Long| — “s — EEN TS Se ee eee aaa grocs, which is to be distributed among.the poor and indigent Ne- grocs of the city, was increased considerably during the week and now is within easy reach of the three hundred dollar mark: To be exact $298.65 was reported up to noon yesterday and it is confidently expected by the so- Jicitors that by Monday at least fifty dollars more will have been added to the total subscription fund. There has been a_ total number of 266 petsons or organi- zations to subscribe to the fund. Many of those who have already given are persons of meager means, but the appeal of the lea- gue so impressed them that they felt it necessary to make the sacrifice and do whatsoever they could to assist their more unfort- unate fellowbeings. The office of the president of the league has been deluged by requests for aid from those in need, and these together with the many worthy cases’ found by the ladies as they searched their re- spective districts for the deserv- ing poor present 2 situation which the league with its limited means will find difficult to mect. In comparison to last year, there were found many more cases of dire need by the ladies this year. This has probably been caused by the general hard times which are to bg found throughout the city, many of the elderly persons who up to this year, were able to sup- port themselves by doing odd jobs being unable to find employment ofvany Kind. At a meeting Thursday of the committee which has in charge the raising and distribution of the Christmas fund, it was decided to change the day of distribution from Christmas eve to the day before, Wednesday. This was thought best because many of the ladies who assist ia the work find it very inconvenient to be away from home the day before Christmas, and then, too, the distribution in certain districts was found last year to take more time than had ben expected and this caused several of the ladies to work way into the night or a part of the following morning. The purchasing committee will turn over the provisions to the ladies on Monday afternoon and the baskets will all be packed by them and made ready for distri- bution Wednesday. Mrs. L. A. Newton, one of the ladies of the committee, has proferred the use of her store on the southwest corner of West Broad and Wald- burg lane, as a storehouse for the goods and the wagons will all be loaded there 9 o'clock “Wednesday morning. Many white friends have con- tributed substantial sums to the fund and showed much interest in Vibe work of the league, as the ‘ollowing letters attest: “The enclosed cheek I am sending you for your Xmas fund for the child. ren. I hope it will help you in your efforts to muke the little ones happy- “T am always interested in your League's work, and only wish I were Able to help you matérially.” “Urban League, I received ySur circular and while the demands among the poor and varl: ous organizations of my own people, preclude the possibility of my mukin; axeash donation to the cause. My family and myself will take pleasure ta adopting a suggestion offered as Ypot note to your circular letter. “Tf your committee will call at mj residence, Mrs,——and the childrer will give you what old toys they car spare.” I have read with great Interest the circular and prospectus sent me con ceifving the Urban League, and I an enclosing to you $25.00 to be used in it: work at your discretion. “Up to the present time the peopl of your race have relied entirelf’ to: much upon the whites to assist them fa every thing they wanted to do The Tribune as a Christmas Present. If you want to make your ab- sent friends happy, make them a present of a year’s subscription to The Savannah Tribune. It would be a usefttl present for even those at home. Make them happy for $1.25, and they will remember you the entire year. tbe reason 4 am sending you ts money is because these circulars show that the Urban Teague is working along this Ine. People are ready fo help those who help themselves, and it seems to me that the establishment of banks, real estate compantes and vari- ous business organizations among the Negroes is a proof that some of them realize this and are working along these lines, and if in addition to this they are seeking to help each other in charitable ways, I am sure the rexults will be good.” The following subscriptions were reccived by the Icague up to noon yesterday: The Savannah Tribune........--$10.00 Wage Earners Bank......+.-+--$10.00 Scott Brothers......-.+++-+-+---$5.00 Rev. and Mrs. R.

The address of Dr. Johnson was replete with many helpful suggestions. On tomor- row, Dr. R. H. Singleton, the pop- ular pastor of St. Philip A.M, E. Church, will'address, the meeting. The program committee an- nounces the selection of Dr. Bru- ner. health officer, as the speaker for the following Sunday, Dec. 27th, at which time an audience of both male and female is ex; pected. A special invitation is extended to all the male’ inhabi- tants of the city to be out on to- morrow to hear Dr. Singleton. The meeting begins promptly fat 5 p.m. at St. Paul C. M. £.

The ‘shooting of fireworks will be confined to certain pre- scribed limits, no person being allowed to shoot them north of Liberty street or on Bull street north of Forsyth park. Out- side of this restriction the people will be allowed to shoot fireworks two days before Christmas and continue until the day after New ‘Year's. ___ The-sale of torpedo sticks, giant ‘fire crackers and dynamite caps is forbidden. .The department of safety calls attention to the dan- ger arising from the use of toy pistols and asks parents to use their power in keeping their children from them.

