At 4:30 o'clock he spoke to a gathering of men ut the First African Bapt. Church, Franklin square, and 2t 6 o'clock he he addresced a Iarge crowd of women ‘at St. Philip A. M. E. Church. Mr. Stewart, who is one of the most widely known and best informed Ne- groes in the country, was very con- vineing in his addresses and his av- diences were very much Tenefited by what they heard. The subjects dis- cussed by Mr. Stewart before the men were of vital interest to them, aud he was accorded words of congratulations by his audience. He spoke in very plain languaye and his words struck home in that telling manner which he alone knows how to deliver. The au- dience was a most representative one and one of the largest ever assembled on a similar occasion, ‘The talk to the women proved equal- ly as Interesing as that to the men and the speaker took advantage of the op- portunity of advising those preSent of the many pitfalls that carry, so many young girls to the bottom.

The order among the boys was all that could be desired and they were particularly obliging and courteous to the visitors. Since the advent among them of Mrs. Rachel Moore, matron, there has ben much of the atmosphere of real, whilesome home life and par: ental influence in voxue there. Such @ condition is, of course, just what Is necessary to give such boys. a fair chance and start in Mfe.

At the sup- per hour the boys, under thelr lead- er, known among them as Big Broth- er, staged a drill and executed some interesting maneuvers, -to the delight of all. 7 Rey. W. I.

Johnson of the white local associa- tion, who will deliver a special ad- dress at 5 p. m. at St. Paul C. M,'E. Chureh. It is Indeed gratifying to note the increasing interest which the men of Savannah are taking to this wrowiug movement, ‘That there is need of suck movement as a Y. 3f. C. A, there can be no doubt. And it is belleved that such an association is about to be had in our clty. The pro- grammes now heing offered each Sun- day by the promoters of the asso- clation, are first class in every. respect. It iy hoped that a large umber of men wrill be out tomorrow to hear Secretary Johnson. A rare treat is In store for each one. x & FOUND ON STREET CAR A pocketbook was found on the street car Thursday afternoon and the owfer can receive same by calling at the company’s office.

The compatiies were all very comfortably situated and the visitors who went out were shown every courtesy from 7 o'clock in the morning to 7 at night. = . The Parade ~ The parade of the uniform rank and grand Jodge and grand court on Tuesday afternoon was beyond doubt the largest and most ‘spectacular that has taken place in this city in the past fiffeen years. West Broad street, the principal thorofare on which the crowd congregated to view the parade was one continuous mass of spectators from Liberty street ent to 37th. Every Place of vantage was occupied and as the great parade passed between the tHousands of people banked on either side of the street cheer after cheer went-up from the proud and well dressed Sir, Knights who escorted the Calan- thian drill corps and grand lodge officers. Promptly at 4:30 o'clock the pa- rade, headed by Brig, Genl. Wynn and bis staff, left the camp grounds. Next In Une came Col. C. A. Andrews with the following companies of the First Regiment; the Jocal K. of P. band, Joshua Co. B, Feay Co. A, Royal Co. C. Pluto Co., Beaufort, C. C.; Chatham Co. Fy and Ross cadets. Following these came the second regiment headed by Col. Lewis Mosley, and. bis staff and composed /of the following companies: Augusta K. of P. Band, Co. D. MA ledgerille; Co, I, Americus; Co., K, Valdosta; Co. C, Brunswick. Atlanta K, of P. band, Co. E, Atlanta; Co. M. Jackson; Co. K, Athens and Shaw cadets, Athens. Bringing up the rear was the Third Regiment headed by Col. A, IL, Stewart and staff, Macon drum corps, Co. E, Macon; Co. G, Macon; Co. I, Thomasville, Creswell cadets, Macon, and three companies formed of parts of other companies. The ladies’ drill torps of the Courts of Calanthe, conveyed in auto trucks, followed with five companies, C, A. Catlede, Ma- con; R. C. Cody, Macon, Curry, Thomasville; Pride of Columbus and Feay Co. M. Following, these were about fifty carriages with representatives. The parade as it ‘passéd thru the city elicited much favorable comment, the general opinién” being that it was the finest fraternal demonstration ever seén here. “the Prize Drill On Wednesday afternoon at the baseball park the competitive company prize drills took place. There were twelve male companies and four female companies slated for the contest but rain Interrupted the set programme and but elght of the male companies succeeded in going thru the maneuvers before the bad weather intervened. “The spectacle at the park was indeed thrilling with the sixteen companies banked up beside the south west fence of the park, the immaculate summer uniforms of the Augusta and Val- dosta companies standing out conspicuously from the great bank of dark attire ‘of all the other companies. The four bands were seated in the grand stand and played consecutively until the drill was ended by the rain. The crowd was the largest ever at the park with the exception of thit at the school children’s races last May, there being approximately 3,500 present. The down pour of rain, tho very much unwelcomed, did not in the least kill the ardor of the crowd, for all during the rain there was music galore and the great throng in the grand stand made merry while the rain fell in torrents. “Be- cause of the cessation of the contest, it was concluded next morning at the veamp grounds before about 2,000 persons. The companies all executed their commands well and the affair’ proved yery interesting. The judges of the contest were Major Norleft, Augusta; Maj. Lockhart, Macon; Col Goodwin, Macon; Capt. Ray, Athens. Col. Ferrell of Atlanta was time Keoper. + 4 ‘The Winners 5 ! ‘The winners in the prize-dril}-were, First Class—1st Damon} Co., Augusta; ia, Feay Co., Savannah; 3¥d Ansley Co, Macon.

