Phoenix Tribune

DR. EMMETT J. SCOTT TAKES EXCEPTION TO TRIBUNE EDITORIAL Following is a letter received from Hon. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard ; University, Washington, D. C., in reply to an editorial which appeared in the Phoenix Tribune issue August 7. The letter follows: August 10, 1920. I have just received a copy of the Phoenix Tribune, issue of August 7th, containing news item sent out from Atlanta, Ga., and headed "Emnett J. Scott only handy man to the secretary of war." I have no disposition to quarrel with your headline or with your editorial. Nevertheless, I think it desirable that I advise you that your editorial intimates a situation which never existed and which no one has sought to intimate did exist. As you know, the secretaries of the various executive departments and their assistants are statutory positions and are usually filled by men of the same political faith of the administration controlling them. In the case of the war department when war was declared, there were statutory provisions for the assistant secretary of war, which position was filled by a representative of the administration's political faith. However, the war necessities made it incumbent that the interests of special groups be taken care of and it is worth while mentioning that there served on the staff of the secretary of war at various times the following gentlemen, all of whom were known and addressed as special assistants to the secretary of war: 1. Dr. Ernest Martin Hopkins, president of Dartmouth College, Hanover, N. H., who left his important work as president of Dartmouth College to serve as special assistant to the secretary of war. 2. Dr. F. P. Keppel, Dean of Columbia University, served the government as special assistant to the secretary of war, afterwards being nominated as third assistant secretary of war, which position lapsed July 1, 1919. Dr. Keppel is now connected with Red Cross activities. 3. Mr. Dalter Lippman, one of the editors of the New Republic, New York City, served on the staff of the secretary of war as a special assistant. 4. Mr. Felix Frankfurter, of Howard University Law School, served as special assistant to the secretary of war before he was transferred to the department of labor to help compose labor difficulties during the war. Truly it seems to me this was a representative group of men to be included among. The interests of practically every group in America, as you will note by the above named, except our group, was taken care of when I was invited to serve on the staff of the secretary of war as a special assistant to the secretary. On October 5, 1917, the official bulletin (published under the direction of the committee on public information) and the Associated Press, carried the following announcement: Advisor to War Department "Secretary Newton D. Baker of the war department announces that Emmett J. Scott, for eighteen years confidential secretary to the late REMARKS BY HARDING In his speech of acceptance in Marion, Ohio, Senator Warren G. Harding, the Republican candidate for President, answers the question for the party and for himself. "I believe the federal government should stamp out lynching and remove the stain from the fair name of America." And this: "I believe the Negro Citizens of America should be guaranteed the enjoyment of all their rights, that they have earned the full measure of citizenship bestowed, that their sacrifices of blood on the battlefields of the Republic have entitled them to all of freedom and opportunity, all of sympathy and aid that the American spirit of fairness and justice demands."

British lightweight wrestling champion, his next match at Tally's Arena. The inside boys have been predicting defeat for Peter in every match, but Peter goes right on tossing the best they produce and saying nothing. Each time he tackles a harder and more experienced man, and each time he pins 'em down with striking regularity. He has firmly entrenched himself in local sporting circles, despite a few who contend that Peter has been favored in the arena. Sauer is a good sport, a gentleman, and as fine a fellow as you will meet in any walk of life. Win or lose, Peter will retain the many friends he has made since his arrival in the city of Phoenix. In addition to the Clapham-Sauer wrestling contest Friday evening, Matchmaker Tally has arranged two good preliminaries, one wrestling contest and a four-round boxing contest between Walter Sinclair and Sherill Ellis. The men will weigh in at 145 pounds at 3 o'clock the afternoon of the fight. Policeman Is Slain By Negro; All Blacks Ordered to Leave City Eszerville, Va., Aug. 19.—All but three Negroes have been ordered to leave Eszerville by a citizens' committee. Policeman Wilson was killed in the Negro quarters last Sunday afternoon by unknown Negroes and the order followed the killing. MFCA The Paradise Baptist State convention of Arizona held its first annual meeting at Mesa, August 10th to 15th.

