The DECISION OF SUB-COMMITTEE OF ODD FELLOWS ON GEORGIA AFFAIRS THREE DAYS TAKEN UP WITH GEORGIA AFFAIRS Households Separated Industrial Farm Must Be Discontinued —Deputies and Supervisors Go— Cannot Send Representative to Hold Grand Lodge. More than three days' time was consumed in the consideration of causes coming up from the jurisdiction of District Grand Lodge No. 18 (Georgii). Georgia Cases Many complaints were filed from various parts of the jurisdiction, principally against certain acts of alleged malfeasance and misfeasance on the part of the district grand secretary and the district executive committee. Brother A, Graves, of Atlanta Lodge No. 5465, presented arguments against the defendant and former Deputy Grand Master Henry Lincoln Johnson appeared as attorney for them. Dr. B. W. S. Daniels, of Savannah, and Brother L. L. Edwards, of Three Links Lodge No. 5674, Waycross, Ga.,ably supported Bro. Graves in his content against what they termed "tyrannical mismanagement" by the officials of District Grand Lodge No. 18. Former Grand Treasurer B. J. Davis was the constant advisor of Attorney Johnson in his contentions in favor of the defendants. Bro. Graves set forth in detail the organization and operation of the so-called "Industrial Commission project". The opinion and judgment of the Sub-Committee of Management in the matter are as follows: matter. " (In re the petition of various lodges and members of the Order in Georgia. Onlinen by the Board.) "At the monthly Board meeting of the Sub-Committee of Management a rule was entered upon the Executive Committee of District Grand Lodge No. 1S and all parties concerned to show cause why it and they should not be directed and ordered by the Sub-Committee of Management to desist and refrain from further paying out or using the funds of the district grand lodge or the bureau of endowment thereof in support of an Industrial Commission or project as it might deem meet, and the occasion require. To this rule an answer was filed and the matter is now before this board for determination. for determination. "In a district grand lodge 'is vested the power of government and superintendence of the subordinate lodges within its jurisdiction in accordance with the Grand Laws, etc.' (Section 5, District Grand Lodge Laws and Constitution). "A district grand lodge is a creature of the District Grand Lodge Laws and Constitution, 'having no inherent powers or authority.' (Lattimore against Armstrong, Vol 1, page 2S0, Sub-Committee of Management Decision). "When one desires to ascertain the rights and powers of a district grand lodge he must look to its grant of authority from the Sub-Committee of Management. "District lodges were created, originally solely for the purpose of superintending subordinate lodges. It had no sick to care for and no dead to bury. In a way it was the hand through which the Sub-Committee of Management sought to regulate and control lodges of the Order and there was no occasion for a fund or the raising of revenue, save to defray the expenses to superintending the lodges and exceeding the Order. spreading the "By an amendment to the General Law, district lodges were authorized under certain conditions and regulations to inaugurate and operate an endowment department, when its plans for so doing were duly adopted by two-thirds vote of the lodges and approved by the Sub-Committee of Management. Before the passage of this General Law, no one would have suggested that there was power in a district grand lodge to operate an endowment. "The above quoted amendment is the only addition to the powers of a district grand lodge originally granted. "It would be folly to contend that the power to operate an endowment system carries with it the power to run a farm, embark in general business or an industrial enterprise. It matters not that it is laudable to seek in all the affairs of life to aid mankind.

She was one of the original members of the Household of Ruth in the state and served the order with much distinction. She is still one of its most prominent members.

Part au Prince, July 2S—A mob of infuriated Haltens today removed Vitbrum Gulliume, President of Haiti, from the French legation, where he took refuge yesterday, and shot him to death in front of the building Massacred in Prison The shooting occurred immediately after the burial of the 160 political prisoners who were massacred in prison yesterday morning at the time of the revolutionary outbreak against President Gulillume. The mob was composed in a very large part of relatives of the victims. M. Girard, the French minister to Haliti, protested vigorously, but was powerless. Is Shot to Death Guilliume was dragged from the protection of the legation. Once in the street the crowd surged around him with imprecations and he was promptly shot to death. · Even then the anger of the people was not appeased. The body of the president was mutilated and dragged through the streets at the end of a rope. Fear More Violence Arrival of the American cruiser Washington with Rear Admiral Caperton is expected at any moment, M. Girard was counting on the coming of a cruiser to afford protection to the legation.

