Washington, founder of Tuskegee Institute and the most illustrious Negro educator, died at his home in Tuskegee on last Sunday morning at 4:30 o’colck, a few hours after his arrival from New York where he was under treatment at St. Luke Hospital. Dr. Washington had been in ill health for some time but it was not thought by his immediate friends thatithe end was so near. Af- ter the visit to the hospital where it was ascertained that he had but a short time to live, Dr. Washington, when informed of the gravity of his condition, requested to be taken to Tuskegee where he might pass the remainder of his life"in the midst of the institution which he labored so hard to establish. Hardly had the trip south ended when death overcame him, The death bed was surrounded by his wife and other members of his family. News of Dr. Washington's death east a goom over members of the race in every part of the Country and immediately preparations were begun in ulmost every city to hold memorial Services to his memory. Services were held at St. Philip's A. M. E Church on Wednesday night and the large ed!- fice was packed with admirers who paid their last tribute of respect to the famous eduentor and leader. Dr. Washington's great work for the race was also attested by the Negro business metr who shut down their places of bustness on Wednesday from 2 to 3 o'clock p. m. The local business men through the local Negro Business League further showed thelr high regard for Dr. Wash- ington by forwarding a floral design to Tuskegee as soon as they learned of his death. < Dr. Washington was buried on the school grounds on ‘Wednesday. It is estimated that more than 8,000 persons were present to attend the funeral services which were unostentatious. ~ ‘The Une of march was formed In front of the administration bullding headed by members of the board of trustees present. Among them were William G. Wilcox of New York, W. W. Campbell and Charles W Hare of Tuskegee; A. J. Wilborn, William J, Schieffel of New York; Belton Gil- breath, Birminghim; Frank Trumbull of New York, and. Victor H. Tulane, Montgomery, Ala. William 3H. Baldwin 3rd, walked with the trustees. ‘The services were conducted by Chaplain J. W. Whitaker and many old plantation melodies which Dr. Washington liked, were sunk. A few messages ‘of condolence were read. Prominent men in all walks of Iife, whites as well ax Negroes attended the funeral, Dr, Washington was born in 1857 or 1858 at Hales Ford, Franklin County, Virginfi. A few years later the family which owned him moved to West ‘Virginia, where ke was put to work in salt works near Madison. About the time the war Ehded he began to show di desire for an education. He went to school about two months a year and read and studied at night, In 1871 he heard of the Hempton Institute at Hampton, Va. He walked part,of the way to Hampton and studied at the institute, from which he was graduated with high honors. He returned to West Virginia, where he taught school for 4 time and then went to the Wayland Institute in Washington. From there he was called to Hampton as teicher. After two years of this Gen §. C. Armstrpng was asked by the citizens of Tuskegee Ala., to find some one to start an institution at that place similar to the one st Hampton. He ree- ommended young: Washington, and the latter took the job, guing to Alabama ip 1881. 2 In 1894 Dr, Washlagton first ‘hecame a national character when he spoke for the Negro on ‘the opening day of,the,Atlanta Exposition.

Were not attained by sudden flight; But they, while their companions slept, Were tolling upward in the night." Why do I say that Dr. Singleton is the man for Epicopal honors? It is not because he is and has been my pastor for a number of years, neither is it because of the friendly feeling that exists between us. It is not for either of these reasons that I am praying for his success in 1916, because I have always been opposed to the false idea of supporting or favoring one for office on mere friendship. The progress of the colored race in this country has been hampered perhaps more on this score than any other one thing, for with our race it seems to be that competency, fitness and merit are not prime consideration, but simply a matter of likes and dislikes. In politics of whatever kind, it seems to be thus: Some one is offered for position, who is competent. Another is offered by some other who has not thought of the responsibility and has never considered the kind of man needed for the place. It sometimes happens that the brother offered has the wisdom and good sense to decline, knowing his incompetency, and before, he can do this, the same thoughtless brother springs to his feet and offers another who is the least competent of all, and in nine times out of ten the last nominated scores the victory, much to the misfortune of the new organization. The sooner the more competent and deserving of our people are honored with positions and offices, whether secret societies, church or state, the sooner will the rate glide off on the peaceful sea of progress, prosperity and advancement. Let us see to it hereafter that the men who merit positions of trust and honor are the men elected. Let us leave off mere friendship, likes and di-likes and support the men and measures that will tend to the best interests of all concerned. In speaking of Dr. Singleton in connection with the bishopric, it is hardly necessary to go accross the great sea and describe the mighty river Nile in Africa, or to tell when some great poet was born, or tell when Chas. Dickins or some other great character died, nor how many children Napoleon Bonapart had, or how many were born to Daniel Webster. Only facts and figures pertaining to the men are necessary. Search the records and see that Dr. Singleton, viewed from every angle, merits and is entitled to episcopal honors. At present Dr. Singleton is a member of the Financial board of our church; secretary of the financial committee of the conventional ministerial Christian Endeavor League; chief secretary Ga. conference since December council; conference president Allen 15, 1897; life trustee Morris Brown College; trustee Wilberforce University; founder Central Park Normal and Industrial Institute It will also be remembered that the mother church, St. Philip Monumental, was wrecked by the awful storm of 1896, and was rebuilt by Dr. Singleton. It is hardly necessary to mention all of the facts connected with the New St Philip and how the congregation soon outgrew the edifice on this spot, and the great necessity for a larger and more commodious building. Under Dr. Singleton's present administration there has not only been erected a most ideal and modern church building but a most magnificent parsonage as well. The good book tells us that the liberal soul shall be made fat, then Dr. Singleton cannot fall for he is without doubt the most liberal pastor that I know. Even during the great pressure for meeting great financial demands for the new church, he never fails to help those seeking aid. He is always willing to reach out, and help the struggling young man. Dr. Singleton is in no way a pessimist, but being filled with the optimistic spirit he is always a helper in every movement for good of whatever nature. Dr. Singleton is a man of splendid business tact and system. This, I think, in a large measure, is the secret of his success. The great results of this indispensible quality has been evidenced and felt throughout the various departments of the church. No where has it been more manifest than in the Sunday school. He never at any time takes on the form of a tyrant, but every man's thoughts and ideas are considered and respected, and by this method he experiences no difficulty in leading his forces. It is said that the best preacher is the one who comes the nearest living what he preaches. I know of no one who wears the sacred ermine who does this more completely than he. Now, my dear brothers in Christ, let us look these facts squarely in the face and remember, if you wish to inspire the young men of the church, if you would have them accomplish something for the church, if you would have them erect churches and become valuable assets to the African Methodist Episcopal Church, then let them see that the man that is honored in the church is the man that has accomplished something for the church and the race. Who could say that Dr. R. H. Singleton does not merit the honors highest in the gift of our church? No one I am sure. We know that he is a man of God and it is our prayer that God will give him the victory lie so much deserves. NEW CHURCH ORGANIZED Pursuant to invitations extended, delegates from the following churches responded to the same at the corner of Reynolds and Wheaton streets, this city, for the purpose of considering the advisability of organizing a Gospel church.

