The Savannah Tribune. VOLUME XXXI GEORGIA BISHOPRIC NOMINEESELECTED SPIRITED CONTEST IN MACON THURSDAY CHOSE President Fountain Rev. R. H. Singleton and Rev. Wm. Decker Johnson Nearest Competitors TO Winner. At the primary convention of the Georgia delegates of the A. M. E. Church, who will attend the general convention in Philadelphia, Pa., next May which was held at Steward Chapel, Macon, on Thursday, President W. A. Fountain of Morris Brown College, Atlanta, was chosen as the nominee from this state for the bishopric of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. The convention was attended by about ninety-five delegates and the fight for nomination to the bishopric was one of much interest. During the early hours of the convention it was evident that Savannah's choice, Rev. R. H. Singleton, stood an excellent chance to win the coveted place. This was later substantiated by his-being one of the three to win out on the first ballot which was cast, the other two candidates being President Fountain of Morris Brown and Rev. Wm. Decker Johnson of Plains. - Interest was at a high pitch when a second balloting began. It was a beautiful race between the three candidates who had survived the first vote and a deadlock seemed inevitable when suddenly President Fountain's adherents were able to persuade a sufficient number of votes from the other two candidates to give him a comfortable plurality and the chance to offer himself, well supported, at the next general convention of this wonderfully organized body of churchmen for the highest honors within the gift. President Fountain is one of the most widely known churchmen in the state and a man of excellent qualifications for the honors which his state would have the general conference in May confer upon him. He is a man of much energy, of great resourcefulness and an excellent speaker. As there are three vacancies in the board of bishops, President Fountain's chance for election are considered excellent, since Georgia's voting strength is much greater than that of any other episcopal district of the church.

SAVANNAH BOY ON MOREHOUSE DEBATING TEAM Mr. John Adams Will Represent His School Against Talladega Atlanta, Ga.—During the past few days Morehouse has been fortunate to have some very distinguished visitors. Among the members were President Dogan of Wiley University, Marshall, Texas; President Davage of the Sedalia School in Sedalia, Mo. Dr. Moreland and Mr. Tobias, international secretaries of the Y. M. C. A., and Mr. Yergan, one of the student secretaries of the Y. M. C. A.. Mr. Tobias held a very important meeting with the Y. M. C. A. cabinet. The preliminaries for the inter-collegiate debating team were held last Tuesday evening. John Adams and Walter Zuber with Earnest Richards as alternate were chosen to defend the home team against Talladega. David and Miles Fisher, with Robert Reid as alternate were chosen to go to Knoxville College. John Adams one of the members of the team is a Savannah boy, the son of Mr. and Mrs. J. Q. Adams of this city. He will be the first speaker for his school in the debate against Talladega. The question for discussion this year is Resolved: that immigration to the United States should be restricted by a literacy test. The triangular debate between Morehouse, Talladega and Knoxville will occur early in April. On Friday, January 14, occurred the sixth annual concert of the 'glee club and orchestra. The college chapel was crowded and the musical was the best that has ever been given here. The programme was varled, consisting of selections by the glee club, orchestra, quartette, solos and readings. The three crowning selections of the evening, were Carmen, Fantasie, by Blzet, orchestra; Rose of Algeria by Victor Herbert, orchestra, and a sextet from Lucia di Lammermoor, by Gaetona Donizetti, chorus and orchestra. All of these great selections were rendered faultlessly. Mr. Harrel worked very hard in the preparation for this musical and with such an ardent director, the concert was certainly deserving of success. The football team will have its annual reception this afternoon. BRUNSWICK, GA., NEWS Brunswick, Ga., January 20th. Brigadier General G. R. Hutto was with the Pythians of Brunswick Friday night, January 14th on business. He reviewed the uniform rank who were on the alert of his coming. They made a splendid showing before their chief officer of the state. The grand chancellor reported the Pythians in Georgia in fine condition both numerically and financially. After the business session the Grand Chancellor was entertained with a smoker at the home of Sir. Knight O. S. Deloach by the committee on arrangements. While the grand chancellor was being entertained by the brethren Mrs. Hutto was held at bay by the ladies at the home of Rev. and Mrs. B. F. Seabrooks. The menus prepared were delightful and the evening passed off pleasantly with speeches by Grand Lecturer C. A. Clark Capt. H. D. Malloy and others. Brunswick is ready to re-elect Grand Chancellor Hutto to lead the Pythian army. Mr. J. C. Dubignon, the house decorator, has just finished the largest job of paper hanging ever given a colored man in this section of the state. Excelsior Lodge of S. J.

