Sketch of a Sermon by Rev. H. M.
Turner, LL. D., Delivered in St.
James.Tabernacle, 11 o'cloek A. M.
Nov. 28, 1875.
Reported by A. E. C.
"Thou God Seeth Me," Gen. 16:13. The words of my text, as you will see, are inscribed upon the front of the pulpit, and they seem to be highly appropriate for our consideration, upon our first attempt to speak a word for our Maker after the consecration of this edifice.
"Thou God Seeth Me." These words were uttered by Hagar, the handmaid of Sarah, the wife of Abraham, while she was a fugitive in the wilderness, endeavoring to escape from the jealous displeasure of Sarah. You are likely too well acquainted with the narrative for me to expend your time in reviewing it; should there be any who are not, however, I would recommend them to read and study this chapter, as it very aptly pictures God's dealings with us in a manner too significant to ever be forgotten afterward.
In this age of scepticism, and what is worse; pantheism—all-Godism, if you choose—when men are trying to overturn the truth of revelation, and make the Bible a myth, and the religion of ages a mere passion of fanaticism of superstitions frenzy, we cannot examine this question too closely. The times are evil, and doctrines are put forth successantly, fraught with danger through robed in the finest fabric of apparent reason and religious philosophy.—"Thon God Seeth Me." That there is a God, that he is omnipresent, almighty, and possesses those attributes accorded to him by protestant Christianity, I shall presume to be admitted by all in this sacred edifice, and upon that presumption we proceed, to notice—
1st. That God is every where present and no where absent. Says the Psalmist: "Whither shall I go from Thy spirit, or whither shall I flee from Thy presence. If I ascend into heaven Thou art there. If I make my bed in hell, behold thon art there." Again, if I say surely the darkness shall cover me, yea the darkness hideth not from Thee, but the night shineth as the day. The darkness and the light are both attke to thee." That God the sovereign of the universe fills all space, and comprehends all the conditions of his
2918 NEGRO PUPILS IN PUBLIC SCHOOL
SEVERAL HUNDRED CHILDREN UNABLE TO GET ACCOMMODATION
383 Increase Over Enrollment of Last Year—12 Class Rooms in Use at New School—Private Schools Well Attended.
On Thursday of last week, the public schools of the city were opened with the usual large attendance.
As has been the case in former years, the day. of issuing admission cards, Sept. 30th, was the occasion for a great rush of parents to get their children in school.
Although the opening of the new Cuyler Street school gave additional accommodation over that of last year, yet this by no means afforded anything like adequate room for the great number of children who clamored for admission into the schools. The attendance at the close of school yesterday surpassed that a corresponding time last year by exactly 383 pupils made possible by the operation of 12 classes at the new school where only six classes were taught there last year.
At the three older schools, the enrollment surpassed that of former years. This increase is caused by the possibility of getting more smaller children in the grades, the two last grades, seventh and eighth, all being transferred to the new school The new school which is two stories and has twenty class rooms, is nicely equipped and has all single desks, a feature which only a few grades in the other schools have. The sewing room, not yet fully equipped, will accommodate about 25 pupils, the manual training department taking care of 35, and 24 pupils being accommodated at one time in the
creatures, would, it appears to me, only be questioned by those who cannot reason; yet there are many people in this world who were born and raised under christian influence, that dare to do it. Their theory is, that things move on by a fortuitous censure of circumstances, with no definite or centralized power, but that men are under a watchful protecting providence from their cradles to their graves, is too evident for discussion at this day; were it not so, what a doleful state of existence would life be. Think for a moment, my friends, of being in world of so much adversity, misfortune and crime as this and no arm to leap upon but the phantom of blind chance. Let us think of the injustice we are too frequently subjected to the presecution we have to encounter, and of all the disappointments, and life this life is her to; and yet no friend, no watchful eye, no loving heart caring for us, but the cold bleak heart of sinful man, but think heaven it is otherwise. Hugar's God watches over her in the wilderness, with her eyes turned toward heaven and her heart overflowing with joy, she exclaimed—"Thou God seeth me." It is the same God that saw Moses at the foot of Hoplah, the Israelites in Egypt, Daniel on the Lion's den, Paul and Silas in prison. Luther in his tattlers and all who have been delivered from their sorrow and despairation. Yes. His sleepies eyes scan from the cell archways to the sparrow down to the creeping insect. He saw the world of mankind greening beneath the tyrant tread of Satan and his hellish crew, and gave Jesus Christ His only son to ransom us from his power and through his blood to make us the sons of God.
