Guide Quality PRINTING Brings Results KNIGHTS OF GIDEON MEET Twentieth Annual Session Held In Danville ORDER ENJOYED YEAR OF SPLENDID GROWTH Outstanding Feature of Gideons Is To Serve, Declares The Supreme Commander GREAT JUBILEE PLANNED Biggest Event In History of Order To Be Held In Norfolk Next Year (By Geo. R. Jones.) Danville, Va., Aug. 14.—The Supreme Grand Lodge Knights of Gideon convened at 10 o'clock a. m., in the Lynn St., A. M. E. Church on the above date in this city, the Rev. J. J. Mainor, Supreme Commander of the Order, presiding. The usual form of opening the Grand Lodge was observed. After which the Supreme Commander in his usual forceful and inspiring manner, delivered his opening address, which was immensely enjoyed by all who heard it. One of the outstanding features of this society said he, is to serve the members under its care, for not in the history of the organization have you been called upon for greater sacrificing service than today. It is therefore necessary that each of you enter into the services that are to follow, in prayer to God and with a fixed purpose to serve. The various committees were then appointed, a recess was then taken. Evening Session of the First Day. The devotionals were conducted by the writer and Sir C. J. Jones of Radford, Va. "No need of failing if we try" was the subject read and ably discussed by Mrs. J. C. Ashburn of Mt. Hermon, Va., a very beautiful Anthem was sung by the Grand Lodge Choir. The Rev. Isaac Ewer pastor of St. Luke A. M. E. Church was then introduced to preach the Annual Sermon, who selected as a text Judges 7:18 from which the Reverend delivered a most excellent sermon. Second Day-Morning Session The Grand Lodge was called to order, the devotional exercises were conducted by the Prelate Brother C. J. Jones. Reports of Deputies were called for and submitted. At 10:45 a.m.; the Supreme Lodge was called off to hear the Welcome Address by His Honor the Mayor of the City. The choir sang a selection. After which the Supreme Commander introduced the Mayor who spoke as follows: "Mr Chairman, Representatives of the Society of Gideons, Ladies and Gentlemen, I am pleased to welcome you this morning to the hospitality of the citizens of Danville. There are four railroads leading into this city, which makes it a most convenient place, for organizations of this kind to meet. I am always glad to welcome representative men and women who come to our city to deliberate for the benefit of their constituents; but I am particularly pleased to no desire to receive emoluments for welcome you, who come here with your services. I wish to congratulate you for the growth of your Order since you were here last. I welcome you to a city of God-fearing people; patriotic citizens. When the draft law went into effect last month our colored citizens were as anxious as the white people to defend the Flag of their country. I wish to inform you Mr. President that nothing but the very best feelings exist between the whites and colored people of Danville. In this day of strife and war between the nations of the world, it is necessary that there should be peace and harmony among the races of the United States and too every man, woman and eligible child should unite with some organization, of all I know of, The Journal and Guide REV. JOHN J. MAINOR, Supreme Commander and One of the Founders of the Knights of Gideon, Fraternal and Beneficial Society. 