By a friend. + Inca little three room cottage neat and clean within, on one of the lines of Savannah, one may find today a young man of thirty; dying with tuberculosis, Long since have his wife and two ba- bies gone to the home of her par- ents in the country for maintain- ance; and all income from his la- bor ceased. He is dependent for succor upon a faithful, loving jmoier: who earns a mere daily pittance, and the benefits of two health societies, one of which nv longer pays him any claims, and the other’ allows half previous payment. The visiting nurse of Margaret Bottome Circle of King’s Daugh- iters was notified of this unfortu- Inate man’s condition and she call- fed at his home, gave him two out ing flannel shirts, ordered a quart of fresh milk to be supplied to jhim every day, advised him in re- .gard to the care of his person provision, ventilation; the ‘ad- mission ¢f sunlight the Aisposal fof sovtem amd esplamed wu the ,mother hdw to nurse ner bey and avoid contracting his iliress, { Whaf} a humane Samaritan service! : | , A young, refined orphan widow, age twenty-eight, came td Sa- ‘vannah not long ago to earn an | independent livelihoood as a dress maker. She was_ industrious, ambitious and competent. For a {time she succéeded and her out- look was hopeful. But, alas, her duties were more arduous than hér inherited frail body could withstand, and poor lass, she began to cough; fever devel- joped; loss of weight set in; her strength lessened—she was a | victim of grim tuberculosis. Un: | like many, who are loath to re- | alize their true state in similar | circumstances, she concluded that | since her cough failed to yield to | medicine, and-her general health ) did mot improve, she had con- ), Sumption. | Somewhere she had either read or heard that-‘milk, eggs and ) other wholesome foad were es- ‘sential agénts in promoting re- ) covery to those suffering with her ) complaint. | How could she'buy milk at ten , cents-a' quart, pay her room rent, ; and meet other necessary obli- ) gations? Such was of the ques- , tion, she could not. | One night while reading a pa- , per, she saw that the same circle ; alluded to above, would furnish , fresh milk daily to indigent per- ; Sons of any race, suffering with » tuberculosis. What a boon to » her! A letter to the Circle from , her resulted in a speedy visit from ; the visiting nurse and the delivery , of a quart of fresh cow’s milk dai- . ly afterwards... | Thus it would, appear, from ; these two isolated~cases, and , there are many other such ones, »,that Margaret Bottome Circle, is , ministering indiscriminately toval - the people of Savannah; and » every one of its citizens, who can ), should purchase as many as pos- ,'sible of the Red Cross Seals : which said Circle is selling at a | penny a piece, and thereby aid ) personally this splendid charity. )|.

