Honor Lincoln, Odd Fellows Entertainment Feb. 12, East Turner Hall ADMISSION 35 CENTS The papers formerly known as The Statesman and The Independent, have been merged into The Denver Star TWENTY-SEVENTH YEAR Number 172 DENVER, GOLORADO, SATURDAY, JAN. 27, 1917 City Federation Will Celebrate Centenary of Frederic Douglass' Birth. Odd Fellows to Celebrate Lincoln's Birthday. Great and vital causes are advanced by honoring the memory of their illustrious exponents. When the work of these moral heroes is yet unfinished or is being undone, the present-day struggle for humanity is strengthened by public observances of the anniversaries of the pioneers. Such events furnish the occasion to recall the careers and recite the noble utterances of the great advocates of reform and to urge devotion to their ideals. The sentimental appeal which goes with the centenary of the birth of a moral leader makes its celebration, if carried on in the spirit of its life-work, of telling help to the same cause today. Douglass Centennial, Feb. 14. Hence it is that the National Equal Rights League, representing the crusade of Colored Americans for rights and liberties till denied, urges the celebration of the centenary of the birth of that greatest of all Colored Champions of liberty and of Citizenship for Colored Americans, Frederick Douglass. all day Wednesday, February 14. The League advises that these observances be in the name of the equal rights cause, and that in every place where Colored Americans are numerous, an Equal Rights Committee or Equal League be formed to arrange the centenary observance of this great champion of equal rights. New Year's Message. This is the first great duty of our race collectively in the new year 1917 and is the League's New Year Message to the race. It will inspire our young people with respect for and pride in their racial strain to have brought out the wondrous ability of this man born a slave. It will give courage to our men and women to fight in an organized way color discrimination to learn of the brave stand taken by Douglass on many occasions. It will challenge the conscience of white Americans to know the life-struggle and the eloquent plea made by him for justice to his race. Greatness of Douglass. Douglass was the great Colored Abolitionist. An escaped slave, he eventually waged an independent campaign of agitation for the freedom of his own race. The approach his cetenary should be the signal for his people to rally to the standard of a fight of our race for rights denied because of our race. The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 JURY TO HEAR CASE OF "JIM CROW" SCHOOL ROOM. Mother of Colored Children Fights Segregation at Downington. West Chester, Pa.—Several weeks ago Mrs. Rebecca Simms, Colored, of Downing-town, refused to send her two daughters to the public school because she contended, that they were discriminated against on account of their color. She was twice arrested for violation of the compulsory educational law, and on the second occasion was fined $4.40, which she declined to pay, and was committed to prison by Justice Hunter Wills Through her counsel she applied to the court for appeal from the summary conviction. At the hearing she testified that all the Colored children had been taken from the five lower grades and placed in a basement room under the care of one teacher, a young Colored man. TEXAS COURTS DECLARE HANDS OFF THE PULLMAN Austin, Tex.—The Supreme Court refused a writ of error in the case of the State of Texas against the Galveston & San Antonio Railway Suit was instituted by the State against the railroad companies for penalties for violation of the Texas Jim Crow law by permitting colored passengers to ride in the same sleeping car with white people the court holding that the State had no case decided in favor of the railroad companies. Let there be fitting observance throughout the United States of America of the Centenary of Douglass, the orator the abolitionist, the editor the writer, the statesman, under the auspices of Equal Rights Committee, or Equal Rights League and the Citizens, all day February 14, 1917. Thus will our fight for rights be strengthened in the land which Douglass helped make one of freedom for all. BYRON GUNNER, President, Hillburn, New York. WM. MONROE TROTTER, Secretary, Cornhill, Boston. The City Federation Club of this city will conduct Doug lass memorial services at Zion Baptist Church. February 11th while on the 12 Lincoln's Birth day will be celebrated at East Turner Hall by the Odd Fellows. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JAN. 27, 1917 Robt. Harris [Republican] Representative Introduces "Anti-Tipping Bill." The Denver Star before election and at the primaries did all it could to defeat Robert Harris one of our assembly men because he has now done what we expected him to do, and that is, to introduce for the third time his "Anti-tipping" bill. The Star hopes that his colleagues with pigeon hole the same as it takes away money and livelihood from some without giving anything in its place. Mr. Harris wants to stop the public from voluntarily tipping certain class of servants, yet he does not provide how this certain class of servants will be reimbursed by their losses. They lose thru his bill and therefore he destroys and fails to construct. Any body, not an Assemblyman can do that. But let us turn on the light of reason on this "Anti-tipping" bill. A tip is a gratuity or an appreciation voluntarily shown by some one for some kind of service done. His bill makes it a crime to give or take a tip—that is—for a certain class, yet it permits the Fire Chief, Police department, Automobile drivers and all other persons not in the class named by his bill to receive any recognition, money cigars or what not and it is no crime in those cases to either give or take. A chief of the police or fire department can receive hundreds of dollars for service of their officers or men in their charge and rescuing of anybody from danger can get "a gift" or Carnegie medal; or if they happen to find a $50 watch or $500 check and the owner can "reward" them but a waiter, porter, bell boy and the chamber maids etc. cannot take 10 or 25 cents for doing the usual thing in an unusual manner, it is a crime. The Star wants to know wherein is the difference, as a gift is a gift and service is service no matter by whom performed. Howbeit that the money as tip, reward, recognignition as service, becomes tainted and criminal in one case and not in the other? These porters and maids get