ADVERTISE IT IN THE SUN See the Great Nazimova at Love's Theatre, April 6, 7 and 8 DR. THOMPKINS REPLIES TO MR. J. A. WILSON ON "THE SOLDIERS' PARADE." The indefinite information that comes from the War Department to those who entertain a body of soldiers, is one of the most difficult problems with which to deal; and adding to this the unreliability of the information from the railroad authorities, together with the necessary arrangements and the preparing, and the keeping of prepared food palatable, really makes the feat almost impossible—as all realized, who assisted in the recent welcome to our soldiers. Last week there appeared in your paper an article entitled "The Soldiers' Parade," which was a criticism of the parade of the last contingent of the 92d Division, which was the guest of the citizens of Kansas City. If a criticism is made, it should be done after careful investigation and due consideration. The majority of the contingent that we just entertained were boys who lived north of Admiral Boulevard in a district whose inhabitants have been left to plan their own salivation. They were selected by a draft board made up of white men who selected them to go to war for various reasons other than physical fitness, which every intelligent Negro knows and understands. This contingent of men were known as the Bear Cats. This is the contingent that was in the first line trench. DR. WILLIAM J. THOMPKINS, A believer in the common people and a fighter for his rights. es six weeks after leaving Kansas City and that defended the way leading to Paris. This is the contingent out of which the largest penalty in human souls was paid. This contingent was in the group of those men who were scheduled to go over the top on the morning of the 12th of November to take Metz. These boys were in the group of men that were to be sacrificed a thousand men to the hour, with General Pershing figuring that seventy-two hours was all that would be required to take Metz. These men held the same position on the sector as a result of Pershing's order as "isacd did when he was ordered to be offered up by Abraham as a sacrifice to God"; these men were to be offered up as a sacrifice for democracy and to make history for those who now criticise them. The Armistice was the only thing that saved them, "It was an act of God." They were selected because they were daring—their former environments made them so. When we learned that they were to be our guests, we planned a program of speeches, music, and a minuet dance, but the commanding officer informed us that these men wanted to live once more for a day according to their old customs, so we gave them first a rousing reception, then a chicken dinner, followed by plenty of real jazz music, the kind that they would probably enjoy most; and their brief stay was ended with a parade over the city commanded by two commissioned officers, Lieut. Stonestreet and Lieut. Gallait, who knew them better than we, and in whose hands the government had entrusted their deliverance. When I led them out, there was not a woman in the line. I then took my place to the right of the marshal of the day, and proceeded with the parade that marked a most eventful occasion for our city. I have since been told that the boys' mothers, sisters, and sweethearts did cover the men with a wealth of attention, but it was the only attention that could come from those old women who went to the station Thursday morning at 7 o'clock, and remained until Friday morning at 1 o'clock, and then waited until 10 o'clock to join with them in that triumphal march. It is true there were no "Dictydoo" ladies bestowing these special honors upon the int Faded DR. J. Laat paper diers of th of th guess as the gent VOLUME X. NUMBER 31. Heroes, for the heroes did not come from the "Dlety-doo" class; and yet who would have dared to deprive them or their privileged friends of this, the supreme joy of their lives? Then, too, I am told that the ladies who accompanied the heroes were not beautiful, that their raiment was not of fine quality, but that these few, with their limited opportunities, still adhered to the custom of the old bandana—and thank God for the remaining remnants of the custom. Thus it seems that the critics could not find any ground for complaint but that of appearance, which, however, could not be otherwise as that of men who have had to earn their livelihood by the sweat of their brow, and who are a part of the builders of this great municipality; and they came from those that you saw in that parade, in common parlance, "Black," as they were said to have been, "but sweet, O God," with hearts white and true; simple and unkempt as they were, but whose textures represented not ill-gotter wealth, but honest toil. Finally, I will say to you men, with or without money, who desire to be called sponsors for the Race, that this is the crucial period of democracy and of reconstruction. We need not only your money, but need you to go into the homes and communities of these people, and take them into your confidence, and preach to them and show them new and right modes of living: prepare them and draw them into the habitat of your society—then, and not until then, will you be in a position to pass a single word of criticism. Your scope of territory extends east of the State line to Centropolis and from the river to Westport. My dear boys of the 92d, a writer commenting on the parade had this to say, that you "Were flanked, covered, and bidden by a motley mob of unkempt, disorderly, boisterous, unsightly, uncouth Negroes, who paraded commenting through the streets of the city, thereby lowering the prestige of the Negroes. Enthusiasm, love, and devotion are not expressed by a certain definite formula, nor is it mechanical and formal; it, it comes with a fruition unmistakable. So, if our prestige has been lowered, we have but to blame ourselves; and I say let's have another parade, the sooner the better, then we may devise a plan to improve it. The critic was ashamed of your people because the white people of our city saw our real neglected citizens. In his mind, you represented the rusty feet of the peacock. Do show them again, and by so doing, he and his kind may awaken to a keen sense of the responsibility of doing rather than dreaming, as he says he has been doing. I am now speaking to you for the masses—for you our hearts go out. We feel proud of what you have done, and the sacrifice that you have made. We glory in the thought that you are to be measured by the depths from which you came. As motley and unkempt as your friends may have been, we were not ashamed of you, and have no excuse to offer, no apologies to make for their appearance and method of participation in your celebration, which was not dissimilar to all the triumphal processes of history.

