HOWARD UNIVERSITY NOTES Frank Forbes, Howard's former sturdy half-back and colored all-American star in 1911, is at pre-em directing the athletic activities of the colored Y. M. C. A. in New York City. Smith, Hampton's great left tackle in 1913, who is now a student at Michigan Agricultural College, played left tackle against the University of Michigan last Saturday Michigan Agricultural won 24 to 0 and Smith was one of the stars of the game. Ed. Gray, who for four years was Howard's greatest half-back and basket ball guard, and who, prior to his coming here, won athletic distinction at Amherst College, has resigned as coach of Wilberforce University's athletic team to take up his practice of medicine in Cincinnati, Ohio. Binga Desmond, our great tract athlete during 1909-1911, and who is now sporting the colors of the University of Chicago, is considered one of the greatest quarter milers in America today. He represented Chicago in the recent track meet held in San Francisco and was barely beaten by Ted Meredith, of the University of Pennsylvania, who is the championship middle distance runner of the world. This race was one of the most spectacular ever witnessed in rts country. G.B.W., in The Howard Journal. X. M. C. A.

SCHOOL QUESTION ACUTE AT CAPITAL Other Washington News of Much Interest By R. W. Thompson Washington, D. C., Nov. 10—Developments within the past 48 hours indicate that the school controversy, bitter as it has been for many months, is to take on a new and more militant aspect. The Bruce machine, or school ring, is on the run-and has discovered that it must fight for its life. It is freely predicted that by the time Congress gets into swing a few weeks hence, the gage of battle will have been thrown down and the gladiators, representing Assistant Superintendent Roscoe Conkling Bruce and those championing the cause of reform and a square deal, will be engaged in a hand-to-hand encounter that bids fair to be a fight to a finish. That there are lively times ahead is not doubted by the scers and prophets. It is understood that the determination to abandon the attitude of "watchful waiting" and adopt a line of defense at once vigorous and aggressive, was fixed upon at a cause of the Bruce cohorts last Saturday at the home of Mr Archibald H Grimke, who, with Dr. C. W. Childs, of the Board of Education, is to lead the procession for the continuation of the fire-ent order of things. Prominent among those who came to exchange "heart-to-heart" views on the situation was Mr. Bruce himself, who has sufficiently recovered from the injuries sustained in an automobile accident last spring, to walk through the part of chleftain of the colored end of the schools of the District. ASplit Among the N. A. A. C. P Regarded as Imminent Not least among the sensational phases of the "war" is the probability that, under certain conditions, there may be a split in the local branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People Mr. Grimke is president of the local branch. Mr. Bruce was chairman of the "Committee of Fifty" that had charge of important work a short time ago in connection with the organization. The local branch is made up largely of teachers, who may not be free agents for calling upon to fall in line with a movement to bring the N. A. A. C. P to the relief of the Bruce machine Many members of the organization are not teachers, and have no relatives who may have any bread and butter relations to the school Town Topic in/ Tabloid The timely warning of Secretary of the Treasurer McAdoo that the suit to recover $68,000,000 from the public funds for payment of ex-slaves for labor in the cotton fields of the south is without merit, has had the widest publicity, and has saved confiding one many hard-earned dollars, which they might have wasted on designing promoters had the Secretary withheld his note of caution. Prof. W. E. B, DuBoise has made no public statement anent the wide discrepancy between the attendance estimates and the financial report of the recent pageant, "The Star of Ethiopia" "The Colored World." edited and published at Philadelphia by W. W. Rourk, has made its appearance here, carrying a page of well gotten up Washington news. The paper is a neat one and embraces matter of interest to both races. Mr. Edward H. Lawson is the World's local representative Mr. L. M. Hershaw addressed the Mu-So-Lit club, this week on "Public Opinion!" The Etherpean Jouartette, Terry, Amos, Westmoreland and Nugent, rendered a musical program. M. Grant Lucas presided. Miss Vivian Lucie Thompson has been appointed to a position in the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, under the Treasury Department, and assumes her duties Monday. In this great establishment is printed all of the paper money of the country, the postage stamps and the bonded securities of the government, and the employees number 4,300, many of them colored. Miss Thompson was succeeded as director of domestic science in the Whitted High School at Durham, N. C., by Miss Maud Dickerson, of this city, a graduate of the Miner Normal School, class of 1914.

