BOWEN GOES TO NATIONAL BUSINESS LEAGUE WILL REPRESENT LOCAL BUSINESS LEAGUE Muskogee Meeting to be One of Best in History of League Local League. Has Done Much to Increase Interest in Local Business Enterprises. As a representative of the local Negro Business League, Mr. G. H. Bowen will attend the fifteenth annual meeting of the National Negro Business League which meets in Muscogee, Okla., on the 19th of the month. The local branch of the National Business League is one of the most wide awake and progressive units of the national body and has a membership of about seventy-five. It has done much to further the interests of the local Negro business men and holds a commanding position among the organizations for the uplift and advancement of the commercial side of the race in this city. In appreciation of his selection to represent the body at the Muscogee meeting, Mr. Bowen tendered the members of the league an informal reception at his office last Friday night and the affair was a most enjoyable one. Than Mr. Bowen the league could not have a better representative. He is one of the livest and most energetic business men of the city and the leading Negro real estate dealer here. During his stay of a little over three years in this city he has sold real estate to the value of two hundred and eighty-five thousand dollars. Among his sales were several of the choiceest pieces of real estate on West Broad street, a subdivision of 300 lots in the southwestern part of the city, known as Cann park; 800 lots in Central park, five miles on the White Bluff road and many fine residences in the city. Mr. Bowen's latest accomplishment was the organizing of the Union Development company which is capitalized at $50,000.00, ten percent of the amount having been already paid in and the charter for incorporation, which appears in this issue, applied for. The purpose of the company is to take over a valuable piece of property adjoining the Wage Earners new $40,000.00 bank building opposite the Union station. The property acquired by the company is 54 feet by 60, and the charter asked for will grant the company the privilege of increasing the capital stock to $100,000.00. The company will not only improve their West Broad street property but will from time to time acquire other valuable real The Savannah Tribune Berean Association Meeting in Waycross The Berean Association and B.

T REDD, S. K, C. of the Knights of Moses. Guaranty Insurance Gives Outing Guaranty Insurance Gives Outing OVER. FOUR HUNDRED. ENJOY TRIP TO DAUFUSKIE Company Did $72,298.06 Business Last Year—Has 17,000 Policy Holders,. Operates 26 .Officers Throughout State and has 115 Employees—J. S. Causey Wins First Prize. The Guaranty Health and Life Insurance Company complimented its local agency force and friends with an all day outing to Daufuskie Island last Saturday and the affair was one of much enjoyment. The outing was given in recognition of the successful ending of the contest to increase the local debit of the company, waged for the past few months between two forces formed by the local agents. A prize of one hundred dollars was offered by the company and there was much spirited rivalry manifested by the opposing forces, the Herculean army, under the leadership of J. S. Causey, winning by a slight margin. Aside from this, there were also two prizes, ten and five dollars each, offered for the largest individual increase in business written. These were won by J. S Causey and T. A. Milledge, respectively. The presentation of the prizes was made with much ceremony at exercises on the pavilion at Daufuskie last Saturday, the crowd of over four hundred excursionists vociferously cheering the victors. The Guaranty Mutual Life and Health Insurance Company is a local company with headquarters at 506 West Broad street. It was organized in 1904 and is one of the most widely known industrial insurance companies in the state. It has in effect about 17,000 policies approximating $500,000.00 in value. The amount paid out last year in sick and death claims was $29,881.90, and for the first six months in 1914, $16,261.07.

REDD, SUPREME KNIGHT COMMANDER Large Representation Expected at Meeting—Order Steadily Increasing—Financial Standing Very Satisfactory—Several New Lodges Set Up During Last Few Months.. The grand lodge of the Knights of Moses Benevolent and Fraternal Association will convene in Waycross, Ga., on the 19th of this month and will remain in session until the afternoon of the 22nd.

The order is composed of thirty lodges throughout the state and has a membership of about one thousand. Rev. S. T. Redd, of this city, is supreme knight commander of the order and will preside at the Waycross meeting. About four years ago, the order was reorganized at Alamo, Ga., and since that time has steadily increased. Among the reorganizers of the order are some of the most influential and substantial Negroes of the state. A recent statement issued by the bank at Alamo shows the finances of the order to be in good standing. The order, as its name implies, is a fraternal organization with all of the beneficent features known to orders of this nature. It has deposited in the state treasury the required $5000.00 for the protection of its policy holders Colored Carnegie Library Dedication Draws Large Crowd The dedicatory exercises of the Colored Carnegie Library, Henry street, east, were attended by a very large and representative crowd. The principal address of the afternoon was delivered by Prof. S. A. Grant and was very commendable. Music for the occasion was rendered by the First Congregational Church choir. Mr. A. L. Tucker, chairman of the board of curators for the library, presided at the exercises. The board was very much pleased with the attendance at the opening exercises and wishes to thank the public for their generous support of the movement which made the library possible. Mrs. Annie B. Fields gave a social in honor of the bride elect, Miss Lizzie G. Smoak, last Thurs day evening at her home on west 37th street. A. Rev. W. W. WARTHEN at Butler Presbyterian Church Tomorrow. Rev. W. W. Warthen to Supply Arnold St. Baptist Church. Rev. W. W. Warthen will supply the pulpit of the Arnold St. Baptist Church while the pastor, Rev.

