The Savannah Tribune. VOLUME XXX LEADING PUPILSIN PUBLIC SCHOOLS MONTHLY AND TERM STANDING INTERESTING Mary Students in Various Schools Make Excellent Records—Work on Whole Very Satisfactory. The following is the standing of the first six pupils in each grade of the public schools for March and also for the second term which ended Wednesday. The March report is similar to that of the preceding six months, already published in The Tribune, and is simply a record of the work for that month ending with the recent examinations. The term standing represents the work for the past three months and is found by adding the daily recitation in all the studies for those three months and the written examinations in all the studies and dividing that sum by two. In other words it represents the sum total of the pupil's efforts in all his work for the term. The record which the pupils in general have made in the schools for the past three months has been very satisfactory on the whole, both in studies and deportment. East Broad Street School.

CHICAGO ARTIST COMES FRIDAY NIGHT The public is alive to the rare opportunity of hearing Miss C. Delpha Boger, the greatest contralto of the race, in concert at the concert-dansant and charity ball to be given at Masonic Temple by the Allied Charities.

Many have requested for seat arrangement, yielding to these requests, the committee will arrange to stage part of the concert at least, before the dancing Ample accommodation will be provided for all the people. The indications are that Savannah's best people will come out "en masse" to the most excellent of Post Lenten affairs.

Odd Fellows Hold Mass Meeting AT HARRIS STREET HALL About Three Hundred Present—Much Dissatisfaction Over Effort to Endorse Candidate for Grand Master. The mass meeting of Odd Fellows, held under the auspices of the Athens Club on last Monday night at Odd Fellows hall, Harris street east, was largely attended. About three hundred men and women of the order crowded the third floor of the building where the meeting was being conducted. It was presided over by the president of the Athens Club, W. E. Searles. The meeting as was understood by the members of the order was called for the purpose of discussing the new five hundred dollar certificates that are now being issued, and again on account the fact that many of the members had not seen one of the new certificates and had no knowledge of the stipulations therein contained. It was stated a program had been arranged for the occasion and several speaches were called for. The principal speaker, J. D. Powell having one of the new certificates, read and explained it as thoroughly as he understood it and a keen interest was manifested in his talk all the way thru. The speaker dwelt, at length upon the subject and imparted useful knowledge to his hearers. At the conclusion of his remarks, several other speakers were called upon and spoke on the subject. Up to this point the meeting was harmonious and moved along smoothly until an effort was made to have the assembly endorse Dr. B, W. S. Daniels for Grand Master of the state. This move met with stubborn opposition, those opposing it contended that the meeting was not called for the purpose of endorsing any candidate. Nowwithstanding the efforts of C. M. Brinson, who was then occupying the chair to put the move through, regardless of the protests against it, it met with defeat although it caused the meeting to be in an uproar for some time, thereby disgusting many who were in attendance. Quietness prevailed only after the president, W. E. Searles, resumed the chair. The meeting finally adjourned without the legislation of any business. Morehouse College Notes Atlanta, Ga.—Mr. Chas. Stewart of Chicago delivered a very helpful address to the student body of Morehouse College on the morning of March 22nd. Mr. Geo. W. Crawford, a successful lawyer of New Haven, Conn., visited the college, while en route to Talladega College. On Friday evening the triangular debate between Morehouse, Knoxville and Talladega will occur. The question for discussion is "Resolved, That the Capitalists of Colorado are justified in employing only Union men in the Mines of the State." At. Morehouse Knoxville will defend the negative side of the question, while Morehouse will defend the affirmative. On the same night, Morehouse will defend the negative side against Talladega.

MORRIS BROWN DEFEATS MORE- HOUSE Atlanta, Ga.—On Saturday, March 27th the Morehouse Tigers met the Morris Brown aggregation and were defeated by the score of 9 to 5. The game was a hard fought one. Kennedy was on the mound for Morehouse and Williams was hurling them for Morris Brown. Kennedy pitched a good game for Morehouse, but was a bit wild and received horrible support at times. Williams pitched well, but the Old Maroon was able to connect with his fast ones. The keen rivalry between these two nines made the contest one of the most important of the season.

Mixon, of Queen Esther court, a solo by Miss Nettle T. Saxon, paper on the Juneviles by Miss Lawton, the Hon. J. I.

A large crowd was at the exercise. SCHOOL CHILDREN'S RACE QUESTION DECIDED NEXT MONDAY. On account of the inclement weather, the meeting of the Negro Business and Professional Men's Association called for last night has been postponed until Monday afternoon, April 5th, at five o'clock at the Urbau League headquarters. On last Sunday night the Rt. Rev. F. F. Reese, Bishop of the Georgia Episcopal diocese, confirmed a class of twenty at St. Stephen's Episcopal Church. The services which were very impressive were witnessed by a large congregation. The Rev. J. L. Taylor, rector, was present at the service but on account of his being somewhat indisposed he could not take as active part in the service as he otherwise would have. On tomorrow, special Easter services will be held at St. Stephen's. ODD FELLOWS THANKSGIVING CELEBRATION The Final meeting of the joint committee of the Odd Fellows Thanksgiving Day celebration was held at Harris Street hall on last Wednesday night at which time complete arrangements for the occasion were completed.