2d God is acquainted with all our actions and motives. Men see but a small part of what we do, and hear but a small part of what we say. But God looks into the deep secrets of the heart and measures the magnitude of our crime by the motives that prompt them. Well says the Psalmists, "Thou hast set our iniquities before Thee, our secret sins in the light of Thy countenance." One of the prophets exclaims, "For the Lord is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed." He sees conduct from our beginning to our end; He numbers the hairs of our heads.
What solemn awe these declarations should produce! How careful should we live! And yet how careless do we live. What a host of people throughout of the city are frittering away their precious moments, this very morning, who ought to be at the church of God.
Our Anniversary Edition Well Received
The thirtieth anniversary edition of the Tribune which was published last Saturday was well received both in this city and out of town. It was the town talk here all last Saturday and found ready sale in all of the chuches on last Sunday. Congratulatory letters from many out-of-town Tribune readers have been received by us, many of which we shall publish in next week's issue of the Tribune. We wish to thank the public for their liberal acceptance of this special anniversary endeavor of ours. We regret exceedingly that we were forced to omit several interesting articles and cuts last week, many of the latter we present in this issue of the Tribune.
cooking department. The building is steam heated throughout and the class rooms are all well heated. The rooms are finished in green mission and the halls and stirway are wide. Inthe basement is the students' toilets, shower baths and boiler room. The lower grades are conducted on the lower floor, in which is also the principal's office, while the upper grades are on the second story. The manual training department is conducted in the wooden structure to the north of the new building.
The attendance at the private schools is very gratifying and will be published in next Saturday's issue of the Tribune. The enrollment in public schools is as follows:
SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 10TH, 1914
Col. John H. Deveaux, First Editor, of The Savannah Tribune
If there is one evil that is more detestable than another, certainly it is the crime of wilfully wasting the Sabbath day. I look upon a man or woman who neglects the church, who spends their Sabbaths sleeping, babbling and lounging around, but an inch above a brute. I care not how rich a man may be, how well educated, literally, he is, nevertheless, wanting in thorough civilization, the most that can be said for him is that he is a semi-barbarian. I never neglected to go to church once every Sabbath, when I used to curse and swear This very moment I venture to say there are ten thousand people in Savannah at no church at all, and there is not a colored church in this city half filled. But God sees them—death is coming—hell is moving—and in a very short time the reward of their hands will be given them Oh, my friends, think and tremble hear it and quake.
3d. There is no fact more calculated to produce a reformation in human life and action, than a recognition of the truth, that God sees and takes cognizance of our behavior; that he hears our words, watches us on the highway, sees us in the family circle, inspects us when buying and selling all notes, frauds, all falsehoods, all evasions, variations, and everything that is unhiv. And, that on the other hand, He sees and fully comprehends the strength of our faith, patience serendilens, religious zeal and all that builds up Christian character.
4th. People are too much disposed to look upon God as being far off, in the mighty distance, and not as ever present, in his immediate power. What a mis-take they make. It is just to the contrary. Of all beings he is the nearest; nearer than your mother, nearer than your wife, nearer than your husband; yes, nearer than the shoes on your feet and the hat upon your head. Everywhere you are God is there, there in power, there in knowledge, there in loving mercy, and there in His wrath to take vengeance upon the ungodly. "Thou God seeth me," meindividually, not my nation, not my state, my city, my neighborhood, my family circle, but me as a personal entity. Take this text home with you, Study and digest it, and do not forget it, and you who disregard the law of morality, weigh these words, and remember that this God who sees you will soon judge us at his bar, that He will be judge, jury and witness combined. Oh, that heaven may sanctify these remarks to our eternal salvation is my prayer.
Colored Drug Store Holds Opening To-day
The new store of the Savannah Pharmacy, West Broad and Maple lane, will have its formal opening to-day, Saturday, and tomorrow. Souviners will be given to the ladies who attend the opening. The new store is a model in every respect, embracing the latest ideas in stores of this sort. It is, as mentioned above, on the corner and admits of excellnet light, has a tiled flooring, mental ceiling, and walls of a beautiful cream tint. The show cases are of the close

