Hillburn, N. Y., president of the league; Dr. William A. Sinclair of Philadelphia, W. Maurice Spencer of Delaware, Thomas Walker of District of Columbia, F. H. M. Murray of Virginia and Mrs. Ida Wells Barnett of Chicago. W. Monroe Trotter, editor of the Boston Guardian, was spokesman. He made an extended statement and gave instances of discrimination which had been discovered and insisted that these were calculated to "humiliate and degrade our race and bring it into scorn and contempt," and that it was all the worse since it is being done under authority of the national government. The president was impressed by the protest and commented on its strength and stated that it was deserving of and should receive careful consideration.
The delegation said that the president seemed at first inclined to doubt if the matters complained of had any official sanction. But he was handed a copy of an order issued by the auditor for the interior department which explicitly ordered separation on account of color in lavatories. Other orders of similar import which had been issued in other bureaus were embodied in the matter left with the president. That this petition of the Independent Political league, which is an organization of colored citizens who supported Wilson, really accomplished something is evidenced by the starting of an inquiry by President Wilson. The Washington Post of Nov. 9 published the following news item along this line:
"President Wilson, in response to a petition signed by 20,000 persons, mostly Negroes of the north and south, has instituted an investigation to determine whether Negro employees in government departments are being segregated. Representatives Andrew J. Peters and Thomas C. Thatcher, Democrats, and John J. Rogers of Massachusetts have interested themselves in the protest, and it was through their intercession that the committee was given a hearing by the president. The protest was made in the name of the National Independent Political league."

THE THANKSGIVING SPIRIT. Quakers See The Ambassa
Thanksgiving Day will be observed in Denver as usual with feasting, with prayer and with union services at the Central Baptist church hand People's Presbyterian church. The day will be largely spent in reverence and giving thanks for the lives spared to enjoy, for raiment, shelter, good health and the beautiful weather given us by our Heavenly Father. Some will have enjoyment in athletics, duck shooting and various games, while others will dispel sorrow and gloom by tripping the light fantastic. Good cheer and thoughtfulness of other will predate the city. The churches will remember the poor, the aged and those who are unfortunate with hot dinners free. At night every church will entertain its respective congregation with some sort of pleasant entertainment.
JAPS DEMAND EQUALITY.
Tokio, Japan, May 17.—Irresponsible war talk was condemned by most of the speakers at a mass meeting today organized by an association representing partly business and partly educational interests, at which hsome parliamentary representatives were also present.
The speeches made by the majority of the educational representatives, in contrast to the other addresses, were sober and conservative. They gave expression to confidence that the Americans will side with the Japanese if the Japanese steadfastly point out the unfairness of discrimination. It was, however, declared that the time had arrived when the Japanese must be given equal treatment with other peoples and the speakers condemned the aggressions of the whites in the world against the colored races, the instance being given of the lynching of negroes in the Southern cities. Professor Nagal of Waseda university, in the course of his address, said:
"God made the white and colored peoples equal. Unless we claim equality we shall fall to carry out God's wishes." This was received with cheering—Published by request.
On Nov. 30th Mrs. Clarence Holmes, who has recently returned from a visit to Washington, D. C., and other Eastern points, will speak at the People's Sunday Alliance.
Mrs. Holmes, who is president of the Women's Auxiliary of the Alliance, in raising funds for the civil rights fight, will give to the citizens the benefit of some of her observations, and especially with reference to the evidences of prejudice or fair play as she saw it in other cities.
Now a word as to the civil rights fund. Don't conclude that the matter has been dropped or died out as things usually do among Negroes. We have an amount of cash on hand and a subscription list that we expect paid and largely increased.
The fight has only begun. But it is no use to enter the warfare without munitions of war. Money talks, your inflated remarks either for or against the proposition count for little. Are you in earnest, shall we take brazen insult lying down? Or shall we stand up and make a rational demand for what already the commonwealth of Colorado has guaranteed us? If we don't at least stretch forth our hand and take what is offered us we are not worthy of it and truly ought not to have rights that others are bound to respect. How to do it? Be at this meeting on the 30th inst., bring your friends and "your change."
Further announcement of details will appear in "The Star" later. Keep time and place in mind, 4:00 p. m., Nov. 30, 1913, 2630 Welton street. W. A. JONES, M. D., President. We urge the citizens of Denver to help this matter. We need their support and this action is necessary.

