League to Hold Series of Public Meetings During Year—Membership Steadily Increasing. The first of a series of public meetings to be held this year by the local branch of the National Business League will take place on next Thursday night at the First Bryan Baptist Church. An interesting program has been arranged for the occasion and it is expected that a large crowd will be out. The local branch of the National Negro Business League has done much to place Negro business in this city before the public in a proper light and the several public meetings of the league last year proved very beneficial to Negro enterprises. The league recognizes fully the importance of keeping the Negro business man's cause properly to the front, and it is their plan to make the public meetings this year interesting and a source of benefit to both the public and the Negro business men. The league's enrollment includes practically every well known Negro business man in the community and it is steadily being increased by new members. The meeting Thursday night is free and it is hoped that all of the members of the league and the public in general will be out in large numbers. The principal address will be by the Rev. J.A. Martin, pastor of St. Paul church, who has been an ardent advocate of the Negro business enterprises since being in this city. The following program will be rendered: Music.....By Choir Invocation...Rev. Daniel Wright Introductory remarks.....A. B. Singfield, president Singfield, president: Paper.....J. S. Perry Solo.....Mrs. Rosa E. Stevens Ten minutes address.....G. H. Bowen. Ten minutes address.....J. C. Lindsay. Lindsay. Music.....By Choir Paper.....Miss Ada L.

Good Samaritan Meeting The local division of the Independent Order of Good Samaritans and Daughters of Samaria will hold a meeting at Burroughs, Ga., on tomorrow (Sunday) at Mt. Olive Baptist church. The meeting will be called at 10 o'clock in the morning and will be presided over by G. H. Stokes, D. G. C. The welcome address will be delivered by Mayor Legree; and the oration by Dr. B. W. S. Danfields. A large crowd will probably go to Burroughs for the meeting. THE FARMING HOUSE THE FIRST NEGRO BAPTIST CHURCH ESTABLISHED IN AMERICA Urban League Headquarters.

Powell of Abysinnia-Baptist Church and was witnessed only by a few relatives and close friends. After the ceremony the couple left for a short stay in Philadelphia and will be at home Jan 20th at 13 George street Oswego, N.

Bill Prohibiting Inter- Marriage Bill Prohibiting Inter- Marriage Whites and Negroes Cannot Marry in District Washington, D. C., Jan. 11—A bill prohibiting inter-marriage of whites and Negroes in the District of Columbia was passed by the house to-day, 230 to60. Vigorous debate preceded the vote. Representative Clark of Florida, author of the bill, declared inter-marriage worked harm to both races. Republican Leader Mann and Representative Maden of Illinois opposed the measure. Mr. Mann said it would "leave girls at the mercy of brutes willing to take advantage of them, and then leave them" to a life of shame." Representative Clark told the house that his bill was in the interest of both races, and that if the Negro has a part in the universe he should have it as a member of a distinctive race "and not as a mongrel." "So far as the white race is concerned," said Mr. Clark, "the future of the world is dependent on the preservation of its, integrity. "The Negro ever since his freedom has made great progress and no man or set of men are more glad of it than I and those from the section I represent. These races at the capitol of the country ought to work out their own futures under the laws of the country as best they can." Representative Madden opposed the bill on the ground that it would encourage immorality. "I am opposed to such marriages," said he. "The Negroes are opposed to such marriages, but I am opposed to legislation making such marriages a crime. If a white man and a black woman want to marry it should be a matter for them to decide." Republican Leader sought to have the bill sent back to committee, but the house refused to do that by a vote of 202 to 89. Mechanics Bank Elects Officers. At a meeting Monday afternoon of the stockholders of the Mechanics Savings Bank the annual election of officers was held.

