VIRGINIA SHORE LIBRARY VOLUME XXXVI. NUMBER 25 RICHMOND, VIRGINIA SATURDAY, MAY 3, 1919 SWEET 071000 - 2011000 - 2012 SOUTHERN STUDENTS OBJECT TO LUCIAN B. WATKINS A LESSON IN SUPERIORITY. "Ladies and gentlemen what have you against Mr. Wattkins? I did not come here to address the love question, on the what have you against Mr. Wattkins? Mr. Wattkins is a man who is engaged, intelligent and retired in his business. He is clean, own personality and morality. Between twenty years as a partner he served his and our country honestly and faithfully. He was discharged honourably because of unanticipated involvement in the Government service. Now what have you against him? I do not want to know what you have against his race out what have you against him personally?" MIR GREENER EMPHATIC The speaker was Mr. Greener, a representative of the Federal Board for Vocational Education, Washington D. C. Writenlata was Mr. Ferry of the District Office, Vocational Board, Cincinnati. These gentlemen had come to Littleton at the recent request of President L. H. Bush of the Illinois College of Pharmacology, Mr. Greener was addressing the students on the subject, some of which had expressed objections to the acceptance of the Federal Board in auditing fees for vocational training the coated students, Lennie B. Warrington. AN EXPLANATION THAT EXPLAINS Mr. Greenner had explained briefly the plan of the United States Government to rehabilitate its disabled soldiers. He had appealed to the intelligence, communal society, sense of justice and participation of the students assembled. He had commended them of the test that coached men had been considered good enough to die in France for our American ideal and that he himself could not fail that they are not good enough to receive vocational training of American anywhere. The fact that the students that were so equipped of indulgence the men who have discipline can earn money and good jobs is so important and poor lives who are so desirous that he does not like women, those who are blue things or people who are desirous that no man can in tell simply the legitimate by race, that the time worth of a man is his individual imperative of the race to which he belongs. RECULIAR ANSWERS ```markdown ``` a objected man and I was prohibited to enter the room. I am from the South. Mr. Greeter replied, "If you object to Mr. Watkins colly be cause he is a school man. I am sorry for you." Great applause by the majority of the students.) The first student's wife timidly said that she felt the same way about the matter as her husband. A DISCHARGED LIEUTENANT The second student, a discharged lieutenant in uniform, gave a loud that he has his wife and child with him here at the school; that he is only a graduate of Cornell University and some of the objectors now the better educated or more superior than he but he had no objections at all to Sentiment Walking as a fellow student in fact, he was glad to be a student with Sentiment Walking. PROPOSED SEGREGATION Then come the separation of the body. A defendant I suppose) of Stuart Lawrence agrees with the third pose and said: "If the haunted don't know the difference between a white man and a nigger, I do! There's a roin' ter be he dawn' round here, behove me! Stuart body, in the rear indeed! I suppose we are to have social equality now, truth." An her partnered that even in France colored soldiers were segregated. There was something about the paper and inferior races. Thus ended the meeting. The federal repressent intives hurried for their train. What their report will be I do no know. JAPANESE THERE TOO There are only about one half dozen of these "superior creatures" among the students here. This small minority is a mode that belies the toughly and the peaceful student ladies and gentlemen here. Japanese, Chinese and many nationalities are represented among the students here at the Hiroshima College. There is no process of abduction to anyone except to the one covered American at their malt. HEARO IT ALL looking the chicle of Mr Green's entitlement address and tint which beamed, the colonized student in question, the process writer so and heard it. I thought of what it meant when he huff, he bough, and yet he was delivered to the room and was chastified. "He was led as a school to the minister, and since a hambulim before the shearer so opened he not his mouth." THE QUESTION OF SUPERIORITY I was about. Yet I have my life importantly into my memory. I believe that the man who behaves himself is so hateful superior to the one who does not behave; that he who is more innocent is superior to the one who is ruthless than the black man with the white principle is a perfect to the white man with the black principle that is in our real world, in that which he actually been may say anyways; that the white agent in New York who receives a co- ordinal pledge will be superior to the "whitelist" government who rejects that some student. Shannon himself belongs there simply but true to priority is be born on more than a bounty. It is the nobility of the pun- nent soul. Cleopatra and Lincoln like humidity of prostitutes. LEMANN R.

A GREAT MUSICAL EVENT At the city Auditorium, May 19, 1919 The National Film School Rev- elation and Exhibition of Congress of American Cinema Rev. Dr. Reed Speaks. Editor Richardmond Planet. Dear Sir, I thank Dr. Gradstein before in the Planet with pleasure and satisfaction. I heartily agree every day. I also observed things correct. Richardson is concerned and I use nothing that points to the spirit of man, even though we deserved it. Our mistakes are eternal our purpose, fixed, our march steady, our hope, mechanized and our leadership facing the God our Master bid, no march on. Yours for success, and spirit of the fathers at Petersburg. W. B. REED Hartford, N.J. Dear Dr. C. G. Moore, at the C.A. Auditorium Sunday, May 13th, 1900 P. M.