Lesson VII.—Third Quarter, For Aug. 16, 1914. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson, Matt, xxi, 33-46 Memory Verses, 42-44—Golden Text, Matt, xxi, 42—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. During these last days of the week preceding His crucifixion as He taught daily in the temple and went at night to the Mount of Olives He spake many things in His farewell messages to this unbelieving nation. Most of them are recorded by Matthew, Mark and Luke, but some by Matthew only. This lesson, concerning the vineyard and the wicked husbandmen, is recorded in each of the first three gospels. It is the old story of the love of God and the base and sinful ingratitude of man. He loves the whole world, and "whosoever" meane any one anywhere in the wide world (John ill, 16). He chose Israel to be a peculiar treasure unto Him above all people. He separated them from all people to be His inheritance. He brought them unto Himself that they might be a people near to Him, and He never dealt so with any other nation. He did this for them that through them other nations might learn to know Him for their good. (Ex. xix, 4, 5; 11 Sam. vii, 22-24; 1 Kings vii, 53; Ps. exvii, 20; exvii, 14; Isa. xiii, 11-14) Israel being set aside for an age, He is gathering from all the nations the willing whosoever to be a peculiar people unto Himself that through them the world may believe and know Him (Tt. ii, 14; John xvii, 21, 23). The church, these called out ones, is falling as Israel failed, but He shall not fall or be discouraged, and in His time and in His way there shall be seen on earth the consummation of His eternal purpose in a kingdom of righteousness and peace which shall never end. His dealings with Israel and their treatment of Him were written for our benefit that we might avoid their failures and bear better fruit than they did (I Cor. x, 6; Rom. xv, 4). We have seen recently that Israel was compared to a vine and also to a fig tree and an olive tree, but the one thing always desired was fruit. Compare Ezek. xv and John xv. The most full account of Israel as a vineyard is found in Isa. iv, 1-7, where His care of it is described somewhat as in our lesson, and He asks, "What could have been done more to my vineyard that I have not done in it?" Compare Ps. xxx. 8; 9; Jer. ii, 21; Hos. x, 1. The householder's going to a far country for a long time (verse 33; Luke xx, 9) reminds us of the story of the pounds and talents, but there is evidently a backward look here to the days of the prophets, as in Matt. xxill, 34-39, as well as to this present age. A summary of their treatment of the Lord and His messengers is found in II Chron. xxxvl, 16. "They mocked the messengers of God and despised His words and misused His prophets until the wrath of the Lord arose against His people, till there was no remedy." He was only seeking that which was His own, fruit from His own vineyard for which He had done all that He could, some gratitude for all His love to them. Surely a reasonable expectation on His part, but this cruel treatment of His servants and thus of Himself was their reply to all that He had done for them. Having servant after servant, only to receive the same fil treatment, last of all He sent unto them His son, saying, "They will reverence My Son" (verse 37). The record in Mark xii, 6 is "Having yet therefore one Son, His well beloved, He sent Him also last unto them." But they said when they saw Him, "This is the heir; come, let us kill Him and let us seize on His inheritance." This they did, and our Lord asks what shall be done unto such husbandmen. Their reply is in verse 41. So He condemns them out of their own mouth. Then He showed them from their own Scriptures that all their evil conduct had been foreseen by the God who so loved them. But it was as plainly foretold that the rejected one would yet be the honored one. He called their attention to Ps. cxvll. 22, no doubt having in mind also Gen. xlix, 24, for there is no more wonderful type of Christ in the whole Bible than Joseph in his sufferings and his glory, his cruel treatment and virtual death at their hands, their rejection of him and his dreams and their literal fulfilling of the same in bowing down to him for their lives after so many years. Our Lord had probably in mind also Isn. xxvll. 16; Dan. 11, 34, 35, 45. See the references of Peter and Paul to the same great truths concerning Christ as the stone rejected, but yet to be honored (Acts iv. 11; 12; I Pet. 11, 6; Eph. 11, 20). When men grow angry in their rebellion against God and nations rage and kings and rulers take counsel against Him He can laugh at their impotence and say in quietness, "Yet have I set my King upon my holy hill of Zion" (Ps. 11, 1-6). The believer may well rejoice that "the counsel of the Lord standeth forever, the thoughts of His heart to all generations," that "every purpose of the Lord shall be performed" and say gladly, "I know that Thou canst do everything and that no thought of Thine can be hindered" (Ps. xxxiii, 11; Jer. 11, 2; Job xlii, 2; margin). But what about the fruit, the much fruit, which the branches should be yielding Him because of His great, unfailing, unchanging love? Is He seeing in us of the travail of His soul?