How- ever, nature has not endowed all women alike in this respect as it often becomes necessary far some of them to supplement their limited supply with additional hair. Even at the,best this is un- fortunate, as those who wear false are at a disadvantage in the battle of life. Not only does it detract from personal appear- ance—but it renders the wearer liabie to disease from infected hair. Many women save their comb- ings and have them made into switches and puffs. This itself seem harmless; however, it_is fraught with great danger. * She who docs this saves a mass of soited, germ laden, decayed mat- ter. The fact that the hair falls out proves that it is dead hair, dead at the roots. This hair is oftea kept for months in a little bag er box before it is cleaned and made into something to wear on the head.. But nothing can purify it sufficiently to ad- mit of its being worn on the head of a healthy individual. “Fo one would think of putting a few decayed apples into a barrel of good ones and expect them to remain there without infecting the whole barrel. And yet thous- ands of women save their comb- ‘ings and without cleaning them will haye them iade into switches and wear them contin- ually to the detriment not only of their hair but their whole sys- tem. Furthermore when the system becomes deranged some women become pcevish, cross, | jealous, and hard to please. In) fact most women who are sick for any length of time get that way. Some are that way when they are well. . The little innocent “rats” that women place under their pompa- dours to raise them ‘to the de- sired height are often soiled and of the coarse a quality that they rub the scalp continually, loosen- ing the hair from the head and heating the scalp so that it be- comes oily and irritated to a great degree. Those who feel that they must wear other hair than their own should never wear cheap false hair. It oftei hap- pens that those who buy a bunch of curls or puffs for a dollar are buying Chinese hair or hair cut from dead people who were di- sensed. This hair is bleached or dyed with the poorest kind of dyes. This hair cannot be fit to wear on healthy heads. Lillian Russell says: “The wo- man is fortunate who has suffi- cient hair to decorate her head without resorting to false hair. But to those who need a little additional hair to improve their appearance, 1 would advise to be more than careful of the quality they use.” The best is always the cheapest in the end. One should hesitate before picking up a cheap bunch of curls or “rat” to puff out the pompadour. One should he positively sure that the hair she puts on her head is per- fectly clean. Throw away all combings from your head as you: would throw away a dead flower. Go to the best places, for the best things. Work with your own hair until you can do without false hair. v While it is true that some wo- men have to wear false hair, there are a. much larger number who wear it needlessly and would be much better off without it. By care most women could fix up their own hair becomingly, even though not according to the lat- est style. When style interferes with health, “cut out” the style. bigeye" pace RE NGO ORIEL. SY SUNDAY SCHOOL, Léson Xil-Fourth Quarter, For Dec. 20, 1914. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of ths Lesson, Luke xxiv, 50-53; Acts i, 1-11—Memory Verses, 10, 11. Golden Text, Acts I, 3—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns, We have the.option this time of the regular lesson” on the. ascension, or what {s called » Christmas lesson on the reign of peace, from Isa. xi, 1-10. but as the ascension lecson Includes His return to sct up His kingdom we will take It and look at both. The time when Isa. xi shall be literally fulfilled cannot come during this age of a re- Jected Messidh and a consequently scattered Israel, but as truly as He at His frst coming Uterally fulfilled all that is written In Isa. lit and else- where concerning His sufferings, so shall He when He shall come again as Uterally fultill all that Is written ev- erywhere concerning His kingdom and glory. Animals that now devour each other shall live in peace togetter, na- tlons, shall learn war no more, for He shall have smitten them and broken them in pieces. and the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea, for the rod out of the stem of Jesse, who Is also the root of Jesse; the syn of David, who is also David's Lord, shall sit on David's throne and reign over the house of Jacob, who will then be a-na- tion all righteous, accorjing to Gabriel and all the prophets, the neglect of whom made the two with whom He walked to Emmaus to be foolish men Q@uke xxiv, 25; {, 31, 32; Jer. i, 17; Isa. Ix, 6, 7; bx. 21), _. He who rose from the dead was In- “deed the Son of David, the long prom- ised king to rule over Israel, which He shall surely do at His return, and not only Israel, but all nations (Mic. Iv, 3: vy, 2; Ps ixxil, 11; Matt. 1, 1; Rev. xxii, 16; I Tim. if, 8; Rev. 1, 5; Ps, Ixxxvi. 9). How wonderful the king and the kingdom! Thy kingdom come! Christ- mas is almost without sfgnificance un- less It points ‘us on to the coming again of Him who was born*in Bethlehem, not in the winter season, but probably in the springtime. Turning to the lesson in the Acts. the former treatise referred to was the gospel by Luke, wherein he, as well as Matthew and Mark in their gospels. set forth the things that Jesus bezan to do and teach and which the Holy Spirit through redeemed people has ever since been doing and teaching and will till the church {3 completed. Notice that doing always goes before teaching. for we cannot teach others. until we have done the things our- selves. He continued to do and teach until the day in which He was taken up. May we by the same Spirit be faithful witnesses until taken out of the body or taken up in the body to be ever with Him (I Thess. ir, 16-18; Phil. 1, 21, 23). We must not confuse these two, but either will be glorious. Notice how He did all by the Holy Spirit. And remember that from His conception to His resurrection all was by the Holy Spirit, the same one con- cerning whom He said, “Ye shall re ceive the power of the Holy Ghost coming upon you, and ye shall be wit- nesses unto me” (verse 8, margin). As Te showed Uimself alive in His res- urrection body He expects us, in the power of His resurrection by the Holy Spirit, to manifest Him in our mortal bodies that others may see Him and not us. He will manifest Himself in us if we are fully yielded. Since He is more willing to give the fullness of the Spirit than parents are to give good gifts unto their children, what can binder us from being filled but our own un- willingness? Their question, “Lord, wilt thon at this time restore ugain the Ixing- dom to Israel?" was in no sense a fool- ish question, for the prophets are full of such a restoration, and the heaven has received Him only until the times of restitution of all things which God, hath spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets since the world began (Acts iii, 21). Our Lord did not re- prove them for asking the question. nor did He say that they were carnal In looking for such a kindom or that they misunderstood the nature of the” kingdom. He simply said to them, and He says to us, that we are not to know the time, and elsewhere He said that it will be in such an hour as we think not. But His great desire for us 1s that we shall be, In the power of His Spirit, His faithful witnesses to His death and resurrection and ‘present ministry and coming again. He led them out as far as to Beth- any, and while He blessed them with uplifted hands He was parted from them, carried up into heaven and sat on the right hand of God (verse 9; Luke xxiv. 50, 51; Mark xvi, 19), As they looked steadfastly toward heaven FO ae a eg eM ce eo SAVED BY A TAIL SO ee ee ee ee eee ee Paris In 1848 * On Feb. 24, 1848, when Paris was disturbed by the revolutionary mob, 8 Captain Prebole was sent by the government with ordess to be de- Uvered to the leaders of the troops that were defending the threatened points in various parts of the city. It was a dangerous undertaking. for the bitterness of the people against the government was intense. Before starting out Captain Prebols was ‘warned to take the greatest care if be valued his life, but he took the warnings lightly and sald: “If you fel- lows knew my black borse as well as I know him you wouldn't worry abont me. That horse bas carried me through thick and thin.” ‘The black horse of which the gallant captain was so, proud was indeed 2 Deautifal animal. But there was some thing very extraordinary about bis tail. It was long and busby, but it never moved or twitched. except with the movement of the animat's body. ‘When Prebols arrived in the disturb- ed section of the city he fearlessly de- livered his message. He met with no resistance from the crowds in the streets until he reached the Place Ven- dome. Here a great crowd of revolu- Honists had gathered. One selzed tho bridle and cried in a fierce voice: “Hold! What message are you carry- $ng?” ‘Tbe captain refused to answer. “Put = bullet through him and get that mes- sage! bawled out the man in a com- manding voice. He was evidently a leader of the mob. At this point the captain determined that quick action alone would save bim from violence at the hands of the crowd. Quick as a fineh he wheeled his horse and dashed off. Several bul- lets few after him, but they went wlid and then suddenly ceased altogether. He looked round and saw the mob crowding round one of thelr number, who held something in his band. And then his eyes fell on the back of his horse and his heart sank iu dismay. It seems that as be whirled his horse about several men selzed hold of the animaj. But the powerful crenture threw them all except one, a lad of fourteen: who selzed the horse's tail Thar tail was the object of interest that had caused the shooting to stop, for it bad come off. There stood the boy, in the middle of the road. with his feet spread apart and an expression of grim determination on bis face as he tightly clutched the fleeing crea- ture’s tail The mob saw the humor of the situation and burst into a roar of laughter. ‘The explanation came out later. It seems that Captain Prebols’ horse, while perfect in every other particular, did not have a very good tall and so his master had an artificial one made for him. No doubt that artificial tail, and that alone, saved Captain Prebols’ ife. Brutal Black George. No rougher customer ever occupled a throne than Servia's first ruler, Black George.

When his mother tried to cheat him over a beehive he bonneted her with it and stalked off, regardless of ber shrieks of pain, Black George was ad- mirable as an administrator, scrupu- lously just in all bis dealings—oatside of the family circle—and 2s brave and disinterested a patriot, as ever lived.

