CHAPTER V.
As recorded in our last Chapter, the special meeting arranged in the spacious chapel by President Moten to hear from the members of our party drew a crowd in addition to the faculty and student body. After two selections by the unequalled chorus of Tuskegee, assisted by their magnificent orchestra, and Scripture reading and prayer by the chaplain, Dr. Moton representing the Institute, welcomed the visitors and told them how much the school appreciated the sacrifice of time from their important interests at home which was necessary for them to make the trip.
Editor Crews a Favorite.
Eager to remind them of the great debt owed to Booker T. Washington, Principal Moton said: "I take special pride, satisfaction and pleasure in welcoming these gentlemen to the school, and I am doing it in the name of the workers and the great Founder—Dr Washington—for there is nothing that gave him more pleasure and real satisfaction than to have Colored people see the work, which he gave his life for—not that he did more for the Colored people and less for the white people, but he did it for humanity and he wanted Tuskegee Institute to be made beautiful, attractive and clean, so that Colored people would be absolutely welcome. You don't see any "Don't" signs on the grounds. In some places, you see signs, "don't do this, and don't do that," but here there are no "Don't" signs at Tuskegee Institute for you.
"I want to tell you, gentlemen, again and again, how glad we are to see you, and have you come to see us. We have a program arranged for your entertainment through the Local Business League, and these gentlemen are members of the Kansas City Business League and we are looking after them. We want to assure you that everything is open to you. We would "give you the keys," as Mr. Crews would say in Kansas City; but we have nothing locked up here. I take this opportunity to thank our good friend, Mr. J. R. E. Lee for suggesting and arranging for these distinguished gentlemen to come to us. I know that he made the suggestion, but he is too modest to say so. Again and again I want to assure you of a most hearty and sincere welcome to this great institute, and I say great, because I did not build it, as I have only been here four years. Booker T. Washington built the school and made it possible for you to see what you do see, and these young people love and appreciate you."
Then to the students, Dr. Moton said: "You have before you, young people, some of the most distinguished people of the race-leaders, and if you ever get discouraged about what the Negro race is doing or coming to, just think of the men into whose faces you look and be inspired by the work they have done."
Each member of the party was introduced and responded by expressing their pleasure in their trip and paying tribute to the memory of Dr. Washington. Hon. Nelson C. Crews, Editor of the Kansas City Sun, was the last speaker and captured the large audience with his magnetic eloquence. Prolonged applause followed his beautiful expression of devotion to Tuskegee's founder, Dr. Washington.
"I am honored to come here tonight and stand before you. As you look into faces of the party of men be fore you, and think of the opportunities that lie in wait for you, I want you to pray to God that you will measure us to the standards that Dr. Washington wanted you to measure up to, and to the teachings of this good man, Dr. Moton, who came to you so that Dr. Washington's work might be carried on. A little more than a year and a half ago, a Conference was called in Washington to discuss conditions and to find out the best thing to be done to allay the unrest of the Colored people of the country, and it was your splendid, courageous and brainy principal—Dr. Moton—who stood up before the giants of the na

An Exhaustive Study of
Educational Development
From Every Angle
atory to our departure every member of the party was presented a neat package with the compliments of Tuskegee containing the following articles: The portrait of Dr. Booker T. Washington, the portrait of Principal R. R. Moton, a pamphlet entitled, "Team Work" which was the last Sunday evening talk every delivered by Dr. Washington in the Chapel, "Extension Work," a very interesting pamphlet by Dr. Clement Richardson now president of Lincoln Institute; "The Opinion of Educators regarding Tuskegee," from the National Educational Association; "The South's Labor Problem," by Monroe N. Work; "Tuskegee To-Date" and a stirring, bristling pamphlet on "The South and the Lynching Evil," by Principal Robert R. Moton. In addition each of us was given a handsome bouquet of roses from the Institute's famous green house and in fact we were almost smothered with attention.
A touching incident in connection with the departure of the party was the presentation of two large baskets of delicious sandwiches, by Mr. and Mrs. E. J. Jones and the matron of the dining hall, and the members of the party expressed their very great pleasure and satisfaction at being the recipients of such thoughtfulness and kindness.
Dr. Moton directed Mr. Holsey to accompany the party of visitors to Atlanta "To Turn Them Over," as he said to the Atlanta committee, who did themselves proud in carrying out the program for the visitors. The Local Business League of Atlanta composed of such young men as T. K. Gibb

