INDIVIDUALS,ORGANIZATIONS COMMUNITIES
Should be Present or Represented at National Colored Citizenship Rights Congress to be Held at Washington, D.C.-John Wesley Church, October 4-5-Be Present.
This National Colored Citizenship Rights Congress is to be an open one, both to delegated persons and to individual representatives of the cause who attend on their own responsibility It is to be free and open for race conference, action and declaration The congress will organize itself independently. The National Equal Rights laegue will call it to order and those assembled will then create the Congress at Washington, D. C., one month hence.
Bodies Should send Delegates—Have a Citizens' Committee. Delegated representatives are quite advisable, and churches, civic and literary societies, fraternal organizations political and other clubs are asked to elect and send delegates. The call asks that a citizens' Equal Rights Committee be formed by public spirited citizens in each community to work up interest, hold a public meeting and send representation. Any person is at liberty to start such a committee, act at once. Write Wm. Monroe Frotter corresponding secretary, for any information desired. (Do not confuse this "Congress" with "Conference". Success to all efforts.)
The stars in their courses side with a race fighting for its rights—The Historical Test.
Boston, Mass. This year 1916 for Colored Americans is historically critical. It marks the accountability year of the first Southern president since freedom, and the half-century since the passage by Congress of the Civil Rights Bill and of the 14th Amendment creating their Citizenship.
For some years we have been losing our rights of citizenship, in law or practice, South and North, an ominons sign. At the height of such a year what is to be the answer of Colored American, itself, what it's historical record?
It is not enough to vote against the perfidious Wilson. Even so he might be reelected Shall the historian of tomorrow, and he will be a white man, perhaps this same Wilson, record that under a race proscription suffered not so much be any other race, 50 years after receiving citizenship, 12 million strong, this Colored race, alone of like race groups, was incapable of itself creating and maintaining organized self-defense of rights on a national basis?

