VOLUME XXVIII A. B. Singfield Heads League A. B. Singfield Heads League PERMANENT ORGANIZATION FORMED Our Business Men Anxious For League's Success—Much Benefit Will Be Derived By Business Men—To Co-Operate With National Body. On last Tuesday night a meeting was held at the Wage Earners Bank, 468 West Broad street, to effect a permanent local Negro Business League. The meeting was a very enthusiastic one and the men all expressed themselves as being neatly in favor of a permanent organization in which they might meet and interchange ideas. The attendance at this meeting numbered about twenty and represented several lines of business. While it was hoped that many more would be out, yet on account of the fact that the meeting was not very widely advertised and that there were several other important meetings in the city at the hour which this meeting was scheduled to take place, the attendance was very gratifying. The temporary body which was organized last week was made permanent and the two officers, A.G. Singfield and W. W. Hill who were head of that body were unanimously retained in their respective offices, president and recording secretary. In addition to these J. C. Lindsay was elected first vice president; J. H. Washington, treasurer; W. S. Scott, corresponding secretary, and J. H. Butler, compiler. There are to be other offices of the League filled, but it was thought best by those present to defer this until a subsequent meeting when a large attendance will be out. The local league will of course co-operate with the National Negro Business League, to whom it has already applied for a charter. The business men of the city are hoping to be greatly benefited by the formation of this organization, and many who were not at the meeting Tuesday night have expressed a desire to be present at the next meeting Tuesday night. April 15th, at the Wage Earners Bank at 8 o'clock. Mr. G. H. Bowen Moves Into Larger Quarters P. H. During the present week, Mr. G. H. Bowen, the real estate dealer, moved his office from 500 West Broad street to 457 West Broad street. The new quarters into which Mr. Bowen has moved was a two story dwelling prior to a few weeks ago, and Mr. Bowen has transformed the building in one which will be used for business purposes strictly. The entire ground floor will be taken by him and the upper floor will be let out as offices. By this change in quarters Mr. Bowen now has three large and well equipped rooms for his business. Mr. Bowen's short business career in this city, being only about three years, has been very marked, and the success which has attended his transactions here has placed him in the foreground as a real estate dealer. Mr. John N. Cherry, of Jacksonville, Fla., was in the city last week. The Savannah Over Home News Beaufort, S.C. Mrs. Lambright of Kansas City, Mo., who is visiting at Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Wright's on North street, seems much charmed with Beaufort's climate. Mrs. Annie Singleton has returned to Beaufort after spending a very pleasant time with friends in Savannah. Mr. James Alexander was in Beaufort for a few days last week. He is located at Savannah for a few months. He has some large contracts there. Hon Edward Wallace made a flying trip to Atlanta last week to attend the G. A. R. Department of Georgia. He was elected vice commander. He also paid a visit to Tuskegee, Ala. Mrs. Irene Moultrie was in the city for a few days this week. Beaufort has a peculiar charm for the "Over Homers." Mrs. Manie Izzard of Charleston dropped in the city Saturday and returned Monday. She speaks very high of her old home. Mr. W. H. Wright, one of Beaufort's leading young men who has been a member of the firm of C. M. English & Co. of Charleston for quite a number of years, has accepted a position in Columbia, S. C. He leaves a host of friends in Charleston. We hope him success in his new field of labor. The Knights of Pythias and Courts of Calanthe and the uniform rank, turned out in great style on Sunday March 30th, in spite of the inclement weather, at the hour appointed. The courts met the lodges and uniform rank at the Grace A. M. E. church, where Rev. Jennings delivered the thanksgiving sermon. Mrs. E. G. Bascomb of Queen Rosa Court read a paper on the "Duty of the Couris." Mrs. Rosa Williams left the city this week to spend a few weeks with friends in Savannah. St. Helena Island and Beaufort were somewhat excited for the past two weeks. On Saturday night March 29th, Mr. J. R. Cooler, dispensary constable for Beaufort county, while walking along with his assistant, Mr. Josh Deans, very near the corner store on St. Helena Island, was shot down with buck shots from ambush. The news quietly spread over Beaufort. Mr. Cooler was taken into the store of Waterhouse & Co., and Dr. T. W. Bailey, a colored doctor from the island, was called in and gave him all the aid in his power, assisted by Mrs. Maggie Wright, a trained nurse from Penn school. By the time two doctors arrived from Beaufort to the island, all was done for him that was possible. So the party returned to Beaufort com implating to take Mr. Cooler over to Savannah for treatment. Before they reached Beaufort he died. His remains were brought over here Sunday morning. On Monday Sheriff M. O. D. White arrested David Reynolds and Jasper Green suspected of complicity in the murder. On Thursday afternoon twenty or more armed men from Blufiton and Jasper county, started to Beaufort with the purpose of lynching the two prisoners. They came as far as Burton, just three miles from Beaufort, intending to march into Beaufort, storm the jail and take out the two prisoners. Incoming persons reported the matter to Sheriff White who wired the governor asking him to order out the local military company. In less than fifteen minutes the order came back to Capt. H. E. Townsend to order them out. In that time Messrs. H. T. Danner, E. H. Christensen and Sheriff White had the two prisoners on board the Violet enroute for Charleston. The mob was disarmed and forced to return to their homes the next morning, and Beaufort still holds her record for law and order. Too much cannot be said of the coolness of Sheriff White. His remarks were "if they take them, it will be over my dead body" Sheriff White landed the two prisoners in the Columbia penitentiary for safe keeping. Gov. Please compliment him for his actions. The colored citizens of Beaufort and St. Helena Island are doing all in their power to assist the local authorities. The people of Beaufort county and of all South Carolina should rejoice SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, SATURDAY, APRIL 12, 1913 Rev. Joshua A. Brockett Dismissed PULPIT DECLARED VACANT BY MASS. AVE. CHURCH Member After Member Spoke in Censure of Pastor-Deacons who Upheld Him Scored and Confessed Mistake Seldom have Baptist churches witnessed such church meetings as the one held last Tuesday evening at the Massachusetts Avenue Baptist church, Cambridge. The very large attendance was inspiring, the wholesome spirit of unity of purpose never surpassed and withal not an offending word nor dissenting vote or voice was forthcoming during the whole of the three and one-half hour session. The doings of the former pastor, Rev. J. A. Brockett, were minutely discussed. Letters to him by members of the church were read, communications of various kinds were read and discussed, and acted upon. Mr. Brockett's record was handled without gloves, but so were the records of the men who gave him authority and are jointly responsible for the awful condition of the church at this time. They admitted their mistakes, confessed their wrongs manfully in a Christian spirit and and forgave. Reviewing the record of the business end of the church, Trustee C. R. Cain showed so plainly the underworld dealings of the reverend that when his remarks were closed on a motion by Bro. J. S. Lee, it was unanimously voted by a standing vote "that the Massachusetts Avenue Baptist pulpit be declared vacant." Committees were appointed to wait on the doctor and notify him of the decision of the church and also to demand an accounting for two years and return the books, the property of the trustee board. The church is to be complimented for the great stand for principle and for retiring the reverend without fuss or trouble, giving him the same. dose he caused to be handed our former pastor, Rev. J. H. Carter. When another pastor is called he will have a different platform and whoever thinks he must handle the business and finance of this church need not apply, for this people has learned its lesson too well by bitter experience ever to be caught napping again.

