VOLUME XXVIII Wilson Inaugurated President Wilson Inaugurated President MARSHALL, SWORN IN AS VICE PRESIDENT First Democratic Administration In Twenty Years—Over 30,000 Men in Parade—Washington Crowded with Visitors—Those Who Compose the Cabinet. Woodrow Wilson of New Jersey was on last Tuesday inaugurated in Washington City as President of the United States, and Marshall of Indiana was sworn in as Vice-President. As usual the inaugural ceremonies were very impressive, and in the vast gathering which was on hand were hundreds of the most distinguished public men of the country. The administration which President Wilson heads is the first which the Democrats of the country have placed in power in twenty years. The weather which Washington experienced on last Tuesday was ril that could be wished for. The skies were gentle and the air mildly crisp, making a light overcoat comfortable, but not really necessary. There was less military pomp about it than featured in the Roosvelt and Taft inaugurals, but more of the popular sort in which the people themselves had a part. Yet there was an adequate percentage of both. The parade, however, was very spectacular and consumed about five hours in passing the Presidential reviewing stand. There were about 30,000 men in line. It is estimated that fully three hundred thousand persons were in Washington to witness the notable ceremonies, the southernnors, of course, by force of numbers, predominating. The new cabinet members are: SECRETARY OF STATE—William J. Bryan, of Nebraska. SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY—William G. McAdoo, of New York. ATTORNEY GENERAL—James C. McReynolds, of Tennessee. SECRETARY OF WAR-Lindley M. Garrison of New Jersey. David S. Houston of Missouri. SECRETARY OF STATE ROB Viliam B. Wilton, of Pennsylvania. Special Notices Representatives from the several K. of P. Lodges and Courts of Calanthe are requested to meet in joint session Sunday March 9th, at 4 p. m., at Seabrook's Hall, to complete the Pythian Period arrangements. Prof. R. W. Gadsden, Chairman. Joseph B. Parker, Secretary. The Past Chancellor's Council will hold an important meeting at Masonic Temple, Sunday March 9th, 5:30 p. m., E. B. Pettie, Chairman. Among the Masons The glory of life is to live, not to be loved; to give, not to get; to serve, not to be served. To be a strong hand in the dark to another in the time of need; to be a cup of strength to a human soul in a crisis of weakness is to know the glory of life. The opinion prevails in a good many quarters that the office of Master is merely a place for the acquirement of Masonic knowledge. For this reason very often men are elected to the office of Master who have no knowledge whatever of Masonry, but because they have an aptitude for learning things and as their brethren put it "Can learn the work." As the sun rises in the East to rule and govern the day so the Master sits in the East to rule and govern his Lodge. But how is he going to do this if he has no knowledge to begin with? The position of Master is a place from which to disseminate Masonic light and knowledge, and none but those who by service and application have acquired a knowledge of the object and purposes of the fraternity should ever be elevated to the station of Master if we are to have successful Lodges. A man to be a good Master does not need to have an accomplished knowledge of ritualism, but he must know what Masonry is, what it stands for, and its practical relation to the age in which we live.—Illinois Freemason. The Savannah Tribune Mrs. Mary Brown is very ill at her home, 711 Scott street. Her many friends wish her a speedy recovery. Mrs. W. J. Bush is out again after an illness of three weeks.

One of the most delightful entertainments given this season was that at the home of Mrs. Mamie Chaplin for the benefit of Wesley M. E. Church last Wednesday evening. Mrs. Niatte Brown continues to improve from an illness of three weeks. Mr. Jacob McLain is again on the sick list, much to the regret of his many friends.

Dear Friends:—Some time ago there was a dispute between the people of a sister city and ours—that their's was cleaner and neater than Savannah, and that it is due in great measure to the self respect and pride of the colored citizens. As no loyal Savannahian would let such a statement go unchallenged, we naturally questioned it. We said that those who worked in our homes were usually as "neat as a pin," and if they kept themselves so surely must keep their homes and their premises likewise. Sometimes a lot of dirt gets in the streets and lanes from yards where the people are a bit thoughtless or because the hard-worked scavenger man doesn't go regularly to remove the garbage. If the dirt only blew about the streets and lanes and made them look bad that would be bad enough, but as dirt always breeds disease you can readily see how necessary it is for all who love Savannah dearly, to be "up in arms" and make a "fight" for a nice, neat, clean city, just as we all would be ready to fight a vicious enemy who wished to destroy the city. As we can not have a clean, healthy and beautiful Savannah without the hearty co-operation of all our fellow citizens we have determined to offer three prizes in gold of $10.00, $5.00 and $3.00 respectively for the best kept—the neatest and cleanest—yards between now and July 1st, 1913. We would like those wishing to enter the contest to give their names and addresses to the pastor of their church as soon as possible. The premises will be inspected at irregular intervals by members of the Club. Faithfully your friends, The Members of the Huntingdon Club. P. S.—The pastors will please send the names and addresses of all who wish to enter the contest as soon as possible to The Huntingdon Club. Subscribe for The Tribune. SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, SATURDAY, MARCH 8, 1913 2 Mechanics Savings Bank Moves Mechanics Savings Bank Moves NEW QUARTERS ON BARNARD STREET Equipment of New Quarters Modern in Every Particular—Ladies Waiting Room Main Feature—Institution Makes Much Progress. Because of the crowded and inconvenient quarters in which it has been situated since its establishment, the Mechanics Savings Bank has moved into its new and commodious quarters at 139 Barnard street. For several years the increased business of the institution, which was located on the second floor of the building at 20 State street, had caused the directors of the company to look around for larger quarters, and when the half block on the west side of Barnard street, extending from York street to the lane, was purchased by Mr. A. L. Tucker, one of the founders of the company, and also a director, it was decided to move into quarters in this block when it was remodeled. The middle store in the block was, therefore, selected as the spot