W. Sherman Princizal Speakers—Evening One of Real Enjoyment. _The banquet of Wednesday night in the William’s building by the local branch of the Na- tional Negro Business League ‘was one of the most brilliant af- fairs of the kind ever held in this <ity by Negro business men. About one hundred and fifty persons were present, every avail- able scat in the beautifully deco- ytatd banquet hall being taken, The gathering was one of the most representative ever assem- bled here, the business men hav- ing as their guests representa- tives from all of the professions and many of the trades. The affair on the whole was a most enjoyable one and the spirit of the “jolly good fellow” seemed to have taken complete posession of every one present, Prior to the supper, the officers of the league were installed by Rev. J. L. Taylor, rector_of St. Stephen’s Episcopal, Church. They are A. B. Singfield, presi- dent; J. C. Lindsay, vice-presi- dent; W .W. Hill, secretary; and R. A. Harper, treasurer. ‘During the supper which was served in three courses, short addresses were made. G. H. Bo- wen, Dr.-B. W. S. Daniels, W. W. Hill, Prof. Pope, H. T. Single- ton, W. P, Tucker and E. H. Burke spoke.. The _ principal addresses of the evening, how- ever, were made by Dr. J. S. Ross, who has recently come to, this city from Chicago, where he prac- ticed for several years, and Fath- er Boyd, of the Cathedral. Mr. E. W. Sherman responding to the Jatter’s address, delivered a mas- terly piece of oratory and was time and again vociferously ap- plauded. The address of Dr. Ross dealt principally with the economic, commercial and social life of the people of British Guiana, South ‘America, his nativity, and the speaker’s excellent vocabulary and his charming public manner impressed themselves upon his hearers. Fathcr Boyd’s address was directed largely toward the brotherhood of man. He refer- red incidentally to the magnitude of the work of the Roman Catho- lic Church among the colored people. His address was gener- ously received and he was ‘given a great appluase at the conclusion of his remarks. Yafant Daughter of Mr. and Mrs Pharrow Dies. Information was received in the city this week of the death of the infant daughter of Mr. and ‘Mrs. R. E. Pharrow; which oc- curred in Atlanta, Tuesday morn- jug early. The iriterntent was at South View Cémetery, that city, “Wednesday morning. The many friends here of Mr. and Mrs. Pharrow extend to them their heartfelt. sympathy in this hour of bereavement. Kentuckians Eynch White Man. Mayfield, Ky., Feb. 10--Thomas ‘Tinker, a white man, whowas ar- rested on the charge of killing Constable Richard Tart, was taken from the county jail here late fast night and lynched by a “band of fifty or more men who rode here from Melber, where “the constable was killed. Arriving in the town the band went directly to the jail and de- manded that Tinker be given up. Jailer Douplin said he saw the futility of resistance and the men! took Tinker from his cell, hanged him to a tree and riddled his body with bullets. : ‘The shooting of Constable Tart vecurred Monday when he at- tempted to arrest Tinker on a charge of house breaking. AN OPEN LETTER TO THE ODD FELLOWS OF GEORGIA a spirit of revenge, nor ofanimos- ity, for I have no friends to re- ward nor enemies to punish, Neither have I any apology to offer for what I am about to say. « It is my purpose to lay bare the conditions now existing in Geor- gia and with special réference to some of the acts of the Execu- tive Committee since the adjourn- ‘ment of the District Grand Lodge at Savannah in 1913. The Odd Fellows of Georgia are the wealthiest in the country their holdings aggregating more than those of all others combined and of this fact we are proud. The accumulation — of _ this wealth was accomplished through effort and sacrifice on your part, and it will be just as necessary that you should labor to the end that it be kept intact. Prior to and during the District Grand Lodge at Savannah, the complaint was made that your funds were being used dishonest- ly and the feeling was so intense at the Grand Lodge as to require the services of officers of the law to preserve decorum and order. The functions of the Executive Committee are similar to those of,a board of directors of a cor- poration;- this committee is charged with the performance of certain specified duties during the interim between the sessions of the, Grand Lodge, and in the per- formance of these duties is ac- tually the representative of the Grand Lodge. Its power within the limits set down by the law is plenary and there is no appeal from its decission save through the action of the Grand Lodge, the only body to which it is ac- countable. This committee is composed of the District Grand Master, wha is the presiding officer, the Depu- ty District Grand Master, who acts in the absence of the Dis- trict Grand Master, the District Grand _Treasurér, the District Grand Director, who has nothing Ito do but draw his salary; and the District Grand Secretary, who is really the keeper of the records of the Executive Committee. The Executive Committee i$ your agent and as such, is responsi- ble to you for its acts. In like- manner, you are responsible for its acts. It is charged with the guard- janship of your financial affairs; and with the safeguarding of all funds to the end that those de- pendent upon the Order may be protected. In view of these facts, I beg leave to invite your attention to the following: What could be the object of the Executive Committee in_in- creasing the salary of the Dis~ trict Grand Treasurer from $75.00 to $100.06 per month, with $25.00 additional “for expenses each month? ‘ | Why did the committee in- crease the salary of the District |Giand Secretary from $175.00, at which it was placed at Augusta in Jgr11, to$225.00, which increase has never been authorized by the District Grand Lodge? | What reason was there for ap- propriating a salary of $50.00 ‘each per month for the Deputy District Grand Master and the District Grand Director, whereas their predecessors had ' received nothing but their per diem and railroad fare? Why is the District Grand Mas- ter given an increase in salary from $75.00 to $125.00 per month with $30.00 additional for clerk hire, and freedom to charge what he wishes for expenses, with his office in his residence? Why did the Executive Com- mittee appropriate $100.00 out of the District Grand Lodge treas- ury to pay the fee of a lawyer employed by the District Grand Ee ee ee ee ke Se P Pe en ae ee is ay 23 ; eS See sae ; : a a. 5a eee FPS yy AS te ply See ae gt 8 ee? ee: A gs bo ee sve yn RE RIE es CB ges peti n ET A q or. vn Sp seas.

' On tomorrow afternoon at 5 o'clock a joint Lincoln-Douglass birthday celebration will be held by the Yotng Men and Young Women’s Christian Associations at St. Paul C, M. E. Church, West Broad and Maple streets. An interesting program has been arranged for‘the occasion with Rev. J. A. Martin, pastor of St. Paul church, and Rev. J. L. Taylor, rector of St. Stephen's parish, the principal speakers. It is very likely that ar unusually large crowd will be out as both of these institutions though of re- cent orgdnization are very popu- lar and gaining in membership every week. Prof. S.