SATURDAY JANUARY 22ND, 1916 TTEJ NY Secretary Emmett J. Scott of Tuskegee Institute, who has charge of the Booker T. Washington Memorial Fund Arrest Charter From Georgia Odd Fellows DAVIS AND INGRAM REPORTED SUSPENDED FOR 12 MONTHS A Court, Scrape will Probably Be the Result of the Sub Committee's Ruling. The arrest of the charter of the Odd Fellows of Georgia and the suspension of Grand Secretary B. J. Davis and Grand Master B. S. Ingram are reported to be the partial findings of the Sub Committee of Management which met in Philadelphia last Monday. The affairs of the followers in this state, of Peter Ogden have been in a rather uncertain state especially since the last grand lodge held in Athens at which time a few delegates protested against the manner in which certain affairs in the convention were conducted. At that time a rump convention was attempted but little of the voting strength of the delegates was in attendance upon the new convention and the old officers were re-elected by the regular convention. It was stated by certain members of the rump convention shortly after the Athens meeting that the Sub Committee of Management would be appealed to and an adjustment of the troubles sought. The whole matter was therefore laid before the committee in Philadelphia on last week. Among the findings of the committee it is admitted by both sides, tho no official statement has get been given out, that the charter of the order in this state has been arrested and that Grand Master B. S. Ingram of Macon and Grand Secretary B. J. Davis of Atlanta have been suspended from the order for a period of 12 months. This ruling by the Sub Committee probably means the reorganization of the grand lodge in this state within the next sixty or ninety days tho it is thought by many that before the Davis-Ingram faction will adhere to it they will take a resort to the courts of the state and a long drawn out a case of litigation will ensue. DR. FONVIELLE BURIES MOTHER Dr. J. E. Fonvielle of the Savannah Pharmacy was called to Goldsboro, N. C., on Tuesday of last week because of the death of his mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Fonvielle.

Fennell, a native of this city who left for Europe last April aboard a Belgian tramp, returned home last week, after undergoing many trying ordeals in the war zone and bringing back a badly wounded left thigh as a reminder of the awful experiences he suffered on one of King George's transports. Mr. Fennell, when he shipped on the trump out of Savannah, intended to return after a short trip, but his taste for the fighting game during the Spanish-American war was revived when he viewed King George's battleships in England, so he enlisted in the service under the Union Jack as a second cook. He was assigned to the transport Empress of Britain, which was carrying troops to Egypt. When two days out of Liverpool the transport was fired on but the Empress got away untouched and landed her troops safe at Alexandria. Two days after the troops had landed they reimbarked and the Empress set sail for Tunic. It was after leaving Tunic when the Empress was in the Dardenelles that Mr. Fennell had his most harrowing experience. The ship was fired upon by submarines and orders were given to put on life belts. The shots began to fall thick and fast about the ship and many of the soldiers were being slaughtered by the deadly fire. Things became unbearable and Fennell with many others jumped over board. Fennell had been wounded in the thigh in the rain of shots and he could scarcely jump thru the port hole. He was in the water about four hours when picked up by a French torpedo boat, thousands of his former shipmates having been lost. Mr. Fennell was then sent to the hospital at Southport, England, and, after mending sufficiently received a leave of absence and arrived in America Thursday of last week, returning home Friday. Mr. Fennell is glad to be back home but expects to return to the service of King George as soon as his thigh has sufficiently healed. Mr. Fennell has many interesting pictures of the war zone and his discussions of the European conflict are very interesting. He is stopping at 315 West Henry street. During his absence his mother died and news of her death when he arrived was quite a shock to him. He will lecture at several places about the war and his experiences. AT THE Y. M. C. A. The association held one of the most interesting and helpful meetings on last Sunday. Instrumental and vocal solos by Messrs J. H. Lissimore and C. M. Robinson respectively, were both pleasing and highly artistic. The illustrated lecture on the bible given by Rev. C. L. Dixon of New Bedford, Mass., a specialist on the Bible, was one of the most instructive ever given on the Bible at the association's Sunday meetings. The association will long remember this special effort of Rev. Dixon. Tomorrow's meeting promises to be interesting. In an addition to special music numbers there will be a special address by Prof. W. B. Tibbs of the Commercial Department of the Ga., State College. The slogan of the association for 1916 is "A home for our association." Come out on tomorrow and learn the plans of the association for the year 1916. Mr. R. E. Fennell, a former Savannahan who has seen active service in the Dardanelles, promises to be present and to give a graphic description of his experiences at the front. The meeting will begin promptly at 5 p.m., at St. Paul C. M. E. Church, West Broad and Maple streets. Preparations are now under way for a five nights fair under the auspices of the Ladies Auxiliary of the Y. M. C. A., which will be given at the Harris Street hall, beginning week of February 14th. General admission 10 cents, season ticket 35 cents. It is hoped that all will co-operate in making this fair a grand success. CURRY—FREEMAN Mr. T. Freeman, Jr. son of Mr. and Mrs. T.