for the bank, and in the renovation of the block nothing was left undone which would add to the convenience of the bank. The work on the new quarters for the bank was completed the first part of the week, and the institution now has quarters which are not only very tastily arranged but very commodious. The new quarters consist of the president's private room, the banking department, the ladies waiting room, and a general utility room in the rear. The woodwork in the front of the bank is finished in cherry and all the fixtures are of the latest design A feature of the bank which will undoubtedly prove very convenient to the ladies of the city when they are in the shopping district is the ladies' waiting room. This is finished in white and is very beautifully furnished. It has every convenience and fills a long felt want by the ladies of the city when uptown. The room is fitted up with beautiful furniture and will prove a haven of rest to many shop-weary ladies. The new location of the institution will, beyond a doubt, have a tendency of increasing the business of the institution as it can be [Bontinued on Page Four] تاریخ ۱۳۹۲/۰۴/۰۱ تا ۱۳۹۲/۰۴/۱۰ Private Sanitarium On East Side Private Sanitarium On East Side TEMPORARILY ON GWINNETT ST. NEAR SUBWAY All Latest Hospital Equipment To be Installed—Twelve Large Rooms—All Physicians' Patients Treated—To Open About First of April "The East Side Private Sanitarium" is the name of the new hospital which will occupy the building at 754 Gwinnett street, east. During the latter part of last summer three of the Negro doctors of the city, seeing the necessity of having a private sanitarium for Negroes in this part of the state, decided that they would purchase a site in the city for the establishment of such an institution. Therefore, they purchased two lots at 916 and 918 Wheaton street on which to carry out their project. It is considered an admirable spot for such an institution and it was planned to build immediately. However, circumstances were such at that time that this was impracticable, and the idea was dropped for the time being. During the latter part of last month, however, seeing that valuable time was passing and that the necessity for such an institution would not allow them to defer their actions any longer, the prime movers in the idea leased the building at 754 Gwinnett street, cast, just the other side of the subway, and will shortly open it as a private sanitarium. The building is a two story frame structure and has been renovated throughout, several additions having been made to it. It contains twelve large rooms, sufficiently roomy to accommodate two beds in case of necessity, and a large porch, upstairs and downstairs, extending the entire width of the house has been added to the front of the structure. Both up and down stairs a large hallway, into which open all of the rooms, extends from the front of the house to the rear. There are two modernly equipped bath rooms, one on either floor, and a large kitchen. From a medical standpoint, however, the one particular feature which will be note worthy, is the operating room. Its construction is such that it embodies all the latest ideas. It is 15 feet by 15, and adequate light for even the most delicate operation will be admitted through a skylight, three doors and an equal number of windows. The equipment in this Notes Indicating Negro Progress As Furnished by The National Negro Business League A new Negro undertaking firm has been chartered at Los Angeles, Cal. Its name is Smith-Williams & Company. Several leading Negroes of South Bend, Indiana have formed a stock company to start a grocery. The company is capitalized as $1,000. The Atlanta Mutual Life Insurance Company is reporting a surplus of $28,096.54, with $13,000 bonds and annual income of $200,000. In Cherry County, Kansas, is a large and prosperous colony of Negroes known as Kinkaiders. The colonists engage in farming and stock raising. A Negro daily has made its advent at Oakland, Cal. It is named The Evening Gazette and is edited by a trained editor and publisher, Edward Allen. The People's Saving Bank and Trust Company, of Nashville, Tenn., shows an increase of $21,000 in resources for the past year and $6,000 increase in capital stock. The Eldorado Gold Star Mining Co., of Los Angeles, Cal., has raised $4,500 of the $7,000 necessary to install a cyanide plant. The company is a Negro concern selling its stock to none but Negroes. The board of commissioners of the Knights of Pythias has authorized Mr. Sydney Pittman, the Negro architect who designed the Jamestown Negro building, to draw plans for a $150,000 temple to be built in Dallas, Texas. The United Brothers of Friendship of Texas, located at Houston, announces that the receipts of the order for 1911 are $125,000. All told the society has collected $510,-000 for widows and orphans. Its net resources above all claims are $50,000. A number of the most prominent Negroes of Arkansas assembled at Pine Bluff a short time ago and organized and old line legal service life insurance company. The capital stock of the company is $250,-000. At this first meeting $5,200 was subscribed of which $2,600 was paid in cash, security being given for the balance. The board of directors is made up of the leading business and professional men throughout the state. What promises to be one of the finest play houses in this country operated in the interest of colored people will open its doors about March 1st at Savannah, Ga. This new theatrical proposition is owned by the Savannah Picture Plays Company of that city. The sum of $40,000 is being put in the construction, meaning every convence and beauty accordingly. A first-class playhouse is the object of those interested, and everything possible is being done towards that end. Mr. Fred Taylor with The Tribune During the past week the local Tribune soliciting force has been augmented by Mr. Fred Taylor. Any favors shown Mr. Taylor by the patrons of The Tribune will be greatly appreciated by the management. room will be of the latest design and will include a gas sterilizer. The entire building will be lighted by gas and electricity. Furniture for the sanitarium is now in transit from the factory and it is expected that this will arrive shortly. Ofcourse, the sanitarium will occupy its present quarters only for a temporary period, as it expects at sometime to build on the site which it owns on Wheaton street. All physicians' patients will have access to the sanitarium, and it will doubtless be patronized not only by Savannahians, but by many persons in this part of the state. Head nurse for the institution will be Miss Ellen Gross, a graduate of Charity Hospital. The officers are Dr. Geo. A. Smith, president; Dr. C. B. Tyson, treasurer; and Dr. N. W. Este, secretary and vice president. The sanitarium