The many friends of Mr. Henry Garrett will regret to learn of his death which occurred Monday evening at the home of his sister, Mrs. Grant, on Duke street, after an illness of only two weeks. His remains will be taken to Sheldon, S. C., for Interment Tuesday. He was a prominent member of the Rising Light Lodge No. 2407, Odd Fellows, also an active member of the F. A. B. Church.

Y., also a sister, Mrs. Grant of this city, and a host of friends who mourn his death. A correction in last week's write up of the Bust-Bruen wedding. We had Miss Arnett Grayson as bride maid, when it should have been Miss Sarah Gauntt. Cards are out announcing the wedding of Miss Lueren Grayson and Mr. William Frazier, Wednesday, Oct., 6th. Both of the contracting parties are very popular here. Mrs. Lucy E. Mitchell and her charming daughter, Miss Jestine, have returned to the city after spending more than two years in Fall River, Mass. and Philadelphia where she has a daughter residing. Mr. John Green, Jr., the son of Ix-Chief Green, is in the city for a few days visiting his old home and shaking hands with his old friends. Mr. Green is located in New York City, in the tailoring business. He speaks very highly of the success of the Negro Business League in New York City. Rev. C. W. Walker, pastor of the F. A. B. Church, leaves this week for Sumpter, S. C., where he takes up his work at the Morris College. We regret very much to see Mr. Walker leave this city where he has made so many friends. Sumpter is to be congratulated in getting such an able pastor as Dr. Walker. A great victory for Mr. Chas E. Danner and Mr. W. F. Marscher in Tuesday's election. Mr. Danner and Mr. Marscher, it will be remembered by some of the Tribune readers, did not go into the primary on September 17th, so on Tuesday of this week, which was the general election, where all citizens voted, the Negro vote went on the side of the administration, of which Mr. Chas, E. Danner is mayor and Mr. W. F. Marscher is councilman. The election passed off very quietly with the following results: Mr. C. E. Danner 144 against Mr. Lagare 75; Mr. W. F. Marscher 144 against Mr. Dodd 77. In the primary both Mr. Lagare for mayor and Mr. Dodd, for consilium each received 95 votes. The administration ticket won like a charm. Much had been said about the Negro selling his vote, but Tuesday's election demonstrated the fact that the Negro will vote on general principle as much as any other people if given a chance. Too much credit cannot be given' Hon J. I. Washington, Dr. N. J. Kennedy, Rev. D. W. Bythewood, Capt B. H. Houston, Mr M. B. Flemming, Major George. A. Reed and Mr. P. S.

SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, SATURDAY OCTOBER 2ND, 1915 2800 NEGRO CHILDREN ENROLLED IN THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS OF THE CITY EVERY ROOM IN THE FOUR COLORED SCHOOLS PACKED TO ITS UTMOST CAPACITY Southern Motion Picture Company Greatly Encouraged by Venture. 4,000 Present First two Nights. Birmingham, Ala., Sept. 20.—Moving plays showing the Negro race as intelligent, refined characters have come to stay. This was demonstrated here last week when the photo-play, "When True Love Wins," was presented to packed houses at the Champion Theater. The audience was appreciative and showed most emphatically that the Negro by reason of his advancement will in the future demand high class pictures in which the intellectual and more progressive side of the race participate and will not tolerate the plays of this kind which are so common now-a-day, in which the race is ridiculed. "When True Love Wins" was written by Mr. Isaac Fisher, the celebrated Tuskegee Institute essayist, and he has so skilfully constructed his story that only the highest human characteristics and impulses are portrayed. He has woven his plot around the love affair of Thelma Drayton. Possessing those maidenly charms which compel the admiration of the young people in her circle. Thelma Drayton finds herself surrounded with many suitors, three of whom are very desirable young men. As the action of the play progresses, Thelma frequently finds herself unable to make a definite choice in her own mind between these three young men, as each one in turn reveals some hidden strength of character which appeals to her. In the climax there is a strong scene in which the hero has to choose between the opportunity to win Thelma and to do this, duty to his country. To the surprise of Thelma he states positively that to him, love of country preceds love of sweetheart, and he prepares to take up arms to defend his country. The very thought of parting with him paints her very keenly and she finally decides that after all she loves the hero. Of course there is a happy ending and a good moral. Not only has the author supplied thrill, action and excitement, but the producers were careful to select the best local talent in Birmingham, and many of the scenes are staged in some of the homes and business enterprises of the best colored people of the city. One cannot witness this play without experiencing a feeling of deeper respect for his race and you find yourself wondering why this type of play has not been put on before. When interviewed at his office in the Lyric Theatre building, Mr. D. B. Griswold, manager of the Southern Motion Picture Company said: "I was very proud of the reception accorded our play, but it only verifies our belief in the race pride of the colored people. I have long since been convinced that the better class of the colored people would, soon get tired of always seeing their race shown on the screen either in a scrap or in a scrap game and it was for this reason that we asked Mr. Flsher to write this play in which the better side of the race could be presented. You can say for me that we are going to put this play on in some nine hundred or more houses catering to colored people and if the colored people decide that they prefer these high class plays to the common stuff now shown, we shall be pleased to present them—and they will be good ones too. So far the experiment has proven very satisfactory to us." ANOTHER NEGRO LAWYER The four local Negro lawyers were increased by one during the week. The new brallrster is Mr. Geo. W. Hall who passed the bar in Richmond, Ind. Lawyer Hall is well known here, where he resided some time before going to Indiana. Lawyer Hall has opened an office over the Savannah Pharmacy. STEVENS—SINGLETON Mrs. Rosa E. Stevens and Mr. Albert Singleton were quietly married on last Wednesday evening at the home of the bride's mother, Mrs. Elliza Johnson, 34 Dooley Avenue. Rev. Daniel Wright officiated. The couple is at home at 606 Bolton street west. Hundreds Not Admitted Some of Lower Grades Have As Many As Three Children in One Seat Rush For Admission Cards Thursday. Bright and early yerterday morning the streets of the city were enlivened by the merry, clatter of thousands of children as they passed to and fro on their way to school to greet their teachers for the first time this fall in the the joyful grind which will continue with but a few silight, intermissions during holidays until the good old days of summer time roll round again. The attendance yesterday at the four colored public schools toteled 2.806 and every grade was packed to its utmost capacity especially the lower grades where, in several rooms, seats which should give accommodation to two children were occupied by three. The utter lack of adequate accommodation for colored children was never more plainly shown than Thursday morning during the hours of issuance of admissions cards at the schools when hundreds of parents beigeed the entrances to the various schools only to be told that there was no more room. Scores of parents who had cherl-shed all the summer the hope of entering their children in the schools for the first time were confronted with the sad disappointment of finding no available seats for the little ones and as they stood in groups around the school buildings they presented a pittable sight. The enrollment in the schools this year is approximately the same as the opening day last year, the 2,806 pupils being distributed among the four schools as follows: West Broad Street School.....836 East Broad Street School.....760 Cuyler Street School.....688 Maple Street school.....512 PROF. R. L. COOPER. Prof. R. L. Cooper a member of the faculty of State Industrial College, Savannah, Ga., has been spending quite a little of his vacation in Atlanta visiting old friends who were delighted to see him back in the city, where he lived for more than twenty years. Mr. Cooper is one of the most proficient tailors of the state. He graduated from several of the best tailoring schools in New York City and easily takes his rank among the best. As professor, he has brought his department at the State Industrial College up to the very highest standard and the young men, who graduate from his department, are making their marks in life. They are regarded among the very best tailors. Prof. Cooper takes a great pride and interest in his work and with the boys who come under his instruction. They love him and he loves them. He is regarded as one of the ablest and most useful members, of the faculty of that institution and is respected and esteemed by both trustees and faculty. No one is better known and more highly regarded in the city of Atlanta than Professor Cooper. He has a host of friends here as well as throughout the state, and he is doing a great work for the young men of his race. He has set them a noble example for right living and efficient service.—Atlanta Independent.

Interesting Happenings of the Nation's Capital By R. W. Thompson Washington, D. C., Sept. 28.—The grand encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic is in full blast. The town is decorated from Howard, University to the Potomac with the national colors, evergreen and the portraits of Lincoln, Grant, Sherman, Sheridan and the gallant heroes who fought on many battle fields that this country might be indeed and in truth "the land of the free and the home of the brave". The streets are crowded with people from everywhere and the remnant of the vallant band that struggled at Fort Wagner, Manassas, Vicksburg and in the Wilderness is the welcome guest and the cynosure of all eyes Cheers greet the boys in blue at every turn. Gally uniformed bands are playing martial music and the week is a gala occasion for all classes, conditions and color of munkind. The colored veteran is here and is receiving his share of attention at the hands of the citizens of Washington. The colored reception committee headed by F. D./Lee, Judge Robert Terrell and others is doing its full duty. The formal reception at Convention Hall is the big feature of the week. There will be welcome addresses, music by the Amphion Glee Club and an orchestra will aid the throng to "trip the light fantastic" at its will. Sightseeing cars will take the veterans to all the points of historic interest and the homes of our 100,000 population will be open to the erstwhile comrade in arms. The churches have chimed in, holding patriotic services last Sunday. The lodges are on the qulive and the fraternity signals are being extended with a vlm not often seen. The District National Guards, the High School Cadets, the Boy Scouts and the local veterans are all scheduled to be in the great parade tomorrow. The week is a grand one from every point of view. A "Get-Together" Movement for Christ A "get-together" meeting of representatives of the fifty-eight colored Baptist churches and their pastors in the District of Columbia was held last Sunday at Shiloh Baptist Church to arrange for the holding of a District-wide evangelistic campaign the last week in October and the first week in November. The Southern Baptist Convention (white) and the pastors of the white Baptist churches in Washington will co-operate in this movement and bring to the city four or five colored evangelists of national reputation and several white Baptist pastors of the South. The day and night meetings will be held simultaneously in every section of the city. The Shiloh church assembly was addressed by Rev. Richard Carroll, of Columbia, S. C., and Rev. C. Leroy Butler, who will be in charge of the details of the work. Howard University opened on the 22nd with a slightly reduced attendance.