PREJUDICE ATTEMPTED.
Southern Women Quit Boom Because of Negroes
New York, Sept. 12. There was a racial outbreak at the meeting of the women's committee of the Hughes alliance at the Hotel Astor yesterday. Mrs. Leon M. Polachek, a grand-niece of Robert E. Lee the Confederate general, objected to the presence in the room of fifteen Negro members of the committee formed by Mrs. Emily S. A. Page. She left in indignation with several other women who asked that their names be not used.
A Colored business concern to be called The Promoters' Business Syndicate has been organized in Oklahoma City, Okla. The object of the organization is to purchase land, transfer, sell and assign an interest in all kinds of merchandise, and to manufacture medical goods and household wares.
D. A. Moore is said to be the only Colored locomotive engine driver in the United States. He runs on the New York Central road.
How Record of Race Can Be Saved.
Religious, fraternal, charity business organization. local organization for rights or national by the philanthropic aid of noble friends, are all most excellent, but do not sustain our historical record as a race. This can be easily done, however, by the formation of an Equal Rights committee by Colored Americans in each Colored Community. Have it understood that these committees are for cooperation with other organizations and all difficulty is removed. They are to prevent the charge of no self-fight or initiative, are for members of all other organizations to join, and are not to interfere.
The great OPPORTUNITY comes NOW. Every Colored Community should form an Equal Rights Committee at once, and send a delegate the National Colored Citizenship Rights Congress called for Washington, D. C., Oct 4. by the National Equal Rights League, whose branches hold up this cause but in not enough places. Through the Congress or league these Equal Rights Committees—the very name has power—can be nationally connected. Send either a delegate or a message to the Congress. Thus without any interference with existing agencies our race can save its old historical record and by self-help and spirit retain a valid claim before mankind to Equality of Rights.
Act now, Colored America, William Monroe Trotter.
DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, SEPT. 16, 1916
Denver Negroes Loyal. Districts C, H and T Speak Volumes.
The primaries are over and the Republicans of this city, County and State have spoken out and rendered their decision in favor of Mr. George A. Carlson for Governor upon the Republican ticket this fall. The Star favored Mr. Nicholson as the best man and deeply regrets that he was defeated. We worked every ounce of brain and physical power to nominate him and helped to carry Denver by 2300. We have no apologies to make for the campaign we made against Mr. Carlson and our attitude against Mr. Carlson. Our same attitude and views of Mr. Carlson have not changed on his Jim Crowism and treatment of our Negro women. Mr. Nicholson showed them every courtesy and we believed in him. He kept his word. He went down with his colors flying high, he, having stood upon a platform and principle which make him bigger in his defeat than if he would have stooped to cater to a certain element who fought him. He wore no man's collar and was defeated. To nominate a man does not always mean to elect him. The great common people of this state must finally weigh you in the balances of your past record of activity, mistakes and good deeds and then put the stamp of approval upon you. The Star intends to win friends to our cause not by surrender, compromise nor evasion of true manhood principles involving our race, but by doing our duty regardless as to where it leads. We believe that duty is destiny. We did our duty to Nesbit, now what will we do to the man who assisted Nisbet is the question that the Negro voter, for his own self-protection will have to answer this fall. There is a vital principle involved and we ask the Negroes to pause, weigh and consider what will be gained if we win at one point and surrender what we have won on the other. To defeat us only means to delay us and not discourage us.
When we turn to the rest of the ticket we get much encouragement because the following persons were nominated. Supreme Court, Gabbert and Allen: Auditor, Thorson: Attorney General, Rees; Lieut.-Governor, Lewis; Secretary of State, Ramer; Treasurer, Mulnix; State Supt., Wixon; County Judge, Luxford; Juvenile Judge, Heckendorf; District Attorney, Gillespie: District Judge, Whitford. FOR CONGRESS—First district. William V. Vaile; Second district. Charles Timberlake; Third district, W. O. Peterson; Fourth district, Henry Baird.
Leavenworth, Kan.,—Jesse Loveless is an example of many of the men serving in in the penitentiary, according to his testimony, that has been wronged. He was a private in Troep M, Tenth U. S. cavalry. He says on the evening of Sept. 3, 1915, he was relieved of guard duty and arrested charged with rape, and after being arrested the case was investigated by the national color sergeant. All the women around Fort Huachuca, Ariz. were summoned, and they said no one assaulted them. For two days all the women brought the color sergeant said no; on the third day a woman said yes, that she had had been asaulted, and point ee to him. He was locked in cell and no one allowed to see him. Not even his own troopers were allowed to see him. Not being allowed to get a witness, the soldier, who had served his country; defended its flag, was "railroad ed to the penitentiary."
He was taken to Tucson,
Ariz., and held for federal court. The woman was bro't to the jail and asked by the prisoner if she had been as saulted, and she said no; but when this same woman was taken to the federal court she told various and conflicting stories. The day she said the crime was supposed to be committed she told others that he did not commit the crime. Any rate, the soldier was sent to prison. There was nothing to indicate that the woman was molesteb. He is serving time today, says the prisoner for a crime he did not commit Here is a case that should be reopened, and, according to the testimony of the ex soldier he deserves a fairer trial, and some one should be interested and push the case again. Our soldiers are giving their lives too freely for the protection of the flag for their rights to be "railroaded", as was soldier Jesse J. Loveless.
Every thinking member of of the race will agree that some great National movement be started to overcome the widespread tendency to discredit the race in America. We have fought it in every way possible, but the most powerful weapon is the deep rooted consciousness of pride and faith in our blood and the possession of absolute facts to maintain them against our enemies.
In the psychology of the human mind suggestion plays a mighty part. If it be true the old saying, that as a man thinketh, so he is, then that self-making power becomes proportionately more powerful when applied to a whole race. For years it has been constantly affirmed and reaffirmed that races of African blood have contributed nothing to civilization, and this incessant affirmation has produced a conviction of truth not only in the minds of those who affirm but also in the minds of those whom it wrongs. We have been reared in an American Country, instructed in an American system of education and studied out of American books and throughout the whole runs the avowed intention of degrading the African race by insisting that it has ever been savage and servile. It is the greatest lie ever foisted upon a people. It must be overcome by actual facts not alone in history but gathered from a minute and scientific study of the origin, rise and distribution of African peoples. Every great nation of antiquity, including Egyptians, Babylonians, Persians, Arabians, Hindus, Grecians. Romans and many others were primarily African or of African descent.
For the Negro to win out in this educational study and dissimulation. every Negro man and woman ought to prepare themselves to exploit the facts of our ancestral history and defend the nobility of our blood against every breath of calumny. That activity is but an initial step in a campaign of national education and public defense of the Negro race in America which will become one of the educational sensations of the world. Study ethnology of ancient peoples, together with investigations of their literature, records monuments and archeological remains.
We state this fact with out bitterness, for we believe that although it may be difficult for us to see it, there is a divine purpose back of it. It is going to work out all right in the end.
This is developing in us a race consciousness, limiting it self now, but gaining force by that very limitation, which will make us a tremendous so

FIVE CENTS A COPY.
B. L. Gaten, of the New Amsterdam Musical Association, in a statement to the Amsterdam News, says that with the Mammouth delegation from Asbury Park, he attended the notification meeting held by the Democrats to notify President Wilson of his nomination last Friday at Long Branch. There were, Mr. Gaten says something like one hundred colored delegates, comprising the Randolph Association of Newark and the men of the Mommoth, but when they reached the summer White House situated on Shadow Lawn, the colored men were halted at the gate by uniform police and told they would not be allowed to enter.
The leader of the delegation, Mr. Gaten savs, was "Chick" Brown, of Newark, and Sam Ward, alias 'Cocky.' We thank Mr. Gaten for this news, but we are amazed to learn that there are still some colored organizations of a political nature who are silly enough to try to gain admit tance to the Democratic party and its conference when the administration headed by President Wilson, has repeat edly shown them that they are not wanted.
PROMOTED IN POSTAL SERVICE IN DENVER.
After 15 years of efficient work and service in the postal department, Mr. C. L. White has been raised to a special clerkship which commands a salary of $1300 per annum. His high record for merit made him the fifth in efficiency in the whole department. He is one of the oldest men in the service and is held in the highest esteem among his fellows. Mr. White is the only Negro who receives such a salary in this department.
cial. industrial and political power in this nation. This race consciousness is manifesting itself in race confidence, which is gradually revealing to us our latent and unused power of organization for the support of development of our own business institutions groceries dry good stores and similar enter prises which will command respect and give us recognition in the commercial world. This will mean employment for our youth from which they are now barred. We are gaining race consciousness and with it race confidence which means commercial and industrial emancipation.
Cultivate race, confidence by supporting race enterprises race business and professional men and women, Americans, yes, always: but since it is forced upon us Colored Americans first.