1 there is none better and more substantial than the one you present here today. My prayer to our heavenly Father is that your sessions may be both harmonious and profitable, and should you feel to come again soon, remember the same cordial welcome extended you now awaits you. Again I welcome you, and when your convention shall have come to its final close I trust you will carry with you to your several homes fond recollections of the treatment accorded you, the three days you spent in the city on the "Dam." Sir E. J. Puryear, treasurer of the Supreme Lodge, responded as follows: Mr. Chairman:—I hardly know how to respond to the eloquent words of welcome coming from his Honor the Mayor of this city. I wish to say however, that we will lacept all you have said, first because it strikes me, that these words of welcome come from a religious and partiotic heart, a man who seems to appreciate the principles of brotherly love so essential to the development of all kindreds and peoples that inhabit this great world in which we live. This is a welcome the kind of which I have not heard for many months. But this gentleman official from another race who speaks to us this morning, seems to recognize the fact that "out of one blood God created all nations to dwell upon the face of the earth," and that "One is your Master even Christ and all ye are Brethren." Let us treasure up in our minds the words of wisdom, brought us by the Mayor of this progressive city. "The average white man does not understand our people, he does not understand our religion, it seems however, his Honor understands us very well. We wish to again thank you for the welcome you have given us, and promise you to do all in our power to uphold the dignity of the Order we represent here today." The report of the Supreme o__ccers were then read by the Supreme Scribe Sir F. E. Puryear, which showed the Order to be in a most flourishing condition; thousands of dollars had been collected and paid to the beneficiaries of the Sixty-three Sir Knights and Sisters who, since the meeting of the last Grand Lodge session have crossed the "river" death. The report contained also the suggestion that the Juvenile Department be put on a more firm basis. Passing this report to the proper committee other business of the session was then attended to. The Grand Lodge adjourned. Benediction by Rev. J. H. Ruffin. The literary exercise of the second day evening session was indeed an interesting affair, Mrs. H. B. Hunter, presided. The following named persons participated: Mrs. G. B. Robrts, Mrs. Minetta E. Miller, Norfolk, Va., Mrs. Sallie D. Chinn, Brandy, Va., Miss I. F. Davis, Smithfield, Va., Mrs. Annie E. Vick, Suffolk, Va.; Mr. F. E. Puryear, Norfolk, Va. The most intertaining feature of the evening was the three selections rendered by the White Rose Quartette of Danville, that Quartette compares NORFOLK, VA., ,SATURDAY AUGUST 25, 1917 favorably with the well known Hampton or Fisk Quartettes. At this point the Supreme Commander wa sintroduced and delivered his Annual Address, which was to say the least the finest he has ever made to a Grand Lodge. He touched upon every phase of the Order, but laid special stress upon the duties of the Deputies and officials of the subordinate lodges, said he, "You as representatives of the Order cannot serve effectively unless you ar willing to sacrifice for your people. While you live and have the opportunity do what you can, and your reward is assured. Third Day's Morning Session. The Grand Lodge reassembled at 9:15 a. m., the Supreme Commander presiding. The report of the Committee on the Supreme officers' report was called for and submitted. The Committee on Memoirs reported through its chairman the Rev. J. H. Ruffin. The election of officers was next in order, Mrs. Helen B. Hunter of Suffolk, Va., was unanimously re-elected Deputy Scribe, Sir Frank Price, Danville, Va., Master at Arms; Sir C. J. Jones, Radford, Va., Worthy Prelate; Sister Nannie Jackson, Pocahontas, Va., I G.; Sir Britton Joyner of Newsome, Va., O. G. Sir J. S. Wallace, Oldfield, Va., Supreme Lecturer.