ATLANTA UNIVERSITY ITEMS Atlanta, Ga.—The Herndon oratorical contest of Atlanta'University which occurred Friday night March 20th, was largely attended by an enthusiastic audience. The speaking was unusually good and Mr. A. F. Herndon, the giver of the prizes, expressed his delight in a short speech that so many had participated and said that he thought everyone deserved a prize because they were so good. The winners of the prizes were as follows: Of the young ladies, Miss Mae B. Maxwell won the first prize; Misses Mattle Bell Scott and Maxie Mae Harris won second prizes. Of the young men, Mr. Norris Herndon won the first prize and Mr. Loring B. Moore of Brunswick, Ga. won the second prize. The Inter-collegiate concert given at the University on Saturday night in the Ware Memorial Chapel was unusual from every point of view. The representatives from the various colleges that took part for the benefit of the Gate City Free Kindergarten Association reflected great credit upon themselves as well as upon the institutions from which they came. The entire audience was of the opinion that the concert was easily worth $1.00 admission and many expressed the regret that the admission was not larger for so good an entertainment and for so good a cause. Dr. Chapman, the evangelist, and Mr. Alexander, the singer, visited the University during the week and spoke and sang for the students. The last rhetoricals for the year ooccur Friday, April 2nd at eight o'clock in the evening.

C., to deliver an address to all of the colored teachers of Washington city on April 12th. NUMBER 28 JOHNSON TAKES $30,000 IN GOLD BIG FIGHT COMES OFF MONDAY MORNING Will Take Place in Race Track—Johnson Will be Given Cash Before the Fight Starts. Havana, Cuba, March 30—Thirty thousand dollars in American gold has been deposited in a Havana bank subject to the orders of Stakeholder "Bob" Vernon. This is the sum Jack Johnson will be handed when he reaches the race track on Monday, April 5, at Havana for his 45-round world's championship battle with Jess willard. Johnson wants American gold, and the entire sum has been deposited in a safe deposit vault in shining gold eagles. "No matter where you are, that money buys anything you want, from a plate of soup to an automobile," declared Johnson. "So gimme mine in gold." A cashier's receipt has been made out for the money in favor of Stakeholder Vernon. Before Johnson gets into the ring this receipt will be indoresd to him and a trusted friend will hold it while Johnson is battling with willard through the forty-five rounds—or less. Johnson anticipates no trouble in getting his money out of Cuba. This country is a debtor's paradise. They can summon a man in court in Cuba for debt, but they cannot collect a judgment. He has three years in which to pay the judgment before any drastic action can be taken against him. The battle is scheduled for 11 o'clock in the morning and at 2 in the afternoon the racing program will be started. By an arrangement with the management of the Havana race track tickets to the fight also admit the purchaser to the races in the afternoon. It is expected that Johnson and Willard will enter the ring at 11 o'clock sharp, after one preliminary as the crowd is arriving. Even if the fight went the entire forty-five rounds as scheduled it would be all over at 2 o'clock, when the first race is supposed to start. A big force of carpenters has been engaged to remove the ring and the seats which will be on the track itself. Dr. O'Brien of Kansas City, Mo., to Speak at Congregational Church The First Congregational Church, Rev. W. L. Cash, pastor. Morning worship at 11 o'clock and evening worship at 8 o'clock. Rev. J. P. O'Brien, D. D., of Kansas City, Mo., educational secretary of the Congregational Sunday School and Publishing Society for the Southwest, is expected to be present and will preach on Sunday morning.

At the evening service the Easter exercises of the Sunday school, entitled "Easter Awakening" will take place. A special Easter offering will be taken. On Sunday morning from 7 to 8 o'clock a sunrise, prayer meeting service will be held. You are cordially invited to attend all these services. Sunday at the X. M. C. A. The X. M. C. A. had a applendid meeting on last Sunday. On tomorrow there will be a general discussion of the subject, "The X. M. C.A. and the Community. Life." led by Messrs. S. P. Carroll and G. E. Dorsey. REV. AND MRS. TAYLOR IMPROVING. Friends of Rev and Mrs. J. L. Taylor, rector of St. Stephen's Church will be pleased to know that they are both convalescing after a seige of sickness. Mrs. Taylor was just about to recover from an attack of la gripe when she unfortunately suffered a relapse and her many friends were very solicitous of her condition for several days. About ten days ago Rev. Taylor was also attacked by this disease which has recently caused so much sickness and discomfort throughout the city and anxious inquiries as to his condition were heard on every side. Rev Taylor is one of the most popular ministers in the city and his numerous friends will be pleased to learn that both he and Mrs. Taylor are well on the road to recovery.