PLAY - Excellerit Bit of Dramatic Art Shown By Club At the Pekin theatre on Friday of last week, the much heralded and wel- comed Young Men's Christian Asso- clation’s Dramatic Cinb made it inf- tial appearance in “the superb and de- lightfal comedy entitled, “For One Night Only”. The production of the play was from all view points the fin- est and most pretentious affair ever undertaken by amateurs in Sa- vannah. The acting thru the play hore every earmark of professionalism A quality which fs so enjoyable when seen in amateurs, who are so often stiff and unnatural, The plot, simple fe itself, was, in substance, the story| of a play entitled “King Titus Tatius" written by Prof. Goldwhinney, who, in turn, consents for Spartan Spotts, a,one time actor and theatrical manager, to produce the play. he play falls; Spotts ts driven off the stage. In the mean time countless amusing situations take place iu the profesvar’s office, where the frhole scene ts enacted. Prof, Gold- whiney, as-essayed by Mrj Joseph Green, was -an admirable and credit- able piece of work.> At, all times’ thé nagged and worried professor could be seen not only by the excellent delin- eation done by Mr. Green but also by his mannerism and his naturalness. Miss Nettie Houston, as the professor's wife was natural and refreshing, As the tantalizing and self willed wife she enthralled her hearers both by her fine delivery and by-the beautiful mod- ulations of her yolce, the effect of which was very marked on the pro- fessor. The pretty scene between Miss Mae Stewart, as Mrs. Marinus New- man and Mr. Matthew Jones, as Dr. Leopold Newman, were clever and amusing. As an Innocent and,anxious wife who wants to delre into the past of her hushand’s life, whether it Is discreditable or not, Miss Stewart's intonations in the many delicate scenes were most pleasing. Mr. Jones stiperbly acquitted himself thruout the Play by his quick, tense, and support acting, particularly in the climax stenes by his fine off-hand work. Miss Irma Cupley, as Paula Goldwhimey, was charmingly natural as the pro- fessor’s daughter. In her fake fainting scene, which ‘for a professional would require much talent to effect well, was most creditably doe by Miss Curley Mr. Valdore Giles, as Jack Hawkins, a young and frivolous actor, acted up to Miss Curley with whom he was in many scenes. In the card scene Mr. Giles’ work was his best. Very amus- ing and natural was bis: work in the scene when he burst forth into sub- Ume ectasy, when he was told by Ro- sa that Paula loved him. Rosa, the maid servant, as acted by Miss Marte Moore, was a very enjoyable portrayal of an innocent, soft, and childish girl, who fs ever curious, In all the scenes in which she figured, particulary the one in which she was caught reading a‘ card entrusted her to mail by the professor, she was girlish and pleasing. ‘Mr. Frank Dilworth, with bis rich and résouant volee, as Mr. Charles Haw- kins, the lawyer, pleased his hearers from start to finish. Very humorous indeed was he in the scene ir which he assisted the Goldwhinneys in pack- ing. Lastly, Mr. Wendell Tucker, wlio, as Spartan Spurgius Spotts, the theat- rical manager, is deserving of unstint- ed praise for the superior “quality of his acting and for his producing such a high class entertainment. ‘Thrudut the play Mr. Tucker, was easfly mas- ter of his part and acted with the skill of a professional at all thines. ‘The barn storming scene, Ike the cil- max scens, bore every é¥ijlence’ of dramatic éxéellence and’ shoiell’ clear: Jy the training ant! ekperlence’ whict . . . ia Boys Fall - - Before Eureka Team AT THE BALL PANK THURSDAY AFTERNOON Esciting Game Played—Score 5 to 4 Two Umpires Used The most exciting baseball game witnessed here in many years, played by local teams, was pulled off at the Athletic park Thursday afternoon be-. fore a small put enthusiastic crowd. | ‘The Home Boys went down in defest before the Eureka’s, fast aggregation. It was a good game and both teams played well, the score being 5 to 4.: In the opening inning it seemed as if the Home Boys were going to cap- ture the coveted prize, they having scored two runs in the first inning. but they didn’t, and at the winding up of the game the boys left with bowed heads and saddened hearts. | The Eurekns tied the score in the ‘third inning, making one in the first and one'in the third; and in the fifth Inning the Home Boys broke the tie by putting two over the plate. It did- not remain that way long, however, for in the sixth inning, by a wild throw by BIungin in right field to first base and repeated by Patterson in the bos to first base, the Eurekas were- able to bring in two runs and tied the score again, In the eighth inning the Home Boys had a golden opportunity to win the game but failed to turn the trick. Crosby, first man up, got first base on a pop fly which the short stop and left fieder did stunts over, stole- second and third and attempted to come home on a knock to short by Riley but was called out by his hon- or the “ump”. This was a bad decision. In the opinion of every impartial spec- tator he was safe at the plate, and then, too, the uimpire first called him safe and afierwards hanged bis de~ cision. -In. the same inning the Eu- rekas Scored one and the Home Boys failed to connect in the ninth and thus erited the Fame. y ~~ | ‘The batteries were Tatterson and ‘Ribboha:for the.

Patterson out-pitched both of the Eurelas pitchers, striking out five, while Thémas and Heyward have one a piece to thelr credit. Hits, Home Boys three; 2 base hits one, errors four.- Eurekad four hits, one 2 base hit and two errors. Two umpires were used Fiddler at the plate and Monroe on the bases. After the game the,Eureka team was taken to the Savannah Home Asso- eidtion’s reading room and entertained by the losing team. THE TRIBUNE SERENADED ‘The Macon Drum Corps, under Lead- er A.

MEETING The Sub-Committee of Management of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows of America met in Philadet- phia this week. Many things of inter- est pertaining to the Order's’ affairs in this state was expected to come up along with other chargesthat, as un- derstood, had been perferred against District Grand Secretary B. J. Davis. Those who attended the meeting ar- rayed on one side were, Dr. B. W. S. Daniels of this city, L. L. Edwards of Waycross, Dr. R. C. Willams of Au- gusta, R. E, Pharrow and A. Graves of Atlanta; on the other side were B. 5. Davis and Col. H. L. Johnson of Atlanta. The final outcome of the matter was not definitely known, but it seems as tho Davis has the best of the fight, judging from the telegram which was received in the clty Thurs- day morning, announcing that “Ben Davis won out with hands down”.

Aa KE SRA OE Gece ne 7 we New York July 14 1915—Transparent hats and furs, velvet head-gears and low necks—these are some of the things in the summer fashions that men ques- ‘ton, and even a few women come up to and at, as the thermometer soars sky- ward. The Jittle maiden with her “siskisha” hat goes serenly on; the girl with the white fox fur hugs them more closely, and the wearer of the yel- yet hat stedately rises a parasol such matters are beyond the compre- hension of mere man or the woman who was brought up to view close for eomfort. * ea \ | GAS a |!

REPRE 5 Even the woman who is conservative with, her dress and suit, casts wisdom to the winds above the shoulder line. What lies above bespeaks ‘the true wo- man who, in her heart of hearts, loves the fantasies of fashion. The demure Quaker and saucy “Chin-Chin” collar, ‘the flappy hat and stiff-brimmed sailor, even the plug hat of silk beaver fringe that Mrs. Vernon Castle made famous at the races, appeals to those of us who like something “different”. ‘The mode breathes romance, and romance is what fashion thrives on. Every hat and every collar awakens a memory or tells 9 new tale. It is in- teresting to note that the Quaker col- lar has its origin in the collar of the man’s costume. How scandalized the shades of the old time Quaker and Puritan must be to see their collar made in frivolous organdy, Swiss and cretonne! Jabots and frills come from another period when French court- jers wore fur-belows. In modern times, Sarah Bernheart gives her fam- ous youth-ziving frill to the high col- Jar; while the flaring half collans that are still shown on dresses and waists harp back to the portrait or Shelley. Nor is the mode without humor; “Chiu-Chin” collars, aimed at a giddy masquerade costume, have gone far -Off the mark and appear dn coats. Past modes are drawn on for hats, too. Jn an exclusiye shop, just off the Avenue, one of the girls of the younger set ordered a garden hat the other day of white chip, with a pyramid of pink res—the exact duplicate of the hat her sreat-grand-mother wore whe she ‘tripped across the lawns at the Capitol. Ail these garden hats of leghorn and Milan recall Colonint days. Iiven the “riskisha”, imported in spirit from Ja- pan, smacks of this style when trim- med with roses, the black varnished cord of which it is made contrasting with the light frocks, Broadly speaking, the hats of the season are divided into four clases; these portrait-fashion garden‘ bats, stiff-brimmed sailors that bespeaks the past or the present, according to the” materials and trimmings; — the sports hats, borrowed from the four coniers of the zlobe, and Jast, but not ' least, the cocky turbans, which show tee note in millinery. stiff-brimmed sallors are a chapter in themselves. Already, the straws’ are on the wane. Chiffon brims we have tired of, and so the at- jfention naturally turns to sailors of blue taffeta, black velvet and cretonne. “America”, the ‘whit leather-faced, Blue taffeta, is a worthy emblem of the country from which it takes its name. [Wutte beaded wings for trimmihg pring to mind the speed of Mercury; and the glory of the ancient Rome Hes in other bead trimmings for other taffeta hats. Black yelvets, shiny and plushy as cat's fur, are embroidered with fleecy white wool as wintry as possible to shock the sun of summer. Birds and animals in the wool crawl over the crowns, and the brims are invariably finished in old-fashioned quilt-stitch, varied in length to make a design. With white linen and eretonne cos- tumes, “Mistress Mary” eretonne hats make, a smart finish. These need no trimming, the bright collors being gay enough for amy summer landscape, whether mountains, country or shore. Sports hats come from old nooks and corners, The’ latest a dark blue taffeta, is decidedly Chinese in aspect. It has a sloping brim, with a soft edge an inch wide that flaps down and shades the face, dented on one side with heavy balls suspended from the ends of a cord tied around the crown. Scotland contributed the tam, and there is a soft hat made completely of narrow bias stripes of silk that is finding favor under a ‘Sfadein-Amer- ca” Jabel. ae!