Peerless Class No. 63 Danville, Va., under the direction and supervision of Sisters Ida Parker and Emma Liscomb was out in full strength, in dress regalia. A comprehensive report coming from the Committee on the Extension of the Juvenile Department was read submitting many plans for broadening and extending the work. Among the many helpful suggestions made, was the idea of establishing of a day to be known as Juvenile Day throughout the Jurisdiction, when the several classes in their respective localities would turn out rendering fitting programs to celebrate the occasion. A most excellent and detailed report by Mrs. M. E. Miller of Norfolk, who had been deputized to get some facts and data regarding this branch of the work was submitted. The report was discussed pro and con and many helpful suggestions for the future were brought out. The following program was rendered by the children, showing the beautiful and helpful training that is being given by those in charge.

O. Gilbert, State superintendent of instruction, who has returned from Blue Ridge, N. C., where he attended the Conference on Law and Order, called to consider the race problem in the South, was impressed with the manner in which those who attended the conference came out flat-footed for a square deal for the Negro. The economic factor, he says was recognized as fundamental in the problem and while noting the success of the many of the more able members of the race, the conference held to the principle of the stronger races helping instead of exploiting the backward to the end that the race can contribute more to the enrichment of their own lives and to the lives of all. The conference was made up entirely of leading southern educators and was called to make "America safe for democracy; that it may make the world safe." The wholesale emigration of Negroes from the South and the race riots and lynching in the North and West, which speedily followed the advent of the new and unaccustomed element in the several communities, impelling the conference, the members of which agreed that the race problem is a seriously growing one in this country. In a series of resolutions the conference deprecated lack of certain and speedy justice in the courts; proposed the public commendation of officers who resist mob violence and the cultivation of a public opinion that will make it impossible for a public officer who fails to do his duty to retain his o-ce; recognized home-overship as the basis of stable, secure citizenship for Negroes, as well as for whites; recommend the establishment of law and order leagues to correct conditions that lead to insanitation, poverty, disorder and crime; recommend the establishment of a speakers bureau for the dissemination of proper knowledge on these subjects and the raising of a fund to defray expenses of the bureau; favored placing literature on the race question in all public libraries and the introduction of textbooks into the Negro public schools on elemental morality, on lives of eminent Negroes and for the progress of the race. WIDESPREAD INTEREST IN NATIONAL RACE CONGRESS Colored Americans "Brought To Their Feet" By Memphis, East St. Louis And Chester. Boston, Mass., August 23, 1917:—That the Colored people of the country have been "brought to their feet" by the Memphis lynching, East St. Louis massacre and Chester riots, is shown by the instant interest taken in the Call issued for a "Speedy Getting Together" at New York by Rev. Byron Gunner, President of the National Equal Rights League. Already President Gunner has received word from representatives in a dozen different states who will attend the 10th annual meeting of the League and 2nd Annual Race Congress under the League's auspices, which will be held 3 days, September 18, 19 and 20, in Mother Zion church, W. 136th street, New York City.

SCHOOL ANNOUNCEMENTS On Page 6 PRICE:- FIVE CENTS LOUISIANA GETS RIGHT VIEWPOINT Will Spend More Money Than Ever On Education For The Negro LESSON FROM MIGRATION Convinced That Negroes Can Be Kept In South Only By Better BATON ROUGE, Ln.—Louisiana is planning to do more for the Negro this year than she has ever done in any one year since the black man ceased to be a chattel of his master. The appropriation for industrial work among the Negroes for the 12 months from June 20, 1917, has been increased by $9000, half of which comes from several foreign funds, and the remainder from contributions of citizens who have been persuaded that the only way in which the Negro can be kept in the South is by giving him better wages and surrounding him with as good conditions and as great opportunities as he can find in the North. A special agent has just been employed to take charge of the free education of the Negroes along lines of farming, cattle and poultry raising, carpentering, repair work, gardening and similar branches. In addition, the agent will have supervision over the canning work of Negro women in five parishes, all regular industrial work for the blacks and special industrial work in three parish schools where Negroes are taught trades.

