Savannah Tribune

The FINE CELEBRATION HELD SATURDAY COMMEMORATING THE ISSUANCE OF THE EMANCIPATION PROCLAMATION Rev. Goodall Speaks Sfreet Parade Preceed Exercise Which Were Held at the Second Baptist, Church The celebration held here last Saturday commemorating the fifty-third anniversary of the issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation by Abraham Lincoln was witnessed by a large concourse of people. The street parade while not as large as that of some previous years, was good. There were three companies of the uniform rank Knights of Pythias in line and a similar number from the Knights of Damon. The former were in charge of Capt. M. W. Bryan and the latter under Major Jerry M. Suares. The K. of P, and Middleton's brass bands furnished music for the parade. Aside from these organizations the civic feature was made up by the Imperial Aid and Social Club, who turned out about a hundred strong. Following these came the carriages conveying the speaker of the day and the members of the emancipation association. The parade terminated at the Second Baptist church where the exercises were held. The principal feature of the celebration at the church was the address by the Rev. T. Jefferson Goodlist Church. Major W. H. Burgess was master of ceremonies. An overwhelmingly large crowd was at the church and the address of Rev. Goodall was vorceferously deceived The speaker covered in a most pleasing manner the progress the Negro has made and the address was one of the most scholarly heard here for some time. It was in part as follows: Mr. President, fellow citizens, ladies and gentlemen. It is indeed a pleasure for me to stand before you to-day, to deliver an address on this the 33rd anniversary of our freedom. No race on record has accomplished more in the same length of time than the American Negro, and it is doubtful if any race has accomplished as much in the same period of time as the Negro, under similar circumstances. We have every reason to feel proud, and if we are to judge the future by the past, we have a sufficient guarantee of our ability to cope with any emergency that may arise. Why should the Negro feel any more ashamed of his once being a slave than other races? Practically every race has undergone some form of slavery. THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN The most advanced people to-day can trace their ancestry back to a state of barbarism and serfdom. "Enslave a man and you destroy his ambition, his enterprise, his capability. In the constitution of human nature the desire of bettering one's condition is the main spring of effort. The first touch of slavery snaps this spring." Horace Mann. Slavery: The right of property of one man in another man, in his family. In his posterity, and in the product of his labor. There is no injustice more revolting than slavery, and yet there is no fact so wide-spread in history. In antiquity the system of labor was everywhere slavery. It was found in Rome, in Greece, in Egypt, in Austria, in Gaul, among the Germans, and it is said even among the Sythians. It was recruited by war, by voluntary VOLUME XXXI Rev. T. Jefferson Goodall IMPORTANT AND INTERESTING HAPPENINGS AT THE NATION'S CAPITAL Howard University Night at the Metropolitan A. M. E. Church was A Brilliant Affair. Washington, D. C. Jan. 3—Amid the hurrush of the college spirit the enthusiastic yell, rythmic hand-clap and improvised songs, "Howard Night" was ushered in last Tuesday evening at Metropolitan A. M. E. Church in felicitious style. The occasion is an annual feast, fostered by the progressive Bethel Literary and Historical Association and is long looked for by Howard University and the populace in general, mutually proud that they are such firm friends and factors in uplift of the race. On "Howard University Night" the "Town and Crown" come together for a season of riotous fun, coupled with wisdom that makes for wholesome recreation and genuine profit for all concerned—the city below and the school that setteth on a hill. Miss Marie A. D. Madro president of the Bethel Literary, presided, and saw to it that the faculty and the student body, as well as their host of friends from every section of the land, were made welcome, and gave the frenzied multitudes from Howard Hill the freedom of the house, to make the welkin ring and give vent to their ebullitions of youthful joy in any orderly manner that might appeal to their inventive minds. Dr. Stephen Morrell Newman, president of Howard University, in a deliverance that sparkled with humor, rich and rare—and which set a warm pace for the "feast of reason and flow of soul"—introduced as the speaker of the evening Prof. Kelly Miller, dean of the college of arts and sciences, sometimes facetiously styled "the mouthpiece of Howard University." Dean Miller was at his best