Sheriffs to Visit Negro Lodges
BY THE ASSOCIATED NEGRO PRESS, COPYRIGHTED.
Macon, Ga., May 14.— There has been launched in this community to have a law passed to make it possible for the sheriff of the county, or his deputies, to have access to the secret lodge halls of the Race, because "Negro lodges are nothing more nor less than hobbeds of anarchy and Bolshevism, and are always plotting and scheming against the white race." This statement was made by W. J. Wingate, white.
Negro Soldier "Lost"
BY THE ASSOCIATED NEGRO PRESS, COPYRIGHTED.
Moutrie, Ga., May 14.—Dan Mack a forme, soldier, was removed from the Sylvester jail by a mob composed of about thirty men, who is charged with attacking a white man on the streets. There are those who think the man was given a sound thrashing and told to leave the county. Some believe he has been lynched. The mob travled in automobiles.
K. of P. and Courts of Calanthe Eastern and Western Hemisphere Score Big Hit in Production of Damon and Pythias at Auditorium Theatre Two Nights.
LOCAL TALENT SHOWS WONDERFUL ABILITY.
Madam Osborne Proves Ability as Dramatic Teacher.
On the evening of May 15th and 16th the colored people of the two Kansas Cities had an excellent opportunity to see demonstrated, what can be done by effort and intensive training. On these two nights were witnessed the production of that magnificent play, upon which the Knights of Pythias Lodges all over this country are founded, namely, Damon and Pythias. Many came to see a second rate performance put on by fourth and even fifth class actors; many came to see a travesty on dramatic art; many came to see a comedy of errors. But they were all clearly disappointed. For, instead, they saw only clean acting, telling and gripping in interpretation; pleasing and harmonious in setting and powerfully enthusiastic in execution. The characters literally threw themselves away and became the real living, breathing, excited mer and women whom they so splendidly represented.
Madame Osborne, dramatic instructor, has won for herself a lasting place in the hearts of her people. She has by her wonderful ability taken some very crude material and whipped it into shape so that it appeared to the public, as of professional caliber. Madame Osborne is a born dramatist a woman of intelligence and common sense, great perspicacity, a lover of her people and the race's benefactor. We owe her our love, allegiance and heart support.
Mr. H. Nick Carter, as Damon, is an artist and his acting was a revelation to the audience. His stage manners were at once pleasing and full of very acceptable technique.
Mr. Theodore Drury, as Pythias, was less enthusiastic but carried a wonderful reserve upon which he seemed able to draw at will and ad infinitum.
Mrs. W. D. Foster, as Calanthe, was a tender, clinging bit of effeminity which by antithesis set off grandly the Herculean work of her more powerful male associates. Mrs. Foster's voice and gesture belong to the realm of big acting.
Mrs. Sue Cotton, as Hermion, was not excelled by any member of the company. She was so well poised that the audience beheld her with wrap and breathless admiration.
Miss Willa Maniece, Messrs W. C. Kitchen, A. C. Gates, Vernon, W. W. Watkins, Cave, Joe Thompson and Baby Herndon held their own admirable and furnished a most reliable support for their star performers. The soldiers, senators, servants and in truth every person acted nobly his part.
The costumes were in keeping with the period in which the great event took place. The lights and stage properties were all in their respective and proper places. So, the great act moved on two nights, breaking all records for two successive show nights here-to-fore made in this city.
A great clean play, carefully set forth and teaching with profound effect the mighty lesson of true friendship and gaining for the K. of P. League and Courts, Eastern and Western

KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS BANQUET.
From the number of entertainments given in the last two weeks in honor of Grand Chancellor A. W. Lloyd, who was visiting the various Knights of Pythias Lodges and Courts of Calantha, it appeared that each Knight and sister were vieing with each other to see which could outdo the other in making his affair the more elaborate. Still after each of them had done what he felt was "the proper thing," they yet felt that enough had not been done for the honored guest and united to give the grandest affair ever held in this city. Last Friday, May 16 at Academy Hall, 14th and Michigan, more than three hundred Knights sat at the banquet table and enjoyed the most sumptuous feast it has been their pleasure to enjoy. The following program was rendered.

