EMANCIPATION DAY EXERCISES NEXT FRIDAY
EMANCIPATION DAY EXERCISES NEXT FRIDAY
PRESIDENT B. F. ALLEN TO BE THE SPEAKER.
Both Emancipation Associations Will take Part in Celebration—Uniform Ranks Knights of Pythias and Knights of Damon to Escort Civic Bodies in Parade—Exercises at St. Philip Church.
A mammoth parade and exercise in commemoration of the fifty-second anniversary of the issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation by Abraham Lincoln, giving freedom from bondage to the Negroes in the United States will be held in this city on next Friday morning.
The parade which is expected to be one of the largest held in recent years by Negroes in this city will probably start from Gwinnett and West Broad streets about 10 o'clock Friday morning and after traversing the principal streets of the city will end at St. Philip Church, Charles and West Broad streets where the exercises will be held. Many of the leading civic societies of the city will be in line and the Uniform Rank Knights of Pythias and Knights of Damon will act as an escort.
President Benjamin F. Allen of Lincoln University, Jefferson City, Mo., will deliver the Emancipation address. President Allen who is a former Savannahian, is one of the leading Negro educators of the country. He is a forceful and magnetic speaker and a large crowd will doubtless be present to hear him.
There will be other entertaining features on the program.
An important meeting of all persons interested in the celebration will be held at St. Paul Church, West Broad and Maple streets, on Monday night at 8 o'clock.
Musicians Meeting
The colored musicians of the city have decided to be more closely in touch with one another, and a meeting to "get to gether" will be held tomorrow at Coles hall, Waldburg street, west. Unlonism will probably be the main feature, all musicians and music enthusiasts are invited to be present at 3:30 o'clock p. m. James A. Thomas, temporary chairman J. S. Daniels, temporary secretary.
Y.W.C.A.
The Y. W. C. A. met on last Sunday at St. Phillips A. M. E. Church, and regardless of the weather, enough were present to hold a very interesting meeting. A business meeting will be held on Wednesday at the above place at 4 o'clock. All members are requested to be present.

VOLUME XXX
Christmas Sermon In Words of One Syllable.
An innovation in sermons was the one delivered by the Rev. A. Smythe Palmer, M. A., D. D., vicar of Holy Trinity church, Wanstead, England, on the birth of Christ. This sermon is entirely in words of one syllable.
who tells us and would have us know what God thinks, for if it were not for him we could not know at all. "God did so love the world that he gave his own, one Son, to be born at this time for us, to the end that all who trust in him should not die, but have the life which lasts for aye." He came and "dwell with us" on earth that men might see with their own eyes at least one pure life, lived free from slim. He was made "flesh of our flesh" and "bone of our bone," "God with us" in truth, but man no less, true man and true God—a child like one of our own. That is the strange thing, so deep that no man, wise as he may be, can quite take it in. He was to be "God with us," but at the same time "a worm and no man"—less than a man in the grief and pain and scorn which he bore.
The texts take our thoughts back to the birth of this day. It is a birthday for the whole world to keep. All men can say: "To us this child is born; to us God gave this son of his love. I have my share in it." And so we are all glad of heart and make our church gay with plants and flowers and sing our hymns of joy and keep the feast with gifts and good fare. It is the birth day of all our hopes. Now, it was good news of great joy that the host from on high brought to the herds who kept watch on their sheep in the fields. And it is still so. For us, as much as for them, was born in that small town one strong to save. "Which is Christ the Lord."
It is old news now, and I fear it falls on our dull, cold hearts like some old tale of long past time which has lost its charm. Oh, let us not shut our ears to it as some of the first men did! When he came to his own his own would not take him in. They said, "There is no room for him here"—no room in the inn when he came to it. It was not an inn, you must know, like one of ours, but a mere·bare court where those on the road might rest—a "khan" they call it in the east:
Does it not seem, to us a sad and a strange sight that a young babe should be shut out in the cold night—God in want of house room? A poor place, at best, as rude and rough as we can well think, and, such as it was, quite full with the crowd who had come first. The host of the inn sends them off. He tells them there is a cave at the back of the inn where the beasts are kept; they may find rest there, if they will. That cave, where the birth of all time took place, is still shown in the rock. A great church built there marks the spot. Then, poor, mean and cold, it was the best place he could find to lay his head.
"The fox has his hole and the bird of the air her nest, but the Son of Man bath not where to lay his head." So, in that cave in the rock, the stall of the ox and the ass, in the crib out of which they pit their hay, the newborn, babe

SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, SATURDAY DECEMBER 26TH 1914
AN APPEAL TO
SANTA CLAUS
OH, Santa, can't you come again? Just see the dolly that you gave! She's gone and slipped out of my hands-- Her head is all that I can save!
My daddy says that you can't come Until another year has passed. But years are very, very long-- Just think how long a year can last!
I loved my dolly--oh, so much!
My heart most broke when down she fell.
But, Santa--let me whisper it--
Another doll might do as well.
Miss Tucker Entertained.
Mrs. Franklin F. Jones entertained on Tuesday afternoon for Miss Anna T. Tucker in honor of her approaching marriage to Dr. C. E. Brent. It was a most delightful affair. Christmas greens, southern slillax, poinsettias and other holiday ornaments were used in the decorations so that the two large parlors and hallway were turned into a veritable bower of enchantment. The ladies, about fourty in number were becomingly and beautifully gowned. The occasion was one of real jollity and the holiday spirit prevailed throughout the afternoon. Progressive whist was played and Miss Tucker was given the guest prize. Mrs. M. C. Branham won first prize, Mrs. A. P. Barnard, second; Mrs. J. R. Davis, third and Miss Harriet Jones received the consolation prize. The prizes were all very handsome. Those invited were Mrs. A. L. Tucker, Mrs. J. L. Taylor, Mrs. Jas. P. Monroe, Mrs. J. R. Davis, Mrs. J. H. Butler, Mrs. I. D. Williams, Mrs. A. P. Barnard, Mrs. J. W. Habersham, Mrs. Joseph King, Mrs. M. B. Branham, Mrs. Eugene Edwards, Mrs. Marion O. Johnson, Mrs. David Moore, Mrs. J.