HIGHLY COMMENDED
Nov. 14, 1913.
Rev. J. A. Thos.-Hazell, S. T. B., People's Presbyterian Church, Denver, Colo.
My Dear Brother:—The song recital given by the augmented choir of the People's Presbyterian church, under your direction in the North Presbyterian church, was most acceptable last night to the audience. The entertainment was all that could be deserved and I most heartily recommend your choir to any church contemplating such an entertainment, as being strictly first-class and affording a most delightful evening. I doubt if any choir in our city could produce out of its own members more talent and better harmony than that which you set before our people last night.
Most sincerely yours,
GEO. W. ARMS, JR.

GRAND JUNCTION, COLO.
Please allow us space in your valuable paper to report our little charge at Grand Junction. We are by the help of God doing all we can at this time to place Handy's Chapel in the front rank of African Methodism.
We are thankful to say that our new board of trustees has more than made good. They have done wonders in arranging ways and means to defray the expenses which have been upon this church for many years. Our ever-watchful pastor, the Rev. S. Robt. McGinnis, is always on the alert and has gotten together some of our noble men of this city and is forging to the front. Our present board is made up with such timber as the Messrs. John Newman, T. P. Langon, S. R. Pryor, John Hines, Mr. Tasker and Elijah Hines, and since the pastor has returned to us these men have raised $114.05, and today Handy's CChapel is shaking off the dust that has blinded her sight for many years. Rev. McGinnis is the right man in the right place and we hope that he will be allowed to remain as our pastor for some time to come, as he has done much for the uplift of the church and humanity. A preacher in every sense of the word, and a man whose whole hear is in his work. On Sunday evening, Rev. McGinnis preached from the text: "For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth." The Rev. McGinnis preached as he never did before since his assignment here.
NOTES FROM CHEYENNE.
Mr. R. C. Gaskin of Omaha, Neb., spent Thursday in the city.
Mr. Nolle Smith spent Sunday with his parents. He returned to Ft. Lupton on Monday.
Presiding Elder Ward passed through the city on Thursday. He was en route to Ogden, Utah, to hold quarterly meeting. He was the guest of Rev. and Mrs. J. W. Warren during his stay.
Rev. James Washington came from Denver on Sunday to preach the funeral of Mrs. Maria Hipshire.
Mrs. J. C. Gaskin has been sick the past week. She is reported much improved.
On last Monday grim death claimed Mrs. Maria Hipshire. Mrs. Hipshire was the wife of Sergeant W. M. Hipshire of the Ninth cavalry. He was unable to be present. Mrs. Hipshire was a devoted wife and a kind and loving mother. She leaves to mourn her loss a husband, a dear devoted daughter and two sons, and a host of sorrowing friends.
Mrs. Ballinger, wife of Trumpter
Ballinger of the Ninth cavalry, returned from Douglas, Ariz., last week. Mrs. Henry Montgomery was called to her home in Atchison, Kans., on account of the serious illness of her father. Word has been received of her safe arrival and that she found her father seriously ill. Messrs. Dareney, Brooks and Ridley or Kansas City were Sunday visitors. Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Redd will entertain the Women's Mite Missionary Society on Frida yevening. At the last meeting of the society Mrs. J. A. Baker was elected president, Mrs. J. W. Warren, vice-president; Mrs. J. C. Gaskin, secretary; Mrs. S. L. Willis, treasurer, and Mrs. J. E. Smith, chairman of Program committee. The Junior Stewardess Board, which has been organized by Rev. Warren, has Mrs. S. L. Willis as their able president. Rev. H. Baker of Leadville is visiting with his family indefinitely. Messrs. Wm. and Emmet Christian of Hanna have been the house guests of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Ashford the past week.
Social.
Mr. W. C. Ashford had planned to spend his birthday very quietly, as usual, but his friends decreed otherwise and took the unsuspecting gentleman completely by surprise Wednesday evening, by calling upon him in his home, at the secret invitation of his wife, and declaring they had come to spend the evening. Mr. Ashford was perfectly willing and played his part of host to suit the most exacting guest.
Mrs. J. E.' Brown will receive the Searchlight Club on Thursday and Mrs. J. A. Baker will be in charge of the program.

