Race prejudice is bound to give way before the influence of character, education and wealth. These are necessary to the growth of our race. Without wealth there can be no leisure, without leisure there can be no thought, and without thought there can be no progress.—Booker T. Washington. EIGHTH YEAR—NO. 367 Why Girls Leave Home Is Told By Woman Who Gives a Remedy Why do girls leave home? Is it wanderlust? Is it the call of great cities, the entrance of women in industry, the freedom and adventure of the outside world? Or is it disagreement with parents, dissatisfaction with home life? Is it indeed a deadly homesickness of the home far worse than the ordinary well-known kind which is contracted when far away from the beloved place? Adjutant Julia Kessler, superintendent of the Salvation Army's Home and Hospital, 45th Street and Bluemound Road, at Wauwatosa, thinks that parents and home conditions are the most important reasons for girls leaving home. She is sponsor for a new set of ten commandments modeled closely upon the Mosaic decalogue but especially designed for parents to follow in order that they may keep their daughters at home. This is how they read: 1. The home is the sacred place of the family. Make it the holy of holies for members of the household, the happy hunting grounds for friendships, and the vale of sweet content in the valley of tears. II. Thou shalt not call thy daughter despicable names as "hussie," "vamp," "loafer" or good-for-nothing." III. Remember to keep merry the holidays and birthdays. Don't let the home life become drab with no Christmas tree, no Thanksgiving pies and no birthday cakes with candles. IV. Honor thy daughter with praise for her achievements, that it may be well with her and she may live long at thy fireside. V. Thou shalt not kill the spark of ambition and romance in thy daughter by insisting that she marry for money or by arranging any sort of loveless pact. VII. Thou shalt not take all of thy daughter's salary nor an unjust portion of it. She has a right to her rewards and thou must learn to respect her better judgments. VIII. Thou shalt not deceive thy daughter by not being frank with her, Tell her the truths of life when she should know them. Do not allow her to believe too long in Santa Claus or the stork. IX. Thou shalt not envy thy daughter's new dresses, nor her parties, nor her youth. Remember thou wert young once thyself. X. Thou shalt not envy thy daughter's lovers. Help her to choose friends and above all, invite her to entertain them in thy home. The officer believes that if parents keep these commandments and fellow the precepts and teachings of the Bible, more than half of the runaway girls would remain at home. "It is not the modish clothes that you place on the backs of your daughters—it is rather the good thoughts and desires that you implant in their hearts." The time to begin the training of one's daughter is in her infancy when habits of obedience and the spirit of mutual confidence are to be started. Better even, the time to begin is before the daughter is born by proper training of the mother, for if the mother possess wisdom the daughter's rearing is usually all right. As to the father, he ought to be a real companion to his wife and daughters and not merely the necessary evil of a breadwinner. Both parents must hold up the same high standards. Mere possession of wealth does not mean that the parents know how to properly bring up their children. Sometimes in the poorest homes the daughters have been taught the most refined feelings of sympathy and self-control. Relative to present-day trends, the Salvationists have come to the certain conclusion that modern dancing is the greatest menace to the morals of young women. Often when an officer asks the unmarried mothers at Salvation Army rescue homes if dancing had anything to do with their downfall, many of them exclaim, "Oh, everything." Cafe Changes Hands The Colored People's Cafe, 31 So. 2nd street, which for the past year has been under the management of Mr. and Mrs. Roy Lucas, changed hands last week, and Mr. James Brown and wife now are the new managers. Mr. Brown is a cook of no mean ability and we predict for him a wonderful success in this location. Emancipation Day Will Be Observed in Phoenix on Friday Friday, June 19th, all Phoenix and the valley will turn out en masse to celebrate Emancipation Day at East Lake Park and Pacific City Amusement Park. The feature attraction at East Lake Park will be the ball game between Salt Valley Lodge F. & A. M., and Maricopa Lodge F. & A. M. The game will be called at 3 