VOLUME XXVII
Large Number Masons Met
AMERICUS ENLIVENED BY REPRESENTATIVES FROM ALL PARTS OF GEORGIA.
Helpful Legislation—True Masonic Spirit Pervades the Meeting—Progress and Improvement Shown on Every Hand.
The forty-third annual communication of the Most Worshipful Union Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons was held in Americus, June 11-12.
Representatives from all parts of the State representing thousands of loyal Masons were present and lent aid in legislating for the future progress of the Order. The personel of the Grand Lodge was inspiring, there being in attendance men in every walk of life. From the moment of calling to order to the closing rapt attention was paid by every representative. The excellent decorum kept by this very large delegation and the great respect shown the Grand Master were inspiring to thinkers and those who have the best interest of the race at heart.
There was no idle discussion nor flow of oratory apparent in other organizations, it was solid business accomplished in a Masonic manner by those who have been drinking deep at the Masonic tree of knowledge.
Immediately after the appointment of the committee on credentials and report on same, the Grand Lodge was properly opened. The minutes of the last Grand Communication were approved. Special committees were appointed, and after important announcements the hour of refreshments was announced.
At the afternoon communication Grand Master Butler delivered a most excellent report touching every phase of the work and many civic and health topics, which was received with close attention by the brethren. This report of the Grand Master is always looked forward to with much interest by the brethren. The report of the Grand Secretary was the best in point of finance ever reported. The Grand Treasurer's report tallied with the former.
Secretary and Treasurer W. C. Thomas of the Relief Department rendered a report bristling with facts that made every brother feel good. His report showed the department to be in a healthy condition, with a large balance on hand and thousands of dollars have been paid in a charitable manner. His report was received with much acclaim.
The Secretary of the Orphan Home Fund, Prof. W. H. Spencer, reported a larger collection than ever. Prof. Spencer is known as the "Orphan Boy" of the Grand Lodge, and for years he has devoted much labor to this department.
The reports of all these officers were audited and the committees commended them for their labor.
The committee on Grand Master's report also commended him for his work.
The election was held and the officers were unanimously elected as follows:
H. R. Butler, M.D., M. W. Grand Master.
A. L. Felton, R. W. Grand Senior Warden.
J. W. Weston, R. W. Grand Junior Warden.
G. L. Bowen, R. W. Grand Treasurer.
Sol. C. Johnson, R. W. Grand Secretary.
W. C. Thomas, R. W. Secretary-Treasurer M. R. S.
W. H. Spencer, R. W. Secretary W. & O. H. Wednesday morning was devoted to reports of the various committees, these proving conclusively the great progress of the jurisdiction.
Interspersed between these reports were encouraging talks or conferences with the representatives of the various Lodges. These brethren gave glowing accounts of their work. They show that a large per cent. of their members are property holders and among the best citizens of their respective localities, and above all that they are living such lives and making such progress as justly become Masons.

NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF TEACHERS IN COLORED SCHOOLS
To Meet In Chattanooga'Next Month-Attendance Promises To Be Very Large.
In every section of the country great preparations are being made for attending the National Association of teachers in colored schools which holds its 9th annual session in Chattanooga, Tenn., July 24th to 26th.
Chairman of the Executive Committee, Mr. M. W. Dogan and Pres. W. T. B. Williams have arranged a program from Wednesday, 24th to Sunday afternoon, 28th.
As in former years Sunday will be Educational Day through the city of Chattanooga. Some of the best educators will speak in all churches at the 11 o'clock services; while at three o'clock a great educational mass meeting will be held at the City Auditorium where a few of the best speakers and some of the best singers to be had by any people will constitute the program. As in St. Louis last year, it is expected that many thousands of people will gather in the Chattanooga Auditorium to hear and cheer the closing notes of the 9th session, Sunday, July 28th.
Very low reduced round trip rates have been secured on all railroads east of the Mississippi river Persons from other sections will find it possible to secure summer tourist rates to Chattanooga and vicinity.
Already there is the assurance of more than a thousand delegates at the Chattanooga meeting.
TAFT FORCES IN CONTROL
National Convention Met in Chicago
The National Republican Convention met in Chicago on Tuesday. Senator Root was elected temporary Chairman over Gov. McGovern by a big majority.
The Roosevelt force was completely defeated.
The outlook is for Taft's nomination.
Roosevelt threatened to bolt, but the bluff did not take. It is reported that he will form a progressive party.
Taft will be nominated and elected the next President. All loyal Republicans will stick to the nominee.
nificent facts of all was the polling of the large number of representatives of the various Lodges and among them were found only twenty-nine who did not own their own home or property. One brother very consciously stood who was paying on a home but lacked only a few dollars finishing in order to get his title. This is a remarkable showing for such a large gathering, and proves that Masonry is doing much in encouraging its members to become not only loyal citizens, but tax paying citizens. These twenty-nine brothers who did not own their home were admonished to start at once along this line. It has been proven that the best and most loyal Masons are those who are taxpayers.
The report of the Trustees of the Orphan Home was gratifying, showing marked improvement in its affairs. Much good is being accomplished there in the educating and training of the orphan boys and girls.
All of the business of the Grand Lodge was transacted in two days. There was no rushing, every brother who desired had his full say. The basis of all was the excellent spirit and the love displayed in all of the proceedings.
This communication of the Grand Lodge was the best ever held, and much inspiration for good was received.
The brethren all left for their several Lodges with the intention of improving their Lodges along every proper lines, and rendering reports next year in accordance with the same.
The following are the remaining officers of the Grand Lodge:
R. W., J. H. Walker, Deputy Grand Master.
W., L. A. Townsley, D.D., Grand Chaplain.
W., J. A. Grant, Grand Lecturer.

