C.—Under the most favorable circumstances the North Carolina Eastern Star Grand Lodge began its annual session last Wednesday at twelve o'clock M. Delegates from all over the State began coming in on Tuesday night and by Wednesday night there were four hundred of North Carolina's most representative Negro women. The grand opening at the Mount Zion Baptist Church was a most inspiring occasion. The cream of the state and the city were together. The music, especially prepared for the occasion, was rendered by the Mt. Zion choir under the direction of Mr. Baynard. The welcome addresses were delivered in appropriate and happy style by Mayor T. T. Thorne, Mrs. Sawyer, Messrs. A. T. Spicer and O. R. Pope, responses by Dr. Avant, G. W. Matron, Mrs. Sills, and Col. J. H. Young; Miss Katie Bunn presided as Mistress of Ceremonies. Immediately following the program an informal reception was given the delegates, Masons and friends at Alpha Theatre. It was the concensus of opinion that Rocky Mount never entertained the superiors of the Eastern Star Grand Lodge. Much credit is due to the members of the local lodge that numbers only thirty-one. That they were able to have such thorough preparation is due to the splendid work of Mesdames Eason, Simpson, Frazier, Worslly Sawyer and Miss Bunn for the local committee together with a number of friends who rendered faithful service. The next session will be held in High Point. Misses Emma Smith of Tarboro, and Mary Hardie of Raleigh have accepted positions in Lincoln School. Rocky Mount will have the honor of entertaining the next session of the great Lott Carey Convention. At the recent setting of the Eastern Star Grand Lodge Mrs. A. F. Spencer was elected for one of the district deputies. GREAT MASS MEETING SUNDAY AFTERNOON Hon. J. Thos. Newsome And Dr. Baird Among The Speakers.

MAKING BETTER THE STATUS OF RACE RELATIONS COLORED TROOPS Annual Educational Campaign Of Negro Organisation Society DR. R. R. MOTON AND PARTY Hanover, Goochland, Powhatan, Cumberland and Buckingham Counties In Itinerary Petersburg, Va.—The usual educational campaign of the Negro Organization Society was made during the week August 27 to September 1 and covered Hanover, Gouchland, Powhatan, Cumberland, and Buckingham Counties. The party of men who made the campaign was headed by Dr. Robert R. Moton, of Tuskegee Institute. Others were Major Allen Washington, of Hampton Institute; President J. M. Gandy and Prof. M. W. Connor, of Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute; Prof. T. C. Erwin, Field Agent of the Negro Organization Society; Mr. J. B. Pierce, District Negro Agent of Farm Demonstration Work; and Prof. D. G. Jacox, of Norfolk, who is president of the Negro State Teachers' Association. The meetings were attended by large numbers of both white and colored people. County officials delivered welcome addresses at all of the meetings and otherwise sought to make their guests feel at home. The colored people had arranged perfectly for the meetings and appreciated fully the meaning and possible benefits of such meetings. These meetings have been made annually to five years now and the territory covered in that time comprises nearly one-third of the state. They have served to awaken educational and industrial progress among our people and to cultivate friendlier relations between the races. A similar campaign was made during the four days of last week through the counties on Eastern Shore. The men making this campaign were same as on the former one with a few changes. LOCAL BRANCH OF URBAN LEAGUE FORMED Organized For Social Uplift Work In Norfolk At a meeting attended by a large number of representative citizens of Norfolk a local branch of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes was organized Tuesday night at the Booker T. Washington High School. Prof. George T. Haynes, one of the field secretaries of the League was present and assisted in the organization of the local branch after making an address outlining the purposes of the organization. Prof. D. G. Jacox was made president and Miss Charlina Casper, secretary of the local branch. The organization will undertake at once the accomplishment of certain civic reforms in Norfolk, among them the improvement of the streets of Huntersville and Barboursville. The committee in charge of this work is composed of Rev. J. S. Hatcher, Dr. R. J. Matthews and Mrs. Jane Casper. Another important work which will be undertaken is the establishment of a night business high school course at the Booker T. Washington School. A committee composed of Mr. J. T. P. Cross Mr. Thomas C. R. Bragg, Prof. Watts, and Prof. Curtis was appointed to confer with the school board in this matter. A committee on nomination of officers and naming of committees was appointed consisting of Dr. G. Jarvis Bowens, Rev. D. F. White, Mrs. Reid, Miss Bowling and Mr. Cromwell. The League will meet again Wednesday night, October 3rd, at Booker T. Washington High School auditorium and all citizens interested in the work are invited to attend.

