RACE WOMAN SAVES BABY AT PERIL OF OWN LIFE. Rahway, N. J. —Mrs, Herbert Kinch, a colored woman, rescued from drowning Michael Stiso, the two and a half-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Michael Stiso, who are white neighbors of Mrs. Kinch. Mrs. Kinch saw the baby fall into the river and notwithstanding the fact that she has been under the doctor's care for three weeks. she plunged into the river and caught the baby who was by that time several feet from the shore and was being carried farther by the tide. The baby was uninjured. Leaves $100,000 to White Son. Baltimore, Md.,—The will of James L. Hitchens, wealthy furniture mover, which was contested has been settled in the Orphan's Court. The bulk of the estate said to be worth $100,000 goes to an adopted white son. The contest was instituted by a supposed widow (white) and the brothers of Hichens (colored.) Colored Man is Best Cook. St. Louis, Mo'-Alex Johnson of Webster Groves, gave a wonderful demonstration in cooking at the Soldan High School this week, and also appeared at the Railroad Y. M. C. A. This is the first time a Negro has been accorded such honors. Mr. Johnson's demonstrations are being given under the supervision of the Pure Food Board and he will have charge of all their cooking schools in the future. He appeared at the Pure Food Show in the Coliseum and will be at the Business Men's show June 12-28. Miss Jessie Covington of 2728 Walnut st. assisted Mr. Johnson in demonstrating. Negro Musician May Be Millionaire. P. G. Lowry was in Detroit with the Hagenback Circus and received the congratulations of the host of friends he has here among the musicians. Mr. Lowry, who is the premier cornet player of the race, is much elated over the recent news he received from his home in Kansas, where it is said oil has been "struck." Any kind or quality of oil is of greatest value and the famous band director is on the verge of becoming a millionaire. His extreme modesty forbids him making a statement of his present financial standing but it is a well-known fact that his reality holdings are of a very valuable nature. He cordially took E. B. Dudley and W. P. Kemp through his cars and give several very interesting bits of information. He stated that the circus made about $15,000 the first day in Detroit $18,000 the next. There are 700 peolpe, 500 horses and the daily expense is $5000 a day. The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 If lamenting Southern industry wants to know why the colored men of all classes and conditions are leaving the South wholesale, let them consult their leaders. The lie is point blank and venomous which says they thereby hope to avoid conscription. They, too, are wrong who say that the lure of higher wages North, is the largest contributing cause. Booker T. Washington, as Wm. J. Schieffelin pointed out in Sunday's Times was right when he declared it was because, for the most part, they do not think they can get a square deal in the South. From the heart of mob ridden Dixie this letter just received from a discouraged successful colored editor speaks volumes of truth: Conditions and the high state of prejudice has compelled the discontinuance of the Albany Era. We are facing conditions more serious than any man not in close touch with affairs can understand. The Southern colored man has handicaps which he cannot explain in public and remain in the South. There is no heart in the white South save money. The biggest war we can fight right now is to move more than half the colored population to other sections. This war is for the Negro to enlist in, this will give us a sane South. The whole industrial system of the South rests on Negro laborers, laborers who are robbed, cheated, murdered, lynched and despised. We must, while the time is opportune, move them to sections where they can get the best wages and the best educational advantages for the offspring. I have noticed that every unjust law is being enacted and every inhuman course to prevent their leaving the South. Wages are so low that they can barely get the necessities of life. The employers are paying no money, to prevent them from having money to pay their transportation to other sections. I have decided that I could add my bit in this war by locating in some Northern section and co-operating with some paper and firms, corporations and individuals who need labor. I know the South and know how to get the people if I only had the place for their employment. I would greatly appreciate your opinion on this subject and if favorable co-operation. It is certain that the biggest thing to be done just now is to remove the prop which has ruined the white South with bigotry and cursed the colored people. Those interested will find in this an expert authority on why the colored people are leaving the South. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JUNE 16, 1917 The Building of a Church St. Paul's Baptist Church Being Erected at Trinidad, Colo. by Rev. I. Harrison Wallace, Pastor. Former, Denver Pastor Makes Great Record. The St. Paul's Baptist Church had its birth in the year 1902 in a hall of a condemned building on Carbon Ave. A small band consisting of eight zealous workers met at this humble place of worship each Sunday, and altho few in number, God heard their songs of praise and their earnest prayers burdened with many sorrows and cares. Thus did this humble worship continue until 1905, then God sent his prophets, respectively Reverends Douglass Davis, Berry, Crutchfield, Henry, Brown, Franklin, and their present pastor, Rev. I Harrison Wallace. Reverends Douglass and Davis kept the faithful flock together until 1907, when during the administration of Rev. Berry, the View of Progress on Our New Church Building. church was organized by Rev. D. E. Over, Moderator of the work in Colorado, and now present pastor of the Zion Baptist in Denver. The organization took place at the home of brother Johnson Seymore on Church and Beech streets, with and increased number of eleven, and the present name St. Paul was given. Shortly after, they found a home for worship in a hall on East 1st street. Then came an ardent leader, Rev. Crutchfield. In 1910 Rev. Henry became the founder of the present site, 120 University. For nearly six years they worshipped in the basement under the administrations of Revs. Henry, Brown, Franklin, and Wallace. During the latter period of 1916 the walls were completed thru the magnificent and energetic efforts of Rev. J. W. Bell, general missionary tor Arizona and New Mexico. Rev. Bell has visited time and again in the time interest of this God-fearing flock. He laid the successful plans to raise finance to carry on the completion- and the members followed them zealously. Too much cannot be said, too high a compliment cannot be paid in the behalf of this grand and noble man, for the great good he has accomplished. His great fame has been disseminated throughout Arizona and New Mexico for his ability for such accomplishments. About four months ago God sent to them a man of great ability, with a strong and courageous heart, with a warm love towards his follow man and also the noble cause, whose untiring efforts towards the completion of this building has been greatly rewarded, Rev. I. H. Wallace. Since the assignment to this place, he has proved capable of being a christain leader, a true shepherd of a faithful flock. Courage is contagious, altho some persons are not at