Colored Doctor Appointed
Louisville, Ky.—Dr. W. H. Pickett, a well-known colored physician, was recently appointed as a member of the hospital staff of the City Hospital. This is quite an honor when it is known that never in the history of this million dollar hospital has a colored physician ever been appointed to fill such a position. Dr. Pickett is to be congratulated for having secured such a position. He has been assigned to the out patient department.
San Francisco, Cal.-Clay Ford, the tailor, 1318 Valencia street, and his wife, were invited to an entertainment given by a Jewish society on Sept. 26 in the hall at Van Ness avenue and Sutter street, but the proprietor of the hall, a Southern white man, attempted to force them to leave the building, giving as reason:
"I am a southerner and have lived among your people. They have several times tried to rent my hall and I refused because I did not intend for any of them to stand on this floor."
Mr. and Mrs. Ford had been cordially received by their hosts and the more than two hundred Jews present had shown every sign of friendliness. After they had participated in several dances, the Southerner, who is the proprietor, approached them and said to Mr. Ford, "Here is a dollar; you and your wife leave the hall." Mr. Ford refused to accept the dollar and immediately went to the manager of the entertainment. The manager said to the owner. "That man has a card of invitation and he is as good as you are."
More than half of the guests present were attracted by the disturbance and when they had learned the cause of it, much indignation was expressed. One of the more indignant asked the owner, "Are you a Georgia lyncher? He was told most pointedly that the hall had been rented by their organization, that Mr. and Mrs. Ford were their guests, and as such would stay as long as they did. The proprietor chagrined and disgruntled, left the hall, and the Jewish hosts paid extra attention to Mr. and Mrs. Ford, trying to remove even the remotest rememberance of the unkindly action of the prejudiced Southerner.
California Negro Appointed To Office.
Los Angeles, Cal.-W. E. Easton, of this city, has been appointed by Governor Johnston to the responsible position of custodian of the subCapitol of California. This is the first appointment of a colored man by Governor Johnston.
Colored Class Orator at Ohio University.
Columbus, O.—For the first time in the history of Ohio State University, it is believed, a colored student was elected to a class office last Friday. He is Daniel Ferguson of Columbus, who has won laurels as a half miler on the university track team. Ferguson had no opposition to his candidacy for orator of the senior class.
Colored Girl Second Among 15,000 Applicants.
Miss Gladys Caution, a colored girl, stood second in a group of 1,500 applicants at a recent municipal civil service examination for playground work in New York City. Because of her rating, her name was placed on both the New York and Brooklyn eligible lists and she has been appointed to the playground at the Brooklyn end of Brooklyn bridge.—Phila. Tribune.
Put On Pullman for Three Colored Students.
Atlanta, Ga.—Bec ause a white man, who coming from Louisville, Ky., objected to the presence of three young colored people in the Pullman car, the Louisville & Nashville railroad put on a special sleeper for the accommodation of three young colored students from Louisville to Atlanta, Tuesday, October 5.
Miss Louise Matthews, daughter of Prof. W. B. Matthews, principal of Central High School; Miss Willie Mosee, daughter of Revenue Agent William Mosee, and Rufus McKinney, all of Louisville, were enroute to this city to enter Atlanta University. Their railroad tickets had been purchased and Pullman accommodations secured, but when they entered the Pullman car at the L. & N. Union station, toth and Broadway, Louisville, a Georgia cracker on his way back home entered an objection to riding in the same car with the three young folks. After a delay of thirty minutes, another sleeper was put on, and the young students were invited into it. As in-
DENVER, COLORADO SATURDAY, OCT. 23, 1915
SEGREGATION
BY CENSUS
"Negroes in the United States," is the title of a pamphlet gotten out by the United States Census Bureau. The title is misleading, for there are only 473 real Africans in the United States, according to the Census, that is Negroes born in Africa. It is wrong, unjust and un American for the government to segregate its clerks by color in the Departments in Washington, and it is also wrong, unjust and un-American for the government to issue a separate and inaccurate Census Bullentin as it has done in the case of the bulletin, "Negroes in the United States."
The United States assumes that a group of about 10,000, 000 people are Negroes and proceeds to so classify them. More than ninety-nine per cent of the persons so classified were born in America of American parents and so on back for ten generations. If a man whose ancestors for many generations is not an Amerlcan, who is entitled to the name? If a white man can become an American in two generations, why should a person of any other color bo.n in this country fail to "arrive" in the same space of time?
The name "Negro" applied to a group of citizens in this country is inaccurate, because it does not include forty or fifty million other Americans who have more or less Negro blood. The expression "pure race" is a myth so all great writers on racial questions agree. The mixing of bloods in this country has gone so far that it is impossible to determine with any degree of accuracy who has Negro blood and who has not, and for the Government to select about 10,000,000 people and say that they are "Negroes," and by that act to aid in making them a separate treatmeni in church and state, is to perpetrate a great wrong.
It is an infamous thing for the government of this great republic to draw the color line in any way. In a republic every citizen should have exactly the same status so far as the government is concerned.
