Colored Youth Is Prize Orator. Mt. Vernon, N. Y.—Charles S. Morris, the young 16-year old boy orator and son of the famous Dr. Charles S. Morris of Norfolk, Va., who was sent by the faculty of the Wilson academy, Nyack, N. J. where he is the only Colored student to Mt. Vernon high school recently to enter the preliminary oratorical contest under the auspices of the Hamilton college. N ne white students representing as many high schools sought to win the first prize, which was $20 in gold. Subject for the contest, "A plea for Cuba." Each speaker was allotted five minutes. By the unanimous decision of the judges, young Morris was given the first prize. Judges were Rev. Robert G. McGregor, Hon. H. Dorsey Spencer and Conklin Mann of New York. On May 13 young Morris will enter the final contest at Hamilton college, Clinton N. Y., to speak against nine other other white prize winners for the interacademic championship of New York state. Southerners Tire of Lynch Practices Mobile, Ala—An organization to be known as the New Association of Southern Church Colleges has been formed in Alabama for the purpose of conducting an educational campaign against lynching in the south The association is composed of 18 southern institutions of learning, and its president is Dr. C. M. Bishop of the Texas Presbyterian college. Forty Southern schools have signified their desire to aid in carrying on the purpose of the new association. This is a move in the right direction, which will accomplish great good. No doubt the south feels very keenly the disgrace heaped upon it by the practice of the mobs, which take away the lives of human being whether guilty or innocent. Memphis, Tenn.,—A. H. Landis (white), a switchman, 285 Maryland avenue, was fin ed $25 in the city court last week on a charge of assault and battery on a 7-year-old race girl. The child testified that Landis tried to lure her into a vacant house and seized hold of her. Landis denied this, declaring that he was innocent of the charge against him. Acting Judge Neely stated: "This is a puzzling case, and I don't hold you entirely blameless, so I am going to fine you $25" Landis paid the fine. ★ Halifax, N. S.,—A delegation of some forty citizens, both Race men and whites, waited on the provincial government today in opposition to the picture play. "The Birth of a Nation," being exhibited in Halifax at the Academy of Music. Among those who spoke in opposition to the picture were Rev. M. B. Puryear, Rev. J. P. Stephens and Rev. Charles Allison, M. F. Jemmott, Rev. Canon Vernon and P. F. Moriarity. They stated that they looked upon the picture as objectionable and one that is not in the best interests of the Colored citizens nor of the citizens in general. They claimed that the picture did not portray history as it was, and wherever they were shown it had caused hard feelings, and had been an incentive to race riots at Boston and Philadelphia. A similar drama, called the Clansman, had been prohibited at Halifax some years ago. The play was only on a par with the Johnson-Jeffries picture, which were not allowed to be shown in Halifax because of the intense racial feeling that they would create. They claimed that the picture would tend to prejudice in the minds of the friends of the Colored Race against a defenseless minority of the citizens. Another point taken was the presence of so many soldiers now in Halifax. The advance representative of the picture play explained the nature of the picture and claimed that there was nothing objectionable in them, and also that they had been shown in many cities without any harmful results. Mr. C. C. Blackadar, president of the Academy of Music, was present at the interview. At its conclusion, Mr. Blackadar said he had listened attentively to the earnest manner in which the delegates presented their case. He said he had given a good deal of consideration to the matter, and had decided that in the interest of good feeling in the community that the pictures should not be shown, and he had instructed the manager of the Academy to that effect. Paris France.—Bob Scanlon former American prize fighter now a naturalized citizen of France, who has shown remarkable valor in the fighting around Verdun, was wounded last week when a fragrant of a shell pierced his hand. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, MAY 20, 1916 WHAT IT MEANS TO FIGHT BACK. WHAT IT MEANS TO FIGHT BACK. Judge Dyer's Decision In Segregation Case Reproduced by Special Request of Poro College, St. Louis The segregation ordinances, which were passed by a popular vote of the people of St. Louis, Mo. on Feb. 29, last were virtually killed by a decision handed down by Judge D. P. Dyer in the United States court there. A large number of Colored people, both men and women were present, and when the decision was rendered a sigh of relief was manifested. The attorneys for the plaintiff made a strong appeal against the ordinance, led by Col. W. H. Blodgett, while Associate City Counselor Paul Griffin appeared for the city. Judge Dyer's Decision. In the most eloquent language Judge Dyer handed down the following decision: The Court: "I have listened with much interest to all that has been said. The debate has taken a very wide range. Practically there is but one legal question before the Court for decision, and that question is the validity of the two ordinances in question. That being true, it is also true, as counsel has said, that the Court's feelings personally should have nothing to do with determining this one question. Judges are very much like other people. They all try to do right and they try to administer justice. "Nine years ago on this bench I took an oath. One of its provisions was 'that you solemnly swear that you will administer justice to the rich and poor alike.' I have tried hard to live up to the obligation of that oath. I know I have made many mistakes and have fallen far short of what probably would be counted a learned judge, but I have tried to do justice between man and man. "Allusion has been made by counsel here to the fact that I have lived in this state a long time. For more than seventy years I have resided within sixty miles of where I sit today. My father came to this state from old Virginia where I was born, and settled in Lincoln county in 1841. He was the owner of Negroes. I was raised with Negroes but as God is my judge I have tried always all my life to be just to them, and God giving me help I will continue so to the end. "I have heard all this talk about intermarriage and miscegenation and all of that fifty years ago. Arguments were then made for the purpose of scaring men out of their wits by an appeal to their prejudices. These arguments, if they may be called such, were made when the question of emancipation was up, it was the