It Pays To Advertise. Get Wise and Let The Denver Star Talk For You TWENTY-SEVENTH YEAR FRANK F. FITCHUE The Only Negro Copper King in Colorado. Frank F. Fitchue, was born in the suburbs of Kansas City Mo. September 15, 1855, was raised in and near Lawrence coming to Colorado and localing at Durango 36 years ago. Thirty years ago he be came interested in mining and prospected during his spare time when off duty. He worked for 12 years for the Durango Bank and Trust Co. as porter, from which place he went to manage the great Misouri mine which he thinks will not only make him rich but famous. For 7 years he was employed in the First National Bank of that city and enjoyed the greatest confidence of his employers. Taking over the active management, he soon found that this great mine would require not only his time there but him living right at the mine and he, therefore moved to his mine last November to live. The Missouri Copper Mine. The Missouri group is the largest known group of copper mineral in the State and is situated in Montezuema County, South of Rico Camp FRANK F. FITCHUE on the Rio Grande Southern Rail road, extending one mile. It being situated among some of the ranches, at all times of the year it is of easy access, crossing the State Highway, as well as, the Dolores River. Mr. Fitchue employs 4 miners who have been and are now mining some fine bodies of ore consisting of gold, silver and copper values. The vein is 100 feet wide and prospects for a great milling property are evident. So flat tering are the wealthy anticipations that a local syndicate have offered to bond and lease the same for a handsome price. Ore extracted from this mine easily runs $100 a ton. Preparations are being made for the installing of a side track for shipping purposes, the distance from the mine to the side-track being 600 feet. Frank F. Fitchue is the sole owner, a young unmarried man who owns a love ly home at 769 6th Ave., Durango, Colo., a church man, being a member of the St. Marks Episcopal Church The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 Number 184 RAPID ENLISTMENT OF NEGROES FOR EUROPE Dublin, Ga.—That Negroes are being enlisted rapidly in the army of England, in Canada, was the statement of Congressman-elect W. W. Larson, who returned recently from a business trip to Canada. "At Windsor," said Judge Larson "I was surprised to see a large sprinkling of Negro soldiers among the recruits who were being prepared for service in Europe. I mentioned it to the man with whom I was transacting business and he told me that several hundred Colored troops from the Southland had been enlisted recently at Windsor and would be sent to Europe with the other troops. He told me they were all from my section of the country. "To my surprise, also, I found them scattered among the white men promiscuously and not in separate companies Both whites and blacks seemed to be on good terms with each other and as chummy as soldiers generally get." Students Rebuffed As Naval Recruits Washington, D. C.—The story is told of three Howard University sophomores who offered to join the navy When they asked what service would be required of them they were told they would be assigned to the 'mess department'—that is, to the dining room service. The young men sadly turned their faces Howard University Hill way and "beat it." They were not burning with desire to serve the nation in war times as servants for naval officers, and they were quite right about it. Such service is good enough in its place and way, but not for young men of education who should be able to serve the government as others do and be in line to receive the honors and emolument usually awarded for meritorious services. This condition of affairs cannot very well always exist, but is bad enough in all conscience now in the army and naval service. (white) of Durango. He is also a faithful and loyal member of Rocky Mt. Lodge No. 1, F. and A. M. of Denver and has been for years. It would be nice during our visiting excursions to Denver if arrangements could be made for our own people to see the only real copper king of Color of Colorado who own, controls and operates his own mine. We often wonder why more interest is not taken in things surrounding the mines reducing his influence to be helpful to us, Colorado and Denver are proud of our Missouri mine. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, APRIL 14, 1917 Man's Mistakes, God's Opportunity No one of honest mind, examining thoroughly into the affairs and relationships of men, can possibly doubt that law of love and charity has been most grossly violated persistently and consciously since that law was first enunciated. But this is only the beginning of the list of failures on man's part to live in harmony with God's commands. In fact, our whole civilization is permeated from top to bottom with the rottenness of sin and selfishness. Such a broad and sweeping statement does not in the least controvert the equally true statement that there are many true, sincere, loyal followers of Christ whose light is shining steadily and brightly, and whose lives make all the more clear by force of contrast the surrounding darkness. Because sin is so terrible a thing and its consequences so horrible is no reason for doubting the goodness of God or His love to man. For on the other hand, the consequences of his obeying His laws and living in Harmony with His will do unquestionably bring peace and joy, add all the satisfactions of a life well spent. Unless we admit this corresponding truth we merely give proof that we are narrow-minded and disposed to consider but one side of the problem. An honest, fair-minded and dispassionate study of the whole matter will compell us to admit that there is no true reason for doubting our God or His love to man. Let us rather be fair-minded enough to put the blame where it truly