Salutatory.
A newspaper being in the age of civilization an absolute necessity to the welfare and progress of any class of people. The Colored Tribune will, as its name indicates, be devoted to the advancement and elevation of the colored race. We come out in this small unpretending sheet hoping to lay the foundation upon which shall arise a journal that will be an ornament to our race, and be a medium of communication and instruction for the people.
The character of the Tribune will be the defence of the rights of the colored people and their elevation to the highest plane of citizenship; and to this all other considerations shall be secondary. We shall, when occasion requires it enter into the discussion of all matters pretaining to the general need of the community, and shall not hesitate to expose and denounce wrong and corruption, and attempt by all legal peaceful means to effect reform in any department of the body politic, and in that work we shall know no political party. The Tribune will be aware in its advocacy of justice to the colored people, and will endeavor to teach them their duty as Christians and citizens, and while demanding for them all the rights secured to them by the laws of God and of the country, will also be plain in exposing any evil which tends to debase the mind and bring reproach upon the race. We shall endeavor to break down the existing prejudice of the race and establish friendly relations between all classes of the community, and in pursuance of that policy shall labor to make our paper welcome in the hut of the poor and lowly and the mansion of the rich and noble alike
While giving religious information and all the current news of the day consonant to our, at present limited space, in a condensed form, we shall also endeavor, to make it a most valuable means of advertising for all who may desire to reach the largest consuming and labor producing class in the state.
To the colored people we say the Tribune is yours if you will have it. It is a disgrace to our race in the state that we have no organ of communication one with the other, and of speaking our sentiments to the country. The result is that we have been vill-
wall variety, affording adequate flor space for ice cream tables to the number of ten. In the center of prescription counter facing the door is a beautiful French mirror about five feet by six and a half. The store compares favorably with any drug store on West Broad street and is very inviting looking. The increase floor space will, no doubt, prove quite an inducement to the already large confectionary trade the store now enjoys. The store is owned by the Lee Chemical Company of Albany, Ga., and is managed by Dr. W. E. Moody with Dr. Grigg as assistant.
fied with impunity by our enemies and misunderstood and despised by our friends. You know how much you need an advocate. You now have an opportunity to secure one by sustaining and making the Tribune a success. We shall publish it as long as we can, but unless you give us your hearty support it must suffer the fate of many of its predecessors by coming to an untimely end. Will you do your duty? We await your action.
First Bryan Baptist Church. Through the energy and perseverance of Rev. U. L. Houston, the pastor, a commotion and grand edifice has been erected to commemorate the spot where the first colored Baptist church in Georgia stood. The building present a good appearance externally but it is not yet finished. We hope our citizens will do what they can to assist Mr. Houston in pushing the work to completion.
Death of the Vice President
The death of Henry Wilson, Vice President of the United States, which sad event occurred on the 22d ultimo at Washington, will be regretted by laboring and christian men everywhere. Mr. Wilson was chorn in 1812 and was 64 years of age at the time of his demise. He learned the shoe makers trade and had worked at that useful profession until 1840, when he entered into political life. He was United States Senator from Massachusetts for 18 years till 1873, when he was effected to the next highest position in the gift of the people, from the duties of which the fell destroyer death has just relieved him.
Mr. Wilson owed his nomination to to the position of Vice-President to the nation of John P. Quarles, a young colored Georgetown, now F. S. Corsal at Fort Mahone. The deceased was always a friend to the colored race and his unexpected death is deeply lamented by them.
The Freedman's Bank. We would inform our readers that the commissioners of the bank are now paying a dividend of $20 upon balance owned by depositors. In order to get the amount being paid, your pass book must be forwarded to the commissioners of the Freedman's Saving & Trust Company, Washington, D. C., by express or registered letter. On receipt of the pass book, the commissioners enter the amount of the dividend declared, and on return the book with the check enclosed to the sender. The commissioners say in their circular that other dividends are sure to follow, and warn the people against disposing of their books at a sacrifice.
Colored men pay your poll Tax that your children may be educated, and you allowed to vote next year. You have but a few days left in which to perform that duty.

