FIVE CENTS A COP HEADQUARTERS OF THE COL ORED DIVISONS OF TROOPS OF THE AMERICAN ARMY ON THE AISNE FRONT Today one of the stiffest battles of the past ten days was waged by the colored troops of the American army stationed here. Several Negro divisions crossed the Vesle river in hot pursuit of large forces of German troops who began an attack on this end of the line early this morning. The advance was preceded by a heavy artillery bombardment which continued all Sunday night. From the plateau the colored soldiers took up positions in the ravines and put up such a strong fire with their machine guns that they succeeded in chasing the enemy nearly six miles back by Monday morning at daylight. All day Monday the Huns tried in vain to check the sweeping advance of the colored troops but in spite of that heavy fire made by the enemy the "Black Devils of America" continued to push their line forward, keeping the Hun on the run. It is now an undisputed fact that the colored troops of America are virtually better than the German soldier from the fact that he seems to care very little for danger when once started. The Negro soldier is going to play an important part in winning this war and he has done much to prove that fact already. Military experts here are at a lost to understand how these colored troops can engage in the hottest kind of battle and come out with very small lost. Tuesday night, Sept. 3, the colored troops captured Fort de Conde and Conde-sur-Aisne, two French cities that the Germans had held since 1914. In this battle the colored troops fought fast and fierce and, in, fact, they were too quick for the Germans in every stage of the game, assuming every advantage possible in their made rush oves the battle line. "You see the colored soldiers have become more efficient with the gun than a great deal of the white troopers," said a commanding officer in giving his reason for the colored soldier's success as a fighter. "He is a true marksman and takes particular care of his arms at all times," he continued. COLORED TROOPS ON ITALIAN FRONT. American troops in Italy still are in reserve sectors and have not taken part in any activities. Referring to the location of Amercian divisions in France, General March said the 27th, composed of New York troops, had now taken its place on the line Flanders, while the 92d, composed of Negro troops from all districts, had arrived in the Vosges. The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 Lincoln Eyre, with an American Negro contingent on the French front, tells how Sergt. William Butler, of New York, routed 20 Germans recently. The following is an extract from Eyre's article, published in the New York World. Butler's exploit, for which he receives the croix de guerre, rivals the performance of Henry Johnson and Needham Roberts, privates in the same regiment, the first report of which was cabled to the world last May. It is additional proof of fighting qualities of our Negro soldiers The engagement in which Butler played so spiendid a role took place in the early morning of Aug. 18 in the regimental sector near Maisons de Champagne, north east of Stemenhould. Following a sharp artillery preparation, the enemy had launched a strong raiding party, which, cutting in from two sides, managed, with the aid of a cage barrage, to isolate four of our front line combat posts. In one of them, Lieut. G. R. Jones, stepping over to light a starshall, was "jumped" by five boches. He and four of his men were dragged out of the trench and shoved toward the German lines, along a dis used communication trench in No Man's land. On the way the raiders, with their prisoners ahead of them, passed, within fifty yards of a little ad vanced post in which Butler crouched with two privates. "Don't fire Butler! Lieut. Jones cried, 'Not yet, sir, but soon,' the sergent sang out. The Germans were so flustered by this colloquy, which seems to them to indicate an ambuscade, that they wheeled about towards Butlers hiding place. Lieut. Jones immediately signalled his four men to follow him and clambered up the sides of the trench. As the five started back toward the American lines the Lieutenant cried: 'Now let him have it Sergt. Butler yelled his warning to to the 'bush Germans' and stumbled through the darkness to a point from which he could enfilade the trench they were in, and and cut loose with his automatic. The Boches 'made up a train' as the Negro troops say, and without loss of time they skedaddled home ward at top speed, leaving their officers wounded and four privates killed in the trench. Butler chased them to with in their wire, and doubtless slew some more with his hand grenades. He rambled all over the sector in search of gray-green prey, returning to the combat post only when he was completely exhausted. Louisville, Ky.—Six of the ten honor men among the 2,500 graduates today of the Central Artillery Officers' School at Camp Zackary Taylor were Negroes. KNOWN BY YOUR DEEDS John W. Hardy Wins New Honors Brings Victory out of Defeat in Pueblo DENVER COLORADO SATURDAY September 21 1918. Two Autos were furnished to be at the disposal of Mesdames Fallings and Stewart who were to overlook the work rendering any assistance wherever needed. We report to you the above facts so you can arrive at your own opinion concerning the statements made against him and his employer both of whom did more for the Negro recognition than any other agency during any previous election. Think of doing this at a PRIMARY ELECTION!! Negroes were hired to do a certain work, paid a fair price and it was done. This clearly When John W. Hardy, because of his position as president of the Colored Republican club, was selected to do work for Mr. Phipps, his employer for more than 20 years and Mr. Shoup of Colorado Springs. The Colorado Statesman, Waterman's booster on Aug. 31st, sent up an editorial wail in the following language, attacking Messrs Phipps and Hardy under the head "Undesirable set with us." When the Negro race of Denver or anywhere else is BEFRIENDED BY A WEALTHY WHITE MAN or large white corporation in the way of great financial benefactors, it is impossible to keep that fact hidden, as white benefactors, to prove their true American spirit generally get publicity whether voluntarily or involuntarily, and then the good news would be inserted in every Negro journal we could possibly get in touch with. How many Negroes in Denver know of the great things that have been done for them as a whole by a Denver financier? The man who because certain obligations must boost, support, and DO EVERYTHING IN HIS POWER to help his immediate employer to succeed in a political campaign is not necessarily denounced, does not merit our dis approval, should not be treated harshly, as his case can be seen through, and it stands to reason that any one in a similar position might have done the same—something common to human nature. But the accredited NEGRO LEADERS, who get in front whether requested or not, barter in the game of the sale of their race, and fall to the side that produces the greater monetary reward, filling the role of THE UNDESIRABLES, as