will open about the first of next month. NUMBER 25 Star Theatre Opens Monday Night ABOUT $40,000 REPRESENTED IN INVESTMENT One of Finest in Country For Negroes-Has Seating Capacity for 1200-Beautifully Decorated-Vaudeville and Pictures-Popular Prices to Be Charged. The new theatre on West Broad street, between Gaston and Huntingdon, which has been in course of construction for the past three or more months, will open its doors for the first performance at seven o'clock Monday night. "The Star" is the name by which this beautiful combination picture and vaudeville house will be known. The name of the theatre is very emphatically and artistically carried out in the ornaments on the front of the house. A large five-point star with hundreds of colored globes is the most conspicuous decoration which adorns the outside and this, together with numerous plain electric globes scattered over the entire front, and four raised statues, one on each of the four columns, makes the exterior decorations of the house as beautiful and imposing as any theatre in the country built for Negroes. The interior decorations are exquisitely beautiful., in fact they are considered by many to be the equal of any house of similar character in the city. The ceiling, which is highly ornamented, is of metal and is very artistically laid. The stage curtains are handsomely painted and the subjects are very appropriate. On one of them is a picture of Abraham Lincoln and U.S. Grant. Above the curtain is a very beautiful painting which immediately catches the eye as you enter the house. The house is one of the largest of its kind in the South, having a seating capacity for 1200. On the main floor are light opera chairs for seven hundred, and the balcony is fitted with five hundred similar chairs; in the latter, each tier is elevated above the other. There is standing room for about two-hundred. The stage is very large and is equipped with beautiful scenery. On either side are the dressing rooms. The house has a cement ground floor and the seats are so arranged that an unobstructed view of the entire stage can be had from any position on the floor. The general policy of the house will be three shows a night, and while it is not expected that any one will remain through more than one performance, yet there will be no general clearance of the house after each show. In program, the house will present moving pictures and vaudeville. The management assures the patrons of the house the very best vaudeville acts procurable, and the finest pictures made. The program for the opening week will be seen on page three of this paper. The music for the house will be provided by a six-piece orchestra under the leadership of Pros. Carl Hankerson. The house will cater to the popular prices, adults being admitted for ten cents and children for five cents. As in the construction of the house, all help will be colored. There will be two ushers on the main floor and one in the balcony. After Monday there will be a matinee performance every afternoon at 3:30 o'clock. The building is adequately provided with fire exits, and is steam heated throughout.

Text of the Lesson, Gen. xix, 12-17, 23-29—Memory Verses, 15, 16—Golden Text, II Cor. vi, 17—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. It does seem too bad to hurry over these lessons after the fashion of the suggestion of those who have assigned them, but the faithful teacher will take up the intervening portions and endeavor to omit nothing. Every part of the record of the visit of the Lord and the angels to Abraham in chapter xviii is most fascinating and most instructive and practical. See the Lord of glory in human form, as doubtless He also appeared to Adam and Eve in Eden. See Him and His companions, the two angels, also in the form of men, accepting Abraham's hospitality and actually eating the food prepared by Abraham and Sarah. Consider that He also ate in His immortal resurrection body. Think of the breakfast He prepared for the disciples on the shore of Galilee and also of eating and drinking with Him at His table in His kingdom. Do not omit to notice the water for their feet. Consider His reference to the omission of this by Simon (Luke vii, 44) and see Him attending to it Himself in John xiii. Contrast Sarah's three measures of meal unleavened (xvili, 6) with the woman's three measures of meal leavened of Matt. viii, 33. See the great saying of xvili, 14. "Is anything too hard for the Lord?" And compare Jer. xxxii, 17-27. In xviii, 22, see the Lord and Abraham alone together, while the two angels go on their way to Sodom to rescue Lot. Henr Abraham pleading for Sodom and the Lord's assurance that if there were but ten righteous men in the city He would not destroy it. Contrast the greater sin of Israel when the presence of such men as Noah. Daniel and Job could not prevent the judgment from falling upon her and the intercession of Moses or Samuel would not avail (Ezek. xiv, 14-20; Jer. xv. 2)—more tolerable for Sodom than for Capernaum in the day of judgment (Matt. xi, 23, 24). We have seen Lot pitching his tent toward Sodom and later dwelling in Sodom (xiii, 12; xiv, 12). but now we see him a ruler in Sodom, sitting in the gate of Sodom (xix, 1). That means getting on in the world, but it means such a fellowship with the world as angels cannot approve, for they preferred to abide in the street rather than enter Lot's house. When they communicated to Lot their business, that they had been sent to destroy the city because of its iniquity, which cried greatly to God, they told Lot to tell his family and relatives to flee from the city because of the judgment that was about to come. They paid no heed to Lot's message, however, and he seemed to them as one that mocked. So much for the value of a testimony against the world by one who is conformed to the world. The life and conduct of Lot is such a problem that if the spirit by Peter had not told us that he was a righteous man (II Pet. ii, 7, 8) we might never have supposed that he was such a one. Such a testimony concerning such a man should prevent us from passing judgment on any one as to whether they are the Lord's or not. See Rom. xiv, 13; I Cor. 4, 5. In the morning the two angels took Lot and his wife and their two daughters by the hand and brought them forth without the city, urging them to escape for their lives and look not behind them lest they should be consumed in the destruction of the city. The perverseness and unbelief of Lot are seen in his refusal to escape to the mountain and in his fear that He who had delivered him from Sodom would let some evil befall him in the mountain. See the marvelous grace of God in sparing Zoar at his request. How wonderful beyond all comprehension the sin of man and the grace of God! There is, however, a limit to His forbearance if sin is persisted in, for, though He is long suffering and not willing that any should perish. the day of the Lord will come (II Pet. ill. 9, 10). From chapter xix, 15-23, it looks as if the day on which Sodom and Morrash were destroyed began with a clear sky, a morning of sunshine after a night of the usual sins to which the cities were given over. If the sons-in-law of Lot happened to mention to any of their friends the visit of their father and his strange message concerning the approaching doom it probably caused only laughter. But the clouds gathered, the storm broke, the fire and brimstone fell, and that was the last morning on earth for the inhabitants of those cities. The Lord Jesus Christ, who sent the deluge in the days of Noah and the fire that destroyed those cities, has said, "As it was in the days of Noah, * * * as it was in the days of Lot, * * * even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed" (Luke xvii, 20; xxviii, 30; II Thess. 