Perry, Supt A. B. Sinefeld, Saint A. B. Singfield, Gen'l Supt. - Adr New York's First Law School. Now that New York's four law schools are graduating hundreds of pupils annually, it is interesting to recall the time when New York had no law school and a local newspaper could say, "It is strange if a series of law lectures in so large a city as New York would not pay." This was printed in June, 1855, in an item which began, "Mr. George H. Moore stated at the late alumni dinner of New York university that a law department of that institution was really created, and its professors really delivered their inaugural addresses." Benjamin F. Butler, Esq., Judge Kent and the late David Graham constituted the law faculty—New York Tribune. How He Lost It. Some time, comments the Manchester Guardian, in telling this story, one suspects the coming generation of artfulness. The boy approached his parent and said, "Father, do you know the tide came up and carried off my comic paper?" "Don't worry, my son." said the genial parent, "It can't be helped." It was at this point that an angry and inconsistent father proved that it could and ought to have been helped. An Ornament to Paris. The Place de la Concorde in Paris is one of the most beautiful places of its kind in the world. It was not until 1763 that the grounds were first adorned by the erection of an equestrian statue of Louis XV. and Gabriel, the architect, constructed the balustrades and pavilions that are seen today. The present design, however, was made by Hittorf in 1854. In 1792 the statue of the king was removed by the populace, and the square became known as the Place de la Revolution. During the bloody period the guillotine was placed here, and Louis XVI was executed on Jan. 21, 1793, and in the following October the unfortunate Marie Antoinette shared a like fate. His Hot Dinner. The voice of the tempter was heard outside the works at Saturday midday. "Bill, come and 'ave a plut." "Not me; I've a nice 'ot dinner waiting." At this point the hospitable man lost his temper. "Go 'ome, ole man, to your bread and mustard."—Manchester Guardian. --- THE Red Cross society celebrates its fifteenth birthday during August. Fifty years have rolled by since the holding of that first international convention in Geneva, Switzerland, when the Red Cross treaty was adopted. That was on Aug. 22, 1864. For a half century the humanitarian arms of the civilized nations of the world have been marching to the relief of distressed peoples under the banner of the red cross on a white ground. Almost in every place where human beings exist today the Red Cross is recognized as the insignia of mercy, succor and neutrality. Partly due to the work of the United States sanitary commission in safeguarding the health and alleviating the suffering of the sick and wounded during the civil war, conferences were held in Geneva in 1863 and 1864, at which first fourteen, then twenty-five countries were represented, out of which grew the organization and recognition of permanent Red Cross societies throughout the world. Field Photo by American Press Association RED CROSS NEUPS PARADISE. RED CROSS NURSES PARADING. agents of the United States sanitary commission subsequent to the convention of 1664 were the first relief workers to use the red cross sign and flag in actual service. Now that the world forces are engaged in a titanic struggle the preparations of the Red Cross are on a scale so vast that the dollars expended will rise into millions and the numbers of nurses and doctors sent to the scene of the fighting to the tens of thousands. The American Red Cross society has chartered a ship and will send to each country involved in war doctors, nurses and hospital supplies. The ship will sail under the Red Cross flag and by treaty can enter any harbor in the discharge of its beneficent duty. There is scarcely a civilized country in the world which has not its Red Cross society. Turkey, where the sign of the cross may enter not, has the Red Crescent society in its place. The endowment fund of Austria is over a million dollars, and with property valued at $741,249 the total wealth of the organization in that country amounts to well over $2,000,000. There are over $5,000 Red Cross members in Austria. The estimated wealth of the French Red Cross body amounts to nearly $5,000,000. The Russian Red Cross is a strong one. For the purpose of facilitating the work of tremendous detail and importance done by the Red Cross its activities are in charge of four bureaus—the medical bureau, the bureau of nursing, the bureau of material and the bureau of information. In the United States there are over 5,000 nurses ready for a call of the Red Cross. The organization in this country is relatively new and has but a fraction of the strength which