all liable to catch it, but we can plainly see that the present leader has spread the contagious epidemic among his followers and they have gently and patiently climbed this far, God will it that they might continue. As in (John 10-4-5) "And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice. And a stranger, will they not, follow, but will flee from him, for they know not the voice of strangers." He, as a shepherd, has led them thus far to success. A good cause makes a courageous heart, and a warm heart requires a cool head, this earnest leader has proved these things. He, like those before him, has put for every effort to bring the auxilaries of this church on an equal footing in the knowledge of the work with larger organizations. They now have their B. Y. P. U, Missionary Society: Bible class and Sewing Circles. This organization has not only been encouraged by its own race but by its sister race. As Isaiah says in the 40th chapter and 31st verse, "But they that wait upon the Lord, shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint." This little band has done as the great prophet said. They walked, and did not faint; they ran, and grew not weary, and now, after all the many obstacles that have been thrown before them as they toiled along the long and dusty road. After the many discouraging things that they have with stood and over-come, they struggled towards the light, the OUR OWN DENVER BOY GRADUATES. Dr. Thomas Virgil Ward, who has just graduated from the Dental Department of MeHarry Medical College, Nashville, Tenn. has enlisted in the United States Army as a Dental Surgeon. Dr. Ward is the second son of the Rev. A. M. Ward, pastor of Campbell Chapel African M. E. Church, Denver. He is a Denver boy and ma- Dr. Thomas Virgil Ward. triculated at Denver University. He completed the four years course at MeHarry and stood at the head of his class as its president. Until called to service by "Uncle Sam" he will hang out his Shingle in Topeka or Kansas City, Kansas, the state in which he was born. Negro To Medical Corps Los Angeles Calif.,—Dr. J. T. Whittaker was today ordered by the surgeon general at Washington, D. C. to go before the medical examining board for a commission in the medical reserve corps, U. S. A. Dr. Whittaker just recently came here from the Island of Cuba and formerly lived in Oklahoma City. He is a prominent race surgeon and is the only Negro in Los Angeles so highly honored. many dark clouds have blotted the light of hope from their eyes, to-day proves to us that they did not grow frightened and turnback, but pressed forward and God Almighty put refreshing streams of Mercy. Hope, Love and Faith beside the long and weary road. If they grew weary they remembered those tender words of Jesus saying, "Come unto Me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden; I will give you rest." They kept close to His side, and today we see them mounting upon the wings of success. Those who helped build this edifice, those who zealously strove to do good for the sake of good, can heartily say, how sweet 'twill be at evening, when you and I can say, "Good Shepherd, we've been seeking the lambs that went astray, heart-sore, and faint with hunger, we heard them making moan, and lo! we come at night fall, bearing them safely home." FIVE CENTS'A COPY. THE RACE AND THE ARMY. A year ago Congress voted to increase the regular army. It was generally expected that some recognition would be given the colored citizen. So far as the artillery arms of the service are concerned nothing was expected, because the black man has always been barred from the coast and field artillery. But when the number of infantry regiments was increased from 30 to 65, it was naturally expected that at least two or three of these 35 new regiments of infantry would be colored. The Act of Congress authorizing the increase of the regular army provided for the completion of the increases in five annual increments, but on account of our participation in the war the President has been authorized to organize all of the new regiments immediately. Not only the black soldier been ignored in the formation of these new regiments for the regular army, but word has come from Washing ton that our famous Secretary of War, Mr, Baker has gone on record against the formation of any additional colored regiments. At the present time there are only four colored regiments in the regular army—two of cavalry and two of infantry. We as a race have never had our proportionate share of representation in the army. The policy of the present Administration deliberately to ignore either race in the increases now au thorized will reduce our percentage of representation to a much lower point than ever The Administration, including our eminent Secy. of War has decided that in the present expansion of the regular army the black man is not worthy of consideration. As this conclusion has doubtless been influenced by the expert opinion of the great military strategist, like Hoke Smith and J. K. Vardamann, there is nothing for the layman to do but to bow to the masterful in tellects that stand out so prominently at Washington. Far be it from us to question their wisdom. All we wish to do is to suggest in a very meek and humble way that a few more colored regiments in our regular army might some day prove an asset to the nation, just as those al ready in the service have proved in the past.—N. Y. News. W. Scott Brown, one of the most prominent attorneys in Eastern Oklahoma, Hon. C. E. Corbett, president of the Oklahoma Negro Bar Association, Wm. H. Twine, Jr., of Muskogee and Atty. J. A. Bailey, of Boley, were all accepted in the officers reserve corps Saturday. Monday T. C. Byrd, of Langston, Herman Austin, of Lawrence, Prof. S. E. Williams, teacher of science, Muskogee, Wm. McDade, Muskogee, school instructor and Mr. Ispy of Muskogee also passed favorably the military examining board at Fort Sill. These patriotic race men will leave for Des Moines, Iowa and will enter training for officers of the Negro units to be created under the selective draft. It will be noted that some of the most representative Negroes in the state are numbered among these embryo officers. Church News CAMPBELL CHAPEL AFRICAN M. E. CHURCH, 23rd & LAWRENCE. A. M.

It is expected that every member of Zion will respond to duty that day with a sacrifice offering to the Lord. Without noise or con- fusion, let everyone quietly prepare and generously give. "The liberal soul shall be made fat; and he that water- eth shall be watered also himself." On July 9th, the Invincible Concert Company will be presented in Zion Church. This company of entertainers comes with the highest endorsement as one of the most entertaining organizations on the Chautauqua circuit. The fact that they are to be at Zion is sufficient endorsement for this community, which has learned that when Zion presents an entertainment or concert its merit is unquestioned. The company is composed of two blind men and a ventriloquist, with the wife and daughter of one of the former. These men are masters of almost every musical instrument they touch; while all are singers of rare and high quality. The company performs almost exclusive for white audiences; 25 and 35 cents is the admission fee. The Williams' Singers will be with us toward the close of summer. Don't forget the Pulpit Aid entertainment at the home of Sister C. M. Hughes, 2400 Humboldt, next Thursday night.