and spoke with unusual force, brilliance and clearness on "Howard University Facing the Future." Never before has the fundamental idea of the higher education had a presentation that was so illuminating or more convincing: "The chief aim of Howard University is to produce an educated efficient leadership for the Negro race," said Prof Miller, after pointing out the necessity for the trained man, who knows not only the rule but the reason—not only the fact, but the philosophy behind it—in matters that govern the conduct of life. "The function of the Negro college is to prepare choice youth of this race to stand in the high places of intellectual, moral and spiritual authority among their less fortunate fellows. The blind cannot lead the blind, less they both fall in the ditch." For want of vision the people perish, as well as for want of provision." Colored Men in Treasury Promoted To the list of colored men promoted by Secretary W. G. McAdoo in the Treasury Department within the past months must be added Mr. Thomas F. Randall, and Mr. Abner McMurtry. Recent appointments of young colored women in the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, a division of the treasury department, include Miss Phoebe Purce, of Louisville, Ky., Mrs. Jeannette Taylor Nickens, Mrs. Mabel Pinn Phillips, Miss Sadie Gaskins, and Miss Mabel Thomas, of the District of Columbia, and Miss Vivian Lucile Thompson, of Indiana. Napier to Head Business League As the situation looks now, Former Register of the Treasury J. C. Napier, of Nashville, Tenn., will be the next president of the National Negro Business League, succeeding the late Dr. Booker T. Washington. Cupid Busy During Holidays Prominent among the victims of cherub's daimy darts have been Mr. Richard Ware, the founder of the Ware Department store, who led to the altar Miss Elmira Belle Green, who has been his chief assistant in business for one time; Dr. William J. Howard, Jr., who surprised his closest friends by placing a band of gold upon the hand of Miss Dorothy Warning, a Balmore belle; Mr. Harry Sayles, of the post office department, who won as his bride Miss M. Cleintina Jerugilan, daughter of Rev and Mrs. W. H. Jernigan, and who has been an efficient chief of a division in the offices of the National Benefit Association; Mr. Herbert Bruce, who took to vows with Miss Cordella Arnett, well-known in the younger social set; and, last but by no means the least.

SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, Crusade Launched Against Lynching Crusade Launched Against Lynching UNIVERSITY COMMISSION ON SOUTHERN RACE QUESTION Resolutions Sent out Urging Educated to Use Influence Against Lynching Durham, N. C., Jan. 5—A vigorous crusade against lynching was proposed in a resolution adopted here today by the University Commission in Southern race questions, composed of representatives of twelve southern universities. Lynching was denounced because it not only "robs its victims of their constitutional rights and their lives," but also it "simultaneously lynches law and justice and civilization." The resolution, which, it was announced, was particularly addressed to the college men of the south. In part, reads as follows: "This letter is not written to convince you that lynching is a crime, for you know it already. Its object is to urge you to show others whenever opportunity presents itself that lynching does more than rob its victims of their constitutional rights and of their lives. It simultaneously lynches law, and justice and civilization and outrages all the finer human sentiments and feelings. The wrong that it does to their wretched victims is almost nothing compared to the injury it does to the lynchers themselves, to the community and to society at large. "One of the bad features of lynching is that it quickly becomes a habit, and like all bad habits deepen and widens rapidly. Negroes were first lynched for rape and murder, but the habit spread until now they are lynched for much less serious crimes, and sometimes for trivial offenses and even Negro women have been lynched." The commission is composed of Professor James H. Dillard, director of the Slater Negro Educational Fund; W. S. Sutton, University of Texas; James S. Farrar, University of Florida; K. C. Branson, University of North Carolina; James D. Hoskins, University of Tennessee; R. H. J. DeLoache, University of Georgia; J. J. Doster, University of Alabama; J. Y. Thomas, University of Arkansas; W. L. Keonon, University of Mississippi; W. O. Seroggs, University of Louisiana; W. M. Hunley, Virginia Military Institute, and Joshua Morse, University of South Carolina. EXCELLENT PAPER READ The South Atlantic Medical Association held its regular meeting Thursday night at the Y. M.

BRUNNER HERE Several Celebrated Female Speakers Will be Heard During Week.

