VOLUME XVII. NO.32
REV. RUSSELL ELECTED BISHOP
SIGNAL HONOR CONFERRED UPON DISTINGUISHED VIRGINIA CHURCHMAN.
Becomes Suffragan Bishop of Diocee of Arkansas. Founder and Builder of St. Paul's School and Constructive Leader.
Hope, Ark. At the session of the diocee convention of the state of Arkansas, held here last Thursday, the Venerable James S. Russell, Archdeacon of Southern Virginia, was elected Bishop-Suffragan of the diocese. In the interment of the colored people of the provinces of the Southwest, embracing the states of Missouri, Kansas, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Texas and New Mexico. Two other colored priests were placed in connection and epigraphic leader of Baltimore, and the Venerable E. Thomas Denby, Archdeacon of Tennessee. Archdeacon Russell was the successful one. The strangeness of the election lies in the fact that Archdeacon Russell has been the most active and prominent leader of the opposition, among colored church men, to the election of any kind of a Negro bishop. However, his election was entirely by members of the white race who know of the Archdeacon's great work. He is respected as one of the oldest and most highly respected of the colored clergy.
Besides establishing quite a number of Episcopal churches in the "black belt" of Virginia, where he was born he is the founder, and principal of St. Thomas Episcopal Church, the largest educational institution, for colored pupils, under the Episcopal Church.
Rev. George F. Bragg, Jr., D. D., writing in the Baltimore American, pays a high tribute to the character of Dr. Russell, who restores that the contention for a colored Bishop for colored Episcopal Churches had its origin in Maryland soon after the Civil War and has been agitated with varying phases ever since. Dr. Russell being one of those who one person has been a part of, Dr. Bragg favored it. Dr. Russell is a graduate of the Hampton Institute, and was influenced in his great work in the Episcopal Church by Mrs. Pattie E. Buford, a white woman, greatly interested in work among colored people, and in the civil rights movement. The character of Dr. Russell's work in Brunswick county, and as principal of St. Paul's Industrial School, at Lawrenceville, is well known to the readers of the Journal and Guide. In concluding his article in the American Dr. Bragg says:
When it is recalled that during all these years he has been among his colored brother the leader of the "opposition" to a negro bishop of any description, it would seem as if his choice of bishop was to be his brother who have been most persistent and insistent in demanding Negro bishops. But, as one who must plead guilty as being a "ringleader" in stiffly putting it up to the church, I refuse to believe that any such motive governed in the election of Archbishop Thomas as bishop's sherifgan of Arkansas.
"When viewed from the magnitude of work accomplished and due consideration given to all of his environments in the accomplishment of his duties, will not be difficult to discern why he was selected. The writer of these notes and the Bishop-elect was born in adjoining states and adjoining counties, and we were housed together in school other ever since we have been in the ministry; he against the idea of Negro bishops, we in favor of the same. At last, victory is offers; but he has the "fruit" and we the "experience and fortitude" that he fented, but victorious, his consolation will be the monument of the victory won. There will be other colored bishops."
CELEBRATE QUARTO-CEN TENNIAL OF S. S. LEADER
rupt. of St. John's A. M. E. Sunday School, Whose Quarter-Centennial As Superintendent will be Celebrated Sunday.
The quarto-centennial anniversary of Llent. Jas. M. Collins, superintendent of St. John's A. M. E. Sunday School, will be observed Sunday by the members and friends of the church and school.
An interesting program has been arranged which begins with the Sunday School hour and provides special services for 8 and 8 p.m. A representation will be a feature of the evening service.
At the morning hour Sunday the pastor will preach from the theme, "The Gift of the Paraclete."
The month of June will be known as "Go-to-Class-Month." Every member of St. John's will be urged to meet his and her leader during the month. A donation for $2,000 is being launched by the trustees for the purpose of installing a modern heating plant and making other needed repairs.