Price..... 442 Another Statement From Secretary Baker Leaves That Question In Doubt SPARRING WITH SENTIMENT War Department Shifting Back And Forth Apparently In An Effort To Avoid Offending South The organization and training of the Negro division of the national draft army seem, to be giving the war department a lot of worry. Not that the war department does not know what it wants to do in the matter. Its problem is to handle the colored men who have been caught in the draft without offending the over-sensitive South, which drew practically all the cantonments when they were being located for the training of the national army. The South has suffered considerably with nervous and mental shock since it was first announced that Negro troops would be trained in the same cantonments with white troops, and the war department has been besieged with protests from Southern governors, senators, congressmen and chambers of commerce. The most recent statement issued by Secretary of War Baker indicates that matters are being shaped up to the satisfaction of Southern sentiment. "The rule of the regular army governing the training and organization of colored troops will be followed in the national army and they will be assembled and trained as separate organizations. "The call for the colored men to mobilize will be postponed until one of the later calls, so that they will be called to camp at a separate time, giving an opportunity for the officers at the camp to assemble the organizations of which they are a part at one time. They will not be called last, although they will be included in one of the later calls. "All colored troops called in a state which has a cantonment in it will be trained there. Provisions will be made, but has not yet been made, for the assembling from those states which have not cantonments of their quotas of colored soldiers for training." "Opportunity will be given to both the white and colored troops of the selective draft forces to volunteer in certain line of communication forces, which it will be necessary to organize and it is hoped that an adequate number will volunteer for this military, but non-combatant service. But there will be both combatant and non-combatant colored regiments." RIOTERS OF 24TH INFANTRY AT WACO SENTENCED San Antonio, Texas, Sept. 3.—Six colored soldiers of the Twenty-fourth Infantry, arrested for destroying signs denying service to colored people in public places and resisting police and a squad of troops sent to subdue them have been found guilty of violating the 93rd article of war. The court martial was held at Camp MacArthur, this city, and the officers sentenced five of the soldiers to 5 years each at Ft. Leavenworth Federal Prison with hard labor and the sixth to ten years. They are dishonorably discharged from the army and lose all pay and allowances due while confined. The finding has been forwarded to the War Department at Washington. DR. MOTON HAS TALK WITH PRESIDENT WILSON Washington, D. C.,—Dr. R. R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, had a twenty minute's conference with President Wilson on Friday of last week, in which the Negro question was discussed. Dr. Moton is said to have told the President that colored Americans were greatly discouraged over the unfriendly attitude of the present administration. The President is said to have expressed a desire that more cordial relations be established between the races. It is not known what assurances Mr. Wilson gave that he would soon speak out against lynching and other injustices to which the Negro is subjected. RACE RIOTS INVESTIGATION Washington, D. C.—Investigation of of the East St. Louis race riots by a congressional committee has been agreed to by the House. Rules Com- HAIR CULTURISTS FIRST CONVENTION Madam C. J. Walker Agents Held Interesting Session In Philadelphia. Philadelphia, Pa.—The first National Convention of the Madam C. J. Walker Agents will go down as remarkably historic in the life of this great woman. No one thought, not even Madam herself, that the Convention would be the crowning success that it really was. The sessions were held in the Union Baptist Church, Fitzwater Street near 19th, a modern structure in every sense of the word, a credit to its membership and a monument to its genial and brilliant pastor. It was wonderful to see the delegates pouring in from the far South to the distant West. They came, until over two hundred well dressed women, representing nearly every State in the Union, sat as delegates to the first Walker Convention. Madam Walker then stated that at a Convention composed of graduates of the Walker system, who were experts in all things pertaining to the hair, it should not be necessary to request that the ladies remove their hats. Every hat was then voluntarily removed and a wonderful picture that told the story