The papers formerly known as The Statesman and The Independent, have been merged into The Denver Star "Prof. Geo. W. Carver of Tuskegee Institute in Alabama recently sent us samples of dried sweet potatoes, the first we have ever seen. They came in excellent condition, and our people pronounced them quite equal to the fresh product when cooked. It was only necessary to soak them for a short time, and then cook in the ordinary way. These potatoes came in such excellent condition, and were so near to the fresh product, that it seems as if this preparation of the sweets ought to become a great industry. It is possible to produce more food from an acre of sweet potatoes than can be produced from any other crop growing in this country, and the very nature of the sweet is such that unless stored carefully it is short-willfind it possible to develop a great business in drying and selling sweet potatoes." Colored Food Expert in Consultation at Washington Tuskegee Inst., Feb. 2 Prof. George W. Carver, Director of Tuskegee Experiment Station, has just returned from Washington, D.C. where he went at the invitation of the Department of Agriculture, to demonstrate the sweet potato products which he has been experimenting with successfully during the past year. Professor Carver reports that his meeting in Washington was most encouraging and states that it is the purpose of the government to make future experiments with the sweet potato to ascertain how some of the Eighty-eight products which he has worked out may be used in connection with the nation's war program of food economy. Concerning the dried sweet potato, one of the products which Professor Carver has been experimenting with. The Rural New-Yorker says: RAGE BOAST A GREAT SCULPTOR The foremost sculptor of the Negro race in America at the present time is Meta Vaux Warrick Fuller. Her work may be said to fall into two divisions—the romantic and the social. The first is represented by such things as 'The Wretched' and "Secret Sorrow," the second by "Immigrant in America" and "The Silent Appeal." The transition may be seen in "Watching for Dawn," a group that shows seven figures in various attitudes of prayer, watchfulness, and resignation, watching for the coming of daylight or coming peace. In technic this is like "The Wretched;" in spirit it is like the latter work. It is as if the sculptor's own seer, John the Baptist, had summoned her away from the romantic and es- The THE RAILROAD SITUATION The taking over of the railroads by the United States government is an event of first importance to colored Americans. Not only does it mark the ending of a system of private profit, based upon so general and standardized a necessity as travel, but it goes further than that. With the proper administration in Washington, it means the end of the "Jim Crow "car, for with the government as owner what state can prescribe conditions of travel? Moreover, the railway unions have absolutely excluded colored men. Only white men can belong to the conductor's union, the engineer's union, the switchmen's union, the firemen's union, etc. If the government continues to hold the railways after the war, and this is more than probable, these union men will become civil servants. Any person passing the requisite examination, be he white or black, can enter this service, and he cannot be excluded from the unions. It is, therefore, the business of every black voter to see that the railways of the United States never revert again to private hands; and then use his growing political power in the North to oust the southern oligarchy from its entrenched power in Washington. The February Crisis. NEW ARMY DIVISION Organization of a second division of the National Army is well under way. Surplus units of men from both the National Guard and the first and second drafts will be used in forming the new division, which will be designated the 93d division. Already plans have been formulated to bring two infantry brigades into it. The announcement of this plan gives encouragement to the men who are now receiving training in the various army camps, who no doubt will be called upon to handle the recruits who come under this division. oteric to the every day problems of speedy humanity lived. Some one in the South There are many, however who hope that ishe will not utterly forsake the field in which she first became famous Her early work is not terrible but it is also intense and vital and from it speaks the very tragedy of the Negro race—Benjamin Brawly in the Southern Workman DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, FEB. 9, 1918 After this nation had called upon a specified section of its citizenship to register for active war service and after the particular class of this section seemed for a time, to have been ignored in the various branches of the army service; it seemed that now that the Negro on the battle line will con tribute one element of his strength. The curse of the Negro in registering and answering to the calls of the needs of the military service has been highly commendable. Upon barren soil nave fallen all attempts to plant the 'seed of sedition, insurrection and mob violence coupled with strikes so carefully and adroitly dissemeninated by German agents and pro-Germans newspapers in an attempt to incite the Negroes to uprising against the United States. So far, no Negro leader has uttered any treasonable utterance. Drafted Negroes have gone forth to the front with a song on their lips, a smile on their faces and a kind feeling in their hearts toward their countrymen. Their cheerfulness and bravery in time of peril will cope with the German bullets and cages Inspired by true patriotism and world's democracy, the Negro raw recruit from Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee and South Carolina will not return from France the same, after having been prepared and tanght here how to fight and cooperate in great numbers to attain a given object. The Alabama and Tennessee's democracy and justice will not be the same as the French and English justice or the world's democracy. He might be compelled to put up the same strong fight for justice and democracy on this side of the waters. We include with the editorial "Will Justice be done? Will Justice Be Done? It is pretty generally acknowledged that on the whole the Negroes of the United States have responded more universally and cheerfully to the call of the government than the white men. When called under the selective draft they have rarely asked for exemptions, and the word comes from the training camps that they are making excellent progress as soldiers. What is the government going to do for these men when the war is over? What course is to be taken toward the race as a whole? Are the Negroes of this country still to be discriminated against in every possible way as they as thep have been discriminated against in the past? Are they still to be deprived of their rights supposed to be guaranteed them under the constitution? Are they to be mobed on the slightest provocation and deprived of the protection of the law? Are they to be robbed of their labor and kept in a condition of peonage as they have been in many parts of the United States. The obligations of the government to the citizens and of the citizen to the government are to reciprocal. The citizen is under obligations to defend his government only so long as that government affords him and his protection a nd just so far as that is possible. If the government fails to give to the ten million Negroes in this country the same protection it gives to all other citizens the obligation of loyalty on the part of these citizens ceases. The treatment of the Negro race by the whites of this country makes one the most shameful pages in our history. And now several hundred thousand of the young Negroes are being called to the colors. They are asked to go to the training camps, to risk their lives in defense of the government which has never afforded them the protection and the civil and political rights to which they were entitled. They are going uncomplainingly and willingiy and all they ask is fair treatment under the law. Will they get it? I should like to be able to say yes, without hesitation, but my confidence in the fairness and justice of the white people of this country is not quite so strong and abiding as it used to be. We also wonder if America can now act the laggard in the prosecution of Africa's claim for true democracy. Africa is the most wronged and most repressed and depressed nation upon the face of the globe today. If America means business in the asserting true and practicable democracy, then she certainly should stick by all nations and not those who happened to be a certain racial stock, or color. True democracy knows neither race nor color. O. America, remember the beginning and look well to thy destiny! Your future for the world and for God is in your hand, whither shall you turn to allow the nations of the bottom to ascend to the top. Mark well your course. When Bismarck took away Alsace-Lorraine, he told the French, in derision, to seek commensation in Africa. This was voicing not only contempt for the French, but also contempt for Africa and the Africans. However, France followed Bismark's advice, sought compensation in Africa, and fouled it. Out of Africa today are pouring hundreds of thousands of black fighters loyal defenders of France, who are striking terror to the heart of the hun. Out of Africa are pouring supplies to suc cor the people of France in their fierce contest with Germany. The first troops to pierce the supposedly impregnable German line were African. Among the most valiant and dependable of the valiant French troops are those from Africa. The restoration of Alsace Lorrine will be accomplished through the valor of African troops and the supplies that Africa affords. Bismark's advice to France though given in contempt, has proven advantageous to her, for Africa is not only compedsating France for the loss of Alsace Lorrine, but is destined to play an important part in this great world war. This is a world war, not merely a European war, In it Africa has her place and that an honorable and important one. "Seek your compensation for Alsace Lorraine in Africa." This was Bismark's polite way of telling France to go to—the hot place. But Bismark's geographical knowledge was not accurate. Tradition has it that it was in that direction where the Garden of Eden lay. Be that as it may, Africa has proven a paradise for France, and the world may yet learn that Africa is the most favored of the continents.—Omaha Monitor Colored Congressman The ratio of congressional apportionment in the United States is the one representative to every 211,877 inhabitants. American Negroes, under ony just system of proportional representation, ought to have in the Ssxty-fifth Congress at least fifty six representatives to defend the country not only against alien enemies, but against the Bourbon South! We have not a single congressman, thanks to oligar chy and mob violence in the South and gerrymandering in the North. With the recent migration however, careful and unselfish political leadership can soon send black men to Congress from New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Illinois. With five representatives from such states we could then attack the rotten democracies in state historian & Nat-ural History Society FIVE CENTS A COPY. (Atlanta, (Ga.)