money from tourists outside of Denver and inside of Denver and spend the coaxed and hard earned cash with our Denver merchants thereby constantly help Colorado and her business men. To take away from these people such support which greatly aids in supplying families with the necessities of life, without putting something in its place at the same time, will cause men to steal for their families before they will permit them to go hungry. What is the difference between a "Xmas present" and "a tip"? The Star thinks such a bill is manifestly unfair and class legislation directed against a particular glass who can profit by what one class is forbidden by law to enjoy. His bill forbids you to do with your money as you please, restrains the liberty of the taker and punishes both for what was never a crime before. To give and take are both lawful actions, but the bill just arbitrarily declares them unlawful because Robert Harris says so. Senators and Representatives of the people, kill that pernicious measure. President Wilson Rewards a, mous fire of shot and shell at Waiving civil service regulations and making the appointment effective at once. President Wilson last Saturday rewarded Dolly Sarrior, one of the heroes of the engagement at Carrizal, Mexico by giving him a position as messenger in the war department. Mr. Sarrior was a quartermaster-sergeant of Troop C, Tenth Cavalry, aed in that fa- Carrazal he was wounded in the right wrist when Captain Boyd's command was ambushed by the forces of Carranza. This signal recognition of a valiant Colored man who stood to his country's flag at a moment that tried men's souls is regarded with pleasure by all who have heard the cheering. The size of the place accorded him is not half so much considered as the fine spirit which prompted the giving of it.—Broad Ax. Just smile and go on—Ed. SAVE THE FREDERICK DOUGLASS HOME! The City Federation of Colored Women's Clubs of Denver appeals to the Patriotic and Race Loving People of Denver to do their full duty towards this worthy movement—Douglass Centenary, to be Celebrated Feb. 11th, at Zion Baptist Church To the Race loving people of Denver: As President of the City Federation of Colored Women's Clubs of Denver, I appeal to you to do your full duty in this movements to save the magnificent homestead of Frederick Douglass on Cedar Hill, Anacostia, one of the picturesque spots in the country and dedicated as in no other spot to the preservation of the liberty and civic uplift of our 10,000,000 Colored Americans. Noting the several ineffectual attempts to raise the necessary funds to aid the trustees of the Douglass Home to redeem the property by paying off the accumulated indebtedness that hangs over it, the National Federation of Colored Women's Clubs at the Current biennial session in Baltimore last August took definite steps towards joining hands with this cause. A general committee was named to put into execution the plans thru which the objects sought may be attained. It is desired that "Cedar Hill" shall be a historical "Mecca" to which the race may come for inspiration and knowledge of its proud achievements in every phase of human activity The Negro's life and labors are inseparably entwined with the life and ideals of the American Nation; and at this store house shall be kept the records that shall establish our claim to immortality. The 100th Anniversary of the birth of Frederick Douglass approaches. Its significance ought to be made nation-wide thru a general movement to raise the money needed to clear out to our Home that marks the scenes of his best days. Conservative estimates place the amount needed at $15,000. This sum will satisfy the mortgage, restore the buildings and grounds to their natural beauty, and add the new features essential to the equipment of the premises as a creditable museum of art, literature and history. It will not be difficult for the progressive Negroes of America to raise this fund, if the proper effort is put forth and the campaign is systematically and intelligently directed. The time to begin this sacred mission is now. On Sunday afternoon February 11th at Zion Baptist Church, the centenary of Frederick Douglass will be held, under the auspices of the City Federation of Colored Women's Clubs of Denver. TEXAS A&M FIVE CENTS'A COPY. POWER OF THE SOUTH-ERN VOTER. Washington, D. C.-In shaping national legislation one vote in Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi pi, South Carolina, or Virginia is worth as much as five votes cast in Connecticut, New Jersey, Ohio, Michigan, Iowa, New Mexico or Idaho. The eight southern states enumerated cast a total of 511, 199 votes for the election of members to sit in the Sixty fourth Congress. This makes an average of 7,745 votes to each district, the entire number of districts returning 64 Democrats, one Republican and one Progressive. For the seven northern states mentioned, the total vote at the same time was 2,587.402, or an average of 39,-203 votes for each district, returning 50 Republicans and 16 Democrats. Thus, slightly over half a million southern voters have 66 spokesmen in the House of Representatives whereas it required more than two and a half million northern voters to secure equal representation. The inequality in voting power is the outcome, of course, of a basis of total population forming the several southern Congressional districts where the Ne gro is counted in, but his vote excluded. How long must this inequality continue? Are the North and the Republican party to supinely submit in definitely to this condition of affairs? Church Society Pays $7,000 in Dividends. Philadelphia, Pa—Shareholders of the first series stock of the Cherry Building and Loan Association received a few days ago dividends aggregating $7,000. The distribution was made by Chas. H Brooks, secretary. The association was organized twelve years ago by members of Cherry Memorial Baptist Church, then pastored by the Rev, W. A. Creditt. There have been made loans to the amount of $50,000 on thirty homes purchased for members and loans on stock amount to more than $30,000. Withdrawals have been allowed in the sum of $33,000. There has never been a dolar loss by bad investment or through dishonest officials. and we are appealing to every Negro boy and girl, man and woman to take a share in the redemption of this home. Will Denver do her share in this great work and thereby directly express her gratitude to the silent memory of Douglass, the orator, diplomat and statesman? Yours for the cause. Thetha Ector Miller.