1, 7-9). He also said, "Remember Lot's wife" (Luke xvii, 32). And when today these Old Testament records are ridiculed, as they so often are, it is the Lord Jesus who is thus held up to scorn and contempt and through Him God the Father, for all of His words and works were the Father's through Him (John xil, 49; xiv, 10). THE PREVENTION OF CALF DISEASES Due to the fact that the unborn calf makes rapid growth during the eight weeks prior to birth he who would breed and develop good cattle should turn the mother dry at the beginning of this period, writes Hugh G. Van Pelt in Klimball's Dairy Farmer. When dry he should begin feeding her well of foods rich in mineral matter or ash and protein, for these are the nutrients from which the mother makes muscle, blood, bone, cartilaginous material and hair. Of these, in addition to water, the youngster is almost completely composed at birth. Fat, which is furnished by carbohydrates, such as corn, timothy hay, corn stover and straw, is conspicuous by its absence. Therefore such foods do not aid greatly in manufacturing the fetus. Where special attention and good judgment are used in thus providing nutriment through the cow for the offspring abortions are of much less frequent occurrence, and calves are born that are larger, more vigorous and less susceptible to diseases, such as calf scours' calf cholera, hemorrhagic septicaemia, etc., that rob the dairy ```markdown ``` Rosalind of Old Basing, the pure bred Jersey cow her picture, is champion dairy cow of the British empire. Her record under official test is: Highest milk yield in one day, 52 pounds; highest milk yield in one year, 15.700 pounds; highest yield in three years, 47.841% pounds; average butter fat test, 5.16 per cent; butter production, one year, 1,001.89 pounds; butter production, three years, 2,504.39 pounds world of much of the best blood that should be retained to replenish and add to the greatness of its herds. Almost as important are the care and feed necessary after the birth of the calf, but that is another story. In the first place, it must be kept free from disease, whether it is born strong or weak. As soon as it draws its first breath it comes in contact with germs, some of which will work havoc if they gain access to its inner body. If germs that cause white scours or hemorrhagic septicaemia are present they are kable to enter through the broken umbilical cord before nature has time to seal it by drying the broken end. Therefore it is not only necessary for the cow's owner to provide a clean, carefully disinfected, dry maternity stall, but he should be in attendance at the birth of the calf with a supply of reliable disinfecting solution to carefully cleanse the umbilical cord and tie a disinfected cord tightly around it close up to the abdomen. This is a very simple, inexpensive treatment, yet it is all that is necessary, to prevent a large percentage of infectious diseases. In addition to liberal and regular feeding it is surely advisable to provide for the calf quarters that are scrupulously clean, warm and dry. Never take it for granted that disease germs are absent, for if you do precautions necessary for successful calf raising will be omitted and a high death rate of calves will result. A supply of reliable disinfectant should be close at hand, so that every time the calf stall is cleaned the floor, walls and every nook and crevice may be saturated with it. The box from which the calf eats should frequently be thoroughly scrubbed with cleansing powder or soap and rinsed out with the disinfecting solution, for one of the chief sources of calf disease is the utensil from which it feeds. This is especially true of the pail from which it drinks. No law compels the dairyman to sterilize such utensils by steam or hot water. The plan of washing or at least rinsing them in a disinfecting solution should be practiced regularly after feeding and the pails set where the sun can shine on them. These suggestions are worth considering, for, supplemented with proper feeding, their practice will prevent the causes of 90 per cent of the death loss of calves, which at present is a discouraging problem to the breeder of dairy cattle who by the use of good blood is trying to improve his herd. Stabling the Colts Colts that are wintered inside in spacious, comfortable stalls will lie down and rest at night, which is just the thing for them to do, writes a correspondent of the Farm Press. Resting at night takes the weight of the body off their legs and rests the joints. The handling that is necessary is good training for young horses. If they have been properly handled about the stable the breaking and training process is much simplified. In the morning every horse gets a good currying. The time spent on them may not be much, but it certainly pays in feeding horses. If I want stock to thrive well on the smallest amount of feed, I keep them warm. The barn is easily ventilated so that plenty of fresh air is supplied, and stock does better there than standing beside a board fence on a pile of frozen manure. EASTER NOVELTIES New Ways of Coloring Eggs That Will Please Children. Let the Kiddies Have a Bunny Hunt on Easter Morning—Baskets of Dainty Hues as Receptacles For the Treasure Troves—Prize For Child Who Collects the Most Loot. If you are fortunate enough to have a "kiddie" or two in your home you have, of course, planned for a regular rainbow assortment of Easter eggs, the kind bunny rabbits leave in nests out under the garden hedge or by the vines on the veranda or in the big sitting room chair Mothers should be very careful to color these eggs with perfectly harmless dyes. Any fruit or vegetable coloring is generally harmless. Aniline dyes, mineral pigments, lakes and many other substances are poisonous. Egg dyes can be obtained in reliable drug stores in the recommendation of clerius and