Thomasville, Ga., April 8.—The citizens of the Dry Lake neighborhood of Thomas county have publicly denounced the sending recently of a Black Hand letter to G. W. Marrable, a well known Negro farmer of that section of the county and condemn the action as outrageous and barbaric. The letter in question was received through the mail by Marrable and he was given ten days to leave his home with a threat as to summary steps to be taken should he not do so. A few days after the receipt of the letter a lot of fencing belonging to Marrable was burned subjecting him to much loss and inconvenience. It is stated that Marrablé has lived in the Dry Lake neighborhood for about six years and is considered a peaceful, law abiding Negro, well liked by the white people of that section and in view of it they take occasion to express their public disapproval of any acts of violence towards him. Air Dome. Mr. Baker, Manager of the Air Dome, announces that the architect is working on the plans for the New Air Dome. He says it is impossible to improve the pictures so the next step will be to improve the theatre. over the prevention of the crime against society that was prevented by a conscientious and courageous official, Sheriff White, and the support that was given him by the state authorities. Let it be said that this example will be precedent in South Carolina. New Georgia Infirmary To Have 120 Beds ONE OF FINEST HOSPITALS IN THE CITY Equipment of New Hospital to Cost About $15,000-New Hospital to be Situated in Brownsville At a meeting of the board of managers of Georgia Infirmary on last Monday afternoon the special committee which was created some time ago to purchase a new site and arrange for the erection of a new hospital reported that it had purchased from the Minis Estate lots on 34th street between Burroughs street and the Ogeechee road. The price which it is reported was paid for the site is $8,000. The committee also advised the erection of a hospital containing about 120 beds and stated that the equipment will cost about $15,000. The single building idea will be carried out in the erection of the new hospital as it is stated this will be the most convenient and most economical in management. In this arrangement the best results can be more-easily obtained and the danger minimized. It is stated that the building will be three stories high and that plans for the building will soon be provided. For the past two or three years, especially since the city has been built up around the present site of the hospital, there have been many protests against the hospital remaining there, those in the immediate vicinity claiming that it should be in a Negro settlement since it is a Negro institution. This agitation against the institution was waged from time to time and the decision of the board of managers to build in a Negro section of the city was the result. Madame Booker's Charming Recital. I The recital by Madame Dayse Walker-Booker, of Indianapolis, Ind., at St. Philip church, Charles and West Broad streets, on last Monday night, was one of the most charming and delightful affairs which has ever been given in this city. The recital was to have been held at the Second Baptist church, but a change was necessitated on account of the death of one of the deacons of that church, and St. Philip church was selected. In spite of this change, which came at the last moment, a crowd of about five hundred was out. Madame Booker's numbers were all very excellently rendered, and she demonstrated beyond a doubt that she is one of the most finished readers which the race affords- The local talent which assisted Madame Booker was at its best, and they all acquitted themselves very creditably. That Madame Booker has been greatly appreciated by the citizens of Savannah has been demonstrated by the large audiences that have greeted her on every occasion. Her lectures and also recitals have been more highly appreciated and more widely commented upon than those of any other woman of the race who has ever appeared here. Dr. W. T. Pritchett of Augusta, spent the week in the city. Tribune Negroes As Colonial Judges. The picture of Sir Rufus Isaacs in this morning's paper brings to my mind another picture, which may be seen in almost any part of the British Empire where civilized Negroes live—the spectacle of a man as black as the ace of spades, or with the features of a mulatto, wearing the flowing wig and other insignia of the coveted K. C. Sometimes, too, a colored man is a Magistrate or an Attorney-General and in Barbadoes, where a white aristocracy as old and as proud as anybody in Massachusetts or Virginia had grown to regard the office of Chief Justice as its especial perquisite, it was given as the reward of indisputable merit to a son of slaves—Sir William Conrand Reeves. The American public should not be too ready to accuse the English of race prejudice in the extermination of Sir Rufus. It should be remembered that Disraeli became Prime Minister of England long before Oscar Straus received a minor Cabinet office in the United States. It may be that some persons in England object to the appointment of a Jew as Lord Chief Justice, but the Isaacs affair is probably rather an attempt of the Opposition to usurrect the Asquith Government. Whatever may be the outcome of the scandal, it is certain that the cautious, slow-moving British people will not be fooled into any Jewbaiting, for with all his foibles the Englishman can always be trusted to recognize ability and to reward honesty and patriotism wherever he finds them. The West African blacks, Sir Samuel Lewis, John Mensah Sarbah, C. M. G., and