Washington Other Interesting Items of What the Citizens of the National Capitol are Doing. Washington, D. C., Jan 17.—An audience of both races which packed the spacious Metropolitan A. M. E. Church to the doors witnessed yesterday the exercises at the national memorial meeting, held as a mark of respect to the memory of the late Dr. Booker T. Washington, founder and principal of the Tuskegee Institute in Alabama, who died November 14. The meeting was held in the name of the 10,000,000 Negroes under the American flag, the local arrangement being made by a citizen's committee of fifty, herded by Henry Lassiter as chairman, R. W. Thompson, secretary and Daniel Freeman, treasurer. For more than two hours, speakers of national fame extolled the virtues of the Negroes' greatest educator and leader and commended the work which he set in motion and carried on with such signal benefit, not only to the people of his own race, but for the good of the nation and for the general uplift of mankind. It was the consensus of opinion that the work of the industrial training and character building for the Negro youth, launched at Tuskegee Institute, must go on and that its permanency is now secure by reason of the tremendous momentum and energies Booker T. Washington has given it thru more than thirty years of ceaseless activity and earnest devotion. The principal address of the occasion was delivered by the Hon. Seth Low, former mayor of New York City and chairman of the board of trustees of Tuskegee Institute. Mr. Low described in a graphic manner the broad scope of the training of head, hand and heart at Tuskegee Institute, and how efficiently and capably the correlation of academic, manual and normal elements of education are being carried out in the wonderful school founded by Booker T. Washington. He spoke of the number of splendid buildings that had been erected entirely by student labor, and from plans drawn by a Negro architect and of the excellent advantages the school offers. He described the national influence of Dr. Washington and told of how this influence was even felt in foreign countries in the establishment of industrial schools. Before closing his helpful address, Mr. Low called attention to the plan of the trustees to raise a fund of $2,000,000 to relieve the principal of the burden of raising a deficit each year of $150,000 in the running expenses of the school and to issure the permanency and enlargement of the work set up by the deceased leader. Of this amount the colored people were asked to contribute $250,000, out of which a suitable monument would be erected to the memory of Dr. Washington. White friends of the cause would give the remainder of the $2,000,000, $450,000 already being pledged. Mr. Low summed up the work of Dr. Washington not only as a service to the Negro but a service to the nation and to mankind. Following Mr. Low spoke William Gibbs McAdoo, secretary of the treasury, Mr. Joseph Daniels, secretary of the navy, Judge Robert H. Terrell, Prof. elly Miller, Former Commissioner of the District, Henry B. F. Macfarland, Mrs. R. F. Jones, Dr. Stephen Morrell Newman, Miss. Nanie H. Burroughs. Secretary R. W. Thompson read a number of letters from prominent persons throut the country who had been invited to be present lpt sent messages of regret that they were prevented by some other engagements from accepting the invitation. Among those regretting their enforced absence, but sending tributes of praise were Former Presidents William H. Taft and Theodore Rosevelt. NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITOL Washington, D. C. Mme. E. Azalla Hackley comes on February 2 at John Wesley A. M. E. (Continued on Page 8) --- PAGE TWO Interesting Modlies on Fashion's Spring Counters May we Expect the Return of the Bonnet? A WORD ON THE WHITE SALE New York, January 10.—Even the most skeptical among us must be thrilled and interested by the the attractive novelties fashion is now placing on her spring counter, and in her spring shops. For instance there are the quaint bonnets which are being displayed at the moment in our military departments, as a logical sequence of the modish gathered and flaring skirts. Fluttering about one of these bonnets, a fascinating creation of garnet braid and white gardenias, in one of our smart shops the other afternoon was a quaintly smart little person, dressed all in gray. She wore one of the new faille suits, made with a rather close fitting coat; flaring widely at the lower edge, combined with the most modern of old-fashioned skirts. It was a veritable "pull-back", having all the fullness drawn to the back and held by a tape fastened at the side seam— McCALL House Coat of Cotton Corduroy fitting as smoothly and plainly across the front as the narrowest of skirts did some seasons back. From belt to hem in back, the skirt was stiffened with hair-cloth, causing the fullness to fall in several outstanding folds. At the involuntary upward and downward glance she induced, one expected to see a pair of extremely high French heels on silver buckled slippers, or a high-crowned, flower-trimmed chapeau. As the small person continued on her way from counter to counter, the skirt swung in true, hoop-skirt fashion, which it must be admitted was quite fascinating. The Annual Sale of White At this season of the year, of course, one expects to find the shops veritable bowers of white; to find the most fascinating of cotton's, suggested for summer frocks, and to be charmed by the airy blouses, parasols, and other articles designed, as it seems, for wear in Fairyland itself. The white sale this year is considerably mixed with pink and the other soft tones which have been gradually coming into favor for underwear the last few seasons. There are the daintest possible combinations, chemises, camisole, and the numerous other underfittings which go so far toward the success of frock or suit. Silk mull, and other soft cotton's vie for favor with the most expensive Italian silk. All of these silks and cotton's wash excellently and require no ironing. While the silk garments are at first a trifle expensive for the majority of purses, in the end they are economical; they fit so well, wear so well and are generally so entirely satisfactory. The Vogue of White White will be quite as modish for skirt, suit and frock this season as it has been for the past summer or two. Serge, gabardine and broadcloth are smart