Gallant 92d Division Plays Big Role in Advance on Metz. By Ralph W. Tyler. ARTICLE VIII Somewhere in France, Nov. 10.—In the battle raging today in the American advance toward Metz, the 92d Division, one of the Colored combat divisions over here, played a big role. Not only was its black infantry and machine gun units up at the front—in the thickest of it, but its artillery, the 167th Brigade of field artillery, was on the line, behaving like veterans, laying down a barrage for the infantry that was marvelously effective, and they established a reputation which has been made by but few, among French, British or Americans, of laying down a barrage that did not entrap, and fatally so, their own men. This has been a glorious day for the black soldiers. The fighting is still on, and I have just received the intimation that the casualty toll may be heavy, depressingly so, for Metz, and the sector around about it, is strongly fortified by the Germans, and resistance determined. Metz is considered by experts to be the strongest fortified city in the world, almost, if not so, as impregnable as the fortifications of the Dardanelles. But the Americans are hammering away at it, and only the signing of the armistice terms, by the Germans, by 11 o'clock tomorrow, will save Metz from falling. Even as it is, Colored soldiers are now on German soil. The husky invaders include the Colored soldiers of the 92d Division, embracing the "Buffaloes" or 367th, the 365th and 366th regiments of infantry and the 167th Brigade of Field Artillery, composed of the 349th, 350th and 351st regiments and, the 317th Trench Mortar Battery, and all are conducting themselves with a fortitude and valor that have won for them high praise from their commanding officers every time they have been put to any test. WESTERN UNIVERSITY. Lillian Hatcher. Our football boys attended the game between Lincoln High and Lincoln Institute. They reported an enjoyable evening....On Monday last the Lincoln Institute eleven downed the Western University Soldier eleven to the tune of 21-7. The result was a surprise as all were confident of victory for the khaki boys....The Training Detachment, acting upon orders for demobilization, left Western University Tuesday, the men departing for their homes in Missouri and Kansas....Prof. C. B. Hosmer of Tuskegee addressed the Western University Forum last Sunday evening....Professors Benson and Burlong of the Lincoln Institute faculty were attedants upon our chapel services Monday and brought greetings from our sister institution in Missouri....Several delegates to the Wyandotte School Convention were Chapel visitors last Thursday and gave helpful and highly inspiring advice, especially along the line of reforms in Sunday School presentation. Among those present were Mr. S. V. Haynes, the Rev. Mr. Phenel and Secretary J. the Rev. Mr. Caswell. The December Rhetoricals were given last Friday evening in th auditorium of the Studio Building. A marked increase in the attendance of community friends was noted, the house being filled, thus evidencing the already growing interest of the community in these monthly programs. Each participant acquitted himself creditably. A feature of the program was the second part—a playlet entitled "The Bantu Chieftain" written by Prof. Caswell W. Crews. The play deals with the pride, the achievement of the proud Bantu tribes of Africa and depicts their possession of courage by reason of which the chieftain commits suicide rather than be taken captive and brought to American shores. The part of the chieftain was played exceptionally well by Mr. Wilson Green. Mr. John H. Martin in the role of Langton and Mr. Wilbur Washington as Burke, both English slave-traders, parted well their parts. A good supporting cast of slaves and poor whites completed the company.