At eleven o’clock the old veterans gathered'at their hall on the east side, where patriotic talks were made. While their ranks are thinning out the re- maining ores are‘ growing older and weaker, yet their partiotism and martial spirit are as great as ever. | Negro Press Meeting The ‘mid-winter meeting of the National Negro Press Association will be held Friday and Saturday in Nashville, Tenn. Mr HA. Boyd the able corresponding secretary, along with the press gang and citizens of Nashville are planning to make the gathering a memora- ble one. Practical methods will be discussed and action taken to- ward advancing the best interest of the Negro press. This ad- vanced movement is fostered by all of the progressive journals. Chatham Has > A High Record a jJLLITERATES FOUND |346 Ifiterate Negroes Enumerat- ed And 6,613 of School Age | Out of School. . That Chatham County ranks among the foremost in Georgia when it comes to the question of literacy, is the statement of Mr. Otis Ashmore, superintendent of schoals, commenting upon a circular letter which is being sent over.the state by Mr. M. L. Brit- tain, state superintendent of schools, to all superintendents re- [garding ‘illiteracy among the children from the ages of six to eighteen years. “Notwithstanding.that we have a foreign population, as a seaport naturally would, and is a pobul- ous city, Savannah ranks fore- most among the cities of the (United States. The report shows there are only six white children recorded in the census that are illiterate,” said Mr. Ashmore. The figures quoted by Mr: Brittinn are for the year 1913. They show 8,665 white children of school age in Chatham county, with 6 illiterates, and 2,078 child- ren not in school during that year. The number of Negro children of school age for the yéar 1913 is 10,699 with 354 illiterates e- numerated and 6,613 of school age who were not in school. The state superintendent urgés that children be induced to go to school. This is rather unnecessary in Chatham county, which now has a large waiting list especial- ly in the lower grades. | TALLADEGA COLLEGE DEAN TO SPEAK Dr. Brewer will Deliver an Ad- dress at First Congregational Church. Dr, Frank S. Brewer, dean of the theological seminary of Talla- dega College, will arrive in the city today. Tomorrow morn- ing at 11 o'clock, he will preach at the First Congregational church, Taylor and Habersham streets. Dr. Brewer is numbered among the consistent friends of our peo- ple. He isan able and fluent speaker, and it will be a great treat to hear him. It is expected that a very large crowd will be present to enjuy his sermon and [the excellent music of the choir. Interesting Subject a Be Tomorrow Night “What will become of the Devil and all the evil angels” will be the subject of Evangelist J. W. Manns, Sunday night at the S. D. A. Church on 36th street. The public is invited. Good sing- ing from 8:00 to 8:00. No va- cant pews after 8:45. HOWARD MAKES ANOTHER > STEP IN THE FIELD OF ¥ SCIENCE. ihe Department of Physics of Howard | University is making tapid strides in ‘practical scien- tific. work. The department is now equipped with a complete sending and receiving apparatus for wireless tclegraphy. This apparatus is: of the highest quali- ty, and at present is in complete working order. There are other parts, which are to be used for measurements in the radio lab- oratory, yet to be received. Severai instruments are being }constructed in the shop Sf the |Physics Department. These are |made after the design of Profess- jor Colenian and Mr. Hayes of ‘that department, and will add much to the set already secured. All the pieces which are used at present have been accurately standardized by Mr. Hayes, so that the very highest degree of precision of measurement,can he obtained. | At this time nearly all the gov- ernment and commercial stations on the Atlantic Coast have been caught on the wireless set of the University. Mr..Hayes main- tains that he has an invention of a sound intensifier which will ‘make the more distant call more audible. By it, calls from the Pa- cific Coast will be made as clear and loud as calls from_N. A. D. (Boston Navy Yard.) The clocks in the labratory are standard. ized by the official time received daily from the Arlington Station. There is a great deal of interest manifested in the radio work. Mr. Hayes says he is planning a special coursé in the work foy next year. Such a course will be similar in a way to the course |given at New York University 1}-—Howard University Journal.

Johnson on His Way to Juarez a Barbados, British West Indes, Feb, 11.—Jack Johnson, the Ne- gro pugilist, acccompanied by his wife and Frank Bagney, an Aus- tralian boxing partner, sailed yes- terday on the four-masted schoon er Henry Krager for Cienfuegos, Cuba, where he will connect with a special boat which will take him to Tampico, Mex., on his way to Jaurez for his bout with Jess Wil- lard on March 6, While here Johnson was made defendant, in a suit for damages brought by owners of the schoon- er Lillian Blavelt, who contend- ed he had violatétl a contract to charter the vessel.

The bless- ing of the ashes takes place in St. Benedict’s Church on W ednesday nextat 6:30a.m. During Lent special evening services will be held every Wednesday and Fri- day at 8 p,m., and the sermons will be preached by the Rever- end Fathers of Sacred Heart Church.