Wage Earners Starts Christmas Club

The Three Kings,
Three kings came riding from far away—Melchlor and Gaspar and Baltasar. Three wise men out of the east were they, And they traveled by night and they slept by day. For their guide was a beautiful, wonderful star.
The star was so beautiful, large and clear That all the other stars of the sky Became a white mist in the atmosphere, And by this they knew that the coming was near Of the Prince foretold in the prophecy.
Three caskets they bore on their saddle-bows. Three caskets of gold with golden keys. Their robes were of crimson silk with rows Of bells and pomegranates and turbelsows. Their turbans like blossoming almond trees.
And so the three kings rode into the west Through the dusk of night, over hill and dell. And sometimes they nodded with beard on breast And sometimes talked as they paused to rest With the people they met at some way-side well.
"Of the child that is born," said Baltasar, "Good people, I pray you tell us the news. For we in the east have seen his star And have ridden fast and have ridden far To find and worship the King of the Jews."
And the people answered, "You ask in vain; We know of no king but Herod the Great." They thought the wise men were men insane As they spurred their horses across the plain Like riders in haste who cannot wait.
And when they came to Jerusalem Herod the Great, who had heard this thing. Sent for the wise men and questioned them And said, "Go down unto Bethelhem And bring tidings of this new King."
C. R. R.
So they rode away, and the star stood still,
The only one in the gray of morn—
Yes, it stopped—it stood still of its own will
Right over Bethlehem on the hill,
The city of David, where Christ was born.
And the three kings rode through the gate
and the guard,
Through the silent street till their horses
turned
And neighed as they entered the great inn
yard.
But the windows were closed, and the
doors were barred,
And only a light in the stable burned.
And cradled-there in the scented hay,
In the air made sweet by the breath of kine,
The little child in the manger lay,
The child that would be King some day
Of a kingdom not human, but divine.
His mother, Mary of Nazareth,
Sat watching beside his place of rest,
Watching the even flow of his breath.
For the joy of life and the terror of death
Were mingled together in her breast.
They jald their offerings at his feet.
The gold was their tribute to a king;
The frankincense, with its odor sweet.
Was for the priest; the paraclete,
The myrrh for the body's burying.
And the mother wondered and bowed her head
And sat as still as a statue of stone.
Her heart was troubled, yet comforted,
Remembering what the angel had said
Of an endless reign and of David's throne.
Then the kings rode out of the city, gate
With a clatter of hoofs, in proud array,
But they went not back to Herod the Great.
For they knew his malice and feared his hate.
And returned to their homes by another way.
Their Pet Name For Her.
"Your cousin Sarah is such a volatile creature." "Yes; we call her Sal Volatile." -Boston Transcript.
NUMBER 14
URBAN LEAGUE GIVES CHEER TO POOR PERSONS
URBAN LEAGUE GIVES CHEER TO POOR PERSONS
HUNDREDS INDIGENT FAMILIES MADE HAPPY.
Thirteen Wagon Loads of Goods Distributed—Over Three Hum-Individuals Contributed to Fund—Merchants Give Liberally—Amount Raised This Year Nearly Four Hundred Dollars—Several Subscriptions Out.
Without creating any undue noise, bluster or commotion, the local branch of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes went about its task of dispensing sunshine and happiness in the homes of hundreds of indigent Negroes on last Thursday.
It was through the raising of a Christmas fund from the citizens that the league was enabled again to add to the agencies of Christmas charity for the unfortunate fellow beings who dwell within the confines of the city. Well might the league be proud of its work of helping the poor to enjoy some of the pleasures of the present yuletide season, because never before was work of this sort carried out so systematically among Negroes here as was the league's distribution of goods this year.
There were twelve wagon loads of edibles, clothing and toys distributed by the committee of ladies who had this work in charge, and the sincere thanks returned by the benefactors through the league to the charitable citizens who made possible the raising of the Christmas fund will ever be remembered by the ladies who toiled so hard to carry out the work so as to reach as many of the unfortunates in the city as possible.
Each of three hundred odd baskets distributed contained grits, rice, sugar, coffee, meat, potatoes, oranges, apples and candy. Aside from these there were 500 pieces and 400 packages given away. Clothing and toys of every description, donated by charitable merchants, were distributed. Approximately 600 homes were assisted. It may be found by those looking over the following list of contributors to the fund that there are several duplications in names, an error which will be correct in next week's final report of the league to the public through the Tribune. There are several subscriptions still out, which the league will be pleased to have paid as soon as possible.

stands up in high rellef from the sur-

‘Sorrow,
A wealthy woman whe has lost a
$10,000 necklace imagines she has a
great sorrow. Why, she doesn’t know
. What sorrow is! Did you ever see a
ahabbily dressed mother trying to pull
two shabby little tads away from the
window of a candy store because she
didn’t have any money to spend on
them? That is sorrow. And, while
the Ittle tnds’ may be broken hearted,
they will never know just how badly
the shabbily dressed mother feels.—

“Dunes,” as we call hillocks and
Hdzes of sand, is the same word as our
“downs,” and the adverb “down” ts
Feally the same word too. It was orig:
{nally “adown,” a corruption of the
Anglo-Saxon “of dune,” meauing from
the down or hill, So thé substantive
“down” and the adverb “down” have
come fo suggest almost diametrically
opposite ideas, and the phrase “down

xo be one of the strangest in the lan-
guaye.—London Spectator.