following their career from state to state, city to city, their indulgence in the old game keeps them apparently luxurious until an analysis is made and their positions found to be in the "soap bubble" order. These are the agents of destruction in our community and among our colored electors, who like the sparks that fly upwards try to alight on something, who live their days of probabilities, unstable in their general actions, get out of sight like the caterpillar, returning at election periods in the resplendence of the butterfly. But they are known, whether individually or grouped, through sub-agents, at last they find our people are thinking, and the existence of such deceivers will soon be forgotten. YOU CANNOT FOOL ALL THE PEOPLE ALL THE TIME will demonstrate itself at the primary election and POLITICAL PARASITES will find that their day of reckoning is here." Understand this language has not been repudiated, nor apologized for by the Editor, so we take it that he means it as strongly after the primary as he did betore. John W. Hardy, the man who made good, knocked by the Colorado Statesman and boosted by the Star. John W. Hardy, the man who made good, knocked by the Colorado Statesman and boosted by the Star. proves our contention that wherever a fair day's wage is paid, a fair day's work is given. Mr. Hardy will have a few fall campaign plans to announce in 10 days when some "ginger" will be put in this fall's election. Mr. Hardy has won his spurs of recognition, has dealt square with his co-workers and altho he might not have received so much cash, yet his backers are greatly tickled over his work and if his plans carry, complete recognition, as never before will be given us this fall. Some of the big broad minded and open hearted Republicans seem disposed to freely allow the Negro without that pinching off spirit, his part due him in working for a successful election. They have at last awakened to the fact that where Negroes predominate, that white representatives cannot do the effective work as Negroes themselves. We there fore take great pride in Hardy's push "over the top" in the big Phipps victory and trust that a bigger victory awaits him further down the line. We congratulate him. It was amusing to the Star to see how flimsy and weak a paper, without a real backbone to stand up and out above board for the Negro, can get when they have an ax to grind or a few dollars to make. How far they will go, neither sparing their own race nor their white wealthy friends whose only objections were to them that they had money and gave some of it to the Negro. Mr. Hardy had the honor of the presidency being given him without his seeking after which he was duly recognized by his party. Some old politicians looked wise and refused to work while others tried to confuse, harass and disturb the peace within the works. Mr. Hardy being undaunted by these little set backs rolled up his sleeves and went to work with the people and for the people, and not Hardy's benefit. These facts tell an eloquent story. Forty women were given two days work canvassing at $5.00 per day. Thirty women were given work registering at $3.00 and $5.00 per day, and 15 specials worked all week. On election day between 75 and So men and women worked. Mr. Geo, W. Gross visited Chapelton and Orchard Colo, while Mr. Hardy looked after Pueblo and Colorado Springs occasionally, as well as Walsenburg and Trinidad. Pueblo was conceded to Waterman before the advent of Mr. Hardy and when he, with Mr. Percy Lawrence assisted by Capt. Cates, and Mrs. Hatcher and others began to work upon the canvass and registration, the daily paper commented upon the fact of so many Negro registrants, never had such demonstration been made before Primary day caused 26 Negroes to work together with 4 autos owned by Negroes and Pueblo was carried by 1000 Negro votes for Phipps and event almost impossible ordinarily. The Phipps headquarters thanked and appreciated Mr. Hardy for his herculean task, accomplished in 10 oays at odd times. So well had he laid his plans and executed them thru Mesdame Isabelle Stewart and Mable Fallings that his precinct gave Mr. Phipps 106 votes, with Waterman 5 votes of the 111 votes cast. While Negroes cont ol that precinct in a even fight, the committeeman white of Waterman faith cannot understand how the Negro influence reached their white neighbors TRENCH RATS ARE WORSE THAN HUNS SAYS WM. H. DOBBS William Henry Doobs, former employee of the Argus, who is now with the 370th Infantry, now in the front line trenches in France, writes an interesting letter about his experiences in active service. Dobbs says all are being well fed and when they are not fighting they amuse them selves playing baseball, cards and checkers. He says it does not get dark until 9 o'clock. Harry Douglas another St. Louis boy, has been made a Sergeant. All St. Louis boys, as far as he can learn, are O. K. and send re gards back home. Dobbs writes. "We are fight ing bravely and successfully with our allies and driving the enemy back. Last June I was on guard in a trench with my gun when a Boche started sending big shells on top of our first line trench. I had to stay at my post, of course, but was lucky enough to dodge shrapnell by lying flat on the ground. No one was injured." "I am more afraid of trench rats than I am of the Germans. They are as large as a rabbit and black" I killed two with my bayonet. It is some life. We must wear our gas masks at all times and keep them near us when we are sleeping. This is a beautiful country and the French people and soldiers are nice to us." MUST DROP PLEASURE AND ATTEND to BOCHE NOW Mrs. Katie Alexander, McAlester, Okla. Dear Mother Just a few lines to let you hear from me and to inform you that I am in the best of health at the present time and hope that you will be the same when you become the glad re cipient of this message of love. The first question in mind is whether you are getting your allowance regularly; if so, state the amount in your letter in answer to this that I may know whether it is correct. Question number two is in connection with the liberty loan of the second series. I have paid infull for a $100 Liberty Bond of the second series and designated you as the person to whom I would like it sent for safe keeping for me. I also want to know when you receive it. Have Mr. Free man take care of it and all interest that may become due before I am discharged and deposit it to my credit with him. With all my money matters over I may talk a little pleasure but it must be short because here is no place to discuss the different modes of pleasure while the Hun needs attending to. And we are going to attend to the Boche, too. But as I said, 'All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.. I want you to send me weekly a copy of "The National Sporsman" and "Top Notch" magazines. Be sure and keep up my Masonic dues and charge same to my account to be settled at the close of the war. I wrote a letter to Prof. Pettus and wife at Langston some two weeks ago, also one to Henry Boxley. Am glad to know that every one is getting along well in the little burg.