TRUSTEES FOR LIBRARY At a meeting of City Council on Wednesday night, Mr A. M. Monroe and Rev R. H Singleton were elected to fill the vacancies caused by the death of Messra E. E. DesVerney and L G. Middleton, who were trustees of the Carnegie Colored Library. Three New Teachers Parents Who Wish to Have their Children Enter the New Grades Are Urged to Have Them Present Early Monday Morning. In response to a petition for more school facilities the Board of Education at their last meeting Monday night added two grades to the Cuyler Street school. Another first and second grade will be added, the rooms used being two of those unoccupied at the new school. This will give accommodation to about 120 of the hundreds of Negro children who are unable to secure seats in the public schools. The grades will be opened early Monday morning and parents who wish to secure seats for their children should have them at the school before 9 o'clock Monday. By the opening of these new grades and the appointment of a supernumerary at this school, three new teachers were temporarily added to the system. They are Miss Margurite Robertson, who will teach second grade, Miss Cornella McDowell, first grade and Miss Ellose Holmes who will be supernumerary. Miss Lucile Tucker will succeed Miss Holmes as teacher of the county school at Monteith. THRIFTY . AMERICUS COLORED MAN HEADS SAVANNAH BANK Great Success of Pioneer Savings Bank Probably few Americus people know that the financial head and directing genius of the pioneer Negro savings bank of Georgia is a young Americus colored youth, Lucius E Williams, who was born and reared in Americus, as were his thrifty and respected parents. His mother, Mary Williams, still resides here. His father died when he was a child, and his success in life is due wholly to his own efforts. He began his career in Americus as a cotton brander in a local warehouse and to-day is probably one of the wealthiest colored men in Georgia, president of the Wage Earners Loan and Investment Co., of Savannah, besides having large realty and other interests there. The company owns and occupies a handsome three-story brick building on West Broad street, and has an authorized capital of $50,000. The bank's loans and discounts, as shown by a recent statement, amount to $185,940, while it owns stock and bonds aggregating over $17,000. The bank began business in 1900 with $102. Today its assets exceed more than $35,000 and still increasing. At the October meeting a dividend of 12 per cent, was declared and checks mailed all stockholders. The success of President Williams is a subject of congratulation among his Americus friends, both white and colored.—Americus Times Recorder. Y. M. C. A. TO HOLD INTERESTING MEETING AUXILIARY TO BE ORGANIZED What promises to be a far reaching effort on the part of the Y M. C. A. to organize the forces for good among us, will occur on tomorrow, when a meeting will be convened for the purpose of organizing a Women's auxiliary to the Y. M. C. A. It is hoped that a large number of our women who are interested in the development and welfare of our women, girls and men, will harken to the call of the Y M. C. A. to bring them together in a constructive body. The meeting will be held at St Paul Church, West Broad and Maple streets, and will begin at 5 o'clock p. m. ROOSTERS' CLUB MOVED The Roosters' have moved their club room from Reynolds street and are now located at 610 Bay street, west. On tomorrow the rooms will be opened for inspection and the public is invited to visit the place which has been very tastily arranged. Refreshments will be on hand. The opening will be held on Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights of next week. DOINGS AMONG THE GAY OVERHOMERS As Seen by The Savannah Tribune's Representative By. J. S. Blocker Beaufort, S. C. Nov. 11—Miss Sadie Washington has, accepted a position as teacher of domestic science at Manning, S. C. "It's a boy!" The stock left a bouncing boy at the home of Rev Funches last week. The Rev. is all smiles. Miss Morle Rlder has accepted a position to teach at Oakland, S. C. The fair held last week at Penn school was a grand affair. More than eight hundred people were present on last Friday to hear Prof. Wilkerson of the State College. Prof. J. E. Blanton of Penn school attended the State colored fair at Columbia last week, and also had on exhibition some of the fancy baskets made at the school. Mrs. Lizzie Mixon will teach at Warsaw this year. Among those attending the colored state fair held at Columbia last week were Hon. J. I. Washington, Capt. W. I Allen, Capt B H Houston The many friends of Mrs. Hagar Bruen will regret to learn of her death, which occurred at her home, Duke street, Monday noon after an illness of more than three months. She is survived by a son and one daughter, Mr. Geo Wellington Bruen, Boston, Mass.; Mrs. Bradley, Mr. William Bruen her grandson. Mrs. Frier, after spending two months with her daughter, Mrs. Alma Washington, has returned to her home, Columbus, Ga., much charmed with Beaufort's hospitality and wonderful climate. While here Mrs. Frier made a host of friends. The U. B. A are in session at Beaufort this week Delegates from all points are here, and from the outlook this will be a banner session. Mr. Josh Deas died at his home, corner Harrington and Green streets, last Saturday evening, after an illness of more than three months. His funeral took place Monday evening from the F. A. B. Church, of which he was a member. Mr. Deas was for a number of years county constable, and was also on the police force at one time. The orchestra and trained nurses have on a three night festival at Old Fellow's hall this week. From the out look they are having a big success. One of the most enjoyable entertainments that has been put on in Beaufort for some time was the "Tom Thumb Wedding" at the F. A. B. Church on last Monday evening. Promptly at the hour appointed the wedding march was played by Miss Elsworth Jefferson. In came the brides maid and attendants. It was a real sight to see how the little folks would step to the tune of the music, each little couple that came in seeming to have put their very hearts into what they were doing. The affair created a deal of laughter as the little couples began to step up to the arch that was arranged for Mr. "Tom Thumb" and his charming bride. Too much credit cannot be given Mrs. Florence Sanders and Miss Julia Glover for the part they took with the little folks. Mr. and Mrs. Tom Thumb will be at home after their long honey moon. Miss C. McCall is visiting at Mrs. Franklin, corner Port Republic and West streets. ATTENDED CONFERENCE Rev. R. H. Singleton of St. Philippe A M E Church, attended the session of the Southwest Georgia Conference in Columbus this week. He reports in most harmonious meeting. The following delegates were elected to General Conference from the Atlanta Conference at Thomaston last week: Drs. F L Eleming, W A McLendon, R V Branch, F R Sims, J A Hadley, C M Tanner, D H Porter, H D Cannady and B G Dawson. CARD PARTY The ladies' branch of the X. A. A and S. C. are arranging for a card party to be given on Friday evening Nov. 19 at the Young Adelphin's reading room, 500 Waldburg street, west. NUMBER 11 Burglars Visit Negro Business Places MADE A $300 CALL EARLY THURSDAY MORNING G. H. Bowen and Guaranty Insurance Company Losers Early Thursday morning burglar's paid a visit to several business places in the neighborhood of the Wage Earners bank. Four separate places were entered, two white and two colored and goods to the amount of about three hundred dollars were taken. The Negro business places entered were G. H. Bowen's real estate office and the Guaranty Insurance company. From both of these places a typewriter was taken and in the real estate office the burglar's attempted to rifle the safe but could not open it. Judging from the tools which the burglars used in attempting to open the safe and which they left behind, the work was done by novices. The nickel plated knobs on the hinges of the safe were broken off by the men but that was the extent of the damage to the money box. The typewriter was the sole article taken from the real estate office but the insurance company did not fare so well, an overcoat, shoes and other wearing apparel together with the typewriter being taken in the visit to the latter. The other places visited were the clothing store at 462 West Broad from which $60 worth of clothing was taken and the jewelry store at 450 West Broad, whose loss was about $50. That the plunder gathered by the burglar was carted away in a vehicle of some sort seems to be a certainty. It is thought that an automobile was used because about 1 o'clock that morning a machine, a Ford, was seen by one of the barbers of the Wage Earners barbershop, standing in front of the real estate office. The barber recallsthat the lights were turned on full and the curtains were all down tight. He remembers hearing someone hammering in the office, but since it was "dress up" week he thought that perhaps Mr. Bowen, who is always alive to advertising opportunities, was putting on some new attraction for the week. The Negro business places quickly got word of the burglary next morning and the Yale lock people and blacksmith shops did a rushing lock and bolt business all day Thursday. URBAN LEAGUE SOCIAL SERVICE MEETING A public social service meeting will be held on Sunday afternoon, Dec. 12, at Pekin Theatre. Addresses will be made by-Judge C. N. Feidekon of the Juvenile Court, and Rabbi George Solomon, two prominent social service exponents. At this meeting the activities of the Urban League will be emphasized and an appeal made for greater co-operation and increase of the Charity Fund of the League. This is a work in which all the citizens should be interested and they should attend the Pekin in order to hear these interesting addresses. The League has perfected plans for the raising of the Christmas and Charity Funds and the several committees are now at work. NEGRO PROTECTIVE LEAGUE Invitations were sent out by Judge Feldelson of the Juvenile Court to a number of our men who met at St. Paul C. M. E. Church Thursday night The meeting was ceded to order by Rev. J A Martin after which its purpose was stated by Judge Feldelson Rev. J. L. Taylor presided and Mr. W. W. Mumphis acted as secretary. The object of the meeting was stated to be for the establishment of places of detention for wayward boys and girls, and other forms of social service work. Several favourable responses were made and a committee composing of Prof. R. R. Wright, W. S Scott, S A Grant, J W Hubert and R. W. Gadsden was appointed to devise ways and means for the work. The next meeting will be held Sunday afternoon November 21 at 4 o'clock. Mr. John Battise, one of the most widely known barbers in the city, is critically ill at Charity hospital where on last Saturday he underwent an operation. His condition last night showed much improvement. Tea Time at College The Hostess' Frock of Serge—Ribbon Trimmed New York, November 13th—Tea time at college, just at candle light, is perhaps the most enjoyable time of the day The lonely girl from the west meets the lonely girl from the east, and friendships spring up which often endure through life. Many and varied are the topics of conversation at these late afternoon gatherings—clothes, of course, come in for a large share of attention, and often a girl with a small gloves allowance is given a glint or two which helps her to improve her appearance with little added cost. College and boarding school gils often enjoy an hour or two of sewing now and then; it varies the monotony of study and enables them to add effective little touches of their own to frock and blouse, rendering them somewhat different, and more suited to their own personality. At tea the other afternoon one girl wore a simple serge jumper frock made with short full skirt and sleeveless overblouse and an underwaist of dark blue crepe Georgette veiling emerald green crepe Georgette. The guimpe was made with high collar finished at the top with a tiny frill of white; and closed straight down the front with small dull gold buttons. Narrow black moire ribbon formed the girdle, closing on the left side in a small flat bow with long streaming ends. MoGart Ribbon Trimmed Serge Freck Six bands of the moire ribbon had been set on to the skirt at graduated intervals, giving the effect of flounce, and adding wonderfully to the appearance of the simple frock. The ribbon, which the wearer had herself applied, made the commonplace dress most attractive and unusual. Variety in Collars and Cuffs Variety in Collars and Cuffs The simplest frocks or blouses may be made attractive and becoming by adding contrasting cuffs, or an unusual collar; these may be made removable and others substituted at will, thus achieving a pleasing change when the dress is becoming somewhat worn. It is an easy matter to fashion any number of these contrasting sets of velvet, or ribbon (which is at the height of popularity for trimmings of all sorts just now), crepe Georgette, or chiffon. Nothing is softer or more becoming than a hem-stitched collar of crepe or chiffon; it will add a dressy look to the plainest of costumes. There is great choice in girdles, too, this winter. One of the popular notions is the narrow band of velvet, faille, or picot edged moire ribbon, drawn around the waist and tied in long ended flat bows. Possibilities of Guimpse Perhaps the greatest possibilities for varying the simple dress, when one has a limited supply of clothes, lie in the guimpe. These as a rule are charmingly simple, depending for effect upon the color contrast, the soft sheerness of the material, and perhaps a button or two, or a jeweled buckle by way of trimming. The every day dress of serge, taffeta, or broadcloth may have a variety of these guimpes for all hours of the day—for morning wear there will be one of plain black satin or taffeta; for afternoon and informal evening affairs, club luncheons and teas, a guimpe of crepe G'orgette, chiffon cloth, or net, in a harmoniously contrasting shade will render the costume dressy enough and most becoming Three-Piece Suit Another convenience is the three-piece, semi-tailored suit consisting of a skirt and coat, combined with blouse of satin, chiffon-cloth, crepe de Chine or other contrasting material, in the same color or a shade that combines well with the color of the suit. A suit like this is easily fashioned at home, as there is absolutely no sign of the old-time tallored stiffness, padding, and various other things which a few seasons ago made the idea of fashioning a coat at home so alarming. The touch of fur which is so much a part of these suits just now, renders them smart © MCCALL Showing the Muff Cuff and becoming, as well as warm. Among the novelties noticed on many of thee fur trimmed suits is the "muff cuff." These are wide and flaring, made of fur or a fur fabric, and arranged so that the hands may be slipped into them quite as one would use a muff. This idea is especially practical for the suit for shopping or general wear, also for the heavy coat, as there is no danger of losing a valuable muff. Muff Chains Once More While speaking of the muff it is interesting to note that the muff cord or chain is again in favor. One sees it often; knotted satin and moire ribbon often form the cord; the regulation twisted silk cord is favored too, and the jeweled chain is smart and effective. Fur trimmed petticoats and pantalettes are among the season's startling novelties; while the idea is somewhat ridiculous, a glimpse of the fur edzed petticoat showing beneath the heavy suit is nevertheless attractive and fetching. S. J. A. IN BRENSWICK Brunswick, Ga. Nov. S—Dear Editor: Please give me space in your paper to say a few words about the S. J. A. in Brunswick. This is the best lodge of Joes that can be found in the state. This lodge is about ten years old and has not lost a member. We are almost independent of any body. We are making more members and better ones. We have now 50 members in roll and plenty of money, and all of our debts are paid. We wish to say to the S. J. A.'s, at large that we are planning to start a uniform rank among the Joes. We have the honor of being the captain of this department. We noticed in last week's issue of The Tribune, that Surrency, Ga., has taken on now life. We are looking forward to a great harvest this year among the Joes. If we live to see the next grand lodge we expect to carry the largest delegation of any place in the state. At the rate we are going now, by next August Brunswick will have about 500 members from the three local lodges and about fifty members in the uniform rank. This will give us a delegation of fifty members. We are thinking of buying a site in Brunswick for headquarters of the S. J. A., and also of opening a Negro bank in the same building. N. D.