ELEVATED TO BISHOPRIC
REV. JAS. S. RUSSELL
LAYMEN'S MOVEMENT NOW ON IN ROANOKE
Outlook Good For Splendid Meeting
Large Registration Expected
(By W. A. Beld.)
Roanoke, Va.—The campaign of preparations for the Roanoke Condition of the Layman's Missionary Movement of the Layman's Missionary Canada, under the direction of Executive Secretary Adolphus Lewis of Philadelphia, is in full swing, and the outlook is for a great meeting, which will take June 3rd, and continues three days.
Some of the greatest speakers in the world will make the address; among whom will be one of the races' greatest women, Mrs. Helen Adams Moore, formerly of Washington, D. C., but now of Columbus, Ohio. Mrs. Moore will be a Special and Mission Workers in America, regardless of race. For fifteen years she worked abroad in Scotland and England, having extensive and varied experiences among the prisons and slums of London and Edinburgh. Coming back to America about four years ago, she will be for three years the head of the "In the House in Washington City," under the direction of Miss Nannie H. Burroughs. Aside from these, Mrs. Moore is a sweet gospel singer. The men and women of Roanoke will have a rare treat in the services of Mrs. Moore.
Next Sunday, May 27th, is General Registration Day for the Movement, when it is expected that from three to four hundred men will enroll as delegates for this convention.
Sunday, May 20th, at 11 a.m., the congregation and Friends of the Hill St. Baptist Church were highly encouraged by a splendid lecture by Mr. Dolphin of the Layman's Missionary Movement Convention. He explained to those present the difference in worship, praising and serving God. Those who heard Mr. Lewis were delighted with his remarks.
At 8 p. m., the pastor, Rev. D. D. Johnson, gave us a special message which delighted him about offering for the day $33.51
Monday night Hill St. Church was filled with eager listeners. All who were present can never forget the many good things told them by our honored Prof. R. C. Woods, president Virginia Thomas, Seminary and College of Law, and vice president of the Baptist State Convention. They addressed us concerning the great jubilee to be held in Lynnburg July 10-15 and about our educational work in general.
Mr. Laura L. Betts, left the city for Hallifax County, where she will spend the summer.
The president of Mr. Moses H. Gillham, are glad to see him out again after being confined to his bed for several weeks suffering with rheumatism.
Henry Street can boost of having an up-to-date fish market where fresh fish can be bought at reasonable prices and where you will get first service. Mr. D. W. Harth, manager.
Mr. and Mrs. G. H. Robinson gave a surprise party in honor of his sister, Mrs. N. H. Lawson, of Homestead, Pa. Among those present were: Rev. and Mrs. Price, Mr. and Mrs. Brown, Mr. F. W. Robinson, Miss Trent, Mr. F. W. Bishop, Mr. H. Hunt, Mr. and Mrs. P. L. Breck, Miss Hackley, Miss Brittie Lawson, Mrs Mary Jones, Mr. G. D. Robinson
The services at the First Baptist Church Sunday last were the most interesting and inspiring services that the writer has witnessed for a long time, especially the morning service. Adams Moore of Columbus, Ohio, Mrs. Moore is one of the best Social Service workers in America, having spent several years in uplift work in Scotland. After delivering a brief, but most interesting and instructive service, Mrs. Moore organized the congregation with her Soler, Hellow, and sweet voice, has in it a pathos seldom equalled.
Rev. Dr. L. L. Downing preached at three o'clock and the minister of the church. Rev. Ricks, preached at the evening service. A little less than the evening service, a collection of the Rally money, which will be supplemented next Sunday.
Rev. E. E. Ricks attended the Convention of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, held at Washington, D.C., last week, and the addresses, delivered by men and women of both races, all realize that the race, as well as the Nation, are both face to face with an unprecedented crisis the outcome of which the most suspicious statesman cannot forecast, will be the God's unchangeable word, which gives us the RIGHTEOUSNESS EXALTETH A NATION, BUT SIN IS A REPROACH TO ANY PEOPLE."

When demand was made for higher wages with a refusal on the part of the company every man quit work, left the premises and sought work elsewhere which was easily found.

