ment, giving the name of the Urban
League and the date of the races, A
place is left ‘vacant at the bottom of

of the organization which wins it.
The cup is one of the most beautiful
trophies in the city and the most cost-
ly ever awarded by any Negro organi-
zation in this city.

received, the open events, which will
be run for the athletie‘clubs exclusive-
ly, wil attract equally as much at-
tention this year as the races in which

six clubs which have already accepted
the Urban League's invitation to en-

‘New York, March 15.—Paris aud
‘New York are both at the moment, and
have been for ever so many weeks
back, in the midst of the spring open-
‘ing hubbub. We are uot quite sure
as yet whether coats are to be shorter
or three-quarter length, — whether

It is quite safe to predict, however,
that the same general Hnes suggested

lected and properly fitted corset is
necessary und always has been to a
smart well<sroomed appearance. Tath-
er than injurious, the right corset
tends toward health. °
Several of the Paris houses are ad-
yocating the three-quarter-length coat,
and now and then one sees a polonaise
effect. These coats are made’ with
well-fitted shoulders and rounded waist-
Mne. It is quite remarkable that this
should be so just now, when we are
massing so much fullness in the skirt
between the belt and knees, but it
only goes to show the wide variety
we are to enjoy this spring and summer
A Word on Skirts
Skirts continue short and full.
Many of the houses are emphasizing
the favor shown by them for the crin-
oline since the first whisper of full
skirts began to circulate, and many
are using interesting methods of ex-
tending the skirts; among these are
reeds, featherbone, and even hair-
cloth stiffeningsy. In many instances
“the reeds are graceful and becoming,
but, as a rule, the effect is extremely
awkward, as there is no pretense what-
ever of concealing the mediums, and
* they often protrude at unexpected an-
gies, giving a curious, un-beautiful
result. s
In the regulation summer frock and
the dance dress of net, organdy, or
cother of the sheer, dainty fabrics fa-
vored thig year, thé fullness of the
skirt is made decidedly graceful and
youthful by tucks, ribbons, and bias
hands of the same, or a contrasting
material. Often folds of chiffon or net
are attached to the inside of the skirt
of the dance dress giving a soft, bouf-
fant effect which is.pleasing in every
way. ‘Taffeta is unusually effective
with, or as trimming for,’ the pale-
tone frock of organdy or net, fashion-
ing the summer dance dress. In both
iMustrations this week the skirt fs of
taffeta and the effect of the deep
gtuck is well brought out. The first
dress has an underbodice of shadow
Jace and a simple over-drapery of chif-
fon, The short sleeve cap, while it
woncedes to fashion-s sleeveless de-
mand, also makes a concession to mod-
exty, The second frock shows the
combination of net and taffeta. Aside
from belng especially pretty, its combi-
ation is practical, as net wears prac-
tically well and lends itself, to almost
any fashion of draping.
Ribbons and Ruchings
Pleatings and ruchings of all widths
and Yashions are still favored trim-
miugs for both street and house frocks.
Narrow black velvet ribbon is most
effective and easily applied. On some
of the imported models cordings, pip-
Ings, and ruchings appear in most un*
expected places, One cannot fail to
see thaf hand work, and individual

MOREHOUSE COLLEGE.
Atlanta, Ga., March 22.—The -quar-
tette gave a concert at Newnan, Ga.,
last Monday night.
Mr. K. D. Reddick of the college
class ’11, now field Sunday school
worker of this state, spoke to the stu-
dent body Friday morning, talking of
the needs of the Sunday school.
The Model Association, under the
auspices of the ¥Y. M. C. A. had as-its
speaker Sunday afternoon, Mr. J. Clif-
ton Smith of the sentor college class.
His theme was the “Model Man.”
‘The annual athletic concert which
was held in Sale Hall chapel last Fri-
day evening was a rare treat for all
who were present. The programme
consisted of music by the orchestra
and glee club, violin and vocal solos
and readings. Miss Angelo Edwards,
of Atlanta University, did some ex-
cellent reading. -The orchestra's
crowning piece was “Aida” (Fan-
tasie) by Verdie. s
The triangular inter-collegiate de-
bate between Moorehouse, Talladega
and Knoxville will occur the night of
April 14th.
In a long and uninteresting game
Morehouse lost to Morrisbrown in a
one-sided contest. by the score of 18 to
% Kennedy pitched for Morehouse
and pitched a fair came, but received
wretched support. Wiley started for
Morris Brown and was hit freely by
the Tigers until the fifth when he was
replaced by Williams. Morris Brown
played the game well. Both teams
scored eleven hits each.
Batteries: Wiley, Williams. Barn-
ard and Addison; Kennedy, Engram,
Fisher and Tompkins; umpire, Red-
ding.

AMONG TH MASONS
Dr. Machey’s definition of the duty
of 2 Mason Is so clear and admirable
that we advise our readers to men
orize and abide by it: “It requires of
him honesty in contracts, sincerity in
athrming, simplicity In bargaining ard
faithfulne~ in performing. To sleep
little and to study much; to learn that
hie may be able te doz and thee to
io honestly and vigorously whatever
the good of his fellows, his communt-
ty and mankind requires. are the du
ties of every Mason.” If there is ex-
tant 2 more comprehensive statement
of 2 Mason's gluties. in a short form
we should like to see it
se
. Too Much Selfishness
If there ix anything that Masonry
teaches it ix to be frank and open
with our lrethren. It means that if
you have anything to say to a brother,
yo ard xay it to his face. The great-
est fault te be found with the fra-
ternity to-day lies in the fact that we
are brothers In name only. We do
a good deal of moralizing about the
rights of onr fellow men and our re-
Joicement over the welfare of each
ether. but when we hear a good deal
of the’ talk which goes around we
wonder where it all comes in. You
just Iet x man in the Masonic fra-
ternity prosper and get to the front
and it will not be long until you hear
all kinds of things said about him by
those who have promised to strength-
en and support. And it does not stop
there. Mis fanlts are heralded to the
four quarters and every effort made
to pull him down to the common level.
The Masonic fraternity will never he-
come the powerful factor that it should
until some of the selfishness of its
members ix tamed and there follows
2 greater community of interests.—Il-
Jinois Freemason.
ose
At is'better to turn out one real sood
Mason during the year than half a
hundred of the too common parodies
on the noble old name. Make men in-
to Masons that you will point to with
pride ten sears from now and you
will make Masons that will point with
pride to you and tell men they were
made Masons durifz your administra-
tion.—Lo~ Angeles Freemason.