A Christmas
Eve Warning
"Now, keep as quiet, pussy, as you can be, because If we make just a bit of noise we won't see Santa Claus."
THE little dog drooped what tail he had,
The broken doll fainted away,
And the poor Teddy bear was filled with despair
When the new doll came to stay.
"Oh, have you forgotten old friends?" they cried,
But the little girl didn't hear
As she cuddled with joy her new found toy
And sang in its waxy ear.
1
THEY SNUGGLED UP CLOSE TO HER
BREAST.
BUT the days flew by, and she missed her friends,
Though she cherished the new love too.
But the waxen girl with the flaxen curl
Played none of the games they knew.
So she hunted around till she found them all,
And they snuggled up close to her breast,
And never a word of reproach was heard
As she whispered, "Old friends are best."
—John Rutland in Leslie's Weekly.
TAD'S CHRISTMAS THEATER.
How President Lincoln Came to Grant Son's Unique Request.
Tad Lincoln wanted a Christmas gift such as perhaps no other president's son ever wanted before or since.
"Father," said Tad, "there is something I'd like for Christmas, if you'll give it to me."
As the son asked the question his father looked at the boy over the rims of his spectacles in a grave way and asked:
"What is that, my son?"
"I want a theater," said Tad.
"Well, my boy, I don't know that I have any objection," said the president. "There are plenty of them, I suppose, in the toy shops."
"Oh, but I don't want a toy theater," protested the youngster. "I want a real one. There isn't any reason why we shouldn't have a theater in the White House."
Mr. Lincoln was not at first disposed to take the suggestion favorably, but Tad, who was his favorite child and at that time eleven years old, was persistent, and at length the indulgent parent yielded. This was just before the Christmas of 1863—too late to have the theater ready for the holidays, many preparations being required. But it is a matter of history, though known to few, that not long after the following New Year's day the boy's ambition was realized, a room on the second floor of the executive mansion being set aside for the purpose and a stage erected, with gas footlights and simple scenery.
HOLLY FOR THE PRESIDENT.
Southern Bolles and Beaus Brought It by Stagecoach.
Before railways coaches changed horses at Alexandria and at the capital, and loads of young belies and beaus went to the Christmas parties in Washington, carrying to the president and his family holly and trailing pine from their southern homes.
President Buchanan, with Miss Lane, "the golden beauty of the White House," gave grand fetes to the young people of the capital in 1858-9 on Christmas eve. The maldens wore empire gowns and high combs. To each guest Miss Lane gave a sprig of holly berries as a souvenir.
Perhaps the most attractive event of President Johnson's administration was the Christmas party for children given to please his nephews and nieces and their friends. A platform stood in the center of the east room on which sat the Marine band. Overhead were festooned silken flings, and flowers bloomed everywhere. It was a fairyland of butterfly coloring-gold and scarlet sashes, stockings and pretty slippers.
Mr. Glumm on Christmas.
My old friend Mr. Glumm declares
That holidays are all a sell;
They interfere with our affairs
And cost a lot of cash as well.
And yet his words cannot provoke
My envy for his boarded sum.
I'd rather find myself dead broke
Than view the world like Mr. Glumm.
He vows that festival events
Are but rehearsals for ill health.
He tastes no pleasant condiments
Unless, perchance, "tis done by stealth.
But even dyspepsia cannot make
My views of life to his succumb.
I'd rather have a stomach ache
Than nurse a grouch like Mr. Glumm.
—Washington Star.
THE SPIRIT OF LOVE
You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments that stand out are the moments when you have done things in a spirit of love. As memory scans the past, above and beyond, all the transitory pleasures of life there leap forward these supreme hours when you have been enabled jo do unnoticed kindnesses to those round about you, things too wailing to speak about, but which you feel have entered into your eternal life. Henry Drummond.
The French Postoffice.
The French postal system was inaugurated in the reign of Louis XI., but the first director general was appointed by Louis XIV. He farmed the office, paying a million francs a year for the privilege. This method continued until the revolution, when the farmer was abolished, and the control was given to ten managers elected by universal suffrage. That plan did not work very satisfactorily, and the office of director general was revived under the consulate. The office of undersecretary for posts and telegraphs, held by M. Siman, was first created in 1877, abolished in 1878 and revived again ten years later.—Westminster Gazette.
A Soldier's Ammunition.
The United States soldier goes into battle with 100 rounds of ammunition, the German with 120, the French with 120, the British with 100, the Russian with 120, the Italian with 162 and the Japanese with 150. The ammunition carts are, of course, always in the near rear to keep up the supplies.—New York American.
The Right Temperament
"That girl ought to succeed on the stage. She's got the true leading lady temperament."
"How's that?"
"Why, she never interested herself in an amateur play without demanding the star part, and when she couldn't get it she'd break up the show."—Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Darkest of Night.
The darkest hour precedes the dawn is an old saying, but scientifically true, though no explanation seems possible. W F. Deming, an English authority on meteors, says he has often observed the phenomenon. He describes it as a greater darkness dropping like a mantle and blotting out objects which had been plainly visible during the previous hours of the night. He adds that the dense opacity of the air sometimes induces a nervous sensation.—New York World.
Eskimo High Kickers
Instead of using only one leg in the standing high kick Eskimos employ both feet, just as they would in a high jump. Although handicapped in this way, by throwing the head and the shoulders higher than the feet a record of six feet nine inches has been established. No other people enjoy more than the Eskimos the exhibiting of their athletic abilities. Whenever there is a national celebration they literally flock into. Nome by the hundreds, intent on displaying their prowess.
She Had Learned.
"The hardest thing to acquire, miss," said the dramatic teacher, "is the art of laughing naturally without apparent effort."
"Oh, I've got that down fine," said the would be soubrette. "I typewrote for three years for a man who was always telling me funny stories about his little boy."—Indianapolis News.
Getting Rough With Juanita.
Small Mary, who had been taught to read by the modern "sounding out" system, was amusing herself by singing the school songster from cover to cover. Presently, as she reached "Juanita," one heard coming in her birdlike little voice from the depths of the big armchair:
"In the dark I slammed her."
A startled parent found that the lines really read:
"In thy dark eyes' splendor."—New York Post.
Odd Names In China
Chinese children are endowed with strange Christian names. Their girls, for instance, are not called Mabel, Jenny or Matilda, but Cloudy Moon, Celestial Happiness, Spring Peach or Casket of Perfumes. Their boys get less attractive names, being made for work and wisdom rather than plungure and dancing. Thus we find a little two-year-old Practical Industry, three-year-old Ancestral Knowledge, four-year-old Complete Virtue, five-year-old Discreet Valor. To their slaves they give still another set of names. Not For Me, Joy to Serve. Your Happiness and Humble Devotion may be taken as typical examples.
Early Football Players.
Football was for many years the national game of Florence. The season was from January to March, and the ladies and gentlemen of Florence and the populace as well were wont to assemble on the Piazza Santa Gloce to witness the game, which was called "calcio," from the word meaning "to kick." The last game was played in 1733.
Poetry and Patriotism
You should look as well going as coming. Notice the heels of your shoes, when the heels are twisted they will throw your shoes out of shape, which makes a bad appearance when going. In repairing your shoes we make it our special business to restore them to their original shape, no matter how bad they are twisted. Ladies and children shoes are given special attention. All work is carefully looked after by me before going out.
Zakris Topellus, "the most popular poet Finland has ever known," was a lover of his native land above all else. Once, says Paul Walneman in "A Summer Tour In Finland," he wrote as follows to a little Finnish boy who was at the time residing in England for his schooling:
"You are in a great and rich country, but never forget that you are only an exile. If Queen Victoria herself should write and offer you a post in her kingdom remember that you must answer 'I cannot, because I have a cottage waiting for me when I am grown up.' It has a roof higher than the rest of hall in Windsor castle. That good the blue sky of my own land."