Alanta University, Atlanta, Ga., begins its forty-sixth school year with an unexpectedly large enrollment of students. The numbers already registered in the boarding department give promise of the largest school family in recent years. Apparently, the European war and the resulting business depression with the low price of cotton have not seriously affected the student body. To the friends of education everywhere, and particularly to those interested in Negro education in the South, this undaunted spirit of the Negro youth should afford cause for rejoicing and tend to strengthen their faith in the ultimate uplifting through them, of the race as a whole.
The fire in North Hall, the girls' dormitory, last February has necessitated thir building of one entire wing of that building. This provides greatly improved laundry and kitchen facilities, as well as several new dormitory rooms, in all of which electric lights have been installed. The University printing office has been equipped during the summer with a bindery for bind-library books and to aid in issu-lidrary books and to aid in issuing the various Atlanta University publications. This enables the students, who so desire, to learn the art of book binding in addition to that of printing.
The increased numbers in the Oglethorpe Practice School have made necessary an additional school room, and a large, light basement room has been furnished for this purpose.

General News and Comments
The colored people of Georgia own over $6,000,000 in real estate.
The U. S. Congress meets next Monday, 5th, inst. The Senate Is Republican and the House is Democratic. As they have long since agreed to disagree, legislation will be slow and tedious. John L. Conley has been appointed by the president as collector of Internal Revenue for the Fourth Georgia District, in the place of Jack Brown but recently appointed. Mr. Conley's father is postmaster at Atlanta. Next The News says the Negroes of Brooks county are very dissatisfied, and are emigrating rapidly. That's no surprise when the white men of that county are determined to hang Nic Thompson for killing Capt. James Hunter while committing a felony upon the person of the former.
The physical condition of Hon. A. H. Stephens will not permit him to be present at the coming session of Congress. He has sent for Senator Gordon and they have been in consultation on matters of great importance at Crawfordville. So Mr. Stephens will be absent from the house, but his policy and plans will find expression in the Senate. We shall look for developments.
T. G. Campbell, Sr.—The trial of Mr. Campbell which was to have taken place last Wednesday at Darlen will not come off as he has sworn that he cannot obtain justice in the State Court, and, consequently, the matter goes to the U. S. Court for argument. Geed H. Thomas, Esq. of Atlanta is Counsel for Mr. Campbell. The case is a very important one. The points to be made in the case in the U. S. Court, are of vital importance to the welfare of our people.

LOCAL OFFICE UNION MUTUAL LEADS
SUPT. LINDSAY'S FORCE MAKES EXCELLENT RECORD.
Debit of Office Increased Nearly 500 Per Cent over 1909—Office Force Has won Several Competitive Contests.
During the week news of a particularly gratifying nature has reached the local office of the Union Mutual Association from headquarters in Atlanta, which brought with it new honors achieved by the twenty-two persons representing the company here.
The local force has always stood high in the competitive contests of the company, in fact, it has been returned winner in sever al of them, the victory of September of last year when it led the company's 57 offices in the state being still well remembered. The recent report of the state examiners of the business of the various offices of the company, made public this week, shows that the Savannah district leads the state by a good margin.
For the three months, May, June and July, the local district has paid a premium income of $6,22.55 with sick and death.benefits, amounting to $1,716.63 which gives the office a per cent of 27.50 on its premium receipts. For the month of August, the per cent of sick claims and death benefits amounted to 39.19, which places the local district above all others in the state, Atlanta, the home office, included.
The increase in the business of the local office of the company since it was taken over by Mr. J. C. Lindsay in 1909 has been very marked. At that time there were four agents here with a debit of $127.10. Today the local