J. R. Maxwell are not the exceptions which prove this rule as applied to lawyers. The American critics of Lord Robert Cecil and Mr. Faber would do well to consider how the Bar Association weeded out the first belated Negro members of this "Ring's counsel" in a Republic and provided against the coming of another congener of Sir Conrad Reeves; consider also how the leaders of the now Democracy have ousted the lone colored Assistant Attorney-General without the show of "outward order and decency" which Mayor Gaynor would have us observe in immoral transactions. Then, perhaps, we may be able to set an example to John Bull in the ethips of race relations. James E. Clarke James E. Clarke New York, March 31. Fisk Wins Debate From Atlanta In the seventh annual Atlanta-Fisk debate last Friday night in Ware Memorial Chapel, Atlanta University, Atlanta, Ga., Atlanta was defeated. The opening speeches were limited to eighteen minutes, and the closing to five minutes. The question debated was: "Resolved. That the United States tariff should be reduced to the basis of tariff for revenue only." Fisk University who had the affirmative was represented by Earnest Lucien Byrnes, Chattanooga, Tenn.; Manshield Edward Jackson, Nashville, Tenn.; and Atlanta-University, debating the negative side, was represented by Eugene Heriott Dibble, Camden, S. C.; Asa Hines Gordon, Monticello, Ga. Since the granting of a charter to the Standard Life Insurance Company the other day, it has become known that the company would be represented in this city and the surrounding territory by Mr. Geo. W. Jacobs, the real estate dealer. The Standard Life Insurance company is the only old line company conducted by Negroes and that it will find a fruitful field in Savannah is a foregone conclusion. Mr. Jacobs will have under him when the company starts its business here several young men. Mrs.John Ferrill of 531 $ \frac{1}{2} $ Charles street, spent the week in Bainbridge, visiting her son, Mr. Chas. Ferrill, who will leave for Chicago in a few days. NUMBER 30 Interest Children's Races Grows Interest Children's Races Grows TICKET CONTEST STARTS TUESDAY AFTERNOON Rules to be Observed by Competitors in Races—Subscriptions to be Gathered Next Week-Over One Hundred Dollars Raised. The Negro school children's races which will be held at the baseball park on the first Friday in May are growing in interest every day. This can partly be accounted for by the wide publicity which the affair is being given by the members of the Negro Business and Professional Men's Association, the organization under whose auspices the races will be run, and by the attractive placards announcing the event which are to be found in every section of the city, but more particularly by the hundreds of boys who are going to compete against one another and the little girls who will cheer them on. During the week application for entrance to the races was received from six little boys who wish to represent the Wheat Hill school which is situated at the Five Mile Bend near the Augusta Road on a road connecting this road to the Louisville Road. These little fellows in their application have made it known in no uncertain terms that they are expecting to give a good account of themselves in the races that they will enter and that Wheat Hill will have much reason for rejoicing when they return home with their victories on the evening of races. The ticket selling contest which will be conducted among the girls will begin Tuesday afternoon. All those who enter the contest will apply Monday to the principals of their respective schools, or some one authorized by them to grant them permission to enter, so that they may all get their tickets at the same time Tuesday. This contest was waged between the boys last year and was a very spirited one. The honor of winning last year's race fell to Andrew McDowell of the East Broad street school, with James Hart of the West Broad street school a close second. The prizes for this contest will be very attractive and will be on exhibition the latter part of next week or the first part of the following week. Considerable interest is being shown by the boys in the probable highest individual point winner this year. Richard Erwin, the winner of this contest last year will make a strenuous effort to repeat this year, but he will have a far more formidable field to beat this year than last. The one particular race which seems to be attracting the most interest so far is the 120 yard hurdle. Perhaps the brilliant performance of the boys in this race last year, is responsible for interest which is being manifested in this event and it is certain that the youngster who, breaks the tape in this event will have clipped a second or more from last year's time. The total amount which has been subscribed for purchasing prizes is something over a hundred dollars and the names of those who have given to this fund will appear in next week's issue of this paper. The subscriptions will be collected Monday and Tuesday. Some of the rules governing the meet are as follows: (1) Only boys who are properly uniformed may compete. (2) Only amateurs shall be eligible to compete. (3) Competitors shall report to the call of each event. (4) In straightway races any competitor who crosses the path of another shall be disqualified. (5) Any competitor who wilfully jostles or interferes with an appoinent in any manner, shall be disqualified. (6) No competitor shall be considered to have finished until his entire body shall have crossed the finish line. Mr. Chas. A. Clarke of Brunswick, passed through the city enroute home on Wednesday.