tion in that Conference and fought successfully the battles of the race. Under his guidance, young people. I say, Tuskegee is going to measure up the standards of Booker T. Washington, and through God, help make possible these conditions which will hasten the day when Ethiopia shall stretch forth her hands to God and the Negro in the North, South, East and West shall enjoy every privilege and every opportunity that every other American citizen is permitted to enjoy."
At Dr. Washington's Grave.
On Thursday, afternoon, at four o'clock, the party assembled at the tomb of Booker T. Washington to pay solemn tribute and homage to the memory of Mr. Washington. The ceremonies were impressive in their earnestness and simplicity. While the assemblage stood around the grave with heads bowed in reverence, the Institute Cholr sang with tenderness, "Oh What a Morning," after which Rev. J. W. Hurst, offered prayer. Then a beautiful floral wreath was placed upon the grave as a token of appreciation and respect. The presentation words were made by Nelson C. Crews, who said in part, "We recollect the fact that when we stand beside the grave of the race's most illustrious dead, we are standing on hallowed soil. But we come to lay a tender flower here to pay a tribute to his memory and to let Mrs. Washington, Dr. Moton, and the others who come after him, know that we are here as an indication of our appreciation for the wonderful work wrought by him for our Race. Servant of God, Rest from thy blest employ. The battle fought, the victory won, enter Thy Master's joy." Dr. Moton responded with remarks of gratitude in the behalf of the faculty and students. Benediction was offered by Rev. C. C. Galloway.
Visits to the Shops
The distinguished visitors were further entertained by dinners at the various homes of the teachers, a reception by the Faculty of the Academic Department, and a banquet in the Teachers' Dining Room, Tumpkins Hall, at which time Dr. Moton, principal acted as toastmaster and introduced a number of members of the party whose responses were both witty and humorous.
Amid the strains of Tuskegee's famous band, the following menu was served:
MENU
Grape Fruit Cocktail
Consomme of Alabama Beef
Croutons
Chicken a la Southern
Spinach and Eeegs Creamed Peas
Tuskegee Yams
Dorothy Hall Rolls Blackberry Jelly
Kansas Salad Lee Wafers
Booker T. Washington Cream
The party also visited the various departments, went over the Farm, through the town of Tuskegee, out to the Harris Barrett and the New Rising Star School. On Thursday evening, the members of the party took leave of their old friends and new acquaintances made while here, who were at the station together with Dr. Moton and a large group of students, to bid them gas-speed on their journey.
As the train pulled out and slowly went around the curve out of sight, the men were crowded on the platform waving their handkerchiefs, trying to catch the last glimpse of their friends and hear the last strains of the band. As they left Dr. Moton turned to a group nearby and said, "I have never seen a parallel case where the students were so enthusiastic over visitors as with our Missouri friends. A number of the students met me on the grounds and asked if I would arrange for another meeting, so that they could hear the other members of the party. That, you know is unusual and is one of the significant things in connection with out visitors, Professor Lee and his party.

St. Monica's Colored Catholic Church
MADRID
The eloquent Catholic Missionary of Cincinnati, Ohio.
On Sunday, June 6, at 10:30 a.m., the Very Rev. Andrew Henze, a most distinguished orator of Cincinnati, Ohio, will open a Week's Revival or Mission in St. Monica's Colored Church, 17th and Lydia, for the Colored people, Catholic and non-Catholic. A series of most interesting sermons and instructions will be given, and every Colored man, woman and child are kindly invited to attend. The opening sermon will be preached at 10:30 a.m., June 6, and every evening promptly at 8 o'clock there will be sermon and Benediction. Admission, of course, will be absolutely FREE.
The object of this Revival or Mission is to explain the sublime Christian Truths announced by the Church, and to impress upon everyone the one thing necessary for us all—to save our immortal soul. Furthermore, to reclaim those who have strayed away from God or who are addicted to any vice, to enable these to make their peace with God; to awaken the careless and indifferent to a better life; and to increase the fervor of the good and faithful. Hence the fervent and the careless, the good and the sinner, everyone without exception should attend this mission as everyone will be benefited.
If you are not a Catholic, come to hear what the Catholic Church is and what she teaches, especially about God, Jesus Christ and His Church, Confession and Communion, Marriage, Death, Judgment, Heaven, Hell.
\ Hear what the Church will do for you, how she explains the law of God, and how she helps us to be good and holy.
If you are a good, practical Catholic, come to be encouraged, to become better and persevere to the end.
If you are a careless Catholic, come to be awakened to new fervor.
If you are a fallen-away Catholic, come convert and do penance and the Lord will have mercy on your soul.
Come and bring your friends and neighbors. Everybody welcome.