Jenkins will regret to know that she is on the sick list Mr. James Cogeswell and family have our best wishes for an early recovery. The sewing circle meets at the school house each Friday afternoon at 4:00 o'clock. REVIVAL OF SKATING A. Popular Sport this Winter, Indors and Out New York, November 17. It looks just now as if all the world will go on skates this winter just as all the world took up the dance craze last winter. Our hippodrome is displaying some wonderfully attractive skating notions in its present show, and many of the glass enclosed roof gardens have taken up the fad and are giving a skating cabaret instead of the dancing cabaret. This sport is wholesome and appeals to young and old. Piquant Skating Costumes Among the costumes particularly youthful and chic, are the box coats, worn with short flaring skirts and tasselled Tam-o'-Shauters. The Norfolk model too, is much in favor, and the sweater in some popular vivid tone combined with skirt oof corduroy or tweed, is a prime favorite. Each of these suits allows the ease of movement so necessary to this sport, and the grace of line so much sought after in all costumes. © MCCALL Pantalette Costume Fabrics favored for skating suits are tweed, in its various mixtures of soft browns, reds and grays; sweater cloth, warmly and vividly colored; lamb's wool, so light and warm; and unnumberless novelty wools of other fabrics favored for sports use. Corduroy should not be omitted; in wide and narrow wale, is being used for both coat and skirt. The colors are pleasing and the course of wearing qualities of corduroy are too well known and appreciated to require mentioning. Corduroy lends itself particularly well to the belted Norfolk models for golfing and other out-of-door sports, as well as skating. Coats are Unlined The belted Norfolk, the sweater coat, and the box model, now worn for sports are all of them unlined unless it be perhaps a shoulder yoke of satin or heavy silk as a sort of body foundation. This fact makes the fashioning of them at home a much more simpler matter. Sport clothes, being more or less of a luxury, are of necessity expensive when purchased ready made; materials however may be purchased and the garments made at home very reasonably. A particularly effective suit seen recently, was developed in a soft sage green English coating; it was reversible, the underside being checked in soft blues, greens, reds and browns. Collar, wide cuffs, lapels and belt were made with the check outside; the coat was fastened with large brown leather buttons; a line of the buttons extended down the front of the skirt as well, adding a smart bit of trimming. Poekets are of great convenience for sports wear, and coats and suits this winter are well supplied. The various styles of collars too, so much a part of the new coats, are particularly adapted to real out-of-door wear. The wide chin collar, coming well up above the throat and ears is becoming and wonderfully warm and practical. The throw scarf of the same material as the coat, or of a fur fabric, often attacher directly to the coat itself, is a practical and comfortable notion; what could be more ideal for skating than the wide muff cuff, into which one may slip the hands and remove them instantly if necessary, doing away entirely with the danger of losing a valuable muff, and also the inconvenience of carrying one when the hands may be put to better use. Pantalettes for Skating Few of us but will appreciate the practical side of the pantalette petticoat for skating and out-of-door wear. These pantalettes are generally made of heavy satin in the same tone as the suit, or skirt, and for skating, anding and the numerous other purposes for which they are equally well suited, are trimmed with fur; then again the pantalettes are of silk, satin or sateen, the lower part being faced with the same material as the skirt.

The Natty Tam-a-Shapter Velvet, fur-cloth, lamb' wool and the material of the culture are all used effectively in these charming little cars. Some are made Mandarin fashion with just a round ball of fur directly on the top by way of trimming; others have a hanging tassel of silk, and still others are woven with a very long, tasseled end of the Tyrolean skater's cap. Some of these are in black, but the majority are in a bright shade, orange, emerald green, royal blue, scarlet, or purple. The lamb's wool caps in these colors are particularly effective.

SINGFIELD, General Supt Whence came Freemasonry? Masons and non-Masons alike agree that it is of great antiquity, but where and when did it originate? Everything mundane has a beginning, when then was Masonry's beginning?—E. T. Schultz. Men are great or small in statue as it pleases. God. But their nature is great or small as it pleases themselves. Men are not born; some with great souls, some with little souls. One by taking thought cannot add to his nature and he can enlarge his soul. By an act of the will that will make himself a moral giant or dwarf.—Albert Pike. Church and Masonry Personally, I am a Mason for the same reason that I am a devoted member of the church. Both organizations are helpful to me. I never attend church services without feeling that I have been given higher, nobler and more heavenly longings, without being lifted up into sweeter communion with my heavenly Father. I never attend a lodge without being bound more closely to humanity by fraternal bonds and spirit and realize more keenly the importance of serving God and my fellows with all the powers of my being.—Selected. When asked whence comes Freemasonry, some students of its history confidently claim for it an antiquity that antedates Rome and Athens, that antedates the dates of Confucius and Buddah, of Kings Solomon and David, of the days of the building of the pyramids; and are accustomed to assert that our fraternity was old when the soldiers of Caesar landed on the shores of Britain, and old when Alexander carried the civilization of Europe into Asia. As to the exact date or place of its origin we do not know, but we do know that it is the most ancient as well as the most honorable of all similar institutions among men. In Switzerland, when a man petitions a lodge, he is put on probation for two years before he is voted on. After he receives the apprentice degree he must wait a year for the fellow craft. Then a year for the master Mason, unless he shows remarkable progress in Masonry.—Exchange. If you are master of yourself you have a servant you can depend upon. Kindness (Written for the Square and Compass) Ellhu Burritt very truly said: "Kindness is the music of good will to men, and on this harp the smallest fingers may play heaven's sweetest tunes on earth." Pure kindness is benevolent and benignant. It is a generous, gracious, beneficent, bountiful, merciful, ever-pleasant, and consistent in well doing. A little child can exemplify it by pleasant words and good will acts to children less favored than itself. Thus it can inspire child joy and song, and teach adults to "play heaven's sweetest tunes on earth." Sincere kindness is divine. It is exemplified by loving one's neighbor as one's self. Such kindness inhibits uncharitableness and unrighteousness. It includes many shall and shall nots In spirit, in act, and in effort, it requires faithful compliance with the Golden Rule. The Holy writings tell of many excellent acts of kindness and how they were requited. Ruth was a true exemplar and heroine of kindness. She could not be swerved from exercising it and her reward was a blessing of the Lord, an honored place in the motherhood of Israel and perpetual renown. Esther was a queen of kindness. To save her people from imminent danger she imperfled her name, her crown and her life. It was an awful risk, an act that required undaunted courage and perfect diplomacy. It was successful and won for her imperishable honor. Martha and Electa exemplified true kindness. Thereby Martha gained Imanuel's approval and favor. Also thereby, Electa received St. John's sincere and loving commendation, and doubtless now wears a heavenly crown. Solomon said: "The desire of a man is his kindness." And of a pure woman, King Lemuel said: "In her tongue is the law of kindness." How good and pleasant it would be now if that law were in the tongue of every Mason and Eastern Star member! Then, certainly, the "music of good will" would prevail, and confusion, discord and unfaithfulness would be unknown. Nehemiah, Joel and Jonah proclaimed the "great kindness" of the Lord. The sweet singer of Israel acknowledged the marvelousness, mercifulness and excellence of God's kindness, and affirmed that "His mercy endureth forever." Loving and worshiping Him is the supreme duty. No greater blessing or joy can be uttained than that of receiving His present and everlasting kindness. May it be the supreme aspiration of each Freemason and Eastern Star member to attain that blessing and joy—Selected. Every part of the Masonic ceremony has a meaning, and the ability to interpret the meaning constitutes the Masonic education. If you want to learn Masonry you must devote some of your time to its study. There is only one way to get it: Rulers of men are they who can subdue their own passions. This is one of Masonry's strongest lessons. There is no room in Masonry for the sluggard. The bee-hive teaches industry. Kindness will overcome hate. Masonic love will melt the hardest heart. Let your life be such that your wife, mother, sister or daughter will, use their influence to induce others dear to them to also become Freemasons.—Masonic Journal. Canadian Masons believe that all of Masonry is esoteric, consequently public installation of the officers of a lodge is not permitted, as in the United States. A THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK There is a new awakening along business lines which argues for greater strides toward the accomplishment of much and the strengthening of those who are already in business by combining the strength of many who are now merely eking out an existence. "Co-operation in business" is the new slogan. The old idea that another man must not engage in the same line of business that we are engaged in has had to give way to the new idea that by co-operation many can succeed where none can single-handedly.—The Nashville News. MOREHOUSE COLLEGE NEWS Atlanta, Ga.—Among the interesting events of last week in the life of Morehouse College was the physical training demonstration in Sale Hall chapel Friday night by Miss Cole of New York, a graduate of the famous Harvard School of Physical Training.