PRIVATE SHAW READS ORIGINAL POEM. One of the most pretentious as well as enjoyable banquets ever given in this city was that given in honor of the return of Lieut. John R. Fairley of the 92nd Division by the South Side "Do Right Club" of the Building Laborers' International Protective Union of America No. 1 at their elegant hall, 1731 Lydia avenue, last Sunday evening at 6 p. m. The hall was beautifully decorated for the occasion and the banquet table was set in the form of a gigantic U with the Uniform Rank seated on the inside under the command of Colonel MISS BESS Who was declared by all those pres- contestant at the Fashion Show what they say) will be nothing t coming Fashion Show, April 22nd Clean Up Week Best Clean an up premises, remo- repair your fences and wall resident districts' as sanitary other districts in the city. Get your shovel' rake and Thomas Eaton and the guest of honor, invited guests and other members of the organization facing them. Popular and inspiring music was furnished throughout the evening by the famous Lyric Hall orchestra, and vocal selections were rendered in a most pleasing manner by Benj. Gibson. The service flag of the organization hung directly over the guest of honor's head; seated on his left was the toastmaster, Mr. Charles H. Harris, President of the South Side Do-Right Club, and on his right the Editor of The Sun, and on each side of them were the guests of the evening, each of whom was called upon and delivered brief but appropriate addresses. One of the enjoyable features of the evening was the singing of old time ballads by Uncle Henry Disart, 70 years of age, one of the charter members of the organization. The speech of "Senator" White, one of the oldest members of the union and a former president for a number of years, in welcoming the guests was a gem and provoked much applause. A sumptu ous menu was served as follows: Menu. Chicken a la Maryland Oyster Dressing Cream Gravy Olives Celery Radishes Burgundy Creamed Potatoes French Peas in Timbles Sweet Pickles Hot Rolls Budweiser (a-plenty) --- Old Virginia Sugar Cured Ham Salad Neopolitan Cream Assorted Cake Cigars Skee To say that the assemblage did justice to the banquet is putting it mild, and although several doctors were among the invited guests, it became almost necessary to call in outside physicians to keep them from foundering themselves. Dr. Ramsey especially became so full (of good things to eat) that it was necessary for him to leave, but the rest managed to stick it out to the close. An unexpected but highly honored guest who was received standing, amid much aplause, was Capt. Lee, son of Prof. J. R. E. Lee of the High School, who had just reached here; that evening, while another soldier guest who read a splendid original poem, which is published herewith, was Private John A. Shaw of Battalion A. 351st Field Artillery, and also an honored mem JIE CONWAY ent to be the most attractively gowned last year but whose costume (from to some of the gowns to be worn at the gins Monday, Apr. 5 love ashes, paint your houses, kiss and let's make the Negio y, neat and attractive as any d hoe and let's GO TO IT. ber of the union. This delightful repast was prepared by Mrs. C. H. Harris, Mrs. Jake Williams, Mrs. Ella Daniels, and Mrs. Matt Williams, while the ushers and waiters, under the supervision of Mr. Jake Williams, were: Howard Pryor, Tom Lewis, Fred Bogus and Willie Williams. And no better service could have been given at the Baltimore or Muehlebach than these excellent ladies and gentlemen gave. The Uniform Rank won much praise for their splendid appearance and excellent drill and Captain Andy Pryor has a right to feel proud of this splendid body of men. Others who contributed to the success of the affair were: Ed Craig, chairman of entertainment committee; James Henry, secretary; Ed Fields, vice president; Nat Williams, Jake Williams, Nathan Manley and Green Hudson, the founder of the South Side Do-Right Club. The officers of this unique organization at present are: C. H. Harris, president; James Washington, secretary; Ed Craig, loan department, and Andy Todd, treasurer; while another faithful member is John Wesley, the old veteran of Independence, as well as D. C. Cathey, whom the Editor has known for many years. Addresses were delivered by the following guests of the organization: Messrs. T. B, Watkins, C. H, Calloway, Dr. William J. Thompson, Q. J. Gilmore, Felix H. Payne, Officer Wal --- ter Howard, Dr. James Smith, Dr. Griffen of Independence, Mo.; Prof. W. T. White, C. A. Franklin, Dr. J. E. Dibble, Prof. J. R. E. Lee, Fred W. Dabney, A. T. Moore, Dr. E. B. Ramsey and Nelson C. Crews; while very interesting remarks were made by Captain Lee and the guest of honor, Lieut. John R. Fairley. Resolutions were adopted by the assemblage urging the Negroes of the two cities to boycott the Kresge Ten Cent Store, while a general invitation was extended by Messrs. Joe Holly, Captain Pryor and Sergeant Gatewood of the Uniform Rank to the visitors to attend their drills at any time. After the singing of "Auld Lang Syne" and a general handshaking, a resolution was offered by Prof. Lee and