CARNEGIE LIBRARY CONCERT AT THEATRE MONDAY NIGHT
Advance Sale of Tickets Heavy Brilliant Program To Be Presented-The Greatest Event of Recent Years
Judging from present indications the concert to be given by the Negroes of the city at The Savannah Theater this coming Monday night for the purpose of raising funds to purchase a site for the Carnegie library will be attended by an immense crowd.
On every side the one topic of discussion which is interesting the Negroes this week is the concert of Monday night and enthusiasm is at a very high pitch. It is indeed difficult to recall any affair of recent years which has been so thoroughly advertised in so short a time as has been this concert; even in the remotest parts of the city, the people seem to be manifesting much interest in the affair.
The advance sale of tickets has been very heavy, in fact so great has been the demand for seats that Mr. Chas. A. R. McDowell, who is at the head of the affair, has been experiencing some difficulty in keeping the various places where tickets on sale supplied.
The program which will be presented at this concert is one of the most attractive that Savannahians have ever had the pleasure of listening to. On it will appear some of the best talent which is to be found in the country.
The affair is to be the greatest social event of recent years and the house will doubtless be packed. Every one appreciates the worthy cause for which the concert is being given and many have purchased tickets to help the movement along even though they will not be able to attend
The admission will be as follows: Orchestra 50 cents, Balcony 35 cents, Gallery 25 cents. The upper boxes seating four persons each will be sold at $4.00 each. The lower boxes seating six persons each will be sold at $6.00. Boxes may be secured on application to Mr. Charles McDowell. Tribune Building.
Tickets, on sale, West side: Young Bros-, 36th and Burroughs; Savannah Tribune; Savannah Pharmacy, Colored Millinery Store; Young Brothers, Williams Building. East Side, McFall's, East Broad and Gwinnett; Public Library, Price and Hartridge; Simmon's, Harris and East Broad, Freeman's, Perry and Randolph.
Excellent Exercises of Charity Hospital
AMONG THE BEST AND MOST INTERESTING IN HISTORY OF SCHOOL
Addresses Very Commendable
—Music Particularly Pleasing
—Crowd not as Large as Exercises Warranted—Three Graduates
The seventeenth annual commencement exercises of Charity Hospital Training School for Nurses took place Wednesday evening at eight thirty o'clock at St. Philip Monumental A. M. E. Church.
The exercises were among the most enjoyable ever held in this city and were by all means the most interesting and commendable held by this school in recent years. Every feature of the program was thoroughly enjoyed and brought forth laud applause. The musical numbers on the program were all very pleasingly rendered. They were all far above the average. Each received a laud round of applause. The crowd which was present was not as large as the exercises warranted and yet those who were there were so thoroughly enthused over the exercises that the crowd seemed many times its real size.
There were three graduates, one of whom read a paper. They were Mrs. Ellen Howard Holmes, Miss Etta Mae Hughes and Miss Leila L. Moore.
The principal speakers of the evening were Dr. W. A. Harris and Rev. L. A. Townsley. Dr. Harris in his talk reviewed the work of the hospital from its beginning and spoke of its present needs and what it may accomplish in the future with the liberal support of the Negroes of the city.
Rev. Townsley took for his subject "The Trained Nurse" and his address was one of the most scholarly listened to by a Savannah audience for many a day. His talk consumed about twenty minutes every second of which was filled with good wholesome advice. He treated his subject first from a historical standpoint, second he touched upon the sphere of the profession, third, the equipment which the profession demands of its representatives as a guarantee of their success, and fourth the pledges which the profession makes. In summing up his talk to the graduating class Rev. Townsley said:
"The profession which you have chosen will lead you into the worlds' best families, places upon you its greatest responsibilities and conditions distressing and perplexing, but your skill and training will be fully equal to each and every occasion.

DOCTORS LEE AND KING BUY
VALUABLE PROPERTY ON
WEST BROAD STREET
To Offer Newly Acquired Property to Lee Chemical Company-Will Remodel Building;
One of the most important real estate deals in recent months affecting the Negroes of the city was that of last week put through by Mr. G. H. Bowen when Doctors M. O. Lee and J. H. King of Albany, Ga., acquired through the Chatham Improvement Company the improved property located at the corner of West Broad and Maple street lane. The property has a frontage of fifty feet on West Broad street extending on Maple lane about one hundred feet. There is at present a two-story tenement house on the property and it is the purpose of the purchasers to remodel this property making stores on the ground floor with living apartments above.
It is understood that the property will be offered to the Lee Chemical Company, of which Doctors Lee and King are directors and in the event it is accepted the Savannah Pharmacy, the local drug store owned by this company which is now situated at Gwinnett lane and West Broad street will occupy the corner store.
The price which the property sold for is said to be in the neighborhood of fifteen thousand dollars.

Great Negro Institution Planned.
Great Negro Institution Planned.
TO BE ERECTED AT CENTRAL PARK ON WHITE BLUFF ROAD
African Methodist Episcopal Church Behind Movement—School to Be Known as Central Park Normal and Industrial Institute
One of the largest projects which has been started by the Negroes of Georgia, in fact in the South, in the last decade, is the forming and the organizing by the trustees, lot owners and well-wishers of the Central Park Normal and Industrial Institute, a permanent organization for the building and conducting the above named school.
This institution will not only train the head but it will also train the hand, the mind and give a business and religious training, along different lines than those pursued by other schools in this part of the country. Some of the leading white and colored citizens in Savannah have not only shown their interest by their moral support, but have subscribed substantial sums and many have paid on their subscriptions.
More than 100 representative Negro men and women met Wednesday morning at St. Philip Monumental A. M. E. Church, presided over Rev. B. S. Hannah, Presiding Elder Savannah District to get the plans under way. The Rev. R. H. Singleton who has been engaged for the last years in arousing interest in the proposed institute, reported the progress that has been made.
The site that has been selected includes 22 acres on the White Bluff Road, an extension of Bull street in what is known as Central Park A charter has been granted by the Superior Court of Chatham County and J. A. Lankford the noted Negro architect and mechanical engineer has designed a beautiful structure for the central building which will be erected on this site in the near future, as the scope of the work demands it. More than 350 people have shown their interest in this great work, purchasing from one to seven lots each, surrounding this institution, from the Central Park Land Corporation.
Rev, R. H. Singleton, the chief promoter of this scheme, has just returned from a meeting of the General Board of Trustees of Morris Brown University, Atlanta Ga. He succeeded in having Central Park Normal and Industrial Institute form a part of the University system, under the educational department of the A. M. E. Church, Bishop Flipper, Chancellor.
At this great meeting more than $1700.00 was subscribed and quite a sum was paid in cash on account thereof. 100 male trustees and as many women as auxiliaries were elected. The building committee which consists of the architect and the executive board were instructed to proceed with the erection of the first-building, to be ready for the fall term. Another Savannah Boy Makes Good
Mr. Charles G. Middleton received his diploma this week from the University of Michigan. He has been matriculating in the Medical department there for a number of years and was among the few colored students of that University. Dr. Middleton was always studious and applied himself energetically to his studies. He is the eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. L. G. Middleton of this city. It is not known where he will locate, but being a Savannah young man, there is no better field than at home and it is assured that should he locate here he will make good. Dr. Middleton has the best wishes of all his friends.
We are delighted to see the following students return home from school to spend there vacation: Messrs. J. C. Fisher, J. W. Fisher, Jr., I. J. White, Jr., L. A. Marshall and Miss Alberta Lane.
Miss Matilda Meeks has closed out her school at Register, Ga., and is home to spend the summer.

