Denver Star

Hello Bill! Feb. 22nd, rern hall ADMISSION 35 CENTS=CASH PRIZES TWENTY-SEVENTH YEAR Will They Stand For It? We learn from the Atlanta Independent that the Board of Education of Atlanta a short while ago abolished the eighth grade in the colored public schools of that city, and that the abolishment of the seventh grade is now contemplated. We understand that the Board proposes to substitute industrial training in place of the work of these two grades. At the same time it is given out that a new Junior High School for white children will be provided. The Independent charges that this additional grade is being taken from the colored schools in order to allow for the establishment of the new white school. In Atlanta there are high schools, technical schools, and all other kinds of schools for white children. The coloured children have no high school and now their grammar schools are being gradually reduced to mere primary work. Against this high-handed action the Independent comes out in a strong editorial in which it says: There is no need of parleying, no need of yes-sir, boss, with hat in hand, no need of cringing, but like men and citizens, meet the Board of Education and tell the authorities what is in our minds. Not insultingly, not offensively, but stand upon our rights as mec, as citizens and as taxpayers and ask that we be given that which the law provides for us. The Board of Education has no authority in law or morals to withhold from the Negro child any rights granted the white child We ought not to stand for it, and we will not stand for it. This expresses exactly what the people of Atlanta should do. The trouble has been that in most communities where we are treated in the manner in which the Atlanta colored people are being treated we have not talked to the white people who were responsible, and placed our demands before them properly. The Independent editorial calls upon the colored people of Atlanta to take precisely the attitude that ought to be taken in such a case. This is a situation in which a cringing supplication would be as degrading as a silent submission It is a situation that calls for a straightforward statement of the two top grades of their grammar schools there is no reason to suppose that the Board of Education will not ultimately reduce these schools down to the three primary grades or abolish grammar schools for colored children entirely. Will they stand for it?—N. Y. Age. The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 Number 175 Rochester, N. Y.—Rochester and neighboring towns are in need of colored help. The servant girl question, in particular, is a source of concern, and seventy five girls are wanted at once. Suitable arrangements can be made as to transportation. Many have been trained and are able so cook and do general word. The only obligation on the part of the housewife is to advance $14 to pay two thirds of the girl's fare, which the girl a grees to have deducted from her wages after she arrives here. Domestic help has been one of the most serious problems confronting the local branch of the State Employment Bureau. The office has a large unsatisfied demand for girls for factory work, with or without experience. Power machine operators, pocket makers and hand sewers may procure positions in clothing factories. Other positions open for women are: Shirt makers, bindery girls, laundry workers, weavers and girls to learn weaving, sock liner, pastry cook, waitresses, general girls, second girls, chld's nurse and laundresses. Positions are open for men as follows: Harnessmaker, boys 16-17 years old for fact ory and errand work, electrician (able to do winding), machine operators on pants, bakers, hotel cooks, planten press feeders and platen pressmen. Schenectady, N. Y.—The industrial opportunities here for Negro labor are particularly good. In Troy, Glovers ville and neighboring towns there are many openings for efficient colored help. RETIRED MINISTER LEFT $100,000 ESTATE New Haven, Conn.—Franklin Coellen, attorney for the late Rev. Henry H. Johnson, a retired Negro minister and real estate dealer, in search ing among the clergyman's effects Tuesday, found in the holes and chinks of his dilapi dated house notes and deeds valued at $100,000. The Rev. Mr. Johnson was mentioned for Minister to Haiti on the Administration of President Cleveland. He left the ministry and went in to the real estate business, in which he was successful. Be sides the securities found he left about $10,000 in cash. Over 300 Negroes leaving the South have come to Peoria, Ill. One hundred and fifty of them have secured employment at the Keystone Structural Iron works near South Bartonville. A Chinese restaurant in Boston has been fined $100 for discriminating against colored people. DENVER, GOLORADO, SATURDAY, FEB. 17, 1917 COLORED WIFE WINS IN BIG WILL CONTEST Nashville, Tenn —The Supreme Court of this state has affirmed the judgment of the lower courts which upheld the will of J. H. Jennings, a white man, who died, leaving his estate, valued at $100,000, to Bettie Hicks, his colored common law wife, and their ten children. In upholding the validity of the will, Bettie Hicks and her children will come in possession of an estate consisting of one thousand acres of valuable farm land and other property. The will was contested by relatives of Jennings, who, in the will contest contended that the signature of an essential witness to the will was a forgery and had been placed on the instrument after the death of the testator. This contention was overthrown by the proof, as the court found, and it was held that all the evidence to sustain the contention of the contestants was the result of intimidation on the part of some of the contestants. It appeared that Bettie Hicks, the chief beneficiary of the will, had become so intimidated by the testator's brother, and was in such fear of him that she became the chief witness against the will and gave false testimony against her own interest. The Court stated that the executor, Paul Barnett, who was the closest friend of the testator, had been threatened with an unjust criminal prosecution and induced, to agree to a compromise, which was afterwards overth own. The cour found that the testator had recited in the will that he felt it to be his moral obligation to leave his estate to the woman with whom he had lived and to their children, and that it was his strong desire that none of the property should go to the Jennings family. The court stated that the only decent thing the testator appeared to have done in his lifetime was to provide for his children by his will and that it would have been a pity if this action had been set aside. The Jennings will was prepared by Paul Evans, a former attorney of Memphis. Evans refused to testify