Attend Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. Big Tract Meet and Picnic, Rocky Mt. Lake, May 30th. The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 TWENTY-SIXTH YEAR Number 137 Interesting News Concerning the Race. Smith, an active member of the Douglass Film Co., spent several days in Virginia selecting the prospective settings for the pictures, and the players, with the camera man and manager left Jersey City Tuesday night last. They were met in Washington by Mr. Smith and taken on Wednesday to the points in Virginia selected for the pictures. The play is expected to be released June 15, or not later than July 1. Officers of the company are: Dr. W. G. Alexander of Orange, president; Dr. I. A. Lawrence of Eliza beth, vice-president; A. R. Mayo of Jersey City, secretary; Dr. George E. Cannon treasurer. "Let Race Prepare," Says Dr. Ransom New York City.—The Rev. Reverdy C. Ransom, editor of the American Methodist Epis copal Review, speaking before the Lvceum of St. Mark's Methodist church on National Preparedness of the Colored Race,' said the causes of the Colored man's position in the country today were due to his lack of racial and industrial preparedness. "Africa," said Dr. Ransom, "was the cause of this great war in Europe. But our ancestors, who were unprepared were brought across the seas, and as a people have remained unprepared ever since. Dr. Ransom spoke of the policy of the Anglo-Saxons to maintain his people in a state of unpreparedness, but counseled them to take the initiative in order that, like big industry, they might be prepared for greater things after the war. "When it comes to fighting for this country," said Dr. Ransom, "I counsel the black people, who are 10,000,000 strong, to demand that there is to be a separate Colored regiment, there shall be appointed Colored officers to direct it, and on that principle demand certain conditions under which they will fight the country's battles. But let Americans of African descent remember that if they don't fight for the Stars and Stripes they have no other flag to fight for." Portland, Oregon. After receiving a protest from Mrs. E. D. Cannady, manager of the Advocate, Mayor H. R. Albee, of this place, ordered a sign, "No Colored People Served at the Tables" taken down from a confectionery store. In replying, Mayor Albee, said the proprietor spoke very highly of the Negroes in the neighborhood that the annoyance came from outsiders and agreed to move the sign. BIRTH OF NATION CAUSED CONGRESSMEN TO SCRAP. Washington.—A fist fight between two members of congress over the moving picture "The Birth of a Nation" gave a subject for general congressional gossip today. Congressman Lehlbach of New Jersey, of a family of vigorous abolitionists, and Connichols of South Carolina, a fiery and husky Southerner, were the principals of the affair. Nichols, according to the story told today, was at dinner at a Capitol hill hotel when the New Jersey representative entered. The two had been friends thruout the present session of congress. Thru occupying adjoining offices in the house office building and as new members they had been together a great deal. When Lehlbach entered the dining room the Southerner invited him to dine with him. In the course of the meal Lehlbach vigorously criticised the moving picture, especially "The Birth of a Nation" He commended the stirring resolution recently introduced in the house for the suppression of the film and spoke at length on his abolitionist ancestors. The Southern representative objected and an altercation ensued. Nichols, who is built on the model of Jess Willard and is one of the youngest members of the house, concluded the argument with two well directed blows, a left jab and a right uppercut. Before the New Jersey member could recover and return the attack waiters and nearby diners intervened. The incident closed with Lehlbach hurriedly leaving the dining room. Mutual apologies were exchanged there afterwards. Work Started by New Jersey Film Company Jersey City, N. J.—The Frederick Douglas Film Co. a corporation composed of some of the leading Negroes of the State, has started actual work on its first photo play a three-reel drama,"Winning His First Suit," which will show various phases of Negro progress since emancipation The leading characters will The leading characters will be portrayed by Jersey City people, Mrs. Ida Askin, Miss Florence Spead and Frederick Quinn being cast for the leading roles. The picture will be staged by the Centaur Studio of Bayonne, and the scenes of the play will be laid in Virginia. The Rev. W. S. Negro Interests Must Come First Common Sense and Principle to Harmonize There are times when the course of action which is practicable, which is expedient, which is necessary, runs counter to principle; then one may be excused for hesitating over what he should do. But when one thing which must be done, and the thing which ought to be done lie in the same direction, it is sheer folly to take any other course. This, we believe, meets the question of what course of action the American Negro should take. Here and there a cry of doubt is arising as to whether or not we should continue to assume and perform the obligations and duties of American citizenship if the full rights and privileges of that citizenship are not accorded to us. Now, without any cant about patriotism or love of country, or without recourse to any other sentimental reason, let us see if we cannot arrive at the true answer. It is generally accepted, except by anarchists, that the performance of national duties is right in principle. Then let us see, if for the American Negro, the performance of these duties is not only the right thing, but also the practicable, the expedient, the necessary thing. Let us see if it is the thing which not only ought to be done, but also the thing