NO.46 Various Sides Express Opinions—All of Them Vary NEW YORK, Feb. 1.—Here is what will happen when the country dries up next July, according to opinions of brewers, anti-saloonists and financiers, expressed today: First—Breweries will be junked; millions of workers will be thrown out of employment and billions invested in properties lost. Second—Taxes will mount to the skies and stay there. This is the belief of Christian Feigenspan, president of the United Brewers' Association, and William J. Vance, its secretary. Third—There will be no economic disturbance. Fourth—Taxes will not mount high. Fifth—Breweries will begin to grind out malted milk, cider, grape juice, potter yand what-nots, therefore employing all hands. This is the conviction of William H. Anderson, New York State superintendent of the Anti-Saloon league. Sixth—There will be more money in the banks. Seventh—There will be more homes. Eighth—Crime and insanity will vanish. This is the opinion of Thomas Cochran of J. P. Morgan & Co. and Cornelius N. Bliss, Jr., president of the Association for the Improvement of Condition of the Poor. WINSLOW (By Mrs. M. N. Young) Mrs. Willhite returned Friday morning from points in East Texas, where she has been visiting relatives and friends. Mr. Willhite says: "No more lonely hours for me now." He's all smiles. Mrs. Ed Simpson served a delightful luncheon at her home last Sunday in honor of Mrs. Maynard and daughter. Mr. Carl E. Bloice has been confined to his home the past week suffering with a broken finger. Mrs. Norman Yeager entertained at 6 o'clock dinner last Sunday evening. The guest list included Mr. Lucas, Mr. Creole, Mr. and Mrs. Jones, Mr. and Mrs. Maynard and daughter. Mr. Hartman thinks she has been suffering from a case of the flu. We are pleased to report her condition as improved. Miss Cleo Wilson, one of Winslow's most charming young ladies, has been practicing domestic science during the illness of her mother and has decided that she does not care for it, only in cases of emergency. Mrs. M. N. Young entertained last Tuesday evening with a sumptuous repast. The guests were Mr. and Mrs. T. J. McCool, Mrs. T. R. Simpson, Mr. and Mrs. R. R. W. Strode, Mr. and Mrs. Ed Simpson, Miss Willie Wilson. All report and enjoyable evening. Carrying water is the latest fad in Winslow. During the cold weather the pipes have been frozen for a solid month. BISBEE (By Myrtle Threat) Judge J. W. Ross (white) met the Tribune representative on the street and paid for a subscription to the Tribune to be sent him. This shows that he is a friend to the race and we should show our appreciation by patronizing him when in need of legal services. Judge Ross has always been a staunch friend of the colored people. We assure him that this friendliness has been and is now highly appreciated by us. Mr. Hamilton, a stranger in the city, learned that a cooled paper was being circulated in this district and he sought out the representative and paid for a subscription to this race paper. This goes to prove that there are members of our race who are willing to support worthy efforts among us and also that they are interested in what the race is doing elsewhere. Mr. Forest Patton will leave our Mr. Ernest Patton will leave our city this week for Douglas. Mrs. T. E. Garden is a visitor in our city this week. She comes from Fort Hauchuca. Mr. James Scott, son of Chaplain Scott in Fort Hauchuca, came here to attend school with his sister, Ruth Scott. Mrs. Charlie Worsham is confined to her home suffering with the flu. We hope for her a speedy recovery. Mr. J. H. Bryant, who was convalescing from the flu, suffered a relapse. It is said that he ventured out too soon. Three automobile loads of people went to Douglas last week to attend a big dance given in that city. They report an enjoyable time. Mrs. Watlow is reported seriously ill. We trust, however, that her ill-ness will not prove fatal. RAY (By Archie Lewis) RAY Mr. and Mrs. Judge Miller, old-time residents of Ray, have bought a home in Flagstaff. They will leave soon for their new home among the pines. Mose Davis is now residing at Sunny Side. He was the first one to move to the new colored town. Mrs. Lewis Hudson left Ray a few days ago to visit relatives in Phoenix. James, Coleman is now working at the Ray Con. Hospital. J. J. McDonald received a letter last week from Frank Clark, who is with the American forces in France. Corporal Clark states that he is fine and dandy, only a little lonesome for news from Arizona. He requests that all his friends write him a letter or just send a card. He says that a letter from the states is more welcome than pay day. Frank says that he can keep a letter, once he receives it, but it is almost impossible for him to keep any money. He goes on to state several reasons why he cannot keep any money, and one of them is his great fondness for a little game called "crap." YUMA-SOMERTON (By Mrs. E. E. Rainwater) Mr. and Mrs. Young Pong are the house guests of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas D. Shelton on Maiden Lane. Miss Hallie A. Martin of Clifton and Mr. Felix McCrory of Yuma surprised their friends last Thursday by being quietly married. Miss