Industrial and Higher Education Needed Industrial and Higher Education Needed Must Be Well Prepared for Higher Callings The war-drum beats no longer. The battle flag has been furled. The merry war between the perfervid advocates of industrial and higher education of the Negro has ended. The irreconcilables have become reconciled and would fain forget the folly of their former frenzy. Some dozen or so years ago, the writer appeared before a Boston audience, and presented two briefs, pointing out the relative sphere and function of the two types of education in the general scheme of racial uplift. I stated that there was no just ground for conflict or controversy between the advocates and promoters of industrial and higher education, but that they were both complementary factors of common product; that Hampton and Howard, Fisk and Tuskegee should live on terms of good neighborhood and cheerful co-operation, as coworkers in the same vineyard of service; and that the relative importance of the two types of education was merely a matter of ratio and proportion, and should never be made an issue of fundamental controversy. It is interesting now to recall the vials of righteous wrath that poured upon my defenseless head because of this judicious attitude. How I, a professor in the leading institution of the higher learning, could advocate, excuse or justify industrial training, was more than the bepuzzled understanding of the overzealous belligerents could comprehend. Of course, such terms as "coward," "straddler," "trimmer" and even "traitor," were freely applied. The free and limited indulgence in denunciation and epithet is a very present help to those who are burdened with a plethora of passion and paucity of logic. It is so much easier to call names than to answer arguments, that the impassioned controversalists are prone to assume omnicience without taking the pains to acquire intelligence. They indulge in all sorts of extravagant assertions and verbal maledictions as to the fate of the higher education and the doom of the Colored race. We were told, with all the assurance of infallible dogma, that the triumph of Hampton meant the downfall of Howard, and that if Tuskegee succeeded Fisk must fail. On the other hand, the industrial advocates were resorting to ridicule and irony, the easiest avenues of approach to the interest and attention of the unthinking and unsympathetic. The devotees of the higher education were called impractical doctrinaires who, with fatuous philosophy, were leading their race away from the field of actual opportunity into the fairy-like domain of important culture. I have recently had occasion (Continued on last page) Annual Meeting of the First Congregational Church. The annual meeting of the First Congregational Church took place on Wednesday night last. It was attended by a larger number of members than ever before. Each department of the church rendered glowing reports revieving the work of the year, which proved that the members have been very active. Especially gratifying was the financial report, and last but not least were those of the women and men's organizations. The trustees being alive to the needs of progressive churches, recommender the purchasing of additional property in order that the church may engage in greater activities along the line of social work. They met a responsive chord, the members approving the same without a negative vote. The members are entering this movement with a great deal of enthusiasm, which means quite a forward movement for this church. When this plan is consumed it will place the church among the more progressive ones, especially those doing uplift work. Plans for the year's work were presented, and they will keep the members actively engaged. Quite gratifying was the report of the attendance at the services during the year, and endeavors will made to attract larger numbers. After the meeting a social hour was spent until 11 o'clock, and each member vied with the other in speaking about the progress of the church, the fine spirit exhibited at the meeting and the plans for future work. Kemper Harreld, Violinist, Will Appear in Savannah. Mr. Kemper Harrel, of Moorehouse College Atlanta, will favor Savannah with a program Friday night. January 29th, at St. Paul's Church, West Broad and Maple streets. Mr. Harreld will come under the auspices of the allied charities, the Old Folks Home, Urban League, Business League and Charity Hospital. Mr. Harreld's success on the violin has been marked. Possessing rear ability he has applied himself with unusual accomplishments. Mr. Harreld was in Europe when the present war began returning to this country in the early fall. Mr. Harreld received the praise of European masters, and his appearances in this country have been marked with artistic skill and favor. Next week's Tribune will give final information. Dr. Jacobs at Asbury Dr. Charles C. Jacobs, of Sumter, S. C., field secretary of Sunday schools of the Methodist Episcopal Church, will speak at Asbury M. E. church at 3:30 o'clock, tomorrow afternoon and will preach at the evening service 8 o'clock. Dr. Jacobs is a forceful speaker and it is expected that a large crowd will be out to hear him both afternoon and evening. 