Her services in the Neighborhood Union are sure to bring untold benefits. She was assisted by Mrs. Willis of Clarke University and by the college orchestra. $ \textcircled{2} $ The Y. M. C.

BARRED BY COLOR FROM BELLE-VUE AS INTERNE, HE SAYS Negro, Graduate of Cornell University and Medical College, Charges Because a young Negro who is a bachelor of arts of Cornell University and a graduate of the Cornell University Medical College failed in a competitive examination to qualify as intern at Bellevue and Allied Hospitals, 100 Negroes protested last night in Concord Baptist Church. Duffield street near Myrtle Avenue, Brooklyn, that he has been dis-qualified on account of his color. In connection with this meeting it was learned that yesterday that Mayor Mitchell had investigated the case and that President Schurman of Cornell University had requested a report from Dr. W. M. Polk, Dean of the medical college. The Examination The young Negro is Roscoe Conkling Giles of No 1603 Pacific street, Brooklyn. With eleven other applicants he appeared before the Examining Committee of the Second Division, Believe, on February 19 last for examination. The examination was in three parts, written, oral and practical. The committee counted out Giles before he reached the practical examination. Francis F. Giles, the Negro's father, complained to President Schurman and a committee of Negroes protested to Mayor Mitchell. Young Giles in a long statement alleged that an attending physician at Bellevue told him if he persisted in taking the examination the examiners would grade him 50 per cent. off on personality and make it impossible for him to pass, and that he was informed the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees of Bellevue were opposed to his admission. He set out his good record at the medical college, and the fact that the members of his class with poorer standings had passed the examination as facts indicating racial discrimination. Persons who have taken an interest in young Giles' medical difficulties, according to his father are William Jay Schleffellin, Herman A. Metz and Oswald G. Villard. Declined to Act Mayor Mitchell after receiving a report from Dp. John W. Brannan, President of the Board of Trustees of Bellevue, informed the protesting Negroes that there was nothing further he could do. President Schurman declined to take any action when he received Dean Polk's report. Dr. John A. Hartwell, Chairman of the committee which examined Giles, had told the Dean that the young Negro simply failed in the examination. Dr. Brannan told a World reporter last night that Giles had had an equal chance with other applicants. "We went into the matter very thoroughly at the request of the mayor." Dr. Brannan said. "Of course it is easy for a man who feels chagrined over his failure to say that he was the victim of racial discrimination. In our examination we took up the matter of his grades. It is a pure fabrication that he was graded 50 per cent, off for his personality. He failed in his subjects." Dean Polk was in Washington yesterday but Dr. Hartwell declared a full investigation had been made and that so far as he was aware the incident was closed. Passed Two State Examinations. Passed Two State Examinations. Roscoe Conkling Giles has passed the New York and Illinois state medical examinations, and is in Chicago with the expectation of becoming an interne there in a hospital receiving only Negroes as patients. His father says legal steps will be taken to in quire into the examination at Bellevue, but he would not say against whom such action would be directed. The grades of candidates are kept secret and can only be obtained by order of a court, so the examining authorities maintain. The Negroes who met in Brooklyn last night passed resolutions condemning the alleged discrimination against Giles and propose to form later plans for taking further steps in the matter.

Now that New York's four law schools are graduating hundreds of pupils annually, it is interesting to recall the time when New York had no law school and a local newspaper could say, "It is strange if a series of law lectures in so large a city as New York would not pay." This was printed in June, 1835, in an item which began, "Mr. George H. Moore stated at the late alumni dinner of New York university that a law department of that institution was really created, and its professors really delivered their inaugural addresses." Benjamin F. Butler, Esq., Judge Kent and the late David Graham constituted the law faculty.—New York Tribune. Double Punishment Punishment for giving short weight is far from new, and the Turks long ago took drastic measures to check this tendency on the part of tradermen. The Sultan Achmet II, walking through the streets of Stamboul, saw at the door of a baker's shop the owner, his hands tied behind him, with one ear nailed to a post. Upon inquiry he was, told the cause of the poor fellow's predicament. "Who is he?" asked the sultan. "May it please your highness," was the reply, "he supplies the bread for the imperial zergillo." "Ah, my baker? Then set up another post and nail his other ear to it. The sultan's baker should have a double reason for honesty." Those Who Buy Them. The man who can't afford to buy one; the man who prefers to own a good team of thoroughbreds; the man who doesn't mind the first cost; "but it's such an expense to run one;" the man who wouldn't have time to enjoy one the man who would like one all right "only I want to get my place paid for first"-they are all buying cars so fast that the factories can't keep up with orders. Before long there will not be enough pedestrians left to furnish sport for the drivers. -Puck. An Ambidextrous Metaphor.

Lord Wolseley maintained that Ostend would have been the scene of a desperate battle in 1815 if Napoleon's bodily strength had then proved on a par with his brain power. "The more I study the Waterloo campaign," Wolseley told Grant Duff, "the more highly do I think of Napoleon. If his physical condition and energy had been equal to the powers of his mind, I think he would have succeeded in his design and would first be beaten the Prussians and then driven us back on Ostend. * * * In spite of his odious and contemptible character Napoleon was the greatest man of whom we know anything and quite unlike anybody else."-London Mirror.

The ego and selfishness contained in the seemingly harmless letter "I" and the plain words "me" and "mine", have ruined many lives that could have been of much usefulness to a community or people.

