The
From F. A. B. Church
Many Telegrams of Condolence Read at Services—Was One of First to Secure a School for Colored Children—Fraternal Bodies Honor the Deceased.
Beaufort, S. C.—The funeral of Gen. Robt. Smalls, who died at his home on Prince street Tuesday, Feb. 23rd at 1:30 a. m., was held Friday, Feb. 26th, at the F. A. B. Church.
Rev. Waller, pastor of the church, officiated. He spoke of Gen. Smalls as a christian and a leader and his words brought forth tears from the vast crowd that filled the auditorium. Gen. Smalls was a member of the F. A. B. Church for more than ten years and during his connection there was one of the foremost and most helpful member.
Dr. Bythewood, another of Beaufort's leading ministers, spoke most feelingly of him as a citizen. Gen. Smalls was one of the first colored citizens of Beaufort to secure a school for Negro youths of that city, this building being erected on the spot now occupied by the Beaufort High school, which, because it is still in the possession of Gen. Smalls and other colored citizens, the county refuses to renovate.
Gen. Smalls was foremost in all matters which concerned the Negro, and his careful scrutinization of all legislative acts which related to the Negro will ever endear him in the memory of the citizens of his city and state. He was for a number of years a leader for his race in the city council of Beaufort and was highly esteemed by his fellow city-fathers.
Rev. P. P. Watson, formerly of the F. A. B. church, spoke of the deceased as one of the greatest Negroes the country has produced. He told effectively of the many triumphant deeds, political and otherwise, which the life of the General left to posterity, and his words with a peculiar sympathetic tenderness sank deep into the hearts of the hosts gathered to bid a last farewell to one of the most notable characters the Negro race has ever produced.
Dr. Coit, presiding elder of the A. M. E. church for the Beaufort district, spoke of the General as a statesman. He told of the many beneficial legislative enactments attributed to the fertile brain of the general and especially of those which had direct bearing upon the welfare of the Negroes of his state, among them the establishment of the state normal school for Negroes at Orangeburg, S. C. He also touched upon the constitutional convention of 1878 in which Gen. Smalls and several colleagues framed many of the laws which to-day stand foremost among the enactments of the State of South Carolina.
Dr. Washington, of St. Helena Island, read several telegrams of condolence from many leading citizens in various parts of the country. While the choir sang "Shall we meet beyond the river," the body was viewed by the large gathering. As the body was being viewed for the last time, not a dry eye of the vast crowd that passed it was seen and the scene was indeed very pathetic and told in a very emphatic way of the great esteem in which the deceased was held.
After the last person had passed the body is was carried out of the church by the Masonic Lodge, Sons of Beaufort, No.36, between two rows of Odd Fellows, Lodge No. 2211, of which the deceased was a member. The cortege, headed by Allen's Brass Band, then wended its way to the cemetery, moving up King street to Craven and then to the Tabermony, conducted by Grand a most impressive Masonic ceremony, conducted by Grand Master C. C. Johnson, of Aiken, a life long friend of the General, the body was laid to rest.
The funeral was the largest

PAID GENERAL SMALLS
PROGRAM FOR HEALTH WEEK.
1. Move out and burn up all unnecessary rubbish and all unused old clothing and waste. Move dust and clean well all pictures, furniture, drapery, carpeting, bedding, clothing, cooking utensils and all household ware. As far as possible, take all furnishings of the house into the open air and sun them all day. If the day set aside for the cleaning up is cloudy or rainy, do this on the next day.
2. Brush down the walls and ceilings of all rooms; scrub and clean thoroughly all the floors and wood-work of the house. In scrubbing the floors, use strong lye and hot water; in cleaning furniture and painted woodwork, use warm water and good soar Do not use lye on anything that is painted.
3. Paint or whitewash the walls, ceiling and woodwork. Then thoroughly dry, air and sun every room, especially the bedrooms.
4. Give careful attention to the front and back yards, and under the houses, as these menace the health and comfort of the family as long as they remain untidy. Scrape off the worn surface dirt level the walkways and paint or whitewash the fences and house. In whitewashing, use plenty of good lime and, to keep the whitewash from rubbing off, add one quart of salt to five gallons of whitewash.
5. Repair the stable, the barn and the hen house. Whitewash them if you can and see that no filth remains in which flies can breed.
6. Look after the springs and wells and make sanitary the outhouses and churches.
Morehouse College to Raise Funds for New Domitory.
Atlanta, Ga.—Each year brings forth its additional indications of progress throughout the colleges of this country. For the last few years Morehouse has grown steadily. In 1910 this school became overcrowded and the authorities had to ask for a building. It was through the efforts of Dr. Sales and President Hope that Sale Hall was erected at a cost of $40,000. The colored people of the state were asked to raise $5,000 of the sum and they did it. The school has again become crowded and additional room is needed. A new dormitory is needed and the General Educational Board has offered $15,000 to the school, for the erection of a dormitory tq cost $25,000. The American Baptist Home Mission-Society has offered $5,000. This money is given on condition that colored people raise $5,000. This money must be raised by the first of July, if the dormitory and dining room are to be ready by October first. The money must be raised before the work begins. The student body and faculty have already begun to work on the project and are going to put forth their greatest efforts to raise the amount necessary to obtain the sum that will enable the work to start by the first of July. This undertaking is only a part of the plan that the school mapped out. The colored people of this state have one duty and that is to raise the $5,000.
ever held in this city and the floral offerings were very numerous and beautiful, the most elaborate being a design from the city council and one from the G. A. R. There was a number of out-of-town persons who attended the funeral, among them being Dr. C. C. Johnson, Aiken; Rev. P. P. Watson, Orangeburg; Rev. Coit, Charleston; and Rev. Washington. St. Helena.
Gen. Smalls is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Elizabeth Bamfield, for more than six years postmistress here; Mrs. Sarah Smalls Washington, a teacher for many years in Claflin University; one son, Mr. W. Robert Smalls, a teacher at Austin, Tex. and several grand children.