There is no reason why a Democracy should attempt to classify its citizens by their blood. All persons born in this country should be considered Americans without any prefixes or suffixes.
Mr. T. Shirby Hodge has writtn a satirical novel "The White Man's Burden." In it he pictures black folk triumphing over whites by thought and invention rather than brute force.
CHIEF SAMS UTOPIA NOT FOUND; 18 RETURN.
Led by Captain Manuel F. Caneca, who commanded the Liberia, Chief Sam's ship which carried 112 misguided Negroes from the United States to Africa, a party 18, members of the crew, reached New York City on the steamer Norseman from Liverpool early last week.
Chief Sam, whose campaign in this country attracted much attention, was at the head of the party which sailed on the Liberia from Galveston, Tex., in August, 1914. The vessel was seized by the British auxiliary cruiser Victoria at Maio, Cape Verde islands, and a prize crew put aboard. This crew took the vessel to Freetown, Sierra Leono, Africa. An attempt on part of some of the party to reach Chief Sam's alleged possessions, 74 miles inland, had to be made on foot. When the party reached the place they turned around and walked back
Cherl Sam's money gave out and the crew struck for wages. The British government then seized the ship on a writ of fief at Anamabos, and there the vessel is now. Great Britain then attempted to get the crew back to the United States, and the party of eighteen which reached New York last week is the first consignment. They were sent to Hull, transferred then to Liverpool and put aboard the Norseman for New York. At the British consulate the men were paid their wages and started to their various destinations. They are all American citizens, but were under British jurisdiction until reaching their original destinations.
In the party were Dr. P. J. Dorman, of Mantee, Okla., the former ship's doctor, and Frederick Zahn, of Roxbury, Mass., wireless operator, and the only white man who embarked on the expedition. They reported that Chief Sam, the Moses of the expedition, is sick with beri-beri in Africa, but will probably recover.
Wealthy Colored Woman Dies.
Hagerston, Md.: Mrs. Mary Jane Reeder, probably the wealthiest and one of the oldest colored women in Maryland, died here in her ninety-first year.
She owned property valued at about $30,000. Her home was on Potomac street, the finest residential street in the city.

ATTITUDE TO COLORED FOLKS.
If the Northern states had all been sunk in the sea before our Civil War, the Southern states would have freed the Negro sooner or later. A prerequisite to the settlement of the race problem is that we shall treat it precisely as if the Negro had been freed by Southern legislation. I believe that we are at bottom more interested in these weaker people than we are willing to admit, and that the time is coming when our best people will speak out. I hope to see the day when our teachers will prepare our children for the right attitude toward the Negro by telling them all about his African home, the conditions which have delayed his development there, the opportunity which his presence in our midst gives us to raise him, the obligation of every person of the higher race to bear with him and to help him. I believe that such talks will have real effect on the lives of these children and help them to deal with their own problems of right and wrong, of God and the soul. Let their maxim be "Noblesse oblige." Is not this the way to fit our children for the maintenance of white ascendency?
We sincerely wish to improve the Negro-for his good and for our own, but we do not stop to consider that self-respect is as essential to his improvement as it is to ours. It is God's way of pointing the upward path. The matter must must be explained to our people in order that the white man with whom the Negro maybe brought in contact shall understand that it is not many to humiliate him.—Bolton Smith of Nashville in the Southern Workman.
Held Job Seventy Years.
Philadelphia, Pa.—Ebenezer Bishop of Bridgeton, N. J., aged 112 years, died at the Phiadelphia hospital. Tuesday Oct. 5. He was born April 2, 1803, in Bridgeton county. As a boy he was indentured to a farmer and worked at the one place for seventy years.
Colored Military Academy.
Washington, D. C.—A memorial is being circulated for signers, making an appeal to President Wilson and Congress for the establishment of a military school in connection with the work at Howard University, at which colored boys may receive training similar to that given white boys at West Point. Howard University is selected because this school is controlled by the government and suitable grounds adjacent to the school site, is available at minimum cost.
FIVE CENTS A COPY.
Central Americans Laud their Negroes.
We would be ungrateful and to be blamed if, after the war, we don't surround our black soldiers with a fraternal recognition. Those who don't know them, believe, at times, even if they admire their bravery and their dignity as soldiers, that their roughness and their savage simplicity makes them inferior men. They made a great mistake. Besides their military virtue, they possess others in the same degree of perfection. They are good, faithful, their intelligence is marvelous, quick and elevating. Their hearts are sensible to all feelings, with the capacity of the finest delicacy. Nearly all of them show a coolness and incomparable greatness of soul. Has it not been demonstrated by the gratitude and fondness with which their chief distinguish them? You must question all of those chiefs, those of highest position, those of great experimental abilities of men as Levantey, Gorand, Marshland, Baratier, who had dealt with the Negroes. When they speak of them, they speak with great vehemence and emotion; the black soldiers never fail in the entire and complete confidence reposed in them by those officers, they are truly superior. Well, they constitute an elite that has already achieved wonders and that in the great war of nations they are realizing them in higher and more wonderful scale.—Central American Express, Bocas del Toro, Panama.