From all sections of the country reports have come showing that a larger number of young men and women have graduated from the higher institutions of learning for the school year 1017 than ever before. The financial condition of many of these institutions is also good considering the stringent times caused by the European war and America's entrance into the same. Among the institutions of the higher type which closed the fiscal year clear of debt is the National Training school at Durham, N. C., of which Dr. James E. Shepard is president. William T. Bost of Raleigh, N. C., in a letter to the New York Evening Post regarding Dr. Shepard says: "Permit me to say for a prominent colored man and unattiring worker for [Image of a man in a suit with a tie]. DR. JAMES E. SHEPARD. his race, Dr. James E. Shepard, that in the recent commencement exercises of the National Training school at Durham, N. C., of which he is president, a condition was disclosed that is a very inspiring example to all people. "The Evening Post's clientele has been contributor to the philanthropies that have revolutionized the thinking on what is known as the Negro problem. Fifty years ago this missionary work began. There was little disposition to interfere with the black man if he were trained merely to do useful work. Fifty years later is a demand for similar training in all the schools for all the children. "Dr. Shepard less than a decade ago established his school. It has had more than its share of ups and downs, but a few days ago, when he closed the year, he was able to present a clean sheet for the second time in as many school years. "A man of his pull and prominence had every temptation to go north, where salaries are larger, work lighter and worries absent. Instead he has put his school timely on a business basis, has converted unbelieving enemies and despairing friends and won to his institution the friendship of substantially all the white people of his community and the state. "I think it is a valuable lesson to those who have not felt the thrill and the blessedness of battle to know that in the colored race here in North Carolina are men and women who are ideal Christians, because they have utterly lost themselves in a divine self forgetfulness." WHEAT STREET BAPTIST. Members of Famous Atlanta (Ga.) Church to Rebuild Edifice. The recent fire which destroyed a large part of the residential section of Atlanta, Ga., also swept away the famous Wheat Street Baptist church. More than a thousand members of this church are practically without homes as a result of the contagion, and yet they are struggling heroically with what means they can spare from their daily bread to aid in a fund being raised for the rebuilding of their church edifice. Another pleasing feature about the situation is the friendly co-operation with the pastor and members of a large number of influential white people. The church property was valued at $100,000, and the insurance amounted to less than $14,000. The Baptists of the country should by all means lend a helping hand to this very worthy congregation. Communications addressed to the Rev. Dr. P. James Bryant, Atlanta, Ga., will receive proper attention. Sunday Schools to Meet In Yonkers. The annual meeting of the New York state Sunday school convention will be held with the Messiah Baptist Sunday school at Yonkers, N. Y., on Thursday and Friday, July 19 and 20.

NORFOLK, VA., SATURDAY, AUGUST 25, 1917 PLAIN TALK Migration has made the servant problem acute in Elizabeth City, N. C., just as it has in hundreds of other towns in the South. The cooks, housemaids and nurses have been hard pressed by the high cost of living and hundreds of them have answered the call of higher wages in other parts of the country. Some have decided to stay in Elizabeth City but they have let it be known that the tenant better pay for the services they render. The Elizabeth City Independent is in sympathy with the servant class and hands the housewives of the city some plain talk on the subject. In the course of an article setting forth the needs of the working women the Independent says: The Negro cooks, nurses and housemaids are demanding more money. And these Negro girls and women are going to get more pay or seek other fields of employment. Many a white woman who has never wrestled with a kitchen range or manicured her fingernails on a juniper washboard will find a new meaning in these things before the summer is over. It is going to be hard on the women for a season, but it will drive them to an acquaintance with their household affairs which will be decidedly beneficial to mankind and will enforce more simplified and more economical methods of housekeeping. By paying better wages and by abandoning oblique methods of handling the working women, the housewives of Elizabeth City and of the white youth will solve their problems of domestic service as the standard of living goes up women require better pay in order to meet it. The head-rag and other-hubbard type of kitchen mechanic is paying and is being supplanted by either a worse better type of domestic. Worse if poor pay is offered and better if pay is consistent with the services required. Migration has made the servant problem acute in Elizabeth City, N.

