There is one thing certain: Should President Wilson run for a second term the votes that the members of our race would give him, taking the entire country over, would not make a Jersey mosquito humpbacked to carry. There are a great many things that can be said about us, but it cannot be truthfully said that we are ignorant enough to let the same flame scorch us twice. Usually it dawns on us when we have enough of a thing and no amount of persuasion can change our minds.
Our President has made a record in the matter of race discrimination that has never been equaled and perhaps never will. In his speech at Independence Hall, Philadelphia, July 4, 1914, he said he would set up no barriers against any praticular people and that he would treat one race the same as he did another and all during his can didacy for President he gave assurance that he would not discriminate.
Notwithstanding these assurances of support of the poincipes of equality before the law and in government affairs, great discrimination has been practiced not only in the departments over which the President has direct control, but also in appointments that are made by the President himself. Under Republican administration the policy was pursued of appointing a colored man to fill a vacancy created by the resignation, death or expiration of term of a man' our race. How this policy has been carried out under Democratic administration need not be received here It was a case of "turn the rascals out" with a vengeance.
There always comes that day of reckoning, and while the Democrats boastfully claim they do not want, nor would they have, the Negro vote, without it they will bite the dust forever. We have nothing to lose and all to gain by throwing our support with any other party—Progressive, Prohibition or Republican: and let it be said to our credit we have learned the lesson well the Democrats have taught us—have graduated from their school never to return. The few who may stick to the enemy deserve the ill treatment that is accorded them.
When the representation of the South is cut, as it will be, according to the actual voting population, the voice of this "solid section" will be so feeble that it will not be heard above the Mason and Dixon line. It is up to us to sit in the saddle patiently, but alert and ready to dig in the spurs and start at a second's notice. There is something worth while in store for us, and we must gat it before the store closes.
The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888
Tulsa, Okla.,—Adam Manuel died in Colorado recently and already there is a race on among some of the inhabitants of Muskogee county to get appointment as guardians of his children. There are five of his children living, and the elder inherited the allotments of two who are dead, but the guardianship is sought because of Luther Manuel, a minor son, who is believed to be the richest man of the Race in the world.
When the allotments were made for the Manuel family, those of Luther, 13, and Rafield his brother, were in a locality where land was worth less for farming products. Their father complained that the land was valueless but he was unable to have any change made.
It turned out that the allotment of Luther, believed to be worthless, was in the heart of the Cushing oil field. Since that field has been developed, nearly six years ago, his income from it has amounted to from $20,000 to $25,000 per month. An effort is being made to have a sound, reliable and intelligent business man selected to be the boy's guardian.
THREATENED WITH SHORTAGE OF LABOR
Birmingham, Ala.—This city is threatened with a shortage of labor owing to the exodus of the large numbers of members of the Race leaving for work in Pennsylvania, on the Pennsylvania Railway, the Virginia mines and the tobacco helds and factories in the northern states. Fully 5,000 have left this city in the past two months, and as many more are expected to leave. No one blames the men for leaving, for they are getting $50 to $400 a day in the north for work they only receive $1.5 to $00 a day here.
People are crying that the agents are taking away all their servants. Officials of the town are begging the men to stay, saying that reports from the northern section of the country say that it is too cold for them to live, but the relatives of the men already gone says that letters from these men in the north say that there is plenty of work and good wages, better homes and no Jim Crow laws.
DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, SEPT. 30, 1916
KNOW MEN BY DEEDS.
PRESIDENT WILSON AGAINST NEGRO.
What a change is sentiment of a Republican Convention the nominee of 1916 receiving on 2 votes in 1916 to come back in 1916 to be the overwhelming choice when three ballots are taken for the same office. The people instead of the interests made such a result a certainty. My prevention attitude was anti-Hughes and counter attack on the venerable "Col. George H Harvey's" prophecy I acknowledge was not in order. Being young in the journalistic game I could not forsee the coming avalanche that took place in Chicago on those memorable days, Friday and Saturday, in that convention assembled bringing to the fore one of the grandest characters the Republican Party ever produced, who in accepting the proffered nomination telegraphed in part these words: "I stand for an Americanism which knows no ulterior purpose; for a patriotism which is single and complete. Whether native or naturalized or whatever race of creed we have but one country, and we do not tolerate any division of allegiance."
Could King Solomon in all his grandeur and sophistry in Holy Writ make plainer to the people in words or thought as did the jurist who resigned from the Supreme Court bench to accept a nomination to the highest office within the gift of an intelligent voting population?
In 1912, the Republican Party was rent from stem to stearn by dissension within and without the ranks by a gigantic party feud ending in the formation of a third party causing its defeat, putting in office a Scholastic Acrobat, who up to date has held the office but has never filled it as his Democratic predecessors have; especially when one compares his partly completed term in the handling of foreign affairs.
How dreadful the comparison seems to a student of American history, to which the present incumbent of the White House has contributed many valuable text books on that subject. I admit his administration so far has been a trying one, a large brain active at all times to the duties of Executive execution. How narrow and puerile he has assumed the duties envolved upon him to formulate policies for a World Power to guide itself through the vicissitudes of time.
Strict accountability, too proud to fight, ending up a few days with loud acclaim, "I am in a fighting mood." A recitation of his watchful waiting attitude is too well known by the American people to tire them further with his dilatory tactics. The popular question is, do we want four more years of Wilsonism? or do we want an administration that will give protection to American industries, increase in revenue to a depleted treasury, a formidable army and navy which will guarantee promotion to its enlisted mcn, black or white, who are efficient? A merchant marine controlled by American capital? Respect always to American citizens and a quick decisive det Mexico? Can the estimated Negro vote of nearly 300,000 in states where the Negro vote is counted stop the on rushing tide in part of Wilsonism? Will the balance of power that has been claimed in former Presidential campaigns be shattered in 1916?
Will the Negro leader form a National Wide Organization, to compel a consistent registration, a payment in full of poll taxes, a true certification of property qualification? All of these questions are momentous. The following is a nearly correct tabulation of the Negro vote by states where the vote is really counted.
Manila, P. I.—Experiments made with a new gun powder invented by Troopers William Peters and Kyle Arnell of the Ninth Cavalry, stationed at this point, were highly successful. Tests in a regulation army rine at Fort Camp Stotsenburg with the powder showed that it would send a steel bullet half way through a steel plate one inch