belongs—upon ourselves. DOES GOD USE WRATH OF MEN TO SHOW HIS LOVE? No truer than today are the lines of that famous hymn "God moves in a mysterious way, His wonders to perform, He plants His footsteps upon the seas, and rides upon the storm." No more applicable to any state of facts than to those now making up the worlds war situation. Why has benighted savage, Altruistic and pagan Africa, and Madagascar been compelled to give her mite of strength, power and all in this civilized war fare among Christian brothers? Why have the Negroes been so affected in the United States that their unfavorable condition in the South, has been touched thru European bullets? Why did American Negroes, Multeers, Seamen and Soldiers alike, have to give up their lives in the most modern Christian warfare when America was being threatened with dismemberment? Why are monarchies being weakened and destroyed and democratic and republican forms of government being established in their places over night, as it seems? Why are the most oppressed peoples being touched by Governmental and economic circumstances as never before? Why? In short does God know what is best for man, and did Christ make a mistake when He stated God's laws for man? A world catastrophe so great as the present war must of necessity produce results unexpected. We read with tranquil mind perhaps of the great wars of the past. In the light of the events preceding and following those wars, they seem not so strange or unusual. In fact, reasoning from cause to effect we may almost say such changings and overturnings were unavoidable. But when we live in the midst of such a time of terror and distress, when the brutal instincts of man unrestrained by law or convention burst forth in all their true and horrid nakedness, when honor which even thieves are supposed to respect, is found to be an unknown quantity, then questions begin to arise, and many begin to doubt even those eternal verities upon which they thought were founded their faith in God and man. It is one thing to read of a fight to the death; it is quite another thing to be a participant in such a struggle. All who sympathize with the weakness of human nature feel the need of exercising not a little charity for those who once proclaimed a glowing faith in God's goodness and love, and who now find that their faith wavers, that the sunlight of their hope is dimmed, that cruel doubt of the very existence of a God who is good constantly recurs, and whose lapse into pessimism is a serious stumbling block to others. In looking back over many of the tragic events of history we have brought home to us the truth so well stated centuries ago; "Surely the wrath of man shall praise Thee; the remainder of wrath shalt Thou restrain." One or two examples will show. The terrible outbreak of man's cruelty and stupidity shown in the horrors of the inquisition caused the faith of many to waver, and not a few to deny their Lord. But can any one now question that, by the wisdom of Almighty God, this fearful storm of man's wrath was made the very instrument whereby the flame which was intended to consume and destroy those who believed in worshipping their God accord their conscience, was converted into the very means whereby religious liberty eventually became dominant? Persecution drove our forefathers across the seas; but the landing at Plymoth Rock was symbolic of that rock foundation of freedom to think and believe as we choose in which was to be founded the future growth and stability of our country. The awful slaughter of our Civil War preceded the firmer establishment of the Union and the freedom of the slave, The All attempts to understand the mystery of suffering will end much like the attempt to understand the mystery of original sin; the mystery will remain a mystery still. But suffering like sin must be accepted as an undeniable fact just as the phenomena of nature must be accepted as undeniable facts, although they are but partially understood. Even if we may not fully comprehend the mystery of suffering, there are many truths related to it that no one denies and which may be found in their acceptance to have some bearing on the almost staggering problem of the war. Since the time when man first broke the law of God suffering has been as common in the experience of men as the air we breathe. Even the holy Son of God endured calmly, bravely, patiently, sufferings beyond the experience of any of the sons of men. Now we do not find doubts arise because sin and sorrow and suffering have been and are so universal. We accept this fact as something dreadful, indeed, and to a great extent unnecessary in view of Christ's cleansing blood, but we do not doubt the goodness of God or His wondrous love to man because these things are true. Rather is our faith in Him strengthened and our love for Him deepened since, not withstanding our sins and consequent suffering, His love prevails over all peace comes o through acceptance of His marvelous gift. Now why should our faith stumble, when the sorrow, suffering and agony are multiplied even to the terrible proportions due to this war? No new principle has entered into the problem. The factors are the same. If two times two equals four, is there any new truth stated when we say four times four equals sixteen? If sin drove Adam from Eden, and if sin caused the death on Calvary, should we wonder that sin represented by twenty centuries of the outrageous neglect of Christ's law to love one another should result in such a war? No new factors has entered into the problem. Reasoning from cause to effect, some such cataclysm seems to have been inevitable. Surely the consequence of sin cannot be questioned. The history of mankind leaves no loophole of escape from the conclusion: "the wages of sid is death." Maine civilian & Civil legal history Booklet FIVE CENTS A CODE Kansas City, Mo.,—Homer J.