A LYNCHING THAT WAS NOTICED The lynching in Montana of Frank Little, member of the executive board of the Industrial Workers of the World, on account of his activity in inciting labor troubles, has received more attention in the columns of the press than all the third lynchings of Negroes that have occurred since January 1st. Papers in all parts of the county have devoted more or less space to the untimely and unlawful taking off of Mr. Little, some finding grounds upon which to excuse it and others taking the position that it was indefensible from a new point. Even Dr. Lyman Abbott's revered Outlook," which passed the recent Memphis herder without comment, made a very strained effort to become horrified at the lawlessness of the slave men who summarily executed the I. W. Leader. The American conscience needs to be reached by the lynching evil, and the occasional lynching of white man affords the Church and the white pre-religious and secular, an opportunity to be quoted against the great American evil. The lynching of Negroes does not seem to arouse any appreciable interest on the part of press or pulpit, and so it is the federal government is concerned intervention would be an invasion of "States' rights." The lynching in Montana of Frank Little, a member of the executive board of the Industrial Workers of the World, on account of his activities in inciting labor troubles, has received more attention in the columns of the press than all the thirtyodd lynchings of Negroes that have occurred since January 1st. Papers in all parts of the country have devoted more or less space to the untimely and unlawful taking off of Mr. Little, some finding grounds upon which to excuse it and others taking the position that it was indefensible from any viewpoint. Even Dr. Lyman Abbott's reverent "Outlook," which passed the recent Memphis horror without comment, made a very strained effort to become horrified at the lawlessness of the six Bute men who summarily executed the I. W. W. leader. The American conscience needs to be reached on the lynching evil, and the occasional lynching of a white man affords the Church and the white press, religious and secular, an opportunity to be quoted against the great American evil. The lynching of Negroes does not seem to arouse any appreciable interest on the part of press or pulpit, and so far as the federal government is concerned intervention would be an invasion of "States' rights." VIRGINIA YIELDS ONE After a long period of law observance a lynchie occurred in Virginia on Wednesday, August 15th, northumberland county furnished the stage in the tragedy and the victim was a colored man who had been drafted in the United States army. The lynching raised the nice question as to whether the federal government should undertake to prosecute the lynchers, the victim being in the service of the government as a soldier, or having been drafted for that purpose. It was almost immediately ended, however, by the war department that the time was committed against the State of Virginia and not against the United States government, as the matter of prosecution would be left to the state. This is another incident to emphasize the were limitations of the federal government instrued by the present administration.

These, the war stated, would be left as a home ground for their native States. While this much Northern States as had counselsmen, a Southerner who is here are no colored Guards in the South, giving protest to the Raleigh (NC) server: "Possible that Southern Congressional district so far down into the quagmire of Southern traditions; is it believable or forgotten the '60s'? Do they ignore this disapproval that must inevitably rise every true Southern in case Negroes in the white women and 'old men' of this time as regards methods of war with a number of citizens, who have a defect to me, wish to raise my voice that God forbid the use of our best while the South shall suffer the decision of having to depend upon Negro defense. Is heard from you through your paper, I mean I think you are you will make impossible for North Carolina, at least." A man who wrote the above was the '60's and probably got his reasons of those days from reading books. It is inconceivable that a Soldier through the period of the Civil War the fidelity and devotion of his entitations, and to the women, he left behind by the Confederate latter such a slander against the those slaves. There is no real resistance of the black men who work and support the women and children violating or betraying the most Southern traditions to expedition to a trust in free Negroes whose virtues in them, it is high, he was forgetting such traditions in war places the American Negro in position before the world. So able to discover no other nation great world-conflict has attached to any of its subjects as the America the American government have mobilization of the black fighting country. As a soldier and defender the Negro is made an object of scourrulous and scandalous attack by civilians and government officials are directed in accordance with an element of this country to hold of democracy is government by force, and nothing more. To the war who are combining their reservation without regard to racial prejudice, in an effort to win its treatment of the Negro sold something that they cannot undertoot to fight the battles of civil war the rights of weaker people world safe for democracy while ensure racial intolerance at home in an unenviable position. TRADITIONS THAT SHOULD BE FORGOTTEN The war department announced recently that colored troops would not be ordered to Southern camps, and that the order referred especially to colored National Guard. These, the war department stated, would be left as a home guard or defense for their native States. While this meant, of course, such Northern States as had colored National Guardsmen, a Southerner who is not aware that there are no colored Guards in the South, sent the following protest to the Raleigh (N. C.) News and Observer: Is it possible that Southern Congressional delegations have fallen so far down into the quagmire of disrespect for Southern traditions; is it believable that they have forgotten the '60s'? Do they ignore the sentiment of disapproval that must inevitably rise from the lips of every true Southerner in case Negroes are left to guard the white women and 'old men' of the South? I am not a man to question the methods of the government at this time as regards methods of warfare, but I along with a number of citizens, who have mentioned the subject to me, wish to raise my voice in strong appeal that God forbid the use of our best boys in France, while the South shall suffer the disgraceful humiliation of having to depend upon Negroes for home defense. Let us hear from you through your paper. If you are the man I think you are you will make such a thing impossible for North Carolina, at least. The man who wrote the above was probably born since the '60's and probably got his knowledge of conditions of those days from reading after bias historians. It is inconceivable that a Southerner who lived through the period of the Civil War and witnessed the fidelity and devotion of the slaves to the plantations, and to the women, children and old men left behind by the Confederate armies, should utter such a slander against the descendants of those slaves. There is no record of a single instance of the black men who were left to protect and support the women and children of the confederacy violating or betraying the trust. If it is against Southern traditions to expect loyalty and devotion to a trust in free Negroes, or to respect those virtues in them, it is high time that the South was forgetting such traditions. This war places the American Negro in a humiliating position before the world. So far as we have been able to discover no other nation involved in the great world-conflict has attached such a stigma to any of its subjects as the American people and the American government have attached to the mobilization of the black fighting men of this country. As a soldier and defender of his country the Negro is made an object of base contempt and scurrilous and scandalous attacks at the hands of civilians and government officials. His movements are directed in accordance with the whims of an element of this country to whom the meaning of democracy is government by the Democrat party, and nothing more. To the other nations at war who are combining their resources and man power without regard to racial distinctions and petty prejudice, in an effort to win the war, American's treatment of the Negro soldier is evidently something that they cannot understand. Going out to fight the battles of civilization, to establish the rights of weaker peoples and to make the world safe for democracy while indulging such intense racial intolerance at home places America in an unenviable position.