WATCH FOR PARTICULARS Ilfracombe, Popular English Summer Resort, Has Been Well Known Through Many Centuries. Ilfracombe is rapidly becoming popular as a summer resort—or, as the English call it, a watering place. It is set on a steep hillside, surrounded by "the seven hills," on the beautiful Devonshire coast. From the near town of Hillsborough Ilfracombe shows a mass of white cottages, clinging desperately to the hillside to keep from tumbling into the Atlantic ocean. Many people think that Ilfracombe is a modern town, in spite of its quaintness, because it has such an up-to-date air. But Ilfracombe is a skillfully camoufaged antique, having been a harbor of some note way back in the twelfth century. This attractive townlet has been inflicted with a great variety of jaw-breaking names during the centuries of its existence. Its names range all the way from Aelfringcombe and Ilfordcombe to Alfredscombe, and, at last, Ilfracombe. But the good folk round about Ilfracombe just call it 'Combe. In 1344 Ilfracombe was one of the 45 English ports that sent representatives to the council of shipping, and in 1646 it was captured by Fairfax. They say there were some hot skirmishes at that time in what is now known as "Bloody Meadow." Some cannon balls of that period found here corroborate this tale. In these olden days wrecks near Ilfracombe were frequent, and pearls and other valuable treasures of the Indies were often sold to advantage by the fisher folk to merchants in neighboring towns. First Quakers The first Quakers to land on American soil were Mary Fisher and Ann Austin, who reached Boston in 1656 after a long voyage from England by way of the West Indian island of Barbados. The two women caused great consternation to the Puritans, and George Bishop, in an address to the magistrates, said: "Two women arriving in your harbor so shock ye, to the everlasting shame of you and of your established order, as if a formidable army had invaded your borders." The Quaker sect, or Society of Friends, was founded by Fox in 1648, about eight years before the first members reached America on July 11, 1656. Later George Fox visited America. The part played by William Penn and other Quakers in the early history of Pennsylvania and New Jersey is familiar to all students of history.

Enough to Burst Fifty 3-Inch Stokes Mortar Shells. Something Do Dearfield's Third The world is made up of two classes of people: lifters and leaners. The lifters are builders, the trail blazers, the initiators, the strong, the never-die sort; the others are just simply the leaners. In a greater or less degree, every man and woman make up into one of these classes. In greater or less degree YOU are drifting one way or the other. Think for a moment: where do you stand? The world is turning over. It's hunting its power of place and men must make up its sphere. They must construct its bed. How inspiring is a litter! Have you ever stopped to consider that every time you lift, you grow—stronger? And every time you lean—ever so unconsciously—you grow weaker? The entire world must be made strong that it may lift up the weak. Your place is probably right where you are—until some compelling power calls and leads you to some other place. Work out your plan. But first get, or create a plan; for as you lead, others are bound to follow. Example is influence. Example is inspiration. And inspiration is achievement—pictured out. Lift, my friend, lift. This is our country! We have worked for it, we have suffered for it, we have fought for it; we have made its music, we have tinged its ideals, its poetry, its religion, its dreams; we have reached in this land our highest modern development and nothing, humanly speaking, can prevent us from eventually reaching here the full stature of our manhood. Our country is at war. The war is criti this is OUR COUNTRY, this is OUR WAR. We must fight it with every ounce of blood and treasure—Crisis. It is a grand thing to live in Colorado among her snow-capped peaks, to open the eyes in the morning in her cool, refreshing and invigorating atmosphere and look out upon the world, to drink in deeply nature's rarest gems and then enjoy the sweet sunshine, to feel the pulse bound and being thrill with the consciousness of strength and power in every nerve: it is a good thing simply to be alive in Colorado and it is a good world to live in, in spite of the abuse we are fond of giving it. It is not only reward that treads upon the beels of virtue. Mostly the virtue in itself is all the visable reward. To know that it is no defeat to stand for the right; to feel the victor's joy when one has stood up against the pressure or oppression for what he knows is the righteous thing to do. Even when the reward comes after a while in the substantial form of advancement, the joy of victory comes first and stands ahead of all the others always. There are more than 6,000,000 Africans among the 17,000,000 people in Brazil, and many of them the crudest type of Negro on the American hemisphere. Why has God seen fit to put 12 millions of Negroes in the U. S. and geographically divide us in such a manner? The Negro must close ranks and come in closer touch one with the other for commercial and other reasons. Cuba, Haiti and Santo Domingo bid us close ranks.