This overlapping of waist and skirt offers a welcome relief from more pronounced joinings and is in itself a trimming for the dress. ss [SN i ii 3 AL AA TACTaARt toa . p pe ft Ee ice Ep © Mecawe v ve we wit. . OB - Afternoon Dress with a Smart Sat- in Hat and Japanese Parasol There are skirts with slightly raised waistlines and plain inch-and-a-balf headings; others with wide girdles be low the heading, and, again, the skirt is shirred or corded, with the heading extending above. The peplums, too, are treated in different ways. Many are made with the new normal waistlines, but there are still a few with the raised waistlines, Usually, with the peplum idea, the waist has a vest, leaving an open space in the peplum in front. At the waistline, there are double lines of shirring, 2 crushed girdle, a belt of the material, or one of the new fancy belts of patent leather and white kid. The Popularity of Voile It has been said with truth, that this is a voile season. As in silk, taffeta is the favored weave, so in wash material voil predominates. The loose, cross-mesh lends itself readily to the quaint styles of the 1915 season. Whole windows of the large stores are given up to frocks of voile; the Are nue throngs with people who wear it, and the lesser stores on the side streets contribute their share to its popularity in exclusive modes for n chosen few of New York's select society. One model of unusual merit is a symphony Jn pink and white, standing on the spacious third floor of an Ave- nue store, The pink Is a delicate sal- mon shade, printed in bars and em- broidered in big coin dots in every fourth square. This material is used for the walst cut surplice fashion, and for the skirt that comes up over the waist with a heading, while the collar and cuffs are white voile, edged with a Pleating of pink and white. ‘ Pockets a Feature in Misses’ Skirts <If misses’ skirts are properly pock- eted, they are smart this season. In- deed, pockets in their newly-found popularity have outgrown skirts and extend into straps on the belts and even Info suspenders on the blouse. They are real pockets, conveniently placed squarely over the hip, that a girl can put her hands into and swag- ger down the street like her big brother pockets that are big enough to Hold the knickknacks of the handbag, and Jast, but not least important, pretty enough in shape to trim the skirt. ‘They appear on the rough-and-ready ekirt of linen, washable corduroy and cotton gubardine. There are some charming models in soft bine ‘and rose linens; with suspender pockets; sports skirts" of corduroy have pockets ‘that mutton ovér the belt—bis, roomy af- fairs—at the sides that will be the pride and joy of some girl's life. Pipings for Linens One of the smartest ways of finish. ing the linen skirts fs with pipings. ‘A store that makes a specialty of jnnior dresses is featuring a rose liner piped in white, ‘The skirt is made with the large patch pockets at the side that esta it suspenders, on the waist. ‘The sKirt, suspenders, pockets, and cuffs are of the rose linen, while the ‘Waist is white Swiss, The pocket ts outlined with a piping: of white that accentuates its shape and adds to the style. Midsummer Hats of Satin Satin buts are an innovation of the midseason. Large shapes are favored in these, and trimmings are unique and original, A broad-brimmed white sat in has a flat bow inserted in slits in the front of the crown; a Diack satin has white velvet birds pasted flat on the crown, snd still another white satin pas 2 crown of wool made in four sec- tions, each section embroidered in a diferent color. ‘The last suggests the cap of the jockey set down on the top of a satin hat, with coloring even more brillfant.

Tapestried Handbags Gate-top handbags are still popular. Rare bits of tapestry are now used for the bottom, with gorgeous tassels to finish them off. The rich tones of the material oddly contrast with the light dresses. There is one bag in charming Oriental effect, with peacock coloring of gold and purple combined with dark red ‘This is finished with 4 gold tassel’ and heavy gold cord at the'top. Other bigs have bracelets at the ‘top in place of the cord; and, for those who do not care for the deep tones of the tapestry, there are beaded effects and silver mesh bags in the same gae-top style.