Martin is one of Arizona's most accomplished young ladies. She was the first colored teachers in Clifton. She finished the high school course at Clifton, attend, ed Western University at Quindario, Kan., and returned to Arizona and began teaching in the school at Clifton. The groom, a worthy young man, is deserving of the highest compliment, having spent five years in the employ of the S. P. railway as baggage master. The couple will leave Thursday, February 6th, for a short visit with the bride's parents in Clifton and will be at home to their friends after February 22d at 456 Main street. Mrs. O. J. Stafford, our fashionable dressmaker, suffered an attack of flu. She is reported much improved and well on the road to recovery. Lampasas, Tex. (By Parlea Spriggs) The bundle of papers you sent last week did not last long enough for me to say that I was handling a colored newspaper. Listen! I want the exclusive agency for the Phoenix Tribune in this city. Why, they sell like 'hot cakes.' All who have read the Tribune want another copy. They can hardly wait for their arrival. Enclosed find money order for the bunch you sent, and next week send a double quantity. Sir C. E. W. Day, chief grand mentor, Knights and Daughters of Tabor and Sisters of the Mysterious Ten, spent a few days in our city the guest of Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Doolittle. He enjoyed a very pleasant stay in our city and we invite him to come again. MESA (By S. L. Daniels) The many friends of Mrs. Lon Wilson will be pleased to learn of her complete recovery from a recent illness. Mr. John Lee, who was reported ill last week, is out again. Recent arrivals in Mesa last week were: Messrs. C. B. Bobo of Phoenix, and Frank Seals of San Diego, Cal. Mr. Bobo may be found at the Mesa City Garage, and Mr. Seals has ac- ARIZONA'S GREATEST WEEKLY PHOENIX, ARIZONA, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1919 cepted a position at the E. Evans school, two miles southeast of Mesa. Mrs. S. D. Wilson and little son have returned to Mesa. Mr. Red Lackey was a business visitor in the city last Friday. He reports the cotton harvest nearly over out his way. Mesa, Gem City of the Salt River Valley, has again taken on a gay aspect since the lifting of the flu ban. Everything and everybody seem happy now. Mrs. Judge Taylor Praises Mesa and The Phoenix Tribune To the Editor of the Tribune: My husband and I have been reading your very interesting little paper for some time, having subscribed for it through Mr. Daniels of this city, and we think it is just grand. We have been in Mesa just two months, and we like it very much. We are glad to see the black man's privileges are not denied him here as in many of the southern states and if he will, he can make good out here. Since our arrival in Mesa we have made quite a few acquaintances among our colored people. There are many who own their homes. There are Mr. and Mrs. Moore, Mr. and Mrs. Jenkins, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Lewis, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Hudson and Mr. Chester, a prosperous and industrious young man, and many others. To prove that we colored people in the midst of these great privileges have not forgotten our Creator, will say that we are having Sunday school every Sunday morning and preaching every Sunday evening. All services are well attended, and on last Sunday we had three additions to the Sunday school. Rev. C. A. Gilmore, our able pastor, has the uplift of the people of Mesa at heart. May God bless him and speed him on. MRS. S. M. TAYLOR. The entertainment given at the residence of Mrs. J. T. Turner last Wednesday night was a great success. The proceeds will go for the benefit of Mt. Calvary Baptist church. A large crowd attended the entertainment and all report an enjoyable time. Mesa now boasts of two more fine young men besides those already in the city. They are Messrs. Lonnie and Alvie Taylor, sons of Mr. and Mrs. Judge Taylor, recent arrivals from Berwyn, Okla. Mr. Taylor, Sr., has purchased some nice lots on East Hobson street and the family will make this their permanent home. Miss Clara Moore and Mr. Chester Morris were united in the holy bonds of matrimony last week at the home of the bride's parents. We trust they will experience no rough sailing upon the beautiful sea of matrimony. Their many friends extend congratulations and best wishes for a happy married life. Mr. Wallace, one of our prominent citizens and a member of Mt. Calvary Baptist church, has been confined to his home the past few days suffering with a severe case of hiccoughs. Mr. Jenkins is erecting a nice little tent house on the lot which he purchased a few months ago. Mrs. Judge Taylor is elated over a letter received from her sister at Berwyn, Okla., stating that she and her husband are thinking seriously of coming to Arizona to live. Arizona is certainly a good place to live and they will make no mistake by coming here. Rev. Bentley, formerly of Tulsa, Okla., but now a resident of Phoenix, is picking cotton in this section. He has accumulated a neat little roll of bills as a result of this diversion. The two older girls of Mr. and Mrs. Judge Taylor, Misses Helen and Joanna Taylor, started to school last week. Miss Helen is attending the grammar school in the eastern part of town. The elder son of Mr. and Mrs. Taylor is very apt in the auto repair business and is employed at one of the garages here. Lonnie is making a record for himself here. Miss Lucy McPherson and sister, Susie, spent a pleasant evening the guests of the Misses Taylor. Music on the Victrola was a feature of the evening and all had a delightful time. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Lewis and little daughter are doing nicely. The little girl is growing rapidly and is the pride of her parents. She is their first and only child. Mr. and Mrs. Henry Lewis are expecting the arrival of Mrs. Lewis' father in a few days. The two main ingredients in the manufacture of linoleum are cork and linseed oil, to which are added smaller quantities of kaurl gum, resin and pigments of various kinds. PLURIBUS UNUM NA'S GREATEST W IZONA, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 8, EL PASO (By William Green) Last Sunday the services at Mt. Zion Baptist church were well attend. ed. Mr. John J. Stevens opened Sunday school promptly at 9:30 a. m., and there was a good attendance. Misses Pearl and Loise Shannon and Mrs. Nauera have returned from a pleasant trip to Luling and San Antonio, Texas. Some preachers in El Paso always have their feelings on the floor during services. And these preachers are not always the pastors of the churches, either. They will kick at a gnat. Ministers in El Paso will phone each other, but will not visit. I refer to the Baptist ministers. The Methodist ministers are friendly and visit quite frequently. Mrs. A. James has returned from Dallas, Texas, where she attended the convention held in that city. When visiting Mt. Zion, ask for the social committee. The members of this committee are. Mesdames H. D. Jackson, L. A. Turner, L. Williams, A. G. Foster. Mrs. F. Ellison is on the sick list. IMPERIAL, GAL. Mrs. Judge Taylor praises Mesa an Influenza has been raging in this section and the reporter has not been permitted to go here and there to get the news. It struck the family of the Tribune representative also and that made it absolutely impossible for me to go out. Conditions are about settled now and real honest-to-goodness work in the interest of the Tribune will begin. Many have signified their intention of taking out subscriptions and I shall soon go after them. The papers sent were rapidly disposed of, and just as soon as I am permitted to go out, watch subscriptions pour in from Imperial and our news columns jump to first place. FLAGSTAFF (By Reginald Jackson) In spite of the 24 inches of snow in Flagstaff, there was a large crowd out to Sunday school last Sunday. The teacher ably explained the lesson and we surely benefited by it. Rev. Z. Z. Johnson, presiding elder of the C. M. E. church, was again in our city last week. He received Mr. M. E. Sheppard into the ministry as field missionary. He was assigned to the district of New Mexico and Texas. Rev. Johnson preached a short ser- mon to the members of St. John Baptist church which was greatly enjoyed by all. We invite him to come again. DOUGLAS (By G. R. Kirby) Mrs. Loella Harris has been very ill the past week. Her husband, who is with the headquarters troop, Tenth Cavalry, stationed at Fort Hauchuca, was called to her side. She has recovered sufficiently for him to return to his post. Mrs. Burnside, 936 Eleventh street, is very ill with pneumonia. Her mother was called to her bedside. Rev. Edward Jones is very ill with la grippe. Little Dorothy Jones is recovering from a slight operation which she underwent a few days ago. Mrs. Emma Mallory of 1048 Tenth street has been down with the flu. Mrs. L. B. Hamilton of Pirtleville is convalescing from an attack of acute indigestion. English kings once forbade coal to be burnt on account of the smoke and a belief that coal fires were unhealthful. GIVE THAT OTHERS MAY LIVE FEBRUARY 10-17th TRIBUNE ```markdown ``` (By S. E. Newell) A splendid dinner party was given at the country home of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Alvers on Thursday evening, January 23. This affair was given in honor of Mr. Tom Hall. The guests were: Mr. Hall and wife, Mr. and Mrs. Mike Rivers, Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Hosten, Miss Alice Mackey and Rev. S. E. Newall. Indeed, there was much joy spread on this occasion. The dinner was well cooked and seasoned to a queen's taste. The guests were conveyed to and from the party in Mr. Hall's big Jeffrey Six, and in Mr. Hosten's "fliver." Mr. Alvers ranch, which is situated 5 miles southeast of Tucson, is one of the most beautiful plots of land in Pima county. COTTON STATES MUST HAVE SOME PATIENCE WASHINGTON.