of the unfolding and transformation of a race was revealed which more than attested the fact that it was composed lies in her hair." The significant fact about this great Convention wa sthat it was composed of the business women of the race who have succeeded and paid their way to tell about their success, see their great leader and get new ideas and inspiration, as well as transact business. The Convention was an education in itself from the Mayor's welcoming address to the final adjournment. Every session was inspiring, harmonious and instructive. The morning sessions were given over to business, the afternoon and evenings to the public, at which time many speakers of National prominence addressed the Convention among whom were:— Welcome Address on part of City, Mr. E. J. Catell, City Statistician, Philadelphia. Address by Dr. W. G. Parks, Pastor of Union Baptist Church, Philadelphia. Mr. Clarence Wells, Representative Lincoln Motion Picture Co. Mrs. Ruth L. Bennett, Penn. State Federation of Colored Women's Club, Chester, Pa. Mme. C. J. Walker, "Woman's Duty to Women." Mr. F. B. Ransom, "The Purpose of the Organization." Mrs. S. W Layton, Pres. Association for the Protection of Colored Women, Philadelphia Hon. Geo. L. Knox, Editor of the Freeman, Indianapolis, Ind. Mr. G. Grant Williams, Pres. of Progressive Business Association, Phila. Mr. Walter Sammons, of the Monarch Talking Machine Co., Phila. Miss Marie Carrington, New York. Madam Walker in a ringing message spoke of the present war and advised her people to remain loyal to their homes, their country and flag, stating that "after all, this is the greatest country under the sun," but, said the Madam, "We must not let our love of country, our patriotic loyalty cause us to abate one whit in our protest against wrong and injustice; we should protest until the American sense of justice is so aroused that such affairs as the East St. Louis riot be forever impossible." Every delegate was loud in her praise of the Philadelphia Union of which Mrs. Margaret Thompson is President. No stone was left unturned by this wide awake organization to make the Convention the great success that it really was. Every entertainment and courtesy was shown the delegates and every one left in high spirit to make ready for Chicago, August the 15th and 16th, 1917, the time and place for the next National Convention of Walker Agents. At the Convention the following was sent to President Wilson:— President Woodrow Wilson, Honored Sir:— We the representatives of the National Convention of the Mme. C. J. Walker's Agents in Convention assembled and in a larger sense representing twelve million Negroes, have keenly felt the injustice done our race and country through the recent lynching at Memphis, Tenn., and horrible race riot at East St. Louis and knowing that no people in all the world are more loyal and patriotic than the Colored people of America, we respectfully submit to you-this our protest against the continuation of such wrongs and injustices in this "land SCHOOL ANNOUNCEMENTS On Page 6 PRICE:- FIVE CENTS GETS AHEAD OF THE MILITARY Houston Civil Authorities Conduct Investigation Into Causes Of Recent Riot FINDINGS INTERESTING Declare That Soldiers "Planned" Riot Insults Offered Them Only "Incidental" A civilian board of inquiry which has been conducting an investigation into the causes of the recent riot at Houston, Tex., between members of the Twenty-fourth U. S. Infantry (colored) and white civilians, has concluded its work and submitted its report. Among other things the board finds that the soldiers had "planned a riot of bloodshed among the white residents of Houston two days before the deadly outbreak occurred," and while it is admitted that two brutal arrests of Negro soldiers on the part of the police precipitated the disturbance, it goes on to say that a serious disturbance was intended by some of the Negro soldiers before leaving Houston and the arrests simply brought it to a head sooner. The investigation does not give the brutal treatment of soldiers by Houston Policemen as a motive for the riot, but says these were only "incidental." Recommends Dismissal Of Police Chief The report finds that the Houston chief of police is incompetent and asks his removal. It could go further and ask the removal of most of the Houston Policemen for the same reason. Expecting the whole truth when the military authorities got ready to make public their report of the riot investigation the Houston civil board has furnished the city something with which to ease its conscience and absorb the shock that it has a right to expect. of the free, and home of the brave" and we further respectfully urge that you as President of these United States use your great influence that Congress enact the necessary laws to prevent a recurrence of such disgraceful affairs.