Other states will soon be bringing forth their favorite sons thus giving the people a chance to size up and decide upon the most favorable ones. Our two daily papers were the only ones to raise a discordant note in commenting on the death of Dr. Washington. They were compelled to mention two acts unjustly charged to Mr. Washington. It seems hard even in death for them to use the mantle of charity. The morning paper even went so far as to use a cut showing the bandaged head of Mr. Washington, taken soon after the New York episode. The death of Booker T. Washington has removed one of the most valuable assets the Negro race possessed. His life, was so intertwined in the development of the race that at sadder and more irreparable loss could not be sustained by the ten million black souls in this country who are toiling and working that the race might some day reach its proper place among the great people of the universe. Mr. Washington was indeed a great man. He was the possessor of a mind with clean, clear-cut, practical ideas, and was so imbued with the importance and sacredness of his work that he was at all times absolutely oblivious of self. It is true that there are those who differed with his methods, but have not all men who have attempted such Herculean tasks as Mr. Washington has met with opposition more or less? Yet he faltered not and with the wonderful amount of energy possessed an unusually clear vision, he went forward building up a following the like of which no Negro and few leaders of any other race have yet attained. His life's work, permeated every phase of Negro endeavor and his careful guidance of the race thru critical periods showed him to be a man of wonderful judgment and unusual foresight. As an educator, he was recognized by the leading minds of the world, and not only was he honored by having many degrees conferred, upon him by the foremost educational institutions of this country but the crowned heads of the old world time and time again paid him distinguished honor. His work at the famous school which he established at Tuskegee has reached thousands of his unfortunate race-men and secured recognition wherever heard of. As an advocate of the building up of Negro business enterprises he is without a peer and today hundreds of reputable commercial enterprises are to be found throughout the length and breadth of our country whose beginnings can be directly traceable to the teachings of the "wizard of Tuskegee." It was he who organized and started the Negro business League through which thousands of Negroes received the necessary stimulus and encouragement to launch out for themselves on the sea of commercial endeavor. Mr. Washington was an advocate of unity and during his numerous travels-through this country he never lost an opportunity to urge the solidarity of the race along all lines of endeavor. Indeed the race has been sorely unfortunate in the death of Dr. Washington, but the brillancy of the life he lived and the devotion to the cause he espoused will stand out as beacon lights to posterity. DR. BOOKER T. WASHIGTON DIED SUNDAY AT TUSKEGEE hlm. His first wife was Fannie M. Smith, whom he married in 1882 and who died in 1884. She was a graduate of hampton, the wedding took place in Tuskegee. In 1885 he married Oliva Davidson, a teacher at the school. She died in 1889, and Dr. Washington married Margaret J. Murry, graduate of Fisk University in 1893. He leaves three children, two sons and a daughter. His daughter, Portion, was born of his first marriage; his two sons, Booker T. Jr., and Edward Davidson, of his second. Dr. Washington was the most widely known Negro of his time and had many distinguished honors bestowed upon him both in this country and by the crowned heads of Europe. Harvard and Dartmouth Universities conferred degrees upon him and he was otherwise signally honored. In 1904 President Theodore Roosevelt had him to luncheon in the White House, the first time a member of the race was ever so honored by a president of the United States. Dr. Washington was one of the greatest organizers of this race, the National Negro Business League being one of the great movements he has fathered. He was an author of much note. Several books have been published by him and he has been widely read through magazine articles. The high regard in which the press of the country held Dr. Washington may be seen from the following editorials: "I am deeply shocked and grieved at the death of Dr. Booker T. Washington. He was one of the distinguished citizens of the United States, a man who rendered greater service to his own race than had ever been rendered by anyone else and who, in so doing, also rendered great service to the whole country. I mourn his loss and feel that one of the most useful citizens of our land has gone." Theodore Rooe-evert. A STORM RECALLED Near the beginning of his career in the White House President Rosevelt invited Booker Washington to dine with him. The South broke info fury. Its Republican congressmen, few and far between, were put to it to account for the episode. Linny of North Carolina explained to his confiding constituents that when the noon hour came Rosevelt looked up to say: "Aren't you hungry Booker? Of course you are. Here Mandy, go and get Booker something to eat; give it to him out there with you; there now, Booker, you'll feel better." Democratic congressmen took the opposite tack. They exaggerated the episode. Alabama elected Helfin to Congress after declaring that he wished the same man who had assassinated McKinley had been there to throw a bomb under the table. Senator Bailey of Texas reported that the episode created considerable trouble in his locality; a young colored man promptly announced that Booker would be the next President, following Roosevelt, and that the colored young men would pay court to white girls. The author of this theory was that night e-corted out of town, and has never been conspicuously in evidence since. The Southr won, in the controversy, to this extent: Roosevelt never invited Booker Washington to dine with him again, nor, did Taft or President Wilson ever proffer similar hospitalities. It is doubtful if in the near future any president risks the favor of the South by doing so. As a nation, we enforce the most serious race proscription in the world.—Boston Herald, Monday Nov 15, 1915. Tuskegee's Maker. Dr. Booker T. Washington's works among the members of his race was based on the belief that the Negro would win social and political advancement only after he had achieved economic independence and stability. He held that time was better spent in demonstrating the capacity of the black man in those callings that are now opened to him than in seeking opportunities in fields where every factor was opposed to him. This policy brought Dr. Washington into conflict with many other leaders of the Negroes, but he maintained it from the beginning of his work at Tuskegee. He was not less concerned with the progress of the blacks in the United States than with those with whom he could not agree as to methods; their dispute was over the means to be used, not the end to be sought. His belief was supported by the Intelligent judgment of thousands of citizens who saw in Tuskegee a possible instrument for the solution of a pressing problem. Did the school's success depend on Dr. Washington's energy and personality, or was he able to install an organization competent to continue it? Such questions will be answered in the not remote future; it is to be hoped that the institution in which he labored for more than a generation possesses the apparatus and personnel necessary to its continuance and growth as a memorial to this sensible and interesting educator. New York Sun. A Real Benefactor to His People Recognition of the great work Booker T Washington did for the people of his race is universal. In him there was a combination, always rare, of imagination that gives real breath of vision and administrative talent capable of directing the doing. A man of sterling character, his success was due in large measures to the impress he made upon other men of his perfect sincerity. His theory of education for the Negroes of the Southern states is but illustrated by his application of it in his own house hold. When President McKinley was reviewing an Industrial parade at Tuskegee Dr. Washington turned to him and said: "Mr. President, do you see that lad?" pointing to a float upon which bricks were being made, "That," he added, "is my son. Some day he may be a good teacher or a good lawyer or a good doctor, but he is going to be a good brick maker first." To equip the youth of his race with knowledge that would enable them to earn an honest, honorable living was his alm. Tuskegee will ever be a monument to the man born in slavery who devoted his life to the uplift of his race, and in doing it he won the respect and admiration of all. America.