Beautiful Magnificent Superb That's What Thousands, Young and Old, Black and White, are Saying About Dr. Theodore Smith's Up-to-the-Minute Drug Store Since the Installation of His New Furniture and Fixtures and Enlargement of His Building DR. SMITH A REAL RACE LEADER The splendid achievement of this popular Business Man was not accomplished in a day, but is the result of earnest, patient and untiring energy. Interior of the beautiful drug store of Dr. Theodore Smith at 18th Street and Tracy Ave., Kansas City, Missouri. Dr. Smith is seen standing near the cigar counter. The story of Theodore Smith, Kansas City's pioneer Druggist, and his achievements read like the story from Alladin's Fables; so brilliant and successful have been his endeavors along business lines. Dr. Smith, who is yet a young man, came to this city some 18 years ago from the capital of the Nation to take charge of the first drug store that had been established by Colored people in this city which was owned by the late Bishop C. T. Shaffer and one or two local physicians. After remaining with them Interior of the beautiful drug store Street and Tracy Ave., Kansas City, near the cigar counter. about a year, Dr. Smith decided to go in business for himself and opened a very modest little establishment about two blocks east of this first drug store, 908 East Twelth Street, where he had only a few shelves, a handful of drugs and one of the old fashioned goose-necks for a soda fountain. But imbued with the determination to make good in his chosen profession and fruitful field of endeavor Dr. Smith applied himself assiduously to building up his business with such remarkable success that in three years he had a chain of three drug stores, one at 908 East-12th street, one at Independence and Campbell, and one at the present location, 18th Street and Tracy Avenue. But so exacting and burdensome became the task of operating all three of these establishments that six years ago Dr. Smith decided to merge them into one grand establishment and the magnificent Pharmacy now located at 18th and Tracy, is the result of his determined efforts in those strenuous days. So large did Dr. Smith's business become that it was necessary for him last spring to secure a lease for ten years on the adjoining store room to the store he has occupied for a number of years, and both storerooms were then placed into the hands of a contractor for remodelling and decorating and their work completed a few days ago makes his spacious storerooms easily the most attractive and covering the largest amount of floor space of any like establishment in the country. The walls and ceilings are handsomely and tastily decorated and upon the floors is the most costly linoleum purchasable in beautiful tile design; while the fixtures are of elegant mahogany giving a rich and luxurious appearance to the entire surroundings. Dr. Smith had installed some two years ago beautiful plate glass revolving serving tables in his establishment which at that time were the finest and latest thing in drug store soda service; these still remain, but in addition to meet his increased trade Dr. Smith has had built several mahogany and glass booths with beautifully upholstered leather settees and the latest thing in serving tables with brilliant plate glass mirrored tops something not re of Dr. Theodore Smith at 18th Missouri. Dr. Smith is seen standing seen in any other establishment. Each booth is capable of seating eight people. There are also built in mahogany telephone booths with comfortable seats and directory holders where one can be absolutely secluded and shut off from any noise on the outside. The most impressive feature in this beautiful establishment is the sparkling, modern and exquisitely beautiful soda fountain which is the most complete we have ever seen. It extends sixteen feet with massive marble top with a back bar of the same material and finish with solid plate glass mirrors, massive in their proportions, mirrors alone costing more than three hundred dollars. The fountain contains twelve containers for holding the different fruit extracts, also elegant curved handled silver ladles for cream depositories of which there are four on each side of the fountain proper. The back bar is lined with white enamel throughout, icing receptacles and is arranged to hold milk bottles, grape juice and other delicious non-intoxicating beverages which are found on sale at first-class soda fountains. In addition Dr. Smith has the only electric carbonater in the city where his operators manufacture their own soda water making it absolutely fresh and sparkling at all times. The whole massive structure is brilliantly lighted and magnificent domed lights are suspended from the ceiling giving a most beautiful effect to the entire establishment. Large unobscured plate glass windows give a brilliant view to the interior and compels every member of this splendid establishment. Dr. Smith has been ably assisted during the past five years by Dr. M. L. Flinn, one of the most courteous and most popular members of our race group you could hope to come in contact with while Dr. Smith's courteous and affable disposition makes for his establishment a permanent and constantly increasing patronage. In spite of his arduous business activity Dr. Smith finds time for social and civic engagements and is noted for his very liberal contribution to public institutions of merit. It is a custom with him at Easter time to send a generous check to all deserving churches in the city and it is seldom a destitute member of the race appeals to him that his needs are not immediately relieved. For two years Dr. Smith maintained a Free Clinic at 1300 East 18th street, employing two physicians, filled all prescriptions written by them at absolute cost and paid the entire expense for the maintenance of this worthy institution out of his own pocket. And in a social way he has entertained many of the most prominent and exclusive clubs and social organizations at his own expense and is rated as a Chesterfield by those who know him personally. In Dr. Smith's spacious stockrooms adjoining his drug store is a variety of drugs, supplies, et cetera, making it one of the most complete reserve stocks owned, by the race anywhere. And to epitomize everything to be found and expected in afirst class complete and up to date drug store can be found at Dr. Smith's. And it is quite a common thing when asked where certain drugs, periodicals, race papers, household necessities and so forth can be purchased, that invariably the answer is, "If you can't find it at so and so's, you can certainly find it at Dr. Smith's." Six years ago at Christmas time, just before Dr. Smith was leaving for Boston, his former home, to visit friends and relatives, The Sun asked him for an editorial expression that would be helpful to the struggling men and women of our racial group who were trying to succeed in business, and he gave us this brilliant and inspiring contribution which holds just as good today as it did when he penned it six years ago: "For more than a quarter of a century the white man contended that the Negroes were incapable of taking in the higher education. Such contentions must have been based on prejudice, because the Negro has not only measured arms with him in the present knowledge, but in many instances has outdistanced him. The American Negro has invaded almost every field known to human endeavor, such as art, science, literature, industrialism, commercialism, etc., add with all of his achievements the white man has failed to give him consideration. And I believe this is largely due to his economic weakness. Were we a factor in the business and the financial world we would be in a position to force recognition and respect. No race of people can expect to be morally strong that is economically weak. The Negro women have done remarkably well when you consider they have no protection from their own race, and the white man looks upon them as his legitimate prey. The Negro women should demand GEORG W. K. LOVE The above cut is a likeness of G20. W. K. Love, founder and president of Love's Theaters who is celebrating his 2nd anniversary as a showman. The Love Theater was opened December 11th, 1918, and since that time has shown a majority of the first class attractions and has gained for itself a national reputation. It is o the credit of Mr. Love more than any other showman that our people are able in this city to see any worthwhile motion picture without being "Jim Crowed." Nelson C. Crews.....Editor and Owner Willa Glenn Peebles.....General Manager OBA S BEEN ACC BROWN SKIN more of their men. WHI' The young girls should get behind their sweethearts and the Negro women should get behind their husbands, and rout them out of their ten-dollar-a-week jobs and force them to enter into business or callings that will enable them to get better returns and care for them in a better way, which will give them a standing that will not only help them but give a better standing to the Negro race in general. My advice to the Negro is to enter into business now, because I believe it is the keynote to the solution of the so-called race problem and the road that leads to economic power. The white man has taken on a new hobby; he now tells you, "Negroes will not support their business and professional men." This insidious statement is made to frighten and discourage the Negro from entering into business competition with him. The Negroes are entitled to all the business in all of the Negro districts in Kansas City, and the only reason why he does not get it is because he does not go after it. I entered business at 908 East 12th street, ten years ago, with a few old shelves nailed up against the walls, and a gooseneck for a soda fountain, and with a handful of drugs, and to-day I have the best equipped Negro Drug Store in the United States. I was the first Negro to operate a string of three drug stores in the United States Today I have really holdings in Boston and North Carolina, and unlimited credit and a first class rating with Bradstreet. My object for giving you this information as to my assets is to prove to you that the white man's statement is untrue regarding the Negroes not patronizing each other. My business is largely composed of Negro patronage. To one who has kept in touch with the wonderful progress and development of Dr. Smith's business, realize that he must have been imbued both with prophecy and a broad vision, because the many things he desired have come to pass; and he owns today, without incumbrance or financial obligation of any character, a plant easily worth in the aggregate forty thousand dollars. The Sun, along with the rest of our loyal racial group in this community, is proud of the wonderful achievements of Dr. Theodore Smith. Hon. Jas. E.