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1917. TWO OF OUR STRONG MEN HAVE FALLEN. The Afro-Amercan race is not so strong in suc- cessful men that one of them can fall by the way- side and not be missed. Other races, older in free- dom and opportunty, are not so poor. After awhile, with time and opportunity, we shall be richer in successful men than we now are. The time can-| not come too soon for the good of the race. The death of Philip A. Payton, Jr., in New York, is a great loss, because he was a natural real estate expert arid made a success of his business, after! Jong years of ups and downs. We remember well his first beginnings and struggles to make good; they were only such as every business man en- counters but which every business man does not. “overcome by sticking lo the last. Within the past year and just before his death he had closed a milton dollar dea} in tenement house property, mn the Harlem district, in New York City, and pur- chased him a country home at Allenhurst, N. J, for $20,000. And he was only forty-one ycars old when he died. It is not too much to say that other, real estate dealers of the race in the same section, of the country, because we have many successful one’s there, wil} take up work of doing business on @ colossal scale and go on with it, because, logically, there should always be at hand another genius to take up the work where it is laid down by a genius. | In the death of Harry S. Cummings of Baltimore tho race loses a good citizen, a clean man, who had made a success of his work in the practice of lat and of polities. In his way and in his place he was a strong man. Te did much to help give the race character and position in Baltimorey. where race, prejudice is so thick and dense that we have some- times thought it could not be ripped with a Damascus blade. Two useful men of the race have fallen by the way, and we shall miss them in the places where ‘they have labored. and the gencrous friendships that subsisted between us, but their good works, the example of their useful lives, will live and be an inspiration to others ‘of the race “who are climbing the rough sides of the mountain” and hoping against hope for success, which is always an elusive Jade. BILLIONS FOR THE WAR. A long time ago the good poet Cowper wrote these lines: “War’s a game which, were their sub- jects wise, kings would not play at.” “But their subjects have not learned anything from the ex- periences of the ages any more than the citizens of. republics and democracies. Disputes that should be settled in courts of arbitration are still settled on battlefields and on the high seas, with the added horrors of war in the air and under the waters, adding alike to the terrors of it all. It all shows that man is more of an animal than a human being made in the image of God, that he is more of a beast, when his passions are aroused, than a man made in the image of a human being. The Christian philosophy of the brotherhood of man is a long wey from being established, although the doctrine of international arbitration of dis- putes had a long and fair trial of discussion and in the establishment of the Hague Tribunal as the gourt of final resort; but kings like those of Ger- many and Austria, who regard treaties as “scrape of paper,” would not abide by the universal demand | for peaceable determination of international con- troversies, but must insist upon the brutal appeal to physical force. It should come true in their case that those who draw the sword should die by the sword, because they have bathed the world in blood in the past three years, destroying untold property and lives and burdening the future with taxation beyond the dreams of the statesmen of the past because of its vastness. The United States is not only preparing a million men to assist the Allies in conquering the German and Austrian kaisers and their dream of*universal empire, but it is helping Great Britain to finance the war and to furnish it with victuals and muni- tions. It is a big job, but the United States is a big and rich Nation. In keeping with its obliga- tions in this respect, and.in addition to the Liberty Loan of a billion dollars, the Congress has just authoried another loan of $11,538,945,460. These ‘are croesusic figures, but are made necessary by ‘our oblgations to the Allies and the fact that we shall soon have-a million soldiers and sailors in ‘camp and on the high seas. Let us all put our ‘hands to the task of doing our “bit,” as the English “say it, to win the victory and end the horrible war eeeies poskiblen ex oe THE JOURNAL AND GUIDE OUR WOMEN AND THE SOLDIERS. lawtinican pr . oc te a ee ge ae ee present war and in the Spanish American war, was caused by either women or whiskey Followed far enough in the wrong direction women and whiskey, both or either, wi!i make as much trouble for an individual or for a nation as Helen made for Greece and the ancient world, or Osceola’s wife, who was stolen from him at Micanopy by a white renegade, made for the United States in the long and des- parate Seminole war. | As far back.as we have the written record women and strong drink have made the most of the trouble for men and nations, Hardly a na- tion’s history but tells the same story of riot and confusion because of one or the other provoking causes, and most frequently of the two combined. Woman's weakness is inherent in her, as the weak- er member, a part of her loving and confiding na- ture, which trusts the man in his greater inherited strength, only to find too often that’ he is not strong at all in character as a man but as a serpent strong to persuade, deceive, abuse. and desert in the hour of peril and disaster. Man, naturally strong, seeks weakness in strong drink, which gives him courage to do the’beastly things he would disdain to do when sober. | As a result of the clash of our soldiers and the ‘police at Houston, Texas, because of rough treat- iment of oneof our women by the police, the | wenty-fourth Infantry, one of the best regiments. inthe army, has been exiled to the Philippine Islands during the life of the present