Waterman, the defeated aspirant for U.S., not, as far as we can know, extended his bid to Mr. Phipps, who so generously said in a help his opponent, we likewise think that hisado Statesman, that printed a strong edition, "Layman and Professional," attacking the U. S., has not clearly enough correcting statements in the editorial: The States is a Legislative body. Its principle is to certain the needs and necessities of all classes of facts are found, to prepare and pass statutes with the Constitution of the United States, the greatest good for the greatest number of the people. The best equipped United States senator is the laws and statutes of the United States, observation and practical experience having of the country's intricate affairs—both and true conception of the country's future. Deserted to by successful business men to always chosen because he possesses all the qualifications must be possessed by any successful senator." After reading the manifesto and relying on the facts presented us, we are than the layman is not fitted to meet the professional being peculiarly trained and, really the logical candidate for the people and even state officers have been meddled with the proof of failure, but the necessity demandsENT and qualified, and therefore the contracts to Charles W. Waterman, fearless champion. CLASS, CREED, COLOR, ONLY 100 PRINTING you, sir, now if your logic and reason (ratic) is a professional man, are you going to show us your colors. Right then, you are wrong now, by the very outlaymen and professional men obtain beations and training necessary to both men. Therefore, you favor trained lawyers and face Mr. Waterman is defeated, you necessitate Shafroth, the present United States Senator, either swallow, repudiate or stand still you talked too fast and ran over yourself. We take all the slams and good things which us or actually hand us. When the Denver attacking by your friends, no matter who they knew the following comment, August 31st, Because Mr. Waterman, the defeated aspirant for U. S. Senate from Colorado, has not, as far as we can know, extended his help in the coming fall campaign to Mr. Phipps, who so generously said in case of his defeat that he would help his opponent, we likewise think that his red hot supporting paper Colorado Statesman, that printed a strong editorial August 31st, under the caption, "Layman and Professional," attacking Mr. Phipps' ability for the office of the U. S., has not clearly enough corrected the impression made by the following statements in the editorial: "The United States is a Legislative body. Its principal function is to investigate and ascertain the needs and necessities of all classes of the people, and when the facts are found, to prepare and pass statutes and laws which are in accord with the Constitution of the United States, and which shall secure the greatest good for the greatest number of the citizens of the United States. The best equipped United States senator is one who knows the needs and requirements of all classes of American people, who knows the Constitution and the laws and statutes of the United States. * * * Who by education, observation and practical experience has broad vision, a clear understanding of the country's intricate affairs—both present and past—and a clear and true conception of the country's future needs. * * * The lawyer is resorted to by successful business men to guide and conduct their affairs; is always chosen because he possesses all these qualifications, and all these qualifications must be possessed by any successful and influential United States senator." After reading the manifesto of CHARLES W. WATERMAN and relying on the facts presented us, we can come to no other conclusion than the layman is not fitted to meet the present emergency, while the PROFESSIONAL being peculiarly trained and by education and experience is really the logical candidate for the people. Town councils, state boards and even state officers have been meddled with by laymen only to give the same proof of failure, but the necessity demands MEN THOROUGHLY COMPETENT and qualified, and therefore the consensus of opinion and support points to Charles W. Waterman, fearless champion of the people, who knows no CLASS, CREED, COLOR, ONLY 100 PER CENT AMERICANISM." We are asking you, sir, now if your logic and reasoning is good, since Shafroth (democratic) is a professional man, are you going to support him? Speak out and show us your colors. If you were right then, you are wrong now, by the verdict of the people. If your logic about laymen and professional men obtain before the primaries as to the qualifications and training necessary to both men, it certainly obtains after election. Therefore, you favor trained lawyers and following your line of reasoning, since Mr. Waterman is defeated, you necessarily would favor Lawyer John F. Shafroth, the present United States Senator. Come down, Zachens, come down, either swallow, repudiate or stand straight. Be a man or a mouse, if you talked too fast and ran over yourself and your friends, come clean now. We naturally take all the slams and good things which our good people attempt to hand us or actually hand us. When the Denver Star came out on the principle of sticking by your friends, no matter who they were and where they were, we drew the following comment, August 31st, from our contemporary: "SOME UNDESIRABLES YET WITH US. I yet with us the so-called colored man election, as they anxiously look forward, their depleted financial coffers, or as they is never representative of any one, and with the status of the mass of respectable tax-pollination of other citizens. These undesirably old discreditable way, have a new slogan: MY ISSUE NOW, ONLY THE MAN; yet the headquarters caucusing with Republicans, and then a bi-partisan group built upon THE MAN. We are glad to note that such chasers as they have not even influence with the us, and having been discovered by both pari and a refuge in—THE MAN. Now to all we Coloradoans let us find out what these ago "There are yet with us some of the so-called colored politicians who again welcome an election, as they anxiously look forward to such events to replenish their depleted financial coffers, or as they term it—"raise a job"—a job which is never representative of any one, and which in many instances lowers the status of the mass of respectable tax-paying Negro residents in the estimation of other citizens. These undesirables, besides playing politics in the old discreditable way, have a new slogan attached, which runs—NO PARTY ISSUE NOW, ONLY THE MAN; yet they are at one time in the Republican headquarters caucusing with Republicans and another time with Democrats, and then a bi-partisan group built upon the new doctrine, NO PARTY—THE MAN. We are glad to note that such characters have outplayed themselves as they have not even influence with the gang they led in former campaigns, and having been discovered by both parties, they have to hide, cloak or find a refuge in—THE MAN. Now to all well-thinking Denver people and other Coloradoans, let us find out what these agents have done in the shape of success for themselves, any organizations they are connected with, or what have "the men" whose glorious deeds (?) they now declare on behalf of our race or the community done before their intention to acquire present political honors." Think of a paper boasting of being a quarter of a century old, without nothing to its credit for doing something for someone else, except what it does selfishly for itself. Attempting to strike at a paper whose fight has always been for the Negro against anything and anybody, when the Negro was right. Denver and Colorado know who really to depend upon when fights some up, where on must be valiant