Lessons of the Lodge
Tt seenrs to me that one of the great-
est penalties of the city is solitude,
Thousands and tens of thousands pass)
on the streets but they are all strang-
ern. Hearts may ache with sorrow
or swell with joy o aepe—but the
erawd’ passes on. All the tragedy of
Yhe world may burden the soul. but
the crowd knows it not or heeds it
not—and xoes on its way. The indivi-
dual is a new Selkirk. alone in the
midst of a vast sea of humanity.
One comes to the Masonic lodge and
all is changed. The hurry and worry
of life is eased. One finds his vision
shifted from the grimuess of the real
‘to the contemplation of the ideal.

Those who never lift up thelr eyes
muy never see the celestial city. With-
out ideals life becomes a phantasm
of sordid money changers in the Tem.
ple, hollow-eyed hunted men crouch-
ing over the machines, toilers in the
fields with the curse of Adam dulling
their faces and shriveling their souls,
I am sorry that the story of the
ages is the story of the exploitations
of man hy bis brother man. If the
teachings of Masonry could universally
be applied this would not be so. . I love
the pocttry of the Masonic ritual» I
Tespect its antiquity and honor its se-
erets—but more than all these things
T find in Masonry the mighty appeal
of universal brotherhood.
It fs often charged against Mason-
ty 2s agalnst other seeret and fraternal
;orders that it does not represent the
Spirit of real democracy, that from its
tice Masonry is exclusive and un-
jPemocratic, It may he said in reply
|thiat the ‘most marked tendency of wan-
kind is to associate In groups. This is
true in school, in college and ia aasi
Hess and -social life. Obviously one
muy not become a citizen of the worid
in the sense that he Is the intimate of
all men. Time is too fleeting and the
[task is too great. Hence it ix natural
‘that for his closer associates he ona
those whose ways of life and thought
tre most congenial to his own. It
then becomes a matter of the attitude
‘of the lodge or fraternity or associa-|
tion toward the world. Does it teach
exclusiveness and lack of sympathy
with the world, are irs doctrines for
the henefit of its votaries alone, or
does it teach the great universality
of life and the duty of all men to-
ward each other? I do not believe
that any man who has received the
rights and benefits of Masonry will
be in doubt as to the answer.—Masonic
Trestle Board. |

After the flowers have faded how
we miss them! Do we always give
them part of our heart as they bloom
for us? Were we not sometimes care-
Jess and pass them coldly by? And,
so, too, do we always touch hands on
our journey here as we should and
keep a corner in our memory for those
we have met pleasantly, and admired
and who contribute to our friendship?
Not only dv the flowers and trees die,
but our loved ones, dear ones and
friends lie down to rest; go way ont
of sight, but we can keep our souls
full of sweet memories for them, Why
not?—Tennessee Freemasoh.

Every Mason should remember that
he helongs to a universal order, com-
posed of men of all religious creeds
and political opinions whose grand pur-
pose is a combined purpose to elevate
humanity, and make men better and