O. Sherman, and throughout the many things that were going on. baptism, fellowshipping of mem- bers, communion and various other things, every servive, were carried out under the great strain of hearing of the demise of our beloved and faithful friend. Miss Sherman was buried * Monday afternoon, with all honors that could be bestowed upon the faithful. Many testimonies were made of her life, and many of the ministers of the city were present at the funeral service and many spoke. Miss Sherman was organ- ist of the church, teacher and assistant organist of the Sunday school, a faithful worker in every departinent of the church and a consistent christian. Mr. J. S.

When Bishop Berry of the Methodist Episcopal church was a young preach: er he once gave ‘a lecture in a rural community. Wisbing to be witty. he announced to bis audience that he was a berry and called apon them to state what kind of berry. Nearly every ber- ry known in the vicipity was guessed. and the speaker refused to share the qualities of any of those named.’ At last an old lads who was not sympa- thetic with the seeming levity of the lectureg arose and exclaimed in x squeaky voice: “I know what kind of a berry you are.

But the great fact is that Jacob saw a way of access from earth .to heaven, angels ascending and de- scending, and he heard Jehovah fron: the top of the ladder talking, to him most graciously and in such words as no mortal could expect or ‘by aay means deserve. * Because of Jacob's unworthiness and the wondrous grace of God notwitb- standing even I have ventured to ap- propriate and have proved in world- wide journeyings the comfort of verse 15. * ‘The Lord, who stood above the lad- der and spoke the words of love and Erace, no doubt referred to that night and that event when he said to Na- thanael, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, Hereafter ye shall see heaven open and the angels of God ascending and de<cending upon the Son of Man” (Joln i, 51). Some day when the New Jerusalem shall haye taken its place over the carth and the elect eburets florified and the elect Israel all right- cous and the holy angels shall all be in perfect nccord With the Lord in ad-. ministering the affairs of the kingdom we may think of and understand this vision more fully. Meantime let us think of Dim who is “the way, the, truth, the life,”"who becaine man for us. The ladder was set up on the earth. It starts from just where you are. You may’ step on it if you will, but it must be with both feet, clean off the earth, actually in Christ. It reaches heavei; it is not too short. To mount day by day we must look up steadfastly and see Him who is in heaven for us. Run with patience, looking unto Jesus. The angels will be always ministering (Heb. xii, 1, 2; 1, 14). Notice the four “beholds” of verses 12, 13, 15. Between the time of Jacob's leaving home and this night's experience it looks as if the Spirit had been working some true. penitence in Jacob's heart, and this special revelation and message was the result of it. When we turn home- ward the Father always runs to meet us, according to Luke xv, 20. Such overwhelming grace made Ja- cob feel somewhat as Simon Peter did when the Lord filled the ships with fishes and Peter said, “Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord!” (Luke v, 8) We do well to remem; | ber that the Lord is ever with us and | that every place with Him may be to us the house of God and the gate of heaven. _ ‘The pillow becoming an anointed pillar and the fact that believers are called stones (I Pet. ii, 5) suggest that instead of being prone upon the earth we may become upright, ano{nted liv- ing stones to the glory of God. Jacob's vow in verses 20 to 22 may be good or not so good. If he is bar gaining with God after all the gra- cious assurances, as our authorized ver- sion would seem to indicate, then his Yanguage and his spirit were poor in- adced. But if he sald, “Since, on seeing that, God will be with me’ (verse 20), his words are better. He bas been con- sidered by some a very mean man, but if any who read these words do not give the Lord at Jeast a tenth of their in- come are they not meaner than Jacob? No further incident of his journey is mentioned, but he certainty had enough to think about and to com B PATE’S DRUG STORE ¥® Geo. Pate, Proprietor .

By means of flexions and contortions that have been practiced from a very early age the spinal cord has been converted into what is to all intents and purposes a rubber tube. He can throw his head low enough to put his neck between his legs and bend his back into a bow almost as complete as that of the fire-side cat. A medical man has classified these dislocations and says that the digestion of such men is almost always perfect, provided they do not carry their exercises to excess. He thinks the circulation is stimulated to a degree where waste products of the body are more easily eliminated. -Harper's. SAVANNAH.

There was once a time though several years ago, when the Negro man cared not for the final disposition of the money he paid for his insurance, so long as he was assured that his sick and death benefits would be paid in due time, but since he has become able to guide his reasons discretionately in the general knowledge of things, he finds himself confronted with this question: Since the Negro furnishes the bulk of money by which to operate a certain class of industrial insurance, the benefits of which are used for the creating of positions to which he knows his children can never hope to enjoy, then why not become jealous and only support those companies, such as the brilliant Georgia Mutual, that are now giving employment to Negro men and women as a perpetual division to the success to which he has so freely contributed?