war, and| ‘because of the clash at*Waco, Texas, duly 29, five’ ‘of the soldiers will have to serve five years at hard labor in the Federal prison at Leavenworth, Kan | as, the sixth man receiving ten years. They were jfound guilty of violating the ninety-third article jof War, before a general court martial, at Camp, , MacArthur. The exile of the whole regiment to , the Philippines, where they will be inactive during’ .the life of the war, is a terrible punishment for soldiers, who delight in action and not in inaction. | Our esteemed contemporary, the Philadelphia | Tribune, in discussing this soldier and women busi ness, in an exhaustive article, says: 1 No matter what criticism may eowe upon the sold- irs who started a riot in Houston, one thing has, been demonstrated, we think, that is commendable. ‘The colored mat of the 2ith that protested asainst unnceessary brutality toward a woman of our race showed a new spirit that is spreading over the country, A race cannot rise higher than its womanhood and it is a healthy sizn of progress and development of higher manhood when we refuse to stand for the hu- miliatinj, insulting: and prostitutimg of our women. God conferred upon woman the hichest honor of the human rave, the perpetuation and training of ils pros- eny. Even the lower animals will fight to the death to protect the female and off-spring of the species. Our women have been the tarxet of the Southern whites for centuries, and we men have stood for much of it, even in the Northern States they get seant cour- | tesy and we protest but mildly. ‘The worm has turned at lost, and owe men have made up their minds to protect theit women and their children at any cost, Our women are as good as any women in the world.” Let us hope that the worm has turned. He has been a long time in Lurning, and we have much! doubt that he has done so entirely as yet, or that he will do so until he respects is women himself, more than he does and has done in the past. We undertook to show this to be the case in a series of articles on sovial evils last. Spring, and we have Seen little since to change the views we then ex- Pressed, but rather much to confirm them. Let us begin at home, and in our own social relations, to treat our women decently, in conversation and. actions, and not leave it to be done by our rough soldiers, few of whom are any: better than they Should be, and our immoral women who haunt oldier camps and have no virtue to protect because they were weak enough to fling it to the winds. White men, soldiers and civilians, will respect our women and us more wher we learn to respect. them and ourselves more. The tendency to looseness among our younger people in morals and conversa- | tion and public display of the same is so pronounc- « Land grave that we should be recreant to our duty as a public teacher if we did not rebuke it in this F and as often as occasion requires it. | A NEW SORT OF NEGRO REGIMENT | It has ben announced from Washington that the War Department has authorized the recruiting of a regiment of 2400 Negroes for foreign service, to meet the demand for experienced men to. handle It has ben announced from Washington that the War Department has authorized the recruiting of a regiment of 2400 Negroes for foreign service, to meet the demand for experienced men to. handle war supplies for the American expeditionary force, in France. Recruiting officers, especially those in Southern seaport cities, have been instructed to seek men for the regiment. An effort will be made to get exemption from draft of Negroes who would prefer hard work behind the lines to duty in the trenches. We are glad the Stevedore Regiment of Negroes, as they call it, has been authorized. The thing is to get into the army in any honorable way. After getting in our men have always made a good re- cord, valuable in the next advance. in breaking down race prejudice in the army. AN EDITOR EMBARRASSED.

Lay attur day settles its personnel, and the henors have fallen to John next door, to Emily's son and to one’s own son. Six weeks ago the announcement that a new Woman's Bureau had been created by the American Red Cross to help women to give their services wise- ly to the army and- navy, was an announcement that was only half real, like our notions of the National Army. Six weeks later it can be thought of in a new and intimate relation to the lives of American women. For under its direction already upwards of half a million women, thinking of Jack and ‘Tom and William, have begun to knit and to plan their hours of work in the fall so that there shall be no lack when Major Grayson M. P. Murphy, head of the Red Cross Commission in France,, cables for hospital garments and for comfort bags. When Miss Florence Marshall, form- er principal of the Manhattan Trade School, and a member of the United States Commission ou Federal Aid to Vocational Education, took up the work in her office in Washington, as Director of the Woman's Bureau of the American Red Gross the first week in July, three tasks confronted her. And the first of these was “knitting.” | It was up to her to consult with all the authorities here and abroad on what to knit and how lo knit it, if ‘thousands of American boys and French civilians were not to suffer feom the cold this winter, The knit- ting experts of the women’s mag- azines, some of the manufacturers of machine-made goods, many women who had experience both in the Navy League and the Red Cross during the last three years, knitting for the sold- ers abroad, gave the sum of their experience. Eight standardized arti- eles were selected for the women of Amerien to make. Every soldier who ‘suffers the winter weather of France ‘or of the northeran cantonments should have the first four of these— knitted wristlers, sleeveless sweater, mulfler and socks. Aviators and ambu- lance drivers—all who work in the open should have knitted helmets with pull down over the head und leave it small space for the eyes and nose. Many men wilt need hospital bed socks made without heel. There is a call for knitted wash cloths and for covers to hot water bottles, mnde vither