REV. ROBT. L. POPE, B. D.
PASTOR.
Our pastor will occupy the pulpit tomorrow at both services, and this being his last Sabbath before leaving for the annual conference, a great service is expected. Let every member and friend who has not paid in his Dollar Money report tomorrow. The condition of Mrs. Crane's health is somewhat improved and Mrs. Pope, our pastor's wife is expected to return to the city Monday, in time to attend the Pueblo Conference. The Hawaiian Club under the leadership of Mrs. Nora Fairbanks entertained an audience at Shorter Tuesday evening in grand style and every one went away singing the praise of this newly organized group of young people. The proceeds of the entertainment were applied towards helping the pastor off to conference, for which we publicly express our gratitude.
On Tuesday afternoon of next week the following delegation from Shorter will leave for Pueblo to attend the Colorado annual conference: Bishop H. B. Parks, of Chicago, presiding; Rev. and Mrs. R. L. Pope, Mesdames Alice L. Mason, Mary E. Wade, Mattie P. King and Martha Eubanks. On Monday evening the Stewardess Board will have a group of young people in "WATER FALL," a beautiful play and the conclusion of which the annual report will be read by the pastor.

Y. W. C. A. NOTES.
Because Miss Bettina Jackson, our faithful press agent, went to Omaha, Nebraska, on a visit last week, the Y. W. C. A. notes were conspicuous for their absence in the news column of our paper last week.
A large gathering greeted our visitors at the vesper service Sunday, Sept. 3. The Rev. and Mrs. E. Thomas Demby were the special speakers. Rector Demby is arch-deacon of the Colored work of the Episcopal church in Tennessee. He and his good wife, who for many years have been doing things for up-lift of our people, delivered able and instructive addresses.
Miss Myrtle Travers gave her farewell talk, telling of the joy she had found in working in the Phyllis Wheatley Y. W. C. A. with the gym, class and other activities. Miss Travers left last week for Tuskegee, where she is to teach, carrying with her the good wishes of the Y. W. C. A.
A good meeting was held last Sunday with Mrs. Nancy Sloane in tendance. Refreshments were served at the close of the service. Several women and girls who lingered until the rain was over found joy in reading the Association Monthly.
Our monthly business meeting of the Phyllis Wheatley Y. W. C. A. was held on Monday evening in our Club rooms at 318 25th St. There was a good attendance with Mrs. I. B. Perkins, Miss Venable, Miss Kirk, Miss Corey and Miss Perkins from the Central Association. Mrs. Lydt Smith-Ward filled the chair. Miss Moody acted Secretary, Miss Beatrice Thrashley presided at the piano. The treasurer, Miss Chapman, in her report showed a balance of over $60.00, with bills paid to Sept. 1st. Reports were made by Mrs. S. B. Bondurant, Mrs. Girtle Ross, Miss Thrashley and Miss Rosalie Ward. The report of Mrs. Bondurant for the program committee, showed a special program for next Monday evening, Sept. 18th. A membership rally for Sept. 25th, when each member is asked to bring the new name and fee of one dollar for the woman and fifty cents for the girl, as her contribution. There are many women and girls in Denver waiting to be asked to join this world wide movement. Let us get busy.
Miss Kirk, the Religious Work director of the Central Association, is to be teacher of a Bible class from 7 to 8 o'clock on Thursday evenings beginning next week, at our rooms, 318 25th St. All women and girls are invited to join this class irrespective of membership. Books are open for registration in the gym class.
Mrs. Berney will be leader of the vesper on Sunday at 4 p. m.

Many Good Things In Emanuel's Book of Verse. Says Bruce "Grit."
Charles A. Emanuel of St. Thomas. Danish West Indies, has recently published a collection of original poetry which his son, who is a printer, has printed for him. In this little pamphlet I find so many good things that it is difficult to make choice, so at random I select "Africa, Arise!" which reveals the strong race yearnings of the poet, says Bruce ("Grit"):
Africa, arise! The dawn of truth is breaking.
Thy ransomed children come from lands afar.
Following their leader in the soul's awakening
'Gainst Error's host to wage perpetual war.
Bitter the conflict; but, on Him depending,
Naught can withstand their steady onward move.
List to their voice, fear and darkness reading,
As light and truth break from the throne above.
Long centuries of toil and of oppression,
long centuries of bitter persecution.
Long centuries of bitter persecution.
Assembled here upon this gem of ocean,
Beneath this sacred dome we bend the
knee.
With hands uplifted and with hearts' devotion,
Thanksgiving now we offer unto thee.
We praise thee, Father, for thy love which led us
Throughout the dangers of this doleful way.
We thank thee for the bread divine that fed us,
As heavenly manna falling day by day.
Africa, arise! Thy morning star is shining;
Thy light is come, Behold, thy truth appears!
Beyond this century's gloomy storm cloud's lining
Breaks forth the dawn-light of the thousand years.
Press onward, then, in joyful expectation
Of higher gains, of everlasting good.
Arise, unite, become a mighty nation.
Lifting thy hands unto the living God!