Here's a Useful Gift For Dainty Girls
The little pincushions that are made out of tiny baskets are most attractive. Buy a lit. basket in any shop—it costs about 25 cents—stuff it with bran, cover the top with any color silk, then paint the basket with white enamel paint or gild it with liquid gliding which comes for this purpose. Be sure to let this paint dry thoroughly.
Next take a yard of tiny rosebud trimming and drape it around the han-
BASKET HAIR PIN HOLDER.
dle of the basket like a garland. Sew another garland of the rosebud trimming around the inside of the basket, and when a few gilt hairpins have been stuck in the pincushion you have the cutest little gift to send to the girl with golden hair.

The Bride Will Think This Centerpiece Lovely
The bride who has just gone to housekeeping and is collecting a supply of table linen to add to her trousseau stock will appreciate the centerpiece shown in the cut.
The material used is a grayish tan crash of a soft pilable quality.
The conventional design, which is not unlike part of a poinsettia flower, is
CENTERPIECE WITE CLUNY EDGE
carried out in the present instance with shaded embroidery silks in deft blues, but to get the holiday spirit into the gift Christmas shades of red might be used with fine effect.
The lace edging of the centerpiece is of cluny colored to match the linen.

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.

LIGHT TURNED ON SEGREGATION
Investigation For National Association For the Advancement of Colored People Shows That Segregation Is In Full Sway In the Government Service In Washington.
New York. - The National Association For the Advancement of Colored People, incorporated in 1911, with headquarters in New York, has received so many complaints and inquiries in regard to the alleged segregation of colored employees in government departments in Washington that it sent a trained investigator, M. C. Nerney, to Washington to ascertain the facts. The association comprises both white and colored people. Its object is to secure for colored men and women full enjoyment of their rights as citizens. Justice in all courts and equality of opportunity everywhere.
It has twenty branches, ranging from Boston to Washington and from New York to San Francisco and Tacoma. It publishes each month as its official organ the Crisis Magazine, which has a circulation of 32,000. Among its officers and directors are Jane Addams, Miss Lillian D. Wald, Dr. J. E. Spingarn and Dr. John Haynes Holmes. The chairman of its board of directors is Oswald Garrison Villard of New York. Its president is Moorfield Storey of Boston. Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois is editor of its magazine. The following report of the recent investigation was issued by the association Monday, Nov. 17:
Only those departments were visited where segregation was said to be increasing. In the miscellaneous and examining division of the bureau of engraving and printing workers have been paired according to race. White guides in this department told the investigator that it was to be the future policy of the bureau to segregate all its colored employees, but that this could not be strictly enforced until the bureau moved into its new building. In the dead letter office of the post-office department colored employees have been segregated back of a row of lockers in a corner of the room. In fact, in this department segregation practically amounts to elimination, for of the seven colored men classified as clerks the investigator learned on credible authority that six were recently included in an order transferring sixty clerks, so that there will be only one colored clerk left among the thousands of white clerks employed in this department.
In the treasury building colored clerks have not yet been segregated, but it seems to be understood that as many as possible are to be segregated in the registry division. A southerner in charge of one of the offices in the treasury building remarked that they wanted to inaugurate segregation everywhere in the treasury department, but were handicapped because they did not know how to go about it, it being most difficult to determine upon the best method.
In the office of the auditor for the postoffice segregation seems to have been most skillfully worked out. Mr. Kram, the head of this department, said he never would lose an opportunity to introduce it. In one room colored men operate what is known as the "gang punch." and in another room the force working at the "assorting machines is entirely colored." White operatives doing the same work occupy separate rooms. In one alcove where the investigator visited there were nine colored women working on the "key punch." The light and ventilation were poor. These women had been moved several times, but originally had been in rooms with white clerks, where they had good light and air.
That the basis of the whole segregation idea is caste and not race was indicated by the fact that both the superintendent of the postoffice building and the clerk who acted as guide in the treasury department repeatedly called attention to the absence of segregation in the cleaning forces, emphasizing the fairness with which the colored help is treated.