T. Washington uone created a deeper interest In the study of Negro history than the lecture delivered by Professér Monroe N. Work of the de- partment of research and compiler of the Negro Year Book, Tuskegee instt- tute. . The address was Melivered Wednes- day in the assembly room of the aca- demic building and was heard by a large and appreciative audience, The subject discussed was “Africa in An- cient and Medieval History.” Pointing out that races were defined according to certain physical character- ities and that these physical character istics, it was claimed, determined the supertorty or inferiority of races, and that the current zeographies per-se, and that the Negro, through these descrip- tions, has come largely to belleve in his ivherent inferiorty and that to at- tain superiorty he must become like the white man in color and achievements, in fact, along all lines, Mr, Work took the position that this view is detrimen- tal to the progress of the Negro and that the Negro must make his own spec ial contribution to world progress. That is, instead of simply pattern- in g after what the white man has dene, why cannot the Negro through mustc, art, history, science, ete., make his own special contributions to world progress? This question, the speaker declared, | has arisen because in the field of sei- ence and in the field of history a num- per of facts have been brought ferward which Justify this possibility. Tead- ing scientists in the field of anthropol- , oxy are telling us, said Mr. Work, that! while there are differences of races, there are no differences which, per se, indicate that one race is inferior or superior to another. The differences are in kind, not in value. On the other hand, the speaker declared, what- 2ver superolority one race has attained over the other has been largely due ‘o environment, A German writer in a discussion, some time ago, of the origin of African ivilizations said, “What bold investi- ratory, great pioneers, still find to tell Is of in civilizations nearer home, yroves more and more clearly that we ire ignorant, of hoary Africa, Some- shat of its yfresent, perhaps we know, jut of its past little, Open an illus-! rated georgraphy and compare the ‘Type of the African Negro.” the blu- sh-back fellow of the protaberant lips, he flattened nose, the stupid expres- ion and the short curly hair, with the all bronze figures from dark Africa vith which we hase of Jate become ‘amillar, thelr almost fine-cut features, ‘lightly arched nose, longhair, and ou have an example of the problems recaing for solution.

Justly ean it ne demanded,” ‘closes ‘that Teutonic cholar, “what sort of civilization is his? Whence does it come?” Mr, Work pointed out that one of he most important contributions to ‘ivilization, the smeltering iron, was probably made by thé Negro races In upport of his-views, be said that ap- arently no iron was smelted in En- ope before 900 B, C.; that about 3000 B.

As a race we have a past which is full of interest, It is worthy of our ‘serious study. From itw we can draw inspiration; for it appears that not all black men everywhere throughout the ages have been hewrs.of wood and drawrs of water, On the contrary, through long periods of time there were black nations who ‘have left the ree- ords of their achievements and of which we are just now beginning to learn a Uttle.

Rudyard Kipling was only twenty Sears und six’ monts old when made a Mason in 1886, in Hope and Perse verance Lodge at Lahore, Pruyah, In- dia. Robert Burns was only twenty- three years of age when the degrees were conferred on him in St. David's Lodge Tarbolton, Scotland. Don’t wear a Masonic emblem unless Yur beart approves of it, If unworthily worn, you admit your shame, Either HMve up to Masonry or tear the pin off. .

A few short years and some other steward will take your place. co Keep just accounts with God and man, + FY Don't fall to take the Masonic Her- ald and read it. Then get some other brother to read It. Don’t fail to visit, your lodge and keep in touch with all your brethren, Make every brother feel that he has gained in being there.