The boys of the Saturday morning Bible-story club had a great time last Saturday at their regular weekly meeting. Theodore Anderson, president of the club, was dropped from office for conduct unbecoming a member. His brother Stanley, a very manly little fellow, was elected to succeed him. After the lesson, which was about Abram and lot, the boys had a big watermelon feast. A hike to Manhattan Beach is planned for next Saturday. Boys are instructed to bring a lunch with them, as their lesson will be in the woods. They leave no later than eight-thirty. The program last Sunday afternoon was an interesting one. The boys acquitted themselves well, and the two young ladies who performed on the piano did splendidly. A pleasant feature of the meeting was the large number of mothers who were present to witness the performance of their boys. Mr. W. J. Covington of Indianapolis gave a splendid description of the colored businesses of that city, and the Rev. S. A. Stripling of Topeka spoke interestingly on "Some Negroes I Have Met in My Travels." Remember the horse and egg story. The program prepared for next Sunday afternoon will be a very brilliant one, especially the musical features of it. It will include a violin selection by Mr. M. T. Jackson of Jackson's orchestra, and vocal selections by Mrs. Lulu Madison and also by Mr. B. C. Allen, formerly of Buckner's Dixie Concert Company of Chicago. The address will be delivered by Rev. J. A. Thomas-Hazell of the People's Presbyterian Church. Ladies will be welcome. The meeting will begin at four o'clock. FIFTY YEARS IN BUSINESS. Year Book Shows Advance Made by Race Along Various Lines. The Negro Year Book, edited and published by Monroe N. Work, gives the following account of racial activities along various lines, using figures from the 1910 census report and other reports up to January, 1917. It says: When the census reports for 1910 were published it was found that in the ten years 1900-10 the Negro had made about as much progress as he had made in the previous thirty-five years. The first indication of the remarkable progress which the Negro had made in this decade was revealed when the returns for agriculture were made public. From these it was found that in these ten years the value of farm property owned by Negroes had increased from $177,404,688 to $492,892,218, or 177 per cent. In the field of business the number of Negro bankers increased from 4 to 50, restaurant keepers from 3,995 to 6,300, or 59 per cent; wholesale merchants from 149 to 241, or 61 per cent; retail merchants from 9,008 to 20,633, or 127 per cent; hotel keepers from 481 to 973, or 102 per cent; undertakers from 453 to 973, or 114 per cent. Excluding 10,600 boarding and lodging house keepers, there were in 1910 38,332 Negroes engaged in business enterprises. This did not include those operating barbering, blacksmithing and shoe shops or various classes of business connected with trades for which separate returns of proprietors were not made. Probably 5,000 more should be added for persons operating these businesses, making the total number of Negroes engaged in business in 1910 about 43,000. A survey of fifty years of Negro business enterprise shows that remarkable progress has been made. There were in 1867 Negroes in some forty different lines of businesses; they numbered about 4,000. The total capital which they had invested was probably not more than $1,000,000. In 1917 Negroes are in 200 lines of business. They number about 50,000. Baptists Holding Meeting In Boston. The New England Baptist missionary convention is holding its forty-second annual meeting at the Ebenezer Baptist church, Boston, from June 12 to 18, inclusive. The jurisdiction of the convention extends over the northern and New England states, the District of Columbia, Maryland and the eastern part of Virginia. The Rev. W. Bishop Johnson, LL. D., of Washington is the president and W. A. Harrod, Ph. D., of Philadelphia is the corresponding secretary. Missionary Societies Raise Big Sums. The Dorcas Home Missionary society of the Concord Baptist church in Brooklyn, of which Mrs. Alice W. Seay is president, raised $618 during the month of May for church and mission work. The Dorcas society of the First A. M. E. Zion church in the same city raised over $300 during the same period and for similar purposes. The above results are evidence of what our people can do in a given cause when they are thoroughly united. Trained Nurses Making Good in South. The colored young women nurses of the Atlanta (Ga.) hospital are showing their ability to the satisfaction of the officials in charge in a most decided manner. The authorites at the hospital recently complimented the colored nurses for their neatness and painstaking interest in the patients under their care.

CEREMONY CHARMS PUBLIC Marriage of Blanche Fletcher Powell to Clarence Doyle King, Young Divinity Student, on Saturday, June 2, at the Aybesinian Baptist Church, Witnessed by Over a Thousand People. B. N. BARNETT DODSON. New York.—Beneath a bower of palms and dogwood blossoms, offset by artificial trimmings on both sides of the altar, Blanche Fletcher, only daughter of the Rev. Dr. and Mrs. A. Clayton Powell, became the bride of Clarence Doyle King at the Abyssinian Baptist church in this city Saturday afternoon, June 2, at 3 o'clock. The marriage ceremony was performed by the bride's father, who was assisted by the Rev. William P. Hayes, pastor of the Mount Olivet Baptist church. Without begging the question or resorting to the use of superfluous adjectives the function in every detail recorded the last word in perfection on the social calendar. Previous to the entrance of the bridal party W. A. Merrit sang with fine effect "Oh, Promise Me," and Mrs. Stella Hawkins then began playing Mendelssohn's wedding march. Drs. Powell and Hayes entered the spacious auditorium first and were followed at good regulation distances by the ushers, bridesmaids, groom and best man, maid of honor, ring bearer, and then JOHN H. HARRIS MRS. CLARENCE DOYLE KING. came the bride, dressed in a beautiful gown of white satin, opalescent trimmings, tulle veil caught up with orange blossoms and leaning upon the arm of her father's nephew, Lawyer H. G. Tolliver of New Haven, Conn. The maid of honor was Miss Ethel Gardner, who wore a beautiful blue silk dress, opalescent trimmings and blue silk hat trimmed with forgetmenots. The bridesmaids and their costumes were: Miss Marie Haskin, New York, blue satin and lace and hat of same; Miss Beatrice Willis of Orange, Va., pink satin and lace, hat of pink satin and gold lace; Miss Evelyn Brown, New York, pink satin and opalescent trimming, hat to match; Miss Alma Thornton, Yonkers, N. Y., pink satin and georgette crape hat to match; Miss Marion Pugh, New Haven, blue taffeta and tulle blue hat to match; Miss Helen Wilson, Willimantic, Conn., blue taffeta and hat of blue velvet. The flower girl was little Miss Thelma Johnson; ring bearer, Master A. Clayton Powell; best man, Leroy Jennings of New Haven. The ushers were Washington Joiner, George Royal, George Jackson, Robert L. Whitehead, Jullus Smith and Garland Kennedy. The bride's wedding dress was expensive, a thing of beauty, and was made and given by a dear friend of the family. Mrs. Effe Miller. The wedding cake was all that the culinary art could produce and was the gift of Mrs. Thomas Jennings of New Haven, Conn. The bride also received $200 and numerous other gifts of much value. The members of the Abyssinian church did themselves proud in showing their pastor, Dr. Powell, and family every courtesy one could wish on such an occasion. Fully 1,000 people witnessed the marriage. Mrs. King is a graduate of the public school and was a student at the high school for three years before matriculating at Hartshorn Memorial college at Richmond, Va. Mrs. King also took a business course at one of the best schools in this city. The groom is a native of Virginia and a divinity student at the Virginia Union university, Richmond, Va. The happy young couple were at home to their friends at 240 West Fortieth street, New York, on Wednesday, June 6. The spontaneous outburst of the public in showing honor to the young couple, however, is not surprising when one considers the popularity of the Rev. Dr. Powell, who is known throughout the country as a great preacher, safe leader. Miss Spencer Finds 201 White and 66 Colored School Children Afflicted. New York.