LOCAL DOCTORS TO ASSIST IN CELEBRATION
City Health Exhibit by Dr. Brunner—Bishop Reese to Address Gathering—Ladies to Help.

Washington, of Tuskegee, for the observance of National Negro Health Week, the local branch of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes will observe, the week at its headquarters, St. Augustine hall, corner West Broad and Gwinnett Lane, beginning Monday night, March 22.
Dr. Brunner, city health officer, will place on exhibition at the league's headquarters during the week the city's health exhibit which elicited so much favorable comment at a meeting of the national city health officers' convention recently held at Jacksonville, Fla., and which deals with the diseases most prevalent in this part of the country and particularly in this city. Dr. Brunner and his assistants will have personal charge of the exhibit which will remain at the league's headquarters all during the week.
Aside from this, the Right Rev. F. F. Reese, bishop of the local Protestant Episcopal diocese, will address the meeting one night during the week. It was through Bishop Reese that the league was able to secure its present headquarters, and the members and friends of the league will be pleased to have him address them.
The local Negro doctors' association will have charge of one night's program and their discussion of the various health subjects will be of great interest and will add much to the importance of the occasion.
The ladies of the league, who have done so much to make the work of the league effective, will add greatly to the celebration by taking charge of one night's program.
The Tribune will later publish each night's program.

Special Notice.
MUCH INTEREST MANIFESTED IN LEADING PUBLIC SCHOOL PUPILS
EMMETT J. SCOTT HEADS ADVERTISING AGENCY
Nashville, Tenn.—One of the most constructive of the measures adopted by the Executive Committee of the National Negro Press Association which recently convened here with the resolutions endorsing the organization of a National Negro Business Service. Mr. Emmett J. Scott for fifteen years the secretary of the National Negro Business League, was very wisely selected to organize and work out the details of this movement.
With Mr. Scott's broad and comprehensive knowledge of business details and his intimate association with successful business as represented by both races, he is well qualified, it is thought, to render invaluable assistance to the race by helping the Negro business men of the country solve their merchandising and advertising problems, and at the same time bring these business men into intimate relationship with Negro newspapers to the end that they may help each other.
In addition to this, the National Negro Business service will undertake to present the cause of the Negro press intelligently, effectively and persistently to national advertisers who spend millions each year for advertising and who overlook the power of the Negro papers to reach and direct the millions spent annually by the race for necessities, because it has not been brought to their attention.
With the co-operation of the Negro press and the National Negro Business League and with the location of the main office at Tuskegee, Mr. Scott and his associates, the efforts of the National Negro Business Service, can help the Negro newspapers of the country secure the standing they deserve among advertisers, and also can help in the movement to secure the race, independence and prosperity through the increased efficiency of its business men.
The following resolution, offered by Hon. Joseph L. Jones, of Cincinnati, Ohio, at the Executive Committee meeting of the National Negro Press Association in mid-winter session assembled February 12, 1915, was, upon being read, referred to the Advertising committee with power:
Whereas, the Negro Press represents the two basic purposes in advertising: general publicity and direct sales advertising, and Whereas, with more than two hundred Negro newspapers, magazines, etc., we have practically no recognition at the hands of national advertisers despite the intelligent buying clientele represented by this group of newspapers and other publications, and Whereas, it is important that our newspapers "go after" a proportionate of this advertising business, be it
Resolved, that the organization of National Negro Business Service be, and hereby is, endorsed, with Mr. Emmett J. Scott, of Tuskegee Institute, Ala., a member of this executive committee, as president and general manager in connection with his duties as secretary of National Negro Business League; the idea and purpose of such National Negro Business Service being to intelligently direct merchandising and advertising campaigns for Negro business concerns promote advertising in Negro newspapers, and the influencing of national advertisers to use Negro publications in reaching this importantly valuable group of people with its tremendous purchasing power, etc.
The resolution was approved by the Advertising Committee and adopted.
Card of Thanks.
We wish to thank our friends and neighbors for the kindness shown during the illness of Mrs Morris. Mr. and Mrs. Albert Morris

PUBLICATION OF NAMES BENEFITS CHILDREN
Leaders For February
Monthly List Posted in Tribune Window Attracts Attention of Passerby—Much. Rivalry Among Pupils for Places of Honor.
The monthly publication by The Tribune of the first six pupils in each grade of the public schools of the city is attracting wide attention every month and the children and parents both read the names with much interest.
It is amusing to see how eager the children are to get hold of copies of The Tribune containing the list, even the little tots in the lower grades, who can scarcely read the names, stopping for an almost incredible length of time on their way to and from school or on aerrand for their parents, before Tribune office, trying to make out the names of the leaders as posted in the window. The monthly publication of the leaders in the schools has proved a great boost to the endeavors of the children and has caused a very healthy rivalry to spring up among them.
The following is the report of the first six in each grade for the month of February.