The Douglass Home The February Crisis says: The homestead of Fredrick Douglass in Anacoste, D. C., has been redeemed. In less than one year the President of the National Association of Colored Woman, Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, has been enabled to sign the check wiping out every dollar of ineebtedness on "Cedar Hill". At the last biennial held in Baltimore when the National Association proposee to redeem and restore Cedar Hill, it was thought impossible but the impossible: bnt the impossible has been done, and done by Negroes Not a dollar has come from white people Eventually, the National Association of Colored Woman will restore it to its original beauty, and the spot, long grown over with tweeds and briars, will be a mecca for travellers to the capitol city.

CANT GET AWAY FROM IT One Idea in Mind of German War Lords as in That of Colored =, Minister. “The kaiser and Hindenburg, and the crown prince and the other Ger- man big-wigs can never mention the war without saying that it was forced upon them, that they are fighting in defense of the fatherland, that their enemies are to blame for all the bloodshed, and so forth.” Tne speaker was Edsell Ford, son of Henry Ford. “The way the Germans insist on this defense talk of theirs, in season and out of season,” he went on, “re- minds me of the colored preacher who always preached on infant bap- tism. “A deputation waited on him one evening and asked him if he weuldn’t please drop infant baptism for a time. He said he'd try to meet the deputation’s wishes. and the follow- ing Sunday he announced as his tert, ‘Adam, Where Art Thou?” “This text, brethren and sistern,’ said the preacher, ‘can be divided into fo’ heads. Fust, every man is somewhar. Second, most men is whar they hain’t got no business to be. Third, you'd better watch out or that’s whar you'll be yourself. Fo'th, infant baptism. And now, brethren and sistern, I guess we might as well pass up the first three heads and come immediately to the fo'th—infant baptism. ” LAUGH AT PERILS OF AIR Men of the Flying Squadrons Have Their Own Way of Describing the Day's Doings. The unquenchable youth and vi- tality of our airmen, says a writer in the London Globe, is reflected in the slang which they invent with regard to their work. It is well known that, on the Iucus a non lucendo principle, they call a flying machine a bus, and it appears that they call acting as pilots for cadets who are learning to fly taxicab driving for young Huns, although it includes trailing a tar- get on a wire about twenty yards long for the novices tv shoot at. “They miss the target some- times and get us; had half-a- dozen ventilations in the tail of my old bus one day last week,” lightly said a young officer. “It’s all in the day's work, but when you've heard Archie barking the pop- pop-pop of a Hun at practice doesn’t put the wind up. The chances are a million to one against your being killed even by a nervous young Hun. ‘The real strain is the monotony of waiting for them to come up. So in the air, when they are at what a foot- slogging soldier knows as “stand easy,” it is the general habit to read anovel. “If it isa clear sky and not too bumpy the old bus nearly man- ages itself. Risky? Lord, no, that’s why we call it taxi-driving.” FED ZOO ANIMALS TO HUNS. All the beasts, numbering thou- sands, formerly in the vast supply zo0 of the Hagenbeck Brothers, at Hamburg, Germany, have been butchered and fed to the kaiser’s sol- diers. The zoo’s daily feed bill wae enormous, so instead of feeding the animals, the government decided it was better to feed the animals to the soldiers. This is the story @. W. Meredith of Los Angeles, Cal., brings home with him from Germany. The collection included liqns, tigers, jag- uars, leopards, the rhinoceros and hippopotamms—specimens of almost every jungle beast and reptile. GETTING ALONG NICELY. My small niece, Ethel, frequently “says quite a mouthful.” She and the little girl next door were pretty apt to quarrel. The other evening her grandmother asked her®how she and Dora were getting along, and was rather surprised at her answer, which was: “Fine; we don’t speak.” —Chicago Tribune.