it has attained in some of the European countries since its inception in Geneva. As a preparation for the service which will take them into camps where sanitation is of the most primitive and into low lands and marshes where climatic conditions are almost fatal to the newcomer every man or woman who will see service under the Red Cross insignia is vaccinated against smallpox and inoculated with anti-typhoid serum. One of the interesting features of the Red Cross activities in connection with the present war is the possibility of the using of Esperanto as a medium of communication between the nurses and doctors of various countries. The officers of the German and French Red Cross societies have been particularly interested in the teaching of Esperanto to their surgeons and nurses. A few years ago at a Red Cross gathering in Dresden all exercises were conducted in this language, and it is possible that while the powers of Europe are engaged in the greatest conflict of modern history the nurses and surgeons of the Red Cross will be wiping out geographical and national barriers by communicating with one another in a tongue significant of universal brotherhood. Milady's Mirror Sun Baths For the Hair. In some cases the scalp becomes extremely dry and the hair wry and brittle when exposed to the salt air. It is then necessary to use a lit oil to replace the natural oil. While the sun has an ill effect upon wet hair'(salt water) it is very beneficial when the hair is dry. So while at the seashore a daily sun bath will be good. Take off the cap, shake out the hair and let it float in the breeze, running the fingers through so the hair roots may be benefited by the air, sun and ventilation. This treatment if persevered in will be found to work wonders and incidently mean a saving of time and money, for professional treatment will be entirely unnecessary upon the return home. Headache Cure. For summer headaches there is nothing better than an aromatic sponge. Any good cologne or toilet water can be employed for this, though Florida water, bay rum and lavender water are perhaps the most effective. Fill a basin with very hot water. Add cologne until the vapor of steam arising from the mixture is pungent; then with a bit of old, soft table linen dipped into the water bathe the face gently, patting it rather than rubbing it. Use a rotary motion on forehead and temples and when the face feels soothed reheat the water or add more, dip the cloth into it, wring out a little and allow the dripping cloth to rest at base of brain and behind the ears. Then lie with body relaxed and eyes closed for at least fifteen minutes. Shapely Finger Nails. To keep the finger nails a good shape file them every day rather than cut them once or twice a week. Before filing the hands should be thoroughly washed with soft water and good soap. The file should be used lightly from the sides to the middle. Don't trim the nails to a point; it is ugly. A rounded form is far prettier. A little good cold cream or olive oil should be rubbed into the nails before filing if they are inclined to be brittle. It will prevent them from splitting. A Cleansing Cream. For cleansing the skin try the following cream: One-half ounce each of white wax and spermaceti, two ounces oil of sweet almonds and two ounces of rosewater. Melt the wax and spermaceti, add the almond oil and when well blended remove from the fire and add the rosewater, stirring briskly till cool and creamy. You can dissolve a tiny pinch of borax in the rosewater if you wish or can add ten drops tincture, of benzoin while stirring the cream. Saw the Entire Faces. A man at the international polo games remarked that he had never seen women's faces look so well. He puzzled at it until a woman enlightened him as to the reason—their hair was brushed away from the brow and temples. This new collage shows all the face, and it even goes so far as to uncover the ears. This is a part of a woman's anatomy that she has skillfully kept from the public for the last four years. Eyebrow Tonic A good tonic for the eyebrows is made with two ounces of petroleum jelly, one dram of tincture of cantharides, fifteen drop of oil of lavender and fifteen drops of oil of rosemary. Apply night and morning with a tiny brush. This can also be used on the eyelashes, but must not be allowed to get in the eyes since any oily preparation will infiltrate them. Damp Hands. Needlewomen who suffer from damp hands will find it is an excellent plan to rub the palms of the hands occasionally with a solution of borax in a little alcohol. When sewing keep a sponge saturated with the solution ready at hand and occasionally squeeze it in the palms of the hands, allowing the moisture to dry without wiping. Nervous Headaches. Nervous headaches are a common complaint among