ANK CQUITTED IN "VAMP" WHITE PREACHER IN VICE TOILS Nabbed by Police While Entwined In the Arms of a Brown Skinned "Vamp." (Special to the Sun.) Savannah. Go., Dec. 3—Efforts of the police to clean out the vice district of this city, this week resulted in the rounding up of Rev. C. B. McDaniels, prominent white evangelist of Atlanta, Georgia. The resort has one of the worst reputations in the city and Rev. McDaniels was nabbed while entwined in the arms of one of the dark skinened "vamps." He was hauled into a cell of the city jail and later asked to be tried by a jury of preachers. His excuse was that, he was conducted to the house by a hackman to whom he had applied for a quiet place to rest, and that he was unacquainted with the sections of the city. When asked what he was doing in the room with the vampire, Rev. McDaniels hesitated for a moment and was fined $100. McCRARY ACQUITTED. William McCrary, proprietor of a lunch room and soft drink parlor near 18th and Woodland, who shot and killed J. J. Mattjoy, probation officer and prominent politician, several months ago, was acquitted in Judge Latshew's division of the criminal court last Wednesday. McCrary was ably defended by Attorney Charles H. Calloway, who was assisted by J. B. Gibbs. Lawyer Calloway also secured the conviction of the Negro who shot and killed Rev. W. A. Campbell about a year ago, although he escaped with a sentence of two years in the penitentiary. Those who promised and those who desire to help Mr. McCrary in his defense fund can leave their contributions at the office of the Sun with A. V. Monholland, City scavenger; or at McCrary's residence, 1510 East 18th street with his wife, as he is unable to get around on account of illness. BAMBOULA COMING.