A Sacred Hour “A little nonsense now and then is relished hy the best of men”. Yes— and I am pointing my finger directly at you. and you—but there fs a time and a place for that nonsense. Levity and facetionsness have their sphere but, brothers, that sphere is not in the lodge room. The impressive, im- portant solemnity of the occasion in the exemplification of the degrees should not be levened with aught, but the seriousness with which it 1s fraught, I do not desire to lead, to teach nor to dictate, but I humbly of- fer to you a suggestion. A brother's birth into his Master Masonsbip, so sacred. so holy, should teem with beauty and love, that that glorious hour shall ring in his future years, on to the very end of his earthly be- ing. Philosophy of Masonic Work _ According to an old Jewish tradition, little angels are born every .morning by the brook which rolls over the flowers of Paradise, These spirits do not work all day. There whole Ife is like a song, When evening comes they cease their warblings and re- turn, without regret, into nothingness. Thus it is‘ with many institutions to which the present age gives birth; thus it has been with countless, name less societies which have existed in the past. Not so, however, with Frepma sonry. It stands to-day looking back on centuries of work whose monuments are national; it sees, on every hand, fields broadening and purpose deep- {entns: it beholds a future vast and ever progressive. It is pre-eminently the educator of our age; its works are the lessons of life, As defined by the Rev, Dr. Norval, “A Mason's Lodge is @ school of piety; the principal em- blems are the teathers;” or, in the impressive language of Albert Pike, “There are “great truths at the foun- dation of Freemasonry—truths which it is its mission to teach, and which, as constituting.the very essense of that sublime system which gives to the ven- erable institution its peculiar identity as m science of morality, it behooves every disciple to ponder and inwardly digest.” , The preparation of the candidate {s in itself a lesson, and the ceremontes of initiation are beautiful and imposing exemplifications of profound — truths of the Order. The Mason is taught to perfect his nature according to the Divine plan, to subjugate his passions to the dominion of the soul; to enjoy ‘his faculties in the noble mission of life, to cultivate generous affections, holy thoughts, and heavenly aspira- tions; to labor for truth, wisdom and virtue. He is shown that riches, glory, and fame and all the world’s crowns and kingdoms are but vanity, and will vanish as a wreath of smoke; but that the soul will live through all time, with its treasures of holiness, ‘wisdom; hope, virture, love, pure ‘thoughts aud devout affections, Ma- sonry teaches the exalted principles of our existence, upon which rest the well-beIng and progress of soclety, the purity and sacredness of the family relations, and the duties which are due to the Creator of all. Masonry teaches the equality of man. It ac- knowledge> no earthly aristocrat or monarch. It knows no worldly dis- tinction of rank or position, Kings, princes, and subjects, commanders of, armies, and private soldiers, states men and peasants, all “meet upon the leyel.”"—Northern Freemason. F. A. B. CHURCH The services at the First African Baptist Church were largely attended on last Sunday, The pastor, Rev, T. Jefferson Goodall extended a special welcome to a number of visitors at each service, several pereons connected themselves with the church by letter and watch-care relatiouship. Dr. H. Wordsworth Reed preached an inter- esting sermon at the 11 o'clock service from the subject, “Faith”, Text Heb. gospel minister, fs a specialist on . . e We hear much these days about colored people not patronizing colored, . business enterprises— ~ The truth of the matter is that many Colored business men have neither kept pace with the broadening and discriminat- ing tastes of thé Colored customer nor with the specialized efforts of their white competitors. . “Ts a far cry” from sentiment to business. 5 This is the age of specialized selling methods and the Col- ored merchant must “fall in” or “fall out.” The difference between the business which is “mighty fine” and “just eo-so” is the difference in merchandising methods. ‘We can help you to put your business into the “mighty fine” class.

Chinese children are endowed with strange Christian names. Ther girls, for Instance, are not calleg Mabel, Jen ny or Matilda, but Cloudy Moon, Celes. tial Happiness, Spring Peach or Casket of Perfumes. Their boys get less at tractive names, being made for work and wisdom rather than pleasure and dancing. Thus we find a little two- year-old Practical Industry, three-year. old Ancestral Knowledge, four-year-old Complete Virtue, five-yearold Discreet Valor. To their slaves they give still another set of names. Not For Me, Joy to Serve, Your Happiness and Humble Devotion may be taken as typical examples. A Skip and Jump Age. Carelessness cosis many a ‘life, ft sacrifices many a fortune and ruins many a promising prospect. A crusade for-eMeleney may be carried too far, but {t fs sadly needed. We live in a “skip and jump” age. Somebody tells some one else of “a good thing.” and some one else proceeds to buy it be- cause “somebody” did. We ape all kinds of queer fashions—in dress, in modes of living and in éverything else —doing it thoughtlessly, carelessly and indifferently. Then we wonder why sotae succeed and so many fail Per haps the “seme” are not so carelesa Perhaps the “some” do a little more thinking than the others—Jasper in Leslte’s. 4 Could Do For Herself. ~- BShe'was a very delightfai but a very aged indy—over ninety—and her friends ‘and relatives and even chance ac- quaintances, drawn by ber exquisite personality, all did her homage and, 23 the saying is, “waited on ber hand and toot” She accepted it all very graciously, but with some inward rebellion, for to a very old and close mouthed friend she once said. with a quaint pucker of Ups and beows: é “I am reminded sometimes of the old Unes:= “Twa were blowin’ at her pose, And threa were bucklin at ber shoon.* ne —Yoath’s Companion. ?