women. If a doctor is not consulted the best treatment is to keep the patient in bed and allow nothing to come near her which might worry her. All troubles should be kept away and perfect quiet preserved until the overwrought nerves resume their natural condition. The Secret of Beauty. Good health, good grooming and a good complexion are the secret of feminine beauty and charm, and it is a woman's own fault if she does not possess all these. Much depends upon her choice and use of her toilet accessories, for eternal vigilance is the price of beauty as well as of liberty. Deep Breathing When you breathe deeply your muscles gradually strengthen, your eyes glow like twin stars, your chest becomes full and rounded and your pale cheeks are stained a vild red. JUST out of her teens. Grand Duchess Marie of Luxemburg faces a crisis in her career as ruler of the second smallest independent kingdom of the world, for the Germans have ignored the neutrality of Luxemburg and used that route to advance into France. The small grand duchy lies in the direct line between Berlin and Paris, although not connected with the latter city by railroad. The fact that its fortifications were dismantled and there is no chance to offer any defense against an invasion makes it the logical point from which the kaiser could pour his troops into France, and he made the most of it. Since the time when robber barons of the twelfth century stole the small section from the kingdom of Charlemagne Luxemburg has been in the control of practically all the powers of Europe. At different times she has belonged to Spain, Austria, France, Germany, Holland and Belgium. In 1S15 it was made a grand duchy and taken into the Germanic federation. By the treaty of London in 1S67 it was proclaimed neutral territory, and all the fortifications were dismantled. It was then under the control of the king of Holland and remained a part of the Dutch monarchy until 1S80. At that time Queen Wilhelmina ascended the throne, and the Slaie law prevented her ruling over Luxemburg. The throne of the grand duchy was then given to Duke Adolph of Nassau, a direct descendant of William of Orange. His only children were women, and it appeared probable that the throne would again change hands. But the Luxemburg parliament decided differently. Setting aside all precedent, the oldest daughter of the grand duke was declared the heir apparent. Her claims were disputed by Count Merenburg of the Nassau family, but he was overruled. Unlike Belgium, Luxemburg has never before been used as a battle ground by the French and Germans. When France controlled Lorraine her string of forts on the frontier made the territory very strong against attack. Then, too, the rocky hills and crooked rivers of the grand duchy made it difficult to move troops through that section. But since the annexation of Lorraine by Germany and the dismantling of the forts in Luxemburg, the French frontier at that point has been made the most handy for an attacking force. THE MUSEUM OF ART AND COLLECTIONS MARIE LOUSE, DUCHESS OF LUXEMBURG, AND SECTION OF CAPITAL From Verdun to Belgium the French border has been laid open to the attacks of an enemy. The German railroad system has made Luxemburg a valuable strategic point. Lines from the large German cities converge in the city of Luxemburg coming from Cologne, Coblentz, Mainz, Thilonville and Metz. These lines are all part of the system of the German empire. By the treaty of Frankfort, France is not allowed to connect her lines with the eastern part of this system. After much discussion an exception was made in 1891 which permitted the French to run lines to Arlon in Belgium and to Metz. Luxemburg contains 998 square miles and is mostly mountainous country, being situated on the plateau of Ardennes. It has a total population of 295,543. The capital is the city of Luxemburg, which is 117 miles southeast of Brussels, thirty-four miles north of Metz and 200 miles from Paris. When it was held by the Prussian troops it was so strongly fortified that it was called the "Gibraltar of the North." In 1900 it had a population of a little more than 20,000. At the time when France and Germany were both having troubles in Africa it was said that the Germans would give France certain concessions on that continent if they were allowed to annex Luxemburg. At that time the French refused to make such an agreement, since they considered the neutrality of Luxemburg was of importance in guarding the weakened frontier. Although, as is the case with Belgium and Switzerland, Luxemburg is a neutral country, she has not been permitted by the powers to have an army. On that account there was no way of making Germany respect her neutrality, and the kaiser was left free to move his troops through the little grand duchy.