Z At the present time hats come un- der these four classes, black and white prevailing, dark blue being the exception that proves the rule. Later, when suits grow darker, no doubt, hats will gain in brilliance. Already in Paris there is a tepd in this direction. From the “City of Modes” we receive such messages as: “Occasionally, a very brilliaut spot of color will he no- ticed In the hat, currant-colored hats or hats of the new blueede 1’ etoile being worn with the tailored suits of beige, white, dark navy Dive or brown" that “The Italian military ‘bersisli- ere’ plumes at the side’; and again, “The suits of tan are usually trimmed with wide shaw] collars of white wool or falle silk, and are topped with tify white hats or by broad-brimed sail. ors made of soft white crepe dé Chine”. THE SENIOR CLASS, °15 +eeemal Dept., Atlanta. University..,- In a recent issne of The Tribune I made the prophecy that the collese- gradm/ eponsus jamong colored peo- ple for the decade 1910-20, would be 2400, The prophecy was based upop reports of previous decades. Iam yery glad to find in the educational number of the Crisis, the July num- ber, further warrant for the number, 2,400 with, on my part, expectatation that the-number is too small. If there are to be 2.400 colored col- fleze graduates jin the decade thru which we are passing, there must be an average of 240 each year. The Crisis calls attention that the number for the year "15 was 250, and for the present year is 281. If one were to construct a graph,of the graduate numbers from year to year, with the ordinates as the yearly census, and the abseissae as the advancing years, the resulting Ine would be an as- cending curve of increasing ‘steepness. The Crisis disclaims presenting com- ‘plete figures, and states that when the full returns are in, the number will ex- ceed that stated above. Of this num. ber (281), 243 are graduates of col- ored schools, leaving 38 or about 14 percent as graduates from northern colleges and untyersities. To these figures may be added 247 graduates from courses in medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, law and theology from col- ored professional schools; with 42 who received elther professional de- grees or higher-academic degrees-from northern universities. The, grand to- tal is 570 names of the colleze and professional graduates. “Omissions will easily raise this to 650.” The Crisis also tries to flud the number of graduates from the high i Schools of the colored colleges ani the igh schools of the north, and finds | 2pprosimately 1,800 from the South, and estimates the total number for the country at 3,000. An interesting feature of tis number of the Crisis is the eighty photosraphs of the col- lege graduates, including apparently about all of the graduates from the northern< colleges “and the “honor” students among the colored colleges of the south, Among these ,eighty pic- tures are several whose faces are fa- millar in Atlanta. These are, J. W. E. Bowen, Jr. A. Ms, Harvard, who will continue historical studies at Harvard for a doctorate of philosophy ; I, T. Wright, M. D., Harvard, referred to in a recent number of The Past; L. C. Crogman, Temple University, den- tistry; Harry Butler Peters, A. B.At- lanta, “Highest Honor”; and among! the honored students of high schools, ' the daughter of Professor and Mrs. W., B. Matthews, so well Known in this, city, Perhaps Atlanta carries off the, largest number among these photo-} graphs of any city. . The additions to the graduate fra- ternity among colored people are the, 281 graduates who have received the’ degrees A. B. or B. S, “The higher’ and professional degrees have in the; main heen earned by those already in | this fraternit. This mumber (281) is the largest number of graduates the| colored people have ever had in any | one year., The number, should be larg- | er in ‘16. On an absolute basis the, number is satisfactory. How does it, look on a relative basis? If ten mil- lion of our citizens graduate 281 Bachelors of Arts or Science, one hun- dred million should ~ graduate 2810 Bachelors of Arts or of Scfence, ‘As| n fact, one northern university gave 200 degrees at the June commence ment. One college in Ohio gave 150 |. degrees ‘to Bachelors and S9 hicher; degrees, none of these professional. These figures are not given to ats | courage. S They should encourage. ; Rut they do emphasize the fact that “if the standards of a people are to| be set by its educated class, then, not | too many but too few colored students are in colleze. Of the 570 colored graduates SO re- ceived the bachelor’s degree, or 2 higher degree or a professional degree from some northern college or uni- versity. .It is probable that the larg- er part of these reside in the north. | Atlanta, however, furnished’ three of these and probably a fair fraction of the entire number Js from*the south. | I rejoice in the fact that—I will not | say a picked few—but a fortunate few are privileged to carry on their stua-| ies In northern universities, There is no southern university, in the moder | meaning of the word, open to them. And there is a nved that there shall | he a small body of advanced students | among the largér student body. Then , I welcome the comparison of the col- ored mind with the white mind, It is either.not so good as equal, or iz hetter than that of theewhite sty- dent, ‘and whichever way the fact points, the fact will be -helpful. I welcome the being In the freer at- mosphere of the north, where, on a; whole, 4 man iS a man. If the cat-| ored students of a northern colleze or university are not too chinnish ‘they , will find friendliness and social in- course with the student body, if not, CHRIST'S KINGDOM By Cider J. W.‘Manns There wilt. never be another world empire until Christ comes and sets up His eyerlasting and universal kipe- dom? jfhe crash of all empires 1s coming soon. In proof of this strous ascertlon T ask you to turn with me to the repens chapter of Daniel. Here is portréyed the course of empires from Babylon, down thrn the bkes, closing with \the downfall of all na- tions, and th@ setting of God’s world- wide and etermil kingdom. A magnificent image, of sizantic form, is seen. This image’s head was of fine gold, nis, breas and arms of silver, his belly and his thizhs of brass, his Jegs of iran, and his feet part of fron and part of clay, Thou rawes' till that a stone—smote the image up on the feet that were of iron and clay and break them in peaces—and th stone that smote the image became ¢ great mountain and filled the whol earth. Dan: 2, 31-35. . 1, The prophet Daniel interprets thus, as he addressed the Babyloniat monarch: “Thou art this head o! gold; and after thee shall arise an other kingdom of vas ea shall bea: rule over all the earth, And the fourtl kingdom shall be strong as iron. An¢ whereas thou sawest the feet and toe: part of potter's clay, and part of iron the kingdom shall be divided. They “shall mingle themselves with the secc ot men, but they shall not cleave one to another eyen as iron is not mixed with miry clay, And in the days ot these kings shall the God of heaver set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed”. Dan 2:37-44. -_ ' I call you to witness the fulfillment to the very letter. Beginning with Babylon, four world-kingdoms arose consecutively to rile the world, name- ly: Babylon} Medo-Persia, Greece and Rome. Babylon has gone, and all her glory. Medo-Persia has leng since passed away. Greece is almost for- gotten. “Rome, once “proud mistress ‘of the world”, is utterly and forever divided. Though strong as iron, Rome has remained divided for fourteen hundred years. These divisions are now known as the modern nations of Western Europe, the great nations of to-day. In five short verses the living God faretold what the human his. torlan takes volumes to tell. The word of God cannot be broken. Tron and clay will not mix. Mighty men have tried and planned and plot- ted to unite the divided kingdom of Europe Into one world-embrasing em- pire. But earth’s mightiest armies, headed by her greatest generals, were’ not sufficient to break the power of a few simple words of serfpture. Na- poleon attempted to accomplish what God said could never be done, but his dream of world-empire was shattered at Waterloo. The seripture cannot be | broken. | No living man, and no nation, how- | ever great, can create anozner world-. wide kingdom. God said it could not be done, and that settles ij. Sever short words ‘spoken by the living God will prove stronger than earth's great- | est war Jords and.their hosts. Force failed to unite the atstoea| kingdoms, so men tried another Scheme. .This, too, the prophet fore- told: “they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men, buf they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not. mixed with clay.”, Wit- ness how the reignius houses of Eu- rope have intermarried with the fond hope of thus consolidating their power in order to unite these divided king- doms. The history of Europe is one continuous testimony to the unerring uccuracy of there words. It is interesting to. note the blood relationship of the rulers of Europe engaged in the present war. King George and Kaiser William are first cousins. King George and Czar Ni- cholas are first cousins by marriage. The failure of these intermarriages to preserve peace between the royal houses is aptly expressed in the words of the prophecy, “They shalt not cleave together”. It is the reaponse of history to the voice of prophecy. And now the Jast act in God’s drama of the ages is coming, and coming soon, “In the days of these kings shall the God of ‘heaven set up a kingdom which shall never be destroy- ed”. The great stone is to smite the modern nations and “break them in peaces and consume all these kins: doms.” Read Dan 2:32, 35, 44, 46. For over fourteen centuries we have been ving in the days of these king- doms; and the coming of Christ in per- son to overthrow all, and establish His everlasting kingdom, is the climax of this stupendous prophecy. ‘The time is almost here. It will not come thru the gateway of politics. The world will neyer be converted. It will come by the utter destruction of existing pation. Then will be the Nee ee ea ae.