Mrs. Julia Day is very sick to the regret of her many friends, also Mrs. Daisy Meeks.—Little Annie Mae Lingle is still sick.—Miss Ophella McIver left this morning for Thebes, Ga., where she will enter school. Gigantic Man-Eating Lion No less a character than a huge mandevouring lion is given the leading role in "The Man Eater," without doubt the most unusual story of the year, and which will be published from day to day in 'The New York Evening World, commencing Monday Nov. 15. This strange narrative is from the pen of Edgar Rice Burroughs, author of "Tarzan of the Apes," admittedly one of the best serials stories ever published in a newspaper. "The Man Eater" is considered to be a better story than "Tarzan." Don't fail to read the first installment in the Evening World next Monday. SUBRENCY NOTES Prayer meeting was held at Bro. T. Porter's Sunday afternoon and was conducted by Rev. Mobley, pastor of Pleasant Hill Baptist Church. A warm meeting with a large attendance was held. Mr. L. G. Alderman Mrs. Mary Alderman, Sis Minnie Olige made a short trip to Savannah last week to attend the Samaritan's eighteenth annual session—The S. J. A. society received on November 6, ten members. The S. J. A. is preparing to have an anniversary exercise on the fourth Sunday in November and ask all who will to help. P. T. Godman, pres. E. D. Daniels, W P; Sis Allie Gormey, F. S. MR. C. J. HARDSTEW VISITS MANY CITIES Normal, Ala.—Going from one part of the country to another brings you in touch with many people, and many of them are real interesting and will bring you many new inspirations, and many new thoughts. But this is an age of unrest. I don't know whether or not the end of time is just over the fence or not, but it looks a little funny at times, and I am forced to stop and wonder and then drop down on my knees and pray. In Europe you will find them killing each other not in retail lots but in whole ale, and this is largely the young men of that country. Brother is just killing brother and has been doing it over a year. The men of the world are fighting, murder assault, and the Lord knows what else. Crime and criminality run together and humanity is the sufferer. Men are trying to get by without work, and are just robbing each other. This is what I am saying about the world. But you must bear in mind that if it is not all in the world, but there is some of it found in religion, some of it in the church, and in all of the churches you will find some disturbances and in some cases there are almost fist fighting, and in other cases they are striving to kill each other in spite of the commandment, "Thou shalt not kill." There seems to be a disregard for this. Brother is killing brother. In the Methodist churches plans are being made for general conferences. The African Methodists will meet in Philadelphia, Pa., and there are some strong men mentioned for the episcopacy. The Rev. Dr. Singleton who has been in Savannah so long and has done such good work, and whose life is an open book is being spoken of all over the country, and if the general conference should say to him take the highest position, it would not make a mistake. He is in every particular worthy and prepared. It is this class of men who should be promoted. The A. M. E. Zlon church will come together in Louisville, Ky., and they expect to elect some bishops too, and in this the Rev. J. C. Jackson is some pumkin, and he is mentioned for the high position. He is now the financial secretary of the church and in this position he has made good. But then we come to the fighting crowd, and that is in the Baptist church. I have fold you how Dr. E. Jones tried to take the National Baptist convention and failed, and now this is being practiced in other states. Kansas was solid for the old national Baptist convention, and declared they intended to stand by Dr. E. C. Morris. Missouri was not a wit behind and had its place. There were two or three who were opposed to it. I noticed in Tennessee they had a split, and then and injunction or something like that, but it was dissolved and the convention went right on. But now where have I been since I wrote you last. I have spent some time in St. Louis, Mo., Kansas City, in Lawrence, Kansas, and then in Nashville, where I attended the Tennessee conference and the Baptist state convention, and I tell you them brethren waxed warmed and kicked. I just had to look at them and say "Lord From Nashville, I came on down here to Normal. This is the institution which was planted by that great educator, William Hooper Councill, who has paid the debt we all must pay, and has gone home to rest. "Peace unto his ashes." At the head of this school is Prof. Walter H. Buchanan, a well trained young man, a leader of men and a school man. He is the son-in-law of the late Dr. Councill, and is just filling his shoes to the minute and to the time. New buildings have been erected under his administration and some of the strongest men and women make up the faculty. Mrs. Ida Christine, Councill Buchanan, was the heart of her father, and he just put her right in position to serve the people. She finished school at Normal, Ala., under her own father. She went to Oberlin College in Ohio, and from there to the German conservatory of music in New York, and when she finished there returned home, and has been active in work ever since. She is without a doubt one of the finest musicians in the whole south. Mrs. Buchanan is interested in the girls of her race and is spending much of her time with them. No one ever appeals to her for help and is turned away. She is just like her father in this respect. I wish you could have seen me with these educated people trying to look wise and trying to impress them that I had some education too. Well I have looked into the school room. I met Mr. Bullock who is dean of the school. He was at one time practicing law in Atlanta, and was with the Morchouse College. I said to him: "I am gladibue to meetibus youibus, and I amibus and profesisoribus, and I visitibus this colligibus." That man just looked at me, and I just decided I had said something that a college professor could not understand. He will doubtless remember me the rest of his life. I am going to tell you the names of all the members of the faculty when I write another letter. I am going to pass through Atlanta, and going to Virginia. C. J. HARDSTEW ° A Beaconsfield Story. Princess Catherine Hadziwill in her "Memories of Forty Years" has a reminiscence of Lord Beaconsfield: "I think that he never enjoyed anything more than the thunderbolt which startled the world when it heard of his secret treaty with Russia concerning Batoum and with Turkey concerning the cession of Cyprus to England. I remember meeting him on that day at a reception given by Countess Karolyi. He walked quietly into the room with a sphinxlike expression on his face, and I could not help asking him what he was thinking of. 'I am not thinking,' he replied; 'I am enjoying myself.'" TAKE PAINS—IT PAYS. If there is one rule above another which I wish to impress on those who are starting out in life, it is this—take pains. Whatever you do, do thoroughly. Whatever you begin, finish. It may not seem worth your while at the moment to be so very painstaking and exact. In after years you find it was worth your while, that it has paid you by giving you success in life, by giving you the trust and respect of others.—Charles Kingsley. An Ornament to Paris. The Place de la Concorde in Paris is one of the most beautiful places of its kind in the world. It was not until 1703 that the grounds were first adorned by the erection of an equestrian statue of Louis XV. and Gabriel, the architect, constructed the balustrades and pavilions that are seen today. The present design, however, was made by Hittorff in 1854. In 1702 the statue of the king was removed by the populace, and the square became known as the Place de la Revolution. During the bloody period the guillotine was placed here, and Louis XVI was executed on Jan. 21, 1793, and in the following October the unfortunate Marie Antoinette shared a like fate. The Joy That Killed. A senator was praising the humor of a certain congressman. "His humor, however," he concluded, "is rather grim. I told him the other day about a mutual acquaintance who had died, a man he had never liked. "And his wife's dead, too," I said. "He himself died on Monday; his wife died two days later. The papers didn't say what killed her." "She was tickled to death. I guess," said the congressman grimly." Equally Cutting. "Your voice," said the commanding officer, "is decidedly rasping." "Yes, sir," said the subordinate, touching his hat. "I have been out roughing it with a file of soldiers all morning."—Chicago Tribune. Falmouth. is probably the oldest port.