Several new scholars in the Sunday school and a large attendance in the C. E. Society last Sunday. The pastor preached two strong sermons.... The W. H. & F. M.

The selection rendered by Mrs. Mickles Sunday morning inspired the whole church.

Others who gave nice baskets were Sisters Barber, Harrison and Bates Sister Emery knows how to prepare good things to eat....The pastor was in Jefferson City two days this week. Carmel Nut Ice Cream at Jeff's. WARD CHAPEL ENTERAINMENT The delightful little playlet Miss Fearless & Co., put on by the ladies of Ward Chapel was as plenid success both artistically and financially. All the ladies which included Mrs. Percy Webb, Mrs. Sadie Wyatt, Miss Alberta Morgan, Mrs. Luther Oliver, Mrs. Alma Browning and Mesdames Horsey, Ridley and Oliver were exceedingly good; while Mrs. Geo, Dorsey as "Miss Euphema" was a scream from start to finish. Mr. Oliver and Mr. Davis also acquitted themselves well. Many requests have been made for a reposition. Dr. Horsey is surely bringing things to pass at Ward. EBENEZER CHURCH. A great spiritual fervor prevailed in Ebenezer on Sunday morning. Dr. Osborne preached one of the most powerful and touching sermons we have ever heard him preach. His subject was "My Father's House." He drew practical lessons from the surroundings of an earthly home, showing just what it takes to make good earthly homes. He then applied it with power and effect to the Heavenly home. Eleven persons united with the church and fourteen came forward for prayers. He preached a short but effective sermon on "Bread Winning" at the evening service. The services were then turned over to the business men, Mr. W. G. Mosley in charge. Interesting talks on how to make better business opportunities for the race were given by Mr. G. A. Page, Sol. Smith, and S. D. Adkins. The United-We-Stand Club entertained the United-We-Stand Club entertained at the residence of the president, Mrs. Ella Thurman Monday evening...

One thousand worshipped at Bethel last Sunday....The Sunday school was crowded with the brightest boys and girls of the city. Prof. Moten demonstrates the fact that he is a master when it comes to managing children. You ought to visit Bethel's Sunday school and "Believe Me" it would inspire you....At 11 o'clock Rev. P. W. DeLyles, the Presiding Elder, preached an excellent sermon to a large and appreciative crowd....At 3 o'clock Rev. J. W. S. Lowe took us to eHaven in an imaginative charm which we enjoyed to the highest....At 6 o'clock the A. C. E. League, lead by that princely young man, Brother Irving Smith, held an interesting session. To say a large crowd was present is mildly stating it....At 8 o'clock Rev. P. W. DeLyles again took us on the Heavenly journey and made us see the beautiful city with its gates standing ajar and the Father welcoming us home. You ought to have been there. Many united with the church. If you want a seat at Bethel you will have to come early because the crowd gathers at the church before the hour of service. Dr. Dawson is preaching with a new gift these days. You ought to hear him. Hear his sermon Sunday on the "New Birth"....On Friday night last the members gave to our beloved pastor and his charming wife a surprise party. They reached the parsonage at 10:30 each one bearing a package and oh, how our pastor did smile and asked the parties to come back next week. After spending a few moments in singing and merry-making each one quietly passed out. Rev. and Mrs. Dawson thanked them and bid them God speed....Sunday evening at 6 o'clock the B. Y. P. U. of the Metropolitan Baptist Church of Kansas City, Kas., will render a program at Bethel. Everybody is invited. Come and greet the Kansas people....The Women's Drill Team of the Uniform Rank of K. P. will turn out in full uniform at Bethel Wednesday evening, December 15th. See the ladies....The Democrats conquered the Republicans, but look for the Republicans Sunday....Bethel was glad to have Hon. N. C. Crews mingling with us last Sunday. He is always a welcome visitor. Come again Hon. Crews and feel at home. Rev. A. W. Lightsey, Pastor. Sunday was a high day at Blue Valley. We were in a glorious meeting all day. Sunday morning the pastor delivered an excellent sermon. Sev- eral verses of the Scripture were read by different members and the pastor so beautifully explained each verse. Our Sunday School and B. Y. P. U. are both doing nicely. The E. B. Literary meets every Thursday evening. We invite the public to come and hear the interesting debate. Mr. and Mrs. Walker spent the week end at Odessa, Mo, with relatives. They reported a pleasant visit. Our sick are all improving. Mr. Leon Thompson is home from the Hospital. We hope he will soon recover. Trade the old one for a new one and have it Xmas morning. You are protected against price reduction by our guaranteed refund system.