AMONG THE MASONS The following beautiful expressions of our esteemed Past Grand Master, Charles F. Buck, is making the rounds of the Masonic Press: The newly raised Master Mason stands before us, the embodiment of spiritual perfection, from which the vices and superficialities of common life have been extracted and cleansed away. He grasps the hand, not of a man but of mankind—he becomes one with and part of the suffering mass as the pledges of fellowship are unfolded to him, and his footsteps, his prayers, and the sympathies of his heart are consecrated to the service of his brother. As a rule, the new Master Mason grasps the vigor and beauty of this consumption. He realizes as he looks hastily, perhaps vaguely, back over the various journeys he has made from his first surprise to the final climax, that a new and broader view of his own being has developed into consciousness. He is perhaps dazzled in the in the revelation that has come to him—in the beauties of the system which contains hidden in its simple and innocent formalities the whole problem of life, aye and of death and immortality! He feels in a breath, his weakness and his strength, his dependence and his sovereignty; his mortality and his divine hope. He bows in a sense of humility before the grandure of the new light by which his spirit sees, and dedicates himself in silent worship to the realization of its deep suggestions. He may truly wonder why, with so much of goodness and beauty in the human heart which Masonry has brought home to his soul—like a new inspiration—the world should not be better and happier than he is. He is suddenly impressed with the sublime truth that the best part of our lives is that which we live for and in others. Masonry, successor of the mysteries, still follows the ancient manner of teaching. Her ceremonies are like the ancient mystic shows—not the reading of an essay, but the opening of a problem, requiring research, and constituting philosophy, the arch-exponder. Her symbols are the instructions she gives. The lectures are endeavors, often partial and one-sided, to interpret these symbols. He who would become an accomplished Mason must not be content merely to hear, or even to understand, the lectures: he must, aided by them, and they having, as it were, marked out the way for him, study, interpret, and develop these symbols for himself.—Albert Pike. Among all the institutions known to man at the present day Freemasonry and the power behind it are the only ones with clear intelligence to define man's duty to him-self and to his fellow-men, and to point out the line of self protection, liberation, and higher evolution by an exact ethical formula, free from all dogmatism, superstition, fear, or any ulterior motive whatever. Freemasonry thus stands as the epitome of human wisdom, and of man's highest achievement to the present time—Queensland Freemason. Fraternity is more than a mere word; it means the building of hearts and souls, as brothers and kinsfolk are found.—Globe. It is a fallacy to believe that the Mason with high titles or numerals or the various grand officers are of necessity the best and ablest. Some are mere accidents, often a governing body has a small head. The ablest and best Masons are often humble tollers in the quarries.—Los Angeles Trie-mason. It is the prerogative of a Master "to determine all questions of order, and what business shall be brought before the lodge." That is why a motion to "lay on the table," which is generally recognized in parliamentary bodies, is out of order in a Masonic Lodge. THE SPIRIT OF LOVE You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments that stand out are the moments when you have done things in a spirit of love. As memory scans the past, above and beyond all the transitory pleasures of life there leap forward these supreme hours when you have been enabled to do unnoticed kindnesses to those round about you, things too trifling to speak about, but which you feel have entered into your eternal life. —Henry Drummond.

Scott, President, Tuskegee Institute, Alabama "I suppose that most people," said a barber, "would consider plying the shears and razor as comparatively easy work; they would not expect to find barbers men of muscle. "The fact is that standing all day and even in the easier parts of his work using his arms all day in various positions the barber keeps his muscles in constant exercise, while in such operations as shampooing and massage he is called upon for the exertion of downright strength. "He may not have the muscle of a man always in strict training, but I think you would find that, as a rule, the barber is no weakling."—New York Sun.

Coming to London subsequently, he made the concession to my respectability of donning the coat and hat and thus we walked down Piccadilly.