Calvary Baptist church of Tucson had four delegates; Mt. Olive Baptist church of Prescott had three delegates; Mt. Baptist church of Douglas had two delegates; the church at Somerton, Ariz., had one delegate. Antioch Baptist church of Phoenix was refused admission to the convention, and its pastor, Rev. C. A. Gilmore, formerly corresponding secretary of the convention, was dropped from the roll. Many old-time friends met in Mesa at this convention and all had a delightful time. Those who attended all the sessions of the convention had the opportunity to hear some powerful sermons by the leading Baptist divines of this state. Rev. Green of Albuquerque, N. M., now pastor of the Second Baptist church in Phoenix, was at the convention and made a favorable impression upon all. Monday the 16th the convention adjourned and the delegates departed for home. Many remained in Phoenix to attend the lecture of Kelly Miller at the high school. Mr. Ed. Wilson has moved into his new home. ARIZONA'S.

(Special to The Tribune) WASHINGTON, Aug. 19 — Some time ago S. H. Dent, a demagogic congressman from the state of Alabama, who was for a while chairman of the committee on military affairs, was defeated for nomination. Dent is a southerner of the cheap cracker type who did all he could during the world war in connection with the selective service regulations to prevent the draft from applying to white and colored soldiers allike. He eagerly sought some subterfuge whereby he could have one set of regulations apply to colored men and another set to white men. This democratic effort was squelched by the ranking republican member of the committee, Mr. Julllus Kahn, and his republican party associates. Dent, of course, was playing up, or down, to his demagogic constituents while reflecting his own cheap type of mind. The secretary of war also fought Mr. Den't efforts and to snow that he had no sympathy with him called Dr. Emmett J. Scott to Washington to serve as special assistant to the secretary of war. Dr. Scott's designation was made plain in the Official Bulletin of the government, through the Associated Press, and is set forth in full detail in Dr. Scott's book, "The American Negro in the World War." Dent was defeated by his constituents for renomination on the ground that a colored man had served in the war department as an assistant secretary of war, and that Dent should have prevented it. To square himself with his constituents, Dent has requested the secretary of war to say that Dr. Scott was not an "Assistant Secretary of War" but a "Special Assistant to the Secretary of War." It is well known that during the war hundreds of men were called to Washington to serve in special relationships. No political implication was involved in Dr. Scott's service as he makes clear in his book. He served, as hundreds of other republicans served the government including such men as Mr. Tatt, Justice Hughes, Benedict Crowell, Julius Rosenwald, E. R. Stettinius, and hundreds of others. Both the secretary of war and Dr. Scott clearly understood that he was rendering service to our government in time of need and not political service. Secretary Baker in his letter to Dent, states: "Dr. Scott's assistance was of the greatest value to the government and to the people of the colored race." The cheap politics by which southern politicians are kept in congress is nauseating to say the least. COLLEGE GRADUATE ACCEPTS POSITION ON POLICE FORCE Washington, D. C., Aug. 19.—Adelaide Childs, a colored woman of this city, has been appointed a policewoman. She took the civil service examination for the place and passed with a high percentage. Miss Childs is 25 years old and is a college graduate. She will be given work among the colored population. WHAT NEXT WILL OCCUR IN NORTH CAROLINA? (By Associated Negro Press) Greenboro, N. C., Aug. 19.—Bonnie Gatlin, a young Negress, charged Mack Fisher, a Negro, with criminally assaulting her, and he was bound over to the criminal court last Tuesday morning. The girl is said to be in a critical condition as a result of the assault. CONVICTED ON UGLY CHARGE (By Associated Negro Press) Jacksonville, Fla., Aug. 19.—Lucius Harris, a Negro porter in a local hotel, was tried in the municipal court last Tuesday morning charged with an attempted assault on a young white woman. The woman claimed that Harris entered her room and sat on the bed. Harris was sentenced to 90 days at the city prison farm. He was convicted of suspicious and disorderly conduct. If it is true that Europe is beginning to ship its undesirables over, Uncle Sam may have to enlarge his deportation facilities. A husband who lost heavily at cards was hit over the head by his wife with a poker. Nothing like a poker to stop poker!