Again, contrasted with the "jim-crowing" of colored clerks in the postoffice department is the apparent lack of opposition to the employment of colored messengers or laborers in this department and even of colored clerks drawing clerical pay provided they do the work of messengers or laborers.
A reliable authority informed the investigator that there are now six colored men on the clerical roll who do messenger service.
The effect of segregation is startling. Competition has been eliminated. Those segregated are regarded almost as lepers and get what no one else wants. For example, in the bureau of engraving and printing the lunch room assigned to the colored women is insanitary. In the postoffice department there is no lunch room at all for colored help. In the office of the auditor for the postoffice the colored women were taken from light and airy rooms and placed in an unpleasant alcove. In the dead letter office, where the colored workers have been grouped back of a row
of lockers, the part of the room chosen is the least desirable.
Segregation in work has been effected so far without official orders. Generally the excuse is a readjustment in the work to increase efficiency. In this reorganization clerks are moved from one room to another, and when the process is completed the colored clerks always find themselves in some mysterious way together. The only official order issued in regard to segregation related to lavatories. As far as could be ascertained, only one official has given the colored people an opportunity to express their opinion of the policy of segregation. Arrangements for segregation had been made in one of the divisions of the pension bureau, but when the chief of the division learned that the colored employees were opposed to separation he gave them an opportunity to vote on the matter. They were unanimous in their opposition.
This man is reported to have said that segregation should not be introduced while he was the chief of this division. As a further indication of the feeling of the colored people in regard to this segregation may be cited the case of an old bookkeeper in the office of the auditor for the postoffice. This man has recently been reduced from first grade to fourth grade bookkeeper with no change in salary.
The reason assigned was that he could not do first grade work. This may be true. He resented the change bitterly, and his chief told the investigator that he had cried like a baby when he was moved, not so much because of the reduction in work, but because he felt that taking him out of the room where he had sat for ten or more years with white people, including women, was a reflection upon him.
SUCCESS OF DR. L. S. FLAGG.
Bethel A. M. E. Church In Baltimore
Gains Zealous Pastor
Baltimore.—With a vim that is characteristic of the man the Rev. Dr. Lewis S. Flagg has entered upon his duties as pastor of Bethel A. M. E. church in this city. Dr. Flagg succeeds the Rev. Dr. R. William Fickland, who died recently. The congregation is one of the oldest in the country, but a few months separating its birthday from that of Bethel A. M. E. church in Philadelphia. Bethel for years had the finest church among colored people in this
P.
country. This reputation was again amply sustained when the congregation moved to its present handsome home at Druid Hill avenue and Lanvale street. Baltimore, which was secured from a wealthy white congregation for $90,000. Bethel church by reason of its big debt has to raise nearly $10,000 a year. The services of an able minister from both a moral and intellectual standpoint are needed as well as one who is able to raise large sums of money.
Dr. Flagg has had abundant success as a minister for the past thirty years. He was born near Raleigh, N. C., about fifty years ago and studied theology at Bennett college, Greensboro, N. C. He first served as a supply in the M. E. church and was later ordained to the A. M. E. ministry by the late Bishop Jabez P. Campbell. During the few years that he has successfully served in the Baltimore conference he has pastored at Bethel church, Easton, Md.; Ebenezer and Brown Memorial, Washington, and St. John's church, Baltimore. He has recently concluded a three year pastorate at St. John's church, this city, having succeeded in paying off the bonded debt on the church and adding to the membership.
Dr. Flagg has been a trustee of Kittrell college, Kittrell, N. C., for a number of years and has been honored by that institution with the degree of doctor of divinity.
Notes on the Downingtown School. The formal opening for inspection by state officials and friends of the Downingtown Industrial and Agricultural school, at Downingtown, Pa., recently revealed the fact that the institution has progressed far beyond the expectations of its promoters and other friends interested in the work which it is doing. The enrollment for the school year has already reached 150, and applications are still coming in. The new improvements in the buildings and better facilities for the comfort of students were highly commended. Every dollar appropriated by the state or donated by organizations or individuals is regularly accounted for and there is an atmosphere of confidence and respect for President William A. Creditt, the faculty and other officials which bespoke for them genuine success in their efforts to build up a great institution of learning.