Exposition of Christian Institution and an Abhorious Speaker, 36-39 Jesus received an invitation to dinner from an unusual quarton, a Pharisee (Ch. 13:17, 14:1). The Pharisee desired to study Jesus, I Jesus, usually went, to the houses to which He was asked, and always gods today! He received scant courtesy from the Pharisee, the usual social amenities, were forgotten (vs. 44:46). An unexpected and unwelcome guest came, into the Pharisee's home, an abandoned woman. Nothing could have induced her to enter that home under ordinary circumstances, but Jesus drew her, as he always draws sinners. She heard him say that very day: "Come unto me, allize that labor and are heavy laden" (Matt. 11:28), and that certainly meant her. The Phariseo was much displeased, but Jesus was greatly pleased, to have her come (ch. 5:30-32). She brought a box of costly ointment with her. In her love to her new-found friend and Saviour, she wished to do something for him. As soon as she reached the feet of Jesus, she burst into tears of penitence and love. It is good for sinners to weep (Ps. 51:17; Joel 2:12, 13). It was love that brought this woman to repentance (cf. Ro. 2:4). Pharisaic treatment would never have accomplished it! According to the Pharisee's notion, righteousness is shown by drawing away from all contact with sinners, but in Christ's method righteousness is shown by winning the dinner from sin to righteousness:
II. A Critic Rebuked and a Pentient Commended, 40-46. Jesus quickly proved to the supercilious Pharisee that he could read hearts by reading hits. He told the Pharisee he had something to say to him, while the Pharisee had fancied he ought to say something severe to the woman. He showed the Pharisee 'that he' was debtor as well as the woman, that there was no essential difference between them (Ro. 3:22,23). The Pharisee, was like the woman in another respect, he 'had nothing to pay.' By representing himself as creditor, of both the Pharisee and 'woman, Jesus taught' that 'all sin was against himself; i.e., that he was 'God' (Ps. 51:4). The Pharisee had never dreamed that he was truly a lost sinner, with

COME OUT.

"Come out, come out from bed and sleep.
Come out, come out, and take a peep
Upon the earth and heavens deep,
Come out, both one and all."
nothing he could do to satisfy God, as the abandoned woman was. Jesus forgives sinners freely, when they have nothing to pay, but before they enjoy that forgiveness they must take their rightful place, pardon him (Psalm 11:13, 15). Jesus closes his pardon with a question (Psalm 11:16), then shows the question that if the woman be deep
a greater sinner in the past, she had now become a more loving saint in the present. Before there can be intense love for the Saviour there must be a deep sense of the enormity of the sins he has forgiven. Those forms of Christianity that minimize sin and have little to say of pardon never produce ardent love for Christ; Jesus put a second question to Simon: "Jesus thou this woman?" He did not really see her. All he saw was a vile outcast; Jesus, saw a, redeemed woman and, a great lover! In the contrast Jesus, drew 'between Sinion' and the woman he despised, the woman appears in far the better light. Thus God looks at the cold, morallist and the redeemed outcast now filled with intense love to the Redeemer. Jesus is far better pleased with the loving penitents, deep though they may have been in sin, than with the Simons.
III. Forgiveness, Love, Peace, 47-50. Jesus said her great love proved she was a forgiven sinner. It was not that she was forgiven because she loved—her faith saved her (v. 50)—but her sense of sins forgiven led to this great love, and so her great love was proof that her sins had been forgiven. Are we proving that our sins are forgiven by loving much? Jesus did not gloss over her sins. He is told "holy to minimize sin." "Her sins," which are many," was his very searching word. But then he turns to the woman with that wondrous word of comfort and blessing. "Thy sins are forgiven." That woman had a right to go out and say, "I know my sins are to give." She had the best possible proof of it, the sure word of him, not one word of whom shall ever fall (Matt. 24:15). Every believer in Christ has the same word that his sins are forgiven (Acts 13:38, 39). It would not have been presumption for her to say, "If know my sins are forgiven." It would have been presumption, for her to doubt it. It was, not, a question of what she felt, but what Jesus said. It was a significant question the hearers asked, "Who is this that forgiveth sins?" The answer is plain, the Son of God; faith had saved her. Her faith was simply this, that Jesus could and would forgive her sins. This is saving faith. Its foundation was his own word (Matt. 11:23). Being saved she went "into peace." There is no other road into peace but simple faith in Jesus for salvation (Ro. 5:1).
Leading Questions.—What proofs are here in this lesson of the Delty of Jesus? What is his attitude toward sinners? How is forgiveness of sins obtained? What is the proof that our sins are forgiven? What is the ground of our assurance that our sins are forgiven? What is saving faith? What are the results of faith? What were the seven steps heavenward which the woman took?

LOVE'S JOURNEY!
How many worlds away, is love,
That it is oft so long.
In journeying to the hearts that wait
Its whisper and its song to
In April it is very near,
And nearer still, in May.
But yet for many an latching heart
It seems so far away.
How many dawns and many nights
Has it been traveling here;
From star to star and step to step
Of sphere and rolling sphere.
Its music lit the robin's note
Outside my window then;
But, lo, in long lost leagues of time
It seems to soar again!
How many hearts beside a gate
Of lonesomeness must stand
In all the bitter tears of fate
Era it comes over the land!
How many regions near or far
Must it still travel through
Before it tells me where you are
And lights me, love, to you!

The fragrant air makes joy complete;
Each little bud some joy complete;

When by your side I chance to be,
Each moment, then, is dear to me.

STUDENTS AT TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE MAKE INDUSTRY A HABIT AND ATTAIN HIGH STANDARDS OF LIVING.
Tuskegee, Ala.—Industry is the spirit of Tuskegee University, which is its system of government. From the moment the rising whistle blows at five o'clock until the "lights out" bell sounds at night, every moment of the day attains the highest point in its purpose. The keges are the most important part of the institution, as they are the setting for extra tasks, and by giving them a work to do. The purpose of the institution is to facilitate the seminaries the principle that a parish is no more work than a school is a punishment, for the work would be an insistence.