YOUNG FOLKS TAUGHT TO APPRECIATE VALUE OF ART Hamptonians Learn That It Has a Prae- ticai Bearing on Making Life Better and Sweeter. “As practical as any of the trade courses, yet in no way lacking In the develypment of artistic ability, is the art course at Hampton institute,” says a writer in the Southern Workman. “This was demonstrated in an exhibit of work done by the boys’ classes in drawing recently on view in the pic- ture room of the Ilbrary. Boys as well as girls are being trained to use thelr taste and artisti. ability in the every day matters with which some people think art has nothing to do, | “Here was a drawing showing a ‘clothes yard—not ordinarily a thing of ‘beauty—acreened by flowering shrubs, the white posts covered with luxuriant English ivy. Another drawing showed an effective scheme of planting ever- greens about a light stucco house. An unsightly wall was made interesting by the skilful placing of shrubs, while a house of ugly architecture was paint- ed an unobtrusive color, its outlines being hidden by trees and shrubs, “One learned from the exhibit that in the clean country where there are plenty ef trees one may have a white house with green blinds, but in a smoky town the house must be painted brown or some other subdued color. Also houses must harmonize with each other. If one’s neighbors huve brown and green houses, an olive gray is a good color for one's own. Fruit trees combine three advantages—beauty in blossom time, shade in summer and fruit in season. Pecan and walnut trees also serve the double purpose of shade and fruit. An ice wagon, green with white lettering. was n cool and refreshing sight. “A collection of designs made by thi day schoo! girls in their art course was also displayed. The main object of this course 1s to develop art appreciatior and consequent good taste in dress and interior decorations. The exhibit in cluded designs for rugs and colo1 schemes for interiors, table and bo feau' covers. rugs, curtains and cush: fons: harmonizing with the walls.

Baltimore.—The recent celebration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of Father Charles R. Uncles’ ordination to the Roman Catholic priesthood was an un- usually brilliant event in the religious circles among our people in this city. Bt. Francis Xavier Catholic church was the scene of the most interesting se- ries of services perhaps in its history. ‘The occasion was significant of the growing tendency of the race toward broad mindedness in religious affairs without regard to denomination¥l affill- ation. Members of the various Prot- estant churches mingled with the great throng at the celebration as free- ly as did members of the Roman Cath- olic church. The anniversary sermon was deliv- ered by the Rev. Joseph Waring. Among the noted prelates at this serv- {ce were Bishop O. B. Corrigan and Mgrs. Foley and Starr. ©. M.

In accepting the gift Fatber Uncles in part said: 1 thank you most heartily for your cor- dial greeting and extraordinary generosi- ty. ‘This testimonial comes as the climax of thousands and thousands of evidences that the friends of my youth are still my friends. For this I thank God, and 1 thank you. Blessed In he that hos many friends, ‘even if he has no dollars; most unhappy he that has no friends, even if he is a millionaire.