NEW MODES IN COLORS New York, April 1—All dresses are full short whether for morning, afternoon or evening wear. Collars are high in the back with some kind of opening in front. One dress of black taffeta, has a collar high in the back with a flaring white organdy collar above; around the collar and tying in a bow in front is a piece of black ribbon, giving the collar an old time stock appearance. Below the ribbon bow is an open V, where the bare neck shows. Another rather military model with a V neck has a collar high in the back and coming a little forward, where it is caught by a loop of cord to a brass button on each side. Many skirts are finished with a slashed or scalloped lower edge, which is bound with the same or contrasting material. One striking and practical dress which I have recently seen with this feature was of black voile over tiffeta, in a shade of plum verging onto old rose. The bodice of the dress had almost the appearance of a jacket. The voile was fitted plain over the silk and both were gathered together at the waistline, so it had the appearance of being a shadowy solid color. The col- © McCALL A Simple Dress Developed in Striped Voile. lar lined with the taffeta was high in the back, and on the sides were separate pieces, which looked like petals, to frame the face. The skirt of black volle hung independently of the silk hanging, with a wider band of silk underskirt, and was slashed around the bottom bound with black volle and piped with the tiniest edge of the silk. The underskirt was also slashed and bound of itself. A wide pleated girdle of silk surrounded the waist, crossed in the back and tied loosely in the front. An important feature of this dress was the sleeves, which were three-quarter, and not full, length. They were a narrow bell shape and faced back with the silk on the right side. For the summer dress many models of pongee are shown. One pongee dress was trimmed with royal blue embroidery. The bodice was of pongee with a pleated front of chiffon exactly the same shade. The collar was low and extended out to the shoulder-tip, scalloped in the front and embroidered in the blue. The skirt was made with a yoke in front, and falling from the yoke was a pleated section, while at the sides the yoke and skirt were in one. Another pongee dress made in semi- Princess style is trimmed down the front of the waist with braid in military style, and the edge of the opening of the waist, which extends to the waist line is finished with a rather large cord which knots loosely. A new style of collar which is taking many people by storm is made of white linen. It is cut circular and placed on a band around the neck at the height of the "Adam's apple" and extends out to the shoulder-tips, and in the more extreme ones a bit beyond. The general effect of these collars is a trimness not unlike the Puritan collar which we see in old pictures. But, as some one said not long ago, "A dress may look very much like the old styles, but rest assured there is something different about it." In this case it is the V or bare neck which shows as the collar spreads away from where it is fastened. With this collar are worn deep cuffs. Sometimes the material used for this collar- and-cuffs set is of double linen with frills of narrow embroidery or lace on the edge. They also often have insets of lace medallions. All kinds of cheeks—wide, narrow, irregular and wavering—are used in the spring and summer frocks. They are usually made up and down of the stripe, but there is quite a vogue this year, for those who are slender enough to allow of it, to have the stripes made up running round and round. Again the up and down is used, but with trimmings of bands running all around. In my first illustration is a simple, trim frock made up in striped blue-and white crepe. Each blue stripe is checked blue and white and through the white stripes are flecks of hevier threads. The neat side-closing of the waist corresponds with the side-closing of the skirt. The cuffs and collar are of blue crepe which matches the blue in the stripe. Small cloth-covered buttons are used down the front of the waist in groups of four, and continue twice on the skirt. The sheer frocks with many frills and ruffles are particularly smart this season and have a revival for many years gone by. Flowered organdies and lawns make these charming dresses, as well as the plain white and colors. One very pretty white organdy which I liked had a skirt slashed up at the knee-length, about twelve inches apart all around the skirt and the slashes were edged around with a continuous three-inch ruffle of the organdy. These deep slashes and scallops are very airy and pretty. © MCCALL The New Frilled Frocks, in This Instance Developed in Voile A strikingly pretty evening dress was designed by La Croix. The material used was greenish-yellow, called exposition gold, grosgrain silk striped with a broad satin stripe and three narrow ones. The bodice was perfectly straight under the arms and fitted loosely about the waist: the lower edge of the bodice was finished with a band of silk with the stripes running around. The skirt was also straight ED. at the bottom. The sleeves and yoke of the waist of black marline with a crepe-like piece of maline lace fastened in the middle of the back and extending to the end of the long sleeves. The combination of black tulle and greenish yellow was stricking and artistic. My second illustration is of flowered voile. The skirt is ruffled at the bottom and in the middle with two narrow ruffles. The waist is quite simple with three-quarter bell sleeves. A vest and collar of white voile gives the dainty touch of white which adds so much to the dainty colors of the new materials. Girdles and belts which are to be worn with the spring frocks and suits are both wide and narrow and many dresses have none at all, so for once these may be suited to the individual's taste. Wide pleated girdles are to be seen on some dresses, ending with long sash-ends, which are crossed either back or front and tied loosely, and ribbon girdles are very popular. St. Philip Church Rev. Singleton's sermon to the converts on last Sunday morning was very instructive and beneficial to them. Evangelist, Rev. G. J. W. McLemore preached his last sermon on Sunday night, after three weeks of successful revival meetings. The resurrection sermon and baptism of converts will be held at 4 a. m. on tommorrow. Easter At 11 a. m. speCIAL sermon, and baptism of infants. The converts and officials will commune at 4 p. m.; communion at 3 p. m.; Sunday School Easter exercises, at 8 p. m. special prayer. Mt. Tabor Sunday School There will be a short but spicy program rendered by the Sunday school at the Mt. Tabor Baptist Church, Sunday April 4th, in celebration of Easter festivities. The exercises will answer the call of the Foreign Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention, in its nineteenth annual rally day, the motive of which is to carry on missionary work in foreign lands.

