CREWS, KANSAS CITY, MO., Grand Master of Masons of Missouri and Jurisdiction and Editor and Owner of the Kansas City Sun. MORNING. The sun rose with the brightest splendor, its rays seemed to skip lightly through the bee's heavy foliage, among which the birds twittered and tripped gleefully, warbling the sweetest songs unto heaven. Nearby one could hear the soft rippling of a stream feeling its way through the wild meadow and losing itself in a deep valley beyond, all around nature vying with herself, making this the gloriest of morns. Woody dells—hills and hollows manifesting their glories and joys unto God. Every haunt, whether sylvan or no, possessed a sweet fragrance wafted softly by gentle zephyrs. —STARKS. --- M.

August 2, after a very successful three weeks' encampment. The attendance was large, excelling any previous year. The mammoth parade led by King Menelik, wife and baby, was a very attractive feature. Both churches outdid themselves in point of hospitality. The singing of both chors, Allen under the leadership of Prof. Jackson, and Ebenezer under the leadership of Miss Eiffle Grant, were features to add much interest and enjoyment to the carnival. Many beautiful selections were rendered, and while all enjoyed themselves in the merriment of carnival, the spiritual side was not neglected, for during the carnival six powerful sermons were preached by the eminent pulpitarian, the Rev. Dr. William H. Thomas, pastor of Allen Chapel, and the energetic and soul-shrirving divine, the Rev. W. C. Williams, pastor of Ebenezer. Many new additions were received into both churches. One of the popular features of the THE GRAND MASTER OF MISSOU KANSAS, GRAND MASTER J. L. T. CORNERSTONE OF THE NEW $10 carnival was the Queen Contest, which took place Friday night. The grounds were crowded to the utmost capacity by persons anxious to take part in this most important event, which resulted in Ebenezer being victorious. Miss Birdie Taylor of Allen Chapel and Miss Lotte Watkins of Ebenezer were the contestants. Miss Watkins received 4,522 votes, amounting to $226.10, and Miss Taylor received 4,462 votes, which amounted to $223.10. The Ebenezer crowd went wild with enthusiasm and the crowning did not take place until Saturday night, at which time the parade was headed by the queen of the carnival of last year and the newly elected queen, who were in a phaeton beautifully decorated and drawn by the "Turks," who afforded much merchant to the visitors. After the parade the new queen was lifted from her carriage to the platform, and placed in the chair of honor. The crowning ceremonies were performed by the Rev. Dr. William H. Thomas, who did so in a very befitting manner. His speech was in keeping with that splendid personality so pre-eminent in him. He said that nothing could afford him more pleasure than to place the crown upon the victor's head, and that it brought to his mind that at the end of life, Jesus, our Saviour, would give us the crown of life. He spoke of the stars in the crown, ask --- HARRY H. WALKER, HARRY H. WALKER, the Genial and Popular Treasurer of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Missouri. AUGUSTUS TURNER DEAD.

The Emancipation Celebration at Marysville last Wednesday, August 5, was the greatest ever held in this beautiful and prosperous little city. And there were more Colored people in attendance than ever before in the history of Marysville. An excursion of more than two hundred came from Atchison, Kas., and St. Joseph, Mo., while not fewer than a hundred came from Omaha and the surrounding towns in Iowa. More than 5,000 white people were present on the grounds. The Colored people were actually lost in the crowd. Music was furnished by the famous K. P. Band of Omaha, Neb., the best NEG band in America outside of the Eighth Regiment. Addresses were delivered by Dr. M. O. Ricketts, St. Joseph; Hon. C. F. McCaffrey of Marysville and Hon. N. C. Crews, Grand Master of Masons of Kansas City. All kinds of entertainment was in evidence, including climbing the greased pole, foot races, sack races, and a thrilling ball game between the white team of Marysville and the Colored team of Atchison. An exhibition drill was given by the Palatine Guardes of Atchison, Kas., in the evening, on the public square, after which the K. P. Band, under the leadership of Prof. Dan Desdunes, the most brilliant and versatile composer and director of the race, which evoked storms of applause from the thousands who had gathered in the public square to listen to what was pronounced by all the most pleasing program ever rendered in that city. The committee consisting of Frank Smart, Oliver Vance and Jas. Palmer, deserve much credit for this brilliant and successful celebration. They expect to celebrate next year on a larger scale.