—Replying to a request from members of congress from cottin growing states that all embargoes on cotton exports to non-enemy countries be lifted and that shipments to Germany and Austria be permitted as soon as possible, President Wilson today cabled Senator Smith of South Carolina that cotton in amounts adequate to their needs, and that further exports to enemy countries raised important questions of policy which were subjects of attentive consideration by the associated governments. The Negro Mighty Important Look here, child, what is the matter? Your head bowed and drooping down. It seems to me you are sadder than I ever, ever found. What you say? It surely can't be, you are worried over that. You should always be so cheery, 'though your face is black. When you've lived as long as your forerunners foreparents, In the land that's smooth and rough You will find what's called a Negro Certainly is important Stuff. Ever since the time of Noah We've been heard of in this land, For they say that our ancestors Are the mighty sons of Ham. Up and down this whole creation, Over ocean, sea and land, You will find our white relation Talking about the Negro man. He's discussed within the White House. He's denied even civil rights, Yet the War.Lords of this country Needed him in all their fights. Like the whites, he has found the hen- house When the moon has hid its face, And the stars up in the heavens Seem to have forgot their place. More than fifty years we've traveled, Naught to help us on the road, Many loved ones from us parted, Burdened with the heavy load. But today the picture changes, We have money, land and home, You can only tell our ranges By the depths from which we came. Some have gone when they were able "Mongst the very high 'ascent, Some have sat right at the table Of our greatest President. They have said he's low and worth- less. Has no thought of right or wrong; Since he passed up San Juan High ness They are singing a different song. He has always served his country Both in peace and battle strife, And today across the waters He is offering up his life. He has never proved a traitor, To Old Glory he's been true, Love, protect and defend her, It's the right for him to do. So, my child, don't you ever Let me see you drooping 'round, 'Though your face is black and shin ing And your hair seems upside down. If you look where you wander, Be it far or near you roam, You will find what you call Negro In the white folks mind or home. —Miss Myrtle Ross. Chandler, Arizona.

The biggest word in the dictionary and resonant on the lips of man at this period of the world's history is PEACE. Monday, November 11, was a memorable day in the lives of millions. The clash of swords had ceased upon the battlefields of Europe and the warriors had stacked arms. Rejoicing millions made noisy acclaim, and possibly the most universally celebrated event was made glorious as Liberty Day throughout the world. The awful struggle of toil and travail is history now. The past is written in our souls, and is only recognized by the many lessons we have learned individually and nationally. Equally as serious and as greatly important is the future, with problems to be solved and the signs of the times to be interpreted. But what is the peace of which we speak? What will it mean to the people of the earth, particularly those who made the supreme sacrifice? "Making the world safe for Democracy" means what? Will the world be a better place in which to live? These are the questions engaging the attention of all people affected by the recent upheaval. The Peace Conference soon to be held will probably remake Europe geographically—territory will be taken from one nation and given to another; the price of destruction will be estimated, and the responsibility fixed, treaties will be written and signed; and in the midst of it all, man's inhumanity to man will be the reflection when the delegates look backward and world democracy the panacea for every ill the thought as these men at the peace table look forward. And then adjournment. AND WILL THERE BE PEACE THEN? There can be no peace as long as a consciousness of unjust treatment finds place in the souls of men. There can be no peace so long as justifiable protest may find utterance; there can be no peace as long as the Golden Rule is nullified by men in power, and the religion of the Prince of Peace interpreted and applied as a religion of race or nationality, of class or condition. Verily, peace treaties are mere scraps of paper, and constitutions are less than jokes unless they apply to ALL MEN and guarantee to them an equal chance to live and to exercise their God-given rights. What part has the black man in this drama now being enacted? He has played a great part in the scenes of warfare and carnage, and here at home his sacrifice has been the noblest and the best. The stage is still set, the scenes still pass, but ere long the curtain must fall, the play must end and the characters receive their reward. What will the Colored man get? Will peace mean anything to him? Not unless it means the same thing it means for other men; not unless it is COLORLESS and RACELESS—satisfying and justifying. The light of the Christmastide is tingeing the skies, the star of Bethlehem is rising, and in the distance we hear the approach of the angelic throng proclaiming the birth of the Prince of Peace. Millions look and listen. They hear the chorus: "Peace on earth and good-will to men." And yet millions wonder what it all means; countless numbers have never been able to find this "peace on earth" and this "good will" among men.