THE NEGRO AND THE ADMINISTRATION.
It required more than ordinary assurance for the man who has done more than any other President since the Civil war to fasten the shackles of bondage on the American freedman, to stand at the humble log cabin at Hodgenville, Ky., and pronounce a eulogy upon the great emancipator.
In the light of President Wilson's own contemptible treatment of the Negro, his praise of Lincoln, the plain man of common people, the product of poverty and obscurity, was false and shallow
Bringing to Washington all the prejudices of his southern birth and rearing, surrounding himself with men of the same inherited feelings, Mr. Wilson early gave to his administration, so far as the Colored man was concerned, the stamp of snobbery, vindictive ness and ignorance, and these traits have characterized it from the time of the removal of J.C Napier as register of the treasury to the present day.
NEGRO MAY NOT WORK FOR U. S.
Not even the splendid patriotism of the black heroes of the Tenth Cavalry, who went to their death at Carriazal as the result of the President's policy of timidity and blundering in Mexico, sufficed to move him from his course of Negro-bating. The Colored man, under Woodrow Wilson, may die for his country, but he may not serve it in civilian life save under the sign of the "Jim Crow."
Beginning with Napier three years ago, President Wilson has persistently pursued a policy of segregation that has brought unmerited hardship and shame to thousands of American citizens. Presidents Taft and Roosevelt encouraged deserving and intelligent Negroes by giving them positions in the federal service. President Wilson quickly gave evidence of one of his most characteristic traits by surrendering to southern Negro haters of the Vardaman type. In a matter of plain justice to his Colored fellow citizens he was "too proud to fight."
DRIVE FREEDMEN FROM SERVICE
He did recognize the justice of the claim of the Negroes to the treasury position which a Colored man had held for more than twenty-five years, and at first nominated an Oklahoma Negro; but he promptly withdrew it when notice was served upon him by the Democratic Race fanatics in Congress that no Negroes would be confirmed. Even the post of minister to Hayti, always filled by a black man, went to a white man. If Mr. Wilson preach-

