VOLUME XXXI ATLANTA MUTUAL FORCES COMBINED BOTH OFFICES OF THE COMPANY MOVED TO THE Wage Earners Building Managers James and Lindsay Remain In Charge-Company Doing Excellent Business Here During the week the two local others of the Atlanta Mutual Insurance Association were moved to the Wage Earners Bank building, Alice and West Broad streets. Ever since the Atlanta Mutual took over the business of the Union Mutual, about a year ago, the company has maintained two separate offices here, one in the building at West Broad and Gwinnett lane and the other in the Williams building. The maintenance of two offices here was found both inconvenient and inexpedient, thus the removal of the offices to the Wage Earners Bank building where the combined forces of the company have taken four rooms on the second floor of the building. The management of the company's affairs, however, will remain much the same as before the consolidation, as L. L. James will have charge of his agents and J. C. Lindsay will retain supervision over his force. Both managers have separate adjoining offices, but the agents and clerical forces will occupy the same quarters, the work of the latter being equally divided. By this arrangement the Atlanta Mutual office will be one of the busiest Negro business places in the city as the combined forces of the two offices probably give Managers James and Lindsay the largest Negro insurance force in the city and also the largest debit. The new quarters of the company have been very nicely furnished and are among the neatest and most adequate in the city. BOYS OF JUVENILE FARM HAD A BIG TIME One of the Best Dinners Ever Served Them Enjoyed Christmas Christmas will be a day long remembered by the eighty or more boys at the Juvenile Farm. On this day, and in fact for several days, they had the best times of their lives at the farm. Through the efforts of Supt. S. P. Braz oil a big Christmas dinner was served them. The table was attractively laid and the boys had their fill of fresh pork, rice, potatoes oranges, apples, nuts, raisins, etc. It was a great sight to note the enjoyment and satisfaction in the fates of the boys. After dinner they were given a heart to heart talk by Mr. Brazell, who gave them excellent advice as to how to improve themselves and thus grow into useful men. Supt. Brazell has eyed much interest in the boys, and since he has been in charge great improvements have been made. It is his desire to see even greater improvements made. His interest in the boys ought to be known by all of our people and we should extend him unstinted appreciation. Mrs. Rachael Moore, who is matron at the farm, is also doing her part in the work of these boys. The Urban League is to be credited for the inauguration of the movement at the Juvenile Farm. CONGREGATIONAL FREE KINDER GARTEN CHRISTMAS TREE On Thursday afternoon of last week many of the parents and a few friends gathered at the annex of the First Congregational Church to witness the Christmas exercises by the kindergarten. An attractive tree contained a present for each kindergartenfener, and for their mothers and fathers, and a few friends.-They joined heartily in the singing and drills. Short talks were made by Rev. W. L. Cash, Rev. N. M. Clarke and a representative of the Congregational Brotherhood. Mrs. Ethel Jackson, president of the Mothers' auxiliary of the kindergarten, presented a purse for the benefit of the work. About thirty-eight little ones are enrolled in the kindergarten and they have made remarkable progress under the tutalge or Miss Lucille B. Spencer and Miss Rosa Mae Williams. The kindergarten will re-open on Monday. Commonwealth Loan and Realty Co. 599 West Broad street, shares $5 each. A good Investment for your Christmas Club money.