10 M. The Late Deacon B. H. Maxwell NUMBER 17 TWO CHURCHES HOLD ANNIVERSARY TWO CHURCHES HOLD ANNIVERSARY ONE HUNDRED TWENTY- SEVEN YEARS OLD. First Bryan Baptist and. First African Baptist Churches Oldest Negro Churches in America. Among the Negro-Baptists of the country, the Negroes of this city occupy a unique position, as it was here, on the spot where the First Bryan Baptist Church now stands, that the First Baptist Church organized among Negroes in America was erected. This church, known as the Old Jerusalem Baptist Church and established on the 20th of January in the year 1788, by Andrew Bryan, who became its pastor and after whom the church was subsequently named, was the first edifice built by Negro Baptists was for years an object of much interest to Negroes in this section. The two churches whose 127th anniversary celebrations take place this week are both an outgrowth of the Old Jerusalem Baptist Church and their histories have been so intertwined that the early periods of both of them show that the first two pastors of each church Rev. Andrew Bryan and Rev Andrew Marshall The pastors of the First Bryan Baptist Church have been eleven in number and the time served as follows: Rev. Bryan, 24 years; Rev. Marshall, 17 years; Rev. Thomas Anderson, 2 years; Rev. Stephen McQueen, 5 years; Rev. John B. Deveaux, 2 years; Rev. Isaac Roberts, 3 years; Rev. Bristow Lawton, 1 year; Rev. Garrison Frazier, 7 years; Rev. U. L. Houston, 26 years; Rev. G. W. Griffin, 18 years; Rev. Daniel Wright, present pastor, 7 years. The pastors of the First African Baptist Church have been seven in number, the time served by each being: Rev. Andrew Bryan, 24 years; Rev. Andrew Marshall, 54 years; Rev. Wm. J. Campbell, 20 years; Rev. E. K. Love, 15 years; Rev. J. W. Care, 6 years; Rev. W. L. Jones, 4 years. The celebration of the First African Baptist Church will begin on Sunday and will end the following Thursday night with a banquet. Rev. T. Jefferson Goodall of Jackson, Tenn., will be in the city for the celebration and will preach the anniversary sermon. The First Bryan Baptist Church began celebrating its 127th year last Wednesday night and will bring the celebration to a close Thursday night at which time a banquet will be given at the church. Members and friends of the Y. W. C. A. enjoyed a very timely lecture on last Sunday by Rev. I. J. Wynchester. The association will meet at St. Philips Church on next Sunday also.

If so, it is necessary that you let it shine. It may be a light from the tiniest star but its radiance will be felt We shine the greatest when we are doing our duty and fulfilling our appointed work in carrying forward the teachings of O. E. S. We cannot be too particular how we dress our minds for their day's activities on the outer plane and for the night's activities on the inner plane of consciousness. We stand on the seashore and cast pebbles into the clear expanse of water. We see the surface rippled by waves widening and widening until the eye could no more follow them, just so, we stand on the shore of O. E. S. We cast into it may be a smile, a pleasant word, a kind deed and thereby set in motion waves of good influence that widen and extend far beyond our knowledge, where we will never be. Then, my sisters and brothers, how careful we should be of what we send out from our order. Let us fling into this flowing stream the best we have. In the economy of life nothing is lost or ceases to exert its influence. If we could realize that just as the reading matter of a book is divided into chapters, just so our work in O. E. S. is apt to be, and is composed of chapters of interest, enthusiasm, zeal, love, labor, usefulness; service and devotion of varying lengths, just as the chapters of a book vary in number and length. Many of us need a synopsis to carry us along and keep us in connection with each chapter "lest we forget" and may be forgotten. Our work will find the way, as surely as upland waters hunt their way to the sea. We may proclaim beautiful and inspiring theories, but unless we practice them they are worthless. We should weigh well our advantages study without being egotistic and understand the ways and means that we may protect and add strength to the order. The lectures give us food for thought but a lesson is never learned until the ideas have been used and impressed deeply into the brain cells. We must punctuate deep, study long and earnestly to get the hidden beauty of our O. E. S. lectures. They cultivate the heart, control the brain and expand the soul of every member who vitally believes in them Enthusiasm is a power of inestimable value, the lack of it in our chapters and among our members is the key to non-attendance and the reason that we do not add more to our membership. Don't forget the hearty handshake, the friendly manner, the kindly speech, it helps wonderfully. "I know not what another