Kansas City is rapidly earning the reputation of being the most notorious and most poorly governed city in this country. It should not be. It is sincerely hoped that the young Negro men being discharged in such large numbers from the army will at once seek profitable employment and not do anything that will bring either to themselves or the race disrepute. The Sun is in receipt of a letter from Mr. Robert M. Austin stating that he had been accepted as music director of the Y. M. C. A. department, at New York City. The coming of Dr. Burris A. Jenkins, the distinguished preacher and war correspondent, to Allen Chapel next Sunday night will doubtless bring together one of the largest semblages ever gathered in that historic edifice and that they will be magnificently entertained can be proven by all those who had the pleasure of hearing the distinguished scholar and orator on his previous visit to this church a year ago. The dinner tendered a large number of the Negro business and professional men in the cafeteria of Lincoln High School last Wednesday night for the purpose of discussing the feasibility of organizing a Negro bank was largely attended and the proposition was earnestly discussed by those present. At the conclusion of the dinner, about $5,000.00 was pledged to the consummation of this most desirable project. Other meetings will be held in the near future to give opportunity for an addition of subscriptions to stock. DR. ROBERT R. MOTON GOES TO FRANCE. Will Do Morale Work Among Colored Troops "Over There," at Request of President Wilson and Secretary Baker. Washington, D. C., Dec. 2.—Dr. Robert R. Motor, Principal of Tuskegee Institute, has gone to France at the request of President Wilson and Secretary of War Baker, to do morale work among the Colored troops now stationed "over there." With the tension of combat relaxed, it is the usual disposition of all armies to fall into excesses of various kinds. Dr. Motor will visit all the centers where numbers of supply troops, stevedore regiments, depot brigades, labor battalions and combat troops are located, speaking to them and urging in every way that they observe the good name they have won on the battlefields and in the service in France, that they may not furnish the slightest cause for unfavorable comment or adverse criticism before they return to America. Dr. Motor carried with him Letters of introduction to the highest officers of the American Expeditionary Forces and to the American Ambassador at Paris. He was accompanied by Mr. Nathan Hunt, traveling secretary, and Mr. Lester A. Walton, managing editor of the New York Age. The party sailed on the United States transport. "Orizaba" Sunday, December 1, at 2 o'clock. On the same transport, Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, editor of The Crisis Magazine, also took passage. He will represent The Crisis. Dr. Motor and party will be away for four to six weeks and will have full opportunity to render splendid service to the Colored troops, and the Government by the good work he will do among these soldiers of the Republic. Mr. Emmett J. Scott, Special Assistant to the Secretary of War, accompanied the party to New York City and supervised all of the arrangements incidental to their passage.

Last Wednesday when Miss Josephine Pinyon called up Mrs. Emma Vaughan and informed her that she would be right out to visit her and the family, it was indeed very comforting. Miss Pinyon who is field secretary of the Y. W. C. C., being on the field at the time of the death of the late Mr. Eugene Edward Vaughan did not receive the telegram informing her of his death until after the interment and therefore was not present at the funeral. She visited several of the most exclusive and artistic floral shops of Kansas City making a choice of a beautiful hand painted basket containing the choicest of his favorite flowers which she placed on his grave in the Woodlawn cemetery. A photograph was taken of the flowers. It was with much regret that the season did not permit her to plant growing vines, etc., as she desired, but she has aranged for such to be done in the spring. Miss Pinyon's visit was purely to pay homage to the deceased. Through the late Mr. Eugene Edward Vaughan she was regarded as one of the family's closest friends. COLORED LAWYERS ORGANIZE The Mutual Benefit of the Profession, And to Be Better Prepared to Safeguard the Citizenship and Constitutional Rights of the Race During the Reconstruction Period the Reason. At the offices of Lawyer Booker, 516 Minnesota avenue, Kansas City, Kan.. on the 3rd inst. there assembled some of the leading Colored lawyers of the two Kansas Citys and perfected an organization to be known as the Inter-City Colored Lawyers Club, the purpose of which is to create a more fraternal spirit and feeling among the Colored practitioners, and to uphold the standards of the legal profession in general, also to bring into the folds that portion of Negro patronage that's now going to white lawyers. The by-laws also provide for a campaign of education through public meetings and otherwise for the instruction of Colored people in their constitutional and 'citizenship rights and how to defend them. This club is not meant to take the place of the State Bar Association now composed of white and colored lawyers, they especially reserve their rights to become members thereof. This is just a private affair between the Colored practicing attorneys of the two Kansas Citys. The following were elected officers: L. A. Knox, 1418 East 18th street, President; Forrest B. Anderson, 529 State avenue, Kansas side, Vice President; D. E. Henderson, 32 Stubs Building, Kansas side, Treasurer; Guy J.

Gleed, Astwood, Allen, Crews, Hueston, Logan, Revs. Alphin and Osborne, Profs. Coleman and Harrison, and at the conclusion subscriptions to the amount of nearly $5,000.00 were taken.