Berry, which occurred in Brooklyn in January, the race in that section of the north has lost one of its most stalwart members. Mr. Berry was a native of Clark county, Va. He was a member of a family noted for its ambition and thrift. The deceased was born a slave, but when freedom came he made good use of his opportunities to better his condition. Not long after striking out for himself Mr. Berry obtained employment in the government service and was assigned to the department of the east, United States army, as general messenger in the chief quartermaster's office for a number of years at Charleston, S. C.; Louisville, Ky.; San Francisco, Philadelphia and on Governors island, New York, where he was serving at the time of his death. At this latter place he had been stationed for the past twenty-five years. His serv- M. B. THE LATE LEWIS H. BERRY. ice in the employ of the government extended over a period of forty-five years. By thrift and economy Mr. Berry was able to provide comfortably for himself and family. He owned property in Philadelphia and Brooklyn. He was a man of steady habits, sterling character and great fidelity. As a member of the Concord Baptist Church of Christ in Brooklyn for forty years he rendered faithful and efficient service. He was chairman of the board of trustees for a quarter of a century and was a member and an official of the Concord Mutual Relief society of the above named church. He was a liberal contributor to the church and each of its twenty or more auxiliary societies. Mr. Berry was one of the founders of the Society of the Sons of Virginia in Brooklyn, which he served for many years as chairman of the board of directors. He was also a member of the Southern Beneficial league in New York city and a member of the Grand United Order of Moses in Brooklyn. Members of each organization to which he belonged paid glowing tributes of love and affection to his memory at the funeral services, which were held at the Concord Baptist church. The funeral sermon was preached by the Rev. Dr. William M. Moss, pastor of the Concord church, and N. B. Dodson delivered a brief eulogy, representing the Society of the Sons of Virginia. Mr. Berry's wife died in August, 1916, shortly after which he became ill and never fully regained his health. He was greatly beloved by his church and the societies in which he held membership. He is survived by a devoted daughter, Mrs. Charlotte A. Bell; a grandson, a foster son and a host of friends in many parts of the north and south. THE EQUAL RIGHTS LEAGUE Militant Race Organization and its Branches to Honor Douglass' Memory. The National Equal Rights league is urging the race everywhere to hold Douglass centennial exercises with local Equal Rights leagues or committees. The Boston meeting will be held in Faneuil hall. It urges the race to push this matter and has issued the following appeal to the race and its friends: Hillburn, N. Y., Jan. 1, 1917. To All Colored Citizens and Believers In Justice: The National Equal Rights league, which at its ninth annual meeting held in Washington in October advocated reduction of southern representation, believes the re-election of President Woodrow Wilson to be illegal and unconstitutional, because the forty, or thereabouts, electoral votes of southern states based on disfairly colored men are what re-elected him. The law in the resolution second clause of the fourteenth article of the federal constitution. The white people of the north are the ones especially defrauded by this unlawful count, and their leaders are calling this fact to their attention. It is well to let them realize this result of color disfrianchement. A contest is being urged, especially by Hon. W. E. Chandler and Hon. A. E. Pillsbury. The colored citizens have an opportunity to help on this movement, however, by writing to United States senators and representatives before Feb. 1.

Scarcely has anyone witnessed any more pathetic and laughable play than that given recently at Shorter'’s by the Denver Dramatic Club. There was much in the play, in the acting and graceful manner of each of the participants to congratulate. The au- dience, which grew a little weary on account of the length of the play, nev- ertheless was enthusiastic and thor- oughly enjoyed every item of interest which the young amateurs kept up well. Misses Ethel Fitchue, as Old Harriet; Elsie Von Dickersohn, as Mil- lie, and Mrs. Lexie Brooks, as Pricil- la, were fine with Messrs. Albert Keith as Doctor Grower, and Willard Lewis as Charles and Nathan, dividing hon- ors in expression. Mrs. Theta Ector Miller, as Isadore and Walter Linzy as Oscar, both villians of black plot which carried them into murder, were so real as to evoke the hisses of part or the audience. With Mrs. Ethel Mallard as Gyp and J. J. Jackson as Siah, the audience was kept scream- ing with fun and laughter. They were exceptionally good. Jullan Von Dick- ersohn acted as officer. On the whole the play was the vebicle which re- flected great credit on the players as each did his and her part well. ELECTED SUNDAY SUPERINTEND- ENT. Samuel F.

J. M. KERR 153 Madison St., Denver WIDE SCOPE OF HAMPTON’S WORK Time Honored Virgin School Grows Rapidly, PREPARING FOR THE FUTURE OE Eee OL ODOLey 6452S Queer teers. H. B. Frissell Tells of Hampton's Achievernwxts and Present Needs. The rapid growth of tle Hampton school has been made necessary by the fact that hundreds of applicants have been refused each year for lack of room and by the insistent demands made upon the school for industrial and agricultural leaders, as well as for teachers for the rural schools, says Dr. H. B. Frissell, principal of the Hamp- ton (Va.) institute. The enlarged num- ber of students has filled the dining rooms to overflowing, and the in- creased interest which the community takes in all the activities of the school has brought so many to the lectures and the Sunday evening gatherings that the present assembly room in Cleveland hall is very much over- crowded. For this reason it has seemed best to ‘the trustees to enlarge the plans of the ‘Ogden Memorial auditorium so that it | will seat 2,400 instead of the 1,600 orig- inally provided for. The new audito- rium will make it possible to use Cleveland Hall chapel for an addi- tional dining room and so solve an- other serlous problem. The increased size and the rapid rise in the price of materials, however, will almost double the cost of the building. One hundred thousand dollars has already been raised, and at least $80,000 more will be needed for its completion. ‘The building is to be erected as a me- morlal to Robert C. Ogden, for many years president of the school's board of trustees and a lifelong friend of the founder of Hampton institute and of the Negro and Indian races. ‘The audi- torlum, however, {s not only to com- memorate Mr. Ogden's service to Hampton, but {s also to be a monu- ment perpetuating the appreciation of the south for his assistance in develop- ing its educational resources. The southern education board in its Ogden memorial booklet said: “Through the conference for educa- tion in the south he touched the great hearts of the north and south and put upon the nation’s conscience a unl- versal need. Not by persuasion, not by fanatical insistence, but by the conta- gion of his own personal devotion, he rallied men from every section, from every walk and station in life, rich and poor, high and lowly, white and black, to the cause which he advo- cated.” ‘Thus the Ogden auditorium at Hamp- ton is to be a national monument, and people of all classes, races and sec- tions have already contributed gener- ously toward its building. Here the Negro and Indian young men and wo- men who are preparing for their life work will have an opportunity not only for lectures and concerts, but for the visual instruction, now so valuable. through stereopticon and moving pic- tures, Large choruses of the people from the community will gather here. About 20,000 visitors pass through the school grounds each year, and this building will speak to them of Hampton's ef- forts at race adjustment through mu- tual understanding, sympathy and helpfulness.