Fifty five dollars was found in the man's clothing. It is said that the woman had been out west for some time and there had met Martin. She fled to Kansas City to get rid of him, as he was opposed to having her assoctate with men of her own race. Martin was a brake man on a western railroad. Elizabeth, N. J.—At a meeting of the Board of Health held a few days ago a resolution was adopted requesting all employers of imported labor subjected to a medical examination before employing them. The resolution is aimed at colored labor coming from the South, as many of the hundreds coming here last year died of tuberlosis, while many others died of pneumonia because of the sudden change of climate. Some of them left families that are a care on the public. same principle is found prevailing in the long, slow, and sometimes disheartening advance of civilization from lower to higher planes. Why then should we doubt that after this unspeakably fearful time of suffering the same advance will be true? Many of us may not live long enough to see the wonderful way in which God will use this tempest of man's wrath for His greater praise and glory, but we may on this rest assured, that whatsoever of the storm would not work out for his greater praise and the eventual benefit of mankind, will be restrained. Never yet have His promises failed; never yet has there been a reversal of that law of advance just noted; never yet, in all the darkest scenes of tragedy and gloom has the light of faith failed and gone out in the hearts of all of His true believers; and never yet has that faith failed of justification in the light of future events. Though He slay me yet shall I trust Him." was uttered centuries ago before our Christ had given the final and most complete proof of love divine. Remembering that wondrous life of sacrifice, suffering, sorrow and death for you and me, cannot our faith remain firm and true, even under the agony and distress of the present war, when we recall that the love of God was the reason for the Star of Bethlehem and the sacrifice on Calvary? To be sure we cannot understand such a love as this, but at least we may be true to it, glory in it, and never question it. —J W. JOHNSON. Church News CAMPBELL CHAPEL AFRICAN M. E.

THE ZION BAPTIST CHURCH, 24th Avenue and Ogden. David E. Over, D. D., Minister. Telephones, York 6007, York 9377 Easter Sunday was the closing of one of the most remarkable campaigns for soul winning the Zion Church has ever known. And the day was a fitting climax to a series of meetings which have attracted the attention of community in a manner unusual to say the least. Instead of the usual Easter program three baptismal services were held and the day was closed by a most happy Communion Service, perhaps the most largely attended in the history of the church. At ten o'clock Sunday morning the Sunday School assembled in the main auditorium of the church and while an appropriate program of song was being rendered the pastor administered the right to those children who had been made ready for the service. At eleven o'clock a sermon on "Baptism" was preached to an immense congregation at the close of which the women candidates were led into the baptismal waters. Perhaps the most thrilling and impressive service during the day was that held at 3:30 o'clock in the afternoon, specially appointed for the baptism of men. There have been few occasions in the experience of the church in which dramatic spiritual interest has reached a higher plane than when, one after another, strong men, weeping and confessing their faith in Christ, were led into the crystal waters to be "buried with Him by baptism into death." At the evening hour the sermon was given by Dr. J. W. Anderson of New Jersey, following which the entire church, including the new members, solemnly reaffirmed the covenant in Christ Jesus, the hand of fellowship was given, and all sat down to the "Table of the Lord." It was a glorious day! The wonderful manifestation of Spirit, testifying the goodness of God, so reached the heart of the church as to have baptised a new bond of fellowship in a flood of copious tears. The day's services gave us four additional new members, three of whom confessed Christ for baptism. This brings the total number to 101, eighty of whom were candidates for baptism. The campaign was remarkable in that it developed a real heart movement in the church toward personal evangelism, and the great success was due in large measure to the prayer and activity of a large number of individuals organized in groups for definite service. Unsaved men and women were prayerfully chosen as subjects to be brought to Christ, and the glorious experience which ran throughout the meetings came through the definite answer of the Father to the plea of His children. Men ordinarily thought to be beyond reacme melted into submission by the power of prayer. This has given to the church faith and courage to go forward and the prayerful expectation is that many more will fall before the archers of His Kingdom. Thursday night the membership will gather to give a welcome and fellowship supper to the new members. It is expected and desired that every member of the church who can by any means be present will not fail to be there. A short program of songs and addresses will be held after which the evening will be given over to real fraternal relationship. The church would be pleased to invite all its friends to this meeting were it not for the fact that the membership will fully tax the capacity of our spacious building. The pastor desires to take occasion to express the deep gratitude of the church for the interest and response of the many friends whose presence in the meetings contributed no small share to the great success. PEOPLE'S PRESBYTERIAN. E. 23rd Ave. and Washington St. Pastor, J. A. Thos-Hazell, T. B. T. SERMON TOPICS: SUNDAY APRIL 15. 