The Popular Bolero Suit When the various European countries unconsciously exert their influence on styles by their entry into war, or their equally difficult stand of neutrality, the bolero was again introduced into the woman's wardrobe, it being the Spanish note. It is a model that has always been a great favorite. It is generally becoming and may be made © MCCALL Plain and Striped Taffeta at home with results as good as if fashioned by a tailor. Fine blue serge, soutached, or trimmed with a design in gold braid or galoon, is most often seen in the bolero models; often the upper portion of the pleated or gathered skirt is of taffeta in black or the same tone as the serge. Collars and cuffs are taffeta and taffeta covered buttons are also used with good effect. In both the suiting and the soft silks being fashioned into frocks and suits for southern wear and early spring, the popularity of stripes and checks is quite as marked as it was last season; the combination of black and white and the soft gray is also noticeable. The soft wool suitings in checks ranging from the very tiny patterns to the aggressive checker board designs are all good, relieved with a touch of vivid green, rose, or orange; black taftaeta and moire are also effective for trimming these suits and tailored frocks. The striped silks are usually combined with a plain satin or silk, in a tone that harmonizes with or is an effective contrast to the predominating color in the striped material. Sheer fabrics, crepe Georgettes, chiffon-cloths, silk voiles, and the various other transparent fabrics promise to be as good for sleeves, collars and other trimming purposes as they have been for the past few seasons. Net Blouses Practical Blouses of chiffon-cloth, chiffon, and similar materials, dainty and becoming to a degree, were never very durable. It was really heartbreaking when one had a practically becoming and rather expensive blouse, to have it begin to pull out and wear under the arms and at the elbows after only one or two wearings. This was partially done always when cotton net was introduced for lining these waists; this season we have the net blouse itself, often lined with net or chiffon-cloth. These waists are delightfully sheer and they have a wonderful wearing quality. Often the net blouse is trimmed with a linen clunk, or another equally pretty face in a rather heavy pattern. Then again collar and cuffs are of a plotteded Georgette in a delicate tone of rose, yellow, or pale pink. Novelty buttons in quaint effective colorings are sometimes used at the closing of collar, or down the front, forming unusually attractive trimming details. The soft colored blouse of crepe Georgette has by no means taken a back seat because af the popularity of the new net favorite; these are being brought out, if anything, in prettier and more charming color designs than ever before. Rose pink is a favorite shade; it combines so well with the dark blues, browns and other tailored suit colors. Hats and Parasols Small and medium size hats as al ways are the first outputs of our New York milliners, for the South and early spring. Many of the prettiest of them show a combination of straw and taffeta. One especially attractive medium sized hats displayed on the Avenue some time ago, was of tete de Negre satin; the brim turned up a trifle on the left side and frame was © MCCALL Serge Bolero Suit covered smoothly save for a cord effect around the outer edge of the brim and at the top of the crown. The only trimming was a severely straight upstanding wing made of the satin, edged with a cut ruching of maline in the same shade of brown as the hat. The effect of the hat was smart and tailored. Another pretty small hat was made half of straw braid and half of changeable taffeta, the taffeta being draped over one side of the crown, finishing in a high upstanding loop on the side. Imitation Goura in a soft shade of gray was effective trimming on another small hat. In parasols there are many novelties as always at the opening of a season. Some Japanese effects are seen, and some hand embroidered designs; a particularly pretty fancy parasol was of dark taffeta gattied and tasselled at the points. PULLMAN COMPANY INCREASES SALARIES Will Benefit 9,000 Out of 27,000 Employes Chicago, Dec. 27.—Salary increases aggregating $000,000 for the year 1916 will be a new year's gift of the Pullman Company to certain of its employees. Five hundred thousand dollars of it will go to conductors and portors and the remainder to various agents. They number 9,000 out of 27,000 employes. Workers in manufacturing and repair plants are not included. At the Chicago sessions of the Federal Commission on Industrial Relations it was testified that the wages of conductors on Pullman cars were very low and that porters were practically dependent upon tips. Later Frank P. Walsh, chairman of the committee, said that Robert T. Lincoln, chairman of the board of the company, promised that the directors would consider the matter of the pay of conductors and porters. The advance is said to be about 10 per cent. for conductors, and more than 10 per cent. for porters. At the commission hearing it was testified that conductors start at $65 a month, are raised to $75 two years later and the maximum is $100 a month. One porter said that he received $42.50 a month and often made $75 additional in tips. Other porters generally receive a smaller wage. SOCIAL HAPPENING A very interesting event of the week was a delightful new year party given by Miss Lottie Urie at her home 41st street, west, on New Year's night. Those present were Misses Mamie Cain, Ethel Massey, Gertrude Dealagle, Messrs. Charlie Simmons. A Brantly Low, Charlie Spencer, Prof. and Mrs. Moore of Thunderbolt, Mr. and Mrs. Jones of Macon.