which must be done. If it is both, there can be no excuse for doubt or hesitation as to what course of action the race should follow. It is clear that the practicable thing, the expedient thing, the necessary thing before the Negro is the gaining of full American citixenship and he has got to use every means within his power to achieve his purpose. It takes only common sense to see that this can never be done if he himself renounces his claim and title to citizenship, and accepts the position that this is a white man's country. He must continue to perform his duties while he still contends for all the rights. For him to accept and perform the duties and not demand the rights would be pusilla inimious; the other hand, to demand the rights, and decline the duties would be foolish. So long as the Negro continues to do both, he has a clean case in court; and he is bound, sooner or later, to win the decision. The writer does not agree with those visionary optimists who believe that things will come out all right because you want them to come out right. The position he takes is not based upon optimism; it is based upon a study of the forces at work and an observation of the constant progress which the race is making. Those who grow discouraged and bitter are influenced by the fact that prejudice appears to increase. They say, "What is the use of making progress if it is to be met only by stronger opposition? It is true that opposition to our progress does grow stronger; but we must remember that the speed of our progress is constantly increasing. We are meeting with new evidences of prejudice; but we must remember that we are daily knocking at new doors of opportunity. If we stop or begin drifting backward, the opposition will grow less. The encouraging thing to note is that increased opposition has not been able to lessen our speed. Today some cities are passing or attempting to pass segregation ordinances; whereas such a thing was not thought of thirty years ago. The reason is that today thousands and increasing thousands of Negroes are living in homes that excite the envy of certain whites, while thirty years ago the huts and cottages in the alleys and on the back streets did not arouse any such sentiment. Now does any one believe that these segregation ordinances are going to stand forever? Such a person seventy five years ago would have believed that slavery was going to stand forever. Nothing based on wrong has been able to stand forever. We know that every foot of progress made by the Negro has been fought over; but see how the scene of battle has shifted. Two hundred years ago the fight was as to whether or not he was really a human being with all the at- DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, MAY 27, 1916 "BIRTH OF A NATION" DEFEATS DENVER MAYOR Denver, Colo.—According to the Denver Star, "The Birth of a Nation" played an important part in the recent municipal election. It is claimed that the Negro vote elected Robert W. Speer as Mayor of the city and put a quietus on such plays as "The Birth of a Nation," despite Republican attempts to hold the vote in line. The Star concludes: (By James W. Johnson in The New York Age.) "The first skirmish has been won, now comes the real battle, the struggle to make good and keep true his pledged word for law enforcement greater prosperity, better police protection, and a strictly non-partisan administration, playing no favorites. In this program of action he needs the aid and assistance of every Negro."—New York Age. May 18 St. Louis, Mo.—Because she refused to allow him to administer gas or to pay for services which he had not rendered. Mrs. Pearl Johnson, 3136 Pine street, had to be rescued from the office of a white dentist, one Dr. Hutchinson, at the corner of Market and Jefferson streets. There are two, and only two ends before the American Negro, and at one of them he must finally arrive. One is the status of full citizenship and the other is a condition of serfdom. There is no middle ground. If the Negro in this country continues to work and fight, he will finally reach the former. When he stops working and fighting, he will gradually sink into the latter. It is a question of full citizenship or civil death. Should the Negro either from discouragement or bitterness say there is no hope, and cease to work and fight, he would surely be making the choice of civil death. The dentist locked his operating room door, but Mrs. Johnson called for help. Miss Arbella Payne, 3020 Laclede avenue, had accompanied and was waiting in the reception room. Hearing her friend's cries, and finding the door locked. Miss Payne ran outside and telephoned for a police officer. The officer forced Dr. Hutchinson to open his door and release Mrs. Johnson. Mrs. Johnson declined to have the dentist arrested, not wishing to incur the notoriety which would ensue. Eleven Negro graduates of reputable dental colleges have been licensed by the State of Missouri and are practicing their profession in St. Louis. Colored women are never subjected to such numillating experiences by professional men of the race. tributes of a human heart and soul. A hundred years ago it was as to whether or not he had sufficient gray matter in his brain to master the rudiments of learning. Fifty years ago it was over his right to be a free man. Today it is over his administration to full men bership in the body social and political. All the former battles have been won; then what reason is is there to suppose that we shall not win the one being taught today or whatever others there may yet be to night? The Negro must work; that is, he must keep up tireless efforts to develop himself along every line. He must right; that is, he must protest against wrongs, and must claim his rights and not let up until he gets them. And he must have faith in himself. Then, he cannot fail.