Ifa bomb be dropped from an aire plane 10,000 feet up, and traveling at a speed of 100 miles an hour, it reaches the ground a considerable distance ahead of the point at which it was released, and the difficulty of judging how to hit a particular building must be enormous: A ma- chine invented to assist the raiders has been found on a captured Ger- man Gotha. The main feature is a telescope hung ou gimbals and pointing through the floor of the bomber’s compartment. In connection with this is a form of spirit-level which brings a bubble into the center of a glass disk when the telescope is ver- tical, so that the bomber knows when it is in the position that can be trusted. Below the telescope is a prism, so that the image seen is not an object directly underneath, but at any desired distance ahead, accord- ing to the angle at which it is set. For instance, if the airplane is 10,- 000 feet up, and the speed is such that the bomb must be released half amile from the object, the prism has to be set at an angle of 15 degrees. Even then the calculation is liable to error, because the density of dif- ferent layers of air may vary, and, of course, any deflection of the airplane from the straight line to the object throws the calculation out.

It shows that a dead man’s plan realized a fortune ‘from nothing after his body was at ‘the bottom of the sea. George Ley Peace Butler, a professional musi- cian, known on the stage as George Vernon, went down with the Lusi- tania, His will, filed in New York, was found to provide for the dispo- sition among relatives of the sum of $103,588. Upon investigation, how- ver, it was found that the large sum hus formally devised comprised only he prospective profits from a con- ract which the testator had to fur- nish rifles to the Russian govern- ment. His actual estate was exact- ly S47. After Butlers death, his wifey alone and impoverished, com- mitted suicide. Butler's executor, however, continued the negotiations about the rifle contract and finally brought the whole thing to a success- ful conclusion. Just as Butler had calculated, when making his will, a profit of 45 cents on each rifle was realized, the total profit being the exact sum he had devised. ‘Phe post- mortem fortune was divided among Butler’s mother, his two brothers and his two sisters. After expenses had been deducted, each heir received $12,733.—J. M.

Negroes, you know the necessity of team-work in time of war. Never has, in the history of the United States, organization been so absolutely imperative and recent events in the industrial, mining and commercial world have shown the driving power of effective organization, intelligently directed than at the present time. Many and numerous have the calls been made for the Negroes by our government. Many more will be made before this war is over. Get yourselves ready for the effectiveness of an organization depends absolutely upon the co-operation it receives from the individual.

The fishing fleet landing fishery products at Boston and Gloucester, Mass., and Portland, Me., during August, 1917, included 286 steam and sail vessels. These vessels landed at Boston 394 trips aggregating 10,625,629 pounds, valued at $623,139; at Gloucester 175 trips, aggregating 10,148,290 pounds, valued at $451,209, and at Portland, 183 trips, aggregating 2,147,823 pounds, valued at $94,040. The total for the three ports amounted to 752 trips, aggregating 22,921,748 pounds of fresh and salted fish, having a value to the fishermen of $1,168,388. French Beans. Boil the beans in the usual way, drain them, then put them into a saucepan with a good sized lump of butter; toss over the fire for a few minutes; then add a teaspoonful of chopped parsley, a teaspoonful of flour rubbed into a smooth batter with two tablespoonfuls of milk, pepper and salt to taste; let them remain on the stove for five minutes, shaking frequently to prevent burning.

The osage orange is serving its country well. The wood of this tree is furnishing dye for khaki and olive-drab cloth. Scientists have long known that the humble but plentiful tree was capable of distinguished service, but few persons believed that it would give itself, or at least its yellow juices, to the military service. When the dye shortage was felt in the United States soon after the beginning of the war, the statement was made on high scientific authority that the osage orange would produce one of the few natural dyes which might permanently compete with the aniline, colors, the manufacture and sale of which has been monopolized by the Germans. The dye of this wood is not an orange color, but a light yellow which can be made to yield several shades as desired. The mock orange, though common in the vicinity of Washington, is most plentiful in those parts of the West where the settlers demanded a stout, thrifty, quick-growing hedge tree. The osage orange was equal to these requirements and was extensively planted in the form of windbreaks in the hitherto treeless regions and was also planted as hedges around the fields to serve the place of fencing. The word "khaki" is of Hindustance origin and signifies "dust color."

