TERIAN CHURCH. | Large Crowd Expected Out— League Has Accomplished Much .Good in cltjinterest- ing Reports Expected. The local branch of the Nation- al League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes will hold its third quarterly meeting Monday night at Butler Presbeterian Church, East Broad and McDon- ald streets. A large crowd is expected to be present at the meeting and the work for the next quarter thor- oughly gone over. The league’s latest triumph was an old folks picnic which was given during the month of June. The affair was one of the most commendable ever accorded the poor‘of the city and by it many a neglected poor person was treat- ed to an outing which they would not have received but for the ‘kind offices of the league. The outing is still the topic of dis- cussion among the poor who were able to take it in and mem- ories of the affair will long linger in their minds. Aside from this the league has done much for the poor children of the slums and at the meting Monday night several new mem- berships will he brought in. The meeting which will con- vene promptly at 8:30 o'clock will be presided over by the pres- ident. .

L. Barnes Presided Over All Meetings. The twenty-first session of the Grand Court of. Calanthe, Juris- diction of Georgia, convened in Valdosta on Tuesday of last week and adjourned the following Thursday. The past sessions of the Grana Court were the best in the history of the body. and were attended by about six hundred defegates from every part of the state. The public sessions of the court were held in conjunction with those of the Knights of Pythias at St. Paul A, M. E. Church and were attended by large gather- ings. The reports of the various of- ficers of the Grand Court showed the order to be in excellent con- dition both financially and nu- merically. It was shown that the amount collected for the year was $28,759.15, with Expenditures amounting to $24,025.77. The total amount on hand after all indébtedness was paid was $34,821.38. The numerical strength of the body was report- ed as 11,458 from 316 courts an increase of 1,100 members over the previous year. The numerical and financial standing of the order in this state is far m_ excess'of that of any other jurisdiction, Texas the next largest jurisdiction being s-1r- passed by severai theusand riem- hers. The reports onthe juvenile courts also were very gratifying and showed -this department of the order to have 3,100 members, an increase of 300 over last year. The tutal membership of the jurisdiction is 14,558, there being 16 courts and go juvenile courts. a vaniah with eighteen ccurts totaling approximately 500 mem- bers leads the cities of the state in membership, White Rose being the largest of the local courts. The old roster of Grand Court officers, with but fewexceptions, was reelected, the only changes being “Mrs. Mattie Heard, of Athens, displacing Mrs. Mattie Savage, of MHawkinsville, as junyor directress; Mrs. Anna Randall of Thomasville displacing Mrs. J.

CONTEST Another Bout Wednesday Night At Lincoln Park ine three hundred or more spectators who witnessed the boxing contestaat Lincoln Park ‘Wednesday night more than got their money’s worth, all four of the bouts furnishing many an exciting moment, The two pre- uminaries aud the semi windup were the real features of the evening §the main bout furnish- ing buthttle excitement. _ The first preliminary between young Georges Dixon and Kid Black was areal hair raising fisticuf, the boys mixing it on every oc- casion and furnisning the spec- tators a contest which alone would lijve been worth the price of admigsion. Young Dixon was the more skillful of two, putting over more telling blows and was given the discision. Thesecond preliminary between two lacal boye was also a spirit fight. The semi windup between Walter Johnson and Battling White was tho real class of the evening. Johnson though being outweigh- ed about thirty pounds held his heavy and more rangy opponent to 4 draw and drew _ first blood with a stiff upper swing to the jaw. In the first three rounds of the bout the larger man seemed to have a shade the better of the fight but from that until the énd of the sixth he seemed to be tiring and Johnson got in the more telling licks, There was evidently bad blood between the men and a knock out was tried by each, but with- outavail. Ofthe two men the smaller was easily the more sci- entific and his blows were better placed, The bout was declated adraw. A return fight between the two would furnish an excel- ent main bout, but the distance should at least be ten rounds. ‘The main bout between Kid Wil. liams and Alabama Blossom was tame in every respect, the latter covering up repeteadly after the firet two rounds, making buta feeble attempt in getting in a lick. Williams was -easily -the master of his opponent but sat- isfied himself withagetting in little jabs to the face, seemingly at will, The decision was given to Williams at the end of the sixth round, both man emerging from the fight showihe but little evidence of havingibeen in a scrap. Ike Griffin, 2 local favor- ite, was at the ringside and of- fered a challenge to any man_at 165 pounds, Another boxing contest will be held at the park next Wednesday night and Man- ager Joe Jennings promises as good a program as that of this week. The price of admission will be 26 and 50 cents. Teachers Meet Next Week 5 — The State teachers will havea two days session Wednesday of next week at the State Cullege.