We meet upon the level, but do we always part upon the square? Masonry cand and should do much for national and individual uplift. Selfishness is the bane of humanity. Make one happy and you will win happiness for yourself. Put something into Masonry, and it will be returned to you an hundred fold. Make Masonry a Power Make Masonry a power in the community. Do not be satisfied with jogging along in a haphazard way, just barely keeping the lodge alive, and without influence for good. An active membership, living upright before God and man; a lodge that "does things" for charity and humanity, an efficient corps of officers—such a lodge exercises a wonderful influence for good, and is a potent factor in the upbuilding of the community. If Masonry is to become a power in the land, if it shall occupy the high and exalted station to which it is rightly entitled, then every Mason must resolve that he will do his part in this great work, and that the lodge shall not suffer thru his inactivity. The lodge will stand or fall according as the individual member will do his fall duty, or fails to do it. Where will you stand my brother? There is nothing in Masonry that is inconsistent with any good man's religion. Be true to your faith, and you will also be true to Masonry. Let us have faith in our fellowman, until by his acts he proves himself unworthy. Our very faith may build him up. The Masonic Ideal The mission of Masonry! When the spirit of this order has pessed upon earth, as at last it certainly will, society will be a vast league of sympathy and justice, business a system of human service, law a rule of beneficence; the home will be more holy, the laughter of children more joyous., and the temper of prayer morti-ed and tenoned in sample faith. Evil, and every vile and slimy thing that defiles humanity will skulk into the dark, unable to endure the light of a juster, more merciful order. Industry will be upright, education prophetic, and religion not a shadow, but a real presence, when man has become acquainted with man and has learned to worship God by serving his fellows. When Masonry is victorious every tyranny will fall, every bastile crumble. and man will be not only unfettered in mind and hand, but free of heart to walk aright in the light and dignity of the truth. Such is the ideal, and by as much as we are true to it, by so much are we loyal to the benign mission of Masonry upon the earth. Fidelity to all that is holy demands that we give ourselves to it, trusting the power of truth, the reality of love, and the sovereign worth of character. For only as we incarnate this vision in actual life and activity does it become real, tangible and effective. God works form through man, and seldom, if at all, in any other way.—Selected. The man who has never been guilty of folly is qualified to condemn it in others.-Masonic Standard. Enemies Within People who claim to know, say there are Jesuits in every Masonic lodge of any importance. We know nothing of the fact; but if it is so, it would seem that "by their work" we may know them. But this thought gives us a shock if we pursue it far enough to ask what works would disclose the secret enemy. For there are so many of the "brethren" who are not builders; so many who ride but do not pull; so many cry "peace, peace" when there is no peace; and who minimize the dangers to our free institutions; so many who appear utterly blind and deaf, and oblivious to the necessity of "eternal vigilance" as the price of anything worth having—that we are loath to believe that all of these could possibly be intentional enemies of Masonry and freedom. It is certain, however, that those who sow discord inside the fraternity by personal ambition, personal antiquity, or any form of intrigue; and those who would blind the eyes of the brethren to the signs of the times—these are enemies of the order, whether intentional or not. And we venture the assertion that there is not a lodge wherein one or more such individuals could not be found. Do not listen to them; read the signs and think for yourselves.—Masonic Observer. The Masonic lodge should be, and usually is, the rallying point of the good and true men of the community. —Masonic News. Atlanta, Ga., November S.—Royal Grand Matron, Sis Viola Hart, way in the city to-day. She was on her way to Lafayette, Ga., to set up a chapter for Bro. Marshall at that place.