1917 11.00 A. M.—"Post Easter Meditations, 5:00 P. M.—"Post Easter Musicale" 5:00 P. M.—"Post Easter Musicale" All three services last Sabbath beginning with 6 o'clock proved immeasently successful from every conceivable angle. The 11 o'clock prograff under the auspices of the Sabbath School with Mrs. J. Thomas presiding was one of the very best of its kind delivered. The children acquired theselves fhost creditably. The Easter Offering for the work of evangelizing the peoples of Latin America was very cofmendable. In connection with the afternoon prograff the piano duet and the violin selection staged were performed respectively by Prof. George Morrison and Miss Dimple Gatewood. The former surpassed his usual efficiency on this occasion. Miss Gatewood riveted the large audience's attention thruout her entire rendition. She possesses such quality of tones, due in affecting her higher register, and is an adept in adjusting herself to produce the best musical expressions. Miss Frankie Buchanan as usual pleased the critics while Miss Mabel Cole sustained in a marked degree her reputation as a vocalist. The chorus work was up to the standard. Miss Gertrude Striplillin's literary was a masterpiece. It took volume of praise for the composer and reader. Messrs Clark, Gatewood, Brickler Bros. Evans were a musical asset to the rendition of those selections last Sabbath. The organist did his part with much grace and efficiency. The Post-Easter Recital takes place tomorrow at 5 o'clock in the evening. Selections will be from the lent, Palm Sunday and Easter pieces. Everyone is cordially invited. The Presbytery of Denver convenes in the South Broadway Church next Tuesday. Rev. Thos. Hazell and Elder Lou Hughes will represent the People's Church. Rev.

Fare 9 cents, NEW MOVEMENT FOR EDUCATION Lofty Purpose of the Durham Commission Stated, HOW THE IDEA ORIGINATED Promoters of Conference on Education Held at the National Training School, Durham, N. C., In 1916 Outline Plan For a Thorough Survey and Study of Secondary Schools. 4 New York.—At a meeting held on March 28 at 70 Fifth avenue in this city a commission was organized to be known as the Durham Commission to Study the American Negro, ‘This meet- ing grew out of the educational confer- ence called by Dr. J. H, Shepard and held at the National Training school, Durham, N. C., from Nov, 21 to 24, 1916, It seemed to the many persons of prominence who attended this con- ference that 1t would be too bad to haye the matter end simply with in- formation and resolutions. They deter- mined, therefore, to appoint a perma- nent commission to study present con- ditions in Negro education, Many were aware that similar stud- jes bad been made in the past and that at present certain investigations were being prosecuted, but they learned with regret that in the present inves- tigations white investigators were con- cerned and that colored men of knowl- edge and with deep interest in the subject had been carefully exclud- ed from all participation. It seemed ‘absolutely certain that no real study of the American Negro could take place without the participation of competent Negroes, since they possess knowledge and have access to sources of knowl- edge of their own race which no others could command. A commission was therefore appoint- ed to begin the work of research un- der the chairmanship of Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois, editor of the Crisis Maguzine and former director of the social stud- jes made for fourteen years at Atlanta uriversity. Dr. James E, Shepard, president of the National ‘Training school, undertook the difficult task of raising funds for the commission. ‘The commission met in New York with the chairman, Dr. Shepard, pre- siding; Mr. William G. Pearson of the Durham public schools, President W. J. Hale of the Tennesse’ Normal school, Mr. J. A. Cotton of the Hender- son (N. C,) institute and President W. 8. Scarborough of Wilberforce univer- sity present. President Rendell of Lin- coln university and Dr. J. W. B. Bowen of Gammon seminary were detained. ‘The commission decided to undertake a survey of secondary schools for the education of the Negroes in the United States, with the idea of ascertaiping the number and distribution of these schools, thelr equipment and effictency, thelr attendance and teaching force, their income and expenditure and the extent to which they are filling the de mand for secondary education among colored people. ‘The 300 schools which are to be studied are divided into three districts ‘of about 100 schools each, and a year is to be devoted to the study of each district. ‘The method of study will in- yolve investigation by correspondence, for the gathering of material and per- sonal visits to the schools. A report will be prepared and published each year. The general form of procedure in gathering this information will be sub- mitted for suggestion and approval tc the Sage foundation, to the general education board and to the trustees ot the Slater fund, and their co-operatior in the work will be asked. The same procedure will be followed in the case of various denominational educational boards. It is proposed that after this survey of education the commisslor turn its attention to other fields of in vestigation concerning the Americar Negro, with the idea of establishing 41 connection with the National ‘Training school and in co-operation with other institutions and organizations a syste matic series of surveys into the social condition of the American Negro. Organizing to Defend Country’s Honor. ‘The patriotiam of the co:ored men of the country is being expressed in. no un- certain way as the international situa- tion grows more acute. At Hagers- town, Md., the latter part of March, W. A.