Although our pastor was not present; we prayer for him a success while in Denver, Colo....Sunday school was good and largely attended....B. Y. P. P. was very good....At night we had with us Rev. W. H. Bohannah, whom we were delighted to have. He preached an instructive sermon....On last Thursday evening we had with us the pastor and choir of Ebenezer Church. Rev.

The Missionary Society held its monthly meeting with Mrs. Anna Lewis, 2310 Michigan avenue. Good attendance, fine spirit, excellent offering and bountiful luncheon. Their annual report will show their best Missionary year....The Brotherhood had a good meeting Thursday night. The program for Thursday night, December 16 will be special as the last meeting of the year....The attendance at all services went over the "high water" mark. It was Christian Education Rally Day. The church has pledged twelve hundred dollars for Christian education and made a fine showing in paying the first installment. The Bible School is leading with a growing attendance and sincere work on the part of all....Mrs. Alphin was not able to serve us at 11 o'clock and the minister was forced into service. Some of the choir members were tardy but the few held the fort until re-enforcement came and "business truly picked up."...The monthly official meeting of the officers of the church and heads of all departments was well attended and reports showed in all respects the best condition of the affairs of the church. They are at work on the annual report....The C. E. Society is rendering its best programs and increasing its attendance....The First Sunday in December went down on the right side of the ledger and we hope, indicates the entire month will be so placed; if so 1920 will go in history as the best year's service of the church....The Educational Rally will continue next Sunday. The minister will discuss "Jesus and the Story of Jonah" at both services for the purpose of information and modern lessons....Strangers and visitors welcome. We will send it. Jeff's. DR. DELYLE A PREACHER. Dr. P. H. DeLyle, the new presiding elder of the Kansas City district of the A. M. E. church is not only a great preacher but in the language of my very dear Southern friends he is both "a gully-washer and a trashburner." If you want to know what that means ask any southern man or woman. We heard him deliver last Sunday at Bethel one of the most spiritual as well as powerful sermons we have heard in years and he is unquestionably a valuable asset to the Church of Allen in this locality. The Rev. Mr. Dibble who has been conducting a series of services at the First Presbyterian church, Jefferson City, visited the School during the chapel period, Friday the 26th. He instantly gripped the attention of the student body with his rendition of our own folk songs (an unusual accomplishment for one of the Caucasian race) and held it throughout his very uplifting talk.

Best Proof of this Wonderful Kansas City, Mo., May 10, 1915. D. Moore & Co. Dear Sir: I wish to say to you in regard to your medicine, that it is simply wonderful. Having been bothered with indigestion for some considerable time and after trying everything I knew of, I decided to quit taking medicine. On hearing of your discovery and how wonderful it was, decided to give it a trial and the first dose gave me quick relief and happy to say have not had it since. I hope every person bothered with indigestion will give this medicine a trial. Respectfully, MISS JULIA IVORY, 2104 Vine. KIDNEY TROUBLE. Kansas City, Mo., 1918. D. Moore & Co. D. MOORE & CO. Dear Sir: I can't find words enough to express my thanks for the good Moore's Vigorine has done for me. I was down in my back and had that tired and sluggish feeling and all of my joints seemed to be stiff and with no life, but, the second dose that I took removed all of that and I wouldn't be without a bottle in my house. It makes me feel 10 years younger and I feel like a new man. SANFORD M. PATTerson, 1624 Cottage Ave. Prepared and Distributed by D. MOORE & CO. 2522 Michigan Avenue Kansas City, Mo.

It was the joint meeting of all Local Circles to make the class of candidates brought in. The class enrollment was 236. Of this number 152 were inducted into the mysteries of the Order that night, and the rest will be made in their respective Local Circles on their first monthly meeting. Many prominent men and women were in the class, among them Attorney L. A. Knox, Dr. O. D. Pyles, W. G. Mosely, Mrs. Evelyn Baldwin Mrs. Frankie Johnson Mr. H. A.