Prominent Negro Physician Wins Prize.
Wheeling, W. Va.—The prize of $25 offered by the New York Medical Journal for the best paper on the treatment of flatulence (distension of the stomach or intestines with air or gases) was awarded to Dr. F. Richard Newman, 1031 Chapline St. In the May issue of the same journal and in the Southern Medical Journal there appeared articles on pellagra by Dr. Newman, Dr. Newland recently came to Wheeling from New York City. For several years he was located in Memphis, Tenn., and helped to organize the Negro Baptist hospital, and for five years was assistant surgeon on the staff. While acting in that capacity he gained quite a reputation as a surgeon and gynecologist.
Baltimore, Md.—Dr. Ernest Lyon, Liberian consul to the United States, has received a cablegram from the Liberian government authorizing him to appoint Isaac W. Gillespie of this city. United States army retired, to a captaincy in the Liberian constabulary, and Wm. Roundtree, Xenia, Ohio, to a lieutenantcy.

"HUMAN NATURE'S FOULEST BLOT"
My ear is pained
My soul is sick with every day's report
Of wrong and outrage, with which earth is filled.
There is no flesh in man's obdurate heart.
It does not feel for man: the natural bond
Of brotherhood is severed as the flax
That falls aunder at the touch of fire.
He finds his fellow guilty of a skin
Not colored like his own: and having power
To enforce the wrong, for such a worthy cause
Dooms and devotes him as his lawful prey.

MOBILE'S CAPABLE BUSINESS WOMAN
Busy Life of Mrs. Sarah J. Duncan in Alabama City.
LEADS ALONG MANY LINES.
Notable Career of Woman. Who Was Left Motherless In Her Infancy. Gains Distinction as Educator, Author and Promoter—Due Preparation Is Secret of Her Success.
Mobile, Ala.—This state has to its credit among the colored people many well educated and capable business women. One of the foremost and most widely known of this class of women is Mrs. Sarah J. Duncan of this city, who is a native of Dallas county. Mrs. Duncan was left motherless in her infancy. She was reared by a godmother and became a Christian before she entered her teens. She has made the struggle up from obscurity to wide prominence through persistent effort and is recognized in busi-
M. E. H.
MRS. SARAH J. DUNCAN.
ness, religious and educational circles as a woman of rare culture and refinement.
Before taking up her residence in this city Mrs. Duncan was the manager of the Southern Printing company at Selma, Ala., of which she was the founder and owner. Her work in Mobile includes many activities. She is the superintendent of the Metropolitan Exchange, a business concern owned by the Home Economic club; chief clerk for Knox Bros., leading undertakers, and has charge of the office of the Voice of the People, which is the organ of the Masonic fraternity.
Mrs. Duncan was for many years one of the leading public school teachers in this state. As a teacher she made a fine record in every branch of school work which she had charge of. In appreciation of her efforts and for the splendid work which she did as an educator the authorities at the Agricultural and Mechanical college of Normal, Ala., conferred upon Mrs. Duncan in 1805 the degree of master of arts. This honor came as a great surprise to her. Instead of resting, as it were, upon her oars after receiving such distinction she seemed to work more zealously for the advancement of the race in everything with which she had to do.
As a writer Mrs. Duncan has shown extraordinary ability. She is the author of a 300 page book, entitled "Progressive Missions In the South." The book is a splendid guide for those who wish to be reliably informed on how to do effective missionary work as well as to know what has been accomplished in mission work at home and abroad. Although one of the most modest of women, Mrs. Duncan is proud of her efforts in this respect because of the assistance she has rendered others in preparing to be of greater service to humanity.
In order to equip herself further for business Mrs. Duncan applied for a license as a notary public and was given authority as such by the governor of Alabama in April, 1915. Her clientele is large, as she is an officer in one of the leading secret organizations in the state and well known among the leading business concerns and religious organizations in all parts of the state. Mrs. Duncan's office is in the Masonic Temple building, where she is kept busy at all times. She is a pioneer in a legal way in showing what a woman may accomplish if she is energetic and well prepared for her work.
It is no easy task which Mrs. Duncan undertakes, to execute fully the many duties which devolve upon her from day to day, but there is a secret in how she has been able to accomplish so much of good, and that secret is preparedness. To our young people Mrs. Duncan's career and the success which she has attained should be an inspiration, for it cannot be said that she had superior advantages for either educating herself or obtaining a lucrative position. She secured both by her own energies.

FIRST FEMALE POET OF THE COLORED RACE IN AMERICA
Phillis Wheatley Was Clever Writer of Verse Over Century Ago.
Yonkers, N. Y.—Not so many of our people are familiar with the wonderful intellectual powers of Phillis Wheatley, the slave girl of Massachusetts, whose poems attracted international attention nearly a century and a half ago, as should be.