Honorable W. H. Lewis Delivered Strong Address In Portland, Oregon (By Associated Negro Press) Portland, Ore., Aug. 19.—William H. Lewis, the noted Negro lawyer of Boston, Mass., delivered a notable address at the Lincoln high school last Monday night. Among other things, Mr. Lewis declared: "Colored men helped to make the world safe for democracy in the recent war, and yet nowhere in this country is the Negro safe from mob violence. It appears that everywhere he is made to feel that the rights guaranteed by the constitution of the United States are not for him." (By Chester Maryland) Mrs. J. A. Lewis left last week for Superior to spend a few days visiting her husband. Mrs. S. H. Tate of Gary, Ind., is a visitor in camp this week. She is a guest in the home of her niece, Mrs. Mary Maryland. A party of Rayites motored to Superior last Sunday to witness the ball game between Ray and Superior. The score was 6 to 1 in favor of Superior.

Miss Louise Lewis, who was visiting in Ray, returned to Hayden with her sister, Mrs. Maryland. ON WARPATH IN ALABAMA (By Associated Negro Press') Ozark, Ala., Aug. 19.—Sills Spinks and Juster Jennings were lynched here last Saturday night following an attack on a white woman at Midland City. The bodies of the two Negroes were discovered out on the road between here and Midalnd City. Several Negroes have been given notice to leave the city at once. Feeling is very high and there may be more lynchings. A most grievous mistake can be made at this time by asking a man in overalls if he would like the job of beating your rugs. W. D. WATKIN Grand. Master. WM. M. McDONALD, Grand Secretary. White Men Lured To Ruin By Colored Women, Is Charge (By Associated Negro Press) Meridian, Miss., Aug. 19.—Negro prostitutes are being driven from the city by the police.

PROF. KELLY MILLER DELIVERED NOTABLE ADDRESS IN PHOENIX Dean Kelly Miller of Howard University, Washington, D. C., delivered a notable address Monday night, Aug. 16, at the high school auditorium. In the course of his remarks he said that lawlessness was gnawing at the vitals of this nation and that there would be no peace until we had a perfect people. The professor scored Mr. Wilson and his League of Nations, and remarked that before we got through with the Peace Treaty and the League of Nations it would be a "piece of a league." A large crowd turned out to hear the address and there were many Caucasians in the audience, who seemed to enjoy the lecture. J. L. Davis, president of the Phoenix Protective League, under whose auspices the lecture was given, acted as master of ceremonies. Preceding the introduction of Dean Kelly Miller by Rev. M. Thompson of the C. M. E. church, a short program was rendered, consisting of a vocal solo by Harold Carriger, piano solo by Miss Cora Smith, and a solo by Mrs. W. J. Jones.

Silks are coming down in price and there is growing uneasiness lest silk be used as an adulterant of these high-priced cotton goods. TRIBUTE BY COOLIDGE Northampton, Mass. In his speech of acceptance of the Republican nomination for Vice-President here, Governor Calvin Coolidge made the following brilliant reference to the loyalty and worth of the colored citi-zens: "There is especially due to the colored race a more general recognition of their constitutional rights. Tempted with disloyalty, they remained loyal, serving in the military forces with distinction, obedient to the draft to the extent of hundreds of thousands, investing $1 out of every $5 they possessed in Liberty Bonds, surely they hold the double title of citizenship, by birth and by conquest, to be relieved from all imposition, to be defended from lynching, and to be freely granted equal opportunities."

Let us ike it up in the case of the individual rather than the group. t us be optimistic and say: everyone has a chance to make his ark in life. Some say, life is like a pendulum that swings far one way hen back the other way. Remember, the ways of the trapeze erformer jumping from one trapeze to the other? He holds on ightly and swings and swings; finally, having reached a half ‘ircle in his swinging, he lets go, and is carried to the other point. he same principle is true in every-day success. If we hold on ight enough, and swing hard enough, we can reach the desired lace in life. In every person's career there is a turning point. Getting to he point, it is often like going up the side of a mountain, but mee on top the going is easy, and the scenery is fine. Were you ver on top of “Umbrella Rock” on Lookout Mountain, Chat- mooga, Tennessee? It is a magnificent view. Before you is a ndscape covering historical points in seven different states. But ‘ou have to go up the mountain side in the incline ear, or some ther way, before you have the privilege of the view. The turning point in life is not a matter of luck, but one of lecjsion. It matters not what experience you have passed hrough; what obstacles and stumbling blocks have been placed your pathway, what seemingly false friends have deserted you in the crisis; what unkind things have been said, or what kind ings have been left unsaid, if the day of decision is reached, the urning point for success has come, and all the militant powers f hades cannot hamper your progress, for you are on the moun- in, not in the valley. You are high up in the realm of POWER here the ether waves of victory travel on through time and nity. _In every avenue of our life, everywhere; there are young en and women, who are reaching the turning point.