OLD CITY H
The graduating exercises of nurses of the Colored Department of the General Hospital will be held next Monday night at 8:15 in the auditorium of the Paseo Y. M. C. A. The address to the graduating class will be delivered by Kansas City's matchless orator and editor, Dr. Burris A. Jenkins, of the Kansas City Post; and with Dr. Jenkins' known reputation for justice and fair play to our people, the auditorium should be crowded to its capacity. Excellent musical numbers will also be rendered by some of our best talent. The admission is free. The Baccalaureate sermon for the class will be preached at Allen Chapel Sunday morning by Rev. J. B. St. Felix Isaacs. On Tuesday evening a promenade and reception will be tendered the class at Garrison Square. Dr William J. Thurkins State.
KEEP OFF THE GRASS.
In the territory occupied by our people the Park Board has resodded and beautified all of the waste places that were disfigured by the tramping of hundreds of irresponsible people over the grass plots and flower beds, and every Negro who appreciates the fitness of things should appoint himself a committee of one to assist in keeping these fools and loafers who have no respect for appearance off the grass. If you can't do it, call an officer.
(By the Associated Negro Press.)
Chicago, Ill., May 24.—The three big Methodist conferences have met and concluded their work of electing bishops and settling many questions of church polity. At Des Moines the Methodist Episcopal Branch broke its Negro Bishop deadlock of more than twenty-five years and elected Dr. R. E. Jones, editor of the Southwestern Christian Advocate, and Dr. M. W. Clair of Washington, D. C., Bishops to superintend the work among the Negro membership of the church.
W H Y?
A subscriber of the Sun writes us to know why an African Methodist Episcopal Minister can only be allowed to serve a charge five consecutive years while a bishop supposed to be governed by the same rules and discipline can stay fourteen years or for that matter for life. While the Sun does not desire to enter into a controversy over this seeming disparity in the merits of the two elements quoted, it very earnestly refers the writer to Bishop Henry Blanton Parks to whom he doubtless alludes and ask him if he has the courage why these things are. Personally, the Sun believes in the vernacular that "what's good for the goose is good for the gander" and that if a preacher can't stay but five years, neither should a bishop. Is that plain, dear subscriber?

DR. BUNDY DELIVERS TWO NOT.
ABLE ADDRESSES.
Dr. Leroy N. Bundy the central figure in the East St. Louis riots in 1917 and who has been persecuted as have few men of the race, delivered a wonderful address at the Second Baptist church, Tenth and Charlotte streets last Sunday afternoon at 2:30 which made distinct impression upon all his hearers. Prefacing his address, a very fitting solo was rendered by Rev. W. W. Russell and a stiring and eloquent address was made by Rec. T. H. Wiseman of Columbia, S. C., after which Mrs. Bundy was presented to the audience and in a few well chosen words thanked the people of Kansas City for the many kindnesses shown her distinguished husband, Nelson C. Crews in the name of the Bundy Defense Committee called for an offering to assist Dr. Bundy in prosecuting his appeal before the Supreme Court and with the assistance of Prof. Lee, Mr. N. S. Adams, Drs. T. A. Jones and E. C. Bunch and Secretary Smith of the Y. two hundred fifty five dollars was given for the cause. Hon. Charles H. Calloway, one of Dr. Bundy's attorneys presided at both meetings and tittingly introduced the speaker of the hour.
At St. Stephen's Baptist Church Sunday night hundreds of people literally fought to get into this spacious edifice to hear Dr. Bundy again and Rev. J. W. Hurst, P. P., pastor was campelled to issue orders to his deacons to admit no more when nearly two thousand people had been admitted into the room.
After singing by the choir and a short sermon by Rev. Porter of Litle Rock, the pastor in a stirring ad dress introduced Judge Calloway who briefly presented Dr. Bundy who made what the Editor considered one of the most remarkable, fervent and eloquent addresses to which he has ever listened. At its conclusion Mr. Crews, Dr. Miller, Deacons Lyons and Moore took the offering which amounted to $208.85. While here Dr. Bundy was entertained at the beautiful home of Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Calloway and on Monday he and Mrs. Bundy with a number of friends were the guests at an elaborate dinner at the home of Dr. and Mrs. D. Madison Miller. They left Tuesday for Oklahoma to fill a series of engagements.
CHAPLAIN SCOTT ENTERTAINED
Chaplain O. J. W. Scott of the 10th Cavalry, who has been attending the General Conference in St. Louis, Mo. spent several days in the city visiting friends and preached a delightful and highly appreciated sermon at Alen Chapel last Sunday night. He also spoke briefly to his many friends of the Second Baptist Church Sunday morning. On Tuesday night he was the guest of honor at a smoker at a Community Center given by Alla Temple No. 6, of which he is an honored member and was warmly greeted by the Nobles who were out in large numbers. Chaplain Scott delivered a very inspiring and instructive address, urging the race to be good citizens, to be loyal to their country and its flag and to build racial institutions to which all may point with pride. Illustrious Noble Emmett Spruell was master of ceremonies, which position he filled in the most acceptable manner. Dainty and appetizing refreshments were served by a committee of ladies consisting of Mrs. Cella Johnson, Loyal Lady Ruler of the Golden Circle; Mrs. Minnie L. Crosthwait, and Mrs. Miley Wallace.
MR. J. J. MATTJOY,
PROBABTION OFFICER, WRITES
CONCERNING CHILDREN'S HOME
To the Editor of The Kansas City Sun:
Rumor has been current that the county authorities have not been considerate of the needs of the Children's Home. As an official of the department, whose duty requires me to be in constant touch with this and similar institutions in the county, I know that there was an appropriation of five hundred dollars made by the honorable county court last January, and the sum of $380 during the current month; and along with other interested citizens, I might ask, what disposition has been made of these funds? Before criticism is indulged in, investigation should always be had and those intrusted with public funds should apply them in a manner that will allay criticism and along lines that will meet the approval of those authorizing expenditures.
Yours for the race,
J. J. Mattlov.