Had he lived he would have been elected elder.
He stood as one of Norfolk's best evangelists, highly respected by both white and black congregations, as one thoroughly understanding biblical theology.
The church was thronged with friends who came to pay their last respects to their beloved friend and brother.
The choir jointly with the choir of Rophin church, rendered beautiful anthems.
Rev. D. F. White, the pastor, officiated, and reached a deep sermon from Psalm 55:22: "Cast thy burden upon the Lord and he shall sustain thee, he shall not suffer the righteous to be moved.
The ministering ministers to pay their last respects were Rev. G. Newport News, and Rev. Jeffries of this city, a personal friend of the deceased, who outlined the life work and splendid character of Mr. Harris.
The many and beautiful designs shown that he was loved and appreciated by his congregation.
He leaves to mourn their loss a wife, daughters, brothers and a host of other relatives and friends.
Mrs. Ellen Hicks and Miss Bertha Diggs were the very pleasing hostesses, the members of the St. Clair Embroidery Circle Thursday evening, May 17th, at their home, 631 Relly Street.

Twenty Years From Today a Bald-headed Man Will Be An Unusual Sight.
One of the most prominent druggists of America made a statement a few weeks ago which has caused a great deal of discussion among scientists in the medical press.
He said: "If the new hair grower, Mildredina Hair Remedy, increases its sales as it has during the past year, it will be used by nearly every man, woman and child in America within eight years.
"When Mildredina Hair Remedy is used almost universally, dandruff will disappear and with its departure baldness, itching scalp, splitting hair and all such scalp diseases will follow and twenty years from new a bald head will be a rarity." Sample sent for 10e to pay postage. Mail orders filled by Mildred Louise Co., Boston, Mass.

Mr. Garnoy Davis of Glasgow street, whose sad death occurred in Petersburg Friday of last week, was buried from Emanuel A. M. E. Church, of which he was a member, Monday of this week. The pastor, Dr. E. H. Hunter, paid a lovely tribute of respect to the exemplary Christian life, though short, he lived. For the second time in six weeks death has entered the home of Mr. and Mrs. Nelson Murphy, and claiming as its own, the youngest, Frances Scott, Sunday, May 20th. Funeral service was conducted Monday, Dr. E. H. Hunter officiating. Mrs. Victor Small received as a birthday present by her husband a handsome Ford machine.
On Thursday, May 10th, 1917, Mr. George Williams, District Deputy Grand Master of the Second district of Masons, was made the recipient of a handsome diamond signed ring, in recognition of his services to the order. The ring was given by the last class of Master Masons that was initiated on February 28th, 1917. The presentation speech was made by Mr. Robert Gretta.
Mrs. Jno. R. Tinker, of S. W. Harbor, Malne, after a very pleasant visit to her sister, Mrs. Mary E. Gary, of Clifford street, left last Saturday for her home. While in the city Mrs. Tinker was the recipient of much social courtesy.
Little Master James Elliott, nephew of Mrs. Gary, in company with his mother, Mrs. Tinker, left last Saturday for a brief visit to Boston, after which he will go to Maine, where he will make his future home. Master Elliott will be greatly missed by his little friends, whose best wishes he carries with him.
Field day exercises of the public schools were a great success. Hundreds of persons were in attendance and did not fail to show their appreciation of the work of all the children. While all of the numbers were good, the "dance of the flowers" by Miss Ova Churchill's pupils, "The American Flag" by Mrs. Felton's pupils and the dance from "Feast of the Little Lanterns," by the young ladies of the high school deserve special mention.
The Daughters of the G. A. J. are urgently requested to meet at the residence of the president, Mrs. Ahrens, on next Thursday evening, at 7:30 o'clock.
Miss M. Estelle Thompson wishes to ask all the members of the Art Class of Z. 13. C. to meet in the ladies' parlor on Monday, May 28, at 7 o'clock. Business of importance is to be transacced.
CHURCH NOTES.
Emmanuel A. M. E. Church Sunday.
At the morning service Dr. E. H. Hunter delivered a most forceful sermon on "The Duty Of The Hour." In beautiful but strong language he clearly defined true patriotism, definitely eiting the responsible duty of every man, woman and child, during this world wide crisis, and earnestly begged them to have only one object in view, namely to promptly answer the country's call. In whatever way needed.
Next Sunday at 11 a. m., the pastor, Dr. E. H. Hunter, will preach the baccalaureate sermon to the graduating class of Corey Memorial Institute.