hearted and needs sacrifice his talents, money, ambitions, etc., for the race. We reiterate, we are for our friends and against our enemies, no matter where found. AND WE WILL BE HEARD. EDITORIAL REFLECTIONS. E: Whitney Kyle. Life is won or lost by its master thoughts. Today's triumphs dictates new troubles tomorrow. God is not the creator of our evil mind. Peace if possible; but truth at any price. No circumstances can repair a defect of character. The tongue creates nearly all the mischief of the world. Many a man of real talent has been handicapped by his egotism. To inform the mind is to correct and enlarge the heart. To a bad Negro or a bad white man, good doctrine that teaches the golden rule, is nothing. He who thinks it is gentlemanly to resent every affront, doesn't get his idea of gentleness from the gospel. It was the desire of ancient philosophy to find God; it is the desire of modern philosophy to get rid of him. Great as hope and faith are, they are secondary to love. The first two are human, the lost is divine, and faileth not. If in this age of muck-raking men were half as anxious to find out themselves as they are to discover the faults of others, the world would be better off. Mere family name never made a man great. Thought and deed, not pedigree, are the passports to enduring fame. Destiny is determined by friendship. One hand opened in charity is worth a bushel folded in prayer. When friendship and love have enriched man and deepened all the secret springs of his being, when grief has refined and suffering mellowed him, then God sends the ideals to stimulate men to new achievements. Every transgression is like an iron plate hurled into the air; gravity will pull it back on the wrongdoer's head and wound him. No matter how much religion we profess, all that counts is what we live. --- Unfortunately mothers do not demand their wages in dollars and cents. If they did, and they demand pay according to their duties, the total lack of a sufficiency of money would stop the domestic wheel. Their compensation, and all they ask for, is the kindness, affection, love, and devotion of their children. Beyond this, consideration of everything ceases to exist. Below it, the temple of life crumbles on the awful desert of forsaken hearts. Deny the mother every luxury that money can provide, imprison her in a hovel without anything but the bare necessities, but let her feel that her children love and honor her name and she will raise her heart in prayer with a ferver of thankfulness that only her tender heart knows how to breathe. "No man who looks down on his fellowman is fit to govern him."—Moorfield storey. Have you sent our boys any papers, letters, or cards to cheer them this week? If not, why not? They are yearning for home news. DO IT NOW. Send a postal weekly. No peace can come until the disloyal pacifists, "With the milk and water patriotism" have been extirpated from the nation's citizenship, and "sedition has found an early grave." That which has kept Europe on fire with the flames of war has been the wolf in sheep's clothing, going about crying for peace, peace, peace, when there is no peace. They say that Christ was a man of peace 'it was his vision that saw the crimson blood-red fields of today with the Moloch of Autocracy stalking forth in the scarlet uniform of hell, putting the death-rattle in the throats of countless thousands of men and women and innocent children. This causes the sword of Christ to leap from its scabbard and flash with the truth in its execution for the defense of a suffering humanity. Protest, my brother, and grumbles. I have seen the Visun and it shall not fade. We want victory for ourselves.—dear God, how terribly we want it—but it must not be cheap bargaining, it must be clean and glorious, won by our manliness and not by the threat of the footpad. In the day of our lowest travail we did not murder children and rape women to bring our freedom nearer. We played the game and freedom came. So, too, today our souls are ours, but our bodies belong to our country. Patience, then, without compromise; silence without surrender; grim determination never to cease striving until we can vote, travel, learn, work and enjoy in peace—all this, and yet with it and above it all the tramp of our armies over the blood-stained illies of France to show the world again what the loyalty and bravery of black men means.—The Crisis. In the final judgment it will be observed that the condemnation comes to those who did it not. Men are not condemned for murder, lying, thieving and adultery, but because they did not the plain duties of life. This includes not only the sinner, but the professing and non-acting professor as well. Possession and not profession saves. LOOK! WHAT THE GOVERNMENT HAS GIVEN US. GOVERN YOUR-SELVES ACCORDINGLY. 1. No publisher of a weekly, semi-weekly, or tri-weekly newspaper shall use in its production any paper except newsprint. 2. No publisher may continue subscriptions after three months after date of expiration, unless subscriptions are renewed and paid for. 3.

M. C. A., or K. of C.; except to the Library of Congress, and other libraries which will agree to bind for permanent keeping; except to Government departmental libraries which use said publications in their work; and except for similar reasons. 10. No publisher shall offer premiums with his publication unless a price is put upon the premium for sale separately, and the combined price is at least 75 per cent of the sum of the individual prices. 11.

No newspaper may be established during the period of the war, except those for which arrangements had been made and plants purchased previous to the issuing of this order, or unless it can be shown that a new newspaper is a necessity. A sworn statement will be required from each publisher on November 1 as to how many of these rules have been put into effect by him, and what results in the matter of reducing paper consumption have been obtained. Yours very truly. THOMAS E. DONNELLEY, Chief Pulp and Paper Section. August 22, 1918. OVER HERE Over here—over here— We will serve, we will serve—over here. While our boys are fighting, are bleeding, dying. We'll be striving—over here. So prepare—say a prayer, Do our BEST—do our BEST and be ware, We'll be faithful and we'll be hopeful. And we won't give up 'till there's FREEDOM EVERYWHERE. —Words by Frank Bristol OUR CRUSE OF OIL. A QUARTER IS ONE CENT MORE THAN A MARK. THE YANK IS WORTH TWO OF THE HUN: It also appears to me that when prejudices persist obstinately it is the fault of nobody so much as those who make a point of proclaiming them superable as an excuse for never joining in an attempt to remove them. Any prejudice whatever will be insurmountable if those who do not share in it themselves truckle to it and flatter it and accept it as a law of nature.—John Stuart Mills. Never think of yourself as the victim of circumstances. To do so is to make yourself the victim of every adversity that you may encounter. Know that you have the power to change and control circumstances. Exercise that power and soon things will begin to change for the better—Efficiency "No other race, black or white, when bound as they were to the rack, so seldom stooped to grieving. No other race when free again forgot the past and proved them men so noble in forgiving." From the landing of Christopher Columbus to the Altruistic President, Woodrow Wilson, no Negro has been tried for treason or punished for disloyalty. What a sublime record! We are today a race of About Ben Adheima, in constant loyal service to our brother in white, even if ingratitude be our recompense and broken promises our reward. 1021-21st St. Phone Champa 752 EARNEST HOWARD Carpenter and New and Repair Work Materi arpenter and Contractor Repair Work. .