unanimously adopted by the invited guests thanking the club for their delightful entertainment and pledging their support to assist in the erection of the new addition to their splendid building which President Harris and nounced they were to begin in the near future. All left declaring it one of the most enjoyable evenings they had ever spent. DEMOCRACY. (By John H. Shaw, 351st Field Artil lery, B. A.) They said we would not make artillery men, They said we would not cross the sea; We are going to make our old home happy When we bring them liberty. They said we were as dumb and ignorant, They said we were hard to understand, They said we would never make a soldier, But we are learning all artillery plans. After while they are going to miss us, Then Uncle Sammy will want to enlist us, The 351st, it will stand forever, With that great name they have made a record. After while we will be so happy, When Uncle Sam takes back his khaki, We are going home, never more will we roam, After while! After while! Now you know the war is over, They said we were to guard the Rhine, They know that we have done our duty Out on the firing line. We have rung the bell again for lib erty, All we want is to be set free. All we want is what we fought for. And that means Democracy. AN ATROCIOUS CRIME. A Brutal Wretch Dashes the Brains Out of Two Helpless Old Women With an Ax Because He Said "They Talked About Me." Gets Ninety-nine Years in Prison. One of the most sickening and brutal crimes ever committed in this city occurred last Monday when a Negro by the name of Segel George. 54 years of age, took an ax and crushed the skulls of Mrs. Laura Winters, 54 years of age, and Mrs. Sallie Curtis, 65 years of age. Mrs. Curtis is totally blind and has been for a number of years and the Colored people of the city were so incensed at this wanton and atrocious crime that had George fallen into their hands it would have fared badly with him, but he immediately rushed to the police station and told the officers what he had done, but they were loth to believe it and not until he persisted would they send the officers to investigate and found his statement was true. When asked why he killed them he said, "They accused me of being trifling and shiftless," and he said he told them if they repeated it he would hurt them and upon their doing so he proceeded to crush out their lives. He was taken before Judge Latash Wednesday and upon his plea of guilty was sentenced to 99 years at hard labor. The funeral services of Mrs. Laura Winters were held from the Second Baptist Church last Thursday afternoon, under the auspices of M. B. Carruthers Chapter (O. E. S.). Burial was in Woodlawn Cemetery. The funeral services of Mrs. Sallie Curtis was held at Allen Chapel at the same time and burial was in Highland cemetery. THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF COLORED PEOPLE. THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF COLLORED PEOPLE. Over a thousand people were invited, the Charity Organization Hall, New York City was secured, and, on the evening of May 30, the conference opened with an informal reception. The next morning our deliberations began. We have had Annual Conferences since 1909, but I doubt whether any have been so full or a questioning surprise, amounting swiftly to enthusiasm on the part of the white people in attendance. These men and women, engaged in religious, social and educational work, for the first time met the Negro who demands not a pittance, but his full rights in the commonwealth. They received a stimulating shock and one which they enjoyed. They did not want to leave the meetings. We conferred all the time, formally and informally, and the Association gained in those days many of the earnest and uncompromising men and women who have since worked unfalteringly in its cause. Mr. William Hayes Ward, senior editor of the Independent, opened the Conference and Mr. Charles Russell, always the friend of those who struggle for opportunity, presided at the stormy session at the close. The full proceedings have been published by the Association. Out of this conference we formed a committee of forty and secured the services of Miss Frances Blascoer as secretary. We were greatly hampered by lack of funds. Important National work would present itself which we were unable to handle. But our secretary was an excellent organizer and at the end of a year we had held four mass meetings, had distributed thousands of pamphlets, and numbered our membership in the hundreds. In May, 1910, we held our second conference in New York, and again our meetings were attended by earnest, interested people. It was then that we organized a permanent body to be known as the National Association for the advancement of Colored people. Its officers were: National President, Moorfield Storey, Boston; Chairman of the Executive Committee, William English Walling; Treasurer, Oswald Garrison Villard; Executive Secretary, Frances Blascoer; Director of Publicity and Research, Dr. W. E. B. DuBois. The securing of a sufficient financial support to warrant our calling Dr. DuBois from Atlanta University to an executive office in the