to his signature as a witness to the will when it was probated because he had not been paid a fee of $1,000 which he claimed to be due him from the estate, and was committed to jail for a short period for contempt before his consent to testify was procured. Evidence adduced during the trial of the case was that Bettie Hicks became Jennings' common law wife when fourteen years old. NEGROES MANNING SWITCH ENGINES Colored men engineers, firemen and brakemen are handling the switch engines and cars at Scullin-Galagher's Steel Plant of this city. According to information, about February 1 the white crew went on a strike for higher wages. Their places were filled temporarily by Colored men who came from the South, who had some experience along these lines. For fear that the railroad company would refuse to furnish cars, the white men were put back on the job, with continued dissatisfaction to all concerned. A conference was held, and as soon as the officials of the steel plant were given assurance from the railroad companies that there would be no interference on their part, the white men were immediately dismissed and their places were filled by Colored men. These Colored men feel assured that their positions are permanent, as they have this promise from the official of the company, who has always kept his word.—Kansas City Sun, Cafe Man Arrested; Then Agrees to Pay Fine. New York, February 8th John Riehm, the cafe proprietor, this week agreed to pay $500 each to Eugene L. Moore and D. E. Tobias for refusing to serve them on account of color. However, Riehm did not reach a satisfactory adjustment of the matter with Williams and Kohn, 261 Broadway, the attorneys for Messrs. Moore and Tobias, until he had been placed under arrest. Last week the Appellate Term of the Supreme Court directed Judge Davis of the Municipal Court to issue a body execution against the cafe proprietor in the event that his personal property was insufficient to satisfy the two judgments. Judge Davis promptly fixed the amount of damages at $500 each and directed issuance of the arrest execution. The City Marshall, upon visiting Riehm's place of business, had difficulty in arresting him and called to his assistance a traffic policeman. Riehm, through his attorneys, then resorted to subterfuge after subterfuge, but Williams and Cohn, not to be outdone, successfully fought every move made by the cafe man, who finally decided to obey the mandate of the court. After two hours' consultation with the complainants' attorneys, Riehm, acting in his own behalf, the matter was finally satisfactorily adjusted and the defendant released. CITY FEDERATION GAINS VICTORY Women's Efforts Rewarded With Success Fittingly and very appropriately the Frederick Douglass Centennial Anniversary was celebrated at Zion Baptist Church Sunday afternoon by the City Federation of Negro Women's Clubs of Denver. It was an all inspiring sight to behold and just as instructive and entertaining as it was inspirational. A program of women who think intelligently, act gracefully and give efficient service helping humanity as they climb. Song "Onward" composed by a Federation woman and sung so lustily and patriotically was closely followed by invocation by Mrs. Gatewood, prominent club and church worker. The call from the National was read by our young and aspiring Mrs. Theta E. Miller. For fine music rendered so soulfully, the City Federation Quartette composed of Miss Mable Cole and Mesdames Dishman, Williams and McGuire could not be excelled as they rendered "Sweet and Low", Steal Away" and "Swing Low Sweet Chariot". Mrs. Florence Smith gracefully yet feelingly recited our loyal and proud Dnnbar's "Ode to Douglass" Dunbar's soul was laid bare through her interpretations. Mrs. A. R. Madison sang so charmingly "Swaunee River" after which Mrs. G. N. Ross appealed for and raised $25 to be sent for the payment on the debt of Frederick Douglass Home. Before that, a great injustice would be done the ladies if proper credit was not given Mrs. L. Froman for her fine presentation of Douglass' life. No man in Denver has made a better presentation and brought out with such telling effect, the vital and principal points in his life As she had spoken so strongly of his great character, one wondered what a delight it would have been if Douglass, himself, a convert to woman's suffrage, could have heard one of his own paying such a glowing tribute to his memory. The women of Denver do actual things and the more that they are encouraged and helped the more that they will and can accomplish. The Denver Star wants to publicly congratulate the women for upholding our leaders even after death. Not a male organization even hinted a Douglass celebration. "O, may our women constantly move on, upward and higher!" Denver and Colorado want her women of Color to take their places in this Nation be sides the other women in this Country and no better way can be utilized than by giving inspiring and developing such noble sentiments and Nation- State historian & New ural History Society the Denver Star FIVE CENTS A COPY. TOOK REVENGE FOR DEATH OF HIS WIFE Mob Hung Her to Tree, But He Killed Six and Made His Get-a-way. Athens, Ga., Feb. 2—Two little boys (one white) got to fighting in a town a few miles from here and the result was that the mother of the Race boy slapped the white one. 12 men formed a mob and took her to the outskirts of the city and lynched her. They hung her body to a tree and then went to where her husband was working and asked him to come and help them cut down a cow which was too heavy for them. He went and was dumfounded when he saw that it was his wife. He humbly begged of them to allow him to go home and get a sheet to wrap it a round her. They consented. They waited to watch him, but he had beat them to it. Approaching them, he opened fire, killing six. Before they could get him he made his escape. The Associated press never said anything a bout the matter. Kansas Senator Introduces Segregation Bill KILLED IN COMMITTEE The loyal white and color ed people of Kansas will be proud to note that the Senate committee on Cities of the Second Class put a bomb under the Sparks House bill No. 83 offered by Sparks of Galena, to segregate colored children in schools of cities of the second class. It was intended to slip the bill through without the colored people getting wise as to what was going on, and as soon as the news reached us that the matter was before the House we got busy and though the bill passed the House with six a bove a constitutional majority with a great number of Republicans voting for it which was a surprise to us, we knew that the Senate was safe and sound, and the matter was tak en up immediately with the Senate committee and they submarined the bill in a quiet manner.