—The National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes has just completed an investigation of the record of school children in Harlem, New York city, afflicted with heart disease. This investigation, made with the approval of the acting superintendent of public schools, was made by Miss Naomi B. Spencer and covered all schools in the district, including private and parochial schools in which colored children are part of the school population. The purpose of the investigation was to find out how nearly perfect the records are kept and to ascertain whether these children are actually being referred to heart disease specialists for relief or cure. The name of every child whose case had been diagnosed as heart disease has been referred to the heart disease clinic of the Harlem hospital, which for children is open on Saturday mornings and in which any child whose parents are not able to provide expert care may receive treatment. The class for adults is held on Thursday evening. Miss Spencer visited seventeen schools and found a total in eleven schools where the records were seen of 267 cardiias or children afflicted with heart disease. Of this number sixty-six were colored. The investigator noted the general health of the children and recorded the following conditions among the children affected: Nasal breathing, defective vision, defective teeth, hypertrophied tonsils and malnutrition. Because of the attendant disorders, the committee on heart disease of the Urban league and Dr. Frederic Brush and Miss M. L. Woughter of the Association For the Prevention and Relief of Heart Disease thought that the colored people of New York city should know the danger of such conditions in their children, these defects probably being the forerunner of heart disease in childhood and adult life. In addition to the work of the cardiac clinic of the Harlem hospital for persons afflicted with heart disease, the Urban league and the social service department of the Harlem hospital have entered into an agreement by which employment may be found for cardiac cases less destructive to the health of the patient. For instance, care will be taken to give no cardiac work requiring him to climb stairs or to perform other laborious tasks which produce fatigue. During health week, recently conducted, Dr. Robert Halsey, heart disease specialist at the College of Physicians and Surgeons, addressed the members of the Manhattan Medical association at a banquet, the subject being "The Prevention and Relief of Heart Disease." WARNING TO STRANGERS. Newcomers Should Heed Advice of National Urban League. New York. In keeping with its progressive policy of thoroughness in every detail of its work for the protection of our people who continue to migrate from the south, the headquarters of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Colored People, at 2303 Seventh avenue, New York, has sent out some excellent advice and warning. The league says to all who contemplate going north or west: Be sure you are in communication with responsible people in the north or elsewhere before leaving home. You should know exactly where you are going and carry warm clothing with you, even during the summer. You are likely to get confused and lost in the great crowds at the piers and railroad stations in the large cities. If you are planning to come north you should have some trustworthy person meet you. You might have your pastor advise you. Bear in mind that you will receive many free offers of help from crooks, thieves, labor agents and other exploiters. Accept none of these, but ask any policeman or travelers' aid worker at the railroad station or steamboat dock to direct you to an office of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes or to one of its branches listed below. This organization has branches in many of the large cities and does practical work in helping colored people who have reached the north or west.

PETITION TO THE President and Congress FOR THE Independence of Ireland We, as American citizens, respectfully state to the Government of the United States that Ireland is a distinct nation, deprived of her liberty by force and held in subjection by England by military power alone. As America has entered the war for the preservation of democracy and the freedom of small nationalities, this Government is in honor bound to apply this principle impartially in all cases of people held in subjection, whether they be under the Jurisdiction of the United States or under the jurisdiction cannot be a party to any scheme of world peace which withholds from any nation the God-given right of freedom, the only final settlement must be the complete independence of Ireland. America has the right, by her entry into the war, to demand it from England, not in the Peace Conference at the close of the war, but We therefore respectfully urge upon the President and the Congress the necessity and good policy of giving a great example to the world by insisting that the English and Irish complete national independence. We earnestly hope that, like Cuba, Ireland will be made free by the action of America. NAME ADDRESS Every lover of Democracy, irrespective of sex, race and religion, is asked to sign this Petition.

The American Woodmen, the largest and strongest insurance society among the Negroes, whose offices are located here, will be here in August, and The Star sincerely trusts all of our business places will go to some expense and decorate for their coming. No better demonstration could be made than for the Negroes themselves to lead off in boosting, honoring and welcoming our many guests in such a gala manner. These men and women, and this occasion, will be just as big and representative as we ourselves make it. The fraternal insurance society will have its hands full working out details. There is a duty devolved upon each and every citizen, and each ought to play his or her part. After they have been invited here they are our guests and we should thus honor them. Not only them, but the coming Eastern Star and the National Federation of Women's Clubs. Get busy and let each home prepare to put out flags — American — while our business places will properly display bunting and the like. Like errant waves my thoughts do go And wander miles away from me, To reach a land upon whose shore They may at last come home to Thee. II To you they turn when, tired of strife, They crave and seek the boon of rest From al the many trials of life— From harsh decrees and fate's hard tests. III But still no craven thoughts are these, Nor do they play a coward's part; Refreshed and soothed by you they seize Their swords and with stout hearts depart. IV God grant that when the fight is o'er And reputation's bauble won, They turn again to your fair shore To rest till time itself is done. —Robertson. God give us men! A time like this demands Strong minds, great hearts, true faith and ready hands; Men whom the lust of office does not kill; Men whom the spoils of office cannot buy; Men who possess opinions and a will; Men who have honor—men who will not lie; Men who can stand before a demagogue And damn his treacherous flatteries without winking! Tall men, sun crowned, who live above the fog In public duty and in private thinking. God give us men. —J. G. Holland.

Rally Day at St. Paul's Baptist church has gone into history of one of the noble events of Trinidad. The day was ideal. The morning dedicatory service was all that could be desired. The sermon, by Rev. D. E Oyer, D.D., pastor of Zion Baptist church, Denver, was a masterpiece of pulpit eloquence, and a benediction to all who heard it, and gave full credit to the occasion. The 3 p. m. service was fully up to all anticipations, both in view of attendance and from the point of enthusiasm and inspiration. The work of the joint chorus of Grace A. M. E. Chapel and St. Paul's church was truly up to the standard. The five-minute addresses of the local ministers of Trinidad fully justified the thought and purpose of the program committee. The following persons responded to the request for speeches: Dr. E. O. Butler of the First Baptist church, Dr. D. E. Bundy of the Fourth M. E. church, Hon. A. E. McGlashan, attorney-at-law, Rev. W. M. Hawkins of Grace A. M. E. church. The evening service was very rich and rare, and was blessed with a helpful sermon by Rev. P. P. Mellon of East Las Vegas, N. M. The net gain for the day was $147.