The Jackson element of the Republican party in this state is fighting desperately for dear life. They are on the defensive and are using every effort in their endeavor to convince the people that they are right. Their methods are too crude and clumsy and based not upon facts. In a circular got out by them some time ago they asserted that an attempt was made to put Chairman Johnson out of the committee meeting in Macon but he begged to remain on the platoform. Those who were present can refute this. A thought came to them afterward. They decided that it would never do to say that the chairman was ordered out and not the secretary; also; therefore, during this week they sent out another circular stating that the secretary was ordered out too, but he "begged to be allowed to remain on the platform as a spectator." Mr. Jackson signed this circular "sincerely yours". The members of the committee cannot accept it "sincerely" and Mr. Jackson could not have read the circular before it was sent out. He is reputed to be a descendant of a proud Southerner, who should not delve in that kind of policies. With thinking men, Mr. Jackson is not helping his cause nor increasing his standard as a safe leader.
In politics as in other avenues, we can have our differences without being enemies.
It is claimed that Chairman Hillis of the National Committee, has endorsed the Jackson portion in this state. If this is true, the National Chairman has shown his utter unfitness for the position he holds and is a poor apology for a politician. Matters not what opinion he may have, one who is a leader will never livelug it until at the proper time, and too after both evidences have been sifted. Mr. Hilles represents the Taft element in politics. He is gasping for life which will be extinct when the National Convention meets in June.
Some men are so easily led by the promise of a few dollars. It will cause them to betray their best friends.
Four years ago Capt. W. D. Armstrong was elected chairman, Mr. L. E. Williams, vice-chairman, and Mr. W. S. Scott, secretary of the Republican organization of this county. The death of Capt Armstrong elevates Mr. Williams to the chairman-ship which he is to retain until the convention convenes.
The turning of affairs in Mexico looks ominous for Uncle Sam. Many of the Mexicans are resenting, as they put it, the invasion of their country by United States troops and it may be but a question of time before all of them unite against the invasion as they would term it.
An honest man would not live in a house and refuse to pay the rent simply because he had rented it for a month, nor would an honest man refuse to pay for the bread and meat which he had eaten and enjoyed on the same pretext. And neither will an honest man receive a paper regularly every week and read it and then refuse to pay for it on some silly pretext and force the publisher to take legal steps to collect what is justly due. When a subscriber wishes a paper stopped all he has to do is to pay the amount due on the subscription and request the publisher to discontinue the paper and this will soon be done. But it is not right to receive a paper and refuse to pay for it and even sometimes brag about beating the publisher out of his hard earned money. Some of our readers need to think on these lines.—American Baptist.
The "Battle of Statesboro," is green in the minds of many of us. It will be remembered that troops were sent to Statesboro to guard the jail and court house where Cato and Reid, two colored men, were being tried for murder, but who were spirited away
and lynched despite the armed body of soldiers. An echo of it is heard in the annexed article taken from the Hawkeye, under the head, "Man who put State Militia to Bad in Town." "Mr. B. L. Robertson, of Hubert Ga., was in town one day this week. Mr. Robertson was the man who led the way through two military companies with drawn bayonets at 'The Battle of Statesboro.' This was the occasion of the lynching of the Negroes, Cato and Reid, for the murder of the Hodges family.
The military were packed up a broad stairway leading to the upper floor of the court room where the trial of the Negroes was in progress, they had drawn bayonets, a citizen walked up with a rope and said: "All we need is a leader to storm that stairway? No quicker said than done. Robertson grabbed the rope and said: 'Boys, follow me.' He threw himself against the first line of soldiers; they were thrown back against the second line, then it was when the balance of the crowd joined and the Negroes were taken in less time than it takes to tell about it and the entire state militia was put to rout."
Anent the passage of the segregation in St. Louis, Mo., the New York World, under the caption "For a Negro Ghetto" says:
What can be done in the way of stirring up race prejudice is shown by the success of the real estate interests of St. Louis in carrying by popular vote measures providing for the segregation of Negroes. The population of that city in 1910 was 687,000, the Negroes numbering less than 44,000. With a total poll of 130,000 at the election of 1912, only 69,00 voters divided on this question Tuesday—52,000 to 17,000.
Of the ordinances carried, one prohibits the Negroes or whites from residing in blocks occupied entirely by the opposite race. The others make the same restrictions upon blocks in which 75 per cent of the residents are of one race. Obviously the purpose of these enactments is to establish a geographical color line, regardless of personality and property rights, which no black man can pass. If sustained, they will embody in law restrictions hitherto enforced only by the will of individuals at their own cost and never to the injury of anybody else.
After a defeat or two in the state courts, Baltimore is trying this experiment. In Washington a similar enterprise is under way without legal sanction. San Francisco attempted the same thing with reference to the Chinese and was halted by the Federal Judge. But while the United States Supreme Court has ruled on grandfather constitutions, the new slavery of peonage and Jim Crow sleeping and dining cars, it has not yet reached a case of segregation.
The St. Louis ordinances are said in their preamble to be "for the prevention of ill-feeling and conflict between the races." They might more truthfully be described as intended to promote hatred and difficulty and to deprive black men of property, liberty and hope.
Georgia has a congressman who boasts of the fact that he has never shaken the hand of a Negro. A great accomplishment of which to boast. This denotes him a big man with some of his constituents Georgia has another congressman, who, a few days after he was sworn in, introduced a Jim Crow bill for the District of Columbia. This congressman cares not a straw about the more weighty questions; nothing is more menacing in his mind, to the best welfare of this country than the present street car and marriage laws of the District of Columbia. He is determined to have a Jim Crow law in the District. He showed his great statesmanship the other day when he refused to meet a delegation of colored men who called on the committee of which he is a part to protest against the passage of such an iniquitous bill. Men of his like are the ones who are retarding the progress of this fair southland of ours. Their minds are eternally on "how to keep the Negro down."
The various K. of P. Lodges and companies of the uniform rank will assemble at Gwinnett and West Broad streets at 1 o'clock, p. m., where the line of march will be formed, and proceed to the Second A. B. Church, Green square, where the thanksgiving service will be held.

Bank and Boot-black
We would not think of closing this letter without giving you the benefit of some first hand knowledge which we came in possession of a few days since, regarding a banker and a boot black. The banker in question gave the boot black in question to understand the importance of saving his money and at some future date going into business for himself and making a man of himself worth while. The boot black began to save by opening up an account with this Negro bank, which savings amounted to, in very short time, forty odd dollars. One day this week the boot black came in and intelligently made out a check for thirty-five dollars and presented it to the Negro cashier, who, on demand, handed out the window to him the amount the check called for. About this time the president of the bank, who had shown his interest in the boy, came into the cashier's apartment to ascertain from the boy why he was going to spread his savings in a foolish way after having made
THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE
such a good start? The boy looked the president squarely in the face and informed him that he had just closed a deal which made him (the boot black) the proprietor of one of the best boot black stands on West Broad street. While the bank president was congratulating the boy of his ability to close such a profitable deal without asking the aid of any one, the boy said, "I have my eye on one or two others which I will close as soon as I can save up a little more cash." Things like these are those for which the Negro Business League stands which meets again at its headquarters. Wednesday evening April 5th, Wage Earners Bank building, corner Alice and West Broad streets. Come early and bring a friend.
Realizing that the perpetuity of our institution depends upon the continued influx of new blood, and feeling that the time is ripe for special effort to be made on our part for the increase of our membership, by reason of the fact that the panic is off and the depression in business has disappeared, now, therefore, I.

Deputy Grand Worthy Counsellors will take notice that the fee for the organization of new courts during this booster campaign will be $1.50, not including medical examination. Application blanks free. Medical blanks twenty-five (25) cents per dozen.
Given under our hand and seal this 9th day of February, 1916.

IN MEMORIAM
In memory of our dear mother, who departed this life March 15. 1914.
Dearest mother may we never
Cease to love and comfort give;
May our lot be never to sever.
Grow in goodness, happy live.
Twix mother there is a silken tie,
That binds, unseen, 'neath sunlit sky,
When hearts are gay and bright the eye
When pleasure's words are spoken.
But mother when comes grief, distress
and pain.
Behold the silver chain is broken;
Whose links unfortune words are
spoken.
And sorrow leaves unbroken.
Farewell mother, may each path lead
thee