Hart were born on the same day, in the same month, but not the same year, and there was laughter. That he came to the Grand East following the death of our beloved Grand Master W. E. Terry, and in the same year Sis. Hart came to the Grand East of the Grand Chapter of the Order of the Eastern Star following the death of our beloved Grand Matron. If you ask has he made a success of his work for the Masons of Georgia of the Most Worshipful GrandLodge, look around you; and said he, if you ask if our Royal Grand Matron, Sis. Hart, has made a success of her work in the Eastern Star, look around you. Their monuments are scattered all over Georgia and are plain in view of all who pass up and down the state. He welcomed her to Atlanta in behalf of the Masons and Grand Lodge of Masons. Sister Lessie Ware, Royal Matron of Peace Chapter, presided with her usual grace. Bro. McNairrably assisted the sisters in making the joint meeting a success. Bro Kilpatrick was at the door and otherwise aided the Sisters in their work. On the rostrum with the Royal Grand Matron were Mrs. Clara Maxwell Cater, Mrs. S. S. Butler, Mrs Gussie Knox, Mrs Annie Askew, Mrs. H. L. Ferrell, Mrs. T H Slater, Mrs M L Maddox, Mrs H. E. H.

Then came the banquet served in courses. Lessie Ware salid. Viola Hart punch. Atlanta chapters cake and cream. The meeting closed with words of praise from all. One hundred and ten present.

Under tlie prominent head of “Dem wratie Star Wavering,” the Savannal Hawkeye, 2 deep dyed Democratic pa ver, but edited by a man of convictio nd vision, states that “The results of Tuesday's elec tions seem to be a straw indicat. ing the way the wind is blowing. ‘The results in x mumber of im- portant states show a decided tendleney to return to the policies of, the Republican party, “The Democratic party seems to have embraced almost every “ism” that has struck? the country, includ; ing prohibition, wom suffraze and all the other “isms” in the eat alogue, “The expressions of the people indicate tlt these policies are on the wane, and the Demoerat- party ix going to suffer by reason of the partnership. “It was thought at one time that President Wilson's war polfey would make him the popular idol of the country, and for once history would fail to repeat itself and that the Democratic — fdministration would sueceed itxelf for another term, But the elections on Tues- day seem to forecast the same re- sults as recorded in past history, where every Democratic adminis- tration since the war bas been sent to defeat at the hands of the People. “President Wilson made a mis- take when he committed himself to woman suffrage; he was re- pudiated in his home state, and now his party has suffered im- mensely at the polls partially, it is helleved, on this account. “The great masses of the people want reform, but they don't warit it very long at the time, They will clamor for 2 policy at a time nnd then rise up and repudiate the crowd who put their {deas in force. “The party seems to have held its own in the west, but the East- ern states have gone back Repub- Ucan, and, it 1s predicted, will give “large.