She got off the train and Car son asked me to escort her uptown—it | was @ark, you know.” | “What do you suppose she’s come yere for?” | “Not the slightest idea; I take it | that’s her business.” | “Sure; but a feller can’t help won |derin’, can he? Donovan,” he mused Deering at the name; “that's Irish, 1 take it—hey?” “Suspiciously so; you are some de |tective, Pete. I'l give you another | elme—her eyes are Irish gray.” | He sauntered across to the stove and stood looking idly at the card | Players, blue wreaths of tobacco smoke circling up from the bow! of his pipe | Some one opened the street door, let | ting in a babel of noise, and walked heavily across the office floor. West | cott turned about to observe the new comer. He was a burly, red-facec | man, who had evidently been drinking heavily, yet was not greatly under the | Influence of liquor, dressed in checked suit of good cut and fashion but hardly in the best of taste. He _bore all the earmarks of a commer | cial traveler of a certain sort—a domi | neering personality, making up b3 | sheer nerve what he might lack in brains. But for his words the miner would have given the fellow no further thought. | “Say, Timmons,” “hé burst fort | noisily, and striding over to the desk “the marshal tells me a dame blew it from New York tonizht—is she regis tered here?” |The landlord shoved tlie book for ward, with one finger on the last sig nature. | _“¥ep,” he said shortly, “but she ain't the one you wuz lookin’ for—I aske | ner that, furst thing.” | “Stella Donovan—huh! ‘That's ne | name ever I heard; what's she loo! | like? Dark or light?" | “Waal, sorter medium, I should say brown hair with a bit o° red in it, an u pair o' gray eyes full of fun—some girl, to my notion.” ‘The questioner struck his fist on the wood sharply, “Well, what the devil do you sup pose such a woman has come to thi hole clear from New York for, Tim mons? What's her game, anyhow?” “Blessed if I know,” and the pro prietor seated himself on a high stool “I didn’t ask no questions like that: maybe the gent by the stove there a Heli a St ‘A if hs i i Hf i" a i ‘ | oe “ want. He brought her yp from the de- poo, an’ kin talk English, Say, Jim, this yere is a shorthorn frum New York, named Beaton, an’ he seems ter be powerfully fiterested in skirts— Beaton, Mr, Jim Westcott.” ‘The two mén looked at each other, the miner stepping stightly forward, apd _knocking the ashes out_of. bis ‘pipe. Beaton Jaugned, assuming @ semblance of good nature. “My questions were prompted sole- ly by curiosity,” he explained, evi- ‘dently not wholly at ease. “I was ex- pecting a young woman, and thought this new arrival might prove to be my friend.” “Hardly,” returned Westcott dryly. “As the landlord informed you, Miss Donovan fs a lady.” |_ If he expected. this shot to take ¢f- fect he was disappointed, for the grin never left Beaton’s face. “Ah, a good joke; a very good joke, ‘indeed. But you misunderstand; this ‘Is altogether a business matter. This ‘young wouran whom I expect 1s com- Ing here on a mining deal—it is not a love affair at all, I assure you.” “I thought possibly you might care to question me regarding my acquaint- ance with the young woman?” West- cott went on, his voice hardening slightly, “If so, I keve not the slight- est objection to telling you that it con- sists entirely of acting as her escort from the station to the hotel. T do not know why she is here, how long she ‘intends staying, or what her purpose may be. Indeed, there is only one fact I do know which may be of interest to you,” Beaton, surprised by the language of the other, remained silent, his face turning purple, as a suspicion came to ‘him that he was being made a fool of. “It is this, my friend—who she is, what she is, and why she happens to ‘be here, is none of your d—n bust- ness, and if you so much as mention her name again in my presence you ‘are going to regret It to your dying day. That's all.” - Beaton, glancing about at the uplift- ed faces of the card players, chose to assume an air of indifference, which scarcely