Her poems and letters include many verses which do not appear in the 1773 edition, together with a collection of her letters, charmingly phrased, addressed to different friends of hers on various topics. Of this edition only ninety-five copies have been printed, and the plates destroyed. Each of the three volumes is adorned with a handsome steel engraving of Phillis and is printed on Alexander Japan paper. A bibliography of her writings by Charles Fred Heartmann deals particularly with her writings and her history up to the period of her death.
Many pages of her unpublished poems are reproduced in facsimile, and many of her fragmentary poems which had appeared in the newspapers and magazines of the day are here for the first time published in one volume. Her poem to Washington is printed in full, together with Washington's letter to her acknowledging its receipt and his thanks to "one so favored by the muses," etc. In this poem occurs a stanza which, it would seem, entitles her to be called the first to proclaim him the Father of His Country—"first in war," etc. The idea has been adopted and used by others, but Phillis conceived it. These are the lines:
Thee first in place and honors; we demand
The grace and glory of the martial band.
But Phillis Wheatley, while she enjoyed the distinction and, worthily so, of being the first poetess of North America and the only woman of any race on this continent so recognized and acknowledged, had a friendly rival and admirer in the person of Jupiter Hammon, a Negro belonging to Joseph Lloyd of Queens, village of Long Island, who, on behalf of himself and a number of his friends, presented her with an address, a poem of twenty-one verses, of which the following excerpts therefrom will give the reader a pretty clear idea of what was back of the Negro's mind in those days. Hammon was a full grown man, and his fragmentary verses have never been collected. This poem appeared in one of the continental papers of the period and was published at Hartford, Conn. Aug. 4, 1773. Note the salutation of the gallant poet:
"Miss Phillis, pray give leave to express as follows:
Oh, cone, you pious youth, adore
The wisdom of thy God
In bringing thee from distant shore
To learn his holy word.
—Ecclesiastes xii.
Thou mightst be left behind
Amidst a dark abode;
God's tender mercy still combined.
Thou hast the holy word.
—Pascal cxxxv.
Fair wisdom's ways are paths of peace.
And they that walk therein
Each verse of this interesting poem of Hammon is a Scriptural reference showing that he was a man well versed in the Bible and understood how to apply its teachings. The warmth and fervor of the address also show that, unlike some modern poets and authors, he wasn't jealous of Phillis' popularity as a poetess. The third volume of this rare collection of Wheatleyana is a broadside of many pages, containing in facsimile the title pages of every edition of Phillis' poems published in America and elsewhere, some forty-five or more in all, which is strong proof of her popularity as a writer of clever verse during the Revolutionary period.
The Negro race owes much to Charles Frederick Heartmann, who has not brought out these books to make money, but primarily to establish the fact which American writers have been loath to admit, that a black woman of the Revolutionary period was the only and greatest poetess America had produced.
POLITICS IN OKLAHOMA
United States Circuit Court Confirms
Conviction of Election Officials.
The constitution of the United States
and the war amendments thereto prescribe the manner by which citizens of the United States may exercise the right of franchise. All male citizens of the United States twenty-one years of age, native born or naturalized, may exercise the right to vote unless such right shall have been forfeited by them for cause as stated in the law.
Notwithstanding the clearness of the national law on this point many thousands of citizens, both white and colored, in the United States are not permitted to cast their ballot at election times. Therefore the confirmation by the United States circuit court of appeals of the conviction of Frank Gulm and J. J. Real, election officials in Kingfisher county, Okla., on Oct. 8 for conspiracy to prevent colored men from voting by enforcing the Oklahoma "grandfather clause" is a big victory for national honor and citizenship rights the country over.

TALENTED YOUNG BOSTON ARTIST WINNING LAURELS.
Cloyd L. Boykin's Portrait of Frank Sanborn Attracts Wide Attention.
Boston.-Cloyd L. Boykin, a persistent and talented young artist of this city, has gained great prominence by the splendid portrait which he recently made of the famous and much loved Frank B. Sanborn. The portrait has been put on exhibition at the Copley Art gallery, where it has attracted the attention and admiration of some of the leading artists of New England. Mr. Boykin is a former student of the Tuskegee (Ala.) institute, where his elementary education was begun. He, however, came to this city early in life and began the study of art.
Like almost all of our young men and women who have made their mark in any line of special work in the trades, business or the professions, Mr. Boykin has met with many handicaps. Being experienced in northern city life and having little or no means with which to pay his way, the items of food, clothing and tufton bore heavily upon him; but, like a brave patriot and a man who had a fixed aim in view, he refused to back down before big obstacles. The result is that he has made good in his studies and is in a fair way of accomplishing his cherished hope of becoming an artist of the first magnitude.
Among the successful and influential artists of the Hub City who became much interested in young Boykin is Mr. Darius Cobb, who gave him desk room in his studio. This friendly act of kindness on the part of Mr. Cobb greatly encouraged Mr. Boykin, who was at the time almost ready to give up his studies for the time being to seek employment whereby he might earn means with which to continue his art studies at some future time.