Negro Poultry Woman Wins More Honors.
Louisville, Ky.—At the Kentucky State Fair, held here this month, Frank R. Willis, the first man to introduce the Cornish chicken hereabouts, swept practically all the honors in a poultry, show equal in numbers and class to the big New York shows.
His Cornish cock, "Mohawk," prize winner in 1915 was again awarded first prize and "Standing Bear III," "Mohawk's" son was second. Mr. Willis' entries took first, second, third, fourth and fifth in the hen class, and third cockerel, in open competition
Stock from eggs purchased from Willis took first and fourth pullet, first and fourth cockerel, and first and second pen.
Colored Girls Make Good in Factory.
Philadelphia, Pa.—I. Redesky, manager of the shirt waist factory at the northwest corner of 22d St. and Ridge avenue, declares that his experiment of hiring colored girls has proven eminently satisfactory.
The factory is running on full time, with an average out put of from 300 to 400 dozen per week. During August the manager gave the girls two ice cream receptions and and one watermelon feast.
Visitors are always welcome to come to inspect the factory
ed the "new freedom" he practiced the "new bondage."
The new order of things at Washington quickly became apparent and asystematic policy of segregation in the executive departments was under way, instigated first by Secretary McAdoo and Postmaster General Burleson, who had many imitators. By the summer of 1912 the segregation of Negro clerks in the treasury department and the postoffice was an accomplished fact.
It was Mr. Wilson's theory that the problem presented was "human, not political." The rapacity with which hungry Democratic office seekers scrambled for the 15,000 government positions carrying salaries amounting to more than $8,000,000 per annum, which under Republican administration, had been filled by self respecting and intelligent Negroes, indicated that he was right, but not in a sense reflecting credit on human nature.
The segregation begun by McAdoo and Burleson under Wilson has spread through the country. It is the fixed policy of the present administration. The obnoxious theory of "Jim Crow" intolerance has fastened like a cancer in the political and social fabric of the nation.

The members of Scott Church are now planning to do one big thing. Think what it is—a $500.00 rally. They are going to raise this money in just a few weeks.
Services Sunday were very good. An impressive air was put on the meetings by the fact that the Ushers' Club was organized. Hence every comer was met at the door by an usher. This club was organized at the suggestion of Mr. L. H. Lightner, who took the lead and was first to act.
The Epworth League is planning for a special program for the second Sunday. The Women's Home Missionary Society will have their monthly meeting on the second Thursday evening.
Sunday morning the pastor will speak on the subject, "The heart of the Fool."
Club No. 2, whose members are Mrs. Emma Davis, Mrs. H. John, Mrs. Richards, Mrs. H. Campbell, Mrs. Higgins, also Misses Clara Steele and Saunders will meet their Captain, Mr Geo. Ross, Sunday morning to arrange to raise their portion of the $500.00.

Preparations are under way for celebrating the semi-centennial of the founding of Zion church, an event so bound up with the history and development of this community, that its commemoration will necessarily attract widespread interest. The programme of activities will cover a period of eight days, and the plan is so perfect and arranged so as to both present the unique history of the largest and oldest church among Negroes in this section, and also the development of the race along all lines of educational and artistic development. Every worker of whatever profession or line will be asked to place on exhibition some articles of his handiwork, which will be judged by experts, who shall determine suitable awards. There will be also an instructive, entertaining programme each night prepared along such lines as will give point and expression to the occasion. The community may be prepared for something unique in the history of the West. The last week in November is the date of the celebration. The occasion is ZION'S GOLDEN JUBI LEE.
The morning service last Sunday witnessed a splendid attendance which was enriched and refreshed by the pastor's timely sermon, the subject of which was 'Prayer the Deciding Factor in Spirit Conflict.' The delivery presented with force and clearness the one secret of spiritual conquest.
Next Sunday we hope to see a full auditorium at both services. In the evening the church will observe the "Communion of the Lord's Supper." No one in fellowship should miss this occasion. Come in the spirit of prayer.
On Tuesday evening, October 3rd, the pupils of Miss Beatrice Thrashley will give their annual recital. The work of this excellent class is worthy the attendance of all.
The members will not forget the mid-week prayer service on Wednesday night. All the friends are welcome.