Only Race Paper that supported Him. 132 in the contest. In the News Times contest an auto racer was given to the boy or girl sending in the most subscribers, each subscriber counting so many votes. 132 contestants entered. As the result of the contest, the happiest boy in Denver Tuesday morning was Jason Perkins, one of our brightest school boys, and a boy with some sand in his JASON PERKINS. craw. He went in to win and his color did not bar him from winning; it was only a motor power to add to his hustling abilities. His sister, his friends the churches and the Star all rightfully claim a part of his glory. And he takes this means to thank the public and all of his friends in aiding him to be a victor. He led all the way from the start excepting last Sunday when the second contestant led him by 200. He received 211,600 votes, Lee Ryan 189,600. This was simply, a contest in grit, determination, confidence and tireless effort and these elements brought their reward. Just as Jason Perkins did in this contest other boys can do, if they have the nerve and will pay the price. It is safe to say that nearly every Negro in town takes News or Times, some take both in order to help the boy out. The Star is proud of our winner. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. J. r.

The last Sunday services witnessed a goodly attendance, both morning and evening. A number of visitors were noted among the audience, all of whom seemed to enjoy the program of worship. The pastor's subject in the morning, "Keeping the Eye on God," was delivered with characteristic vigor. At the evening service two persons, Mr. Stradford Harris and Mr. Jesse Sweatt, were added to the membership, the former for baptism. Next Sunday morning the pastor will preach from the subject, "Lest We Forget," in honor of those veterans who gave themselves so freely in the hour of the nation's need. A special offering will be taken as a floral tribute and will be turned over to a committee of the G. A. R. All veterans are invited to worship with us. On the first Sunday in June the church will make special offering in order to meet notes which will fall due shortly after that time. It is the hope that every lover of the church will be moved with a sense of obligation as he never has before. This is a time of stress which Zion will arise and meet as in other days. Early in the month of June the Bible class work will be suspended for the summer. A number of other intense activities will come to a pause in order that the jaded forces may secure a well earned rest. The chief interest during the mid-week will center in the Wednesday evening prayer meeting. The pastor will conduct a short Bible lesson, after which a season of prayer with good singing will refresh those who come. Every member of the church should gather this meeting a glowing success.

CHAS S. LIGHTNER. 2917 Glenarm Place. --- CAMPBELL'S USHERS' CLUB. The Ushers' Club, on last Monday evening, was highly entertained by Rev. and Mrs. Jas. Washington. After the business was transacted, they entered into a debate, subject, "Which has the hardest fight in life: Man or Woman?" which was discussed by all. The decision being on the women's side. The discussion was very spicy and well rendered. After the debate was over, Rev. S. B. F. Lowe, president of the Club, in his remarks stated that he was very proud of the Club, not merely to have the name "President," but that he was proud to be in the Club of such energetic, ambitious, sociable set of young christian men and women, and in his sincere appreciation of their co-operation since he has been the president. He presented each member with a little book containing the Club "Constitution and By-Laws." Rev. Lowe, a young man, has the ambition to do, and would do more for the uplifting of his race of people, if he only had the support of those of his race who have some power to help him instead of knocking. The Club was then served with a delightful luncheon by Rev. Mrs. A. L. Washington, although not always physically well enough to be with the club, we not only thank her for her service, but we pray that her health may be recovered and her spiritual life may continue on, until her career is wound up here on earth. Rev. Lowe has made a great record for himself while at Campbell and the Star wishes him continued success. Meetings of the Golden West Art Club: Mrs. Thalley, 1226 28th Ave., June 9th.