contention then that ultimately it would lead to intermarriage between the races. I believed it would not do anything of the kind then, and believe so now. Negroes do not ask for equality; whites do not ask for it; the Negroes only ask to have the same privileges as others have, the same rights under the law as others have. The plaintiffs are Negroes born in the United States; they are taxpayers of the city of St. Louis by virtue of which they are entitled under the constitution to the same legal rights as any white, native, or any foreign born naturalized citizen of the United States. I would not be doing my duty if I hesitated to deal out equal justice to every one alike. "These ordinances I have heretofore considered. As a citizen I examined them with care, and as a citizen I cast my vote against them, and in my judgment, not formed particularly today, but formed before I exercised my right to vote, I believe that these ordinances are void and illegal and that the police power claimed here cannot deprive a man of using the money made by the sweat of his brow in buying property wherever the property owner will sell it, and, when he does buy it, he has a right, under the constitution and the laws of the United States, to occupy it as long as he obeys the law, and as long as the property is not made a nuisance. Everybody knows, we all know and regret it that not only among Negroes, but among white people there are communities which are no credit to the localities in which they exist, but I know some of the most reputable men that are to be found in this city among the colored people. I speak of that because of the argument made here about the police power being sufficient to deprive a man of his property, deprive a man of his earnings and deprive him of the bread that he makes. I have heard that before, it did not affect me then and it does not affect me now, "I shall grant here a temporary injunction restraining the enforcement of these ordinances, and I only say temporary for the reason that it has been stated that there is a case involving a like question now before the Supreme Court of the United States "As I said in the beginning, knowing this case was coming I wrote to the clerk of the Supreme Court for a copy of INDIANA WHITES ORDER RAGE FAMILIES TO MOVE. The Latter Refuse—Await Outcome. Indiana Harbor, Ind., There is no diminution of the feeling that prevails on Grape vine street in regard to the presence there of what many of the residents regard as an undesirsble factor. On Monday evening of this week, a delegation of about fifty young men and women went to the house occupied by the Race family in question 3518 Grapevine street and told them that they were not desired in that locality and that it might be well for them if they depart peaceably without necessitating another call. The callers gave them five days to pack up and get out. The report is that the visit has incited the indignation of the Colored people throughout the city and that they intend to resent any interference with what they call their rights as peaceable citizens. Yesterday another family of Race people moved into the same cottage and among the number were four big men who have the appearance of being able to put up a good, stiff resistance. Houston, Tex.—Two white men fought and one shot when Bert Buckler, a swichman, was severely wounded by Bert Meenan in a quarrel over a race woman who was a servant in the Buckler home. Buckler said that he discovered Meenan hanging around the servant's room for three days. Hempstead, Texas.—Tom Dickson, a 22 year old Race man, was taken from jail where he was confined and nung in the public square by a mob of southern crackers because a white girl said he was walking behind her. the record in the case pending there, and of the briefs filed by counsel in the case. I have examined that record, and I have examined it in the light of these ordinances and I find a very great difference between the ordinance before the Supreme Court and the ordinances here, but being desirous of not taking any action on issues on which the Supreme Court is to pase, and whose decision it is my duty and the duty of every other citizen of the United States to acquiesce in, I will make this injunction temporary; otherwise but for the pendency of that case I would make it permanent. "The order will be that these injunctions as prayed for in these bills will be granted, a continuing order under the further order of this Court." State historian & Not used history Society FIVE CENTS A COPY. FELLOWS THRILL SPECTATORS. Annual Sermon a Success. Band Did Fine. Sunday afternoon the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows of America completely thrilled the audience in the church and the spectators along the streets in their well conducted march to and from Shorter's Church. Led by Queen City Band of 14 pieces which played its best since the organization and with their popular and soldier like drum major, Mr. Curtis M. Harris in his new uniform created a most profound impression which gave vent to outbursts of applause all along the line of march. Every band member was on the alert and the crowd cheered, greeted and admired them as they made their turns at the corners. The principals upon the program were L. M. Stamps, chairman, with Mrs. Dan H. Williams of Household of Ruth No. 376, as Mistress of Ceremonies and Geo. S. Contee, as the official proclaimer of the Anniversary sermon. Prayer by W. S. Stewart, anthem by choir, scripture reading was followed by an excellent paper from master Roy Robinson of Juveniles, 871. An address was delivered with telling effect by Mrs Florence L. Walton, Household of Ruth No. 4130. Before the masterly and eloquent address of philosophy, wisdom and experience was given by our youngest Noble Grand of Rocky Mt. Lodge, Oglesvie Lawson, the choir sang a beautiful selection, after which Mr. Bell delivered a very excellent sermon full of simplicity and old truths undeniable. Our old time hymn "God be with you till we meet again" closed the program. At the hall so well did the brothers do that a large spontaneous outburst of enthusiasm and feeling was given O. Lawson and the order by singing, "They're jolly Odd Fellows." Thus ended the Odd Fellows great day. "The Birth of a Nation," vicious photoplay, has returned to Detroit, Los Angeles and Portland "for another long run," it is announced. Many cities and towns of the country, North and South and two states, Ohio and Kansas, have barred the miserable film. In Chicago, however, it runs right along, and has for many months, under the protecting wing of a TEMFORARY injunction which our people of that city "refuse to as much as raise a hand" against, and Chicago has three or four race papers and many prominent members of the race.