JOHNSON ANENT TER-CENTENNIAL HE MEETS THE ISSUE SQUARELY AND MAKES IMPORTANT SUGGESTIONS Mr. Edil of These presents the space in your paper to reply to these questions and instructions presented by the Rev. Harvey dunion of Baltimore, in the article which appeared in the Planet under date of April 15, 1849. Those who read the article will countily agree with the that his questions and questions are somewhat greedy. He quotes several authors that declare plainly that the fruit No process landed in this country in the year 1859 and then ask me to give the date and year in which to a event took place. NO CLAIM TO GREATNESS. I find I contend that I am not great or even those in our class but I do want to be wiser than my teachers. That or, joining my, be more fully in instructed on this point we refer him to some authors which is, possibly, William L. "Queen of Remembrances" by Nostrophe on the Republic; "Grace on the Requiem" by B. Tyler; His history of Virginia B. Cook; G. History of Virginia; Evidence in our favor is cumulative. What need we of truth or point of a matter well known to such any school boy in Virginia. What is he to make with Dr. Johnson? THE QUESTION OF QUESTIONS: I know that well known that both the doctrines and also the church were both written by the exact course of whose happenings thereby were so recorded in the Announcement of Christ that he gave to the congregation on the day of the启示 that he be called old man, so he called latter Sunday. If Doe be instructed the discernment nature of the celebration of those "sacred words" with the purity and truth in the course of all the church, so forth be known the true of their impurities be those "sacred words" YHENNE A COLD WALL THE Celebration of SlaveYan He further insists we should write on every event that involves our story in this country. I answer on plainly, yes. The Institute in this country was not so needy but like the discovery of America, Columbia, and the continent lived in Europe it was by divine providence. We can write on every event here and the world in every event of our own story in this country.

He had appealed to the intelligence, common sense, sense of justice and patriotism of the students assembled. He had reminded them of the fact that colored men had been considered good enough to die in France for our American ideal and that he himself could not think that they are not good enough to receive vocational training with Americans anywhere. He had told the students that races are composed of individuals that the man who says he dislikes an entire race is as ignorant and foolish as one who declared that he does not like yellow things or blue things or green things; that no man can in intelligently discriminate by races; that the true worth of a man is his individuality irrespective of the race to which he belongs. PECULIAR ANSWERS. Mr. Greener was answered, for the most part with ante bellum and South ern plantation talk of sixty years ago. The first student arose and asked that he would accompany him to to the dark-room upstairs by which he basely suggested that there was some simuler connection between that mysterious dark-room and his objection to being in the institution with a colored student. Mr. Greener's time being limited, he had to insist that the student state his case right there in the assembly-room. The student then said that he has his wife with him as a student here and that he did not wish that she should ever have to go into this dark room with a colored man. Mr. Greener asked the student if she (the objector's wife) had to go into this room with other men. An unintelligible grunt was the answer Mr. Greener received. A WORD ABOUT THE DARK ROOM Now, this dark-room, in question is nothing more than a closet where a sensitized photographic plate is placed in o or taken from the plateholder. The operation requires only a few minutes. There is never a real necessity for but one person to enter this room at a time, unless the second person is the professor who gives the instruction. By mutual consent, two students may enter and load their plateholders at the same time. This is always optional with the persons concerned. NOTHING AGAINST HIM. Returning to Mr. Greener's question as to what this student had against Mr. Watkins the confused answer was: "I have nothing against—er—er—Mr. Watkins—only one is a colored man—and I am prejudiced to colored people. I am from the South." Mr. Greener replied, "If you object to Mr. Watking solely he cause he is a colored man, I am sorry for you." Great applause by the majority of the students.) The first student's wife timidly said that, she felt the same way about the matter as her husband. A DISCHARGED LIEUTENANT. The second student, a discharged Lieutenant in uniform arose and said that he has his wife and child with him here at the school; that he is only a graduate of Cornell University and some of the objectors may be better educated or more superior than he but he had no objection at all to Sergeant Watkins as a fellow-student — in fact, he was gld to be a student with Sergeant Watkins. PROPOSED SEGREGATION Then came the sensation of the hour. A descendant (I suppose) of Simon Legree arose, with flushed face and said, "If the Lieutenant don't know the difference between a white man and a nigger, I do! There's er goin' ter be sup'n doin' round here, believe me! Somebody in the rear asked, "I suppose we are to have social equality now, huh?" Ano'her remarked that even in France colored soldiers were segregated. There was something said about the superior and inferior races. Thus ended the meeting. The federal representatives hurried for their train. What their report will be I do not know. JAPANESE THERE TOO There are only about one half dozen of these "superior creatures" among the students here. This small manority is a mob that bullys the faculty and the peaceful student ladies and gentlemen here, Japanese, Chinese and many nationalities are represented among the students here at the Bissell Colleges. There is no expressed objection to anyone, except to the one colored American in their midst. HEARD IT ALL. During the whole of Mr. Greener's intelligent address and that which followed, the colored student in question, the present writer sat and heard it a.1. I thought of Christ against whom no fault was found, and yet He was delivered to the mob and was crucified. "He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb, dumb before the shearer so opened he not his mouth." THE QUESTION OF SUPERIORITY I was silent. Yet I have my ideas about superiority and inferiority. I believe that the man who behaves himself is something superior to the one who does not behave; that he who is unselfish is superior to the one who is selfish; that the black man with the white principle is superior to the white man with the black principle; that a man's real worth is that which he actually is—he may say anything; that the white man in New York who accepts a colored fellow-student is superior to the "white" Georgian who rejects that same student. Superior human beings there surely are, but true superiority is based on more than a boast. It is the nobility of the human soul—the Christly and Lincoln-like humility of greatness. —LUCIAN B.

RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, MAY 3, 1919 Another Stab to Ethiopia LONE NEGRO LYNCHED IN ARKANSAS APR.25,1919. GEOFF BEN DOWDSON-5-19 ONE CONVENTION IN VIRGINIA (S. A. Moses) The sentiment for union in the ranks of the Baptist Denomination in Virginia is ripe, Dr. King, our President has sounded the keynote in calling everybody to Petersburg for constructive work and the people are coming. There is no longer need for two State bodies. The President of the General Association has expressed the willingness of that body to come home. Aside from what he has said, I have talked with other leaders and found them in full accord with the movement and are praying that official action shall soon be taken in the matter. There is enough work for all of us to do. There is glory enough for all, if it be glory for which any one can look for at this great hour in our Denomination, President Woods is asking for more room at the Seminary and we are going to give it to him. It will take all that all of us can do to make the needed room and to look well to the needs of every department of Baptist work in this State. There is no feeling other than that of brotherly love between the young men of the two bodies. They believe the same things that we believe and are asking for a larger means by which to express that belief in a tangible way. "Can any man forbid water that these should not be baptized who have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?" With the Union of our State bodies and the work properly systematized we can raise at least $10,000 a year, and thus take better care of everything than we have ever done. The opportunity for this is knocking at our door and if we are not big enough and broad enough to grasp it, God will take it from us. Let Virginia Baptist come on to Petersburg and let us make the first official step in obedience to the call of Dr. King. DR. SKIPWITH IN BROOKLYN. Evangelist Aids Rev. A. C. Math in Brooklyn, N. Y. Revival started here Sunday last. The Rev. W. H. Skipwith B. D. noted preacher and singer, just closed a successful meeting in White Plains N. Y., is now with us. The people of our church and community are crowding in to hear him. He preached to the ministers of New York and vienna Monday last and they heard him gladly. —A. D. B. THE GREAT BAPTIST RE-UNION HERE, JULY 30-AUGUST 3. The Great Baptist Re-union and historic celebration of the landing of the Negroes at Jamestown will be held in Richmond, Va., July 30-August 3, 1919, under the auspices of the Baptist General Association of Virginia, the Women's Missionary and Educational Association of Virginia, the Virginia Baptist State Sunday School Convention and the Baptist Young People's Union of Virginia. The Baptist men and women who have gone out from our old State are asked to cooperate with us in making the meeting a success in every way. An effort will be made to raise $25,000 in the meeting for Missions and Education.

BEATEN AND SHOT: NOTHING IS SAID OR DONE. (Edmond Watts) Glamorgan, Va., April 20.—A coloreed man bought a gun. On the following Sunday he went out in the woods. No one was near at the time and a drunken white man hit him on the head and shot him. No arrest has been made. We can't see why the colored people insist on "over loving" a man. It is a shame. Where is justice. Miss Nash Overstreet, of Dante, called on her sister, Mrs. Carrie Brown, at Wise, Va. Rev.