p. m. and Grand Master, Joe Ready, will pitch the first ball. Some old-time ball players are lined up on both sides and will try to stage a "come back." G. T. Tinsley, who several years ago was the pitching "ace" for his Regiment in the U. S. Tenth Cavalry, will toss the ball for Salt Valley, while C. C. Caldwell, known throughout Arizona as a "pitching demon," will be on the mound for Maricopa. This game will decide "Who's Who" among the Masonic Fraternity, and the Colored Elks Lodge has challenged the winners. The Elks Lodge is composed of all young men and real ball players, with possibly one exception, the Exalted Ruler, "Bill" Jones, popular chef at the Phoenix Country club, who knows more about Virginia baked hams, southern corn bread and fried chicken, than he does about the game of base ball. However, he will not be expected to play when the teams clash, as his fatherly advice is all his boys need to take the measure of any team in existence. At Pacific City Amusement Park the big attractions will be put on at night, when the mammoth swimming pool and dance pavilion will be thrown open to all who wish to enjoy them. It is also planned to have a big speaking program as the early evening attraction, so that those who do not care to dance or swim may enjoy the addresses, Take your choice and go to either place and you will be well entertained. Basket picnics may be held at either park, as ample provision has been made at Pacific City and of course, you know what East Lake affords. Those who have cars will divide their time between the two places, while others less fortunate may make use of the Pacific City bus which makes regular trips to the park. All former residents of Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Georgia are urgently requested to visit Pacific City Amusement Park Saturday evening, as the management has a pleasant surprise in store for you. Everyone is invited, but the big surprise is for natives of the above named states only. Let's make June 19-20 real holidays and enjoy life once, anyway. OUR WEEKLY LESSON IN ENGLISH By W. L.

WE ORIGINATE----OTHERS IMITATE PHOENIX, ARIZONA, SATURDAY, JUNE 20, 1925 Championship Game Will Be Big Feature Today East Lake Park Everybody come to East Lake Park Friday, June 19th, and see Salt Valley and Maricopa Lodges cross bats for the championship of the world. Maricopa Lodge No. 1 has the strongest lineup on earth. You don't believe it? Look at this: Joe Ready, pitcher; Poor Perry, catcher; George Caldwell, first base; Allen Smith, second base; Ed Moore, short stop; Aubrey Carter, third base. The manager believes his men are so well trained that he will not need any fielders. In fact, he believes Maricopa with the above lineup, has a cinch on winning the game. If you want to see a real, honest togoodness ball game, and enjoy a hearty laugh, be at East Lake Park Friday at 3 P. M., when Salt Valley Lodge No. 4, F. & A. M., and Maricopa Lodge No. 1, F. & A. M., cross bats. I thank you. Poor Perry, manager. Kid Hodge, Captain. Brother of Phoenix Woman Makes Brave Dying Statement Mrs. Bullock Brown, 109 West Jackson street, received the sad news of the death of her brother, Rev. James Lee, who passed away recently in Doddsville, Miss. His wife writes that while he was ill for some time, he left a good testimonial. She relates that one night while he was ill, he called her to his bed and said: "I might pass out during the night and so, I wanted to tell you how matters stood with me and my God. For 36 years I have been preparing for this very moment, and when I have passed on you may tell the world that I am somewhere around that shining throne at Jesus' feet. For I know that when this earthly tabernacle shall dissolve, I have a building of my God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens." Mrs. Lee writes further that all the people in that vicinity say they have never witnessed a more peaceful and happy death than that of Rev. James Lee. Another statement he made on his death bed was that he had his ticket purchased and was merely waiting for the trumpet of the Lord to sound, calling him to his reward. Mrs. Brown states that her brother was a minister of the gospel and had been preaching effectively in the south for many years. On a trip through the south about a year ago, Mrs. Brown visited her brother and other relatives and friends in Mississippi and Alabama. The funeral of Rev. Lee was one of the largest ever held in Doddsville, many whites attending along with the colored people. Stationery (paper) and stationary (fixed). Twelfth. Note the "f," not "v." Khakl.