The spiritual tide ran unusually high at the evening service with its large audience and special music by the choir and congregation from the A. M.

Some of these were composed by bishops and laymen of our own church. All weekly meetings except the Friday night class were dispensed with for the present by the pastor that the pastor and congregation might attend the revival services at the "Mother Church"—Shorter chapel.

The Iliff Quartette was out and conducted an elaborate song and prayer service. They joined with the choir in singing many selections and sang other quartette selections. Rev. Newborne preached a very excellent sermon. The Ladies' Aid had a very pleasant and prosperous meeting Thursday afternoon at the home of the president, Mrs. Clinkscale. They have had two practices this week for the play which is to be given March 15th in connection with the fair. This play is of an unusual nature. Nothing like it has yet been given in any of the Denver churches. Much interest was manifest in the meeting of the official board Tuesday evening. The general welfare of all departments of the church was discussed at length. The members of the official board were loud in their praise of the work of the women. Because of the interest being taken in the Epworth League of late, it was necessary for them to have a second order of literature for this semester. The topic for Sunday is "The Marks of a Christian." The chairman of the steward board is urging the members to come up and pay their pledges as only six weeks remains for them. Our pastor goes to conference soon.

Miller was lately ordained to the gospel ministry and we are looking forward for great things from him in the near future. There was quite a crowd of young people out at the B. Y. P. U. service and taking an active part in the program. We have changed our plans and time for holding our revival meetings. The Baptist churches will hold union Bible reading and prayer meetings up until March 11th, then we will hold simultaneous meetings, closing April 1st. We organized for personal evangelism last Sunday and for a few weeks will do personal work out in our part of the city. We are expecting every member to become interested in these meetings and do their part in trying to win one soul for the Master. Can the Lord depend on you to do your part? A hearty welcome to all to all of our services. THE ZION BAPTIST CHURCH. 24th Avenue and Ogden. David E. Over. D. D., Minister. Telephones. York 6007, York 9377. Sunday's services gave tangible evidence of the Prayer Spirit who is working mightily in the hearts of a large number of believers. During the day four persons came forward for a confession of faith by baptism. Mrs. Ida Perry, Malinda Finlay, Louise Black and Zenobia Coner are the names added to the roll. Sister Alice Hardwick and Brother Nathaniel Morton received the rite of baptism. The pastor is continuing the discussion of Paul's letter to the Ephesians, which is proving most helpful to the Church. The dramatic interest manifested at the evening service was evidence that the word is reaching home. In the afternoon the Women's Federation of clubs gave an interesting program in memorial of Frederick Douglass to a fair sized audience. It is unfortunate that on such an occasion there is not a more general response. Organization work for the Campaign of Soul Winning continues. Enthusiasm grows and numbers are being added to the personal workers' corps and prayer circle. A large list of names are being offered in prayer, and the work is assuming definite form. What we plan is to make this a definite church policy instead of a sporadic and seasonal effort, which, as a rule, is forgotten almost as soon as it is over. The Church should and must be organized for one chief end—the salvation of souls. CHURCH OF THE HOLY REDEEMER 22nd Ave. and Humboldt St. The Rev. Henry B. Brown, B.

Mike Thomas of Columbine street is very ill at this writing with pneumonia. We trust he will soon recover. Also Sister N. M. Manly is quite ill at 2914 California street. Sister Lucy Brown is up again. The sick of the church general are doing very well. There is much sickness, pneumonia, etc., among our people. The Teachers' Institute, under auspices of Denver County Sunday School convention, should prove helpful to Sunday school teachers. There is a campaign launched against unfavorable moving picture fad in Denver. We should be very delighted to strike a blow at this fad. We should have started the move before "The Birth of a Nation" was billed for Denver. When one prays in time they may expect to be saved. Bro. John Hardy left Tuesday for California. The W.

Congregational singing with the choir selections is a live wire for the services. The choir renders tomorrow "A Call to Worship" and "God That Madeth Earth and Heaven." Everybody is cordially invited. Mrs. Belle Brown, 2435 Tremont street, was baptized last Sabbath morning. Sunday, March 18th, is the date set for the confirmation of baptismal vows of such persons contemplating membership with the People's church. The class is now open for members.

Miss Charlotte Adams, the director of Biblical study at the National Training school of the Young Women's Christian Association in New York city, who is in the city for a few days, en route to California, will be the speaker of the evening at the Recognition Service of the Phyllis Wheatley club on Monday evening. February 19, at the People's Presbyterian churchat 8 p. m. At the close of the service a reception will be held at the Phyllis Wheatley room, 318 East Twenty-fifth street. Instead of the usual vesper service last Sunday afternoon we attended the Frederick Douglas memorial services at Zion Baptist church. The vesper services will be resumed this Sunday afternoon with Miss Verne Hooper and Miss Francis White presiding. On Monday evening we had a travel talk on the Hawaiian islands by Miss Oliphant. The talk was very interesting and we hope to have another by the same speaker soon. All the members who have joined the Association since the last Recognition service will be expected to take part in the service Monday evening. The members of the High School club will participate also. The candy, cake and pie sale given by the High School club last Saturday was a huge success. The Phyllis Wheatley club invites everyone to their Recognition service Monday evening at 8 p. m. at the People's Presbyterian church. The service is very beautiful and we will have the pleasure of hearing a very gifted speaker in the person of Miss Charlotte Adams. After the service we invite everyone present to the reception at our room, 318 East Twenty-fifth street. All new members will please be out Sunday afternoon to the vesper service at 4 p. m. for we wish to practice the Recognition service at 5 p. m. THE SUNDAY SCHOOL The attendance last Sunday showed considerable increase over that of the past few weeks. It is well also to make mention of the fact that the spirit of promptness is making itself manifest, a larger number being present at the opening of the school. However, there is great room for improvement in this particular. Few understand how much is added to the enjoyment of any meeting when a majority at least of the attendants are on hand at the opening of the service. One of the great ends toward which we should all work is: Every Member in His Seat at 9:45. We are all glad that the improvement in the condition of his wife has permitted the return of our junior superintendent, as a consequence, things went a little more smoothly in that department. Brother Waller was kept away by the very severe illness of his mother, which enforced the active participation of the pastor's general utility man. On the whole our school is showing the evidences of deep and thoro revolution for the better. The change to the Graded Literature presented many difficulties, but the teachers are surely mastering them. With study and patient effort ours is becoming a school of the first rank. At the residence of Mrs. L. Jackson on Marion street last Thursday evening an appreciative audience listened to a delightful program rendered by the following persons: Quotations, the club members; instrumental solo, Miss Irma Jackson; reading, Mrs. H. Jackson; instrumental solo, Miss Ruth Carper; reading, selected, Mrs. Proman; quartet, Misses Williams and Williams; reading, Mr. W. A. Gatewood; instrumental solo, Miss Ruth Carper. This being the quarterly program of the Pond Lily Art club was highly enjoyed by all. The members and visitors were entertained afterwards by Mrs. Naoma Hall.