Lesson Xt — Fourth Quarter, e For Dec. 27, 1914. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES, Text of the Lesson, Il Cor. v, 14-21, Quarterly Review—Golden Text, Gal. vi, 14—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. Lesson 1. — Christ Anointed For Burial, Mark xiv, 1-11, Golden Text, Mark xiv, 8, “She hath done what she could.” ‘This is not the anointing of ‘Luke vii by an unnamed woman, but that by Mary of Bethany shortly be- fore the Passover, It was the heart- felt devotion of a humbje. believing heart, and He accepted it'und approv- ed of it and reproved thuse who found fault. Lrsson IL—The Last Supper, Mark xiv, 12-25. Golden Text, I Cor. xf, 26, “As often as ye eat this bread and drink this cup ye do show the Lord's death till He come." Note the Pass- over greatly desired and its future ful- fillment in the kingdom. The thought of that glory should keep us very hum- ble now and deliver us from all strife and ambition as we think of what it cost Him to obtaiu it for us. The bread and wine should always say to us, “Til He come."- Lesson III.—In the Garden of Geth- semane, Mark xiv, 3242, Golden Text, Matt. xxvi, 41. “Watch and pray that ye efter not into temptation.” Our ut- ter inability to appreciate either His sufferings or His glory is seen In the sleeping of these three men in the gar- den and on the Mount of Transfigura- tion. His longing for some human sympathy may be seen in His “Could- est thou not watch one hour?” Lesson IV.—Jesus and Judas. Matt. xxvi, 47-50; xxvif, 3-10. Golden Text, Matt. xxvi 24, “Woe unto that man through whom the Son of Bian is be- trayed.” The last lesson seemed to be Christ and the devil face to:face, as in the wilderness. This is Christ, and the devil is a professed ‘bellever, who dares ‘to profess friendship by a kiss, and Jesus tolerates It, The betrayer’s testimony to the innocence of Christ is very strong. Lesson V.—The Arrest and Trial of Jesus, Matt. xxvi, 57-6S. Golden Text. Isq. lil, 7, “He is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and, ay a sheep before her shearers, is dumb, so He openeth not His mouth.” ‘This lesson is an awfal fllustration of the enmity of the human heart ta God, who {s only Love. Thefr ill treatment of Him as they hound Him to death is almost unbe- Hevable. He snbmits to all without a murmur or reply. Lesson VL —Sowing and Reaping. Gal. vi, 1-10. Golden Text, Gal. vi, 7. “Whatsoever a man soweth that shall he also reup." We are seeing the meekness of Jesus as He suffered in our stead; and nothing is more becom- ing in us than low.iness and meekness and long suffering (Eph, Iv, 2). If we are crucified with Christ we must ever reckon ourselves dead unto self and sin and alive unto God. Lesson VII.—Jesus and Peter. Mark xiv, 53, 54, 66-72 Golden Text. I Cor. x, 12, “Let him that thinketh he standeth talé beed lest he fall." When a true disciple allows the devil to work in him and speak through him it {g,2 great victory for the adversary ajrd dishonor ‘to Christ, but the unfafling and unchanging love of such a Saviour, who lores His own to the end in spite of all ‘thelr failures, is an exceeding great comfort. Lesson VIII.—Jesus and Pilate, Matt. Exvil, 11-26. Golden Text, Matt. xxvii, 22, “Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do, then, with Jesus, who is called Christ?” Betrayed by one who pro- fessed to be His, denied by one who as really and truly His, condemned to death by the religious rulers, who thought that they were God's chosen ones, and now banded over for execu- tlt? by the state which testified to His Innocence. Lesson IX.—Christ Crucified, Marl: ‘xy. 2237. Golden Text, Isa. lili, 4, “Surely He hath borne our griefs and carried our sorrows. Yet we did es- teem Him stricken, smitten of God and afilicted.© Numbered with trans- gressors, put to death as the vilest criminal, Jeered and mocked as He hung upon the cross. forsaken by His Father, the agony of it all we cannot begin to imagine, but we can hold fast the words “His own self bare my sins.” a Lrssox X.—Christ Risen From the Dead, Mark xvi, 1-8; Matt. xxvili, 11-15.

The criticism has been made and perhaps not unjustly-that Masonry is lacking in practical philanthropy. It has been said that the craft, which should head the country in work of this character, has only a few scattered homes for widows, orphans and aged members, to point to along this line. Of course individual Masons, and subordinate lodges daily and yearly do a splendid work, do it quietly and do it well—in relieving the sickness and distress in their immediate vicinity. But it is a fact that more might be done in the way of organized social service. Dr. S. A. Knopf, of New York has an interesting article in the January issue of the New Age, a Masonic magazine, in which he urge the concentration of energies upon the building of an educational sanitorium as a unique and practical Masonic charity. He points out that the Woodmen, the Knights of Pythias, the Typographica Union and many other organizations have built sanitoriums to fight tuberculosis. Realizing the difficulties in the way of the Masonic fraternity following their example, and arranging for the general care of its consumptive members, since no medical examination is required, he suggests not a tuberculosis sanitarium, but an educational sanitarium. The object of this institution would be to teach the patients what they must do to get well, and how they must act so as to not reinfect themselves or infect others. Such a course could be given in from two to three month and thus five or six times as many could be treated annually, as in a regular sanitarium. It is unquestionably true that not only tuberculosis, but a host of other diseases are propagated by lack of knowledge of elementary hygiene. No organization could undertake a greater work than the teaching of how to preserve health and prevent disease. Masonry will make no mistake to bend its energies in this direction. J. D. McC. Prejudice Against Lodges The prejudice against Masonic lodges that years ago used to so measure by the Masonic press. women has materially decreased and this change in sentiment has been brought about in a great measure by the Masonis press. When a Masonic paper, a magazine comes regularly to the house of a members of the fraternity, it is read by the lady members of the household and the information they receive regarding the various Masonic bodies has a tendency to remove any false impression they may have regarding Freemasonry. The fact that Masons visit the sick, bury the dead, comfort the bereaved and assist the needy, when firmly impressed upon the minds of an intelligent woman, is enough to dispel any prejudices that she may have and make her a friend of the institution. The writer once knew a woman who was strongly opposed to her husband becoming a Mason, but after his death she met with such generous treatment from the members of her deceased husband's lodge, that when she died she left her home by will, to that organization, and it is used to this day as a refuge for Mason's widows. Her husband, for some reason, was not a subscriber to any Masonic periodical, but if he had been his wife would no doubt have been converted from the error of her ways and become a friend of Masonry long before her husband's death—Masonic Chronicle. Promptness in. opening the lodge, and a reasonably early closing, will increase lodge attendance.