Calish will speak at the First African Baptist Church tomorrow, at 3:30 P. M., benefit of the Self-Denying Missionary Drive. DR. LEWIS REPLIES TO DR. JOHNSON ANENT TER-CENTENNIAL HE MEETS THE ISSUE SQUARELY AND MAKES IMPORTANT SUGGESTIONS. Mr. Editor—Please grant me space in your paper to reply to some questions and suggestions presented by Dr. Harvey Johnson of Baltimore, Md., in an article which appeared in the Planet under date of A ril 18, 1919. Those who read the article will doubtless agree with me that his questions and suggestions are somewhat specious. He quotes several authors that declare plainly that the first Negroes handed in this country in the year 1619 and then asks me to give the date and year in which this event took place. NO CLAIM TO GREATNESS. I must confess that I am not great or than those authors nor do I claim to be wiser than my teachers. That Dr. Johnson may be more fully in structured on this point we refer him to some authors which he possibly overlooked: "Queen of Republics" by Northrop of the Republic; "Cradle of the Republic" by Tyler. History of Virginia b c Cook. Gills History of Virginia; Evidence in our favor is cumulative. What need we of further proof of a matter well known to most any school boy in Virginia? What is the matter with Dr. Johnson? THE QUESTION OF QUESTIONS It is a fact well known that both Dr. Johnson and also his church celebrate events, the exact dates of whose happening history gives to record. Is Dr. Johnson sure that Christ was born on the 25th day of December or that he arose on who, we call Easter Sunday? Does he advise the discontinuance of the celebration of those great events, viz. the birth and resurrection of Christ, for sooth because the date of their happening is uncer tain? RUNNING A COLD TRAIL. What heats it, if the landing of the first Negroes in this country took place in 1620 instead of 1619? Of one thing we are sure that the race had a beginning in this country, that we are not aborigines. It is not the date but the event we seek to perpetuate in history. Furthermore since Dr. Johnson admits that some historians say that the Negroes landed in this country in 1619 we fail to see the ground of his contention on this point. It is also evident that he is running a cold trail. THE CELEBRATION OF SLAVERY He further asks should we celebrate an event that involves our slavery in this country. I answer emphatically, yes. Our landing in this country was not an accident but like the discovery of America by Columbus, and the sojourn of Israel in Egypt it was by divine providence. We can account for our being here and the marvellous development of our race in this county during the past three hundred years on no other ground. Be it understood that we do not believe that God in any wise sanctions slavery; but we do believe that God permitted us to enter this condition as a school in which we were to be trained for future usefulness and service. I pleased God to make slavery the bridge over which our race was to pass from savagery to civilization. Hard school for a hard but apt student. It was in the course of God's leading. ALL GREAT RACES SUB- SERVIENT. All great races have been at some time or other subject to and under the tutelage of some other race more advanced in civilization. Such was the case with the Americans and the English then why should we wonder that divine providence ordered our course through slavery to civilization. The hand of God in our history is to my mind very evident. In cote brating the great event of the landing of the first Negroes in America we seek not honor for ourselves but rather to praise and honor Cod who has so wonderously directed our racial goings. A CIVILIZED PEOPLE NOW. From the twenty idolatrous and peniless savages which landed at Jamestown, Va., Aug. 1619 we have developed into a race of civilized PRICE, FIVE CENTS people numbering more than twelve millions with thousands of churches and Sunday Schools in which they worship the true and living God. We have thousands of schools of all grades owned and controlled by us. We have personal and real estate valued at many hundred millions. We have men and we—men of well night every rank and calling in life. Preachers; teachers; lawyers; doctors; phar-macists; editors; publicists; artists; inventors; merchants; bankers; judges; authors; orators; real estate agents; machinists; farmers; cham-ber-maids; cooks; architects; builders; carpenters; brick-layers; painters; stenographers and what not. What has God wrought; Wonders! Wonder! Wonder! WANT HIM TO HIM. We hope Dr. Johnson will see his way clear to join with us in our efforts to honor and praise God for its marvelous blessings upon our race. It was the great Fred Douglas who said: "We should praise God not so Continued on the third day." Continued on the Fourth Page. RED CIRCLE NOTES On account of the Hampton Semi-Centennial the date of our opening has been changed to Monday, May 5th. The house will be open during the day and afternoon for the inspection of the general public. In the evening there will be a short program be gnitting promptly at eight o'clock when we will have the pleasure of in introducing our New York representatives and several out of town guests. The men are especially invited to be present on this occasion. Wednesday the twenty-third War Camp Community Service carried a party of more than thirty young women to a dance at Camp Lee. A special car visa provided for transportation both ways. Among the chaperons were Mrs. Mundin, Mrs. Louis Wakkins; Mrs. L. C. Miller, Mrs. R. K. Wood and Mrs. M. A. Norrell. The men from the camp who extended the invitation spared neither effort nor money in making the occasion a very enjoyable one for the young ladies who attended. On Monday evening the twenty-eighth, Camp Stuart Baseball team was entertained by the Red Circle Club with a dance, and again on Tuesday evening they were entertained ed at the Red Circle Club by the Emmanon Literary Club. The men all agreed that they had never had such a pleasant time as at the Girl's Club. Aside from the social events at the club we have sewing, knitting, needlework, nursing, and culinary clubs; these clubs are open to all wo men and girls in the community. A CARD OF THANKS Mr. Edward Hall takes this means of expressing his greatest appreciation to the members, neighbors and friends for their many tokens of kindness and love during the illness and death of his wife, Mrs. Julia Austin Hall. May God's richest blessing ever rest upon each one who in any way helped to bring words of comfort to aching hearts. RANDOLPH—In sad, but loving remembrance of our dear mother, Mrs. Millie Randolph, who departed this life, fourteen years ago, May 5, 1903, in Hampton, Va. "She suffered patiently and long. Her home was bright, her faith was strong. The peace of Jesus filled her breast, And in His arms she sank to rest. Your memory is as dear today As in the hour you passed away. When days are dark and friends are few. Dear mother, how we long for you. By her daughters, ROSA B. HICKS. RACHED R. HICKMAN. THE IDEAL NURSERY ANNUAL REUNION.