JIM CROWISM PASSES. Ex-Lieut. Governor Harper, Insurance Commissioner, lost his job because the Senate failed to confirm him. Thus is removed one of the few remaining Carlson's obstacles at the Capitol. Recall with us that it was he who took the "bull" by the horns and ignored all republican organizations of Color and put in office on his nerve, a man who never was entitled to any consideration politically, because he was working for the democrats during and after campaign. When white men select Negro leaders after we put them in office. The Star will sit up with them and take notice. We hope that with the passing of Mr. Harper will be the passing of all Jim Crowism at the State Capitol.

Scarborough Calls Attention to Labors of Great American In Behalf of Our Race—Praise For Other Noted Men Who Have Contributed to Our Education. In outlining the work for the new year, 1917, and speaking of the urgent news of the Wilberforce (O.) university Dr. W. S. Scarborough, president of that noted institution, says in a letter to the New York Independent that it is the purpose of Wilberforce university to erect a science building as a memorial to the late distinguished editor of the Independent, naming it the "William Hayes Ward Science hall." We feel that no better tribute could be paid to his memory by the PETER H. HARRIS DR. W. B. SCARBOROUGH. Negro. He virtually devoted his life to the interests of the race. By voice and pen he aided our emancipation, upheld our rights and denounced our wrongs, advocated our education and encouraged our ambitions. He inspired us with hope for a future free from prejudice and proscription. Dr. Ward was also a personal friend of Wilberforce university and of Bishop Daniel A. Payne, the chief of its founders. Whatever pertained to its welfare deeply interested him. Therefore he noted with deep regret on a visit some four years ago when he addressed us during commencement week that our quarters for science teaching were totally inadequate. Every one who knew Dr. Ward knows what a keen interest he took in all lines of scientific endeavor and research. It seems to us, therefore, very fitting that we strive to build for our great need a monument to him that will not only show our grateful appreciation as a people of his labors in our behalf, but that will also have a close connection with the things in which he took so great delight. It is equally fitting that the oldest Negro school in America should be the one to put forth this effort and that its campus should be the spot where such a memorial shall stand. Dr. Ward was always quick to recognize a real need, and there is no question that a science building is one of the greatest needs of Wilberforce university today. All its class work along scientific lines is greatly hampered by lack of room for work and for even the proper placing of the laboratory equipment for which friends are making arrangements to provide. Our work planned for advance study demands the new building, as does the constantly increasing work in certain industries and in agriculture. We cannot even make the most profitable use of our small but well selected museum because it cannot be properly arranged in our present crowded quarters. Thus we find very important work suffering at every point because of needed enlargement. Wilberforce university, because of its strategic situation, its environment and many admirable facilities, is one of the strongest centers of Negro higher education in the country. Its work is constantly growing. It provides all around training in literary courses, teachers' training and vocational courses, of which there are seven. With forty-one instructors and 500 students, it is serving most acceptably in a wide field of Negro education. It is the oldest institution of its kind in the United States, as I have just said, dating as far back as 1847, when was founded the Union seminary, a manual labor institution for the education of colored people, and which was subsequently merged into Wilberforce university. It was named in honor of the great English statesman and benefactor of the colored race, William Wilberforce. It was incorporated in 1854, and its first board of trustees included Governor Salmon P. Chase, who at his death left it $10,000. Major General O. O. Howard, Major General Saxton, Dr. Bellows, Dr. Edward Everett Hale, Frederick Douglass and other men of prominence have served as trustees of this institution. Mr. Andrew Carnegie recently gave $17,500 toward the erection of a $50,000 building for girls, which with the $20,000 already donated by him for a library building made his total contribution to Wilberforce university $37,500. It has today an enrollment of 500 young men and women, from nearly all the states of the Union, from the isles of the sea and from Africa, and needs still larger quarters for them. We are therefore sending this appeal to the Independent, to the readers of this stanch and fearless paper, to the friends of Negro education generally and to the friends of Dr. William Hayes Ward in particular, asking their aid in accomplishing our purpose. The cost of this proposed building will be $40,000. We beg earnestly that out of their philanthropic love of humanity, out of their interest in education as the saving and uplifting power of a nation as well as a race and out of their friendship for and pride in the master mind that has gone to its reward our friends and Dr. Ward's friends will assist us in accomplishing our purpose. The memory of one who delighted in service will thus be perpetuated in an institution whose aim is service. Hamilton Holt, editor of the Independent, New York, throws the weight of his influence toward the efforts of Dr. William Sanders Scarborough to raise funds for the erection of a suitable science building at the Wilberforce university. Mr. Holt says: "The Independent is glad to publish the appeal to its readers from the president of Wilberforce university. I may add that I have visited Wilberforce, know its president well and can vouch for the good work being done there for the elevation of the Negro. "While the university maintains a very good industrial department, it has always stressed the higher education of the Negro, believing its greatest service lay in training its students for professional life and for the leadership of the race. I have often heard Dr. Ward speak with enthusiasm of the work Wilberforce was doing, and I am sure that any of his friends who feel like responding to President Scarborough's appeal will be aiding a genuinely worthy project." Dr. Robert R. Moton Is Optimistic. Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of the Tuskegee (Ala.) institute, in discussing the migration of large numbers of colored people from the south to the north says: "Sooner or later the farmers, business men and scientists are going to get together very seriously, and the boll weevil is bound to be exterminated. Then cotton will continue as 'king' and the Negro who remains and helps to fight the boll weevil pest will share richly in the production of cotton and other forms of prosperity which are sure to come in the south. We must make up our minds that our chances for work, for homemaking and for developing are just as good in Alabama as anywhere else in the world." Hill Heads League's Chicago Branch. T. Arnold Hill is making good as manager of the Chicago branch of the National League on Urban Conditions. He has had quite a large experience in social work, having been trained at the headquarters of the league in New York. Chicago is a big field, and Mr. Hill will no doubt find many perplexing problems with which to deal. February 12, Lincoln's birthday celebration by Odd Fellows at East Turner hall.

Negroes Farming In Eastern Colorado. 1 IFTEEN years ago farming was discussed among leading Nerges in Colo cussed among leading Negroes in Colorado as a new avenue for employment and self-help. May 5, 1910, a Settlement was started upon Government land in Weld County, where 20,000 acres in one body was open for homesteading. One settler filed on 320 acres as a desert claim, and one filed on 160 acres as a homestead claim. These men talked with their friends and got others in- Building Dearfield Land Office terested in the plan, and now there are sixty families occupying 15,000 acres of the 20,000 acres. The other 5,000 acres has since been taken up by a good class of white settlers. Within a radius of twenty miles around Dearfield Settlement there are as many more colored families and farmers. There are now in Eastern Colorado five hundred colored families on farms and two thousand Negro farmers and farm hands. O. T. Jackson, founder of Colorado Town, Dearfield, Colo. The Dearfield Settlement has a Townsite platted on state land consisting of 480 acres. There are eight blocks of town lots for business and residence, and unplatted blocks of 5 and 10 acres (less streets) surrounding the Town adapted to dairying, poultry raising, and truck farming. In the Town there is a city well, a cement block factory, a blacksmith shop, telephone, and a church building. The Town is now building up and all kinds of business is wanted to supply the farmers, as they are prosperous and are spending from $20,000 to $25,000 per annum in the towns around Making Cement Blocks which are from 10 to 20 miles away, besides their mail orders and shipments from Denver and other places. The products of the farms are increasing and there is now a marketable crop in this community of $250,000 per year produced by the Negro and white settlers in and around Dearfield. There is also a great demand for mechanics and farm laborers. The opportunities offered in Dearfield for location and investment are unsurpassed in the United States for Negroes of business ability and small capital. There is an opening in Dearfield for every branch of business that is conducted in any established community. Now is the time for the young man to start in and grow up with the prosperity of Dearfield. The farmers have had five years the start of the town, and anyone establishing a business in Dearfield has the prosperous farmers, colored and white, as a guarantee of support to his business. No class of people is more welcome in Colorado than the good farmer or business man or woman. Colorado needs 150,000 farmers and farm hands, business men and women, to grow and handle the products we are now importing from other states for our own use. Colorado has an area of 66,000,000 acres of land with a population of only 800,000, and only one-eighth of the land occupied, and two-thirds of her population in the cities and towns, thus leaving open the greatest opportunity for good farmers and for the building of thousands of new communities by white and colored settlers. The white settlers are here and are yet coming by the thousands. The Negro will have to hurry if he expects to partake of the golden opportunities of Colorado, which no other state in the Union offers. At the rate the lands and resources of Colorado are being gobbled up by foreigners and southerners the last call will soon be heard. Shall we as a race put off until at last too late? Dearfield Town Settlement has laid a great foundation for the building of the wealthiest Negro community in the world because of its productive soil, its climatic conditions, its close proximity to water, fuel, railroads, and the best market in the world which always has a demand for your product. Now is the time for the young Negro to become interested in the Town of Dearfield and be counted in its history as one of Dearfield's progressive pioneers in business. To those many lots or tracts within the next six months (beginning February 1, 1917) for business purposes we will give every inducement possible, for WE NEED YOUR BUSINESS NOW to furnish the farm- Inspecting Cement Blocks by Prospective Builders with supplies and to handle their marketable crops. We want 50 families to build up the Town of Dearfield. REFERENCES Senator John F. Shafroth, Senate Chamber, Washington, D. C. Governor Julius C. Gunter, State House, Denver, Colo. W. H.