In the cavalry a trooper or private 1s called a “sowar,” a sergeant is a “dur. fadar” and a captain a “risaldar.” Other ranks are similar to those in the infantry—London Answers, ‘The Oyster Shell. = Every one who bas handled an eys- ter shell must have noticed the succes- sive layers overlapping each other. ‘These are technically named shots, and each one marks a year’s growth, so that by counting them the age of the oyster crn be determined.

Fossil oysters have been seen of which each shell was nine Inches thick, whence they maybe guessed to be more than 900 years old. - EE ee eae eee alent iain foied . tS t MO Gatlin Tt RRS Shite c oS Bae The best. i : SP ie P Ae ee, £ ; i ay I?

BENJAMIN & JOHNES, SU Pye 60 Warren Street Newark, N. J. * Lua Pe ‘i : By sole309 a ee SUNDAY SCHOOL. Lesson Vi—Third Quarter, For ‘ Aug. 8, 1915. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson, 1 Kings xii:6-16. Memory Verse, 16—Golden Text, Prov. xvi, 18—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns, In,this record of the division of the Kingdom and its cause we still see God over all controlling and in all working, for He has foreseen everything from the beginniug and ‘provided’ for every, so called emergency and always tells the final outcome. ‘This division of the kingdom has never been heated till this day, but {t will be In His the, ae cording, to Ezelx, xxxvil, 21, 22, “I will make-them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all, and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all” ‘The im- mediate cause of this division is found in chapter xf, 9, 10, “Lhe Lord was angry with Solomon because his heart was turned from the Lord God of Isra- el, which bad appeared unto him twice and had commanded him concerning this thing that he should not go after other gods." ‘Therefore was the king- dom rent in twain. Departure from God and disobedience to Him is back of all trouble, as a rule, and the devil 4s back of that, but the time will come when on this earth there shall be no more trouble, and from this earth and this atmosphere the devil shall have gone forever (Rev. xx, 10; xxi, 1-4; xxii, 3-5). Whether it be providing a king for Israel, as we have seen in the case of Saul, and David, and Solomon, or dividing the’ kingdom, as we are about to see, the Lord generally works by ordinary human instrumentality. In our lesson story today we ‘see Hadad Rezon and Jeroboam and Re- hoboam and old men and young men all doing seemingly as they saw fit, Dut behind the scenes is an unseen hand controlling, “Ibe Lord stirred up an adversary unto Solomon, Hailad, the Edomite.” “God stirred him up another adversary, Rezon, the son of Elladah.” “hus saith the Lord, the God of Israel, Behold I will rend the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon and will give ten tribes to thee.” “The eauee was from the Lord, That He ‘might perform His saying, which the ‘Lord spake by Ahijah, the Shilonite, unto Jeroboam, the son of Nebat.” “Thus saith the Lord, Yershall not go up nor fight against your brethren, the children of Israel: return-every man to his house, for thts thing is from Me.” (1 Kings xi, 14, 23, 31; xf, 15, 24). Even the devil cannot touch a child of God without God's ‘permission, as we see in the case of Job and of Simon Peter. {The believer who aims to walk with God in humility and obedience may live in continual peace and quietness, assured that all things are God's best for him and that no real evil can ever befall bim. But if there is disobedt- ence or willfulness God will in love and wisdorg chasten for our good. Sol- omon being dead, Reboboam, his son, reigned in his stead, all Israel baving made him king at Shechem (sii, 1; I Chron. x, 1). When Jeroboam heard in Egypt that Solomon was dead he returned and, with a deputation, walt- ed upon Rehoboam with a request that he would Nghten the burdens which hfs father’s magniticent reign had caused to be placed upon them. He asked for three days to consider theic request, and meantime he consulted first with the old men and then with hig young men. The former advised moderation and that he speak kindly to the people. but the latter advised {nereased severity. So when the third day came und Jeroboam and the peo- ple came again for his reply he spake to them as the young men had advised, for the Lord was by their evil counsel working out [lis purpose (verse 15), as He also wrouzht by the counsel of Hushai, which was evil toward Absa- lom, to overthrow him. “The counsel of the Lord standeth forever, the thoughts of his heart to all genera- tions,” but all other counsel or device He bringeth to nought (Ps. xxxiti, 10, 1). ‘“Whatsoever the Lord pleased that did He in heaven and in earth, in the seas and. all deep places” (Ps. exxxy, 6). x However people may associate them- selves against Him or take counsel to- gether against His people, all shall be broken to pleces and come to nought.