Within a few hours after Mr. Freeman had made known bis plans forty-six recruits were enrolled.

History of the Movément, By R. W. THOMPSON. ‘Washington.—One of this city’s most helpful and progressive institutions is the Interstate Old Folks’ home at 1512 Corcoran street, northwest. It 4s plan- ned by its promoters and sponsors to be a comfortable retreat for the aged of both sefes who may have no rela- tives or friends to look after them when their period of activity is about to draw toa close. Provision is mage not only for old folks without means, but the management, conscious of the fact that there are many persons in esSy circumstances who have aged kin or dependents for whom they have no adequate accommodations in the places where they may themselves abide, has provided for such. An institution where these loved ones can be cared for in a satisfactory way and where they may be surrounded with all the comforts of home fills a Mrs. Woodreff, of the Famous Hair Grower, asks the question: “Why do women have short hair and men go bald head- ed, when the Famous Hair Grower will grow the most stub- born hair?” IT REMOVES DANDRUFF, STOPS FALLING HAIRJMAKES THE HAIR SOFT, DARKER AND GIVES IT A BEAUTIFUL GLOSS.

It was incor- porated a few years ago by a group of Public spirited citizens of Washington for the rellef of the old, infirm and in- digent people of America. While inau- gurated Jargely by Baptists, the insti- tution is broader than denominational lines. It is absolutely nonsectarian in practice and national in scope. It has the indorsement of the leading religious and business agencies of the land and 4s rapidly approaching the point where ite necessity 1s plainly seen and its helpful influence readily recognized by all classes of people. It 1g now housed in a magnificent and commodious mansion at 1512 Cor- coran street, in the heart of one of the best residential sections of the Dis- trict of Columbia and convenient of access from every point. ‘The home has recently acquired in Fairfax coun- ty, Va., a farm of fifty acres, on which there is an eight room house, with a well stocked orchard, fine water and garden plots already prepared for vege- tables. ‘The board of trustees is made up of Rey.

During the latter part of last February (1916), Mrs. Julia Mansfield Chambers opened up a first-class, modern beauty parlor at 2553 Washington Street, under the name and style of the "Denver Beauty Parlor." Having been born in Louisville, Ky., and educated there as well as in Chicago, Ill. Mrs. Chambers came to Denver well qualified in every way to operate and manage a first-class business. And having a peculiar attraction for women's most needful essential for beauty, she chose the study of scientifically growing and artistically beautifying the hair with the attending scalp problems. She became an apt student and later graduating from the "Poro College" of St. Louis, Mo., at once opened her beauty parls which made her very prominent and successful as a business woman of keen acumen. Slowly and steadily her business constantly increased until she was found working from early morn till late at night. So prosperous was she that many flattering offers for sale were constantly coming to her until Mrs. Jennie Bradshaw was the lucky person who became her successor in business. We saw Mrs. Chambers start and grow and it is a tribute to our Negro womanhood to see how a woman thoroughly alive can, single-handed wring success in a competitive market with all kinds of complex problems steadily arising. She was a staunch member of Zion Baptist Church. She left for Detroit, Michigan, where she will open up a first-class parlor there. The Poro College has taken special interest in her and even provided her with a desirable location in a suitable neighborhood. The Star wishes Mrs. Chambers all kinds of success and may more of our girls emulate her example in the business world. Mrs. George S. Contee of 2612 Welton street is reported very ill at her residence. Everyone who loves you, loves to see you smile, loves to see you cheerful and happy all the while.