Visitors rarely fail to comment upon the fable manners of the students. At Tuskegee table manners are as much the manners of the students as is work in the shops or recitations in the classrooms. The man at the head of the table is the man at the head of a stairway each spindle made of the grafting material of the meat spearing and the bread harpooning that is a far from unusual feature of the school. The students are served, and the rule of the school is that each shall eat everything that is placed upon his plate without remarks upon the cooking, if, indeed, such averse remarks could be made. The food comes fresh from the institute farm, raised by the students, cooked by the students, served by the students and eaten by the students, and the variety of edibles placed on the table serves as another object lesson of the benefits derived from skillful labor on the soil. The student who goes out from Tuskegee is an accustomed to an excellent table, that, if a farmer, he, at once prepares to raise all the vegetables in their season, his farm becomes an object lesson for the surrounding community and gradually leads to a higher standard of living, which is the great object sought. For Tuskegee's real problem is nory, so much to educate a few thousand, boys and girls, as to change conditions among the masses, of the negro people.
Three or four years ago the University of Indiana started to educate the students in its technical courses by providing alternate days for theory and practice, one day being spent in the classroom and the next day in a real factory, where the students would not only learn how to build things, but would have the inspiration coming from the building of things actually to be used. This idea created a furore in the educational world; it was acclaimed as the newest and most advanced idea in technical education. Booker Washington, however, has been applying that idea at Tuskegee for the last thirty years. The students spend one day in the classroom, and one day on the farm or in the shops, where they turn out products that are to be used.
The grea cry among the great technical colleges has been that in the practice work the students build things that are torn down as soon as they are constructed. The energizing force that comes from creating something that is to be utilized is lacking. What inspiration is there in building a model bridge, when the student knows it is going to be, form down as soon as the last boat is in place? Educators in technical institutions have lamented this loudly.

Whenever a poor student arrives he works during the day and studies at night, and whatever he earns in excess of the board is added to his credit in the bank. The same as he has saved enough in enters the day school, he publishes in the day school attend and classroom books these days a week, and the other three days they spend in the shop, the expenses of day students allow the cost of nothing and what can be paid is about $45 or $50 for the nine months the school. Most of the pupils earn all their expenses. The teaching in the academic department, which has as its advanced in work as the second seat of a northern high school minus the languages, is done by a faculty of 50 college, graduates, many of them from reading universities of the country. The male pupils form two battalions, one of four companies of eight men, each containing the disabled students, the other of five companies of 90 men, each made up from a day student. Dills and Insplants take more every day in the training day, students being educated in the academy, which dull on intellectual manpower upon their classes of discipline and serious enough to be required for the university.
The dairy herd contains 227 head of cattle, breeders, yearlings and calves, with 105 milch cows "at the path". The farm also has 562, hogs, and 145 horses, mules and colts, while the poultry yard contains 3,000 fowls. The farm work is carried on by 228 students, 40 hired men and 18 instructors.
Last year 632 tone of enslage, 12,000 bushels of sweet, potatoes, 3,500 bushels of corn and 2,650 bushels of oats were grown on the general farm, while the truck garden yielded 115,453 pounds of greens, 1,116 dozen bunches of lettuce, 465 bushels of onions, 3,576 watermelons, 355 bushels of beans, 53 bushels of beets, 733 bushels of tomatoes, 321 bushels of rutabagas, 3,150 dozen ears of corn/green beans, 2,664 melons and cantaloupes, 47 bushels of white pointets and 258 bushels of peas—this enumeration, being given as an indication of the variety of the table, at Tuskegee and the manner in which the pupils are being saturated in one of the many ideas of Tuskegee that one indication of civilization is a variety of food products.
"One of God's objects in surrounding us with vegetables, with grain, berries and flowers," says Booker Washington, "is to help us to make our bodies better fitted for the uses of life, to make our bodies stronger, to make them more healthful. When I go to church and hear people preach for hours on all kinds of subjects, especially in country districts, where the soil is fitted for growing all kinds of vegetables, all kinds of fowl, how much I wish the minister would take a few hours and teach the people how to fill their bodies with some of the beautiful things with which nature has surrounded them."
THE BEST SCARECROW.
As the best scarecrow is a, dead crow, hung up where other crows can see it, it is well to know how to catch the crow, which is a very wary bird. One way that is often successful is to take the chilled or stale eggs from an abandoned sitting, hen's nest, and make an artificial nest out in the field somewhere so that the crows can see it as they fly over. Around the nest in the grass place, two, or three set steel traps. The crow will allight near the nest to investigate the eggs as to their eating qualities, and will usually step into the traps, which should be concealed under some light grass or earth.
Jigsworth tells me Mrs. Jigsworth is thinking very seriously of going to Europe. I dare say, her thinking about it doesn't make her half as serious as if does Jigsworth.
THINGS SEEN IN THE SHOPS.
New baskets for bonbons are in dull rose color. One is shown in the shape of a small grand plano. A paper box for candies is in the same rose tint, decorated with magellan blossoms, with pink patties. Either baskets are bounn hold in three grids of candy.
The nowest twelfth slippers have embroidered beets. Small spangled ornament in the place of buckles, for these slippers are in the shape of a four-winged butterfly, and 'aby' are of the same color as the slipper, unless of gold. Both these ornamental additions tend to make the foot large and gaudy, however.
Many of the shops are showing stiff little neck bows of variegated ribbon, or velvet ribbon. These are worn either at the front of the collar, or at the side. Their price is about fifty cents.
Among the Easter novelties is a large nest or straw for bonbons; this is decorated with a few twigs of natural wood, against which are wraps of wheat. A stuffed real chicken of full size is mounted on the side of the basket with spread wings. Another nest of straw made for a bonbon basket is not so large, and is set into a mass of natural twigs, twined about with artificial roses. Both these novelties are French.
Very charming are the newest hatskins, which are rosettes of tiny silk flowers of exquisite fashioning, or of fruit. With some of these are mingled wren ruffles of valenciennes lace.
For the boudoir there are to be found perfectly plain moire velour picture frames. The opening for the picture is oval, and the frame itself almost square. Those come in every color and the most exquisite shades. Their cost is $2.50 each.
Other frames are shown in the imitation ivory known as ivortus. They have inlaid a semi-conventional pattern of forget-me-nots in blue. One of the more elaborate frames, is French gilt with china flowers in entire relief.
Seed pearl jewelry is shown in great quantities, and some of the ornaments are bringing large prices, as much as $65 for a brooch. Great differences are to be noted in the designs; and they require careful selection.
Too odd to be pretty are the all-pink linen handkerchiefs with narrow dark red hemstitched border and red initials, in fact, very few, of the colored handkerchiefs are attractive this spring; the patterns show so little daintiness.
Many of the wraps and gowns of the season are edged or trimmed with taller ruching. This is called "shirring." It comes ready to add to the gown and costs 65 cents a yard for the width most in use. As it is easily renewed when it gets to have a worn appearance, and is not expensive, it should be in favor, with the woman who makes her own gowns.
A new pottery called Copenhagen Art, Palene initiates, the old Italian Majolica, but has not the fascination of the Italian ware in that it is too regular in its art decorations. The shapes in which it is shown are largely the old Italian shapes, and it will probably be a favorite selection for gifts with those looking for cozy articles.
Laces are always, of interest to every woman, though there are wide differences in styles at present, which call for much consideration when the moment of purchase arrives. The Baby Irish, which was formerly an extravagance, is so reasonable how that it is almost common. Insertion three-fourths of an inch wide, for instance, with the roses in relief, is but 36 cents a yard, while scallop edging of the same lace; allowing 16 scallops to the yard, is but 75 cents.
Ratine insertion, which is the exceedingly coarse, heavy lace, ranges from 60 cents to $3.50 a yard; this latter is distinctly for the gowns of women and not for young girls.
The girl who expects to trim her own summer hat will find that she can purchase for less than $2 a ready-made bow of ribbon of sufficient size and good fashion to be the only needed trimming. These may be found at the ribbon counter of any of the large stores.
NAPOLI MACARONI.
Cut four thin slices of bacon into small pieces, try out and strain. Set into a saucepan. Add three-fourths can of tomatoes (quart capacity), one sliced onion, one-fourth teaspoonful, each, of mace and allspice, one-eighth teaspoonful of cayenne and a bit of bay leaf, Bring to the boiling point, slimmer one hour and, season with salt and pepper. Add cooked macaroni cut into two-inch pieces, (of which there should be two cupfuls), and cook until macaroni is thoroughly heated. Berve very hot. Spbghetti may be used in place of macaroni for this dish.
Beat six eggs without separating the whites and yolks. Add a scant, teaspoonful of salt, a dash of pepper, a teaspoonful of chopped parsley, twenty drops of onion juice and one cup and a half of rich milk. Mix thoroughly, and pour into wall-huttered timbale molds. Cook, set on folds of paper, (burrowed, by hot water, until the centers are firm) Turn from the molds-upon a hot platter and, surfloor with bread sance, // // //