Taft has been mentioned as successor to the late Dr. Frissell as principal of Hampton Institute. Mr. Taft is now chairman of the Hampton board of trustees and has taken an active interest in the affairs of the school for several years. His interest in Hampton, and in the education of the Negro and Indian races cannot be questioned, and his ideals of education have coincided with those held by the late principal of the school. That he would continue Dr. Frissell's policies is certain. He would be acceptable to the South as well as the North and his large experience in administrative affairs would give increased efficiency to the institution. It is doubtful, however, whether the former president of the United States would care to encumber himself with the exacting duties and responsibilities of the principalship of Hampton Institute.

It is possible that if this Mississippi grand jury and sheriff had gotten on the job earlier it would not have been necessary to send an army to Europe.

"The great abundance of 'war-garden' and truck products in cities and rural communities offers an immediate opportunity for consumers locally to help better the world food situation," say the dietary specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture. "Make fresh vegetables' and fruits save staple foods. Eat the perishable fresh fruits and vegetables now, while they are most delicious, and can and preserve them for future use." The following available fresh fruits and vegetables may be classified for this war-emergency diet: Apples, peaches, pears, plums, blackberries, raspberries, beets, carrots, potatoes, onions, beans, peas, sugar corn, tomatoes, cabbage, lettuce, etc. Fresh Foods Now Abundant. Right now there is an abundance of these foods ripening in the "war gardens" of many cities and rural districts as well as on the farms. Housewives are urged to use those from their own gardens first. If they have no garden, they should purchase from local markets or farmers or neighbors while prices are low, and not only serve daily, but can, preserve, pickle and dry for winter use. Wherever the vegetables named are available abundantly from home gardens or can be purchased cheaply in the markets, or from neighbors ,their use in the diet to a greater extent than usual will help food conditions. In general, the more simply vegetables and fruits are prepared for the table the better, but when they are being consumed in especially large quantities it often will be desirable to vary the dishes. Vegetables May Replace Meat. "Although fresh vegetables ordinarily are eaten by most persons in relatively small amounts with more concentrated foods, such as meats, eggs, cheese, etc.," declared a food expert of the department, "they may, when eaten in large quantities, take the place of the more concentrated foods to a certain extent. Because of the present large production of perishable fruits and vegetables, this partial substitution is especially desirable during the next six weeks or two months." The New August Agricultural Bulletin. Commissioner Koiner is mailing out the Department's August Bulletin to all farmers whose names are on the Department's lists. This bulletin contain very practical and helpful discussions on most important matters conducive to profitable farming. The importance of the farmers in increasing their Live Stock, Precautions against the spread of hog cholera, the cost of the production of the wheat crop, Blight on the late potato crop which is a large one in this State, the work in the Division of Markets, Valuable information on the apple crop, the importance of farmers in co-operating in their shipments, the Storage of crops, the Saving of next year's seed, Analysis of fertilizer and etc. These bulletins are full of practical and helpful information that will enable the farmer, if he is guided by them, to sell at better prices and save useless expense. They cost the farmer nothing and every farmer who does not get them should at once send his name to Commissioner Koiner with the request that his name be enrolled on the Department's list.