in wool or in cotton. When Miss Marshall yd the Na- tional Ggmmitice who assist her had decided “that these articles fitted the needs of the Army and Navy, and had been passed on by Major Murphy, head of the American Red. Cross Commis- sion in France, they published a cir- ‘cular containing pictures of perfectly made garments with complete instruc~ tidns as to how to knit, and the kind of needles and yarn to use, and where to procure these. ‘This circular can be obtained by any woman who wants ‘to help by applying to the nearest Red Cross chapter. | From:the nearest Red Cross chapter she will also learn how to get her yarn. The National Red Cross organ- ization is divided into thirteen divis- ions. Every one of the thirteen divis- ions has a supply department which ‘controls its share in the 1,100,000 pounds of’ wool purchased by the Red Cross, The woolen yarn is all of one grade. When Miss Marshall had pass- ed on the kind of yearn that was want- ed, the Bureau of Standards of the purchasing department of the Red Cross, took up the business of secing that no yarn below that standard found its way into the Red Cross re- serve. This reserve has been provid- ed so that in cases where the wool described in the knitting circular is not available ‘at local retail stores, any woman can obtain yarn to work with toa her Red Cross chapter. It has been arranged that knitted garments when completed’ should be turned over to the chapters, and by the chapter authorities shipped to points designated by those who have the shipment of supplies in hand na- ionality. They will go to the nearest port and be sent promptly to France. All the officers abroad as well as Major Murphy of the Red Cross Com- mission, are asking, anxiously from HEALTH TALKS PREVENTIVE ‘and REMEDIAL MEASURES for the CONSERVATION of HEALTH By DR. J. W. PIERCE: “Good morning Mrs.—! How are you? “Well I thanks.” “How is the family?” “All are well except Viola. She seems to be, ailing of late.” "What are you doing for her?” “Oh! |! gave her first one thing and then another.” |_ These are the remarks that passed between two persons in observing’ a |morning salutation. The inquiry. of the health of one member of the family brought forth a frank confession that Viola was complaining and that “first one thing and then anther” was being used to give relief and restora- tion of health. This is indeed very significant. This colloquy is typical of 8 great many cases of this nature, and shows to what a degree people will carry their home remedies in cases of Jong complaint. This temporizings with “first one thine and then anoth- er,” may mean 2 shocking experience to those who are interested in Viola. No doubt they are honest und con- scientious in their devotion toward this complaintant, but the reasonable thins: to be done, has not been attempted, If the proper procedure is undertaken, probably this person mays still have chance to enjoy normal! health asain. T€ noxlected, the chances are 10 to 1 in favor of abnomuality in health, if she continues to revvive “first. one thing and then another.” | Home remedies are not to he dis- carded by any means. They have their rightful place in treating eortain ailments, but cannot, be relied upon for a continued ailment without any ‘taps. These are for men with wounded arms and shoul whieh must be dressed from time to time without ‘moving their suffering bodies. J Garments by the million and the half million! ‘These are numbers that seem unreal and beyond the making, but they ure the figures that are the Jemblem of our times, The making of ‘these millions of garments is a mian- ufaeturing job of scigantic proportions, but there are millions of women to do it, Last January there were 275,000 members of the Red Gross. Today there are nearly 3,000,000, and there must be no question of doubting that number to complete the work that is before the women of the country. | A committee workin with Miss ‘Marshall under Miss Anita Earl, head of the dressmaking department of Teachers’ Colleve, New York, have de- ‘cided upon the hospital garments to fhe used as models. The great pattern companies of the United States joined to form a Red Cross committee. Cer- ti Red Cross: paterns will be avail- ‘able in every part of the country. All ‘these patterns will describe precisely ‘the kind of material of which these ‘garments must be made. As soon as a cixevlar similar to the one on knit- ting can be published it will be avail- able at every Red Cross chapter. | All reads for the patriotic American, woman lead to the Red Cross chapter. She can find by writing or calling there what piece of work needs most urgent~ ly to bedone. It is Lhrough the chap- tors that the certified instructors on rea dressings will conduct their classes. The latest work of the Wom- /an's Bureau concerns Christmas. Not a soldier or sailor in the National ‘Army or Navy, either inf the trenches abroad ‘or the cantonments here at home, is to be without his share of Red Cross Christmas cheer. in Defense of Mr. Chas. S. Carter. Editor of Journal and Guide; . Dear Sir:—I wish to make the fol- lowing statement in-reference to the embarrassing position that Mr. Car- ter was. place ty by attempting to befriend a fried, who was in trouble in a strange city. I happened to be in company with Mr. Carter and sev- eral Norfolk gentlemen, in Philadel- phia on Monday night, Aug. 27th. We were standing in front of Green's Hotel on 17th St., where Dr. Francis, in a very excited manner, appealed to Mr. Carter to assist him in locating his ear which had just been. stolen from him in front of Green's Hotel. Mr. Garter, on hearing of Dr. Francis loss, at once busied himbelf in trying to locate the car, He left the party that he was with and found a person whom he thought would be able to find out something about the car. Event- ually the car was found but the thieves wanted a $50.00 ransom for thé car. Dr. Francis offered a check for $50.- 00 which was not accepted by the per- son who stole the car, but Mr. Carter's check was readily: accepted, he being eS Mees See at aoa PE te iain 2, ee : (oe P By GUESS TREATMENT.