The Joining fee for the camp paign now running is $3.50. The cost to stay in the Order is only $1.25 per month and NO TAXES. Mr. Richmond, who has an office at 1834 Paseo, and says he must have 6,000 members by July, and at the rate that the order is increasing it looks as if he would exceed this number. After the class was made an elaborate luncheon was served by the members for the class. MANY VISITORS PRESENT There were many Friends, Members of the Order in other States, present, and these were introduced by the Supreme Supervisor, Mr. A. L. Richmond. Among the visitors who spoke were Friend Patterson of Arkansas, Friend Moore of Texas, Friend Baker of Tennessee. The Presidents of the Local Circles were introduced and made splendid talks after which the candidates were given an opportunity to express themselves, and all expressed themselves, saying that they thought the Royal Circle the greatest Fraternal Order that they had had the privilege of joining. The Supreme Supervisor, Mr. A. L. Richmond, prefaced his remarks after, explaining the benefits derived from being a Member of the Order by saying: I am a Member of eleven Fraternities, and they are all good, and doing a great work for Our Race, but the Royal Circle is the best, be cause it not only gives a Member the benefits while living, but also cares Your B Must get something new this bination perfume set contain a most beautiful package is Combination Set ...

Mr. Richmond, who has an office at 1834 Paseo, and says he must have 6,000 members by July, and at the rate that the order is increasing it looks as if he would exceed this number. After the class was made an elaborate luncheon was served by the members for the class. Ida M. Vaughn Circle Gives Candidate Flores, Design Mrs. Henrietta Arnold of 1763 Lydia street, who died on last Friday, was to have been made a member of the Royal Circle Tuesday night. She died suddenly not having been sick at all. The Supreme Supervisor sympathizes with the bereaved family, and is only sorry that Mrs. Arnold did not live to become a member as The Royal Circle would gladly have paid the claim, as Mrs. Arnold would have been entitled to half benefits, which would have been $75.00 and a monument placed at her grave. The policy of the Royal Circle is in full benefits after 90 days. Mrs. Vaughn who is President of the Circle to which Mrs. Arnold would have been a member, called her loyal Friends of the Circle together, and with the Supreme Supervisor gave a beautiful floral design, floating the colors and the name of the Royal Circle upon it. For information regarding the Royal Circle call Mr. A. L. Richmond, Bell Grand 2471 or 2048, or call at the office, 1834 Paseo. Best Girl is Christmas.

NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF COL ORED BASE BALL CLUBS, SEC- OND ANNUAL MEETING A GREAT SUCCESS. By Q. J. Gilmore, Suecial Representa tive of the Kansas City Sun. Indianapolis, Indiana, Dec. 4.—Promptly on the hour of 0 o'clock, Andrew Rube Foster, the President of the Association call the meeting to order. The meeting brought base ball magnates and newspaper men from every section of the country. The meeting was held in the large assembly room of the Y. M. C. A, C. I. Taylor, the big base ball mogul of the Indiana Capitol assisted by the leading citizens of Indianapolis spared no pains to make the visiting magnets and Sporting Editors feel at home. The following cities and base ball clubs were represented. Kansas City Monarchs, by J. L. Wilkinson, American Giants by Andrew Rube Foster, The Detroit Stars, by Tenny Blunt, Indianapolis A. B. C. Vs. by C. I. Taylor, The St. Louis Giants, by Charlie Mills, The Dayton Marcos, by John Mathias, The Chicago Giants, by Joe Green, The Bacharach Giants of Atlantic City, by John W. Connors of New York City, The Hildalts, by Edward Bolden of Philadelphia, The Cuan Stars, by Andrew Rube Foster Cleveland by G. J. Tate and L. R. W. Williams, Columbus, by Sol White Pittsburg, by A. M. Williams, and Nate Harris, Dr. Howard M. Smith and Harry St. Clair of Kansas City Mo., mingled with the magnets, hopping to buy a franchise in the league. The following Sporting Editors were present, Ira Lewis of the Pittsburg Courrier, Dave Wyatt, of the Chicago Whip, Frank Young of the Chicago Caged Defender, A. D. Williams of the Sport World, W. Knox of the Freeman, Jackson of the Ledger, and Q. J. Glimore, Kansas City Sun. The meeting adjourned at 9 p. m. Friday so that the visitors could attend a banquet arranged by C. I. Taylor and the business men of the city which was the greatest gathering of prominent men ever assembled around a table in the Hoosier Capitol It was 12:30 when Foster informed the base ball magnets to return to the Y. M. C. A. to finish some very important business which kept the magnets busy until 5 a. m. Saturday. Chief Foster issued orders to be on hands at 9 o'clock, and when the roll was called all answered present but Tenny Scene from "The Symbol of the 2, Monday and Tue Blunt of Detroit, and a committee was sent to escort the Michigan Magnet to the meeting. Tenny was found sound asleep in a taxi and informed the committee that he was afraid to go to bed. The meeting adjourned Saturday evening to meet next year in Detroit as the guest of Tenny Blunt the owner of the Detroit Stars Several important changes were made in the league for next season. The Dayton Marcos were transferred to Columbus, Ohio, and will be known as the Columbus Buckeyes. The Cuban Stars go to Cincinnati, and will be known as the Cincinnati Cuban Stars. The Bacharach Giants and the Hilldales, will be the Eastern representatives in the league. Cleveland and Pittsburg will be associate members of the league this year, and regular members the following season. Andrew Rube Foster was reelected President, and a regular schedule will be followed the coming season. The past season was a great success, and the league played to more than 700,000 fans. The league has been fortunate in securing for the coming season the National League Parks, in Cincinnati, and Brooklyn, N. Y., also the league parks in Philadelphia. Colored base ball men of Cleveland and Pittsburg, have secured grounds and have started the construction of model base ball plants. The Columbus, Ohio, team will use Neil Park, the home of the Columbus American Association team, Charles Mills, and his legal adviser, Judge Homer Phillips have started to enlarge the grounds in St. Louis and will be able to take care of 10,000 fans next season. Several exchanges of players were made during the meeting, the most notable one being the transfer of Jimmy Lyons to the American Giants. The o'possum supper which was scheduled for Friday night, was held on Thursday night when word was received that Q. J. Gilmore and Harry St. Clair were coming. They arrived Friday morning all smiles, thinking of the o'possum supper but when Dr. Howard M. Smith broke the sad news the Kansas City men started out to find Rube Foster and C. I. Taylor, who satisfied Gilmore and St. Clair by showing them where the supper was held. Dave Wyatt, the dean of Negro Sport Editors, was on hand early to greet the other scribes on their arrival. Frank Young of the Defender, and Ira Lewis of the Pittsburgh Courier have started for Detroit so as to be there in time for the meeting next year. Friday afternoon the thermpeter registered 125 degrees during a certain discussion. C. I. Taylor and Charlie Mills secumbed to the heat. Yes, we all got rather warm but the big Mogul himself. Col. Knox, the Dean of Negro Newspaper men visited the meeting Friday afternoon but had to leave. It was too hot for him. A. D. Williams, the Editor of the Sport World was a rather busy man during the meeting, yes too busy to take notes. He spent some time on the front porch with a very prominent young lady of the City. J. W. Connors, the big noise in base ball of New York City, and Edward Bolden, the Philadelphia Magnet, who have fought each other for the past five years, not even being on speaking terms, arrived in the Convention City together, and not only stopped at the same hotel, but slept in the same bed. We just could not believe it, and to make sure, we had a flash light picture taken of the two big eastern magnets while they slept. The picture will be published in all of the Eastern papers. Negro base ball in the East is now due a great boom. The Bacharach Giants are now playing ball in Cuba, Charleston, Day, and Clark of the A. B. C's are in the line up. Dr. Ward who served as major during the late war and was the ranking Negro Medical Officer acted as toast master during the banquet Friday night. Att'y Ranson, the General Counsel and Manager for Madam C. J. Walker Company was one of the chief speakers. Mr. DeFrantz of the Y. M. C. A. did everything in his power to make the visitors comfortabled during the sessions which were held in the "Y" building. Yes, the boys had plenty of good cigars to smoke. Thanks to Mr. DeFrantz. The Negro Press was given the use of the Associated Press wires during the meeting. Rube Foster left immediately after the meeting for Hot Springs, Ark., for a much needed rest before taking his team to Palm Beach, Fla., next month. John Mathias the owner of the Dayton Marcos should have brought some e Unconquered,' at Love's Theater No. Tuesday of next week. one with him to look after his interest, as poor old John slept during most of the sessions. C. I. Taylor lived up to his reputation, it was C. I., that kept us up in the all night session. The Indianapolis Elks entertained Q. J. Gilmore, the Scribe from Kansas City, at the Union Club Club. Most of the visitors remained over Sunday. Connors and Bolden left Saturday afternoon for New York. Gilmore left Saturday night for Columbus, Ohio, to spend Sunday with his mother. Late reports has it that Dr. Howard M. Smith and Harry (Wolf) St. Clair have obtained interest in the Columbus, Ohio, franchise. Good luck boys. Don't let it rain on you. Rodriguez, Ray, Mothel, Donaldson, Crawford, Currie, Forman, Smith, Carr, Mendez, Moore, Mendez, Portuande, McNair, Rogan, Harper, Arumi, Woods and Hawkins will report to the Monarchs in California. Hawkins who is a former officer in the army is considered the greatest first baseman in the game. Carr will be put on third, allowing Portuando, to go to short, his regular position. Owner Wilkinson has several new men in view and the fans can rest assured that the Monarchs will be stronger than they were the past season. Riggins and Jack Marshall will go to the American Giants in exchange for Jimmy Lyons. The Hildaldes team which was out side of organized base ball last season will be ag reat asset to the League, and players from now on will have no place to jump to when dissatisfied with organized ball.