druggists. They are so inexpensive that it is extremely foolish to risk improvised and unknown colors when one considers the experiment may be made at the expense of a life. Red, blue and green are the colors most popular. Purple is equally popu- EASTER CENTERPIECE lar, and it can be made by combining the left over blue and red. Orange brightens up the egg basket or nest, being lighter than the other colors. By weakening the dyes after the deep blue, crimson, purple and green are achieved a pale blue, light pink, sea green or delicate violet is obtained. Dark colored eggs may be used for the deep tones, but pure white or delicate cream is required for the lighter shades. A novel effect is obtained by dipping one half of the egg in one color and the other half in a contrasting shade. They may be decorated with applied designs or by hand. Make sure the eggs used are fresh and of good quality. When an egg is fresh it has a porous, dull surface. A shiny egg is at least stale if not entirely bad. Boil the eggs sufficiently to make sure they are hard through, but not enough to make them tough. Do not boil too rapidly or subject the shells to sudden changes of temperature, as this often causes them to crack. Build the Easter nest of a crape paper cut to resemble grass. Fill it with the prettiest of the colored eggs, the more colors the better. Easter morning give the "kiddies" a basket each and let them hunt for the gift of the Bunny Rabbit. If there isn't a tiny hand to hold the basket then build the nest in the center of your dinner table. The centerpiece illustrated is most attractive for the Easter dinner table, and it is not in the least difficult to construct. Dressmaking Hints. When you have a torn buttonhole, stitch a piece of closely woven tape to the underside. Now sew the edge of the buttonhole to this and cut through the tape. Buttonhole stitch the edge in the usual manner and it will never tear again. Soak the whalebones taken from a discarded bodice in warm water and they may readily be strengthened for further use. On the handmade French nightgowns there is a small loop buttonholed in the center, through which the ribbon is drawn and tied. This saves the time required to sew on the made bow. When stitching a seam on chiffon or mousseline de soie it is very apt to pucker. To prevent this, place a strip of paper over the seam and 'sew through it. The strips used on a bolt of ribbon are excellent for this purpose. Novelty For the Desk A novelty for the desk, of equal use to men and women, is a cord tray. This is fashioned of dark green wood and has no cover. It is about eleven inches long, three and a half wide and is divided into six compartments. In each compartment is a ball of "tie tight" linen tape of a different color, one of plink, one of blue and white, one of red and white, one of red and blue, etc. These balls are wound egg shape so that they are not apt to roll away, and this particular kind of string is much stronger than the ordinary and prettier for tying things. At the end of the box or tray is fastened a pair of scissors with a long green ribbon. Complete, this is priced at $2.50. Traveling Convenience When one is traveling and puts a pencil into the traveling bag it is so apt to slip into unhandy crevices that a small flat pencil case, well filled, is a convenience not to be despised on a trip. Red leatheret cases may be had, filled, for 50 cents. They contain three pencils, a small case of pen points, a rubber and a penholder, each fastened in place. W. L.

Phone 2171. Entered at the Post Office at Savannah, Ga., as Second-Class mail matter. SATURDAY, MARCH 28TH, 1913. In a style strikingly characteristic, Former President Taft has entered into private life. Jovial, big hearted, full of love and pathos, our former president took leave of his official family and friends at the capital on last Tuesday and is now safely domiciled within the confines of a Georgia city as her guests. As citizens of Georgia, we welcome our Ex-chief to our state. We share with our sister city the honor which is hers by the presence of citizen extraordinary William H. Taft within her midst. We have not the slightest doubt that the Augustans will give their guest a royal good time. In a few weeks Ex-president Taft will leave Augusta for N°w Haven where he will don the ca and gown as a law professor. Gifted as a lawyer and jurist, and with a natural tendency and likeness for the same, we have no doubt that the ex-president will make good in his new field of endeavor. Yale University must be proud of her distinguished son, William H. Taft. As president of the United States he has brought her honor; as one of her law professors, we feel that he will bring her more honor. God bless our Ex-president in his new field. Possessing as we do our full quote of Americanism which makes the will of the majority the rule of the minority, we at this time, forgetful of the pangs of defeat experienced by the result of our last national election, join the democratic hosts throughout the country in giving to our new president Woodrow Wilson, a hearty welwelcome. For four years, the ship of state must sail under democratic colors. As Captain of our vessel, President Wilson will have much to do with our destiny. Our voyage has begun, the anchor of our vessel has been pulled in, we are now leaving the shore of prosperity and plenty where Ex-President Taft has brought us. After a four years' voyage under a democratic captain and his seamen, shall we again be brought to a land of peace, happiness and plenty or shall we find ourselves shipwrecked on the reef of desolation and famine. We sincerely trust that the former will be reached. In his inaugural address, President Wilson made it plain that it is his desire to be president not of a party but of the whole people. Among the many good sentiments contained in the inaugural address we quote the following as being of more than passing notice; "Justice and only justice, shall also be our motto," "The feelings with which we face this new age of right and opportunity sweep across our heart-strings like some air out of God's own presence, where justice and mercy are reconciled and the judge and the brother are one." "This is not a day of triumph; it is a day of dedication. Here muster not the forces of party, but the forces of humanity. Men's hearts wait upon us; men's lives hang in the balance; men's hopes call upon us to say what we will do. Who shall live up to the great Trust? Who dares fail to try? I summon all honest men, all forward looking men to my side. God helping me. I will not fail them if they will but counsel and sustain me." Braver and truer words could hardly have been spoken than those embodying the foregoing sentiments. We agree with President Wilson that men's hearts wait upon him and his party. We agree with