Chisholm I am a graduate of Tuskegee Institute, and for the past ten years have been officially identified with the work of this institution. It does not become me, therefore, to attempt to estimate the service of my lamented chief, to our race and to the nation. My purpose here is merely to narrate some of my own personal reminiscences of our dead hero. I first heard of my late chieftain in 1896 when I was almost ready to graduate from the grammar school at my home, Savaumah, Ga. While trying to decide, the question as to what I would do after graduating, I read the famous Atlanta speech of Dr. Washington which had attracted the eyes of the country toward him. One of the passages of that speech was this: "No race will ever get up on its feet until it learns that there’s as much dignity in tilling the soil as in writing a poem." About this time I also came across the quotation of his printed in an almanack which ran: "A fool in Africa is no better off than a fool in America." This utterance doubtless grew out of the question of the expatriation of the Negro to Africa, which was being agitated at the time as a solution of the Negro problem. Both of these thoughts made a profound impression upon my youthful mind. I coupled them together and gleaned from them that this two-fold idea was: (1) That training for farm work was just as important and necessary as book education; and (2) that no matter whether the Negro was sent to Africa or remained in America he had to be educated. These common sense ideas of his had much to do with my going to Tuskegee Institute to pursue further training for my life’s work. During my student days at Tuskegee, I had seen Mr. Washington on many a real cold, bitter morning, come down to the students dining room with no top shirt on, his overcoat snugly buttoned up, go from table to table inquiring into the comfort of the students. He would ask: "Are you getting enough to eat? If not come to the office and report it. The food here is simple but we mean to have it well cooked and we want you to have a plenty of what we have." At night at chapel, when the students marched out, he would be standing at a point where the students would have to pass him. His keen, piercing eyes were sure to detect any grease-spots that were on the students' clothes or any buttons that by chance were conspicuous by their absence from the students' clothing. Any offender in this respect was zero to be pulled out of line and spoken to by Mr. Washington and cautioned against letting this thing happen a second time in which case the student These glimpses show another side of the character of this great man. Altho he was principal of the school and had a number of assistants whose duty it was to look after these apparently small matters, he was absolutely unselfish and constantly exhibited the deepest interest in the bodily and personal comfort and happiness of his students. I question whether there are many heads of big schools in America who exercise a similar degree of interest in the personal side of their students. One of the iron clad rules of Tuskegee Institute is that no student must ever be released from his trade contract. After I had served two years of my apprenticeship at my printers' trade I desired to be released from my third year in order to enter the day school a year earlier than my contract would have permitted. When I discussed the matter with Mr. Washington he asked me why it was that I wished to be released from my contract. I said to him frankly that my ambition was to be a lawyer, that I had come to Tuskegee to spend only four years and that after graduating from Tuskegee was going to attend Howard University for the purpose of studying law. Dr. Washington did not take so well to this idea. He not only refused to authorize my being released from my contract but earnestly advised me against studying law and urged me to stick to my printers' trade and some day conduct a successful print shop in the south. He had me understand, however, that he was not opposed to the study of law by Negroes. Rather, he raised the question whether I would render the race in its present condition the greatest service as a lawyer; whether legal advice was the greatest need of an ignorant, backward, struggling people. At the time I thought he was wrong and I was right. From experience and careful study into the real needs and conditions of the masses of our people. I have learned that he was right and I was wrong. Mr. Washington was a most patient patient. I remember one night he had a bad cold and a sick headache. Mrs. Washington sent for me and invited me to stay all night with him so as to give him every two hours the medicine the doctors had prescribed. I had to wake him from his slumber every two hours to give him his medicine, but not a single time did he seem to exhibit any impatience or disgust with me because of the frequency of my visits. Thruoht my senior year when any northern visitors were expected at Tuskegee. Mr. Washington would invariably send for me and instruct me to practice the students with the school yells and Chautauqua salutes. I always felt that I must have satisfied him in this matter of the school yells, otherwise he would not have repeatedly asked me to lead the students in giving them. THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE egrams, answered his phone calls, ordered his carriages, bought his newspapers, and even carried his light fall overcoat. At first, he exhibited a good deal of anxiety at my seeming over-politeness, but finally gave in, as I firmly insisted that he must be spared the slightest inconvenience. After his speech before the National Negro Baptist convention in Chicago, together with a half dozen policemen, I found a lane for him to pass thru to his waiting carriage. We had to do this in order to protect him from the hundreds of his friends and admirers who surged around him to shake his hand. His strength was not equal to the physical effort involved. His death shortly after he delivered this speech in Chicago suggests that at the time of its delivery he seemed to realize that he was closing up his life's work and was making his last speech before the great national body of Negro Baptists. This doubtless counted for the very earnest, whole-souled and vigorous manner in which he spoke on that occasion. I shook his hand and bade him good. ```markdown ``` Beautiful Bust and Shoulders are possible if you will wear a scientifically constructed Bien Jolie Brassiere.