—New York Herald. Tuesday Nov. 16. Booker T. Washington The Negro race suffered a severe blow in the death of Booker T. Washington, the recognized leader of the race. Washington is due every word of praise that has been said of him since his untimely death, for he has done more for the uplift than every agency com- bined. Not only does his race feel the loss, but the country at large feels with regret his passing. It will be hard, yea impossible, to replace him. During the period of his leadership in his efforts to create a place in the world for his people, the race has made wonderful strides. The south, no less than any other part of the nation, recognizes and appreciates this. The thousands of people of the south who accepted him as their premier will be better for Washington's great ability. No man who lived with and for his people as did Washington ever reached such standing in his country and the world-at-large. He was a man in every sense of the word. His wonderful achievements be-peak this as nothing else can. All the races of the universe who knew Booker T. Washington by his works will sympathize sincerely with the Negro people in their loss of their chief-tain- Florida Metropolis. Tuesday Nov. 16th. If the United States is not tell the land of opportunity, how are we to account for the career of Booker T. Washington? Born a slave, he did not even inherit a name. A member of a race desplaced and oppressed, he fitted himself for education at Hampton, and with the training that he then received he became famous as an instructor and leader of men. There is not a Negro in this country today whose outlook is so unpromising as that of the Virginia slave boy. There is no white man who suffers such handicaps. Booker Washington's success in life may be explained in part by hard work, but more important than that was his early recognition of the fact that he was the master of his own fortunes. He compelled respect because he was respectable. He made no claims upon others that he was not prepared to justify. He was received everywhere as an equal not because he asserted the right but because in his character and achievements he proved that he was serviceable. Contemplating a life like his, most Americans must be thankful that hereafter it cannot be written of such a man that he was born a slave. That stigma, which did not attach to Booker Washington that to the country which gave him to the world, will be placed no more upon Americans. In the brief span of fifty-six years he sounded the depths of a Republic false and scaled in the heights of a Republic true. That is a lesson that men of every degree and station may learn from his struggles and triumph if they will.-The World, Tuesday Nov. 16th. Booker T. Washington When Appomattox left the exslave stranded on the strange shore of freedom, many toll-bent field hands wanted their children to learn Latin. What Latin was they had, no idea; they knew it played some part in the culture to a section more given to oratory and politics than chemistry and manufacture. Need developed leaders in wiser ways; the greatest of these died yesterday. Booker T. Washington did not know how old he was. He must have been born before 1850, the date usually given, else we must suppose him placed at twenty-two at the head of Tuskegee. He had learned at Hampton, and at once began teaching that what the black needed was steady work and money in the bank. He praised the Negro banker, teaches, lawyer, physician; he could take a quiet quilzic satisfaction in the prowess of Jack Johnson; but what pleased him most was that 2,500,000 Negroes were living in owned homes' in 1910 and that Negro farmers owned more than one billion dollars' worth of cultivated farms. Herein Dr. Washington was a wiser leader than those impetuous souls who demandee for the Negro at once political right and cultured opportunity. The Negro is on the soil. He is in the south. His surest, shortest road to an assured place is efficient Dr. Washington was far-seeing in his desire to work in harmony with white, men of his section. It is to the credit of the whites that they were so ready to work with him.—The World, Monday Nov., 15. NEGRO BUSINESS, LEAGUE WEEK. LY LETTER $ ^{1} $ By J. C. Lindsay A certain philosopher said once upon at time, "He who spits against the wind spits in his own face." In this code of business ethics of the Negro business men of this community, these words may be found, "He who attempts to hinder the progress of another, hinders his own progress." It was the late Dr. Booker T. Washington, our lamented chieftain, who said: "The only way for one individual to keep another down in a ditch who is made of the right kind of material, is to stay in the ditch with him and hold him down," which means, that that they both will be left in the ditch together. The work to be done in this community is of too much importance and the need of which is entirely too great that any one of us under any circumstances should allow our influence to be thrown in the wrong direction. One great orator of the race said on one occasion, "It takes all the Negroes in nearly every community to make one good man." Be that true or untrue, the fact we wish to stress in this connection is this, the black man in this country is not far enough removed from the baneful condition in which he found himself immediately after his emancipation, brought on by the years and years of slavery through which he passed, and the teachings of which as regard his own kith and kin were to mistrust them, disparage their ability to do things right, and, in short, he was taught that all goodness, thought, and ability to do things were embodied in and emancipated from the other fellow. Therefore in view of these conditions, we hold that there is much work to be done in the way of causing us to see the absolute need of each and every one of us laying aside our mistrust, if, indeed, we hold any, as one against the other, and work harmoniously together in every good and laudable undertaking, thus, showing to all men, without regard to race, creed or color, that the Negro men in this community are all for one and one for all. Heads Together. Not Heels Heads Together, Not Heels When heads are put together for the common good of all concerned, then business picks up. We are entirely too weak for a division of strength, whether it be financial or otherwise. With the proper concentration of our forces systemitized and well marshaled; with every business man thinking good thoughts of his neighbor in business and saying good things about him and about the interest which he may represent, there will be a mighty awakening in Negro business circles, which will merit and envoke the favorable consideration and praises of the other fellow, whether he agrees with you in the toto or not. Whenever and wherever the thoughtful Negroes, of THE CONVENIENCE of BANKING WITH its accessibility its financial strength, and the painstaking service which it renders to patrons, this bank offers an ideal association for business men and others who require the services of a conveniently located and resourceful bank. If you contemplate a change in your presence banking connection, or intend to form a new connection, an invitation is extended to you to call and discuss the matter with an officer of this bank Wage Earners Savings Bank West Broad Alice Sts. SAVANNAH, GA together for the promotion of any worthy enterprise it is well known by all what the results of the efforts have always been. Through such combinations of financial strength they have built banks, schools, department stores, insurance companies, real estate, corporations, publishing plants, well circulated and influential newspapers, first class undertaking establishments, and, in fact, all of the great accomplishments of the race have been brought about through the efforts of men who, instead of turning their heels upon each other, as is said of the proverbial Texas mule, they put their heads together. Move up or Move Back. Move up or move back is what the young Negro man will be compelled to do. There is no such thing as standing still. In this age of sharp competition the men of the other races are putting forth the best endeavors in them to get every possible revenue out of the business, in which they are engaged so that the cost of production and operation are being cut to their lowest possible minimum. One of the saddest features in connection with these cuts which are found necessary in the operation of these concerns operated by the other fellow from time to time, whether they come as a result of high class artisans or because of improved machinery, nine times out of ten, the young Negro finds himself the loser, and as a consequence he alone is forced to move back. It cannot always be truthfully said that the young Negro man is forced back by the other fellow because of the intense hatred the other fellow has for him, but on the contrary, the other fellow remembers and cherishes the scriptural injunction which says, "Be charitable to all men, but especially to those of the household of faith." He, the other fellow, realizes that certain conditions in this country causes him to feel more responsible for the welfare of his own kith and kin than he should feel for one of us, the dusty son of Ham. Important Lesson This is an important lesson which every mother's son of us should learn. We should learn that there are certain conditions which confronts us in this country, which should cause us to give our thoughtful consideration to those of our own brethren in business first. No same man without regard to creed or color, will think unkindly of another who looks to the welfare of his own kith and kin before attempting to look after others who are able in many respects to care for themselves. The Negroes engaged in business in this city cannot justly complain of the race not supporting their enterprises, as each and all of them who really go out for business in a business way, usually get what they go for. The business man (?) who sits around whining and complaining about his trade going from him, nine times out of ten, is getting what he really deserves. Instead of cleaning up advertising and letting the people know what he has to sell, he whines and talks hard times. Mr. Businessman, try a good, sensible, well written ad in some well circulated Negro journal plus a little ginger in your business and see what will happen. Come early to your next meeting, Monday evening, December 6th, Alice and West Broad streets. Mrs. Janie Crawford died on Wednesday of last week after an illness of thirty-five days.