Sunday School Union to Have Finest Negro Publish- ing House in World—Did Nearly $50,000 Business .Last On this page we present to our readers the cut of Prof. Ira T. Bryant, and the new publishing house he is building. The build- ing is nearing completion and is to cost $50,000. It will have no equal as a modern uptodate pub- lishing house owned by Negroes anywhere in the world. When the A. ME. Church placed its Sunday School Union in the hands of Prof. -Bryant it marked the turning point in its publishing house business, and time has fully and amply justified the wisdom displayed in this particular. } Prof. Bryant is a progressive layman, a thorough business man who believes in his church and who had a vision, revealing to him the possibilities of building up a mammoth printing and pub- lishing establishment that would reflect credit, upon his church and the race, Year by year the out put of the Sunday School Union has ‘increased. Its volume of busi- ness reached nearly $50.000 dur- ing the last year and all because of the facilities to publish: any- thing that anybody wants. There is in this establishment $30,000 worth of improved machinery and material, all*installed since the present secretary took charge The .wonderful strides made by this young layman of the church demonstrates clearly what may be done by any ag- | gressive and progressive young | business man. Prof. Bryant’s great achieve- ments will do more than any- thing else towards convincing the great A. M. E. Church of the feasibility of having one great publishing house in which all of the business of the church, un~ divided, may be more casily done, thereby saving many thous~ and dollars to the ¢hurch and placing it indisputably on the forefront of all racial entesprises. Wedding of Colored Parties A marriage of colored parties which is of some interest took place last night at the colored Baptist Church, Corine Gray, niece of Rev. Henry Miller of this city, and Martin Baxter of Savannah being the contracting parties. Corine Gray is well known in Riedsville, having been raised here and is respected by all. Baxter was employed in 2 local barber shop for several months and gained a reputation for honesty and integrity. They will make their home in Savannah.—Tattnall Journal. Mr and Mrs. Baxter are re- siding at 504 Park Ave. West. After a number of experiments with the use of a vaccine which it was hoped would be effective in rendering horses immune from attacks of glanders, the federal department of agriculture has announced that the vaccine is a failure and advises horse owners against using it. It is a humane thing to let the hen with the brood of chicks out of an evening or in the middle of the day to dust and stretch her legs and wings. If one can imagine himself in a coop for a week at a stretch in hot weather the service mentioned will be the more cheerfully rendered. The Massachusetts forestry department is making an effort along the line of trying to reclaim the commonwealth lands of the tip of Cape Cod by planting trees there and sowing beach grass. If these two things can be successfully done it is believed that the shifting of the sands by prevailing winds can be prevented. There recently passed the upper house of congress an agricultural appropriation bill carrying the huge sum of nearly $20,000,000. This will mean a more effective as well as more extensive prosecution of agricultural experiment and demonstration work in all parts of the country than has ever been carried on before. The press bulletin of the United States geological survey calls attention to the discovery of an important deposit of asbestos some thirty miles north of Globe, Arlz. It is found with limestone and has a remarkably fine fiber, a yarn spun from it .03 of an inch in diameter, being strong enough to support a weight of fifteen and a half pounds. It is estimated that to properly harvest the bumper wheat crop which will be ripening in Kansas 40,000 hands will be required besides the number usually required. Many counties that did not ask for help last season are asking for as high as 3,000 hands this year. The figures given are furnished by the state's free employment bureau. A good many housewives may not be aware of the fact that beans and peas will boil tender in a much shorter time in soft water than in hard; that onions and a number of other vegetables boiled in soft water tend to lose their flavor rapidly, and that for extracting the juice of meat for broth soft water is best, and hard water or soft water containing; salt is preferable if the juices of the meat are to be retained. A Canadian reader, reporting his experiences in the Itral New Yorker, tells of having much success in the catching of sparrows with the aid of one of the small pocket flash lights. The sparrows were poked from their roosting places by fish poles and at once flew toward the light, being seized as they reached it or falling to the floor, where they were easily caught. He reports that all the sparrows in a barn can be got by this method in fifteen or twenty minutes. The short crop of apples in a good many sections this season is due to the fact that the trees had an overload of fruit last season and the further fact that it was very dry during the three or four weeks preceding the ripening season. Fruit buds for the following season's crop are formed during the period mentioned, and the trees being put to it to furnish nourishment for the fruit already set formed no buds. This is one of nature's wise precautions for the protection of the life and vitality of the tree. A well known melon grower claims that he sometimes gives his melons a special flavor in the following interesting manner: When the melons have attained full size and just before they are ready to pick he takes a strand of yarn, puts one end in a bottle of sugar slurp, containing the flavoring extract desired and by means of a darning needle runs the other end through the stem of the melon to be treated. He states that in dry weather a melon will absorb half a cupful or more of the sweetened extract, which imparts a delicious flavor. The lad whose high school training has not served to make him consider it unbecoming for him to buckle in and load and spread a good sized manure pile has a proper notion of the value of education. On the other hand, the boy who thinks his diploma sort o' puts him above work of this kind, or the girl who gets it into her head that such evidence of scholarship puts her above dishwashing and mopping serves as a mighty poor sample of the output of an educational system, is doomed to lots of grief in the days ahead and is more than likely to prove of mighty little comfort or help to those who have sacrificed most in his or her behalf. Those who are not interested in poultry raising have little idea of the extent to which the business in the shipment of day old chicks is now carried on. One Ohio firm claims to have a capacity of 85,000 day old chicks a week. The writer saw a shipment from this firm the other day consisting of more than 500 Brown and White Leghorns and White Wyandottes. They were a lively lot at the end of their 600 mile trip, and but one chick dled en route. The little fellows are shipped in corrugated pasteboard boxes, each containing fifty chicks, and provided with holes to give necessary ventilation. The chicks are not fed or watered en route, as they require no nourishment for a period of seventy two hours after being hatched. INSURANCE GEOGRAPHY When is a man mos confused?