Washington.—The alumni of Howard throughout the country are awakening to the meaning of the celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of that institution at Washington, March 1, 2 and 3, as being of great moment in its meaning to them as well as to their alma mater. The plan already in operation contemplates the revival of local associations and the organization of others where three or more of Howard graduates reside. In each of these localities, through these associations or groups of the alumni, arrangements are being perfected for a celebration on March 2 concurrent with the big celebration in this city, when each association or group of the alumni will be represented by a delegate. The meeting of March 1 will be held in Convention hall and will assume a general public character. On March 2 historical night will be celebrated at the First Congregational church. and on March 3 the alumni will be given the day, which will take the plan of a reunion of departments in the forenoon, luncheon at noon as guests of the university, and in the afternoon a grand rally. At night a reception will close the celebration. It is further planned that the alumni will complete their $10,000 alumni gymnasium fund started in 1908, toward which they have in hand $2,000 in cash and more than $0,000 pledged. The plan which is now being circulated individually among the alumni is to have each alumnus contribute on or before March 2 in time to be announced at the public celebration $1 for each year he or she may have been out from the university up to ten years, after that $1 for each five years or multiple thereof, thus placing it in the reach of all. Those who have pledged are urged to make good at once, as they are counted on to raise this fund. Local associations at Baltimore, Chicago, Cincinnati, Dallas, Denver, Huntington, W. Va.; Kansas City, Mo.; Kingston, Jamaica, B. W. I.; Los Angeles, Louisville, Ky.; Lynchburg, Va.; Muskogee, Okla.; New York, New Jersey, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Richmond, Va., and Wheeling, W. Va., have given evidences of co-operation and are working with a view of seeing which can roll up the largest sum on this fifteenth birthday of the university. Individual endorsements from all over the country seem to assure the popularity of the movement, and success seems assured. Pledges and contributions may be sent through the offices of the General Alumni association, 639 F street, N. W., or the treasurer of Howard university, and will be acknowledged by return mail. WASHINGTON'S SELECT CLUB Walter J. Singleton Elected President of Well Known Social Enterprises the famous Mu-So-Lit club, embracing an even 100 men, representing the musical, social and literary wings of the professional and business life of Washington, held its annual meeting recently and elected the following officers for the ensuing year: President, Walter J. Singleton; first vice president, L. M. Herahaw; second vice president, R. W. Thompson; recording secretary, Charles P. Ford; financial secretary, James C. Burils; corresponding secretary, F. Morris Murray; treasurer, A. N. Scurlock. All were re-elections except the financial secretary, the incumbent, A. Mercer Daniel, declining renomination. President Singleton was eloquently placed in nomination by Justice Robert H. Terrell of the district municipal court. Mr. Singleton's annual address was a "corker." standing out strongly for a "greater Mu-So-Lit club." for an enlargement of its scope as a social influence and a keener vitalization of its power as a civic force in the community. He believed the club should represent in practical fashion the best thought of the colored people of Washington on all of the big questions that confront us as a race. This, he indicated, is not going far afield and departing from our function as a social organization, but to promote the civic welfare is to give a nobler and broader meaning to the word "social." His address bristled in fine points and was warmly applauded throughout, and an ovation followed its conclusion. Other addresses were delivered during the evening by Whitfield McKinley, former collector of the port of Georgetown, and by Garnet G. Wilkinson, principal of the Dunbar high school. Musical selections were rendered by Bush Hunter, Howard university's favorite tenor, accompanied by Clinton Wooding, and Lynn J. Koger of Howard university recited an original dialect lecture entitled "The Goneness of the Past." At the February meeting of the club the one hundredth anniversary of the birth of Frederick Douglass will be duly observed. Contraasting Racial Opportunities. Notwithstanding the many handicaps of the colored people in their efforts to better their condition, they are making considerable progress. Besides the small pay they get for their services, they are handicapped in the education of their children, especially in the south, where the rural school term is not more than half as long as those in the north. Nevertheless the majority of the ablest members of the race intellectually are natives of the south. The boys and girls and young men and women of the north and their parents, in view of the above, should make full use of their opportunities. After the "Birth of a Nation" was kinds of humiliation have been shown was bad enough, but since, open and sures have been publicly taken against not where these things will end.