Over, pastor of Zion, favored us with one of his soul-stirring sermons at 3 p. m. The membership of Central was much encouraged by his sermon. We are very grateful also to the loyal membership of Zion Baptist church, who gave us a purse of $25.00 to be applied to our new building fund. We are also very thankful to our membership and friends who so laoyally aided us in raising the sum of $744.12 for the new structure. Each of our auxiliaries proved loyal to the cause. The Sunday School took the lead in raising and turning over to the church $300.00. There are several applicants for the responsibility of putting in windows in the new church. The musical given by Mrs. L. Turner on the 11th inst. was a success. Mrs. M. A. Elliston has been very busy since her lecture at Central on the 5th. The pastor, Rev. P. J.

Our Mothers' Day program was fully up to our expectation and hope. Notwithstanding the threatening weather, there was a large and interested congregation which contained many mothers who were seated in the reserved section in the center of the church. It was a most touching service. The singing of the junior choir thrilled every person in the house, and was brought to a climax by the solo work of Miss Odessa McCullough and Miss Naomi Brown, whose fresh and sympathetic voices moved the audience to tears. The pastor's sermon on "Motherhood" gave a fitting close to a very tender season of worship. Enthusiastic preparations are being made for the May Festival to be held on the evenings of the 24th, 25th and 26th of this month. Three interesting programs will be rendered: "Living Pictures," beautifulified by dissolving stereopticon lights; a "Tom Thumb Wedding"; and an intensely interesting social drama, "East Lynne." In connection will be held a beautiful bazaar. The first Sunday in June is set apart as our special offering day. Zion's loyal members and friends are expected to respond with an unusual expression of their sense of obligation. On Sunday, the 28th, Memorial Day services will be held. The pastor will preach to those who have borne the nation's arms. All veterans of the army and navy are invited to be present.

The score was 29 to 2, being almost the same as the score by which the bigger boys beat the same team a week before. Mothers' Day program was very interesting last Sunday afternoon. The boys had a program of their own at the 2:30 meeting, which was conducted by Mr. Will Parks. The program of the men's meeting was very touching and was made all the more so by the presence of some of the mothers of the men. Rev. Mr. Sawyer, the new pastor of the Scott M. E. church, will speak at the men's meeting next Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock. All will be welcome. Y. W. C. A. NOTES.