Officials of Militant Organization of National Importance Issue Final Word on Matters Pertaining to Great Meeting to Be Hold In Washington For Two Days, Beginning Oct. 4.
By N. BARNETT DODSON.
Hillburn, N. Y.—President Byron Gunner of the National Equal Rights league has issued the final word on the coming Citizens' Rights Congress, to be held at the John Wesley A. M. E. Zilon church, Fourteenth and Corcoran streets, Washington, Wednesday and Thursday, Oct. 4-5. The league's meeting will be held on Friday, Oct. 6. Cheering news is being received daily from many sections of the country of the active work being done to have delegates present in large numbers when the congress opens. The movement is a broad one, got up in the open

and led by the people themselves;
hence the response to Dr. Gunner and
Secretary W. Monroe Trotter's call is
all the more liberal. It has also been
announced that New York and Brook-
lyn will send several representatives
to the meeting armed with facts hitherto not published on movements in
erto not published on movements in
race.
No better place could be selected for holding such a meeting than at the nation's capital. No better time could have been decided upon than the date here announced. The geographical location is very significant. From Washington, almost in a direct line, is Appomattox Court House, in Virginia, where the proud Lee was forced to surrender his army after a long war to the wise and sagacious Grant, the Napoleon of the northern army. And, again, as a royal reminder to those who think lightly about our nativity and citizenship in this country, there is Jamestown. Va., whose historic significance is too well known with reference to the colored American to need any comment whatsoever.
These points of national import ought to afford the delegates to the congress and those who deliver addresses both inspiration and ammunition with which to make comparisons on the status of the race at various times, beginning at Jamestown centuries ago, then lead up to Appomattox, and then behold what manner of segregation with which the race is surrounded at the citadel of freedom and liberty.
The Rev. Mr. Gunner in the final call says: "I appeal to our people in all sections to come together in a national congress of colored Americans to voice the feelings and views of the race on the shameful conditions surrounding us and to decide upon the most effectual ways and means for combating color segregation and all other forms of color discrimination now practiced against us.
"The very general and earnest response which the preliminary call, issued more than a month ago, has received is both gratifying and encouraging. Particularly gratifying has been the favorable attitude of the colored newspapers toward this timely movement. The colored press seems to be unanimous in its indorsement of the race congress idea.
"Many letters of hearty and earnest indorsement that have been received from men and women living in various sections of our country, all urging that the time is ripe and most opportunity for a great getting together of our people in defense of their most sacred interests, show that the call for a great race congress has touched a responsive chord in the thought and hearts of our people that is scarcely less than nation wide.
"The passion for liberty and the determination to have it for ourselves seem to be growing among us. Our people seem as never before to be waking up to the need and importance of earnest cooperation." The scattered leaders of 10,000,000 of oppressed colored Americans should get together and impress the public mind with the fact of our growing determination not to remain half slave in this country. But we cannot do this without unity of plan and heartiness in co-operation."

PENNSYLVANIA PYTHIANS.
State Grand Lodge to Held 1917 Session at Pittsburgh.
Grand Vice Chancellor D. P. Townes of the Knights of Pythias of Pennsylvania is taking time by the forelock in the matter of arrangements for the meeting of the state grand lodge and encampment of the uniform rank of the order for 1917. At the meeting called by the grand vice chancellor, held recently at Odd Fellows' hall in Pittsburgh, in which city the grand lodge will meet, fifteen lodges in Pittsburg and vicinity were included in the call.
Plans are being mapped out for the entertainment of the Courts of Calanthe, delegates, visitors and a suitable place for the encampment of the uniform rank, which will number close on to 2,000. This latter phase of the arrangements is being looked after by Brigadier General John Childress and staff.
The order in the state increases in numbers from year to year, and the fact that the grand lodge is to meet in Pittsburgh for the 1917 session has created much interest among the officials and members of the various lodges. The officials of the order in the state have set their standard high for every feature of entertainment of the grand lodge meeting and will leave nothing undone that might assist them in accomplishing their purpose.