SPECULATION IN FOODSTUFFS.
Tate in the wants and woes of his fel-
low-men; to take advantage of their
weakness to rob them of their money,
of their "blood, for money is blood
coined into money; to force them to
pay more than they should for the
things they must have in order to
keep life and body together; it takes
a very mean man to do this. In an off-
hand way of looking at it, we might
be disposed to say that there is not
many such men in our neighborhood.
That is the charitable view of the
matter, and it is said by the Word
that Charity covereth a multitude of
sins, but it does not say that it con-
doncth the sins. There is a distinction
with a difference, and most words are
construable in like manner. 7
Far from being a rare thing under
the sun and among us, the men who
make haste to trade on the wants,
the craving wants, of their neighbors,
arg very common and ordinary
ereatures, and are to be found among
us wherever we turn in these piping
times of war and rumors of war,
charging all the traffic will stand for
the things they have to sell and others
have to buy, and being very impudent
about it when complaint is made that
they are “piling it on.” “You don’t
need to buy it if you think the price
too high; that’s your business,” one
such sneered recently when protest
was made against paying a brave
nickel for an onion—a lone onion!
But the people who reap the great
harvest in such times ns these are the
speculators in foodstuffs, the men and
the organizations that buy up all the
"foodstuffs in sight they can and dole
them out as a miser spends his pen-
nies, so that artificial scarcity may be
made and “any old price” demanded
of consumers: the speculators are
minded to ask. This business pros-
pers even in times of peace, but there
is always a way found to “break the
corner” in times of peace. In war
times it is not so casy to find such a
way. If left to themselves the specu:
lators usually do as they please.
Because of the harm done by the
speculators in foodstuifs, in cornering
the supply and holding it at prices
they see fit to fix, it has been per-
sistently urged upon Congress that
such speculation be prohibited during
the life of the war, and that the Gov-
ernment take in hand the rextiblation
and control of the foodstutfs produc.
tion and fixing of prices to consumers
This will be done, and should be, and
that speedily. It is also proposcd.te
limit the export, the shipping to for-
eign countries, of foodstuffs so that
consumers at home may not be unduly
charged for them. The high prices
of wheat and all sorts of meats have
become the despair of consumers, wha
find it difficult to measure the money
they have to spend for foodstuffs by
what they need and the vendors de.
“mand for them. Of course the retai
dealers regulate their prices by what
the wholesale dealers charge them
but they also add something above 3
reasonable return for their proper
share of profit in the dealings. Fev
of them will admit this, but it is truc
nevertheless,
Let us hope that Government Con:
trol of foodstuffs and fixing of price:
will soon become a fact, and that thi
specylators in such may loose thei
job during the life of the war, and no
find it any more. Speculators, gam
blers, of all sorts, are parasites wh
devour much anWgive little in retun
for what they devour; but the wors
of the speculators, the gamblers, i
times of peace or times of war, ar
those who speculate in foodstuffs
stiffening the prices to suit themselve
as well as adultcrating the foodstuffs
so that the Government of reeen
years has had to institute a syster
of rigid examination of them in orde
to protect consumers.
And let us all keep on praying tha
the war may soon be ended and peac
“‘once more leave us to the ordinar
>, conditions of life, which are hard an
_pexacting enough without the artificis
“hardships of war‘cohditions added.

Smarting. stinging sensations, fre-
quent headaches,’ nervousness, ‘dizzi-
ness and ‘blurred’ vision are a few of
the more common symptoms trace-

wait, the greater the neglect and the
more serious the consequences.

quarter-century’s experience In fitting
glasses. “In this long period he has
fitted glasses to thousinds of men,

This high-class Colored Addition is now on the market and it is to the best interest of all who desire to own homes to write me or call at my main office on the property at the end of Starke Ave., just North of St. Julian Avenue, someone always there, day and night, or call or write 348 Monticello Avenue, get our prices and have us or one of our agents go into the matter thoroughly with you.