"REMEMBER, GIRLS."
A flippant girl is the pet aversion of men; a witty one their delight. To have a pedigree is good, but a personality is better.
A "Greek god" invariably demands a pedestal. Better wed a man.
Move peacefully long into the atmosphere.
Be more eager to demonstrate your red than your blue blues.
Who *bāxāa* *hōrī* *lōverī* *has* *already*
lost him
"Dad" is about this best 'ball' in
impulsive girl can have. It is
moderately safe to follow an
accredited leader. Nonentitlement, power
lead.
Hyper-sensitiveness is about the
worst alliment that could afflict any
aspirant for social popularity.
Men wait for the cue before they presume to be flippant.
To show temper toward another girl who attracts your rightful knight is to damage your cause.
It is not enough to control your tongue; command your face also.
An inordinate love of praise is the beginning of evil.
The palm of fate is to be read neither by charlatan nor prayer.
Between the malden who goes in for outdoor sports and the "sporty girl" yaars about three generations.
"Admity" has; become a word that self-respecting girls avoid.
Envy no one. Destiny plays no favorites. The one you envy may have greater reason to envy you.
A giggle at the wrong moment has ruined many a spotless reputation. Be respectful, but know how to no one, if you crave respect. An adaptive girl wins admiration, but an "easy one" evokes contempt. Gentlewomen are at some points, to be gracious to servants.
Dignity is acquired through a same valuation of one's self and a fellow measure of appreciation of others. 1919ff
The personal note is always being struck by the girl of ordinary mind. The ability to look cool, though boiling within, is envyful.
Common sense' 'lèô noi' 'gitterink'
charm, but it is a 'gold imme to its pos-
seser.' -Mmna: Thomas 'Antrim/'-Hu
Philadelphia: Record.
One, cupful, of beans, two, cupfuls, of water (for soaking), one small onion, one medium-sized potato, two tablespoonfuls of salt, pepper to taste; water as needed.
Soak beans, over night in two cups/fulls of water; in the morning pour off if there is any water left, measure the beans/(they will have expanded about two and one-half times, their original bulk), and same amount of water, the potato, put into small cubes, add, minced onion, and holl about five hours or until tender. When ready, to serve add the butter and seasoning. If too thick a little more water can be added. Many like a little vinegar in beef soup, so serve that to the addd'd taste by each recording to taste. This soup can be run through press and served-like peas as a purée. A ninth of haking-soda hastens the process of softening, beans or peas, but if you wish beans to retain shape it is best to omit this, and just boil longer.
EPIGRAMS.
Many are called, but few want to get up. Love would last longer if it really were blind.
Why is it that a reformer seldom begins on himself?
If a man has sense his dollars will take care of themselves.
When counting his blessings a man seldom includes his poor relations.
But the beauty that is only skin deep is better than the kind that rubs off.
The faith of the average man wouldn't move a mole hill, much less a mountain.
A square deal is all a man wants, but he likes to be the judge of its squareness.
There may be plenty of happiness in slight, but distance doesn't lend enchantment to the view.
To every 12 pounds of meat, take three tablespoonfuls of salt, three of black pepper, six of powdered, sage and one tablespoonful of red pepper. Grind the meat through the mill, then mix in the seasoning thoroughly. Let stand half an hour, then grind again, stuff and hang up in a dry, cool place. After they hang a week or ten days, or until the skins are dry, take down, rub, well with corn meal and place in a wooden box with brown paper between each layer. Sausage may also be kept fresh if fried, placed in jars and covered with the drippings. If not sufficient make up the defluidity with melted lard. Keep the jar well covered in a cool place.