Genius and the Last Born.
Continuity to the generally accepted dictum that geniuses have been the firstborn of their parents, a medical journal gives the following: "Coleridge was the last of thirteen children. Cooper the eleventh of twelve. Washington Irving the last of eleven. Balzar the last of three. George Elliot the last of four. Napoleon the eighth and probably the last of his family. Daniel Webster the last of seven. Franklin the last of seventeen and the last born of several generations. Rembrandt the last of six. Rubens of seven. Landseer was the fifth of seven. Von Weber the ninth. Wagner the last of seven, as also Mozart: Schumann the last of five' and Shubert the thirteenth of fourteen."

The Name "Calais."
Calais, argues a correspondent, is surely one of those familiar French names that are and should be Anglicized, as is the case with Paris, Lyons, Marseilles, Florence. At any rate, Browning thought so when he frankly rimed it with an English word in his reference to Queen Mary Tudor:
Let us all stick to this, for the attempt to give the French sound is seldom a success. There is nearly always the English trick of putting a stress on the first syllable instead of the final one. Browning's time is not pretty, but it is a good enough guide.—London Chronicle.
Bolingbroke's Retort
When Bolingbroke, who was at Alexa-Chapelle during the treaty of peace at that place, at which time his attainer was not removed, was asked by an impertinent Frenchman whether he came there in any public character, his lordship answered: "Not at all I came like a French minister, with no character at all."