Miss Davis has been touring New Jersey in the interest of the. Order of Malacgites and giving readings in connection with her lectures. The picturesque people of the Panama Canal Zone have been talked of interestingly by Miss Davis and she is also telling some vital truths about the relations of women to the suffrage. This week she is filling engagements at Allen Chapel and other churches in Baltimore. Miss Louise Cook surprised her Washington friends by appearing unannounced at the Howard Theatre last week. She is a singer of excellent quality and injects into her songs a dramatic fire that never fails to stir the most phlegmatic audience. Her budget of songs was well selected and were admirably adapted to her cultured mezzo-soprano voice.

It was my first experience of camel riding and therefore interesting if not altogether charming. The saddles used on this journey were formed of large pads, one in front and one bebind the hump. The driver climbs into place in front, with a huge peaked pad to keep him from falling off when the camel rises. Then the passenger mounts behind the hump, and the cam- el 1s with difficulty persuaded to rise. ‘This he does bind quarters first, and the passenger finds himself thrust up in midair as if on a tower. The huge pad offers,no possible support, and he ean scarcely overcome his desire to prevent a fall by putting his feet on the driver’s shoulders. That worthy, however, soon comes up to join him, and the expedition starts. The first sensation is of being astride a table, and as the miles go by the table in- creases alarmingly in width, and the tyro on the back seat begins to despair of ever getting his legs acquainted again.—Wide World Magazine. ra = * TERREL TRANSFER COrPANY , 551 Liberty Street East Moving, Packing, Shipping and general Drayage also Storage DEPARTMENT PHONES Office 1962. -- == Residence 3067-L. _ §..D:TERREL and DUNCAN PRINGLE.

AN'D DE CALF HAD CAME AMONG THE MASONS The Old Guard To the initiate and the active, energetic Masonic worker, quite often comes the natural query, why do these brethren who years ago were active in the various bodies, seem so indifferent and seldom show their faces at any Masonic gathering? Were these brethren called upon to state their reasons, their replies would be varied as the personage and underneath it all you would find their absence from Masonic gatherings does not presage loss of interest in the institution and its purposes. As men grow older, taking on the complex cares of business, the family and social circle enlarged, calling for a revision of the twenty-four hours of the day; their old inmate friends within the order scattered by the years around the earth or into the great beyond; younger brethren taking up the labors, and forming their intimate friendships, it is but natural that the elders drift away from active participation. Sound the call of necessity to these "elder brethren", they who carried the burden through the days long since past, and you will find their hearts still beat in harmony with the principles and precepts, and that it is not disinclination, but stress of wildly divergent duties; duties important to Masonic interests as that of attending meetings, or acting as others or upon committees. My mind travels back over thirty years and in reverie recall many brethren now in our midst, active in the affairs of life, whose presence is seldom, if ever, in the meetings of any of the several Masonic lodges. Knowing their former zeal and ardour labors, knowing that their hearts are in sympathy. I am sure that all the young and active and erstwhile ambitions members, while ever ready to welcome back any of the "old guard," also appreciate the conditions and do not nor should they, consider the inattendance as suggestive of indifference. It is rather for us to pay our tribute of respect to these "has been", these pioneers who labored through those days of the past under larger discouragements and builted broad and strong the structure, and we of today are enjoying the blessings that they had not, but dreamed out and labored for. I therefore say all honor to the old guard wherever they may be—Masonic Trestle Board. Duty Masary lays on us the duty to lead clean, pure, useful, temperate and charitable lives; that in every condition and circumstance of life we should remember our high calling; that we should know and do charity, not only in the relief of financial di-tress, but in all the ministrations that love dictates to the just and generous heart that we should never forget our duties as citizens and in all the responsibilities of citizenship be true in private and public life; that in the home relations our lives shall be such that content, comfort and happiness shall reign, and that as we journey through life we shall hold aloft the light of truth, making clear the way to those who follow.—Virginia Masonic Journal Govern your thoughts when alone and your tongue when in company.—Thomas A. Kemphis. The institution of Freemasonry, next to the church of of the living God, is the grandest power for good the world has ever seen. Divine in her origin, sublining in her principles, and grand in her mission, she came into the world in answer to man's cry of distress as he wondered in moral darkness. No blare of trumpets heralded her coming, but silently, gently as the dews distilled upon Hermon she came from the living heart of God to take her place in the moral kingdom as one of the mighty factors to raise man from the "dead level" where sin had laid him low to a living perpendicular of truth and righteousness. Her principles are true as the crystal waters that flow from the glaciers of the Alps. Her monuments are more enduring than brass or marble, more imperishable than the Pyramids of Egypt, for her monuments are human hearts shaped and fashioned by the matches power into perfect ashlars, fit material for the Master Builder's use in the house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. The mission of Masonry is character building, faith in God, the "chief corner-stone". What wonderful, mysterious power there is in faith, who can measure the height, fathom the depth or grasp the boundless scope of its influence? The trusting heart breathes its wishes: quicker than an electric flash it flies along the golden wire of faith to the loving heart of God. In quick response, the gates of pearl are wide open thrown, that His messengers on angel's wing may bear His answer to the prayer of faith. It was the wonderful, mysterious power of faith that nerved the arm of the father of the faithful in that hour of supreme test on Mt. Moriah's brow. It parted the waters of the Red Sea that the Children of Israel might have safe passage out of the land of bondage. It was a pillar of cloud by day and of fire by night as they wandered forty years. Its mysterious healing power was felt as they looked upon the brazen serpent uplifted in the wilderness. It gave courage to the Prophet Daniel to defy the mandate of the king, and thrice daily turn his face toward Jerusalem and his heart toward God in prayer. It threw its mysterious shield of protection about the forms of the three Hebrew child- ren as they walked unscathed amid the fierce flames of the seven times heated furnace. Its sweet influence is felt as it flows in rythmic measures through the songs of the sweet singer of Israel, and like threads of gold it will be woven in the robes of righteousness we shall wear as we stand before the throne of God.—Selected. Three-forths of the difficulties and miseries of men come from the fact that most want wealth without earning it, fame without de-serving it, popularity without temperance; respect without virtue, and happiness without holiness.