Washington, D. C., May 14.—There has been quite a stir of comment among the official family in Washington, and outsiders as well, because of the fact that all the cablegrans giving the names of the "official party" traveling with Secretary of the Navy Daniels on his tour through Europe, the name of Robert Gaines, a Race man, appears. Gaines is described officially as messenger, but his name is always on the official list sent by cablegram.

An African Faker
BY THE ASSOCIATED NEGRO

Birmingham, Ala., May 12.—An olly tongued member of the Race has been going about the smaller suburbs here preaching freedom and Negro rule in Africa. He has been telling them that a new nation, with a Negro for King, to be set up in the dark continent; that bread grows on trees and honey flows from the springs; that when they once get there, all their troubles will be over, and all they will have to do is to eat and rest them under the shade of the giants of the forest. About twenty families are said to have sold their possessions and are packing to go to the "land of promise."

THE SACRED DUTY OF NEGRO MEN.
By Mrs. J. R. William.
On reading "The Chicago Defender" last week, I saw an article which should interest every man and woman of our race in Kansas City. A man of our race was stabbed to death by a white man in Newport, Ark., when the former resented an insult directed at a young Negro woman. This man, thus brutally murdered, leaving behind a wife and five children, was as great a hero as any who poured out his last libation on Flanders' field or who shed his life's blood in the terrible battle of the Argonne for he died in an effort to defend that which should be nearest and dearest to the heart of every man who boasts of a

If we had more men who would be willing to give up all for a principle the degraded white man would think twice before offering our women insults, much less than brutal treatment, in public places. We suffer ambars, assault, humiliation, and are trampled upon by other shecause many of our men are cowards and are known to be such by those who seek to take advantage of us. They talk glibly when there is no test being made of their valor, but when the trying hour comes, the ordeal, many sit with lips quences, or worse still, make a speedy mute, paralyzed with fear of conse escape from the scene of action.

MISS WILLA M. GLENN.
One of the delightful surprises of the season was the marriage of Miss Willa May Glenn, manager of the Sun to Dr. Clifton Lloyd Peebles of Columbus, Ky. Miss Glenn has always expressed an aversion to public weddings and in keeping with her wishes they quietly went to the parsonage of Allen Chapel where they were joined-in wed lock by Allen's famous pastor, Dr. Wm. H. Thomas, with only two intimate friends present.
Dr. Peebles who has recently completed his term as Interne at the colored city hospital has opened handsomely furnished offices at 12th and Woodland Ave. equipped with all the latest and best appliances and is
building up a most promising practice and with his genial disposition dignified bearing and acknowledged ability will soon take high rank among the medical men of the west.
Miss Glenn was born and reared at Galena, Kas., where she finished the high school course, then taking the business course at Western University where she won high honors. For nine years she has been Business Manager of the Kansas City Sun, and the Editor has no hesitancy in saying she is the best business woman of the race he has ever met and as a rapid and expert typist she has no superior, white or Colored in this city. Her Betty and Sam column has become one of the features of Negro newspaperdom and is copied all over the country.
Beginning with the paper eleven years ago at a salary of $5.00 per week, her present salary based upon a percentage of gross receipts of the paper is approximately $200.00 per month and the Sun feels she has earned every dollar of it. She will continue for the present at least as Business Manager of the Sun and the editor and all the other members of the staff hope always. The entire staff congratulates Dr. and Mrs. Peebles upon their happy choice.

LEAGUE OF NATIONS.
It is difficult if not impossible for the best assembled brain of our time to settle satisfactory to all in six months what damage Germany did in nearly five years. Germany with more than sixty years of uninterrupted preparation and the acquisition of good coal, iron, and potash fields as well as a billion dollars in cash. Therefore, it must occasion no surprise if the Peace Conference leaves weighty matters to be adjusted later by the L. of N.
The proximate cause of the war was Serbia. Has the Peace satisfied her? Her antagonists have shifted. Austria has receded but Italy has unexpectedly forged to the force and stepped into Austria's abandoned shoes.

Dr. Bundy Talks
(By the Associated Negro Press copy righted.)
Chicago, May 10—I willingly go to the penitentiary, for a long or short time sad as it may seem to me and my friends. I will make the sacrifice if by so doing, the people of my Race shall become united with some definite and consecrated purpose to work for justice and the rights of humanity." With the foregoing words as a last letter to a friend in Chicago Dr. Leroy N. Bundy, sentenced for life, because of a trial which found him guilty of inciting the East St. Louis riot, closed his books, as it were, in the hall at Waterloo, Ill., and prepared for his gloomy journey to Joliet.
Inspired by this kind of a noble spirit, and the belief that Dr. Bundy was not given a fair trial, the effort to let the world know that fact has been launched with the greatest enthusiasm, and is gaining new ground each day.