for those who can afford more than one white frock or suit, but for the practical woman cotton corduroy in its various cords will be far more practical; it may be easily and effectively tubbed when soiled. These corduroys come in the pale pinks, blues, yellows and similar tones for separate skirts, suits, and sport coats or blouses. Among the seasons novelties is the house coat; it closely resembles the sport coat or blouse, and could in fact be used for the same purpose, but it has been designed for house wear, to take the place, as it were, of the kimono, with the woman who does not care for, or who has not the time to indulge in, the luxury of so complete a negligee as the kimono, or similar loose fitting house robe. These are being developed in the colored cotton and corduroys, and in like corded cotton. They are finished with wide collars, deep, roomy pockets, and are loosely belted. Combined with skirts of white linen, duck, khaki, or cotton corduroy, they are excellently suited to morning wear and the house. Continued Popularity of the Jumper The jumper dress or blouse is one of the most satisfactory notions introduced for many seasons; instead of losing favor because of its general popularity, it is, on the contrary, becoming daily more in demand. For business, © McCALL street, and general daytime wear, the dark blue serge jumper frock combined with an underblouse of crepe de Chine, Georgette, or black satin, is most satisfactory. The fact that the underblouse may be changed, and the frock so varied, makes its appeal to women who like a change now and then, but who cannot afford a great number of frocks. Satin or taffeta blouses or jumpers, with sleeves of a transparent or contrasting material are still being worn for afternoons and more dressy occasions, combined with skirts of taffeta, faille or satin. CARE OF THE BABY IN WINTER First of a series of six articles prepared by the Children's Bureau. V. S. Department of Labor. So much emphasis is constantly placed upon the necessity for special care of the baby in summer, when the heat is excessive and diarrheal diseases at their worst, that the fact that winter, too, has its special dangers for the baby is sometimes overlooked. But the combination of heat and diarrhea is hardly more serious for the baby in the months of July and August, than are the cold respiratory diseases of winter. It is plain then, that the winter care of the baby deserves special attention from everyone, interested in his health and well-being. It has been demonstrated quite conclusively that a large part of the deaths from summer diarrhea are needless, because this disease may be cured in many cases, and prevented entirely in many more by the proper care and feeding of the baby during the heated months. The same doctrine is now being applied to the group of what are commonly called "winter diseases of babies and children, namely, bronchitis, pneumonia, "colds", and the like, which are, like diarrhea, to a large extent, preventable by the intelligent care of the baby, and by surrounding him with the proper living conditions. The proper living conditions consist both in winter and summer of suitable food, in the right amounts, at the right times, cleanliness, sufficient sleep, plenty of fresh, clean air to breath, and protection from exposure to infectious diseases. It is chiefly the lack of these latter requirements that causes the winter illnesses among babies. It is not the cold winter which makes people sick, ordinarily, but rather the stale over-heated air inside of houses and public buildings, which we breathe and re-breathe, thus passing disease germs about from one to the other. Babies are particu- larly, liable to be infected in this way, because they spend a large part of their time indoors, and because mothers are apt to feel that to keep the baby warm the rooms must be kept shut tight. out during the a little while run the risk of plies especially bables. As a walk about a A mother should use every means in her power to protect her baby from "taking cold," as it is commonly described. "Colds" are due to a germ and are very contageous, being easily passed from one person to another in coughing or sneezing. A nursing mother with a cold should tie a thin cloth or vell over her mouth and nose while nursing the baby, and should be careful never to cough or sneeze in his face; nor kiss him on the mouth. She should be particularly careful not to use her own handkerchief for the baby, nor sleep with him, while the disease lasts. Many babies contract these colds by being taken up and kissed by visitors, and it is a wise rule to keep the baby away from the presence of people who are coughing and sneezing. The reason for this great care as regards a baby is that a contagious cold is often the forerunner of bronchitis and pneumonia, which diseases cause the death of many thousands of young babies every year, and which are infinitely easier to prevent than to cure. Fresh air is the most effective weapon with which to fight the diseases of the respiratory tract. This does not necessarily mean cold air, for cold air may be stale, and warm air may be pure. The ventilation of most American houses is faulty, since in order to keep them warm enough to suit us we shut them in tightly so as to make the air unfit to breathe, after a few hours. To counteract this tendency mothers should see to it that all the occupied rooms of the house are thoroughly aired at least twice every day in the coldest weather, while in moderate weather there should be as nearly constant a supply of fresh air throut the house, night and day, as can be managed. When the temperature outside is very low, the baby should be taken into a warm room while his nursery is being aired, and at night, his bed should be shielded from a direct draft. If there is a communicating room, the window in that room may be opened, if there is danger of chilling the air of his sleeping room. If the cold is excessive, or if there is a raw, damp wind blowing or rain or snow is falling, the baby should be given his daily airing in a room with the windows open, or on a protected porch, dressing him warmly in out of door clothing.

But an airing every day does not take the place of fresh air in the house, day and night, and to secure sufficient ventilation for health the mother must be on the watch to see that the room is opened and the air changed at frequent intervals.