him that men's lives hang in the balance. Yes, 'tis truel Too true perhaps. The hearts of ten million citizens wait upon him and his at this time. Yea, their lives do hang in the balance. Will President Wilson prove himself equal to the stupendous task now before him of giving to those ten million their "just and equal station" in the political life of this nation? Will he render more secure their social and economic status in the life of the nation or will he leave them "to tread the wire press alone? We indeed are children of the nation. We are a constructive and not a destructive force. President Wilson in his inaugural address has promised to swing wide the door of hope and justice to all during his administration. We sincerely trust that all is comprehensive enough to include the Negro. Amid the derisive jeers and taunts of a rough and hostile crowd, the much talked of woman suffrage pageant in which about five thousand women participated, took place on last Monday at the national capital. These women hikers who traveled by foot all the way from New York to Washington, were able to complete their March at the capital city only when troops of cavalry from Fort Meyers were rushed into Washington to take charge of Pennsylvania avenue. It is said that no such scenes of rioting have ever been witnessed before at the national capital during a parade. However, be it said to their credit, the suffragettes held their own during the entire parade. In this they have shown that they mean business and that they are determined not to stop short of their cherished goal. Whatever may be said to the credit or discredit of the suffragette cause, it must be admitted that the movement is growing to stupendous proportions and that it is already assuming a world-wide aspect. There is indeed no denying the fact that in her campaign for political recognition, the American suffragette has conducted herself in a more praiseworthy way and one more likely to bring results than her English sisters. Rowdy tactics and maneuvers have seldom brought desired results regardless as to when and where used and for what cause. The American suffragettes have represented their cause intelligently. They have adopted sane and safe methods in dealing with the opponents of the cause which they represent and which is dearest to their hearts. They have made much progress thus far. The signs of the times point to their greater triumphs in the future. Already women are taking prominent parts in our National nominating conventions; already women enjoy the right of suffrage in several of our states; already a woman enjoys the distinct of being Mayor of an American city. We must admit that one of the great movements of the twentieth century is the great worldwide movement of the women. The attention of the entire world is being drawn to it. Most carefully have we scanned this worldwide movement on the part of the women to note the part which the women of our race are taking in the same. We wonder if they are interested. Are they in favor of the cause of the suffragettes or are they against it? Other questions than this spring up within us as we think of the great suffragette movement and the connection of our women with it. If the suffragettes' cause is a good one, then our women should become sufficiently interested in it to lend it their support. If the cause is not a good one, then our women should let it be known that they are opposed to the ballot being given to women. Our women, as well as our men, can ill afford to sit by idly and fail to take cognizance of any movement of such importance. The suffragette movement is international in its scope. It is affecting women in all parts of the world. Our women as well as others are being affected by this world-wide movement. Let our women get busy as they should and interest themselves in the great suffragette movement. To be able at least to give sound and sensible reasons for your support or opposition to the cause of woman suffrage is far better than to know nothing whatever of this great movement. We trust that our women will apprise themselves of the meaning of the great suffragette cause and then act in a way that will show to the world that they are interested in anything or any movement that pertains to them or their welfare or the welfare of humanity in general.

One of the most interesting weddings of the season was that of Thursday evening of last week, February 27th, at 8:30 o'clock, when Miss Ellen Elizabeth Spencer, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert T. Spencer, and Mr. Henry F. Benson were united in marriage. The ceremony, which was very impressive, was conducted by the Reverend W. L. Cash, pastor of the First Congregational church, at the home of the bride's parents, 214 Park avenue, east, and was witnessed by a large crowd of admiring friends. The house was beautifully decorated for the occasion. The bride, who was attended by her sister, Miss Maude Jeska Spencer, maid of honor, and Miss Bertha Lee, was given away by her father. Mr. Benson was attended by Mr. Perry R. Wright, best man, and Mr. Thomas A. Bright. The wedding march was played by Mr. C. A. R. McDowell. The bride is one of the most affable and popular members of the younger set, and the groom is one of the most widely known young men of the city. The presents which the happy couple received were numerous and beautiful.

At the last meeting of the Dunbar Literary and Social club on the night of February 28th, an interesting and entertaining program was rendered by members of the club, the occasion being a joint celebration of the birthdays of Washington and Lincoln. The paper by Mr. Duncan and the playing of a patriotic medley by Mr. Armstrong were the noteworthy features of an especially good program. Following is the program.

A Lesson on Insurance Ladies and Gentlemen— You have been told of the remarkable success and many other good things pertaining to the Ga. Mutual, and now I presume you are ready to take your first lesson on "good insurance." For instant: Mr. Jno. Doe unfortunately becomes ill and sends in a claim to the Ga. Mutual. The inspector calls on Mr. Doe and after being invited in, takes off his hat before crossing the threshold of the door. Now right here I I would say, that the inspector who purposely fails to give this due and gentlemanly respect to your home, should not be allowed to enjoy the honor of your patronage. Next comes the assistant superintendent, better known as the "pay man." He too should be a man of good manners and ready to discuss intelligently any part of the policy contract that is brought to his attention. These qualifications are highly essential and the Ga. Mutual never misses an opportunity to put them into practice or recommend them to others. Colored Boarding & Lodging House J. E. WALKER, Prop.