COURSE IN SIGN PAINTING.
How Students Are Taught In Technical Shops at Hampton Institute.
In the technical shop at the Hampton (Va.) institute students take up sign painting. They begin with the making of simple Egyptian letters and by degrees develop skill and do more difficult work. They learn the principles of good letter formation and spacing. They devote in the neighborhood of a day a week for three years to sign painting.
The technical instruction in paper hanging is supplemented by practical work under the instructor who has charge of the house painting. Negro and Indian boys learn how to handle themselves as well as how to handle the paper and paste with which they are dealing. They are taught how to work correctly and neatly. About 10 per cent of their time is devoted to this so called technical work in paper hanging.
After a student has learned the names of the common tools and knows how to match colors, he is given some work in grain painting. It is his business then to learn the technical names of the different parts of doors, windows, cornices, and rooms. He must be able to interpret his plans and the specifications from which he works. Other divisions of the technical work include graining, calcimining, stencilling and frescoing. As a part of their technical work, Hampton students make interesting experiments to test the wearing powers of paints, varnishes, and other covering materials. On one occasion the instructor had them take fifteen different varnishes and varnish sections of the floor. He also had them make full notes on the wearing qualities of the different trade varnishes.
Hampton places strong emphasis on the value of having students know the reasons why certain trade operations are performed. It is very important for students to learn thoroughly how to do technical work, but the school's instruction does not stop there. Hampton aims to have students put into practice on full scale work all that they have learned to do in the technical shop.
In the carriage shop the student cleans grease and dirt off vehicles sandpapers furniture, leads and prepares surfaces for papering. Next he learns to color and rub varnish. In the meanwhile he receives experience in mixing paints. He is told why cer

“No greater honor could come to me

Segregation is a punishment and you only punish for crime. Segrega-
tion deprives the Negro’ of municipal protectios; sanitary laws are not en-
forced with due regard for @cir health; the money that they pay for taxes
is usurped for the benefit of white communities; their streets are unpaved
and in case of fire their apparatus cannot reach the fire. Segregation legal:
izes prejudice and makes it a crime for Negroes to fight ft. Therefore, because
this proposed ordinance is oppressive and does not act allke upon all the
restricted class, we say it is unconstitutional, The graft in the bill is shown
here when these complainants run down property less valuable in Negro dis-
tricts or in any class section would jump in prices of rentals and sale. A
$50 lot would sell for $200, a $10 house would rent for $25, and the already
burdened Negro would have to pay for the white's prejudice. It is too unfair.

THE NICHOLSON DEFEAT—WHAT
1T MEANS TO THE NEGRO.
The Star had hoped that our choice
would be the nominee for Governor
upon the Republican ticket this fall.
He was defeated. What does his de
feat mean to the Negro? In every:
thing wherein the Negro was con
cerned and was promised anything
Mr. Nicholson kept his word. Mr.
Carlson two years ago who made cer.
tain promises as to what he would
do for the Negro, if elected, has not
kept his promise. He took away a
position of watchman heretofore held
by a Negro and gave to a white man,
It took the Negro Republicans nine
months to oust Mr. O. T. Jackson, an
open Democrat from his position as
Messenger. Delegationa after delega-
tions went to see Mr. Carlson at the
Capitol, who promised but did nothing.
‘No woman, altho there were 7,000 wo-
men voters of color, was recognized
by him. Then he took and created a
Negro Messenger job in the insur-
ance department and gave it to a man
who did not do anything toward his
election two years ago and who, at
that time was working for a Demo-
crat. It seems to the Star that if
after the election the @overnor can,
for 9 months, keep a Democrat in em-
ployment over the protest of his con-
stituents, can create a job and ap-
point a messenger who worked for a
‘Democrat, and can ignore our women,
what does he expect the manly. res-
pecttul and mindful Negro to do. as
to his candidacy? Does he expect
the Negro to forget these things, and
accept his glittering promises? Does
he really think the Negro has faith
in him and his word after such a rec:
ord of denial and vacillation? The
Star has forgotten its own, interest
and that of Republican party, as far
as the Governorship is concerned,
and is looking at Mr. Carlson as we
have already looked at him during the
last two years and as we shall look
at him, if elected, during the next two
years, from a racial stand-point. The
mere fact that the great majority of
the party renominated him does not
convince the Star that putting a Ne-
xro upstairs in a room all to himself
‘makes it right and that we have be-
fore us a different man. Wethave a
duty, it lies before us, and all those
who won't “forgett,” lickspitile, apol-
ogize and the like can compromise
their manhood for a job or the good
will of Mr, Carlson, but the Star must
do its duty and stand against such
treatment If we loge all other con-
siderations. A principle can never be
guined by selling out, laying down
nor being wishy-washy. If we must
Stand alone, here goes, God help us to
do our full duty to the race in our
hour of peril when discriminations at
State Capitol and at the various
places are flying thick and fast. The
Nicholson defeat has cost the Negro
much and we see no hope in Gover-
nor Carlson. The rest of the ticket
so far as we can now see and are
able to judge looks good But we
are asking now that certain candi-
dates’ records for the legislature
should be reviewed by the N. A. A.

of not less than five dollars ($5.00) nor more than fifty dollars (350.00) for
each offense. Each day that property is occupied in violation of this ordine
ance shall be deemed to constitute a separate offense for the purpose of this,
section. The prohibitions and penalties prescribed by this ordinance shall
extend and apply to the owner of any real estate within the City and County,
of Denver who shall permit it to be occupied in violation of this ordinance,
as well as to any person who shall so unlawfully occupy it. (Double crime)