Thursday morning of last week at 9 o'clock the Beaufort district of the A. M. E. church annual conference opened its session at St. Stephen's A. M. E. church of which Rev. E. W. Graham is pastor. Rev. R. W. Mance, presiding elder of the district, declared the convention opened for business. Rev. M. B. McPherson of Sheldon. S. C., was elected secretary, after which delegates answered to the roll call, except the Revs. R. C. Williams and W. G. Gibbs. The visitors that attended the convention were the Rev. P. J. Chavis, presiding elder of the Charleston district and also Prof. Garrett, one of the educators of South Carolina. They both addressed the conference. On Thursday night the Rev. W. G. Mance, pastor of Beaufort Station, preached the annual sermon which was excellent. Mr. Frank Collins and Miss Julia Green were quietly married on that night at the parsonage, Rev. E. W. Graham performing the ceremony. Friday night in spite of the inclement weather, Rev. L. W. Jennings, pastor of the Camp Ground Circuit, delivered the missionary sermon to a large congregation. Mrs. M. J. Alston of Charleston, S. C., president of the W. and H. T. Society, also addressed the ladies in the interest of her work. On Saturday at 12:30 p.m. the convention closed its material work. Saturday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock, the pastor and officers assembled in their third quarterly conference of the Hardeville charge. Sunday was a great day; preaching Sunday by the Reys. R. H. Dunbar, M. B. McPherson, P. C. Lee and L. W. Jennings. The services were largely attended. The convention was a success both spiritually and financially and the people of Hardeville royally entertained the delegates of the convention. Mrs. P. R. Riley of Bluffton, S. C., who is soliciting aid for the graded school of Bluffton. Prof. M. E Glover of Ridgeland, S. C., were also present. Mrs. Mary Herring of this town was seriously hurt last week by filling off a horse. She is improving Monday James lost his house and a bale and a half of seed cotton on last Tuesday by fire. We extend to him our deepest sympathy. Mrs. J. A. Randall is still on the sick list. Mrs. S. H. Hodges who has been ill for some time is improving. Rev. R. J. Minis of Fairfax, S. C. is here with the Rev. Graham, assisting him in a revival meeting at Bellinger. Mrs. Graham was at Ridgeland last week visiting relatives. On last Saturday afternoon there was a little disturbance between a white and colored citizen of the town, but no one was seriously hurt. The camp meeting that was at Bellinger, S. C. last week at St. Paul A. M. E. church, of which Rev. Graham is pastor, was well attended. Sunday was a high

day with the Christians. Rev. Mims of the C. M. E. church of Fairfax, who was conducting the meeting preached at 11:30 a. m. to a large crowd. Rev. Mims is a young evangelist. At 2 p. m. the pastor preached the funeral sermon of Sister Judy Green. We observed the peace service last Sunday for we deeply sympathize with those suffering in the warring, struggling countries. All of the cotton made by the farmers, that which they have picked and ginned, is laid up in the warehouses and some at home. On account of low prices and eight or nine days of successive rain, things don't look very rosy for the farmers throughout the state. Mrs. Mashie Crum of Beaufort, S. C. was here en route to Garnett, S. C. and spent the night with the Rev. and Mrs. Graham and left next morning. Rev R. H. Dunbar also spent the night here and left Sunday morning for Greenpond, S. C.

The word "intended" is too often used to imply "betrothed." It may have come to that misuse as an abbreviation of "intended bride" or "intended bridegroom."