The employees of the National Baptist Publishing House of this city will be given an opportunity to develop themselves along literary lines. This will be connected with their regular chapel exercises, in which thirty minutes are spent each morning in devotions, where they have prayer and reading of the Bible, in which they post themselves on the Sunday school lesson for the next Sunday by reading the daily home readings, then they sing from the books that they have made. Hundreds of visitors have been attracted to these morning religious devotional exercises by the beautiful singing from the rich voices found among the hundred or more employees. When the chaplain, the Rev. Dr. Ellington—who, by the way, is the editorial secretary—announced in the chapel recently that the Rev. Dr. Boyd, the general secretary, founder and builder of the great Baptist Publishing House plant, had consented to allow the religious literary feature to become a part of the services more than 150 employees rejoiced.

New York.-The Baptist denomination the country over is proud of the work and brilliant achievements of the women of the denomination. Their efforts in organized bodies for the educational, missionary and social service advance have been constant. No wonder that the peace movement to bring the divided forces of the great national Baptist convention together again has among its promoters large numbers of earnest Christian women whose struggles for denominational success the past twenty years have taught them the great lesson that in union there is strength, power and influence. That the two conventions of the national Baptist body which now exist can come to an amicable settlement of their differences is an open belief among the leaders in all departments of the Baptist brotherhood. Duplication in religious and educational work of our race should cease if we are to maintain strong churches and schools for our children. Every yell of the mob, every lynching of a member of the colored race, every segregation ordinance or Jim crow car that runs the "Dixie" track is a reminder to the race that it should unite more closely for self defense. The great peace movement, like the influence of the gulf stream, is having a beneficial effect upon the rank and file of the leaders on either side of the divided forces. Let a conscience void of offense have a hearing; let it be mellowed by the gentle zephyr of the Holy Spirit and let peace sit enthroned on the brow of common sense. If the national convention is too large, as some say it is, let us unite and have some of the work carried on by groups of states under the head of district conventions and let the main convention act as a clearing house for the distribution of funds for whatever purpose, the same being designated by the district conventions. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof. Let us be wise in time and remember that Herod is still on the throne and this young race of ours should beed the voice of God. The commercial end of the work could easily be adjusted without the loss of a single official from the head of any department. If wrong exists it should be righted. Give Caesar the things which are his and render to God the things which are God's. The signs of the times and every physical force which has any bearing upon our well being in this country are surcharged with messages of warning, which when interpreted bespeaks the urgent necessity of racial and national unity. The gospel of the Man of Nazareth is a gospel of peace. KEEP YOUR SKIN CLEAR AND HEALTHY. There is only one way to have a clear, healthy complexion and that is to keep the bowels active and regular.

UNDER ABLE MANAGEMENT. Institution at Jacksonville Holles Interesting Founders' Day Exercises With Large Attendance President Collier and Board of Trustees Are Planning For Larger Equipment. Jacksonville, Fla.—To develop thinkers in the race the effort being put forth by the Florida Baptist college here, which celebrated its twenty-fourth anniversary recently in shape of a founders' day. The exercises were held in the chapel of the college in the presence of a large number of people A. E. PROFESSOR N. W. COLLIER from various parts of the state and some from other sections of the country. Like many of the institutions operated by the race, it had its origin among the "fathers." Many of them, being themselves deprived of an education, desired to have their sons and daughters take their places among the thinkers. The growth and influence of this institution have been marvelous. It stands among the great institutions of the country. The school was started in the lecture room of the Bethel Baptist Institutional church, with Revs. M. W. Gilbert, D. D.; J. T. Brown, D. D., and Miss Sarah A. Blocker as teachers. When Dr. Gilbert left Dr. Brown was made president and remained at the head of the school for two years. It soon outgrew the church space, and a site was purchased on which to erect a larger building. In the meantime a brilliant young man, Professor Nathaniel W. Collier of Augusta, Ga., was called into the work as one of the professors, and when Dr. Brown resigned he was made president. In this position he has labored successfully for a number of years. Under the administration of Professor Collier a fine building for boys has been erected and the student body increased to over 500. This number would be larger if there was room to accommodate them. Money has been raised looking forward to the erection of another building, yet the institution feels to some extent that it will be necessary to have even more room; and to that end the officers are planning. The participants on the program at the recent exercises were Revs. C. Brewer, J. P. Davis, W. D. Vann, Charles H. Anderson and Miss J. A. Junius. The speakers were Charles Stewart, A. M., D. D., of Chicago, and the Rev. Dr. S. B. Rogers, secretary of the board of missions for the white Baptist convention of the state. Dr. J. E. Ford, pastor of the church where the school was started some years ago, also took an active part. The first address was delivered by Dr. Stewart, who said some helpful things to the people. In referring to the late Mr. LeBourveau he said: "God has always provided friends for us among the white people of this country, and he will continue to do so if we will be friends to ourselves and take advantage of every possible opportunity to help ourselves. "Our fathers had faith in you young people. They believed that with proper training they would make good and would make the world know that they lived. "This gathering tells of racial pride, of what we are doing for ourselves, and I am glad to see that our friends come in to look on us. We are going to continue to make the world sit up and take notice. Your work tells." The Rev. Dr. Rogers delivered a strong, practical address. He congratulated the race upon its progress and then told of some of the faults which stood in the way of racial progress. He spoke of the lack of racial ideals, the spirit of co-operation in order to rise to higher things in life. "You do not hold up your great men as ideals," he said, "and this will always stand in the way of your progress." Special mention was made of Miss Sarah A. Blocker, who is the only teacher that was with the organization of the school. She has devoted her life to the work and is in charge of the girls.