Bipegs The effort of members of the legislature to drive white teachers out of all Negro schools, and to prevent (?) Negroes teaching white folks caused a getting together of the Negroes and conservative white folks for the common good of all. The efforts were prompt and effective, and it is believed the measure has been put to sleep for keeps. It is generally understood that that the bill was aimed at the catholic Negro schools where white Catholic teachers are in charge. It seems that there is an element of white folks in this statetat keeps up a constant fire upon the Catholic church people, but why should we, for policy sake, be kicked about too? Twould be a blessing—a God-send, if there was not another session of the Georgia legislature for the next twenty-five years. We believe old Georgia is making some progress, however slow, in the right direction. Compulsory Education There is pending in the Georgia legislature a bill which, if enacted into law, would force all parents to send their children to school at least three months of each year. There are many defects and loop-holes in the bill, but, all in all, it would mark the beginning. Ignorance-illiteracy is the greatest affliction under which our state staggers, and it is a pity that, with the comparative records of states which have compulsory education laws and those which have not, men who go to Atlanta to enact laws cannot see the awful plight of the state, and, instead of nursing the smouldering embers of race hatred, or religious hatred, set themselves about the task of redeeming the state superintendent. Lawton B. Evans of this city, in an address before the Rotarians a few days ago, took strong grounds in favor of compulsory education. He delved into details and by statistics showed that compulsory education wipes out illiteracy and enhances the worth to the state of each laborer, or, to be exact, I quote from the address: "An illiterate laborer is worth $1.00 per day; a skilled laborer doing the same work in a better way is worth twice the money. The earning capacity of the illiterate in America is estimated at $150 a year; of the partially educated $30 a year; of the grammar school $600 a year; of the high school graduates $1,000 a year; of the college graduates $1,500 a year. Per capita wealth increases in the exact proportion as education becomes widespread. The per capita wealth of Massachusetts among the native born whites, is about $2,400. The per capita wealth of Georgia is around $300. Massachusetts has less than one percent of illiterates, and Georgia has 8 per cent. Massachusetts has compulsory education of all children between 7 and 14 years for eight months in the year, a total of sixty-four months, Georgia requires nothing." Logically, Mr. Evans and those of the school he represents must admit that the above would apply also to the Negro people; therefore the policy of cutting the curriculum of the Negro schools down to the lower grades, which has been done in this city and county, forces the lowering of the earning capacity of the Negro youth; and this, in the sum total, must effect the percentage record of the state. We believe that one of the most valuable assets of a state is an educated citizenry, and this should be given without regard to race, and it is to be hoped that the movement may carry, and that in a few years the disgraceful illiteracy rate of 8 may be reduced to 0. As a whole, Mr. Evans's address is a good one and will help the cause. Those of us who know Superintendent Evans, and who know what he has had to carry in building one of the finest school systems in the country; how hard and difficult his task has been in efforts to help the poor Negro teachers and schools, sympathizes with him in many of his expressions made before the "other folks" which would otherwise appear as "knocks" aimed at us. Knowing the man we take him at his real worth, I quote below the concluding paragraph in his address: "Why hesitate, gentlemen, on this question. Why let the old argument of the Negro question, our poverty, the hard times and other subterfuges stand between us and that prosperity that other nations and states enjoy? Let us start over and start right, and give every child, white and black, of every race, color and creed, without prejudice or stint, his inallenable right to an opportunity in this land of liberty to make of himself all that his Creator intended, all that the state and community need, and all that our christian consciences dictate that he should have. Will Not. Pass in which he gives it as his opinion that the bill aimed at white teachers' in Negro schools will not pass. This confirms my expressed opinion that Georgia is making progress. A further evidence of this is found in the refusal by the same body to exempt school endowments from taxation. The proposition came, in fact, from the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, and had it succeeded would have been an open flagrant