Stearns. | What a specially great lesson this ts for boys, with something for every ene, young and old. In all Scripture there is q message from the beart of God to each {ndividual heart that reads. It is true always, .as in the last ‘verse of our lesson chapter, that the Lord reveals Himself by His word. ‘Che Scriptures are the revelation of God to man, and the Lord Jesus Christ 1g the Living Word, in whom we see the Father, even as He said, “He that hath seen Me hath seen the Father” (Jobn xiv, 9). Our lesson opens with Samuel ministering unto the Lord. See also ehapter if, 11,18. This is not the word which fs translated to “minister in the Priest's office.” but the word to serve orminister,as when Joshua ministered to Moses (Ex. xxxiti, 11; Josh. 1, 1). Even a child can serve Him who came not to be ministered unto, but to minister (Matt. xx, 28). May we al- ways be able to say from the heart, “Whose I am and whom J serve,” and count it our Lighest privilege to minis- tex unto Him (Acts xxvil, 23; Luke vill, 3; Dan. vi, 1. In the revised ‘version the words “precious” and “open” are in the margin “rare” and “frequent,” and the meaning probably ts that any special message from the Lord was of rare occurrence or it bad been some time since He had spoken. The Immk of Judges ended with every man doiz right in his own eyes {xxi 25), und now EU, the priest of the tabernacle. which was then at Shilob (1, 3; Josh, xvill, 1, 10), was somewhat ont of fel- lowship, for he mistook broken heart- ed, praying Hannah for a drunken wo- man and did not control his own sons, honoring them above God, so that a man of God had to come to him with a reproof and 1 warning (1, 12-16; 1 27-36). Before we consider the call of Samucl 4n our lesson let us look at the circum- stances of his birth. His father, El- Kanab, seems to bave been a devout man, going up from year to year to worship and to sacrifice unto the Lord of bosts in Shiloh (I, 3). But be had two wives, which was contrary, to God's original arrangement and al- ways brought trouble. Hannih, who had no children. was continually taunted by the other, her adversury, provoked sore and made to fret and grieve (i, 4-8). Her refuge was prayer unto the Lord, and He heard ber nd gave ber this son Samuel (1, 10-20). She called him Samuel because she asked God for bim (1. 20, margin), and when she bad weaned him she took him to Shiloh to serve the Lord in the tabernacle with Elf, visiting him from year to year when she went up to worship and taking him a little coat (, 24-98; 11, 18, 19), The Lord abundantly rewarded her for the gift of her firstborn, for He gave her five others, three sons and two daughters (ii, 20, 21). So Samuel grow hefore the Lord ind was tn fa. vor both with the Lord ant alse with suen, and the Lord was wath bin, and si Ismicl knew ther he was esuibtisa- ed to be a propher of the tl ord Gi, 2, 20. How beautifully the Lord aid fess the boy who wax dedicated to Mim even before bis birth. and how xrandly He did reward his mother and cause ber to forget her myers and sing for joy! er soug in chapter ih, 1-10, which is also called a prayer. Is one of the most beautiful on record. Tteturning to our lesson story, we read that one night, or perbaps tow:rd the dawn (verses 2, 3, 15), Samuel Ueard some one call him, aud. suppos- ing It to be EN, he ran to tin, but, on teing assured that Eli hud not called him, he lay down again. The second ine be heard his name and went again to El, but was assured as be Sore. Not untit be beard bis name the third time and for the third time went to Eli with the words “Here am I* did Eli perceive that the Lord was calling the cbild. Then he said to bim, “If you are called again say, ‘Speak, Lord, for thy servant heareth’” For the fourth time the Lord called him and this time mentioned his name twice~ “Samvel, Samuel” ‘I lave found only seven people in the Bible who were thus addressed, and there must be some significance 4n it, whether we can see it or not. Look them up and ponder the circum- stances prayerfully. On ‘hearing this fourth call Samuel replied as EU taught bim, and then the Lord gave to Samuel the solemn meceare for Fit YOUNG BROS., 507 WEST RROAD STREET Is the Home of Sweets. Phone 2932 ‘Dr.G.