The executive board of the national Baptist convention has been called to meet June 15 in the New Prospect Baptist church, Memphis, Tenn., for the purpose of arranging a program for the session to be held next September in Savannah, Ga.

The ministers of Savannah have well organized and are arranging to give the Baptists a great reception. The executive board is composed of each elective officer of the convention, each state vice president, chairmen and secretaries of each of the boards. This within itself will make a large gathering.

Harper, who made the first Jim Crow appointment at the capitol, will address some Negroes upon some subject just three or four months before the primaries in which Gov. Carlson, his employer, will participate. The Star is not in favor of any Jim Crowers, black or white, and no form of Jim Crowism. We are wondering what he can say to the Negroes and how sincerere he will be after he has Jim Crowed them. If he intends to apologize to them, to get votes for the September primaries, the Star even doubts the genuineness of his apology. We are for Alison Stocker first, last and all the time; the man who believes in all men up. Let those who care to hear the remarks made by the man who Jim Crows, go hear him, but for us, you cannot insult my race and then be brought in a Negro church to have the insult explained or some flattering remarks made to cajole me. Only way to do is the manly way, frown down on all Jim Crowers, as well as Jim Crowism. PLANTING SEEDS FOR RACIAL PROGRESS. In response to the call issued last week by the Star for our business men to get together and form a commercial organization for the benefit, protection and preserving of Negro business, as well as for the creating, vitalizing and development of Negro labor by finding employment for the same, eight business and professional men met and a tentative organization followed, with Dr. Crump, Lawyer Ross and A. A. Waller formed as a committee to bring in a working business plan for the organization. The following men attended: Lawyer W. B. Townsend, J. B. Richardson (barber), J. R. Contee (undertaker), O. W. Glenn (grocer), A. A. Waller (real estate), Dr. Crump, H. J. M. Brown (real estate), and Lawyer Geo. G. Ross. Many phases of the proposed work were taken up in detail and it was given out as an axiomatic principle that NO POLITICS will be brot into that body and that all business and professional men of standing conducting legitimate business were invited to participate. The men there pledged themselves to hereafter look after Negroes first, last and all the time and develop business men and not politicians. Lawyer Townsend spoke at length along this line. The men are in earnest and the Star predicts results, as the purpose and plan of operating is unfolded from time to time. When the committee gather-such necessary information that is required for the essentials of such an organization, another call meeting will be held. CLERK IN ASSESSOR'S OFFICE. When Mr. Clair J. Pitcher was first elected to that office he gave a messengership to recognize the capability of the man favored. This time when appointed to his old job by Mayor Speer, he again recognized capability and efficiency by giving Mr. Henry Hinkle a clerical position last Monday. Mr. Pitcher has led off the good work and we hope it continues. Mr. Pitcher was the man of the hour in our Birth of Nation fight, he having made the motion to suppress the film God bless Mr. Pitcher. While we are talking, note not a Negro has been dismissed from service. Mayor Speer promised to make his administration non-partisan and he is doing that also. The Star is calling special attention to the ad of the Keister's Ladies Tailoring College, a school of instruction for drafting, dress making, designing and ladies' tailoring, at 509 Common wealth Bldg., 15th and Stout Sts.