Malibie D. Babcock. Wanted a Sample. A young minister unexpectedly called upon to address a Sunday school asked, to gain time: "Children, what shall I speak about?" A little girl on the front seat who was in the habit of reciting at entertainments had committed to memory several declamations, so that she was always prepared for any occasion. Sympathy and interest shone in her face as she held up her hand and in a shrill voice inquired: "What do you know best?"—Chicago News. Essad Pasha's Revenge. A number of years ago Genl Bey, Essa Pasha's brother and, like himself, an Albanian nationalist, was shot by order of Abdul Hamid. For this reason, when the Turkish parliament deposed the sultan, Essa Pasha begged to be sent to Yildiz klosk to tell Abdul of his fate. Accompanied by three others, he presented himself before his brother's murderer and pronounced the formula: "In accordance with Fetuv, the representatives of the nation have decreed your deposition. Follow us." Essa subsequently declared that April 27, 1909, when he thus tasted the sweets of revenge, was the happiest day he had ever known—London Spectator. Point to Be Remembered. "Yes, mum, I be the oldest 'un in yon village, but, mind ye, I ain't always been."—London Opinion. Orthography of Shakespeare. Some interesting Shakespeareaana appear in the London Record. It is well known that in Shakespeare's time orthography was little accounted of and that Shakespearea himself would have considered the question of spelling his name in one way and not another a mere waste of time. It is, however, worth recording how the name struck the Bodleian officials when the first folio was given a place and mark in the library. The entries are as follows and were all written in 1623: Shak-sper, Shape-speare, Shakespeare, Shakespeare, Shak-speare. The testimony, so far as it goes, is obviously in favor of the form "Shakespeare" and of the present pronunciation of the word. Nutmeg should be used sparingly, as it contains an etherial oil that is a recognized poison. FARM ORCHARD AND GARDEN BY F.E.TRIGG REGISTER, ROCKFORD, IA. CORRESPONDENCE SOLICITED [This matter must not be reprinted without special permission.] [This matter must not be reprinted without special permission.] Air slacked lime is recommended by some as effective in controlling melon bugs. A Michigan White Wyandotte hen is credited with having laid ninety-three eggs in as many days. Her name is Pinfeather, and her owner holds her worth $100. One Iowa farmer succeeded in getting the upper hand of a patch of horse nettle last July and August by applying twenty gallons of kerosene oil to the patch, 3 by 4 rods in extent. Corn smut cannot be controlled, as can oat smut, by treating the seed with a formalin solution. The only preventive consists in not planting seed on fields which produced smutty corn the preceding year. A bit odd, isn't it, that one of the largest American trees known—the cottonwood—has a seed so small that it is borne for long distances in the air supported by a little fluff of cotton to which it is attached? A strip of several thicknesses of most any kind of paper wrapped around the stem of the garden plants and extending an inch and a half into the soil and as far above the ground will give effective protection from cutworms. For the sake of the boy and only incidentally because of consideration for the automobile gas bill the boy who sails around in such a machine for pleasure merely ought to be required to earn the money to pay for the gasoline that he burns up. A new process has been discovered for the drying of lumber by electricity. The trees are first sawed into thick planks and subjected to an electric current for ten hours. Under this method the wood is said to be harder and to warp less than by the usual method. Corn belt hog rails should take note of the warning which has lately been issued by the United States department of agriculture to the effect that no faith should be placed by hog rails in any treatment for hog cholera except by the serum vaccination method. A word of appreciation doesn't cost a red cent, but in a good many cases it secures a type and quality of service that mere wages will not. Justly spoken, such appreciation tends to create good feeling and makes possible a type of co-operation that produces most satisfactory results. A California farm hand who apparently thinks while his hands are busy milking has devised the plan of strapping a one legged milk stool to that part of his anatomy where he sits down. When he finishes one cow and goes to the next the stool goes along with him and is there when he sits down. Rarely should asparagus be cut beyond the middle of June, and many do not cut it after the 1st. The condition of the bed next year will depend largely upon the care which it receives from this on. Such care should include keeping the bed free from weeds, keeping the soil idose and generous fertilizing if the bed has not been fertilized earlier in the season. The fact—vouched for by geologists—that the surface of the country is wearing away at the rate of an inch in 750 years isn't half as important a consideration for the average farmer as that involved in taking from the soil more in fertilizing elements in raw crops than he restores to it in the shape of natural and commercial fertilizers, and the growing of leguminous crops. A Minnesota woman, writing Dr. Bracken of the state board of health, recommends the following recipe for the successful use of face powder: For giving the face the best color get a pot of rouge and a rabbit's foot. Bury them about two miles from home and walk out and back once a day to see that the stuff is still there. On the face of it this would seem to be an entirely successful way to keep the complexion fresh and of the right color. The poisoned mash bait which is used to kill cutworms is made as follows: Thoroughly mix a teaspoonful of parsley green in a quart of dry bran and then moisten the mixture with a pint of sweetened water, molasses or sugar being good for the purpose. The bait thus prepared should be scattered in little chunks as large as a good sized hickory nut along the rows of the plants. Poultry should not be allowed to run in a garden where this poison has been placed. THE HOME CANNER. THE DEADLY CUTWORM. It Has Been Destroying Wheat In Western Kansas—Preventive Measures. The mysterious worm which has been reported to be destroying wheat in western Kansas is none other than the common clayback cutworm, according to George A. Dean, professor of entomology in the Kansas State Agricultural college. When the first report of damage was received an entomologist was sent into the infested region. Infestation was found to be confined practically to wheat fields containing much volunteer wheat and to grass lands and alfalfa fields. Unless weather conditions are unfavorable for growing crops, the worms will probably, says the entomologists, cause no great loss of the wheat crop. Preventive measures are best for controlling cutworms. If the wheat fields are plowed during the summer and the volunteer wheat is kept down until after seeding there is very little danger. Cutworms often migrate from field to field, in which case a good dust barrier should be constructed in which the worms may be destroyed. Where the worms are migrating or are concentrated in a small area, they can probably be killed by using the polson bran mash employed against grasshoppers. This should be sown in the evening along the edge of the field that the worms are entering. Growing Alfalfa. In preparing the land for alfalfa it is best to go slow. The first step is to plow the soil deep and prepare it the first year for potatoes or corn, using ten loads of manure per acre, pulverizing or harrowing the land down in good shape. The corn or potato crop should then be kept thoroughly clean for a season. This will destroy weeds and the ground will have time to settle properly for alfalfa. Then the following spring the land should be double disked, rolled and harrowed. The seed can then be sown with an ordinary wheat drill as follows: Mix, and mix thoroughly, about six pounds of cornmeal to ten pounds of alfalfa seed. The ordinary drill when closed to its finest calibration will sow about sixteen pounds per acre. Thus sixteen pounds of the mixture will mean ten pounds of alfalfa seed. This is considered about the best amount to sow per acre under field conditions. Another method of sowing is to cover or plug up all but the first, seventh, etc., holes in the drill with the indicator set at the same position as before. This will take about one pound of seed per acre and will put the rows forty-two inches apart, far enough to be cultivated. Straw as a Fertilizer. A large amount of straw is shipped from a county in Missouri to a nearby paper and strawboard factory. This straw brings the farmer about 50 cents per ton. A county agent recently found a pile of about 1,000 tons at Skeston ready for shipment. He computes that as a fertilizer this straw is worth $2.50 per ton, in addition to its value as a means of adding organic matter to the soil. He is making a campaign of the county in an attempt to show the inadvisability of the farmers selling their straw and urging its more extensive, use as bedding in stables and feed lots. Straw used as a top dressing on fall wheat has been found to practically insure a good stand of clover on lands where clover is otherwise grown with great difficulty. $^9$ Cure or Kill Trees. It is very unjust to neighbors to permit trees to grow that are covered with insects or troubled with disease. The disease or insects will spread and finally destroy other trees on the property where they are growing, and the trouble rapidly spreads to neighboring grounds. Either cure or kill. If unable to do the first cut down the trees and burn them, and do it promptly. A Good Whitewash A pound of cheap bar soap dissolved in a gallon of boiling water and added to about five gallons of thick whitewash will give it a gloss like oil paint. filicate of soda in the proportion of one to ten of whitewash produces a fireproof cement. Orchard No Place For Hay. The wise farmer does not try to raise a crop of fruit and a crop of hay from the same land. By so doing he falls to get the best possible results from elther. Better put all the attention to the orchard and put the hay on some other land. Farm and Garden INOCULATION FOR ALFALFA. Nitrogen Gathering Bacteria on Roots of Plant Advised. "Alfalfa is a legume crop, and for its successful growth nitrogen gathering bacteria on its roots are necessary," according to Manley Champlin, assistant agronomist at the State college, South Dakota. "Where alfalfa has been grown for many years the bacteria are likely present in the soil-for instance, certain parts of the Black Hills region. But if the bacteria are not in the soil it would probably be well to inoculate either the seed or the land to produce them." Mr. Champlin offers the following suggestions on methods of inoculation: "Nitrogen gathering bacteria are prepared in the form known as pure culture by the United States department of agriculture at Washington, and small quantities of this pure culture are sent free to the farmers desiring to make a trial of inoculation. In sending in a request for this material the following facts should be stated: The name of the crop to be inoculated, amount of seed to be sown, acreage to be sown to this crop and the approximate date on which you expect to sow the seed. "The inoculating material is sent out within seven days of the time the application is received, and it should be used before the expiration of twenty-five days from the date on which it was sent, as the bacteria may be destroyed if held longer than that. Requests should be sent to the secretary of agriculture, Washington, D. C. The state of South Dakota has provided no funds for the making of pure culture at the State College of Agriculture, though A A FIELD OF YOUNG ALFALFA. requests received at the college are usually forwarded to the secretary of agriculture at Washington for attention. "Karl F. Kellerman of the bureau of plant industry says: 'The inoculation of legume seeds with liquid pure culture is exceedingly simple. The seeds to be treated are placed in a clean bucket, pall or tub and the liquid pure culture applied a little at a time, thoroughly stirring the seeds with the hands, as though one were kneading dough. This will produce a thin, moist coating of culture on every seed. Too much liquid makes the seeds too wet, and if left standing thus for any extended period they may be injured. The small quantity of liquor, pure culture, furnished by the department is sufficient to produce the required amount of moisture on a considerable bulk of seeds, depending entirely upon the size of the seeds and how thoroughly they are stirred with the culture. After moistening the seeds should be spread in a thin layer on a clean floor or on newspapers and thoroughly dried. The complete application requires but a short time and should not be done in bright light or direct sunlight. If inoculated in the evening and spread in a protected place the seeds will be ready for early morning sowing, although seeds thus treated can be stored for a week or more should weather or other conditions prevent immediate sowing.' "In all cases where inoculation is practiced a strip should be left along the edge of the field without inoculation so as to determine whether or not the inoculation was necessary. "After the alfalfa or other legume crop is two or three months old an abundance of nodules or small bunches should appear on the roots. These nodules are the homes of the bacteria, and the number of nodules indicates the number of bacteria present. If an alfalfa or other legume crop grows without the bacteria it takes its nitrogen from the soil the same as a grain crop and therefore is not as beneficial to the soil as it is when it gets its nitrogen from the air. Furthermore, the legume will not make the best growth unless it is supplied with bacteria or, on the other hand, is sown upon land which is well manured and rich in nitrogen. After one field is inoculated adjoining fields may be quickly treated in future years by simply scattering soil from the inoculated field upon the new field." Fruit on Every Farm. No farm should be without fruit. A farmer who has a taste for fruit growing and land suitable for it should have his orchards of such fruits as his local market calls for and of such varieties as succeed best in his locality.