The entire thirty-two pages were brim full sof news and the workmanship excellent. The Negroes of Nashville must surely have felt highly elated when they saw their accomplishments heralded to the country in such a telling way as was shown in this special edition of The Globe, and they are to be congratulated by the Ne- groes in other cities in having as their mouth piece such a wide awake and progressive newspaper The Tribune joins the host bf Ne- gro editors!throtighout the coun- try in the highe3t words of praise they must: give to the publishers of The'Globe/for. having put out ‘such an interesting, entertaining and-excellent edition. * ‘Before we'go to press again, Christmas - of nineteen ‘hundred and fourteen will be a part of his- tory. The yuletide season of happiness and good cheer will haveibeen ushered in with no lit- tle, pomp and ceremony. On every side there will be seen the little. ones With their dolls, their drums, and their toys of évery ‘description, unmistakable em- ‘bles of' the Christmas season; from every window ‘and in every home the: characteristic Christ- mas decorations symbolic of the yuletide season will be seen. “What a joyous season will be upon us! And not only joyous must it be, but momentous 2s yell, for mingled with our joy, ‘there should be a feeling of thanksgiving within us to Him who has so bountifully blessed us during the past twelve months. And why? As we pass in rapid séyiew before us the cycle of eyents of the year nineteen hun- dred and fourteen, we are ofthe opinion that:the people of Ameri- ca above all others have much to be thankful for at this time. In the first place we have been al- most free from pestilence or cala- mitous disease. Again, while nearly thé whole civilized world is and has been engaged for four months or more, in the most an- ‘nihilating war known to history, ‘our country, save for a few slight tremors felt on account of the titanic struggle now going- on,in Europe, has been and is at péace with the world so far as arms and Ymunition of war are concerned. What a-great bless- ing it is then, during these times when the martial music and the ttamp of the soldiers may be heard on two continents, to know that peace, at least from arms, “like a river, attendeth our way!” To*be true, this is a great bless- ing’ indeed. For this every ‘one among us ought to be thankful. Enjoying as we do, the position of the leading civilized nation of the , world now at peace with ‘every other nation, it is to be expected that this’ nation take the lead in-any peace proposals that may be offered tothe warring nations. That our government will wields tremendous influence in bringing about peace when the opportune time arrives for the proposal of the same, there can be no doubt. But, the question presents itself to us, will’ our government's potential influence’ for neace amone the warrinoe na ever hopes to come into its own as the real harbinger of world’s peace, then there must be the absence of disctiminatory, acts and policies as ‘Jim Crow laws, governmental segregation poli- cies and the like, for as long as these nefarious/acts and policies are in vogue, there can be no real peace among us. The,war spirit is indeed an evil; prejudice is also. The ‘present’ warring nations are possessed of the one; we are possessed of the other. As we see it, there are glass houses on both sides of the At- Jantic. Is it necessary for us to repoint here. the reminder that people in glass houses should jrever throw stones? But, des- pite our shortcomings, the good Lord has blessed us during the year.

It‘is not often that President Wilson can be accused of lack of sincerity, but what shall be sald of his remark re- lative to the Negroes of the South that “there isn't any question, it seems to me, into which more candgr needs to be put or more thorough human feeling,” and what “I know myself, a3 a South: ern man, how truly the heart of the South desires the good of the Negro and the advancement of his race on all sound and sensible Mnes; it is a matter of common understanding”? These words were taken to the Unt- versity Commission on Southern Race ‘Questions, made up of representatives of eleven Southern colleges. They might have been uttered fifty years ago by a Confederate Brigadier. They do not vary much from the sentiments ex- pressed ‘in the yeari before the war by the most extreme advocate of slav- ery. * Negroes are citizens of the United ‘States, entitled to all the rights which Mr. Wilson as President is sworn to protect. To what other section of our Population, large or small, would he refer In such terms of condescension? If it fs imaginable that any of the ele ments of our people could be subject to the Iimitagion placed upon the blacks, is it conceivable that the President would speak thus of the possible ad- ¥Yancement on “sound ‘and, sensible Mnes""? * = Mr. Wilson chanced to be born in Virginia, but he 1s not, President be- cause he Is a Southern ‘man and "The World onght not to be forced to arc- quaint ‘him of the fact—New York World.