The first picture painted by Mr. Boykin to receive any measure of attention was that of Wendell Phillips, the world famous abolitionist. The Phillips portrait was unveiled not long ago and now hangs in the Wendell Phillips school. Portraits of other noted Americans done by Mr. Boykin are those of Dr. Booker T. Washington, Edward Everett Hale and Mrs. Julia Ward Howe. These portraits bear the mark of conscientious, painstaking work and are greatly admired by the public.
Mr. Boykin regards his portrait of Deacon Ezra Kendall as his best work, although it is not so well known as the others which have been displayed at the Copley galleries and the Museum of Fine Arts. Perhaps what have stood in the way of this artist during his career more than anything else are his modesty and underestimation of his work by himself. He has at last achieved success, however, and is delighted to be able to justify the faith of his Boston patrons.
CONCORD BAPTIST CHURCH
Brooklyn Congregation Observes Fifth Anniversary of Dr. William M. Moss. The members and congregation of the Concord Baptist church joined heartily in the celebration of the fifth anniversary of the Rev. William Maurice Moss, D. D., as minister on Sunday. Oct. 10. Dr. Moss' annual printed report included the financial and membership record of some sixteen auxiliaries of the church for the past year. The membership is 1,092 and that of the Sunday school, N. B. Dodson, superintendent, 765, including the cradle roll and the home department. The total collection from all sources was $11,981.74.
The record of Dr. Moss' personal services shows that he has preached 182 sermons, delivered 56 special sermons and addresses, attended 36 special meetings, united 39 couples in marriage, officiated at 89 funerals in and out of the membership and made 398 visits to the sick, the aged and other persons in need of his services in and out of his church membership and added to the church roll 96.
FREE SEVENTH DAY CHURCH PASSES STRONG RESOLUTIONS
Congregation at Los Angeles Accepts the Bible as Its Only Guide.
The Rev. Louis C. Sheafe and congregation, who recently severed their connection with the Southern California conference of the Seventh Day Adventists' church, have founded a new Free Seventh Day Adventists' church at Los Angeles. The reason given for their withdrawal from the conference is expressed in the following resolution, which was passed and signed by a large number of members and friends of the church who are standing firmly by the Rev. Mr. Sheafe in the main stand which he has taken against race segregation:
Whereas, We, the members and friends of the Berean Seventh Day Adventists of Los Angeles, Cal., accept the Bible alone as our supreme rule of faith and practice and accept only such other writings as harmonize with the Bible; and, whereas, We, the members and friends of the Berean Seventh Day Adventists teaches that to
question or disbelieve any part of me
"Testimonies" grieves the Holy Spirit and
will lead to the utter destruction of those
who doubt or question them;
And, whereas, the same "Testimonies"
teach discrimination against the colored
race, to wit: "So long were they (the color
people) that it is a difficult problem to know how
they should now be treated" (volume 9,
page 213). "It is Satan's plan to call to
mind the study of the color line." • • •
"The colored people should not urge that
they be placed on an equality with white
people. White and colored people
should be for the intake and distinct
lines, and let the Lord take care of the
rest." etc.;
And, whereas, "opportunities are continually presenting themselves in the southern states and many wise Christian colored men will be called to the work, but for several reasons white men must be chosen as leaders;" and, whereas, the said denomination makes marked discrimination in school and sanitarium advantages against the colored people; and, whereas, Elder Lewis C. Sheafe and wife have resigned from the employ of the southern California conference of Seventh Day Adventists because they could not conscientiously accept the position taken by the denomination; and we are resolved, That the Berean Church of Seventh Day Adventists withdraw its membership from the conference, Seventh Day Adventists, because the denominational position of discrimination in teaching and practice is contrary to the plain teaching of Christ and his Apostes.
Resolved, That we extend to Elder Lewis C. Sheahe and wife our confidence and love and that we cordially invite Elder Sheahe to accept the pastorate of the Bearean Church of Free Seventh Day Adventists, pledging him our loyal support, spiritually and financially, to carry forward the great work of the third angel's message as God shall direct; and resolved, that we invite Christians of all faith or order or vote to gramine our position in the light of God's word, and that if they find us to be on a good, safe and sane basis to feel free to unite with us; resolved, that equal rights, personal and religious, be accorded to all men of every race.
The above resolutions were signed by a large number of members and friends and were unanimously adopted. This is one of the most unusual events of our generation, and the colored people of Los Angeles of every denomination are applauding the Rev. Mr. Sheafe and his congregation for the noble and heroic stand they took in this matter. The Los Angeles branch of the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People indorses the act and approves of the resolutions.
Jack—Couldn't you sell your rich uncle some of this mining stock?
Bob—I might, but suppose he should leave it to me when he dies?—Boston Globe.

REPUBLICANS MAKING GOOD.