Our beloved pastor, Rev. Mose Williams, preached both morning and night to full and overcrowded house, this day being the day of our dedication.
The Sunday School was well attended and the interest manifested in the lesson was apparent.

George McNeal was the Master of Ceremonies, and in his unique way proceeded to the rendition of the fine and appropriate program.
The church was rebuilt in about 90 days at a cost of $40,000, which in its itself is remarkable. The woodwork on the inside is of Mahogany. The ceiling is sky blue. The walls are snow white. The exterior is of pressed brick set

off with native white stone. The entrance having four pillars of the Southern type and two stairways leading from the sidewalk to the entrance also there is some work of the Greek art, Art, which supports four electric globes whose quaintness is hardly describable and must be seen to appreciate their beauty. The church has a membership of more than 1,500 worshippers in good standing, led by a young man, a man sent of God to carry on His good work, which will stand as a monument to him when years have rolled on into forgetfulness. The pastor and members are proud of their new edifice. We had 14 to unite with the church, which shows that the church is doing a good work for the Master.
The flowers that were used to decorate the church lawn were donated by the City. Rev. Davis of the C. M. E. Church, Kansas City, Mo., gave $200 toward the purchase of the Pews. The Choir is composed of 40 voices, well trained and fine singers. They rendered the music for the occasion. The church was dedicated by the S. M. T's and K. T's. The following pastors were present with many of their congregations: Rev. J. R. Richardson. Rev. W. W. Webb, Rev. D. H. Jackson. Rev. W. A. Bowren, and Rev. N. B. Robinson. Prof. J. J. Lewis was also a visitor. The collection was $882.
The B. Y. P. U. was well attended and showed the same spirit that had characterized all of the other services. The pastor filled the pulpit again at
the evening service and though worried by the strenuous labors of the day, gave us a masterful sermon which was full of the Spirit and Holy Ghost. Mrs. Sarah Bartell sang one of the sweet songs of Israel at the evening service which was a rare treat to all present. We wish to invite you to any of our service assuring you of a Spiritual treat.
THE FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH.
Rev. W. A. Bowren, Pastor.
The services were good and the attendance fine all day and everyone seems to be in working spirits. The Sunday School was well attended and the lesson were given with interest. The Pastor officiated at the morning service and had for his subject, "Useless and Mysterious Kingdoms." Application was to the disputations of the nations coming to the Peace Conference, and the American white man towards the Negro. He also brought out that the Negro was used providently to turn the tide in the rise of humanity. The B. Y. P. U. was held at the usual hour and the usual interest in the topics for discussion was taken. We are to have a Brick Rally on the fourth Sunday with the expectation of raising $1,500. The corner stone laying will be the first Sunday in June, and we are expecting the assistance of all the churches in the city.
The work on the new church is pro-
gressing rapidly and is fastly taking
on form, making us think that it won't
be long until we can go back to our
new and palatial home.
The pastor, as well as all the mem-
bers, are anxious for its completion
and its dedication to God.
If you are in our City and desire a
place to worship, we will be more than
glad to have you come and journey

The Sunday School met at its usual hour with all of the teachers and scholars in their places. The lesson was very interesting.... The church received two memberships, candidates for Baptism.... Mrs. A. E. Hines is on the sick list: we hope her illness is not serious and that she will soon be at her post in the church.... The evening services were conducted by the pastor, to a very large attendance.... The total collection for the day was $33.51.... Rev. F. Richardson continues ill but we hope he a speedy recovery....