I {was one of the most stubbornly fough' contests ever seen on a gridiron fr this, city. Fisk had a slight advant- age over Morehouse in a summary" of the game, but lucked the needed punet at. the crucial moments. First quarter—Fisk recetved the Kick off on her 20 yard line and brought it back to mid-field, Employ- ing her famous Jong end runs, Fisk carried the ball within striking dis- tance of Morehouse’s goal, but the Morehouse tigers fought stubbornly and held Fisk for downs. The balance of the quarter Morehouse and Fisk,ex- changed punts, Lewls for Morehouse having a slight advantage over his op- ponent in punting. The quarter end- ed with the ball in mld-field. Second quarter—Fisk was playing Morehouse hdrd. Having: the faster team they met Morchouse continually punting to get the ball out the hitter's territory. By a series of long end runs and fake plays, which included triple passes, oftentimes baffling the entire Morehouse tehm, Fisk carried the ball to Marchouse’s 25 yard line and tried at Held goal, bnt failed. Morchousé held Fisk for downs and after having tried in vain to gain by end runs and plungés, punted for 50 yards. Lewis of Morehouse yas set- tling down now and his punts were more acenrate aid longer, but of lit- tle advantage to Morchouse on ace connt of the extraordinary —hroken licht running of Kean, right end for Fisk, who would bring the ball back from 20 to 30 yards. Tisk asin car- ried the ball within striking distanee of Morehonse’s goal and again failed at field goal.

Fivk punted down field and Warren, More- house's quarterback, brought it back for about 80 yards. Marehouse’s back were going through Fisk's line for con- siderable gains, After making gains for about 20 yards, Morehouse fumbled and like a flash Ziegler, Fisk's quarter- back, recovered it and carried the ball down the side Hue for about 50 yards to Morehowse’s 15 yard Ine where he was tackled by Brock, Morehouse's one best bet.

Fisk was penalized twice for heing off-side. The.ball went over and Morehouse punted for 45 yards, The quarter ended with the ball in Morchouse’s territory, Yourth quarter--Fiv was. trying hard to score, but Morehouse realizing that Fisk had the faster team was breaking through her line and beat- ing her back, Fisk then tried her lightening forward passes, but failed three times in suecesston: Morehouse then jitercepted a’ forward pass and brought the ball to mid-field, Tere the two teams struggled, nelther galt ing, until time was called. | Fixk had a margin on Morehouse in that her team, was faster and better ea in inferference. On the de- fensive Morehouse could get through Fisk's line and around her ends, but there she met Fisk’s backs and their wonderful interference. Morehouse was strong on her line and most of Fis’s gaining was done on long end runs and quick, short and accurate forwarded passes. Fisk's hacks would carry the ball the whole distance across the field and outrun the More- house men and then circle around them for gains, while their men put up an impregnable interference. Fisk should lave won easily, but she lacked the needed punch. ‘This leayes Morehouse still one game ahead.of Fisk, having won four games and Fisk three games, with two,re- sulting in 0-0 ties. * The Hre un: ‘Morehouse “_ Position sag Richakdson..!..3L.

BENETICT'S CHURCH The card tournament to take place at St. Mary's hall on Thanksgiving night promises to be a very successful event. A great many articles have already been donated for prizes to be awarded at this delightful party. Tickets are for sale and the proceeds will go to the new school fund. A mission will be preached at St. Benedict's church the first part of the holy season of advent. A Passionist Father, Very Rev. Vincent from New York, will hold a 10 days' service, beginning the first Sunday of Advent Nov 28 lasting until the 9th of Dec. the feast of the Immaculate conception, Catholic and non-Catholies will attend this series of daily morning and evening services. More particulars about it will be given later. Very Rev. Vincent is well known in the state of New York and needs no recommendation. His long career of conducting missions makes him fit for the success of such a great undertaking. His great sermons will be attentitively listened to and highly appreciated by all. A very touching and imposing ceremony took place in the chapel of St. Mary's last Sunday, when two children received their first holy communion. The altar had been nicely decorated with sweet flowers and lighted with wax candles. When the supreme moment arrived for the children to approach the table of communion many a tear dropped from the eyes of those who witnessed the happy event. "Suffer the little children to come unto me and forbid them not." Our Sweet Jesus wants us all to receive Him often in his holy sacrament of the altar. The parish collection is taken up at all the masses. Meeting also for the St. Mary's Aid in the basement of the church after the evening service. BETH EDEN BAPTIST CHURCH Rev. Clarke's subject for morning was "No Flattery in the Pulpit," and at 3 o'clock he spoke at the Ga. State College. At 4 o'clock he took charge of his bible class and at the night service gave a most interesting talk on the progress of the church during his three years' pastorate. It was known that we have raised over $7,000 during this time. God has blessed us wonderfully we have not only gained financially but spiritually as well. Many members have been added to our roll. From the report given Rev. Clarke has made marked success along all lines. We take this opportunity to thank our many friends for their support, for without your aid we could not have done as well. With just a little more of your patronage we shall be able to burn our mortgage. There was a very large attendance at the communion service Sunday night. Don't forget the "Tive Night Pete" by the Alexander Ellis Circle, beginning Monday Nov. 15 and closing on the 19, attractions each night. The Golden Reapers will have its bazaar the following week.

The early morning prayers will be at the church at 5 o'clock after which the congregation will march to Union Baptist church for baptism. Rally day, Sunday Nov 21. It is hoped that all who have cards will do their best to fill them out and turn them in. ST. PAULS C. M. E. CHURCH The people of St. Paul's had two very interesting sermons Sunday by the pastor. The attendance was splendid at both services.—The Junior stewardess meeting Monday at Mrs. Ruth Haven. 2511 Florence street was very profitable indeed.—The Sunday school census, as taken by Mrs. Mallissa Brown and the Sunday school work by Mrs. Daisy Blair, each is receiving much favorable comment. The practice on Tuesday by these ladies together with Mrs. Marie Woodruff was inspiring.—Sunday next is annual conference effort day.