NO INTEREST - NO TAXES
EXTRA SPECIAL Payments suspended in case of sickness or being out of employment. All payments returned to your family in case of death during first year of your contract
by the Guarantee Title and Trust Company, Law Building, Norfolk, Va. Capital $150,000.00
This means that the Guarantee Title and Trust Company insures your purchase for full amount in case of loss as life or fire insurance companies insure people or property. Each title to a lot is searched by them in the Recorder's office of Portsmouth and if found sound, clear and free from all claims they then issue you a guarantee insurance policy for amount of your purchase FREE of cost to you. This cost is paid by us, or we will allow the purchaser $5.00 toward paying any lawyer to examine the title to your purchases. Now don't ask your friends or enemies about the title, they don't know any more about titles than the average man and that is nothing. Pay a lawyer and have him search it for you or have it searched by the Guarantee Title and Trust Company and let their capital of $150,000.00 stand behind your purchase. If you or any of your family were sick you would not ask your neighbor or the blacksmith to attend you, but you would send for a doctor because he has studied the profession, has a license and you know he is the man to advise you. Your buying a home is just as important. You work hard. Be sure you get something in the end. Start right, get the right man which is any good lawyer or title company and then pay for your property, don't lapse out and then say, the title was no good. Look around and see the fellows who have homes and you are where you were five, ten or twenty years ago because you heard some fellow say such and such a title was no good.

Why Pay Rent?
There are several reasons why we should try hard to own our homes and therefore stop paying rent.
1. When in our own homes we respect ourselves more, thereby becoming better citizens.
2. When in our own homes our children have greater respect for us as well as themselves, and by the example we teach idleness, vagrancy and crime, ultimately will be unknown.
3. When in our own homes we avoid further annoyances by rent collectors, and when old age has crept on and we can no longer work, an indescribable satisfaction fills our hearts and just here we are forcibly reminded of the truthfulness of the words of the poet when he wrote:
"Mid pleasures and palaces though we may roar,
Be it ever so humble, there is no place like home."
4. The person you are buying from, if you have shown yourself faithful, will always help you in case of trouble, sickness or death.
5. By living in our own home here, we become better fitted for our Heavenly Home.
A HOME AND YOU PAY ABOUT OUR SPECIAL CONTRACT. CALL AT EITA Ave., North of St. Julian Ave.
ATTRACTIONS
Don't be induced to go five or ten miles from Norfolk where you have to depend on street cars, and you have to wait twenty years before an increase in value. Enjoy all the comforts of the country and yet, be in walking distance of any point in the city.
Norfolk is bound to grow. Buy today on our liberal terms, and before you have it paid for it will double in value.
Compare values in Huntersville of today and ten years ago. We join Huntersville on the north and east. Every lot is high and dry and slopes to the river.
We are between Balentine Place, Fairmont Park and Princess Anne Avenue. A most ideal location, on a made boulevard. Think it over and act today.
"They help me so much and I find you so soon as I begin taking your Poley Kidney Pills." Frank P. B. Moore, Merritt, Maine, R. F. D. No. 2. Sometimes it seems as if you can't stand the pain across your back. It is just making your life miserable and robbing you of all energy and strength. When you are constantly tired, head always aching, nerves "edge," kidney action painful and burning, then is the time to start in at once on Poley Kidney Pills. They strengthen the weak, ailing kidneys, improve their action, enable them to throw off the poisons that cause your trouble. Your nerves grow peaceful, sleep becomes sounder, nervous headaches disappear. As Mrs. K. S. Tate told you as soon as I begin to take your Poley Kidney Pills: "Be sure you get the smooth Poley Kidney Pills, for they are purely medicinal and contain no harmful drugs."

