Daniel in an organ recital at St. Philip Church, West Broad and Charles streets. Those who were present at the first appearance of Mr. Daniel under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A about a month ago have not ceased talking about the excellency of the music which he produced on the beautiful or- which he produced on the beautiful oman of St. Philip and it is expected that Mr. Daniel's second recital there tomorrow will attract a packed house.

THE BUSINESS LEAGUE Perhaps nothing has contributed to the present general interest which the members are taking in the regular meetings of the Business League so much as the series of lectures being delivered by various members on their respective lines of business. Next Friday night, Mr. Edgar C. Blackshear, clerk of the Wage Earners Bank, will deliver an address on "Savings Accounts," in general and the "Christmas Club," in particular. Mr. Jesse Brinson will tell us about "Painting and Decorating." All members are cordially invited to be present at 8:30 o'clock. If your son distinguished himself in the races last week, why not let your friends in other cities know it by sending them a copy of The Tribune containing results of the races? STOCK COMPANY HOLDS ELECTION OF OFFICERS Company Will Enter Briskly Into Local Business Affairs. At a recent meeting of the Commonwealth Loan and Realty Company, a newly organized loan and investment company of this city, the following stockholders were elected as directors: T. J. Carter, W. H. Norman, Chas. M. Matthis, L. L. James, G. W. Heywood, A. J. Williams, J. W. Handy, J. S. Causey, J. W. Powell, P. L. Bowen, Geo. L. Smith, D. Thomas, W. H. Logan and H. T. Singleton. The newly elected board was immediately called to order and elected the following officers: T. J. Carter, president; W. H. Norman, 1st vice-president; L. L. James 2nd vice-president; Chas. M. Matthis, treasurer; H. T. Singleton, secretary; G. W. Heywood, auditor; F. B. Pettle, attorney. The promoters of the company are loud in their sentiment that a gigantic, loan and investment corporation should be organized in this city with the main object of encouraging Negro business with its financial support, and to simplify the loaning system that the ordinary wage earner can make the smallest loan with the less amount of trouble. ATLANTA UNIVERSITY NOTES Atlanta, Ga.—On Friday night May 14th, will occur the annual vocal and instrumental concert. The chief feature of this concert will be the rendition or Colredge-Taylor's "Hlawatha's Wedding Feast" by the Atlanta University chorus under the direction of Sidney Woodward. This concert has long been anticipated by music lovers of the city, both because of this great work which is to be given, and because of the other excellent numbers which will be rendered, both vocal and instrumental. The report of the Atlanta University conference on "Mörals and Manners Among Negro Americans" is just off the press and will be circulated shortly. It presents a thorough study of this great question and records an encouraging advance of the race since the last study on this subject was made ten years ago. New scenery and costumes are being made for the senior class play under the direction of the instructor in elocation, Miss Edwards. The play which is entitled "Damon and Pythias" promises to be one of the best in recent years. It will be rendered on Friday night May 21st in Ware Memorial Chapel of Atlanta University. The spring frolic of the Oglethorpe school of Atlanta University to be given at commencement time will be in the nature of a pageant in which the spring flowers are impersonated, the children of the kindergarten department will assist in the production. The baccalaureate sermon at Atlanta University will be given by Pres. Ware on Sunday May 23rd and the commencement-exercises will occur on Wednesday May 26th. The Atlanta University baseball team closed its season with the most exciting and best game of the season when it played an eleven inning tie with Morehouse on the latter's campus with a score of 5 to 5. Jefferson a varitable fiend for the pitching staff hurled for A. U. and struck out eleven men and gave up seven hits, while the A. U. team gathered eleven hits from Nance, who fanned only four. The greatest moment of the game was when Ira Holder was sent in as a pinch hitter for A. U. in the ninth with two men out and Morehouse one run ahead. He hit a long home run to right field and the two well-matched teams could not break the tie in the later innings. Dear Editor: We, the husband and children of the late Mrs. Ophelia McIntosh, from the deepest recesses of our sad hearts, thank most profoundly our many friends both colored and white, for the many significant courtesies: beautiful flowers, artistic designs and sincere sympathies extended us in our bereavement. BISHOP TURNER DEAD Bishop H. M. Turner died Saturday while on his district in Canada. The remains have been carried to Atlanta and the funeral will take place next Wednesday. Full account next week.

Never were such races run in this city as were witnessed at the annual Negro school children's athletic meet which was held at the ball park on Friday afternoon of last week. Never before was there such a tremendous crowd gathered here at any sporting event as appeared at the races and never before was there such a manifestation of enthusiasm shown at the ball park as was seen on May 7th when a contestant flashed across the tape a winner. The vast crowd of over five thousand persons cheered vociferously and wildly the winners of every race, irrespective of the colors under which the lucky finishers were running, and the appearance of a streamer of yellow, blue, crimson, purple, maize or some other color word by the spectators, was the only outward sign of their favorite school. Never was a winner in any sort of contest in this city accorded such an ovation as the boys and girls received who won points for their respective schools on Friday afternoon of last week. From a general observation the meet was not only the largest of the kind ever held in this city and state among Negro schools but the most interesting and closely contested. However, from a purely athletic standpoint, on account of its magnitude and a few unforeseen difficulties the meet was not up to the standard of perfection set last year. The three hundred and fifty youthful athletes, both boys and girls, who were pittying their prowess against one another in an effort to place their respective schools at the top of the A HENRY PARLINS.'

In this respect the bright- and agile boys and girls from Swangin school were most successful and for the first time in the history of the races a private school has carried off the coveted honors and will be hailed as champion for at least one year. But, it was not until after a mighty thrilling afternoon's program of events had been run off and the official scorers had carefully gone over the results that the honors could be conferred upon the little private school which is located on west Waldburg street, for the proud wearers of the yellow of the West Broad Street school, the mighty crimson runners of the Cuyler Street school and the little representatives of the Catholic school were strong in every race and at the close of the day only a few points separated them from the winners. The accomplishments of the afternoon brought to light a new individual champion among the schools. As in the school championship so in this individual honors, the Swangin school figured foremost, for it was Henry Parlinls of this school who gathered in $11\frac{1}{2}$ points thereby carrying off this honor. Parlinls ran particularly well during the day and his winning gave evidence of his excellent physical condition. In every race in which he entered he was able to secure a place, but his best performances were in the 120 yards high hurdles, which he took in excellent time, and the 220 yard dash. Sharing honors with Parlinls was John Roberts, running under colors of the Urban League team, who won more points than any other individual contestant in the races. Roberts added $14\frac{1}{4}$ points to the winnings of his club and proved the bright and shining star of the afternoon for the open events. His performances were very gratifying to his large number of admirers and substantiated their claim that he is one of the best all round athletes ever produced in this city. The club championship was a run away for the Urban League team. They were able to score heavily in all of the open events and succeeded in gathering 25 points. The team from the Georgian State College bore watching throughout the day and brought up second place among the clubs, securing 25 points. The Savannah Home Association team and the Y. M. O. A.