8. The purpose of this ordinance is to preserve peace and order within
the City and County of Denver by preventing white persons and colored per-
sons, so far as practicable, from residing in the same block, but it shall not
be construed to forbid any person from acquiring and holding the title to real
estate anywhere within said City and County. The invalidity of any section,
sentence, clause or provision of this ordinance shall uot affect the validity
of any other portion which can be given effect without such invalid part.
‘The Star says this ordinance is unconstitutional: |
(1) Because it is unreasonable, arbitrary and oppressive, especially as
such regulations violate our Bill of Rights, Sec. 3, providing that all persons
have certain natural, essential and inalienable rights, among which are
those of enjoying and defending their lives and liberties, of acquiring, pos:
sessing and protecting property and of seeking and obtaining their safety
And happiness, It violates Sec, 15 and Sec. 25, which provides that no per-
son shall be deprived of life, liberty or property without due process of law.

Willison vs. Cooke, 130 Pac. 829.
(2) Because the ordinance picks out a class and then discriminates be-
tween those people of a particular class engaged in the same line of business,
excepting certain people who compete with the burdened class, and between
fnembers of the same class in the same race. (Servants and those not ser-
Yants adding additional burdens upon those who are not servants.)
Under this proposed ordinance, under the guise of public peace and se
curity, Negro lawyers are forbidden to have offices in down town business
places; so are doctors, newspapers and drug stores, as well as Negroes could
Mot go to jail, hospitals nor charitable institutions, no matter whether public
or private, nor how urgent, it would be a crime to try to break or destroy
prejudice which was legalized into law. It would be « crime for Negroes to
move and occupy, etc., residences, temporarily, transiently or permanently,
tte. To move into and occupy any place, transiently, temporarily or perma-
fently, Js a lawful act, regardless as to the neighborhood. To make then a
Jawful act unlawful because of race or color is an arbitrary, unfair and op-
pressive action, There is no more unlawfulness in Negroes moving into and
Beupying places where there are a greater number of whites, than where
there are a greater number of blacks, red or yellow people, neither a greater
fumber of Irish, Germans or Itallans, Methodists, Baptists, Catholics or
Protestants. It should never be a crime for Negroes to move and occupy
any Tlace, which was no crime to move and occupy before ordinance was
passed.
Negro nurses could not stay with white children who lived next door to
them; nor could a Negro visitor ever be received at the home of another
Negro. Janitors, chauffeurs and cartakers who take care of two apartment
buildings, ete., could not reside in any one of them because of the presence
of a greater number of whites, Servant girls could not stay all night with
Sirriend next door. Rights of sick thru accident or otherwise who need hos-
Sital care and attention are taken away, The Slav, Greek, Itallan and Per-
Man can come in our district, or white district, with their business and com-
fete with the Negro, who is burdened with extra fare and room rent and
Peleer hours. The Star wants to know what is unlawful, the neighborhood
{ota which Negroes move, or in it the moving and entering, or Is it the as-
Baring of the races or the closo proximity of the races, that mekes it an-
awful? Besides the extra expense in changing the public records, the un-

You will never find a quitter
If he’s leading in the race.
It is when the fight grows bitter,
And another makes the pace
That the coward starts to bellow
And to whimper at his woe,
If aman is streaked with yellow
When he’s pressed, it's sure to

When another makes the pace?

Annual Meeting of Influential Reli-
gious Body Held at Savannah Fraught
With Weighty Matteres—Netable Ca-
reer of Dr. L. G. Jordan, Originator
of the Lisle Monument Project.
By N. BARNETT DODSON.
The national Baptist convention,
which convened in its annual session
at Savannah, Ga. on Wednesday,
Bept. 6, to hold for one week, will deal
with many important matters, upon
which its future largely depends. The
strengthening of its publishing plant
and the adjustment of difficulties grow-
ing out of the division of its forces
which occurred at Chicago in 1915 wil
doubtless consume considerable time
‘The opening session was marked by
deep concern om the part of the leaders,
who worked earnestly to lay before the
delegates the exact conditioas of the
organfeation previous to esteriag upon
the real business of the convention.
One splendid feature of the session,
however, upoa which all are pretty
‘ell agreed as to its fitness and impor-
tance, is the work of the foreign mis.
ston board, under whose suspices the
monument to the memory of George
Lisle, the first modern foreign mission-
ary, bas been erected at Savannah
George Lisle was a native of Virginia,
having been born in that state tm 1760,
He was ordained to the gospel minte
anos. F
o a
try in 1775 and sailed for the foreign
‘field, in 1782. His death occurred in
1828 after he had rendered many years
of great service.
The idea of execting a monument to
the memory of George Lisle had its tn
ception in the fertile brain ef the Rev
Dr. L. G. Jordan, the energetic corre.
sponding secretary of the foreign mls.
“sion board of the convention, of which
‘the Rey. Dr. Tobinson fy the chair.
‘man, ‘The bonrd took kindly to. Dr.
Jordan's plan for securing funds with
which to have the monument erected,
‘and a financial campaign for that pur-
pose was becun,
‘The board through Secretary Jordan
requested the ,varlous state conven-
tions, Sunday schools, missionary and
young people's societies to contribute
to the fund. ‘Che responses to the sec-
retary's appeal wert quite generous.
“What {s known as “tag day” will be
observed during the session of the
convention at Savannah, where the
“Lisle monument will be unvelled Sept.
9. ‘The board hopes that a large
“amount will be collected from the sale
of tags because of the opportunity af-
forded to reach so many persons from
the various sections of the country.
For nearly a quarter of a century
Dr. Jordan has given his best efforts
to the foreign mission work of the con-
vention. He has traveled the country
over many times, securing funds for
the support of missionaries on the for
eign field and, in the common parlance.
has had a “hard row to hoe,” but he
has kept at it. Because of his zeal for
the work ho, fm often referred to ax
“the Little Baptist Steam Engine.”
‘The Ldsle: monument is not only a
credit to the denomination, but a very
high compliment to the thrift, indus-
try and mighty achievements of Dr
Jordan as a constructive genius. He
is the editor of, the Foreign Mission
Herald, which ts issued from _ the
board's headquarters in the Ewing
building, Philadeiphia. Dr. Jordan is
2 member of the National Negro Press
association and has been an active
worker since {t wes organized seven
years ago.