HERRIFORD, Prince of Parliamentarians Editor of the Masonic Column of the Kansas City Sun and Principal of one of the largest schools in Kansas City, Mo. MASONIC Some of these days some brave Masons are going to get together and rewrite the burial ceremonies for each of the departments so as not only to shorten them, but to bring them into touch with modern spirit. Each ceremony appears to have been written without regard for any other and the higher the rank of the degree, the longer and more tedious are the ceremonies. They are positively tiresome, especially as they are usually carried out. There was a time when ceremonies were interesting to the public, but the time has passed. What formerly interested them now bores them and the demand for reforms will not be stilled much longer. Perhaps it would be better to carry out all the ceremonies in private, thus making a better showing of sincerity in our grief and eliminate the physical endurance features of our public appearances.

Golden Steam Dye Works 1605 EAST 18TH STREET When sending your Clothing to be cleaned and pressed have you ever realized, and every clean minded man would shudder with disgust at the thought, that the cloth use to press your suit had just previously been used to press the suit of a man suffering from Disease, Filthy Habits, etc.—the cloth in the interim being wet and wrung out in a pail of probably dirtier water, especially so toward the end of the day's work? OLD WAY OF PRESSING To overcome unsanitary methods we have installed an up-to-date Sanitary Steam Press. A garment that passes through this machine is disinfected, as no germs or microbes can exist under a temperature as high as the dry steam we inject. At the same time it removes any odor, takes away the grimy appearance, raises the nap, revives the colors and imparts to the garment that freshness desired by all dressers. 'THE HOFF-MAN' NEW WAY OF PRESSING We are Hatters, Tailors and Cleaners. No delay in getting your work. We do everything in our own shop. When you send us your work we do not have to disappoint or delay you, as our equipment is equal to anyone's. We specialize on quality and carefulness, for if it pleases you it pleases us.

The indications are that the grand sessions to be held in Keokuk, In., next month will be largely attended. As is usually the case the annual election of grand officers will be the predominating question in the minds of the majority and while it is regarded as the year for the big "Log Rolling," it is predicted that some important changes are being freely predicted. It will be the first grand session of the organization ever held out of the borders of the state and will probably be the last. As there is a pronounced sentiment against it even though the jurisdiction extends to other states. The Grand Temple has had the misfortune to lose their grand treasurer in the person of Mrs. Sallie Moore Haworth, by death, which occurred several weeks ago. The coming grand session will elect her successor and there will probably be several candidates and there are a large number of qualified members who are already being mentioned for the position. There are no indications at present of any change in the heads of either grand lodge or grand temple. The voting contest conducted by the board of management through the Search Light, the official organ, is now claiming the attention of many. Dr. J. H. Williams the grand medical director, is far in the lead and the indications are that he will drive back to Kansas City in the touring car offered by the board as first prize-Professional World. A.

We would like to see some of the Kansas City lodizes try the Wilkerson Lodge plan of collecting dues by plac: ing the Secretary In the ante-room and eollecting from the brethren as they enter for work, An assistant could take the proceedings of the lodge transactions in the meantime and much in the way of lectures and other esteric practice could be gone through as well. After all the mem- bers havé entered the room the Sec- retary comes in and reads his report ‘of dues received, ‘turning the money over to the Treasurer. This plan is so sensible that it seems a shortcom: ing to overlook its advantages.