New York.—The first meeting in connection with "health week" in this city was held on Monday, May 1, in the lecture room of the board of health, Centre and Walker streets. The audience was composed of the colored physicians of Greater New York, and the principal speaker was Dr. Haven Emerson, commissioner of health, who welcomed the physicians. He invited them to partake more liberally of the co-operation of the department of health, which extends to them aid in the diagnosis of difficult cases and in their efforts to maintain the ethics of the medical profession. "The colored people in rural districts have no higher death rate than that among other races," said Commissioner Emerson, "but in the congested cities their death rate is almost twice that of the whites because as yet the colored people have not learned how to live in cities. The Jews, for instance, are not an agricultural people. They have been living in cities for centuries and through selection and other means have become adapted to city life. Their death rate is lower than that of any other city group, and this is particularly true of deaths from tuberculosis, the most dreaded disease of the city." Dr. William H. Guilfoy, registrar of the bureau of records, congratulated the colored physicians on the small number of physicians of the race who had to be disciplined for failure to report promptly on births and deaths. Dr. John J. Cronin, director of the bureau of child hygiene, spoke of the large number of colored babies who died before their first birthday through negligence of midwives and the failure of mothers to wean their offspring at the expiration of the first year. "The milk stations of the department of health are intended to supplement the work of the private physicians," said Dr. Cronin, "not to serve as a substitute for this service. The nurse in the station will teach the mother how to use the proper formula for milk suited to the peculiar case of her baby. The milk station also serves as an agency through which certain reliable milk companies may dispose of their officially certified Grade A milk, which is especially adapted for infant food." Among those present were Drs. Hoage, Nurse, Reed, Taylor, Williams, Robbins, Graves, Baxter, Thorpe, St. John, several Brooklyn and Jersey City physicians and E. K. Jones of the National Urban league. The other speakers were Dr. Charles Boldman, director of bureau of health education, and Dr. Nichols of the bureau of preventable diseases. The colored physicians who attended the meeting seemed greatly impressed with the speakers. KEEP YOUR SKIN CLEAR AND HEALTHY.

Shepard at Durham, N. C. FOUNDER OF IDEAL SCHOOL How the National Training School Endeavors to Meet the Needs of the Masses Through Groups of Trained Leaders—Stands For Literary Excellence and Industrial Superiority. By N. BARNETT DODSON. Among the many institutions for normal, industrial or higher education for the colored people of the country the National Training school, Durham, N. C., of which Dr. James E. Shepard is the president, occupies a conspicuous place. The work of the institution for the school year of 1916 has registered a high mark of efficiency. The accommodations for students and the splendid courses of study are salient features of the school which have given it a nation wide influence. To the people of North Carolina and the south generally the institution is valued as it were a pearl of great price. This is as it should be, for we should never expect to get the best results from our business, religious or educational institutions unless we conduct them on a high plane of efficiency and with an eye single to the public good. In the development of the National Training school Dr. Shepard has advanced many original and construc- A. B. DR. JAMES R. SHEPARD. five ideas which time and experience have proved to be of great benefit, not only to his school alone, but to educators and educational institutions in many other sections of the country. In founding and conducting this school on a sound business basis so successfully in Durham Dr. Shepard has registered his name among the foremost educators of America. For the future he aims to have a thorough teacher training course especially adapted to the needs of the rural teacher. A bureau of investigation to study the social, moral, physical and economic condition of the colored people in order to more wisely co-operate with organized bodies and civic authorities in advancing the cause of education and general uplift movements among our people is another feature of work which Dr. Shepard proposes to develop. The board of trustees has made a budget of $321,000 to be used for the following purposes: For the endowment fund, $250,000; for administration building and class rooms, $36,000; for dormitories, $20,000, and for a central heating and water plant, $15,000. The board says: "Large schools cannot do the real constructive work absolutely needed to develop a young race; hence if a particular group of well selected persons are reached and trained and sent out to reach and train others it is a vast saving of time and money. The prime aim is to lift the race into racial consciousness, thus helping it to come into its own, and by serving and lifting itself it will also serve and materially aid the state and the nation." The institution is supported entirely by free will offerings. The monthly expenses are $1,500. Notwithstanding this large amount which Dr. Shepard has to raise each month, he has managed thus far in these hard times to keep the school going. The institution covers a field peculiarly its own and plans to do the work covered by no other school. In self government, Drift and singleness of purpose the student body takes high rank. Briefly the National Training school stands for directing the so called emotionalism of the Negro race into practical working channels, making it a means of uplift instead of destruction; it stands for the training of the 30,000 or more of our ministers, who largely constitute leadership of the race, by giving every day living workable ideas and through them reach over 10,000,000 members of our race in America; it stands for the training of settlement workers, the training of leaders in special lines of work so that each person sent out will have a direct bearing and influence upon hundreds of others, and, finally, it stands for literary excellence and industrial superiority.

The Lafayette theater in New York has arranged its program for the part it is to take in the Shakespeare tercentenary celebration, and as a precursor of the series which it will render a performance was given at the theater on Sunday evening, April 2, at which Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree, the great English actor-manager, was a special guest. He was accompanied by his daughter, Miss Iris Tree, and Mrs. Patrick Campbell. The box occupied by the noted actor and his party was decorated with red, white and blue lights, offset by a British and an American flag. The party received a warm welcome from the audience on entering the box especially reserved for them. The orchestra played "God Save the King" in recognition of Sir Herbert, who afterward delivered an address, which was greeted with loud applause. In the course of his remarks Mr. Tree in part said: "We are all of us celebrating the tercentenary of him who was probably the greatest man that ever wrote or spoke our common language.