accorded with the anger in his eyes, “Ah, come now,” he blurted forth, “T didn’t mean anything; there’s no harm done—let’s have a drink, and be friends.” Westcott shook his head, | “No, I think not,” he satd slowly. “I'm nét much of a drinking man my- sett, and when I do I choosé my own company. But let me tell you some- thing Beaton, for your own good. I know your style, and you are mighty Apt to get into trouble out here if you use any Bowery tactics.” “Bowery tactics!” “Yes; you claim to live in New York, and you possess all the earmarks of the East side bad man. There is noth- ing keeping you now from roughing it with me but the sight of this gun in my belt, and a suspicion in your mind that I may know how to use it. That suspicion is correct. Now you go back to your barroom, where you will find plenty of your own kind to associate with. It's going to be dangerous for you to hang around here any longer.” Beaton felt the steady eyes upon him, but was carrying enough liquor to make him reckless. He stepped backward, feigning a laugh, watchful to catch Westcott off his guard. “All right, then,” he said, “I'll go get the-drink; you can’t bluff’ me.” Westcott’s knowledge of the ‘lass alone brought to him the man’s pur- pose, Beaton’s hand was in the pocket of his coat, and, as he turned, appar- ently to leave the room, the cloth bulged. With one leap forward the miner was at his throat. There was a report, a flash of flame, the speeding bullet striking the stove, and the next Instant Beaton, his hand still helpless- ly imprisoned within the coat pocket, was hurled back across a card table, the players seattering to get out of the way. All the pent-up dislike in West- cott's heart found expression In ac- tion ; the despieable trick wrought him to a sudden fury, yet even then there came to him no thought of killing the fellow, no memory even of: the Tonded gun at his hip. He wanted to choke him, strike him with his hands, “You dirty coward,” he muttered fiercely. “So you thought the pocket trick was a new one out here, did you? Come, give the gun up! Oh! so there is some fight left in you? ‘Then let's settle it here." It was a Struggle between “two big, strong men—the one desperate, un- scrupulous, brutal; the other angry enough, but retaining self-control! ‘They crashed onto the floor, Westcott still retaining the advantage of posi- tion, and twice he struck, driving his clenched fist time. Suddenly he be- came aware that some one had jerked his revolver from its holster and, al- most at the sume instant a hard hand stipped the neck-band of his shirt axd tore him ioose from Beaton. “Here now—enough of that, Jim,” said a voice sternly, and his hands arose instinctively as he recognized the gleam of two drawn weapons SATURDAY, AUGUST 21, 1920 brim, grinned at the others as though “at & good joke, “No, nuthin’ particular as yet” he answered; “but you hev’, an’ I reckon | thet’s Just about as good. Tryin’ ter ‘keep it dark, wasn't’ yer?) Never even thought we'd caught on.” “Oh, yes, I did; you flatter your- selves. I caught one of your étool- pigeons up the gulch yesterday, and more than ten days ago Moore and Edson made a trip into my tunnel while I happened ‘to be away; they forgot to hide their trail. I’ knew what you were up to, and you can all of you look for a fight.” “When your partner gets out here, T suppose,” sneered Lacy. “He'll be here.” “Oh, will he? Well, he's a h— of a while coming, You wired him a month ago, and yer've written him twice since, Oh, I've got the cases on you all right, Westcott. I know you haven’t got a cent Ieft to go on with, and nowhere to get any except through him.” He laughed. “Ain't that right? Well, then, yer chances look mighty slim ter me just at pres- ent, ol’-timer. However, there’s no fight on yet; will yer behave yerself, an’ iet this’ man Beaton alone if I hand yer back yer gun?” “There is no choice left me.” “Sure; that's gensible enough; give it to him, Moore.” : He broke the chamber, shaking the cartridges out into his palm; then handed the emptied weapon over to