Livingston's Pharmacy THE REXALL STORE 226 West Broughton St, Savannah, Ga. 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." An Ambidextrous Metaphor. An eloquent Irish candidate, speaking of a certain eminent statesman, said: "His smooth tongue is that of a serpent, which lures but to destroy and which holds out sugar plums in one hand, while in the other it holds an un sheathed dagger behind its back."—Current Opinion. 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. "He is very popular with his wife or 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.

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.

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. Some Kind of Rock. "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.

AMONG THE MASONS Stricken Out The institution of Masonry, from time immemorial, has had her enemies without, who were ignorant of the great design promulgated in her principles. The outward foes would, if it were in their power, blot Masonry from the records of time, and obliterate her grand mission from the thoughts of men. Then she has enemies and treacherous foes within the pale of her presidents, whose conduct would do the same if possible. But as this cannot be accomplished, it is utterly useless to think of the result. It is impossible to graduate Masonry from the hearts and affections of the true adherents of her principles. It would be just as easy to reach forth the pungi arm of man and shuck the stars from their stations, or brush the planets from their oblits, and tell them to move thru space and shine to light up the heavens with their farreaching brightness, the dome of night. The enemies of Masonry, from whatever quarter they may rally their forces, may as well attempt to destroy the glory manifested everywhere in God's handiwork, as to strike down its power, its symbolry, and its mighty truths. Our foes on every hand could as easy "bid day into day and night unto night," no more to declare the wisdom and goodness of the Great 1 Am, or display his power and knowledge. Let the forces unite, and as well might the glow-worm attempt to outshine the sun at its meridian. Strike out Masonry! Stop the sum from bestowing blessings to the world, and by pointing the finger bid its glory cease. It would be as easy to extinguish the ten thousand rays of the bright luminary of the heavens, as to stop the benign factors that Masonry scatters along the pathway of humanity. All of these impossibilities could be as easily accomplished as to successfully blot out the true ethics of Masonry from the heart of him who has bowed at her altar and partaken of her rich vlands. When the soul has once feasted on the great truths of Masonry, so sublimely illustrated in her lessons or symbolry, it cannot dispense with the power and glory therein.—Missouri Freemason. Begin every day with faith. Faith in God, faith in man, faith in woman, faith in your country, faith in the healing power of sunshine, fresh air, exercise, good thoughts, earnest endeavor, faith that it is more natural to be healthy than to be sick; faith that men would rather be good than evil, faith in the ultimate good of all things. It is better than a cup of coffee, a glass of champagne, a drink of whiskey to have faith. Begin the day with faith, and keep it up all day. Then renew your faith before you go to bed, and sleep the sleep of faith, trust, rest and health.—Masonic News Masonry has a universal language, for by its signs and symbols members of the craft are enabled to make themselves known the world over. The language of music is also universal, and music is always a part of Masonic ceremony.—Masonic Trestleboard. Saints in Masonry There are no saints in Masonry—just men, with virtues and foibles of men. Some have achieved fame in art, science, religion, politics, war and philosophy, but Masonry has conferred no distinctive rank on them for service outside of the order, and their virtues are commemorated in the hearts of their loving brethren.—Texas Preemason. Every part of the Masonic ceremony has a meaning, and the ability to interpret the meaning constitutes the Masonic education.—Voice Review. Masonry Outside the Ledges Rev. J. Stewart Smith, D. D. There are Masons and Masons. There is the Mason who is perfect in his work of the order, always present at the meetings of all the bodies, decorated with charms and pins and rings, the admiration of himself and the envy of the younger brethren. But examine him closely. What is he outside the lodgeroof? If he is selfish in his aims, hard with his tenants or employees, neglectful of his family, unscrupulous in his business methods, smutty or profane in conversation, deaf to the appeals of the moody; if he is any or all of these, that man is no true Mason. He is rather a hindrance to the order. The strongest argument against Masonry is the Mason himself. The world knows as well as we do, what our Order inculcates, and it also knows far better when it sees the divergence between practice and precepts it despises you and the Order. The unfaithful Mason is injuring the whole fraternity. As an individual he may not care what the world thinks of him, but he has sworn to protect the good name of his brethren, and when he brings his own good name in disrepute he is inflicting a most serious injury on every other Mason in the community. As a secret organization, the only knowledge that the world can have of our order is the effect that it has on men who belong to it. If it tends to make them good men and true, then it will judge well of the institution; if it does not do this the opinion that will be formed must be evil. The only real use Masonry is in the world is in its effect on men outside of the lodgeroom. Its teachings and ritual, beautiful as they are, are only means, not ends. We are brought to light in order that we may let our light so shine before men that they THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE never-be without honor Why is it that a chicken will walk over ground meat, corn, oats, tender grass and table scraps in order to fly over two fences, dodge six automobiles and walk half a block to scratch a neighbor's lawn?—Macon News. Little Eva brought a comb and brush to her mother and said, "Mamma, please make a pathway in my hair." Making It Last 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, sprawled 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 shan't be wetted, now!"—London Press. --- Beautiful Bust and Shoulders are possible if you will wear a scientifically constructed Bien Jolie Brassiere.