Church, Franklin Square on Last Sunday Afternoon— The annual Thanksgiving service of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows was held at the First African Baptist Church, Franklin square on last Sunday afternoon. The lodges assembled at the Duffy Street hall and married in procession to the church. The members of the Household of Ruth met in the basement of the church. The exercises began about 3:30 o'clock and was largely attended by members of the order and visiting friends. The program at arranged was carried out and the participants acquitted themselves well. The order donated liberally to the church, choir, sexton and the Rev. William Daniels who preached the sermon. The following is the address delivered by Mr. J. C. Lindsay, the principal speaker of the occasion: I fully appreciate the delicacy of the position that I occupy to-day. I feel that you do not expect me to enter into any detailed account of the birth and life history of the great founder of the great order that you and I are here to give thanks for to-day. I find that this has been completely and admirably presented to you by the great orators who have spoken to you upon former annual thanksgiving occasions. It's repetition by me would be a poor rehearsal of that which I am sure is better known to you than I can tell. To begin with, permit me to say: "Don't forget it, remember it, treasure it, and refer to it often for those standards and ideals and principles which alone can enable us to perform our fraternal obligations in a manner comparable to the way in which he perform his." Therefore. Upon this glorious thanksgiving day, the great and renowned family of Odd Fellows all over the civilized world have met to pay homage to the great and good giver of every good and perfect gift. We had handed down to us by the pioneer fathers of this time honored and ancient fraternal organization, this motto: "Friendship, Love and Truth," a precious and almost priceless legacy of which we all are proud, and, indeed, have a perfect right to be. Our organization, my brethren, is different in a good many respects to any other into which the black man is allowed membership. In our time honored, ancient and beloved fraternal organization, color is no barrier. The color of the skin, the texture of the hair cut no figures when it comes to the fundamental principles of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, which has the world for its domain, the uplift and blessing of humanity its object and alm, and friendship love and truth, as its impregnable motto. This thought brings us to this glorlour and joyous occasion, which brings together today, some of the very best men and women that this or any other country ever produced, whose friendship has been welghed in the balance and found not wanting; whose love and charity have been put to the crucial test and have come out all right; whose standing in the community for truth and veracity is unquestioned, and whose means, tho scant at times, have gone willingly and cheerfully to the relief of a sick, needy or a distressed member. My brethren, when we think of the glorious history of our grand and noble order, we have much for which to feel proud. For more than seventy years on the American continent, the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows has been engaged in the glorious work of blessing mankind, regardless of race, color or nationality. The doors of our ancient and honorable order have stood wide open for these three quarters of a century to that man or woman making application for membership, vouched for by a member of good and regular standing, provided the applicant came to the altar with sound body, sound mind, and with a good and unimpeachable character. The work of our grand and noble order, as we all know, is purely charitable. To verify this statement, it will only be necessary for us at this juncture to call the attention of the true and hearty linkmen to these memorable and much cherished words: "I do by your command open this lodge for the relief of sick brethren and for instructions in the principles of the order." Notwithstanding, these glorious, inspiring and almost, if not entirely, Central Park College Commencement SCHOOL CLOSES SUCCESSFUL YEAR Splendid Crowd Present at Closing Exercises—Prof. Maxwell and Faculty Endorsed. Despite the inclement weather of the past week, Central Park Institute closed its first school year with splendid success. The baccalaureate sermon was preached by Rev. R. H. Singleton at St. Philip Church at 4 p. m., on Sunday. A splendid audience was present and the services were greatly enjoyed. The commencement-exercises were held at the institute on Wednesday. The program was splendidly arranged. The commencement address, delivered by Dr. R. R. Wright, president of Georgian State College, was a great effort and will be long remembered by the student body and visiting friends. Remarks were made by Revs. J. A. Hadley, Mr. Geo. S. Williams, L. A. Townsley, B. J. Ross,'S. B Shaw and R. H. Singleton. Prayer was offered by Rev. B. S. Hannah and benediction pronounced by Dr. C. C. Cargile. Among the trustees present were Drs. G. P. Prescott and Wm. Gillard. The scholarship prize of $5.00 in gold, given by Rev. R. H. Singleton, was won by Miss Rosa B. Mason, of Ashburn, Ga. The trustees meeting was held on Tuesday at St. Phillip Church, Bishop J. S. Flipper presided.' Besides the bishop, Drs. W. A. Fountain, chancellor and L. H. Smith, treasurer of the university were present. After a review of the work of the school for the year a resolution was passed endorsing the work of President Maxwell and faculty and they were recommended for re-election at the general board meeting. Rev. R. H. Singleton and a number of the ministers and friends will attend the funeral of Bishop H. M. Turner in Atlanta, Ga. next Wednesday. Bishop Turner died in his Episcopal district in Windsor, Ont., Can., on last Saturday, May 5th. MOREHOUSE DEFEATS MORRIS BROWN With Bill Kennedy pitching air tight balls in pinches, the Morehouse Tigers met the strong Morris Brown Glants and won a 5 to 4 victory, thus vanquishing the proud champions of two seasons. Morehouse had vivid recollections of past disasters when Morris Brown was going at tip top speed and showed little mercy when Wiley was sent in to face them, for hits rattled off the Tigers bats in riotous profusion and he was banished after the fourth because once the Tigers had tasted blood they were hard to check. With the score 5 to 1 in favor of the Maroon, "Cyclone Williams" essayed to land the contest into the winning column; on the whole he pitched masterly ball, the lead proved to big a handicap for the veteran to overcome. The whole Morehouse team played a great game until the last man was out. This game marks the first defeat that has been given the Morris Brown aggregation by any college in this city for two years. Morris Brown.....100 001 200-4 6 0 Morehouse.....004 100 00x-5 9 0 Batterles: Morris Brown Wiley, Williams and Addison; Morehouse, Kennedy and Fisher. Summary: three base hits, Fisher, Kennedy, Houston, Lee, Williams; two base hits, Fisher; base on balls off Wiley 1, off Kennedy 3; struck out by Wiley and Williams 11, by Kennedy 10. AT THE Y. M. C.