Entered at the Post Office at Savannah. Georgia, as Second Class Mail Matter. Saturday February 13th, 1915 The management of the Pekin Theater deserves praise for the great picture it showed during early part of last week of Negro leaders of thought, of business, fraternal societies and the other activities in which the Negro finds himself engaged. Such pictures give not only inspiration and encouragement to the youth of the race but instill within them a great admiration and respect for the men and women of the race who have wrought well. In bringing such a picture to us the Pekin is doing an educational work of some consequence, which the community appreciates. If there ever was a movement started which should receive the support and encouragement of the Negroes generally throughout the country, and particularly in the South, it is the one which proposes the holding of "health week, March 21st. to 27th. The movement had its inception in the executive board of the National Negro Business League, and Dr. Booker T. Washington and those associated with him on the board are doing all in their power to impress upon the Negroes of the country the necessity of giving the movement their assistance. The future welfare of the race be it commercial, spiritual, economic, social or what not, depends on the health of individual members of the race. If we are prone to sickness and to spend our time, money and energy in doctor's bills and in buying drugs of varying degrees of efficacy, then the vitality which we should use in building up the race commercially, economically and socially will be feeble. Statistics show that the death rate of Negroes is entirely too large, in fact it is positively shocking and the only way that it can be decreased is by a systematic training of the masses of the race in the art of living, such as is the object of Health Week which is being advocatid by the National Negro Business League and the many organizations allied with it in the fight to increase the space of life of the Negro of this country. The Negro by inheritance is endowed with as sound a body as any people on the face of the globe and it is only through ignorance, intemperance of action and unwholesome environments that the mortality of the race has become so alarming. Health Week has as its object the formulating of plans, the giving out of advice and the distribution of such literature as will enable th Negro to stem the alarming death rate which is needlessly taking away so many thousands each year. Savannah Negroes need, but to scan the annual reports of the local health officer to see the wisdom in the "health week" movement and that their every assistance should be given it, cannot be denied. Dr. Washington and those behind "health week" are doing their part in attempting to stay the high mortality among the race and it remains for every Negro, every Negro society, church, fraternity and educational institution to join in the movement and give it their unstinted support. EDITORIAL NOTES. In some quarters the feasibility of calling off the coming session of the Pythian Grand Lodge is being discussed. From an economical standpoint, the calling off would be justified. But stern law is always in the way. Each year our people spend thousands of dollars traveling on the railroads attending various meetings. It would indeed be an interesting matter if sufficient statistics could be gathered in order to show the enormomus amount spent in this direction. And too, the larger per cent. of this money comes from a class of our people who can afford it only at a great sacrifice. Yesterday was observed as the birthday of Abraham Lincoln and that of Frederick Douglass will be tomorrow. Lincoln gave us our freedom and Douglass inspired us with manhood. The memory of both of these illustrious men should be revered and instilled into the minds of our children. Our white friends have several organizations for their children in which patriotic ideas and histories of events dear to them are inculcated, thus perpetuating them. We can gain helpful lessons from this and put them to excellent use. Our youths too, should be taught and inspired with history that means much to us, and the lives of our men who have made good. And too, those fathers who have one or more children in the public schools should be manly enough to pay one dollar a year poll tax for their education. Any father who wilfully fails to do so lacks manhood and the brand of worthlessness should be placed upon him. Georgia, with all thy faults we love thee still, even though our lawless whites lynch us and others take advantage of us in various ways. We believe that all concerned will sooner or later receive their just desert, and eventually Georgia will be as free of such crimes as any other state. In order to reach this period, our best white people should bestir themselves in holding down the thoughtless and lawless ones among them. It has been very acceptably said that the colored newspaper men of the South are the real heroes in the cause of the race. It takes a brave man to remain on the line of battle. Last week in Columbia county, this state, a white man was lynched, accused of committing a crime on a white woman. To be consistent we cannot approve the lynching. What Georgia needs most are braver men as sheriffs of the various counties; men who have a high regard for the oath they make to uphold the law, and who are not afraid of public sentiment in enforcing the same regardless of friends. Brave sheriffs would cause lawlessness to be unknown in this state. In return for all of the taxes paid, directly and indirectly, Georgia gives its colored citizens not a penny for education higher than the grammar schools, and this is not given in a way to help the teeming thousands in the state that can not be accommodated, and many only receiving three months' schooling during the year. In every Congressional district throughout the state, an agricultural school is being maintained for the white boys and girls, besides the State University, technological, and other high and normal schools throughout the state. The colored boy and girl get not a farthing. The state does not even give one penny directly from its treasury for the Georgia State Industrial College. With all of these disadvantages our white friends expect us to make good. Great is the benefit of coming in contact with those o abfal and advanced minds and to hear discussed the popular subjects of the times. The lecture course s the means to this end. This is demonstrated by the many lecturers brought here during the season under the auspices of our white citizens. Is it not possible for us to get together and at least once a month secure an able lecturer? It can be done. Get the saving habit. Spend less for the frills of life and prepare for the time of adversity. Last week we noted the crowded condition of our schools and the dire need of more school buildings, based especially upon the report of Supt, Ashmore, showing that more than 6,000 colored children are without school accommodation. These additional schools are needed, and along with that need, a greater one exists for new buildings for the West Broad Street and, Maple Street schools. By the erection of commodious buildings at these schools hundreds more of our children could be accommodated and at the same time insuring more healthful surroundings for both pupils and teachers. These buildings are totally unfit for school purposes and should be immediately replaced with modern ones. Our white friends will make no mistake whatever in giving them to us, it will be an investment that will greatly repay them. Nor should we forget the miserable housing condition of our people in certain sections of the city. The time is ripe for our city fathers to take hold of this problem and do away with the present hovels and prevent the erection of similar ones. In the meantime our people as far as possible should remove from these crowded sections and secure homes in more desirable localities. The man or woman of our race who does not recognize that we are having hard times, with still harder times coming, is not blessed with much foresight, says the St Luke Herald. The Negro might as well realize his precarious hold upon employment, and that an all consuming economic war is being waged against him, together with all the other civil and political discriminations that are increasing day by day and popping up in many unexpected quarters. It is not only the intention to lynch, jim crow, and disfranchise, but also to starve by the deliberate process of the denial of work. The Negroes should i. addition to the Booker Washington movement—Raise one-more-pig—begin anew, rub out and start fresh the movement of saving just a dollar more than he has been saving, each week and each month. Save a dollar more—and carry it to a Negro bank and deposit it. Save-a dollar more—and you will, have a prop upon which to lean when you grow weak from age. Save-a dollar more—because the more you save, the more you will want to save and the greater will be your ability to help yourself and some one else. During the past year an organization known as the "Silent Brotherhood" has been operating in the interest of white men. There can be no complaint made against this organization if its purpose is sincere and does not militate against any other class of men. It is charged that this organization has been the cause of a number of colored men losing their positions, being replaced by white men. Is this true if it is just? Does it show fairness on the part of those who represent the dominant race? In the city department the places of many colored men have been filled with white men. In the drainage work, especially west of the city, white men were given the preference, but it was soon found that they were not as capable as colored men, and for that reason were discharged. We only want our white friends to deal fairly with us. Do not preach to us the gospel of work and then try to keep us from working. Men's Club. The Men's Club of St. Stephen's Episcopal church will meet at the residence of Mr. A. P. Barnard on Wednesday night, Feb. 17th. NOTES ON RACIAL PROGRESS. Furnished by the National Negro Business League. Dr. Faytte Avery Meeinzie, formerly professor of sociology in the Ohio State University, has been elected president of Fisk University. Two colored men were members of a committee of the Colorado miners which recently appeared with grievances before the officers of the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company. Through the present efforts of Charles Banks, the Bank of Mound Bayou has been organized and placed upon more substantial basis. The Commercial College of Howard University has issued a very interesting booklet on the history and development of Negro banks. Lynchburg (Va.) Opportunity has started a movement for a Negro bank in that city. The Local Business League at Savannah, Georgia, recently held a special Sunday service at the First Bryan Baptist Church, Rev. Daniel Wright, pastor. Printed circulars showing ten reasons why colored people should patronize their own business enterprises were distributed. One of the reasons is as follows: "In and around Savannah, there are more than 40,000 Negroes. We must spend for food more than $200,000 per month. The profit on this enormous amount of business is at least $500,000 annually. By buying our groceries from Negro grocers it would enable them to give employment to nearly 500 men, women, boys and girls at an average salary of $50,000 per month and then leave a balance of $225,000 for other purposes. Discrimination at California Exposition. Tuskegee Institute, Alabama. The office of the Secretary of the National Negro Business League is in receipt of a communication from Mr. J. J. Nashburn, secretary of the local Negro Business League of Oakland, Cali. stating that the Commissioners of the International Exposition to be held in San Francisco during the present year have notified the Local Negro Business League of Oakland and San Francisco that there will not be equal accommodations in San Francisco during the fair, for colored people. The local leagues of those cities have been requested to appoint committees to locate places in San Francisco and Oakland for colored visitors and to notify colored visitors of this condition. The Hotel and Restaurant Association of San Francisco is responsible for this action the Commissioners state The Local Negro Business has made a vigorous protest against these conditions and proposes to give full publicity to this matter before any large number of our people start for California The Farmers' Co-operative Mercantile Company, of Mound Bayou, Mississippi, has just closed the most successful year in its history.

It is true that expenses cannot always be avoided or foreseen. but it is also true that they can be provided for in advance. And the way to do this is to save something every pay day. Then when unexpected expenses arise, when illness occurs, or when employment is gone, you will have the money so urgently needed. The feeling of satisfaction in being able to meet your bills is one that no man of spirit would willingly forego. The best way to save money is to deposit it in a bank.

Services Sundays at 11 a.m. and 8 p.m.; week-day services during Lent, 7:30 a.m. and 4 p.m., except Wednesday and Friday, services at 8 p.m. Ash Wednesday services at 11 a.m. There is an increasing feeling on the part of all thoughtful christians that the spiritual life require seasons set apart especially for meditation, for definate heart-searching, for united prayer, for more systematic bible study and for a larger use of the means of grace. It is generally acknowledged that God's blessing has been vouchsafed in large measures to many who have thus sought in Christ, the deepening and enriching of spiritual life. And not a few have been led from indifferences and worldliness and sin to the Lord Jesus Christ for pardon, peace and service. The season of Lent affords just the opportunity which is re quired for special service and is a clear call to the whole church for self-examination concerning open and secret sins, "repentance towards God," "Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ". May this Lent lead each one of us to a life of entire consecration to God, of ourselves, our souls and bodies. May it be a living sacrifice which St. Paul said is your reasonable, service.

Clarke died at his home, Ways, Ga., Sunday Jan. 31st. He was born March 25, 1850. Rev. Clarke was a conscient Christian and joined the church about fifty years ago. He was ordained about sixteen years ago by Rev. M. Burke. At the time of his death he was pastor of Union Baptist and Pinckey House Baptist Churches, both of Keller, Ga. The funeral services, conducted by Rev. David Boles were very impressive and largely attended. Rev. Clarke left a wife three daughters, four sons, a sister and a host of friends to mourn his death. The Signs of the Time The signs of the time show unmistakable evidences of greater responsibilities which we 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 skilled 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. It will serve for two purposes: first—the one just mentioned; second--as a protection against losses by sickness and death. GA MUTUAL INS. CO., Branch Office—509 W.