OFFICIALS --- Tuskegee Institute, Alabama. — In their desire to make the National Negro Business league an organization of direct service to its members and to the race in general the officers and members of the executive committee, through the co-operation of a friend of Tuskegee institute and of the late Dr. Booker T. Washington, have decided to send an experienced advertising man into various communities as its representative to organize new local Negro business leagues, revive local leagues which have become inactive and to help local leagues outline a definite, constructive program for extending the trade of race enterprises through standardized advertising and merchandising methods. Beginning May 1 Albon L. Holsey, who has attained considerable experience as an advertisement writer and all around advertising man, will begin a whirlwind campaign under the auspices of the National league, covering the south, and southwest. For nearly two years Mr. Holsey has been closely associated with Emmett J. Scott, secretary of Tuskegee institute and also secretary of the National Negro Business league, with whom he has worked as an assistant in the business league work. He is therefore thoroughly conversant with the league's activities. The itinerary which has been outlined includes visits to important cities in south Georgia, north Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, southern Illinois and Indiana, western Kentucky and concludes at Kauai City, Mo., Aug. 16, when the annual session of the National Negro Business league begins. Young People Conclude Celebration. The Young People's association of the Concord Baptist church, in Brooklyn, R. Lincoln Powell, president, concluded the celebration of its thirty-sixth anniversary on Tuesday evening, April 25. The celebration began on April 4, and on each Tuesday evening of the month there was rendered a literary program, followed by a social hour. Visiting organizations of young people of the denomination throughout Greater New York took part in the celebration. The association numbers nearly 200 and is considered wealthy.

The Martha Washington Art and Literary club showed great honor to Mrs. Mary Miller of 3737 Williams St. last Friday when all the club ladies, each with a present, met at the home of Mrs. Eva Cammel of 2807 Welton, arranged the stork shower in a beautiful umbrella carried by Mesdames Wm. Edson and D. L. Mallard. All marched to Mrs. Miller's home. Mrs. Miller was so greatly surprised, words are inadequate to express her feeling, and greeted the ladies with smiles, joy and hand-shaking. When all were again themselves, Mrs. J. L. Burnett of Columbine St., in her most dignified manner, rose, made a few appropriate remarks and presented the greater surprise—the shower, the token of esteem and friendship. When the urabrella, grooming with presents, was opened and the contents placed upon the table, never was such silent and supreme joy felt by any company as was felt on this occasion. Too much honor, praise and thanks cannot be given the ladies for their loyalty to their members. Mrs. Thos. Colt of Marion street joined in with the ladies. Refreshments were served and all left wishing Mrs. Miller much success and happiness. "P.A."

Mrs. Opal Morgan of 970 Navajo St. was the hostess at one of the most delightful afternoon receptions of the season, Tuesday, May 23. The party, which was composed entirely of ladies showed what the fair sex can do when they get together. Entertainment was furnished by Mrs. Hattie Hickman, who rendered the latest songs of the season and read several selections from Dunbar and Shakespeare. Mrs. Etta McDaniels rendered a few of her favorite solos. Mrs. Celia Smith wore pale blue with georgette crepe over shell pink melloline. Mrs. Etta McDaniels, black taffeta brette skirt and point lace waist. Mrs. Barnes, georgette crepe. Mrs. Green, gray messaline. Mrs. H. Hickman, pink taffeta with chiffon. Mrs. Alexander white serge afternoon dress. Mrs. Ferguson, blue voile with hand embroidered waist. Mrs. Ford, green satin with white georgette crepe. A more delightful social activity was never spent anywhere than upon this occasion. Mrs. Opal Morgan is all smiles because of her social proclivity. First prize, a lovely vase, was won by Mrs. Barnes, and the second prize, booby prize, a "Charley Chaplin," was won by Mrs. Etta McDaniels. Joy and pleasant memories was the consequence of the evening. SELF IMPROVEMENT SCORES BIG HIT WITH LADY MISTRELS. The Self Improvement and Social Club added another laurel to their already crowded list of victories in the entertainment line last Monday night at Fern hall, when the lady minstrels were exhibited before the footlights. Every club member took some part and made a grand success via the burnt cork route. The evening was replete with funny frills, laughable jokes and ludicrous makeups. The various clubs of the city came and sat in a body. Better club feeling has never existed than at the present time. The S. I. & S. club was truthfully given the honors they so well deserved and earned. Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Revels, who have sojourned in our city during the past six months, have returned to their Chicago home. They were very congenial people and made many friends, who were loathe to see them leave.