It was a real surprise to officers and boys of the Negro Reformatory Association when a party of twelve on Easter-Monday headed by Mrs. Ora B. Stokes and accompanied by her distinguished husband, Dr. W. H. Stokes pastor of Ebenezer Baptist Church Richmond Virginia made a trip to the Negro Reformatory, Hanover Virginia an Industrial School for wayward Boys of the State of Virginia for the purpose of distributing among the 250 persons including boys and officers; 500 blocks of ice cream and several boxes of delicious cakes, purchased by the officers and members of the Neighborhood Association and other doners of Richmond Virginia. The President, officers and boys expressed their appreciation not only to members of the Party but to those who did not come but who were in instrumental in donating the $55.00 which made such a remarkable surprise possible. Immediately upon the arrival of the party, the Battalion was formed by Lieutenant L. W. Driver Assistant Disciplinarian and Prof. W. B. Layton who has served this institution faithfully for several years and the boys went into the Academic Hall Assembly Room where members of the party were introduced to officers and boys by Mrs. Ora B. Stokes. The following members of the Neighborhood Association of the party of Richmond made short and interesting talks; Mrs. Hanna Johnson, chairman; Mrs. Maggie H. Hill Secretary, Mrs. Mattie L. Tyler General Agent; Mrs. Harriett Thompson Vice-President; Mrs. Blackwell an efficient social worker of this organization as well as a member of the Council of Colored Women of the city of Richmond; Miss Bertha Thompson, Mrs. Faulkner; Mrs. A. G. Thompson and Mrs. Harriett Blunt who has had much to do in looking after the personal comforts and happiness of President T. J. Edwards of the Negro Reformatory Association of Virginia during his boyhood days. Rev, Dr. W. H. Stokes being the only gentleman with the party was permitted to speak last; we need not say here that the talk of such a well known learned Divine in the direction of encouragement to the boys, was received with abundance of enthusiasm and encouragement from both officers and boys of this institution. The program for the gledicts was rendered with success—the boys under the leadership of Mrs. B. V. Edwards wife of the President, sung plantation melodies i a manner not surpassed by many institutions of learning. Each member of the Neighborhood Association was delighted to be greeted by 200 happy and appreciative boys, and twenty-five or more officers and teachers. They expressed their delight at seeing the beautiful farm of 100 acres of wheat and an equal amount of oats and rye. They found the early spring garden planted. They were glad to meet Prof. B. L. Bozeman an active energetic farmer being a graduate of Hampton Institute from the Agricultural Department as well as from its Academic Department. They also met Mrs. B. L. Bozeman the wife of Prof. Bozeman. A chance to peep in at Prof. Bozeman's work was indeed an inspiration to the party. The members were especially pleased with appearance on the grounds and living quarters of the boys. They all expressed that they were glad to find the boys doing well, but were sory of the conditions which caused them to be there. After the program the party was served dinner in the Presidents house, while the boys enjoyed the ice cream which the party had sent a few hours ahead of their coming. After dinner the party inspected the boys. The boys of Richmond being especially sought for. They saw that the boys and officers had been abundantly served and that there was not only enough but some to spare. Thus closed one of the happiest days the institution has witnessed in four years. Happy because some body thought it worth while to make others happy who might not have been happy had not somebody thought. (Miss) ANNIE E. EDWANDS, Secretary. HELP IN THE READJUSTMENT OF BUSINESS. Personal self-interest, and a higher motive the desire to aid the nation and its adjustment of conditions from a war basis $t_0$ a peace basis, should urge every citizen not only to retain the Liberty Bonds and other government securities in which he has invested but to continue saving for further investment in the work of the government. The investment of intelligently saved funds in the United States as a going concern is the best evidence of real peace time patriotism. You are doing this at a time when capital is sorely needed to develop industries as a means of insuring proper peace time prosperity. Holding steadily to your present investment in government securities and giving to buy more during the present year releases resources necessary to finance business. New business safeguards the wage earner's present position and opens up further avenues of employment. There is much discussion as to what things are needed to enable the country safely to travel the way from war to peace. The individual citizen can contribute no greater aid in this troublesome journey than to maintain and increase his holdings of government securities. He is thus helping the whole country while he helps himself by saving to assure his own economic stability. RED CIRCLE CLUB NOTES. The Red Circle Club is looking for ward to the formal opening of the building on May 2nd, to which the public is very cordially invited. There will be representatives from our New York office, from the War Department in Washington; and War Carap Com munity Service workers from through out this district.

The Acme Culinary club with Miss Carrie Turn er as hostess held a very interesting food demonstration. Miss Turner showed the ladies present how to pre pare salad in tomato cups and fruit salad. Mrs. Louis Watkins entertained a party of friends in the sun parlor on Thursday evening. A delicious menu was served consisting of chick en salad, fruit salad in orange baskets; cakes; punch; and candy. Mr. Henri Beaugard Organizer of Community Music for W. C. C. S., formerly of the Metropolitan Opera Company New York city and more recently a member of Admiral Mayo's Staff Atlantic Fleet will give one after noon each week for training a chorus of girls. All girls over fourteen years of age who are interested in music are invited to avail themselves of this unusual opportunity for musical training by meeting at the Red Circle Club Thursday evening at six o'clock.

It is a real scalp food; it stimulates and nourishes the $ \mathrm{e} $ roots of the hair, causing a natural growth of long hair. Quinade is the invention of an expert chemist and is made under the supervision of an experienced registered pharmacist. It makes the hair soft and smooth and easy to put up in the style desired. To get best results from the use of Quinade, it is necessary to shampoo the scalp about every two weeks with Seoby's Quinasoap. Quinasoap is made entirely out of pure vegetable oils, principally cocoanut oil, and is a thorough cleanser. Quinasoap lathers very freely. It leaves the hair soft and fluffy and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequalled by any other shampoo. Do not accept any substitute, but insist on getting Seoby's Quinade and Seoby's Quinasoap, asking for them by the full name. Price is 25 cents each. If your druggist or dealer does not stock these two articles ask him to obtain them for you from his wholesaler or send us the price and we will mall them to you.