Westcott. His manner was purposely insulting, but the latter stood with lips firmly set, realizing his position. “Now, then, go on over thar an’ sit down,” ‘continued Lacy. “Maybe, if yer wait long enough, that partner o’ yours might blow in. Come on, boys, let’s liquor. Big Jim Westeott has his claws cut, and it’s Beaton’s turn to spend a little.” Westcott sat quietly in the chair as they flea out; then took the pipe from his pocket and filled it slowly. He realized his defeat, his helplessness, but his mind was already busy with te future. CHAPTER V. Sy eee ae Ma 7s PER Stella Donovan never forgot the miseries of her first night in Haskell, When old Man Timmens finally left her, after placing the flaring lamp on a chair, and went pattering back down the bare hall, she glanced shuddering- ly about at her unpleasant surroynd- ings, none too pleased with the turn of events. ‘ ‘The bed-clothing, once turned back and inspected, was of a nature to pre- vent the girl from disrobing; but final- ly she lay down, seeking such rest as was possible, after turning the flicker- ing flames of the lamp as low as she dared, and then finally blowing it out altogether. Her thoughts, never still, wandered over the events of the eve- ning—the arrival at Haskell station, the strange meeting with Westcott, and the sudden revelation that he was the partner of Frederick Cavendish. ‘The big, good-natured miner had in- terested her from the first as repre- senting a perfect type of her precon- ceived ideal of the real westerner. She_had liked the firm character of his face, the quiet, thoughtful way in which he acted, the whole mobtrusive bearing of the man. Already he had awakened her trust; she felt con- vinced that if she needed friendship, advice, even actual assistance, here was one whom she could implicitly trust. She was young and she awoke rest- ed and refreshed, in spite of the fact that her body ached at first from the discomfort of the cot. She stared abont at the bare, board wails, the bul- Jet-searred mirror,the cracked pitcher, before she could fully reassure her- self; then stepped upon the disreputa- ble rug and crossed to the open win- dow. She straightened up, emitting a swift breath of delight, as her wide-open eyes surveyed the marvelous scene of mingled loveliness and graudeur. The stream, curving like a great snake, gleamed amid the acres of green grass, its swift waters sparkling in the sun. Beyond, seemingly at no distance at all, yet bordered by miles of turf and desert, the patches of vivid green in- terspersed with the darker coloring of spruce, and the outcropping of lrown rocks, the towering peaks of a great mountain-chain swept up into the clear blue of the sky, black almost to their summits, which were dazaling with the white of unmelted snow. ‘The girl's eyes dwelt lovingly for some time on the far-flung line of mountains, before she finally released the green shade, and shut ont the scene, Her toilet was a matter ef but a few minutes, although she took oc- casion to slip on a fresh waist, and to brighten up the shoes, somewhat soiled by the tramp through the thick dust the evening before. Indeed, it was a very charming young woman, her dress and appearance quite suf- ficiently eastern, who finally ventured ‘out into the rough hall, and down the single flight of stairs, The hotel was silent, éxcept for the heavy breathing of a sleeper in one of the rooms she passed, and a ‘melancholy-looking Chinaman, apparently engaged in chamber work at the further end of the hal. She passed out into the bright sun- shine, and clear mountain air. The board walk ended at the corner of the hotel, but a narrow cinder path con- tinted down that side of the street for some Uistance, ‘Through the rude win- dow at the post office the clerk pushed ‘a plain manila envelope into her out- ‘stretched hand.

Washington of Horton, Kan., arrived in Santa Monica last week and are the guests of Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Washington of Phoenix, Ariz., who also are spending the summer on the coast. Mr. L. W.