Our small earth is not absolutely safe from collision with bodies in space, but is safe from collision with any planet in the solar system and with the sun. To be hit by a planet either the earth or the planet must leave its orbit. This is impossible, and it is also impossible that the earth can leave its orbit and fall to the sun. The earth is being hit by millions of meteors daily, from the size of pin heads up to the largest, several hundred tons in weight.—New York American. Baron von Kempelen, at the beginning of last century, traveled through Europe with what he described as an unbeatable chess automaton in the likeness of a Turk. Kempelen used to conceal a man in the chest on which the Turk was seated, but so ingenious was the contrivance that for a long time everybody was deceived. Napoleon played chess with the pseudo-automaton when stopping at Schoenbrunn after the battle of Wagram. He lost the first game and in the second delliberately made two false moves. The pieces were replaced each time, but on the emperor making a third false move the Turk swept all the pieces off the board. London Chronicle.

Slaton is receiving in Chatham county. A glance ut the roster of names of the members of the Chat- ham County Slaton Club is con- vincing that the leading and thoughtful citizens of the county are bahind the candidacy of our eminent Governor. As indicated in the speeches of both Gen. Mel- drim and Hon. A. A. Lavrence, Governor Slaton is eusily the biggest manin the senatorial race toduy. Coming as he does from one of the first families of the state, the Governor has always been a politician of the very high- est type. Safe and sound onevery live political issue of the day and void of every disposition to villify our people in order to attract at- tention to hir candidacy, Gov. Sla- ton has been able to enlist to his support in every section of our state, Georgia’s most progressive and conservative citizens. ‘This support-of Governor Sluton’s can- didacy for the Senate on the part of Georgia’s leading citizens is in- deed a pleasing sign that dema- gogy and race antipathy are not the assets which the good peuple of the State of Georgia require of its representatives at the National Capital. Here’s hoping that when the primary is pulled off, that Gov. Slaton will so completely sweep the field that the political dirgo of his opponents will be iu the air. If there be any one tendency or trait of our people that comes in for our sererest condemaation and of which we ought tq rid ourselves immediately, it is the one which impels us to seek the courts for redress whenever there is a dispute of the flimsiest sort against us. This tendency on our part has resulted not only in our financial evslavement to the vari- ous courts, especially the magis- trate and municipal court, but ina vindictavenoss of character and dis- position that savors of no good for us. Letany one of our number make the least remark or state- ment concerning another, and whether or not the remark is det- rimental in character, immediate resort is made to the courts for settlement. That the above state- ment is true, a visit any day to our police or magistrates’ courts will substantiate. At these courts there are instances galore to prove that we are too prone to make the courts which should be the place of last resort, the very first azen- cy in tho settlement of any differ- ence whether real or fancied that may arise between us. Thisisnot as it should be and should there- fore come.in for the strongest con- demnation on the part of the edu- cational agencies, the pulpit, the bress and the school which are at work among us- Through these agencies, our people must be taught, and that right early, to understand that itis not always the part of manly courage or valor to haul one another before the courts on account of minor differ- ences that may arise between thein. To be able tosettle- our differences amoog ourselves is far better and less expensive at all times than to do otherwise. Asa matter of fact there is too much of gossiping of the “hesays, Isay” variety among us, which should be broken up. Yet we believe that this can be donealtogether satisfactorily with- out the courts. If our educational agencies will only bestir them- selves a little more, there is’ no doubt that there will be improve- ment rmong us along the lines in- dicated. Our people none the less than our white fellow citizens rejoice at this time to know shat the much talked of auditorium building for Savannah is an immeditte surety. That the gity has suffered in growth both numerically and fi- nancially on eccot nf of the absence ot xsarteble eathenre plree rer convenuious und tbe like, uo one can duubt. As wehare looked on very passively, we have seen cities with farless natural resources and attractiveness than our own city, rise in wealth, population and in- fluence while we have remained practically at é#&tandstill. Thanks to the progressive spirit now ram- pant among us, our city is now beginning to assert her rightful place among the leading cities of the Atlantic seaboard. With a large and commodious auditorium building in our midst, coupled with the natural resources, beauty and convenience of location of Sa- yvannah, we believe that no city in ‘the South will have the call ou our city whenever there is casting about for suitable places for the liolding of conventions. As others we hope to see the auditorium building under headway 1n the im- mediate future. In the meantime may the booster spiritso’permexte each aod ull of us, both white and black, that Savannah and all for which the name stands, be known and heralded in every scction of our land. = | -‘The rapid strides which the A.