Parents and guardians should be greatly interested in the school census that will be soon taken. They should endeavor to answer all questions intelligently and give all possible assistance to those in charge of the work. It is impera- tive that each Negro ene of school age be recorded and the on- ly way this can be done is that their parents or those in charge of them yive the solicitars the de- sired-information. er. It is indeed with a feeling of re- gret commingled with disgust that we note the present tactics of mud- slinging now being indulged in by the editors of the New York Age and Amsterdam News in their present tirade against each other. While we do not condone crime nor harbor criminality in any re- spect, at the same time, we do not tail to see the folly as well as the despicableness of presenting to the gaze of our critics, the family sketches of one especially when the occasion does not demand it. In their present tirade against each, other, the editors of our two great weeklies wili do well to re- member the saying of Kansas’ once famous yovernor who re- minded us that there was so much good in the worst of us that it hardly behooved any of us to talk about the rest of us. -The world knows too much of our faults now and too little of our virtues. Let us emphasize and “adyertise our virtues more and our Hiults less and we shall find that Sous journey upward as.individuals aid as 4 race will be moremarked. 4 ivis indeed a fact which resists successful disputation that the older the world becomes. the more stringent does it make its efficien- cy test for those of its inhabitants who seek place_and honor within her borders. Less and less as time moves on does the situation obtain which allows the men to seek the job., On the other hand, it is the job, nowadays, which seeks the man, the man who is cf- ficient and capable: the man who by thorough preparation has made himself fit fora position of re- sponsibility in the body politic or some other phase of the world’s great uctivities. Favorite sons and daughters can no longer count their birth or family connections or'the fatness of the pocketbooks as the only necessary asset for place and power among their fel- lowmen. ‘The world is asking to- day, What can hedo und bow well can he do it?) What is his pre- paration? To what degree does his efficiency extend? Is he a master workman? Can he do his work better than the other fellow? ‘These are the questions which the world is asking today of every one, without exception, who knocks at her doors and asks for aD opportunity to make a living. ‘The rich man is gauged by this test; the poor man as well. No one canescape. Thisis the decree of the twenticth century; the cen- tury of struggle and fierce com- petition; the period in which the Jaurels of victory and success are only allowed to grace the brow of him who labors hard and long to excel. AS to how many of our people there are who realize the above, it isa question. There are undoubtedly some among us who do. There are many among us do not. Howbeit, the test re- mains the same. Each of us must measure up to it sooner or later. Careless aud indifferent service is no longer tolerated. Ignorance and incapability are no longer co-part- ners to success in any vocation. The man who succeeds must be able “to deliver the goods,” and to deliver them properly. That the foregoing may become a widespread reality, is a situation which our schools have no little to . bring about. The students in our schools must be schooled in eflicien- cy first, last and all the time. If they are to drive a nail, lay a brick, stitch o sole, curea fever, draw up a brief, or what not, they ought be madg to so perform the task before them that ‘their word will stand the most critical test to which it may be put. The world today has no tolerance or smpathy for inefficiency. It is crying louder and louder and in every di- rection, for éfficiency and more efficiency. Let our young men re- member this and in_ preparing themselves for their life’s work may théy see to it that they bend their energies unstintingly in every direction that promises to them the efliciency which the world now demands. It will be a good thing for each of our young men to re- member this. important and far reaching sleps yet undertaken by the Negro in the commercial and financial lifo of the nation was made a few days ago, when-the Standard Life In- surance Company, the first old line Negro insurance company of the world, with a capital of $100,000, opened itsdoors for bus- jiness with headquarters in our capital city, Atianta, Ga. The suc- [cessful launching of this old line company by Negroes is indeed an [epoch making event in the history of the race. ‘That the movement will Ge a*success, is a foregone conclusion. ‘he personnel of its officers and board of directors, is x» Surety against failure. They are, without exceptions, successful business men ef wide and varied experience. They are men who have done and are doing things that count in their respective communities. ‘Chey are men¢who have merited and won the esfeemm and respect of the best and “most influential people of their respec- tive communities. Thus their suc- cess as individuals. And now also collectively. Our people through- out the country ought to rally ‘to the support of this new institution among us. Every household should have among its possessions at least one policy bearing the im- print of the Standard Life Insur- ance Company. ‘The -Standard Life Insurance Company is an or- ganization composed of Negro business men and giving employ- ment to Negro boys and_ girls, and men and women. In order for this policy of giving émployment to our people to be continued, the company must receive the proper support from our people, for it is our people to whom they must look for their business. The hold- ing of another policy with another compuny ought not to be suflicient ground for any one to take in order to justify nimself in not tak- ing out a policy with the Standard Life. It is the duty of each one todo so. The Tribune extends to the Standard Life Insurance Com- pany its heartiest congratulations land wishes for it the most abun- dant success. Long -live the Standard Life Insurance Company, because it is, the first old line Ne- gro insurance company organized in the world and because the char- ter bears the seal of our own great State of Georgia. How well those behind the Standard Life Insurance Company have wrought and what encouragement they are precelving at the hands of the well disposed white citizens ih the sofith, may he gleaned from the following editorial clipped froma recent issue of the Atlanta Consti- tution: PROGRESS THAT COUNTS - Nothing less than an epoch in the material history of southern Negro'is comprised in the organi- zation and chartering, by Comp- troller General Wright, of the Standard Life Insurance company, with H. E. Perry as president and representative Negroes through- out the south on its board of trus- tees. The company is the first old line organization in the world or- ganized by Negroes to do business among Negroes. Organized with a capital of $100,000 its promotion expenses were only 8 per cent and its total organization expenses on- ly 2 percent. Even these costs were paid out of the premiums upon its paid in stock subscrip- tions, the sale of the stock resliz- ing $138,000. During its as yet brief history ithas already written policies to the amount of $400,000. The final test of the company’s worth is that it qualified for a li- cense under the new insurance laws of the state, umong the most drastic in America. ‘This means that the company bears the state's sovereign approval as a bona fide, responsible organization, without “taint of “blue sky:” Complet- ing the guarantees of the com- bags s0lvenry # its action of de- positing in the state treasury $100,000 forth of gilt edge Gaon: ee ei ee the south are glad toaid,as is proven by the large file of - letters of endorsement recvived by the trustees of this new company from many of the south's most promi- nent business men. The launch- ing of the company under these particular auspices is nothing less than a milestone in theupward his- tory of the race. It illustrates what the Negro can do for himself.