Their answers f- variably have been that thelr trade was very much better and more sat- fsfactory this season than lasé. One reliable Negro merchant said to the writer “My. trade for the Christmas of 1915 was the best: I haye ever had since being in business.” This gratt- fying news to the people pf this com- munity, who feel that they, fra way, had a part in bringing about such along and happy results.

CHURCH Quite a number of triomis took advantage of the brilliant sunshine on Sunday morning and accompanied Rev. Wright to Nicholsonboro where he conducted the services at the Nicholsonboro Baptist Church. They returned late in the afternoon. At night Rev. Wright read for the lesson Ps. 13. In a few well chosen words he introduced Rev. D. A. Deid, formerly of this city but now of Anniston, Ala. He preached a very practical sermon from Gen. 5.24. Our services are always timely. Attend and you will be benefited. ASBURY NOTES The day was ideal and the services were in every way helpful. "Go to church" was observed.

In keeping with the other churches who have waged a campaign, this church began its revival on last Monday night. it is hoped that all of our friends will join in and assist us in this work. 121 SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST On Sunday night at the Christian Negro S. D. A. Church, 36 street near Burroughs, Bro. J. F. Griswold, a member of the church, will deliver an interesting talk on the subject "The Resurrection." Bro. Griswold holds credentials to do missionary work any where in the state of Georgia. You are invited to come. ST. BENEDICT'S CHURCH Saint Mary's Catholic school has the distinction of being always at its best when the pupils give to the public their very interesting Christmas and closing exercises. Last Monday a large audience composed of parents and friends had gathered in Saint Mary's hall to witness the best program ever rendered in Savannah. Teachers and children are to be highly congratulated upon the great success obtained. It shows that the benefits of our Catholic schools in Savannah are much appreciated by our people of the east and west sides. The most important element in the education of the child is the teacher and when it is said that the teachers of St. Benedict's and St. Mary's have achieved a wide reputation for the excellence of work in education, nothing further is necessary to be said to assure the parents of our schools that the teaching is thorow and the discipline gentle and firm. It is earnestly hoped that the parents will zealously co-operate with the teachers in their efforts for the spiritual and temporal welfare of their children, especially by sending them to school, regularly during the second term of this school year. We are pleased to announce that Vory Rev. Father Melchior, O. S. B. postponed his departure to Belmont, N. C., for several days. He celebrated the high mass last Sunday at St. Benedict's and made a very eloquent and genial address to the large congregation who had come to see, greet and hear him. Father Melchior said at repeated times that he was delighted to see St. Benedict's congregation again, but delighted above all because they had remained steadfast and faithful to their christian faith. "Hold together and obey your priest" he emphatically said, "So that you may be able to carry back to Jesus the white garment of baptism un-tainted with mortal sin, and the light of faith burning in all its splendor and purity. The Society of St. Mary's Aid has elected new officers for the coming year: President, Mrs. Florence Ward; Vice President, Mrs. Eliza Jordan Recording Secretary, Miss Veronica Beasley; Financial Secretary, Mr. James Dowse; Clerk of Order, Miss Regina Simmons; Sick Committee, Mrs. Cecile Ford. The installation of same took place Wednesday evening in the basement of St. Benedict's church where the usual refreshments were served after the ceremony to a chanting gathering of members and friends whose hearts seemed all to beat in unison. Next Sunday there will be holy hour. I. e., exposition of the blessed sacrament with the recitation of the rosary, meditation, singing of hymns and benediction. After the service the regular monthly meeting of St. Mary's Aid will take place. BAPTIST MINISTERS' UNION The Baptist Ministers' Union met in regular session Monday at the First A. B. Church Franklin square with nearly its full membership present. After the usual routine, election of officers for the ensuing term was held. The entire old board was retained. The officers were installed with a few appropriate and encouraging words by Revs. T. Jefferson Goodall and W. Bolivar Davis. The necessity of the city-wide co-operative revival effort was stressed by many of the speakers and each pastor and others were urged to do their best. The coming National Baptist Convention and the need of starting in time to prepare for same were urged upon all. A few personal donations were paid to the committee of arrangements. The committee selected Rev. H. Dumbar, Joe Johnson, J. H. Barnes and A. J. Gains, to cooperate with them in their effort to make the entertainment of the convention a success. Rev Jesse White was added as a new member. The president of the union is Rev. Wm. Gray and the secretary Rev. A. L. Hamilton. ST. JOHN BAPTIST CHURCH A series of revival meetings have no wogum at St. John Baptist church and the public is Invited to take part.