The beneficent influence of Ma- sonry has been made _ manifest during the past decade in the growing sentiment for arbitration as a method of settlement of dis- putes of all kinds. As the spirit of humanity and_ brotherhood spreads among mankind, the har- ‘barous resort to brute force is superceded by she appeal to reason and justice, and instead of de- structive strikes and wasteful lawsuits, disputarts sutmit their claims to the decision of impartial judges. Even nations are begin- ning‘to realize that national honor may be satistied without the croel sacrifice of life and treasure.— Masonic Standard, : THE GOLDEN AGE The Ancient Free and Accepted Mason is, perhaps, the greatest secret organization which the world kas ever known. In-all probability, it is the oldést. And, in comparison with all other splendid orders, it is, in our opin- jon, as well as the opinion of other Brother Masons, by far the best. Masonry, taking the Holy Bible for its standard, accepts the Fa- therhood of God; and, vouching for the most noble and gure in humanity, proclaims the Brother- hood of ‘man. For many years after the build- ing of King Solomon’s great tem- ple the Masons were much abused and vilified. And they have, ever and anon been exposed to the abuse of the public and the | press.--Ex. We need more fellowship in our | Masonic lodges. We need more of that spirit which prompts a man upon entering a lodge room to seek out each brother. grasp his hand in fraternal greeting and inquire after his welfare. The selfishness of the age has become ‘proverbial, but a Masonic lodge ought to be an exception.- The ‘true Mason is his Wrather’s keep. ere NOL In Ure sense ef sent ity with Lis persuuul aftsiis, but m2 ‘chain of indissoluble affection.— ‘Masonic Standard. 7 | MASONRY OUTSIDE TILE LODGE ~There are Masons annd Masons. | There is the Muson who is per- fect in his work of the order, 4l- ways present nt the meetings of all the bodies, decorated with charms and pins and rings the ad- miration of himself and the envy of the younger brethren. But examine himeclosely. What is he outside the lodge room? If he is selfish in his aims, hard with his tenants or employes, neglect- ful of his family, unscrupulous in his business methods, smutty or profane iti conversation, deuf to appeals of the needy; if heis any or all of these, that man is no true Mason. He is rather npbinderance to the order. The strongest argument against Masonry is the Mason himself. ‘The world knows, as well as we Go, what our order. inculeates, and it also knows far better than we realize, whether we are practicing what we profess, acd when it sees the divergeice between pra.tice aud precept, it despises you and the order. - The unfaithful Mason is injur- ing the whole fraternity.

If it tendsto make them good mer and true, then it will’ judge well of the institution; if it does not do this the opinion that will be formed must be evil. The only real use Masonry is in the world is im its effects on men outside of tha lodge room. Its teachings and ritual, beautiful as they are, are only means, not ends.