In the cash saving check system, a trade discount is given the consumer by the merchant in the form of an aluminum check, which is demanded by each patron who makes a purchase. The patron gets these checks whether the purchases are cash or credit and then this patron takes all his checks to the Consumers' Cash Savings Company in the Continental Bldg., where they are redeemed in cash. What does this mean? It means if your grocery bill is $50 per month and you get two per cent for purchases your checks cashed in would amount to $1 in hard cash. Now if you had received two per cent from all your merchants you trade with don't you see that you would get a nice interest on your monthly purchases which at the end of a year would amount to $12 cash. Under this system you spend your money and get 2 per cent, for spending it and in the banking system you save $50 per month and get 4 per cent, for saving it. Among those who have taken up the plan are the Doughlass Undertaking Co. and The Welton Fruit Store. Always ask every merchant for the checks or else you lose. Try it and see. The merchant who has these checks will do a greater cash business when the demand is made for cash checks. Get acquainted with the system by demanding a check for each purchase who regulates how they shall be given away.

O. Lord, teach them that the paper cannot live without money; teach them that to pay their subscription they are paying an honest debt; teach them, Father, that the poor editor cannot live by promises and water alone; teach them that he is flesh and blood. Then, Oh Lord, thru your mighty power, have revealed this fact to them, permit them unto Thy kingdom, where everything is free, where the unjust are not allowed, and the debts are paid, and the editor and readers are all at rest."—Amen.

The biggest time of many years in Boulder was the Basket Outing and Quarterly Meeting of Allen Chapel on last Sunday at the Chautauqua grounds. The Park Board granted the use of the big auditorium for the religious services. Two sections of this immense building which holds several thousands, were filled with both white and colored attendants. A crowd of more than seventy-five came up from Denver on the morning trains and remained over until night. Presiding Elder A. M. Ward, the suffering from the popular malady, hoyfever, delivered one of his strongest sermons in the morning on "The Love of God." The music by the Junior Choir of boys and girls was indeed excellent and gained many compliments. A regular old fashioned Methodist Class meeting followed the speaking of the morning. Ot one o'clock the huge baskets which had arrived in vans and wagons were spread in the beautiful vine-covered arbor just beside the auditorium and the happy throng began its onslaught. No king's feast could have equalled it. There was everything on the tables from chicken and sweet potatoes to ice cream and watermelon. The crowd ate and ate and then the fragments which were left still afforded many meals for the next day. Boulder certainly knows how to feed her guests.
The afternoon service was begun with another good old speaking meeting, led by Sister Elliot and Brother Clay. When Dr. R. L. Pope of Denver, was ready to deliver the stirring message of the hour the spiritual tide was high. Dr. Pope appeared to his best advantage and warmed the hearts of his hearers. He spoke on "Love, the greatest thing." There was one addition. Many remained over for the night service despite the rain, and with the home people packed the church to hear Presiding Elder Ward again. The choir, the small in numbers, held up to its usual reputation for good music. Holy Communion was given at the afternoon service. All Boulder enjoyed the day as a crowning event to the conference year's work. A class of six pro

baficians was taken into full membership in the evening service. Dr. P. E. Spratlin spoke at the afternoon service and advanced a most noble idea concerning the erection of some large rooming house on the A. M. E. church property to accommodate students of color who might desire to attend the state university. This idea met with hearty approval and should be carried out. Rev. A. Wayman Ward has just been elected the Secretary-Treasurer of the Boulder Ministerial Union. Mr. Ward is the only member of color in the Union. Such an honor speaks well for the Negro church of Boulder in having her pastor chosen for such a prominent position. Mr. Ward presented one of the strongest papers of last year's program before the ministers on the subject, "The Negro and the Pulpit." He repeated it by request in several of the white churches to highly appreciative audiences.
Rev. A. M. Ward and wife leave Monday for the Colorado Annual Conference meeting in Pueblo.
POCATELLO IN BRIEF.
Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Hall returned after a thirty days sojourn in Salt Lake, Denver, Colorado Springs and other points.

Mr. Thomas Moody has been on the sick list, for some time, but is able to be up again.