A few cents saved each week amount to a large sum in a few years time. Prove it by inaugurating the plan. We never tire admonishing our young men to become full-fledged citizens by paying their poll tax and being registered voters. Twelve cents cotton is making the farmers smile and benefiting all classes of business. The happiness and prosperity of the farmers find its reflection in every avenue of endeavor. In this county and city the colored people pay annually thousands of dollars in taxation for the support of the county and city governments, and in return receive but slight recognition. More than a thousand colored registered voters should be on the books before the national election in order that a big vote may be given the next president who will be a republican. The enemic condition of the children, especially who live in the crowded districts, back lanes and dark tenements, should compell our people to find homes elsewhere. The crusade for better homes should receive the hearty co-operation of our ministers and leaders. The boll weevil has reached the Western and Southwestern parts of the state. Organized efforts are being made to allay its spread and prevent its devastating effects. In this fight our farmers should join and adopt every possible method to destroy the pest. From the 13th to the 20th of October will be known locally as "Pay Up Week," inaugurated by the Rotary Club. It will have a real beneficial effect it it be joined in by everybody. During this week especially, everybody who owe a bill, matters not how small it may be, should endeavor to pay it. The ordinary mind can hardly conceive the vastness of the amount of $500,000,000. This large sum was raised in this country for the allies of Europe. Much of it will be spent in this country. The sum received from the financing of this great amount is itself a small fortune. But is it strictly neutrality? It is true that differences are bound to arise among men but when they do there is no use carrying them to the extreme and into every path of life. The manly thing to do is to settle all differences, if this is impossible, let it remain as pertains to that especial matter, but be congenial and helpful along other lines. This proves broadness of mind. During the past ten days we were approached by more than a half dozen young women asking for employment. As business men, this is one of our problems that can be easily solved by our people, if they would more unstintingly patronize race enterprises, which will naturally grow and demand the employment of more helpers, thus our girls and boys can be employed. Within the past sixty days two destructive storms have struck our section of the country carrying with them death and devastation. The Galveston storm was indeed terrific, but much damage was prevented by the sea wall protection around the city. From meagre reports New Orleans and vicinity have suffered greatly. Savannah has much to be thankful for being out of the path of both of these storms. --- One great lesson, especially that our men and women of means should learn, is to give liberally to educational and charitable movements that are worthy. There are many of our men and women of small means who are ever ready and do respond to these calls, and the ones higher up should do likewise. The time is at hand for us to support our organizations of this kind and do not depend solely upon our white friends. As a race we will be more appreciated when it is found that we Our people have deposited in various white banks, many thousands of dollars where the only benefit they derive is a small interest payment. The banks that are benefited by this vast amount of money will never give employment in a clerical way to any of our boys and girls, nor are they inclined to foster or assist any of our business affairs unless upon very gilt-edged security. In order for our people to receive more benefits from their earnings, they should make the colored banks their depositories. There are more than forty-thousand colored people in Savannah. At least fifteen thousand are compelled to provide a home and secure the necessities to conduct the same. Each one of these homes of necessity must use wood or coal in some form. If we had a well stocked wood yard, it would be a paying proposition, and besides, it would be giving employment to more members of the race. This matter should be considered by some of our men of means, and another season should not pass without such an enterprise among us. Too little attention is being given by us to the proper training of our children. Well reared and well trained boys and girls grow into useful men and women and thus make a race of people of which to be proud. "The new way: 'You tell the teacher if he hits you, I will have him arrested.' The old way: "You may go there to dat school teacher an' of he whips you and I find out, um gua whooop you er gen." Result: The son of the "New Way" goes into the police row and from there to jail very often. 'The son of the "Old Way" rarely sees the police and has little.or no jail record. Moral: Don't spare the rod.—Exchange Who is Our Dean? The Cleveland Gazzette is among the oldest and most consistent race journals published. It is two years the senior of The Tribune. The Hon. Harry C. Smith belongs to the class of editors who have kept on the firing line. Possibly Editor W. H. Steward of the American Baptist, Louis-ville, Ky., is his only senior, else we would justly hall him the nestor of the colored press.—Savannah (Ga.) Tribune. The question now is, whether Editor Steward, of Editor Clifford of the Martinburg (W. Va.) Pioneer Press has been the longest (continuous) in the editorial "harness"? When it is answered, possibly decision can be made as to which is dean of the Afro-American editorial corps.—Gazette. As we understand it, the honor belongs to Editor Steward. He has been in harness since 1879, while Editor Clifford began his career editorially in 1882. Editor Clifford's Press is one of our sprighty and most interesting exchanges. Pitiable indeed was the sight presented Thursday, around the four colored public schools of the city when hundreds of Negro parents whose children had been denied entrance into the schools on account of lack of accommodations, stood about in groups looking wistfully at the school house where all the summer they had visions of their children entering this fall and inhibiting of the valuable information imparted there nine months during the year. It was, verily heart rending to watch these poor disappointed parents, whose little ones, trudging along at their sides, were sufficient in number to fill, at least, two more schools the size of those already in operation, as they would turn away from the schools on their way homeward, each giving unmistakable evidence of the bitter disappointment which was rankling in their hearts, but hoping against hope that the next day would provide an opening for their children to get seats. But there was no such luck. Each school had its full quota and over of students and but few pupils were added to the list the next day. The situation presented in this lack of adequate accommodation for Negro children in the schools is truly appaling. At least a little relief