Dreestings:— It is indeed a pleasure to greet you through the columns of our official organ, the It is indeed a pleasure to greet you through the columns of our official organ, the Metropolis Gazette. During my entire administration I have been favorably impressed with the fact that we are greatly in need of some inspirational medium whereby we can meet and discuss things of general interest and at the same time let each other know it is well with us. I realize all of the ancient forms and customs of the Order; but also appreciate the fact that in these progressive times we must take advantage of modern methods, to prove ourselves worthy of the honor that is accorded us, when all people conceive that Masonry is the leading organization in the world. If that be true, we must be progressive in all our ideas, and methods; never theses keeping with in the bounds of our ancient landmarks. I am hoping every Lodge, Royal Arch Chapter, Commandery, Consistory, Temple of the Fraternity, and Chapter, Court, Guild, Assembly and departments of the Adoptive Rites will take advantage of the Gassette and assist in making it what you would like to have it. Send in your news items regularly each day. Appoint or select your correspondents and subscribe for it by the year.

With best wishes for your continued success I am fraternally yours for greater service. T. H. SAMUELS, M. W. G. M. ROYAL EAGLE CHAPTER 88 O. E. S. HOLDS CHAPTER OF SOR-ROWS. Royal Eagle Chapter No. 88, O. E. S., Chicago, Illinois held its Chap- ```markdown ``` Where Mole Shows Superiority. A man wishing to dig a well usually chances his luck in doing so, and may-waste a lot of labor and money in vain digging. The mole, which must have water, also digs wells, but seems to know exactly where to start operations in order to reach water within a reasonable distance.

The work of the Chapter of Sorrows as exemplified by Royal Eagle Chapter in memory of their two deceased sisters, Anna Nelson and Tommy Hibbet were doubly impressive, first because under the efficient tutorship of Sister Daisy Cartell acting Matron, the officers had memorized their parts and second because each person present seemed to realize the solemnity of the occasion. Sister Anna May Vincent, member of Garden City Chapter sang a solo, "Flee As a Bird to Your Mountain". Sister Laura Dillard eulogized sister Tommy Hibbet and Sister Anna M. Brinkley eulogized Sister Anna Nelson. The Chapter joined in singing "Shall We Meet Beyond the River?" These special ceremonies were indispersed by Sister Cartell quoting stanzas from the most befitting poem "By What I Have Done", which seemed to give that bit of inspirational sincerity to the program that made it impressive.

Catarrhaj Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tubes When this tube inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result. Unless the inflammation can be reduced and this tube to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever.

Notice is hereby given by the manager of this paper, that beginning with August 1st there will be a charge on all matter sent here for publication except purely news. All papers, Obituaries, Programs Resolutions Essays, Sermons, Personal Write ups, etc. Mistreatment Solic Sending of Nigeria is Regardable Between Tion to Fame A Cougression Asked by Navi Avancement New York Inquiring in There will be a charge of $1 00 for the above named for 15 lines and all articles containing more than 15 type lines 100 will be charged for every additional line. This does not apply to news of the churches. We are compelled to do this for financial protection. Our more than 23 years of experience in the newspaper world has taught us that we have been giving away hundreds of dollars annually paying for setting type for such things in which the general public is not interested in, and most of the time the persons writing are not subscribers and not interested in and have no Race pride or Race Loyalty, they make long and loud speeches to the galleries, preach great sermons and write fine papers on patronizing Race enterprises and that is as far as it goes with them, as nine times out ten they give their job work what little they have, to other persons other than race papers and are withholding the support from the men who are fighting mob and lynch law and the many other inequalities and evils which contaminate the race fifty two weeks in the year, while these would be race lovers find excuses in giving their work to others claiming they are too high priced or the work is inferior to others, when at the same time these same papers that they refuse to let do theirs are doing work for Negroes who do not pose as Race leaders, and too, these same race papers are doing job work for some of best business firms and individuals of the white race. The papers are great so long as they boost this class of individuals for naught and let him help the fellow who does not need his financial assistance. There seems too much racial jealousy and envy among the majority of our great leaders and that accounts for slow progress along race enterprises. Therefore we have taken the matter under careful advisement and have concluded to place a small charge on all matter except purely news. All Associational, Conventional matter we expect the officers of the Bodies to take care of in a more systematic way hereafter at quarterly and annual meeting. Our experience at the meetings in the past forces us to make this request. No one who believes in a just compensation for honest work will object to this requirement. Johnsonville. Tenn. Mrs. M. J.