Church, West Broad and Charles streets, on tomorrow afternoon at 4:30 p. m. promptly. An entirely new program will be given. Organist Daniel is giving the association this return engagement after many requests for another were made by those who witnessed the first performance of a few weeks ago.

Never have the theaters been more crowded or the gowns more beautiful, but activities center around the few chosen restaurants, where smart New Yorkers dine and dance. As if to snatch the last drop of pleasure before dashing off to country homes and summer hotels, every bell and beam of the metropolis treads the measure of the maxixe, the one-step and fox-trot to the accompaniment of orchestra music intermingled with the clink of dancers' glasses, the quaintness of the dancers' dresses oddly contrasting with the modern setting of white covered tables and black-clad waiters hovering near. Although Dame Fashion, mindful of the subway, perhaps, he-itate to spring the hoop skirts in daytime dresses, she spares no fulness in the dance frock. Skirts short in length, billow and flare like sails in the wind, as the wearers dip, swing and he-itate in the measures of the dance; their width is accentuated by the tightness of the waist and the closeness of the coiffure, giving a flower-like formation to the modern silhouette. So varied are the colors, the scene becomes a human kaleidoscope, the shifting figures bringing first pastel and then vivid shades of the fore. O. McCaff. Taffeta and lace in an Up-to-Date Application of the Caroline Mode One girl in particular attracted my attention, as I watched the dancers the other night. But for her auburn tresses cropped close in the "Castle clip", she might have been an 1850 instead of a 1915 girl, so tight was her pointed bodice and so full her circular skirt. Her throat, white as the taffeta of which the gown was made, rose above the round decollete. This was edged with fine Chantilly lace and scattered flowers, woven in pure silk and blue, seemed purposely placed to catch and hold the color of her eyes, so perfect was the match. The very simplicity of the frock made it attractive; its only trimming, besides the lace, was a heavy cord covered with silk, edging the bottom of the bodice and looped garland-fashion on the skirt. Not a detail of the costume was overlooked, from her white stockings and black slippers, laced high-with ribbon, to the Grecian band that held her hair; a telltale sway of the billowing skirt told as plain as words, as she glided away, that there was a hoop petticoat beneath—not the taped creation our grandmothers knew, but an ingenious arrangement introduced in the early winter, consisting of a net petticoat, cut to come just below the knee, medium in width and finished at the lower edge with a reed. These are sometimes shown in the shop's festooned with flowers that show through the sheer net dresses. Though entirely different in cut and texture, an equally charming dress was worn at a fete in the mid-week, by one of the seasons debutantes noted for her delicate Dresden-like beauty. With her golden hear wound low in the neck and a single curl over her shoulder, she appeared a perfect crinoline bell in her white net frock over aslip of white charmeuse covered with white chiffon. A bodice of yellow falline silk, draped in front and held with roses, gave a touch of color which was carried out in tiny embroid- ered, wreaths on the guimpe and skirt; below the wreaths on the skirt, scalloped of gathered ribbon made a trimming in keeping; with the U-shaped neck and full, puffed sleeves Cameo bracelets clasped around her wrists and a small fan, carried more for its beauty than real utility, made fitting accessories to the costume. The rare beauty, of this gown was emphasized by a cherry red taffeta frock worn by her friend. It seems as if these styles, borrowed from the days when Jenny Lind and Adeline Patti won their fame, give to each girl an individual grace as she sways to the rhythm of the modern music. There are Swiss frocks trimmed with brilliant silk, Dolly Varden taffetas, failles, soft charmuses, chiffons, and lace creations worthy of note. A glint now and then of a much-berufled petticoat warns us of the return of the feminine fancy, which we lost sight of for the past season or two. Now the stores have on display a complete collection of figured and plain taffetas, daunty minisooks and sheer batistes trimmed with filet and Valenciennes lace for dance frocks, and considerable space is devoted to accessories for the dance as well. Fans are especially pretty, small models, scarcely five inches tall, with ivory sticks and paper or silk uppers, quaintly printed or painted being favored with the crinoline frocks; ostrich fans give way this season to graceful models made of eagle quills. Slippers, too, are featured in satin and kid, white, black or in colors to match the dress with ribbon lacings in Grecian style or crossed straps that firmly hold the foot. Stockings, not to be outdone by slippers, have exquisite open-work designs, daintily embroidered or are made of heavy silk; oftentimes white stockings are worn with black slippers. So far-reaching is the dance fad, if we may call it a fad, having lasted two seasons, it is difficult to lose the spirit even in the daytime. Only this week, at a belated opening of a large department store in which "Parls in Her Day of Trial Sends Forth Her Supreme Fashion Message to the World" in a collection to be shown at the Panama-Pacific Exposition, such famous courturies as Beer, Doucet, Jenny, Premet, Parquin and Worth pay homage to the dance. © MCCALL A Dance Frock of Net and Faille Displaying the New Puff Sleeves In the large auditorium, crowded to its utmost capacity, it is interesting to note the enthusiasm with which the short, full-kirted, tight-bodice frocks are received. Beer offered a youthful dress in black taffeta, shirred and flounced with enchanting puffed sleeves its slumber hue is in direct contrast with the fairness of the wearer and the purpose of the dress. Douce introduces a long net sleeve in a satin gown for evening wear; while Paquin's models are conspicuous for their uneven outline at the bottom; the skirts are cut in four deep points and faced with contrasting color, the stockings match the facing, and the slippers black. Her rose gown is unusually pretty, being fashioned in three shades of rose faille, with ruffles at the lower edge of the skirt suggesting the petals of the flower. The rose shade and yellow dominate the whole exhibition—the rose appearing now vivid as a fresh June blossom and again so faint that it calls to mind the ashes of roses we once knew so well. As a fitting climax to so gorgeous an assemblage of spring fashions, Worth shows a cape of Oriental tissue in the hues of the peacock's plumage; so splendid, is its texture that it may fittingly cover the most delicate and beautiful of the dance frocks.