In Memoriam Who departed this life February 12th, 1914 As down the vale of life together, We walked in spring and winter weather. Whose kind congenial spirit left us, And went forth in the unknown night. So be it friend! a little while hence, And in the dear, deep dreamless silence, We too shall share thy couch of rest, When we have trod life's pathways dreary. Kind death will take the hands grown weary, And gently fold them o'er the breast, Sleep! while the weary years are flying; While men are born. while men are dying, Sleep on thy curtained couch of sodl Thine be the rest which Christ hath given, Thine be the christian's hope of heaven Thine be the perfect peace of God.

No stronger word has come into our English lan- guage from our Teuton ancestry than this.

The friendship which should pre- vail among Masons is that which seeks to find, in every brother, qualities which are amiable and admirable; the friendship which will wisper words of counsel ir the car of a brother; the fricnd- ship which holds out a hand to assists us over life’s rough and rugged places; the friendship return; the friendship which soothes the fevered brow and smoothes the path which leads down the vale and across the silent stream; this is the friend- ship which, as Masons, we shoul cultivate, even in the strenucus days of the present -century.— Selected. A Good Record Grand Master Kissell made a statement in his annual address to the Grand Lodge of Ohio which will be read with pleasure by ev- ery Mason. He said: “During the last year, or possibly a little more, over 1,800 men have been convicted in Adams county for sclling votes, and these men have been disfranchised, In this same county we have five active lodges Of the 1,800 men who were con- victed, not one is a Mason, and, not a Mason was indicted by the grand jury investigating these cases.” The daily press is so careful to mention the fact that certain per- sons who have been charged with crimes are connected with the Masonic fraternity or the Order of the Eastern Star that the above is commended to its at- tention, in order that may be pub- lished—Masonic Chronicler. + What the World Needs The plain, practical application of the simple truths of Freema- sonry as taught by easily under- stood symbols of the Lodge Rit- ual, is what the warld and Free- Masonry need and the kind of Freemasonry that the “mass of Master Masons” knows is of more value to humanity than the musty volumes ever written by the self appointed advanced thinkers. There is altogether too much stuff being written to impress the Masons of three de- ‘grees, that he is of little. im- portance and that he is dull of comprehension, that the Golden Rule is a pass number in Masonry and that he only is a great Ma- son who can delve in metaphy- sics and in occult sciences ——Se- lected. Be in Peace With all Men. The sentiment of “Peace on earth, good will toward men,” is the corner stone of Masonic character, At the ,commence- ment of the New Year this senti- ment is brought to us special significance when resolves are be- ing proposed for our guidance during the coming year. An important question is, are we in peace with our fellow men, more especially with our breth- ren ii Masonry? If not we should be. Admitting that there are some brethren-who are hard to be in peace with owing to their peculiar temperament and the ap- parent hypocrisy in their “make up,” yet there shold be enough ‘foresight in every brother to rec- ognize that it is well to be in peace with his brethren in the Craft. ° Let our resolve for the coming year be, “Be in peace with all men, more especially with our brethren in Masonry.” If this thought prevades our lives and actions in our every day life, we feel sure that the year 1915 will prove to be a most enjoyable one. —Masonic Sun. Making a Covenant. In my search for light I have discovered the following signifi- cant explanation of the ceremony of making a covenant in the book of Jeremiah, xxxix. 18: After an animal had been selected, his throat was cut across with a sin- gle blow, so as to divide the wind- pipe, arteries, and veins, without touching a bone. The next cere- mony was to tear the breast open and pluck out the heart; and if there was the least sign of imper- fection, the body was considered unclean, The animal was then divided into two parts and placed north and south, that the parties to the covenant might pass be- tween them from east to west, and the carcass was then left as a prey to voracious animals.— Liverpool Freemason. A masonic lodge should resem- ble a bee hive, in which all the members work together with ar- dor for the common good. Ma- sonry is not meant for cold souls and narrow minds, that do not comprehend its lofty mission. Here the anathema against luke- warm souls applies. To comfort misfortune, to popularize knowl- edge, to teach whatever is true and pure in religion and philoso- phy, to accustom men to respect order and the proprieties of life, to point out the way to genuine happiness, to prepare for that for- tunate period, when all the fac- tions of the human family, united by bonds of Toleration and Fra- ternity, shall be but one house- hold; these are the labors that may well excite zeal and enthus- iasm.—Albert Pike. Morehouse College Notes. Atlanta, Ga—A visitor at the morning chapel exercise January 26, of Morehouse College was Dr. Steward of the American Baptist, Louisville, Ky. On the morning of February 3rd, a host of dis- tinguished visitors was at the school. Among the number were Mr. Nabrit of Augusta; Rev. Pinckney of Augusta, Prof. N. W. Reddick, principal of Amcri- cus Institute, Rev. C. H. Robin- son, of Athens, Ga., Rev. John- son, pastor, of First Baptist Church, Athehs, Ga.,. Mr. Tobias, International Secretary of the Y. M. C..A, aml Dr. Condal of Lon- don, England. Many encourag- ing words from each were recciv- ed by the students. The joint course in commercial law, and bisiness ethics between More- house and Atlanta University is already creating a great deal of interest among the young college students and among the business men of the city. The class is conducted by Mr. Weltner of-Col- umbia University law school and meets at Morehouse every Thurs- day evening and at Atlanta Uni- versity every Tuesday. Mr. ‘Trent, secretary of the Y, M.C. A. gave the school a remarkable ad- dress before the Y. M. C. A. Sun- day morning February 7th. Held For Swindling a Cripple Atlanta, Ga, Feb. 8-On a charge of cheating and swindling a crippled Negro out of $1.000 in cash, Albert L.