EXAMINE THE ‘UDDER WHEN BUYING A COW It is not only important to recognize the; good,and bnd points of a dairy cow’s udder by the eye, but it’is even more jmportant to be able properly to examine the udder with the hands, writes Dr. A. S. Alexander in the Farm Journal. When buying a cow the eye tells one whether the four quarters are of like size. development and appear- ance. If one quarter looks to be larger than another one may suspect that dis- case is present or that the cow has had an attack of garget (mamuitis), but the hand must be used to corrobo- rate what the eye suspects. On handling the udder it will be found that a sound gland bas 2 spongy, elastic, remlient feel. ‘The glands should be absolutely free from Larden- ed, Indurated, abnormal lumps, masses, tumors or srowths. Tuberculosis of the udder is commonly indleated by the presence of a Targe. bard mass high up in the rear portion of the udder. No trace of this may be apparent to the eye, but fs readily detected by the hand. On no account should 2 cow be used if such tubercular gland exists. Testing with tuberculin will tell whether or not 2 cow is tuberculous; but, unfortunately, trickery is some- times practiced, and the tuberculin test sheet supplicd by the seller never should take the place of a physical and manual examination. If even 2 simall, hard mass is found In any part of one quarter It indicates that the cow has at some time or an- st bee’ e i ie, Woy 9: RELIED rae 3 Saat te erage ene In one year she produced 27,422 pounds of milx, containing 998.26 sore or tes ae ea Hes as of eee ee Wisconsin experiment station. Co- lantha LV.'s Johanna Is owned by the Springvale stock farm, Rosen- 1 ere isa manana other suffered a slight attack of garget, and in our experlence one attack, how- ever glight, will almost invariably be followed by another more severe at- tack, and eventually the cow may be come useless by reason of repeated at- ‘tacks of garget. The hard mass’ con- sists of scar tissue or tumor tissue, which is tuking the place of true gland tissue which normally secretes milk. Scar tissue performs no such function, and such a portion of the udder 1s use- Jess. When one quarter of the udder is entirely taken up by tumor tissues It wholly loses its funetion of milk production. Few men would buy a cow for dairy purposes on finding one quarter spoiled, but most men forget to look’ for the small tumor masses which indicate with certainty the prob- ability of subsequent attacks of garget which may render the animal useless. Manual examination of the udder also “discovers difficult milkers, wart covered teats or ulcerated sores—which cause the coty to rebel when milked— and Indications of cowpos, fistula or false openings of the milk duct, eracks, chaps and other troublesome abnor- malities of the skin. Without manual examination one also will be unlikely to notice, if it exists, the presence of, a chronic sore high ap between the udder and the flank or between the Salves of the udder, yet such sores are common and praetically incurable and giye rise to a fetid color which is most otfectionabie in a cow that fs to pro- duce sanitary milk, It always pays to sit doyyn and handle most carefully the udder of the heifer or freshening cow. The Work Horse In Spring. ‘The good teamster keeps the harness properly adjusted-in every particular at all times. If the animals shrink in flesh the collars and harness are re- adjusted. This 1s*very essential for good work. Should the harness be too loose on top the collar will move back and forth and thus make a sore neck, and if too tight it will pinch and cause the same trouble. And if the harness is too long it will bring the draft too low down, thus causing the points of the shoulders.to become sore. Early in the season it is a good plan to remove the collars at noon, clean them and wash the shoulders with clean water. If the skin is broken : Uttle carbolated vaseline is a good healing remedy and prevents scars. A little alum in the water used in wash- ing the shoulders will help toughen them while they are being prepared for hard work. ‘The Silo For Beef Production. ‘The general adoption of the silo by the cattlemen of Texas and other range countries will probably baye a big influence on the cattle business in the corn felt states. When Texas and Arizona are suffitiently equipped with stios so that they can carry thelr cattle through the winters and through the ary, hot summers and put them on the market in good condition. it will no longer be necessary or even desirable for them to ship their cattle to the wheat flelds and pasture lands of Kan- sas or even to the feed lot of other corn belt states.—Kansas Farmer. | “ | STAKE NOTICE, FRIENDS! 3 -'There’s an old'‘saying, | 2 Y “Birdsof.a feather ~ 8 - flock together” > : : : mi ) .

Orange marmalade is an appetizing substitute for fresh fruit which, just when it is most craved, in the éaris spring, is scarcest. A tried recipe calls for a dozen large oranges sliced thin (using the skin), with seeds and core removed. To this add seven pounds of granulated sugar and boil until clear. Pack in glasses or white porcelain mar- malade jars, Another marmalade which will help make up for the absence of fresh fruit until berry season arrives is made of grapefruit. ‘To make it cover six small stapefruit with water and boil until soft, taking care when testing not to puncture the skins. Drain and set aside until cool enough to handle. Pare the grapefruit thin with a sharp knife and shred this rind. Cut fruit in two and remove pulp. ©id a quart of water to fire pounds of granulated sugar and boil clear. Adda rinds and boil ten minutes. then add pulp and boil until it will thicken when cooled.

A housekeeper who prides herseif on her excellent management gives the following secret of dusting: She alw:y> dips her dusters in paratiir oll after washing them and says it is really astonishing to find how much more ef- fective they are. This is only ‘one of the uuwerutts uses.to which she puts kerosene. A kerosene soaked rag removes all of the grease from the Kitchen sink and Teaves it bright and shining. In the same way her store Is kept clean. In speaking of stoves it is worth mentioning bere that vaseline is cun- sidered an excellent substitute for blackening for the gas range. After port on the range has been finished for the day 2 rag greased with vase- line should be rubbed over the rance inside and out. If this is dope while it is still warm, the gas baving been turned off, the effect is most satisfac- tory. Valuable Laundry Hints. Never put things out of hot starch through rubber wringers. It injures the rollers. A new stiff brush makes the best sprinkler for dampening clothes—better even than a tin salt sprinkler. Before washing lace curtains tack a strip of muslin along their outer edges and let it remain until they are dry. and you will thus avoid the usual trou- ble of sagging. Rubber rollers may be cleaned by rubbing them with a rag dipped in parrafin. The water in which rice has been boiled may be saved and used to stiffen small articles. This is worth noting by the bachelor girl who does her own cooking and also washes her own mus- lin collars, ete. These muslin ¢ollars, she should also remember, must be thoroughly dried «before being put away or they will turn Imp again. To these may be added.many scraps of valuable information for use ‘In the kitchen. To Clean Oilcloth. Oitcloth may be cleaned and bright- ened by washing with clear water in Which a Ittle borax has been dissolved. ‘Wipe with flannel that has been dip- ped into milk and wrung as dry as possible, or lukewarm water applied with a scrubbing brush will answer equally well, with a Bnal polish with a woolen cloth wrung out of skim milk. To clean paint provide a plate with some best quality of whiting and have ready some clean warm water and piece of flannel, whjch dip into the water and squeeze nearly dry; then take as much whiting as will adhere to the painted surface, when a little rubbing will instantly remove any dirt or grease; then wash the part well with clean water, rubbing it dry with a chamois, REE EEE EEE EE : THE BUTTERMAKER, : Keep the cream thoroughly - stirred while ripening. - The ‘barrel churn fs about the > best, farm churn, . : Strain all the cream ito the - churn and add the coloring “be- : fore beginning to churn? - Stop churning when the butter - granules form about the size of .

Some Troubles of the Flockmaster at Lambing Time. | {he time is about here when the flockmaster will have abundant oppor- tunity to efercise Job's crowning vir- tue. for the thing that calls for the most patient, persistent effort is the isowned lamb. The ewe that hasn't developed the motherly instiuet at the time of the birth of her lamb is often A most obstinate proposition, writes E. P.