year May bring to me; A life all sombered o'er and dear Or full of cheer. Hoping, trusting, I'll watch and wait, To see revealed What's writ within the Book of Fate. When'er unsealed I may be called across the bear, As yet unseen. Or some bitter grief to share— Some anguish keen. What e'er my lot, I'll not repine, For well I know Some angel hand is holding mine Where'er I go. The Cable Tow. Albert Churchward in his book, "The Signs and Symbols of Pimordial Man": "How many of our fraternity know the real import and meaning of the Cable Tow? Originally it was a chain or rope of some kind, worn by the I., or those about to be initiated to big- nify their belief in God and their dependence on Him, and their solemn obligation to submit and devote themselves to His will and service, and the fact that he is neither naked or clothed is an emblem that he is untutioed—a mere child of nature—unregenerated, and destitute of any knowledge of the true God as well as being destitute of the comforts of life. This is the state in which we find all candidates. The chain was used by the Druids and Egyptian as a symbol, as stated above. Also that he was being led from darkness into light from ignorance to knowledge of the one true and living God, Creator and Judge of all. "That the rope appears around the neck of more than one in these picture scenes—seven in some—is only a symbol of the seven powers—as, 'the seven ropes,' and each of the wearers of these represents one of the seven powers or attributes of Horus I. in their sacredotal duties. Originally it was one only which was associated with Horus in the spirit. Horus, having been led or passed through dangers, difficulties, darkness and death in the underworld, emerges as Amsu, the first man-God, and attached to his crown of two feathers—denoting the two lives, earthly and spiritual—in this cable tow or rope, as a symbol that it is 'a power' which has led him, through from earthly to spiritual life." Beauty is truth, truth beauty—that is all we know on earth, and all we need to know.—Keats. We sometimes wonder if somebody has not added a new tenet to the Masonic list: "Kick the brother who happens to be down." This was not in our Masonic milk bottle when we were deriving our nourishment in the fraternity and at the present time it sours our stomach. But some brethren seem to thrive on the adage and grow fat.—Tyler-Keystone. A Half Century of American Progress.

Many new barns are being built in the rural districts of Georgia. in the rural districts of Georgia. Building material dealers in all sections of the State report an unprecedented demand for barn lumber and red paint. Next to the home, the barn is the most important building on the farm and wherever red barns exist there frugality and prosperity abide supreme. The rapid construction of new barns in Georgia is lifting the farming industry of this state into a higher zone of utility and is establishing a new era in our industrial progress. No community can proceed far into its agricultural economy until its stock are well sheltered and its crops are properly housed. By T. N. Carver It is not the hard work or the exposure or even the poverty of the farmer or his wife -which makes farm life so unattractive to so many of our peojple. It is the lack of team work. I have never known men and women, particularly young men and young women, to shrink from hardship if they could feel the touch of elbows and the sense of comradship which the soldier has. Our boys and girls as well as the men and women of the farm should develop team work. They should get together and work together for some common cause as the soldier. Touch elbows with your neighbors, and get the sense of comradship, as soldiers do. Organize farmers' clubs, not merely for the sake of having clubs, but for the sake of team work, for the sake of accomplishing something for the building up of the rural community, for the study of the problems of your community. People seldom get together by merely saying, "Go to it now, let us be united." They are more likely to get together when they-tackle a hard job which they think important, and then begin working on that job. After they have been working together for a while they find that they are thinking together and are developing the feeling of comradship. The Panama Pacific Exposition. The Panama Pacific Exposition at San Francisco next year will celebrate the greatest commercial event that the world has ever known and nearly every nation of the globe will take part in the exercises. Something over two hundred million dollars is being expended in constructing buildings and gathering exhibits and twenty million people are expected to participate in the celebration. Georgia, ablaze with the fire of agricultural achievement and her future bowed down with possibilities, should mount the rostrum at Frisco and tell the world of her advantages. There is no expression more powerful than a comprehensive display of farm and factory products and no other phrase known in language of the soil will do justice to the subject.