PIERCE If there is any one medicinal agent holds a very prominent place among the drugs for preventive treatment of typhoid fever, it is typhoid vaccine. It is a contribution to the medical profession that a short while back, it was viewed with great suspicion and doubt as to its efficacy, and it did not meet with much favor from the profession or the laity. Like the small-pox vaccine, it had its difficulties in winning the recognition it should have from both the profession and the general population. But after many trials and good results, it has gradually won its merited place in medicine, and the outlook for its continuation seems very prospective. More and more there is an increased advocacy on the part of the physician for the employment of this remedy for preventive measures against this disease. More and more the prejudice against this remedy by both the medical men and the laity is being broken down, and this remedy is being given a chance, by intelligent employment, to the end that it is used very generally by all classes of people and in all communities. Reports coming from large medical fields pove that it has lived up to its representation in preventing typhoid infection. Its try-out in the army and navy gives sufficient date to offset the skepticism concerning its use as a reasonable specific in typhoid prevention. The number of cases of typhoid occurring in these branches of the national service where the vaccine was employed, is negligible in comparison with the number of cases occurring when it was not used. In private practice similar testimony is produced to corroborate the claims of typhoid vaccine. The employment of the typhoid vaccine is an intentional infection. It is the introduction into the human blood of a large number of killed typhoid Mr. James Rix and Miss Linnie Cuffee will be married a the M. Lebanon Baptist Church on 22nd inst., Rev. J. H.

G. H. Spaulding at Dendron, Va., the members of the Cypress Baptist church Runnymede, Va., was out in large numbers. Rev. Spaulding succeeded in raising one hundred and sixteen dollars. Rev. Alexander spoke in the highest terms of the success being made by this progressive pastor. Revival Meeting commenced at the Mt. Moriah A. M. E. Church pastored by Rev. R. H. Davis on last Sunday. The amount of forty dollars was raised on the first day. Rev. Davis preached for Rev. G. H. Spaulding at Cuffees Chapel on Sunday night last. Rev. J. H. Alexander will baptize on the first day of September at Wall's Bridge, the revival closed at Cypress Baptist Church with nine conversions and hand of fellowship was given to two persons. J. H.

STANDARD HOLDING BIG SHOE SALE One of the biggest shoe sales of the year was started yesterday at the Standard Shoe Store, 239 Church Street, when $15,000 worth of shoes were placed on sale at factory prices.