Association was the most important work of the second Conference. When Dr. DuBois came to us we were brought closely in touch with an organization of Colored people formed in 1905 at Niagara and known as the Niagara Movement. This organization had held important conferences at Niagara, Harpers Ferry and Boston and had attempted a work of legal redress along very much the lines upon which the National Association for the Advancement of Colored people was working. Its platform as presented in a statement in 1905 ran as follows: Freedom of speech and criticism; an unfettered and unsubsidized press; manhood suffrage; the abolition of all caste distractions based simply on Race and Color; the recognition of the principle of human brotherhood as a practical present creed; the recognition of the highest and best training as the monopoly of no class or race; a belief in the dignity of labor; united effort to realize these ideals under wise and courageous leadership. In 1910 it had conducted important civil rights cases and had in its membership some of the ablest Colored lawyers in the country, with Mr. W. Ashleigh Hawkins, who has since worked with our Association on the Baltimore Segregation Acts, as its treasurer. The Niagara Movement, hampered as it was by lack of funds and by a membership confined to our Race only, continued to push slowly on, but when the larger possibilities of this new Association were clear, the members of the Niagara Movement were advised to join, as the platforms were practically identical. Many of the most prominent members of the Niagara Movement thus brought their energy and ability into the service of the Association, and eight are now serving on its Board of Directors—Adv. PRICE, 5c. BUNDY CONVICTED. Chicago, April 4.—Dr. Leroy N. Bundy, dentist, and prominent in civic matters in his former home at East St. Louis, Ill., was declared guilty and sentenced to life imprisonment by the circuit court in Waterloo, Ill., Friday. The conviction is the outcome of charges preferred against Dr. Bundy as the result of the East St. Louis riots in July, 1917. It is certain that there will be a motion for a new trial, and the case will be appealed if this is denied. The East St. Louis riots in which more than 100 occurred, and resulted in the devastation of that section of East St. Louis, where the majority of the Colored people live, for the blackest spot on the escutcheon of the great state of Illinois. The immediate charge against Dr. Bundy was that of murder in connection with the killing of two policemen on the night of July 1st. Dr. Bundy was the last of thirty-four defendants to be given prison terms in connection with the riot, of whom twenty were whites. The case is one of national importance, as thousands of people are of the belief that Dr. Bundy is being persecuted, and is being made a scapegoat in a carnival of crime that will never be effaced from the memory of our people. A price was placed on Dr. Bundy's MR. Q. J. GILMORE Exalted Ruler of Mid-West Lodge of I. P. O. E. of W. He is going to ask the National Convention to come to Kansas City in 1920. head for a long time, and he was finally taken into custody at Cleveland, Ohio, his former home, where his parents live, and where he graduated from Western Reserve University of Dentistry. Extradition was fought before Governor Cox of Ohio, who granted a special hearing, and after much delay finally permitted Dr. Bundy to be taken back to Illinois. After languishing in jail for some months, he finally secured bail, and all last year traveled over the country telling his side of the story, and raising funds for his defense. The National Association for Colored People was at first very active in co-operating with Dr. Bundy and his friends in fighting the case, but because of certain indiscreet incidents connected with the collection of funds, as claimed by the Association, this organization publicly announced withdrawal from participation in the lawsuit. Dr. Bundy has no children, but is married, and the untiring interest and efforts of his wife, a native of St. Louis, in endeavoring to obtain his freedom, have attracted the greatest attention and aroused genuine sympathy. Dr. Bundy is the son of Rev Dr. Chas. Bundy of Cleveland, Ohio, a presiding elder in the A. M. E. church and mentioned for Bishop. He has a brother, Richard Bundy, secretary of the legation, Monrovia, Liberia. Sentiment in Chicago is divided on the outcome of the trial. NEGRO SLAIN NEAR SPOT WHERE HE KILLED MAN The body of Gus Towerwater, a Negro, was found on the sidewalk near 579 Troost avenue, Belvidere Hollow, at 9:30 o'clock last night with two bullet holes near his heart. Death had been instantaneous. The police could learn nothing regarding the tragedy, as no witnesses to the shooting could be found. Residents of the "hollow" told the officers that about nine years ago Towerwater had killed noather man of his race within sixty feet of the spot where his dead body was found. The police incline to the theory that a friend of the slain man may have finally "squared accounts." From Our Foreign Correspondents A. F. & A. M., Missouri Jurisdiction W. W.