It 4s because of this mother love and sp- penling to it that your humble servant expects some xml, however little, to be derived from these few remarks. Perhaps it may create some curiosity and comment that stich a subject should he chosen for a paper during health week, but I would ask your patience for a while until we ean see if there fs not some connection. The death rate to-day amon our peuple is almost. if not quite, double that of the white race. A great many deaths that co to swell this total, from which the rite is computed, are among the infants les than one year of age. It naturally follows then, that if Zr any means this snmber ean be jet down without a doubt, the Vieath rate will decrease. In the consideration of this sub- ject attention must be given first to the reason for the large number of deaths, sevondiy. to the remedies. if any, to be applied. Taking these up in order then, what aire the reasons for this large mortali- ty. for the enormous number of our babies that daily go to swell the Lumber af those who have passed in- to the great beyond. A large mmber of causes enter into this, but most prominently and stand- ing out like the are light on 2 corner ona dark night are the following: First. improper care of the mother before confinement.

S.Scott. 3 * Insurance Help? in reducing the amount of sickness among our people it will be necessary to know what the insurance companies are doing at. thts time to relieve the loss and suffering caused hy sickness and aceldent in this city. There are six Negro in- surance companies, and as many more white companies insuring Negro risks, operating in Georgia and all of these companies are represented In Savannah, uring the year 1914 the six ‘Negro companies paid out in the way of losses to policyholders for sickness and and accident over $61,000. covering 2 multitude of complaints from the or- dinary exe of ‘Grip’ to the more dan- xerous typhoid fever, and in accidents from a seratch on the hand to being crushed by 2 bale of cotton. All of these losses are vouched for by a reg- ularly licensed physician practicing in the community and are paid at the proper time, 1 have tibutated the sick claims received by these companies during the week of March 15th and find that the following diseases are represehted : La Grippe. 227; Pleurisy, 30; ‘Tonsil- itis, 9; Bronchitis, 18; Pneumonia, 10; making a total af 2H of diseases of the respiratory dtgans.

You will notice from the figures just read that a large percentage of the claims reported during the week in question is for what are known as pre- yentable diseases and’ have been told by competent. physicians that $0 per vent of the cases of 1a grippe and fe vers and the kindred complaints could ‘be prevented, and by. proper care of the body and attention during illness more of thg sickness under considena- tion could have been avoided as well as the'resultant pain and financial loss. see Will also note that not one cre fof tuberculosis is reported among the [523 claims yet we are told that more of one people die of this dreaded dis- ease than any other, From a financial standpoint, Tbe Hieve that yor will agree with me that the Insurance companies are do ing all in their power to replace the monetary Toss caused hy sickness and that the improvement in health con- ditions must come from the people themselves. However. there is one way, in which the companies may help that wil alleviate the amount of sickness as well as shorten the duration of most diseases, and that will, be by adopting the system now used by some of the largest insurance companies and provide trained nurses to visit the sick, to see that medicine prescribed hy the attending phystetan is taken at the proper time and preparing nourishing fool, airing, and if necessary clean ing the sick room, bathing the patient, and in a number of sanitary and intel- ligent ways to assist the patient to full recovery. This service could he furnished free of charge by, the insurance companies operating among our people and while this service would not in the beginn- ing act as a preventative of sickness. it Would certainly shorten the dura. tion of most periods of illness, besides instructing the family of the 1 mem: ber how to care for the sick raul aveld contagion. Quite often the trained arse so furnished would be able to detect a liane for the worse and could take the proper steps to counteract the change, even to the extent of recall ing the physician in attendance. pos- sibly in this nrumer Saying lives. Quite often a Sick person will have a physician preseribe for him and if the medicine does not give instant re- lief he will take some patent medicine that a willing friend will recoininend and this will canse more sickness, 1 Address on Oral Hygiene Before the Urban Local.

There has heen some distinctive motive in each century, some irresistable force has caused the people to grasp an idea and change the world by following it. ‘The 18th century was one noted for ‘the idea of freedom of thought and ‘action, liberty. The 19th century was noted for the great amassment of pri- vate wealth through the natural re- sources of this country, ‘The 20th cen- tury will be noted for the greatest Idea of all, health and wealth.

In speaking of home in connection with healt, the woman should be held doubly responsible because the mother and wife do the housecteaning, care for the children solely and help or hinder digestion, She builds the home, As a writer says: “A house is built of bricks and stones and _ posts ‘and silts and piers; But a home ts built of loving deeds that stand a thousand years, © A house, tho’ but a simple cot, within its walls may hold, Ar home of priceless beauty rich in Tove’s eternal gold. mouth mixes with the food and sa- liva and when swallowed carries quant- ities of infectious matter into the stom- ach, This pus prevents the stomach from acting and the food is not prop- erly prepared for the intestinal tract.