In sad but loving memory of our father, David Alexander Brinson, who fell asleep twelve years ago today. He was a devoted husband, a loving and good father.
He was firm and strict but kind.
Always jolly and full of sunshine;
He was a dear father kind and true.
Was large of heart and broad of view;
He left us full twelve years ago.
It was the year nineteen hundred-four.
Yet it seemed but yesterday.
Since our dear father went away;
We have missed his presence every day.
He was willing to go and could not stay.
He left on a bright, beautiful Sunday, When he said his last "good-bye;" To wife and children on their way, To meet him in glory beyond the sky. When he heard his Saviour's call, With a smile he said "I must go;" "Good-bye friends, good-bye all,
"Dear wife and children, do not cry."
How many sad partings we meet on life's shore.
Yet there is a country where friends part no more;
There from those who love us, no more will we roam.
No more sad farewells when we all meet home.
There death cannot enter to spread his alarm,
And our dear ones of earth are not torn from our arms;
Why should these brief partings bring tears to our eyes?
We'll soon be united and dwell in the skies.

who departed this life March 26, 1915
Dear as thou wert, and justly dear,
We would not weep for thee:
One thought shall check the starting
tear.
It is, that thou art free.
And thus shall faith's consoling power:
The tears of love restrain;
Oh, who that saw thy parting hour.
Could wish thee here again?
Triumphant in thy closing eye,
The hope of glory shone;
Joy breathed in thy expiring sigh.
To think the race was run.
Gently thy passing spirit fled,
Sustained by grace divine;
Oh, may such grace on us be shed,
And make our end like thine.

If you awake in the morning with a bad taste in your mouth, a dull buzzing in the ears, and a dry hacking cough, that indicates that there's some substance or accumulation irritating the mucus membrane of the throat or lungs. If the above conditions are present you may be aware that there is some congested condition of the system, which demands your immediate attention. If the lungs' tissues are strained by coughing, some delicate blood vessel may be ruptured, thus causing a hemorrhage, the same resulting in death. Be prudent and buy a bottle of "N. P." and tell your friends of its good results. It only costs you fifty cents at the Savannah Pharmacy.
MARVEL-WILLIAMS BOUT NEXT TUESDAY NIGHT
A Large Crowd Will Doubtless Witness the Affair at Pekin Theatre
The contest between the masked Marvel and Lou Williams which was scheduled for last Tuesday night at the Pekin Theatre was postponed until Tuesday night of next week. March 28th, on account of the failure of the Marvel to arrive here on time from New York. Promoter Jennings, therefore, had to change the date of this classy boxing contest. The change, however, will be of much benefit to both contestants and assures the public of these two fast middle weights being in top notch condition for the fight.
THE BALL IS IN THE MOUTH.
The Marvel arrived in the city Wednesday and immediately began getting in trim for the fight. His appearance on the streets, wearing the mask, has attracted wide attention and no doubt the curiosity of seeing him go about at all times with the thin black cover on his face will cause many to witness the bout, who otherwise might pass it up. The Marvel is working out at the Pekin every afternoon from three to four o'clock and his work has been the occasion of much favorable comment. He is evidently in excellent trim and is going through a stiff workouts with Ike Griffin, the popular local welterweight. After witnessing him work for a couple of rounds, it is readily seen how he has put many of the middle weights to sleep in Germany, France, England and Canada. He hails from Bremen, Germany, and as yet has not learned to sneak the English language, his wants being made known to Manager Jennings through an interpreter who acts as his manager Lou Williams, who has landed the knockout pounch on no less than four of his opponents in the past fourteen months, is, of course, the idol of the local fans and when he steps in the ring Tuesday night his many admirers, while they expect a tough scrap, are looking for him to have one of his
sleep producers make the Marvel do the "Rip Van Winkle" stunt for the count. Williams is in tip top shape and with his sparring partner Kid Moore, he is priming himself perfectly every afternoon from 2 to 3 o'clock at the Pekin theatre. The promoter extends a cordial invitation to the public to witness the work out of these boys. Admission is free and you can get a good line on the scrap by looking these classy fighters over during their training hours.
Aside from the main bout, there will be several preliminaries one' being between Kid Moore and Barbershop Williams. These boys have an old score to settle and a crack-a-jack fight is looked for between them. The fight Tuesday night will start about 9 o'clock with the main bout coming off at 10:00 o'clock. The price of admission will be 50 cents. and one dollar.