Forgot His License Friends and relatives of Mr. Tod Tannehill, 1719 East Jefferson street, tell an amusing little story on him. Mr. Tannehill, who before his marriage a few days ago to Mrs. Jennie Simpson, was a widower and lived alone in his home at the above address. On the evening the marriage was to take place, he came home, dressed himself and attempted to slip out the back way so that his friends and relatives next door would not know what was to transpire. How heit, he forgot and left his marriage license on the bed and had to return for it. Then the news leaked out and they gave him a jolly time. He remarked that it was all right if they would just keep it out of the Tribune. Of course, we wouldn't dare publish an account of it, not us. No, never The C. M. E. church is still maintaining its record congregations during the hot summer months, thanks to the masterly sermons delivered by the pastor, Rev. M. Thompson. Last Sunday night there was hardly standing room. Two new members were added to its growing membership. Next Sunday morning Rev. Thompson will preach on "The Joy That Comes to an Individual Who Surrenders Himself to God." Evening, "Citizenship in Heaven." Hear him. Sunday School Picnic The Sunday'school of the C. M. E. church will give a picnic at East Lake Park, Saturday, Aug. 21st. All of the Sunday schools of the different churches and friends are invited. The midsummer festival of the C. M. E. church of last week was a success. For three nights in succession the church was filled to capacity. A feature of the festival was a complete change of program each night. The performance will be repeated again next summer. On Picnic Outing Last Sunday a jolly group of Pho- nix people motored out near Chandler to enjoy a little picnic. In the party were: Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Brown, Mr. and Mrs. John Williams, Mr. and Mrs. Pat Rivers, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Glass. Hunting, fishing and other sports were indulged in and all report an enjoyable time. Infant Son Passes Christopher Thomas Childress, Jr. THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE-ALWAYS IMPROVING infant son of Mr. and Mrs. T. C. Childress, 828 East Washington street, passed away Monday, August 16th, after a lingering illness. The funeral will be held as soon as a sister and brother, Clorell and Parquet Childress, arrive. Home From Texas Mrs. W. A. Brown of 112 South Eighth street returned a few days ago from San Angelo, Texas, where she had been visiting relatives. Her sister, Mrs. Wm. Carter of San Antonio, Texas, accompanied her to Phoenix and will remain for an indefinite stay. Notice to the Public We have five colored ladies in Phoenix who are qualified by training and experience to take care of any case of home sickness, and we suggest that you give them a trial. They are: Mrs. Genevieve R. Smith, Mrs. Eliza Richardson, Mrs. Melessia Lott, Mrs. Lucille Howard and Mrs. Rosa Cunningham. Death of Relative Mrs. T. J. Sanford, wife of the pastor of the A. M. E. church, received a telegram Monday informing her of the death of her sister, Mrs. Daisy Parks, in Emporia, Kan. Mrs. Sanford and baby, Julia Vivian, left on Wednesday for Emporia to attend the funeral. En Route to Texas Rev. Wm. Young, formerly pastor of the Mt. Olive Baptist church, at Globe, and president of the Paradise Baptist Convention, spent a few days in Phoenix this week while en route to Waverly, Texas, where he will remain for an indefinite time. The Tribune will follow, of course. CARD OF THANKS We desire to thank our many friends for their sympathy and loving kindness during the illness and death of our son, Christopher Thomas Childress, Jr., who departed this life Monday, August 16. THOMAS C. CHILDRESS. Mrs. THOMAS C. CHILDRESS. Large Attendance Sunday services at Tanner chapel, A. M. E. church, were well attended and the spirit ran high. The pastor delivered two able sermons and all were benefited by his words. The collection for the day was $27.00. PRESCOTT Mrs. John Suddoth returned Sunday from Phoenix, whither she had been visiting for the summer. Her stay was cut short on account of being called by her husband to look after business matters at home. Mrs. Suddoth has greatly improved in health and is feeling fine. Mrs. Lucy Mackey Haywood is a recent arrival and is staying at the home of Mrs. W. D. Alexander. Mrs. C. B. Blakeley of Tucson is a visitor in the city and is staying at the home of Mrs. W. D. Alexander. Sunday services at the A. M. E. church were well attended. The pastor delivered two strong sermons and the collection was up to the usual high standard. Mrs. William Page is taking a vacation and is planning to go on a fishing trip with her husband and daughter. Dr. and Madam E. E. Hilbert entertained Rev. Boatner at 10 o'clock breakfast Sunday morning. Mrs. O. G. Howard of Phoenix is the house guest of Mrs. F. Alexander in North Monezuma street. Citizens of Prescott, especially well wishers of the People's A. M. E. Zion church, after a long and patient wait for a pastor, having laid their demands before the bishop for an able and experienced leader, have at last realized their dreams. Dr. D. W. Boatner, late of Kansas, has arrived and is now in charge of the work. He is a scholar of the first magnitude and has had some thirty-five or forty years' experience, both as pastor and as professor of several universities at different times, is already stirring up things. He is