TRINIDAD. LEADER IN MANY GOOD MOVEMENTS Success of Rev. Dr. W. H. Jernagin at Washington. MAN OF WIDE EXPERIENCE How the Mount Carmel Baptist Church is Prospering Under the Able Leadership of Its Energetic Pastor—All Departments Close the Fiscal Year With a Cash Balance. By N. BARNETT DODSON. It was Paul Laurence Dunbar who said, "To have achieved something for the betterment of his race rather than the aggrandizement of himself seems to be a man's best claim to be called representative and a leader." Few men have merited such distinction, and fewer still have lived to receive their just reward, for true genius is seldom rewarded in its day. Doubt, suspicion, prison and often death have been the fate of most men who have labored and done most for the betterment of mankind. But as the wind of time dispels the clouds of slavish tradition and custom their true worth shines forth as a beacon light and all men sing paeans of their greatness. The above applies to the efforts and achievements of the Rev. William H. Jernagin, D. D., pastor of the Mount Carmel Baptist church at Washington. In the most concrete manner. Before accepting the call of the above named church a few years ago Dr. Jernagin had won his spurs as a successful pastor and leader among our people in the far south and southwest. Dr. Jernagin is the moderator of the General Baptist Association of the Dis- A. B. REV. W. H. JERNAGIN, D. D. trict of Columbia and vicinity, treasurer of the national B. Y. P. U. board, one of the vice presidents of the national Baptist convention and chapain of the National Supreme Order of Helpers. He returned from Atlanta, Ga., on Tuesday, June 12, where he had been attending the Sunday school congress and the B. Y. P. U. convention, in which he took a leading part. As moderator of the General Baptist association he has succeeded in securing the hearty co-operation of the members in every important movement which has for its object the advancement of denominational interests in Washington. Because of his able advocacy of equal rights under the law for the colored people as citizens of the United States Dr. Jernagin was elected president of the national race congress which was held in Washington in October, 1916. He was leader of a recent delegation which conferred with the secretaries of the war and navy departments with reference to granting young colored men an opportunity to be trained for official rank in the new federal army. Under Dr. Jernagin's administration the Mount Carmel Baptist church has taken its place among the foremost churches in Washington. He has secured a new place of worship for his congregation, greatly increased the membership and has put the church in splendid financial condition. The annual report of the board of trustees shows receipts amounting to $8,492.22 with a balance to the credit of the church and its auxiliaries of $111.69. The increase in the membership during the year was 102. Since the report was made thirty-four candidates for baptism have been enrolled. The Sunday school, Missionary and Young People's union are in fine working condition, each showing a cash balance at the end of the year. From April 30 to May 11 Dr. Jernagin was associated with the Rev. Dr. R. C. Judkins, pastor of the Salen Baptist church, in Jersey City, N.

By the will of the late John A. Green of New York city Wilberforce university at Wilberforce, O., is beneficiary to the amount of $1,500. The estate consists in the main of real estate which may be sold to good advantage, as property values are constantly advancing. James A. Anderson, executor of the Green estate, has notified President W. S. Scarborough of Wilberforce university that as soon as settlement of the estate is made the amount above named will be forwarded to the university. This recognition of the beneficent work which Wilberforce is doing for higher education is a most worthy tribute to the institution and to Dr. Scarborough, whose administration of the affairs of the school has been efficient and thorough in all lines of literary and business management. The present school year has been noted for earnestness on the part of both students and faculty to get the very best results from class work, lectures and recreation. The commencement exercises begin on Sunday, June 17. Bishop Levi J. Coppin of Philadelphia, Professor Richard T. Greener of Chicago and Bishop Evans Tyre of Nashville, Tenn., are among those who will deliver addresses during the commencement season. The dedication of the Tawawa hospital for the use of students will occur on Thursday, June 21. the matter of supreme moment which will engage the attention of Dr. Scarborough during the summer will be the securing of sufficient funds to complete the amount necessary for the erection of a new science building which is so much needed. The increase in the enrollment of students from year to year calls for more room. President Scarborough has made many friends for the school, and the results of his efforts in its behalf grow larger as he makes known the success and needs of the institution to the general public. BIG BROTHERS' CONFERENCE Urban League Continues Work to Safeguard Young Lives. At the conference of Big Brothers recently held at the headquarters of the National Urban league, 2303 Seventh avenue, New York, a resolution was adopted requesting Police Commissioner Woods and Captain William H. Ward to detail Officer Samuel J. Battle as a crime prevention officer for the Thirty-eighth precinct as soon as convenient. Arrangements were also made for Big Brother co-operation in the cases of inmate and released boys from the Colored Orphan asylum at Riverdale, N. Y. The conference designated Messrs. J. C. Dancy, Jr., chairman; Richard C. Lockett, Julius A. Watson, Paul G. Prayer and William R. Dorsey, secretary, as a committee to solicit contributions and to send C. C. Allison, Jr., secretary of the Colored Big Brothers, to the first American Big Brother and Big Sister conference, to be held in Grand Rapids, Mich. May 28 and 29. The representative of this conference is the only colored delegate in the United States in attendance at the session. The Big Brothers voted to have conferences on the evenings of the second and fourth Thursdays in each month. Edward J. Henkel of the probation department, Manhattan children's court, was the speaker at the session held Thursday, May 24. Mr. Allison made his report on the conferences of correction and charities. Hampton Students Show Great Thrills. That members of the Hampton institute graduating class are alive to the economic, educational and social problems of the passing hour is shown by the questions which the boys have been debating in their English classes. Here are a few of the questions which they have discussed: "Negro Migration to the North Should Be Encouraged;" "Ignorance Is a Greater Menace to Civilization than Poverty;" "The Submarine Is More Effective In Modern Warfare Than the Dreadrought;" "Hampton Institute Is of More Value to the Negro Race Than Howard University;" "All Labor Disputes In the United States Should Be Settled by Arbitration." --- Compliments the Hampton Institute. Colonel Charles E. Hasbrook, editor in chief of the Richmond Times-Dispatch, has sent the following telegram to the "Greater Hampton Patriotic movement." Chicago: "Hampton institute in this time of national stress, in keeping with its long and honorable traditions, is taking splendid and efficient steps to develop its men and women into worthy and useful citizens. Its agricultural extension work and instruction in military tactics are its greatest measures of war preparedness." Howard University's Patriotic Spirit. Howard university has put at the disposal of the government a site for a training camp for soldiers. There are at least 25,000 colored men available for the army at short notice. One thousand colored men will be trained as officers if the war department carries out its idea of establishing a training camp according to plans already announced. The prevailing opinion in Washington on May 15 was that fully 25,000 colored men would be called at once under authority of the new conscription bill. 1011-21st St. EARNED Carpenter New and Repair W Ma For R an Ad ENJOY "STANLEY SERVE STEAMER to Look City Sight S Special Consideration STAND, RICE CHAS Residen EARNEST HOWARD carpenter and Contractor d Repair Work. . .

ZION BAPSTE ENCOURAGES THE GRADUATES ROYAL RECEPTION TUESDAY NIGHT. This year's graduates, with the exception of one, met in the study of Rev. Over, while the Junior Choir met in the assembly hall, and when a song was sung, filed out to their places in the choir station, followed by the processional of graduates, thirteen in all, who were given honor seats upon the rostrum. The audience went wild with applause. Speakers and addresses were made by Mrs. Over, Rev. McPherson and Rev. Over, while Miss Odessa McCullough represented the graduates. While "America" and other patriotic songs were sung the graduates lined up and the vast audience congratulated them, and especial thoughtfulness and kindness was shown by Mr. and Mrs. Paul W. Walker, who gave each a very beautiful as well as useful present. The processional, to the dining and refreshment rooms, where the graduates' table amid colored election lights interspersed among roses and a veritable flower garden in the center of the table, easily caught the eyes as a masterpiece of decoration. Place cards with American flags and each graduate's name there also added to the event as the various class colors hung loose and were profusely spread. These rare and exceptional decorations were due to the efforts of Mr. John Kigh. This event will ever remain as a sweet remembrance to each graduate, guest and the crowded church.