If the proper number is cast, you can win; if wrong points turn up, you lose. Raffling with “frst one thing and then another” is the game against health and its ‘ conservation, It is against one’s interest ‘in’ other relations, and very expensive; ‘there is much pain and long suffering to no effect; there are blighted hopes and complete resignation to the beckoning hand of the inevitable, because there is a continued clinging to the “frst one thing and then another,” sug- gested by some one who feels that he or she knows the case and knows what is best for it, No more serious mistake can bhy made as to trifle with « continued ail- mont, treating it by guess work with- out any definite knowledge - as to cause, and what the complaint signi- fics. One's health, means too much to sive it such slight attention in the wake of an jmpending disease which may sooner or Inter terminate in that stare of ineurability.

E., of the above named District convened the conference at Savageville, Va., on schedule time. After devotional services conducted by Revs. W. J. Beckett and A. J. Nottingham, D. D., the P. E., assisted by Rev. S. S. Morris, D. D., and others, consecrated the elements of the Lord's Supper and distributed them. It was a spiritual feast. Rev. J. H. A. Martin, D. D., was elected Secretary; Rev. A. R. Montague, Assistant; and David A. Wilson, Reporter. Each submitted splendid reports. The small charges were at their best. Each pastor answered roll call.. $96.00 was raised. Rev. A. R. Montague preached the Annual sermon, Rev. J. W. Harmon, the Missionary and A. J. Nottingham, D. D., the special sermon. Some splendid papers were read by Drs. D. W. Baker and Morris. The Reporter also read a paper. It was said the three papers were good and showed a deal of research. Among the distinguished visitors were, Prof. S. H. Long, Rev. E. T. Atkins, B. D., and his wife all three of Maryland. Mrs. Adkins, who is a sweet singer, rendered a beautiful solo, and sang in the choir. It was a harmonious session and the P. E., was well pleased with the progress made in District during the year. Too much cannot be said in praise of the entertainment we received by the pastor and good people of Savageville. At each meal, we had more food than we could eat. The Conference will be held there again soon. D. A. WILSON, Reporter. ST. JOHN'S A. M. E. CHURCH. Services last Sunday were quite interesting and spirited. The pastor preached morning and evening and quite a number of subscriptions on the November rally were received. In the Sunday School it was Temperance Sunday and Temperance music and tracts were used. The attendance of the orchestra was large and the selections rendered were very inspiring. Next Sunday will be Educational Day and contributions will be received for the educational work of the church. The pastor will fill the pulpit at the morning hour and at night a special program will be presented by the Sunday School. On Sunday the 23rd, at 11 A. M. Bishop J. Albert Johnson will preach. Rev. R. A. Adams of Kansas City, Kansas an evangelist of wide reputation and splendid attainments will conduct the revival services during the month of October. Dr. Adams has conducted successful revivals in a number of places and comes well recommended by several of our bishops, presiding elders and pastors as well as others engaged in church work. Prof. Braye is rehearsing a large chorus to assist in the services and preparatory work along other lines is now under way. SUCCESSFUL REVIVAL. A most successful revival has been in progress at the First Baptist Church of Taylorsville, Va., of which Rev. W. H. Massenburg is pastor. The Lord has blessed us with 32 conversions, and about 15 to join by Christian experience. Our baptizing will take place at the Ebenezer Baptist Church, Effingham and Columbia Streets, Portsmouth of which Dr. C. C. Somerville is pastor, at 2:30 p. m., Sept. 16th. The public is cordially invited. REV. W. H. MASSENBURGH Pastor. JOHN BROWN A. M. E. CHURCH. Last Sunday was Temperance Sunday. Though gloomy we had a cheerful congregation all day. At 11 A. M. Rev. Hatcher preached on "What Is Worldiness" Rom. 12:2. We were made to see that worldliness does not consist in outward nets but is certain temper of mind. Here is a sentence: If it is worldly to play cards, dance, go to the movies etc., it is worldly even under the name of religion to go to club and gossip on scandal, to attend the conventions just to work politics, to pay $1.00 for a pair of hose and put a penny in for missions. It may be worldly to go in swimming on Sunday but it is criminal to bow at the same NO MONEY NEEDED This suit is yours without a money's worth, as usual in postal or letter today.