an able exponent of God's word, forceful, logical and sincere. We predict that in a very short time the consensus of opinions on the entire western coast will be that Dr. Boatner is one of the strongest men in the ministry. We realize that we are on the threshold of a new day and we hail the same with joy. We hope that he will continue to wield the sword of victory until ignorance and indifference shall vanish into oblivion. Life and the conductor of a trolley car find it mighty hard to get people to move up toward the front. We hate ingratitude, but next to that we hate the man who does you a favor and then expects you to go on forever being grateful. What's become of the old-fashioned husband who used to have to beat all the carpets in the backyard about this time of year? The minute you make up your mind that you know all about your own business some young fellow is getting ready to go by you. One of the strangest things we know of is how men with less brains than we've got make more money than we do without getting arrested. DO YOU KNOW THAT YOU CAN BUY Refrigerators, Oil Stoves, Rugs, Linoleum and Trunks, Suit Cases and Valises—in fact, anything in the FURNITURE LINE. Now and then you run across a man who is willing to take what he can get without insisting that he is entitled to the best there is in the house. There's no use arguing with a young man who has made up his mind to be a June groom. If the present prices won't scare him nothing you can say will. Somehow or other we can't help thinking that the man who makes the automobile is a better and more useful citizen than the man who merely rides in one. A lot of clerks seem to have the mistaken notion that what customers come into the store for is an argument, when service is really what they are after. Also, we wish we knew waht the laundryman wants with so many of our buttons. And it has just about gotten so in this country that even a philanthropist doesn't give away all his money. Another reason why a man who makes a three-hour speech is opposed to woman suffrage is because he is afraid she will talk too much. Personally we disclaim all ingenuity, but sometimes we have wondered if the moth ball dissolved in turpentine would interest a regular drunkard. Tillie Clinger says that the reason she didn't last long as clerk at the candy store was because the boss soured on her sweet tooth. It is because a woman is a riddle that man is so reluctant to give her up. A woman's instinct is that which tells her she is right whether she is or not. Most of the mischief in this world is done by the people who go about doing good. The good die because they realize that there isn't much use living if they have to be good. The astonishing woman is she who can conquer the world in a frock she has made herself. No matter how loose an engagement ring may be, the diamond never slips round on the inside of a lady's finger. A man who looks at a woman because he wants to; a woman at a man because she wants him to look at her. The road to greatness runs through every occupation. The test of every man will not be that of skill, but of honor. Far worse than having work to do is not having any work to do. The fool is not the only one who is soon parted from his money nowadays. The automatic inkwell has netted $200,000. The roller skate has paid $1,000,000 in rolayties. The suspender garter patent was sold for $50,000. The glass lemon squeezer made $50,000 for the inventor. Wooden shoe pegs earned half a million dollars in royalties. The ball-and-socket glove fastener has passed the million mark. The return ball toy, a rubber ball on a rubber string, yielded half a million dollars a year in royalties for a number of year. The Peruvian government will link scattered communities on the eastern slopes of the Andes by an airplane service, carrying passengers, mail and freight. A recently patented automobile windshield has a band of silvered glass along the top to serve as a rear vision mirror for all the occupants of a car.

In addition to this every communication that went out from my office during the war was signed "Special Assistant to the Secretary of War." It is for that reason that I am a bit surprised that you should have rested under the impression that I had served in statutory relationship to the war department. My book, "The American Negro in the World War," which was published during the summer of 1919, carries a full and complete statement of the circumstances surrounding the creation of this place during the war and on page 49 a copy of the letter written by the secretary of war reading as follows: Office of the Secretary of War November 1, 1917. To Division and Brigade Commanders; I have appointed Mr. Emmett J. Scott, of Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, as a special assistant to the secretary of war, to advise with respect to the colored people of the United States, colored drafted men, and the colored men who constitute units of national guard divisions. He will be visiting national army cantonments and national guard camps, and it is my desire that he be given every opportunity to follow up the work I have entrusted to his care. He will personally present this letter. Secretary of War. This letter addressed to brigade and division commanders makes it clear that my activities covered a wide area and must make plain to you that the executive relationship of that position were more inclusive than your editorial would seek to convey.