Rev. James Washington, pastor of Campbell A. M. E. church for the past three years, is transferred to the California Conference and has been appointed to the church in San Francisco. He came to the Colorado Conference in 1906, and pastored two years in Phoenix, Ariz. One year in Albuquerque, N. M., 4 years in Cheyenne, Wyoming and from there he came to Denver to Campbell Chapel. All of these places he has met with success. He has remodeled the church this year, and raised $3,159.52, also there has been 124 accessions this year. He leaves the church in a better condition, both spiritually and financially, than it has ever been in its history. He was elected President of the Ministerial Alliance for three years in succession and under his leadership the Alliance has done some very creditable things. One which everyone is 'amillar with, the "Jones" Case.' The Annual Conference, which convened in Pueblo, Sept. 20th, was successful in every way. Rev. Washington soon became an influential pastor in Den-
Knights Templars Show Steady Growth Fourteen commanderies were present at the recent sixty-ninth annual conclave of the order of Knights Templars of Pennsylvania, held at Altoona. The growth of the order in the state was a noticeable feature of the reports. Sir William Johnson of Mount Olive commandery. No. 27. Philadelphia, was elected most eminent grand commander.

FATHER F. T. BRUCE WRITES OF HIS EXCELLENT EASTERN TRIP.
Washington, D. C., Sept. 11, 1916. The B. M. C. opened its Session by Bro James Colman, chairman of the local committee, Dr. J. C. Norwood acting as Master of Ceremonies. Rev. W. J. Howard delivered the vocation. The Hon. Lewis Brown slow, member of the Board of Commissioners, was introduced, and delivered a welcome address on behalf of the municipality, followed by Prof. Wm. Pickens of Judge W. R. Morris, of Minnesota. An address on behalf of the District of Columbia was made by D. G. M. Chas. Hill. Gr. Director R. L. Roberts of Boston, Mass., responded. The D. M. N. Governor Mary L. Parker welcomed the delegates and friends on behalf of Household of Ruth of Dis. of Columbia. Mrs. Mary L. Taylor of Chicago, Ill., responded fittingly to the address.
The former D. G. M. Wm. I. Lee on behalf of the friends and G. M.'s living in District of Columbia, presented the G. M. with a beautiful inscribed gavel. G. M. Bro. Ed Morris accepted the gavel in a few well chosen words. Mrs. Lulu Tyler, chairman of Committee on Arrangements for Household, presented a gavel to the M. W. S. S. Mrs. Mary A. Parker, who accepted the gavel in an appropriate address to the women.
Bro. James W. Coleman, for D. G.
Denver will feel keenly the loss of Rev. Washington whose wise judgment, affable manner and frankness has won all erstwhile discordant people.
Mr. S. Shakelford of Los Angeles, Calif., a retired business man, while enroute from the East, visiting Cincinnati, Ohio, Illinois and Missouri, stopped over as the house guest of parties to him. He leaves a well organized choir, Usher's Club and many live auxiliaries in the church. His good deeds were not limited to Campbell, because of his many fraternal affiliations he became the idol of our secret societies, women and men. Much more again could be said of his sterling qualities and the high esteem in which he is held by all classes and phases of society. His preaching crowded Campbell, his new progressive ideas won many new members. All we can say to that leading church in San Francisco is that your gain is our loss. May he do well and continue to prosper.
Pennsylvania Masone May Build Homes The local lodges of the Masonic order in the Seventh Pennsylvania district have renewed their effort to perfect plans for the erection of a modern Masonic temple in Pittsburgh.