A record-breaking session of the Rocky Mountain District Conference and Convention was held at Cheyenne, Wyo., last week with a large and enthusiastic delegation representing the churches in Colorado, Utah, Nebraska and Wyoming. Reports rendered showed that the work is in a prosperous condition and an unprecedented interest in the study of the Bible was manifested on all sides. One of the new features of this gathering which proved to be a magnet was the sectional conference under directors who had made special preparation for their conduct. They were directed as follows: The division of Church polity, Rev. R. H. Harbert, Pueblo; the division of the Ritual, Rev. J. W. Braxton and the presiding elder; Sunday school superintendents' conference, G. C. King, Denver; Senior division, Rev. John Adams, Pueblo; Secondary division, Rev. A. Wayman Ward, Boulder; with Wm. Parks of Denver and Mrs. E. A. Vest, Pueblo, assisting; Elementary division, Mrs. Fannie Brown, assisted by Mrs. F. A. Early, Denver. Special attention was given to gospel singing, and in this respect this convention triumphed gloriously. One hundred copies of "Songs for Service" were purchased for the occasion and every session of the conference was flooded with inspiring music; so deeply did the music strike the delegation that number of the workers woke up in the night and found themselves singing the convention songs. Rev. John B. St. Felix Isaacs, Colorado Springs, director of this division, covered himself with glory by the masterly way in which he made his audience sing. Mrs. Lulu M. Gudgel, district superintendent, and Mrs. E. A. Vest, district president, A. C. E. League, gave good account of themselves and made substantial contributions to the success of the meeting. The annual address by the presiding elder, Rev. Robert L. Pope, dealt with some vital issues touching our religious development and strong resolutions were adopted commending the presiding elder and his assistants for the splendid way in which the Christian forces are being led to the highest and best things. Mrs. Lulu M. Gudgel of Colorado Springs was elected district superintendent of Sunday schools, Royal C. Brown, Denver, was elected president of A. C. E. League; Geo. C. King, Denver, secretary, and Miss Hazel McVey, Boulder, assistant secretary. Shorter Chapel took front rank by carrying to Cheyenne the following delegates: Messrs. G. C. Bing, Wm. Parks, R. C. Brown and Herbert Williams; Mesdames Fannie Brown, Effie Waldon, Mary E. Wade, Mae E. Byrd, F. A. Runner' at the morning service of Earley, Ethel Mallard, Minnie Elliott, Rebie I.

For the first time within the memory of the oldest inhabitants, two large shark appeared recently off the Grand hotel, Yokohama, and created a sensation. They did all manner of Annette Kellermann tricks of swimming for the entertainment of the hotel guests, who gathered upon the verandas and along the Bund. Several unsuccessful attempts were made to harpoon the big fish. Many shots were fired at the swimming monsters, but they did not appear to mind a .38-caliber bullet in the slightest degree. They finally proceeded up the bay toward Tokyo as far as the residence of the French consul on the Okawaga river, but finding shallow water, they returned to the harbor, dived and were not again seen. The Tokyo Yomiuri has another shark story describing the landing at Odawara of a dead member of that family, eighteen feet in length, and its subsequent exhibition at Asakusa. The fisher folk of Odawara have subscribed a small amount of money to erect a stone monument to this animal deity, which, they assert, was guardian of the fisheries off that coast for centuries. They are indignant that the great fish is put on exhibition for money and are raising the monument to propitiate the spirit so that it will not wreak a terrible vengeance upon the mercenary inhabitants of Odawara. Novel Cure for Stuttering. A novel cure for stuttering was suggested by Dr. J. Herbert Claiborne of New York at a recent meeting of the Medical Association of the Greater City of New York and reported in the New York Medical Journal. This is to reverse the manual dexterity; in other words, to educate a left-handed child to use his right hand and to turn a right-handed child into a left-handed one. Doctor Claiborne cited one case in which stuttering associated with left-handedness had been cured by changing the left-handedness into right-handedness and drilling the voice at the same time. He cited another case in which it had been relieved for two or three years by simply changing left-handedness into right-handedness, without accompanying vocal exercises. Birds Safeguard Against Famine. Birds Safeguard Against Famine. The world war must soon result in a shortage of labor and chemicals used in the preparation of insecticides, hence the importance of sparing bird life, as defenders of crops from insect enemies, becomes a measure of elemental preparedness against Famine, to say nothing of the sentimental aspect involved. The United States agricultural department reports show that the damage now done by insects amounts to more than $1,000,000,000 a year. The destruction of our insect-eating birds would speedily result in nation-wide famine. We need the birds for that reason if for no other.—Exchange. Weather Reports From Sea. The United States weather bureau in co-operation with the bureau of lighthouses, department of commerce, has equipped a number of lightships with apparatus for recording weather conditions. These observations are then reported by wireless and are of service to the bureau in its preparation of storm and other warnings to ships at sea. MIGHT GET TWO EXTRA HOURS Advocates of Daylight Saving Could Do It by Setting Alarms Ahead as Well as Clocks. One good thing about compensations is that they are always ready to change to suit circumstances. That is, of course, what compensations are for. We have, therefore, no sooner made up our minds that we shall have to stay at home with our back-yard gardens this summer than we are confronted by the suggestion that our clocks may be set ahead in order to give us an extra hour in the garden every evening, says a writer in the Indianapolis News. It is easy enough to understand that an hour in the garden every evening is worth many a day at a summer resort. There is, to be sure, the difficulty of getting up an hour earlier every morning, but it would not really seem an hour earlier. Most of us do not like getting up in the morning, no matter what time it is, and an hour or so makes no noticeable difference at that time of day. As far as all that is concerned there may be some difference of opinion as to whether the clocks should be set ahead in order to give us that hour in the evening or whether the alarms on our clocks should be set ahead in order to give us the extra hour in the morning. It looks on the face of it as though it might be possible to get two extra hours out of our days. Prophetic. Sir Hubert Herkomer, the well-known artist, used to tell an amusing story of a London art dealer. This man had two beautiful reproductions of the painting "The Appraching Storm." One of these pictures he placed in the show window, but it did not sell. At length, in order to draw attention to the picture, he put a card on it on which he printed the words, "The Approaching Storm, especially suitable for a wedding present." Revivifying Effect of the St. Paul Normal School. OPTIMISM THE WATCHWORD Living Conditions In Lawrenceville Improved by Contact With Progressive Virginia Institution—Home Life Elevated and the Material Welfare of the People Advanced. BY WILLIAM ANTHONY AERY. Lawrenceville, Va.