O'er in states unborn and accents yet unknown? "Only Shakespeare could have thought of this, and here is Shakespeare himself being 'acted o'er' by all the races of the globe." Mr. Tree then discussed the character of Othello, whom he characterized as the greatest gentleman Shakespeare ever drew—"not only a gentleman, but a gentle man," he said. Throughout his talk the audience, which crowded the theater, listened attentively. When he had finished Edward Sterling Wright, who will play the title role in "Othello," read the accusation scene from the drama. It had been planned to present an act from the play in costume, but the Sunday law made this impossible, and Mr. Wright appeared in ordinary clothes. Across the footlights, leaning on the rail of the box, the actor who had played the part before kings listened to the reading of lines by the comparatively unknown actor whose color was that of the Moor. board For Ann" JUNE 15th OLDEN BROS.

The election is over and Mayor Speer is at the wheel of Denver's city government. Nisbet and his followers have been relegated to the rear. Besides, the election of Robert W. Speer to the mayoralty did not enhance the gubernatorial chances of Gov. Geo. Carlson. Mr. Speer's cabinet of able and wisely selected men will assist him in bringing back property to Denver. How does this election affect Negroes and what are and will be the after effects? This election proved to the world, and especially to Mayor Speer, that the majority of the Negroes of Denver worked and labored hard for his success. It proved that the Negroes' manhood when properly tested by fire and suffering will readily respond for its protection. Birth of Nation Nisbet met an inglorious defeat; also the "black and white Jim Crowers." On the other hand this campaign has opened up avenues of friendly disposition among the bosses toward the Negro. The campaign rally started when Commissioners Sharpley and Pitcher made their first appointments of color, and kept cultivating Negroes' friendship by just recognition. The Five Points Club did yoemen service in thoroly organizing favorable sentiment. The victory is so large that everybody should get his or her share. No one person, paper or organization can be legitimately given all the credit it for the solid Negro vote given to Mr. Speer and his plan. It took all the Negroes to speak out, which they did in thunderous tones. Our association with the business men of Denver has brought forward many new favorable conditions in our commercial and industrial life. The political situation has developed the need of an organization wherein the Negro housewives can play a conspicuous part in making certain requests not only for young girls, widowed women, but for deserving persons who want to work but are unable to get it. Women, why let men do your thinking along this line when you can do it yourselves? Everybody listens to organizations. Why not have a juvenile officer, a charity representative, and the like? O. women of Denver, your time is now. Look after your own business. If you organize you can get what you deserve. Denver is too large and prosperous for our women to be held back under the single leadership of one or two women who merely want to control you for selfish purposes. Organize a Housewives' League. Get busy. The situation developed that if a true, honest, self respecting, intelligent, manly Negro would cast his fortunes with the party of that faith, he would get out for the race in benefits in the same proportional degree, according to the efforts put forth for success and according to the strength represented. There was a voluntary disposition on the part of the real leaders to give the Negro every reasonable consideration, even to share in proportion with all the rest. In that connection we are glad to recall the jobs given our people in the business life. But aside from the politics, there developed this situation, that many business men could and would employ more Negro labor if means were made possible whereby they could get them when wanted. As it is, they are compelled to stop their business and run all over town and hunt a colored man to hire, and then they do not know the kind they are employing. We have experienced these things in the last few weeks. Applications have come to us for good, reliable colored chauffeurs; places for at least twelve soda dispensers, first class and reliable. Nearly all the down town drug stores have put in Negro labor since the Scholtz strike. Many of the old boys who left have returned to go to their old jobs. A grocer in Five Points now wants a first class solicitor, reliable and honest, and will use colored help from clerks down if his business among colored will justify. A soda dispense is wanted on East Colfax Ave. at drug store; this has been open for ten days. Unreliable help has been furnished to many of the new place and we fear that unless the Negro business people get together and organize to meet this increasing demand. $2.00 1.00 .50 in rate, all subscriptions must be paid all.