Sunday at the Y. M. C. A.
A representative gathering of men from all walks of life well nigh filled St. Paul C. M. E. Church on last Sunday to listen to the address of Dr. R. H. Singleton of St. Philip A. M. E. Church. Choosing as his subject, "Man," Dr. Singleton handled it in a way that elicited the most favorable comment at the conclusion of his address. It was the consensus of opinion that Dr. Singleton was at his best on last Sunday. His talk did no little toward giving added strength to the genuine Y. M. C. A. enthusiasm which now possesses the members of the association. A paper entitled, "The Y. M. C. A., the young man's, friend," by Mr. Luzene. Dixon also brought forth much favorable comment. On tomorrow the principal
address will be delivered by Health Officer Brunner, a subject of vital importance to both sexes of our people. I will pay not miss Dr Brunner's address. The public, both male and female are cordially invited to be present on tomorrow. The Y. W. C. A has been invited and is expected to attend in a body. Come out tomorrow and hear what the Y. M. C. A is trying to do. Hear the committee on Y. M. C. A. quarters be its report. The Y. W. C. A in its own quarters is now the slogan of the Association. The meeting begins promptly at 5 p.m. at St Paul C. M. E. Church, West Broad and Maple St.
Negro BusinessLeague Weekly Letter
Negro BusinessLeague Weekly Letter
(By J. C. Lindsay)
Now, that the joyous Christmas day is over, the sober minded and thoughtful ones among us are beginning to debate the proposition in our minds as to what is best for us to do in the way of taking better care of our businesses already established, and the systematic planning for the adoption of better methods of our future groupwork in the way of creating new enterprises for the purpose of furnishing wholesome and profitable employment for the army of, prepared young men and young women of the race who will come from our various schools and colleges next May and June.
New Year's Resolution
New Year's Resolution
The Negro Business League again presumes to ask that every mother's son of us, has it incorporated in his proverbial new year's resolution, that with God to help us, we will be of more service to the race in 1915 than we have ever been before.
We can render an almost invaluable service to the business men and women of the race by pointing out to them in a friendly and helpful way, their errors and mistakes. For example, should you know of any office where there is too much playing and frollicking during business hours, and you are a patron of that business, you owe it to that business, you owe it to yourself, indeed, you owe it to the race to call the attention of the manager or proprietor of such business to his possible losses to allow such unbusiness like practices to be carried on in his place. The manager or proprietor if he is worthy of the title "business man" will appreciate any of his patrons or customers calling his attention to any defect in connection with his business.
Must Measure-up to Standard
The time for getting business on the ground of color alone has long since pass. Our men in business must measure up to the high standard set by the other fellow. Our stores and shops, must present a business like appearance. We must keep our places clean and well lighted, as well as attractive. The attention given to our patrons must not be less than that given them by the other fellow. If the other fellow can afford to sell an article at a certain price, make investigations of your jobber as to how such article can be sold like that by your competitor, and if he, your competitor, has used better judgment than you in buying, and as a natural consequence, finds himself better prepared to serve the public, then don't fret when you find your trade gradually slipping away from you.
Cleanliness a Silent.Salesman. When a place of business is well stocked with seasonable goods, free from cobwebs, dust and fly specks, then add to this a common sense, pains taking accommodating salesman, and as a rule, the public with money to spend cares but little whether such a place and goods belong to a Negro or Chinese.
Aim of Business League.
Aim of Business League.
The aim of the Negro Business League is to impress our men in business as far as possible, with the importance of keeping their business up to the standard set by the other fellow. Get and keep those things in stock that your trade demands; make your deliveries promptly and do not become impatient when one of your customers seems to be somewhat hard to please; do not try to substitute a brand of goods, or an article on a customer, when it can be seen that such a customer is reasonably intelligent and is determined to have what they call for, if such an article or brand can be had in the market; in such a case, it would be good business sense to assure that customer by following your sufficient time, that the article in question, will be procured if same can be found in the market and will be sent to the customer's home.
Must be Operated on Merit We, as business men, must learn to operate our businesses on merit and not on sentiment. The thought that the Negro Business League wishes to advance in this connection is, that when and wherever the conditions are equal, or if there is just a small doubt
as to who should. handle the business, it does not hesitate to say that the Negro business man should be given the business. And yet, the Negro Business League wishes to go on record as being opposed to slovenly kept places of business by our men.
Open for Friendly Criticism.
The Negro Business League feels that every Negro man engaged in business in this community, is open for friendly criticism by those who are endeavoring to help them make a success.
Meets Competitors Like Men. The two Negro banks and the six industrial insurance companies are meeting their competitors in the field of business in their particular lines like men. These banks are not asking the public for their business on the ground that they are colored, but are asking for your business because they are rendering a service that the Negro engaged in business can ill afford to be without. The Wage Eearners begins its service to the business public every day in the week at nine o'clock in the morning and keep its doors open to the public until seven in the evening. The only excuse that the officers of this pioneer Negro bank offers for their course of procedure in this regard, is that they are desirious of offering to the public every accommodation in keeping with the dignity of their splendid banking institution.
The Insurance Companies Getting Their Deserts.
The Negro insurance companies which have rendered such valuable service to the race in that they have kept a number of men on the field all of these years, showing the unsuspecting and innocent the importance of demanding decent treatment from those who collect their weekly premiums, will perhaps, never be given the full credit for doing the pioneer work for the race along this line. Again let's all resolve to render better service for the uplift of the race in 1915 than ever before.
Come early to the League Wednesday evening January 6th, 1915 and bring someone with you.
Newspaper Men Are to Gather At Nashville, Tenn., February 12 and 13 in Their.Regular Session Much Work Ahead.
Nashville, Tenn., Dec. 22, 1914 As provided by the amendment of its constitution the National Negro Press Association will hold a regular session in Nashville, Friday and Saturday, February 12th and 13th, 1915. All members of the association in good and regular standing are urgently requested to be present. All who desire to join the National Negro Press Association are invited to send their membership fee $2.50, to the Corresponding Secretary, Mr. Henry Allen Boyd, 447 4th Avenue, North Nashville, that it may reach him by Friday morning, February 11th. This regular session was formerly known as the Mid-Winter Session, but because of the enormous amount of business to be transacted and the numerous plang on foot to be put in execution for the benefit of the newspapers and the allied printing trades, all regular sessions are now being held in mid-winter and the Executive Commission will be in the summer of each year. Every member of the Executive Commission is urgently requested to be present, and if it is impossible to be present, send their proxies to some one that they may be represented. Those contemplating attending the meeting at Nashville will please notify the Corresponding Secretary, in order that adequate arrangement for their comfort and care while in Nashville might be made. Programs setting forth what is to be done at the meeting in February, that is the business transacted, are to be mailed out not later than January 15th.

SUNDAY SCHOOL CONGRESS
PREPARATIONS
Concert of Action Noticeable Everywhere Leading up to the Coming Meeting At Birmingham Next June.
Nashville, Tenn.—Once more the announcement is made by the Secretary of the Sunday School Congress that the forces are lining up for the 1915 meeting. The sessions are to be held at Birmingham, Ala., and the dates have already been announced. The Secretary's office is one bee hive of activity Letters are pouring in, from every section of the United States
The Sunday school workers are planning and working to have increased delegations. All of the FRONT LINE SUNDAY SCHOOLS, many of them having been made so by their connection with the congress, seem to never tire of telling of the advantages that have been received, the encouragement brought about and the enthusiasm engendered the regular meeting of the Sunday School Congress forces
This week the secretary announced that four brass bands had signified their intention of serving the congress forces in the Birmingham meeting. The first to give notice was the Boy Cadet Band of Philadelphia, Pa. This musical aggregation is connected with the Zion Baptist Church, pastored by Rev. Elbert W. Moore, D. D. It is regarded as one of the most efficient musical organizations before the public. The next is the Tuggle Institute Band of Alabama. While this is a school aggregation, it is made up of boys that have made good. The third is the regular Cadet Band from the National Cadet Headquarters at Austin, Texas. General Crawford and Leutenant General Lott both said that these boys would come along with the regular battalion that is to be brought out of Texas. The fourth is the National Baptist Publishing Board Band that made such a successful hit in piloting the Sunday school congress special train on its way to Muskogee. The Sunday schools have already begun to elect their delegates and departmental conductors have agreed to bring their departments up to a higher order. The announcement of the reduced rates, declares the secretary, is to be made earlier this year than heretofore, in order that there might be special line up and more special train features. The state of Oklahoma is the first state thus far to announce a special train. They declare that they will leave Muskogee with a full train and pick up more delegates en route to Birmingham where they hope to meet with a larger special train than has ever been pulled off by any church forces.