Correspondent Points to the Fact That the Revolution Frequently Makes Strange Bedfellows. Under the title, "Ivan in Wonderland," William G. Shepherd, war correspondent, recently gave in Everybody's Magazine a comprehensive idea of the strange happenings he has been witnessing daily in topsy-turvy Russia. "Where can I take you next?" asked the Red Cross doctor who was taking Mr. Shepherd about Petrograd. "To the czar's Winter palace to see Mrs. Pankhurst." "The car started; the doctor, after a moment, broke into a hearty laugh. 'Sounds like a burlesque comedian's joke,' he said. 'Going to the Winter palace in old St. Petersburg to see Mrs. Pankhurst.' "That isn't all," I said. 'She was due there this forenoon to meet Ellihu Root.' "The doctor held his head as if it ached. 'Mrs. Pankhurst and Ellihu Root talking together in the Winter palace?' "Yes, and Charles Edward Russell, the socialist, will be with them.' "I give up,' said the doctor helplessly. 'I try to keep sane here in Russia, but it's worse than "Alice in Wonderland."' "Within a few moments we were in the Winter palace, gorgeous with royal fittings, its rooms so high that ten of them would equal a 40-story New York sky-scraper, and there, like pygmies, under the sky-high cellings, were Mrs. Pankhurst and Mr. Russell; in a remote corner of the room was Elihu Root conferring with a Russian baron. "The three of them, with many other persons from various parts of the earth, had come to Russia to try to help her through her period of astonishment and get her back to the fighting line; and yet they, themselves, formed one of these incongruous pictures that can be seen only in the Russian wonderland of today." The Sarcastic Critic. Carl Van Vechten, a New York music critic, said at a dinner: "The average opera-goer is of Mrs. Astorbilt's type. When Mrs. Astorbilt returned from the opera the other evening, her husband said: "Been to the opera, eh? What did you hear? "What didn't I hear?" said Mrs. Astorbilt. 'I heard that young Junior Shadd is pleading for exemption on the ground of having dependents, for it seems his millionaire wife depends on him. I heard that Cortland and Bueecker Ruthven got drunk last night at a pacifist banquet, and a cop ran them in. I heard that Count Fallcon is no count at all, and so Lotta Goldo has thrown him over. I heard—" "Don't interrupt me," said his wife. I thought you wanted to know what I heard? "So I did, but—" "Well, I heard—" "No, no!" said Astorbilt, impatiently. 'What I wanted to know was, what opera you heard.' "Oh," said Mrs. Astorbilt, as she began to undress. I don't remember. Let me see—I saw the name on the program—but, no, I don't remember." SOME REMARKS There's no fixed rule in life for the benefit of mankind. Samson got into trouble because he got his hair cut and Absalom got into trouble because he didn't. When the hen lays low eggs get high. If you still love her after seeing her in curl papers and a kimono before marriage, young man, go ahead with the rat killing. You can't find a better model to go by than Mother Nature. Always she does her level best and just look at her handiwork. Home Poultry Plant Pays. It is a well-known fact that the small backyard poultry plant is more profitable than the plant where birds are raised in a commercial way and handled in large numbers. All agree that the reason for this fact lies chiefly in the difference in the food supply. The small backyard outfit is fed with the scraps from the family trade. The hens flourish on this diet, my eggs plentifully, and yield a handsome return to their owners at practically no extra expenditure for food. Iron and Steel for Japan. The importation of iron and steel into Japan made a new record in September, 1917. In that month $13,000,000 worth of the principal kinds of iron and steel was imported at the 20 leading ports, while in August the imports of all iron and steel at all Japanese ports amounted to less than $10,000,000 in value.

The pastor brought to us in the morning his message to his hearers, disclosed Him to the marriage; and the door was shut." The pastor, in unfolding message, subject "The Closed Door." The source of his inspiration was in Matthew 25:10. "And while they went to buy, the Bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with the fact that the real Christian life really shines, their lamps forever burn and they shed their light upon others. Lives are only moved by our conduct and influence, and all depends on Christians being in action and continual doers of God's will; not basking in the light of others, but holding the torch-light high—keeping the vessel well supplied with oil. In this way being the means by which God can do things. Rev. W. E. Steward, of Omaha, Neb., delivered the evening address to a large and appreciative audience, text Gal. 1:2:3. Lamenting the fact "That all nature and unreasoning animal creation were submissive to God's law and order, while man goes on pursuing a course of disregard and disobedience to God, who nourishes him, and who is the source of his every blessing. Only a small number of one hundred pledged personal soul winning workers were present Sunday at 4 p.m. A season of earnest prayer was held. Nothing is more essential to the soul winner than earnest, fervent, effectual prayer. Prayer will generate a spiritual atmosphere in the individual life. The prayers of many will generate a spiritual atmosphere in the community. These consultations and prayer meetings will be held each Sunday at 4 p.m. until the revival begins. Workers, consider how much we can lift the burden and encourage our pastor and leader by our prompt and full attendance each evening, especially the leaders of our various activities.