MT. PLEASANT BAPTIST CHURCH
Burton, PA. Baptist Church. Poston.
Rev. J. R. Richardson, Pastor.
The Bible Class at 10:30 a.m. m. was well attended and began a day that will be long remembered by the members and friends. The lesson was well attended and we feel that much good was accomplished....At 11 o'clock the pastor took charge of the meeting and it was a very great meeting in several ways. The pastor was at his best and he preached a Gospel sermon, which caused many to rejoice and feel glad that they had come unto the house of the Lord. There was one joiner at this service, a little girl not more than eight years of age, who wished to accept the Lord as her Saviour....This service was characterized by the enthusiasm shown in the Rally. The sisters and men have for a long time been in a dispute as to who could raise the most money for the church Deacon Harris, an aggressive young man, was the self-taught leader of the men and had told the women that he had their number and that they would not have any chance to beat....The women, lead by Sister Ford, were determined that the men should not beat them, but the looks of the table plainly showed that the women were doing some team work....Those love Bible Stories and like to discuss the same stories and attend the meeting which is called each Sunday at 6:30 a.m. m....At 8 p. m. a Gospel sermon was preached by Rev. Webb. His collection was very good....After the final announcements the Choir was ordered to sing the Doxology, but Sister Ford was determined that the report should be made....Brother Harris, who made the challenge, then made his report, which was $163.29. Sister Ford walked down the aisle and got her mony that had been promised and donated for the church. She placed one sack under each arm and going to warp the pulpit, she began to sing and marched on down to the table where she deposited $404.46 that the women had raised. When her money was being counted the men acknowledged their defeat and put up the white flag....The Sewing Circle, under the leadership of Mrs. Beatrice Anderson, raised $50 for the church. The grand total for the day was $42.90....The annual Bazaar has been postponed until a later date, on account of the schools having their exercises which will mark their closing.
C. M. E. CHURCH.
Rev. H. H. Bolden, Pastor.
The Church was engaged in a rally all day Sunday. The different Clubs were represented by states. The morning services were conducted by the Pastor and a very fine sermon was delivered to the enjoyment of all worshippers.... In the afternoon the services were conducted by the Rev. N. T. Walker of Kansas City, Mo., who delivered a soul stirring sermon and many were made to rejoice and feel that they had come unto the house of the Lord.... The evening services were well attended and the Pastor, Rev. Bolden, preached, making the whole day one of rejoicing.

situate, which included the celebration of the School's Semi-centennial, paid tribute to the work of Armstrong, Frissell and Gregg. He said: "Hampton is a great. National instrument of progress, invented by eGeneral Armstrong and perfected by Doctor Frissell. It is given to few schools to be a pioneer in education, as Hampton has been. Hampton is the mother of a new system of education. General Armstrong conceived the possibility of uniting mental training with that of the hand in useful trade."
Rev. Dr. M. Ashby Jones of Atlanta, speaking for the white South, outlined "Hampton's Contribution to National Education." Dr. Jones said: "The glory of Hampton is that she is the first to give the Negro an opportunity to speak for himself. Hampton said: 'We do not know what the Negro is capable of, for he has never had an opportunity to speak for himself.'"