Lightner, Supreme Clerk of the American Woodmen, has just returned to his office from an exten. sive trip, visiting many of the local organizations in the north and east ‘He expresses himself as being highly pleased with the progress of the work and the outlook for future develop- ment. His {itinerary took him as far north as Cleveland, Ohio, and as far east as New York; a few engagements were filled in the south which took him as far into that section as Musko- gee, Oklahoma. He expresses him- sett as being particularly impressed with general labor conditions. He states: “Never before in the history of our country has the Negro been in the position to demand and receive such wages for his labor, and rightly so, as he is now receiving for both skilled and unskilled labor, and while there are many who are not profiting from the extraordinary compensation that they are receiving, spending their earnings for non-cssentials and real luxuries, there are many others who are accumulating bank accounts, in- vesting in War Savings Stamps and Liberty Bonds, and purchasing homes, It is very noteworthy that the major- ity in this class are southerners who have migrated to the eastern and northern cities, and in this regard the average southerner is making a far more favorable impression upon the northerner than his friends, and par- ticularly his enemies, had contem- plated and predicted that he would make. And as such, the southerner js receiving a more cordial welcome than was extended to him in the be- ginning. In the light of such evi- dence we cannot but feet that the southerner is becoming a permanent and positive factor in the citizenship of his recently adopted homes.” Mr, C. M, White, “the American Woodman man,” took his departure almost {mmediately upon the arrival 6f Mr. Lightner. He will be gone up- til the close of the present year on a tour of the Southern and Eastern Campa.

Gentlemen: | Concerning the incident which oc- curred at the Short-Line depot. which gave rise to some complaints by Col. ored recruits, I desire, on behalf of the Committee on Public Safety, to say that an investigation was made of the occurrence, and the committee reported that while there was no in- tention on the part of the iadies of the canteen unit to discriminate against Colored men or to treat them discourteously, it appears that per: haps the Colored boys may have con: sidered that they had some reason for | feeling that they did not receive just the consideration to which they were entitled. However, the committee wishes the Colored’ people to under- stand that none of the workers in any of the war activities desire to be in any way unfair or unjust to the Colored boys, for we realize that they are offering their lives for their coun- try as all our soldier boys are doing, and we want the Colored people to feel that we appreciate the patriotism of the Colored soldiers and that in the future everything will be done to avold, if possible, any misunderstand- ings or unpleasantness, and we trust that the Colored people will take this expression of our feeling in the spirit in which it fs offered.

Will you send into our office the meeting nights and places of your lodge together with the list of your grand officers and the names of your presiding officer and secretary. We will correct our lodge directory with your assistance. Life has its dry places. Truth is always straightforward. Patience is bitter but its fruit is sweet. The cross is the measure of a man's worth. At bottom, man is an animal; midway he is a citizen; at the top he is consciously divine. We look to politicians for reform when it must begin in our hearts. Human actions can be modified to one extent, but human nature can never be changed. The genius of preaching is truth in personality. Mighty is the written word of God, but the Word never conquered until it was made flesh. 一 Impulsiveness i not always to be deplied. The right kind of an impulsive man is the one who acts at once on his impulses to do the right thing. When the whole life is shot through with the purpose of full obedience, then the slavery of practicing enlarges into the freedom of preaching out of a full-orbed life. Those who know most know best that the devil presents himself as the angel of light, and that sin, in its most seductive form, arrays itself in the garb of pleasure. He who follows the devil's lurid light, will find before long that ruin will follow close upon the heels of self-indulgence, and sorrow will become the ghost of joy.

HOME FOLKS URGED TO KEEP FAITH WITH "YANKS" BY CONTINUED SAVING "A Sword, a Spade and a Thought Should Never Be Allowed to Rust." This was part of the wise philosophy of the women in Irish folk lore, and it is now rich in war-time symbolism. That the Allied sword is not being permitted to rust is evidenced in the recent victories on the western front. Firearms are bright and shining, and the enemy is on the run. There must be no relaxing of the military program. American soldiers must be kept going in a steady stream that the Allied forces may push on to a quicker victory. These men must be fed. The civilian's spade must not rust. The greater our accomplishment in putting American soldiers in the European battlefield the greater is the civilian responsibility to keep their bodies fit and their spirits buoyed. American agriculture has had a banner year. The patriotic response of the farmers coupled with favorable weather conditions has increased enormously the cereal production so that all fear of famine has been removed. Equally patriotic has been the response in the planting of war gardens. Recent reports on the planting for 1918 show, 5,285,000 food plots or an increase over last year of 51 per cent. The estimated value of these food products is $25,000,000, or 50 per cent increase over last year. This is no time, however, to relax either in production or saving. This year's bountiful harvest may be followed by a correspondingly poor one next year. More men will gradually leave the fields for the army, and the reaction will be felt at next year's harvest. Now is the time to prepare for this by keeping up the conservation program and building up a surplus for possible leaner days ahead. Equal in importance to the sword and spade is to keep the thought of the American people free from rust. The collective thought of the nation must be pitched on a high place and concentrated on the one goal—a conclusive peace. A year ago last April America sent word that she was coming. And she has made good. Her men are there in rapidly increasing numbers and the allied fighters now know that her sword will not be allowed to rust. The morale of both soldiers and civilians is based largely on being well fed. That America is ready and willing to share her food was shown in the wheat saving last year. She not only decreased her own consumption