Well, When Napoleon When Napoleon was a youth of ten while at the military school at Brienne he wrote to his mother in Corsica, "With Homer in my pocket and my sword by my side I hope to carve my way through the world." In the novels the husband strolls into the conservatory for a little smoke before dinner. In real life he strolls into the kitchen and raises blue blazes with the light of his life because dinner isn't ready. The first golf balls were made of untanned bull's hide, two rounds forming the ends, another the middle. These pieces were softened, shaped and firmly sewed together, a small hole being left through which feathers could later be stuffed—a difficult process accomplished with the aid of a steel rod.

The Joy That Killed. A senator was praising the humor of a certain congressman. of a certain congressman. "His humor, however," he concluded, "is rather grim. I told him the other day about a mutual acquaintance who had dled, a man he had never liked. "And his wife is dead, too," I said. 'He himself died on Monday; his wife died two days later. The papers didn't say what killed her.' "She was tickled to death. I guess,' said the congressman grimly." LOOK WITHIN. The Chinese in archery have one rule, which they call the "Rule of the Superior Man."

Saturday August 15, 1914 The thoughtful Negroes of the city are very much exercised over; the statement published in the daily papers of last week, in which it was reported that the two: higher grades in the three Ne- gro public schools, the seventh and eighth, would be transferred tothe new Cuyler street school, that ninety minutes would be tak- en from the academic work and applied on industrial features and thatin order to accomplish this some of the less important subjects. would be eliminated. The Ne- groes need rightly be exercised over these contemplated changes, | for if they are carried through, ‘they will greatly weaken the school system and deny the Negro childcen of the city that necessary fundamental training which they as all other children sorely need. To force all eighth and seventh grade Negro children to come to the new Cuyler street school will unquestionably work a hardship on the greater number of them, as the majority of them will be forced to walk long distances twice a day through all conditions of weather, if they hope to do the work as- signed them. Many of the child- ren will have to come from sec- tions of the city that are at least two miles distant from the school aad it takes but little thought to see theirbefaggled condition, both mentally and physically, after walking this distance, many of them being too poor even to pay street car fare. Then, too, to force these children to attend school so far away from their homes defeats the very idea that the board of education is attempt- ing to carry out—tohaveall child- ren attend the school in the dis- trict nearest them. Further, to cut off ninety minutes from the academic school work would greatly lessen their chances of even a grammar school course. ‘The course as_now taught in our city schools affords the only edu- cation that most of these children get. As the course is now, only the fundamental subjects are taught in the grammar schools and we cannot see that any of these studies can be eliminated without great loss to the pupils. The changes contemplated will greatly bandicap all the Negro schools inthecity. It seems to, us that some plan for carrying on the industrial feature of the work mignt have been devised so that the academic work would not be sacrificed and that all of the schools remain asthey are now until the board of education is able to iatroduce the industrial feat- unesinall the schools. We feel that the Negroes of the city are justly ayitated over this matter and that the board of education should be importuned not to make the contemplated changes. A good grammar school education should be afforded every child in the community, irrespective of color. Up toa few gears ago, one of the proud possessions of our peo- ple was the grace and symmetry which marked their indulgence in the terpsichorean art. To those who liked it, dancing was indeed a fine art, the cultivation of which brought both graceful lines to the body and coneliness to the feat- ures. Void of all frill suggestive in the least, of the improper. it was a pastime indulged in not only by members of the younger’ set but by their parents as well, ‘To- day, what a great change hastaken place! In this day of the so-called modern dance, the graceful waltz, two-step, lancers and the like of our parents have almost been rel- ‘egated to the rear ahd in their stead have come such suggestive dances as the tango and its many interpretations such as the St. Louis. the bunny hug, the Balti- more hop, and the like. To any one who has any doubt as to the impropriety of these so-called dances and their evil effect upon the youths who indulge in them, a visit to sume of our dance halis and picnic boats where these dances are given their full inter- pretation, will suffice. There is no doubt ahout the fact that these dances are altogether corrupting in their influences. Interpreted as they are, they fall little short of arousing the most baneful pas- sions of those whoengagein them. And no onecan measure their con- sequences. We believe that the time is at hand when some effort shou!d be put forth by those of us who have the welfare of our grow- ing youth at heart to put a-ban on these wicked and yice producing evolutions of our young people. If dancing is to be continued among us, it ought to be done so as an innocent pastime and not as acorrupting influence that savors of the most evil consequences. The Tribune has no hesitancy in saying, away with these dances. The hall authorities that knowing- ly allow them, cannot escape the {sonderanstion of allowing on their premises a form of entertainment that runs almost parallél with the “free and easy” dives of our worst sections. We appeal to them to- gether with the preachers, teach- ers and, other leaders of thought, as well as the parents of our boys and girls, to begin an immediate crusade against such vulgar danc- ing. Thevulgar dance will go if the right pressure is brought to bear upon it. We believe that this can be done by individual ef- fort. Over Home News, Beaufort, 5S. C. (J. 8, Blocker, Correspondent.) Saturday the ist of August, was igiven over to the National Teachers’ Association, whiclr vis- ited our town during its annual session at Savannah. The steamer Pilot Boy, with over four hundred on board, reached Beaufort about 2:30 p. m. and was met at the wharf by a com- mittee of citizens, who escorted the distinguished visitors to Har- binson Institute Campus, where welcome addresses were made by Rey.

The luncheon over, the visitors scattered over, the town and took in the various places of interest. They left for the return trip to Savannah at 5 o'clock sharp, highly pleased with Beaufort and Beaufort’s hospitality. The people of this historic town enjoyed the com- ing of such distinguished men and women of our race and have been very much beriefited by their presence.