Mrs. Rosetta B. Green, traveling representative for the Kansas City Sun writes: My first stop was at Pleasant Hill, Mo., and it was here that my late husband, the Rev. Henry Green was pastor of the A. M. E. church for two years. The work we wrought in His name is still in evidence as seen in the Christian activity of the young people, who are the hope and support of the Church, only a few of the older ones being left. Space will not permit my feeling as I returned to this Church and people after ten years' absence. In our handclasp we smiled first and then the tears rolled down our cheeks unbidden which spoke eloquently of the joys and sorrows through which we had passed. Sunday the service was very good at both churches, Methodist and Baptist and though not well attended both enjoyed spiritual feasts. At three P. M. I attended the A. M. E. Sunday school and found a very interesting School of young people and children. I addressed them and organized a Junior Missionary Lillard is a splendid preacher and the Church will succeed under his leadership. Prof. J. S. Moten is slowly recovering from a serious illness...Mrs. Wm. Bryant and Mr. A. Scott and Mr. Geo. Wood are on the sick list...Mrs. Rosa Gipson is visiting in Kansas City...Our people in Pleasant Hill and Lee's Summit, Mo., are thrifty, sturdy most of them owning their homes with a large garden plot, chickens, pigs and a cow...Mrs. Harriet Clark former resident of Pleasant Hill now of Kansas City, Kansas, is visiting her old home and is the house guest of Mrs. Geo. Wood, where also the representative of the Sun is屋 guest. The latter was dinner guest of Mrs. M. Lillard and Mrs. L. E. Wright, Mrs. L. A. Scott and Mrs. Angeline Gudgell. In Lee's Summit the guest of Mrs. Sterling Moss to all whom she feels very grateful...Prof. J. S. Moten is principal of the school here and his wife, Mrs. Motel is his very efficient assistant who held everything in fine shape during the principal's illness and is closing the school with a grand exhibition which reflects much credit.
We are pleased to say that we were able to collect up all the delinquent subscriptions and add the following as as new readers of the Sun: Mrs. W. H. Snead, Miss Blanche Bryant, Mrs. Harriett Clark, Mrs. Cornelia Bryant, Mr. L. W. Wright, Rev. Y. L. Lillard, Mr. Leon Morris, K. Andrew Wood, Mrs. Robert Snead.
At Lee's Summit Mr. and Mrs. Sterling Moss are the pillars in the A. M. E. church, their beautiful home is the home of all ministers visiting Lees Summit. Mesdames R. L. Booker, Anna Cox are cateres and both kept very busy. We also added them as subscribers to the Sun. Mr. Bob Booker owns a beautiful home on a very prominent street.
Our people at Holden, Mo., are good livers, the greater part of them owning their own homes with fine gardens and chickens. I was guest in this little thriving town of Mrs. Henry Murry and Mrs. F. Ewing; the latter has a son overseas. I was met as cordially here as the other towns above mentioned and although there are but few of our people in this town I added the following to our already healthy list of subscribers: Mrs. Katherine Violette, Forest Berry, Mrs. Hattie Taylor, Mrs. F. J. A. Wilson, Miss Rachel West, Mrs. Lucille Taylor, Mrs. Emma Easely. We will write again from Sedalia.

1N HIS PRESENCE.
Won pereenas. Vda eee ete
It was last Thursday that we made
our first visit to Lincoln High School
‘Though entire strangers to the build:
ing and {ts occupants we were for-
minate to meet the principal at the
office door with a hearty “Good Morn-
ing.” After friendly introductions he
explained the cause for delaying us on
our mission and made us feel at home
in his office during the moments of
waiting. While we stayed in the bust
ling office we listened to his systema-
tie, kind but positive manner of un-
raveling the intricate problems
brought about by the forgetful and
negligent students, And we reached
the conclusion that no wonder the
faculty and student body feel at home
in his presence, No wonder he was
chosen to serve as principal of Lin-
coin High School.
‘This school demands the service of
our great men and women because it
bears the name of Abraham Lincoln
It was said of Lincoln that one could
not tell whether what he did was from
his head or from his heart so harmon:
fously did they work together, so of
Prof. J. R. E. Lee; or to adopt a quo:
tation from the poet, Tennyson, “His
head and soul according well, did make
one music.” and that in consonance
with all the rest of him. No one can
go into his presence without being
impressed, before he has spoken,
with the majesty of his personality.
Thave often thought when people have
spoken careless of our great men that
if they only knew them in their daily
strivings, in the numberless and un-
noticed acts which they are daily do
tng, of their dealings with the many
inds of people brought in contract
with them, they would have a differ
ent basis for their judgment, and the
result would be not a lower but ever
higher estimate of them. It would
‘be too much to make a biographica
sketch of Prof. Lee or any great Negrc
in Kansas City, Mo., but certainly
there ns space to write the impres
sion they make, or, indeed, any spec

FROM OVERSEAS
We are in receipt of a communication from Morris R. Steeamer, son of Mrs. Robinson, 1601 Virginia Ave., this city. He says: We the 805 Infantry are extremely proud that we had the opportunity of being in the last and hardest drive that ended the war which gave the world democracy. This (France) is the third foreign country in which I have served under General Pershing. We all wish to be remembered kindly by our relatives and friends.
Sgt. B. H. Neely of the 501 Pioneer Infantry Co. L., writes: "I cannot express in words my appreciation as well as of the other boys of my Company of the Sun. You friends over there do not realize how good we feel when we read the many good things you all are doing back home. Sgt. J. S. Ford of the Medical department is doing a great work. Our top Sgt. Mr. Evans Daniels, Clerk Sgt. Cornelius Crawford are all fine fellows. We are members of the Y. M. C. A. and wish to send regards to all."