There is no use worrying about anything. We'll all be dead after awhile. Reliability is a trait worth having and yet so many of us are without that trait. True love never runs smooth, they say and true matrimony never runs smooth either. The Peace Conference has not ad journed and the fuss over there has not adjourned either. President Wilson has evidently found the Peace Conference worse than a Democratic Congress. Legitimate pleasaro is as necessary to the health as legitimate business is to the support of one's self and family. President Wilson is coming home. He will be glad too when he gets in side of the White House of the nation. It is said that worry kills more people than disease and it must be conceded that this is a true statement of the case. When a woman loves a man, she will do almost anything for him, and when a woman hates a man, she will do almost anything against him. We need help in business and we cannot get it. Hundreds of men are without work and the work is without men. One seems shy of the other. ```markdown ``` Whenever two persons will not stay apart, call in the parson and have the trouble over. They will stay apart then, after a six months' honeymoon. Of course, this is a general rule that has its exceptions. The Government is getting well nigh all of the rich man's money and the groceries and dry-good stores are getting well-nigh all of the poor man's wages. So, in a sense, one is about as bad off as the other. Raly has withdrawn from the Peace Conference. Under the rules, the other Allies cannot make peace with the Germans and Italy cannot make peace with them either. Still, more fighting cannot go on. The returning soldiers are bringing some mighty dismal reports of their experiences in France. They are all glad to get back here and they all say that they will remain here. A man, who has had one wife and she has gotten rid of him looks like the proverbial individual who has been through a threshing machine or who has just come out of a photograph gallery after trying to look pleasant. Soldiers who won smiles from the girls when they went to France are now receiving frowns from the same individuals upon their return to this country. The reason of it is that there are so many soldiers that they are becoming common. For this reason hundreds of the "boys" are now wearing their working clothes. The Covenant of the League of Nations looks mighty good at a long distance, but there are Senators in Washington with short-range guns ready to make a sieve of that document as soon as it gets within shooting distance. --- If you have not gotten religion, you had better hurry up and get it. With the war ever and the Government taxing you, while the necessities of life are as high as St. Paul's church steeple, you will need religion and a plenty of it. --- The German plenipotentiaries are very soon to examine the terms submitted to them by the Allies. It is now becoming painfully apparent that they do not propose to sign only on the dotted line without having a "says" as to what is above that dotted line. Postmaster General Burleson has ordered the return of the cable lines to their former owners and by May 2. 1919 the order will have gone into effect. It is only a matter of a very short time, when the railroads will be turned over to the men, who know how to run them. "And so endeth the first chapter." ```markdown ``` THE DUBOIS DISCLOSURES Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois made some startling disclosures here last Monday night during an address delivered by him upon "The Negro and Africa." He was the originator of the Pan-African Congress and he succeeded in holding a meeting with most of the elected delegates elsewhere than in Paris, due to the fact that the United States of America, through its officials, declined to issue passports to those desiring to attend the meeting and this policy was adopted by Great Britain. As a matter of fact, the Pan-African Congress had "rough-sledding." Premier Clementeau, having given permission for the holding of the meeting kept his word and as a result resolutions were adopted. But Dr. Du Bois told of the racial discriminations in France and declared that he had official documents or rather copies of them to prove that the French people were urged to treat colored men, just as they were treated in this country. They were not to extend to them the usual courtesies and the colored officers were not to be recognized. Returning soldiers had given us this information many months ago, although the fact that the official documents to this effect had been issued was not alleged, and high officials had given the stamp of their approval to this course of action and colored officers were removed from their position. We have read letters to this effect more than a year ago. What we want to know is, how could this take place without the official knowledge of Secretary Baker and Special Assistant Emmett J. Scott, who was presumed to safeguard our interests and see to it that our men got justice? How could all of this have taken place without the official knowledge of Maj. Gen. Pershing, who it is alleged has always been friendly to the colored troopers and who always selected them to accompany him upon dangerous missions? In this we see as through a glass darkly. Dr. Du Bois stated to us that the best way to remedy these conditions was to expose them. This may be true, but we are of the opinion that it will be necessary to go beyond the point of merely exposing these outrages. Charges should be made and presented to the proper officials for investigation. More than this, congressional investigation should be demanded and the men re-sponsible for this kind of treatment should be punished. Celored men gave their lives and their liberty to uphold the flag of this country and this country should uphold and defend the colored men of this country. This brings us back to our original position. We went over there looking after the dark races in other countries without first looking after the interests of the dark races in this country. Our own men were humiliated, reduced in rank and otherwise matreated, while we were or some of us were drafting resolutions in favor of the oppressed of other lands. So far as we have been able to observe, colored soldiers were treated better in Virginia by white Virginians than they were treated by their own white officers in a foreign land. Certainly, those of us who noted the attitude of the friendly white Virginians here, both male and female, will regard with wonder and astonishment the attitude of this military caste, both North and South that so far forgot itself as to let race prejudice figure when the blood of the black man mingled with that of the white one in an effort to make the world free for democracy. But we THE RICHMOND FLAGSTER, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA shall insist that when these men come home that a reckoning be had and that the liberal minded white people who remained behind, sit in judgment upon those erring ones, who forgot that the American flag was sent abroad upon a basis of absolute equality for all who wore the uniform of this Republic and who should ered arms to uphold the just demands of President Woodrow Wilson at Washington. DR. LEWIS REPLIES TO much for the height to which we have attached as for the depth from which we have come." We most heavily share this scintillant. Dr. Johnson advises the Baptists of Virginia to unite or rather he suggests a coalition of the two State bodies, viz., the Baptist General Association of Virginia and the Baptist State Convention. Good advice. Will Dr. Johnson eat his own cooking? Or rather will he assist in bringing to pass the thing which he advises? FRATERNAL COOPERATION I am sure that he is aware that in 1916 at Norfolk, Va., both of the aforesaid organizations held their annual meetings at the same time. At this time a committee upon my recommendation was appointed from each body to consider the advisability of fraternal co-operation between the Baptist General Association and the State Convention. The committee reported favorably bringing in a resolution which was adopted by both bodies stating that such a co-operation was desirable and shall hereafter obtain. The adoption of this resolution was enthusiastically urged by Drrs. W. F. Graham; W. H. Moses; T. H. White; R. H. Bolling, Jr.; Nelson Jordan and President Woods of the Baptist State Convention and Drs. P. F. Morris; A. Blinga, Jr.; Z. D. Lewis; J. E. Joes, A. A. Graham; F. C. Campbell; J. M. Armstead; J. H Gray and G. E. Read of the ablstist General Association of Virginia. Since that time there has been no strife between the brethren. WANT HIM TO OFFER MOTION. Now if Dr. Johnson thinks we ought to go further and have one general State Body let him make the motion that such shall be the case and I will assure him of a second from my side of the house. I would not be in the place of those whom Christ condemned; who put burdens on other mens shoulders that they themselves would not lift with a finger. Now on behalf of the Baptist General Association of Virginia we most cordially invite Dr. Johnson and other members of the State Convention to attend the great Baptist Reunion and Jubilee celebration at Richmond Virginia August 3, 1919. Should they favor us with their presence we will accord to them every courtesy belonging to brethren of the same faith and denomination. A CALL TO THE BALTT- MORE DIVINE. Concluding I would say that when the brethren of the state bodies are ready for a coalition I shall find a place along side of those who may lead in that direction. Intelligent people are led and governed only by their consent. Come down in Virginia and help us Dr. Johnson. Yours very truly, —Z. D. LEWIS, President of the Baptist General Association of Virginia.