On last Sunday afternoon a meeting was held at the Eureka Club room by representatives of various organizations of the city for the purpose of perfecting final plans against the operating of what is termed by those who took part in the meeting as "so-called dancing classes." There have been two meetings held and twenty organizations have registered their protests against them. Whether there will be a fight put up by the promoters of the dancing classes or not, is not yet given out, but from all accounts those who are behind the move to have them discontinued at the price of admission that is now being charged are determined in their efforts. It is claimed that many more organizations who were not represented at the meeting have since agreed with the plans mapped out against the dancing classes and will fall in line and give their support. The club and society can claim that the dancing class es (or as they term them "socalled dancing classes") are taking advantage of the organizations by operating below the price of admission of 25 cents usually charged at dances, while on the other hand the managers of the dancing classes feel as if it is their privilege to fix the admission fee as they see fit. How-ever, it seems as if the fight is on, for we understand that communications have been sent to the various hall committees or agents, and that an open letter will be published this week to the orchestras that are running dancing classes and to the individuals who are playing in orchestras that are operating them. Another meeting of the representatives will be held on the first Sunday in next month at the Eureka Club. An Open Letter to the Orchestras of the city. Savannah, Ga.. Dec. 13, 1914 To the orchestras of the city and individual performers in same: Gentlemen: The undersigned organizations through their representatives authorized the following letter for publication and for your consideration: "that all orchestras operating "so-called dancing classes" at an admission below 25 cents or any individual who performs in any orchestra that is operating one, shall after a reasonable time from the publication of this letter be excluded from furnishing music for the undersigned organizations as an orchestra or as an individual performer in any orchestra not connected with a dancing class, unless the orchestras that are now running dancing classes cease operating below 25 cents, or the individual discontinues his connection with the orchestra or orchestras that continue to operate them. Your reply can be sent to the secretary of the committee. W. H. Logan at 817 West Broad street. Failing to hear from you in a reasonable (in our judgement) time, the actions of the committee will be enforced." Signed. Young Adelphias A. and S. C., Young Adelphias Branch, Eureka A. and A.

Old Get-rich-quick Schemes. Old Get-rich-quick Schemes. About the year 1720 a great many Englishmen invested millions of money in companies which were organized for such objects as, "Wrecks to Be Fished For on the Irish Coast," "For Making Oil From Sunflower Seeds," "For Importing a Number of Large Jackasses From Spain," "For a Wheel of Perpetual Motion" and, most extraordinary of all, "For an Undertaking Which Shall In Due Time Be Revealed." The promoter of this last company received more than 1,000 subscriptions during the morning on which the offering was made, and disappeared the same afternoon with more than 2,000 guineas—World's Work. There Was A Difference. There Was a Difference. When Dr. Randall Davidson, archbishop of Canterbury, was a curate one day at Dartford he took a Sunday school class in a neighboring parish. The subject was "King Solomon," and after the lesson he proceeded to catechise the children. "Tell me, boys," he said, "what was the difference between Solomon and other men?" No answer. "Come, come!" said the future archbishop. "Was there any difference, for instance between King Solomon and myself?" A tiny hand went up, and a tiny voice replied, "Please, sir, Solomon was wise!"-London M. A. P. As It Was Revealed Dr. Hale declared once that he had had a special revelation. He was down in Malne with an agreeable company of fishermen, and he must needs leave the trout brook in order to get to Boston in time to prepare his sermon. As he thought of the old trout rod and the new sermon, the "revelation" suddenly came to him something like this: "It is far better to preach a good old sermon than a poor new one. Edward Elderett Hale stay where, you are and go a fishing."—Boston Cooking School Magazine. Dr. Johnson's Spelling Dr. Johnson's ignorance of derivations led him to absurdities of spelling that were admitted even by Boswell. Dr. Johnson's methods in tracing etymologies were of the simplest. "This is a great work, air," said Dr. Adams to him. "How are you to get all the etymologies?" "Why, air," replied Johnson, "here is a shelf with Junius and Skinner and others, and there is a Welsh gentleman who has published a collection of Welsh proverbs who will help, me with the Welsh." And so the famous dictionary was written; with little assistance from the learned, as the dictionary maker himself complained. That little came from a man who sent him a list of thirty derivations. Barcastle They were leaning over the fence, these ladylike neighbors, and they seemed to be having a heated argument. "How do you know it is so?" asked one lady.

"Well, if I say it to you it does—it goes all over town."—Cleveland Plain Dealer. Big Ones For Little Ones Years ago there lived a certain backwoods farmer who had a singular faculty for overlooking the most obvious things. Once he swam his horse across a river and stopped at a house near by to borrow a bucket. "I want to water my boss down here at the river," he explained. On another occasion he approached a neighbor and surprised him with the offer of a trade. "I'd like to swap my three big pigs," he said, "for three little pigs." "What's that?" demanded the actioned neighbor. "Well, you see," answered the other, "my pigs have got too big for their pen." Without Horns. A clergyman, was an important witness in a horse dealing case. He gave a somewhat confused account of the transaction in dispute, and the cross examining counsel, after making several blustering but ineffective attempts to obtain a more satisfactory statement, said: "Pray, sir, do you know the difference between a horse and a cow?" "I acknowledge my ignorance," replied the reverend gentleman. "I hardly know the difference between a horse and a cow or between a bull and a bully—only a bull. I am told, has horns, and a bully—here he made a respectful bow to the advocate." Finally, for me, has horns. 2 BRAND NEW 6-BOOM COTTAGES IN CANN PARK, 44th Street, West $1500.00 EACH ON EASY TERMS G. H. BOWEN, "The Real Estate Man."