Notice Notice To the officers of the Executive Board of the Mt. Olive Baptist Association, you are notified Mistreatment of Negro Soldiers is Charged Sending of Negro Troops to Georgia is Regarded as Inviting Trouble Between Races and Humiliation to Famed Colored Regiment A Congressional Investigation is Asked by National Asso. For the Avancement of Colored People. New York, Nov 7.—Special Inquiring into 'frequent charges' of mistreatment of colored members of the 24th United States Infantry, stationed at Camp Benning Georgia, and asserting that the charges are such as to warrant Congressional investigation The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, today made public a letter to the Secretary of War asking for a statement from the War Department about the matter. The letter asks that the War Department state, whether it is true that the Colored regiment has been deprived of its arms in a community that resents the presence of colored men in United States uniform: whether the regiment has been deprived of its own colonel and placed in command of one with a bad record for brutality to colored soldiers; whether the War Department countenaces advice from commanding officers to colored soldiers that they permit themselves to be called "Damn Niggers" and remember first that they are colored. "November 2, 1922. The Secretary of War, War Department Washington, D. C. Sir: Frequent reports have come to this office that the 24th Infantry, U. S. A. consisting of colored troops, some of them veterans of the Spanish American and the World Wars, have been disarmed deprived of their commanding officer, Colonel Scofield, and stationed at Fort Benning, Georgia, where they are, at the mercy of every brutal Negro-hating white man. The reports to this office of the treatment accorded these colored soldiers are such as to justify Congressional investigation into the conduct of Camp Benning, Georgia, by its present commanding office. Before placing the matter before Congress, may we have from the War Department a reply stating whether: 1. The 24th Infantry, U. S. A., has been stationed at Camp Benning, Georgia, and disarmed. 2. The 24th Infantry has been deprived of its commanding officer Colonel Schofeld. 3. "It is the policy of the War Department to countenance advice from commanding officers to soldiers that they permit white soldiers to call them "Damn Nigers" 4. "It is the policy of the War Department to countenance advice from commanding officers to United States soldiers that are to remember first of all that they are colored 5. Mail from the 24th Infantry at Camp Benning is censored in order to prevent knowledge of the facts reaching the public "It is respectfully suggested that investigation of these charges be made by the War Department directly." to meet in the 1st quarterly meeting to be held with Central Baptist church, Cuiro, Ill., Thursday and Friday before the 3rd Sunday in December 1922, on invitation of Rev. S. H. Pruitt, pastor and members of the church.

Phone 364 Anti-Lyaching Cruaders A branch of the Anti-Lynching Crusaders was formed by philanthropic Race Women of Metropolis, at Dundar High School a few evening ago with Miss Bliscene Hayes, Pres.; Mrs. Izora Rodgers, vice president; Mrs. Ruby Orington, Sec. Chairmen of the various committees were appointed. Sunday p. m. was the occasion of a second meeting The president, distributed some interesting literature, and explained some important facts concerning the crusade. It has been said no cause wins because it is righteous; no cause wins unless you put faith and work behind it. "With all reverence, I say that God is not omnipotent. He is not all powerful. God cannot work out plans unless we make ourselves his instruments." Let every woman, man and child fall in line and be useful in this one great drive that will never be forgotten. From 1889 to 1921 according to statistics there were 3,436 white and colored persons lynched in the United States. 702 white and 2,718 colored. This taking of human life and often of innocent persons without judge or jury in civilized and christianized America is almost beyond belief and yet we find men and women that are concerned enough about it to lift up their voice against this great blot upon the American Flag. This nation is approaching her undoing at a rapid gate. The blood of these victims is crying from the earth for vengeance. The names of One million women are asked to sign their protest against this great curse. Can you stand idly by while men, women, and children, are being roasted alive? If so, then God deal with you after the manner of your sin.