POLITICAL GOSSIP FROM WASHINGTON
Washington, Dr. C.—"Nebraska can be depended upon to fall in line and support the next Republican national candidate," said a well-known midwest congressman, who is in close touch with the situation in that state. "Not only are the people of that state turning to the Republican party at this time on account of the national issues, but the friends and supporters of Bryan, and there are many of these, are going to help us rebuke the administration of Woodrow Wilson. Bryan's close friends in Nebraska do not think he has been accorded fair treatment at the hands of the present administration, and without any fuss or feathers they are getting ready to 'throw the books in' at the coming election in November."
Life, according to the White House procedure, is just one blame "crisis" after another.
The great flow of freight now is from America to Europe. Within two months after peace is declared the heavy freight traffic will be westward across the Atlantic.
Truth from a Democrat
Like a thunder clap out of a clear sky came the speech of Senator Newlands, (Democrat) of Nevada, declaring that the industrial depression was contemporaneous with Democratic legislation regarding the tariff, banking, and trade, and that it was the European war that saved the country from the business depression into which the country was thrown. Democratic publicity agents and Democratic press have been studiously endeavoring to conceal the real facts and to give the impression that the industrial stagnation was due to the war, and that our present prosperity
character, independent of beneficial war influence. Senator Newlands evidently has more regard for his future reputation as a state-man than have most of the Democratic leaders. He says: ] "It would not do to charge this depression to the European war, first, because that war though injurious to our production and trade in its inception has since become a stimulant to production and export, and, second, because the commencement of the depression antedates the European war and was contemporaneous with our legislation regarding the tariff, banking, and trade."
This statement of Senator Newlands will be published in every Republican newspaper and quoted by every Republican speaker in the campaign which is now impending.
Billy Sunday is quoted as saying he does not care if the whole presidential cabinet resigns. At the rate they are going Mr. Wilson is apt to be "the lonely man in the White House," as his publicity agent once termed him, in very truth.
New England manufacturers estimate that $40,000,000 of foreign shoe orders have been placed in this country since the outbreak of the European war, an energetic young man in charge.
A year ago President Wilson declared we have an adequate army. That was after we had been vexed by Mexico for more than two years and after the sinking of the Lusitania. Now he says "I have not even enough men to keep bandits from raiding the United States territory." If one of your students at Princeton had been as slow learning as you have been, he would have been given a dismissal at the end of the first semester.
Several months ago an organization known as the Progressive Republican Union opened national headquarters in Washington with an enterprising ad energetic young man in charge. The headquarters have recently been closed, which may be taken as a pretty decisive demonstration that there is no sentiment this year for any hyphenated Republican movement. Men who believe in the broad fundamental principles of the party are working together for the return of the party to control of national policies and only a very few are disposed to quarrel over minor issues. Progressives are not asked to abandon their progressive principles. No one has aright to make such demand. All who prefer Republican principles and constructive administration to Democratic vacillation, broken promises and maladministration are uniting under the Republican banner.
"Here we have been in session for six weeks and still nothing has been done," said a western member of Congress in the House lobby. "I am told by some of my Democratic friends that notwithstanding what the President has said about hurrying the appropriation bills, the policy of delay is to be continued and that it is the plan of the administration to hold
back both the army and navy appropriation bills for six or eight weeks yet and to continue hearings on the same, until the President and his advisors think the proper moment has arrived to try and put over the administration preparedness program."
ATLANTA UNIVERSITY NOTES
Among recent visitors have been Mrs. Samuel M. Crothers of Cambridge, Mass., and Dr. George H. Gutterson of Boston. Mrs. Crothers is the wife of the pastor of the First Parish Church in Cambridge, which President Elliot attends. Dr. Crothers was for many years a member of the board of trustees of Atlanta University and has always been a consistent champion of the colored people. He was especially active last fall when the fight was on against the production of "The Birth of a Nation" in the Boston theatres.
Rev. George H. Gutterson, D. D., secretary of the American Missionary Association, spent Tuesday at Atlanta University. He gave a rousing talk at morning chapel. He referred to the universal desire for power, and illustrated the wonderful progress mankind his made in this direction by study of electricity and of chemistry. But the power of greatest importance is power of character, which is within reach of everyone, character, strong, true, red blooded and courageous is the quality needed by all to acquire the power most worth while
Atlanta. University was victorious in the second baseball game of the season, playing with Clark on the Clark field. The Crimson and Gray come first to the bat and scored four in the first lining, when the Clark turn came they found the ball, but snappy team work saved the A. U. team from danger. The final score was 13 to 2 in favor of A. U. The students enjoyed an impromptu social that evening in celebration of the victory.