What Kansas City loses in the death of Dr. J. M. Greenwood can only be appreciated by those who have watched the development of our school system under his direction. It was his well known policy that no discriminations should be made against the Negro schools in matters of equipment, salary schedules and other essentials. If poor teachers occasionally edged into the system it was due more to his sympathy and patience than to any lack of proper concern. Many owe their present standing as successful workers to the father-like interest taken in their progress by Dr. Greenwood. As a friend he was a strong partisan at all times and could be counted upon in sunshine and in shadow. His passing is sadly to be deplored by those who have so greatly profited by his generous views and unbiased judgment. The spectacle of organized opposition being made to the location of the Western Baptist College upon a site purchased for that purpose in an outlying district of this city, marks the zero of inconsistency. Our people are constantly being urged to lead intelligent religious lives, yet when decent facilities for such progress are being sought, opposition rises and the unchristian spirit of race hatred bursts in flame. If a settlement of rough Negroes with their buffet flats and rooming houses was about to be established in an exclusive neighborhood, there might be justifiable grounds for such opposition, but such is not the case. The school will carry with it an atmosphere of cleanliness as well as goddiness. Being a matter of statewide pride, it will be an institution of beauty and harmony. Its houses will be attractive and its grounds inviting. Undesirable people do not settle near a college, unless the black skin alone renders one objectionable. The new college site was chosen not for the advantages of its being near white people, but because it was as far away as possible from everybody and at the same time convenient to the city. It is promoted by earnest, christian men and women, who are striving with all their might and with great sacrifices to educate and christianize our people. So-called refined, fair, Christian people have met and solemnly vowed that the school must not come near them and that they will keep it away at any cost, not meaning that they will purchase the site as a last resort or that they will aid the hated people in search for a more acceptable location. We all know what 'any cost' means to the Negro haters. We knew what it meant out on Montgall avenue and in other parts of the city. No one has as yet come forward to speak for the cause of justice and right. Our friends are all silent before the nemesis of class injustice. The editorial columns of the big dallies are silent while the news columns parade every expression of scorn and contempt. MASONIC. It is to be regretted that the Masonic bodies of Kansas City have not taken up the idea of making an annual sermon display. It was argued strongly years ago and is now believed by many profanes that Masonry is a non-religious cult. Nothing would serve a better purpose in refuting such a misnomer than a proper service once each year. The Grand Lodge a few years ago went on record as endorsing the idea, and even suggested a day for the observance. In a few points in the jurisdiction the plan is followed with gratifying results. It is true that Masonry is a conservative art and has never depended upon any sort of vain show for holding its place in the public esteem, but it is also true that any unreasonable conservatism is calculated to work more harm than good and this seems to be a point whereupon the practical side might be very sensibly observed. Masonry is a strictly religious institution. The world should not only be told this, but it should be openly shown by a formal observance at least once a year. All bodies and branches of the craft, male and female, uniting in such a demonstration annually would not only serve to extol the cause of Christ, but would further exalt the glory of the oldest secret institution in the world.

Nelson, Mo., April 13, 1913. Dear Madam Dabney: I am writing you for a small order. I want you to please send by mail 3 bottles of shampoo, 3 boxes of hair grower and 2 boxes of pressing oil. I like the remedy just fine; I would not be without it for anything. I am using it on my little girl's hair; it seems to be helping it greatly. Kansas City, Mo., Jan. 20, 1913. Dear Madam Dabney: I am a mother of four girls. In trying to improve their hair I had tried several preparations, but none gave me good results until I used Madam Dabney's XXth Century Preparations. Their hair was thin, harsh and would fall out so that I dreaded to use a comb. Now their hair is growing nicely—does not fall out—has no dandruff—is soft and pretty. Three of these girls are attending Wendell Phillips School, Howard and Vine streets. Investigation will bear out my testimony. I would not be without the XXth Century Preparation in my house. MRS.

JOSEPH, MO., POSSESSING ONE OF THE CRACK DRILL TEAMS OF THE JURISDICTION. The Thirteenth Annual Session of the Grand Lodge, Knights of Pythias, NA. SA. E. A. A. & A., Jurisdiction of Missouri. Held in Columbia, Mo., July 28th to 31st, 1914, will go down in history as one of the most successful Grand Lodge sessions ever held in this state by this order, for the harmony that existed and for the precise and accurate reports of its financial officers, and the wise legislation enacted that will put this order in the foremost ranks of fraternal organization of this state for years to come. The reports of Grand Master of Exchequer Baker, shows a total collection from all sources of over thirty-seven thousand ($37,000) dollars. A schedule for the conducting of the Endowment or Insurance department of this order was adopted, which complies with the laws of the state of Missouri, and puts this department on a sounder basis than it has ever been before. Eighty-seven brother Knights have passed away since the last annual session of this Grand Lodge, for which there was paid to the dependent relatives of these deceased members over eighteen thousand ($18,000) dollars.

On Thursday night a grand ball was given at Columbia Hall, known as the largest hall in the interior of the state of Missouri, at which the Pythians and Calanithians tripped the light fantastic toe till the wee small hours of the morning.

Events transpiring every day make it more and more evident that the first permanent step toward the betterment of the Negroe's state in America must be his own getting together. So long as the rank and file continue to stand apart from their own leaders, traders and professionals, just so long will we be ignored as a factor in the republic. When we come to the point wherein we patronize and support our own mechanics, merchants and other enterprises, because they are ours and because we are willing to grow up as they grow, we shall come into our own and not until then. --- SIR WM.