SCARBOROUGH LAUDS LATE
DR. WILLIAM HAYES WARD
Noted Editor Was Negro's Friend,
Says President of Wilberforce.
By request of the New York Independent Dr. W. S. Scarborough, the scholarly president and able executive of the Wilberforce (O.) university, has written the following appreciation of the services rendered by the late William Hayes Ward to the colored race. The article by Dr. Scarborough appears in the September issue of the Independent.
Dr. Scarborough says: "With keenest sorrow I learn that a valued personal friend of the Negro race has passed to the great beyond, and I gladly accept the invitation to give a brief appreciation of Dr. William Hayes Ward's work for the Negro. He has virtually devoted his life to the interests of the race, to its emancipation, to its education, to its struggles, to its ambitions, to its possible future, without a particle of prejudice.
"Belleving that God made mankind all of one blood and that the Negro should have free enjoyment of the rights and privileges of any human being and of any American citizen, Dr. Ward arrayed himself always on that platform and fearlessly fought the battles of our race.
"Proscription, segregation, mob violence, lynchings, denial of vote, all race distinctions, all the thousand and one indignities, persecutions and cruelties and crimes against the Negro wherever practiced, have found in him one who denounced vigorously and unsparingly all such as unlawful, unjust, unchristian and inhuman.
"His work did not stop with his strenuous endeavors to right the wrongs done the Negro, but he maintained that the education of the race should be of the highest type, declared and demonstrated its intellectual capacity through many Negro contributions to the independent on all lines of thought and encouraged all its ambitions and aspirations as a people.
"Everything connected with the race won his personal interest, and he never wavered in his allegiance. Public opinion never warped his convictions. Nor did personal interest ever cause him to swerve from the course he deemed right in regard to the race.
"There was no mere sentimentalism in this. He was a humanitarian of the most royal type, espousing our cause because he believed it a just one and because we were lowly, weak, defenseless and friendless. So his warm heart, his keen brain and his facile pen have united for over fifty years to declare through the Independent and every other possible channel that he was the Negro's stanch friend. The Negro people have lost a most noble, loyal champion, one they will ever hold in grateful remembrance. May his mantle rest upon and forever infold the Independent."
Dr. Ward died at his home in Berwick, Me., Aug. 28, 1916, in the eighty second year of his age.
RACE PREJUDICE NORTH
George E. Wibecan Entree Suit Against
Theater Official in Brooklyn
In the south the colored people are lynched upon the most filmy charges or suspicion of guilt when charged with crime, and in the north they are discriminated against at sight in the matter of places of public amusement or social comforts. A case in point at the north is being tried out by the courts in Brooklyn. George E. Wibecan well known and popular in social and political circles and a clerk in the general postoffice for a quarter of a century or more, entered suit against John Crawford, treasurer of the Empire theater, on Tuesday, Sept. 12, for refusing, as Mr. Wibecan alleges, to sell him two theater seat tickets.
Mr. Wibecan in making the charge against the theater official called the attention of the court to section 514 of the penal law of the state. Mr. Wibecan says he went to the theater and stayed in line for some time, and when he finally reached the box office and asked for two tickets for the performance for the next day he was told: "We haven't got any. Get out of line." He received the same reply, he said, when he asked for two tickets for Friday night, Sept. 8.
Manager Curtain of the theater in court told the magistrate the box office man did not refuse to sell Wibecan tickets because of his color, but because there were no tickets left. The case was put over for further hearing. Some time ago Mr. Wibecan started suit against a downtown restaurant keeper because he refused to serve him and gained an award of $100 when the case was brought into the courts.
Veterans' Sons In Fifteenth Infantry. Sons of Union soldiers are in command of the Fifteenth infantry. N. G. N. Y. Major Munson Morris, in command of the First (Harlem, New York) battalion, is the son of an officer who led Negro troops in the civil war. Lieutenant Colonel Charles Hinton of the Second battalion is the son of Major William Hinton—one of John Brown's officers, who enlisted the first Negro soldier in the United States service.
The Outlook at the Hampton Institute
Things are looking bright at the
Hampton (Va.) Institute for a big en-
rollment for the 1916-17 school year.
One especially interesting course in the
trade school is the one for training a
selected number of male students in
plumbing and steamfitting. Hampton
aims to make men as well as mecha-
lisms whom the public will respect rather
than ridicule, and it is succeeding at
the job.