Against Measures. | Thousands of Severith-day Ad- 'ventists throughout the United States, seeing in measures that have recently been introduced in congress the destruction of the freedom of the press, are engaged in a campaign of circulating peti- ‘tions protesting against these ‘measures. One of these bills, in ‘brief, grants unto the postmaster general the power to exclude from the mail “any scandalous, scurrilous, indecent, or immoral books, pamphlets, pictures, prints, engravings, lithographs, photo- graphs, or other publications which are, or are represented to be, a reflection on any form of re- ligious worship practiced or held sacred by any citizen of the Unit- ed States,” while the other would bar the use of the mail to any per- son or his representative engaged “in the business of publishing any obscene or immoral books, pam- phlets, pictures, prints, engrav- ings, lithographs, photographs, or other publications, matter, or thing of’ an indecent, immoral, scurrilous, or libelous character. “Both of these bills establish a censorship of the press and place in the hands of one man, who is himself notelected by the people, but appointed by an execttive of- ficer, the absolute power to ex- clude from the United States mail any publication’ which in his opin- ion has violated certain provisions without any opportunity of try- ing the case before a properly constituted court.” says Elder J. W. Manns of the local Seventh- day Adventists No. 2, 36th and Burroughs streets, He contin- ues: + “By the power thus conferred, the postmaster general could for- ever excluded from the mails any publication, even the Metropoli- tan Daily, which contains in one issue an article which might be classed as ‘indecent, immoral, scur rilous, or libelous,’ or which re- flected on ‘any form of religious worship praccticed or held sacred by any citizen of the United States.’ Such control of the prss is arbitrary and tyrannical, and is most far-reaching in its effects, and would bring disaster upon the country. “We are not defending the use of the mails for the transmission of publications ‘of an indecent, immoral, scurrilous, or libelous character’. Neither do we ap- prove of the use of language of this description in any way what- ever, but we most decidedly dis- approve of the method of cor- recting any existing abuse by the enactment of legislation which would absolutely destroy the freedom of the press. “A fatal objection to this pro- posed legislation is that it is un constitutional, Provision made for the protection of freedom ‘of the press in the first Amendment to the constitution, which reads: Congress shall make no law*** abridging the freedom of. speech, or of the press. “Any restraint of the freedom here granted.would be destructive of the fundamental principles of a free republic. “The fathers of this republic had before them in the current history of the old world examples and warning as to the unfavorable results which attended restriction of speech and of the press in the discussion of religious qustions, and they, therefore, took good care in preparing the constitution for this new nation, that the right of free discussion of all mat- ters relating to religion shoutd be secured to the people. “These bills give to one man the power to destroy a large and and prosperous business built up by years of earnest labor, without granting to the publisher the op- portunity of exercising that right may have defamed or libeled him. These laws have been?found suf- ficient to meet all reasonable de- mands, and there is no occasion for this proposed legislation. “Each one of our 2,500 local churches in the United States has been stirred to the importance of protesting against these meas- ures, and congressmen from every state are being flooded with petition which have been signed by thousands of persons who are in favor of religious liberty and freedom of press. “The ministers are awakening their congregation as to what these bills would mean should they become laws, and the mem- bers individually are calling upon other church organizations to join in the campaign against the measures.” More Negro Business. Kansas City, Missouri,—The Kansas City Negro Business League did not succeed in secur- ing the anuual meetings of the National Negro Business League for August, 1915, but ot is nevertheless wsnging just as earnestly us it cau forthe 1916 convention. It seemed to be the general sentiment of the Execut- ive Committce at Muskogee, Jast summer that the league should be held in Boston in 1915 and that it should then go to Kansas City for 1916. ‘Lhe Kansas City League is now making plans fur a campaign for more Negro Business in Kansas City, and for closer relations between the business interests and the common people. Instesd of going to the churches the plan is to hold a seriesof ueignborhood meetings fur two weeks with a final wind up at ali churches throughout Kansas City on the samp Sunday. bis final day will be known as ‘‘Negro Business Leayue Day,” and the effort will be made to make it an annual event in Kansus City. Tuskegee Graduate Succeeds in Florida. The following editorial from the ‘lamps, Florida Morning Tri- bune telis of the success ot one of Tyskegee’s graduates who is put- ting into every day practice some of the things which he learned while in school: “The ‘Tribune bas had occasion several times to reler to the good work thatis bemg done by the Negroes of Marion County, which is the centre of a movement on the part of members of that race to set higher standards of useful- ness for their people, At are- cent meeting hetd im this city, under the auspices‘of the Afro- American Civic League, George fl. Mays, Jr., one of the men who is Jeading in this work in Marion County, was the speaker of the occasion and told the Negroes of Tampa how they night juin in the movement and do something for them- selves.” “Mays is himself an example of what a hardworking, intelli; gent and respectable Negro can do with his opportunities. He is a graduate of Tuskegec. taught in schools in the Nerth and is now the head of a banking investment institution at Ocala, organized and managed by Negroes. He believes that the South is the best place for the Negroes and that their future lies in this section of the country. Mays so enjoys the confidence of the white citizens of Ocala that many of them have deposits in his bank. He is always urging the Negroes to strive for industrial indepen- dance and it is dueto him that the Negroes of Marion County have taken account of their op- portunities snd have begun to work toward better ends.” See the War.

The cows should be petted and called by name. They quickly respond to such treatment. If the cows must be let out to drink make a path for them through the snow. It will be money in your pocket. Don't "guess so" or even "think" in feeding or otherwise dealing with your cows. Know; then you are on safe ground. Don't let the dairy herd shiver in the barnyard. Lying on cement is apt to bring lumps on the upper part of the legs of cattle. Either bed deep or plank the cement over. TREAT COWS GENTLY AT MILKING TIME Some cows have a habit of all the time stepping when they are being milked. This is quite annoying to the man who is milking such a cow for the first time, writes E. L. Vincent in the American Cultivator. He is apt to think the cow is going to kick or do something equally troublesome, whereas she is only indulging in this habit of lifting the foot a little. The trouble with a cow that does this began a long time ago, and she probably did it in the beginning because she did not have a milker that made her really comfortable at the time. There are milkers, for example, who never think what it must do to a cow to have one with long finger nails working at her teats. Every time the hand closes those sharp nails are pressed hard against the sensitive teat. Other men have a way of setting the ends of the fingers squarely against the side of the cow's teat. This cannot help hurting these sensitive organs, and it is no wonder the cow steps round to get away from her milker. Instead of striking the cow which lifts her foot under such circumstances, we should correct our own bad habits. It is a great deal better position for the fingers to lie out straight, so that the insides of each digit will come against the side of the teat. One other way by which a young cow may contract the habit under consideration is to be too harsh when milking a cow whose udder is pressed full of milk. Not always do we realize how sensitive this part of the cow's mechanism is. The truth is, no organ is more easily injured than the udder, and the teats share in a great measure ```markdown ``` The Ayrshire is the dairy rustler of all the dairy breeds, thriving and paying a profit where other breeds can hardly exist because she is a vigorous feeder and not at all dainty in her appetite, eating with a relish everything that comes in her way in the line of forage, good grass, poor grass and browse; all is food for the Ayrshire cow. The cow shown is Aucheubrain Brown Kate IV., which has a record of 23,022 pounds of milk and 1,080 pounds of butter in a year. She is owned by Penhurst farm, Narberth, Pa. this liability to be permanently harmed. When the teats are thus pressed the cow feels hurt and she has no way to show it save to step round out of the way if she can. So the habit of stepping becomes settled on the animal. In fact, few bad habits on the part of the cow but are traceable more or less directly to faults on the part of the one who has the handling of the cow when she is first being broken to milk. Never should a milker use more good sense and fellow feeling than at this critical time in the history of the cow. For habits cling to the cow as to the man. Silage a Roughage. Experiment shows that corn silage is a roughage and not a grain feed, says American Agriculturist. Many feeders have been led to believe, from the fact that the grain from the corn plant is put into the silo, that the silage produced therefrom is a grain feed. In fattening cattle the roughage in the ration produces its most marked influence during the early part of the fattening period. As the cattle become fatter the quantity of roughage eaten decreases and the grain consumption increases. Let me send you FREE PERFUME Write today for a testing bottle of ED.