HORATIO BOTTOMLEY TO
AMERICAN AMBASSADOR
To His Excellency John Davis, United
States Ambassador, 4, Grosvenor
Gardens, S. W.
Sir: I have the honor to inform you that I have received from the National Association for the Advancement of Coloured People a record of barbary by citizens of the United States which must scandalize humanity and civilization everywhere. This record is in the form of printed matter and illustrations. The printed matter is a selection of appalling accounts of Negro lynchings from United States newspapers. Last year alone it is reported that 14 Negroes were burned; 31 were shot; 24 were hanged; 2 beaten to death; 1 was cut to pieces—all for the fiendish entertainment of your countrymen in public places. From time to time, Excellency, the high-souled Senate of the United States, its still more high-souled newspapers, and not a small portion of its peerless people have busied themselves with moral lectures to this country on its internal affairs, accompanied by numerous admonitions and therats. I suggest to your Excellency that you should do everything in your power to induce your noble, unselfish compatriots to put an end within their own borders to the infamilies to which I have alluded.—From "John Bull" English Weekly.

What You Can Buy For $40.00
In Everywoman Nobody knows. ‘
Where the high cost of clothing is going Nobody KNOWS.
Following TRUTH and saving from $25.00 to $40.00 on a suit is something EVERY-
BODY should know.
This is not a, 1-hour, 1-day, or a week sale, It is simply this: I bought 100 suits
irom a bankrupt tailoring house. The actual value of these suits are worth $65.00, and up.
Who can buy a 1407, Blue Serge or afancy Brown or Gray worsted handtailored
for $40.00, T CAN, because I bought these suits at a price I can afford to sell them.
These Suits were hand-tailored for some particular individuals who paid $20.00 or
more on their suits. Possibly the lack of finances forced the tailor to close his doors,