G. Obrecht to three adults. The happy candidates were Mrs. Al- ma Rodgers, Miss Pearl Robinson and Mrs. Beatrice Ramsey. For godmothers they had Mrs. Charles Ward, Miss Gertrude Davis . and Mrs. Clotile Lewis. After the ceremony solemn bene- diction of the Belessed Sacrament took place, and a beautiful solo,“O Salutaris” was sung by Mr. Nel- son Cuyler. The great feast of Christmas will be celebrated with great solemnity in St. Benedict’s Church ‘and St. Mary’s Chapel The first-solemn service will be held at St. Benedict’s in the morning at 5:30 a.m. At 7 and 8 a, m.

St. Philip A. M. Sunday School and Rev. Singleton’s Five Years Administration.. | By Jesse Brinson | The group or cut appearing in, this articlé shows the officers and teachers .of the Sunday school with a few left off, because, of absence. = The school has an enrollment of 575, consisting of 16 officers, 34 permanent teachers, 12 assist- ants and some standing commit- tees.For more than ten years the school has. been slowly, but stéadily making progress in one way or another. Eight of the 34 teachers, some committees, and the Boy’s Whistling Club have been added as a result of the Young Peoples Congress which met in Atlanta from 8th to roth of July of this year. I only wish a. a * & gas RR LA Ci Re eee CRS eae a Wi hee F . MS ae poem “ES a we We ee 4 Pere [ene Sa * Rev. R. H. Singleton. that time and space permitted me to speak of the great and per- manent good obtained at this meeting. We had twelve repre- sentatives from our church, all active members of our Sunday school. I am sure we had a larger_representation than any other Sunday school except some of the larger schools of Atlanta, and I doubt that any 6f them can boast of having had a represen- tation equal to ours, not with- standing the 6oo miles round trip rail road fare.. The expenditures of our school for this conference year have ex- ceeded the receipts which were a little more than six hundred dollars, The handsome gold medal which was offered for the M. B.U. rally in 1910 was won by, this Sunday school and is being Fee we oe a a rate > a Be 5 Mr. Jesse Brinson, Supt. St. Philip Sunday School warn by its superintendent. At present the Sunday school is moving along swimmingly and with a business system that is excellent. For this splendid sys- tem we are indebted to the pres- ent pastor. On Wednesday night aftér the last Sunday in each month, each officers and teachers submit a written report of the work done and thus we are able to keep the machinery of the school well oiled. Other Wednesday hights we use from 60 to 75 minutes for thE STUCY Of tne es50us. ee portance of these meeting shas grown so great in the estimation \Sf most of the officials and jteachers that they will positively ot make any cngagements for Wednesday nights. i The school is divided into six departments as follows: the nor- ma!, the senidr, intermediate, {junior primary and cradle roll 'We have also superintendents of the home, missionary, and cradle roll departments at work to get them in operation. We have aroll- ing black board, or looking glass which reflects the report of each teacher every sunday. a ! The pastor, Dr. Singleton, has dene much to bring about the very satisfactory results in the splendid business system that is maintained in our Sunday school. Dr. Singleton has, for five years, been the powerful dynamo that j has kept things humming in every department. Under his leader- ship we have, for the five years, ‘been able to send up each year [the following: children’s “day ; $32.00, endowment or educational day $105.00, Easter day $120.00. The Dollar money has been stead- ily increasing, so that the last re- port at Waycross, Ga., was $605. Let us note a few items that we may see if there has not been something doing at “Greater St. Philip” in 1914. The present membership is 1244; converts 70; baptized, aduts 15, infants 15; to- tal 30. Received into full mem- bership 88; on prébation 91. The 1420 visits made by the pastor speak for themselves. 719 of these were visits to the sick, which shows that the sick of the flock are not overlooked by the good shepherd. 7 The A. C. E. League’s collec- tion $61.26; W. H. and F. M. So- ciety $11£.88; Musical and Dram- atical Club $156.80; Sunday Schol $614.41 ; Stewards $2359.29; Trus- tees $6480.83 With the small amounts from the various clubs and boards add- ed, we have a grand total collect- ed this conference year of $r10,- 749-10. | The amount collected would hhave succeeded the twelve thous- land raised in 1913, had not the panic struck Savannah such a ‘telling blow. During the five years of Dr. Singleton’s adminis- tration, there has been collected from all departments of the church $60, 000.00. But this is but a small part of Dr. Singleton’s accomplishments during these fivd years. The $40,000.00 brick church and parsonage, the most ‘modern in the city, also go to the credit of the good Doctor, and yet this is not all, for just beyond the southern city limits there has Been erected a five story brick structure, known as Central Park Normal and Industrial Institute, with twenty acres ®f lid includ- eded. It is true that others cu- operated and helped, but we all know that Dr. Singleton led, and no one will deny that witi..ut his untiring leadership in the matter, there would have been no Central Park College standing as it does Mtoday, a pride to the colored race in general and the A. M. E. Church in particular. But even that is not all, for the mother church itself—the historic church of Georgia—the pride of the A. 1M. E. connections, was brought from a practical mass of ruins to the magnificent edifice it now is by Rev. R. H. Singleton, D. D., who broke all previous records in , Georgia by spending five years at | this, old Monumental Church, and his successor stated publicly on Sunday 22nd"that Dr. Singleton | was the best pastor that he had jever followed, ton’s fidelity? If you would them search the minutes of the Georgia conference and see that for 17 years he has held and continues to hold the very responsible po- sition of secretary-treasurer where the money entrusted to this office ranges from five to ten thousand dollars. He smashed all records for the state and is appointed financial agent for St. Philip for 1915 by our good bi- shop, J. S. Flipper, and requested by our loyal board of stewards to fill our pulpit for the sixth year and what, is‘ more gratifying, on the first Tuesday night after the stewards had unanimously re- quested his services, before he could finish his report a splendid resolution was read endorsing the action of the bishop and the board of stewards. On motion the: re- solution was unanimously adopt- ed. | The writer of this article can | Fecall several occasions on which strong resolutions have been {assed endorsing Dr. Singleton’s election to the bishopric at the Inext General Conference. It is ustless for me to try to in- form you of the great esteem in which Dr. Singleton is held by his people here. Time and space {will not permit. I, therefore, {conclude by saying that the world is saying: Give us men to match the moun- | tains; ; Give us men to match the plains, |Men with empires in their pur- pose, | And new ¢ras in their brains. Dr. Singleton is, without a doubt, one of those men. Asbury M. E.