Atantion tc Age | Among the Masons Some men are fonder of pretending knowledge than they are of searching for it, and some members of the Masonic fraternity are fonder of displaying their Masonic emblems than they are of hunting for the sublime Light and Truth of Freemasonry. Freemasonry is an institution calculated to benefit mankind, instituted by virtuous men, with the praiseworthy design of recalling to our remembrance the most sublime truths, in the midst of the most innocent and social pleasures founded on liberality brotherly love and charity.—Andrew Jackson. WHY IS IT? It is peculiar that in everyday Masonic life the teachings of the Craft are forgotten, and "envy, strife and bitterness" exemplified instead of charity and brotherly love. To differ with some against them for some petty office engendering hatred, and to thwart them in some pet scheme ensures a lifelong antigamy. Indeed certain brethren, when opposed in some trifling matter forget their obligations, and follow vindictively those who differ with them, in many instances long so far as to cause loss of position to the "offending" brother. This is a phaze of Masonic life that we have never been able to account for, as it is contrary to all the teachings of the Craft, and conduct the reverse of brotherly.—Freemason Freemasonry is the pioneer of civilization. It has a creed broad enough to embrace all that is good in all religions. It makes good citizens better ones under any form of government. It breaks down the barriers of birth, race, creed and tends to make all nations one great common nation. Who would not prefer to be a member of an organization that had its branches and alliances in all lands, embracing good men of every nationality, rather than of a high and excessive taste with narrowing creed of self-conceits, self-righteousness and self-sufficiency? What Freemasonry wants is a field of operation as broad as its principles, a career of aggressive charity harmonizing the warring element of society, substituting the arbitration of reason for that of the sword, and when wars comes, as they will, softening the asperities and animo-ries and staunching the wounds and relieving the sufferings they retail. There is a mission and a work for our noble institution at all times and all over the world. There is work enough, too, for all we can enlist and for all the allies we can gain. Our creed and professions are good. What is needed is that our career should correspond with our creed, our practice with our profession.—Samuel Ward, Montana. FREEMASONERY'S JEWELS I would in no way disparage or underestimate the value and importance of greater proficiency in the ritualistic work, but would urge and encourage a more general study of the work and lectures. Proficiency in the work is not only necessary, but indispensable, to maintain an active interest in and attendance upon the meetings of the subordinate lodges as well as for the development of the individual Mason. And yet Masonry in its broader meaning and purpose and in its moral aspect is infinitely superior to any system of signs and grips or secret work. The man who fails to appropriate its subline lessons of morality and virtue, of beaevolence and brotherhood, and make them a part of its mental and moral self falls far short of conjing up to the full requirements of Freemasonry. The man who hopes to become a full grown Mason must carry his Masonry in his heart rather than in his head; and that man whose life and conduct are not shaped and influenced by the lessons learned at the holy altar and illustrated and exemplified by the work and lectures, is a Mason in name only. It matters not how many degrees may have taken, nor how proficient he may be in the ritual, if these lessons have not quickened his sympathies, softened his heart toward his fellowmen and given him broader conceptions of his duty to those with whom he comes social and business contact, he is yet only ashlar, rough from mourry—not polished, squared tited to be used in our moral Masonic edifice. The self-beloved priest, when he saw the master who had fallen among us, offered no relief or even a kind of sympathy and comfort, passed on the other side, and Levite came and looked on him and went his way, not caring to extend the helping hand to one in dire distress and in sore need of help. But when a Samaritan saw him he went to him, bound his wounds, carried him to an inn, care him money and provided for his immediate want. The priest may have had all the degrees that had ever been devised, and the Levite may have been an accomplished ritualist, but it was the Samaritan who showed the true Masonic spirit. His sympathies went out to a brother in distress and he extended the helping hand. And I know of no apter illustration of the principles of Masonry than is found in the example of the Samaritans.

Imitation Diamonds. No imitation of the diamond is so brilliant as the skillfully cut piece of the kind of lead glass known in the trade as "paste." The play of color in these counterfeits is often very beautiful, but the glass "diamond" possesses no luster, this term being applied to the light reflected from the top surface of the gem. The flashes of light and color that give brilliance come from the interior, being thrown from the rear surface of the stone. The glass diamond is soft and is attacked chemically by a number of things with which it comes in contact by wear, for both of which reasons it soon becomes dulled. — Philadelphia Saturday Evening Post. The Need For Water Water constitutes about two-thirds of the weight of the body and enters into the composition of all the tissues and fluids. To keep the necessary proportion a large quantity needs to be ingested. One of the great dietetic errors is the neglect to take a sufficient quantity. The amount found in foods is insufficient, and about five cupfuls should be taken daily in beverages. A vegetable diet diminishes the need of water, while one composed largely of animal food increases this need. Mr. Cleveland's Portrait. During his first administration, says Hilary A. Herbert in the Century, Mr. Cleveland, disliking a certain portrait of himself painted at that time, had it relegated to the garret. President Harrison caused it to be brought down. In his second term Mr. Cleveland spoke jocularly of the portrait and asked Tom Reed if he did not think that one who had twice been elected president was entitled to have two portraits "Well, y-e-s." said Reed in his well known drawl. "if he has grown any handsomer." CANDY KID IS CUTE. Marshmallow, Raisins and Almonds Held Together by Teethpicks Barely together by toothpicks. Isn't this the cutest little candy kid you ever saw?