BURKE City Editor Published Every Saturday 1009 WEST BROAD STREET Phone 2171 Remittance must be made by Express or Post Office Money Order, or Registered Letter Advertising Rates given on Application. Entered at the Post Office at Savannah, Georgia, as Second class Mail Matter. A sign, which augurs additional thrift and economy as well as increased confidence in Negro business enterprises, on the part of our people, is the recent celerity of action which characterized them in taking advantage of the Christmas club opened by the Wage Earners bank, the leading Negro banking institution in the state and the second largest in the country. To note this, is indeed gratifying to all of us who welcome any sign of additional race pride on the part of our people or increased appreciation on their part, of our men of effort. That Savannah can now boast of several substantial business institutions, is a fact which resists successful disputation. And among these stalwart institutions there is none which is deserving of greater praise for the progress made, than this bank whose latest plan, the organization of a Christmas club, has met with such success that already over six hundred persons are being assisted by it to save for the coming Yuletide season. Since the organization of this bank in 1900, it has made rapid strides in the world of finance. Handicapped as it was in the beginning by skepticism, justly earned in some instances, of our people in regard to Negro financial institutions, the officers of the Wage Earners no doubt had an uphill fight in convincing our people that money entrusted to Negroes was just as safe as money entrusted to any other people. However by judicious, economical and scientific management, they have been able within a comparatively short time to convince our people that there is as much merit and honesty under the color of a black skin as under that of any other hue, as the half thousand and more members of the Christmas club and the six thousand odd regular deposition very impressively attest. If there is any action of note taken by the great Tuskegeean, in behalf of his people, which is deserving of their most unqualified and unreserved approval, it is his most recent and fearless stand against the Reed immigration bill which proposes to exclude members of the African race from further immigration to the United States. In a telegram anent the proposed immigration bill to Dr. Geo. E. Cannon of New Jersey, president of the Committee of One Hundred, an organization which has done no little toward championing the cause of the black people of this country, Dr. Washington says: "The immigration bill has an amendment which prohibits all people of African descent from entering the United States in the future. The final enactment of such a law is unnecessary, unjust and unreasonable. Not the least injustice is the fact that only a comparatively few black people enter this country each year, and that the law classes our race with original aliens. The passage of such a law will exclude not only persons from Africa but the West India islands, including the Republics of Hayti, San Domingo and Cuba. Without the services of the West India Negroes in digging the Panama canal it could hardly have been completed in such a satisfactory and complete way. Now that the canal is completed it is unjust to prohibit the Colored people who have been so largely instrumental in building it, from entering this country even when they meet the strict requirements of our immigration laws. The whole matter seems an unnecessary and unfair slap at the Colored people, the bulk of whom are in the south. I have discovered no sentiment among the white people in favor of this law. It is not a sectional nor a political question, and I am urging you to use all the influence you can throughout Negro business leagues, Colored newspapers and various civic organizations that you can reach to bring about the defeat of this unjust measure. I hope you will also communicate with your senators and representatives." A hearty perusal of the above shows that Dr. Washington comes right to the point in his opposition and denunciation of the Reed bill which not only seeks to classify our people as original aliens, as Dr. Washington so plainly puts it, but to keep them without the United States for no other reason than that they are Negroes. And this in spite of the fact that persons of African descent have furnished their full quota of strength to the country in every movement of this country, whether in war or in peace, which has had to do with the welfare or protection of this country since its foundation. The defeat of the bill in congress this week was indeed very gratifying to persons of African descent and to all lovers of justice. Negro BusinessLeague Weekly Letter (By J. C. Lindsay) In these days of struggles and strivings, of planning and acting, the Negro business man is being tried by his competitors as never before. Our business competitors as well as our patrons expect every man and woman of us engaged in business to look our competitors squarely in