Webster, principal Nor- mal Dept, Atlanta University. * A sense of humor frequently saves #’ tense situation. Ir is said of President Lincoln, that at one time he called his cabinet to gether to discuss a course of action upon which he had made up his mind. Somewhat to his surprise, every mem- Ler of his executive family negatived the proposed action. The President sat for some moments in deep thought, «licappointed perhaps at the attitude of his advisers; then he looked at them with a twinkle in his eye, and a smile nbout his Ups. “Gentlemen” he said, “the ayes” ave ft’' That is, the president had assumed responsibility Tor 2 line of action against the advice of his eabinet, but the tenseness of the situation was relieved by the hum- vrons statement of the President's de- vision. I have often felt that the Man of Galilee must have been similarly endewed with a saving senses of hu- mor, as he met various crises in his life. Instead of looking upon his adver- aaries with bitterness, the humorous side‘must have appealed to hin, as he grclaimed, “Ye are like children in the murket-place. We have piped unto you and ye will not dance. We have inourned unto you and you would not lamet.”| The paraphrase. “Ye are sullen children, who will not enter into any sort of play. Ye wont play wedding; and ye wont play funeral.” Reeall the incident when Peter said to his master “Behold we have left all and followed Thee; what shall we have therefore?” And Jesus must have smiled inwardly, tho all signs of the appreciation of the humorous side were earcfully suppressed: and something like the following may have Passel thru His mind: “Roys what have you given up? Some leaky boats on the Sea of Galilee, with rotting sails; a little house Peter, on a side street in Capernaum, and perhaps. a small home in Jerusalem for you. Jobn; and what shall you receive? Toys, your names are siready written upon the foundation stunes of the new Jernsaiom.” Tf. that {s too poetical a statement for your minds to grasp, then let me tell you, that you are the founders of a new civilization; you wil become the marked men of all foture time. “Verily, T say unto you, That ye who hare followed Me . wher the Son of Man shall sit upon the throne of His glory, ye shall sit upan thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. And everyone that hag forsaken houses, or brethren. or sisters, or fathers, or mothers, or wife. or children, or lands for My name's sake, shall receive in this world a hundredfold and in the world to come, life everlasting.” Anil this leads to the thought of the moment. namely, that there are two words-in the English languaze | that I do not like in the usual use made of them. And these words are “sacrifce” and “compensation.” I recently notice in some comments upon the life of Mr. Washington, that the writer spoke of the sacrifices Mr: Washington had made for his people. He might have said with Peter, “We have left atl; what shall we receive?” But, I cannot imagine it. What did Booker Taliferro Washington — sacri- fice? Born, no one knows when; at his death, every telegraph line in this and foreign countries carried the mes- sage. Sacrifice! No, opportunity! ‘To him came an opportunity which ex- pressed Itself in the Atlanta speech, which lifted him at once into the fore- front of publicity, and made possible the history with which we are so fa- miliar. We sometimes speak of Lincoln's! sacrifice. Think; what did he give! up? A little law office in Springficld, WL, and a little law practice; a fare utation as 2 story teller, and a man who studied both sides of his, case so that he knew his opponent's side of the case almost better than his own, And -the outcome? He became the one man of his country. The sonth srevificed Lincoln, but Lincouln achieved a career, Even in that sue preme event in all history, the cruci- fixion, I do not see that Jesus sac- rificed, tho [ recognize that His peo- ple sacrificed Him, and in that sae rilice, nH Jewish history since bas heen written. : Thi, raises the question, “What is sacrifice?” And here T suspect Io am against the ordinary usage, as witness the illustrations that I have used. When 2 man accepts a lower for a higher opportunity fo my mind he sacrifices. The reverse is neither sac- rifice ner compensation, It becomes: a career, When Daniel Webster had graduated from Dartmouth College, he was offered the clerkship of the county court of Rockingham county, New Hampshire. at a salary of $1200. He planned to accept the position, for $1.- 200 seemed larze to a boy of college and with college debts to meet, But he happened to drop Into the office of % prominent Boston lawyer and states the situution to him. And the lawyer friend said to him “Webster. if you go to that clerkship, you will remain clerk of Rockingham county as long 4s you live. Come here to my office, study law here without pay, and make . career for yourself’ And Webster took the advice, zave up a salary, studied law, and made a career, That it seem to me is the center and core of the whole matter. Not a sacritice for which in some way compensation somes, but a career. It is at this point that our personal conflicts rise; our temptations meet us here. Not ta choose that which is absolutely wrong ay against that which js absolutely right. Perhaps no sharp line can be drawn, The question 1s ns between the low and the high, the THE SAVAMMNAH TRIBUNE. worthy career. One of the snd phases of life lies in the fact, that we can only know the thing we have got; we can never know the thing we might have had. Here we stand in our youth, at: two closed doors, one of which we may open. When we choose one we forever close all possibilities which Me within “the other. It is this problem of choice which betrays our dual nature. On the one hand we are tied to the brute creation; on the other we are joined with the angels. We stand with our feet upon the earth, but our heads are among the stars. We afe human and divine. In Biblical phrases We are flesh and spirit, and the “flesh warreth against the spirit, and the spirit against the flesh.” And be- tween these two, the transient and the permanent, the low and the high, the ol and the better, the things of the flesh and those of the spirit there Is eternal confilet. And there will be eternal conflict until the spirit becomes master, and the flesh 15 subservient to the purpose of the spirit.