Lesson XII.—First Quarter, For March 19, 1916.
THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES.
Text of the Lesson, Acts viii, 4-17.
Memory Verses, 5, 6—Golden Text,
Acts viii, 30, l. c.—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns.
The persecution of the saints, which began with the murder of Stephen, continued under Saul as a leader or at least a very active persecutor, for he is said to have entered every house and committed men and women to prison. The persecution was so great that it is said that all the believers, except the apostles, were scattered abroad through Judea and Samaria, but they went everywhere preaching the word, and thus God made the wrath of man to praise Him (verses 1-4; Ps. 1xxv, 10). Phillip, the second of the seven Spirit filled men who were chosen to serve tables, now comes to the front as a preacher and is the prominent worker in the rest of this chapter. First we see him preaching Christ in the city of Samaria and working miracles, the people giving heed with one accord so that there was great joy in that city, many men and women believing the words of Philip concerning Jesus Christ and the kingdom of God and confessing the same by baptism (verses 5-8, 12).
There was a man in Samaria who had been bewitching and decelving the people by sorcery, drawing people to himself as a great man, but when he saw greater works wrought by Philip he naturally became interested and professed himself a believer and was baptized. But Peter and John, having come from Jerusalem to help in the good work, found him out when he offered them money if they would give him the power of the Holy Spirit (verses 9-25). The gifts of God cannot be bought, nor does a true messenger of Christ ever seek any honor or glory for himself, for the Lord Jesus never sought His own will nor His own glory and told the people that they could not believe unless they sought honor from God only (John v, 30, 44; vl, 38; vill, 50). The Holy Spirit never honors any mere man, but through men honors Jesus Christ.
We must cease from men and see no man save Jesus only (Isa. 11, 22; Mark 1x, 8). When Peter and John had helped the believers in Samaria they also preached the word of the Lord in many Samaritan villages as they journeyed back to Jerusalem (14 to 17 and 25). The Lord Jesus had said before His ascension that when they received the power of the Holy Spirit they would be His witnesses not only in Jerusalem and Samaria, but unto the uttermost part of the earth (Acts 1, 8). The first part was being fulfilled, but some of the ends of the earth have not heard yet after nearly 1,000 years. How great is His patience! In the power of God, unmilest in the words and works of the apostles and evangelists, we have seen something of the interest of heaven in the work of giving the good news to men. We have also seen the ministry of angels in taking Peter and John out of prison and sending them to preach in the temple (chapter v, 19, 20), and now, while Philip is busy in the midst of this great work in Samaria, a messenger from heaven is sent to him to tell him to leave it all and go away down to the desert road from Jerusalem to Gaza, but seemingly without giving any reason as to why he should do this.
Did ever a busy preacher of the gospel receive such a strange command? There did not seem to be any reason or common sense in it, but rather an interference with a great soul saving work. Might not Philip seem justified in saying, as Nehemiah once did, "I am doing a great work, so that I cannot come down?" (Neb. vi. 3). It was an evil spirit who was seeking Nehemiah, but it was the risen Christ who sent His angel to Philip because he saw a man of Ethiopia returning from Jerusalem without having heard the gospel, although the apostles were at Jerusalem. I see two or or three important things here—the necessity of trying the spirits to see whether they are of God (I John iv, 1-3), the necessity of always making plain the way of life in Christ lest some hungry seeking soul may go away without knowing how, to be saved and the necessity of prompt obedience when God's speaks, no matter how unreasonable it may seem to us.
We are glad to read that Philip arose and went (verse 27). If he had any committee to consult he would probably have been hindered; but, like Samuel, he was a man of God and had an ear for God and a willing heart. It is certainly most interesting to see this traveler, this treasurer of the queen of Ethiopia, reading the book of Isalah as he journeyed and to be just at the place which told of a suffering Messiah, which we call Isa. ill, 7, 8, when a stranger approached the chariot, and, hearing the words being read (for he was evidently reading or being read to aloud), he asked, "Understandest thou what thou readest?" Then followed the invitation to Philip to ride and to explain the Scripture, and we see a heart opened to receive Jesus Christ as Saviour and Messiah, a desire and readiness to confess Him in baptism, and a truly happy man went on his way rejoicing, having found in his chariot, by the word of God, what he had not found in Jerusalem. The Spirit of the Lord, who controlled Philip (verses 29, 39), carried him to Azotus, and he went on preaching everywhere.
SUNDAY SCHOOL.
Lesson XIII.—First Quarter, For March 26, 1916.
Text of the Lesson, Rev. vii, 9-17, Quarterly Review—Golden Text, Rev vii, 16, 17—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns.
LESSON I.—The Ascending Lord, Acts 1, 1-14. Golden Text, Eph. iv, 8, "When He ascended on high He led captivity captive and gave gifts unto men." During the forty days after His resurrection, when He showed himself alive many times to His disciples, He always spoke of the Kingdom of God which He will surely set up on earth with Israel as a center when He shall come again in His glory. Now we are to witness to Him by the Holy Spirit.
LESSON 11.—The Coming of the Holy Spirit, Acts 11, 1-13. Golden Text, I Cor. iii, 16, "Know ye not that ye are a temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?" He said that when He reached home He would send the Holy Spirit, who would bring to their remembrance all that He had ever said to them and take of His things and show them unto them and show them things to come and guide them into all truth.
LESSON III.—Peter's sermon at Pentecost, Acts II, 14-17. Golden Text. Acts II, 21. "Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved." We wait for the coming of the kingdom which was postponed because rejected, the Spirit has come to testify of a risen living Christ at God's right hand and to gather unto Him all the "whoseovers" who are willing to receive Him, follow Him and suffer with Him.
LESSON IV.—The Spirit of Life, Rom. vill, 12-30. Golden Text. Rom. vill, 14. "As many as are led by the Spirit of God these are sons of God." This is the great Spirit chapter indorsing the necessity of the new birth and teaching that all such are children and heirs of God and can never be separated from His love—that the Father, Son and Spirit are all for us and that in Christ all things are freely ours.
LESSON V.—The Lame Man Leaping,
Acts III, 1-12. Golden Text, Acts III, 6,
"Peter said, Silver and gold have
lone, but what I have, that give
lue. In the name of Jesus Christ of
Nazareth, walk." This man, over forty
years of age, who had never walked
a step in all his life, is seen, by all
who knew him to be incurable, walking
and leaping and praising God, and
Peter testified that this was the work
of the unseen living Christ.
LESSON VI.—The Boldness of Peter and John, Acts iv, 8-21. Golden Text, I Cor. xvl, 13. "Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong." Peter and John, after a night in prison, being brought before the high priest and the council to answer for the healing of this man, do not hesitate to say before the council what they said before the people in the temple that it was the work of Jesus Christ, whom they crucified, who is alive.
LESSON VII.—Humbled and Exalted, Phil. ii. 1-11. Golden Text, II Cor. viii, 9. "Though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor." Despised and rejected of men, but chosen of God and precious, the only Saviour, willing to save proud Pharisees as well as confessed sinners if they would only come to Him.
LESSON VIII.—The Brotherhood at Jerusalem. Acts iv, 32; v, 16. Golden Text, I Pet. 1, 22. "Love one another from the heart fervently." The power of the risen Christ drew the believers close to Him and to each other, at least some of them, and for a time, but soon deceit and murmuring became manifest, and we have still to wait to see a company of believers, however few, continuing with one accord. Whole hearted surrender to God is rare.
LESSON IX.—The seven helpers, Acts vi, 1-7. Golden Text, Gal. vi, 2. "Bear ye one another's burdens and so fulfill the law of Christ." That the apostles might continue in prayer and the ministry of the Word a committee of seven spirit filled men was chosen to attend to murmurers and to see that no one was neglected.
Lesson X.-The death of Stephen. Acts vii, 54; viii, 3. Golden Text, Rev. 11, 10. "Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give the crown of life." Being filled with the Spirit produces, different results; in the case of Peter 3,000 souls from one sermon with persecutions; in the case of Stephen not such manifest results in soul saving and persecuted to death, but he saw heaven opened and Jesus in glory.
Lesson XI.-Heroes and martyrs of faith. Heb. xi, 1; xii, 2. Golden Text. Heb. xii, 1, 2. "Let us run with patience the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus." The end of chapter x and the beginning of chapter xii set before us the great need of faith and patience; then in chapter xi we have this great list of those who were notable illustrations of faith and patience, all dying in faith and still waiting for the kingdom.
Lesson XII—Philip and the Ethiopian, Acts viii, 3-40. Golden Text, Acts viii, 20 l.c., "Understandest thou what thou readest?" Persecution sent out preachers of the Word, and many heard and believed, and there was joy on earth and in heaven. The Lord saw one hungry soul truly seeking, and by an angel and the Holy Spirit and a willing and obedient man He brought him light and sent him on his way refoeling.