MRS. EVANS WINS.
Never was such unity of spirit and fraternalism manifested in any organization as was shown in Columbine Temple, No. 11, S. M. T., during the past few weeks which ended with a play and entertainment at Shorter church, Thursday night. The Temple was divided into two clubs—Mrs. Lawson, captain of Club No. 1, and Mrs. Evans, captain of Club No. 2. Both captains aided by their co-workers, worked zealously as only is the characteristic of these two women. The Worthy Princess was so elated over their vivid eagerness and ambition, offered a prize of a beautiful laveller to the captain bringing in the larger report, which was won by Mrs. Evans, captain of Club No. 2. Mrs. Evans offered a prize to her co-workers. A prize of $10 to the one selling the most tickets which was won by Mrs. Downing, she having sold $35 worth of tickets. A grand time was enjoyed by all present.

Y. M. C. A. NOTES
No better address was listened to than the one given by the Rev. William C. Gaberson, pastor of Mount Rermon Baptist Church, on the subject, "The World and the Church." The membership social, Tuesday evening, opening up of the social work for the fall season, was a very pleasant affair. The men played games, and had a good time in general. A committee of ladies consisting of Mrs. King, Mrs. Sprague, Mrs. Lightner and Mrs. Norris, served refreshments. The social work committee, of which George C. King is chairman, saw to it that everyone had a pleasant time. At the close the men sang "Onward, Christian Soldiers."
On Sunday afternoon, October 1, the religious work for the fall season will open up. The principal address will be delivered by Rev. C. E. Carroll, pastor of the Fifth Avenue M. E. Church. Short addresses will also be made by pastors of our local churches. Miss Mattie A. Booker, director of music in the Arkansas Baptist College, Little Rock, Ark., will render special piano selections. The program begins at four o'clock. The boys' work will also open up on Sunday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock. A special program will be rendered under the leadership of Mr. Herbert S. Williams.
Next Monday evening the social work committee will entertain the Christian Endeavor Society of Shorter A. M. E. church.

Mary
Mrs. James Washington, once a member of the Taka Art Club, but later the organizer and encourager of the Phyllis Wheatley Literary and Art Club, easily won her way into the hearts of the Denver folk by her sweet disposition and unassuming manner. She was an ardent worker in the Taka Art Club, causing the Club ladies to recognize her worth several times by going in a body to her church functions. She leaves many friends behind her who hope for her to soon return to them.
The W. M. M. S. met Thursday afternoon, September 21st, at Pueblo, Mrs. Dorcas Watson presided. The reports were good and the program was excellent. Mrs. James Washington read a paper telling of her trip as delegate to the Quadrennial Conference which met in Detroit, Oct. 21, 1915. She gave every detail of the missionary work and what "our women are doing." Her paper was highly appreciated. Her faithful work, together with the splendid report she brought from Detroit caused her to be elected President of the W. M. M. S. of the Conference Branch of Colorado. With deep regret we give Rev. and Mrs. Washington up. May success be theirs in their new field of labor.
Cause of Labor Exodus From the South
Out from Savannah, Ga., recently
there has come a strong wailing pro-
test against the efforts of some north-
ern agencies, which the writer of
the protest claims are luring the colored
laborers north at an alarming rate.
Draining the south of Negro workers,
the letter says, and to it is due the un-
settling of labor conditions. Be this
as it may, let no one be deceived as
to the exact cause of the great exodus
of colored people from the south, says
N. R. Dodson. In this connection
many injustices to the race must be
borne in mind, and among them are
lynching, segregation, low wages and
the political enmilixion of the colored
voters of the south. The generation
of young, educated colored men of the

THE NEWSPAPER MAN'S PRAYER.
"O. Lord, I beseech Thee to forgive those who read our paper on a credit, and when the poor newspaper man comes to collect, they fly off the handle and treat the poor servant man so mean that he feels so humiliated that he doesn't know what to do. O. Lord, teach them that the paper cannot live without money; teach them that to pay their subscription they are having 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 I ord, 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."—Amos.