MEXICAN HERALD RINGS —
TRUE ON RACE QUESTION
The following letter from 1. A. Me-
Auliffe, acting manager of the Mexican
Herald at Mexico City. ‘s In reply to u
query made by Mr. Henry Allen Boyd,
corresponding secretary of the Natioual
Negro Press association, relative to the
Herald's attitude toward the colored
People of the United States:
“Mexico City, Aug. 4, 1916.
“Mr. Henry Allen Boyd, Corresponding
Secretary National Negro Press As-
sociation, Nashville, Tenn.:
“Dear Sir—As things have been very
unsettled down here, your letter of
March 18, 1916, was misiaid and was
discovered by meee morning with
some of Mr. Huds$n's mall. As Mr.
Hudson, editor of the Mexican Herald,
is at present absent in the United
States, I take the liberty of replying to
your letter in his name.
“Permit me to say, Mr. Boyd, that 1
am satisfied you are mistaken when you
accuse the Herald of having printed
matter against the colored race, as
during my nearly thirteen years of
serving on this paper I have never
seen anything against the American
Negro published in the sheet. On the
contrary, I can assure you and the as-
sociation you represent that my knowl-
edge of Mr. Hudson compels me to
state that he is a real friend of the
colored people. I cannot believe that you
read anything in the Herald against
your race, but that you make the
charge from hearsay evidence.
“With Mr. Hudson, Iam a friend of
the Negroes and am glad to note tbeit
progress in modern clvilization. The
race has done nobly, considering the
handicaps {i bas had to contend with
since the days of slavery, and its great |
achievements In education. as exempi-
fied in the career of Booker T. Wash: |
ington, as well as in the army of the
United States, as shown in Cuba and
recently in the Carrizal affair, where
the Tenth calvary covered itself with
glory, demonstrate that there is noth:
ing In the history of the Negro race in
the United States to be ashamed of
and that it gives promise of becoming
an important element in the population
of the greatest country God ever made.
Tagree with everything you say about|
the Mexicans, as I know them well. |
having Hved bere many years. Tho|
Mexican sees the worth in a man, no
matter what his color may be.
“Assuring you again, Mr. Boyd, that
the Herald 1s a friend of the American |
Negro, I beg to remain yours truly. |

Cash Savings Checks ARE AS Good as Gold
Trade only with the Denver merchants who give them and it will cost nothing to get them. Cash Savings Checks are given by Denver Merchants as a discount for cash. They differ from the trading stamp in that they are redeemed in Cash, and Cash only. They are made of aluminum in convenient sizes according to denomination and consequently are clean and indestructible. The face value is plainly stamped on each check. You can receive its equivalent in Cash at any time you present the Check to The Consumers Cash Savings Company, 210 Continental Building.
Cash Savings Checks Make It Possible For You To Save While You Spend
Many Denver Merchants in every line realize the advantages of doing a cash business and the prompt payment of accounts when due. They receive a cash discount on the merchandise they purchase and now offer you the same inducement to pay cash. You earn a dividend on every dollar you spend if you ask for CASH SAVINGS CHECKS whereever you buy and trade only with the Merchants who give them. You are wasting time and losing money! Why not get busy?
ABLE EXPONENT OF METHODISM
Career of Dr. R. M. M'Kenzie of Decatur, Ala.
LABORED IN MANY FIELDS.
Early Struggles of a Southern Boy Whose Pluck and Ambition Have Been Richly Rewarded With Success. Up From Country Farm to Prominence in the Ministry.
Decatur, Ala.—While the colored Methodist Episcopal church is comparatively new in this country, yet it has given to the race some able men and women, ministers who are well educated and devoted to the work. These men are not making much noise, but are doing actual work. In this class is to be found the Rev. R. M. McKenzie, A. B., B. D., pastor of the Bailey temple, colored Methodist Episcopal church in this town.
Like most men of the race, the Rev. Mr. McKenzie in his mouth nor was he surrounded with gold and silver, but in a humble country home in Monroe county Feb. 27, 1875. He is Alabama's gift to the colored Methodist Episcopal church. Just at the same time he really needed the care of a mother she was called away by death. He was then twelve years old, and a sister three days old was left to the care of a grandmother, while four other children remained with their father. Wesley McKenzie, his grandfather, purchased twenty acres of Alabama land, or, at least, had contracted for it, and erected a house, but death claimed him before he could pay for it. But this brilliant preacher started his career on the farm, yet he had a great desire for knowledge. He had heard big men preach and said he wanted to be a useful man some day.
It is needless to say that his early school advantages were limited, being in the rural districts, where only three months was allowed for school, and take a child a long time

thus it would be to get an education going to school three months out of the twelve. Young McKenzie had been inspired by his mother, who spent much of her time on her knees praying to God for the life of her children, and then around the fireside she would talk to them about the future. She had faith in her own children.
Seeing his education was coming slow, this young boy started out one day to seek better educational facilities and walked from Riley to Thomassville, Ala., a distance of fifty miles. Wanting more education and knowing that it required money, he left the farm, got a job at a saw mill, where he received better wages. He laid it aside until he got enough to enter Selma university. All the time he had been reading the lives of Abraham Lincoln, Frederick Douglass and other men who had worked to the top, and this helped him to think that there was a future for him.
After being in Selma university for a short time he took the county examination and became a small professor, but at the same time continued to study, saving his money to better prepare himself. Much of his early religious training is due to the Sunday school, and it was when thirteen that he was converted and joined Anderson chapel, colored Methodist Episcopal church. While yet under his majority years he held five offices in the church—trustee, steward, class leader, Sunday school superintendent and church secretary.
It was in February, 1901, in the church of his choice and where he had started his Christian career that he was licensed to preach by the Rev. P. Wheels, presiding elder; J. II. Bluster, pastor. In November of the same year he was admitted into the conference at Opelika, Ala. Bishop L. H. Holsey presiding, and the same conference recognized him by electing him a lay delegate to the general conference.
Now he thought that it was time for him to better prepare for the ministry, so he closed out his school and then entered Paline college, Augusta, Ga. He worked in lumber mills and doing other hard work during vacations preparing for college. He graduated from Paline, college department, 1909 and then went to Gammon Theological seminary, Atlanta, Ga., and completed the theological course there 1911. Since entering the active ministry he has continued his studies. He has pastored at the following places with gratifying success, beginning at Talahassee, Fla., at year: Sha-