Advertising Rates given on Application. Entered at the Post Office at Savannah, Georgia, as Second class Mail Matter. The rumor of the arrest of the charter of the Odd Fellows of the state and the suspension of the grand master and grand secretary by the Sub Committee of Management will, beyond a doubt, do the order in this state no good. There are hundreds of the followers of the order who regret to learn of the unrest and fear the resultant harm which may ensue. We do not know exactly what all of the findings of the Sub Committee in the Georgia troubles are and we do not know which side is right, but we do know that it is an unfortunate state of affairs when the order here has its charter taken away from it temporarily and we fear, tho in this we hope we are mistaken, that it will eventually retard the rapid progress which the order has been making. It is without the remotest possibility but that the six Negroes, suspected of killing a sheriff, who were confined in the Sylvester jail and taken out by a mob Thursday night are now hanging lifeless to trees on some public highway, victims of another ruthless lynching bee by a Georgia mob. The press reports of the brutal killing of these persons, we dare say, will scarcely attract the slightest attention of the state authorities, so often have such crimes been committed against Negroes in this state here of late. This state of affairs will probably go on for some time, but finally when the killing fever gets so general and the barbaric white mobs begin to ruthlessly kill members of their own race a halt will be called. That this state of affairs is approaching is attested by the increased number of whites that are being lynched every year in the southland and it will not be long before the tide of mob law will have so strong a hold on this state until the life of a white man will be as cheap to these mobs as that of a Negro. It may not ring pleasingly to the law abiding white citizens of the state to say that this is approaching but it is true nevertheless, and the time when all human life in the state will count for naught may not be so very distant, if such whole sale disregard for law and order is allowed to go much further. The value of a Negro's life in the small towns and rural districts of this state is now held at a mighty low figure and that of the white man will surely be reduced in time to come unless a check is placed upon these white lynching parties. Seldom do a people have a better opportunity of showing their appreciation for one of their number, who has lived and died for them, than is now the case with the Negroes of this country in honoring the work of the lamented Booker T. Washington by giving generously to the memorial fund of two million dollars which is now being raised in recognition of the great service he has rendered to them and the country in general. There is rarely any avenue of endeavor in which the Negro has advanced within the past twenty years but that it has not been benefited by the work which Booker T. Washington did at his school in Tuskegee, or otherwise. He has raised the moral tone of our people, he has endeavored to better our religious life, our educational advantages in the trades have certainly been greatly helped by his teachings and he has contributed to our commercial and business standing as no other person has yet been able to do. It is, then, but truly fitting that we who have received so much from his life, should, now that he has passed away in body from this world, contribute liberally to the movement which is under way to perpetuate the work which the "Wizzard of Tuskegee" so well planned and managed during his thirty years of service at the celebrated educational centre of Alabama and whose influence has reached out even across the waters of the Atlantic into the dark continent of Africa. The raising by our people of an eighth of the sum the trustees of the institute hope to put into this memorial fund should be indeed an easy matter when it is considered that the man's material worth to the race whose work this fund will perpetuate, cannot ever be adequately estimated in cents and dollars. Ten million black souls have been benefited materially, morally, intellectually and spiritually by his having lived among us, worked among us and died for us, and a pitiful sum such as is asked of for us to raise in order that his work might stand forth as a shining light to posterity and a guiding star for us who are now sharing in its benefits should verily be an easy task. It is for us to demonstrate to the world that we appreciate the great work Booker T. Washington did among us and there is no more forceful way of doing this than by giving liberally to the fund which is now being raised to insure its living for many generations to come. The following taken from the Independent, white, published in Elizabeth City, N. C., makes interesting reading matter: Georgia Again in the Limelight Georgia, the "Cracker State," is again in the limelight. A white overseer named Villiplgue was killed near Blakely, Ga, according to reports, and three Negroes, Grandison Goolsby and his two sons, Mike and Ulysses, were charged with the crime. Posses of white men were instantly organized and the blood-thirsty Georgians went on the war path like many wild American Indians or Australian head-hunters. Newspaper reports credited these posses with having killed seven Negroes in one day. Negroes were run away from their homes and Negro property was ruthlessly destroyed. Wherever the mobs found a Negro lodge hall, there a confligation was started. Four Negro meeting houses were burned to the ground in one day. In one neighborhood the Negroes tore down their own property to spare it from the torch of the white flands. Knowing these Georgians as I do, I know that they are prepared to tell you the most remarkable tales to justify their conduct. And after they have stated their case I'll wage that it will not outweigh one asthmatic hurrah in hell. The murder of this overseer, Mr. Villipigne, may have been as brutal as the murder of Mary Phagan. The evidence against the Goolshy Negro may have been unimpeachable; but no mob could have had an excuse to have taken the law into its own hands in the case of these Negroes, and the ruthless murder of these Negroes and the destruction of the property of innocent Negroes was so horribly unjust as to make the blood of a fish boil with indignation. I shudder when I think of the price the white race in must pay some day, pay for its sins against colored people. They day of reckoning is coming, it must come, and it may be nearer at hand than the more far seeing suspects. There are probably more than ten million Negroes in the United States. Under the vicious leadership of intellectual brutes like Thomas Dixon and Thomas Watson, the troglodyte population of the Southern states has made the ten million or more Negroes hate the country in which they are forced to live but in which they are denied the rights of citizenship. The average Negro is docile, patient, kind and polite. He knows his place, he keeps his place, and, bows and smiles when he meets a white man, but deep down in the heart of every black man is a grievous knowledge of all the insults and abuses and infamies heaped upon him by men who would not for a moment pass as his superiors if their skins were not white. The Negro realizes his inferiority of number and his lack of organization and leadership. Meekly he takes the