The big new all-star Negro production, "The Symbol of the Unconquered," by Oscar Micheaux, to be shown at Love's Theatre No. 2, 12th street and Woodland avenue, seven days, commencing Sunday, December 12th, is the first Negro production to reach the screen with a story of Negro life without the "Uncle Tom" rot. Mr. George W. K. Love of the Love Bros. Amusement Co. personally censored the production after it had passed the Censor Board, and it is understood that all the "Jim Crow" stuff was cut out and the production brought up to the high standard of the productions shown in Love's Theatres. The story is by a Negro and the camcra work and art titles were done by Negroes and a credit to the race. The art titles are the finest that has been seen in a Negro production and the words "Negro," Colored, etc., are done in capital letters. Nothing seems to have been overlooked by the director in making his production worth while. This production was rushed from the studio at Ft. Lee, N. J., for a preshowing in Kansas City, and every Negro in the two Kansas Citys should turn out to see this production, which will be shown in our own Love's Theatre N. 2 by Negroes and for Negroes. ```markdown ``` DO YOU NEED WORK?

The Colored Chamber of Commerce has before it possibilities for much constructive work during the coming year and the Sun sincerely hopes it will bend its efforts to acquire as much business property on Eighteenth street and on Vine street as they can possibly buy.

Nearly all the leading Negro journals of the country have raised their prices during the past year.

But The Sun, one of the best published, still is five cents a copy or $2.00 per year. Can you beat it? —That most men are not tempted; they go around looking for that which gets them into trouble. —That a friend who lends you money when you're broke is more worthy of praise than any hero on the battlefield. The Homestead Development Association, a new corporation doing business in our city, but with an established reputation in Michigan and the Northwest, publishes an article in this week's paper that should be carefully read and should have the earnest consideration of every member of our racial group who is desirous of improving their financial condition. Their representatives are men of the highest type and their prospectus particularly appeals to hard-headed, sober progressive and determined men and women who believe that the future holds splendid opportunities in store for them. Read their announcement —That the fellow who can't deliver the goods doesn't get any sympathy unless he appeals to the old fellows who alone know how it is. —That the fellows who have been living by their "wits" last summer are going to do some tall scrambling for pork chops this winter. —That if you fail to take advantage of our special rate which begins December 15, don't blame anybody but yourself for having to pay full subscription rate. —That now men are fighting for their right of suffrage because they claim that there can never be any real equality between sexes until they are permitted to search the pockets and "banks" of their wives as they do them. —Call Fairfax 380 or Faifax 4422.