The ex- cellent demeanor of the crowd of vis- itors who came here with the con- vention was indeed marked and the men in the convention sessions and be- fore the meeting place conducted them< selves in a most, becoming manner. Xn fact, there seemed to have - been during the the days the convention was in session a decrease even in ,the us- ual amount of disorder which we are accustomed to witness on our streets. Perhaps the citizenry here in general ‘was on its good behaviour or perhaps it absorbed some of the good habits from the strangers. Be this as it may, Jet it suffice to say that the Knights” convention was indeed ;a credit to the splendid order they represened-and: we would that all such bodies would ‘con- auet their conventions as orderly and as respectfully. | The Negro citizens in general feel highly elated over the excellent meeting. and demonstration which the Knights had. Their ses- sion, to all outward appearances, was conducted on a high basis, their fol- lowers carried themselves $n the Streets in a most commendable manner and the result of their having met here cannot but be beneficial to the Ne groes of this city. . Considerable uneasiness will no ‘doubt be caused by the passage yester- day in the state senate of a bili which prohibits white teachers from teaching In colored schools. ‘The suc- cessful jpassage of this bill in the House and the touch of the govern- or’s hand to the bill making it a law in‘this state that white teachers shcuid not teach in colored schools will cause a situation which will “be very detrl- mental to the education of the-Negro. ‘There are many secondary schools and colleges among our people whose fac- ulties are composed of both colored and white teachers and in case this bit of east legislation is carried thru Successfully a condition in Negro ,ed- ucation in the state will result which will be very trying to deal with. In some of our leading educational in- situtions mixed faculties are found “and it will be impossible to supply Immediately the places made yacant by the white teachers forced out by this Dill, In many of these schools these white teachers have been serving for many years and their value to -the educational development of the Ne- gro is inestimable. Having studied our conditions and toiled for years to rem- edy them in the school room as best they could, their services have been an invaluable asset in Negro education. To be bereft of their assistance at this time would be a blow which can- not be measured in a material way. ‘They have given to the Negro the best guidance which they were capable of, they have endeavored to teach him that Kind. of useful education which will make him a well rounded, well balanced and valuable citizen and they have" tried to instill into him those principles which will bring out his best qualities. Thus teaching the Ne ‘Broes, they have benefited the whole south as well as the race by develop- ing those qualities which make good citizens. The Negro has now reached that stage of development where he most needs safe and sane guidance along educational as well as moral lines and to shut the door of hope at this critical time in his progress would be to undo the work of the many years of sacrifice so as- siduously put forth by the noble mis- sionaries who are still working among us. It is hoped that our represen- tatives in the legislature will be governed entirely by reason and not by feeling in dealing with this im. portant matter. _ |ANGus?s, (GA.)

Business knows no color or race. ‘The white merchant ‘and manufacturer goes after the dol- Jars of all the people without regard to race or colér, and we must do like- rwise.

Lindsay A choice place always awaits the faithful worker who works unselfish ly for the benefit of the people In the community in which he Mres. To such a worker or workers, the people look for guidance and help along many lines. In veritication of this fact, it will only be necessary to call attention briefly td the words of com. mendation and praise which have been lavished so freely by our ’ visiting friends, the Pythian brethren, for the Fractal uplift work which is being dove so systematically by the Negro Bust ness League headed by A. B. Sing field and the splendid work of better housing conditions and better livin conditions among Negroes in this com. munity, which is being done by the Urban League, headed by Editor Sol. C. Johnson, of the Savannah Tribune. Prof. John Hope, president of the great Morehouse College, Atlanta, Ga., wa! Kind enough to say on last Monday night in the presence of more than fitteen hundred people, that. the Na. tional Secretary, Eugene Kinekle Jones had salé to him and to others that the Savannah branch of the National Urban League, under the management of Sol. C. Johnson was in the best and mdst prosperous condition of any in the United States, out side of New York. Savannahlans, as a whole, are grateful indeed to Mr. E. K. Jones and to Prof. Jno Hope for their kind words of the meritorious work which is be ing so unselfishly done by Editor Sol €. Johnson, and those of his followers who believe in the constructive leader- ship. Not by Pulling Others-Down But by carefully walking over them - SIOW e,.

The Negro business ele- ment in this community has long since come to the conclusion to pass up the mun or set of men, who attempts to rise in the world of business, polltics, fraternal or otherwise, by putting his feet upon the ueck of his contemporary who is struggling with might and main and who is putting forth the best honorable endeavors {1 him to worthily -Ieave his footpriuts on the sands of time. « ~ Pulling -Tegether Is only another word mécbing suc cess, wilich the Negro Business Lea- gue in this weekly letter has been trying to stress with all the power at its command for nearly two full years. In its effort in this regard; the Negro Business League, in its weelly letter, has striven at all times, as much as possible, t6 encourage optimism and goud feelings which essentials the American Negro-can ill afford to be without, In the mean time, it has doue what it could in the way of try- ing to discouruge mud-throwiug, muck- raking and slime-slinging among mem- bers of the race, whether they be en- gaged directly in business or not, as we do not feel that such methods adopted to bring recognition and no- torlety, ure worth what it costs the race to get them. We are Proud of our Record ‘Why should we not be? Do we hot jive in the fairest and best city in Georgia? Here in this city, where every man fs given an opportunity to make for limself and family an honest Hvying and serve his God under his own vine and fig tree, unmolested and unafraid. Here the Negro is making progress, here he is learning the lessons of co-operation, here he fy learning to solve the intricate business problems which comfront him from time to time, here he is learning to trust his own race, here he is learniig to do business with his own peopié! Then why should we not feel’ provit' when we, as a business organization, feel that we, in a limited sense, had a little something to do with bring- ing about these glorious results which mean so much to our racial betterment, as well as our business progress. Principles like these are those for which the Negro Business League stands, which meets again at its head- quarters, Wage Earners Bank building, Alice aud West Broad streets, Friday evening July 16th 1915.