In Memoriam In sad but loving remembrance of, Mr. JOHN HENRY JONES. Who departed this life August 13th, 1910. Sleep on, dear brother, and take thy rest, we love thee well but Jesus love thee best, sleep on, dear one, sleep on. It is our lost but heaven's gain, though you left me in grief and pain, never to suffer again. When I go to your grave to shed a tear to ease my aching heart, it makes me feel that I hear your sweet gentle voice say, sister dry your tears and be of good cheer, all things are well. we both will understand it better by and by when we will talk the story over, it will be howdy and never good bye. Sister, Mrs. Annie Bruton. What They Thought. The carter brought a heavy load of coal to the doors of an English county lunatic asylum and, getting no answer to his ring, entered and strolled along the corridors. No one was about, and, seeing a door, he opened it and stepped inside. No one was there. Then the door closed, and he found himself in a padded cell. Presently some visitors entered and peered pityingly through an aperture in the door. "Please open the door," he pleaded. "I've brought a load of coal." "Ah," said one of the party. "that's his delusion. Some think they are the king or the mikado or Napoleon Bonaparte. This poor fellow thinks he's a coal porter. Come along." Then they went on and left him. An Ancient Leg of Mutton. There is a genuine antique leg of mutton to be seen in Bourne, in Lincolnshire. More than half a century ago a visitor called at a butcher's shop there and purchased a leg of mutton, saying he would take it away later. But the customer never returned, and year after year the joint has awaited him until, hanging from one of the rafters of the quaint old shop, it has become one of the fixtures and has passed with the business from one proprietor to another. During the more than fifty years of waiting for its purchaser the leg has withered away and is now shrunk to the semblance of a club of knotted wood.-London Tatler.

Death of President's Wife Is Deeply Felt All Over the Country. The sudden demise of “Mrs. Wood- row Wilson has cast a gloom over the entire country. The sympathy of all the American people has gone out to President Wilson, Beset by perplex- ing problems of government at home and abrond, the president is now com- pelled to bear the burden of a domes- tic affiction that Is heavy Indeed. It is characteristic of the president that even in the darkening hours of his pri- vate grief he avolded no public respon- sibility and left no public duty un- done.

Before marriage Mrs, Wilson was Miss Ellen Louise Axsen, daughter of Samuel Ldward and Margaret Jane | (fost) Axsen. She was born in Sa- /Vanuah, Ga. and there she received her carly education at home before en- tering Womun's college at Rome, Ga In the latter city ber father, a Presby- terian minister, had‘a church. She was married in Savannah, and, follwing the marriaze, Mr. Wilson be- came a member of the faculty of Bryn Mawr collese, where he became pro- fessor of history and political econo- my. Later he was called to a chair in Wesleyan university, and then went to Princeton, frst as a professor of his- tory and later becoming president of that university. In the life of these educational institutions Mrs. Wilson's kindly Influence made itself felt, as tt did later in Trenton and at Washing- ton. Mrs. Wilson was the companion and adviser of her husband. In bis home life the president was dependent upon upon ber, She was a lover of books, as is her busband, and constantly ther “read together and in the family circle.

There are epaulettes of velvet combined with faney but- tons on the shoulders, The raglan sleeve is finished with deep turned back cuffs. The coat is suittble for general wear in the fall or makes a convenient wrap for the motorist or traveler. a ADJUSTING WAISTS. Tape Stretched Across the Back Is Convenient. Since separate blouses area necessity with tailored suits bere is x good point to remember Instead of sewing the tape at the wuist ne down on the waist all around leave pe fronts loose and stitch the tape cily across the back: This will give ends that can be brought around™ani ted in front. You can regulate the fullness much more easily by this method and so pre- vent bulging in an unsightly manner. Before sewing the tape to the waist be sure you get tt adjusted properly at the waist Hine; otherwise it will be very uncomfortable. Another good method of keeping skirts and waists together 1s to fasten a broad stay plece acro&s the back of the waist or blouse. To this fasten large otdinary eyes and sew to the in- side of the skirt band heavy tlat hooks to correspond. Round eyes buttenholed in twist may be used on sitk and sheer waists. : = BRILLIANT COLORS. French Dressmakers Favor Them For Their Most Elegant Creations. ‘The covturiers of Paris are featuring odd combinations of materials in their latest creations. Silk, linen and pique will be effectively allied in one model, while another is fashioned of voile, silk and batiste. Blouses have jumper effects of one material worn o¥er guimpes of another, while the skirts are formed of long Dutch tunics and underskirts of con- trasting weaves. Brillfant colors are combined with ecru, white, dark blue or gray. The designs selected are bold and striped fabrics are general favorites, and many of the long’tunies are evolved from these striking materials. Closely Woven Crape. The popular cotton crape is a very fine, close weaving, resembling its more expensive sister, crepe de chine, and the ratine—or sponge cloth—Iis also finer and closer than that worn last year. Both come in a large range of colors; of which at the moment pink is estremely fashionable, ranging’ from the palest blush to the deepest rose tints, also light or dark pekin blue, maure, mastic and dove gray.