Purpose of New Association Founded by William Preston Moore. New York. The Fortnightly Lecture association is the name of a new organization founded by William Preston Moore among the employees of the general education board in this city. The purpose of the association is to create greater efficiency among its members and to foster a more general spirit of personal-responsibility and pride in doing things. At one of the meetings in March Mr. Moore delivered a lecture on "Personal Cleanliness." He in part said: "Personal cleanliness expresses a hygienic disposition to the physically clean. Clean is free from what is dirty or foul. It sometimes means free from what is obstructive, dirt being always obstructive, as 'to make a clean way for himself through a mob.' It is used in a moral sense, as 'to make a clean breast,' and in old Scriptural English as 'clean hands' and 'a pure heart.' We use the term as expressive of the correct individual's personal tidiness and careful attention to the hygienic laws of society in general. "From an individual point of view with a rather general application, salaried persons and wage earners engaged in occupations and other operations similar to our own positions or otherwise, by every possible personal effort ought to see that the speech, the teeth, the breath, the body, the hair, the hands, the nails, the shoes, the eyes and the clothes are kept clean, neat, tidy and presentable at all times and in all places. "An individual who has self pride and self respect and self consciousness will obviously observe the laws and requirements of personal cleanliness as pre-eminently prerequisite in the performance of the duties required and assigned the person in question. Therefore we should cultivate the habit of personal cleanliness everywhere. "In observing the necessity of personal cleanliness and in keeping with our occupations and other operations, dress within the 'cable tow' of our im- THE NEW YORKER WILLIAM PRESTON MOORE. mediate environments and incomes from our salaries and wages, as the case may be. Such dress need not be 'sporty' or even 'flashy' or 'chic' in the sense of the Broadway sport or the Harlem dude or the dandy, but neat, becoming and presentable. "Personal cleanliness is essentially in accord with personal pride and self government of the person. It doesn't cost much to keep clean. It is very costly at times to be untidy and unclean. It pays one a better dividend to be clean than otherwise. Employers as a rule, more or less closely scrutinize very carefully the deportment, dress, speech, appearance and neatness of their employees. "Usually they observe carefully in detail, therefore it behooves us as employees to closely observe the laws and requirements of sanitary measures for our own preservation and presentation of tomorrow. Keep healthy, likewise keep clean teeth, breath, body, speech, habits, hands, nails, shoes and clothes. each requisite requirement as enumerated above in its order of procedure receiving proportionate attention and care in the exercise of personal cleanliness and physical hygiene. all of which is conducive to good health and good appearance." RESOLUTIONS OF REGRET. Howard University Feels Its Loss In Death of Bishon Walters The board of trustees of Howard university in Washington has adopted the following resolutions on the death of Bishop Alexander Walters, who was a member of the board: Whereas, The board of trustees of Howard university has learned with the deepest regret of the death at his home in New York city of Bishop Alexander Walters of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion church, a valued member of this council, a most evident and forceful factor in the educational and religious life of the nation. Therefore, be it resolved, That in his passing away this university has lost his valued services and counsel, the nation an aggressive and forceful Christian leader and the church a successful and self-sacrificing minister and officer. These resolutions be spread upon the minutes of the board, that a copy be sent to his bereaved family and, further, that a copy be given to the press. Annual Program of Physical Department Embraced Many Fine Features. One of the finest numbers on the program of the third gymnasium exhibit, given recently at Hampton institute, was the aesthetic dancing of Miss Carriebel B. Cole. She interpreted with excellent technique and artistic insight Chopin's mazurka, op. 17, No. 1, and Kreisler's "Liebesfreud," played by Mrs. R. Nathaniel Dett. Miss Cole has completed the postgraduate course at Sargent, has taken courses at Columbia university and has studied with some of the best private teachers in New York. She is now a teacher of physical training in the Washington public schools. The annual Hampton gymnasium program, to which the public is invited, represents work done during the year and is given with the idea and hope of promoting a greater appreciation of wholesome recreation. The program included wand, apparatus and dumbbell exercises; gymnasium exhibitions for boys and girls, playground demonstrations for girls and boys and characteristic folk dances. The idea of the playground demonstrations was to show in a concrete way how the children's playtime may be utilized. The Hampton physical director for girls is Miss Louise G. Russell, for boys Charles H. Williams. R. Nathaniel Dett served as pianist. BIG BROTHER MOVEMENT. Effort to Save Erring Boys Aided by New York Clergymen. New York.