Dr. McDonald Among Leading Physicians of the Southwest Prominent among the professional men of Phoenix is Dr. A. A. McDonald, physician and surgeon, with offices at 238 East Washington St. Since coming to Phoenix about three years ago, he has established a large and growing practice among the Spanish speaking people as well as among his own group. Born in Texas, Dr. McDonald was educated in the schools of that state, graduating from the Rockdale High school as valedictorian of his class. He then entered Prairie View Normal, from which he graduated with honors. Upon completion of his literary training at Prairie View State Normal, he entered Meharry Medical College, Nashville, Tenn., completing his four years' course in 1915. Immediately after graduation, he passed the Medical Board in his home state and opened offices in Calvert, Texas. Here he enjoyed a lucrative practice until he was called into the Government service where he spent two years service in the Army Medical Department. Altogether, he practiced five years in Texas before coming to Arizona. DR. A. A. McDONALD In his practice here, Dr. McDonald has performed over twenty major operations at the Booker T. Washington Hospital, three at St. Joseph's and two at St. Luke's. He has been called upon to give expert testimony in a number of cases in Superior Court, and was highly complimented by Court officials for his simplicity of style and manner of testifying, in that he refrained as much as possible from the use of technical terms, so common to the medical profession. Dr. McDonald is a member of the Elks Lodge, American Legion, Negro Business League, N. A. A. C. P., and a regular communicant of the First Colored Baptist church. He is a man of broad vision, pleasing personality and generous to a fault. In all civic affairs, tending to the betterment of the community and the advancement of his race, Dr. McDonald takes an active part, and may be considered in every sense a man who loves his race. This brief sketch about Dr. McDonald and his wonderful success since coming to Phoenix, would be incompleate without a few words about Mrs. McDonald, his estimable companion. It is she who has encouraged him in his work, and when all about him looked dark, spoke the words of cheer and comfort that made him more determined to go forward. To use the Doctor's own words, she has served as a dynamo and has been instrumental in bringing out of him the best there was in him. Too much credit cannot be given her and mere words are inadequate to express the prominent part she has had in whatever success the Doctor has achieved. Mrs. McDonald is an ideal mother, affable, modest and unassuming, and their two children reflect the home training given by this ideal wife and mother. She also is a member of the First Colored Baptist church, prominent in club and lodge circles and takes a keen interest in affairs tending to racial betterment. Dr. and Mrs. McDonald live in a modest home at 1641 East Jefferson street, and are in every way model citizens. Reserves at Iron Springs Mrs. M. M. Rodgers and four representatives of the Colored girls reserve, enjoyed a summer outing at Iron Springs, together with representatives from all the reserves in the state. "Nothing could disturb the serenity of his manner." INEVITABLE; that which cannot be avoided. "The accident was an inevitable result of carelessness." Desertion Charge Against Hicks is Dismissed by Court Mrs. D. L. Hicks of Prescott, who is here stopping with friends in 611 South 7th avenue, last week filed complaint against her husband, Clarence Hicks, charging desertion. A hearing on the charge was held and same was dismissed. The husband has now filed a cross complaint charging extreme cruelty and seeks absolute divorce on these grounds. Hicks is an ex-service man and is a patient in the Government hospital at Whipple Barracks. He voluntarily came down from Prescott to answer the charge filed by his wife. Colored Women Will Hold Convention In Cheyenne, July 10-20 The Fourth Biennial Convention of the Northwestern Federation of Colored Women's clubs will be held at Cheyenne, Wyo., July 19th to 21st inclusive. It marks the tenth anniversary of its organization and is its final session as the Northwestern Federation now exists. It is remarkable in that by its division into three sectional Federations of the National Association of Colored Women, the Northwestern, Southwestern and Central. It will mean that the Northwestern is giving larger service to the National. It will mean more trained women in immediate service, more frequent contact between the women of each new section and a unifying of sectional strength according to the peculiar problems and needs. It will give three times as many women a chance to prepare for leadership. We are hoping that the States in this section will be largely represented at this convention to participate in the closing rites of the Northwestern and the formation of the three new sectionals. Mrs. Bethune, Miss Hallie Q. Brown, Mrs. Cora C. Horne and Mrs. Myrtle Foster Cook are among the prominent National women who have expressed their intention to be present. We hope many more will find it possible. The wide-awake women of Cheyenne, under the leadership of Mrs. Ollie Hopkins Redd, Vice President at Large of the Northwestern, are very busy preparing for the entertainment and care of the delegates and visitors who are expected to attend the convention. Have you sent in your name for reservations? It is very necessary that the Local Committee have your name at the earliest possible moment as they must make reservations with the Secretary of Frontier Days Committee to have seats, at least a month beforehand. The Searchlight Club of Cheyenne will be hostess to the occasion. The Governor of Wyoming will welcome you to the city at the opening night session. The Mayor of Cheyenne will also be on hand to do the bidding of the Club women. The women of Cheyenne know how to put things over. It is your job to be on hand to see them do it. The program will not be over crowded. A resume of the ten years work of this section of the National will be a novelty to us. The women from the east propose starting about a week before the opening of the convention in order to visit the club women along the route of the Rock Island. Read February National notes, to be informed regarding the new divisions. Further information gladly given on request to the General Officers of the Northwestern, 4131 Calumet Ave., Chicago.