Hampton, Va.—Among the many fine features connected with the celebration of founder's day at the Hampton in- stitute, in this town, on Sunday, Feb. 4, was the address of Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of the Tuskegee (Ala.) institute. Founder's day is always an important occasion at Hampton, where the work and memosy of General Sam- uel Chapman Armstrong are honored. Dr, Moton in part said: “In this time of the world's great strife, when there is universal longing for peace, it 1s well for us here at beautiful, peaceful, restful Hampton institute, because of the wisdom, pa- tlence and sacrifice that have gone into establishing tt, to think of its founder, who worked out here in concrete form the fundamental principle of universal and lasting peace, equally applicable to nations and races. The angels’ wong, ‘Peace on earth; good will to- ‘ward men,’ meant good will toward all men, not to our own race or our own nation only, not to people of our own social status merely; it meant good will toward all humanity. Armstrong’s Work For Humanity. “General Armstrong was able always ‘to recognize humanity amid ignorance and poverty, as well as beneath race jana color lines. It did not matter whether it was with the Kanakas in the Hawallan Islands, or with the choice youth of New England at Wil- Mame college, or as captain of his company of Ninth Maryland Negro troops at Gettysburg, or whether it was adjusting relations between for- mer master and slave on the Virginia peninsula or teaching two and per- baps three races the dignity and beau- ty of labor and the grandeur and glory of service—be had faith in all human- ity, in the Negro, in the Indian, in the southern white man. He believed in the ultimate triumph of right and jus- tice and good will, that there could be a wholesome and happy adjustment between races, and he waa willing to work unfalteringly tpward its accom. Pilshment It was thle bopefulness. this seal, with which he was able 20 thoroughly to inspire those who were so fortunate as to come under his instruc tion and influence. Thus we have this great institution with all that, bas grown out of tt, uot only other institu- tlons, but what is more beautiful—its educational ideals. “Few men saw as did General Arm. strong how necessary it was that the two races should be satisfactorily ad- Justed to the new: relationship which ‘was bound to follow the emancipation. He said: ‘Hampton has blessed me in so many ways. Along with it have come the best people of this country for my friends and helpers and then auch a grand chance fo do something direcdly tor those set free by war and indirectly for those who were con- quered.’ His object was not merely to belp the Negro, important as that was, but to help the nation. Religion Our Beacon Light. “The Negro race is sometimes accused of being a cowardly race. The fact is cited that the Negro did not rise up during the war and massacre the wives and children of the’masters who were fighting for his continued enslavement. His accusers forget that the Negro al- ways kept fresh and alive his faith in God. His religion was his beacon light. There are also hundreds of touching instances that rereal some- thing of the loving tenderness that ex- Isted between the slaves and their owners. I hold and can hold no brief for slavery, and yet & cannot be de- nied that there was much of kindness during the period, now happily passed. that constrained the Negro slave to Protect with his life those left in his care. “Tt ls my belief that kindness today rather than cruelty will bring about friendly co-operation between white man and black man, Teuton and Sax- on, rich and poor, capital and labor, a co-operation we ail so much desire. “Sad and humiliating as it truly ts for the families, fries—yee, and race |—of those who, charged with crime, Jare denied an orderly and impartial trial and unfortunately fall victims to the mob, it is much more unfortunate, in my judgment, for the mob, for thelr children and friends—yea, “and thelr race also. Cannet Lynch Imperfection. “The vicious reaction of batred on the unfortunate possessor Is far more to be dreaded than its results upon the humble creature who xuffers from it ‘The white race should not and will not much longer.