Webster "An apt quotation is as good as an original thought." There comes to my desk, monthly, a magazine with a theological bias. I seldom read it, tho I glance over its pages. Occasionally an article seems to awaken an interest in its title, a thought that continually recurs, even as one finds himself repeating the words of a familiar hymn. "Shall we take Jesus seriously? is the title of an editorial in this magazine that has remained in my mind for weeks, and I wonder if I can do better than give it as a Christmas message, while at the same time I venture to quote largely from the theological article. "Shall we take Jesus seriously? War puts that question to us with terrible frankness. We acknowledge Jesus as Lord, but do we keep his commandments? We have cophesied in his name, and in his name have done mighty works. But does he really know us as those who are taking up the crosses and following him?" "The evidence of our real confidence in Him we suddenly see does not lie in accepting dogmas concerning his person and nature, Orthodoxy no more than socialism has kept men from war. Millions of men who pray to the same Trinity, repeat the same creed, and anathematize the same heresies are busily engaged in killing each other. Militarism and false philosophies of history have made men forget Jesus, or have led them to make Him into a new God of war with a helmet instead of a crown of thorns, carrying a rifle instead of a cross." "Greek." orthodoxy. Roman Catholic. Lutheran. Anglican. Presbyterian. all of whom make identical confessions regarding the Godman, are killing each other with the same avidity as if there had never been a Jesus. Evidently men can be theologically orthodox and put their Christ to open shame. "Nor can we Americans be complacent in our neutrality. We have our Navy League, and those who tell you that international morality isno stronger than military preparation. Incipient militarists tell us to distrust and hate the very nations to whom the church of Christ is sending missionaries to teach the primacy of God of Love." "Are we not even now being urged to grasp the world's trade as unhappy Europe sees it slip from fingers that grasp the sword? Suppose the good Samaritan, finding the traveler struggling with the robbers, had run off with the travelers-clothes and luggage? Would Jesus have told the rest of the world to go and do likewise? "Is the Sermon on the Mount good instruction for militarism? Do soldiers put the Golden Rule in their knapsacks? Is love your enemies printed on battle-flags? Did the soldiers of Jesus go to the cross to save the world? Men tell us we must have war in order to become strong. Jesus taught that we must become great by sacrificial service like his own. Men teach us that we must build up a nation's moral by economic policies. Jesus taught us that we cannot serve God and Mammon. Men tell us that we must fight for our rights. Jesus told us by word and by example that we must die for other people's rights. Men tell us that we must learn to fight, kill and hate if we are to dwell in safety as a nation. Jesus told us that God is love, and that the way to peace is through a life that refuses to countenance hate and prefers loyalty to the crucified Christ to comfort with political supermen. Comment:-The question "Shall we take Jesus seriously?" implies another question:-"Do we take Jesus seriously?" and its answer, "We do not." To-day the "dogs of hate and of war" are let loose in Western Europe, and one can hardly dare presage the length of the conflict or the amount of devastation that will be the outcome.

It may not be the touchstone to which we bring all the problems that arise out of that personal life of which each of us lives with himself, with no company but God, and out of which comes our character; in that outer life with our fellows where our personal success is wrapped up in their opinion of us, whether good or ill; in that life, and society, where others are built up or degraded by the quality of men that we are; and in that communal life in which the nations represents to its fellow nations either the God of War or the God of Love.

This great disparity in death rate in a great measure is accounted for because our ancestors were not city-dwellers. It is possible to prevent tuberculosis to a great extent by, isolating those having it at home and keeping their dishes, clothing and so forth separate; or treating and caring for them in hospitals or sanitariums; not spitting on floors and sidewalks; avoiding overwork; intemperance, loss of sleep, living and sleeping in overcrowded rooms dwelling in damp, dark, musty basements; in houses built close together, low on the ground, with little, if any provision for comfort and no observation of sanitary laws; eating and sleeping with consumptives; supplying bed and living rooms with abundant, wholesome air, and sunsliine; bathing and changing clothing frequently; keeping homes, yards and surroundings in clarion tones. Tuberculosis health. When tuberculosis is contracted one should not dispair of recovery from it, if treatment is received at its beginning. Proclaim it from the house tops, announce it in streets and lanes in claron tones. Tuberculosis has been cured, is now being cured and can be cured.

Jeffrey took off the comedy role and both shared liberal aplause. Mr. Frank DeLyons, in both the role of a sailor and that of an old man showed to excellent advantage.