Instead of the leaders and those who are vitally interested in the order discussing measures that will place the order on solid foundation and for the benefit of the brotherhood, many of them are contending for offices. Even if this contention was made upon high premises there may be some excuse, but they are delving too much in personalities and vilification of each other. Where do the excellent teachings of the noble order come in? Are the guilty ones mindful of the sacred obligations taken? All of us have a certain degree of ambition, and in fact we have but slight respect for any man who is not ambitious, but we should not allow this ambition to cause us to violate all sense of propriety and bring into disrepute the order we claim to love by delving in slander and other vituperations. For the good of the order we advise the participants to discuss their differences more calmly. The Tribune has fully decided to insert no more articles of a reflective kind. The coming heavyweight pugillistic championship contest which is to be staged in Havana, Cuba, on next Monday afternoon is attracting the attention of the entire civilized world where the manly art is considered a legitimate sport. This fight, as has been true in every championship contest in this class since Jack Johnson won the coveted prize in Australia about eight years ago, will have as its principal actors a Negro and a white man, and it is this fact more than any other which gives the coming contest so much prominence. The white man is going to attempt to recover possession of the highest laurels in the pugillistic world for the Caucasian race and the Negro is going to endeavor to retain their possession. A mighty contest promised and each of the principals has millions of staunch supporters who will await the outcome of the battle with much anxiety. The white world is hoping, yea we might almost say praying, that their representative will prove the winner and bring back to them the prize which they have coveted for eight long years, while the Negro race to the man is pinning its hope in the marvelous black man who will represent them. The coming fight is perhaps the most important to the Negro race since the one in which Johnson won the championship, because should he lose there is a strong probability that the Negro will never again get the opportunity of contesting for a world's heavyweight championship. The tendency of the times seems to be to discourage inter-racial matches and, infact, in the lightweight circles the colored fighter is now practically entirely eliminated and this, too, in face of the fact that there are some Negro fighters in this class who could hold their own against the top notchers among the whites. Legislation preventing matches of this kind has been passed in several states, there is a national law against motion picture prize fights in which the principals are a Negro and a white man and we are inclined to think, since the Caucasians have had such ahard time to find a man who might even have a possible chance to defeat the present heavyweight championship holder, that the Negro will be eliminated from the game entirely should the present champion lose next Monday afternoon. As a race we are truly proud of Jack Johnson's standing in the pugillistic world, though we by no means approve of some of the e-capades in which he has figured outside of the ring and would that they were more in keeping with our ideals. But, Jack Johnson is human, he is no different from scores of white men who are and have been engaged in the profession in which he has achieved so much success and we truly hope that his efforts next Monday will retain for him the heavyweight championship of the world. Negro Granted License to Operate Moving Picture Machine. Undaunted by the unpleasant experience of being hauled up before the city recorder, because he did not have a local license to operate a moving picture machine, Mr. K. A. Jackson, of Carrollton, Miss., who is in the city with a picture, entitled "Bunyan's Pilgrim Progress, went before the city examiners on Wednesday at the fire department's headquarters and passed a most creditable examination covering every phase of the knowledge necessary for operating moving picture machines. Mr. Jackson, so far as is known, is the first Negro to receive such a license in this city, and his eight years' experience in operating machines of this kind stood him in excellent stead during the rigid test he was carried through. Mr. Jackson was told that he might engage a white operator during his stay here, but this did not particularly appeal to him so he decided to take the examination, feeling confident of his ability to pass it creditably. The license granted him is for thirty days with the privilege of extension. This week Mr. Jackson was to have shown his impressive pictures at several of the leading Negro churches, but the distasteful little episode with the city authorities prevented this, most of this week's dates being carried forward to next week. The following are some of the engagements which will be filled by him: Monday, April 5th First African Baptist church, St. Julian and Bryan streets. Tuesday, April 6th, Mt. Bethel Baptist Church, Bryan street. Wednesday, April 7th, St. Phillp A. M. E. Church, West Broad street; at which church Bishop G. W. Macklemore will preach while Pilgrim Progress is being presented. Thursday April 8th, St. Paul C. M. E. Church West Broad street. Friday, April 9th, First Tabernacle Baptist Church Alice street. Admission 10 cents to all. Mr. Jackson can be seen at 506 W. Park avenue. Esther Searlett Wins Doll at Hazzard Hill Public School. $ ^{a} $ Waycross, Ga.—On last Monday the patrons and friends of Hazzard Hill Public school were most delightfully entertained with a spring concert by the school. The program began promptly at 8:30 o'clock and ended at 9:15. The children all showed every evidence of having been excellently trained and not a hitch occurred in the very pleasing and beautiful exercise. The program which was witnessed by a very large crowd, was as follows: 1. "Jolly Soldiers' Drill." 2. Recitation, "Possum", Johnnie Mc Keever. 3. Solo, "I'm going to tell on you," Annie B. Brown. 4. Recitation, "Johnnie Sleepyhead" Logan Cooper. 5. Dialogue, "Bold for the Right", three boys. 6. Hoop drill. 7. Recitation and costume, "Old Kentucky Home. 8. Operetta, "Awakening of Spring." 9. Duet, "Bluebell's Dream," two girls. 10. Physical culture drill. Prof. R. R. Holmes of the Reidville school gave a short talk after the program. He commended the teachers for their efficiency and complimented the school on the excellent work it is doing under the women teachers. At the conclusion of his remarks, the principal, Mrs. M. E. Reddick, selected a non-partisan spectator to count the votes in the school contest. The number of votes was as follows: Bernice Starling, 289 votes or $2.89; Frank Moody, 1,189 votes or $11.86; Esther Scarlett, 2,145 votes or $21.45; total votes 3,620 or $36.20. The doll, a beautiful "high brown" Negro doll, was therefore presented to Esther Scarlett, who had the largest number of votes. The money raised in the contest will be used to pay for the piano which the school is buying. The teachers of Hazzard Hill school are Mrs. M. E. Reddick, Miss A. W. Lindsay and Miss M. L. Mayrant, both of Savannah, and Miss Mabel Parlan, of Brunswick. A Letter by Booker T. Washington New York City—The April number of Everybody's Magazine will contain a special letter by Dr. Booker T.