The 12th Psalter was then read, music was rendered by Rev. J. S. Jenkins. Rev. J. W. Macklimore, state evangelist of the A. M. E. Church, visited the Union. Rev. W. L. Cash was in to see us. The Union was glad to see them. Prof. J. W. Maxwell, president of Central Park Normal Institute, was elected to represent the Union at the First Congregatioanl Church in its 41th anniversary at 11:30 Sunday April 2nd. Sermonic report was given by Rev. C. P. Perry.
ST. BENEDICTS CHURCH
Rev. Father Mitchell, chancellor of the cathedral, preached last Wednesday an admirable and eloquent sermon at the lenten service. The church was packed to its utmost. The altar during benediction was resplendent with numerous lights and ornaments. Next Wednesday, Rev. Father Mathew, O. S. B., of the Benedictine College, will conduct the evening' service. Every Friday during Lent the stations are held at S p. m. The Stations or
Way of the Cross, is a meditation on the different incidents in the sorrowful journey of our Lord to Mount Calvary. The devotion is very ancient. Tradition says that the blessed Mother each day visited the scenes of the passion of her divine son while she was in Jerusalem. Christians, from the beginning, loved to venerate the sacred road of the passion and death of Christ. The devotion of the Stations grew out of the pilgrimage made to the Holy Land. There is no record of the Stations as we have them now until the 15th century. The Popes attached to this devotion many indulences and extended it to the whole world.
Next Sunday will be the third Sunday in Lent. Gospel, Luke XI:14-28. Christ cast out a dumb devil. His enemies accused Him of casting out devils by Heelzebuh, prince of the devils. Christ defends Himself against them and speaks with such eloquence, wisdom and power that, a woman in the crowd, lifting up her vail, called the mother blessed that had born such a son.
The paschal time for the reception of Easter. Communion has opened on the 1st Sunday in Lent and extends to Trinity Sunday. June 15th. It is the duty of every practical and true christian to receive holy communion at least once a year, and this during paschal time. But zealous and good Catholics make it a holy practice to go to confession and holy communion more frequently, i.e. every month, on first Fridays, and principal feast days of the year. The Catholic Mutual Society will hold its monthly meeting tomorrow after high mass.
ST. MARY'S BAPTIST CHURCH
St. Mary's Baptist Church, Ott and Rockerfellow streets, Rev. R. J. Kelley pastor. Services Sunday at 11 a. m. were largely attended. At 3:30 Sunday school was also largely attended. At night the pastor preached a noble sermon. We ask you to attend our services.