the face and meet them in a business way right square on the spot. Must be played to a finish. The Negro business man must convince even those who dislike him that he knows the business game and is in it to stay until the game is entirely over. No man admires a quitter. Many trained men in their line. One of the greatest assets that the race can point to with pardonable pride, is the number of business men of which it can boast in this day and time, who have made their particular line a study. Many of our men engaged in their particular lines would be a credit not only to the members of the race to which they are a part but would add prestige and give zeal to business men of other races. In the majority of cases that boy who has been made to understand that he had some-one to care for his wants and needs—work or play—has grown up in the world expecting that in some mysterious way something would come happen, and that all at once he would come in possession of a fortune without any effort on his part. Not so with the boy who was trained to stem the tide and fly his kite against the bracing winds: to make sacrifices, to get a job and stick to it, to give his employer an honest day's work for an honest dollar and making the most careful note every detail of the business with the cherished hopes and fixed plans to get out in the world some day to engage in business on his own account. Such hopes, such fixed purposes of "stick-tu-i-tive-ness" come only to that boy or that man who, at some time, somewhere found it absolutely necessary to stem the tide and scale the rough hills of difficulties. Opportunities for honest business men There is no city in all of this southland which affords the upright, painstaking business man a better opportunity to do a prosperous business than the South's Forest City, Savannah. Any man who will come to Savannah to engage in business and convince the Savannahians that he possesses the proper qualities will be received by them with open arms and will be given every consideration commensurate with his ability to impress them with his worthiness. In other words, every Negro business man in coming to Savannah, gets exactly what he makes himself fit to receive. Vision Must be Broadened. During this year of grace, 1915, let each and every one of us decide that we are going to do business with each other as far as practicable. If there have been any personal differences which have kept us from at least giving a portion of our business to our own men and women engaged in business, let us make it up in our minds to forget about them, and make this year the banner year, so far as it concerns the Negroes engaged in business, that Savannah has ever known. Some Startling Figures. Those who,are really interested in the material progress which is being made by our own business men in our home town, will do well, to read the Negro business men's weekly letter next week. We are planning to give a few facts and figures which should prove very interesting, indeed. Come early to the next meeting which will be held at the First Bryan Baptist Church, Thursday evening, January 21st. Deaths An Old Citizen Passes Away.. On Mondy morning at 2:30 o'clqck, Mrs. Celia Scarborough died at her late residence, corner of Pine and Ann streets after being confined to her bed for about two weeks. She was seventy years old and a native of this city The news of her death was received by the community with much regret, for her pleasing disposition and her kind and tender hearted feelings had won for her many friends. In the vicinity where she was born and reared, and lived up to the time of her death, she had done many charitable acts for the less fortunate ones and her death will be keenly felt by them. Although the most of her life was spent in caring for her home and those near around her, yet she was well-known and beloved by the old residents and many of the younger set, which was plainly evidenced at the funeral which took place on last Wednesday afternoon from St. Benedict's Church, by the large number that attended the service and by the many beautiful floral designs given. She was indeed a loving wife and a devoted mother. She is survived by a husband, Mr. Joseph Scarborough, a son, Mr. Joseph A. Scarborough, a daughter, Mrs. Catherine Scarborough Hazzard, and a sister, Miss Isabella Batey. Mr. Benjamin H. Maxwell who died Monday at 11:50 a. m. at his home, 438 Wilson street, was a native of this city and was in his ninth year. He was placed on the deacon staff of the First African Baptist Church during the pastorate of the late Rev. E. K. Love, about 21 years ago, and served under the pastorates of Rev. J. W. Carr and Rev. Jones. He was chairman of the deacons' board and a trustee of Central City College, Macon, Ga., at the time of his death, also a life member of the National Baptist Convention and was one of the foremost figures in the church. He was an exemplary type of a christian and possessed excellent executive ability that well fited him for his office. He was devoted to his church and made many sacrifices for its welfare. He