This office has received many inquiries asking why our Kindly Mentions did not appear last week. The reporter was busy with concerts and entertaining a few chills at the time that the news was due to be sent in. He therefore, left it to another. He wrote the editor about it, and received this reply: "Your news letter received after we had gone to press." This is our only explanation.
Note the change in the River View Island Park this week. It is always a very safe and pleasant trip on the "Sea-Dog" down the Nansemond to the island. The Park will be run as herefore. This Park will open for your service Memorial Day—May the 30th.
Mrs. Bottle Hunter, who has been ill at her home in St. James Street, is somewhat convalescent.
Another of our pleasure places will open up next week. The East-End Park, owned and managed under the direct superintendency of Mr. J. W. Richardson. Like the River View Island Park, it is known by all of us. Watch this page for its advertisement next week.
Mrs. James M. Smith, of Petersburg, Va., was week-end's guest of Mrs. Lovena Fuller in East Washington Street.
Miss Aquilla Riddick has returned from Rich Square, N. C., where she has been teaching. Miss Irene Logan, who has been teaching in the same school, is spending a week with Miss Riddick. She leaves Monday for her home in Boston, Mass.
And now, our town fathers are considering our segregation interests. At a recent meeting, they very considerably gave audience to many of our representative citizens for and against segregating us in that part of the city formerly known as the "Fair Grounds." The matter will come up again next week for final decision. When our friends (?) get through with us, we are of final mind for consideration. It is the live man that we usually fear, and sometimes dread, but never the nonentity, not dead man.
And now, we all shall be at "Dumville's Pond" this Sunday to witness the baptising of the 250, or more, of the recent converts of the great "Union Revival" conducted by Revs. J. A. Harrel and P. L. Boone. These faithful ministers will put the inciantes under the water, while those of us who have "not religion" long ago, will stand on the banks and praise God. The two converts given by the Suffolk Normal Training School last week were a great success. More than a thousand people attended them. It was a financial success. More than a hundred dollars were netted. Mrs. Joseph Johnson of Richmond, Va., is the guest of her daughter, Mrs.

THE JOURNAL AND GUIDE
C. L. Griffin, Agent for Jericho
J. C. White, in East Washington Street.
Dr. E. L. H. Rance, who has been slick for several days is out again and able to resume his duties.
The agents of the North Carolina Mutual and Provident Association are beginning to hustle. Two of them wrote something like $2000 worth of insurance last week. They also made good collections for The Journal and Guide.
On last Wednesday, May 16th, a large number of Sufolk ladies met at the Pine Street baptist Church. The women were called together by Mr. W. H. Crocker and a Cunning League was organized with Mrs. Ida Eason, chairman; Mrs. Helen Hunter, secretary; with sub-chairman in all parts of the city. The object of this meeting is to have the people can all produce this summer for next winter need. The speech was made: Mr. Arthur Woodford and W. H. Crocker.
The Farmers' Conference met at Crocker's Hall May 19th, with Mr. Wablen presiding. Mr. Paul Blanford, county demonstrator, made the principal address. Other speakers were Messrs. W. W. Holland on banking; Robert Williams on general preparedness. It was considered one of the best meetings ever held. Many questions were asked and the speaker said the thought and questions were as intelligent as any body he ever addressed. It shows the progress our farmers are making.
Prof. R. E. Jones of Union University, Richmond, Va., passed through Suffolk May 19th and was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Crocker.
C., and wife spent Sunday in Suffolk, Va., the guest o his brother, Rev. C. L. Griffin. Mr. Rainer expects in the near future to make his home in Norfolk.
Rev. Griffin has secured the following subscriptions for the Journal and Guide: Mr. Ossie Williams of Suffolk; B. J. Thower, of Glinerton; Joseph Whitfield, Suffolk; J. C. Crocker, Suffolk; J. H. Lewis, of Holland. We thank them all.
Rev. Griffin was in the city Tuesday en route to Blackstone, Va.
FARMERS' CONFERENCE
Our Nansenom County farmers have begun their annual conferring. At Crocker's Hall last Saturday quite a number of our business farmers met and conferred about their very best interests. To say that they are really business men, would not fully tell past who they are. For they are real business farmers. Among them the reporter noted T. L. G. Walden, W. Luke, F. Holges, O. W. Luky, W. Holges, W. Luky, A. J. Holland, P. L. Lane, T. R. Rea, A. H. Lee, J. C. Carney, Mr. and Mrs. G. A. Raykun, Mrs. G. A. Troy and many others, whose names the reporter failed to get.
It is very interesting to note that this was what may easily be called a "Farmers' Love Feast." This is the way one of our city farmers put it to the reporter. Mrs. G. A. Troy was one of the interesting speakers. She gave work ideas and for expectation of work among the farmers the summer, canning of fruit and all kinds of vegetables. As industrial teacher for the county, she is expecting to begin instruction for canning as soon as there is something to can.
Prof. Blandford, Superintendent of Schools and County Demonstrator was the principle speaker. He did not begin his speech with "I always love to speak to you folks," but simply spoke to men and women as he found them. When he had finished he opened himself if a question box, and immediately he was able to answer all the questions he told to efficient farmers out to him, one of the most pertinent questions was by one of our city farmers. It was "Do you think our questions intelligent?" "Yes," came without the least hesitancy. "The conference was very much pleased with his address. Others gave very helpful talks. Mr. P. A. Hodges is one of the best informed of our farmers on the subject of raising hogs with especial care.
LEARN A TRADE AND PAY YOUR WAY THROUGH SCHOOL BY WORK.