If there are any dates which do not agree with ours, please inform us at once, so that correction can be made and adjusted. All those who are delinquent are urged to pay up at once as the government forbids us carrying delinquent subscribers. Please take notice of the above and oblige THE NEGRO COMMERCIAL ASSOCIATION. It is very gratifying to note the interest which is being manifested in the organization of our forces to promote our material intercats. It is becoming evident that conditions and circumstances of today are causing the Negro to think and see as he has not done before. He is learning that his intellectual, moral and spiritual well-being must have a sure foundation in material things. He is learning that gross poverty and unremitted servitude are not specially conducive to the development of his higher powers. He has always felt and believed himself to be a human being—a man; and as genus homo he should have rights and privileges which others are bound to respect and accord him. But his environment is teaching him, that in this world of ours the great human forces are largely moved and controlled by sentiment. Consequently, he is seeing that he has got to build largely upon that same sentiment and seek to win it to his favor. He is going to stand or fall, in great measure, by just what others think of him. That is, if he wants to be respected he has got to be respectable. If he claims a man's privileges, he must show a man's qualities. He stands upon his rights he must be equipt to defend as well as claim his rights. This seems heartless, but it is the way of the world. The Negro is learning all this. It is good. He must divide the spoil with the strong must first show his strength—he must be tested. If he falls or falls he must reap the reward of the vanquished. The saying is not altogether pagan. "The victor belongs the spoils." There is a crude and simple justice in the universal sentiment that if a man receives the laurels he must first win the race. This is true not only of the individual, but of a community and a people. In the face of our demands for the rights of citizenship, we naturally incur the obligation to show the quality of citizenship, in the highest sense. There are duties to fulfil, difficulties to face, and sacrifices to make, which, in the very spirit of courage by which we meet them, we necessarily prove the quality of that citizenship for which we make ourselves worthy. Gifts and privileges above that which he has earned are not good for any man. We give to children, and we thus meet a necessity in their child-nature which makes for development: but as they take on the nature and powers of manhood and womanhood, we expect, and rightly, that in large, measure they should make their own way. Any other philosophy blights true manhood. The Negro has not always seen this; but thanks to a kindly Providence and the necessities of his environment he is waking up. Furthermore, the Negro is finding out that if he would enjoy the fruits of commerce he must first become commercial. A first principle of business science is that production must equal consumption. The medium of business intercourse is infailibly regulated by this law. The man or the community who cannot here strike a balance is most certainly on the wrong side of the ledger. All of which means, until the Negro becomes a producer he is going to continue a serf. In boyhood we had a homely saying, "It's hard, but it's fair." The Apostle Paul wrote, "If any man work not, neither shall he eat." There are many who have not sounded the full range of the Apostle's meaning. It would seem reasonable that the quality, as well as the quantity, of his eating would be determined by that work. This is a hard philosophy, but in mastering it a race makes itelf men. "The game is worth the candle." Any community of people who earn and spend between two and three millions of good money annually, but who do not retain to themselves even two per cent. of this huge sum thru legitimate business activities, are carrying up on their faces a manifest badge of incompetence, which permits the social body to surely and rightly determine their place. Finally, the Negro preacher is learning that the Gospel of salvation which fits a man to occupy his place in heaven must first fit him to rightly occupy his place in this world. Man has a three-fold nature, body, mind and spirit; a trinity of personality, one and undivisable. The attempt to develop the one without due thot and concern from the other is wholly abnormal and must result in failure. Consequently it is as much a duty to preach from our pulpits honest and legitimate co-operation in commercial and business affairs, as to insist upon co-operation in activities confined to the realm of spirit. These are a few considerations upon the motives behind the Negro Commercial Association. And we believe that every self-respecting Negro will rally thero.

He leaves a host of relatives and friends to mourn his death. Y. M. C. A.