Sherman before he Council of Colored Churchmen, The subject assigned me might have been more appropriately assigned a theologian, one devout upon matters secured by deep research into the signification of Christianity as viewed in its broadest sense. This management, however, for some well-defined cause has seen fit to request the views of a novice, a layman, whose ideas, thought not righteously defined speculative, cannot be considered exempt from criticism. What therefore, shall be herein afterwards said, will be the out put of individual, independent ideas gleaned from personal conception of "What Christian People can do to Promote God's Kingdom on Earth." Now, as the civil law regulates the conduct of citizens, prescribing a rule of conduct, marking out their civic relationship, and regulating their actions, so also does the moral law bring to hear upon all the people, but more especially upon the people of the household of faith. Blackstone said: "Law, in its general and most comprehensive sense, signifies a rule of action, and it is applied indiscriminately to all kinds of actions, whether animate or inanimate, rational or irrational." The divine law, "Whatsoever ye would that men do unto you, do ye even so unto them," is the great flood of the righteous conception of all laws of which Blackstone's contribution is but a streamlet. This moral injunction is the great "Green Bay Tree" of legal wisdom of which Blackstone's definition is but a leaflet. This great law is the consumption, the sum total of the laws and the prophets, the laws of God. It is the rule of religious conduct, "Commanding what is right and prohibiting what is wrong." This being a fact beyond question as is seen boty by divine and common law, the truth of it should not fall like sounding brass and thinking cymbals upon the ears of christian people. Adherence of its truths and to the doctrine of right, is emphatically the greatest thing that christian people can do to promote God's kingdom on earth. This law is a general law, and "it is applied indiscriminately" to all class of Christians, if there can be such, and all classes of christian conduct, to all creeds, to all "jesus" and "jesus", to all classes and sects. From the bowels of God's mercy this law is proclaimed unto men, from His heart of compassion the infractions of this great injunction are tolerated. But by His righteousness and wisdom, His justice and equity. His judgment will be terrible and sure. A kingdom is a country or realm, the governmental functions of which are vested in the king. Of course there are kingdoms where the power of the king is not all controlling, not absolute. Representatives of the people often exercise certain rights given by laws sanctioned by kings and private councils. But it is not necessary here and now to enter upon the task of defining kingdoms and monarchies, limited and absolute. But in so much as the word kingdom appears in the text, a mention of their formation may not be out of place. Now God's kingdom is the sum total of creation, and Christ is the joint heir of God. He won or rather earned this title through the redemption. His edict, in consequence of this fact is as full of force and binding as that of the Father. His judgment is sure. The law or command of Christ is, "Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel." The Christians would promote God's kingdom on earth by obeying this command in its fullness. If one goes into the world to preach the gospel of Christ, he will meet with all classes of hearers, the rich and the poor, the high and the low, the white man, the black man, the peasant, the potentate. It is to all of these to preach. Not to well dressed and comely alone; not to the rich alone, but to the bond man and to the freeman: THE BEST PLACE In Savannah FOR MEN'S GOOD SHOES Prices $3.50 up B. H. Levy Bró. & Co. Now regardless of conditions, regardless of creed or class or claw, these are, nevertheless, subjects of the king, and in accordance with the kingly injunction, they must be ministered unto, for God's kingdom on earth can advance no more rapidly than the scope and efficacy of its promoters make it. Then it is the duty of Christians in their effort to promote God's kingdom on earth to deeply regard the units which go to round out the sum total of God's subjects regardless of class, color or condition—regardless of the fascinating lines and tinsel trappings. For we may reason as we will regarding our people or any other people as Christian races of men. We may scan the dark depths from which we have risen, and crave inspiration the higher to rise, but until we agree down deep in our souls that men on the mountain tops and and in the valleys are our brothers, and that creed and conditions do not forfeit natures claim, and that the "Go ye" knows not men save as men, and that the command is exempt from mutability and decay, until we shall know this law to do its blddings, we shall fall to contribute the element of service that will best promote the kingdom of God upon the earth. The/kingdoms of earth are not all of the worst formation. The children of the king have something above the children of the king's subjects to which to aspire; however, this, perhaps may be the bad element in the laws governing earthly kingdoms in as much as along this particular line these laws are of wide divergence to the divine law. The divine law would make all the king's subjects the children of the king and, therefore, eligible to all the glory of the father's kingdom. For it is written, "Now are we the sons of God and it doth not yet appear what we shall be. But we know that when he shall appear, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He in." And it is again written, "We are heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ." These truths enlarge in mankind the conception of the promises of God. We establish the belief that all of the glories and beauties and benefits of the great kingdom of God will be theirs when once they enter into its gates. There can be no discriminations, no exceptions, no proscriptions.

If there be ministers of the gospel, there be boys, whose ambitious reach out for the cloth. If there be priests, there be those who crave the sanctity and robe. If there be bishops, the zeal of youth directs its vision towards this illustrious position. Such cravings points ever upward and onward even to the heritage of place and power in that "kingdom not made with hands, but eternal in the skies"—the Heritage of "joint heirship" with Christ. Christians can promote the kingdom of God on earth by offering unrestricted opportunities and equal advantages to all men of the household of faith. One cannot reasonably restrict the liberties of his fellowman and hope to reap in its fullness the reward of the faithful. Religion folds the curtain of protection about christians, not classes. It lifts the veil and giveth life and light, privilege and rights unto all. It knows not color nor class nor condition, except devoutness and competency and qualification.