Kaiser's Forces Wavered Before Rush of Allies.
The western wing of the German line has been thrust back about 7 miles during the continuous fighting day and night.
Both armies, despite almost superhuman fatigues, show the utmost determination not to yield an inch of ground without a terrible struggle, but the fresher troops at the disposal of the allied commanders have gradually forced the Germans to recede.
The Turcos are adding daily to their record of daring achievements. In a costly bayonet encounter they broke through the German lines without firing more than a few shots and recaptured and brought back four field guns the French troops had abandoned the previous day. They seemed to disdain the murderous rifle and machine gun fire poured into them, refusing to listen to the officers who tried to keep them under cover. Cold steel again played a considerable part in the battle of the enormous hosts fighting along the Aisne, the Oise and Woevle. The most remarkable point about the encounters is that the troops scarcely 'see each other before they actually come hand to hand.
HORRORS OF BATTLE.
Wounded Soldiers Left on Field—
Women Bury Dead.
On account of the unceasing fire
in the battlefield along the Alsne,
many wounded are lying where they
fell. The Red Cross ambulances
could not venture out to pick them
up because of the heavy fire. Many
wounded must have died upon the
field for lack of medical attention
in the past week.
It is terrible to imagine what these wounded soldiers must have suffered, lying upon the wet, soggy ground, with the cold wind and rain sweeping over them while the pain of a shattered leg, or arm, or rip, racked and tortured frames. Day and night bursting shells fell around these wounded, covering their feverish bodies with showers of mud. In the wake of the battle the task of clearing up the carnage goes on slowly. Around Senlis women are helping the men bury corpses. The streets of Senlis are full of mounds, each elevation marking the grave of a French, British or German soldier. They are unnamed, and in the official reports of the governments they go down as "missing."
Similar carnage has marked the fierce fighting around Caronne, where both sides showed the fury of flends in their attacks.
VALLEY OF DEATH.
Loss of Life Reported as Colossal in France.
In the valley of the Meuse and in the Vosges the fighting is less severe, but is still going on.
The destruction along the valley of the Aisne is appalling. Wounded soldiers, returned officers and prisoners from the front describe the loss of life as colossal. The stretch of lowland between the hills flanking the Aisne is described as a valley of depth and desolation.
Day and night the bombardment goes on, until one wonders in amazement how the Germans are able to bring from their distant base of supplies sufficient ammunition necessary to keep their batteries in action all the time.
Another Prince Wounded.
A message received from Berlin says Prince August William, the fourth son of Emperor William, was shot in the left arm during the battle of the Marne. Emperor William has bestowed the iron cross of the first class on him.
All Northern France Devastated.
No matter how the great battle now raging along the French frontier goes all of northeastern France from Paris to the Belgian and German borders will have been ravaged, devastated and scourged. It is as though the hand of God, sweeping in divine wrath, had withered and wasted the land for the sins of its people.
NOT TIME FOR PEACE.
Paris Papers on Cessation of 'Hostilities.
According to the semi-official press the opportune moment for peace negotiations is not in sight. The Paris Journal Des Debates says:
"Treaties, written prohibitions and restrictions will not suffice. All these the imperial chancellor, Dr. Von Bethmann-Hollweg, has declared to be merely 'scraps of paper."
"What are needed are material measures, immediately executed, that will strike all of Germany and constitute guarantees for the future. This is the destruction of German territory, organizations and instruments of war."
The Temps says:
"No delusive peace. It is necessary to pursue a single idea—the end of the militarist German empire."
Ducal House Mourns.
The ducal house of Saze Meiningen has been solemly stricken by war. Prince Frederick, the grand duke's brother, and his son Prince Ernest have both been killed. The Princess Frederick is dying from the shock of losing her husband and son, as well as her cousin and a nephew. The house of Lippe has also lost three princes.

'A senator was praising the humor of a certain congressman.
"His humor, however," he concluded, "is rather grim. I told him the other day about a mutual acquaintance who had died, 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."