Following his address, the nations voted unanimously for a League of Nations, the purpose of which is to prevent recurrence of wars and their horrors. Before President Wilson left for Europe he had allowed partisan politics to impair his vision. Undeniably he had lost, or was losing, the confidence of a large percentage of the American people. But the speech at Paris will do much to re-establish him in the high regard entertained for him during the war period by nearly all of the people of the nation, regardless of political affiliations. Throughout the address the president was cautious not to convey the thought that what may be done at Paris will be faultless. He recognized that many blunders are likely to occur, which will have to be corrected in the practical application of the league's work. He said with great solemnity: "We are assembled under very peculiar conditions of world opinion. I may say, without straining the point, that we are not the representatives of governments, but representatives of the people." In this same connection: "The burdens of this war have fallen in an unusual degree upon the whole population of the countries involved. I do not need to draw for you the picture of how the burden has been thrown back from the front upon the older men, upon the women, upon the children, upon the homes of the civilized world, and how the real strain of the war has come where the eye of the government could not reach but where the heart of humanity beats. "We are bidden by these people to make a peace which will make them secured. We are bidden by these people to see to it that this strain does not come upon them again. And I venture to say that it has been possible for them to bear this strain because they hoped that those who represented them could get together after this war and make such another sacrifice unnecessary."

Settlements may be temporary, but the action of the nations in the interest of peace and justice must be permanent. We can set up permanent processes. We may not be able to set up a permanent decision." In conclusion, the president pointed out that the United States is peculiarly free from the danger of invasion, that our soldiers largely entered the war in the spirit of crusaders, and that his visit to Europe is largely in the spirit of a crusader, whose object is rescue of mankind from the horrors of war. Here is another thought which should be burnt into every mind at home and abroad: "Gentlemen, the select classes of mankind are no longer the governors of mankind. The fortunes of mankind now are in the hands of the plain people of the whole world. Satisfy them, and you have justified their confidence not only but have established peace. Fail to satisfy them, and no arrangements that you can make will either set up or steady the peace of the world." That all efforts to establish a League of Nations for preservation of peace have failed in the past, we may readily admit. But that is no reason that such league may not succeed now. That it will be an imperfect and unsatisfactory league at the beginning, we may well assume. But, as President Wilson says, it can correct its defects as experience may dictate.—Ex. FATAL CUTTING AFFRAY OVER GAME OF CARDS KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Feb. 3.—The result of a dispute over the small sum of 20 cents, the sequel of a card game at the home of Bettie Pickle, corner University avenue and Boyd street, on last Saturday night at 10:30 o'clock, Will Edmondson was stabbed to the heart with a knife in the hands of Thomas King. When seen in his cell at the county jail shortly after the tragedy, King talked freely of the killing and told the following story. "Me and Will Edmondson and some more boys were playing 'skin' at the home, of Bettie Picgle when I won and then Will jumped up and started off with the money. I begged him to give me my money and he could have his dime and he ran out in the street, me following him, and he picked up a brick, broke it in half, and threw a piece at me. When he started to throw the other half, I rushed into him and stabbed him. I stabbed him 'cause I thought he was going to kill me." Other witnesses to the killing state that Edmondson was making an effort to escape when he was killed by King. Gambling, which is carried on regularly in the section where the killing occurred, has been a nuisance for a long time to the citizens living there and such tragedies as was enacted Saturday night has been expected. King gave his home as Tampa, Fla., and stated that he had been in the city for three months, during which time he has worked at the gas plant and the telephone company's office. Parolman Wolfenbarger and W. B. Adcock were the officers making the arrest. PLUCKY COLONEL STANDS UP FOR COLORED BOYS NEW YORK, Feb. 3.—Soldiers returning from the war zone in France tell of an effort made to transfer colored volunteers from fighting units to stevedores. It said that Colonel Dennison, of the old Eighth Illinois, was requested in May to sign his regiment for stevedore work, but refused, saying, "I will wade through blood to my neck before I will sign my regiment as stevedores." The colonel was later relieved of his command and sent back to the states on It was necessary to get the consent of Colonel Dennison because the Eighth left the United States as a first class fighting unit. In the case of the Fifteenth New York it was different, and the regiment was signed to serve as stevedores, which they did from the middle of February until the last of April.

SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON COMMENTARY A Modern Help for the Scholar of Uniformed Improved Sunday School Lessons for the Year (Reciprocal News Service) NASHVILLE, Tenn., Feb. 1.—Issuing from the press of the National Baptist Publishing Board this week is a Sunday School Lesson Commentary for 1919. The book is comprehensive in every detail. It deals with the uniform, improved Sunday School Lessons and is a series of publications begun in 1903 for the purpose of giving to the Sunday School pupil, teacher, superintendent, pastor and Bible student a simplified view of the International Sunday School Lessons. The improvements made on the publication from year to year have placed it in the first rank as a Sunday School help. The uniqueness of the publication, carrying as it does many features hitherto not used in the Sunday School, has placed it practically in a class by itself. For instance, there are five chapters in the beginning of the book devoted to a sort of a historical review of the Sunday School work known as our Modern Sunday School Home Bu Home Get our estimates on anything We Are A WESTINGHOUSE ELECTRIC-MF Bertram El Get our estimates on anything required in the electrical line.

This alone to the Sunday School Teacher is said to be worth the price of the book. And then there is a list of books used as references in the preparation of the volume, with a record for the classes and the teacher for each quarter, also an introduction to each quarter's lesson. Then there comes the authorized as well as the revised version. The improved uniform series as prepared by the Lesson Committee, carrying with it from now on lesson material as well as teaching material, gives the scholar the same opportunity as the teacher has had heretofore in making a research through the Bible for their information. The usual lesson sitting, the lesson outline and the Daily Home Readings are carried in the publication. Then there are simple outlines and many blackboard outlines in the book, together with several colored plates of biblical paintings and colored maps, with a Bible dictionary at the close of the volume. The improved uniform lesson subject and the motto text for the entire year of 1920 virtually give the Sunday School worker a glimpse of what he will study one year in advance. The National Baptist Publishing Board, of which Dr. R. H. Boyd is the secretary, is the only Negro institution in the United States issuing a complete Sunday School Lesson Commentary. They have their own member of the Lesson Committee, and this sixteenth volume has already had an unprecedented circulation. BLACK SOLDIERS WANT NO MORE SOUTH CHICAGO, Jan. 7.—A great racial shift will follow the war, according to ark L. Crawford, federal director of employment here, today. "Army life gives energy and self respect to men formerly indolent," he said. "Southern Negroes will hostate to return to their former homes. Reports from demobilization centers everywhere indicate our colored troops almost to a man plan to live in the north. "These men have worked and fought for their country.

Butler & Son Friday, February 14th--Special Class for Colored People BRING PENCIL AND NOTE BOOK PAGE FOUR (By E. Richard Petskey, M. D., Urologist and Sexologist, Phoenix, Ariz.) Tomorrow, Sunday, February the ninth, nineteen hundred and nineteen has been designated as "Health Sunday." Every American should make it a point to go to his place of worship on this particular day, if at no other time. It should be a sense of DUTY calling us to respond to the call which has been given out by so great a man as our friend, General Rupert Blue. He is indeed the American's people friend, for he is striving without rests to make the American people one of the healthiest races of the day. This is a governmental call. It is a national call. Respond to it heart and soul. When our boys were called to the colors to save our country, nothing was spared to make them "FIT," and now that they are about to be released from this work, Uncle Sam is still keeping his hand of protection over them as they return to civil life. When we were children there were so many times when we were reprimanded and forbidden to do that and that, or to go to such and such a place, or to associate with such and such a person. Then we did not realize what all that meant to our future and to the future of those who at some later period of life would be placed under our care and guidance. Uncle Sam is unto the parent. He is warning us and is anxious to see us all grow up to be "HEALTHY" men and women.