-The recent commencement of the St. Paul Normal and Industrial school in this town, of which Archdeacon James S. Russell is the principal, included a baccalaureate sermon by the Rev. John T. Ogburn, Youngstown, O.; special Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. program, confirmation and close of literary societies, oratorical contest, parish school entertainment, "Crowning the May Queen;" class day exercises, commencement program, including student addresses on "Discipline of Life and Character," "Bonding," "Vocational Training a Necessity," "The Model Tailor Shop" and "Advantages of an Education," and an alumni reunion. Bishop B, D. Tucker of Lynchburg Va., vice president of the board of trustees, awarded diplomas to sixteen seniors and certificates to three in blacksmithing, two in carpentry, seven in dressmaking, one in engineering, one in harness making, two in masonry and five in tailoring. Two graduates—Mrs. Sarah E. Wilkins, '94, and Rev. John T. Ogburn, '04—told the story of St. Paul's influence for good on their lives. Both expressed warm appreciation of the life and work of Archdeacon Russell. Robert B. Tunstall, a white lawyer of Norfolk, who is a St. Paul trustee, spoke on "The Idea of Self Respect." His parting words were, "Go out with the determination to do with all your might whatever you find you can do." Charles G. Maphis, professor of secondary education in the University of Virginia, declared that "St. Paul school is fulfilling the modern conception of a twentieth century education." Dr. Maphis discussed the questions which are now being put to men: "What do you know? What can you do? What kind of character have you?" To the St. Paul commencement, which was held out of doors in the evening, there came from far and near many friends of Archdeacon Russell, including many leading white men and women. Through a long but interesting program some 1,500 men, women and children listened with attention and enthusiasm to the helpful addresses. There was on every hand the demonstration of racial good will. Not a single note of pessimism was heard. Everybody was ready and willing to re-dedicate life anew to the service of God and country. The industrial exhibit was attractively arranged and showed that the Negroes of Brunswick county, Va., are alive to the possibilities of securing from Mother Earth an abundant share of fruits and vegetables and staples, such as wheat, corn, rye and oats. The well made garments and nicely cooked foods were the finest proofs that St. Paul school believes in helping girls to become good homemakers. The boys have their opportunity too. Fine specimens of work in wood, iron and leather, together with good coats, vests and trousers, demonstrated the value of helping boys to use their hands with skill. Principal Russell in his annual report to the trustees of the school in part said: "The past year, which closes the twenty-ninth year of the school, has been one of progress and advancement despite the disturbing conditions created by the world war and the rise in price of commodities and supplies of all kinds. It has been hard work to keep things going this year; but, thanks be to him who has been our help and strong tower and the loyalty of the school's friends, the school has been enabled to pull through. Looking back through years—years of toll, privation, sacrifice and work, yet full of the joy of service and endeavor for God and humanity—we cannot but return thanks to him who has brought us thus far. "Twenty-nine years have witnessed great-in fact, revolutionary-changes in the people whom the school serves. Living conditions have improved, concepts of religion purified, home life has been elevated, illiteracy reduced, material prosperity advanced and a marked change from tenancy to ownership. The policy of the school from its inception has been one of preparedness. A Christian training, coupled with a good practical English education and a trade of some kind, is the life preparation that the school insists that each boy or girl who comes to it shall have in order to enable them to return to their communities and become good citizens and useful members of society. "Scattered through more than a score of states of the Union, in our insular possessions, Haiti and even far off Africa, our students are holding up the banner of St. Paul's and endeavoring by lives of service and sacrifice to carry out and exemplify in their own communities the teachings and principles they have learned at St. Paul's. Through them the school is doing its 'bit' in the elevation and Christian training of the Negro race."

The Star knows in no better way for lodges to do their "bit" in this war than for them now to arrange themselves into a kind of a co-operative body that the less fortunate brothers and sisters can and will be taken proper care of when the real famine comes this winter. Our oaths and obligations compel us to look after the widows, orphans and unfortunate members. What better aid, help, support or succor can we give them than by us now looking out for these then or probably ourselves? The churches could likewise form some co-operative union whereby the poor and distressed members who had liberally contributed once to the church, but, for some reasons were either too poor, too sick or were unable to do so now, could be given proper foods by a little forethought, wise business dealings and expert management.

Pierce Shews Results Obtained Through the Co-operation of Farm Demonstration Agents Under the States Relation Services Great Interest Taken in Corn Clubs. BY WILLIAM ANTHONY AERY. Some 5,000 farmers of Virginia, under the leadership of John B. Pierce, who is a Tuskegee-Hampton product, were influenced in the single calendar year of 1916 to improve their methods of work and secure crop yields far beyond the expectations of the most hopeful advocates of the farm demonstration idea. Eighteen local farm demonstration agents working in twenty-two counties of Virginia under the States Relations Service South—the fruition itself of the epoch making work of Seaman A. Knapp—have brought to the Negro farmers not only new ideas and better methods of tilling the soil and caring for farm products, but also a new vision of farm life, a clearer insight into farming as a business rather than as a mere occupation and a deeper sense of responsibility for the all around education of their boys and girls. Let facts tell the story of organization's gift to Virginia, for whatever helps the Negro farmer to increase his earning power also helps the white people to make genuine progress. During 1916, so Mr. Pierce reports to Bradford Knapp, chief of the States Relations Service, South, 449 Negro corn demonstrators in Virginia, cultivating 2,150 acres under improved methods, secured an average yield of thirty-three bushels per acre. This was an increased yield of 9.9 bushels on demonstration plots over plots cultivated by ordinary methods. In addition, 1,001 co-operators reported a yield of twenty-four bushels per acre on 1,052 acres. Granting that a similar result could be obtained by all those who raise corn if only education could be carried on broadly, Virginia in a single year would add $10,000,000 to the value of her output of corn. Who dares to be skeptical or cynical of the Negroes' interest in better methods of farming in the light of these facts? Corresponding results have been secured in the small grains demonstrations. The average yield of oats per acre on demonstration plots was 18.9 bushels, representing an increased yield of 5.7 bushels and of wheat 16.1 bushels, representing an increased yield of 5.5 bushels. Today over 1,000 Negro farmers are using better methods of growing small grains on account of the government's interest in them. Does all this pay in dollars and cents, in increased interest in farming, in better homes? To ask the question is to answer it—certainly! Hay, forage, cover crops! These words commonly mean little. To the Negro farmer of Virginia they now spell success on the land. The local demonstration agents have worked night and day to make farmers understand the importance of making the land produce (without wearing it out) more food for man and beast and this story of awakening life on the farm. "Community development along all good lines!" This is the object of the 134 Negro farmers' clubs which were organized in 1916 throughout Virginia through the co-operation of John B. Plerce and sixteen local demonstration agents working under the States Relations Service and the extension division of the Virginia Polytechnic institute at Blacksburg. The total membership of the clubs was 1,838 and represented a progressive, farsighted group of farmers in the Old Dominion. These clubs made a good beginning in co-operation by buying 2,234 tons of lime. Five of the local agents also kept a bulletin board, listing goods for sale and goods wanted. What do the local demonstration agents do besides helping the farmers till their land and grow better crops? Here is a partial list, based on Mr. Pierce's 1016 report of the farm and farmstead improvements which the farmers of Virginia have made with the advice and assistance of the agents: Buildings erected, 130; farm buildings painted or whitewashed, 552; sanitary conditions (farm and home) improved, 983; homes screened against tiles, 837; farmers furnished with plans and induced to adopt a systematic rotation, 156; total acreage put under rotation, 1,695; drainage system established, 39; home water systems installed or improved, 55; home grounds improved, 394; home gardens planted or improved, 1,198; farmers induced to save surplus farm products for winter use, 1,578. Can there be any question that the work of the local agent is limited merely to helping the farmer grow more crops so that he can secure more money to raise more crops? We think not. That increased earning power is an important and basal factor must be evident to the careful observer of rural conditions. That better living is a worthy goal for the hardworking farmer and his family is recognized by those who are engaged in carrying to the Negro farmers of Virginia a gospel of hope which is based upon intelligent work and Christian good will.