from this woeful condition might be got if those rooms not used at the new Cuyler Street school were provided with teachers and filled with pupils. It is a matter of fact that the Negroes of the city are sorely in need of much more school accommodation. Because of this sore need of adequate school facilities many hundreds of Negro children roam the streets, getting into all sorts of mischief and serious trouble. It is hoped that in the near future the board of education will find some practical way of relieving this dreadful situation. NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE WEEKLY LETTER By J. C. Lindsay In verification of what the Negro Business League has given to the readers of The Savannah Tribune, in its weekly letter from time to time, with regard to what the Negroes in this immediate community are doing and what they are capable of doing, it will only be necessary to call attention in a causal way to how readily they follow a worthy example set by any business man or firm that shows that the business engaged in is permanent and the prosperity of which means the employment of more worthy members of the race at salaries commensurate with their ability to perform the duties encumbent upon them. Less than a dozen years ago, there was only one Negro business corporation in this entire community, the Wage Farmers Savings bank, which, at that time, was in its swaddling clothes. Set a Good Example The good example set by this splendid id Negro financial institution has been followed by quite a number of others, which are being felt in the community as uplifting agencies of the people in the matter of assisting them in securing homes and lifting mortgages from property already in their possession. An error or financial mistake of this pioneer Negro savings bank would have proved disastrous indeed, to the Negroes in this community and would have given us a set back for at least a decade. But the officers and managers of this Negro banking business, of which we are so proud, were determined to lay the Negro financial foundation in Savannah upon which the Mechanics Savings Bank, and other splendid Negro financial Institutions, Guaranty Health and Life, the Union Development Company, the Commonwealth Real Estate Company and the Savannah Savings and Real Estate Corporation might substantially build. Deserves Great Praise The pioneer Negro financiers deserve great credit for inspiring confidence in others of us in this community, they not only taught us by cold precepts, but by example as well how to launch out into the deep and really discover ourselves. Had the lives of these men been filled with selfishness or had they not felt keenly the great racial responsibility which rested upon their shoulders, or had they not been competent and equal to the great task before them in every respect, there would be a different story to tell. Proof, Positive of Their Work As a proof of what we have said with reference of their ability to handle great and, weighty problems, it will only be necessary for one to lift up his eyes and behold that magnificent building which stands as a monument to their credit, on the corner of Alice and West Broad streets. It is said by those who are credited with having full knowledge of matters of this kind, that this banking house is the best of any owned by Negroes in this country. What is Education This question is now being discussed more in these strenuous days of bread winning than ever before. Some man has said that the education which cannot be turned into meat and bread and a good house to live in and some good clothes to protect one from the weather, counts for but little, whether the professor graduated from Yale or Harvard, or, whether he comes from the great university of "hard knocks", the question is, "What service is he to the community?" "Does he make his education count?" These are the questions up for settlement. The local branch of the National Negro Business League has about come to the conclusion that the education which does not serve as a lever to raise its possessor to a higher and a better living, is not really worth its name. The Negro business men in this community stand for education first, last and all the time, but for that brand which lifts a man up and makes him of more service to the community in which he lives. What do you think about this brand? Below we are handing you a band the local Negro business men have long since repudiated for the reason it is absolutely no good. In a certain New Jersey town, a veritable wind jammer came along who knew everything in general and nothing in particular, as to the best methods of getting something to eat, and yet he was a walking encyclopedia. This is what is said of him: "A Master of Ten Languages Begs for Bread on the Street" This man was evidently master of nothing but languages, not even himself. "In a New Jersey town, a day or two ago, a man was arrested for begging in the street. He had no home and no money. Taken to the police station, he said he could read and write ten languages. He appeared to think it was a very hard world which would deny a living to a man so highly educated $ \frac{1}{2} $ It is very likely that, despite his ability to write and speak so many languages, this man was not educated at all, in the real sense of the word-education: "The only possible position for which the ability to speak and write many languages—and that ability alone—could fit a man would be interpreter, and in a country where one language is almost universal, very few interpreters are needed. "You might add to this man's accomplishments, and still not add to his usefulness. He might be familiar with all the classics, with the history of the world, with the ancient and modern philosophers, and still be unable to earn his living. And he might, on the other hand, be barely able to read and write in one language and still prosper—perhaps make a fortune by the application of useful knowledge. "Mere learning is far from wisdom. It does not necessarily indicate ability. And it is ability that counts in the fight for existence that every human being ought to make. You can stuff a boy with Latin and Greek in a college—he can take all the prizes for languages and still be a numberer of the earth when his course is finished. Unless education is complete, unless it develops the mind in every needful direction, it is not good education. The best service that any college can do is to awaken a thirst for knowledge, to take a student far enough along this or that path to interest him in following it. After that, if he has intelligence, he can go on his way, and reading and experience will teach him far more than he could learn from any professor." The point that we make in this connection is, that the young educated men of the race must turn their education into real racial uplift, by touching and elbowing his fellows at every angle and do those practical things worth while. Get a job stick to it and make of it what you want it to be. The Negro business men in this community stand ready and are willing to render what ever service they can to the deserving young man who is willing to work. Come early to your next meeting Wednesday evening Oct., 6th and bring a friend.