Saturday, August 25, 1917 germs manufactured scientifically and prepared with all the precautions against risks of health. It is a safe procedure for health protection, removing a great deal of anxiety and fear when exposure to the possibility of typhoid fever takes place. Since its use has been recommended and encouraged by both local and state health boards, there has been a large reduction in typhoid cases, and a diminution in mortality from this particular disease. A few dollars for preventive treatment is better than many dollars for cure and a saner means of preserving one's best interests in every way. The vaccine is proving its value to the general public and it will continue to do so. It is a safe remedy to try and the results are generally satisfactory. The person who avails himself of the opportunity have himself fortified against typhoid by the typhoid vaccine, does a wise thing and saves himself and others many hours of worry and misery. When the agent is introduced under the skillful technique of the physician, and under the best aseptic conditions, there is nothing to warrant the fear entertained by so many. The ground for the prejudice against this measure among the uninitiated is that they dislike to have their arms scratched. This is where they make an error. The method of vaccinating with typhoid vaccine, is entirely different from that of the small-pox vaccine. There is no scraping of surface with scapel as in the former. The remedy is injected with a needle which is done in a moment and there is not the prolonged method of scratching and cross-scratching before the vaccine is applied. It is done with ease and without much pain. It is a safe bet for any one to cover viewed from the point of health and happiness. SCHOOL OPENS SEPTEMBER 10 Good Eyes Are Essential To Proper Advancement in the Young Folk's Studies. It has been stated, upon reliable authority, that quite a large number of boys and girls fail to make the progress in school that their parents expect them to make because of poor eyesight. The low marks given in the children's "reports" are in many instances attributed entirely to impaired vision. Nervous, fidgety, peevish children, and those who suffer from headaches, should have their eyes examined before taking up their fall and winter studies. In connection with this, it is well to state that Dr. Masrow, the eyesight specialist has, for years, made a special study of children's eyes. His methods of examination do away entirely with the tedious answering by the children of wholly unnecessary questions, and before the patients have time to realize it, he has learned the cause of the trouble and prescribed the proper lenses to bring about the desired results. Dr. Masrow can be seen at his office from 9 a. m., to 5 p. m. Phone 219 for appointment.—Advertisement.

Well the Grand Lodge opened up in full blast at 11 o'clock nearly three- sgfourths of a hundred people could be heard singing praises to God, and well might they have thus sung, for not- withstanding the war and high cost of living, the man who Keeps the records intimated in his opening re- marks that all was “Safe on the Po- tomac.” ‘There was very little done the first day but renew acquaintances, appoint Byres and to get ready to hear nnual Sermon, delivered by Rev. ener.

Editor Journal and Guide: Sir: Kindly allow me space in your excellent paper to comment on the personnel an dproceedinys of the Roa- noke District Conference and Sunday School Institute of the African Meth- odist Episcopal Chureh, which was re- cently held here in our town. Disregurding: church affiliations, some of us availed ourselves of the opportunity to help entertain the dele- gation and distinguished visitors; and now that all is aver, we are certainly glad to have had such estimable peo- ple in our midst—men and women whose countenances shone with the light of God’s love and whose bearing, in every way told that they wre here © nbusiness for the King. The program, which consisted of several pleasing and helpful papers, eloquent addresses and sermons and spirited songs, made an indelible im- pression on many of us. But the most gratifying feature to the writer was the opening of the church doors—the call for souls to turn unto God—near the close of exch day’s work. How much like the Master if He were here presiding! And yet to some of us that was a novelty. We have attend- ed many Conventions and Associa- tions and there heard many erudite semons and taken part in many ur- dent devotions; but never before had we seen and felt the “revival” spirit as it was manifested in that Methodist conference nfter cach evening’s ser- mon. ‘The assumption that that is a com- mon practice of that body, gives risc to the questions! How long will denominationalism hold sway? How long will some of us be denied the right of full worship with those peo- ple and others who do work for God under different names? Since it is argued that we are entering into a new anthropological period in which will begin a fusion of the races; and that, judging from the signs of the times, Methodism will eventually die away; in fact, that in the course of time there will be 1 unification of all forces now extant among men, we have nothing to dc but hope that the cessation of denomi. national prejudices and the ultimate triumph of the Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man is not as far away as some are wont t¢ think. In the meantime while we wait for that happy era, may the constit uents of the great African Methddist Episcopal church along with those o! all other religious organizatins, con. tinue in prosperous activities. May each seek diligently for the Truth anc thus do the will of Him who has said Ye shall know the Truth and the Trutt shall make you free.” In closing, I wish to iterate and re. iterate’ our appreciation of the pleas. urable contact the confernce afforded us, (and to follow with the hope that it will come to our town again soon.