Ration For Dairy Cows A very good ration can be made by letting each animal have daily about thirty pounds of corn silage and a liberal allowance of clover hay. A mixture consisting of 400 pounds corn and ceb meal, 300 pounds bran and 100 pounds cottonseed meal will go very nicely with this roughage. Feed about a pound of this mixture for each 3 to 3.5 pounds of milk produced. Pea Vine Silage. Pea vine silage is a splendid feed. It is somewhat richer in protein than corn silage, but contains the same amount of digestible nutrients in a hundred pounds. Dry Mash Mixture That Has Been Proved by Experiment. The following rations are recommended by the New Jersey agricultural experiment station after years of experimental work and careful testing. They have given exceptionally good results throughout the state. The rations as recommended apply especially to the light active breeds like the Leghorns. Such modifications as are necessary for seasonable feeding and for heavier breeds are described. Job Printing Dry mash as mixed for winter feeding: Wheat bran, 200 pounds; wheat middlings, 200 pounds; ground oats, 100 pounds; cornmeal, 100 pounds; gluten; feed, 100 pounds; alfalfa (short cut), 100 pounds; meat scrap (high grade), 200 pounds. This ration when mixed at home will cost the poutryman about $1.80 per 100 pounds. This dry mash is mixed in bulk and kept before the birds at all A The hen roost herewith illustrated is a cheap, simple affair made of trestles, slats and a low platform, low down for big breeds. Additional trestles may be used to raise the dropping boards off the floor for lighter birds. This roost does not touch the wall and may be taken down and out of the house for cleaning in a few minutes. It is easily moved from one part of the house to another. times in large self feeding, homemade hoppers. When the molt is going on in the months of August and September it is a good practice to substitute oil meal for the gluten meal in the same proportion. This hastens the growth of feathers and causes them to finish off much better. As soon as the birds get on green range in the spring the alfalfa and meat scrap can be almost entirely eliminated. The extent to which this mash can be modified during the summer will depend upon the range which they have and the character of the food which it affords. When the above dry mash is fed to heavier breeds than Leghorns, such for example, as Plymouth Rocks and Rhode Island Reds, especially with yearlings and two-year-old hens, the tendency is to take on an excessive amount of body fat. Under these conditions the hopper should be closed during the morning and left open only during the afternoon. This compels the bird to work more in looking for the grain, equal parts by weight of wheat and oats, five pounds of the mixture to each 100 birds, or rather more for the medium weight breeds, fed scattered in the litter in the morning. The Savannah Tribune 1009 WEST BROAD ST. OUT OF TOWN ORDERS GIVEN SPECIAL ATTENTION EGGS IN COLD WEATHER. Method of Feeding and Care That Has Produced Results. The biggest problem with poultrymen and farmers who keep chickens is how to get eggs during January and February, for these are the two months in which eggs are always scarce and high priced in every state. We have been able the past three winters to keep our young hens laying right through these two months, while our neighbors scarcely got an egg, writes a correspondent of the Orange Judd Farmer. Our method is no secret. The trouble is, it is so simple our neighbors have not the faith to try it. "You are just simply lucky," they will say. --- Besides the green feed and meat scraps, we feed them a grain ration as follows: Parched corn at noon and parched oats or rye at night. We put the grain in a large pan kept in the range till it is browned through. We feed about a fourth bushel to every thirty hens. We have tried to cut this grain feed down, but whenever we did the egg crop fell off. Our remedy for lice and mites is simple and cheap. We use tobacco dust, the cleanings from a tobacco barn, which are so dry they will pulverize into dust. However, they can be bought for about 10 cents a bushel. Sprinkle about a tablespoonful on the back of each fowl, rubbing the feathers toward the head. Selecting Egg Layers. Coarse, masculine looking pullets never make the best layers. Select those whose heads have a distinctly feminine appearance and expression. NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE WEEKLY LETTER (By J. C. Lindsay) The organization of the local branch of the National Negro Business League, which is doing so much tangible good in the matter of stimulating the Negro business men to an active interest in all of the businesses and enterprises engaged in by our people in this community, was brought about primaly for the good it might do this immediate community. But to the delight of those who, perhaps, were foremost in its organization, its influence for good is being felt not only in this community, but in some of our sister cities as well. The proof, of this statement is that we not only have a number of letters of a congratulatory nature upon our splendid organization, and upon the good feelings it is creating among our men engaged in business, but we have also sent to some of our neighboring cities, who were desirous of organizing a league and modeling it after our local league, constitutions and by-laws that they might properly organize and put their league in touch with the National body, the head of which is that intrepid born leader of men, Dr. Booker T. Washington. Negro Savannahians Proud of Savannah. Why should they not be proud of a city which can proudly, yet truthfully boast of having the finest, the most modernly equipped and certainly the most conveniently arranged Negro banking house in the country? The history of its humble beginning, just fourteen short years ago, is too familiar to the readers of our weekly letter to bear repeating at this time: Right in the very heart of the down town business center, we have another splendid banking business conducted by a splendid set of men with brains, integrity, and ample capital. Can you Blame Them for being Proud? When one thinks of the heroic business struggles and the achievements of the Negro business element in this city in the last five years, and see these banking, institutions referred to above, and these insurance companies, aside from giving to the owner and management of the oldest non-denominational Negro journal in the state, through encouragement and by patronage and financial support, the finest and most up-to-date building owned in fee simple by the journal published therein, of any to be found anywhere, Negroes have a perfect right to be proud. This publishing establishment which is operated, owned and controlled by the Savannah Tribune, is equipped with electrically operated machinery, together with a twentieth century up-to-date Linotype machine which can turn out more satisfactory work in its line than the fourteen well paid and highly satisfied Negro employees in this Negro printing house, including the three editors and the printers "Devil" combined. Then, why should not the Savannah Negro feel proud of what is being done by the members of the race engaged in business here? Savannahians Quick to Appreciate Service. That business man, firm or corporation, that renders service worth while to the good people of Savannah, may rest assured that their efforts will be rewarded. In other words, every man gets exactly what he makes himself fit to receive. Printers Ink a Silent Salesman The day of sympathy has past. The world is looking for that business which will measure up to the standard. One of the standards by which many of our businesses are measured is the confidence the manager, owner