Text of the Lesson, Acts ii, 22-41. Memory Verces, 28, 39—Golden Text, Acts ii, 21—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. This is the first recorded sermon of a mere man filled with the Spirit, and if all sermons were molded on the same pattern the Holy Spirit could accomplish much more than He by an ordinary sermon permitted to do, for in this sermon by Peter the Word of God is the substance of the discourse. He quoted at least four portions of Scripture, the prophecy of Joel: II Sam. vii; Psalms xvi and ex. It was what would be called now a Bible study, and I have learned in forty years of experience that the souls of men everywhere are hungering for the Word of God, and it is written of that alone that it shall not return to Him void and that by it He will accomplish His pleasure (Isa. iv. 11). Peter quoted from Joel ii. 28-32, to show that this manifestation of the Spirit was a fulfillment of that prediction, and not any wild ravings of drunken men. The complete fulfillment of Joel's words will be at the second coming of Christ to judge the nations and open the eyes of Israel (Joel ill. 1, 2). Peter then told them that Jesus of Nazareth, whom God had so manifestly approved among them, but whom they had by wicked hands crucified, God had raised from the dead, according to His assurance to David in Ps. xvi and II Sam. vii, and had given Him a place at His own right hand until the time should come for Him to overthrow His enemies according to Ps. cx. God had told David that He would establish his throne and his kingdom forever in one of his descendants, and our lesson says that David knew that God meant not Solomon, but the Messiah, the Christ (II Sam. vil. 12-19; Acts ii. 30, risen from the dead and immortal. The sufferings of Christ are most vividly portrayed in Isa. llii, but His resurrection is seen there also in verse 10, for one who dies can prolong his days only by rising from the dead. Notice in this discourse Peter's references to the resurrection of Christ in verses 24, 30, 32, 36—that by the resurrection God made that same Jesus whom they had crucified both Lord and Christ and that He had raised up Christ to sit on the throne of David. In I Pet. i. 21, we read that God raised Him from the dead and gave Him glory. We seem to come nearest to the Father's heart when we, too, give Him glory or seek in all things to glorify Him (I Pet. iv. 11). When the prophet Micah predicted His birth in Bethlehem he spoke of Him as "ruler in Israel" (Mie. v. 2), and in the fullness of time He will surely be King of the Jews on the throne of David, but He will also be the King of kings and Lord of lords, King over all the earth (Luke i. 32, 33; Rev. xvil. 11; xix. 16; Zech. xiv. 9). Being rejected (the Jews insisted on crucifying Him, saying, "We have no sing but Caesar"—John xix, 14, 15). He ascended, and the heaven must receive Him until the times of restoration of all things which God hath spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets since the world began (Acts ill, 21). The congregation to whom Peter delivered this discourse were all Jews, devout men out of every nation under heaven (verse 5), and when they saw from their own Scripture, as unfolded to them by the Spirit through Peter, that their Mes-iah was to die and rise from the dead and thus become an immortal man, and that what had been done by their rulers in their blindness was also foreseen and recorded, the Spirit convinced them of their sin, and they said to Peter and the rest, "Men and brethren, what shall we do?" (Verse 37.) Peter urged them to repent and be baptized and receive remission of sins and the gift of the Holy Spirit. This they gladly did, and that day about 3,000 Jews were added to the number of the saved in Christ (verses 3S-41). This is one fulfillment of the words of the Lord Jesus, "Greater works than these shall he do because I go unto the Father" (John 12, 12). We must not think that if we are Spirit filled we shall always see souls saved, for Stephen was filled with the Spirit and so spoke that he received stones enough to kill him (vl. 5, 10; vii. 35, 60), but probably Saul never forgot it, and it may have been one of the links in the chain leading to his conversion. One who is Spirit filled will say as Paul did, "Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life or by death" (Phil. 1. 