The meeting will be held in Convention Hall, Garrison and St. Botolph streets, Boston's newest and most commodious hall, erected especially for the accommodation of such organizations as the League is hard at work perfecting ar-Friday, August 18th, 19th and 20th, 1915. The Boston Local Negro Business League is hard at work profecting arrangements for the reception and entertainment of the delegates who are planning to be present. Aside from the regular business sessions of the league, the social side of the convention will not be neglected. A guarantee fund has already been secured for the purpose of financing every feature of the reception and entertainment of the delegates. Affiliated Organizations The officers of the affiliated organizations of The National Negro Business League including the National Negr Press Association, The National Negro Bankers' Association, The National Negro Funeral Directors' Association, The National Negro Bar Association, The National Association of Negro Insurance Men and the National Negro Refail Merchants' Association are each individually planning their several programs so as to add interest to the coming meeting and to make them constructively worth while to their several individual members. Arrangements have been made with the Southern Railway whereby a National Negro Business League Special train will leave Atlanta, Sunday night, August 15. between 11 and 12 o'clock, midnight. The special summer tourist rate to Boston and the east which apply in connection with this meeting are much more favorable and satisfactory than any rates which may be secured at four (4) cents per mile for the round trip. Delegates and intending visitors are earnestly urged to get in touch at once with their railroad passenger agents who will acquaint them with the summer tourist rates from their respective places of residence. The arrangement at present is that delegates living in the Southeastern territory shall assemble at Atlanta, Georgia, from which point the National Negro Business League Special train will start. Delegates from Texas, Louisiana, Tennessee, Alabama, Florida, North Carolina and South Carolina are especially urged to arrange to join this special train which will be provided with separate engine, baggage car, dining car and all Pullman cars. Delegates living in Florida are especially urged to communicate at once with Mr. Charles H. Anderson, treasurer of the National Negro Business League, 132 Broad street, Jacksonville, Florida. Alabama delegates are asked to communicate at once with Mr. E. T. Attwell, president of the Alabama State Negro Business League, Tuskegee, Institute, Alabama. West Tennessee delegates with Mr. T. H. Hayes, member of the Executive Committee, 247 Poplar street Memphis, Tennessee. East and Central Tennessee delegates with Hon. J. C. Napier, chairman of the Executive committee, Napier Court, Nashville, Tennessee. Mississippi delegates with Mr. Chas. Banks, first vice-president of the National organization and president of the Mississippi State Negro Business League, Mound Bayou, Mississippi. Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina delegates address Mr. J. C. Beam, assistant general passenger agent, Southern Railroad, Atlanta, Ga. Arkansas delegates with Honorable J. E. Bush, 2nd vice-president, National Negro Business League, Masoule temple building, Little Rock, Arkansas, Texas delegates with Mr. J. B. Bell member of the Executive Committee, 2121 German street, Houston Texas. Louisiana delegates with Dr. Robert E. Jones, member of the Executive Committee, 631 Baronne street, New Orleans, Louisiana. and Hon. Selpio A. Jones, member of the Executive Committee, 402 Markhoum street, Little Rock Ark. Dr. George C. Hall, a member of the Executive Committee of the National organization, 3208 South Park avenue, Chicago. Illinois, and William D. Neighbors, a member of the national organization, 3241 Vernon avenue are formulating plans for a Negro Business League special train to start from Chicago for the convenience of the delegates living in the vicinity of St. Louis, Chicago and gill of the western territory, including points in Kentucky and Illinois. Arrangements will be made for delegates to stop off at Buffalo and Niagara Falls for a sight seeing tour. Delegates intending to be pres ent from that section of the country are_requested to write Dr. Hall or Mr. Neighbors. It is especially desired that the delegates should notify the gentlemen in the states above named as early as possible as to their intentions so that reservations may be made for them in the Pullman cars which are being provided for the accommodation of the several state delegations. The City of Inspiration Every person should visit Boston at least in his life. It is the City of Inspiration. From within her gates have gone out, with the flow of the years, currents of thought that have vitally affected the life of the nation. There are yet standing some of the buildings like Faneuil Hall, Old South Meeting house, the old State House, King Chapel, Christ Church, etc., in which the sparks of national independence were fanned; and on her commons and streets are to be seen many memorials of those who labored that the colored people of America might be free. Not only this, but all around her, within almost a stone's throw, are numbers of other small cities which are rich with historical associations. The League delegates should not fail to visit these places nor overlook the many splendid business establishments of Boston, the Hub of New England and the great north. Business enterprises have been brought to a very high degree of efficiency in Boston, and delegates can learn much through the opportunities which will be offered them to visit some of the larger and more important business houses. The colored citizens of Boston, always hospitable, are sparing no pains to make the coming and stay of the delegates a pleasant one. On Friday evening, August 20th, a banquet in honor of the delegates, their wives and families, etc., will be tendered by the officers and members of the Boston Negro Business League and by the citizens of Boston and vicinity. This banquet, as at present projected, will prove to be one of the most satisfactory affair ever given in honor of the National Negro Business League. Delegates are requested to have their mall directed to the headquarters of the Boston Negro Business League, 121 Campbell street, Rosbury District, Boston, Mass. Further information as to detailed plans for the coming meeting, etc. may be secured from BOOKER T. WASHINGTON, President, Tuskegee Institute, Alabama J. C. NAPIER, Chairman Executive Committee, Napier Court, Nashville, Tennessee EMMETT J. SCOTT TO CHECK THE MIGRATION OF NEGROES TO CITIES 39 Cities Have More than 2,000 and 12 More Than 40,000. Tuskegee, Ala., July 4.—The third week of the sixth annual session of the Tuskegee Institute summer school for colored teachers with an enrollment of 422 from fourteen states, ended with an address on "Methods to Check Migration of Negroes to Cities" by Prof. George Edmund Haynes of Nashville Prof Haynes declared among other things that the most vital problem that concerns the American Negro is fundamentally social and economic that the serious question is where the mass of Negroes of the South should live; that the migration of more than 27 per cent of the Negro population to the cities has resulted in a large and increasing urban population; that 33 cities had more than 2,000 Negroes each; that 12 cities had more than 20,000; that five of these were Northern cities and seven Southern; that in every city where the Negro population had reached a considerable proportion it is largely congested into congested district neighborhoods, thus making more acute the problems growing out of their change from rural to urban life, and that the efforts of his organization are directed to help in counteracting this migration to cities and seek to improve the serious social conditions growing up among Negroes in the cities and the rural districts. The two fundamental principles that animate the National League on Urban Conditions, the speaker declared, are to seek the co-operation of Negroes and white friends and the co-ordination of existing agencies and organizations to check the great migration to cities, and to help those who migrate to town to learn how to live and survive there and become like other citizens. The National League seeks to check this flow of the Negro population to the cities and towns by pointing out to them the sharp competition between skilled and unskilled labor, by showing the alarming death rate among Negroes living in congested districts, by calling attention to the bad housing and foul sanitary conditions of the masses of Negroes in the cities and by showing them the advantages of owning homes in the country and of living on the soil. In carrying out this program of so- clal service, several social workers are being trained for the special work in Negro colleges and universities and much good has been accomplished in Savannah, Atlanta, St. Louis, Richmond, Vn. Philadelphia and New York. The Biggest Cracker. The "kasabi" torta (we get our word "tart" from torta) of Hispanic-America is the biggest regularly made cracker on earth. It is made from the kasabi root and lightly fired in cakes about the size of a small parasol. A cracker for a hat—such indeed is sometimes the use made by the Latin peons of the kasabi torta when needing a temporary sunshade (sombrero). The torta is always made bowl shaped so it can be balanced on the head without any particular effort—and provided no wind interferes. Rain, however, quickly soaks and collapses this remarkable and useful edible headgear—London Express. Getting Rough With Juanita. Small Mary, who had been taught to read by the modern "sounding out" system, was amusing herself by singing the school songster from cover to cover. Prescally, as she reached "Juanita," one heard coming in her birdlike little voice from the depths of the big armchair: "In the dark, I slammed her." A startled parent found that the line really read: "In 'thy dark eyes' splendor."—New York Post. "I understand that she does a good deal of vocal work." "Yes. Her singing is labored."—Judge. Turning Lead Into Gold. Professor F. Soddy, F. R. S., declares that it is only a question of application to change lead into gold. He says that while now we can only work with electricity at 100,000 volts, it is only a matter of perfecting the method to be able to work at ten times that voltage, when the baser metals can be changed into the more precious. In other words, electricity, when brought to its highest efficiency and application, is the real philosopher's stone for which the alchemists of the middle ages searched so long. -London Spectator: Early Football Players Football was for many years the national game of Florence. The season was from January to March, and the ladies and gentlemen of Florence and the populace as well were wont to assemble on the Plazza Santa Gloce to witness the game, which was called "calcio," from the word meaning "to kick." The last game was played in 1739. More Push: Less Push. The primal cause of America breakdown has been attributed by a famous physician to those absurd feelings of hurry and care, to that breathlessness and tension, that anxiety of feature and solicitude of results, revealing the lack of inner harmony and ease, without which good work cannot be accomplished. The man who gives us the impression of the old Scriptural motto, "In quietness and confidence shall be your strength," is none too common in these days.—Christian Harald. Progress. "My wife knew nothing of house keeping to begin with, but she's learning fast." "That's encouraging." "Oh, she's a bright little woman, if I do say it! It has taken only two cooks to teach her to keep away from the kitchen, and I suppose that's at least half the battle." - Puck Compulsory Change of Nama. A notable instance of compulsory change of name occurred in Scotland in the seventeenth century, when the clan Macgregor was ordered to abandon and forget its ancient patronymic. The English government thought by this means to stamp out the spirit of Rob Roy's redoubtable kinsmen, and so sternly was the decree enforced that the use of the old name was treated as a capital offense. For the time the clansmen submitted and took other names; but so far from forgetting the old designation, later generations proudly reverted to it, and today there are more Macgregors in the world—to the world's gain—than ever before—London Standard. As It Looked to Him. "Who is that remarkable looking man?" "Himmel! That's the magician who yesterday turned beer into water. And they let a man like that go around loose!"—Meggendorfer Blaetter. Logical Result. "She has such a dogged expression" "No wonder, with that pug nose."—Baltimore American. Caught Both Way. "I saw Tommy stealing the jam." "And I saw him jamming the steal." —Baltimore American. AFFECTION The strength of affection is a proof, not of the worthiness of the object, but of the largeness of the soul that loves. Love descends, not ascends. The might of a river depends not on the quality of the soil through which it passes, but on the inexhaustibleness and depth of the spring from which it proceeds.—F. W. Robertson. Well Acquainted. Maurice and Mildred were visiting their grandmother when they became so mischievous that she made the old time threat, "If you don't behave the bad man will get you." The children had never heard the threat before and did not understand the "bad man" part of it. The following conversation between them was overheard some time later: "Mildred, who is the bad man?" "I don't know. You will have to ask grandma. She is well acquainted with him."-Indianapolis News. FOR ONE For Firstclass Shoe Repairing. T.A.