At the postoffice in the city of Denver, we will suffer to lose all we have. In order to meet this growing demand and the encouragement of it, The Star is calling for a meeting of the Negro business and professional men of good standing who will first look after the race's interest, and then politics afterwards, to meet Tuesday night at the Colored American Loan & Realty Co. office on 21st St. Every business man of standing is invited to come and assist in laying plans for a commercial organization to handle the Negroes' industrial and commercial problems. This is one of the greatest events the election has opened up, that the business Negro must provide work for the Negro workers. With some of our good women looking after our civic and social welfare, the other part to look after the housewives' interests, and our ministers of the gospel, our religious well being, why should we business and professional men not look after our industrial and commercial duty for the race? This invitation includes business women also. SO THAT ALL MAY KNOW To Whom it May Concern: Upon the request of the Civil Service Commission, in order that the complainants and others may know, The Denver Star cheerfully publishes the following facts, to-wit, concerning the Masonic entertainment: That the political advertising on the poster for the Masonic entertainment, on which poster was also the name "E. C. Tumlin, Chairman," was placed on such poster without the knowledge or consent of Mr. Tumlin; that he neither saw, knew of, nor authorized, nor had anything whatever to do with the putting of the matter about politics on the poster; that I promised to put a local advertisement on said poster, and instead I arbitrarily, without thinking or having any intention to harm him in any way, but without consulting him, placed thereon the political advertisement, for which action I apologize to him now so that all may know, both his friends and enemies. This statement is made without the knowledge of Mr. Tumlin, whom we have not seen, but upon the sole responsibility of the manager of the Star, Mr. Geo. G. Ross, who takes full responsibility for the same. In our zeal to force down Nisbet's insults against our race, we overstepped our bounds and a certain "colored" man in business and others were kind, enough and reported our error, as the action of Mr. Tumlin, to the Civil Service Commission, hence the above. We hope this closes the incident, for we are certainly glad that Nisbet has been rebuked and VICTOR AND CRIPPLE CREEK. Mr. William Best, Grand Chancellor of K. of P., spent the week with Mr. A. H.

MANNED BY ABLE FACULTY. Brief Account of Progress Made at an Agricultural and Industrial Institution Under the Supervision of Professor William J. Hale—Trains Young Men and Women For Leadership. Nashville, Tenn. — The Agricultural and Industrial State Normal college in this city for the training of young men and women stands second to none in the country. While it is young in many respects, it has taken its place among the colleges of the country under the direction of one of the foremost educators of the race in the person of Professor William J. Hale, who believes in doing things well and who is doing a great work here. The school is not quite four years old, but it is doing the work of a college many years its senior. It is having a successful career, because the board of education was fortunate in securing the services of a man who A. E. knew school work and knew well how to direct such an institution along all lines. The school has a good, strong faculty, which works in harmony with Professor Hale. The teachers are energetic and make each minute count. Professor Hale has the confidence of the best people of both races in the work of the school. There has been much stress put on domestic science the past year, giving this department high rank in efficiency. At the head of this department is an expert who has had the benefit of practical training as well as of theory in the best institutions of the country. Special attention is paid to agriculture, and the school farm is said to be one of the best in the country. The young men are taking to farming, and may it be said that there are some of the young women who are making a See The Th "EAST Under the auspices of the ZION BAPT Friday Evening See The Thrilling Drama "EAST LYNNE" Under the auspices of the Church Aid Society, at ZION BAPTIST CHURCH Friday Evening, May 26, 1916 CAST OF CHARACTERS.

Richard retains as counsel Archibald Carlyle, a rising young lawyer. Mr Carlyle has just married Lady Isabel, the daughter of an Earl, who is in impoverished circumstances. After the marriage Lady Isabel's jealousy is wrought upon by the clandestine interviews between Barbara Hare, Richard's sister, and her husband, Archibald Carlyle. The interviews are merely concerning the defense of Richard in the murder trial; but Lady Isabel, in ignorance of this, misconstrues their purpose, and being goaded on by her lover, Sir Francis Levison, consents to an elopement with the latter. A few years pass, and Archibald Carlyle has secured a divorce from his wife and marries Barbara Hare. In the meantime Lady Isabel, being badly treated by Sir Francis, leaves him, he having neglected to keep his promise and make her his wife). She learns of the serious illness of her little son, who is at the home of his father, Archibald Carlyle, and the latter's new wife, and determines to apply for the position of nurse for the little one that has been advertised for, so she can be by the bedside of her boy in his last hours. Disguising herself as "Madam Vine," she secures the position, but overcome by the death-bed scene of her boy, she throws off her disguise and reveals herself to him as his mother. She is discovered by Joyce, a former lady-maid of hers, but Joyce consents to keep her secret. It leaks out, however.

