McKinley Reed, J. W., Golden Gate Lodge No. 43, 3217 So, Wabash Avenue. The second award of the American Stimulators on the subject "WHAT HAS MASONRY MEANT TO ME" goes to Brother Wm. McKinley, Reed, member of Golden Gate Lodge number No. 43 F. & A. M. and active in building up the fraternity in all departments. His letter follows:— Socially, intellectually and fraternally, Masonry has meant to me. When I was initiated in 1920, I was hardly able to utter the obligation I was never a speaker and was extremely embarrassed to talk before even a small group of people. When I was called before my Master to show myself sufficiently proficient to receive the Fellow craft's degree, the stage fright left me. When I was employed for a short time by the Chicago Milwaukee and St. Paul Railway Co., at Ute Iowa, my foreman, white, introduced me to a number of his friends who were Masons. They took me to their white Masonic lodges, where I was complimented upon my proficiency and ability to speak and prove myself as a man and Mason. They said "many colored masons are unable to speak intelligently and defend themselves." I never dreamed that I would be able to hold an intellectual position anywhere; and owe my present social, intellectual and fraternal stand to Freemasonry. The memory of Prince Hall our first Grand Master who died December 7th 1807 shall ever be sweet to me. ORDER OF BEES FOR BOYS AND GIRLS ADOPTED BY MISSOUR The Order of Bees for boys and girls, the Junior Department of of the Masonic Fraternity, and copy righted by the Grand Master and Supreme King Bee, Brother Thos. H. Samuel is rapidly growing in popularity in all jurisdictions of Freemasonry, including our own. In a recent communication Brother Eugene G. Lacey, Most Worshipful United Grand Lodge F. & A, M. of the State and jurisdiction of Missouri said, "I would like to see your Order of Bees established in all our Jurisdictions, that our children in traveling from one to another will also find friends. I hope your aim is to make it universal. I will be glad to assist you with it in Missouri. I will also thank you for a copy of your Fraternal Traveling Certificate". King David Lodge will soon petition for authority to start a Hive and it is understood that Golden Gate Lodge No. 45. will do likewise. Both these lodges will work in co-operation with the respective Eastern Star Chapters which they have adopted. JUST A CARD PLEASE. ORIENTAL LODGE WRITES INMATES AT THE HOME If you were shut in from the outside world, a card at Christmas time would be the same as an oasis in a desert. It would let you know that the bounds of true love is undying, and cause you to believe that "out of sight, does not always mean out of mind." Oriental Lodge number 68 F. & A. M. has again taken the lead and will write the inmates of the Home. They are Brothers Beck, McClaim, Lewis, Rivers, Louis and Sister McClaim. The matron is Sister Hicks and the superintendent is Brother Charles Golden. Won you JOIN THE FRATERNAL GOOD FELLOWS and send a card as a greeting from your Chapter, Lodge, Commandery, Consistory, Shrine, Palace, Court, Circle, etc? Of course candy and other things are always accepted but just a card means so much. MOTTO: "HEW TO THE LINE, LET THE CHIPS FALL WHERE THEY MAY." M. M. R. W. G.