Phone 4-1-4-0 Of late, a great deal has been written on the subject covering venereal diseases, and it has had a very great moral effect already. Fortunately, the day of of "prudery" has passed, and passed away for ever. There is nothing to be ashamed of about the body that God has blessed us with. No, but there is a great deal to be ashamed of in the manner in which we abuse this wonderful body of ours. It is the object of the government, and many societies and physicians in private practice to do all in their power to eliminate venereal diseases, and this can only be done by constant co-operation from every side. Are you doing your bit? When we have tuberculosis or typhoid fever or any other ordinary disease, we do not go to a drug store and buy some patent medicine and attempt to cure ourselves. Then, why should anyone suffering from a venereal disease attempt to do so? Far less so, then. Veneral diseases require the very best of efficient treatment to assure of their elimination from the system. Unless properly treated and cured at the time, they may lie dormant for a while, only to break out again, and to break out in a more virulent form than before. It is an absolute injustice for a man or woman who is suffering from any form of venereal disease not to go to a competent physician for the proper treatment. Every such person ought to display enough honor and self-respect to be only too anxious to be CURED. Many a case of INHERITED VENEREAL DISEASE do physi- JUST ARRIVED OAKLAND sensible Si 61240 F.

Many are there who are this day syphilitic, not through their own actions, but through the inheritance of some neglectful ancestor. A common opinion seems to be prevalent at present that when a person goes to a doctor's office for treatment for a venereal disease, that his or her name is made public. This is absolutely erroneous. Each physician is required to make a record of such cases, but he is NOT to hand out the name of the patient. LIBERTY IN WAR When the announcement came from Washington some months ago that the United States had loaned five million dollars to Liberia, we wondered what the money was lent for. There was no obvious consideration for a loan of this amount to a republic of Negroes which had been formed under American auspices on the west coast of equatorial Africa—except, perhaps, a general feeling of friendliness on the part of the blacks of one country for the blacks of the other.

There was no obvious consideration for a loan of this amount to a republic of Negroes which had been formed under American auspices on the west coast of equatorial Africa—except, perhaps, a general feeling of friendliness on the part of the blacks of one country for the blacks of the other. This, however, hardly seemed to justify such generosity at the expense of American taxpayers—for money sent to Liberia seldom comes back. An explanation may perhaps be found in a statement recently made by a bishop of the Methodist Episcopal church in Liberia. Last April the colored republic suffered from an attack by a German submarine, which shelled Monrovia, the capital, and sank the President Grant, the only vessel of the Liberian navy. This was because the government of Liberia would not comply with the German demand for the destruction of the French cable and wireless station on the coast. On the contrary, the Liberians took charge of the plant themselves and sent 200 Germans to France to be interned there. They have also supplied the French army with hundreds of colored laborers, who received military training that qualified them, in case of need, to act as soldiers. According to the Liberian bishop the Germans have heretofore controlled three-quarters of the commercial enterprise in Liberia. Their interests have been seized and sold since Liberia declared war against Germany in August, 1917. In view of the vigorous action of the black republic against the common foe, we are not prepared to say that our generosity was misplaced. And no doubt the Liberians needed the money.—"Munsey." The first note in "high places" that has sounded against Wall Street is from Representative Heflin of Alabama, who states in Congress that thousands of farmers of the South have been robbed by the price of cotton being driven down from 37 to 24 cents. He's a bolshevik; he's pro-German; hang him! Tackle has been invented by a Washington man to make a falling tree pull out the stump of one cut down earlier in a lumbering operation. An oil well being driven in West Virginia has been drilled to a depth of 7.363 feet, and is now the deepest in the world. Pulverized peat is being used by the Swedish railroads for fuel with success.