SATURDAY JUNE 22ND, 1912
All honor to the Georgia colored delegates at Chicago. They are sticking like men to their pledge. Col. "Link" Johnson has proven to be a loyal leader and a mighty fighter.
The plea was made that the Colored Republicans of the south at the recent convention would not stick to their instructions, that they could be bought for a consideration. Facts are to the contrary. It seems from reports that only white delegates have gone back on their instructions.
The annual vacation season with all of its various avenues of pleasure is now opened to us. Outings of one kind or another, in addition to other forms of amusements will be indulged in very largely by our people from time to time during the next few months. And this is as it should be, since it is an established fact, beyond cavil, that an occasional pause from the busy marts of life is necessary for the preservation of one's health and happiness. However, believing as we do that an over indulgence in any one thing is bad and that it is our bounden duty as a moulder of public opinion and dispencer of good sound advice, to sound a note of warning whenever the occasion demands it, we do not this time hesitate to warn our people against the dangers of extravagance in pleasurable pursuits during this season of the year. It requires no effort on one's part to recall the hard times and severity of the past winter when the high cost of food stuffs and the severity of the weather made it difficult for a large number of our people to make ends meet. Shortly, another winter with all of its attendant hardships, will be upon us. And who can youthsafe to say, that the problems of living will not be as difficult of solution then as they were before? Taking it for granted then that life with all of its meaning will be the same to us in the future as it has been in the past, is it not well for us to pause in our mad rush for pleasure and reflect upon the advisability of laying aside some of our earnings of the summer for future needs? Our advice then to our people at this time is that a moderate participation in pleasurable pursuits should be indulged in at this season of the year. Our people must realize that five or six dollars spent three, four or five times during a season in the preparation of a picnic basket, will aggregate a larger sum than some of them can conveniently spare at one period. Hence a deprivation of some of the necessities of life when the hardest seasons of the year comes upon us. Let the proverbial, "Make hay while the sun shines" be our motto during the vacation season and let us all in the enjoyments of the summer months see to it that an over indulgence in pleasure had at the expense of our future upkeep and happiness cannot be placed at our doors.
Through our columns the attention of our people has been called from time to time to the apparent, indifference on the part of some of the parents of our boys and girls of tender ages in the supervision of their street hours. It is no uncommon sight to observe numbers of our boys and girls of public school age and others under maturity, roaming our streets at night, sometimes standing on street corners and at other times floating along, as it were, "with the crowd," from one place to the other with no set purpose or destination in view. Now in this age when divers amusement places (most times questionable) are in operation it requires little effort on our part to appreciate the hard and difficult problems which the rearing of the child brings to each parent, we realize fully how diffi-
cult it is for parents to 'keep tab' at all times on their children. To do this necessitates not only work and worry, but constant, unceasing watchfulness. But is it not a fact that it is worth the while? Turn a child to the streets while he is in the plastic age and allow him to roam and select his company or companions from the habitues of the street corners and dens of vice, sometimes called amusement places, and the time will not be long when he will be moulded and fashioned into a form that will be 'at home' in such company and such places. If ever the adage, 'Eternal vigilence is the price of happiness' comes home with striking forcefulness to those of us of parental care, it is at the present time. A few more days and the doors of our public schools will be closed, then hundreds of our boys and girls of tender age will cease to be under the helpful guiding influence of their teachers for several hours during the day and become the sole words of the parents. What shall I do along the line of providing or securing some lucrative and beneficial employment for my child during the summer months in order that he may develop as I would like to have him, should be the question uppermost in the mind of each parent at this time. Each parent should see to it that every effort is extended by him to place around his boy or girl the proper safeguards that will insure his development into a strong and useful man or woman. The Tribune sincerely hopes that each parent will consider this matter seriously and begin to take steps now, that will result in the keeping of his child under his protecting care and guidance. Keep your boys and girls off the streets at unreasonable hours, away from evil companions and out of the dens of iniquity and the time will come you will be proud of them.
An Open Letter To The Colored Citizens of Savannah.
There will be given at the Savannah Theater next Monday night an entertainment for the purpose of buying a lot for the Colored Public Library. This is a matter that interests vitally every colored citizen of Savannah. Mr. Carnege has agreed to give $12,000.00 with which to put up the Library building. The City Council of Savannah has agreed to give $100.00 a month for its support and maintenance forever. The colored citizens of Savannah are called on to donate a lot on which to put this building, and that is all; therefore, you see that it is thoroughly up to the colored citizens of Savannah to see to it that this entertainment next Monday night is thoroughly a success in every particular.
It is the hope of Mr. McDowell who has gone ahead on his own responsibility and worked up this entertainment, to sell 6,000 tickets to the friends of the cause in Savannah. It must be done, and to do this every Colored man and woman in Savannah is called on to buy at least one ticket and therefore in this small way show your interest in the enterprise. The entertainment is worthy, the cause for which the entertainment is given is worthy and noble and it is decidedly up to the Negroes of Savannah to give their undivided and loyal support. The eyes of the whole country are on you to see what you are going to do. Let us, of the city of Savannah, do as we have always done: Prove ourselves equal to, and worthy of the occasion.

On last Sunday night, Evangelist J. W. Manis, of the Beacon Light Gospel Tent, gave an inspiring and interesting lecture. He chose for his subject, "The Hole in the Wall." The subject and treatment were very appropriate. So full of facts and inspiration was his sermon until he held his hearers spell bound. The seating capacity was well taxed.

Rev. B. Molette, Pastor of St. Peter's Baptist Church Baptises 52 Happy Converts.
Permit me through the widely circulated columns of your popular journal to say that Sunday June 16th was a red letter day in the history of the Baptists of Waycross. Never before in the history of this swiftly growing city has there been such a large baptism from any colored church as was witnessed at St. Peter's Baptist church, Rev. B. Molette pastor. As a result of a three weeks' meeting, fifty two happy souls were buried within baptism. The large edifice was not able to hold the great crowds who poured in from every part of the city to hear the doctrinal sermon by the pastor, and see the candidates baptized; more than one thousand were present. St. Peters has set an example for the other baptist churches in this city. When Jesus Christ controls a church it always thrives. It buds and blossoms and bears fruit to the honor and glory of God. When Rev. B. Molette took charge of this church a little more than two years ago he found us in a sadly scattered condition, so scattered were the people that only fifty five members were found in good standing. He entered upon his work here with high spirits and much Christian zeal, and backed up by the powerful hand of God he has carried us from one stage of progress to another until now we have nearly four hundred members in good standing. Rev. B. Molette has succeeded in this field beyond the highest expectations of his best friends. Besides swelling the membership he has pulled down the dilapidated building that he found us using and erected a fine church edifice at a cost of ten thousand dollars. I am glad to say that less than $2500.00 will pay every cent of our indebtedness. We have under the administration of this powerful man raised and paid out more than seven thousand dollars for building purposes. We are greetful to the city of Savannah and especially the Shiloh Baptist church for lending us the services of this man of God. He has been with us now nearly three years and has done so much good work among us that we are beginning to feel that he belongs to us. Rev. Molette has made for himself a great name and built for himself a monument more lasting than marble or granite, because his name is written in the hearts of a loyal people. May he live long to bless the world by his very valuable service.
Yours in Christ,
W. M. Cröss.