In sad but loving remembrance of my beloved husband and father, B. W. MITCHELL, Who departed this life April 3, 1914. You are gone but not forgotten, Never shall our memory fade; Sweeter thoughts shall ever linger, Round the grave where you are laid. We loved you, yes we loved you, But Jesus loved you best; And He has sweetly called you, To His eternal rest. When we speak your loving name, Our eyes with tears are wet; Oh! Mitchell how we miss you, And love cannot forget. Wife, Mrs. B. W. Mitchell Master Joseph O. Mitchell, Son. In memory of my beloved husband EDWARD J. ROWELLS, Who departed this life in New York City, April 5th, 1913. Oh! dearest. sweetest husband, Since you have passed away; It seems not that it was two years ago, But only yesterday. When e'er I speak your loving name; My eyes with tears are wet, Oh! husband how I love you, And love cannot forget. The Lord took you from me, It was His holy will; And left in my heart a vacancy, Which no one else can fill. You are gone but not forgotten, Never shall my memory fade; Sweeter thoughts shall ever liuger, Round the grave where you are laid. Loving wife, In sad but loving remembrance of my dear wife and loving mother, Mrs. ELIZA HENDERSON, Who departed this life one year ago today March 30th, 1914. A bitter cup, a shock severe. To part with one we loved so dear; Our loss is great we'll not complain, But trust in God we'll meet again. Dearest loved one we have laid the e In the peaceful grave embrace; But thy memory will be cherished, Till we see thy loving face. Mr. Stephen Henderson, Husband. Mrs. Lula Andrews, Daughter; Mr. James Henderson, son Mr. Benjamin Andrews, Son-in-law. In sad but loving remembrance of our devoted mother, Mrs. PENA BARNARD Who departed this life March 29, 1914. Oh! mamma how distinctly we remember, That twenty-ninth day of March; When you left us that morning, We did not think it was your last. Our hearts have been sad ever since, For there is no one like a mother Home is not the same, We miss you every day, As though it was yesterday. There is a vacant place in our home, That can never be filled; We miss your kind and loving care, What is home without a mother? But we can only bow to the will of God And say, Thy will be done. The voice at mid-day came, She started up to hear; A mortal arrow pierced her frame, She fell, but felt no fear. Her children, Mrs. H. B. Muse, Springfield, Mass. Mrs. N. E.

Sometimes, we say and turn our eyes, Towards the far hills of paradise, Someday, sometime, a sweet new rest; Shall blossom flower like in each breast, Sometime, someday our eyes shall see, The face kept in memory, Some day their hands shall clasp our hands. Just over in the morning land. Frances Mason. In sad but loving memory of our dear mother, Mrs. MARY SWEET Who slept peacefully away April 4th, 1914. Dearest mother thou hast left us here, Thy lost we greatly feel; But 'tis God that have bereft us, He alone our hearts can heal. Yet again we are going to meet you, When the days of life are fled; And with joy in heaven to greet you, Where no farewell tears are shed.

One precious to our hearts has gone The voice we loved is stilled; The place made vacant in our home, Can never more be filled. Our Father in His wisdom called, The boon-His love had given; And though on earth her body lies, The soul is safe in heaven. Farewall wife, farewell mother. Peaceful be thy rest; Slumber sweetly, God knew best, When He called thee home to rest. Farewell wife, farewell mother, We must say our last farewell; Till we meet beyond the river.