Broad Savannah, Ga. --- AFTERNOON GOWNS. Grapes Are Used With Net For Garden Party and Casino. GRAPE AND NET GOWN. It is long since we have had anything more charming than the crape gowns that are being worn for summer afternoon functions. The dainty frock pictured here was donned recently by a fascinating debutante to wear at the garden party given by a Newport society leader. White net was combined with the pink and white figured crape. Net formed the much frilled skirt, the vest and finished sleeves and neck. The wide girdle was of white satin ribbon. Worn with it was a wide rimmed hat trimmed with flowers in small nodding sprays. The silk parasol was in a shade to harmonize with the figure in the gown. White suede shoes and long white silk gloves completed this much admired toilet. CLOSET SPACE. Clever Way of Acquiring It in a Small Apartment. A clever woman added more closet space to the scanty supply her apartment afforded in this way: The hall was of wood paneling up to a height of four feet. She converted every other panel for some distance along one side into an invisible door, so that the space in back of each could be used for storing various belongings. In one of these shallow closets a rack was built to hold umbrellas. In another were inserted shelves just wide enough to hold the men's hats when not in use. Another closet space was used for whisk broom, dusters and hat brush and still another for overshoes, etc. This arrangement has proved an inestimable convenience. A careful carpenter was able to do the work without in the least disfiguring the wall. Homemade Vacuum Bottle When going plucking make a vacuum bottle out of a big jar if you do not happen to own a regular vacuum bottle. A two quart jar is best. Pack it with ice, keeping the pieces large, with the smaller bits to fill up the crevices, and then wrap the jar (after fastening the top on) with many layers of old newspapers. The ice will keep all day this way. Cleaning Mirrors Do not use water on mirrors. Dip a cloth in alcohol and wipe the glass; then use tissue paper to finish. Old newspapers are fine for window glasses. They should be torn and rubbed soft, the panes washed with clear water, wiped dry and polished with the crumpled paper. A faded straw hat may be cleaned with a paste made of powdered sulphur and lemon juice. Dry it thoroughly in the sunshine, then brush out the powder. Every housekeeper should keep a roll of parchment paper on hand. It can be used for at least a dozen purposes, from cleaning fish to hulling strawberries. A dainty little article for the hand bag is a little book of powder papers covered with a pretty bit of ribbon, folded back to form a pocket so that the leaves can be slipped into it. To get rid of the smell of tobacco smoke put a lump of crystal ammonia into a jar and add a few drops of oil of lavender. Pour a little boiling-water over it and let the jar stand in the room. Milady's Mirror Seaside Care of the Hair Most people, even those who are accustomed to give the hair careful attention, are careless of their locks while staying at the seashore. As a matter of fact, more destruction may be wrought there in a month than can be remedied in six. Before entering the surf it is a good plan for bathers to place a wet sponge at the back of the neck and let the water fall down the spine. This is to equalize the temperature. If one plunges head first into the water there will be a sensation of dizziness and fullness in the head. This shock affects the scalp and incidentally the hair. The very best treatment for hair at the seashore is first to use the wet sponge as directed and after coming from the water to take the juice of a lemon and pour over it a cupful of boiling water. When this is sufficiently cool saturate the hair with it and dry with warm 'towel. In ten minutes rinse off with warm water. Shampoo the hair frequently, using the yolk of an egg well beaten with a cupful of hot water and twenty drops of the spirits of rosemary. Rub this into the scalp, and after ten minutes rinse with warm water and dry. When inconvenient to shampoo brush the hair well and use the following scalp wash: Extract of witch hazel, one pint; eau de cologne, eight ounces; chloroform, three drams. This treatment will cleanse and make the hair soft, glossy and fluffy. After the Sea Bath. Many women who bathe in the ocean have no idea of the damage done to the hair by allowing it to dry by sitting in the sun upon the beach. The salt, wet hair and the sun's rays combined have a decidedly injurious effect upon the coloring matter of the hair. It fades blond hair into streaks of dirty yellow and dark brown or black hair into burnt reddish color. Also, it renders the hair bushy, harsh and brittle. Then the fine, sharp sand cuts and irritates the scalp to such a degree as to give the impression of a scalp disease having been contracted. In fact, this sometimes actually happens owing to the itching and consequent scratching of the scalp. There are also germs and microbes in salt water which can, of course, take up their abode in the hair. The Soap For Summer. Be careful in regard to the kind of soap you use in summer, and only use soap in washing the face at the night toilet. Pure castile soap is the very best kind to use. It does not dry the skin and leaves it smooth and soft. Both morning and night rinse the face in cold water after washing. This is a splendid complexion tonic. Try softening the water in which you wash with a little oatmeal: The oatmeal should be sewed up in a thin muslin bag and allowed to soak in the water. You've no idea how wonderfully refreshing to the skin it really is. Bran Bag For the Skin. Some women find soap irritating to the skin. The best thing to do in such a case is to use a bran bag instead: When the face is in need of a thorough cleansing, after a trip in the train, for instance, a cold cream bath will remove the dirt, and the bran bath will finish the work in a satisfactory way. To make a bran bag mix equal quantities of powdered oatmeal and bran together and to a pint add one-half cupful of powdered soap. To this add about one ounce of powdered orris root. Fill small bags and use in the bath. Protection From the Sun. Before going out, lightly dab a little nongreasy face cream over the skin and then dust lightly over with some very good face powder. This effectively protects the complexion from the evil effects of exposure to a very hot sun, which, in spite of its health giving properties, serves to dry and burn the skin, causing it to wrinkle also if one does not take some such simple precaution as that prescribed. A little sunburn is becoming, but too much exposure to sun and air is fatal to all complexion beauty. Nerve Tonic. When you are tired and nervous a good rubbing all over the body with the lotion given here will be very restful. Lie quietly in bed after the rubbing for half an hour and you will then feel equal to taking up the daily tasks again. Take diluted alcohol, six ounces; cologne water, six ounces, and tannin, ten grains. Autumn Loss of Hair It is a well known fact that during the autumn the hair falls more freely than at any other season of the year; consequently one should really give the hair greater attention for some weeks previous and so prevent wholesale loss of it. Skin Tones. Lemon, orange and cucumber peels are excellent for the complexion. Let them soak in water used for the bath, as they not only soften but tone and freshen the complexion, keeping the flesh healthy and firm. Unless farmers are sufficiently interested in farm bureau work to form an effective organization which truly represents the farming interests of the county there is small chance of the county bureau meeting with great success, says the department of agriculture. It is not enough for professional and business men to interest themselves in the work; the farmers must feel that the bureau is theirs, that it is a means by which they can all cooperate in securing for the community at large every possible benefit and not an institution for conferring benefits on them individually. A county organization imbued with this spirit is a necessary preliminary to successful work by a county agent. ```markdown ``` HOW TO KILL POULTRY. Unsightly Product Is Caused by Incomplete Removal of Blood, "Grasp the chicken, when killing, by the bony part of the skull. Do not let the fingers touch the neck. Make a small cut with a small, sharp pointed knife on the right side of the roof of the chicken's mouth, just where the bones of the skull end. Brain for dry picking by thrusting the knife through the groove which runs along the middle line of the roof of the mouth until it touches the skull midway between the eyes. Use a knife which is not more than two inches long, one-fourth inch wide, with a thin, flat handle, a sharp point and a straight cutting edge." The above instructions on the proper methods of killing poultry were issued by the department of agriculture. At least 30- per cent. of all the-poultry coming into the New York market is incompletely bled. Much of it is so badly bled that it results in a loss of from 2 to 5 cents a pound, as compared with the corresponding poultry which is well bled and in good order, continues the department. Aside from the bad appearance of incompletely bled chickens, their keeping properties are very inferior. The flesh loses its firmness sooner; its flavor is not so good; the odor of stale flesh and finally of putrefaction comes sooner, and in every way the product is more perishable. A very large proportion of the unsightly poultry in our markets, aside from the rubbing and tearing of the skins, is caused by an incomplete removal of the blood. This is evidenced by red dots which frequently occur where the feathers have been removed, especially over the thighs and wings, or by the small veins, which mar the appearance of the neck. Generally it is the neck which shows most plainly the presence of blood in the fowl, or that a wrong method has been used in cutting the blood vessels in an attempt to empty them. The neck is the first part to discolor, becoming first red, then bluish red or purple and finally green as aging progresses. Vitality of Seed. Assuming that every care has been taken to get seed well adapted to the conditions of culture, it is still important to see that the seed is of good vitality and capable of producing strong, vigorous plants. Great waste of land and labor results every year from the use of seed of low vitality. Poor seed cannot produce good plants, and poor plants give poor returns or none at all. Seed should always be tested before planting and seed of low vitality rejected. Some of this poor seed is introduced to blend with good seed so that it can be sold at a lower price. Some of the worst weeds have been introduced and spread in this way. The loss from weeds, and the cost of fighting them is great and is so well understood as to need no discussion. Farmers often buy cheap seed thinking that they are saving money, when as a matter of fact they are paying two or three times as much for the small amount of good seed obtained as they would pay had they bought good seed in the first place at twice the rate per pound paid for the poor seed.-A. F. Woods, Dean Department of Agriculture, University Farm, St. Paul. SOME CHICKEN HINTS. The cripple and the malformed chicken should be put to death immediately after batching. Such little unfortunates will bring nothing but disappointment. They will give you more care than ten well and whole ones. They will make you sick of the chicken business and give your entire flock a black eye from the first. Kill them the instant they are born. Lousy fowls are necessarily weaker than fowls that are free from lice. Strength and vitality are quite important factors while the fowls are producing their new suit of clothes. Corn is a very poor grain when fed extensively. It produces fat at the expense of other tissue, and when laying hens are fed too much corn they soon become too fat to lay. There is no grain superior to wheat for chickens. It is readily eaten and as a rule laying hens thrive upon it. Those who grow wheat have a fine opportunity to raise chickens and sell eggs, for the, fowls may glean the stubble fields and save much grain that would otherwise be lost. The person who has never fed grit to his fowls will be surprised at the amount a flock of hens will pick up in the course of a year. The feed dealer keeps the best kind of grit, it being ground granite or other kind of rock. For the Children Marie Danaher, Prize Baby of Brooklyn. © 1914, by American Press Association. There was a great parade of babies in the borough of Brooklyn, New York city, a short time ago. It all came about through the advent of baby week, which was celebrated throughout the city. The parade was made in automobiles, and hundreds of little folks were in line, accompanied by their mothers and admirers. The president of the borough and other high officials revelled the parade, together with thousands of people who are interested in the welfare of children. The winner of the prize given for the best baby in Brooklyn was little Miss Marie Danaher. Marie is twenty-seven months old, and she won with a percentage of 98.07. That means that she come pretty near being a perfect baby—that is, so far as health is concerned. Beheading2. Whole, I am a wintry element. Behead me and I am the present time.