JOHN BARRYMORE IS STAR OF "DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE."
Stevenson's Famous Story is translated into Remarkable Paramount Artcraft Picture.
Robertan Louis Stevenson's powerful story, "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde," has been translated to the screen with John Barrymore in the leading role and will be shown at the Panama Theatre for two days commencing Sunday, May 30. This declared to be one of the most remarkable pictures ever filmed, and the performance of Mr. Barrymore, it is claimed, is a worthy companion to that of Richard Mansfield, who appeared in the same part in the stage version of the story.
The plot, as is well known, has as its central figure a young London physician, Dr. Jekyll, whose tender-heartedness is exceeded only by his all-absorbing interest in his chosen profession and his scientific investigations. He is in love with an innocent, beautiful girl, Millicent Carew, her father, Sir George Carew. is a famous man about town. Dr. Jekyll is persuaded by Sir George to accompany him to a low music hall. From this experience, Jekyll is led to experiment with a liquid that will separate the good and evil in a man into two distinct bodies. He evolves such a drug, administers it to himself and becomes not only Jekyll, the doctor-philanthropist, but also Hyde, a misshapen, evil brute. Gradually the Hyde side of his character overmasters Jekyll and after stirringly dramatic scenes, he succumbs. Only after his death is the dual character of his personality revealed.
Martha Mansfield is Mr. Barrymore's leading woman, and the picture, which is a Paramount Artcraft, was directed by John S. Robertson.
One of the most important events of the times will be the nomination of a President of the United States this year. The people of our group will be called upon to vote for the nomination of the various candidates. Never before in the history of the race have our people been so thoroughly determined that justice must prevail. Their newspapers are in the forefront in this respect. No newspaper anywhere must falter in the great task before us. We are in the period now when only true manhood counts.

When Lionel Barrymore played "The Copperhead" on the stage, men and women cried like children, then arose from their seats and cheered. Now it is on the screen with Barrymore in the title role. Built upon a bigger scale, with thousands of people taking part, the scenes taken in the very locations of the story, "The Copperhead" as it is seen on the film is a farm greater play than the stage production.
It tells a friend of Lincoln who served in disgrace when he could have served with honor—branded a "traitor" by his wife, family and friends, convicted of murder unjustly, stoned and jeered, he was Lincoln's friend. Lincoln alone knew why "The Copperhead," served—who he was. And Lincoln's reward to his friend was a letter and the flag that flew at Vicksburg. Milt Shanks, the Copperhead, was Lincoln's confidential Secret Service Man.
The wonderful scenes of the picture are, the Copperheads oath to President Lincoln, his secret intrigues with the foes of the Union, his fight in the clash between the "Copperheads" and the "Yanks," his false imprisonment for murder, his sacrifice when spurned by his wife and son—then the inspiring, splendid end!
Those who will see this drama, will leave the theater better citizens, finer patriots, and more ardent admirers of Abraham Lincoln than ever before.

MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATED MILKPORES FIRST IN SERVICE
The Sun was honored with a very
pleasant call from one of its best
friends and oldest subscribers, Mr. S.
Bellamy, 3334 Harrison St.
The Elmeadow Amusement Park,
consisting of twelve acres of beautiful
woodland, owned and operated by and
for Colored people, will have its for-
mal opening June 6th. Watch this
paper for announcements.
It is sincerely hoped that our people will turn out in large numbers to the celebration of Decoration Day at Highland Cemetery. The Ministerial Alliance has arranged an impressive program and they bid everybody come and participate. Rev. William Alphin of the Christian Church has charge of the arrangements.
They say that all things come to those that wait and this is being amply demonstrated by our genial friend, R. L. Horkins, the proprietor of the splendid Haberdashery at 2418 Vine street, who not only has built up a splendid business but who has a charming wife, a beautiful baby, and to give them plenty of air and enjoyment he has purchased a new Ford sedan, which makes him envied by his less fortunate brethren who may not have one of the four things which he so richly enjoys.
Dr. J. R. A. Crossland of St. Joseph, ex minister to Liberia, received the unusual honor at the late Republican State Convention of having cast for him every vote in the Convention, and in view of the fact that rumors have been prevalent that an attempt will be made to reduce the delegation to four, it is conceded by all that in view of the unusual vote Dr. Crossland received, he is bound by all the rules of the game to be one of the delegates. The Sun sincerely hopes that no attempt will be made to reduce the delegation, as all of the eight are representative men and women who were honestly elected, and to attempt to divide the delegation now would cause a rupture in the party in this state that would seriously theraten the splendid chances we now have to win an overwhelmingly Republican victory Crossland must be seated!
ANTI-BOSS
It is amusing to one who knows to read the list of "Patriots" who have "drafted" to "run" on the anti-boss ticket to "beat Marks" (not the Democratic ticket) next fall. Four came from the Eleventh ward alone, a ward which has been kept Republican by the Negroes alone and yet they (the Negroes) are ignored. Constantly in their deliberations, Fred Richardson is proposed for Sheriff; Jas. H. Austin for Circuit Judge; Cameron Orr for Prosecutor and Henry Page for Public Administrator. It is to laugh.
NEGRO HEADQUARTERS
The Appomato Club's new home will be the "star" headquarters for the visitors. It is rumored that the "big gun" conferences will be held in the palatial building which has been recently purchased by this representative social organization. The Vincennes Hotel will be the headquarters for the "Press Gang" where the Associated Negro Press will have a suite of rooms in which it will provide entertainment and "Q. T." conference provisions for the "bunch." Chicago points with great pride to the Vincennes Hotel. It is the real stuff" and was chosen as the headquarters for the members of the "Fourth Estate" by the director of the Associated Negro Press because of its handsome appointments and efficiency organized service. An "Open Day and Night" sign has been ordered, by Editor Brascher, and the race's penwilders are given a cordial invitation to gather as often as they may see fit and stay as long as the resire clings to them. The Idlewild Hotel is also one of the show places of the city, and many of the visitors will be found there.