A. W Keen, Prop. Live so that at your death the world may say, "A pillar of strength and beauty has fallen." Masonry's truest exemplars are those whose lives are purest and best. Political and religious dissentions have no place in Masonic Lodge. Banish them. Stand firmly by what is right, let the consequences be what they may. One of our exchanges suggests that the visible tokens brotherhood are the hearty hand clasp and the welcoming smile. If all lodges would apply this to the visitor it would not be long until the much boasted theory of the universality of Freemasonry would be invested with a new meaning. Power and success wait upon the brother who magnifies his office.—The Masonic Standard. Masonic friendship is founded upon brotherly love. If it is so founded, misfortune or disaster cannot weaken nor destroy it. It is concreted in David and Jonathan. When the crucial test comes, it is not found wanting. When a brother is in want or distress, then it empties itself in helpluteness. How pitiable is the condition of that Mason who lies down when his brother is set upon by his enemies! Love is not only the strongest thing on earth, but it is the only emotion that prevails in heaven.—Masonic Home Journal. No man, however lofty or however humble, can isolate himself up in the dark cells of his exclusiveness, determine to live for himself alone. No man, however obscure, can truly say that he is so unknown and so unimportant that he can contribute nothing to enlighten and benefit humanity. He cannot know that, and ought not to assume it. Let the Mason turn his mind steadily to the needs of others and he will be blessed. Let us do some kindly act toward our neighbor while he is yet alive, and not procrastinate until death calls him, that he may know that we have his interest at heart as well as our own.—Selected HEALTH PROCLAMATION The following timely proclamation has been issued by Grand Master Butler: Greetings:— Peace be unto you is the prayer of your Grand Master and ever shall be until he crosses the bar that separates him, and us all, from that unknown eternity. This is health week for the twelve or more millions, of colored people in America, and as our members and their families are a part of these millions and as your Grand Master is a physician, he feels it his duty to call the member's special attention to this important matter. The Grand Master is in favor of health week, as proposed by Dr. Booker T. Washington, but he would urge Masons and their families to, have fifty two health-weeks each year and 365 health days in each year. We are dying too fast, as a race, and we should do all in our power as an order and as Masons to reduce that enormous death rate; we can do it and we must do it; hence this communication is intended to help you as a lodge and help your families through your lodges along this time. We are especially interested in this matter because it means more than we think to die. Since our last grand session in June 1914 we have lost by death 121 brothers; that means 121 homes left fatherless or without a brother or son. Many of these deaths are due to preventable diseases, which means that if these brethren had had proper warning most of them would be living today. First, since last June we have lost 121 brothers at a cost to the grand lodge in dollars and cents (to say nothing of their service) $22,000.00. The average funeral expenses to the lodges $2,000.00; the average doctor's bill $2,420. making a final loss to the Masons alone and their families in nine months $28,020.00. This should cause us to pause and think. Second. What can the lodge and members do to prevent this death rate? 1st. In case of sickness call in a competent doctor. 2nd. Do not spit on the floors of your homes, lodge halls and churches. 3rd. Do not sit in draughts; but ventilate your homes, halls and churches. 4th. Bathe often, drink plenty of water, keep bowels regulated, don't sit up too late at night, take as little patient medicine as possible and do not eat too much just before going to bed. 5th. Screen your homes and halls against the flies as they spread disease. Don't buy bread, milk, pies, cakes and candles that have been exposed to flies and dust. 6th. Don't kiss persons with coughs 3 IN ONE OILS. CLEANS. POLISHES.

Keep your homes, front and back yards clean. Keep your stables and cow barns clean, as flies will go from these places to the dining tables and crawl over the food and spread filth and disease from their feet on your food, thence into your stomach and disease and death will follow. 8th. Clean out your wells once or twice a year at least. 9th. Let every member of every Masonic lodge from this day see to it that no filth of any kind be found in or about his home or premises. 10th. Let every brother join in and help his wife clean up the home; see to it that no soiled dishes are left after meals, but that they are all washed as soon after meals as possible. 11th. Use plenty of white wash on the walls of the rooms of the home, out houses and fences as lime will help to kill disease germs. Hoping in this way to reach the members of every lodge and the home of every, member and thus help to reduce the death rate of our beloved brethren and their dear families, your ever watchful Grand Master sends this message, to the lodges, the members and committees. May the grace and ever saving power of the God we serve go with this message, is the prayer of your Grand Master. The Grand Lodge meets at our home at Ameriens, June 22, at 9 a.m. when I hope to see you representative face to face and have him tell me and the brethren how he tried to spread this gospel of health to save the life of his members and their families. Second Baptist Church On last Sunday the pastor preached at both services. At the eleven o'clock service he preached from the subject "Justification," which was heard by many. At Sunday school there were many present. The children are being trained for the Easter exercises which will take place on Sunday evening. They have a very interesting program. You are cordially invited to hear them. The B. X. P. U. met at the usual hour. The lesson was taught by Miss Inez Sampson. A nicely arranged program was also rendered. The following program will be rendered at the meeting tomorrow: Recitation, Miss Gladys Moultrie; instrumental solo, Miss Inez Sampson; recitation, Miss M. Moultrie; solo, Miss Alfreda Cannon; paper, Mr. Earnest Wright; recitation, Miss Mabel Williams; paper, Mr. Fred Rowlings; remarks, Mrs. Justine Patterson. At the evening service the pastor preached a powerful sermon on "Adoption." Visitors and strangers are cordially invited to worship with us. Services tomorrow as follows: prayer meeting 5:30 a. m. preaching 11 a. m., Sunday school 3:30 p. m., B. Y. P. U. 6:30 p. m., children's exercises 8 p. m. PROGRESSIVE NEGRO TOWN FOR ALABAMA Selma, Ala., March 30-Through the successful efforts of Dr. L. L. Burwell and Prof R. B. Hudson, principal of Clarke's College, plans for the establishment of a model Negro community have been launched. Negotiations have been closed for the purchase of two thousand acres of rich, black prairie land situated about four miles north of this city. A recent issue of the Montgomery (Ala.) Advertiser has the following to say regarding the project: The plan is to lay out a town and cut out the balance of the land into ten-acre and twenty-acre farms. The farms will be sold at the lowest price and at the easy terms. As soon as a purchaser has made his payment on the farm he will be given a warranty deed to a lot in the city. However, each owner of a farm must till his farm and not give up the farming as soon as he secures his city plot. The principal aim of the promoters is to foster diversified farming among the Negroes of the county and to alleviate as far as possible the present system of "tenanting" farms belonging to white people. Plans have already been drawn for a modern school building and contracts will be let just as soon as it has been assured the promoters that the Negroes will support the movement. Churches will be built and everything to make the place an up to the minute city. The land is situated on the Southern Railway and on a fine pike road. Overflowing wells dot the entire 2000 acres and the country is ideally situated to the growing of truck crops. Being only four miles from Selma and Selma's markets, the promoters point out it will be an easy matter for the residents of the tract to bring their products into the city, where they will find a ready market.