20; Rom. xiv, S). Let us learn from verse 23 of our lesson that God's foreknowledge of what wicked people will do to His people does not lessen the guilt of the evil-doers, nor in any way excuse them. Let us learn also that God permits evil-doers and even the devil, to work out unintentionally His purposes, for He maketh the wrath of man to praise Him and restrains the reminder (Ps. lxxvi. 10). May we ever rejoice in the risen Living Christ. His finished work. His present ministry of intercession. His coming again and in all the glory of His Kingdom, continuing steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine, with gladness (42-47). By the same, Spirit who dwelt in Jesus Christ we may be approved of God and have Him work in us such works that God shall be glorified in us (verse 22; 11 Tim. 11, 15) CHRISTMAS TREE FOR CHILDREN IN YAMACRAW Over 100 poor children of Yamaecraw were given a Christmas tree on new year's day at the Floral Shelter Home, 550 Indian street. It was a very happy occasion for the children, matron and friends. The house was decorated with palms and the walls hung with streamers of Christmas greenery. Mrs. Flora Smith, the founder, deserves great credit for the interest she has taken in the children. Mrs. Smith presided, assisted by by Mrs. Davis, vice-president of the home, and Mrs. Rachael Moore, chairman of the adult committee of the Urban League. Prof. Lz B. Thompson, of the Georgia State College, gave the children an excellent talk. After the exercises the little ones were served ice cream, cake and candy and were given a little package of fruit as a present. It is the hope of the adult committee of the Urban League with the co-operation of Mrs. Smith, to start a series of religious and social afternoons for the children and evenings for the mothers. The Christmas season is over, but those that need help are still with us. The New Year lies before us, and every one who loves his neighbor should give his thought and strength to this worthy cause. SAVED! SAVED! SAVED! "I look unto Me; and he ye saved, all ends of the earth; for I am God, and therefore is none else." (Isaiah 15:22.) That many of the sinners in Savannah can say "saved" when they come to press a dieting pillow, the Christians among the white Baptists and the Christians among the colored Baptists are now engaged in a cooperative religious soul winning campaign. On tomorrow (Sunday) the charging orders will be given and soul saving preaching will commence in all of the missionary Baptist churches. Rev. Richard Carroll, the noted evangelist of Columbia, S. C., at the Second Baptist Church of which Rev. W. Bolivar Davis is pastor, at the hour of 2 p. m., will make the first charge against slu and Satan in the mammoth mass meeting for men and boys. While the engagement in the men's meeting is going on Mrs. Corrie Carroll, Mrs. Susie Beck and Miss Lela Gilliam will attack the enemies of the cross on the west side at the First Bryan Baptist Church, Rev. Daniel Wright, pastor. The men, women, boys and girls of Savannah should not fail to attend these meetings. Day meetings will be held daily from 10 to 12 at the First African Baptist Church, Rev. T. Jefferson Goodall, pastor, conducted by Rev. C. LeRoy Butler, D. D., of New York, field evangelist of the Home mission board of the Southern Baptist Convention. Remember that every Christian in Savannah is called to service, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that the city of Savannah may be "moved for God." Rev. Weston Brunner, D. D., of Atlanta, superintendent of evangelism of the Home Mission board, will be on the scene to encourage the soldiers on the "firing line." Rev. C. T. Walker, D. D., of Augusta, will be commanding officer for the second regiment the first week of the campaign. For once let us join in prayer and service to God to save the unsaved of Savannah. Preaching every night at the several churches will continue from the second to the fourth Sunday in January. The best way to start the new year right is to "get right with God." If you are saved labor to bring others to Christ. Yours for the winning of many souls. W Bolivar Davis, chairman 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 traders. The Sultan Achmet II, walking through the streets of Stambou, 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 seraglio." "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." Nan—I like a play with a stirring plot.