STREAK OF YELLOW.
With a pocket full of money
Any coward can be brave;
When his skies are bright and sunny
Any man his flag can wave;
But the test of every fellow
Is disaster's sudden blow,
And if he is streaked with yellow
It is then that it will show.
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 a man is streaked with yellow
When he's pressed, it's sure to
show.
Can you stand the gaff of losing;
Can you battle to the end;
Take the cutting and the bruising;
And not let your courage bend?
For the test of pluck is never
When you're leading in the race;
But are you as game as ever
When another makes the pace?
Takes Out Blots and
You have tried the rest,now try the best

AUTHOR OF FILM ANSWERS CRITICS
Motive Was Race Defense, Says Dr. W. S. Smith. PICTURES AS EDUCATORS.
New Jersey Minister Gives Seven Reasons In Justification of His Interest In Photo Play Known as "The Colored American Winning His Suit." Kind to His Enemies.
The Rev. W. S. Smith, D. D., pastor of the Monumental Baptist church of Jersey City, N. J., is one of the most active ministers in New Jersey in all good movements for the advancement of the race along all lines. He is well and favorably known throughout the state and has been pastor of the above named church for fourteen years. Dr. Smith is the author of the photo play produced by the Douglass Film company, entitled "The Colored American Winning His Suit." The story was written in answer to "The Birth of a Nation."
As the author of the play and for his activity in its promotion Dr. Smith has been criticised by some of his fellow ministers, who do not believe that a preacher should write moving picture stories or engage in their promotion as a business. Dr. Smith does not neglect any of his duties as pastor of the Monumental Baptist church for other vocations. He is naturally industrious and uses his spare time in study and thought for the good of the race; hence he bears the criticism of his fellow ministers in a generous, true Christian spirit.
Having replied at length to his critics previously, Dr. Smith again says: "I shall once more endeavor to clarify the visions of saints and sinners on the subject. I have for a good many years noticed that the motion picture was being abused rather than used and have long had a desire to see it used in the way most helpful to the public. About eighteen months ago the picture known as 'The Birth of a Nation' had its first appearance before the public. That picture does most severely criticise the Negro and his friends.
"It has stirred up ill feeling and race riots in a great many cities. Much time and money have been spent to break it, but it still plays on. I conceived the idea that holding mass meetings, making big, loud and long speeches, rioting and throwing brick-bats and overripe eggs all failed as answers to the picture. My reasons for the interest I have taken in moving pictures follows:
"First.—Because I consider it to be a legitimate business that is closely allied to ministerial and educational work and an agency through which one may 'go about doing good.' I am only discussing 'The Colored American Winning His Suit.'"
"Second.—Because through it we can answer 'The Birth of a Nation' and all similar pictures that seek to criticise and degrade the Negro race and its friends."
"Third.—Because it is a medium through which one may speak to millions of people and plead the Negroes' cause to the world as large as in no other way.
"Fourth.—Because it is an instrument through which we can portray the better side of Negro life, showing his progress from the depths of poverty and ignorance to the heights he has climbed in fifty years' time along all lines in religion, education, business and wealth.
"Fifth.—Because pictures speak a universal language that is understood and read by all.
"Sixth.—Because it can enter places and get a hearing where doors are closed against ministers and those who wish to plead our cause.
"Seventh.—Because it is a God given agency, the greatest yet known to man, for the transmission of truth and knowledge along all educational lines. Through it one may look back through the ages. It brings all of the world to the door of the poor, enabling them to see and know things heretofore hidden from their view.
"These are my reasons for writing the story and directing the making of the picture, and it is very gratifying to learn that wherever played the people have shown high appreciation for it. and it is being called for daily throughout the north, south, east and west."