The image shows a group of people gathered in a room with a wooden floor and a high ceiling. There are several individuals seated around a table, engaged in what appears to be a discussion or meeting. The room has a large window on the left side, allowing natural light to enter. The walls are adorned with framed pictures or artwork. The overall atmosphere suggests a formal or semi-formal gathering.
INTERIOR EUREKA CLUB WHERE EMANCIPATION EXE RCISE WILL BE HELD.
EMANCIPATION EXERCISE
Euretta Club Room Friday January First.
The Eureka Aid and Athletic Club will observe Emancipation day with appropriate exercises at their rooms, Masonic Temple, on Friday afternoon January 1st, beginning at 3:30 o'clock. For several years similar exercises have been held under the auspices of this club and they have all proven to be very interesting. Judging from the activity of the committee of arrangements of which Mr. G. L. Smith is chairman, the occasion will surpass all previous ones. After the completion of the program light refreshments will be served. The rooms of the club will be tastily decorated. There is expected to be given as a souvenir, the program of the day made in a booklet form, containing a group cut of the members' heads, forming the initials of the club, E. A. and A. C. Prof. J. W. Hubert, principal of the Cuyler Street school will deliver the principal address while Mr. Joseph J. Brown will act as master of ceremonies. The program which promises to be interesting is as follows:
Hymn, "All hail the power of Jesus name".....Congregation Invocation..Rev. W. W. Warthen Reading, "Emancipation Proclamation"..Mr. E. C. Blackshear Selection..Metronome Orchestra Address, "Eureka Club".....Mr.
R. W. Bryant.

DUTY.
DUTY.
Even if you have to force your self to do your duty, still do it. Do your duty even if your duty be wearisome and hard, for then you are in the place where it can become joyous and easy to you.—Phillips Brooks.
But He Did.
"What do you mean by kissing my daughter, sir?"
"I'm sorry, but I couldn't help myself."
"Couldn't help yourself! That's just what you did dof"
Two authors' wives were having tea together.
"My husband," said one, "often sits at his desk thinking and thinking and chewing his pen handle."
"As for my husband," said the other, "he has already gnawed off a corner of his typewriting machine."—New York Post.
Its Development
"How does a language grow?" "I should suppose from the roots of the words."—Baltimore American.

PROF. J. W. HUBERT, Speaker of Eureka Exercise
A Genius.
"Well, then, who supports him?" Philadelphia Ledger.
Feed Economy In Hotel
"Popular opinion is that half of the foodstuffs purchased by a hotel is wasted," said an assistant manager of a famous hotel. "Now, that is not true. A large hotel employs experts who plan so cleverly that almost everything is used from day to day. Take the bread, for instance. What is not used at once is used later for the employees and also for making the toasts on which many special meat and other dishes are served. Cakes are made up according to the demand for the day. It is known that there will be a greater demand on matinee days, when the tea garden and the restaurants are crowded. Don't believe too much about the waste."—New York Herald.
Cigarettes In China.
For genuinely cheap cigarettes China would appear to be without peer. Packages of ten cigarettes retail there for a cent gold, and with each package is given a Japanese made bamboo cigarette holder. If the smoker cares to buy in carton lots—a carton containing 500 cigarettes—he can get still more of a bargain, the carton costing but 39 cents United States money. These extraordinarily cheap cigarettes are made of native Chinese tobacco, so it is stated by our consul at Chungking. The profit to the manufacturing company on a package of ten cigarettes is approximately one-fifth of a cent.
Baffled Science.
Science solves formidable problems and is powerless before apparently simple ones. She discovers steam power and electricity and bends the forces of nature to our needs. Nevertheless she cannot yet tell why the acorn becomes an oak, why a stone falls to the ground. She is full of "whysit" that remain unanswered.
Mr. Hornhill—Do you know, darling I could pick you out of a crowd of wom en just by your style!
Mrs. Hornbill-I don't wonder, and me with this same old dress for the last two years!
"Mabel, why do you hesitate to marry me? I get $30 a week."
"Reginald, you are a good dresser."
"Yes."
"And I'm a good dresser."
"Well?"
"Which will be the good dresser after we are married?"—Louisville Courier-Journal.
"Not exactly. He's just flirting with conscience."—Judge. Expecting More Turndowns. "I understand that Jack, the awful flirt, has been thrown over by no fewer than three girls, he's been engaged to." "Yes. He's working now on an adjustable engagement ring."—Boston Transcript.
"There was only one little fault," said the would be inventor of perpetual motion.
"Machine stopped, eh?"
"No; I couldn't start it."—Philadelphia Ledger
Exceptions.
Exceptions.
"It's always either put up or shut up."
"Not when your wife tells you to stop grumbling and go to work on the stove. Then you have to do both."—Baltimore American.
"He isn't. His married life is so unhappy that he keeps on eating mush rooms in hope that he will get a toad stool by mistake."—Washington Star.
The Black Sea.
The Black sea is without rival in changes of name expressive of human feelings toward it. To the ancient Greek navigators it was at first known as the Pontus Axenos, the Inhospitable sea, on account of the savagery shown by the natives of its shores. Later it became the Pontus Euxinus, the Hospitable sea; either simply for the sake of changing an ill omened name to a flattering one, or in allusion to the growth of Greek commerce and colonization round the sea. Finally the Turks called it the Black sea because its shelterless expanse, its storms and its fog contrasted with the bright Aegean, which they had previously known—London Express.
Microbes In Kisses.
Patience—Isn't it funny to see two women kissing who are not fond of one another? Patrice—indeed, it is. It always looks to me as if each hoped the other would get all the microbes. Yonkers Statesman.
Prize Winner
Huggins—They tell me Mrs. Henpeck is a neat and tidy housekeeper. Guggins—Why, yes; her husband, so I am informed. can't even drop a remark at home but what she picks it up immediately.—Springfield Union.
Sarcasm.
Real Estate Agent (after showing lady over house for two hours)-Why are you crying, madam? Woman-Oh, I was thinking supposing this was the only house in the world and I had to live in it!-Exchange.
AFFECTION
The strength of affection is a proof, not of the worthiness of the object, but of the largeness of the soul that loves. Love descends, not ascends. The might of a river depends not on the quality of the soil through which it passes, but on the inerhaustibleness and depth of the spring from which it proceeds.—F. W. Robertson.
A Feminine Marvel.
A Feminine Marvel.
"Mrs. Blinks is a woman of great perseverance."
"Marvelous! Why, she's married two years and still urging her husband to go to church with her on Sundays."—Philadelphia Ledger.
Very Sick
"Jonesby had a doctor with him all night."
"Was he very sick?"
"He was toward the last, when the doctor held all the good hands."—Birmingham Age-Herald.
Could Do For Herself.
She was a very delightful but a very aged lady—over ninety—and her friends and relatives and even chance acquaintances, drawn by her exquisite personality, all did her homage and, as the saying is, "waited on her hand and foot."
She accepted it all very graciously, but with some inward rebellion, for to a very old and close mouthed friend she once said, with a quaint pucker of lips and brows:
"I am reminded sometimes of the old Mnes:
Just a Man.
"I used to be, but I got a look at one not long ago, and I'm not afraid any more. I found out that he was only a man, just like my husband." Exchange.
Sarcastic.
Mr. Naggitt—I don't feel like myself tonight. Mrs. Naggitt—Then we ought to have a pleasant evening.