John M. Brown A. M. E. Church Notes.
Have you seen the Motios on the walls of our church? If not come and read them. The members are certainly keeping this one in mind: "I WILL, PRAY MORE, DO MORE AND GIVE MORE." Everybody has a mind to work. We had 117 in S. S., two additions to S. S., and good lesson, injunct singing and lively music by the orchestra. Supt. Davis and his staff are increasing in efficiency all the time. The sermon at 11 a.m. was an intellectual as well as a spiritual treat. "Reconciling the God of Love and Wrath" was the subject Ps. 1458: 9 and Nahum 1:2. Among other points brought out, developed and illustrated was this one which will stick with us, "Our interpretation and conception of God depend upon our relation and adjustment to his laws and commandments. God is absolutely Love, never has been, can be and never will be anything else;

but as physical life is an adjustment to physical environments, so is spiritual life adjustment to laws of the Kingdom." This was a masterly harmonization of apparent contradictory passages of Scripture. At night Rev. Hatcher preached the anniversary sermon to the colored graduate nurses of Tidewater, subject: "The Heart and Duty of the cultured Nurse." Luke 10:33, 34. By anthropological deductions, Rev. Hatcher proved that the professions of Medicine and Nursing were evolutions from the priesthood, hence callings. He made plain the kind of heart the nurses should have and the duties they should perform. Drs. Mathas and Tyrd both gave excellent talks to the head and nurses.
N. 11 a.m., the following trustees were installed: A. S. Pinner, E. Jackson, E. J. Malewy, Chas. Berry, J. Counders, Lewis Stanton, J. Cornick, M. Epps, and S. Jones. We were blessed with 3 accessories: Miss Family Brown, Miss Carrie Brown and Mrs. M. Taylor, Collection $32,000, Let others follow. The kelly spirit is high. Watch us raise $1500 and increase 100 in membership. Sunday is PENTACOST. Come out expecting the decent of Holy Ghost. Pastor will preach on the "Origin and Meaning of Pentacost." At night he will preach from Nech. 6:3: "I am doing a great work, so that I cannot come down." Subject: "On The Job." You are invited. The Midget Wedding given by Mrs. Hather was a great success and compliment to her. $12 was made.
You are asked to give a cordial reception to the ladies who will visit your home Block Day, Thursday, May 24th. They will return to get your contribution Monday, May 28th. Do not return an empty envelope. Even a penny and a cheery word will help if you cannot give more. Meetings are being held every evening at the building for the purpose of assigning workers to the various streets. You do not need an invitation to be a worker. Every woman in the city has a share in this work. Come and help us to make Block Day a success.
Why work? . One instance: A mother, daughter, and sick child from Jacksonville, Fla., to New York, find themselves in Norfolk short of funds. They spent one night at a lodging house, and not wishing to stay without paying, went to the Union Station to spend the night. The porter informed them that the station closed at night. He told them that he felt sure the Y. W. C. A. would take them in and he brought them to the home, offering to pay their expenses. They remained with us two days and three nights before being able to leave the city. Other cases are too numerous to mention.
Mrs. Mittie Lacy, the sister of W. M. Wyatt, departed this life Monday, May 24th, at twelve o'clock. She leaves a husband, four daughters-in-law and five brothers.