MEMORIALS In sad but loving remembrance of a beloved husband and a devoted father, EDWARD LEON, Whom the Supreme Friend saw fit to call to abide with him Thursday October 1st, 1914. What a friend we have in Jesus, Was his life long song; No more trouble anywhere. To that Friend he has gone. Abide with me, another was his daily theme, To us it seems as but a dream; Thy memory still will never flee, Tho He has called thee to abide with me. Mary J.

To the Superior Court of Said County: The petition of Wm. Monroe, Lester Smith, Gus Williams, Jr., Oliver C.

The term for which petitioners ask to be incorporated is twenty years, with privilege of renewal at the expiration of that period. 3.

The object of said corporation is social and charitable, and includes aiding its members and others in distress, extending benevolence to the same, and providing for the interment of deceased members. 5.

It will receive such moneys as may be paid in as dues and donations. 6 Petitioners desire to purchase such real estate as may be necessary for the conduct of its business, and to sell and encumber by mortgage, lein security, deed or otherwise, the same for the purposes of the corporation. 7 Said corporation desires the right to select and govern its members as may be prescribed by its by-laws, and to expel such as fail to comply therewith. Wherefore petitioners pray that they be incorporated, under the name and style aforesaid, for the purposes with the powers, immunities and privileges herein set forth, and as are now or may hereafter be allowed a corporation of similar character under the laws of Georgia.