Smart Tub Morning Frocks Unusual- ly Attractive This Season, 7 * Dear Elsa—Now is the time when all church societies, clubs and charitable organizations are on the quivive for money making schemes, and as I know that your town club comes under one of these heads I will tell you what a coterle of enterprising girls of my ac quaintance are doing to help along this cause during these penitential days. ‘These girls are of the younger set, and they are going to hold a “paper ba- zaar” at the home of one of the mem- bers. There will be only articles of paper for sale, which will include shav- ing balls, pantry shelf papers, napkins, flower pot holders, drawer sachets and paper dolls with dainty wardrobes. ‘Then they will have all sizes of do!- lies, candle shades, almond and bonbon holders, lemonade straws (really made of paper) and all the Japanese norel- ties. The booths are to be decorated entirely with paper, and tthe attend- sints are to wear eaps, aprons and col- Jars of varions colored crape tissues. Subscriptions will be taken for maga- zines and orders taken for place and score cards, Talking of score eardy reminds me of a charming little Iunebeon party given ‘by 2 triend of mine recently in houor of a bride, elect whose name was Rose. The centerpiece was of bride roses, and each guest had a long stemmed brides- maid's rose at her place, and the place cards were rose shaped, with “Gather ye roscbuds while ye may” dove in gol letters above the name and «date. <Afterward they bad this contest, and the prizes were rambler roses in pots, which were set in rose colored wicker baskets. ‘What rose is never seen on a rolling stone? (Moss rose.) What rose blooms in a girl's cheek? (Maiden’s blush.) AVhat rose can you drink? (Tea rose.) What fs the wandering rose? (Ram- dler.) What is the aspiring rose? (Climber.) What rose {s like a popular book? (ited.) What rose lashes in the sky? (Meteor) Which rose is the principal feature of a wedding? (Bride's rose.) What rose is a yege- table? (Cebbage rose.) Which rose bears the name of “a country? (La France.) Which two roses were famed in history? (Red rose and white rose.) Which rose should Americans honor? ‘(American Beauty.) Which rose bears the name of a spice? (Cinnamon rose.) Which bears the name of a city in ‘America and the name of a popular beauty? (Baltimore Belle) Which rose 4s a perfume? (Musk rose.) ‘Which is a beantifal nen? (Damask. Which is 2 brave general? (Marechal Niel.) Which is the rose of the Demo- <tatic administration? (Nell rose.) It was lots of fun guessing the dif- ferent names and a still greater pleas ure to take home the lovely rambler rose souvenir. Another Lenten occupation that is very popular with me is bargain hunt- ing these mfdseason days. Men laugh At woman's penchant for bargain sales, but where is the man who will not ap- prove when his wife comes home from ono of these orgies with a neat little tub dress bought for 98 cents or there- abouts? There is nothing most men dislike so much as seeing a woman look “sloppy” about the house in the morning, and there fs no denying that even a pretty dressing sack looks anything but trim unléss*the wearer has nothing to do but sit still and be waited upon, And uw women nowadays, even if ther can, are willing to be nothing but dressed Gp puppets. Until tub dresses invaded the depart- ment stores the problem for the busy housewife as to what to wear in the mofuing was a difficult one, but a trip to any good shop today reveals piles of charming little dresses of gingham in pale blue or pink, with elbow sleeves | and rolling collars, costing about $2. Just such dresses as these enable some women to keep the regard of their hus- Lauds. Now I am going to sidetrack and | talk about the “barometer” girl. Do Fou happen to know her? I do, and | she changes her moods almost-as fast is the weather has been doing lately | and quite as disastrously for every one around her. ‘The worst of it all is that this girl so often stays “stormy” or “gloomy” for a long while. If you are her sis- | ter she is sure you do not understand } er, and if she bas a Jover she is sure ” he does not care for her as he used to. ° Let me whisper a word of advice in 3 your ear, Elsa, dear. Don't worry 3 about her moods too much. Behave toward her as usual and refuse to no- ‘ice that anything 1s amiss, and pity _ Hard Lines. Aboard the great ship the silence of despair reigned, Sbe bud struck on an unebaried reef, and, owing to the heavy sea, the boats had either been stove in against the ship's side or swamped In the attempt to lower.

Why, you great lubberly brute, I believe You're the biggest coward aboard!” “Ssh! No, I'm not.” protested the burly one. “But, look bere. You see that old duffer standing by the rail? Well, he’s my rich uncle, and all my life I've had to put up with bis cussed cantankerousness, But if the ship's going down and there’s no hope I'd like time to give him one good, sound belting to square the little account 1 owe him! Just then a rescue ship appeared on the scene, and above the joyful sbout the raucous voice of the old man by the rail was beard, commanding bis dutiful nephew to fetch his hot water bottle from his waterlogged stateroom. = Gallant Claude Duval. 9 Claude Duval, the gallant robber of men's purses and ladies’ hearts, was of French extraction. Duval became fo rich with his ill gotten gains tbat he was enabled to retire from the pro- fessiou and return to France. But a quict life, free from the excitement of bis old career, did uot agree with his adventurous spirit He returned again to England and resumed his avo- cation. At length he was captured at the Hole in the Wall, im Chandos street, While in prison awaiting his dodm many ladies of position visited him and endexvored to obtain bis release, but justice was inevorable, and he was banged at ‘Tyburo in January. 1670. His epitaph in St. Paul's church, Covent Garden, speaks of him as “Old Tyburn's glory, England's illustrious thief.” and tells us: Here lies Duval.

A foreign railway company has solved the plan of getting good shade trees in a short time, though they may be smal}. ‘The trees are so arranged that after two years’ time they will give as much shade as trees in the ordinary w: v of setting out would give that are fifteen or twenty years old. The company gets a small elm tree, preferably. digglog this. roots and all. from the ground. The tree then is set. the top part being set into the ground, and the roots are left in the air. The, tree then grows. forms roots on what originally was the top of a tree, and the origipal roots that now take the place of the branches begin to leaf out and form a complete’ foliage very quickly. Beautiful specimens of such inverted trees are to be seen by the fountains in Kensington gardens, Lov- don.—New York Press. in Cites: ie Ne The stone age, bronze age and iron age so overlap one another it is 1m- possible to say just when one begins or ends. {Men began to use both bronze and iron long before stone bad ceased to be used. In fact. America was in the stone age s0 late as its discovery by Columbus 400 yeurs‘ago.

It is more than likely that men gained their first Information concerning the prop- erties of iron through experiments with the pieces of it that had fallen from the sky in the shape of meteors. Our Names Lack “Color.” At an early period, and indeed well toward the beginning of modern his- tory, proper names told something as to paternity, occupation and habitation. ‘Today they are quite colorless.