Robin DRINKING BITTER DREGS OF "BIRTH OF NATION," NEGRO PROFESSIONAL MEN FORCED TO LEAVE KITTREDGE BLDG. BECAUSE WHITE LAWYERS KICK After the "Birth of a Nation" was permitted here by Judge Butler, all kinds of humiliation have been shown the Denver Negro. Before then it was bad enough, but since, open and defiant activities in segregation measures have been publicly taken against us to such an extent that we know not where these things will end. However, our progress and advancement cannot and will not be retarded, because of these blows. The Negroes have a duty to perform. Watch the political activity of these men now complaining on color. Carry out to the end the color argument. N. A. A. C. P., get busy, get the names of the tenants. Has it developed in Denver that a white face is the only prerequisite qualification to getting first-class office accommodations in Denver? If so, shame on Denver! By February 1 or a short time thereafter the Kittredge building, which has housed three Negro professional men, Dr. T. E. McClain, dentist, for two years; Lawyer W. B. Townsend, for six years, and Lawyer George G. Ross, for twelve years, shall be rid of them because of the recent rule made by the agents, Bennett and Myers, in drawing the color line. Sufficient and strong color and race bias and prejudice was brought to bear as to cause the forcing out of the representative men of color. No objection was made to their character, conduct, morals or treatment of the building further than that the "majority of the lawyers kicked against the presence of Negroes in the building." Reasons were hinted at first that Negroes stood in the halls, told stories and spit on the floor and were a menace to white lawyers' business, etc., but when argument was produced showing that no more Negroes did this in the Kittredge building than what happened in other buildings where "some" Negroes meet to see white dentists and white lawyers and doctors. Other white lawyers did not complain neither about their white brothers taking the Negros' money, nor riding up in the elevator with them when they visited white professional men, but objection was only found when Negroes spent money with Negroes in a first-class building. Finally we were told that the color line must be drawn in order for the building to fill up. The Editor was told that our presence in the building prevented some white clients coming to see their lawyers and that the lawyers objected because of the loss of their clientele, and with the wave of the hand intimated no clients no money, no money no rent, and finally no lawyers on account of the Negroes in the building. Twelve years and before that Lawyer Stuart, ex-Legislator ten years, had been in the building, and in January, 1917, the color line argument is brought up to force out worthy and respectable tenants. It was an unpleasant task for Bennett and Myers to do this, they said, and we assured them that it was a bitter, humiliating shame for us to be compelled to receive such a blow. We owed them nothing, and to be treated like that for no other reason than because of our color was outrageous. Now, Mr. Negro Man and Woman who goes to white lawyers, doctors and dentists, you are not wanted in the buildings into which you go, but you are "tolerated" because you go to whites and there "dump" your coin. If any Negro goes into the Kittredge building he knows that now he is not wanted and arrangements should be made to have those people there come to him. It can be done. Are we to be slaughtered thusly and our own men and women keep on going to these race Negrophobists who use this means in striking at our bread and butter? Bennett and Myers were kind enough to secure another building where there was no elevator service and no accommodations such as the Kittredge building affords. This is the first time we were ever kicked out of a building and for a reason over which we had no control—being born black and a Negro—yet, thank God, even in our hour of suffering and humiliation, we are proud to thus suffer for our race.

When you meet the man making good it don't hurt you to congratulate him and bid him to go higher. It has a wonderful effect on his ambition. Let us be all boosters of all who make good.

GET-TOGETHER MEETING AT THE SPRINGS. On Wednesday of last week at Colorado Springs, the presiding elder of the Rocky Mountain district called together a group of near-by pastors and Christian workers and formulated plans for the district conference and Sunday School and League convention to be held 6-10 at Cheyenne, Wyo. The gathering as planned will take on largely the aspect of a school of methods in which concrete demonstrations in the various departments of the Bible school will be given. Wideawake singing is to be a feature of the convention. An experienced director has been given full charge of the music. Among those who attended were Revs. R. L. Pope and C. A. Williams and Mrs. Fannie Brown of Denver, Rev. R. H. Harbert of Pueblo, Rev. and Mrs. J. B. Isaacs, Mesdames L. M. Gudgel, Maggie S. Carter, E. B Butler, Lizzie Watson, M. Manley and others of Colorado Springs. The meeting was wondrously agreeable, the responsibility for which rests upon the shoulders of Rev. Isaacs, the pastor, and Mrs. Gudgel, the district superintendent, and their committee who served a most delicious turkey dinner. IN THEIR NEW QUARTERS. Lawyer W. B. Townsend and Dr. T. E. McClain have removed from the Kittridge building and can be found in the Union Pacific building, a two-story, at the southeast corner of 17th and Curtis Streets, rooms 3. 4 and 5.

They invite the Colored people to call to see their new quarters, and to let these two race men serve them. Mrs. Frank Payne was suddenly summoned to go to Pueblo on the account of the serious illness of her husband. She left Wednesday. Mr. Jones of 2900 block Glenarm Place, died Wednesday night.