New York March 5—with the
first breath of Spring weather,
costumes begin to take on Spring-
like colorings. Hats in gayer col-
oring of trimmed with bright
flowers and feathers announce to
the world that Spring has return-
ed, eveh when the suit or dress
‘remains of the somber colors of
winter.
Covert cloth has been the nov-
elty in winter suits and is very
popular in the spring, for it is
light in color and combines with
many things. A new cloth called
buck-skin covert is the newest of
this type.
A Tew days ago I received an-
nouncement cards from a Fifth
Avenue dressmaking establish-
ment, of a private view of their
newest models. From the gen-
eral salesrooms I was guided in-
to a gray and gold elevator and
from there to an artistic room
also in gray and white and gold.
The simplest of small stages oc-
cupied one side of the room. A
few chairs were placed carless-
‘ly around the room, and we made
ourselves comfortable for the re-
‘view.

A Smart New Coat on Empire
. Lines. .
Boleros were the most striking
features shown. Short little bob~
by, sleeveless jackets, some cut
square and straight around,
others scalloped or — slashed.
These were worn over full blouses
which bloused a trifle over the
belt or girdled instead of being
pulled straight down. Most of
these were long-sleeved, while
others had the hell sleeves, three~
quarter or half-length, wide and
unbound at the lower edge.
The skirts were full and short,
most of them being built on pea-
sant lines, with full apron-like
overskirts front and back, divi-
ded on the sides and showing a
plain ruffled underskirt beneath.
Another noticeable feature, in
these dresses was the fact that
they were all made with a normal
waistline, an interesting fact
when one thinks of all the long
waisted and Empire lines which
are shown as ,forerunners_ of
Spring and Summer fashions.
It is a fact that the frocks made
on Empire lines are decidedly for
the girlish figure while the round-
waisted frocks suit all styles of
figure more or less.
Another type of costume shown
here was taken from the 15th
Century French costumes, The
waist was in doublet &ffect,
slashed several times front and
back through which the creamy
white chiffon blouse peeped. A
short pleated peplum finished the
lower edge of the waist. This
was worn over a full skirt with
a pleated ruffle on the bottom.
An interesting thing to remember
is that these pleated ruffles which
are used on the bottom of so
many skirts are pressed flat and
put on the lower edge without a
heading of any kind. —
In these dresses the long tunic
,was shown in many different
Rows Malt ge am 29 Ale WE come ULAR
styles, , Sometimes with a pleat-
ed lower skirt showing just be-
low, and again with an under-
skirt of filmy lace. .
One of these frocks I will des-
cribe in detail. The skirt was a
long blue tunic striped with a
thread of yellow and crossed with
a satin strip. This was slashed
up about cight inches and faced
upon the upper side with plain
blue. The pleated underskirt
of plain blte just peeped out from
beneath the tunic.
A short bolero jacket also
slashed and bound with plain blue
is worn over a white chiffon
blouse with a narrow pleat down
the center having a narrow frill
on either side. -The long sleeves
had deep flaring cuffs of the
striped silk with a frill of the chif-
fon around the edge. The collar
of the blouse was very high with
a frill of chiffon above and below.
Another little dress which
sported a short bolero jacket and
and chiffon blouse, haying deep
bell sleeves of the chiffon, had a
skirt which showed a new evolu-
tion of the tunic skirt. The skirt
was of blue, chiffon taffeta with
two box-pleatings around the
bottom, The skirt was the full
length in the back, but the front
was the depth of two box-pleated
ruffles shorter, and beneath were
two box-pleated frills of white
chiffon. The effect was stunning.
Contrast is a strong note in the
color combinations of the season.
Many dark jackets were shown
with white or light colored skirts.
Wide leather belts were used on
some of the dresses. One white
serge dress had a red patent
leather belt Which was very ef-
fective indeed.
A white cHiffon afternoon dress
showed the faglan sleeves with
surplice fronts of filet lace and “a
oose panel of the filet lace in the
yack. The unusual skirt was
nade of chiffon with three gradu-
ited bands of shirred silk ap-
lied. Each band was shirred up-
yn a cord top and bottom which
save the band a very pretty fin-
sh.
A mode which is having quite
. vogue and is both graceful and
fective has been inspired by the
Turkish trousers. This dress,
1owever, is not the trouser skirt,
ar be it! There is a foundation
kirt made shorter than the out-
ide skirt and the lower edge of
he outside skirt is gathered and
aught to the lower edge of the
inderskirt and the sirt itself
s blousged, if that ter can_be
ised, all around the bottom. The
lress avhich 1 saw having a skirt
ike this had 2 very wide belt
vith large round disks or moons
smbroidered on it in red and sil-
verand gold. ,