—At the morning services the pastors of twenty-four churches and missions in this city on Sunday, March 25, made an appeal for men to become interested in boys and assist in reducing the number of arraignments in the children's court this year. The parents' responsibilities were clearly shown by the pastors in their sermons. An active big brother was present at each church and told how efforts are being made to bring an erring child in frequent association with successful men whose moral characters are above reproach. They showed how this movement had caused many boys who were on the border line of entering criminal careers because of bad associates and environments to become useful and respectable citizens. In the afternoon a public meeting was held in St. James' Presbyterian church, West One Hundred and Thirty-seventh street, at which time the present problems of boys was interestingly portrayed in addresses made by Messrs. Junius M. Green, president of the Brotherhood of St. James' church Lester H. Clee, boys' secretary of the New York City Sunday School association; Eugene Knickle Jones, executive secretary of the National Urban league; James H. Anderson, editor of the Amsterdam News; Jacob Theobald principal of public school No. 80, Manhattan; Captain James J. Ward, in command of the Thirty-eighth prefect, and Charles O'Rourke, attendance officer for the Harlem school district. As Ernest K. Coulter was called to Easton, Pa., on account of an important business engagement, the speaker of the afternoon was Rowland C. Sheldon, general secretary of the Big Brother movement. Captain Ward stated he had just appointed Patrolman Samuel J. Battle, who was the presiding officer at this meeting, as one of the two "crime prevention officers." Mr. Battle will co-operate with the Big Brother movement and other local welfare organizations. The soloists were Messrs. William D. Hill and Andrew Pendleton, while Miss Patricia Ferguson and Mrs. F. M. Hyder were the accompanists. Secretary Thomas E. Taylor of the Y. M. C. A. led the choral singing. Charles C. Allison, Jr., secretary of the Colored Big Brothers, with offices at 2303 Seventh avenue, stated other public meetings will be held in the fall. SUNDAY SCHOOL CONGRESS. Leaders of Great Religious Gathering Are Preparing For Annual Meeting. The leaders in the work of the Sunday school congress have mapped out an extensive and interesting program for the annual meeting to be held at Nashville, Tenn., from Wednesday, June 13, to the 18th, inclusive. Secretary Henry Allen Boyd, who returned to Nashville the last of March from a lengthy tour in the interest of the congress, was warmly received by the Sunday school and other religious workers in every city and town which he visited. Mr. Boyd's theme for all of the addresses which he delivered on his tour was "Front Line Sunday Schools and How to Make Them." The Nashville convention is expected to surpass in point of attendance and actual results obtained any previous gathering of the congress since it was organized ten years ago. Sunday schools in all sections of the country hold membership in the congress. Manhood Rights and Race Migration. The migration of colored people from the south by the hundreds and thousands continues. Back of the many causes given for this great exodus of our people from the south is more than a mere desire for higher wages. The younger element of the race will not stand for the withholding of the ballot from those entitled to it; hence they are going where they can vote their convictions like other citizens of this country without being mandated.

MANY IMPROVEMENTS MADE President of Thrifty Organization of Women Tells an Interesting Story of What Has Been Accompiled Through Co-operative Effort—Opens Beautiful City Garden. By Mra. S. C. FERNANDIS. Baltimore. — The work of the Women's Co-operative Civic league, as carried on through its committees in this city, embraces the activity of the home gardens committee, of which Mra. J. Logan Jenkins is chairman. This committee, as in former years, has been active in the past year in developing the idea of the "city beautiful" through the encouragement of the cultivation of back yard gardens and window boxes. New neighborhoods have been reached during the past year, and a larger number of prizes than ever before has been awarded. A public meeting has been held, and the story of the "city beautiful" has been carried to new groups. The whole league, with a number of friends and well wishers, joined the home gardens committee last May to make the flower mart at Perkins square one of our most satisfactory achievements. The beautifully decorated square, the crowds of patrons and the perfect order withal made it one of the most successful demonstrations of the work of the league. Co-operating with Mrs. Derringer of the Women's Civic league, the league has established at Carey and Winchester streets a city garden, the first in a neighborhood among our people, which must now be developed and enlarged A. MRS. S. C. FERNANDIS. by our home gardens committee. City tree planting has also been encouraged by the home gardens committee, and in its program at a public meeting held at Payne Memorial church much stress was laid upon this phase of city planning. The refuse disposal committee, under the leadership of Mrs. J. Creditt Jones, held one of the most interesting meetings of the year at Sharon Baptist church. It has carried on its campaign for clean, healthy premises in a spirit of co-operation with the municipality. When the mayor of Baltimore instituted a campaign for a cleaner and a more healthful city he was strongly aided by the Women's Co-operative Civic league. Mrs. Hannah Free by her zoological personal work awakened a great deal of interest in her own neighborhood, and the outcome of her activity was the awarding of several prizes for window boxes. A milk propaganda has been in an interesting state of development for the past few months. Mrs. Johnson, chairman of our milk committee, has endeavored to keep in close touch with all that has been developed by the milk committee of the Women's Clyric league. Now that a milk ordinance has been introduced and promises to be a great sanitary benefit a campaign of education will be waged. At one of our meetings one of the public schoolteachers told of the need for penny luncheons in the public schools. To start these luncheons has been one of the long cherished plans of the education committee of the Women's Civile league. When the idea of enlarging the scope of the luncheon, which has been carried on at the day nursery, by transferring it to the neighborhood public school, the education committee gave its full co-operation. Under the direction of Mrs. C. L. Davis funds to open a penny luncheon in school 107 have been secured. Another of the cherished plans of the league has been the organization of clean city clubs in the schools. Within the past few months Mrs. R. G. Chisell, with a very ardent and efficient club of coworkers and in co-operation with Miss O'Nell of the Women's Civic league, has organized clubs in schools 107, 112, 113 and 116. The executive family consists of Mrs. M. A. Hawkins, vice president; Mrs. B. K. Hurst, treasurer, and Miss Fannie Hayes, secretary.