HALE. speciality of agriculture so as to be of special assistance to their community. As to Professor Hale, it has been said many times by numerous competent judges that the state board of education is extremely fortunate in securing the services of a man such as he has proved to be. He is known by probably more people of his race engaged in the teaching profession than any other in Tennessee and personally liked and admired by them all. He has been able to interest almost every schoolteacher, minister and leader of the Negro race in the state school. This interest has never waned, and today it is positively a fact that more Negroes throughout the state are directly in touch with the A. and I. normal and are possessed more with the idea that it is "their" school than any other of the large number of educational institutions for colored people in Tennessee. Professor Hale came up from the ranks, having been a teacher for many years. He has been district schoolteacher and high school principal. He has been institute instructor for county and state. He possesses unusual executive ability, has a knack of getting things done, and this is what has made for him success. As an evidence of what is here stated the following words of the late Dr. Booker T. Washington, the greatest of all industrial educators, is given. He said, "There is no parallel case to the great progress of such a school as has been accomplished by President Hale in so short a time." The extensive acquaintance of President Hale with the colored teachers and leaders throughout the state has served him exceptionally well in the organization of what is now conceded the largest and most successful summer school for teachers conducted anywhere in the entire country, and during the summer of 1914 nearly 1,000 colored teachers from over the state were brought to the A. and L. normal to engage in this work. It was by far the largest body of teachers ever assembled together in school session to study modern methods of teaching. The summer term is of six weeks' duration, and the work was conducted by President Hale, who was assisted by the regular normal faculty, all experts, together with a number of special instructors. OPEN DOOR FOR CHILDREN National League Offers Scholarships to School Lads and Lasses. Through a responsible local organization in New York the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes has been requested to recommend two worthy young colored boys or girls for scholarships of $150 each for the school year 1916-17. These scholarships are intended for children who have become eligible for working papers and who would be compelled to give up their school work in order to supplement the earnings of their parents or guardians. Payments for these scholarships will be made in weekly installments to the children themselves just as though wages to this amount were received for employment. At the same time the children will be able to pursue some selected course of training that will fit them better for their life's work. Applications for these scholarships, made only by children whose school records have been satisfactory, may be filled with Eugene Kinckle Jones, executive secretary of the National Urban League, 2303 Seventh avenue, New York.

Friedman gave to the Negro Sunday night a great lesson of economics, social science ripened by hard experience, and observation associated with an intellectual treat such as he alone is capable of giving. He was so big and broad, so many and considerate, yet not pedantic nor austere, for he came to minister unto us for our good. His thought-filled, soulful, enthusiastic address was eagerly grasped and seized upon by the audience. Rabbi Friedman holds the world in his hand and judges the results of the different races' affiliations, sufferings, progress and advancement. He neither flattered nor withheld from the Negro his due, but ever impressing service and patience with manliness at all times, places, and before all people. The kind of manliness which comes from a well-performed duty, pregnant with rights which men suffer and die for. The program was fine and in two months another meeting will be held.

Under this the blushing Miss Miller was placed and as she gently rocked the cradle the many beautiful presents, given by her friends, showered all around her. The serving table was presided over by Mesdames Audrey Lindsey, Moiss and Sanford Caldwell.

Best Seller DILIGENT WORKER AMONG ALLEN LEAGUE SOCIETIES Dr. J. C. Caldwell Mentioned For Higher Post In A. M. E. Church. Philadelphia.—Among the prominently mentioned for the episcopacy in the A. M. E. church at the general conference being held in Philadelphia from May 1 to 21, inclusive, is Dr. J. C. Caldwell, general secretary of the Allen Christian Endeavor league and field secretary of Christian Endeavor work among colored people in the south. Dr. Caldwell is an experienced Christian worker and is well qualified to fill any position in the gift of the denomination. He finished the public and manual training schools at Philadelphia and also the National School of Oratory and Elocution with great credit. He also completed his literary training at Wilberforce and later graduated from the Payne Theological seminary. Dr. Caldwell was a successful pastor in Missouri for a number of years. [Name] REV. J. C. CALDWELL, D. D. having joined the Missouri conference soon after completing his education, and it was from that state that he was elected by the general conference at Norfolk, Va., a few years ago as secretary of the young people's work, which has grown under his leadership to more than 4,000 societies and to a membership of approximately 150,000. The department prints its own literature for the benefit of the young people and also publishes an eight page paper that has a wide circulation and influence in the church. He has traveled from the Atlantic to the Pacific and from the gulf to the great lakes in the discharge of his duties and is an honored representative on all the programs of the International and World's Christian Endeavor conventions, being a member of the Field Workers' union, which meets every two years at Sagamore Beach. He is the only colored member of that body. He is also a life trustee of the United Society of Christian Endeavor and other similar movements. The young people's congress which was held at Atlanta was manned and controlled by Dr. Cahwell and his co-worker, Ira T. Bryant, and was an epochal event in the history of the denomination and of the young manhood and young womanhood of the race. The friends of the general secretary are much gratified that he is so favorably mentioned for the episcopacy. New Jersey Republicans Elect Cozart At the recent primary elections held in Trenton, N. J., William Cozart was elected as one of the delegates to the national Republican convention, to be held in Chicago in June. Mr. Cozart defeated his opponent by a vote of 250. The colored Republicans of the state are showing great interest in the com- ing presidential campaign.

MRS. DORCAS WATSON, PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE CONSTITUTION Submitted by the City Federation of Colorado Springs. Sec. 3, Article 1, to read as follows: The recording secretary shall record all the proceedings of the Federation and Executive Board, be the custodian of its records, roll call, and all official papers except correspondence, and make all orders when advised by the president or executive board. Sec. 4, Article 1.