We arrived in Boston early Wedues day uornins, August 18th, reported a the head quarters, reccived assignments to stopping quarters and arrived at the Convention Hall in ample time to witness the opening session. We met quite a large and enthusiastle dele gation from every part of this great country, including delegates from Okla homa and the Dominion of Canida. We listened to a number of interest ing reports and speeches on business developing among our race, the record showed quite a rapid rise along. the business line among our people. As I see it, we are climbing a ladder of success in this country, the most fortu- nate among us are nearing. the top, the tess fortunate are ut the bottom, but the specess of my people as x race does not depend on the few at the top but rather that vast number at the bottom, since the fellow at the top will not be able to go until the crowd comes, we owe it to them in the rear ranks to help them to catch up inorder that we may all go together. At fy said that in union there fs strength, but divided we become weak and must eventually fai ‘Therefore, 1 uppeal to the citizens of Savannah .and this community to use more of tke getiogether spirit, and let us not become discouraged for indeed — the darkest Hour is just before daybreak: Ist the fault finder become more opti- nlstic, and let the willing workers be- come more willing to work. I need not dwell on this subject for indeed this guspel had been preached in its original form by Mr, J. @. Lindsay, pur vice president, through the Navan {nab ‘Tribune, the mouth piece of our Jeane. We fiud that Mr. Washington, the eminent and efheient president of the National League, and indeed the ace knowlddzed Moses of the race, has very bright ideas in bringing the cace together; ix manner of presiding and maneuvering serves to keep barmony In the ranks of that august body, We find that the National Negro Business League convention iS not a place to discuss pass words, grin and signs, neither the historic parapher- nalia, of fraternalixm, but rather a place where men of our race from all ever the country meet to discuss the business side of life, that is, how many men are in a certain line of business among Negroes, how well they lave conducted their business. One feature of great interest way to hear a .man get up and state that he is operating a factory canning pickles and has more than one hundred and fifty men and women employed daily in his service. So well bas he mastered his Busnes that bé Is stiled as the “Pickle King”. Another grext feature was to hear a woman get up and testify that a busi- ness started more than 40 years ugo by her father and mother as an ice cream business has heen kept alive by her and her brother and they baye :dd- ed more features to the business since the death of their parents, They also give emphasiy to the fuet that their business was strongly patronized not ‘only by Negroes but by whites as well; the idea after all ix to qualify iu busiuess, aud the qualification of itself will demand for you the trade. Now gentlemen, let me insist that those ot us who are in business qualify to do business from a first class stand point, and let us quit ritmning on the old time Hne which has been disearu- ed for many years. If we are to con- uct a real estate business, let it be 2X dignified, up-to-date busines that cum serve thd people in any way neces: sary along that line, for instance, let it be a business like that of our own Mr, Bowen. If we are to conduct a grocery store, let us dignify that store by putting In a well selected and up- journey to the promise land, ‘There should be a publicity com- mittee Including the president and sec- retary of our league to move around among our people from time to time and advocate the Farlous Mnes of busi- ness conducted by the members of the'league and in this wey solicit the patronage of our people for members of the league. We must alxo remem- ber that we are up against sharp com- petition, and were we not up against any competition at all we owe it to the public, gentlemen, to give them a square deat in busines; when a man pays for a pound he wants a pound, Us sew to it that he gets a peck, by do- ing this ft will not only bring the cus- tomer back but through the enstomer likewise when he pays for a peck let yon will get his friends and neigh- Bors.

A wife was seeking divorce on the grounds of extreme cruelty and brutally abusive treatment. ‘The husband was on th> stand under. golug a grueling cross examination. The examining attorney said: “You have testified that your wife on one oc- casion threw: cayenne pepper in yout face. Now, sir, kindlyrtell us what you ald on that occasion.” + The witness hesitated ‘and looked cons fused. Every one expected that he wag about to conféss to some shocking act of cruelty.

Why the northern boundary of Dela- ‘ware should have been circular in form 4s often a source of wonderment. It came about in this way: After William Penn had obtained a grant of Pennsyl- vania he was desirous of owning the land on the west bank of the Delaware to the sea. He procured from the Duke of Yoyx in 1682 a release of ali his ti- tle and claim to New Castle and twelve miles around it and to the land be- tween this tract and the sea. A line that was the arc of a circle of a twelve yolle radius was then run, with New Castle as a center..

The verse found in Genesis ii, “And the whole earth was of one linguage and of one people,” has given ‘rise to tmauch speculation as ‘to the fanguage spoken on the earth previous to the “confusion of tongues.” According to many authorities, Hebrew was the fan- guage spoken by Adam. while others state that Hebrew, Arable and Chaldee are simply dialects of the original tongue. The Persiais assert that there were three primitive languages. The Arable, being the most persuasive, wat used by the serpent in addressing Eve; the Persian, belug the most poetic, was spoken by Adam and Eve, and the Turkish, betng the most menacing, was employed by-the angel when driving the gullty pair from the garden of Eden. Herodotus says that Psammetichus, king of’ Egypt, wishing to learn the language that would naturally be spo- ken by @ person, cansed twa intants te be carefully guarded and kept from all verbal intercourse.

For the Ultra Precise. Professor Thomas It, Lounsbury said at Cambridge in a talk on English: - “But precision can be carried too far The ultra precise, even when logically right, are really wrong. “An ultra precise professor went into a hardware shop and said: “Show me a shears, please” “You mean a pair of shears, don't you?’ sald the deater. “‘No, sald the professor. ‘I mean what I say. I mean a shears! “The dealer took down a box of shears. “Look here, professor’ he sald. ‘Aren't there two blades here? And don’t two make a pair? “Vell, you've got two legs. Does that make you a pair of men? And the professor smiled at the dealer tri- umphantly through his spectacles.‘ “He was logically right, but, really, he was wrong.”—Philadelphia Bulletiu, What It Is Like to Flv.