High Brows and Low Brows
Every race of people have two classes which are designated as follows:
Low Brows
Low brows are a class who are contended to remain uneducated don't want to learn sit and grumble all day and pray to the Almighty for him to give them their heart's desires. When they feel blue the first thing they think of is drink, get jagged to drown their sorrows and in that condition, who wants them? Who likes them? Nobody. They are brushed aside and soon forgotten. To sum it up they are more or less worthless. Am I rigid?
---
High Brows
Highbrows are a class who want to learn, who want to know what the world is doing—they are rising above the level, they want the best of everything. If they pray to the Lord to help them they realize that the Lord HELPS THEM WHO HELP THEMSELVES—they don't sit and grumble at hard luck, they work all the harder to accomplish their desires. Their morals are clean and the word REFINEMENT has a meaning. Am I right?
The Air Dome
Is catering to the high brows because it presents a good -clean, wholesome and educational amusement. Whether you are poor or rich if you are a high brow

HINGTON, A. M. C. D.
MARK C. HAYFORD, D. D., F. R. G. S.
I am to deal with the section of Africa which constitutes, past of its most distinctive negro or black zone, and it will be useful, before dwelling upon the conditions existing there at the present time, to review the past history of the whole country of which it forms an integral part. The review will help us in determining what conditions may, with benefit, be introduced in the work of the situation in the good of this region of Africa, whose fortunes, as affecting not only the well-being of the negro there and elsewhere, but also the general progress and welfare of the world, every one may rightly seek.
I propose, then, to deal with the past and present conditions of the country and the conditions which may best subserve its interests in the future; and the discussion will bear upon the educative tendencies that these conditions have had, and may be expected to have, upon the people there, temporally and spiritually.
The Gold Coast, which is to be regarded and treated as representing the rest of the negro land of Africa, and as a true type thereof, occupies the southern part of the Sudan (or "Country of the Blacks," which is the meaning of the word "Sudan")... being bounded on the south by the Atlantic—the Gulf of Guinea; on the west by the French Ivory Coast and Liberia; on the east of the German Togoland, the French protectorate of Dahomey and the British dependency of Nigeria... while its northern parts or territories extend right into the Sudan, with which it forms one great whole. It lies between 5 and 12 degrees north of the equator, stretching from longitude 2 degrees east to longitude 5 degrees west, and is about 500 miles long, its greatest breadth being about 350 miles.
In our day the question has often been asked: "Has Negroland or the Country of the Blacks, really had any past worthy of the historian's attention, or the student's consideration? Has it ever taken part in the race of the nations for that which ennobles humanity in political government, in society, or in religion?" The answer to this question I can best give in the words of a descriptive note in a publication connected with the work of the Church Missionary society of England:
Before England was a monarchy, and whilst the Heptarchy was still a troublesome fact, there existed in the northern part of the Sudan several large and well-ordered native negro states, which had developed in digenuously a comparatively high condition of civilization. Some of these states attained to vast proportions, one, for instance, that of Shonghuf, was nearly half the size of Europe, stretching from the Atlantic to what is now called Sokoto, and from Bornu to Morocco. The empire of Bornu was also very nearly as large. But now little remains of these ancient glories.
"It was about the middle of the thirteenth century, that is, when the Third Henry reigned in England, that the empire of Bornu rose to its zenith. The seat of its government was then in Kanem, and is so shown on El Burstis map published in 1153, but its name subsequently became changed to that of Bornu, which has continued for many centuries until this day. Now, Bornu, or rather, as the natives spell it, Barna means the land, of Noah, and its people, are called Kanur, that is, the people of light."
"The greatest extent, of the empire was from the Niger to the Nile, that is, about 1,400 miles, embracing what are now known as Wadal, Baghirmil, Darfur, Kordofun and Kanem, which is now tributary to Wadi. It remained-prosperous, although occasionally suffering victisitudes, until the middle of the last (eighteenth) century, when an Arab seized the throne, and civil wars and discords ensued, which have resulted in its present decadence.
"Although Bornu has been reduced to about the size of England, it is by no means an unimportant state. Its form of government is constitutional, but its sultan is practically despotic, being the head of both the church and state, and the mirror of al excellence and infallibility. He has a special body guard of horsemen still coated in suits of armor, manufactured in the country. He has 20 metal cannons, which were cast in the capital. Kuka, the capital, contains 60,000 inhabitants.
There are (besides Kuka) many other, walled towns in the country. There is a large trade done in horse, cattle, asses, sheep, goats, ivory, ostrich feathers, indigo, wheat, and leather, besides native manufactured goods, woven fabrics, pottery and metal ware, which are, highly prized throughout the Sudan," and, we might add, outside the Sudan, too.
There stands revealed the fact that in Negroland generally, in African there has been much that has characterized the great nations of the earth, which occupy a common plane, and in whose advancement in the knowledge of the more important arts and sciences Africa has from the earliest time taken a leading, indeed not the
writers would have no think. He occupies a common position with all, and he stands or falls with all alike. Polygamy, the natural outcome of their social laws, which, however, is unfortunate for the position of manhood, and, particularly, of womanhood, was prevalent in every part of the country, but, whether pagan or Mohammedan in their practices, they were more or less clannish in their habits, and, for mutual security and help, observed certain common laws of good faith, hospitality and benevolence within the circles of each clan, and sometimes even generally. The people, as a rule, were, and still are attractive personally, having fine physique and great powers of endurance. It is a common practice in some quarters to represent the negro by the ugliest types of his race, not by the finest, or even the average. There is a constant pittable caricature of the negro, it being forgotten that in all races there are typical ugly types, by which they could be caricatured with perhaps better effect than the negro is.
And here it may remark, also, that the morality of some of the heathen tribes of Africa is of a very high order indeed, or is required to be. Chastity before marriage is an absolute requirement. For adultery the punishment in some places is 25 lashes on the bare back, fine or imprisonment, and on release a reminder of other 25 lashes, which generally has the effect of keeping the miscreant straight for the future. The woman is shaven and marched through the town or village, license being given to the children and everybody in the place to shout or cry "Shame" after her. You may depend upon it that this has a great deterrent effect upon those who would otherwise commit similar offenses. But it is one thing to make stringent laws and another to have the moral and spiritual power to keep them voluntarily and on principle. This power is what Christianity imparts, and hence lies, importance alike to the negro and to every other race of helpless man.