The New Basque Effect the Fea-
ture of This Costume. ¢
A coat and a dress showing the
long and short-waisted effects
are shown in the illustrations.
The coat in diagonal blue serge,
with full skirt and belt with poc-
kets upon each side is a late and
practical model for the Spring
coat. In the illustration the coat
is worn with a sand colored skirt.
In plain and moire taffeta is
the dress illustrated made in the
latest basque effect. The bodice
is given the long waisted appear-
ance by a pans: front which is
cut in one with 2 wide crush gir-
dle. This fits around the waist
and hips rather closely combin-
jng very well with the full flar-
ing skirt. * «
On many of these dresses
where a little color is needed to
give the proper note for contrast
a corsage bouquet was used.
There are many different kinds
of these flowers, those made from
velvet or silk or chiffon and those
‘made from ribbon. The trimm-
ing on some of the early spring
hats is very simple, often being
but a strip of narrow ribbon.
usually grosgrain, with a strand
of beads, in dull white, blue or

sentatives of Morehouse Colleg:
Morris Brown University and At

were organized into a committe
on arrangements for a campaig-
on religion and social service t¢
be initiated by the college mer
of the institutions named. Th
date set for the campaign wa
February 25th, to February 28t!
inclusive.
The committee on arrange
ment had so well advertised th
campaign that a large compan:
of collége men was at the first se
sion held at Morehouse College
Thursday February 25th. Mr
Tobias, presiding officer, gave <
few opening remarks in which h
said that the purpose of the con-
ference was to get the men o
the colleges of Atlanta to appre
ciate the importance of co-opere
tive effort in extdnsive worl
and also to bring about 2 mor
cordial feeling among the college
in athletics. He introduced th-
speaker of the session, Mr.-A. L
Jackson, an honor graduate o
Harvard, 1914, and class orator
Mr. Jackson with interestin’
stories drawn out of his athletic
experiences, made clear twe
points: the importance of eacl
man who expected to do socia’
work to be filled with Christian-
ity as expressed in unselfish work
and the importance of clean, man-
ly athletics. At the evening ses-
sion, at the same place, Mr. Te
bias made an appeal to the mer
to begin the Christian life.
On Friday the meetings were
held at Morris Brown Univer-
sity. At the afternoon sessior
My. R. H. Edwards, of the Inter-
national Committee, New Yori:
made an appeal to the men te
live the “four square life.” He
said that every man who liver
the “four square life” had fou
great awakening thru human er
periences. They are firs*
the awakening to hims-efl
second, the awakening to hi:
friends; third, the awakening te
his community or to his time
fourth, the awakening to God
Then Mr. Jackson spoke to thy
young men on “education for life”
He said one of the factors in ed-
ucation was loyalty, i. e.. alleg-
jance to the flag. Yet when we
applaud the flag we also praise
the evil conditions represented
by the flag. Hence it is our duty
to sce to it that the flag stand:
for liberty, justice, unselfishness
and equality. The students, he
said, should make acquaintances
with the unfortunate and become
“big brothers” to them.
In the evening Mr. A. M. Tra
wick, of Nashyille, social service
international secretary, Y. M. Cc