Then the door closed, and he found himself in a padded cell Presently some visitors entered and peered pityingly through an aperture in the door. “Plense open the door,” he pleaded. “I've brought a load of coal.” “Ah,” said one of the party, “that’s his delusion. Some think they are the king or the mikado or Na- poteon Bonaparte. This poor fellow thinks he’s n coal porter. Come along.” ‘Then they went on and left him. [ LIFE IS A SERVICE.

UAE ‘Sxyle 309 i ZF 7 Lesson IV.—Third Quarter, For ‘July 25, 1915. . THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Memory Verses, 23, 24—Golden Text, lea. ivi, 7—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. In some respects the ark of Noah the tabernacle of Moses and the tem- ple of Solomon were the three most re markable buildings in the history of the world, for God Himself was the sole designer of each, and each was in- tensely typical of things to come con- cerning the Saviour, salvation and the Kingdom. The great truths of our re- Gemption ,have been made more plain to me by tabernacle studies than in any other way, and I miost earnestly commend to all readers a little book, costing only 25 cents, entitled “The Tabernacle” or “The Gospel According to Moses,” by George Rodgers. (Am. 8. S. Union, 1816 Chestnut, Philadel- phia.) The spiritual lessons from the temple are very similar, but with more of the kingdom outlook, Solomon began to build the temple 480 years after the Exodus (1 Kings vi, lb. If you add up the figures in Acts xill, covering this period, you will make it 573. but if you subtract the 93 years of the oppressions of all Israel in the days of the Judges, the accounts will agree perfectly. Out of fellowship. with God means lost time, whether with a nation or an individual (Nom. vi, 12; Job xxxiv, 29). Solomon's tem- ple was finished in the eleventh year of his reign. and it was plundered just thirty-four years after, in the fifth year of Rehoboum (I Kings vi, 37, 39; xiv, 25, 26). This was just the time between the birth of the Messiah, the true temple, and His death. Zerubba- bel built the second temple after the return from Babylon. At the time of Christ’s ministry Herod had been re- ballding that temple forty-six years (Jon {, 20). The last eight chapters of Ezeklel tell of a temple yet to be builded when Israel shall be restored. Both tabernacle and temple were dwell- ing places for God in the midst of Is- rael. God was in Christ. Every true belfever is naw His temple (I Cor. vi, 19, 20). The church, His body, now be- ing builded, 18 the temple in which we are for the present most interested (Eph. if, 19-22). All the materials for tabernacle and temple were willing of- ferings (Ex. xxv, 2; xxxv. 20; I Chron. xxix, 3,9, 17. Christ gave Himself willingly for us (Heb. x, 5-9; John-vi, 38). We must be willing offerings, keeping nothing back, . : Remember the only foundation aI Chron. Mi, 1) spoken of fn a previoug lesson, the great atonement suggested by Moriah and Ornan’s threshing floor /and the silver sockets of the tabernacle boards and seé’I Cor. ill, 11. If we are truly, in Christ we are living stones In the temple now being builded (I Pet. H, 5), but as in the temple of our les- son every stone was made ready in the quarry or somewhere for its partic ular place in the building (1 Kings vi 7, 80, while the belfever 1s 2 stone by the precious blood of Christ, we are be- ing made fit for our places in the build- ing by the daily training here. When the temple was finisbed and the ark set in its place in the holy of holies the glory of the Lord filled the house, s0 that the priests could not stand to min- ister (I Kings vill, 4-11). It is our priv- Hlege thus to be Spirit filled, so that self may find no place. Our special lesson verses are a little part of Solo- mon’s great prayer at the dedication of the temple, in which he glorified God, saying. “Lord God of Israel, there is ho God like Thee, * * * who keep- est covenant and mercy with Thy serv- ants thut walk before Thee with all their heart” (xxii, He also praised God for fulfilling His word to David and asked Him to continue to do so (verses 2t, 26. ‘Then he asked the Lord that His eyes might be open night and day towurd the house he had build- @d for His name (verses 27-30). He presented seven separate petitions concerning different matters, saying each time “Lear Thou in Heaven" or “Hear Thou in Heaven Thy dwelling Dlace” (verses 30, 32, 34, 56. 39, 43, 45, 49). He pleaded that He would do this for Israel, as His inheritance, whom He had separated |from among°all the people of the earth, and that He would maintain thelr cause at all times, as the matter might require, or, as in the marxin, the thing of a day in his day (verses 51, 53.59). This expression ts found also In the story of the manna (Cs, xvi, 4, margin) and elsewhere, reminding us that His care is sure day by day as Te bas taught us to pray. His desire was “that all the people of the earth may know that the Lord ts God and that there is none else” (verse 60). So it was also wiih Joshua and M. WH.