Memory Verses, tl, Ié-—Golcen Text,
Hos. xiv, 4—Commentary Prepared
by Rev. D. M. Stearns.
vr lessons of this year begin with
fiv& studies in the book of Judges,
showlng the failure of ‘Israel. God's in-
tervention and man’s faithlessness. Ev-
ery deliverer whom God raised up was
in some sense suggestive of the great
Deliverer, the Lord Jesus Christ. ard
each one wrought In the power of the
Holy Spirit. Joshua tells of the ev-
trance of Israel into the promised land
and Its subjugation and division amony
the tribes, ending with Joshua’s fare-
well appeal to Israel to fear yye Lord
and serve Him In sincerity aod’n truth
and the determination of the people so
to do (Josh, xxiv, 14, 24. One of his
grandest farewell words was when he
reminded the people that not one thing
had failed of all the good things which
the Lord had spoken (Josh. xxlll, 140.
Bee the same blessed testimony In I
ings, vill, 56, and let each one lay it
to heart for his own special comfort.
‘The section assigned us for this day’s
lesson is a concise epitome of the bouk
of Judges, telling of Israel's persistent
turning away from God and of His
great patience with them. David sum-
marized the record in these words:
“Many times did He deliver them. but
they provoked Him with their counsel
and were brought low for their Jniqui-
ty. Nevertheless He regarded their uf-
Mietion when He heard their cry” (Ps.
evi, 43, 44: Ixxvili, 38). Paul somma-
rized Joshua and Judges in these words:
“When He had destroyed seven nations
Im the Jand of Canaan He divided their
Sand to them by lot. And after that He
gave unto them judges about the space
of 450 years until Samuel the prophet”
(Acts sill, 19, 20).
The first chapter of Judges tells how
tribe after tribe had failed to drive out
the people of the land as they had been
commanded, and our lesson chapter
epens with the Lord’s reproof for this
aln, saying: “Ye have not obeyed my
voice. Why have ye done this?”
(Verse 2.)
Onur lesson begins by telling us that
while Joshua lived and also during the
Mfetime of the elders that outlived
Joshua the people served the Lord.
The Lord and even one man can Jead
a bost of people In the right direction.
Think of the worldwide testimony to
the God of Daniel by the faithfolness
of himself and his three friends. See
Chron. xvi, 9, and desire above alt
things a whole heart for Him.
‘The next lesson verses tell of the
death and burial of Joshua, and these
three verses (7-9) are identical with
Josh. xxiv. 2931. When the Spirit re-
peats words Te thus asks special ate
tention to them. The words that man
cially hold me are “Joshua the servant
of the Lord” and “The people served
the Lori” and make me wish to appro-
priate more fully the beantifal beart
words “Whose { am and whqm I serve”
{Acts xxvil, 23). Joshua ends with the
burial of two other bodies, those of
Joseph after so long 2 time and Elea-
gar, the son of Aaron.
Bodies are buried. but people go on
“ving better swithout them (if redeem-
ed) until the time-of the resurrection
bodies. How pitiful to read of “a gen:
eration which knew not the Lord”
(verse 10), and they the descendants of
@ people for whom the Lord wrought
es He had never wrought for any other
nation! They forsook the Lord God
of thelr fathers, did evil in His sight
and worsblped the idols of the nations
which should have been destroyed by
tuhém, for the Lord had sald, “Thou
shalt make no covenant with them nor
shew mercy unto them, * * * for thou
art an holy people unto the Lord thy
God, * ° * a special people unto Him-
self above all people that are upon the
face of the earth” (Deut. vil 2-6).
Such sowing brings sad reaping ac-
cording to lesson verses 14, 15; chapter
if, 5-8, 12, 13, and records in chapters
following of similar turnings away
from God.
<A very odd thumbs and toes story of
sowing and reaping is found in chapter
1, 6, 7. The principle always stands,
“Whatsoever a man soweth that shall
he also reap” (Gal. yi, 7). Nevertheless
the Lord ralsed up judges, who deliv-
ered them, for the Lord was with the
judge (verses 16, 18; chupter ill, 9, 15).
We shonld think that the Lord would
grow weary of forgiving and delivering
a people whom He knew would after a
ume commit the same sins again. but
He is the same Lord who told Peter
to forgive until seventy times seven,
or until the end of Daniel's seventy-
sevens, which means the coming of the
kingdom.
They would not hearken onto their
judges; they turned quickly out of the
Longheaded. ‘
Speaking of a miin whu bad a repnta-
tion for long headednexs, an tutinate
said: “He reminds me of the tittle boy
Who entered the farmer's truck patch
and, touching a handsume cucumber on
@ vine, said:
“*How much for this?
“Ten cents,” the farmer answered.
"lt don't want tu pas more than
about 2 cents.” sald the buy.
“Well, bere’s one fur that price,
said the farmer, and be Hfted up a
very small cucumber that grew beside
the biz one!
“‘All mght I'll take her, suld the
boy. ‘But don’t cut her off now. I'll
call for ber in two weeks’ time’ ”—