Masonic Influence.
It is a subject worthy of profound and gratifying thought to observe and realize the tremendous influence this great Fraternious influence this great Fraternitas in the affairs of men. From the far away-frozen North to "Africa's burning sands" the grand old story reads the same—help, uplift, loving kindness to every weary, discouraged soul, regardless of creed, country or condition.
We stand upon the limitless platform of "Peace on earth, good will to man," ever wending like the pebble tossed into still water—its beingn and beautiful influences upon thought, speech, character, act, life and death as well. And although in our human weakness and proneness to evil, we may lapse from the high ideals taught by F. A. M., in the final round-up we are better men, better citizens, and better 'brothers' than never to have been taught at all!—Corner Stone.
When a person makes application to a Masonic lodge, especially after having only been within the jurisdiction of that lodge for the required twelve months, or a short while longer, I believe it should be compulsory for the committee on character to investigate that party's record for at least five years prior to the date of his application. Certain it is that if a man is worthy to become a member of a Masonic lodge, he will not object to that investigation. If he is not worthy, the lodge should know it. I do not believe that such a requirement would keep a single good man out of the fraternity, but on the other hand it would prevent a great many people from gaining admittance.—A Past Master
Every degree of Freemasonry is progressive, and cannot be attained but by time, patience and assiduity. In the first degree we are taught the duties we owe to God, to our neighbor and ourselves. In the second degree we are admitted to participate in the mysteries of moral science, and to trace the goodness and majesty of the Creator by minutely analyzing His works. But the third degree is the cement of the whole; it is calculated to bind men together by mystic bonds of fellowship, as in a bond of fraternal affection and brotherly love; it points to the darkness of death and the obscurity of the grave, as the forerunner of a most brilliant light which shall follow at the resurrection of the just, when these mortal bodies which have been long slumbering in the dust
shall be awakened, reunited to their kindred spirit, and clothed with immortality.
Among the brethren of this degree the Ancient Landmarks of the order are preserved, and it is from them we derive that fund of information which none but ingenious and expert Masons can supply, whose judgments have been matured by years and experience. To a perfect knowledge of this degree few attain, but it is an infallible truth that he who gains by merit those marks of pre-eminence and distinction which this degree affords receives a reward which amply compensates for all his attention and assiduity.-Missouri Freemason.
Honor on Our Choice.
In the Charge after his initiation a newly admitted Brother is enjoined to particularly refrain from recommending anyone to a participation in the secrets of the Craft, unless he has strong grounds to believe that by real fidelity he will ultimately reflect honor on the choice of the brethren who receive him. This is certainly very excellent advice, but how best to carry it into effect, or how to produce the best results from its practice, is by no means an easy task; and if we take the injunction, tool literally we may prehaps defeat the real object and ambition of the Masonic Order—the advancement and betterment of our fellow creatures.
Happily the Craft of Freemasonry does not call for absolute perfection in its candidates. What it does require is a reasonable chance that any one admitted to membership may ultimately reflect honor on the choice of those who recommended him; while one of the earliest lessons impressed upon the new member is the necessity to strive for a daily advancement in Masonic konwledge, or, in other words, a regular progression in the the great humanizing work of the Craft, as explained in its endeavor to teach the Fatherhood of God, and the Brotherhood of man. —Freemason's Chronicle.
Frederick the Great, who was the author of the famous letter of denunciation to the ecclesiastical authorities of Aix-la-Chapelle, who were endeavoring to foment disturbance against the Masonic body, laid aside his royal robe, scepter and crown when he entered the door of the lodge.—The Northern Freemason.
Patience.
No attainment is beyond his reach who equips himself with patience to achieve it.-Le Bruyere.
Cheap money will solve many of the farmers problems.
There is not enough of the community spirit among our rural districts.
Success in farming depends largely upon proper marketing methods, cheap money and cooperation.
Something is wrong in our marketing system when a small crop brings more money than a bountiful one.
Co-operation between practical farmers and proficient business men will eleminate ignorance and prejudice.
The highest duty of the state and Federal Government is to place agricultural education within the reach of all.
The farmer cannot be helped until he organizes, and the Government can best help the farmer through organization.
By co-operating with his neighbor the farmer can learn new methods of culture and the interchange of ideas will benefit both.
The Nation's menu must be made up from the fields, pastures, orchards and gardens, and to farm intelligently the farmer must know what he needs.
An Quince of Prevention is Worth A Ton of Cure.
It is said that the sword of Damocles was suspended above the head of that tyrant with but a single thread.
Every man, woman and child ought to think well of the lesson taught by this example.
The fire demon is the sword of destruction that ever hangs above the heads of the people. If you knew that by the mere snipping of a thread all you have saved would be wiped out, wouldn't you ever be on the alert to see that the thread was not snipped?
More property is destroyed by fire than by all other destroying elements combined.
Storms come with the seasons, and warning of their coming is generally given. Winds reach a destructive velocity at but rare intervals and floods follow expected courses. But fires are catholic in their field. They visit the just and the unjust and everywhere there is food for the fire demon he finds his victuals. Be on the watch tower of your own home all the time. He fat-
tens on your own folly. You can prevent his paying you a visit if you but will.

Washington, D. C.—The crop reporting board of the Federal Department of Agriculture has just made its estimate of the 1914 farm crops of the United States. Fourteen crops, covering 300,782.000 acres or 92 per cent of the nation's cultivated area are included in the report and the combined farm value of all products is estimated at $4,964,000,000. Although the 1914 production of crops is 10 per cent. greater than the previous year the aggregated farm value is $20,000,000 less.
Both the wheat and cotton crops of the nation in 1914 were the largest on record. The cotton crop was nearly 16,000,000 bales and the wheat production was approximately 891,000,000 bushels. While 1914 cotton production was approximately 1.800,000 bales more than the one of 1913 the value was $306,000,000 less. Cotton in 1913 averaged $22.20 per acre against $14.14 in 1914. The yield per acre in 1914 was 25 pounds more than in 1913 but the price per pound in 1914 was 6.8 cents and 12.2 cents in 1913.
Now is the Time to Swat the Fly.
Uncle Sam is waging a relentless war on the deadly house-fly and in a late bulletin prepared by the Department of Agriculture, valuable information is given on the best means of combating this deadly pest. The most effective way of exterminating the fly, in accordance to the bulletin, is to eradicate his breeding places. The breeding season of the fly begins early in March and continues throughout the spring and summer months. All dirt should be removed from the premises, stables cleaned and decaying vegetables destroyed.
The fly has rightly been called the undertaker's traveling salesman, and in addition to his regular line of "typhoid bugs", he carries a side line of tuberculosis, Asiatic Cholera and other disease germs. Now is the time to "swat the fly."