According to the promises made for election, the position of messenger which has heretofore been held by a Democrat, has been given to a Republican in the person of J. W. Jackson, by our Governor Geo. A. Carlson. Now that the ice has been broken, the many Republican newspaper men kept the predecessor in office, Negro Republicans can confidently look for their just share of the spoils. Now a watchman's job in the. Bureau of Mines has been promised to be given us and a clerical position in the Secretary of State's office. We cannot understand why these things are not done, as the past election is over and it is about time to line up for another election. We congratulate Mr. Jackson upon his appointment and trust that the new messenger will be efficient, polite, courageous and true to his own. Governor Carlson is being highly spoken of by several of the colored people as a fair and square man, even if he is a little slow. On behalf of the colored people the Star thanks our Governor. DR. SPRATLIN APPOINTED TO
HEALTH OFFICE BY MAYOR
SHARPLEY.
Protection League Recognized. True to his promise of substantially recognizing the selection of the Colored Protective League and despite the many baneful things said to the contrary about Dr. W. H. Sharpley as candidate, Mayor Sharpley not only fittingly recognized the league who fought so vallantly for him, but also refuted by his action the unjust things said by his enemies. When the time came and an appointment was to be made, the mayor acted. We sincerely trust that in the very near future a way can be made wherein another appointment, that of J. J. Manuel, will be made by the mayor. Dr. Spratlin went to work Friday morning in the health department and the colored people are very much pleased because of Mayor Sharpley's good favor. This appointment is the best yet.
J. W. Jackson, who was recently appointed to the messengership of the Governor, succeeded in having appointed his friend Chas. M. Hughes to his route in the Capitol. Mr. Hughes is an old citizen and was employed at the Colorado National Bank building. We congratulate both men for their new acquisitions.
The Annual Harvest Dance of the Self-Improvement Club will be held at Old Colony hall Tuesday evening, Nov. 16. Morrison's orchestra.
Mr. Louis H. Bray and Miss May Frances Lewis of Chicago, Ill., were united in marriage a few weeks ago. Mr. Bray is the son of Rev. and Mrs. N. L. Bray of Denver and was popular here among the younger set. He has resided in Chicago, Ill., where he is engaged in the tailoring business over two years.
SELF IMPROVEMENT CLUB

After a very pleasant vacation, the Self-Improvement Club has resumed work for another year. The following officers have been elected: President, Mrs. E. M. Reeves; first vice-president, Mrs. Rodgers; second vice-president, Mrs. Geo. Gross; secretary, Mrs. Alice D. Webb; assistant secretary, Mrs. Vergil Gash; treasurer, Mrs. George Contee; historian and critic, Mrs. Cora Jackson; chairman of Advisory Board, Mrs. Florence Cooper; chairman of Literary Board, Miss Nelsine Howard; chairman of Charity Board, Mrs. Eva Tompkins. The leaders are planning for a busy, prosperous year's work in every department. The club will meet Monday, 25th, with Mrs. Geo. Gross, 2232 Ogden street.
ADVERTISE IN THE STAR AND LOOK PROBREOUS
Even though you may not be prosperous, adopt as far as possible the appearance of prosperity. It is sound capital and will bring good interest in the long run. Shabby-looking people, you may have noticed, always appear apolygetic and can easily be turned down when they are most in need of a helping hand. Keep a brace front. Dame Fortune likes to throw her magic cloak about the shoulders of the man or woman who looks capable of making the best of it.

A Y. W. C. A. Club of colored women and girls was organized at a meeting held in Shorter A. M. E. church, in response to the first call. A second meeting of the Y. W. C. A. Club is to be held Monday evening, Oct. 25th, at Shorter Chapel, Twenty-third and Washington streets, promptly at 8:30 p. m. "I am come that they might have life and that they might have it more abundantly." John 10:10. These words uttered by our Master more than nineteen hundred years ago, and which is the national motto of the Young Women's Christian Association, was the subject of an interesting address by Mrs. I. B. Perkins, vice-president of the Y. W. C. A. Rest and Recreation Rooms at the meeting held for our girls of color on Monday evening.
Mrs. Hendrie, president of the Y. W. C. A. Rest and Recreation Rooms, presided and in an interesting talk stated the object of the meeting, declaring that at the very beginning of the Y. W. C. A. Rest and Recreation Rooms the founders had hoped to advance the interests of all women and that now it looked as if their hopes were about to be realized.
Mrs. Lydia Smith Ward, the former general secretary of the Yates Branch of the Y. W. C. A., Kansas City, Kans. upon request, talked of the advantages and possibilities of the Y. W. C. A. and of the work established for the colored young women and girls of Kansas City, Kans.
Miss Rosalle Venable, general secretary of the Y. W. C. A. Rest and Recreation Rooms, perfected the organization after a unanimous vote of those assembled.