After all the misunderstand- ings and friction, after all the bitter ness and hatred, the sqber thought of the educated Christian white man of the soath as well as that of the edueat-_ 4 Christian Negro has come to the erge of a period when good will and peace with honor and justice to all concerned and mutual understanding seem more possible than ever. Confederate Leader Aided Negre. “Buch incidents as the following have been happenings ever since the war between the states, but they don’t al- ways find their way into public print: A Negro was under indictment for murder. When the case was called in the superior court it is sald that Gen- eral Toombs arose and said, ‘Mr. Clerk, mark my name as counsel for the de- fendant' The state's witnesses made ‘a plausibie case against the accused. At last the time for the defense arriv- 4. Gencral Toombs began: ‘May it Please the court and you gentlemen of the jury. At the battle of Gettysburg, when General Pickett's charge had been repulsed, a Confederate colonel, severely wounded, was left on the field. ‘The Federals were raking the ground with their batteries, and no soldier daredsto rescue his leader. At that moment a Lack form was seen to move forward through the Confederate lines, ‘and in spite of the lead and tron hail he rushed to the wounded officer. He took him in his arm tenderly and car- rled hilm back to safety. That colonel was my brother. A hero who could do that at Gettysburg cannot be a mur derer today. Stand up, Tom, and open your shirt.” The Negro did as direct- ed, showing the scar of the wound re- celved in bis herote devotion. General Toombs left the case with the southern white men of that jury, who immedi. ately returned a verdict of not guilty. Honor For a Negro Here. “We huve not yet forgotten San Juan Hi, while the heroism of the black and white troops during the Carrizal tragedy is still fresh in our minds. ‘Colonel Henry Watterson in the Louis- ville CourierJournal thus describes that fateful event: “ “The black man fought in the dead- ly shambles side by side with the white man, following always, fighting always as bis Heatenant fought. “‘and finally, when Adair, literally shot to pleces, fell in his tracks, bis last command to his black trooper was to leave him and save his life. Even then the heroic Negro paused in the midst of that hell of carnage for a fina! service to his officer. Bit, Cuppa el names ot thay biacs trooper should be rescued from obscu. ‘rity aud written side by side with that of bis officer. If Henry Adair had sur- vived this modern Alamo he would have seen to it that this Negro should have been bracketed with him in the |erotc annals of the affray. As Henry Adair did not live to do it, we should | veo that this justice is done.’ | “{ am glad to say that the name of that colored trooper has been ‘rescued eS obscurity.’ It is Peter Bigstaff. ‘The two incldents Just cited give evi. \dence that the spirit of kindness be tween fhite inén and black men which We are accustomed to think of as ex. isting mainly before and during the war is Just as genuine and true today as it was then. All it needs ts a chance for manifestation. ‘There are Negroes everywhere as true to the white race as they are to themselves, and there are white men who are just as true and loyal to the Negro race. “All You Know le Humanity.” | sane dea which was crudely ex presse] by a Carnegi¢é hero student now at Tuskegee institute who at the risk of his own life in Waco, Tex. saved the life of a little white girl from an ovrushing automobile, is the {dea which will bind races and nations to- gether in peace and good will. When asked whether he would have prefer red to save @ black child rather than a white child he replied: “You don't stop to think when an innocent human life |! at stake whether you are helping a white person or a black person. All you know is that ft is a human being.” “It is that spirit which General Arm. strong and Dr, Frissell, through Hamp ton institute, have taught throughout all of these years to black man and white man in the north and in the south. It is only through that spirit eas SaeR IRR eke ate Ug Pittsburgh Odd Fellows Hold Meeting. ‘The Odd Fellow fraternity of Pitts bargh held a largely attended meeting at the hall of the crder on Friday evening, Feb. 9.

How many of us realize how much we will help ourselves by boosting our competitor instead of knocking him? To those of us who do not, the above picture, from Armour, will carry its own message. No amount of rea- soning or logic could show any more clearly and definitely just what co- operation means. Let’s all apply it to our own busi- ness this year and wait for results. NEGROES, STUDY THIS PICTURE. THEN ACT. j The Star prints the above lesson in order to convince some of the most skeptical Negroes of Denver and Colo- rado, as well as elsewhere, what it will mean for ten millions of Negroes whose minds, hearts, objects, pur- poses, ambitions and work are dog- gedly set up on one certain thing— elimination of all caste, prejudice and inequality for every one—or certain things of uplift to humanity, and what a unified action can do. This lesson applies to Negroes who patronize others than their own in business, even if you or they don’t like the man or men running in business. Patronize him or his competitor of color. Every nickel taken from the business and professional man of color only weakens him and strengthens the chains of prejudice and unfair com- petition upon your necks, besides helping the race who least need your help. We are our own masters, if we would rightly and intelligently use what means which are ours. ‘Think of 100 Negroes putting $1 aside a month in a colored company or in a bank and buying pigs, horses, cattle, chickens, turkeys and Belgian hares and putting those animals on the ranches of our Negro farmers, what would it mean in two years to the farmer, yourself and our Denver com- munity? A Negra auto transportation service, a Negro commission merchant and produce dealer, Negro distributor of eggs and poultry to Capitol Hill customers and a Negro general store in the farmers’ settlement all because Denver and Colorado Negroes are working together. Study this picture and wisely develop your money and brains. Again, let us suppose every female who needed such an article would patronize the only corset maker in Denver and in Colorado, Miss Beatrice Lewis, in one week she would be com pelled to hire extra help. Suppose that in July, when the Prince Hall chapter of the O. E. 8. meets in Colo- rado Springs, that the women have exhibits and displays for thelr inspec- tion, thoroughly showing that co-oper- ative spirit. When the calves decid- ed to get together for their own benefit first all opposition failed. Unity leads to conference which will ultimately result into co-operation, so stick together if you have to hang together in parts, Success crowns all co-operative efforts. Last Thursday night the Recta and Widows’ clubs joined hands and had a general surprise party at the house of Mrs. Harris, Twenty-fifth and Washington streets. So many good things were brought by the members that the table groaned with refresh- ments and the necessities of life. After the gathering much was left for the use of the family. The evening was pleasantly spend and other clubs can go and do the same thing, as everything will be appreciated. Mrs. Eliza Miller-Norris is on the sick list, as are Mesdames Harrison Coleman, A. B.

At last the grand old order has tri: umphed and reached the hearts of some of the people of Denver. Mr. Albert Hall, of 4792 Claude court, al: ready a Man of distinction, has crowned himself with laurels in being able to: organize the Ancient Sons and Daughters of Jerusalem amid such opposing opposition. It is a lodge in which father and daughter, mother and son, husband one rule by which to solve all difficult aim is “Look up, lift up,” by means of education and religion; with but one rule by which to sole all difficult problems which may arise, that is to “Do unto others as we would have them do to us.” The right and just with {ts cause, it was, too, crushed tc the ground, only to rise again. And only our Heavenly Father has in store sufficient blessings for such a man as Mr, Hall and his armour bearer, whose patience and energy was un tiring and accomplished such a task. After an elaborate lunch was served by the ladies all left the hall saying, “It was good to be here.” DON’T LET SKIN TROUBLES SPREAD.

He had fully decided to prepare him- self for usefulness in life, hence he en- tered Talladega college, ‘Talladega, Ala. He made the freshman class and after three years of study finished the college course. He was fortunate in be- ing selected as one of the commence- ment speakers. He delivered the com- mencement oration in June, 1907. His subject was, “The Signs of the Times.” In the fall of 1907 he entered Yale college, where after two years of hard work he finished with special honors in chemistry. With a diploma from Yale, saying nothing about the other institutions, he was ready to begin his career, His first work was nt Haines institute, Au- gusta, Ga., with Miss Lucy Laney. “He ‘wus called from there to the Muskoxee (Okla) high shoot to take charge of ‘the department of science.