Quite a few of our boys from overseas are at home again and seemingly are glad to be hre. After all there's no place like home, especially if it's in good old Kansas City. Remember: If it's in the newspaper line and published, Swancy & Sons have it or can get it. Wait for our solicitor, who will call on every Negro reader in Kansas City, Kans., in the very near future.

There was no preaching in the evening. An interesting program was rendered by the Mite Missionary Society. Rev. W. R. Boone of Chicago, Ill., delivered a soul-stirring sermon at the Metropolitan Temple Sunday morning. Dr. Boone was the first pastor of this Church and the membership was indeed pleased with this visit. There were six additions. In the evening Rev. D. A. Holmes delivered a splendid sermon. Chicken thieves have about cleaned the northern part of the city of chickens. There has been an arrest made and some of the chickens recovered by their owners. At this writing we are unable to say what the outcome will be. We understand that the culprit is out on bond, pending a hearing. Such men are a disgrace to any community in which they may live, and the sooner we are rid of them so much the better. Mrs. R. H. Hayes, 3300 North 27th street, visited her brother, Private James Smith, of the Old 8th Illinois, in Chicago, last week. Private Smith had just been released from the base hospital where he was confined for three months after being wounded in battle. Mrs. Hayes reports him looking fine now and quite well. While in Chicago Mrs. Hayes visited Mesdames Nettie Sexton Seymour, Rosa Bertha Primus and Ella Lee Smith Robinson, all of whom had been formerly instructors at Western University, this city, and whom she reports to be doing well in the city of Chicago.

The Pleasant Green Baptist Church (Destroyed by Fire July 14, 1918), Rebuilt in Less Than a Year by Rev. Geo. McNeal, Pastor. "Work as well as pray" has rewarded the efforts of the communicants and pastor of the Pleasant Green Baptist Church, with a new edifice. Under the able and distinguished leadership of Rev. George McNeal, who has been pastor for twenty-six years, Pleasant Green Baptist Church, which was destroyed by fire July 14, 1918, has been replaced by a new stately church edifice, whose spires kiss the clouds and the chimes of whose bell can be hoard for miles around. The church was formerly located at First and Splitlog avenue, Kansas City, Kansas, but the new edifice, to keep pace with its worshipers, is now located at Fourth and Oakland, a logical and convenient location for a church, and pastor like the Reverend McNeal. His uniriting as well as business methods can be well emulated, as in less than nine months after the destruction of his church, we find Rev. McNeal and his congregation and many friends opening their new church, which is proof sufficient that God helps those who help themselves. Sunday, March 31, was a beautiful day Nature seemingly rejoicing and rendering her assistance in making the day one of long remembrance. Dr. L. K. Williams, the able divine of Chicago, was to have delivered the opening sermon, but was prevented from doing so by a severe attack of the la gripe. However, the pastor, Rev McNeal, was equal to the occasion and preached both at the morning and evening services, causing many hearts to rejoice. The services began at 5:30 a. m. with risen prayer meeting, which was well attended and a spiritual talk with the Master of Heaven and Earth was had, thus beginning the feast which lasted throughout the day and into the night. At 9:30 a. m. Mrs. Lydia Rogers conducted the Mission Circle. At 11 a. m. the pastor, Rev. McNeal, preached a soul-stirring sermon, in fact, one of the kind that we remember he preached when he came to us some twenty-six years ago. He was blessed with a full attendance. At 2:30 p. m. the road from all the churches led towards that of Pleasant Green Church. It was estimated that at least 5,000 members and friends were present. To the beautiful strains of the organist, the choir robed in white, marched to their places and sang "Holy, Holy, Holy," which showed how well they had been trained for the occasion by their choirster, Mrs. Sarah Hammett Bartell. Dr. I. H. Anthony, one of our leading physicians, made the preliminary remarks and introduced as master of ceremonies Rev. D. A. Holmes, pastor of the Metropolitan Baptist Church, who at once took charge of the pro program, which in itself was a rare treat of intellectual and artistic rendition. Mrs. Sarah Hammett Bartell rendered a very beautiful solo, such as she alone is capable. Mr. N. W. Thatcher, our undertaker, spoke of the past and present of Pleasant Green Baptist Church. Our own Mr. Boatner (baritone) favored us with a solo. Remarks were made by the following pastors of the city, viz. Revs. J. F. Griffin, Moses Williams, J. R. Richardson, D. B. Jackson and W. A. Bowren. Representatives from the different lodges, temples and courts also made timely remarks. The Mayor, H. A. Mendenhall, with City Commissioner Chapman and Brown, made remarks complimentary of the great work done. Mrs. R. G. Jackson, Wr. Whitfield, the Alabama Quartette and the Metropolitan Baptist Church Choir also furnished excellent musical numbers. This meeting which was attended by practically all of the citizens of Kansas City, Kansas, was indeed quite a success both spiritually and financially. There were eleven souls added to the church as candidates for baptism. The evening services were well attended. The total collection for the day was $1329.75. Every member responding to roll call with five dollars. ROBERTS' RESTAURANT Sunday Chicken Dinner 30 cents Dinner served every day. WM. ROBERTS, Prop. 1736-38 Highland Ave. J. E.