What christian people may do to promote God's kingdom on earth does not rest alone upon biblical injunctions, nor theological expostulations save as all of these derive their broadest signification from the edicts of the Holy Writ. For men's civil relationship to men and citizens, plays an important part in the christian work of the world. The health and safety of my neighbor where assistance and strength will insure it, is as much a christian contribution to the promotion of God's kingdoms on earth as it's a duty of a citizen to promote the well being of the state and nation. That I should live in a sphere all my own and surround myself with a class of associates of my own physical, mental and moral and material equal and exercise my christian influence wholly within this sphere, could not be rationally construed as efforts to promote. Such conduct, however, is entirely foreign to christianity. It is unuseous to its tongue and sparious to its taste and could find no habitat within its realm. But christianity serviceable in the promotion of God's Kingdom would find fulerum in the very heart of society, upon which to rest the lever of christian endeavor and with the vantage gained thereby lift every element of society to sublime heights. Christianity shorn of selfishness of creed of condition, of caste is the christianity desired in religious labors. My friends, this old world, taking the sign for the thing signified, wants men with implements of Christianity and the bravado to use them. It needs more men of the lik of him who graces this historic church of such splendid and progressive membership. Of a broad catholicity he stands in this community as a boanages of strength, a gilbraltar of christian zeal and fortitude. He fears not to soil his hands in ministering to the poor and unfortunate. He fears rather to soil his heart in failure so to do. Please with his conception of right and duty, this good man glories in the firmament of local evangelical labor as the brightest of its constellation, and heaven smiles upon the efforts of its splendid advocate. The divine injunction, "Do unto others as you would that others do unto you" is unequivocal and stern in signification. It is easy of comprehension but is a rigid application as it is wise and just and equitable. Individuals and races build about this mandates barricades of technicalities while they exercise in opposition to it without. Individuals, races and nations endeavor to another and encumber this law with pleasing platitudes of speech and dexterity and cur- ningly woven laws which give color to their infractions thereof. But gradually rising above all of these satanic mechanation, as truth must rise above error, this great law immune to vicissitude and decay; towers sublime like this last mountain of the deluge, to command to warn to punish. The white christian, the black christian, the brown and yellow christian, all come within the command. And to promote God's kingdom on earth, all classes and creeds and sects of christian men and women should combine in an effort to dispel daste and discrimination arising in consequence of race, color or condition. We should endear to establish upon earth a common ground of religion, at least, where white men and black men may stand together, untouched by baser consideration, and plead under the law and promise of God for universal salvation. Religion that does not do this duty, findeth not favor in the realm of the righteous. "Be not deceived, God is not mocked. Whatsoever you sow, that shall you also reap." If you sow caste and discrimination and prejudice and hatred, you will reap the fruits of these evils. If you sow graft and greed pride and malice, you (will) must reap the fruits of these evils. If you sow murder and lynchings and proscriptions, you must reap war and death and destruction, for as you measure to your neighbor, it will be measured back to you. Almost the entire universe is plunged into adore conflict. An hundred years of peace is marred in a bloody conflict, the lack of which history failed to record. Even neutral nations are affected by the terror and neutral subjects suffer as the result. Innocent American citizens die as the victims of foreign stupidity and anger and greed. I will not here define the cause. Suffice it to say that it is peculiar justice that visits the iniquities of the fathers unto the children. But God cannot err, the He may move in a mysterious way, His wonder to perform. Christian people can promote the kingdom of God upon the earth by contending for the establishment of peace on earth; by laboring for an administration of justice and equity to all men alike; by uniting white christians and black christians, in opposition, class legislation and contending not restrictions he removed from statues of the land, where racial discriminations exist, let the christians of the land petition the Supreme Ruler of the universe for reversal, while they demand reversal on earth, on the ground that no nation is protected to a great extent than is the protection vouche sailed by it to its most humble citizens. For each individual is a unit of the national equation and goes to make up the sum total of the nation's strength of character and respectibility. By so doing, we as christians will add our quota of influence to the promotion of the kingdom of God upon earth. To promote God's kingdom on earth, as christians and as citizens we should hasten to support the propagander of such men. We should lift them aloft so that their voices may the clearer cry out to all the people, "Prepare ye the way of the Lord and make his path straight." The work of the Urban League in Savannah is work in the highways and hedges. The organization of this great institution marks the awakening of the christian people to a crying need. In the hedges there are hundreds of human souls panting for love and light and truth, as well as for ralment and food. The voice of this great League in the midst of this forlorn people out in the hedges is like the voice in the wilderness. And their power is spent and their effort is bent in "preparing the way" that the light of spiritual support may the better find lodging. The acts of this league are the acts of christian people directed toward promoting the kingdom of God upon earth. Mark the racial change of condition during the yuletide in the city. Heretofore, in cozy homes hidden from biting frost and chilling breezes, christian people have basked under the cheerful glow and warmth Christmas fires, while their children have squandered what would be fortunes to the poor, in childish extravagances, right in the lap of dire need. Those of less fervency and greater vim and of deep insultable desire have slipped the mystifying beverage, riper from age, of guilded urns, while others tripped the light fantastic toe in the mazy waltz or exhilarating schottish, and others took off in ragtime styles the grizzly bear or turkey trot. As upon the eave of Waterloo. "There was a sound of revelry night and brave men. And Belgium Capital had gathered In Its beauty and chivalry and bright The light shown over, proud women But, hark! A deep sound broke upon them But unlike the Merry Makers of Belgium's capital, the christians of our fair city stopped and the scenes of levity shifted into scenes of service. The makers of the Urban League harked to the groans of the distressed and the dieing and combined endeavors to bring them relief. How well the League has succeeded in its relief work is an open book, and he who runs may read. Warmth of fireside and comfort of home and inducements but not sufficiently strong to balk determined christian women and patriotic men in their work of relief. In drizzling rain and cold men and women do services of relief to the needy in the yuletide and in serving they are saved. In relieving they are relieved. Such actions as this is purely the duty of christian men and women and such service is a potent factor in the christian life, and will signally aid in the promotion of the kingdom of God upon the earth. The story is told of an old colored woman who saw fit to name one of her grands Hallard, that when asked why she thus named the little fellow, remarked, "Caze Hallard is er bible name." Upon the information of the question that in reading the bible over in three languages, he had never seen the name Hallard, the old lady remarked, "Um sprized at yer mister, yoo dun read de bible all em times an aint seen, "Our father who art in heaven Hallard be Thy name?" The questioner caught the signification of the old lady's remarks and smiled loudly. And right here I would say that hallard will be the names of both promoters and founders of this great League and its work and people yet unborn will catch the dieling echoes and infusing into them new life, in each succeeding age the sound will be transmitted to the next Hallowed be thy name. Then let us as christians unite in the forward movement. Let us do our duty in the ripened fields. Let us minister to the poor about us. Let us shake from our garments cast and creeds, lcs and isms and bend our energy towards, the effectual promotion of God's kingdom on earth by unselfish toll for "We know not of the future yet Beyond the stretch of years; But in this wilderness we know, We mortals reap just what we sore If tears, we graner tears.⁽¹⁾ O God, the source of righteousness, Lead Thou our stеps aright, While yet we tread this wilderness In pain and sorrow and distress Lend Thou a kindly light. That when the watchmen summon us To duty in the sphere, We know not of O may we be Then and throughout eternity Prepared to answer, "Here." The closing exercises of the Masonic Home School begin April 9th with concert by the primary department. May 2nd, the commencement sermon was preached by Rev. P. O'Connell, D. D. of Atlanta, Ga. May 3rd, annual play a three act comedy drama, entitled, "Diamonds and Hearts." The closing exercises took place Wednesday of last week. It was largely attended. The address was delivered by Dr. H. R. Butler, of Atlanta, Grand Master of Masons, subject, "What will you do with your time." The address was timely and well received by the citizens. The school is in charge of Miss Bar- hara E. Battle, who has proven a boon to its success. It is in an excellent condition and enjoys the full confidence of the patrons and citizens of Americus. Let us be Masons at heart, as well as Masons in name. Masonry, like religion, should influence our daily lives. Let us strive to make Masonry a power for moral uplift. Our Masonic obligations should be faithfully met at all times. Masonry always stands for what is best and noblest in life. The truth about Masonry is that it is greater and better and more beautiful than the inadequate power of words can convey. This is a trite commonplace way of saying what we cannot say, but the gist of it is that that which is deepest, profoundest, most comprehensive and most beautiful in human life dwells in the spirit only. Like some sacred ineffable mystery it defies expression, and, like the peace of God, it passeth all understanding. A Masonic lodge should resemble a bee hive, in which all the members work together with ardor for the common good. Masonry is not meant for cold souls and narrow minds, that do not comprehend its lofty mission: Here the anathema against lukewarm souls applies. To comfort misfortune, to popularize knowledge, to teach whatever true and pure in religion and philosophy, to accustom men to respect order and proprieties of life, to point out the way of genuine happiness, to prepare for that fortunate period, when all the factions of the human family, united by bonds of Toleration and Fraternity, shall be but one household—these are the labors that may well excite zeal and enthusiasm.—Albert Pike. The Masons believe that God has arranged this glorious but perplexing world with a purpose, and on a glorious plan. He holds that every man sent upon this earth, and especially every man of superior capacity, has a duty to perform, a mission to fulfill, a baptism to be baptized with; that every great and good man possesses some portion of God's truth, which he must proclaim to the world, and which must bear fruit in his own bosom. In a true and simple sense, he believes all the pure, wise and intellectual to be inspired, and to be so for the instruction, advancement and elevation of mankind. That kind of inspiration, like God's omnipresence, is not limited to a few writers claimed Jews, Christians or Moslems, but it is extensive with the race. It is the consequence of a faithful use of our faculties. Each man is the subject God is its source, and frith is its only test. It differs in degrees, as the intellectual endowments, the moral wealth of the soul and the degree of cultivation of those endowments and faculties differ. It is limited to no sect, age, or nation. It is wide as the world and as common as God. It was not given for a few men, in the infancy of mankind, to monopolize inspiration and bar God out of the soul. We are not born in the dotage and decay of the world. The stars are as beautiful as in their prime; the most ancient heavens are fresh and strong. God is still everywhere in nature. Wherever a heart beats with love, wherever faith and reason utter their oracles, there is God, as formerly in the hearts of seers and prophets. No soil on earth is so holy as the good man's heart nothing is so full of God. This inspiration is not given to the learned alone, not alone to the great and wise, but to every faithful child of God. Certainly as the open eye drinks in the light do the pure in heart see God; and he that lives truly feels Him as a presence is the very voice of Delty. Albert Plike. Don't make Masonry a tool. This may sound a little peculiar, but we mean just what we say. Have you noticed, for instance during a political campaign, that men will become candidates for the degrees; and some who are already Masonry but who rarely attend lodges, become quite regular in their attendance? What caused this sudden change of heart? Is it possible that they are trying to make Masonry a stepping stone to political preferment? In other words are they making Masonry a tool? This is sometimes true, not only in politics, but in business and other matters. Now, Masonry is a great moral institution. Its object is to uplift mankind and promote fraternal fellowship. Masonry was not intended to further any man's political, business or social aspirations. Those who would use their Masonry for such unworthy purposes are doing the institution a great wrong. We repeat, don't make a tool of Masonry.—Herald. Mr. Eugene K.