When the position of superintendent was made vacant the board turned at- tention to this young man, although there were many applicants. He had Deen tried in the work of the school for four years, his ability tested, and he stood the test. He was selected for the place over many others, and he has made yood.

There have been many Smprovements Wade during the past two years.

When Professor Ish was called to the school as superintendent the en- rollment was 168. It is destined to be one of the greatest schdols In the south.

Phone Main 1702 Noted Institution Studies Life of Great Anti-slavery Orator. Centenaries afford very convenient opportunities for historical study, whether in individual or national life. The centennial of the American republic in 1876 is still for the purpose of the measure of national progress the most satisfactory milestone as yet discovered. From that period centennial celebrations of the fall of Yorktown, the adoption of the constitution and of the actual inauguration of the new republic have afforded occasions hitherto unknown for historical investigation. In none of these, except in a subordinate sense, has the American Negro been anything but a figure in the background. This year, 1917, which witnesses the centenary of the most forceful character in the life of the Negro, gives the opportunity for intensive study, up to this point neglected. The American Negro academy availed itself of the privilege of leading off in its twentieth annual meeting, held at Washington, to consider the career of Frederick Douglass. It has made a study of his life and character under comprehensive phases. The condition of the anti-slavery movement prior to the advent of Frederick Douglass was treated by Carter G. Woodson, who faced the movement from the French revolution to America, and only incidentally discussed the local measures, in which William Lloyd Garrison was the pioneer. Douglass as a reformer and agitator was most ably treated by Archibald H. Grinke, the president of the academy. The work of Mr. Douglass was most carefully analyzed and discussed both as respects his career in England and in America. Douglass as editor and newspaper controversialist was the theme of John E. Bruce of New York. There could have been no more fitting selection than in this instance. Mr. Bruce showed familiarity with Mr. Douglass' work as editor of the North Star, Frederick Douglass' paper, and other papers, as well as the knowledge of the contributions made by the great reformer to the newspapers of the period, as well as to the magazines, all displaying his unusual ability for the great career which gave him worldwide pre-eminence. With the emancipation in 1863 Mr. Douglass' work is by many considered done, but Professor Kelly Miller gave a resume of his subsequent work in reconstruction in politics as a public officer and as a lecturer. This work extended up to his death in 1895 and afforded a most excellent opportunity, which Mr. Miller did not fail to improve. But it was as an orator that Frederick Douglass will be best remembered. The selection of Judge Robert H. Terrell to illustrate as well as interpret this phase was most happy. He made an exhaustive study of Mr. Douglass' work as orator, beginning with his first appearance at Nantucket in 1841 and ending only with the efforts of his latest years. He made copions extracts from the different orations, and these he delivered with thrilling and dramatic effect. The Academy did not expect to exhaust the subject. It hoped to open the way which other organizations and communities would follow. The custom of the Academy is to publish the most important of the papers read before it, especially, as in the centenary of Frederick Douglass, when they have the sequence and the comprehensiveness which illustrate unity of thought, research and literary ability. VIOLIN AND PIANO RECITAL Mr. and Mrs. David Mannes Heard In Concert at Hampton Institute. Hampton, Va.—The violin and piano recital which David and Clara Mannes of New York gave at Hampton institute the week of Feb. 10 was a rare treat for 1,500 music lovers.

In this city has issued the following open letter to graduates and former students throughout the country: 'Office of the President, 639 F Street, Northwest, Washington, Feb. 8, 1917: "Dear Alumnus—The plan of the university in celebrating its semi-centennial, March 1, 2 and 8. includes the alumni and some time students of Howard university throughout the country. We are co-operating to make a showing commensurate with the opportunity, confidence and hopes of alma mater and to connect ourselves with this epoch making event. "We plan to reach, interest and register every alumnus and as many some time students as possible between now and March 8. We are requesting your aid in reviving local associations which may be inactive. Have lists of members and officers sent in immediately. Where no organisation exists please call a meeting at once and organize, sending us a list of members, listing some time students as associate members. "The plan throughout the country is to organize in every locality where Howard men and women are a celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the university with a public meeting and program concurrent with the big celebration to be held here on that date, and have telegrams of congratulation and expressions pour in through the General Alumni association, to be read at the public ceremony March 1. "Will you not as an alumnus rise to the spirit of the occasion and join us in a permanent memorial to the alumni in completing our gymnasium fund? If you have already pledged, in the campaign of 1912-13 or at any other time and have not paid in, your pledge is still alive and counted on. Should you wish to increase this the pleasure is yours. Should it be that you have not pledged please do so at once. Contributions of $1 for each year you may have been away from the university up to ten years and beyond that $1 for each five years or multiple thereof might appeal to you. In any event may we have your co-operation for not less than $10 on or before March 2? "Expressions approving this plan have been quite cordial, and responses thereto are expected to cement Howard and its alumni, as is the case in all other leading institutions. Come with us, and for once let us pull together. "We are planning also for representation from each local organization or group and should like to know in time, which means at once, how your group or organization will be represented so as to include them in our program. Fraternally your, "SHELBY J. DAVIDSON, "Pres. General Alumni Association. "W. W. COHRAN, Boston's Douglass Day Celebration.

Denver, Colorado Negroes Farming In Eastern Colorado. FIFTEEN years ago farming was discussed 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. ```markdown ``` 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 MRS. BOWSER TALKS AND MR. BOWSER IS AMAZED By M. QUAD F "And our dinner will be half an hour late?" "So you have been out since morning?" he growled. "You didn't say to me that you were going out." "I didn't know that I was a child or a slave!" Mr. Bowser sat down hard on his chair, and a strange look crept over his face. Here was something like rebellion, and, although he did not want a row at the table, he would use the iron heel after dinner. The meal passed in silence, and finally Mrs. Bowser said: Mr. Bowser sat down hard on his chair, and a strange look er face.