to meet the European demands, but she increased her production of all cereals. America's sword and spade have injected new hope, and the thoughts of the American people must not now be allowed to rust. Europe has faith in us, and we must maintain this faith SAVING STILL NEEDED IF NEW FOOD PROGRAM IS TO BE A SUCCESS "During the coming year, America must ship to Europe 15,000,000 tons of food stuffs." With this announcement, Herbert Hoover, federal food administrator, places on the American people a responsibility greater than any before. The 50-50 substitute rulings have been relaxed, the erstwhile ban upon beef products has been lessened—and yet Americans must send 15,000,000 tons of food next year to her allies. This gigantic program means that every man, woman and child who is for Liberty against Tyranny, must make his eating, and his buying as sane and saving as possible, and keep the consumption of vital food stuffs in America down to the lowest point. The relaxation of the stricter rules is not meant to lower the bars so that boarding or excessive consumption is allowable. It is simply to relieve consumers from rules which worked a certain amount of hardship, but which were absolutely necessary during the wheat crisis of a few months ago. The food administration still reserves the right to commander any or all flour consumers may have on hand should the need arise—as it did in the spring of 1917. It is hoped that consumers will realize that out of the great harvest this year, a reserve supply of food must be built if future short crops and decreased labor are to be discounted and made harmless. "The food administration will expect every patriotic American to hold flour now purchased in trust, so to speak, for future use of the government, and to keep that flour in such a manner that it will not be damaged or ruined," declared T. B. Stearns, food administrator for Colorado, in a recent statement. OUR SAVED FOOD FED THE ALLIES Food Administrator Writes President America Conserved 141,- 000,000 Bushels Wheat. Meat and Fat Shipments Increased by 844,600,000 Pounds. Conservation measures applied by the American people enabled the United States to ship to the Allied peoples and to our own forces oversursed 141,000,000 bushels of wheat and 844,600,000 pounds of meat during the past year, valued in all at $1,400,000,000. This was accomplished in the face of a serious food shortage in this country, bespeaking the wholeheartedness and patriotism with which the American people have met the food crisis abroad. Food Administrator Hoover, in a letter to President Wilson, explains how the situation was met. The voluntary conservation program fostered by the Food Administration enabled the piling up of the millions of bushels of wheat during 1917-18 and the shipment of meat during 1917-18. The total value of all food shipments to Allied destinations amounted to $1,400,000,000, ah this food being bought through or in collaboration with the Food Administration. These figures are all based on official reports and represent food exports for the harvest year that closed June 30, 1918. The shipments of meats and fats (including meat products, dairy products, vegetable oils, etc.) to Allied destinations were as follows: Fiscal year 1916-17...2,166,500,000 lbs Fiscal year 1917-18...3,011,100,000 lbs Our slaughterable animals at the beginning of the last fiscal year were not appreciably larger than the year before and particularly in hogs; they were probably less. The increase in shipments is due to conservation and the extra weight of animals added by our farmers. The full effect of these efforts began to bear their best results in the last half of the fiscal year, when the exports to the Allies were 2,133,100,000 pounds, as against 1,266,500,000 pounds in the same period of the year before. This compares with an average of 801,000,000 pounds of total exports for the same half years in the three-year pre-war period. In cereals and cereal products reduced to terms of cereal bushels our shipments to Allied destinations have been: Fiscal year 1916-17...259,900,000 bushels Fiscal year 1917-18...340,800,000 bushels Increase ..... 80,900,000 bushels Of these cereals our shipments of the prime breadstuffs in the fiscal year 1917-18 to Allied destinations were: Wheat 131,000,000 bushels and of rye 13,900,000 bushels, a total of 144,900,000 bushels. The exports to Allied destinations during the fiscal year 1916-17 were: Wheat 135,100,000 bushels and rye 2,300,000 bushels, a total of 137,400,000 bushels. In addition some 10,000,000 bushels of 1917 wheat are now in port for Allied destinations or en route thereto. The total shipments to Allied countries from our last harvest of wheat will be therefore, about 141,000,000 bushels, or a total of 154,900,000 bushels of prime breadstuffs. In addition to this we have shipped some 10,000,000 bushels to neutrals dependent upon us, and we have received some imports from other quarters. "This accomplishment of our people in this matter stands out even more clearly if we bear in mind that we had available in the fiscal year 1916-17 from net carry-over and as surplus over our normal consumption about 200,000,000 bushels of wheat which we were able to export that year without trenching on our home loaf," Mr. Hoover said. "This last year, however, owing to the large failure of the 1917 wheat crop, we had available from net carry-over and production and imports only just about our normal consumption. Therefore our wheat shipments to Allied destinations represent approximately savings from our own wheat bread. "These figures, however, do not fully convey the volume of the effort and sacrifice made during the past year by the whole American people. Despite the magnificent effort of our agricultural population in planting a much increased acreage in 1917, not only was there a very large failure in wheat, but also the corn failed to mature property, and our corn is our dominant crop. "I am sure." Mr. Hoover wrote in concluding his report, "that all the millions of our people, agricultural as well as urban, who have contributed to these results should, feel a very definite satisfaction that in a year of universal food shortages in the northern hemisphere all of those people joined together against Germany have come through into sight of the coming harvest not only with wealth and strength fully maintained, but with only temporary periods of hardship. "It is difficult to distinguish between various sections of our people—the homes, public entailing places, food trades, urban or agricultural populations—in assessing credit for these results, but no one will deny the dominant part of the American women." A hoarder is a man who is more interested in getting his bite than in giving his bit. CHURCH DIRECTORY. Shorter A. M. E. Cor. 23rd Street and Washington Avenue, Rev. C. A.