Thousands Look On With Fiendish Glee As Flames Cousume Human Body. USUAL MANUFACTURED "CONFESSION" GIVEN TO PRESS BY MOB MEMBERS Arkansas and Texas Join in Celebrating Death of Dyer Anti-Lyching Bill By Associated Negro Hress. Perry, Fla., Dec. 14. About a week ago a young white school teachers was brutally murdered near this city and at first it was presumed that crime was committed by white persons. A pretended investigation was made and the first idea abandoned and the crime was fixed on Negroes and attention given to tracing down the "black brute" or "brutes." Having learned that two or three Negroes had left the vicinity some days ago, and went to points in Georgia, the the authorities turned their attention in that direction and soon located the paries suspicioned and placed or had them placed under arrest. One, Charlie Wright, was arrested in Madison County, Florida, and Albert Young, colored, was arrested in Kindlalou, Georgia. Both denied that they had committed the crime While the sheriff of Taylor County was conveying the two prisoners to another county for safekeeping, a mob said to be of about a thousand men intercepted him and took the two men and after a "mob trial" convicted Wright of the crime tied him to a stake and built a fire about his feet and body and burned him alive. The mob made Wright confess the crime. According to the statement of mob Wright exonerated Young, but placed the robbery of the victim on another Negro. The real presumption is, that some white person or persons committed the crimes and that the mob, knowing these facts, placed the blame upon Wright to quiet the public mind. In this, "human burning" Florida has been the first state to celebrate the "death of the Dyer Bill." Texas Lynching. Streetman, Tezas, Dec. 14. After having been accused of an attempted assault upon a white school teacher' near here, a days ago, George Gay, Neg and years, was hanged to aits his body riddled with bents. Gay paid the exe circumstantial of death only up to the mobs' evidence according to the young own statement, in that the young woman the case refused to identify the victim. This seemed to irritate the already impatient mob, and upon demand, the sheriff turned his prisoner over to the leader, who was unmasked. well known in the community. Ropes and guns of many descriptions were gathered as the victim was tied to an automobile dragged down the road to a tree, where the lifeless body was strung up to a limb and was made the target of two hundred shots. Following the lynching, many Negroes were driven out of town. Many homes were burned, including a Negro hotel. No arrests have been made and the authorities are making no efforts to apprehend those guilty of murder. Arkansas Lynching Morrillon, Ark., Dec. 24. Following the shooting of Deputy Sheriff Grant Farris, Leslie Smith a Negro, was taken by a mob and lynched. According to reports, the deputy went to the Negro's home to arrest him for peace disturbance and during a controversy, in which heated words were exchanged, it is charged that Smith shot the deputy, inflicting a slight wound from which he will recover. The deputy succeeded, however, in lodging his prisoner in the county jail. As soon as the news spread of the wounding of Deputy Farris by a Negro, a mob of nearly a thousand formed and gathered at the county jail, clamoring for blood. On the pretext of an attempt Rev. J. B.

Not merely to sell seals, but to sell health. When people learn to think, then will they begin to serve. Every seal we buy to to stick on letters, snd packages, is a help toward the cure and prevention of Tuberculosis. When we teach children to keep their bodies clean, to keep in the fresh air and sunshine as much as possible; eat clean and nourishing food and to learn health habits, we are helping to stamp Tuberculosis. The greatest infant mortality is among the colored people. The majority of active Tuberculosis cases are found among young adults between the ages of 15 and 35 years. Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by germs without the germ there never can be infection or Tuberculosis. The germ is given by particles trown off when coughing, or sneezing, or from dust. The National Tuberculosis Association, of which we are a part, has asked Massac County for $1500.00 this year, as our share towards this Soal Sale. The association glues us 70 per cent of the money for use in controlling the spread of this disease in our county. The balance of the money is to go to the Association towards research work and preparing and sending all the posters, stamps, or seals and bonds--also adver tising matter, all of which costs money and without which we cannot work in intelligently. With the money we get, we hope to hire a nurse to took after our School children, send all who have tubercular symptoms to a physician--have clinics and dispensaries. Wont you buy seals? Sell seals. Keep up the fight. DR. G. W. PARKS DROPS DEAD AT PHILADELPHIA Noted Minister Bad Just Returned Home From Baptist Convention at St. Louis, Where He Was Strong Contender For Presider cy. Convention Gloses Important Session. Dr. L-K. Williams Elected President. Next Session To Be Held At Los Angeles, Calif. Following close afar adjournment of the Forty-second Annual session of the National Baptist Convention which closed here last Monday night, word was received in St. Louis, Thursday of the death of Dr. W G Parks, who it is said dropped dead at his home Wednesday shortly after his return from St. Louis where he attended the Baptist Convention The news of the death of Dr. Parks comes as a great surprise to the Baptists throughout this country, as he was nationally known because of his official connection with the church. He was Vice Pres., of the National Baptist Convention for 12 years and was President since September 5th following the death of Dr E. C. Morris. Many regarded him as being the logical successor of Dr. Morris. He was a strong contender for the Presidency during the recent Convention and was defeated by Dr. L. K. Williams of Chicago by only 30 votes. It was generally believed that the strain caused by the disappointment together with the long trip affected him greatly. Convention Closes. Nothing occurred during the Foty-second's sSION of the National Baptist Convent on which was held at the Kings Theater last week to mar the business or pleasure of the many delegates and visitors. Dr. L. K. Williams of Chicago was chosen President to succeed the late Dr. E. C. Morris who died last September. Dr. W. G. Parks of Philadelphia was a strong contender for the honor having received 760 votes while Dr. Williams the successful candidate received 790 votes. Dr. G. Taylor of Louisiana was elected Vice Think-- how nice it Everyone in to have mo Chris Pres and the nicest par thus received will so Santa Claus himself member of our Christm You will hardly rea that it is your ow pou have saved.