Ross, Savannah. The Music The local K of P. Band, the three other bands and the drum corps kept things unusually lively from early Monday morning until Friday morning when the last of the visiting companies got out of town. At the camp and on the streets martial airs could be heard at almost all hours of the night and until the wee hours of the morning, the principal offenders being the band from Augusta. Dressed in summer uniform on the parade and at the park and twenty men strong, this aggregation was easily the "class" among the bands and wherever they appeared they received a big hand from the spectators. Several concerts were given by them, Patt's Place, West Broad and Gaston, and the Wage Earners bank being among the business places they complimented. At the latter place their rendition of the "Memphis Blues" "Tipperary" and the "Down Home Rag" and the overture "Elves" attracted wide attention. Both the lodges and the courts held interesting sessions, the former being attended by 325 representatives and the latter by 350. Since last June there have been added 16 lodges and 23 courts, the lodges receiving an increased of 1,000 members and the courts 1,305. The reports of the secretaries showed the number of lodges to be 460 with an approximate membership of 16,000 and the number of courts 350 with about 12,000 members. The treasurer's report of the lodges shows a balance on hand of $40,529.84 while the courts now have on hand a balance of $33,022.99. The sessions of the lodges were presided over by Grand Chancellor Hutto of Bainbridge and Mrs. R. L. Barnes was the presiding officer at the meeting of the courts. Among the important measures passed by the lodge was the abolition of the Pythian Temple commission, that to consolidate the offices of the grand keeper of records and seal and the secretary-treasurer of the endowment bureau was lost. There were no changes in the official roster of officers of the lodge and but few among the grand court officers. Both the old presiding officers were re-elected without opposition, as was true of several of the other officers. The only fight for officers was for the position of grand vice chancellor and grand attorney. Col. A. B. Singfield of this city made a bid for, the former position and lost to the encumebent by a vote of 73 against 185. F. B. Pettle sought the grand attorneyship losing out to P. A. Allen by a vote of 60 to 152. Dr. Stevens of Darien who was a candidate for grand medical register withdrew from the race. Mrs. Barnes received much praise from the members of the courts and the manner in which she is idolized by them in general showed with what love and respect they regard her. Two cities made a bid for the next convention, Albany and Atlanta, the former being elected by a large majority. The Music The Sessions Grand Lodge P. G. C., Dr. G. N. Stoney.....Augusta G. C., G. R.

It means that part of the family income which is used for the necessities and luxuries of life. It is quite apart from and apart from the more serious, substantial part of the income, which is the saved part. In America, the entire income is "liquid," and the man who attempts to make part of it solid is called a "tightwad." A "tightwad" is really a man who creates a principal—a capital, in other words—and he is the living example of what every private business must be and of how the country's resources should be handled. Argonaut. Poetry and Patriotism Zakris Topellus, "the most popular poet Finland has ever known," was a lover of his native land above all else. Once, says Paul Wainman in "A-Summer Tour In Finland," he wrote as follows to a little Finnish boy who was at the time residing in England for his schooling: "You are in a great and rich country, but never forget that you are only an exile. If Queen Victoria herself should write and offer you a post in her kingdom remember that you must answer: I cannot, because I have a cottage waiting for me when I am grown up. It has a roof higher than the loftiest hall in Windsor castle. That roof is the blue sky of my own land." Falmouth. Falmouth is probably the oldest port in England. It was used by the Phoenicians at least 2,500 years ago. Dr. Johnson's Resolutions. Dr. Johnson compiled this list of good resolutions on his fifty-first birthday in 1760: "Resolved, Deo juvente, to combat notions of obligations; to apply to study; to reclaim imaginations; to consult the resolves on Tetty's coffin; to rise early; to study religion; to go to church; to drink less strong liquors; to keep a journal; to oppose laziness by doing what is to be done tomorrow; rise as early as I can; send for books of history of war; put books in order; scheme of life." A Polished Villain "He is very popular with his wife of late." "And him such a flirt. How does he do it?" "She called him up the other day and said, 'Hello, darling,' and he recognized her voice and replied: 'You have evidently made a mistake. I am not your darling. I have the dearest, sweetest, most beautiful wife in the world, and she is the only woman I permit to call me darling.'"—Houston Post. Matching the Furniture. The head stenographer was a blond again. "She had to do it," explained the office boy. "Dark hair looks flat against this new mahogany office furniture."—Philadelphia Ledger. >21 Circumstantial Evidence. >What makes you think his wife is not a good cook? >Well, instead of carrying a lunch when he goes to work he visits a restaurant and carries a lunch when he goes home." -Houston Post. Not Garrulous. Client—What! You expect me to pay you 253 francs for tiking possession of such a small inheritance! You should have warned me it would cost so much. Lawyer—My motto, sir, is "Deeds, not words."—Paris Pelo Mele. Penitenca. "I suppose you're sorry now?" asked the prison visitor, according to the Philadelphia Ledger. The young man who had stolen $17,000 and spent it in sixteen weeks sighed through the bars. "Oh, yes!" he answered. "I tried to cut too much of a splurge. The money ought to have lasted me a week longer." Dishes of Tea. The Tavistock, the bachelors' hotel in Covent Garden, is probably the only place in London where a man must drink his "dish" of tea after the fashion of a century and more ago. These dishes are cups without handles. They are larger than those used by our great-great-grandmothers, which would hardly suit the modern masculine demand. The Tavistock dishes are of uniform pattern—white china with a broad blue band—Pall Mall Gazette. Qualities of Courage "There are different kinds of courage." "I know that is a theory. But is it true?" "Undoubtedly. A girl, for instance, will have the courage to wear an outlandish bathing suit and yet not have the courage to go into the water!"—Seattle Post-Intelligencer; Lincoln's Companion When Abraham Lincoln in 1808 sought solitude that he might write his inaugural address, he asked his friend Herndon for a copy of the constitution, for Webster's reply to Hayne, for Jackson's proclamation against nullification and for Henry Gay's speech on the compromise in 1850. Just a Man. "Are you afraid of burglars?" "I used to be, but I got a look at one not long ago, and I'm not afraid any more. I found out that he was only a man, just like my husband."—Exchange After the Movies "Whit's wrang noo? Did ye no' like The Battle o' Waterloo?" "Waterloo! Dye no' ken my grand father fought in the battle, and I never seen him in a' the picture!" -Glasgow News. Badly Named. There is a man in a midland town whose name is Barst. It is a misfortune that would not have attracted much attention if he had not called his two children Anna May and Ernest Will—London Mall. Her Housekeeping. Growells—Smith's wife must be poor housekeeper. Mrs. Growells—Why do you think so? Growells—He declares he's perfectly comfortable at home every day in the year.—Chicago News. RELIABILITY. Try to be reliable. Reliability is far more important than genius, so far as the comfort of the people with whom you live is concerned. PEKIN THEATRE 6 REELS DAILY OPEN 7:00 P. M. W. J.