In cooperation with the president, she shall issue the official call for each annual meeting. She shall be a member of the credential committee. The treasurer shall receive all annual dues and monies due the Federation and expend the same upon an order signed by the president and recording secretary, or when ordered by the executive board. She shall send to the recording and corresponding secretary correct lists of all clubs having paid their annual dues.

It shall hold an annual meeting not later than April 15, and on the day preceding the meeting of the Federation, at the call of the president or chairman of the board. The executive board shall consist of the officers of the federation and the presidents of clubs. Seven members shall constitute a quorum. Section 2. Article III. The chairman of the program committee shall consult the president and the members of her committee, also the president of each City Federation, notifying them of the material or information required of them.

"The funds of the Federation shall be deposited in a national bank in the city in which the treasurer lives, in the name of the State Federation.

NOTICE The following letter, received by the chairman of the Executive Board of the State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, is explanatory of the situation as to the securing of rates to the annual meeting, June 13-15, at Colorado Springs: Mrs. E. E. Braxton, Chairman of Executive Board. Your application of May 5th for reduced rates, account the annual meeting of the State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs of Colorado, was pre- sented to the members of the Colorado Terminal Lines Association meeting, held this afternoon, and I regret to advise that the members individually expressed themselves as being disinclined to make any reduced fares for this occasion, the estimated attendance not being great enough to warrant it. The regular 15-day round-trip fares you could take advantage of, inasmuch as they are always in effect, and open to everybody every day. These 15-day fares are 90 per cent of double the one way fare, and will therefore save you 10 per cent. Yours very truly, H. E. LePERT, Agent THRIFTY BUSINESS MAN AND RELIGIOUS LEADER Rise of Rev. Dr. Thomas H. B. Walker of Palatka, Fla. Palatka, Fla.—Palatka justly claims one of the most energetic and useful men of the race in the person of the Rev. Dr. Thomas H. B. Walker, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church and a general all round Christian worker. He is yet very young in age, but the amount of work he has done puts him in the class of a veteran. As a minister of the gospel he has served the largest charges in the state, rendering good and efficient service. As a preacher he stands second to none in the state. His work has largely been in the Florida and South Florida conferences of the Methodist Episcopal church. Because of his work and worth to the church and state his conference selected him as the head of the delegations to the general conference of the Methodist Episcopal church in Saratoga, N. Y. As a writer and author he takes his place among the best. He has turned out several books. "The Unknown Man," "Revelation and Epic," "The President of Liberia," "Bobby, the Victorious Preacher," and several others have taken their place as literary standards. While others are writing photo plays and putting them on canvas Dr. Walker is as busy writing about the Negro and throwing his progress on canvas. He is showing to the world the real progress made by the Negro race from slavery to the present time, and in this he is rendering a great service to the race and helping to make sentiment for it. "Down In Dixie" is the subject of a play which is now being thrown on canvas and shows the wonderful organic forces at work in the southland for racial development. This has been witnessed by thousands of people. It deals with real life among our people in business, in school, in church and in societies, pleading at the bar, preaching from the sacred rostrum and struggling to get a foothold on the earth. Dr. Walker is mindful of the fact that slavery once existed in this country and that the race has only been free about fifty years; hence he brings before the people the great emancipator, Abraham Lincoln. Then he shows some of the men who have made good in life, some ex-slaves and sons and daughters of slaves. His name is perhaps known better to the public as the founder of the St. Joseph Aid society, an organization that is but eighteen years old, yet has a membership of 65,000. It pays out annually about $250,000 to its members who become sick and to the widows and orphans of deceased members. Through his preaching many have been brought into the church. Then through his doctrine of self help, industry, honesty and reliability many young people have been led into the buying of homes and beautifying them. He is actually a product of the doctrine he preaches. In Jacksonville, where lives his family, he owns some good real estate, and his home is one of the prettiest and finest owned by any member of the race. With a desire to reach the unreached and to help his race to higher things, Dr. Walker is forging to the front and is daily on the firing line of racial effort. While in Saratoga Dr. Walker exhibited many pictures showing our progress along various lines of activity. Ambition of Marcellus H. Hawkins. Marcellus H. Hawkins of West Eighty-fourth street. New York, is doing splendid work as an artist. His cartoons are very timely and suggest the ambition of a bright mind. Young Hawkins is anxious to serve our editors with copy. His efforts are worthy of encouragement. Educators Hold Meeting at Cheney, Pa. The conference of teachers of Pennsylvania and Delaware, held the latter part of April at the Cheney (Pa.) training school, was largely attended. The idea of the conference was to discuss plans for better education for the race and also to arrange a social program with a view of arousing members to a larger sense of duty in respect to their states as citizens.