Continued from First Page Arkansas Lynching. to spirit away, Smith was taken from the jail and turned over to the mob who jeered, screamed and yell'd and threw their hats in the air like wild men. They seized their victim and after toruring nearly an hour, hung him to a telegraph post and returned to their homes. No arrests have been made in an effort to punish the guilty persons who took part in the lynching. Comment has it that the failure of the anti-lynching bill in the Senate a few days ago has encouraged the white people of the South to start anew with the program of lynching, burning and mobbing. The musical given by the Jubilee choir of the First Baptist church, under the direction of Mrs. G W. Prince, at the above named church Sunday afternoon was a "dream." There has never been anything like it before, composed only of hometalent. Prof Walsh (white) one of the leading pianist of Southern Ill., also of Metropolis, was present and added much to the entertainment of the large audience by his demonstrations on the instrument, also the paper he read on the subject of "Music and the benefits derived," was interesting and instructive The entire church with the choir extend thanks to Mr Walsh, for his presence and a cordial invitation to return again, Collection $11.05. Cotton King Answered the Last Roll Call. Bennettsville, S. C. Citizen Was Worth Over $300,000. Wealthiest Man of the Race in South Carolina. Bennettsville, S. C. The "Colored Cotton King" of South Carolina, Jones W. Thomas, wealthiest and most prominent member of the race in Marlboro county died Friday night, at the age of 57 years. His death came unexpectedly as he was seen on the ```markdown ``` streets of Bennettsville, on Thursday. But he had been sick for some time, suffering from Brights disease and diabetis and had recently undergone treatment at John Hophins Hospital, Baltimore and Battle Creek Sanitarium, Michigan Mr. Thomas, was a conspicuous figure. It is claimed he owned one of the largest farms in South Carolina, and cultivated it with rare success that he was crowned with the title 'Cotton King' by all of his fellow countrymen. He had a white partner; after putting his own land in cultivation, he managed the cultivation of his partner's farm. In one year the profits realized over one hundred thousand dollars which he divided equally. The First St. John Baptist church is greatly improved, under the leadership of Rev John H. Stamps, our worthy pastor. The 17, was a high day at 11 o'clock. He preached a strong sermon from Luke 9:8. His wife, sister Stamps made us a visit and attended the draw supper which was a success, everybody enjoyed the meeting of the sisters. Mrs. Stamps, made a nice address to the women and it was enjoyed by all. She said she was pleased to see peace and love for the pastor and that made her love the church. The Missionary Sisters will have their sermon delivered Jan. 7th by the pastor and installation of officers. Thursday night was our regular prayer service. Rev. J. H Stamps Pastor.

Our more than 23 years of experience in the newspaper world has taught us that we have been giving away hundaeds 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 going 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. The Manager. Salt Makes Sea Blue. Though generally appearing blue in clear weather, the ocean varies greatly in color. In stormy weather it looks green or even black. The blue of the sea is not, as generally supposed, due to reflection from the sky, but to salt in the water. That is why the Mediterranean, which is very salty, appears exceedingly blue. Love and Duty in Actual Life.