Fort Hancuba, Arizona, April 10—the Army and Navy Magazine states that two Lieutenants in the 35th Infantry, white, have received the Distinguished Service Cross for vallantry in action in Nogales, Arizona, on the 27th of August, 1918.

They are some of our men." To obey these orders they had to pass out through a barrage of machine gun and rifle fire, that I am sure was as good if not superior to what the Huns put up over there, but true to traditions, Sorgent Greene led his section, three men, on to the given place.

He yelled out two or three times, "Who is that in there?" but received no reply. H₀ the the₀ asked, "Are there any Tenth Cavalrymen in there?" Receiving no reply he said, "Sergeant Xerxes, those are Mexicans in that house shooting at us. Let us get them. Follow me at intervals of five yards between you." Sergeant Greene was the first to enter that house and there were three Mexicans in there with carbines waiting for his men to enter the trap but the daring nerve of these three followers of Crispus Attucks took all the nerve of the greasers or Mexicans and instead of shooting, they all took to a nearby window. After giving one of them a chunk of lead in the leg, Sergeant Greene got a dose of his own medicine before he could reload his gun. He got about two inches of hot lead in his right shoulder, but he had only one thought and that was to get his men and thanks to his untiring nerve, after being wounded he stood up and shot the man who had shot him, while his other two men were making five hits each on his man. There was a ring of fire all around this house and they found themselves in a pretty bad condition, trying to defend themselves from the mad Mexicans who were coming to avenge their dead comrades, but thanks to the skilled marksmanship of these three men the Mexicans are now resting peacefully in the clay. Sergeant Greene was weak then from loss of blood was told or made to go against his will by Sergeant Xerox, down to the dressing station and get his shoulder attended to, but was sent to the base hospital and was annoyed when the doctor said, "Sergeant, you will have to stay in the hospital." But he said, "Doctor, the fight is not over yet. I am going back and give those Mexicans some more, then I will be back later." At this time Sergeant Greene's temperature was 100 degrees but after the Doctor had assured him that the fight was over, he said, "Well I will stay here until the fight starts and then back to the firing line for me." But as there was no more actual fighting he stayed in the hospital about seven weeks, being nursed by Miss Carrie Headley. Now, if they should not receive the D. S. C., who should? Well, Mr. Scott Mr. Dulloh and other people of influence, why not get together? I hope the nation will give equal rights to all. NATIONAL BAPTIST THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY DOING A GOOD WORK. Rev. A. R. Griggs, Cor. Sec., of the National Baptist Educational Board reports a letter from Dr. I. M. Page, president of Roger Williams University and Dean of the National Baptist Theological Seminary and Bible Training School which shows that the seminary is doing good work this year. Rev. Griggs, through his educational board has kept the Seminary in active operation for three consecutive sessions and has paid up the teachers every month for three years. Through his work and influence the Seminary has become a fixture and has gone down in Baptist history as a real working theological seminary. He reports to this office that more than one hundred and twenty-five students have received benefit through this seminary. He has evaded all controversy about conventional splits and has gone right on working and making sentiment for this institution and helping to educate ministerial students. He is an old student of the Richmond Theological Seminary, was for twenty-five years Superintendent of missions for Texas; was president of the State convention of that state; led and worked up the state Sunday School Convention and also the State B. Y. P. U. work; was for three years president of what is now known as The National Baptist Convention and has visited London, Liverpool, Cambridge and Bedford England and also Paris France.