Don't Ask EPISCOPAL HONORS URGED FOR REV. GEORGE W. PORTER Noted Clergyman Is Choice of Whole Tennessee Delegation. By DR. CHARLES W. SHBLLS. As chairman of the Tennessee state delegation to the general conference of the A. M. E. church, which convened at Philadelphia May 3, I feel it my duty to set before the convention the facts of the discussion of the whole delegation with reference to the Rev. Dr. G. W. Porter, who has three times received the indorsement of the conferences in Tennessee for the high position of bishop within the past year, and there is now no question as to whom Tennessee will support in the general conference for the episcopacy. First Dr. Porter was indorsed with Dr. J. A. Jones during the fall conference sessions, with the understanding that whichever of the two should get a majority of the delegates elected would be Tennessee's candidate. After the sessions of the conferences the delegates were called upon to mail sealed votes to Bishop Jones, which a majority of them did, and Dr. Porter received a large majority of the votes cast, and Dr. Jones at once withdrew from the race and declared himself for Dr. Porter Finally the state delegation met in Nashville Feb. 4, 1916, with twenty-one out of twenty-seven delegates present, and made the selection of Dr. Porter unanimous. So we are asking the members of the general conference to assist us in the election of this highly competent and worthy man to the bishopric. Dr. Porter is a man of great experience in the church, a strong preacher, great pastor, good financier, upright character, ripe scholar and all around Christian gentleman. He both knows and loves the A. M. E. church, and we here in Tennessee, who know him best, know that the connection will be blessed by his elevation to the episcopacy. Once in a hundred years Tennessee has been honored by our great church. Let us have this honor once more at the close of the century and we will be satisfied for the time being. We know that no man among the many candidates for this high position is better fitted for its duties than Dr. Porter, and we are not trying to elect him simply to honor him nor even to honor Tennessee, but we want to elect him because we know he will be a blessing to the connection in particular and to the race in general. He is a man of clean life and strict integrity. A lover of men and especially a lover of ministers, he is always full of sympathy for the struggling preacher, and none are too small to share his sympathy and ald to the extent of his ability. The people of Tennessee regardless of church denomination are justly proud of Dr. Porter, and the Tennessee delegation takes great pleasure in offering him as their candidate for bishop. We call upon other states and sections to help us in the elevation of this worthy man, and we shall be glad to reciprocate on behalf of the worthy men they may offer for various positions. Judge Dyer Rendere a Fair Decision. In rendering his decision against the enforcement of the segregation ordinances in St. Louis District Judge Dyer says: "The Negro is entitled to the same consideration and the same rights as is a white man. The Negro doesn't want social equality. He wants the same rights before the law as the white man, and he should have them." Interest Shown In Home For the Aged. The annual dinner held for the benefit of the Home For Aged and Infirm Colored Women in Pittsburgh on Thursday evening, May 4, was well attended. The interest shown by the various churches and clubs in this worthy institution is to be highly commended. BOOKER T.

Tuskegee Institute, Alabama—One of the most unexpected contributions to the Booker T. Washington memorial fund was received here a few days ago when the sum of $500 was contributed under rather unusual circumstances. The contribution represented a part of the savings of the late Mary Strater, who died in January, 1916, in her eighty-ninth year. Miss Strater was born in Newark, N. J., when New Jersey was a slave state. At the age of twelve years she became the property of a prominent family of that city. Later this family moved to Massachusetts, and Miss Strater, then a young woman, went with the family as a servant and remained with them as servant and inmate until her death, a term of seventy-seven years. At the time of her death her savings had accumulated into quite a tidy sum, and it was her wish that a part of this money should be appropriated to aid in improving the condition of her race in the south. A member of this family whom Miss Strater had nursed when a child has sent for the Booker T. Washington memorial fund the sum of $500 toward the cause. Commenting upon this gift, Hon. Seth Low, chairman, in writing on behalf of the board of trustees in special acknowledgment there of said: "I observe that she (Miss Strater) wished her savings to be given to aid in improving the condition of her race in the south, and I write to express, on behalf of the board of trustees, our appreciation of the fact that you have dedicated her savings to the Booker T. Washington memorial fund. This association of the names of Mary Strater, and Booker T. Washington, in view of their respective histories, seems to me peculiarly interesting."