The "kasabi" torta (we get our word "tart" from torta of Hispanic-America is the biggest regularly made cracker on earth. It is made from the kasabi root and lightly fired in cakes about the size of a small parasol.
A cracker for a hat—such indeed is sometimes the use made by the Latin peons of the kasabi torta when needing a temporary sunshade (sombrero). The torta is always made bowl shaped so it can be balanced on the head without any particular effort—and provided no wind interferes. Rain, however, quickly soaks and collapses this remarkable and useful edible headgear.—London Express.
Queer.
"When a woman wears a very low gown people say that she is dressed in the height of fashion."-Detroit Free Press.
Those Who Buy Them.
The man who can't afford to buy one; the man who prefers to own a good team of thoroughbreds; the man who doesn't mind the first cost, "but it's such an expense to run one;" the man who wouldn't have time to enjoy one the man who would like one all right "only I want to get my place paid for first"—they are all buying cars so fast that the factories can't keep up with orders. Before long there will not be enough pedestrians left to furnish sport for the drivers.—Puck.
THE LOVE OF GOLD.
Men pursue riches under the idea that their possession will set them at ease and above the world. But the law of association often makes those who begin by loving gold as a servant finish by becoming themselves its slaves, and independence without wealth is at least as common as wealth without independence.—Colton.
Among the rare specimens not open to public inspection in the Harvard zoological museum is what is claimed to be the largest frog in the world. It weighs about six pounds, is twenty-seven inches long from tip to toe and of a slaty black color. Its web feet are equal in size to those of a large swan. But three of its kind have ever reached the United States. Dr. Boulenger of the British museum was the discoverer of the new species in 1906 while on an expedition in central Africa. All known specimens have been found in two districts, called Kribi and Etulan, of the German colony Kamerun.
Pleasure at Death.
A wise man shall not be deprived of pleasure even when death shall summon him, forasmuch as he has attained the delightful end of the best life, departing like a guest full and well satisfied. Having received life upon trust, and duly discharged that office, he acquits himself at departing.—Epistetus.
"Roland" of Ghent Cathedral. "Roland" is the alarm bell in the belfry of Ghent cathedral, and on it is engraved an inscription which may be thus translated: "My name is Roland; when I toll there is fire, and when I ring there is victory in the land." The bell has been immortalized by Longfellow in his poem "The Belfry of Bruges."
Till the bell of Ghent responded o'er lagoon-and dike of sand:
"I am Roland' I am Roland! There is victory in the land!"
In the Wrong Place:
Little Kitty had fallen down and cut her knee. Her mother promptly rendered first aid; but, as it was rather dark and she could not see the wound properly, she consequently placed the bandage rather too low. "Oh, mummie," complained the child, "this bandage is not in the right place! I fell down higher up!"

Great Dublin Revival.
Rev. W. M. Barron, pastor of the Scottsville Baptist Church, Dublin, Ga., is holding some interesting meetings. The meetings started Monday after the 5th Sunday in January. The first week Rev. R. B. Odom, of Macon, had charge; second week, Rev. H. H. Coleman, of Bainbridge, Ga.; third week, Rev. R. B. Williams, of Macon, Ga., preached four nights and added 58 members to the church. The pastor added 32 in two nights, making a total of over one hundred added to the church in three weeks. This breaks the record for Dublin and proves Rev. Barron one of the greatest revivalists to visit Dublin.

To the Pilgrim Health and Life Insurance Co:
I take this method to thank the manager, Mr. A. B. Singfield, and entire force for their kindness during the illness and death of my mother. Our family will always remember the many kind deeds shown us during the hours of adversity by my co-workers in the business, and we only hope that an opportunity will come when we can, in some way, return the kindness.
We also appreciate very highly the prompt manner in which the Pilgrim Health & Life Insurance Company paid the death claim, it is quite a consolation to be a member of such a company, therefore we wish to encourage our friends to seek protection in the above mentioned company which will certainly prove to be your strongest friend during the hours of adversity. The whole family joins me in sending this acknowledgement of appreciation. Please accept it, and believe me to be.

But in spite of this logical declaration some of us just keep on being divided. Now let us not be divided against ourselves in the industrial insurance business. Remember the officers of the Negro insurance companies are ours; the agents are ours; the clerks are ours; the members are ours; the positions created as a natural consequence are ours; then let us stand absolutely together along this line and be perfectly fair with each other in all of our dealings, join the GA.