The Rev. A. M. Ward, presiding elder of the Rocky Mountain District, conducted devotional service with Miss Jennie Hicks as chorister and Mrs. Gertrude Ross as organist. There was present a very enthusiastic audience of young women and girls. Twenty-seven of these registered for membership and the outlook is encouraging. The Nominating committee was composed of Mrs. Alice Traverse, Mrs. Rosa Banks, Mrs. Helen Johnson, Mrs. Lizie Froman, Mrs. Josephine Cassell, Miss Parthenia Lyons and Mrs. I. B. Perkins, vice-president Y. W. C. A. Rest and Recreation Rooms. All are invited to the meeting at

MADAME DE NEAL'S SCHOOL OF BEAUTY AND, HAIR CULTURE.
Madame De Neal and Madame Dishan take this opportunity to thank the many customers who have helped make "The De Neal School of Beauty and Hair Culture" a complete success. Just one year ago this month (October) Madame De Neal established in Seattle, Wash., what is known as "De Neal's School of Beauty and Hair Culture," which is located at 1319 East Pine street.
The world is advancing and in this, the twentieth century, women of our race demand that we be conscientious and efficient, in our line of work for them as well as for her white sister. The care and preservation of the hair is, and should be, of vital interest to everyone. Those who are blessed with healthy, thick and luxuriant hair must expect to assiduously practice the things which are best for it, and at the same time avoid carelessness and neglect. We are widening "The De Neal Method" for Beauty Culturist. Madams De Neal has just returned from California, where she had a very successful trip, having established "The De Neal Method" of "Hair Culture" in Los Angeles, Oakland, San Francisco and Portland.
"The De Neal Method" is not simply washing and straightening the hair. Agents must know how to treat the scalp scientifically. After cleansing

the hair and scalp, using Madame De Neal's shampoo powders, apply the "Invigorator," which destroys the little germ that originates from diseases of the scalp. Next, the "Hair Grower," which is a positive remedy for dry, scaly and itchy scalp. It will stop the hair from falling out, promote its growth and make it soft and glossy. The most successful people are those who look ahead, make their plans and are ready to participate in the business revival which is sure to come. "The De Neal Method" of Hair and Scalp Treatment means larger profits to the agents and better satisfied customers. Now is the time to make the best of an opportunity by learning "The De Neal Method," which can be applied to women of the white as well as to the women of our own race. It is a well-known fact that the white colleges do not teach you the practical method of caring for hair of the women of our race. "The De Neal Method" of Scalp Treatment embraces a complete course in the following: Hair dresses and their treatment; the proper method of shampooing, trimming, singing; a scientific method of applying tonics and ointments; the best method of handling your customers; and in fact every subject of interest to the "Hair Culturist" is fully discussed. The agent has the handling of "The De Neal Preparations," which are giving such wonderful results. The "Preparations" are prepared by Madame De Neal from carefully selected ingredients which her twelve years of practical experience has demonstrated the best adapted for the purpose intended. The increase demand for their use, both in our establishment and those of our agents, testify to their efficiency, as we can easily prove from the many letters we are constantly receiving most day from satisfied customers. Let us at least develop the resources and utilize the possibilities we have here at hand. Opportunity is legion, but only a few are accepted and developed. Disabuse your mind of its clutter of "can'ts" and "won't" and fill it with "cans" and wills.
I knock unbidden once at every gate!
If sleeping, wake—if feasting, rise
before
I turn away. It is the hour of fate.
And they who follow me reach every
state
Mortals desire, and conquer every
foe
Save death; but those who doubt or
hesitate,
Condemned to failure, penury and
woe,
Seek me in vain and uselessly implore. I answer not, and I return no more.

ELDER SHEAFE ON RELIGIOUS CREED
Los Angeles Minister Leaves Adventists' Conference.
CHURCH DRAWS COLOR LINE
Militant Race Leader and Biblicist Refuses to Have His Parishioners Submit to Segregation as Outlined by Seventh Day Denomination In Southern California.
By CHARLES ALEXANDER.
Los Angeles, Cal.—Rev. Lewis C. Sheafe, a valued elder of the Seventh Day Adventist denomination, demonstrated his pluck and manly courage recently when he withdrew from the southern California conference of the denomination he has served so long and faithfully on account of its doctrine bearing upon the color line. During the past year Elder Sheafe founded in Los Angeles a splendid church. The members of this church also withdrew from the conference and passed ringing resolutions setting forth the reasons for their action.
The name of the church founded by Rev. Mr. Sheafe is the Berean Seventh Day Adventists' church. Since its severance from the conference it is now known as the Free Seventh Day Adventists' church, with Rev. Lewis C. Sheafe of 1442 West Thirty-fifth street. this city, as pastor.
The action of the Rev. Mr. Sheafe and his members is regarded as an event of great historical importance. The trouble grew out of the fact that Mr. Sheafe and his members could not conscientiously subscribe to certain
A. B.
REV. LWIS G. SHEAFE
sentiments contained in "The Testimonies," volume 9, bearing on the color line. This book is regarded by the elders as inspired writing. Mrs. Ellen G. White, the author, was, according to the elders of the Seventh Day Adventists' church, divinely inspired, and the "Testimonies" serves as an infallible guide to all the believers in this denomination.