BAPTIST ARRANGEMENT COMMITTEE HOLDS MEETING
The committee on arrangements for the National Baptist Convention, which is to meet in the city this September, met at the residence of Rev. T. J. Goodall, Friday last, with a full attendance. Rev, Wm.-Gray and Rev, A. L. Hamilton sat with the committee. Rev, E. H. Quo was designated as publicity speaker for the committee. Beginning the first Sunday in April and continuing until the middle of May, he is subject to the call of any church or pastor who may feel the need of any aid, by way of information, or otherwise, in raising their donation for convention entertainments.
The week following the first Sunday in April up to and including the second Sunday, was set quart as general campaign week for raising funds. Said campaign to comprehend the entire city and county.
The committee proper, Revs. T. J. Goodall, E. H. Quo, N. M. Clarke, W. Bollvar Davls, N. H. Whitmire, with Revs. Wm. Gray and A. L. Hamilton as associates, was agreed upon as general solicitors.
BUTLER PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
The pastor, Rev. S. T. Redd, preached at both services. At the morning service the text was "But this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forth to those things which are before." At the evening hour the text was "Then his wife said unto him, 'Both thou still retain integrity, curse God and die.'" The Y. S. C. E. topic was "Getting power from our pledge", led by Mr. F. D. Cain. The lesson was very helpful. Order of services: Mid-week service
THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE
Wednesday evening 8 p. m., Sunday school 3 p. m.; preaching 8 p. m. To all of these you are asked to dorship with us.
SECOND SAINT PETER BAPTIST CHURCH
At 11 a. m., Rev. A. Jackson preached from the third chapter of Matthew, 16th verse. His subject was "The baptism of Christ." Baptism at at 11:30 a. m. Communion at 4:30 p. m. Rev Nicholas preached a noble sermon in the afternoon, subject,"What evil hast he done." Rev. I Anderson and Rev. A. Jackson also assisted in the evening services. We were also glad to have deacon Dan Holloway from the Second Baptist Church and other visiting friends with us. B. X. P. U. was largely attended at 7 p. m. At 5:30 p. m., the great theologian, Rev. A. J. James preached. He read for the lesson the 23rd chapter of of St. Luke and choosed for his text the 42nd verse. Prayer meeting Tuesday nights. Brethren exercise Thursday nights.
BETH-EDEN BAPTIST CHURCH
Services were well attended Sunday, and this was a busy day with the pastor. At the morning services he preached from the text Isaiah 60:12, and at night from Heb. 10:21. These sermons were grand and far reaching in effect. Rev. Clarke spoke at the Georgia State College in the afternoon. Our first rally for 1916 came off at night. This rally was different from the others we have had; as the money was supposed to be donated entirely by the members of the two circles instead of climbing in from entertainments and from the public. The Alexander Ellis Circle reported $100.65 and the Beth-Eden Golden Reapers reported $100.00. This was a very close race, and much interest is manifested in the next rally which comes off in June. We desire to burn our mortgage this year and ask our friends to help us do so. The Sunday school has some very beautiful Easter music and hope to have a very large attendance tomorrow. The B. Y. P. U. had a very interesting and helpful meeting Sunday lad by Mr. Ivy Coles. The program was a very excellent one; Mr. John Watson led with the saxophone.
GOOD WILL BAPTIST CHURCH
Good Will Baptist Church located on Gwinnett street, one block west of water works, Rev. W. H. Prince, pastor. On last Sunday the Sunday school met at the usual hour. The lesson was beautifully taught. Lie. R. M. Johnson preached at H o'clock, the service was well attended. Bro. Johnson brought a beautiful message which was enjoyed by all who heard him. On Sunday night the pastor preached a noble sermon from Mark 12:10, text. "The stone that the builders rejected is become the head of the corner." A very large crowd attended these services which were helpful and inspiring. Rev. Prince was at his best and handled his subject in an admiring style. We are always glad to have our friends visit us and help make our meetings intersting.
Brutality at the Bar.
Cross examination by lawyers is much less severe today than it used to be. Sergeant Ballantine once cross examined the defendant in a civil action in England so fiercely that after a quarter of an hour of the ordeal she fell down flat in the witness box and could not be further questioned. Chief Justice Erie, summing up, described Ballantine's cross examination as "an exhibition of brute force which I have never seen before in a court of justice and hope never to see again."
The Crab In the Oyster.
"The little crab found in the oyster," said a dealer, "is not, as supposed by two-thirds of the oyster eaters, the young of the blue crab," but is a distinct species. It is a messmate of and caterer to the wants of the oyster, being, therefore, a benefit instead of a detriment to the latter. In return for the oyster's kindness in protecting it against its enemies the little crab catches and crushes food which in its entire state could not be taken by the oyster. A singular thing in connection with them is that all found inside of the oyster are females. The male of the same variety has a hard shell." -Exchange
The Gordian Knot
When one of Uncle Sam's sailors, a man named Gordon, formerly serving on one of the vessels in a West Indian squadron, was taken to the Naval hospital in Washington he described with grewsome vividness to his companions there his adventure with a shark off one of the islands in the West Indies. "I had jest fell over the bulwark," said the able seaman, "when along comes a big shark an' grabs me by the leg."
"What did ye do then, matey?" asked one of the patients.
"I never disputes none with sharks," said the sailor. "I let him have the leg."
SUNDAY SCHOOL.
Lesson I.—Second Quarter, For April 2, 1916.
THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES.
Text of the Lesson, Acts ix, 1-11, 17-19.
Memory Verses, 17, 18—Golden Text,
I Tim. i, 15—Commentary Prepared
by Rev. D. M. Stearns.
The first two verses of our lesson chapter describe Saul going on in the same spirit as when he consented to the murder of Stephen and kept the ralment of those who stoned him. He is still breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples' of the Lord (what a horribly bad breath from the pit), and he is indoored by Israel's high priest, who was professed God's high priest. The account of his real for the devil is written in five different places—in our lesson chapter and in Acts xxil, xxvi; Gal. i and I Tim. i He confessed that he was a blasphemer and a persecutor; that he was exceedingly mad against the saints, beyond measure persecuting the church of God, shutting up men and women in prison and giving his voice against them when they were put to death and all the time thought that he was right in this, opposing the teaching and the followers of Jesus of Nazareth. He was, as he afterward said, blinded by the god of this world and ignorant of his devices, and it was an exceeding abundant grace that had mercy on him and saved him (II Cor. 11, 11; Iv. 4; I Tim. i, 14).
The day came, when he reached the limit, and God's clock struck its "no further" (Job xxxvili, 11). He was not at a preaching service nor under any so called means of grace, but on his way to imprison and kill more saints and hearing his destination, many in Damascus trembling if they knew of his coming, when suddenly, about noon, he fell to the earth because of a light from heaven above the brightness of the sun which shone upon him, and he heard a voice saying to him in the Hebrew language, "Saul, Saul, why persecuted thou me?" The people who were with him saw the light, but did not hear the words. He not only saw and felt the light and heard the words, but he saw the Lord Jesus (verse 17), who thus condescended to appear to him personally, as He will to the nation at His coming in glory, for it is written, "They shall look upon me whom they have pierced," and they shall say, "Lo, this is our God; we have waited for Him, and He will save us" (Zech. xil. 10: Rev. 1, 7: Isa. xxy, 9).
To Saul's question, "Who art Thou, Lord?" the answer came, "I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest." What an illustration of the assurance that believers are members of His body and that to touch one of His is as touching the apple of His eye! (Eph. v, 20; Zech. ii, S.) Although Saul's natural eyes were blinded by this great light and he remained three days without sight, he received sight such as he never had before. the eyes of his understanding being enlightened, for the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ had shone in (Eph. i, 1S; II Cor. iv, 6). From that hour he was born from above, a child of God, a sinner saved, a rebel surrendered, wholly submitted to Jesus Christ risen from the dead and ascended to heaven. The glory of that light from heaven made him forever blind to all human greatness or righteousness; and now to him to live was Christ (Acts xxil, 11; Phil. i, 21).
With trembling and astonishment he submissively said, "Lord, what wilt thou have me to do?" And thenceforth he was the bondservant of the Lord Jesus Christ. What his communings were those three days without sight or food or drink, and where he went to in Arabia, and his experiences there for three years (Acts 1x, 9; Gal. 1, 15-10) we may perhaps learn from his own lips some day, but this we may be sure of—there was no one worth while to him but Jesus Christ. How wonderful are the words of the Lord to Ananias concerning him. "He is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name, * * * for I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name's sake" (verses 15, 10). Compare chapter xxll, 14-16; xxvl, 16-18, and get a better-grasp of his full commission.
Take to your own hearts, O fellow believer, that these things were written for us and that we, too, may be vessels unto honor, sanctified and meet for the Master's use, prepared unto every good work (II Tim. 11, 21). The Lord had shown Saul, in a vision, during his blindness, a man named Ananias coming in, and putting his hand on him that he might receive his sight (verse 12), and Ananias in person literally fulfilled it, putting his hands on him and saying, "Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus, that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me that thou mightest receive thy sight and be filled with the Holy Ghost." At once he received sight, something like scales falling from his eyes. He arose and was baptized, received meat and was strengthened and preached Christ in the synagogues that He is the Son of God (verses 17-20). He soon began to realize something of the persecution he had made others feel. But perhaps one of the sorest trials was when the disciples at Jerusalem refused to believe that he was a disciple until Barnabas, true son of consolation, persuaded them that he was truly a disciple and had been preaching boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus.

TRYING HARD.
We are trying hard to get it fixed into your mind that %
the Commonwealth Loan and Realty Company has a
broader scope of business than any other corporation in-
to which you can pyrchase shares. We are trying hard
to get you to realize that the Commonwealth will buy pro-
perty for you, or sell your property. Will rent property
to you, or reut your property. WI remodel your home,
or Joan you money on endorsements.; Will collect your
old accounts or tell you whether they can be collected or
not, And then we are trying hard to make you under -
stand-that when you purchase shares, you lawfully be-
come a partner and will be entitled to share equally into
all profits nomatter from what souree they may come.
Come up and let us tell you about the Ten Payment Plan.

We hear much these days about
colored people not patronizing colored

® This is the age of specialized selling methods and the Col.
. ored merchant must “fall in” or “fall out.”
The difference between the business which is “mighty fine”.
and “just so-so” is the difference in merrhandising methods.
‘We can help yon to put your business into the “mighty fine”
class.