At the recital Henry Lee Grant officiated gracefully at the piano, the Euterpean quartette sang effectively and Miss Florence Baker interpreted rhythmically Godard's divine dance "At Morn." Major John R. Lynch drew a monster crowd at Bethel Literary Society Tuesday evening. Particulars next week. Miss Minnie Brown, the New York prima dona, known as "The Girl from the Golden West," when Williams and Walker discovered her a few years ago at Spokane, Wash., and brought her east with their company, is to give a recital December 3 at John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church, under the auspices of the Amphion Glee Club, for the benefit of the Y. M. C. A. The affair will be directed by Prof J. Henry Lewis, leader of the Amphions Mme. E. Azalla Hackley comes to the capital in February. · The Wiseman Brothers have opened a well stocked tea, coffee and sugar emporium on 7th street, and the Murray Brothers have launched a similar enterprise on 11th street. Dr. A. M. Curtis, Jr., second son of Dr and Mrs. A M Curtist, has been appointed assistant medical director to Tuskegee Institute Hospital and Training school, and has gone to Dr. Washington's great school to report for duty. Dr. Curtis is a graduate of the medical department of Howard University and served a year as an interene at Freedmen's hospital. He followed this up with post-graduate work at Old General hospital at Kansas City, Mo., from which place he was called to Tuskegee. Dr. Curtist will assist Surgeon-in-Chief John A. Kenney, who is called away from Tuskegee frequently to travel with Dr. Washington as his personal medical adviser. Prof. William Pickens, dean of Morgan College, Baltimore, spoke at Howard University last Sunday afternoon in Andrew Rankin Memorial Chapel. Minister to Liberia Curtis at State Department Counsellor James L. Curtis, of New York, has been in the city for several days, spending much of his time at the state department, where he has been receiving instructions as to the duties incumbent upon him as Minister Resident and Consul-General of the United States in the Republic of Liberia. Mr. Curtis, accompanied by his wife, Mrs. Helen Curtis, will sail from the metropolis on the 27th for Monrovia, going by way of Liverpool. Sudden Passing of Warren G. Fearing All Washington was shocked last Wednesday to learn that Mr. Warren F. Fearing, one of the capital's best loved and most useful citizens, had passed away suddenly at his home, 1716 15 street, northwest. His death resulted from a second stroke of paralysis on the morning of Nov. 3, quickly following a first attack on the previous Sunday. His funeral was held at Plymouth Congregational Church, of which he had been an active member for many years. The services were conducted by Rev. Alexander C. Garner. DOINGS AT ATLANTA UNIVERSITY Atlanta, Ga-Rev E C Haynes of Atlanta has offered the students of the University a prize for the best work in English composition. The conditions of the contest are to be announced next week. The alumni have paid for the grading of the athletic field which is now the best regular college field in Georgia. It ought to be called Alumni Field of Atlanta University. Some of the A. U. Men's club are now talking about a $5,000 statium for the field. The A U Men's club is making-large plans for the annual jollification on the night of Thanksgiving through the committee. Drs. Porter, Palmer, and Prof. Towns. Atlanta University is feeling mighty good over its football team. There is every indication that A. U. really has come back in athletics. The University is so enthusiastic that one, would think it had awakened from a Rip-Van-Winkle nap. When the team meets Morris Brown on Thanksgiving day, there will be given the first real opportunity for the city folks to see the team in action because the other hard games have been played out of town. Anybody who sees that Thanksgiving game may decide for himself whether or not A. U. has come back. SHORTAGE OF COTTON Should be Kept of the Ground and Protected from Moisture to Prevent Damage. It is very important, according to the specialists of the department, that all cotton that is not marketed when ginned should be stored and placed in a position where it will be protected from injury by moisture. Where cotton is exposed to rain it is subject to serious injury; and when sheltered but left in contact with the wet ground it is likely to become seriously damaged. It is frequently the case that people do not realize the uamount of damage that is done. In many instances cotton appears from the outside of the bale to be in fairly good condition, when it is really badly injured inside, due to the fact that moisture has been allowed to penetrate the bale, thus causing mildew. It is not unusual, according to the department's data, for cotton to suffer a loss of from $3 to $5 per hale as a result of unnecessary exposure. At all times it should be kept off the ground and properly sheltered. Where it is impossible to place it in a warehouse it should be protected by a dry shed or it may be placed on poles or timbers which will keep it several inches from the ground, and covered with tarpaulins. Protected in this way it can be kept for six months or even a year with a very little damage. In some sections the farmers and business men have organized companies for the purpose of constructing warehouse in order to protect the cotton. This, the investigators believe, is a move in the right direction, and every community should take this precaution where the warehouses now available are not ample for the protection of the cotton crop. They point out, however, that many of these communities are making a serious mistake in constructing cheap warehouses. It has been shown (Bulletin 216, Cotton Warehouse: Storage Facilities now Available in the South) that there is an annual loss of several million dollars in the cost of insurance. This loss is brought about primarily by the construction of cheap warehouses. The rate of insurance on these cheap structures range from 2 per cent, to four per cent per annum, while it is possible to insure cotton in the standard warehouse, with proper equipment, at the rate of one-fourth of one per cent per annum. The cheap structures last a comparatively few years and cost almost as much as the standard warehouse. The saving in instances will pay for the difference in cost of the warehouse in a very short time. While it is better to construct inexpensive warehouses than it is to allow the cotton to be damaged, it is much better and even cheaper, in the long run, to construct standard warehouses. THOUGHTS AND SAYINGS OF SUNDAY SCHOOL CONGRESS Among the last publications out is a book known as "Thoughts and Saying of the "Sunday School Congress." This book comes out showing all the papers which were read on the various Sunday school topics at the recent session of the Sunday school Congress which was held in Birmingham, Ala. It was the tenth annual session and is reported to have been one of the largest in the history of the congress movement. The book shows that the Sunday school pedagogy idea has been brought down to modern times. The subjects treated come from the brain of active Sunday school workers who are themselves building excellent Sunday schools in their respective communities. In the recent session of the congress the Front Line Sunday school idea was very prominent and the secretary of the congress, Rev. Henry A. Boyd, made a number of telling addresses and toured the larger portion of the United States delivering addresses to large schools. This book is published by the National Baptist Publishing Board, located at Nashville, Tenn. Each year after the congress adjourns these papers are put together in book form, that they might be handed down from one generation to another. While every piece contained in the book is not a literary masterpiece, is it a veritable gem, looked at from a consecrated effort point of view. 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 one other day about a mutual acquaintance who had died, a man he had never liked. "And his wife is 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." SUNDAY SCHOOL. Text of the Lesson, Jonah ill, 1-10. Memory' Verse, 10-Golden Text, Matt, xxvill, 19, 20-Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. Any one who questions the truth or the reality of this story of Jonah casts discredit 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. xl, 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 xl, 47-50). Jesus Christ said, "I am The Truth," and God is called "the God of Truth" (John xlv, 6; Isa. kv, 16). Therefore let our hearts cry, "Let God be true, but every man a llar;" "For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth" (Rom. ill, 4; II Cor. xlil, 8). 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, 10; I Pet. iii, 9). In this lesson we see a great city of at least 600,000 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. 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 xvll, 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 Tarshish begun 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. Look at the wireless and rapid transit as seen in the story of Daniel and Gabriel (Dan. ix, 30, 20, 1). As to the present day attitude of those who profess to be the Lord's people toward the command of our Golden Text and of Mark xvi, 15; Luke xxiv, 47; John xx, 21, 23; Acts 1, S. could there be a more vivid picture than that of Jonah on this ship before the captain woke him up? 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). If we had anointed ears we might hear the heathens say, "Arise and tell us of thy God and of His great salvation." And, we would surely hear God saying, "Whom shall I send and who will go for us?" (Isa. vi. 8.) 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 repented (chapter ill). 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. xxv, 9; xxvll, 6; xxxy, 10; lli, 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." Oh, 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. Cross examination by lawyers is much less severe today than it used to be. Sergeant Ballantine once cross examined the defendant in a civil action in England so fiercely that after a quarter of an hour of the ordeal she fell down flat in the witness box and could not be further questioned. Chief Justice Erie, summing up, described Ballantine's cross examination as "an exhibition of brute force which I have never seen before in a court of justice and hope never to see again." 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 Paria. The Place de la Concorde in Paris is one of the most beautiful places of its kind in the world. It was not until 1763 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 1792 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 XVII was executed on Jan. 21, 1793, and in the following October the unfortunate Marie Antoinette shared a like fate. The Crab In the Oyster. "The little crab found in the oyster," said a dealer, "is not, as supposed by two birds of the oyster eaters, the young of the blue crab, but is a distinct species. It is a messmate of and caterer to the wants of the oyster, being, therefore, a benefit instead of a detriment to the latter. In return for the oyster's kimness in protecting it against its enemies the little crab catches and crushes food which in its entire state could not be taken by the oyster. A singular thing in connection with them is that all found inside of the oyster are females. The male of the same variety has a hard shell." -Exchange. "Say, waiter," said the traveling man to the hotel waiter, "what kind of chicken do you call this?" "That's a Plymouth Rock, I believe," replied the waiter. "I'm glad it has some claim to historical mention," said the man. "I thought it was just an ordinary cobble stone."--Pittsburgh Press. The Gordian Knot When one of Uncle Sam's sailors, a man named Gordon, formerly serving on one of the vessels in a West Indian squadron, was taken to the Naval hospital in Washington he described with grewsome vividness to his companions there his adventure with a shark off one of the islands in the West Indies. "I had jest fell over the bulwarks," said the able seaman, "when along comes a big shark an' grabs me by the leg." "What did ye do then, matey?" asked one of the patients. "I never disputes none with sharks," said the sailor. "I let him have the leg." A Polished Villain. "He is very popular with his wife of late." "And him such a flirt. How does he do it?" "She called him up the other day and said, 'Hello, darling,' and he recognized her voice and replied: 'You have evidently made a mistake. I am not your darling. I have the dearest, sweetest, most beautiful wife in the world, and she is the only woman I permit to call me darling.'"—Houston Post A Culinary Tragedy. "What's the matter, dear?" asked Mr. Justwed as he came into the house and found his wife crying as if her heart would break. "I am so discouraged," she sobbed. "What has bothered my little wife?" "I worked all the afternoon making custards, because I knew you were so fond of them, and—and"—Here she began weeping hysterically again. "And what, darling?" "And they turned out to be sponge cakes." A young man was lately leaving his aunt's house after a visit when, finding it was beginning to rain, he caught up an umbrella that was snugly placed in a corner and was proceeding to open it when the old lady, who for the first time observed his movements, sprang toward him, exclaiming: "No, no; that you never shall! I've had that umbrella twenty-three years, and it has never been wet yet, and I am sure it shouldn't be wetted now!"—London Press. Diving Work Atlantic and Pacific Coast THE DIVING CONSTRUCTION Co.