Although her work lacks literary merit, she has written some excellent things about the Bible. Her arguments, however, are wanting in orderly arrangement and progressive and logical presentation, and they are especially grievously offensive when treating the color question. Rev. Mr. Sheafe was asked if he believed all of the "Testimonies," and he frankly avowed that he did not and gave his reasons as follows:
"The Testimonies' teaches racial discrimination and does not harmonize with the Bible." We quote: "From Australia, across the broad waters of the Pacific, cautions were sent that every movement must be guarded, that the workers were to make no political speeches and that the mingling of whites and blacks in social equality was by no means to be encouraged. * * * In regard to white and colored people worshiping in the same building, this cannot be followed as a general custom. The best thing will be to provide the colored people with places of worship of their own, in which they can carry on their services by themselves."
This is the doctrine of separation and is diametrically opposed to this author's teaching in her earlier writings. On page 202 of this "sacred" book the author declares that "but for several reasons white men must be chosen as leaders." This means that, however capable, no colored man can lead in this denomination. This, with other sentiments in the "Testimonies," proved more than this heroic body of Christian workers could stand; hence they with drew.
Planning For Presidential Campaign. The various political organizations throughout the country are beginning to lay plans for the presidential campaign to be waged in 1916. The lenders in the several political parties will be guided largely in their immediate future actions by the results of the coming November elections in the state and municipalities. The colored voters, especially the Republicans, will be heard from in no uncertain way because of the bright outlook at this early date for the success of the Republican ticket. A large increase of votes is expected in the states where the colored citizens have hitherto been deprived of their votes. It is in such states, therefore, that the contests be tween the two leading parties will be the severest

“SHOICE FOR STATE LEADER
Man From Missouri Shows Kansas
Folks Hew te Get Results In Organ-
ized ‘Retigious Movements — Makes
Many Desirable Improvements in
Ninth Street Baptist Church.
Lawrence, Kan.—In the ministry
Kansas has its share of strong, able
men, who are battling against sin and
the many evils which they must meet in
the struggle to make the race better.
In the ‘front rank’ of this class of well
trained men is to be found the Rev.
G. N, Jackson, D. D., minister of the
Ninth Street Baptist church in this
town. Like most men who are leaders
in this state, Dr. Jackson {s not a na-
Uve of Kansas, but hails from Mead-
ville, Mo., where he was born May 21,
1869. When he reached school age he
found bis way into the graded schoo!
in the town of his birth. He was con-
sidered a smart boy by bis teacher;
hence he made rapid progress in his
studies,
When but a lad he jolned the Baptist
hurch and at the age of seventeen felt
that he had been called to the work of
| the gospel ministry and entered at once
upon his calling. Step by step he made
his way to the front. Having to work
regularly, his education was retarded
to some extent, but he had declared
that he was going to have an education
y if it took his whole life to get it.
In the ministry in the state be was
recognized by the Jeaders of his de-
nomination. At the age of twenty-five
he entered Western college, Macon.

Mo., where be remained until he od
finished the course of study. He work-
ed during the week and served the
Baptist church at Lathrop and Hamll-
ton om Sunday. He graduated from
the Western college with bonors, re-
ceiving the degree of B. 8. D. and B.
8 T. in 1900. His diplomas» were
from the literary and theological de-
partments.
Recognizing his “ability and worth
and his knowledge of the Bible, West.
ern college conferred on him the hon:
orary degree of doctor of divinity.
Dr. Jackson bas not been without
honors in his own country, because
the Baptist convention of Missouri
honored bim by making him the corre-
sponding secretary of the convention,
which position he held for seven years
During his pastoral work in Missouri
he wap in-charge of Baptist churches
in Loulstana, Fulton and Palmyra.
For four years be was the moderator
of the Mount Carmel Baptist associa:
tion, which has become the leading
association tn the atate.
In all good movements for racial ad-
vancement, as far as his time permits.
te Is an ardeift worker. As a member
of the United Brothers of Friendship,
a benvrolent organization, he has been
one of the leading spirits. He served
as grand secretary for four years. In
1910 he was called to the pastorate of
the Ninth Street Baptist church tn
Lawrence and has made wonderful
progress. During bis stay in this city
he has put 96.000 worth of improve-
ménts on the church, making it one of
the best churches in Kansas. It has a
large membership. It may be said to
his credit that the improvements have
all been paid for and there is not a
mortgage hanging over the church
property.
It is not surprising that the Kaw
Valley Baptist association should have
placed this leader at the bead by elect
ing him moderator four years ago. In
this capacity he is doing an excellent
work, It 1s one of the leading Baptist
organizations in the state and has a
large membership. In the association
are to be found some of the best edu-
cated men tn the state. ¥
Recently he entertained the Baptist
state’ convention at the Ninth Street
church, and ft was indeed the best meet:
tng yet held in the history of the con:
¥ention, All departments of the church
are well organized. Dr. Jackson ts o
great organizer and financier. He tx
connervative. energetic and a Christian
entleman, Fle lives in the hearts of
fils people and has many friends alo