DO YOUR OWN SHOPPING WHOLESALE Lord & Taylor NEW YORK During the past ten years, it has been my privilege to arrange for Mr. Washington many meetings in the porth where he would speak in the interest of the school. He would frequently send me a telegram to meet him at the Parker House in Boston or at the Baltimore Hotel in New York City, then he would give me instructions in regard to the arranging of meetings in Boston or New York or Brooklyn or some other point. Time and again on these trips in the north he would be carrying someparcel or traveling bags. When I would volunteer to carry these things for him, he would always decline my invitation. He seemed never to want other people to serve him; rather he wanted to save others any seeming inconvenience. I recall but one exception to this general rule of his. This was during what proved to be his last visit to Chicago, in September. The officers of Tuskegee realized that he was in a weakened physical condition, and so the word was given to do everything to save him as long as possible.

Harris preached from 1st Peter 4:15 "And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and sinner appear?" Sunday school was well attended. The topic at the Christian Endeavor was "How to keep the upgrade" and was a practical one and brought out the test of love and life. At the evening hour our pastor, in a very striking way, pictured the patience and endurance of the advent of our Saviour. The text was taken from Luke 2:7 "But the e was no room for them in the ill." Our week of prayer will begin Sunday Jan 2 continuing until Jan 9th. Holy communion will conclude the prayer week. Memorial services will be held on tomorrow of all the deceased members for 1915. You are earnestly urged to be present during our week of prayer, special evangelistic services.

The pastor preached at 5 p.m. from the subject "Christ the bruise healer". Sunday will be "go to church" Sunday and all the families of the church are invited and urged to worship with us at 11 a.m. Special sermon at 5 p.m. communion follows. Visitors welcome. BETH EDEN BAPTIST CHURCH Beth Luen, Church, Rev N M. Clarke pastor. Services were well attended Sunday. At the morning service Rev. Clarke preached from the 115 Psalm; at night he preached by request "Esaping the storm" Acts 27:44. Both sermons were delivered with force and the it's the second time the latter sermon has been heard, and the first time was considered the best, yet this was said to excel. At this service every one was given a valuable present as promised. Tomorrow there will be no regular night service. The roll call of members will begin in the afternoon at four o'clock when each member will respond by paying a penny for every year the church has Lost. Lost. LOST!

The superintendent of the Sunday school was delighted with the grand success and hopes for a still greater one ere Christmas comes again. ST. PAUL C. M. E. CHURCH The Christmas tree on Tuesday night at St. Paul C. M. E. Church was the greatest success as such in its history, when it comes to decoration as done by Dr. W. H. Johnson, the chiropodist and steward of St. Paul. The music conducted by Mrs. Daisy Blair, assisted by Mrs. O. L. Wogdruff and Miss Malissa Brown was good. The tokens were many and the people received them in the friendly spirit given. The junior steward board of which Mr. N. Duckett is chairman presented the pastor. Rev. J. A. Martin, a handsome cane thru its chairman. Besides individual gifts the Sunday school presented Miss Georgie Andrews a nice umbrella in honor of her services as organist for the Sunday school. The audience was large and the people went away happy. Special services all day Sunday and all members and friends are invited to be present. SUNDAY SCHOOL. Lesson II.—First Quarter, For Jan. 9, 1916. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson, Acts ii, 1-13—Memory Verses, 3, 4—Golden Text, I Cor. iii, 16—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. The event of this lesson, the coming of the Holy Spirit, was on the day of Pentecost, or the fiftieth day after the resurrection of Christ. It was foreshadowed, as was all else, in the law. In Lev. xxlii there is a record of the feasts of the Lord (verse 4, 44) in which anointed eyes may see His death and resurrection, the coming of the Spirit and His return in glory. When He was here in the days of His flesh these feasts had become merely feasts of the Jews with the Lord left out, like much of the worship of today which is only outward form without reality. The passover typified the death of Christ, our passover. The sheaf of first fruits on the morrow after the Sabbath clearly indicates His resurrection, Christ the first fruits. The other first fruits fifty days after the former suggests the lesson of today, the anointing of believers, the beginning of the church story, and the feast of tabernacles points to His coming again in glory and the conversion of all Israel. There is great profit in a special study of all these. See how sin in believers is typified by the leaven in the second first fruits (verse 17). Returning to our lesson, from which we wandered to Lev. xxiiii because of the infidel day, note the expression "with one accord" which, if I have counted correctly, is used in Acts just eleven times, seven times in a good connection, as in chapters i, 14; ii, 1, 46, and four times of the enemies of the Lord, as in vii, 57. If but a few believers could be heartily of one accord in the Lord's service great things might be accomplished, as when the disciples continued in prayer and supplication, about 120 men and women (i, 14, 15). When the time was fully come the promised comforter, the Holy Spirit, came upon them and filled them all (verse 4; i. 8; Luke xxiv, 49). There was a sound as of a rushing, mighty wind, and cloven tongues like as of fire sat upon each of them (verses 2, 3), both the wind and the fire being symbols of the Holy Spirit (Matt. iii, 11; John iii, 8; Izek. xxxvii, 9, 10). The Spirit on this occasion enabled them to speak in the different languages of the people named in verses 9-11, but note carefully that they all understood what the disciples said, and they all talked of the wonderful works of God. Contrast this with the so called tongues movement of our day, much of which consists of strange sounds which no one on earth can understand. See also what the Spirit says by Paul concerning the necessity of speaking words easy to be understood and that he would rather speak five words that could be understood than ten thousand that no one could understand (I Cor. xiv, 0, 19). Note that the only epistle that makes mention of tongues is one in which those to whom the epistle was written were spoken of as babes and carmal (I Cor. iii, 14). See also how love is exalted above all else, the love that is kind and thinketh no evil (I Cor. xiii), and contrast such love as is there described with the seeming lack of love which says that, if sick, we have no faith, and if we do not speak in tongues we are not Spirit filled. It does seem to me that tongues which do not glorify God by helping some one to know Him better cannot be of God, however well intentioned and zealous the people may be. Our Lord said that the Holy Spirit, whom He would send, would enable them to bear witness unto Him (i. S), and the one only thing for which believers are on earth is to bear witness to the fact that Jesus Christ is alive and that He is living His life in us, that those who know us may want to know Him because they know us and that we may help to make Him and the glorious story of His great salvation known to the ends of the earth. We said in last lesson that the coming of the Spirit was in no sense the coming again of "this same Jesus," for He said that the Spirit would be "another comforter" (John xiv, 16), and "another" cannot mean "the same." He said that the Spirit would abide with us, dwell in us, teach us all things, bring His words to our remembrance, testify of Him, guide us into all truth, show us things to come and glorify Christ (John xiv, 16, 26; xv, 26; xvi, 13, 14). These things the Spirit loves to do, as well as to convince of sin and of righteousness and of judgment (John xvi, 8). Whatever is not along the lines of the work which the Spirit came to do must be the work of some other spirit. These Spirit filled people were accused of being drunken, and there is somewhat of an analogy, or a contrast, if you prefer, between a drunken person and a Spirit filled 'person'. The man filled with wine is indifferent to what others think and acts as if he owned the whole thing; the man filled with the Spirit knows that all things are his and is not moved by what others think or say of him. See Eph. v. 18- According to chapter 1. 14. Mary, the mother of Jesus, was one of those Spirit filled people, and that is the last time we read of her.