Willis filled the pulpit at Second Calvary Baptist Church last Sunday. He also taught the pastor's class in Sunday School. At four o'clock the Lord's Supper was administered. Three persons received the Hand of Fellowship. The meeting of the B. Y. P. U. was not held last Sunday, owing to the lateness of the afternoon service. At night Rev. Willis preached another able sermon. Services at night begin at 7:30 instead of eight as during the summer months. The funeral of Mr. Samuel Brown was held at this church preached by Rev.

One of the secondary schools in the State of Virginia that is suing for a first place among Negro Educational activities, and is destined to rank among the best of such institutions is Dinwiddie Normal and Industrial School located at Dinwiddie, Va., on the Seaboard Air Line R. R. just 15 miles south of Petersburg. The school was founded in 1898 by some white men for the training of colored youth. Later, Mr. Alexander Van Rensselaer of Philadelphia took hold of it and developed it to a high degree of efficiency. In 1908 he conveyed the whole plant (250) acres to the Board of Education of the A. M. E. Zion Church. The session which closed last May sent out six graduates and is said to have been the most successful in several years. There was a larger attendance than usual and more interest shown by the colored people than ever before. This perhaps is accounted for from the fact that Bishop G. L. Blackwell of Philadelphia had been made' the president of the Board of Trustees and put the force of his personality and office behind the most capable Principal, W. E. Woodyard. The teaching force has been strengthened, three of the teachers being graduates respectively of Fiske, Lincoln and Howard Universities. Bishop Blackwell with the assistance of Bishop J. S. Caldwell has just closed an educational campaign for the school which resulted in $5200.00. This amount together with other sources of income, has put the school in first class condition. All the old bills have been paid off and the salaries of the teachers guaranteed. During the summer vacation the buildings have been overhauled, the boys' dormitory enlarged, the reservoir put in first class condition, the grounds cleaned up and the whole plant made perfectly sanitary. Principal Woodyard reports that he has on hand from the farm 100 quarts of gunned beans, 13 quarts of berries, 65 quarts of apples, 35 quarts of tomatoes, and that he has 15 bushels of white potatoes, with a late crop yet to dig, 40 bushels of sweet potatoes, 2000 heads of cabbage, a nice lot of rape kale, peas, turnips, tavy beans, butter beans, 40 bushels of wheat, 11 boys to kill 12 small pigs, quite a few chickens and plenty feed for horses and cattle The school is in first class condition and offers comfortable rooms, fine table board, efficient training and good discipline. Entrance fee $5.00; board; tuition and room rent per month $8.00 for grills; $9.00 for boys. The forth coming session opens Oct. 3, and the largest number in the history of the school is expected. The graduates from the Normal department receive from State Superintendent of Education Certificates to teach within the State of Virginia without further examinations. Aside from literary training, the school teaches music, stenography, bookkeeping, domestic science, sewing, carpentry, blacksmithing, poultry, pig and stock raising and agriculture.

Commissioner Kainer is mailing out the Department's September bulletin to all farmers whose names are on the Department's mailing list. Every farmer should read these helpful bulletins. There is much valuable information in the September bulletin which will enable the farmer to save money in the marketing of his crop: The marketing of the wheat crop is especially discussed in this bulletin; also important information on the production and marketing of the peanut crop, information as to the size and probable market of the apple crop, discussion about wire grass, more information regarding the Farm Loan act, the use of raw phosphate rock, and market work in general. These bulletins are sent free of cost every month to all farmers who desire them. The information contained is practical and valuable to farmers in their daily work. TITUS TOWN. Services at Mt. Pleasant were well attended last Sunday. Rev. S. L. Brown preached an able sermon at the morning service, subject "Preparation." Rev. L. T.