Text of the Lesson, I Sam. xvi, 4-13. Memory Verses, 12, 13—Golden Text, I Sam. xvi, 7—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. It is certainly restful to be in the hands of Him who worketh all things after the counsel of His own will (Eph. 1, 11) and who says, "I will work, and who shall let it" (hinder, or turn back) (Isa. xlii1, 13), provided we have no will of our own in the matter. Even Samuel seems not to have been fully one with the Lord concerning Saul, for he continued to mourn for him after the Lord had rejected him, so that the Lord had to say to him, "How long wilt thou mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel?" When we can say, "Even so, Father," "Just and true are thy ways," because we are certain that "As for God, His way is perfect" (Matt. xi, 26; Rev. xv, 3; Ps. vii1, 30), we have entered upon a restful life. Then its continuance depends upon our living in the perfect will of God moment by moment. Note the messages to Samuel in verses 1-3: "I will send thee to Jesse. I have provided me a king. I will show thee what thou shalt do. Anoint unto Me him whom I name unto thee." This left nothing for Samuel but simple obedience to Him who was managing. Yu should look as we go as coming. Notice the heels of your shoes, when the heels are twisted they will throw your shoes out of shape, which makes a bad appearance when going. In repairing your shoes we make it our special business to restore them to their original shape, no matter how bad they are twisted. Ladies and children shoes are given special attention. All work is carefully looked after by me before going out. J. H. WASHINGTON But Samuel had an objection, "If Saul hear it he will kill me." The Lord quieted him, and matters proceeded, and Samuel did that which the Lord spake and came to Bethlehem to meet Jesse and his sons (verses 4, 5). The elders of the town seemed to regard Samuel almost as God Himself or they must have had very guilty consciences, for they trembled at his coming until assured that he came peaceably. Those who are walking with God need have no fear of a visit from a man of God nor of the coming of the Lord Himself, for it is possible so to abide that we shall not be ashamed before Him at His coming (I John ii, 28). Having called Jesse and his sons, Samuel thought that he saw in Eliab a fit successor to Saul, but the Lord told him not to look on his outward appearance (verses 6, 7). When we consider Eliab's contemptuous and uncalled for treatment of David a little later (xvii, 28) we do not wonder that the Lord refused him, for He knew what was in man (John ii, 25). Seven of Jesse's sons passed before Samuel, all who had come to meet him, but the Lord's choice was not among them, so that Samuel had to ask, "Are here all thy children?" Then he learned that the youngest had been left at home to keep the sheep, and Samuel said, "Send and fetch him, for we will not sit down till he come hither" (verses 8-11).

Some day in the kingdom we may talk with him about that particular day. I never read or write this story or think about it that I do not rejoice to see the Lord's way in it. The young man left at home because he was seemingly of no account on this great occasion, and then all the older brothers set aside and compelled to wait till he came, and then to see Samuel take the horn of oil and anoint him in the midst of his brethren.

"The old prophet must be in his dotage." There is nothing to it, for they did not hear the Lord say to Samuel, "Arise, anoint him, for this is he" (verses 12, 13). The comfort I get from it is that the Lord looketh on the heart, not on the outward appearance, and when he wants you for any work He will find you and get you there in spite of all obstacles. It is ours to keep quietly on minding our sheep, like David or Moses; thrashing our wheat, like Gideon; plowing, like Elisha; doing housework, like Mary of Nazareth; mending nets, like Peter and John, or whatever else is our regular occupation. The Spirit of the Lord came upon David, but departed from Saul because of Saul's failure to obey (13, 14). God allows us to choose, and if we choose the evil and not the good we have no one to blame but ourselves. By the advice of Saul's servants he sought some one to quiet him when the evil spirit was upon him, and they recommended David, the son of Jesse, as a cunning player on the harp, a valiant man of war, a prudent man, a comely man, and they also said that the Lord was with him (verses 15-23). Being sent for, Saul loved him greatly and made him his armor bearer. How strange it all seems! God moves in a mysterious way. What a wonderful chapter! How can we refrain from saying, "Lord, take control of me and all my affairs and work out in and through me all thy good pleasure." It would seem that Jesse was an old man at this time, and his family consisted of eight sons and two daughters (xvil. 12; I Chron. ii. 16), but David's mother's name is not given.

Man who Thinks Usually Wins And this is exactly the mission of the docal heanet of the National Ne- gro Lusiness League. It is not the man who keeps everlastingly at it without any aim or purpose in view, who nccomplistie, the most for him- self or for anyoue el-e, as to that mat- ter, but, on the contrary, the great- est business edmeation or what not, is that man who has had training of thought atoug the particular fine in which be is enzaged., and without _ thought be is a failure to begin with. Therefore, the Negro Budiness Lague pleads with ouc men engaged in their partienlar lings te think, think, think, ‘Every Man Should Count for One There was a day when the other fellow Inoket over and condoned the Mmonnmental errors committed hy the members of tlie ree enzaged: in busi ress, bate thay lay Tuts irtysed and gone forevet.