The great ank, which once lived in great numbers along the North Atlantic coast, going in summer as far north as Iceland or Greenland, is now absolutely extinct. All that is left of this once great bird tribe is a few stuffed skins in museums. The ank was about the same size as a well grown goose, and when standing erect had a height of about two feet. The pursuit of this awkward and harmless bird for its valuable feathers led to its final complete destruction. --- Same Spelling, Two Meanings.

Making It Last. A young man was lately leaving his aunt's house after a visit when, finding it was beginning to rain, he caught up an umbrella that was snugly placed in a corner and was proceeding to open it when the old lady; who for the first time observed his movements, sprang toward him, exclaiming: "No, no; that you never shall! I've had that umbrella twenty-three years, and it has never been wet yet, and I am sure it shan't be wetted now!"—London Express To Make Shaving Easier To shave easily and save the blades of safety razors, leave a pleasant feel on the face and make all razors take less stropping, adopt the following plan: Lather the face well and wash off the lather.

Hadn't Been Taught. Little Grace, who had recently entered, school, brought home some pumpkin seed one day and told her mother that the teacher said that although the seed was white the pumpkin would be yellow. "And what will the color of the vines be?" her mother asked. Grace replied that the teacher had not taught her that yet. "I know, dear, but we have pumpkin vines in our garden, and you must know what color they are." "Oh, of course I do, mother, but we ain't supposed to know anything until we're taught," replied Grace convincingly.—National Magazine. The Gordian Knot. When one of Uncle Sam's sailors, a man named Gordon, formerly serving on one of the vessels in a West Indian squadron, was taken to the Naval hospital in Washington he described with grewsome vividness to his companions there his adventure with a shark off one of the islands in the West Indies. "I had jest fell over the bulwarks," said the able seaman, "when along comes a big shark an' grabs me by the leg." "What did ye do then, matey?" asked one of the patients. "I never disputes none with sharks," said the sailor. "I let him have the leg." Her Choice. They were sisters-in-law and reasonably well disposed toward each other. One was the mother of George, aged six months, and the other was the mother of Marian, aged six months and four days. "Marian does not seem to grow very fast," said the mother of George, with a suggestion of commiseration in her tonnes "George is much taller"—(height being measured in inches). "Perhaps he is," replied the mother of Marian coldly, "but Marian weighs more." "Oh, well," responded the sister-in-law, with a smile of high bred superiority. "of course I should not wish George to be gross."—Exchange. Opposites. "It's such a world of opposites," says an observer. "On one side the rich, on the other side the poor.

He paused, then ended: "Yes, a world of opposites.

Leisurely and Systematic Ways of Doing It Will Prevent Exhaustion. A plentiful supply of small change is often of great help to the summer shopper. Much tedious waiting may be avoided if one always has the right change. In most of the department stores, of course, shoppers must wait for certain formalities to be gone through with, whether they are to receive change or not. But at certain counters in these stores—at the notion counter usually and sometimes where toilet goods and soaps are sold—the shopper who has the exact change may pocket her purchase and leave immediately. And in anything but a department store exact change makes quick purchasing easy. If you feel tired while shopping, rest. Exhaustion from heat can almost always be avoided. Rest is one way to avoid it. There are pleasant rest rooms in most of the big department stores, clean and comfortable, where you can relax for half an hour, an hour if need be, and regain strength and composure. If you are very tired, if your head throbs with heat, if you feel really ill from fatigue and warmth, select a comfortable chair; take off your hat, close your eyes and force yourself to relax. As soon as you are really refreshed go home. Leave the rest of the shopping for another day. The slogan "Shop early!" ought to be sounded in the summer time, both for the shopper and for the clerk, for in summer the early part of the day is surely the coolest. Moreover, in most of the big cities the stores close early in summer, and the woman who shops late in the afternoon is keeping the clerks from much desired rest and recreation. Cutting Small Pieces of Ice. When you have a large cake of ice and want a small piece to put in a glass you are somewhat helpless if you have no ice pick at hand. Use an ordinary pin instead of an ice pick and you can have the ice in pieces the size you desire. Press the pin into the ice as far as it will go and work it back and forth slowly and steadily until the ice splits. Then put the pin in a new place and make another cleft. In this way you can break off piece after piece of any desired size. Colored handkerchief linen dresses are in great demand. White serge suits are brightened by a touch of brilliant color.