DIVORCES 27 WIVES: CAIRO, Egypt—(Associated Negro Press)—A watchman at the Alexandria custom house, now in his 79th year, has just divorced his twenty-seventh wife and is now looking for his twenty-eighth one. The man Khamis Elerabi, says he has more than fifty children. "I have spent 70 years trying to understand my wives, but each time it resulted in a divorce." Gov. Geo. W. P. Hunt Honors Colored Man With Appointment Paul Green, one of the proprietors of Green Bros. barber shop, 17 North Central Ave., has received an appointment from Governor Geo. W. P. Hunt as State Commissioner, to receive contributions toward the expense of promoting an educational campaign, in the interest of the passage of H. J. Res. 245, which was introduced by Representative Wood in the first session of the 68th Congress. The Resolution proposes to create a commission to secure plans and designs for and to erect a monument or memorial building in the City of Washington to the memory of the Negro soldiers and sailors who fought in the wars of our country and the late World War. From Bunker Hill to the Argonne covers a period in the history of the world that can never be effaced. The first blood shed on American soil in the revolt against English tyranny was that of a Negro, Crispus Attucks. From that time until now, the record of the Negro in the Army and Navy has never been questioned. Their deeds of bravery, their loyalty and patriotism should be immortalized in Statues and Memorials as are those of other people. The National Memorial Association has asked Congress to erect such a Memorial in the form of a beautiful building in the city of Washington, the Nation's Capital, and we feel that every loyal American should be willing to assist in this great movement. It is a tribute we owe, and an honor to our race to lay the foundation of our moral and financial support in the erection of a great memorial building, not only to our living and dead Negroes, but a great educational temple, where statues of great men and women of our race may be placed to give inspiration, hope and pride to the youth of our land. Paul Green is the authorized representative of the Association for Arizona, and all contributions from this state should be made to him at 17 North Central Avenue, Phoenix, Ariz. Ferdinand D. Lee is president, Samuel C. Smith, executive secretary, and John R. Hawkins, treasurer of the National Memorial Association, whose headquarters are at 923 R Street, N. W., Washington, D. C. YOUR FAULTS In speaking of a person's faults, Pray don't forget your own; Remember, those with homes of glass Should seldom throw a stone. If we have nothing else to do But talk of those who sin, 'Tis better we commence at home, And from that point begin. We have no right to judge a man Until he's fairly tried. Some may have faults—and who has not? I'll tell you of a better plan; I find it works full well, To try my own defects to cure Before of others tell; And though I sometimes hope to be No worse than some I know, My own shortcomings bid me let The faults of others go. —Anonymous. KLAN BURNS FIERY CROSSSES To Celebrate Passage of Bible Bill Huge fiery crosses, the symbol of the Ku Klux Klan, blazed forth from hilltops and other points of vantage in all sections of Cincinnati and Hamilton county last night. The Cincinnati cross-burning is said to have been part of a statewide program, according to which every Klan organization in the state burned a cross in its territory, in celebration of the recent passage of the Bible bill by the Ohio General Assembly, makking the reading of the Bible compulsory in the public schools. To Visit Northwest Miss Birdle Perkins is leaving soon for the Northwest to spend the summer with friends. She also will stop in California and enjoy the cool sea breezes. This government is based upon the fundamental idea at each man, no matter occupation, his race, or any religious belief, is entitled to be treated on his worth as a man, and neither favored nor discriminated against because of any accident in his position.