—That the professional borrower should be put in the workhouse.
—That he who succeeds is lucky but he who achieves is one of the elect.
—That the man who falls in water gets wet but he who falls in love is liable to get foolish.
—That June brides don't seem to be numerous from present indications as they have been in the past.
—That if good manners is a gift there are a whole lot of Negroes here who ought to make themselves a present.
—That the fellow who "puffs" himself up reminds Betty and Sam very much of a balloon. When the air is exhausted, there's no more to him.
That if you want to succeed in business, study the methods used by Jeff of 19th and Vine streets. He knows how.
That if men refuse to abide by rules of their own making they must not expect other to be guided by the same rule.
That some people complain no matter what the season may be and if they could have January weather in July, their dispositions would still be ugly.

Many unusual angles that have never before been embodied in a Constance Talmadge production make "In Search of a Sinner," one of the most distinctive offerings to be shown

Do Good Men Die Early.
For the first time, Miss Talmadge is shown at the opening of a picture as a married woman. She is young and beautiful and married at the age of twenty. Her husband is twice her ages an old fogy whose goodnes bores his lively wife. The Emerson-Loos collaboration cleverly made this unsatisfactory husband "so good that the Lord put him away with the rest of the angels," thus leaving Constance Talmadge as the heroine of the story, free to romp through four reels of spicy comedy, searching for a sinner.
"I'm so tired of good men that I never want to see another as long as I live," says the dashing Georgiana

"Front Line Sunday Schools and How to Build Them"
THE KANSAS CITY SUN. SATURDAY. MAY 29. 1920
as she heads for Central Park, bent on finding a man who will show her a thrill.
BASE BALL.
The first official game of the new Negro National Baseball League in this city will be played Saturday at 3:00 o'clock at Association Park between the famous A. B. Cs. of Indianapolis and the hard-hitting and triumphant Monarchs of this city. Kansas City is proud of its new team and the splendid record they're made on the road since the opening of the season and undoubtedly the fans will give the team a rousing reception upon its first appearance on the home grounds. A big parade will take place at 1:00 o'clock over the principal streets in which all the fans are invited to decorate their cars and take part. It will be headed by the famous Second Regiment band and two teams in uniform.
On Sunday it is predicted that fully ten thousand people will witness the game. The Monarchs have beaten the St. Louis Giants, the ABCs, the fast Dayton Marcos and were beaten on a questionable decision in 11 innings by Rube Foster's Giants last Sunday in Chicago by a score of 6 to 5. Turn out boys and give the tea ma royal reception. The line up for the game Sunday will probably be as follows:

Tomorrow and Monday we celebrate—or should celebrate—Decoration Day—the day when we should commemorate by our reverence for those Men in Blue, the Boys of the Union, who so valently fought for Humanity and Our Cause. Let us all try to show our appreciation for their suffering and battles, for their loss of limb and loss of life. It is asking only a little, a very little—just the expression of respect and remembrance.
Tomorrow, Sunday and Monday, May 8th and 31st, the Lincoln Theater will show the "Copperhead." A real tribute to Abraham Lincoln and the noble men who surrounded him. It might be explained here that a copperhead was a southern sympatizer in a northern state. This picture is a rare treat to our people. When it played at the Newman theater, thousands of people were turned away daily. Never has any drama created a profound impression upon the public than this wonderful picture.

IS IT ALL TO BE FORGOTTEN SO
SOON?
Among the younger people of our
race there seems to be a tendency to
drift away from the allegiance due to

She was abl yasslisted by Mr. Alexander Gatewood, the coming tenor of the race. The recital was held in historic Frazier Hall.