"Deed dey is." —That if you expect to avoid criticism you must do nothing, say nothing and be nothing. —That the meanest woman in the world is the one who will not tell another woman a "secret." —That Betty and Sam are all "stuck up" because they are getting some new clothes for Easter. Well, they shouldn't be, for they haven't had any for five years. —That a certain school ma'am washes all the paper money she receives before she uses it. Well, we are not so particular. Just give it to us any old way. —That a certain dude recently decided to auction himself off at a dollar a chance, but after the women looked him over there were only three chances sold, two to old maids and one to an idiot. Didn't go very big, did he? —That a Colored man called up a lady the other day and said "Calle Jackson, will you marry me Sadday night?" and Calle replied "Co'se I will if I can get a dress made by dat time. Who is you anyhow?" That's going some, isn't it? —That a certain "doctah" asked a citizen how he felt. The citizen replied "Fairly well except a little cold." The "doctah" said "Better get some whiskey and quinine." The next day the citizen received a bill for two dollars. Betty and Sam say that all doctors must have plenty of nerve. —That a Sunday School teacher was telling a class of boys that the race is not to the swift but to him that holds out to the end; and then asked "Why is it, boys, the race does not go to the swift?" One little fellow spoke up quickly and said "It must because his gasoline gave out before he got there." Some answer, eh? —That a noted attorney was questioning a witness and insisted that he reply either yes or no. The witness protested of the manner in which the question had been put, he could not answer it intelligently with a yes or no. There is no question but what can be answered intelligently with a yes or no," said the Attorney. "I can ask you one question that you cannot answer intelligently with either yes or no," said the witness. "Put your question," said the Attorney. "Have you stopped beating your wife yet?" asked the witness. It took the Court a half hour to get order. They say that if you will call West 380, you'll hear something to your advantage as well as for your health.—Adv.

Butter-Cream BREAD A LABELLE DIPLOMA IS POSITIVELY THE ROYAL ROAD TO SUCCESS AND HAPPINESS Because any hairdresser holding a La Belle Diploma can successively prove to the people that they can grow hair, because they treat the scalp scientifically, regardless of the condition of the hair.

Guaranteed to cure any scalp disease and positively grows the hair long, abundant and beautiful.

Come and see us TO THE MOTHERS OF KANSAS CITY, MO. A ward to the public, but especially mothers, as I am a mother and am writing this for the benefit of our girls, the flowers of our families. I have two dear little girls between the ages of 14 and 16 years, hence I am interested in other girls of this age as well as my own. I wish to call your attention to the parties or social functions carried on nightly in the various homes and conducted entirely by children who live in these homes and frequented by children without chaperones. Now if every mother was interested in their girls as I am there would be no more of these parties and they would be failures for the lack of guests. I was out of the city recently for about two months and when I returned I heard of these parties and my girls had been attending them. I at once made up my mind to find out the nature of them and as a result I accompanied my daughters to two of them. I found them to be most disgraceful and embarrassing, I am positive that any mother who desires to rear those dear sweet boys and girls with a knowledge of respectability and purity would endeavor to break up such places of ruin and degradation. These invitations are sent out through the schools and the lists no respect of the schools and the lists. Some of these places are not even presentable where these are given. I hope this will start other mothers to thinking. Girls we love for what they are; boys for what they promise to be. Girls at an early age are not content with being pretty; they wish to be thought so. We soon notice by their little airs that this care already occupies them and scarcely are they capable of understanding what is said when they may be governed by telling them what is thought of them. The same motive, very indirectly proposed to the little boys have an influence over them. A lovey child is above rank. Girls are sweet and are of ardent nature. They are as heaven made them; handsome enough if they be good enough. The mother's heart is the child school room. Holy as heaven—a mother's tender love; the love of many prayers and many tears which changes no with dim declining years. I hope to leave this impression with my dear readers that the future destiny of the child is the work of the mother. MRS. M. H.