Judkins' Achievements In Virginia and Alabama. Jersey City, N. J.—The Baptist denomination in this state has been greatly strengthened by having in its midst the Rev. Robert Chapman Judkins. D. D., who is the pastor of the Salem Baptist church in this city. Dr. Judkins is a native of Montgomery county, Ala. He was reared on a farm and received the rudiments of his education in the public school of his native home. Being of a bright turn of mind he advanced rapidly in his studies. He was converted and joined the church A. E. RV. R. C. JUDKINS, D. D. when but a boy. He was always interested in church and Sunday school work and while in his teens felt that he was called to the ministry. He received further training in Alabama and afterward entered the Virginia Union university at Richmond, Va., where he completed the full course in theology. He was especially careful as a student in Greek and Hebrew. After graduation he was called to the Shiloh Baptist church at Fredericksburg, Va., where he was ordained by the Rev. Dr. W. F. Graham and other distinguished ministers of Virginia. He served this church for one year with great success. His next call was to the Dexter Avenue Baptist church at Montgomery, Ala. Here he labored for eleven years. From a small congregation in the beginning he built it up to one of the largest and most thrifty churches in the state. The church edifice was thoroughly renovated, the membership increased and a new pipe organ installed. Besides his work as a minister, Dr Judkins distinguished himself in educational work and as an editor for nine years of the Colored Alabamian. His editorials were very thoughtful, dealing, as they did, with the struggles and achievements of our people in the states. Leading editors commented freely on his work in this capacity. He also served on the lecture course of the Bible school at Tuskegee institute for several years, giving great satisfaction. When the Salem Baptist church in this city was in need of a pastor Dr. Judkins was invited to take charge of the work. After giving this call full consideration he decided to comply with the wishes of the people, and in August, 1916, he began his ministry here. When he took charge of the church he found the membership greatly diminished and the church heavily in debt. He called the people together and laid before them his plans for reducing the debt and building up the congregation. Within a few months the church began to take on new life. During his eight months he has added 100 members to the roll and reduced the debt by nearly $2,000, besides meeting all current expenses. From April 30 to May 11 Dr. Judkins conducted a spring revival. He had associated with him for these special meetings the Rev. Dr. W. H. Jernagin, pastor of the Mount Carmel Baptist church, Washington. As a result of this series of meetings more than forty persons were added to the church. The people are giving Dr. Judkins splendid co-operation and are working zealously to free the property of debt. The pastor and two delegates are attending the New England Baptist convention, which is being held at the Ebenezer Baptist church, Boston, from June 12 to 18, inclusive. Physicians Will Not Meet at Memphis On account of the recent brutal lynching of one Levi Jenkins near Memphis, Tenn., the National Medical association will not hold its annual meeting in Memphis in August as previously announced. The date and place of meeting will be given by the secretary, Dr. W. G. Alexander of Orange, N. J., as soon as convenient. Sticking to the Farms In Florida. The colored people of Florida are sticking to the farm in a most decided way. According to a recent report, which makes allowance for those who have forsaken their farms to seek a livelihood in the north or west, there are at the present time 14,638 farms owned and cultivated by our race. STANDS FOR EQUAL JUSTICE Editor of Cleveland Gazette Speaks His Mind In Editorial. The following editorial from the Cleveland (O.) Gazette, Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor, was republished in the Columbus (O.) State Journal, daily, April 30, and in the Cleveland (O.) Leader, daily, May 7, 1917, and has caused considerable comment. It is said the Cinchnati (O.) Times-Star also published the same. The Times-Star is owned by the Hon. Charles P. Taft, a brother of former President William H. Taft. The editorial, under the caption "Connotation and the Nerre" reads thus: scription and the Negro," reads thus: When the army reorganization bill was pending in congress more than a year ago prominent and patriotic Afro-Americans at Washington appeared before the military committee of each branch of our national legislature and persistently sought provision in the bill for at least four more Afro-American regiments (two infantry, one cavalry and one coast artillery) for the regular army. They were not only refused what they asked, but certain members of the congress from the south took care to say in open session of that august body that if they had their way there would be no Afro-American regiments in the army; they would get rid of those now in the army (four regiments, among the very best). These now have their full complement of men. Therefore there can be no more enlistment of Afro-Americans (except former soldiers) for the regular army until there is the legislation by the congress it refused when the army reorganization bill was pending. When the "white" regiments are all full—have their complement of men—other "white" regiments will be organized until the 500,000 men the president desires are in the regular army. Our southern Democratic controlled government (and congress) simply had to refuse to provide for additional Afro-American regiments for the regular army in order to make it impossible for an Afro-American to enlist in the regular army. AFRICA'S MINERAL WEALTH. "Dark" Continent Contains Great Part of World's Population. Facts about Africa show that nearly one-fourth of the earth's land surface is comprised within that continent. It is as far around the coast of Africa as it is around the world. Every eighth person of the world's population lives in the dark continent. The blacks double their numbers every forty years and the whites every eighty years. There are $43 languages and dialects in use among the blacks of Africa. Only a few of the languages have been reduced to writing, says the World Outlook. The coal fields of Africa aggregate 800,000 square miles; its copper fields equal those of North America and Europe combined, and it has undeveloped ore amounting to five times that of North America. Africa has 40,000 miles of river and lake navigation and water powers aggregating ninety times those of Niagara falls. One area in Africa unoccupied by missionaries is three times the size of New England, a second would make four states like New York, a third would cover eight Iowa, and a fourth is eighteen times the size of Ohio Throughout Africa there is one missionary for every 133,000 souls. Almost the entire continent is now under European flags. France has a colony in Africa twenty times the size of France itself. The British flag flies over a territory as large as the United States.