violation of the State Constitution. It was an attempt to raid the state treasury and "the complete separation of church and state" preachment would have vanished. Tribune Man Here The Savannah Tribune is striving to supply the need for a first class weekly newspaper for our people in this city. As an illustration of the demand for The Tribune the people were clamoring for it last week. A minister, pastor of one of the city churches, while visiting at the home of one of his members remarked that he would pay $5 for a copy, if need be, rather than not have last week's issue. Let the friends who wish to read the paper regularly send $1.25 directly and they will get it. But I started out to tell how I put one over the Destrek Skule people last Wednesday. I managed to get an invitation to their picnic. I did not get there until the afternoon, but, thanks to Mesdames Susie Trotty, Carrie Ryans, Dr. Carr and Mr. T. D. Ryans we received our share of good things, including the barbecue. I circulated among the members and their guests. Heard them say many good things for The Savannah Tribune and the Augusta correspondent in all of which we jobbed and yet my identity remained as mysterious as ever. I was a sort of "slenth" in the midst of as lovely set of women and many men as ever made up such a gathering. "And-Sambo waxed fat and kicked? Ask Charlie Stewart, he knows. Mr. Dave Williams was buried from Trinity Church last Sunday afternoon. He was a Knight, a member of the rank. He leaves a wife, three children, mother and brother with a large circle of friends to mourn his death: Rev. C. L. Bonner's "baby" rally at Trinity last Sunday netted $350. Good! Mr. Cornellus King, an old and respected citizen, died last week and was buried from Trinity Church of which he had been a member for a long period of years. Mr. Chas Turner, a former resident of this city, but who resided in Minneapolis, Minn. for the past 20 or more years, was buried from Harmony Church in this city last Tuesday afternoon, the remains having been brought here from his late home. Only a few months ago Mr. Turned journeyed to this city with the remains of his wife for interment. Mr. Turner was a Mason and was given a Masonic burial. Nearly every day records cutting or stabbing scraps among the Negroes. Hot weather and over-ripe watermelons seem to be getting in their work. The Vagrants The vagabons seem to have things their own way in these "dizzlings." They neither toil nor spin, yet they "dress up", shoot craps even on the public streets and fill the air with vulgar epithets, even in the very face of good women. Many of these loafers are youngsters still in their teens who would not accept employment at any wage. In many instances these idlers are provided food by their poor mothers, in many cases washer women who love (?) their sons into crime, and who deny themselves the ordinary comforts in order to feed and cloth these foul mouths, loafing rascals who not only are a disgrace to their families and to the race, but breed crime and disgrace and menace to the community. This class of young Negroes do not attend school or church, and for the good of the community and themselves as well, should be taken in hand by the proper authorities and put to work as the law provides. The man or woman who encourages his or her boy in idleness, becomes party to his crimes and must accept the stigma. The idea of the man or woman tolling hard daily feeding and clothing a sixteen or seventeen year old chap whose chief occupation is vagrancy and gambling. Compulsory education would not reach this class of youth, but the chain gang may. The Negroes are entitled, and so is the city, to relief from such deadly incubus. Such vagrants are dangerous; as a rule they steal even through burglary, and the Negro race is given full credit for their acts. Let our people quit shielding these criminals, but instead aid the proper officers of the law in their efforts to rid the community of them. Mr. James Pritchard, who has been confined to his home ill from a slight paralytic stroke, is able to be out Baptist Convention Last week, as noted, in these columns, the State Baptist Sunday School Convention and B. Y. P. U., met at Thankful Church herb. As is the case with all large gatherings of our people now a-days, whether church or fraternal, much is politics. Rev. P. James Bryant, pastor of the Wheat Street Church of Atlanta, had been president for 16 years and had built a powerful organization. He was defeated for re-election. Among the nominating speeches was one by a lad from Atlanta in favor of Rev. Bryant. In it he openly referred to the preachers as "whiskey drinkers" who wanted to get in position to steal the people's money. Instantly there was bedlam, and the preachers and their sympathizers pressed forward to get hold of the boy speaker, and there were all sorts of threats and menaces. Later it was by vote determined that the young speaker might remain in