A placer is an unconsolidated deposit accumulated by mechanical processes, carrying one or more minerals {n com mercial quantities, All placers are secondary deposits—that fs, the mate. rial of which they are composed was originally derived by erosion of bed- rock. Although it is undoubtedly true that under certain conditions nugsets of placer gold have been enlarged through chemical precipitation, yet this action 1s a negligible quantity in plae- ers. Placers may be derived solely by rock weathering without water sort- ing, but more commonly are the result of water transportation, sorting and deposition. Many of the richest plac- ers are those formed by the erosion of older placers and the reconcentrs- tion of their gold. Georce’se Father. Augustine Washington, the father of George Washington. -yas engaged in 1732 in making pig iron at Accokeek furnace, in Stafford county, Va.. about fifteen miles from Fredericksburg, when his famous gon was born. This furnace had been bullt by the Princip- fo company, composed of English cap- italists, as early as 1726 on land owned by Augustine Wushington, aggregating about 1,600 acres and containing iron ore, Mr. Washington becoming the own- er of one-sixth of the furnace’ property in consideration ofthe transfer of his land to the compaxy.

There is pretty good evidence of a Chinese Gutenberg, one Pi Ching, who in 1041 carved cubes of porcelain paste with Chinese characters, afterward baked them and “set” the porcelain type by help of parallel wires on a Plate of fron in a cement bed.

Oe ee ee Memory Verses, 7, 8—Golden Text, Ex. xv, 25—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. In our’ last lesson we saw the tri- umphant entry into glory, without dy- ing, of the discouraged man who want- edyto die. If we would a our eyes on the glory which surely awaits ts We would not be so easily—cast dowh (Rom, vill, 18). We also saw the Spir- it of God in Eljjah so manifestly upon Elisha that others recognized it So it should be with us. Elisha longed for a double portion of Elijah’s spirit and by bis unwavering bebolding he ob- tained it, The Lord wrought through Elijah six miracles and through Elisha at feast twelve. Like Elijab he divid- ed Jordan, restored a boy to lfe, mul- tiplied bread and oil and did other wonders which Elijah did not. Pre vious to the lesson of today, besides those just mentioned. there was the healing of the waters at Jericho and of the pofsoned pottage and the wa- ters that filled ditches without wind or rain. The multiplying of the widow's oil to pay her debt and save her sons vy, 1-7) suggests what might be our privilege if we were empty vessels and belleved Gol. The bringing to life of the Shunammite’s son brings us face to face with Him who is the resurrec- tion and the Ife, who alone doeth wonders and still liveth. The people in today’s lesson are a proud, mighty man, captain of the host of the king of Syria, very self important. but a leper; a little maid of Israel, who loved to magnify the ‘God of Israel; a man of God, who lived before God and Sought nothing from man, and some servants who were wiser than their master. How sad and how suggestive the words concerning this mighty man in yalor who had wrought deliverance for Syria, “a teper.” an incurable sick man with the most loathsome of all diseases. What did his greatness amount to under these .circumstances? Leprosy is the most remarkable em- blem of sin in the Bible, and all are by nature children of wrath, dead in trespasses and sins, spiritually lepers (Eph, il, 1-3). What profit was there in the abundance or the riches of the men of Luke xii and xvi when their souls were required of them? What does it profit 2 man to be great in this world or,to have millions of money if he is not a.saved man? If he dies out of Christ the fate of the rich man of Luke xvi must be his. =| * This Mttle captive maid of the land of Israel, if she had been an ordinary child, mizht have said: “I am glad that he is a leper. Why did he take me away from my home?" and other such rebellious words; but, though she must have had an aching-heart. she was evidently a true child of God and, Ike Joseph in the house of Potiphar, sought to glorify God even in ber very trying circumstances. Sbe was like Pollyanna. She was sorry for Naa- man and told his wife, on whom she waited, of the prophet of God in Israet who could do such wonderful things. How she puts>to shame the complain- ers who are so prone to murmur be- cause of their cireumstances and also all who know of the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, but never tell oth- ers of.it. Where is the spirit of bh who sald, “As much as in me fs, I am ready to preach the gospel;” “By all means to save some” (Rom. 1, 14-16; I Cor. ix, 2%. Because of the little maid's testimony kings are moved and health brought to the leper, but we do not hear of any reward for the little maid. The Lord will not forget ber in| the resurrection (Luke xiv, 14; Matt =, 42). ‘The king of Syria sent Naaman to the king of Isricl with a letter and much silver and gold and ten changes of raiment (verses 5, 6). The king of Isracl was the wrong man to go to, but Elisha heard of it and said, “Let. him come now to me, and he shall know that there 1s a prophet in Is- roel” (verse S). Can you see the great man, with all his retinue, at the door of the house of Elisha, expecting the prophet to come out to him and with some great display give him health? Do you see the man of God calmly abiding in his house and sending a messenger to say, “Go and wash in Jordan seven times?” (Verses 9-11.) Then do you see a great, proud man gohig away in a rage? (Verse 12.) What a fearful thing is pride and self importance, and how foolish are our thoughts! Yet Abraham suffered be- cause he bad his own thoughts, and Mary had three days’ Sorrow! because Johnson Undertaking Establishment Combined with _The Royall Undertaking Company (Incorporated) ea] Funeral Directors and Embalmers Finest Line of Coffins, Caskets and Robes.