Algeria possesses some 70 or 80 flour mills, scattered throughout the three departments of Algiers, Constantine and Oran. These mills have a total of 6,000 horsepower, employ between 1,000 and 1,300 workmen, and handle daily about 1,500 metric tons of hard and soft wheat, or approximately 400,000 metric tons per annum. There are also a large number of small, primitive establishments in Algeria, which tend to disappear in competition with modern equipment. Earnestness Welcome One gets very tired of chatter sometimes. And when someone comes who is thoughtful, who is earnest, who talks that he may reveal something worth while, because he has some treasure through which the world may profit, then what a difference. How the mind throws off its staleness and freshens under the wind that cuts, maybe, as it heals. How the soul refreshes itself, how the heart takes courage and the spirit rises to meet the message.—Er KANSAS CITY. KAN. By Mrs. Eiffe Grant Hardy. The entertainment given by the Sewing Circle of the Metropolitan Temple proved to be quite a success. The autograph album quilt brought a neat sum and was presented to the pastor and Mrs. Holmes. Mrs. A. D. Humes, 2116 N. 3rd street, celebrated her 64th birthday anniversary Sunday. A nice crowd was present and a number of useful presents were received. The City Mission Board will meet Tuesday, December 17, at the Mt. Zion Baptist Church, 4th and Virginia avenue. All ministers and missionary workers are requested to be present. T. Knapper, Pres.

Beware of this species. —That two little girls in a South Side neighborhood had a pet dog and each little girl played with the other little girl's dog whenever she pleased. One day recently somebody bought a new collar for one of the little pets and not for the other. Now both little girls dislike each other.

Mrs. Webb wants the people to read St. John 5th chapter, 39th verse; St. Matthew 5th chapter 18th verse; James 10th chapter 1st verse; 1st Peter 2d chapter 21st verse. Read carefully. She has been called by the power of God to deliver this message. A NEGRO GIRL KILLED TWO. Lula Sounders, 3 17-year-old Negro girl, is held by the Kansas side police on a charge of murder. Yesterday, according to the police, she shot and killed William Beasley, her step father, and Charles Mitchell, her sweetheart. The shooting of Mitchell was accidental, the girl told the police. She claimed she shot Beasley to protect her mother from abuse. The Negroes of Kansas City and the Western States are preparing to celebrate the three hundredth anniversary of the coming of their race to America, by giving here in Convention Hall an exposition of their accomplishments, on January 29, 1919. A local committee has been appointed to take charge of the arrangements of which Rev. Wm. H. Thomas is chairman, and it will be assisted by persons from the various large cities of the West. A publicity committee composed of Nelson C. Crews, Thomas Kennedy and C. A. Franklin, and a committee on exhibits with Rev. F. Jesse Peck as chairman, will assist the executive committee. The celebration is fortunate in having here at hand several groups of trained workers who will take the lead in the preparation of the exhibits. Rev. Peck is the president of one such group, Western University, at Quindaro, Kan. Women's work will play a prominent part in the exhibition. Both because of the new appreciation of the value of women in community life, and because Negro women have long contributed to industry, far more than other women, according to the U. S. census, this feature alone will justify the exhibition. The celebration idea is born of a resolution adopted by the bench of bishops of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, and the one to be held here will be representative of all the states in the Fifth Episcopal District of that Church. They are all the trans-Missouri states and their presiding bishop is Rt. Rev. H. B. Parks. Rev. J. F. GRIFFIN, D.

The pastor called on Mrs. Eliza Finley, one of the evangelists of St. John, who is a good worker to preach Sunday one week ago. She took for her text "Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me," St. John 14:1. The same was handled with power and understanding; pleasing all present; we hope to hear Sister Finley again. Our pastor is broad and is willing to give everybody a square deal. Madame J. C. Bell, the pastor's wife, performs at the piano at each service with much grace and ease, being a great help to the choir.

The Young Women's Missionary Circle is making their quarterly and annual reports. They are working for a great entertainment in a masked social at Mrs. Harriett Adams, 1702 East 28th street, December 19. Each number on the program will be a masked one. The Alid Society has held some very profitable meteings with Mrs. J. H. Bryant, 2459 Highland avenue, and Mrs. Mattie Casaway, 1901 East 25th street. Their Thanksgiving dinner excelled all their previous dinners and was a financial success. They have paid their note for the pavement in front of the churchi and is prepared to make the best annual report in their history. The attendance and devotion in the regular Lord's Day services were not up to the average but were indicative of greater interest. The choir, although greatly hindered by sickness, is again getting themselves together and rendered an appreciative service. The ministers continue to let the Book talk, therefore the message is right, timely and practical, but not always popular or obeyed. One made the good confession and one reclaimed last Sunday. The offerings have fully met the officials' expectations and they are hopeful of making their best financial report for the fiscal year with all debts paid. The ministers next Sunday at 11 a. m. will give the third of a series of sermons on the "Officiary and Polity of the Church taught in the New Testament." All sermons are for the public.