Three Progressive Business Men of Savannah Dan'l Simmons
Among the Masons.
The first half of the Orphan Home assessment should be forwarded to Mr. Spencer. The second half is due in December. Pay up promptly.
Election time is in December. Prepare now to put in office only the best brothers who have Masonry at heart and are void of selfishness.
We paid a death claim last mouth. The brother was a member of one of our best lodges in south west Georgia. The following explains itself and should be an incentive to the brothers to act well their part:
"And let me say, right here, that I am beginning to realize the benefits derived from these orders. Bro.——was helped a deal by the order while living. And just yesterday it was revealed that he had his home under mortgage and but for this check coming his mother might have been put out of doors. The paper was past due and the same placed in the hands of an attorney for collection. This amount was about $175.00 and the check saved her. You do not know how much I rejoiced for her, for she is an old lady, weak, ignorant but honest, and has a short while to live. She expresses deep gratitude to the Masons and I am taking this plan to pass her message on to you."
"Please accept thanks from the Subordinate Lodge for your prompt actions in this matter."
Whatever obscurity, darkness; trial, suffering falls upon your your defeats, losses, injuries; yououtward state, employment, relations; what seems hard, unaccountable, sever, or, as nature might say, vexatious—all these you will see as parts or constitutive elements in God's beautiful and good plan for you, and as
such are to be accepted with a smile. Trust God; have an implicit faith in God; and these very things will impart the highest zest to life.—Horace Bushnell.
The division of Masonry into rites and orders is very much like the streams which flow from the fountain head. In one stream flows the morality of Masonry, in another the philosophy, hoary with age. These streams glide along peacefully side by side, each bearing upon its crest that which should be neither rivalry nor antagonism for the mission of all is the same.—D. D. Darrah.
How few Masons realize the awful solemnity and importance of this voluntary obligation. You with your hands on the Holy Bible call God to witness that you will observe this obligation? Have you kept that obligation? If not, why not? These obligations are what has made Masonry a worldwide name above all names. Are you sacredly observing this obligation?
Upon it being sacredly kept depends the future of Masonry. No other order or creed demands this unselfish obligation to an admission in its folds.
Unless you rigidly keep this obligation you bring our grand and noble order down to the common level—disgracing it and yourself. Sacredly keep it and we have the grandest and noblest order God ever gave to man, for the upbuilding of the world to God's plan—Selected.
"A good name is better than great riches." God will not compensate you for doing wrong. Don't try it. Millions of the human race have tried and failed.
Be true to yourself and your brother, thereby making others happier, and gaining happiness for yourself on earth, with bright prospects in the hereafter.
If it wasn't for the so-called "wall-flowers," the attendance at our meetings would be small. We say, God bless the brother who attends meetings regularly for no other purpose than to take a "back seat," so-called. There is something in the lessons taught in conferring the degrees other than the dotting of "i's" and the crossing of "t's" and they thoroughly understand that "such is the nature of our constitution that some must, of necessity, rule and teach, so others must learn to submit and obey." They come for the good they see in Masonry and therefore, are valuable members. Blessed is the body that has many of them, we say.—Missouri Freemason.
Let us always move in harmony with nature's immutable laws, free from envy, hatred, contention, unrest and discord, ever mindful of our brother's welfare, filling his life with the joy that flows from perfect love, that our own souls may return from temporary exile, pure and undefiled, to the bosom of our God.—Ex.

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 grab 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 Tonics.
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.

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.

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.

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, Ariz. 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 soon 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 Rural New Yorker, tells of having much success in the catching of sparrows with the aid of one of the small pocket electric 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 sirup 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 phe 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 35,000 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 died 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.

FLEETING TIME
Make the most of the time allotted to you. Mark how fleeting and paltry is the estate of man—yesterday in embryo, tomorrow a mummy or ashes. So, for the hair's breadth of time assigned to thee, live rationally and part with life cheerfully, as drops the ripe olive, extolling the season that bore it and the tree that matured it.—Marcus Aurelius.

A Culinary Tragedy.
"What's the matter, dear?" asked Mr. Justwed as he came into the house and found his wife crying as if her heart would break.
"I am so discouraged," she sobbed.
"What has bothered my little wife?"
"I worked all the afternoon making custards, because I knew you were so fond of them, and—and"—Here she began weeping hysterically again.
"And what, darling?"
"And they turned out to be sponge cakes."