East Indian Infantry.
4 captain fn ap Indian infantry resi
ment is Known to bis men as a “snha
dar.” and the nest man below him is
called a “jemadar.” Must of the ott
vers and noncommissioned otticers have
names that finish with “dar.” fur a
sergeant is a “havildar.” A corporal.
however, is called a “nail.” while the
private is a “sepoy.” The only infan
try reximents in which private sol
dlers are not known as “sepoys” are
the Ghurka regiments. A Ghurka pri.
vate fs distinguished as a riflenan.
In the cavalry a trooper or private 1s
called a “sowar,” a sergeant Js a “duf
fadar” and a captain a “risaldar™
Other ranks are similar to those in the
infantry.—London Answers.
A Word For the Tightwad.
In France they have an expressive
pbrase—“liquid money.” It means that
part of the family income which ts
used for the necessaries and tuxurtes of
life. It 's quite apart from and kept
apart from the more serious, substan-
tial part of the income, which is the
saved part. In America the entire tn-
come fs “liquid,” and the man who at-
tempts to make part of it solid is called
a “tightwad” A “tightwad” fs really
& man who creates a principal—a cap
ital, In other words—and he ts the liv-
ing example of what every private
business must be and of how the coun-
try’s resources should be handled—Ar
gonant. = *
Why Fish Are Brain Food.
‘The two vacationers had tished an
hour without a nibble to reward them
for thelr patience, -
“At a time like this.” said the frst
man, “old Izaak Walton would have
indulged in philosophy. Have you any-
thing philosophical on your mind that
you might work off just now to relieve
the monotony?”
“Nothing but this,” reptied the other
man. “I suppose it is by refusing te
bite and compelling fishermen to phi
losophize that fish get the reputation
of being brain food.”—Newark News.
Taste Differs In-Giris and Boys,
Girls have more sensitive taste for
Ditter flavors than boys, and boys
have a more sensitive taste for sweet
favors than girls, according to Dr. G.
Cobn, author of a book on “Organic
Flavoring Materials,” published in Ber
Mn. The taste of boys and girls for
saltiness is equal Among adults wo-
man has a taste for sweet, bitter and
sour that is more highly .developed
than that of man For salty things
there is little difference, man. if any-
thing, being slight!y more sensitive
than woman.
Not Self Sacrificing.
“Don't you think two can live as
cheaply as one?" asked the poor young
man. :
“I've often beard so.” ‘answered the
prodent girl. “but 1 shouldn't care to
pursue the study of social economy at
the risk of going without a full com-
plement of meals.”—Birmingham Age-
Herald.
Mer Love Songs.
The “Sonnets of the Portuguese,”
which were written by Elizabeth Bar-
rett Browning, were never intended
for publication, but when she showed
them to Mr. Browning, whom she had
married after they were written, be
realized the fact that in them was
sung the most perfect love song the
world had ever heard, and he conclud-
ed such poems should not be hidden.
Mrs. Browning was unwilling to pub-
Msh them in her own name, and as he
was fond of calling her his “Little Por-
tuguese,” it was flecided to have them
appear under this name. They are
Petrarchian in form and among the
most beautifal of the language.
An Old Time Recipe.
Some advice to secure health and
jongevity !s found in an old and uni-
dentified print: First, take advice from
none; consult only yourself; second,
take your digestion into your conf-
dence and place yourself at its dis-
posal, listening to uo suggestion’ from
your palate, which is greedy and self-
ish; third, avofd all books on diet and
sleep in 2 room with the windows
open, and, fourth, take a cheerful view
of your surroundings and allow as Lt
tle as possible tu disturb your serenity.

Microbes Thrive In Salt,
It is a mistake to suppose that salt
used as a preservative is fatal to ml-
crobes, for the bacilll of typhus, toher
culosis and several other diseases
‘thrive all the better when placed in
brine. Blood contains much salt, and
this does not prevent microbes from
multiplying in {t Dr. Rappin of the
Nantes Pasteur institute counted 30,000
bacteria per cubic centimeter in the
concentrated brine used for salting
fish. Preservatives and bacteriches are
Qifferent things. Salt preserves from
decay, but kite no microbes,

C&ristmas Sermon im Words of
One Syllable
Continued from first page)
was fafa” “Just think what aN this
means—God made flesh, God born as
tan in this world of ours, that ho
might find a way to bring back man to
Ged! He bid bis might, and men hid
their face from him, None but the
herds who kept their sheep saw or
knew of it till they fell te the ground
fm a great blaze of light,,and # host of
brisht ones In the sky sang such a
song as no choir on earth has sung,
which gave praise to Ged on high.
“and on earth peace, good will to men.”
Those herds had faith to go and seek
the child of whom they were told. They
found him in the erlb, and they saw
more than their eyes could see. They
knew that in that weak child was the
power of God to save. And so these
good men, when they had bow'd down.
went back to their flock, struck with
awe, and “gave praise to God for all
they ad beard and seen.”
Shall we do less? Shall we not, too,
fo home and give thanks on our part,
with joy for what we have heard? And
in all our joy fet us find room for the
one guest Who should not be left out—
room in our hearts for him whose word
ia life.