It was called for an early hour this forenoon." "Went to see about a woman's club, did you!" Mr. Bowser exclaimed. "I put my foot right down on that at once!" "It makes no difference where you put your foot, Mr. Bowser. We organized a club, and I shall attend as often as I please." "What!" he cried, rising half way up from his chair. "You heard what I said," replied Mrs. Bowser. "You belong to half a dozen clubs, and I find no fault with you, and you can find none with me. I had some errands to do after the meeting. I went to the wine and cider place "You heard what I said," replied Mrs. Bowser. "You belong to clubs, and I find no fault with you, and you can find none with some errands to do after the meeting. I went to the wine and where you make your purchases, and I told the man to send you and a cheaper brand of wine after this." By the Lord Harry!" shouted Mr. Bowser as he thumped his head. "You see," explained Mrs. Bowser, "you are not to have all the going. I shall cut your personal expenses down at least $3 a week money thus saved will be used to get me many little things a woman. Mr. Bowser turned plum color and gasped for breath. "I want to clean house next week," Mrs. Bowser quietly reminds don't want any of your help. Therefore, I went to a furnishing a owner is to send two men to do the work. You hear what I say: want any fuss about it! Mrs. Bowser looked him in the eye, and the room seemed to him. He tried to open his mouth to exclaim something or other, would not work. "Then I called at a candy store," continued Mrs. Bowser, "twenty packages of chewing gum and a four pound box of candy you'll pay for them. You smoke and have your wine, and it is one have these little extras to match." Mr. Bowser rose up and walked about with unsteady steps, and cat almost gave him a look of sympathy as Mrs. Bowser continued. "I had to stop at the grocery. I had to tell the grocer not to fill you gave there. I have discovered that you are absentminded as extravagant. You ordered four pounds of ginger the other day, and that your brain is a little confused. Then I went down to the butler him the same order." Mr. Bowser felt a sagging of the knees, and he had to sit down great effort he said, "Mrs. Bowser, I will leave this house!" "I have been expecting it for some time," she quietly replied made out a list of half- dozen boarding houses that I can recommend fact. I began packing your trunk a day or two ago." There was the stillness of death for two or three minutes, and on the hearth shut of his song, as if some one had hit him with tomato. It was Mrs. Bowser who broke the silence by saying: "You are not to buy any more new things. When anything I will do the buying! We shall get along better if you understand Bowser—that is, if you don't find some boarding house. Keep or tics! Don't write any more poetry! Don't dream of becoming actor! Don't give me orders as if you owned the earth! Think the over, Mr. Bowser, and—" Mr. Bowser staggered down the hall and reached for his hand went down the steps as if they were strange ones to him. Bump up the street as if he had never been in that neighborhood be by and by, a policeman found him leaning against a fence a w and cautioned him: "Better get home if you can, old man. You don't look to a man who is quite right in his head!" where you make your purchases, and I told the man to send you 5 cent cigars and a cheaper brand of wine after this." By the Lord Harry!" shouted Mr. Bowser as he thumped his leg. "You see," explained Mrs. Bowser, "you are not to have all the good things going. I shall cut your personal expenses down at least $3 a week, and the money thus saved will be used to get me many little things a woman needs." Mr. Bowser turned plum color and gasped for breath. "I want to clean house next week," Mrs. Bowser quietly remarked, "and I don't want any of your help. Therefore, I went to a furnishing store, and the owner is to send two men to do the work. You hear what I say, and I don't want any fuss about it!" Mrs. Bowser looked him in the eye, and the room seemed to whirl around him. He tried to open his mouth to exclaim something or other, but his jaws would not work. "Then I called at a candy store," continued Mrs. Bowser, "and ordered twenty packages of chewing gum and a four pound box of candy. Of course you'll pay for them. You smoke and have your wine, and it is only fair that I have these little extras to match." Mr. Bowser rose up and walked about with unsteady steps, and the family cat almost gave him a look of sympathy as Mrs. Bowser continued: "I had to stop at the grocery. I had to tell the grocer not to fill any orders you gave there. I have discovered that you are absentminded and recklessly extravagant. You ordered four pounds of ginger the other day, and that shows that your brain is a little confused. Then I went down to the butcher and gave him the same order." Mr. Bowser felt a sagging of the knees, and he had to sit down. After a great effort he said, "Mrs. Bowser, I will leave this house!"

In fact, I began packing your trunk a day or two ago."

Those fits come on without any particular cause, and they disappear when they get ready to without any help from any one. If Mr. Bowser had been a close observer of human nature he would have seen that, after about three days of his conduct, Mrs. Bowser was growing tired of it. One evening he came home to dinner just as she was taking off her hat and wrap. It was plain enough that she had been out somewhere; but, nevertheless, he gruffly inquired: "What!" he cried, rising half way up from his chair. THE WALKING FORTRESS FOUND HIM LEANING AGAINST A FENCE. Mr. Bower staggered down the hall and reached for his hat, and he went down the steps as if they were strange ones to him. He walked up the street as if he had never been in that neighborhood before, and, by and by, a policeman found him leaning against a fence a mile away and cautioned him: "Better get home if you can, old man.