humble place assigned to him and tries to be happy, light-hearted and content. But his heart is heavy, his soul is oppressed, his vision is blurred by the welling springs of grief within, and he cannot love and respect the great white race. If we do not find a better way of dealing with the Negroes, if we do not put down the wild mobs of barbarians in the South who kick and cuff and burn and lynch black men upon the slightest provocation, we are going to some day lose our best friends, and just at that time when we shall need, him most. In Europe today the geography and politics of more than half the world are being reshaped. When the smoke of the last battle has cleared away and the last skull has been turned into the trenches, we are going to see a great readjustment and new alliance. England, the United States and the South American Republic already have a pretty good understanding and the big diplomats, and financiers of England and the two Americans, are preparing a great Anglo-American Alliance. The object of this alliance will be ostensible for mutual protection, and defense, but at the bottom of it all is business, seeking to capture and hold the world's markets. Off against this alliance may be another great alliance of Japan, China and Russia., to protect their own markets from the Anglo-American invasion. Under our present system another war must follow, as night must follow day, and in less than a decade we may expect to behold the colored races, under the leadership of Japan, at war against the great white race. And then, the white people of the South, will begin to pay the price of their brutal mistreatment of the Negro. Colored people are colored people, whether their skins be red, yellow, brown or black, and when the color-line is drawn on a world-wide battle field there will be no Jim Crow divisions on the white side of the line. It is not a bare possibility that the race that has been our best servant, may some day be converted into our most aggravating foe, by reason of our inhumanities and stupidities. Instead of worrying about how to get rid of the Negro, it may be high time for us to plan to hold his friendship and his sympathy. Before the Japanese problem is finally settled, we may find better use for the Negro than a lynching bee. HAMPTON DEFEATS HOWARD Hampton, Va.—Howard University's basket ball quintet met with another defeat Saturday night, January 15th, in the Hampton Institute gymnasium, at the hands of the Hampton basket ball tossers in a game filled with sensational passing and shooting. Time after time the house was brought to its feet by the wonderful team work exhibited by both teams. Had the shooting ability of the Howard team been equal to its exceptional passing, a different story would be written. By marvelous team work the ball was carried to the basket only to be missed. The playing of Hampton's teeth was very good, both on the defensive and offensive work, and showed a superiority after the first few minutes of play.

SUNDAY SCHOOL. Lesson V—First Quarter, Fol Jan. 30, 1916. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES, Text of the Lesson, Acts iii, 1-12. Memory Verses, 9, 10—Golden Text, Acts. iii, 6—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. Peter and Jobn seem to have been much together while He was still with them. ‘They were the two who were sent to prepare the Passover on that last night (Luke xsif. S), and possibly they may have been the two who were sent to bring the ass’ cult. They" were the first two of the apostles ut the tomb on the resurrection morulnz, and they wero together the night when the seven went afisuing amd the west morning when Peter recelved his es commission from the Lord (Jolin sx und xx). Later we shall sce them {| prison together, but released by an angel; then they were beaten, but they ceased not to tench and preach Jesus Christ (chapter v, 17-19, 40-42). They. with the others, were daily In the tem- ple for prayer and testimony; and the Lord added to thé church daily those ‘who were belug saved (chapter If, 46, ‘AT, KV). On the occasion in our esson as they were about to enter the ‘temple this man, lame from his birth sand now over forty years of age, asked alms from them (verses 1-3; iv, 22). Perhaps they remembered His words, “Ye have the poor with you always. and whensoever ye will ye may do them good” (Mark xiv, 7). For some reason Peter said to the lame maz, “Look on us,” and he looked up, expecting to receive something. He may have been for a moment disap- pointed as Meter said, “Sliver and gold have I none,” but as Peter promptly added the words following in verse 6 things began to look different. Then as he took him by the right hand and instantly strength came to his feet and ankle bones, so that he entered the temple with them, walking and leap- imz and praising God, neither silver nor gold seemed of any account to him that day, He had received directly from the risen Christ in beaven by the band of Peter that which neither mon- ey nor skill of man could give him. and be thus became a witness to the fact that the saine Jesus who had for over three years healed all manner ot diseases and even mised the dead, al- though crueffied, was still alive and working miracles as He had done be- fore (verses 13-17; iy, 10). Thus the ‘Lord Jesus continued to work as when He wns on earth through these men who were His representatives and who were channels of Ife and blessing frow the fountain in heaven to the needy on earth. He is ever “this same Jesus,” but where are the channels? ‘The people saw this great work and marveléd, but saw only the human ageuts and understood not. Then l'e- ter told them of the Iloly One of God whom they bad devied and killed, but whom God lad raised from the dead, and that He, betng alive In heaven, had wroucht this work. In the remalnder of onr lesson chapter we bear Peter telling them how ;sMoses nud all the prophets bad foretold that their Mes- slab would suffer ard be Milled and be raised from the dead and that in Him as the seed of Abraham all the kindreds of the earth would be blessed. He re- minded them that God bad spokeo through Moses of the great prophet whom [He would raise up unto them (Dent. xvii and that they must give heed to Him, and, although ther bad not dove so, but had killed Him, He was alive from the dead and had re turned to Wis Father in beaven and that even now, if they would only change their minds about Him and turn to Him, Ie would forgive theit ‘great sin and bless them and send ‘them times of refreshing (verses 19, 26). One result of this discourse by Pe- ‘ter was that about 5,000 men were added to the company of bellevers, but ‘another result was that the priests and the Sadducees who did nut believe ta any resurrection laid bands on Pe ter and John sud put them in prison (iy, 14). So it was and fs aud ever will be tH the kiugdom comes, “Sou believed, and some believed not”! (chapter xxvii, 23, 24, All we are taught to expect in this age is that sonie will belleve, und our aim must De by all means to save some {I Cor. | ix, %). He ts not expecting that all the world will turn to Him in this) time: of His rejection, but He 4s not discouraged, and He cannot fail asa, sits, 4). In the fullness of time He will come again to restore all things of which the prophets have spoken (verses 20, 21), and then when the glory -of the Lord shull be seen upon Israel the na- tlons shall come to her light and kings to the brightness of her rising.