Saturday May 15th, 1915 EDITORIAL NOTES The school children's races which were held in the ball park Friday of last week were not only the most successful athletic event ever held in this city but they have served to bring out many lessons which will stand the youthful athletes in good stead in future years, if they heed them. Among the most prominent lessons which they have taught to both the large and small boys is the value of proper and faithful training. It will take but a casual glance over the results of the contests to show the entrants who were in the best physical condition and who trained most faithfully. The races have now reached the stage where thorou preparation is necessary for success and most of the schools show evidence in their standings of having realized this fact. However, there is much need of more attention along this line by several of the schools and clubs if they would carry their colors to the fore. The boys more or less know now what is expected of them and what is needed to put many of them in condition is proper direction by those who from time to time act as their trainers. Another lesson which has been emphatically stamped in the minds of the schools and the public is that all entrants whether from school or club must be bona fide members of the organization for which they are running. The main object in holding the races is to teach the boys fair play, organized sport, to keep the boys in school and to afford the public an afternoon of wholesome enjoyment. Any infraction of the rules of the organization holding the meet, will be severely dealt with. It is the desire and aim of the promoters of the race to be impartial, strict and unbiased in its conduct of affairs and wherever there is found anything which is unsportsmanlike, dirty or unfair to apply the law in face of any criticism which may arise. The magnitude of the races last week was and is still the talk of the town, but what the races have been is but an indication of the big event they will be in the future. The public and the boys in the races themselves are learning more and more each year to better observe the rules governing the races and it is but a short time before every one will be enlightened in sports of this kind and will be able to intelligently follow the events as they are run off. NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE WEEKLY LETTER' By J. C. Lindsay In our weekly letters of the past, much has been said in a favorable and complimentary way in regards to the Negro in this community, as a banker, real estate dealer, insurance man, physician, grocer editor dry goods dealer, undertaker and what not, and still the pursuits in which the Negro finds himself engaged as a sharp competitor of the other fellow who for ages past has had an absolute monoply on these things, are entirely too numerous for us to attempt to undertake to mention here. Is the Negro Making Good? This is the question that the other fellow who sometimes is the next door neighbor of some of the most successful business men among us is asking. This, as one will readily see, grows out of the fact that tho the other fellow for years and years may live next door to a very successful Negro business man, will allow some other person who is a member of the same race to which he belongs, who lives in Boston, Philadelphia or some other place a thousand miles away from the scene, to have a better knowledge of the Negro business man who lives next door to him and who has lived there for years, than he himself, as well, as many others like himself in the same community. Think Your Neighbor's Thoughts There are considerable doubts as to any man being able to judge intelli- gently the worth and ability of another who holds himself absolutely aloof from the person whom he pretends to be trying to help. In order to help a person, it is necessary for the would be benefactor to know the sentiments, environments, likes and dislikes of the one in need of help. The twentieth century business Negro who through pluck, push and energy is making his way steadily up the hill of success, has long since come to the conclusion, for one to succeed, obstacles must be overcome. The admonition of the Negro Business League in this respect is, that every member of the race engaged in business be ready and willing to face difficulties, for they are as essential to the permanent development of the Negro man's business as they have been in all of the past to the other fellow. Therefore, as business factors of the race, let our business men welcome difficulties rather than expect to have smooth sailing at all times. We must encounter contrary winds. Our little business bark is liable to run aground or be dashed violently against a hidden rock or treacherous shoal, and if we are not patient, skillful and thoughtful, we shall have to unload our entire business cargo and beat a hasty retreat to the land and be forced to start over again. Negroes Owjí Fine Automobiles Among the twenty or more machines owned by the business and professional men in the city, which are rendering them such valuable service in taking them around over the city while in the discharge of their duty as business and professional men, the one owned by the Garey bakery is the most unique of them all. This fine machine with its modern sanitary arrangements for the delivery of bread, ples, cakes, etc., is an advanced step and Mr. Garey deserves what he is actually getting, namely, the support and encouragement of the people who appreciate things kept up to date. The next meeting of the League will be held at headquarters, Friday evening May 21st. Come early and bring a friend and listen to the discussion of a fine business subject. The meetings are all held at our headquarters, Wage Earners bank building. OVERHOME NEWS, BEAUFORT, S.C. By J. S.