The value of the Salt Creek Petroleum holdings at present is more than $160,000.00, which makes the stock which has been sold, worth $2.40 a share. In the next twenty days we expect to see Salt Creek Petroleum selling on the Casper curb at $1.10. You were perhaps to late to obtain some of the 25 cent stock. Get your reservations before the next raise. The Kansas-Colorado Oil Refining advanced to 10c. Tuesday. This stock is to be listed on the Denver Exchange in the next few days at not less than 25c. Phone Main 4911-4912 FINANCIAL BOARD TO MEET. Report of Secretary J. R. Hawkins Awaited With Much Interest. The annual meeting of the financial board of the A. M. E. church will be held at the headquarters of the depar- ment, 1541 Fourteenth street, north west. Washington, on Wednesday. April 18. Reports will be made of the moneys collected and expended during the past fiscal year.

Professor John R. Hawkins, one of the most prominent laymen in the denomination, has filled the post of financial secretary for the past five years. His work there is regarded as one of high efficiency. Bishop Benjamin F. Lee is chairman of the financial board and will preside at the coming meeting. Secretary John R. Hawkins' report, which is always clear and concise, is awaited with much interest. MEETING OF PHYSICIANS. Georgia State Organization Holds Session In Savannah May 15. The big event for the colored citizens of Savannah, Ga., the third week in May will be the meeting of the Georgia state convention of physicians. The sessions of the convention will be held in the St. Philip A. M. E, church, of which the Rev. Dr. R. V. Branch is pastor. A large number of delegates and visitors are expected, and Savannah folks will put on their best clothes and extend the generous hospitality for which they are noted to all who may attend this important convention of our professional advisers and prescribers to our physicalills. The local committee of arrangements is headed by Dr. W. A. Harris, president of the local medical association. The committee's program of social entertainment includes a boat ride, reception and several dinners to be given by individuals in honor of the physicians and their friends. The meeting on Tuesday evening, May 15, will be held in the First African Baptist church, of which Dr. T. J. Goodall is pastor. In the absence of President A. M. Miller, M. D., the convention will be presided over by the first vice president, Dr. N. W. Este of Hawkinsville, Ga. The association has in its membership a number of physicians who have rendered valuable services to the race for many years. Savannah will give the convention a warm welcome and extends to its members in advance the freedom of the city. Dr. R. H. Carter of Atlanta is secretary of the convention. The Advantage of Pulling Together DIVISION. HO-HO! HOW? WHEN? WOW! Conference Unity LET'S PULL TOGETHER Result TEAM WORK Division Never Again. SUCCESS! How many of us realize how much the other fellow can help us achieve what we are working for? 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 reasoning or logic could show any more clearly and definitely just what cooperation means. Let's all apply it to our own business this year and wait for results. NEGROES, STUDY THIS PICTURE. THEN ACT. The Star prints the above lesson in order to convince some of the most skeptical Negroes of Denver and Colorado, as well as elsewhere, what it will mean for ten millions of Negroes whose minds, hearts, objects, purposes, ambitions and work are doggedly 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 competition 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 community? A Negro 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 compelled to hire extra help. Suppose that in July, when the Prince Hall chapter of the O. E. S. meets in Colo- Rado Springs, that the women have exhibits and displays for their inspection, thoroughly showing that co-operative spirit. When the calves decided 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. THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF COLORED PEOPLE PROPOSES TO MAKE TEN MILLION AMERICANS PHYSICALLY FREE FROM PEONAGE, MENTALLY FREE FROM IGNORANCE, POLITICALLY FREE FROM DISFRANCHISEMENT AND SOCIALLY FREE FROM INSULT.