Lesson XI. First Quarter, For March 14, 1915.
THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES.
Text of the Lesson, I Sam. xi—Memory
Verse, 12, 13—Golden Text, Prov.
xvl, 32—Commentary Prepared by
Rev. D. M. Stearns.
After the Lord had brought to Samuel the man whom He had chosen as king for Israel and Samuel had anointed him he returned to his home, having met on his way all whom Samuel said he would meet, for all came to pass just as Samuel said. The Spirit of the Lord came upon him, and he became a changed man (chapter x, 6-10). All this was a private matter between the Lord and Samuel and Saul, for when Saul reached home he only told that Samuel had assured him that the asses had been found, but he said nothing of the kingdam. Then Saul called the people to Mizpah, reminded them of the Lord's deliverance from Egypt and all enemies and of their rejection of God in demanding a king and then proceeded to have them elect a king with God's permission. It was, no doubt, done by lot, as the land was divided, for "the lot is cast into the lap, but the whole disposing thereof is of the Lord" (Num. xxvl, 55, 56; Prov. xv1, 33). First the tribe was found and then the family and then the man (chapter x, 20, 21; compare Josh. vll, 16-18), and thus they were guided to the man whom He had already chosen and anointed. Although elected, he could not for a time be found, so they inquired of the Lord, and He told them where to find him. Whether it be a person or a thing that cannot be found. He that is perfect in knowledge knows where to find the lost (Job xxxvl, 4)
When the people looked upon the man whom God had chosen they could not refrain from shouting. "God save the king!" or, as in the margin. "Let the king live!" (x. 23-25.) The band of men whose hearts God had touched were a comfort to him, so that he was able to seem as a deaf man to his enemies (x. 26, 27). Our lesson chapter shows how Saul by the Spirit of the Lord began to deliver Israel and to obtain the confidence of the people. I suppose there is scarcely a day in the life of any child of God when there is not an occasion to say. "Now, the serpent" (Gen. iii, 1), for he is ever going about to make trouble. Nahash, whose name signifies "serpent," was moved by the deril, whose he was and whom he served, to seek to bring reprench upon Israel (verses 1-3). Saul heard of the distress of Jahesh Gilead and in a very striking way summoned the people to gather unto him and Samuel, and 330,000 gathered, and word was sent to the distressed that they would have help by the morrow. That night or in the early morning (verse 11) Saul came suddenly upon the Ammonites and so completely routed them that two of them were not left together (verses 4-11).
The morning deliverances of the Bible are full of interest and are all suggestive of the morning that is coming, when the Lord shall finally and forever deliver Israel (Ps. xlv. 5, margin). Compare Ps. xlix, 14, and see Ex. xlv, 24, 27. Think also of Dan. vii, 19-23, and of the deliverance that came to the disciples in the morning watch (Mark vi, 48). But, while believers may well rejoice in the glorious morning that is coming and in Him who is to us the Morning Star (II Sam. xxll, 5; Rev. xxll, 16), it is also written that there will be no morning for such as do not believe God (Isa. vii, 20; margin and revised version). When the people saw the great deliverance wrought by Saul they asked to have Saul's enemies put to death, but Saul would not listen to it, saying, "There shall not a man be put to death this day, for today the Lord hath wrought salvation in Israel" (verses 12, 13). It was the same power that wrought for Israel at the Red sea (Ex. xlw, 13, 30) and on so many occasions in all their history, and their greatest deliverance is yet to come (Zech. xlv, 3, 9). Samuel then gathered the people to Gigal, and then there made Saul king before the
there they made Saul king before the Lord, offered sacrifices, and all Israel rejoiced greatly (verses 14, 15). Thus far all seemed to be going well, but when man has his way there is soon failure, for "verily, every man at his best state (apart from God) is altogether vanity" (Ps. xxxix, 5).
Chapter xii tells how Samuel rehearsed the history of the nation from their coming out of Egypt, the Lord's dealings with them under Moses and Aaron and how many a time He delivered them in the days of the judges. He also asked them to testify as to whether during all the time that he had judged them he had ever taken anything from them or defrauded any one or taken a bribe to blind his eyes, but they called God to witness that they could find no fault in him in any of these matters (xil, 1-5). To show them that he was right before the Lord as well as in their eyes and that they had done wrong in asking for a king when the Lord Himself was their King he asked the Lord to send thunder and rain that day, and He did so. The people seemed to see their sin and asked Samuel to pray for them (xil, 6-19). Samuel assured them that, though they had done this great wrong, yet if they would truly turn to the Lord and fear Him and serve Him in truth with all their heart He would for His great name's sake forgive them and not forsake them and he (Samuel) would not cease to pray for them.
Cash Profits Do Not Measure the Returns From a Farm. [Prepared by United States department of agriculture]
Just how much does the average farmer make? The answer to this puzzling question has been long sought by agricultural experts, since it is the ultimate test of all systems of farm management. It is simple enough to calculate the cash profits received in the course of the year, but these do not measure the farmer's success. The farm supplies him with much besides money—with food, shelter and fuel. For these things the city worker has to pay out a large part of his wages. They must, therefore, be included in any just estimate of the farmer's income. In other words, the city worker is paid entirely in cash, the farmer partly in cash, partly directly in the necessities of life.
To obtain fuller knowledge of the value of this direct contribution from the farm, the United States department of agriculture has recently concluded an investigation which included 438 farm families, divided among ten states in different sections of the country. The investigators found that on these farms the cost of maintaining each grown person was on the average $176 a year.
Of this sum only about 22 per cent was paid out in cash. The remainder was furnished by the farm, not in the form of money, but in those things for which the money would have been exchanged. The extent to which a farm can thus be made self sustaining, made to supply the wants of the family that lives upon it without resorting to buying and selling, is indicated by conditions in the particular area of North Carolina included in the investigation. This area, it may be said, is not regarded as typical of Southern agriculture.
The investigators found that the average annual value of the food, fuel, oil and shelter enjoyed by the farm family was $500. Of this sum the average farm furnished directly $429, leaving only $76 to be bought. The grocery bill was always the largest item in the cash expenditure.
This was even more apparent in other sections where the farms were less nearly self sustaining than in this particular area of North Carolina. The bulk of the groceries was always bought, but the total quantity consumed depended to a great extent upon the quantity of animal products and vegetables raised on the farm. Where these abounded the consumption of groceries diminished. From this it would seem that an obvious way to effect an important saving in expenses is to raise more vegetables and animal products on the farm. Whether it is better to cut down expenses in this way or to increase receipts by concentrating attention on cash crops is one of the great problems in farm management, the answer to which in each individual case depends upon local conditions. In the past, however, many farmers have not realized the existence of the alternative.
The two other important items in the cost of maintenance are house rent and labor. Both of these it is a common error to overlook in estimating the farmer's income. Since the house usually goes with the farm and the labor is performed by members of the family both are taken for granted. With labor it is much the same. The members of the family secure by their work comfort which they would otherwise have to buy, or, to put it another way, if they did the work for somebody else they would be paid. As it is, they pay themselves.
It is obvious, therefore, that what the farm furnishes directly in food, in fuel, in shelter and in rent is an important part of the farm family's income. On the other hand, it must be remembered that the farmer has capital invested in his business, the interest on which must be earned before he can truly be said to be making money. In the proper relation of the three factors—interest on the investment, cash receipts and direct income from the farm—lies the secret of successful farming.