was loved by the entire church because of his devotion. He is survived by a wife, Mrs. Hattie Maxwell, other relatives and a host of friends. His funeral will take place from the church tomorrow (Sunday) at 2:00 o'clock p. m. Rev. John Williams of Brunswick, Ga., will officiate, assisted by Rev. J. K. B. Butler and Rev. T. Jefferson Goodall of Jackson, Tenn. He was a member of Armour Lodge, Odd Fellows, the Uniform Rank of Patriarchy and P. G. M. Council who will probably attend the funeral in a body. Mrs Eliza Edwards after illness of about three months died at her residence, 519 Harris street east, Monday morning Dec. 28th The funeral took place from St. Stephen's Episcopal Church of which she was a member, on the following Wednesday afternoon at 3 o'clock. Mrs. Edwards was well known and had many friends quite a number of whom attended the funeral. She is suvived by two children, Mrs. Anna Lewis and Mrs. Julia Butler, two grand children and other relatives. Mrs. Betsy Baker of 2305 Harden street, died last Saturday morning, early and was buried Sunday morning from the house. Mrs. Baker was about 87 years old and resided with Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Burton for many years. She was sick for about six months. She is survived by two daughters, Mrs. G. O. Freeman and Frances Garrett; and five grand daughters among them being Mrs. J. T. Burton, Mrs. Louisa Garrett and Mrs. Ophelia Freeman. Mr. Henry C. Holmes died on Tuesday of last week at his late residence, 613 Bolton street west. He had been sick for quite a while and his family and friends had hoped that he might recover and be himself once more. Everything possible was done for his comfort that loving hands could do, but to no avail. He was buried from St. Augustine Episcopal Church on Thursday afternoon. He is survived by two daughters, Misses Eloise, Nina and one son, Mr. Henry C. Holmes, Jr. Farm Facts. By Peter Radford. Give the agriculturist ample working capital and you increase the national stability. The world is one great corporation of which the farmers are the largest shareholders. The farmers can never hope to become a factor in public affairs unless they work through organized channels. The average farm yields a net income on the investment of 4 per cent and the average business 10 to 30 per cent. The selfish days of the independent farmer are rapidly passing and we are beginning to catch the vision and share the profits of organized efforts. The problem of organizing and systematizing agriculture is one which the farmers invite assistance of all lines of industry friendly to their interests. The Signs of the Time The signs of the time show numistakable evidences of greater responsibilities which as Colored men and women must face and settle, not tomorrow, but today. Every day we hear of positions once held by Colored men but now given to whites. These changes are not made along any particular line, but they begin from the most humble day laborer and extend clear through to the most willed profession. Sympathy, ability nor politics can no longer stem the tide, and as a result the percentage of Negro employment is seriously lowered each year. The Ga. Mutual is doing its part in making up for this deficiency and you can do yours by taking with us some insurance.

Mrs. Eliza Edwards In Memoriam who departed this life January 17th, 1911. God in His wise providence has called from this home one who has been constant. With deep sorrow I pour the death of a devoted husband. A benevolent disposition, a noble character and a Christian heart is the memory of his life. I bow in humble submission to the will of the wise almighty God who has called from labor to reward, my dear companion. Sleep on, my dear husband, death had no sting for you when your good work here had been finished, God charged the angel death to bear your spirit gently home. You have left a low world of sorrow and gone to a haven of rest where I'll strive to meet you and our partings shall be no more. F. D. Armstrong, wife. In sad but loving remembrance of our beloved daughter and sister, LAURA WILLIS, Who departed this life Jan. 17th, 1914. Just a year ago today the death angel came and wafted her soul away into that heavenly mansion. Though it seems but yesterday, Oh dear, how we miss you, Though we know that you are at rest, Where no trouble, pain or sorrow, Can now cross your peaceful breast We cannot forget your kind and gentle voice, Your sweet and smiling face, And it gives us consolation, In our saddest hours of grief. Peaceful be thy silent slumber; Peaceful in thy grave so low, Thou no more shall join our number, Thou no more our sorrows know. Yet again we hope to meet you, When the days of life have fled, It will be particularly gratifying to the friends of Mr. John Gordon Dingle to know that he has been recently honored by his schoolmates at Howard University by his being chosen manager of the baseball team for the coming year. Mr. Dingle is a member of the senior class in the arts and science department of Howard University and is very popular among the students.