A Last week the secretary of our Paseo "Y" and Prof. G. N. Grisham attended the dedicatory exercises for the new Pine Street Y. M. C. A. at St. Louis. The new building, located at Pine and Ewing streets, is the best of the Association buildings, erected with the aid of the Rosenwald gift. The building complete is to cost $192,829.51. Of this amount $57,5,000 was raised by Colored people, $110,329.51 by the Metropolitan Board and $25,000.00 by Mr. Julius Rosenwald, of Chicago. The exercises were in every way a big success. Secretaries and members of other Associations were present and many other out-of-wn visitors were in attendance. ie principal speakers on the program were: The Hon. Seldon P. Spencer, U. S. Senator; Dr. J. E. Moorland, International Secretary; Lieut. Col. Otis B. Duncan of the 3700 U. S. Infantry, and Mayor Henry W. Kiel, of St. Louis. St. Louis is really aroused over the success of this particular effort and too much cannot be said of their splendid committee of managers for their work. Prof. Williams is tireless in his efforts to have the "Y" succeed and he is ably assisted by our good friends, Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Malone. These good people have meant much to the "Y" movement in St. Louis and all the visiting secretaries went away wishing that they could take the Malones with them.

THE BEEFERS ABROAD. By Sergt, Leonard R. Jackson, Co. H, 815th Pioneer Inf. Reg. In time of peace when all was still These knackers hung around; When times were good, when times were bad. They made that doleful sound. But now there is no peace. They will sing the blues in spite of fate With every need. They burn their shows and then want more, The chow don't eat just right; The coat's too large, the shirt's too small, The breeches fit too tight. One day they drill, next day they won't, The Captain raises sand; Some day he'll fill the guard house up With every soldier man. They can sing and pray, these won derful men: derval then; God loves them, I am sure; They can steal and gamble just as well, Then cuss and pray some more. They won't get up for reveille, They are sick 'till the meat horn's blow. Now then they run from far and near, Mess is one formation sure. Now after this, not to the road On the sick list they will go. And when marked "duty," hear them 'What, cry makes him treat us so?" As this all haps, I'm in the vineyard Working hard and true. Without time or reason to complain, I have something else to do. I will not bother my good officers With useless kicks like these; The only things that worry me Are the "cooties" and the "feas." Hubbell's Car—Bell Phone East 2013 THE MESS LINE AND KIT. By Sergt. Leonard R. Jackson, Co. H, 815th Pioneer Inf. Reg. We are a Company of the 815th, Organized in Funston town. We have cut no shine, on the battle line, But on another we have great re- nown. We have had quite a bit of training. At drilling we are not slow. But any old time we hit a mess line Something has got to go. The German General, Von Hinden- burg, Could drive man-power some; He could take a hill against the Allies' will And not a man would run. He formed a line that was so strong It held for three years or more But I'll tell you now, had it led to chow We would have broken it long ago. Kaiser Bill was a greedy boy, He took a bite that was too big; He sicked his Hindenburg dog on a full grown hog— He thought it was a pig. Now we never had a chance at Hindenburg's line, And I don't know what we would do. But they are wasting time with the old mess line, For we will break it half into. It was our Uncle Sammy's needs; The time was then that noble men Were joined in nobler deeds. Now we wonder when we will get back home, We would certainly like to go. But the time is not long, it's just like a song— Hark! The old mess whistle's blow. When the long hikes on the stony roads Caused pains down in our feet. We share our troubles with the old mess kit.