Memory Verses, 16; 17—Golden Text, | “Rom. vili, 14—Commentary Prepared + “by Rev. D. M. Stearns. * After a lesson on Pentecost und Te- ter’s first sermon such a chapter as Romans vili seems to be an appropri- ate study, for in it the Spirit is men- tioned nineteen times in connection | with conversion, the dally life of the believer and the redemption of our bodies at the resurrection of the just. ‘The epistle begins with a statement by the apostle, as a servant of Jesus , Christ, that he was separated into the | Bospel of, God concerning His Son, Je- gus Christ our Lord, who was with ! power declared to be the Son of God by His resurrection from the dead (, .14). He said that this gospel was the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth, that ft made him , debtor to all who had not heard it, , that be was ready to, give it to all and that he was not ashamed of ft, ({, 14- 10. In the following chapters he de- clares plainly that all, without excep- tlon, are guilty before God and cannot be saved by trying to be good or do good, but may be justified freely by grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus (lif, 9-24; iv, 1-7, 19-25; ‘y, 141: vi, 23), Then In our lesson chapter, beginning with “no con- demnation” and ending with “no sep- aration” because of the love of God | which is in Christ Jesus our Lord, he , gets forth more fully the benetits of | this great redemption to every believer ard to the whole creation. ‘The whole chapter should be studied, omiting none of it. "The phrase “In Christ Jesus” (verses 1,-2, 39) seems to me to be the key | {9 the whole chapter. Nothing more is necessary, nothing less will suffice, for salvation or for the dally lfe of those who are saved. (Gal v, 6; vi | 15; Eph. 11, 10, 13; ill, 13). The carnal | mind, the flesh, the natoral man, can never be improved so as to be fit for the presence of God, and, although it remains in us after we become “in Christ,” we are under no cullgation to dt and’ should have no confidence in 4t, but continually, prayerfully and per- | statently reckon it dead in the power of the ‘Holy Spirit (chapter vi, -11; vit, 24, 26; vill, 1-14; I Cor. tx, 27; 1 Cor. iy, 10, 11; Phi. ill, 3). By the Spirit and the Word we are born again just as in the beginning of the Bible record | the Ifght shone in the darkness (Gen. | 4, 2, 3; IT Cor, tv, 6), and only by the game Spirit and Word can we live | the life of a chtld of God (John vi, 63; xvi, 17. The Spirit atways worka by the Word and thus bears witness to | the believer. ‘The witness of the Splrit | 4s not a fecling, an emotion, an expert- ence, but {3 simply a resting unwaver- ingly on what the Spirit says to us in His word. Compare lesson verse 16 } and John J, 12, and see my tract on “The Witness of the Spirit.” | Having received the Lord Jesus It | 4s our privilege to know, on the author- | ity of the infallible word of God, that i we have become children of God, hetra lof God and joint heirs with Jesus | Christ, have now eternal life and can i never perish (verses 16, 17; Jobn x, ‘ 28), While this assurance is not es- | sential to salvation, it is necessary tn order to live the life of victory that | win glorify God. As the redeemed of the Lont we hare become soldiers of Jesus Christ and are ever in a great | conflict with the world, the flesh and the devil, so there will be much to en- dure in the way of trial as well as much | to do in the way of service, but the way is all prepared for us and also the ‘works we are to do. (II Tim. il, 3, 4} Eph. vi, 10-18; iJ, 10; Rev. 1, 10; PDL 1.29.) God the Father, Son and Spirit are all for us (verses 26, 31, 34). All things are working together for our good, to make us more like Him whose witnesses We are, and Wo are assured that all we can possibly need 4s freely siven to us in Christ (rerses 28, 29, 32). ‘We shall not be the overcomers that wo should be in the process of being Killed all the day long (verse 30; Ps. ,xily, 22) unless we lay to heart out Jesson verses 18 to 25. There ts real woffering with Christ, not for our sal- ‘Yation, but in service and fellowship, for every bellever, and we will not triumph in the confiict nor endure patiently unless we have ever before us the glory of His kingdom, which we are to share with Him.