The Georgia conference will convene next week at Monumental church with Bishop Clipper pre-lding. A large attendance is requested to be out during the balance of Rev.

SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH On last Sunday morning the pastor preached a very practical sermon, the message was soul stirring and full of facts. The attendance was very good. The Sunday school met at its usual hour and had a splendid service. The young folks in the school are getting along fine and would like some of the older folks to come out and help them in their work. The pastor also served communion on last Sunday to a very large congregation. The B. Y.

SUNDAY SCHOOL COMMENTARY Once more the National Baptist Publishing Board comes forward and is in a class by itself as to Sunday school helps. We have just received from them a copy of the National Baptist Sunday school Lesson Commentary for 1916. It is by far the superior of any of its predecessors and from present indications, it will have a tremendous circulation. The publication is edited by R. H. Boyd, D. D., secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board, and W. S. Ellington, A. R., D. D., the editorial secretary. It can be truly said of the publication that it is the only Sunday school lesson commentary published by any denomination in the race, and it claims a further distinction; it is the only Baptist Sunday school lesson commentary published in the United States In putting out this commentary Dr. R. H. Boyd, the business genius of his denomination, has shown that he is equal to those of other races following the same kind of work. The mechanical work as well as the literary work on the Sunday school commentary, shows what the race can do, whether it be in religion, in politics, in business, in education or in any particular line. The National Baptist Publishing Board located at Nashville, Tenn., has made a splendid record and deserves the entire support of every denomination for the work which has been done. MONUMENTAL A. M. E. CHURCH A great time was pulled off at Monumental last Sunday all day, from the early sunrise, prayer meeting until 10 at night. The Sunday school was, at its best. The pastor's class is still in the lend. The increase noted was 40. At 11 a. m. Rev Bembry preached a doctrinal sermon. At this service two young men joined the fold. The religious fever ran high. At 7 p. m. the A. C. B League held a very interesting meeting with Mrs Sherman presiding. A solo was sung by Miss Rosa L. Walker. The duett by Miss Florine Bembry and Mrs. L. V. Drayton was all that could be expected and was much enjoyed by all who listened to their sweet voices. The selection rendered by little Miss Teresa Leeks was listened to with much admiration. The topic was discussed by Bro. A W Bailey and others. At 8 p. m. the pastor preached a wonderful sermon from the "Parable of the Virgins. The service was graced by the presence of Dr. J. A. Hadley of the South Atlantic Conference and Rev Wm. Saxons of the G and S Mission The largest number in years was out to the class room on Tuesday night. The Mock Conference closed Friday night, 19 was financially successful. On next Wednesday morning at 10 a.m. the Georgia Conference will convene at old Monumental and delegates will be elected for the general conference which meets at Philadelphia May 1916. From the present outlook Rev. N. Bembry, D. D, pastor will make the run successfully and high on the ticket BUTLER PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH There were two interesting sermons on last Sunday by the pastor, Rev. S. T. Redd. The theme at the morning hour was, taken from Job 29:2, "Oh that I were as in months past, as in the days when God preserved me" At the evening hour the theme was from Is, 64:6, "And we all do fade as a leaf." The Christian Endeavor was led by Dr. H. M. Collier The topic was full of practical helps The programme was very much enjoyed, every minute was full of something good. The Sunday school scholars are urged to be present Sunday to the roll call. Order of services: Preaching 11:30 a.m., Sunday school 3 p.m., Christian Endeavor 7 p.m., preaching 8:00 p.m, mid-week service every Wednesday at 8 p.m. Strangers are cordially invited to worship with us. A CORRESPONDENCE SCHOOL DETCETIVE His name is Philo Gubb. He took ten lessons from the Rising Sun Correspondence School in the art of detecting.