AMUSEMENTS
The shows at the Palace improve with age, both in quality of the service and in the increase in attendance. Any one who has visited The Palace the past week will say that the acts were better "than" and that the utmost decorum was observed, so that the most insidious could have no cause "to kick." Cole and Cole opened with a gay song and a dancing stunt that was splendid as a starter. "I Am Looking For Jones," by Cole, was very good. The ballad is old, but always makes a hit when sung properly. "You Missed A Good Woman When You Picks All Over Me," by his partner, was their best Mit. She sings well, managing the dialogue in great shape. The dancing was up to the minute.
Bledseau and Byrd were excellent. Miss Byrd's voice is rich and clear, and her singing was the feature of their act. "I'm Only Trying To, Put You Wise," "Jelly Roll," "She Sure Looks A Dangerous Girl," were all rendered with good effect. Bledseau's jokes were very good, and as a ventriloquist he is a real star. "Green Grass Mason, Comedian," is the way his name appeared on the boards, and he is some comedian. "That's all." Walker and Brown are a clever pair. The former is much of a comedian and provoked much laughter by his funny jokes. Miss Brown's singing of "Why Make Me Love You and Then Break My Heart," was very finely rendered, and is a coorking selection. She is very much of a mocking bird. The burlesque dances were great and seemed to be favorites with the house this week.
The neatest and classiest couple who have been at the Palace for a long time were kept for the last, Parker and Parker appearing in their sailor boy act, and were "the best over." There was no blackface business with them, and their team work was carried out without a hitch, the drill being as good as can be produced. The music by the orchestra has been one of the special features, under the splendid leadership of Professor W. E. Carter, pianist, assisted by such accomplished musicians as H. Jones, Mr. Anderson, Mr. Wagner and Frank Smith.
A NEW SCHEME AT THE PALACE.
The readers of the Journal and Guide will be interested to learn that the management of The Palace have decided upon some innovations in the regular program at their popular house that will appeal to them. It has been decided to create a new scheme, to be called Amateur Night, beginning next Wednesday night, three or four amateurs appearing each Wednesday night. Three prizes—first, second and third—will be awarded the amateurs, according to the degree of excellence they demonstrate, the preference to be given those actors who receive the greatest applause from the audience.
which will be every Thursday matinee, which every child will be admitted for five cents (when accompanied by one of the coupons the management proposes to distribute among the children of the city. We are sure these new innovations will appeal to the patrons of the Palace and prove highly beneficial to the many patrons of this popular theatre.
The Manhattan Theatre will present Theod Bara, the famous movie star, Saturday, in Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet," in seven parts. The final episode of "Patria," showing Mrs. Vernon Castle at her best, in triumph, will be given. The manager, Mr. Lewis, is very courteous, and patrons may expect too at his theatre the best pictures that are thrown on the screens anywhere.
2 LITTLE BAY BEACH.
The warm, salty days are upon us and soon will be intense, especially in the crowded districts of the city. Everybody will be wanting to get away from the city, and spend an hour by the side of the waters and where the cooling breezes blow, and where there are opportunities for enjoyment of the recreations that go along with the heated term. Little Bay Bench, easily to be reached, offers all that could be desired in this way. It has been greatly improved since the last season, improved in every respect. Don't forget this. (See advt.)