It is best to begin on the legs and arms first, and to make the legs stick two of the raisins on two toothpicks and to the ends of each pick place an almond for feet. The arms are made in the same way, except for the hands the almonds are blanched. Now run two marshmallows through a toothpick for the man's body and head—he hasn't any neck. Have ready some melted chocolate, dip an orange stick in the mixture and with it make large blotches for buttons on his coat, and use the same brown mixture for his features, which you see are as grotesque as possible. Now attach arms and legs to the body, and when a fig has been rakishly placed on his head for a hat the little manikin is ready for the party. The Larder and the Cookery. Butter is best kept in stone jars with stone lids. Bread will keep better in a wooden box than in tin. Some people think the flavor of pumpkin pie much improved by a little quince preserve. Bolled rice covered with grated cheese and baked brown in the oven makes a good luncheon dish. To pop corn successfully first put it in a sieve and dash cold water over it. The kernels will be large and flaky. HOG SUGGESTIONS. A pig gives the best returns from dairy products while young. With the growing pigs thrift, not hunger, should prompt to exercise. If from a well nourished dam and a healthy strain of animals the pigs rarely need attention at farrowing time. When pigs should be weaned should be determined as much on how they are eating and growing as upon their age. As a general proposition it may be said that the sow that ins pigs before she is a year old will disappoint her owner. A cough in a hog can usually be traced to one of three things—dust, worms or cold, but there is no telling what it may result in. no timing what it may result in. Skimmilk when fed in connection with grain makes a very valuable food for hogs at all periods of their growth, but particularly so during the earlier period. GROWING BABY BEEF. Selection and Feeding Two Important Things to Consider. With the increasing demand for baby beef the production of it has become a very profitable industry, says the Kansas Industrialist. So much advice has been given on the advantages of growing this kind of beef that the beginner is likely to arrive at the conclusion that this is the only profitable branch of beef production. This is not necessarily true, though it is true, generally speaking, that under the right conditions the more quickly your live stock is finished and put on the market the greater will be the profit. To obtain the best results in rearing baby beef a number of things should be borne in mind: The two most important of these are the selection of well bred youngsters and the feeding. Well bred feeding cattle can be finished for market at a younger age than the ordinary kind. The younger the better for baby beef. And as a rule only well bred ones will mature sufficiently early to satisfactorily meet market requirements. It requires greater skill in selecting a calf for fattening than older cattle, for the more milk fat it possesses the less it shows its lack of quality in breeding. It is comparatively easy to detect what kind of a feeder a two-year-old steer will make. With a calf it is more difficult. Proper feeding might require even a keener consideration. At the begin- ```markdown ``` Brae Rising Star, the pure bred Ayrshire bull shown, is a fine specimen of the breed he represents. He was bred in Kilmarnock, Scotland, by Sir Hugh Shaw-Stewart. Note the massive breast and fore quarters. He has a large frame and is a powerful animal throughbred. Ayrshire bulls are good milk and butcher animals are thrifty animals and extremely hardy. Ayrshire are growing in popularity, especially in the east. ning the calf should be encouraged to consume considerable quantities of roughage. This has a tendency to increase the capacity of the calf for handling large quantities of concentrated feeds later on. Plenty of roughage, especially silage and clover or a substitute, should be provided during the winter and plenty of pasture during the summer. The calves should be fed corn with some nitrogenous food like oil meal or cottonseed meal during the winter. Shellled or crushed corn may be fed very profitably, provided there are hogs to follow. When the calf is young oats and clover or alfalfa are likely to prove the best supplements to corn for full feeding. Grain feeding may be dispensed with when the calf is put on pasture if the grass is good. It would be better, however, to continue the grain ration even if the grass is good! The tendency with the calves is to grow rather than to fatten. The aim should be then, to have them fatten as they grow. The only way to accomplish this is by liberal feeding of the right kind of a ration. Ventilation of Sheep Barns Ventilation or Sheep Barns. Ventilation is an important factor in the health of all animals confined in stables. Undoubtedly the ideal ventilation for the sheep stable as well as the cow barn would be the King system. But most sheep barns will not be equipped with any elaborate system of ventilation; hence the desirability of securing as good ventilation as is possible without deleterious effects on the sheep under average conditions and in an ordinary sheep stable. Having a warm covering of wool, the sheep are not easily affected by cold temperatures; hence up to lambing time about the best method of ventilating the stable is by means or an open door into the yard with a southern or eastern exposure. This affords plenty of fresh air without an accompanying draft in cool weather, and if a portable gate is at hand to confine the sheep within the stable in stormy weather the results will be most satisfactory.

Then drain the slices of bacon carefully, put them in a frying pan and fry until crisp over a quick fire. The bacon should be of a delicate brown when cooked. Have ready some oblong slices, of toasted, brown brend, butter them well, and trim the slides to the size of the bacon. Cover the pieces of toast with the bacon and dish up; put a small, round slice of fried tomato (these can be fried in the bacon fat) on the top of each slice of bacon, and send to table hot: SMART COAT COLLARS.

Using mercerized cotton of a medium weight, embroider the petals with satin stitch at right angles with the padding. Blue and red embroidery brightens the simple sailor collar of tan linen pictured, which is designed for the schoolgirl, but is equally good looking for her elder sister. The gay tie matches the embroidery, and it is knotted in the newest fashion. For the Tea Table. A woman who has lived abroad for many years where they make a cup of tea as carefully as they make a cake says the lemon should never be cut until it is to be used. Have a small, sharp knife on the table and cut each slice as desired, never cutting a disful of lemons to stand for an hour or even a few minutes. $ ^{3} $ A good tidbit for the tea table can be made with biscuit and marmalade. Break each piece in two, making thus two squares; put on a row of Neufchatel cheese around the edge and a drop of orange or tangerine marmalade in the center. This makes just the right sized wafer and has a luscious flavor. All the latest improvements and conveniences is under the management of Thos. G. Young. Excellent car service.

Instead of lemon in the tea try a maraschino cherry and a teaspoonful of the wine that comes with them. Or another flavor that may be used in tea is rum. This is called Russian tea.

Remove the crust from fresh bread and tear the center in small pieces with two forks. Dry in a very slow oven until crisp all through. The center of biscuits may be prepared in the same way. Or take a freshly baked loaf and while it is still warm pull the inside out of it in pieces a little smaller than the palm of your hand. Bake the pieces on a floured baking tin in a hot oven until they are of a delicate brown color, when they should be crisp and of a nice nutty flavor. These are most digestible.