-Theodore Roosevelt. Price 10 Cents a Copy, $2.50 a year Moral Crisis Exists Says Noted Writer; End Is Not in Sight "The entire world is facing a crisis in morals. Sensuous dances, inordinate love for games of chance and licentious performances in a multitude of theaters are external symptoms of a breakdown in morals, which has been too conspicuous throughout the world in the past decade." In addition to the above comes the auto with its facilities for wholesale or retail petting parties, and the incitement to moonshine that prohibition has produced. As surely as the sun shines old standards of morality are being rapidly demolished. Necessity will force in future an adjustment of a new set of morals to correspond with the new set of people being evolved by modern methods of living. The following article from France will shed more light on the subject since it shows that women are advocating and demanding a double standard. Possibly men may soon be forced to become mothers, or population will cease for lack of babies. Women Want More Husbands Paris—Women's inable desire for the fantastic was responsible for two curious innovations this week. One was formation of a league in favor of amending marriage laws, to permit every woman, if she so desires, to have two husbands. The other was the inauguration of a great feminine fad for wearing not only their initials or names sewn into their hats, coats, handkerchiefs, bracelets, and even their stockings, but also with certain mysterious signs in a new "love code," the secret of which is revealed by this week's Cride Paris. In this code, a single bracelet of green stones means "I am single and looking for a male friend," and a bracelet ornamented with sapphires means "I am unhappy married. You may talk to me." A bracelet with nothing but diamonds means "money talks," while a bracelet of amber or tortoise shell means "I am willing to talk, dance, or go to the theater—but that is all." A combination of jade and sapphires indicates "I hate men." The men are now considering a similar code governed by colored handkerchiefs. Lea Bergson, President of the Association for Sexual Liberty for Women, asserts that it is time to revert to prehistoric days, when woman had the right to have as many husbands as she wanted, and declares: "In the present day, husbands are literally foisted upon girls, and the so-called free choice is mere mockery. Many a woman marries a blond man, only to find that she really likes dark ones the best. She should be allowed to make a second choice." The brilliant sunshine today helped the fashion parade at Long Champs, but many of the new arrivals found it hard to tell which were men and which women, so accentuated have the masculine styles become. "The really feminine woman seems to have disappeared with the horse and carriage." YOUR OWN CHURCH If you want to work in a kind of a church Like the kind of a church you like.

Second Hand Clothing Bought and Sold Come in and look us over prayer meetings and in the evening services. The whole town was stirred as never before, and the church is moving on. We wish especially to make mention of the closing session, when by her convincing argument and strong appeal, three strong men, U. S. soldiers, and one noble woman, stood up and with feeling, confessed Christ. Two desired membership in St. James and two went to the Holiness church. Final results of the meeting were: nine conversions, ten added to membership of St. James; a warm place in the hearts of the people for the Evangelist and a better spirit of co-operation among our group. Several valuable tokens of appreciation were presented Sister Duncan by the women and men of the community, and for which she evidenced joy and gladness. She also was well pleased with the free will offering taken for her. Sister Duncan proposed a fund, and donated a liberal portion of her receipts thereto, and placed in the parsonage a fine ice box, all paid for. A blessing and a lasting good has been to our city, St. James A. M. E. church heartily endorses Sister Duncan and her work, and recommends her to the favorable consideration of pastors of whatever denomination, who want a vc?csoulstirring rivalist. Our pastor, Rev. Thornton, is all smiles over the success of the meeting. WM. DUNCAN, reporter. REV. W. T. THORNTON, pastor.