Each member and friend is urged to be present.—Since our enlist the Negroes of his city in a determined effort to improve by voluntary measures the conditions under which they live." DR. WASHINGTON URGES CO- OPERATION BETWEEN BUSI- NESS MEN AND FARMERS Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Nov. 4. By authority of the Executive Committee of the National Negro Business League, I am writing to urge the officers and members of state and local Negro Business Leagues to take active steps at once to arrange "Get-together" meetings with farmers of their states and communities. By carefully working out plans in advance for these meetings great interest can be aroused throughout the surrounding rural communities and, in my opinion, much good accomplished. Notice should be sent to the farmers telling them of the coming local league members, and acquainting them with the purpose of the visit. It is a better plan to use buggies, carriages or automobiles than rail roads as these conveyances will permit wider areas to be covered and more people reached. The program of these tours might include calling on individual farmers, speaking in churches and schoolhouses, and visiting small country stores. By co-operating with the farmers in this manner, greater confidence may be established between producer and merchant, mutual buying and selling methods adopted, and the volume of business of Negro merchants increased. Another way to bring about results through the Negro Business League work is for the local Negro Business League in cities not too far distance to have joint meetings. For instance, the local league at Tuskegee, Alabama, has recently held joint meetings with the local leagues at Montgomery, Opelika and Union Springs, Ala. As a result of these joint meetings more helpful business and trade relations has been established between the business men of these several communities. I have much hope that the local leagues will take hold of these matters for by so doing they will help the farmers solve their problems, and at the same time increase the business of colored merchants.

CHURCH Last Sunday was a high day at St. Philip's Monumental Church. Several hundred communed at 4. m. nad 8 p. m. The pastor Rev. N Bembry, assisted by Rev. Moore, and Bro. Gordon, baptized a candidate Sunday morning at 8:00 and preached at 11 a. m., and 4 p. m. At night be preached a sensational sermon on "What Must I do to be Saved." The League met at 7 p. m., and the discussion was led by Bro. J. Richardson and others. On tomorrow, at 7 p. m., a special program will be rendered by the young ladies and gentlemen. It will be a sacred concert. The mock conference will begin on Monday night. Mrs. Rev. Sivil Simmons will preach the Missionary sermon. Mrs. Mary Campbell, the assistant secretary will render her report of the African work. Mrs. Rev. P.

Another special sermon will be preached at night. ST. PHILIP'S CHURCH Rev. J. A. Capps preached at the 11:00 service Sunday. The love feast was held at five o'clock Sunday morning. At 3:00 the Sundayschool was well attended. The lesson debated was very interesting. At 4 and 8 p.m. the gallery had to be used to accommodate the crowd. Dr. Singleton was at his best. He is very busy and conference is near at hand. He is out of the city a portion of each week attending the other conferences of this district. —It is the opinion of those in close touch with conditions that the worthy doctor will without a doubt be promoted to the bishopric next May. There is much speculation regarding who the new pastor will be. Only two Sundays remain before conference will convene at Old Monumental, New street. Every body is invited to hear Dr. Singleton the remalting two Sundays. BUTLER PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH On Sunday last our pastor preached two inspiring setons. At the morning hour the text was taken from Genesis 3:29. "God's call to Adam." At the evening hour from Psalm 39:14 "Lord make me to know my end, the measure of my days that I may know how frail I am." The Christian Endeavor meetings are very interesting. Mrs. Florence Mitchell read an excellent paper. Rev. and Mrs. Reed will sing on Sunday night. All members of the Sunday school are urged to present on Sunday. Order of services: Preaching 11:30 a. m.

NEGROES AS HEALTH OFFICERS A Southern university man, writing in the "Southern Workman", advocates the employment of Negroes as health officers among their people. He says: "The Southern white man probably realizes but imperfectly just how much natural segregation of the races has taken place in our southern cities. Even domestic servants now very frequently live some distance away from the houses in which they serve. Chog personal relations between whites and blacks have almost ceased to exist. With this separation has come the need of Negroes for help from members of their own race. A band of well-trained physicians has already come among them to help in filling the need of physical welfare. Many of these men must realize more clearly than others what must be done to preserve Negro health. Many of them would doubtless be more than willing to be of service in the cause of public health among the members of t-ir own race. "The opportunity of such service might be offered, with beneficial results to both races, were one Negro physician or sanitary expert in every Southern city of town to be appointed as an assistant health officer under the direction of the white authorities. When on duty this officer should be armed with the full power of the law. He should report to the health office all unsanitary places in the Negro quarters, should take proper precaution against epidemics there, and should constantly be on the watch to bring housing conditions up to a standard under which health and bodily efficiency could be maintained.

Any one who questions the truth or the reality of this story of Jonah casts disbelief on the Lord Jesus Christ, for He called Jonah a prophet and said that his three days and nights in the belly of the fish were typical of His own three days and nights between His death and resurrection. He also spoke of the repentance of the people of Nineveh under the preaching of Jonah and of a future judgment (Matt. xii, 39-41; Luke xl, 32). To question the words of the Lord Jesus is to question God the Father, for He said that the Father always told Him what to say (John xii, 47-50). Jesus Christ said, "I am the Truth" and God is called "the God of Truth" (John xiv, 6; Isa. kxv, 10). Therefore let our hearts cry, "Let God be true, but every man a liar;" "For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth" (Rom. III, 4; II Cor. xiii, 8). -WHOLESALE AND RETAIL Fruit and Commission Merchant 303 ST. JULIAN WEST AND 23 JEFFERSON ST E. Seabrook FUNERAL DIRECTOR AND EMBALMER AUTOMOBILESERVICE FREE.

When Jonah is mentioned people always think of the fish, whereas the fish is mentioned but four times in the book, while God or Lord is mentioned forty times. We are not as right with God as we might be until we give the same relative importance to people and things that He does; therefore let us not magnify the fish, but the Lord. This is called a foreign missionary lesson, and it is certainly a good one on that topic, as we shall see. Two of the great foundation truths of the Bible are "God is love" and "The Lord is not willing that any should perish" (I John iv, 8, 16; II Pet. ill, 9). In this lesson we see a great city of at least 650,000 people (120,000 children) and much cattle, and there was great wickedness in the city (Jonah 1, 2; iv, 11), but God would rather save than destroy them, and He sent Jonah to call upon them to repent that He might spare them.