A correspondent from southeast Missouri criticizes the Grand Masters for the infrequency of their visits to that section of the Masonic jurisdiction and we have heard similar criticisms of Grand Masters who have visited that section and asked that their expenses be paid for so doing. Lodges in southeast Missouri contain some of our best Masons but the matter of official visitations involves an item of cost which conscientious leaders hesitate to make. The southeast is an agricultural section and it is difficult in many cases to assemble the brethren during the working season without great inconvenience to them. There are several sides to the visitation question and most of the Masons realize this. The fact that other heads of societies make their annual pilgrimages and "cleanings" upon that section should have no bearing whatever upon the actions of the Grand Master of Masons. HERRIFORD. SIR GEO. JOHNSON, Past Eminent Commander of famous Emanuel Commandery and a live wire at all times. The midnight services held by the higher degrees of Masonry over the remains of deceased devotees are very impressive and proper, no doubt; but it does appear improper that the sorrowing family should be dragged out to such services at such hours, especially as the funeral services are to be held upon the following day to further tax the exhausted energies of the grief stricken ones. This looks somewhat like a too severe endurance test and it ought to be discontinued. There is no reason for the presence of the family at these services and they should be urged to stay at home. There is too much paganism about our funerals, too much morbidity and senseless demonstration.

NATIONAL NEGRO BUSINESS The Fifteenth Annual Meeting of the National Negro Business League will Be held at Muskogee, Oklahoma, Weduesday, Thursday and Priday, Av- gust 19, 20 and-21, 1914. The Oklahoma ‘State Negro Busl- ness League in co-operation with the Muskogee ‘Local Negro Business League has arranged a most com- prehensive program for the reception and entertainment of the delegates who may be present. Aside from the regular and most interesting sessions of the League itself, arrangements have been made for an Industrial Pa- rade on Thursday afternoon, August 20th, which shall embrace a large number of floats upon which will be represented the progress and indus- trial’ achievement of the Negroes of Oklahoma. ‘Thirty (30) full-blooded Seminole Indians in native and pic- turesque costumes are planning an entertainment at the Fair Grounds, following the Industrilal Parade on Thureday. On Friday afternoon, August 2st, the delegates will be given a view of the city. A live stock and agricul- tural exhibit, showing the great pos- sibilities of the’southwest section, will be open for the inspection of the dele: gates; also, on Friday evening, a Grand Banquet will be given in honor of the delegates. On Saturday, August 22, a special train will leave Muskogee for Boley, “Oklahoma, the largest and most pros ‘perous Negro city in the Unites |States. ‘The train will pass througt 'some of the richest agricultural lanc in the world much of which is ownes by Oklahoma colored citizens, o* Se SE _ Re ee eevee game WT: ‘League, the Southwestern Passenger Association has announced through its | chairman an intention to authorize an open rate of four cents a mile for the round-trip from all points in the territory of the Southwestern Passen- ger Association except Oklahoma, sell- | ing tickets August 16th to 18th, inclu- ‘sive with final return limit to reach joriginal starting point Augusta 31. | The Western Passenger Association ‘through its chairman also announces an intention to authorize an open rate of two cents a mile in each direction from points in Missouri and Kansas: to Muskogee and return, tickets to be sold on August 16th to August 18th, inclusive, with final return lmit to reach original starting point prior to midnight of August 31, 1914, | Application has also been made to the Southeastern Passenger Associa- tion embracing the states south of the Ob‘o and Potomac rivers, and east of ‘the, Mississippi river, for reduced rates, and these will most likely be | granted on the basis of four cents a | mile for the round trip. x | The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad j with headquarters in New York City is planning to provide for the trans- portation of delegates from the east- }ern territory—New York City, Phila- delphia, Wilmington, Baltimore and | Washington, and for all-eastern dele- | gates who plan to be present at the | meeting. A special Pullman Car will |e provided it enough delegates, sie. ay their intention of «aking the trip. Delegates will most likely be pres- ent at the coming meeting in larger numbers than erer before from the Southern and Southwestern States. It is expected also that the east will not be neglectful of its duty, consid- ering the fact that the Southern States have always been so largely represented at all of the meetings which have been held in the North and East. ‘The annual session of the affiliated organizations of the League will be held at the same time—The National Negro Bankers’ Association, The Na- tonal Negro Press Association, ‘The National Negro Funeral Directors’ As- sociation and the National Negro Bar Association, a group of the strongest organizations in the country among Negro people.