the meeting, but should have no further voice in the proceedings. To this he assented and the incident closed. Rev. Pinckney was re-elected president of the convention which meets in Savannah next July. Professor and Mrs. Washington of Voorhees academy, Denmark, S. C., are visiting Mr. and Mrs. Thos. D. Ryan, Gwinnett-street. Mrs. Washington is a cousin of Mrs. Ryan. She is a graduate of Atlanta University and has taught several years at the academy. Mrs. A. B. Berrien is spending the summer at Asheville, N. C. Mr. Thomas Williams, whose secreious illness was reported last week, died at his residence on Gwinnett St. last Wednesday. The funeral took place from Tabernacle church, of which he was a member. Friday. He leaves a wife and seven children to mourn his death. They have the sympathy of the community in their bereavement. NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE WEE LY LETTER By J. C. Lindsay The resourceful mind of the founder of the National Negro Business League saw in it the future business possibilities of the race in this country and began the great work of organizing the Negro business men into small groups in every progressive community with the hope that these men and women thus organized might keep up an eternal warfare on indulence, thriftlessness, or any other such thing, as would cause men and women of the race to be careless and indifferent to the progress and enterprise brought into existence by brain and money furnished by members of the race. If Dr. Washington had done nothing else for the race other than organize the National Negro Business League, which inspired and encouraged the greater portion of the states in the union to fall in line and they in turn formed local community organizations, which, when properly followed up, and intelligently cared for have been, and are still now, so much to the community in which they are serving. I say, if he had done nothing else but this alone, this one act of his is indeed sufficient, in its self to crown him the constructive leader of the race. A Proof of the Statement Here in Savannah where the Negroes are forcing their way into the business arena as never before during all of the one hundred and eighty years or more they have lived here, much of their activity in this regard, is due, and can be traced to the inspiration gathered from the one man, yea, the wizard of Tuskegee, that optimistic man who made the race, as well as himself, famous in the good year of our Lord 1892, in the City of Atlanta when he turned to his Negro hearers and uttered these encouraging words: "Black men of the Southland, let down your buckets where they are". Admonition Heeded The black man of Savannah, which indeed is a historic portion of the Southland, has long since decided to let down his bucket right here and the, the surface of the deep blue business sea may be tears and brine, and because of these unfavorable conditions, the business coward would give up in despair, fainish and die for the want of business initiative, while the optimistic, yet determine business Negro in Savannah has decided to let down his bucket right here and draw fresh and sweet waters which come rushing down from the hills of the mighty Andes, which waters flow as an under current and can only be reached by the man, who possesses the long line of patience, securely fastened to the bucket of hope and drawn by the steady hand of determination. Negro Enterprises must Succeed When we think of what our enterprises are to the race in the way of furnishing employment to the deserving young men and women who are coming in great numbers each and every year from our various schools and colleges, and when we think of what Negro banks are to the community in the way of saving their homes and lifting mortgages, plus the prestige they give the race in the commercial world, and the tone and dignity they add to the race in a general way, then, we repeat that Negro enterprises in Savannah must succeed. What is true with regard to the enterprises mentioned above is true also of the insurance companies, drug stores, real estate dealers, or what not, yea, our businesses in this community must succeed. Negro Business League in Boston The local branch will hold only one more meeting which will be Wednesday evening, August 4th, before the National Negro Business League will hold its fifteenth, annual session in the City of Boston, where the organization was founded by Dr. Booker T. Washington, who has been unanimously elected as its president without a desenting vote for all of these years. Remarkable Record During the fourteen sessions which closed with the Muskogee meeting of 1914, it is said that there has never been a point of order raised by any one member on that of any other matter. Thus you can see, that the Negro Business League stands for what its name emplies. Come early next Wednesday evening and bid our delegate a hearty good luck. SOCIAL HAPPENING Mr. and Mrs. F. D.