Nance was sent in to do the twirling for Morehouse and pitched a good game. Jefferson was the selection of Atlanta Uniwersity and he made a good showing against the hard hitting Tigers. The visitors put up a hard fight showing flashes of old time form. With the score 5 to 4 in Morehouse's favor in the ninth, Ira Holder was called in as a pinch hitter and sent a terrific drive to right for a homer thus tying the score. After two more innings of hard playing neither side was able to score and night brought an end to the contest. Lewis and McKay starred at the bat for Morehouse getting three hits each, two being circuit clouts. A.

BOARD VOTE TO ACCEPT TWO DENOMINATIONS Des Moines, La., May 4—The Board of Bishops of the M. E. Church, at its session here last Saturday, voted to accept the two denominations. The response that is expected to be made by the M. E. Church South will be one of the leading topics for discussion and action at the session of the M. E. General Conference next May. IT'S handier and much safer to carry than money. In managing household expenditures a check book acts as a perpetual reminder of the difference between the income and the outgo. You can tell at a glance just what your financial resources are—how and where you have spent your money In adopting the resolution favoring the unification, the bishops made the following declaration: "We are convinced of the essential unity of the two great Methodism in doctrine in life and that their essential unity must in due season express itself in outward and organic form. Without presuming to pronounce on the terms of the union of the Methodist Episcopal Church South and such other Methodist bodies as may share our common faith and experiences. Moreover we declare ourselves in favor of such a union on terms that shall provide an ample and brotherly protection for any minority." The two denominations have existed since 1844, when the split occurred over the slavery question. The proposed union means that some provision will have to be made for the colored membership of the M. E. Church South. The M. E. Church South set apart its colored membership in 1870 into what is now known as the colored Methodist Episcopal Church. The M. E. Church has 300,000 colored members. With the growth of widespread intelligence in the race element has come a demand for more recognition in the general church. This has taken shape in a demand that some colored man or men be chosen as bishop for the colored conferences. For the past five general conferences colored ministers have been in the race for the bishopric, but none have been elected, save Dr. I. B. Scott who was chosen missionary bishop for West Africa. The plans for the reuniting of the two branches of Methodism contemplate the creation of four quadrennial conferences, one of which will contain the colored membership of the M. E. Church. This would give the race its own bishops as well as control of denominational interest affecting the Negro. The Wage Earners Savings Bank The Wage Earners Savings Bank ST.

Dear patient hands that toil so hard for me, At rest before me now I see them lying. They toiled so hard and yet we could not see That she was dying. If I could sit and hold those tired hands, And feel the warm life-blood within them beating, And gaze with her among the twilight band Some whispered word repeating, I think tonight that I would love her so. And I could tell my love to her so truly. Poor tired heart that had so many groans That death came all unheeded, o'er her creeping. How sad it is to sit here all alone; While she is sleeping. Dear heart and hands, so pulseless still and cold, How peacefully and dreamlessly she is sleeping. The spotless shroud about them silent fold And left me weeping. She is gone but not forgotten, Never will her memory fade; Loving thoughts will ever linger, Around the grave where she is laid. HER CHILDREN Miss Florena Kennedy Frank Kennedy Mrs. Susie Davis Mrs. Lucy Jones. In loving rememurange of our darling Mother Who departed this life May 13 1913 Two years ago you passed away, and little did we think when we looked into your face that night that you were going to leave us that morning You are gone but we love you the same; The vacancy in our home and hearts, Can never be filled.

Barnwell Miss Romasena Hayward Miss Ophelia Hayward In memoir of our Aunt MARY HARLEY Who departed this life May 9, 1914 We revive this day one year ago And in our memories Preserve and still keep fresh like flowers in water Those happier days, when you were with us. Thou art lost to us forever, we have lost the Auntie Thy tender eyes will never more gaze fondly into ours. Nor thine arms around us lovingly entwine; Thou art dead and gone loving aunt Thy heart is still and cold; 'Tis God who dryt our mourning tears' How dark this world would be If, when deceived and woundedhere We could not fly to thee. Neice and grand nephews M. Cade Muse H. L. Cade In memory of IN MEMORY OF MR. EDWARD W. SMITH Who departed this life May 12 1914 Our precious heart has gone, The voice we loved is stilled; The place made vacant in our house Can neyer be filled Our Father in His wisdom called The boon his love had given And though on earth his body lies, The soul is safe in heaven Farewell husband, farewell father, Peaceful be thy rest; Slumber sweetly, God know best whe He called you home to rest.