The LINCOLN VAUDEVILLE 60 MINUTES AMONG THE FOLLIES OF FUNLAND—CLASSY GIRLS—PRETTY COSTUMES— CLEVER COMEDY—BEGINNING MONDAY "Mary Allen Comes to Town SPARKS FROM STARKS By Chas. A. Starks. MY SOUL WANDERS A little thought of romance every now and then, may strike a happy chord in the dormant lives of men. Now the heart ponders o'er the old loves, dreaming back to the bye gone days, the forget-me-nots of yesterday. What unsought thing may turn us back to rummage again around the old explorations we can not tell. Or the ringing of many bells or notes of a bird. We know not, but it comes And we bask in its delight, Sweet like mellow plums Eaten in years of youth when the sun was always bright. Ah, one is apt to grow old too young. This is the tragedy that befalls the many who have gone too fast, whose gait is like the fleety horse trained for the sport—great, but oh how ephemeral! Reaching the zenith of speed today, only to retrograde tomorrow. But why doth my soul shine tday? Why is my heart arused from the old lethargy? Again the blood courses and I felt glad, yet I know not why, as I say It may be anything: A chime or some familiar note, A face or thought of spring Stidiking the magic chord which causes my soul to float! COLOR PREFERENCE. Many Negroes pay tribute to the white standard of superiority totally unconscious of what they are doing. In this they are hypnotic subjects of a dominant thought of the Anglo Saxon. I confess that I, myself, was once a victim of the practice until I emancipated myself by learning the Truth. You know the bible specifically tells us that if we learn the truth that we shall be free. Free of what? First free of that ignorance of common facts which will bear us down unless we learn. Here is a little comparative philosophy that the Negro uses to describe merit on the part of another Colored brother: "Oh boy! that Nebra hos got 'em, he can do that thing like a WHITE man." This observation is said as a matter of finality. Nothing more can be said by way of adding merit to the case. If he reaches the white man's standard—that settles it! On the other hand the white man pays this tribute to himself by patting the Negro on the back: "Though John is black, he has got a white heart," typical of him, he now claims the greatest—Purity. But surely there is some consolation for the Negro, surely he may come in somewhere for honorable mention. AMERICAN WOODMEN'S ATTEN- TION Esteemed Neighbor: To Member whom it may concern: The Order requests of you to make yourself financial before the close of the year. If you owe three or four months assessments please be at meeting Friday night December 10 at 18th and Grove, Odd Fellows Hall, or call at office, 1612 East 12th, if it is impossible for you to call in person please telephone me, Clifton 4648; if you are over four months in arrear you may reinstate for $3.00 plus the medical examination. We are urging as never before, upon each and every member to not let the year close without being financial with the American Woodman, which is now decidedly one of the greatest Fraternal societies in all of the world, doing business in the same old way and serving people in the same capacity, paying claims, sick, accident and death the very moment the proof is established. The first meeting night in December has been designated as the Woodman Annual Feast night, at which time each and every Neighbor is requested to be present and bring with him or her a basket of lunch which we will eat and give thanks to God for having spared us individually and collectively as an Order, to flourish and prosper for twelve months more. Every member is asked to be present promptly at 8:30. Fraternally yours. N. S. ADKINS, Supervisor, Clerk THURSDAY, DECEMBER 16 LILLIAN LORAINE In the Sensational Dramatic Play, "Should A Wife Forgive" He does. He comes in the legitimate door. His color is legal and right. Hence if we want to know that a thing is O. K., that there is nothing artificial, then we want to see, yea, we demand that it be in BLACK and white; It would never sound right to say white and BLACK, this would create the suspicion that the described white hypnotism was about, and this would be contrary to a natural law. So you see now just why we feel so safe on color preference. BEING RESPONSIBLE. Some people think that the world is coming to an end if they happened to be mentioned in an adverse light in the newspapers. They also carry this extreme idea to its reactionary bounds by imagining that cheap newspaper motorlery can make them great or even respectable. The fact is that only real merit can win out in the long run. If the stuff is not in you no newspaper in the world can put it there. Likewise if it is there no newspaper can take it away from you. Truth will stand regardless of all. So the best thing for us is to be careful what we say or do, because we are responsible. We should be careful to the extent of saying what is right and doing what is sensible, for what ever we say or do the public will hold us to it. Now where the newspaper serves a grand purpose is in its reports to the people. "So the people may know" is a good slogan and should be followed by all newspapers. We have not made as much progress as we should along this line. But we should let the people know. In this way the newspaper has a tendency to make everybody realize the responsibility saying or doing this or that, good or bad. Publish it and public sentiment will do the rest. Now Mr. So and So, if you do not wish to be mentioned in an adverse light publicly then stop talking so much from the wrong side of the mouth. And above all cut out your crooked work. Many so called "Leaders" try hard to dodge the responsibility of what they say or do. You will find this especially true in organizations. Have you noticed the plots and counter plots? They are great on knitting the other fellow in the back. Then there is another thing, though not so sinister, which we should hold these leaders responsible for and that is bad advice they give the public. When one essays to lead or instruct the public that public assumes that the essayist has manhood, brains and a message. What ever it is the public reserves the right to receive or reject. And upon accepting any resolution proposed and said resolution proves a detriment, then the proposer is held responsible. So it behoves every one to be careful what they say or do. ALPHA PHI ALPHA TO MEET. The Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, the oldest and largest college fraternity of Negroes, will hold its thirteenth annual session in Kansas City during Christmas week, December 27 to 31. At this time Beta Lambda, the local chapter, will be host to about 200 men, representing practically all the large universities and colleges from Harvard in the East and Atlanta University in the South to Kansas University in the Middle West. Kansas City, true to her reputation as a convention city, will most heartily welcome these men, representative of the best manhood of the race, who through fraternal organization are seeking to aspire the youth of the race to fit themselves for the best things of life. On Monday, December 27th, a public session will be held at Allen Chapel at 8 p. m. when Dr. Geo. R. Hall, of Chicago, will be the principal speaker. There will be other speakers and music by some of the best'talent of the two Kansas Cities. The housing committee is anxious to secure more desirable homes. Any person who can room any of the visitors will kindly call J. O. Morrison, Bell phone, Maple 16183. WEATHER FORECAST For Kansas City and Vicinity From December 8 to December 15.