Regardless of whatever incriminating evidence that may have been submitted by revengeful white men and seditious black men against Dr. Bundy, the one fact remains that he would not have been implicated in the affair at all except in defense of his race and if the murderous affair had not been begun by a mob of brutal white men. It was to be expected that the Negro would get the worst of the whole issue. He always does even if it is necessary to employ the traitorous instincts too often found in the very people whom he risked his life to save Dr. Bundy was not alone on trial. It was, as we see it, a trial of the entire Negro race and it was to settle the question as to how far a black man shall go in defending himself and his neighbors against the autocracy of the mob—the American superlegal institution respected by the white people as much as it is deared by the black people. Thus it may as well be regarded as a settled principle that a black American has no wholly sacred rights and that to him the idea of self-defense or race-defense is merely a matter of unrequited martyrdom. Clune's big new cinema production, "The Eyes of the World," which will be shown at Love's theatre, April 17 and 18, is one of the truly great film achievements of the times. "The Eyes of the World" is in nine sections, consuming about two hours in its showing. It cost a large fortune, and there is reason to believe that claim that it was in process of making for nearly eight months. That a very large public is awaiting the Clune production is made certain by the fact that Harold Bell Wright's celebrated story of modern life in California has had a sale of over 2,000,000 copies. As a picture it is replete with the stuff of which thrilling motion pictures are composed. Among its well remembered incidents are the escape of the convict and his wanderings in the San Bernardino mountains, the kidnapping of Sybil Andres, the flight of the girl into the hills and the search of the forest ranges for her, the tragic death of Taine at the banquet table, and the fight of the lovers on the high mountain cliff, which results in the death of one of the pair. The "big scene" in the Clune pro production is this combat of the lovers. The scene was filmed on one of the loftest cliffs in all California, and is so realistic that you hold your breath. All in all it is a most extraordinary picture and worth both your time and money to see it. THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS. By William H. Dawley, Jr. "Before you sign it, read what you are signing," was the warning of Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis, of Chicago, of Standard Oil fame, before the Knife and Fork Club at the Muehlebach Hotel of Kansas City last Saturday night. In that same week former Supreme Justice Charles E. Hughes submitted seven amendments to make the proposed constitution palatable to self-respecting states. Hear, Hear! These are judges unbiased by anxious political futures. Japan, whose armies have not been decimated and are as fit as our own, has demanded nothing, but she must have hinted something at the Peace Conference for Australia has suddenly announced with emphasis that under no circumstances will she consider any clause on racial equality, and her Maori (Native Australians) have vanished more completely than our Indians. Usually in our courts of justice the testimony of almost any kind of white man will outweigh that of a score of the best Negroes, but at Waterloo, Ill., in the case of Dr. Bundy the testimony of one Negro nullified that of nine white men last week. As a result the doctor is in prison. A black hero of No Man's Land, fictitious or real, fares not so well in St. Louis. The police lose no time in making his acquaintance. But even white people will get into trouble; if they cast reflections on our marines. We guard their valor jealously. Some years ago after a successful but hard fought battle some one of the press stated that an officer had to draw his revolver to make members of the Negro regiment charge. If that had been true, how could that officer have lived to tell it? But no one was arrested. "It came out as I expected; the boys," said Mr. Schwab, the steel magnate, "were sound to the core!" What boys? The Negroes returning from France on the steamer with Mr. Schwab. He said to them because they had received no pay in five months, "You know where I am, but you need not return this money if you don't want to. One hundred thirty-eight out of one hundred fifty-four have already paid him. Would a Bolshevist or an I. W. W. have been one of the 128?" LINCOLN, NEB. By W. W. Moslev Rev. A. W. Talbott returned from the Annual Conference last week, having been reappointed to serve the M. E. Church here for another year.... W. H. Nelson died at the hospital last Tuesday at 4 p. m. after a lingering illness. The deceased is survived by five children, the oldest son in the United States Army, the wife dying some weeks ago. Nelson had lived in Lincoln many years and was well known. The funeral was held in the A. M. E. Church last Friday at 2:30 p. m. Rev. J. S. Payne preached; the scene of the services were sad; many friends were in attendance. Eugene Brown, who formerly was a resident of Lincoln a number of years ago, died at his home in Kansas City, Mo., last Thursday. The body was brought hers last Friday for burial, being accompanied by his wife. The deceased is survived by a sister, Mrs. Lewis, of this city, and other relatives. The funeral was held in Brown's parlor Saturday at 2:30 p. m. Rev. O. J. Burckhardt preached. Former comrades of the deceased acted as pall bearers. Many old friends attended to show last respects..Mrs. Kate Graves returned home Sunday after an extended visit with relatives in Kentucky..Mrs. Alma Wiley returned home from St. Joseph, Mo., Sunday being accompanied by her brother Walter Young, lately from overseas on a visit..Walter Mickleroy has arrived from overseas, also William Burden..Misses Burdens entertained last Friday night in honor of their brother, William, and other returned soldiers. Rev. E. M. Cohron of St. Joseph, Mo., preached for M. Zion Baptist Church last Sunday and several nights this week and for home Thursday..Lieut. William N. Johnson and Mrs. Johnson are visiting their parents in the city. Lieut. Johnson lately arrived from overseas and is home on a furlough. He's looking well and feeling fine. Prof. Hosmer of Tuskegee Institute, Tuskegee, Ala., is in the Institution. Mrs. Laura Johnson entertained last Friday night in honor of her son, Lieut. N. Johnson and wife. A large concourse of friends responded to invitation. Mr. William A. Johnson was toastmaster and a short program was rendered.... The N. A. A. C. P. held a meeting at the A. M. E. Church Sunday after noon. Rev. Weatherly of the Unitarian Church (white) addressed the meeting. Prof. Hosmer of Tuskegee Institute, Ala., then made a few remarks. Lebanon Lodge raised about five candidates in the Mysteries of Masonry last Tuesday night, after which an elaborate spread was enjoyed.