Thou shalt not rear thy children by proxy, but thou thyself shalt be their mother, and thou shalt lead them in the way they shall go, and when they are old they will not depart from it.—Swiped.
Four men, were, playing golf on a course where the hazard on the ninth hole was a deep ravine.
They drove off. Three went into the ravine and one managed to get his ball over. The three who had dropped into the ravine walked up to have a look. Two of them decided not to try to play their balls out and gave up the hole. The third said he would go down and play out his ball. He disappeared into the deep crevasse. Presently his ball came hobbing out and after a time he climbed up.
"How many strokes?" asked one of his opponents.
"Three."
"But I heard six."
"Three of them were echoes!"—Saturday Evening Post.
This story, of Dr. Elmer Filsworth Brown, the new Chancellor of New York university, is now going the rounds. On one occasion, when he was called upon to respond to a toast at a banquet, he compared the evening with the dull and drab nights he was forced to spend, poring over his books. "It makes me think of the little son of a friend of mine," said Chancellor Brown. "One summer he was taken to the circus for the first time by his doting father. When he returned, round-eyed and all but apoplectic with delight, his mother asked him how he liked the circus. 'Mother,' said my friend's little boy, 'if you once go to the circus with me, you'll never want to fool away time on church again.' — University Item.

Second Baptist Church There was large a number of persons out on Sunday morning last. The pastor, Rev. D. Augustine Reid, preached an excellent sormon from St. John 17:19. On to-morrow at 11 a.m., the Rev. M. W. Gilbert of Selma University will preach: He will also lecture on Monday night at the church.
St. Paul C. M.E Church
Services at St. Paul C. M.E. Church were very impressive Sunday at both morning and night, notwithstanding the severe heat. The pastor, at each of these services, endeavored to deliver the message to an appreciative audience. The choir rendered splendid music which was enjoyed by all. The pastor preached last Sunday night, the text was, "I was in the spirit on the Lord's day," Rev. 1-10. Subject, "The Lord's day and what it is." This subject shall be repeated until our people shall know to differentiate between the Mosaic Sabbath and the Christian Sabbath. "The Christian Baptism and the Mode" will be our subject next Sunday night. Sunday School picnic at Woodlawn park last Monday was quite a success.
Death.
Miss Margretta Scott, wife of Maj. B. J. Scott, died June 14th. She was buried Sunday afternoon. The funeral service was conducted by Rev. Singleton of St. Philip A. M. E. Church and was attended by many friends and acquaintances. The deceased left a husband and one daughter to mourn her death. The pall-bearers were Messrs. J. S. Adkins, J. W. Anderson, Baccus Grant, T. J. Carter, J. Nco. Strobart and L. Williams
Miss Emeline Gordon departed this life at seven o'clock Monday morning at her late residence 610 Russell street, after an illness of about seven months. Miss Gordon's kind and affectionate ways won for her many friends and she was well liked by all who knew her. Miss Gordon is survived by several relatives and a host of friends. The funeral took place on Wednesday afternoon at 3 o'clock from her residence.
Everybody is trying to beat the other farming. Farming is discussed from Sunday to Sunday. Children's day in church passed away successfully. Rev. C. N. Cook of Norman Park, Ga., preached the entire day. At eleven o'clock service Rev. C. N. Cook was presented to the large audience by Rev. W. J Rodgers. This able divine preached an excellent sermon. Sunday night these same two able divines filled the pulpit and Rev. Dr. Cook preached a soul stirring sermon. We are glad to welcome our school boys and girls back to our little town. Miss Bronerand Miss Eva Johnson have been attending the Americus Institute. Rev. W. J. Rodgers has been attending the Georgia State College at Savannah, Ga. Rev. Rodgers has travelled abroad in the tronical countries. The most successful farmers in our little town are M. S. and D. M., the rest are coming to be farmers.

St. Philip Dots.
Masonic Temple West Gwinnett Street.
Notwithstanding the extreme hot weather on last Sunday our members and friends were out in large numbers. Rev. Singleton preached a strong and timely sermon regarding the sayings and doings of the times, especially among the colored people of our city who are so easily led to believe the strange doctrine that is so prevalent in Savannah at the present time. Rev. Singleton's text was Matt. 11:3. Subject,
"The best way to remove doubt." On last Tuesday night one hundred clubs were organized for the next rally which will be on the third Sunday in September, that is the Sunday that we expect to go into the new church. The contractor says he will let us have it by then. Now it behooves every member to do his very best to make it the biggest rally on record at St. Philips. Miss Virgie Wright, after a long illness
died on Saturday June 15 and was buried on last Sunday at 4 p.m. Sister Wright was a member of St. Philip for a number of years. A letter received from Bro. R. W. Rogers this week says that he is improving. Tomorrow is trustee day. Let every member respond liberally. Mrs. Martha Scott, who was buried from her residence, 31st Street West last Sunday at 4:30 p.m. was a faithful member of class No. 5. The following services will be heed on to morrow, Sunday: Prayer meeting at 5 a.m. Preaching at 11 a.m. Sunday School at 3 p.m. A. C. E. League at 6:30 p.m. Preaching at 9:30 p.m. You are welcomed.
Some One Has Said
"There is nothing new under the sun."
Well, there's one thing sure, and that is that there is something new EVERY Sunday in the great New York Sunday World.
"B-e-l-i-e-v-e M-e, its true," said the small boy as he made a grab for the new 16-page illustrated Joke Book given FREE. It's always full of new things. Also, there is the Comic Weekly, and the Magazine, and the Metropolitan Section and half a dozen other sections. Tell your newsdealer to save a copy of next Sunday's World for you.