First—A edt with 2 large - body and an especially targe ; middle piece as this indicates a ; capacity for eating and digest- ; ing lots of food, - Second.—a thinly fleshed back- - bone. ‘I'his indicates that the » food is not madé into flesh. - Third—A large udder, as it is " here that the milk fs made. | Fourth—Milk wells that are - large. It 1s through the milk ; wells that the blood returns to "the heart ‘from the udder. If | they are large it indicates that there is a large amount of blood - passing through the udder. | Fifth. — Large, clear eyes. ; which are an indication of good | nerves. Good nerves are essen- , tlal because they drive the or- ; gans of digestion and milk mak- ing. ; Add to the dairy of cows se- - lected on this basis, the scales | and the Babcock test. and suc- - cess is assured. FOOT ROT IN SHEEP. Winter the Best Season to Eradicate ‘This Troublesome Disease, Foot rot in sheep is more common and more virulent on level land than among the hills, says W. N, Cowden in the National Stockman. Indeed it of- ten dies out on sandy bill land. As fs well kiiown the disease is caus- ed by an insect, very minute. that com- mences in the cleft of the foot and burrows along between the ball of the foot and the bony hoof, produces an irritation and lameness, loss of flesh and if, in fly time. not treated the blow fly awill end its miserable exist- ence. The life history of this parasite is not known. Where it undergoes its other transformations, as do all other invertebrate anfinals, is not known. Frosty weather is the best time and the right time to eradicate the disease. Begin by paring off all lfoof and dis- eased tissue, but avoid drawing blood. All depends on the thorough paring. Then apply any insecticide hereafter mentioned: Blue vitriol, turpentine, car- volic acid, peroxide of hydrogen, red precipitdte and most of the sheep dips in their undiluted form. ‘The most common application is blue vitriol finely pulverized and mixed with lard and applied with a little pad- dle. If the case fs a very bad one I would add a little carbolic acid to the vitriol. If many affected sheep in the flock treat every sheep in the flock, always disinfecting the knife after paring ap a ie. 4 Basa.

The ewes are owned by Hen- ry L. Wardwell, Pinehurst farm, New York. His flock won every first prize, all seconds except two and four champion prizes at the New York state fair last fall. Mr. Wardwell's eahibits won more money and prizes at the Jast two International shows than any other flock of Shropshires shown. affected hoof. Why treat the Sheep showing uo lameness? Because the disease may be in the sheep several | days before it can be seen in the cleft of the foot. Occasionally a clubfooted sheep will be found that is so nearly incurable that it is economy to kill it. Sheep after treatment should be put on short pasture or on 2 clean floor. If the first treatment has been thor- ough in about two weeks every boot should be again examined and treated as before if the disease is found. ‘The presence of the disease is always ac- companied with some fever in the foot. A trough of. quicklime for them to iwalk through each day would proba- bly obviate this last treatment. To disinfect a building clean out every particle of manure and cover floor with lime; also whitewash or use carbolic acid on the racks and walls. ‘The claim that the coarse wools are exempt is not correct. They take the disease as readily as‘ the fine wools and die much sooner, but on account of the shape of hoof are more easily cured. Fall Freeh Cows. | Spring fresh cows yield most of their milk when low prices prevail for dairy products and the dairyman {s busiest with the crops. In winter such cows yield-only 2 small flow of milk at most. On the other hand, a fall fresh cow gives a large supply of milk dur- ing the winter and flushes again with the stimulus of pasture'in springtime. Fall fresh cows should annually yield froyi 10 to 15 per cent more milk than those calving In the spring.

Wrigh erty Kh Wright Proprietor 517 WEST BROAD ST - - « - SAVANNAH GA, The business of obtaining amber from the ocean has been for long a state monopoly in Prussia. The chief center of the industry fs in the proy- ince of eastern Prussia. The gathering of the umber goes on throughout the year, but Jt iy most profitable at the time of the equinoctial storms, when the winds and the waves throw it ashore. After a storm the fisbermen drag the beach, They deposit the haul upon the strand, where the wom- en and children pick out the pleces of amber from among the seaweeds. The pieces are assorted according to size, color and form. The value of x piece of amber is enhanced when it bears the impressions of plant or animal substances. The prices of the pieces vary from about 13 cents to 75 cents. but may reach to $100 or more. The price per pound runs from about $1.25 to $7.50, A very large plece sometimes attains the weight of sixteen or seven- teen ounces. ‘The color is most com- monly the familiar yellow, but it may be reddish brown or emerald green or creamy color and some pleces are quite white. The total yleld is valued at $1,500,000 a year.—Harper’s Weekly. A Hint To The Wise Is Sufficient The Brotherhood Union. At Masonic Temple : Tuesday night March 11, 1913 ADMISSION ‘ A 25 CENTS ALBERT MORRIS, CHAIRMAN Long Arm of Coincidence. An amusing story from the suburbs concerns a householder who recently bought two theater tickets for his wife and himself, but inadvertently invited another married couple to spend the same evening at bis‘house. When the mistake was discovered it was decided to hand the tickets to another friend rather than ask the expected guests to come on a subsequent evening. But the man to whom the tickets were given was called out of town, and be in turn harriedly handed them over to 4 near neighbor, suggesting the latter should take his wife to the play. Nov. this is where the long arm of coincl- dence comes in. ‘The near neighbor and his wife were the invited guests of the purebaser of the tickets. They thought it would be a pity to tose the chance of such a fine dramatic treat. and, not knowing the real origin of the tickets. they wrote a note explaining the situation and used the two seats which their hosts had meant for them- selves.—Glasgow News.