E. Church, W. T. Andrews, editor of
The Daily Herald, Baltimore, Mr.,
and others of like prominence in public af-
fairs, calling attention to an endorsement
which had been placed on the
application filed by a colored officer
who had been overseas, relative to his
fitness for admission into the Regular
Army. The endorsement, or re-
mendation, signed by a Board of offi-
cers, appointed to investigate the qualifi-
cations of candidates for assignments
in the reorganized United States Army,
after summing up all citations and ob-
servations, was as follows:
"The Board recommends that he be not examined. Reason: unqualified by reason of the qualities inherent in the Negro race: an opinion of the Board, based on the testimony of five white officers serving with the 368th Infantry. Negroes are deficient in moral fiber, rendering them unfit as officers and leaders of men." War Record of Negroes Refutes Absurd Finding of Army Board.
surd Finding of Army Board.
The writers of the communications to the War Department, in addition to condemning the injustice to the officer involved made it quite plain that the colored people of the country resent most strenuously the reflection upon the race as a whole in the bald declaration that "Negroes are deficient in moral fiber, etc." and regard it as an unsustained indictment of the entire race as a group of incompetents and failures. They declared the charge to be absolutely described by the written record of the brilliant achievements of colored officers under fire in the fierce offensives of the war, and by the published testimony of General Pershing, of Colonel Hayward, and of a score of French officers of highest military standing, all of whom had the advantage of knowing exactly how the colored commanders bore themselves at crucial periods on the field of battle
The objectionable memorandum is refuted, the writers assert, by the unbroken chain of valorous deeds and heroism of Negroes in all the wars of the Republic from Bunker Hill to Carrizal and in France from Verdun to the siege of Metz.
No Exclusion of any Officer on Account of Color.
Dr. Emmitt J. Scott, Special Assistant to the Secretary of War, taking up the matter directly with the War Department, made this reply, upon the authority of the officials having charge of the question at issue, in a letter addressed to Editor Andrews, of the Baltimore Herald:
"With reference to the marked copy of The Daily Herald, containing an editorial, quoting an endorsement placed upon the discharge of a colored lieutenant who applied for retention in the service, I beg to say that this whole matter has been before the War Department, and I am pleased to inform you that the Chef of Staff has personally directed the Commanding General at Camp Meade to revoke the finding; he has also diected that in the matter of colored officers being commissioned in the army, there is to be no exclusion on account of color.
"I am sure you will be pleased that this action has been taken by the War Department, and I personally shae with you and the entie ace the satisfaction of feeling that the finding quoted by you, and which was placed upon the record of the colored officer, will not appear on his permanent record as filed in the War Department." The answer of Dr. Scott to the editor of the Baltimore Herald will serve as a reply to the many inquiers who have shown an anxiety to know the status of colored officers who desire to be retained for service in the Regular Army.

session was devoted to assembling, registering and outfitting delegates with badges after which a monster parade was given, led by a band of about 70 pieces.
In the afternoon addresses of welcome were delivered by the Mayor, J. M. Switzer, Roland Baggott, Judge of the Court of Domestic Relations, and Judge W. A. Budroe of the Municipal Court. Never has it been my privilege to hear two such consummate humorists on the same program. Both the judges assured the delegates that their delegate badge—if compelled while here to say, "Good morning, Judge" would be a complete acquittal for any offense short of murder—and in case they committed that, to be careful who they killed.
The second day has been taken up with a trip to the plant of the great cash register company, where at noon an elaborate dinner was served. Then a trip to a beautiful community play—ground known as "Hills and Dales Park," where a lunch was served.
About two hundred forty nine delegates composed the Convention, seven of whom are colored, viz: Chas, D. Swayne of Buffalo, N. Y.; W. E. Berry and Geo. A. Smith of Chicago; M. D. Lucas and I. C. Harep of Columbus, Ohio; Chas, Oldham of Dayton, Ohio, and Tilford Davis, Jr. of Kansas City. It is worthy of note that so far the colored delegates have received every possible consideration. We have compared notes and found that we have all been sought out and approached by delegates from "way down south in Dixie" even, and not one has found cause to complain of the treatment accorded us. The sessions are being held in the Gibbons Hotel.
This convention of musicians is representative of about 86,000 who are rated as professional musicians and making a living exclusively from that profession, or using their ability to assist materially in keeping ahead of the wolf.