Jones made its first public appearance on Good Friday night when it rendered Stainer's Cracifixion in the St. Phillips P. E. Church. The chorus showed the results of the intensive training through which it has been put during the closi g rehearsals and performed with artistic skill. The solo work of Dr. R. O. Mundin, Messrs. Matthews and Pike occasioned considerable comment. The instru mentation was ably handled by Mrs. L. L. Stanard while Mrs. Bettie Cousin attended to the business arrangements and also contributed much towards strengthening the weak places in the chorus. The chorus will continue its Tues day night rehearsals at the Army and Navy club and will be the backbone of the sinning groups which will welcome returning colored soldiers. Prof. T. C. Erwin was the speaker at the Community sing on last Sunday. The address was a live with practical suggestions and Prof. Erwin was the recipient of many congratulations at the close of the program. Wednesday night found seventy-five red Circle workers in Camp Lee where they had journeyed to carry on an entertainment to the soldiers in the camp.

A group of fifty-four boys were organized at the Boosters Home on Church Hill during the week and are being given Lee boys program by Messrs. Dahney, Holmes, Smith, S. B. Johnson, Western and Alexander. The Red Circle group under Mrs. Rosa Wood will entertain the Richmond boys at the club on Saturday night. Mrs. Wood announces big preparations for the entertainment which will surpass all others ever given by the group. Soldiers will be the principal speakers at the sing Sunday. "Egypt Land" is the title of the selection which was repeatedly applauded when it was heard for the first time by a Richmond audience at the sing, Prof. Curtis Jordan's orches tra introduced the selection and the condition was the big hit of the occasion.

Wiley pastor) was a grand success, raising $666.75 After paying all the debts and salaries up to the first of May and donating to the pastor a handsome present for his faithful work the church has left in treasure more than $150.00. Rev. Wiley deserves much credit for his intensive zeal and efforts to make this rally a telling success At the close of the Sunday services a motion made by Deacon P. A. Ward to return a vote of thanks to the entire community for its excellent work was carried. At 11:30 A. M. the pulpit was occupied by the Rev. Dr. P. F. Morris of Lynchburg. Dr. Morris discussed very beautifully from the Sub. "Pray er." At the evening services the theme of his discourse was found Luke 16:31— "Believing on Jesus Christ." We are now in the midst of our great revival conducted by Dr. Elridge of Petersburg. BEULAH A. M. E. CHURCH At this writing we are glad to state that we have our pastor back with us for another year. On Wednesday evening April 23rd, we held our first church conference. A goodly number of members were out to co-operate with the pastor, Rev. J. R. Augusus in devising ways and means by which to succeed this new conference year. The majority of the old officers were re-elected and four or five new officers were elected. We had a splendid meeting and all left expressing themselves very much pleased. Sunday was a great and glorious day in the history of Beulah. At 11:30 o'clock at our morning service's large and appreciative audience greeted the pastor. Rev. Augustus preached the last of his series of sermons on "The Seven Words from the Cross." Text: St. Luke 23rd, Chap., 46 verse. "Father into thy hands I commend my spirit." Theme: "The dying testimony of our Lord." The house was filled with the Holy Spirit as our pastor explained the beautiful life of our Lord; who was obedient unto death and who at death because of His faithfulness and sacrificial life was able to leave His spirit in the hands of His heavenly Father. He warned us to be sure to follow in our Mater's footsteps. After the sermon while pastor and congregation sang, "The old time refigion," the doors of the church were opened; and sister Louisa Marshall and brother James Gee joined our Zion. We all joyfully and heartily greeted them after which a splendid offering was lifted. At 3:30 P. M. the Junior Leagues held a lively meeting. The topic was interesting and enjoyed by all present. The Juniors promised the Superintendent Mrs. M. J. Augustus to da a greater work this year. At night we again listened to an interesting discourse from Psalm 51-13th verse. "Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee." We are indeed happy for the success of this day.