Then, no doubt, the great Grand Master of the universe will say, “In as much as you did it unto one of these, my prethren, you did it unto me.” In conclusion we are indeed thank- ful that that the founders of our grand and noble order in this country aid not consider their noble work com- plete until they had made provisions for their mothers, wives, sisters and daughters. These noble men, being, as they were, inspired and Imbued with the great and divine principles of the| Supreme Grand Master of the untverse, decide among themselves, that it was not god for them as brethren to he alohe in the glorious work of aspen Ing charity and offering a helping hand | ‘to those who might faint and fall along the wayside; therefore, in due time, after thoughtful and careful con- sideration, the women's department was organized and given the name of the Household of Ruth. In all these years these noble wo-! men haye worked steadily along down | the pathway of duty with their fathers, | brothers, husbands and sons, helping; and encourazing them to more fully carry out the universal motto of Odd Fellowship, which is so dear to the heart of every Hnkman all over the civilized world where these sublime principles are taught and practiced, Friendship, Love and Truth. We are thankful for the glorious record these noble women have made. They have proven to the entire satis-| faction of the brotherhood thrn ont | world, that no error was committed and no mistake,made when they were ziven an opportunity to walk by the sides of their mate relatives, in the glorlous work of dispensing charity | ty the unfortutte ones, whe might} find themselves in awed, Not only have our sisters proven thelr worth to the brethren in this stté iu can ef fort to cement them tozether ina fra- ternal way, and assist them’in the dis- pensing of charity, but these good wo- men headed by Mn.

And such outward signs or emblems were never intended by the-pioneer fathers to be used as a shield by any member when such a member has committed a wrong azuinst any Individual or his state. When a brother shields himself pe- hind these outward signs for a pro tection for pimself, when he has dons something ‘that he should not’ have done, is dolng himself and the, order to which he belongs a great injustice. We must protect and defend a member who does right but not a brother who we know has done wrong.

I have already given to such of the world as I can command, the stories of two of my student-friends who have dared, and because of the daring have won out. I do not know to what extent I am warranted in the betrayal of these confidencees. But my motive is worthy. This is, that these biographies may inspire the youth to dare also. And so again I quote from a personal letter: "I had a little money that I had served and I had friends upon whom I could call in an emergency. And while I never made the call, the assurance put me in the attitude for such an adventure as undertaking to work my way thru a great university. The first thing I did after registering was to make application to the Student-Service Bureau for work. There are lots of odd jobs and some steady work for which the university gives credit on term bills. In addition to this, I was willing to put myself in the attitude of wishing for work before all my friends and before the janitors. And it was thru these that I got my most remunerative work. I hauled books between libraries; I operated the stereopticon forr transient lectures; I got a steady job at this which netted me between $30.00 and $40.00 a quarter. I was messenger at the Medical school, in which capacity. I went three times a week to the abbattoir to fetch a 20-pound bucket of embryo-pigs; I did work of this sort for months. I printed bills of fare, and waited on table at the Common. I was a regular policeman at the athletic games. Finally I secured a position at the city post office, where I worked for months. "Versatility, quickness to see opportunity, and to select the best of several; willingness to work; these are the means. "I forgot to say that I read French and German to a western friend, and he paid me well." The writer of the above certainly illustrated his own point, that versatility is a prime qualification for this adventure. I have more than once said that "While expertness for the matured man is the pre-requisite for success, for the young man versatility is more important." If one could 8 7 6 2 4 UBAN LEAGUE CLUB (A. A. A.) WINNERS IN THE OPEN EVENTS. know in advance just what demand would be made upon him in the struggle for a foothold, one might begin at an early date to work along the line of his future occupation. It is a mistake for our schools to train for expertness, when the more vital need is versatility. I sent the student biographies to a college friend in the north. For him, the way is opened, and he is taking one set of experiences very different from these biographies relate. He writes: "The biographies are interesting, and show me how much I ought to appreciate the advantages before me. Everyone admires a man who works his way thru college. I have many friends who are doing it. There is one in particular at Harvard. This fellow worked his way thru the high school, and is now planning to finish Harvard course in three years, in order to give his time to a medical course. After working hard to pay his way, he still finds time to carry on outside activities and to study.

This commendation illustrates that the problem of earning an education is not a local problem, nor confined to youths of one race. It is the way by which aspiring youths everywhere climb out of one environment into another. What has been said gives in a most general way an idea of the cost of attending a great university in the pursuits of a professional course. The following more definite statement has come to my notice. "In a general way the estimate cost of attendance, runs from $400 to $715 as a liberal allowance for an annual session of nine months. This includes all necessary expenses except clothes. For $500 a year one can get on very well with reasonable economy." If one could be sure of his biggest single bill, the tuition, his weekly board bill can be earned in one or many ways, and his summer occupation should furnish the balance of his yearly expenses; and this without too heavy a drain upon his study time or his vitality. HEALTH PAPERS By D. A. Bethea, M. D. Lean people outlive the fat. A good"laugh is an anti-dyspeptic. Begin at the bottom and you won't have so far to fall. We are all-one mould but some are mould than others. That man lives long who does the most good. That man lives longest who wisely divides his occupation between brain and muscle. Cultivate an even temper, many a man has dropped dead in a fit of passion. The reason why so few marriges are happy is because young ladies spend their time in making nets, not in making cages.—Dean Swift. Next to religion there is no element so essential to success in life as a vigorous, robust health. Some men are ground down on the grindstone of life, while others are polished up. It depends on the kind of stuff.—Stewart. A Chicago physician says telling fbs lead to an early grave. And we have always heard it said that the good dled young. A sound mind in a sound body is a fitting foundation for all that is high and noble in human achievement. Physical and mental health are interdependent, hence what improves or promotes one, improves and promotes the other. A sour look, an impatient gesture, a cross word at the breakfast table.