Agents Wanted That is always God's attitude to the world lying in the wicked one. He commandeth all men everywhere to repent, for He will have all men to be saved and to come into the knowledge of the truth (Acts xvii, 30: I Tim. ii, 3, 4). But how can they know unless some one tells? So Jonah is called of God to go and tell Nineveh that, while the Lord does not wish them to perish, unless they repent judgment will come in forty days (1. 1. 2; ill. 4). At first Jonah is unwilling to go and seeks to flee from the call. Then follows the record of the voyage to Tarsishlah began seemingly so favorably, but suddenly interrupted, for God sent two detectives to arrest His man and bring him back. A great wind to stop him and a great fish to bring him ashore (1. 4. 17). Arrested on the high seas and brought back, it reads like an up to date story, for our God is always up to date and away ahead.

The only man on the ship who knew the true God fast asleep, while the heathen sailors earnestly cried unto their gods. Those who have the Bible and in it the knowledge of the living and true God and of salvation by Jesus Christ for all who will receive Him are as indifferent to the welfare of the millions of so called heathen who are earnestly calling upon their gods as was Jonah when fast asleep on that ship. They need to hear the cry of that shipmaster: "What meanest thou, O sleeper? Arise, call upon thy God, if so be that God will think upon us that we perish not" (1, 6). 719 West Broad St. Phone 3570 He can prepare Calomel so it will not make you sick and can fix castor oil so it will taste like peaches and cream.

And we would surely hear God saying, "Whom shall I send and who will go for us?" (Isa. vi, S.) If God was seeking in this age to win the world to Himself both He and we might well be discouraged, but He is not discouraged, and He cannot fall (Isa. xlII, 4). This book of Jonah shows us his plan. Jonah was an Israelite. After his resurrection from the dead, in a figure, he went to Nineveh and preached the preaching that the Lord bade him, and a whole city sepented (chapter iii). I do not know of another instance on record of a whole city turning to God. Now see the foreshadowing of His plan.

Israel has long been rebellious, but when they shall see the Lord Jesus, the risen Christ, their glorious and glorified Messiah, coming in His glory, as Saul saw Him on the way to Damascus, they will receive Him and with the zeal of Paul will speedily make Him known to all the world, and whole nations will turn to Him and be saved (Isa. xxy, 9; xxvil, G; xxvv, 10; lii, 9, 10; lx, 1-3; Rom. xi, 12, 15). Notice in this book how God used a wind, a fish, a worm and even such a strange man as Jonah and, being first of all sure that you are redeemed by the precious blood of Jesus Christ, say to Him with all your heart, "Here am I: use me." Ob, use me, Lord, use even me, just as thou wilt, and when and where, until Thy blessed face I see: Thy rest, Thy joy, Thy glory share. LEOPOLD ADLER DESERVES THE TRADE OF ALL JUST RECEIVED.

LY LETTER The Negro man engaged in any line of business and putting forth strenuous efforts to make his business go, will find that success will come to him in the same proportion as he makes himself thoughtful enough as to render service to the community life. The efforts of every business man are made easier when he is willing to render assistance to the community in a general way, to which he, of necessity, is compelled to look for patronage, encouragement and support. Every thoughtful Negro business man is planning and working to improve his business and to make of it the very best of its kind in the community. But while it is a fact that he is striving to make his business all that it is capable of being, he, in the mean time, should be above saying or doing one thing against any other Negro business, which would --- By J.

The question uppermost in his mind should be: Is this a Negro business concern? Does it benefit the race? If so, how? How many members of the race does it give employment to? Are thoughtful and progressive people attracted to a community to live and spend their money when it is generally known that the men and women of the race in that community encourage and support each other in business? How am I, as a member of the race effected in my own special line of business when the doctrine of hope, good cheer and optimism has been preached so loud and long until it has become a part of the religion of the members of the race in my community? What prestige and influence has the Negro business man in a community where it is generally known by the other fellow that the Negro in that community, as a rule, stick together and all things being equal, give their trade, encouragement --- (SECOND FLOOR) SALE "...They have $5.00 a length, 25 Dozers o'clock, Ladies at....

These are the questions which the Negro Business League, in this letter, wishes to submit for the calm and unbiased consideration of the members of the race in this city. Thinking Produces Action It is the unselfish desire of the Negro Business League in its weekly letter, to say those things from time to time which, in a way, might assist us in actually doing some well baked thinking. When a man begins to think it is not long before he is ready to act. Now, let's see. Suppose we begin to think of the advantages it would be to us to get behind our three banks, our six insurance companies and our newspaper, the Savannah Tribune, (by way of parenthesis permit me to say the cleanest and newsiest Negro journal published in the state) and get behind our development concerns as well as all other race enterprises and make of them what they are capable of being.

Don't you see that these race enterprises would be compelled to double their stenographic, clerical and book-keeping forces as well as their field workers in every other line? Then, why not think of the best and surest way of bringing about these very much needed results? If indeed, these and other Negro business concerns are forced to expand in their operations, because of the support given them by members of the race, to what race would these and other Negro business concerns look to furnish their enterprises with workers with which their growing business demans? No philosopher is needed to answer this query. It goes without saying that the Negro business man in this respect will follow the example set by the other fellow and look to the competent young men and young women of his own race, to come in and assist him in meeting the demands of his growing trade.

The upright, tax-paying, property owning, registered and voting young Negro man is, indeed, the hope of the race. In our weekly letter, we have judiciously avoided any subject which smacked of or bordered on social or political conditions. Our object and aim have been to keep continually before us (the undeveloped opportunities which are crying for the young men of the race with character, brain and determination. At this time, we break away from our mooring long enough to plead with the young men to go to the county tax collector's office and pay one dollar and get on the voting list, where you will be known as a man. To our mind, it is a sad and deplorable sight to see a young man hailing from some reputable school or college and who, by the way, is almost a walking encyclopedia, who can tell you about everybody and everything except a time when he paid a dollar for his poll tax or a time when he voted as a man. The Negro Business League believes that the pulpit, the press and the various organizations such as clubs, societies, and so on, would be wholly within their rights to occasionally call attention to the mistake which is being made by young men who are denying themselves their manhood rights on account of the insignificant sum of one dollar per year. Let every young Negro man twenty-one years of age, go to the court house, pay his poll tax, register and start off in the peculiar business of bread winning right. It is not enough to have a diploma and be styled as a graduate from such and such college, but on the other hand let the people everywhere know that you are a man. Come to the next meeting of the league, which will be held at the league's headquarters on Friday evening, November 19th. Bring a friend with you and join in the discussion of a fine business subject. SOCIAL HAPPENING Mrs. W. F.