Text of the Lesson, Amos v, 1-15, Memory Verses, 14, 15—Golden Text, Jer. xxiii, 28—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. W. L. BLUNT WHOLESALE AND RETAIL Fruit and Commission Merchant 303 ST. JULIAN WEST AND 23 JEFFERSON ST The message of Jonah was to gentiles, suggestive of foreign 'missions; that of Amos was to Israel, and therefore a home mission lesson reminding us of the need of the church today to be awakened to see her privileges and opportunities and responsibilities. The sins of Israel and her needs were not different from those of believers now. They bore the name of Jehovah, but were false to Him and worshiped idols. "They know not to do right, saith the Lord" (lii, 10). There was self and sin in all their worship. Therefore the Lord said, "Offer a sacrifice of, thanksgiving with leaven, * * * for this liketh you" (iv, 4, 5). Leaven is always a type of evil. Because of the sin in their professed worship of God He said, "I hate. I despise your feast days." I will not accept nor regard your offerings (v, 21-23). Although they outwardly kept new moons and Sabbath days their hearts were longing for them to be over that they might sell corn and wheat and grow rich by fraud, giving small measure and taking in as much money as possible (vill, 4, 5).

THE PRIDE OF EVERY WOMAN IS HER HAIR Consider the growing rich by fraud that abounds today even among those who hold high positions in the church, the oppression of the poor, the formality in worship, the false teaching that all are children of God, that Jesus Christ was only one of the sons of God, better than the others, but not God; that there is no hell, no lake of fire; that if people are not saved in this life they can be in the next and that a God of love will never allow any one to perish eternally; the Bible cannot be taken literally, it does not mean what it says—consider all these horrible things and then think how God in His mercy sent forth a Daniel Crawford from the heart of Africa and a William Sunday from the baseball field to show His people their sins and to uphold the honor of His word.

Agents Wanted Johnson Undertaking Establishment Combined with The Royall Undertaking Company (Incorporated) How does the Lord plead by Amos? He reminded them how He had brought them out of Egypt, led them forty years in the wilderness, given them the lands of others, raised up prophets and Nazarites from among their sons and revealed to them His purposes by His prophets (ll, 10, 11; il, 7; 1x, 7), therefore He would have them seek Him and live, assuring them of an abundant pardon if only they would turn to Him with the whole heart (v, 4, 6, 14; Isa. 1v, 6, 7). He also pointed them onward, as He always did and still does, to the future glory, for in spite of all the sin of Israel it is the purpose of God to restore Israel and bless all nations through them. He will raise up the tabernacle of David (ix, 11), and James said at the great council at Jerusalem that would be after He had gathered the church, or, as he put it, taken out of the Gentiles a people for His name. Then he said that all the Gentiles would after that be gathered (Acts xv, 13-1S). Note how in the very last words of Amos' prophecy the Lord said that He would bring again the captivity of Israel, that they would build their waste cities and inhabit them; that He would plant them upon their land and that they would no more be pulled up out of it (ix, 13-15). Abraham was encouraged and sustained by the assurance of the city—Moses by the recompense of the reward. David by the kingdom. Paul by the glory to be revealed and our Lord Himself by the joy set before Him. I know of no way by which the church of today can be turned from its worldliness and indifference so successfully as by setting clearly before her the great love of God in Christ Jesus, the greatness of the salvation He has provided and the glory of the kingdom to which we are called.

Men are trying to remedy the evils that exist, to reform or uplift the race, to bring a kingdom of peace on earth by their own efforts, but "They know not the thoughts of the Lord, neither understand they His counsel" (Mic. iv, 12). They do not know that the babe of Babelhem was born to rule in Israel and that there can be no kingdom of peace on earth till He shall come again (Mic. v, 2-4). People are so filled with their own thoughts and ways, just as Israel was, that they will not be agreed with God, that therefore cannot walk with Him (Amos ill, 3). Because many preachers in pulpits and teachers in seminaries are turning away from God to the wisdom of men there is a famine of hearing the words of the Lord (Amos vill, 11). As in the last lesson, those who have knowledge of God are disobedient and asleep and must be awaked. As it is written in Eph. v. 14, "wake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light." "Be not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is" (Eph. v, 17, 19). "It is high time to awake out of sleep, for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand" (Rom. xiii, 11, 12). Pate's Drug Store We take coupons.

BUY THEM BY THE BOX MADAM ADA BELLE GRIFFIN THE MASTER Under auspice ..THE NEGRO BUSINE Admission - - --- ASK COUNCIL TO PROHIBIT APPEARANCE OR "BIRTH OF A NATION The following resolution opposing the appearance of the "Birth of a Nation," signed by a representative of the Business League, the Colored Y. M. C. A., the Evangelical Ministers' Union, the Urban League and the Baptist Ministers' union was sent to the city council. To the City Council, Savannah, Ga. Dear Sirs: We, the undersigned, in behalf of the Baptist Ministers' Union, the Evangelical Ministers' Union, the Negro Business League, Y. M. C. A. and the Urban League, are asking that you prevent the play known as "The Birth of a Nation", which we understand is booked for the late-fall, from coming here. This play has stirred considerable feeling between the races where ever it has appeared. It is known to be filled with racial prejudice. We feel that Savannah has been too peaceful a city in its life's time, and still remains, to have any such play mar this splendid relation which exists between the white and black people; a relation which the colored population is aware of and appreciates. We find that the entire state of Ohio has refused its admittance, while some of our large cities have allowed it. we hope that Savannah will put itself in the list of those cities or states which have prevented its being staged.

COMMONWEALTH CIRCULAR NUMBER TEN There is a Difference Yes-sir-re-bob! The difference between the COMMONWEALTH LOAN & REALTY Co. and other companies of the same kind is just this: In other companies your interest terminates at the end of each contract, but when you become a shareholder in the COMMONWEALTH, aside from having the borrowing privilege, you will be a part of the company that will personally attend to your real estate interest, whether it be for buying, selling, or renting; and at the end of each fiscal year divide with you the profits coming in from all sources during that year. Our plans and methods are very easily understood. If you knew them you would immediately become a shareholder. Call at our office and have the manager explain them to you.