That wonderful street of shops in Paris known as the Rue de Rivoli was begun in 1802 and was named in hon- or of Napoleon’s victory at Rivoli in 1797 during the Italian campaign. It was not finished, however, until 2865. during the relgn of Napoleon IIL, to whom Paris {s indebted for much of {ts grandeur. Luna and the Tides. There is little room for doubt about the theory that the tides are due to the moon's action upon the surface of the water. Of course there are other influences—the sup, for instance, ex- ercising no mean force upon tlg tides —but the chief influence is attributa- ble to the moon. ‘To be sure, there is hardly any theors that 1s not object- ed to by somebody. but the theory that tidal action is due mainly to the pull of Luna iay be accepted “with. out 1 reasonable doubt.”—New York American. . Golden Horséshoes. Roman writers inform us that Com- modus caused the hoofs of his horse to be gilded. Nero when he undertook short journeys was always drawn by mules that had stlyer shoes, and those of his -wife, Poppaea, had shoes of gold. From a passage in “Dio Cassius” there is reason to think that the upper part only was formed of those noble metals or that they were perhaps plat- ed out of thin slips. When Boniface, marquis of Tuscany, one of the richest princes of bis time, went to Beatrix, about the year 1033, bis whole train was so magnificently decorated that his horses ‘were shod with silver. The nails were even of the same metal. ee ee hat foie The Doting Mamma (after the bril- Mant plano solo)—My daughter tas been practicing éfor six years..

Lindsay The writer of this letter does not mean to préach a doctrine of business segregation, for well does he know that the few short years of business experience and opportunity which we have had as Negroes, would make this’ im- possible, and aside from ‘this, a doctrine of this kind would not fare so well in the presence of the “almighty dollar.” But let us all join the local branch of the Negro Business League just for a few moments that we might have a heart to heart talk concerning our business opportunities and what we are doing about them, A very brilliant writer in a recent article said, that the Negro in- surance companies of this city paid out $1,766.70 on the first week in July, to one hundred and forty-eight Negro men and wo- men, as salary for one wecek’s work, Now ‘wait, don’t give three cheers yet, because right here I am going to say that the aggregated amount covilected hy the companies on this particular week would only amount to some- thing ‘like $3000.00, and that if a certain number of us would co-orperation and bend our every effort toward the success of what kind of busines that we may choose to enter, as the insurance men are doing, the time is not far off before these one hundred and forty-eight -employees with a boasted payroll of $1,766.70 per week will only be a thing of his- tory, hastily giving away too much large volumes of business, if in conjunction with the afore said admonition we would only adhere to two of the principles of the Negro Business League namely co-orperation and patro- nage, because around these prin- ciples revolve the delicate fabric of business as the earth and the other planets revolve around the sun. The lack of ability has at last become an ancient and time-worn argument and has long since lost its flavor. The proof of this as- sertion can be éasily found. If one would begin at the Union Station walking south on West Broad street, after passing that handsome $40,000. building of the Wage Earners Loan and Invest- ment Company to a distance of several blocks, carefully inspect- ing the many and various kinds of first class buildings and busi- nesses, owned ‘and conducted by our people, no further proof would be needed. Now about that heart-to-heart talk I mentioned in the begin- ning of this article may be best concluded by giving you the statement of an insurance mana- ger made a few days ago. He said: “It became rumored that I) needed a clerk, I was surprised to see the host of yeung women, some of them of-very tender ages, who came to see me, all filing) their applications for this position | My sympathy was aroused be- cause they were young women of intelligence and refinement, but being unable to employ more! than one clerk their applications were denied. A picture of these’ young women follow me still, and I am asking this qusetion; who is weponsible for the employ ment of our young women?” ‘Right here, dear friends, the writer wishes to say that the question seems to be a rather broad one and he is going to leave it open for public discus- sion. These are some of the prob- lems we hope to solve by support- ing the Negro Business League with our membership, presence and thoughts.