one year; Congers, Ga.; Bessemer,
Ala.; Anniston, Ala., and his present
charge in this town. Additions to the
membership and increase in active
Christian work were noted at each
church which he served. Dr. McKenzie is one of the men whom the church
will surely call to even higher official
duties in the near future.
NEW POST FOR T. E. TAYLOR.
New York Branch Y. M. C. A. Gains
Zealous Worker.
Thomas E. Taylor, the new secretary
of the West Fifty-third street branch
of the Young Men's Christian association,
New York, entered upon the duties
of his office at the branch Sptt. 1.
He is a native of London, Canada.
Besides the position of letter carrier
at his native home, which he held for
six years, Mr. Taylor was a member
of the board of directors and a prominent worker in the boys' department
of the central branch of the Young Men's Christian association in London,
Canada.
For the past eleven years Mr. Taylor was secretary of the Y. M. C. A. at Indianapolis, Ind. Under his administration the membership increased from seventeen to 1,000. A new Y. M. C. A. building was also erected at a cost of over $100,000 and a splendid religious and educational work established.
His resignation from the branch at Indianapolis has caused much regret. The committee of management of the Indianapolis branch tendered Mr. Taylor a magnificent farewell reception at the branch building at Indianapolis on Monday evening. Aug. 28, at which many prominent citizens in speeches and other tokens of esteem bore testimony of his Christian character, splendid manhood and executive ability.
Race Congress to Meet In Washington. The call for a national congress of colored American citizens, to meet in Washington the latter part of September, to discuss matters pertaining to the welfare of the race in this country has well nigh met with country wide approval. When the date for the meeting is announced the delegates from the various bodies will know how to make up their budget in cash and time. The meeting will be an epoch making event in our racial history.

ABLE ORGANIZER FOR CLUBWOMEN
Mrs. Victoria Clay Haley Enters New Field.
WOMAN OF BROAD CULTURE
National Association Considered Fortunate in Securing the Services of Noted Leader In Religious, Social and Fraternal Movements—Activities of the New Promoter.
By N. BARNETT DODSON.
Comment almost nation wide is being made on the wisdom of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs, which held its biennial convention at Baltimore in August, on the election of Mrs. Victoria Clay Haley of St. Louis as national organizer.
Mrs. Haley is eminently qualified by education, experience and executive ability to fill with credit to the association the office to which she has been unanimously elected. She is often referred to as the queen of platform orators.
As a fraternal, social and religious worker Mrs. Haley's record for twenty years is dotted with rich achievements-studded with diadems of national service. Mrs. Haley has just recently retired from the position of royal grand matron of the united grand chapter of the Order of Eastern Star for Missouri and jurisdiction. She has traveled extensively and is well known and greatly beloved for strong personality, devotion to racial interest and sincerity of purpose. During her administration as royal grand matron of the Order of Eastern
M.
Star for Missouri and jurisdiction Mrs. Haley made an unprecedented record by covering the remotest parts of the jurisdiction, which extends through Oregon, Montana and Nebraska and into New Mexico. Besides in the above named order, she has labored faithfully in church, Sunday school and the Allen Christian Endeavor league, in which she was highly successful. While Mrs. Haley has been active in many good movements for human betterment for the past twenty years, it seems that she is now more anxious to serve than ever before. In her new field she will have the opportunity of her life to reach the unreached women of the race and show to them the benefits of being organized.
Outside of purely racial movements Mrs. Haley bears the pround distinction of being the leader of the woman suffrage movement in Missouri among the colored women. She is also the first woman of our race, and the only one, to hold membership in the state commission of Missouri appointed by former Governor Hadley to select and purchase a site upon which to erect a building now known as the State Industrial School For Colored Girls.
The National Association of Clubwomen is fortunate in securing Mrs. Haley's services to execute the big demands of this important phase of its work. In consenting thus to do Mrs. Haley makes a sacrifice, as one would term it, of many lines of activities of profit and pleasure on the lecture platform, the schoolroom and in social and religious life. But a woman of her genius will use the experience gained in all of these phases of uplift work in carrying forward the work in her new field.
Mrs. Haley is the estimable wife of James L. Haley of St. Louis, who for more than twenty years has been a clerk in the St. Louis postoffice, where he is rated as one of the best regardless of race or color.
Although in public service, to which she sacrifices much of her time, Mrs. Haley is a lover of her home and is an excellent housewife. One has but to be fortunate enough to visit her home to see at a glance that there is a charming personality back of that home. Mr. and Mrs. Haley have not been blessed with any children, but they are giving a life of service for other children. We predict for the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs a successful two years of notable achievements in the department over which Victoria Clay Haley presides.