or proprietor seems to have in himself. If the person in control of affairs has not confidence enough in his business to inform others of it in the most telling and effective way, then he may rest assured that his days as a business factor in the community are numbered. We must make a noise about what we have to sell and let the public with money to spend know that we want their business, and must have a part of it. We must learn the value of printer's ink when properly applied. Penny Wise and Pound Foolish. Is an old word which constantly reminds many of us of the errors we have made in that we failed to let the trading and buy- ing public know what we had to offer for sale to those who had money to spend for such things, on the grounds simply that we could not afford to advertise. This error of "penny wise and pound foolish," which has been so frequently committed by many of our business (?) men, has resulted in many of them being forced to go out of business. Does a Well Written Advertisement Pay? If the other fellow who has had multiplied centuries of business experience and trading finds it necessary aid to the material interest and to the development of his business, to not only use columns of newspaper space to properly place his business in the best possible light before those who have money to spend for such things as are kept by him in stock, but whole pages, in the highest priced newspapers published in the community where live the people whom he wishes to serve, then the question naturally arises, why may we, the child race, not expect the same results from adopting the same tried and tested methods which are bringing to the other fellow such an abundance of success? Mr. Business Man, advertise. Cleanliness Next to Godliness We must keep our places clean, well lighted, well ventilated and attractive, free from dust cobwebs and the like, and be courteous, polite and painstaking in every detail and keep our business well advertised and our success is assured. These are some of the things for which the Negro Business League stand for, which meets the first Wednesday and the third Friday evenings in each month at 458 West Broad street, Wage Earners Bank building. R. E. PHARROW INTERVIEWED BY REPRESENTATIVE ODD FELLOWS "Mr. Pharrow, as hearty Odd Fellows, and earnestly desiring promote the best interest, we have undertaken to confer and discuss with leading Odd Fellows all over the state, what in their judgment, are the best things to be done to carry into effect the will and highest aim of the sixty thousand hearty Odd Fellows of this state. As you know, there is considerable unrest and dissatisfaction generally throughout our state. We desire to get your views as to the siphation. "Well, gentlemen, I appreciate the honor you do me, in having sufficient confidence in my judgment to ask me my opinion and views about the situation in Georgia, which I have given much study and thought. To be fair with you, I realize as you do, something must be done. The brotherhood and sisterhood are growing dissatisfied and impatient with some of the things that are being done in the order in Georgia. One thing they want and must have is retrenchment and economy of the disbursement of the public funds of the Order. These funds were given by the brother and sisterhood at a great sacrifice and for a specific purpose, and they should be used for the purpose for which they were given. They are trust funds and should be used as such, without extravagance. "Another thing I am strictly opposed to, is the members of the Executive Committee raising their own salaries. This has been done since the last Grand Lodge session in Savannah. No authority in the Order has the legal power to raise or fix salaries, levy or increase taxes and create offices but the District Grand Lodge. In other words the District Grand Lodge, like the legislature of a state, has only that power, for it is to the Order in Georgia, what the legislature is to the commonwealth. "Public office is a public trust, and the Grand Master and all the other Executive Officers are the servants of the Brotherhood, and the power given is delegated, and should not be abused. I believe in absolute obedience to the laws of the Order, and that every brother, whether high or humble, should stand equal in obedience to the same. I believe that every brother should have a fair and impartial trial in the courts of the Order, of competent jurisdiction, in order that equal and exact justice may be obtained. These are some of the things to which we must address ourselves to bring about satisfaction and permanent success to the Order in Georgia. From time to time I should be glad to co-operate with you and other brothers of the state in affairs pertaining to and looking to the best interest of our noble Order.' In conclusion, let me assure you that I am ready at any time to spend and be spent for the cause." The delegation of brothers was well pleased with the clear and wise statement of Bro. Pharrow. We were all the more gratified because we know the man. He has been an active Odd Fellow for more than twenty-seven years and has never been called upon, in service or money, that he did not respond. It is not too much to say, that Bro. Phiarrow has contributed much for the good of the Order in Georgia. As contractor and builder, it was he, as all well know, who built the magnificent Odd Fellow's building and Auditorium, which are regarded as the finest Negro buildings in the world. And this was done with commendable patriotism. Never did he go out of his way to charge one cent more than he was entitled to. It was ever his chief aim and purpose to be of service to the Order. During the erection of these buildings he saved the Order more than twelve thousand dollars; this is a matter of record, and shows his devotion to our noble cause. Such a man measures up to the Grand Master timber, and in our judgment would be a blessing and a credit to the Order in the state. And we do not hesitate to state that he should be elevated to the position. He would be Grand-Master and not a figure head. W. J. MOORE, Chairman C. A. BULLARD; Sec'y Over Home News, Beaufort, S. C. (J. S. Blocker, Correspondent.) Mr. Henry Simmons was in the city for a few days last week, circulating among his many friends. Mrs. Israel Elliott is out again after two weeks illness at her home on Green street. Mrs. Josephine Green is improving after being confined for two weeks at her home on Prince street. The many friends of Mrs. S. S. Grayson will be glad to learn that she is improving after an illness of more than three weeks: The citizen's mass meeting held at the auditorium on Friday evening of last week was largely attended by the colored citizens. Quite a lengthy discussion on the Beaufort plan, also commission form of government was had. The Beaufort Busters held their own. Rising Light Lodge No. 2407, Odd Fellows, recently celebrated their 23rd year at their temple on Duke street. The history of the lodge is indeed very creditable to all the members. Capt. B. H. Houston, P. N. G.; Dr. N? J. Kennedy, P. N. G.; and Capt. James Riley, Sr. P. N. G., were among those that made the visitors welcomed. After a solo and a few short talks on the order, then followed a delightful supper of ham sandwiches, pickles, salmon salad, lunch crackers, soft drinks etc. The affair was one of the most brilliant given in the city for some time. Rising Light Lodge has a membership of more than 92. They own property valued over $1,600. The report also showed a good balance on hand. Miss Gracy Chancey is sick at her home on Congress street. We wish for her a speedy recovery. Corinthian Lodge, K. of P. No. 17, installed the following officers: Major P. A. Rufes, C. C.; Capt. Israel Elliott, V. C.; Capt. W. I. Allen, Prelate; Sir.