The Tavistock, the bachelors' hotel in Covent Garden, is probably the only place in London where a man must drink his "dish" of tea after the fashion of a century and more ago. These dishes are cups without handles. They are larger than those used by our great-great-grandmothers, which would hardly suit the modern masculine demand. The Tavistock dishes are of uniform pattern-white china with a broad blue band.-Pall Mall Gazette- Mme. de Stael.

SHIN- Wright etor SAVANNAH GA. & COMPANY and Embalmers ention given all business everything of the latest style RAY AND BLACK CARS ing Establishment NED WITH— taking Company Negro Business League's Weekly Letter-by J. C. Lindsay In our letter of last week, we a tempted to call the attention of the public to some of the things with either help or hinder our progress from a business view point. Seeing the rapid progress made by many of the men of the race in this community and the unstated support given to these Negro businesses by thousands of loyal members of the race, we have much for which to feel thankful. A group of our men was standing on the street a few days since, discussing the information given to the public by The Tribune with reference to the doors of the Wage Earners new banking house being thrown open to the public on Monday, September 7, was heard to say: "Let us see who of this number will be the first to make a deposit in "Our" new bank after the doors are thrown open on that day." This is as it should be. The thoughtful members of the race in this community, are indeed proud of the two substantial and well managed banks which are doing so much for our people in assisting them in buying homes and to begin other legitimate business. We refer to the Wage Earners Savings Bank and the Mechanic Savings Bank, both of which are owned, operated and controlled by the dusky sons of Ham. In Holy writ we are told "As a man thinketh, so is he" Then, the man or set of men with hat or hats in hand or hands, who prefer to go to the back door of the other fellow's business and wait until every other man has been served and the place unmistakably clear and then some little up-start turns to you and say: "Now, old man, what will you have?" when your own kitten and kin can serve you with the very same goods, on the front, with courtesy and polite attention. We are forced to say that in these individuals the above mentioned scripture is fully explained. In the majority of cases where such errors as are complained of in the above are committed by members of the race, they are done as a matter of down right manners, but on the other hand, it simply because in the majority of cases the persons committing such errors have not given the matter proper thought. This thought brings us down to the real work of the Negro Business League, namely; to say and do such things as will cause our people to think. In attempting at times to have them think seriously upon certain business propositions, which so vitally concern us from a business stand point, some may criticise our course of procedure and disagree with our methods. Be that as it will or may, our only object is to make you think. At our headquarters, 457 West Broad street, we had a very interesting and enthusiastic meeting on last Friday night. Many thoughts and lively suggestions were present and ably discussed by Messrs G. H. Bowen, S. A. Grant, J. G. Gary, R. A. Harper, E W. Hus oun, J. C. Lindsay, Henry Star, L. M. Pollard, D. J. Scott, A. S. Singfield, J W. Welcher, S. A. Singfield, Edward Wright, H G. Young, E. G. Young, E. M. Elwards, Chas. A. Lewis, W. L. Vilinams, Jas. Handy, Valdore Gles. Thos. G. Young, R. Gillison, E. E. DesVerney, J. W. Johnson and O. T. Mitchell, Jr., D. O. C. Clayborne, Dr. A. R. Ferrebee, Dr. G. W. Smith, Dr. W. E. Moody, Rev. J. A. Martin, Rev. M. M. Weston and Rev. J. L. Taylor. After these gentlemen had offered many helpful suggestions as to the best methods of handling Negro businesses, keeping them up to the standard, and making them equal in every respect of the other fellows, as is our custom, we then enjoyed a splendid repast (free) and went to our several homes more determined to do something for the race than ever before in our lives. Rigular meeting 1st Wednesday and 3rd Friday nights of each month, $1,00 to join, 23 cents per month for dues. To those who read the Negro business League's weekly letter last week, written by Mr. J. C. Lissy: If you noticed carefully, people flatteringly of a preacher who dropped an insurance policy. NvLb me tell you how it was, that reacher belonged to three acres, and dropped the 25 one that he might keep the n int pays $40 per month in c of sickness, accidental or n d $1,000 in case of acc dental death. The district manager of that insurance, who, by the way, is a very fine looking man wearing eye glasses, keeps a cigar stuck in his mouth all the time and walks like he owns cotton in Augusta, but deceives his walk, came around to see that preacher to ask him to stay in the insurance, that he might use his name on the field as a drawing card. The preacher failed to pay up the insurance after Mr. hollow head's long speech which was filled with hot air, but spoke nothing about "he wasn't gwinter carry any more Nigger insurance," as was falsely written. He seems to know language, but couldn't spell bachelor (his way batchelor.) By publishing the preacher he will either write new business or lose some of the old that has already been written. He reminds me of the ox that stood on the track to fight the train, and the Irishman said to the ox, "I admire your nerve, but d—— your judgment," read between lines. T. C. Collier.

Slade Bill Killed Atlanta, July 22.—The House to-day promptly killed a bill by Slade and others of Muscogee to prescribe additional qualifications for voters. The measure provided that no man should be allowed to vote unless his character was such that he could "be trusted with a virtuous woman without fear of criminal assault in any and all secluded places even when not protected." The House after a brief debate disagreed to the favorable report of the committee by a vote of 108 to 16, the effect of which is to kill the bill. Sacred Concert A sacred concert will be given at Mt.

Pyorrhoea alveolaries or Rigg's disease which is common or prevalent in the mouths of the clean as well as the unclean, is encouraged by allowing calcarious deposits to find lodgment on the teeth and under the gums on the roots thereby causing the gums to become irritated. If this deposit is allowed the teeth and gums become highly inflamed, followed by a formation of pus which makes it necessary for the diseased teeth to be taken out. Since the great treatment Emitine Hydrochloride has been discovered, many teeth have been saved. Persons suffering with this dreaded disease can be treated at the dental parlor of Dr. A.