business ‘doctrines uttered by the
Negro Business League in sten-
torian tones, have and’are still
having their effect. The business
men of Savannah, collectivély; a¥é
loud in their! praise of the tingly
and effective, work that is erie
ually being: done by this organiza-
tion amqug men who are bringing
things to pass. Ly erys-
“A New Day.
The dawn of the sunlight of a
quarter 6f'a century has awaken-
ed the Negro along business lines,
and has caused him to feel the
need, pE‘answering the roll call
of' business Solicitations and in-
sist on receiving his full share
commensurate to the manner in
which,.he his qualified. As a
race, we have made good reli-
giousl};, and” socially; as church
builders we cannot be excelled,
and when’it comes to society and
fratertialism, we have no equals.
Iw sodial‘'ranks;’ we exceed the
speed limit. Is it not time, that
we cotisidtr a more effective and
tangible'line!, whereby our asscts*
may be increased?
“Business Opportunity.
The opportunity is fully ripe
zlong business lines for the
Negro, hence he should no longer
stand. on the wayside as the blind
wan,. inquiring the way. The
thing he should do is to rise up
and pave the way, and attract the
attention 6£ the business’ world,
in order that all cyes, for the
first time, will be turned towards
the Negro as a race rising from
a humble stage of destitution to
that of-‘thrift and prosperity. It
does not, stand to reason that the
Negro \shauld sct supincly by.
sjuictly awaiting the close of the
Yuropean war, in order that
foreigners «may be immigrated
here to secure the unsecured op-
portunities; by bringing things to
pass along business lines, neither
would it suffice to discuss fur-
ther thesneed of emmigrating
to Africa. The Negro was cap-
tured and brought here against,
his will. Providence shaped his
destiny as well as his opportuni-
ty,-hence in the language of the
intrepid Booker T. Washington,
“Let us Iet our buckets down
where ive are,” by patronizing
and lending our support and en-
couragement to the various lines
‘of business now being operated by
the race, as well as to encgurage
the organization of other business
estahlisliments. Since we have
upwards of forty.thousand Ne-
gro citizens in Savannah, who
must eat, as well as the other fel-
low must wear clothes, as well as
the other fellow; who must wear
shoes, a$ well a the other fellow,
the time has come that we must
think for ourselves, as well as the
other fellaw, then why not spend
our money among ourselves, as
well'as the other fellow?
It was a feature of interest
at a certain prominent cliurch in
our city, when a prominent socie-
ty had turned out to celebrate
its anniversary, as well as to have
the ‘djvine blessings of inspira-
tion invoked upon them, some
one cltanced to read a synopsis of
the organization, the life and
growth of the society. Among
other things he read the number
of the years they had been exiting,
the rail of officers, the number of
deceased members of the fiscal
year and last but not least, read
that they had the snug sum of
three hundred and fifty dollars
on dgposit ina certain white
bank gf the city, which is fre-
quently referred to as being the
strongest bank in the city. But
why shoulda’t a bank which gets
deposits from that class of peo-
ple it-wants, and then- from that
class of people that are not want-
ed, hetthe strongest? Notwith-
standing the fact, this is the bank
s Caesar’s.
More Need of Divine Aid
ihe Negro Business League
wishes to bespeak for the busi-
ness men of this community,
their deep appreciation and pro-
found gratitude to the ministers
of the city, Who have so fluent-
ly raised their voices in stentor-
jan tones endorsing Negro busi-
nesses and encouraging the pat-
ronage thereof. This, of course,
is as it should be with the pas-
tors who are so broad hearted
and thoughtful that ‘they will
speak of his struggling brother
in business. But we invite the
attention of that brother pastor
who has not as yet considered
jhe vast necessity of preaching
the business gospel as well as
the religious gospel. | The
thoughtful preacher must con-
vert his brother preacher, who is
less fortunate, to think that we
have business souls, as well as
human souls to save, for, indeed,
it is just as essential to prepare
‘for living in this world as it is
to prepare for living in the world
to come. It is just as necessary
to arrange to get a coat to wear
while here, as to arrange to get
a long white robe to wear in the
great beyond; it is just as neces-
sary to arrange for a hat to wear,
in the streets of Savannah, as
to arrange for a starry crown
in paradise.
These are the things that the
Negro Business League has
stood for and will always stand
for, which meets the _ first
Wednesday and third Friday
evening in each month at its
headquarters 458 West Broad
strect.

the biggest sales of cotton ever
made by a Negro farmer in Geor-