For Sale By SHORTER'S USHERS CLUB Holds Its' 11th Annual Reception The installation and reception held annually by the Ushers Club is looked forward to by the congregation and friends of Shorter as a time when the men of the church may be seen at their best. But never in its history has the club appeared to better advantage than on January 28, 1918. To strains of sweet music rendered by Mrs. Mae Byrd, the members of the club, led by Rev. and Mrs. C. A. Williams, marched into the auditorium, each with a lady on his arm. These were followed by 12 young ladies gowned in white, who were to do the honors of the occasion. The men in full dress were seated in a half circle in the altar and in the midst of them was that beautiful and lovable Mrs. Branford, their newly elected mother. The pastor with the retiring president, Mr. W. M. Robinson, the president-elect, Mr. J. P. Perkins and the secretary, Mr. K. G. Johnson, were seated on the platform. These men in the midst of flowers and palms presented an appearance that made one proud to be a Negro. These men so accustomed to be courteous and kind, had kindness and courtesy beaming from their eyes, and their carriage was marked by that grace and ease which long contact with the public always gives. The master of ceremonies, Mr. C. A. Burton, was at his best. In the auditorium a brief, well prepared program was reheated. Short speeches were made by Mr. Robinson and Mr. Perkins. Instrumental solo, Mrs. E. Mallard. Vocal solo, Miss Jewel Perkins. Recitation, Miss Elsie Von Dickersohn. The History of the Club, Mr. K. G. Johnson. The officers were installed by Rev. C. A. Williams, who proved himself a master in this line. But there was more to follow. In the lecture room a sight to please the most aesthetic and a menu to satisfy the most epicurean awaited us. Flowers, ferns, palms, and other beautiful and artistic decorations were to be seen everywhere. The menu served by 12 beautiful girls and interspersed with toasts from prominent citizens caused us to forget time and ere we reluctantly departed, wishing many returns, the clock had told the midnight hour. These men who serve us from Sabbath to Saabath are a versatile set. They are at home anywhere their work calls them, and they begin this year's work with pledges for the loyal support and reciprocal courtesy of those whom they serve. They serve in so many ways that all cannot be said in o brief page. They equip themselves by studying God's word, they then put into practice what they learn there, by visiting sick, contributing to the needy, comforting the distressed and helping any who ask their aid. They find employment for hundreds and point strangers to good Christian homes. This and other things for the uplift of the community and the good of the church, constitutes their work and they are always ready to serve.

Denver, Cole. S "Bill Crow certainly is a brave bird." "How's that?" "Why, he's never yet shown the white feather." BRANDED AS "BOURGEOIS." Countess Panin, a genuine Russian liberal, a woman who had devoted not only her money but her own time and energy to welfare work among the working classes gave me the story of her own experience, Samuel N. Harper writes in the New York Independent. The workmen, and their wives also, came to her, very apologetic but firm in their explanations of why they must vote against her, because she was "bourgeois." I was somewhat confused by the use of the word "bourgeois" until I heard the definition of the term given by a cabman of Petrograd: "Why, a bourgeois is one who lived well under the old regime." Demagogues exploited this idea and used it dishonestly. But despite this fact, the idea contained an element of truth and in any case represented a testing of the "right to enjoy the good things of this life." Thus many who had unselfishly and ardently worked for a new order in Russia, for a revolution, were brushed aside by the revolution. That is what happened to many of the zemstvo workers. For though they had worked against the old regime, they had worked under and through it and they had "lived well under the old regime." DOING WRONG TO DO RIGHT Manufacturers Form Combination to Assist Government Directly in Violation of Sherman Antitrust Law. A manufacturer connected with one of the biggest plants of its kind in the country told a writer for the Philadelphia Ledger recently that the government wanted one of its products, but wanted it in such enormous quantities and in such haste that it would have been impossible for any one plant to turn it out. The manufacturer wanted to help the government, so he called together the representatives of more than a dozen other large plants in the same line of business and explained the situation to them. "We must agree on a price, a low price so the government can get what it needs." All were competitors, but they came to the government's assistance and agreed to make the product and deliver it for a price so low that there not only would be no excess profits to tax, but there was a strong belief that there would be no pofts at all. "This combination," remarked the manufacturer, "was directly in violation of the Sherman antitrust law, and at any other time we might all be put in jail. But it was the only way."