MAJOR WRIGHT ON RACE MIGRATION VIEWS SITUATION CALMLY President of Georgia State Industrial College Believes Now Is Opportune Time For Limited Number to Enter Northern Industrial Field—But Hold Southern Home, He Says. Darien, Ga.—The address delivered in this town on the migration of colored people from the south by Major R. R. Wright, president of the Georgia State Industrial college at Savannah, recently was a most thoughtful and logical discourse. The address has caused widespread comment by leaders of both races in this part of the south. People from the rural districts of McIntosh county were here in unusually large numbers. Major Wright is very popular in McIntosh county and while in Darien A. MAJOR R. R. WRIGHT. met many of his old friends with whom he was associated several years ago when on several occasions he made campaign speeches in behalf of the Republican party. During the Spanish-American war Dr. Wright was one of the two colored men who served as paymaster in the army with the rank of major. The Morning News of Savannah, Ga., gives the following extract from Major Wright's address: "I have been asked to give my opinion of the movement of colored labor to the north. I regret to see or hear of so many colored people leaving the south. I must say that I am unqualified against the indiscriminate migration of these people to a climate and conditions to which they are not accustomed. You will recall that Frederick Douglass opposed the exodus of colored people to the north some years ago, when conditions in the south were worse than they are today. I can see, however, why some should go. "In fact, I believe that this going of a limited number will not hurt us, but may help. And perhaps now is the opportunity time for the Negro to enter the northern industrial field, when he can become a welcome member and an asset in the labor markets of the north. With many others I think the opening of the northern labor field may prove a great blessing to the race and to the south. If this opening is accepted cautiously and in wise numbers it will benefit the Negro laborer in many ways. "He will learn from his northern employers and competitors many lessons of efficiency and thrift. Unfortunately for our colored labor, we are too easy going. We lack punctuality and regularity. We don't labor long enough and steadily enough. Our habits of labor are not the most efficient. If we are forced to meet northern competition and succeed it will help the whole race. But let's not sell out our southern holdings. Let the one or two of the men of a family who go north make all the money they can and bring it back to the south. That's the way many of the European immigrants have done. "I say this, and yet I am not blind to the other causes which induce the colored men to leave the south. Let us confess that it is undoubtedly true that the high wages offered is the main cause. The fact that the European war caused a shortage in the northern labor force created a demand for unskilled labor which could be supplied from no other source than from the Negro of the south. "There are other alding causes, however, for this movement beaded low wages. Naturally the Negro, who is peculiarly adapted to a southern climate, prefers to remain in the south. He has made his best progress in the south. There are nearly a million Negro farm operators, and most of them are in the south. The total acreage of their farms is 42,279,510, valued at $1.141,792,526. In the value of farms operated there was an increase of 128.4 per cent during the last census decade, while the value of the farm property operated by white farmers for the same time increased only 99.0 per cent. The Negro is prospering in the south. Now, this and other facts constitute for the Negro a strong tie to the southern soil."

Waller of Indianapolis, Ind. silently passed into the Great Beyond Wednesday, Feb. 13, at the home of her son-in-law, Chas. S. Muse, the editor of The Star. Mrs. Waller was a slave and born in South Carolina and was soon taken to Georgia, where she resided until 1885, whence she went to Chattanooga, Tenn., where she and her family remained until 1893. In September of that year she came to Colorado where she joined Central Baptist. Later all the family decided to join Zion Baptist church, where Mrs. Waller was a faithful and efficient member. Mrs. Waller's family was originally 10, 8 boys and 2 girls, of whom only three boys and one girl live. Word has been received by the relatives that her son, R. D. Waller, is not expected to live in Indianapolis. The funeral was at 2 p. m., officiated over by Rev. D. E. Over, Zion's pastor, Friday afternoon. Mrs. Waller was loved by all who knew her. May her ashes rest in peace. THE SICK.

Miss Hazel Rolland at her residence last Friday evening gave a house recital to demonstrate before her friends her progress in music. Many of the classics were played and she made a deep impression upon her hearers for her technique, interpretation and artistic skill in handling her musical studies as far as she had gone. Mr. and Mrs. Rolland, as was also her music teacher, Mrs. G. N. Ross, were proud of the achievement made by her. At the Odd Fellows entertainment J. W. Sailes won the $5 by drawing 352; Chas. Massey, who held 360, drew $3, and Douglas Miller $2 because he held 192. Prof. Jesse J. Johnson, terpsichorean instructor and dancing artist, has just arrived from St. Louis, Mo. Mrs. Mollie Allen, a popular Denver favorite, who was sojourning in Douglas, Wyo., has gone to Los Angeles, Cal., to spend the winter and spring. Last Friday the Douglas, Wyo., Oil Co. received this message: "Forty feet today. Two changes in formation. Real black sooty shale and lighter black shale at 940. Gas bubbles evident. G. M. Nohe." Since then, 1,000 feet has been reached with still oil dripping from tools. It will take several days for them to extend their casings. Lawyer Geo. G. Ross has removed his law office to 929 17th st., room 23, 1st door above the stairs. Phone Main 6782.

Old Colony hall was more artistically decorated Wednesday night (Valentine's night) than it has been before since its occupancy by the present management. There were the garden of hearts, the streets of blissful joy and the avenue of pleasure situated in each corner so tastefully ornated with colored electric lights covered with streamers of vari-colored flowers. To add to the effect and to enhance the increased happiness, the men were given the keys and the ladies Cupid hearts reddened with flashes of love and emotion. When the reporter was there Cupid was continuously hurling his love darts indiscriminately over the hall, narrowly missing him. This idea and scheme originated in the brain of Mrs. Bertha Calloway, the president of the Ville de Paris club, the spreaders of joy and makers of pleasure. The winsome and captivating queen of dreamland was Miss Clara Parker, who led the Cupid girls. A lovely crowd of the young misses and excellent music by Jackson's orchestra and a royal good time was the grand treat had in the garden of hearts by the Ville de Paris girls. Our hats are off to Mrs. Calloway who knows how to put joy spots in dreamland. Thursday night, March 22, the last of the series of musical activities for the winter will be staged. An enlarged chorus of local talent and other musical professionalists will uncover themselves in recital of distinctively Negro compositions. The weight of the music, the significance of the matter and the ability of the performers ought to commend the concert to the entire community.