District No. 2—Homer Davis, 608 Northwest; James A. Harrison, 1219 West Eighth; Wilson H. Peterson. I believe in the United States of America as a government of the people, by the people, for the people whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign Nation of many sovereign states; a perfect Union, one and inseparable, established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes. I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws; to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies. I go to fight for my country and I trust that those who remain behind will be as true as we who have gone. If I do not return look after my niece. (Snooks) Wm. Goff (at Union Station) (Spooks) Wm. Goff (at Union Station) Good Bye—Good Luck. I go to put into execution what I have learned in the public schools of Denver. I go to learn how to fight and be fought. Whatever my fate, soon or late, uphold the standard of our race. Wipe all discriminations from the City of Denver and State of Colorado. My folks feel bad; visit them often; cheer them up and encourage the relatives and friends of all of your "drafted boys." I bid Old Denver Good Bye, Good Luck and hope I will safely return. Remember my family. DEMOCRACY A DEMOCRACY IS FOUNDED UP ON EQUAL RIGHTS, EQUAL DUTIES AND EQUAL RESPONSIBILITIES FOR ALL CITIZENS—EQUAL RIGHTS TO ALL; SPECIAL PRIVILEGES TO NONE. THAT IS REAL DEMOCRACY. NEGROES DO YOUR FULL DUTY Buy service flags to honor the service of your relatives. Let every Negro display and wear in some form the colors of the United States as a token to honor our drafted boys. If we are going to be patriotic, let us be so. If we are going to do the thing let us do it with all our heart mind and soul—just 100% American that's all. Attend the patriotic gatherings and follow the boys to the trains. Encourage and boost them. Whenever any man cares enough about you or your organization that he is willing to subscribe or does subscribe his aid and support, he deserves more than any other man who "gives you lip service and hot air." We know that our candidate, Mr. Phipps, for the L. L. Senate, and Secretary of State Noland, are members of the N. A. A. C. P.

Wife, she is set and determined to name him after her side of the house, and I'm sticking and hanging for him to be named after one of my knn.

A young ensign, acting as school teacher on the battleship Texas, says Philadelphia Public Ledger, asked the question: "What are the two principal parts of a sentence?" He expected, of course, to get the answer, "Subject and predicate." The old "salt" who was called on scratched his head in perplexity and at last replied: "Solitary confinement and bred and water."

Phone Mai 7412 Your Job Printing Solicited One of the most amusing tricks in fireworks is the serpent's egg trick, where a little pellet when lighted turns into a horrible snake, many, many times the size of the pellet. How awinspiring it is to the youngsters! Most people have no idea what in the world causes the snake to appear. The explanation is simple. Mercury sulphocyanid burns with a voluminous ash. The little pellet is nothing more than some mercury sulphocyanid. The heat causes the ash to move off so quickly from the burning pellet that it writhes and distorts itself into the shape of a miniature snake. Radium in Sea Salt. Samples of sea salt collected during a recent voyage in the Pacific and subantarctic regions have been examined for their radium content. The amount of radium was found to be negligibly small compared with values that have been found in others collected near land, and this result is in accordance with the prevailing view that the radium content of sea salt diminishes with increase of distance THE NEW YORKER Don't Pay a Premium for Tailored Apparel WHEN you view the volume of values in the Globe woolen line and then get down to dollars and cents you will appreciate the real economy of "NEEDLE MOLDED CLOTHES Tailored to Measure by THE GLOBE TAILORING CO., CINCINNATI You will discover that you can obtain genuine custom-made clothes, fashioned and fitted to your intimate inches at prices no higher than for ready-mades.

My blood has drenched the battlefield and still you trod me down; the Red, White and Blue in my charge has never trailed the ground. All I desire, America, is what I've got I've earned—the right to live to freedom in its fullest sense and terms. They why should I be scorned, denied the right of man—my father bled and died that the cause of freedom stand. Am I a thing, America, to be despised and crushed? Your Justice to me, America, with shame this land should blush. Imprisoned, lynched and burned on slightest provocation. Oh, what a disgrace to you, a so-called Christian Nation. A man who says I'm a Christian, yet his fellowman despise and love one whom he has never seen. God says he lies, "Do unto others as you would have them to you." What a blessed land, America, if this were only true? There are those, America, whom my right to live denied, who would not let me live in peace or let me honorably die. Branded as a rapist, a black-hearted lie, a subterfuge to cover their crime, with impunity the law defy. Let the law take its course and justice go color blind and punish men not by color but punish for the crime. Prove them guilty beyond a doubt, their guilt not theory, but fact—the innocent has oftimes suffered for an alleged criminal act. The mob is composed of criminals, brutes, fiends incarnate, not true American citizens and should suffer a criminals fate. I condemn not all, America, but my true white friends are few, who have the courage of their convictions to plead my cause with you. Afraid of political death or be socially ostracised, if they encourage or my true worth recognize. You summoned me, America, to do a citizens part, me, America, to do a citizens me, I come with all my heart, I my do it, America, and do it with a will, just as I did in "63, Carrish and San Juan Hill. You cannot doubt my loyalty, the trust I never betrayed, the death stared me in the face, cowardice I never displayed. You owe me something, America, and that a citizen protection. I've proved to you that I'm a man regardless of my complexion. Tho a dark skin beneath a ragged jacket, my heart with patriotism throbs, even the ringing in mine ears, a howling, cowardly mob, who would persecute, hound, oppress me, the door of advancement close, while I stand ready, life in hand, to oppose your acknowledged foe. To my black brother fight on, answer every call, there is One above who pays, who sees the sparrow fall. Sees every injustice, every cruel blow, to Him you shall answer, America, and reap what you sow. Unhand, unchain me, loose my shackled feet, that I may fight life's battle, mine enemies defeat. The dearest thing on earth to you, the dearest thing to me is what our father's bled and died for—freedom and liberty—Paul Leon Caldwell, Spanish War Veteran.
