WILL CELEBRATE 47TH ANNIVERSARY
EXCELLENT PROGRAM AT FIRST CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH
Rev. DeMond of Charleston, S. C., to Preach Anniversary Sermon at Morning Service—Platform Service at Night.
The First Congregational Church, Taylor and Habersham streets, will celebrate its forty-seventh anniversary on tomorrow. An excellent program has been arranged for the day's celebration and the church will probably be packed at both morning and evening services.
The principal feature of the celebration will be the anniversary sermon at the eleven o'clock service, which will be delivered by the Rev. Abraham Lincoln DeMond, pastor of Plymouth Congregational Church, Charleston, S. C. Rev. DeMond is one of the most convincing and eloquent speakers in the Congregational pulpit in this part of the country. He is well known here, where he has appeared in the local Congregational pulpit many times. Another feature of the morning service will be the special music which the choir has prepared for this occasion.
At night there will be a platform meeting. Several wellknown speakers will appear on the program and the occasion will be one of much interest to the members of the church and their friends. The First Congregational Church of this city is one of the strongest churches of this connection in the south.

Republican County Convention Called
ENTHUSIASTIC MEETING COUNTY COMMITTEE HELD
County Convention to Meet April 10th
—Militia Districts will Meet on
April 7th—Loyal Taks Made by
Several Present
Enthusiastic Meeting of County Executive Committee Held
As announced in The Tribune last week, a meeting of the Republican Executive Committee of Chatham County was held last Monday for the arranging of time and place for the holding of the County Convention. The meeting was called to order by Chairman L. E. Williams and on account of the absence of the secretary, Mr. J. C. Lindsay was elected to act as such. Rev. W. A. Daughtry offered prayer. It was unanimously decided to call the County Convention on Monday April 10, 1916 at 12 o'clock noon, at the Masonic Temple, west Gwinnett street. The several militia districts will meet on next Friday night, April 7, to elect delegates to the County Convention.
Chairman Williams made a terse statement at the opening of the meeting and loyal talks were made by Mr. F. M. Bell, Mr. L. W. Beasley, Mr. Jake Wright, Rev. W. A. Daughtry Capt. J. C. Simmons and others. The meeting was enthusiastic and all present pledged themselves to support the old line party men and the regular organization. Much interest centers in the militia district meetings to be held next Friday. The city districts will meet at 8 o'clock at night, and the county districts at 12 o'clock in the day.
URBAN LEAGUE TO OBSERVE HEALTH WEEK
At a meeting of the executive board of the Urban League, held Thursday afternoon, it was decided to observe "Health Week", beginning May 14th. The president was empowered to appoint a committee to arrange the programme. The coming of Mr. Eugene Kinckle Jones, executive secretary of the National League, with headquarters at New York, was announced. He will be in the city week after next, and will confer about local activities and conditions. The activities of the league are unabating, and much good is being accomplished.
FREEDMEN'S BANK BOOK HOLDERS. BE WARNED
It is reported that several holders of the defunct Freedmen's Bank books, have been approached and requested to turn over their books for the purpose of having collected for them the amount due. A fee of one dollar is charged. The holders of these books are warned to be careful and not spend their money foolish. Since the failure of the bank Congress has only allowed five payments. No other payments will be made until an appropriation is made by Congress. There is no likelihood of this being done for some years to come.
TO ERECT MONUMENT
Rev. L. G. Jordan, secretary of the Foreign Mission Board, of the National Baptist Convention came to the 'city Monday to meet the Baptist Ministers' Union, in behalf of erecting a monument to Rev. George Lisle, to be unveiled during the 37th annual session of the National Convention, in September. A committee appointed, after a conference with Dr. Jordon, decided to recommend to the Union that they co-operate with the Foreign Mission Board in the undertaking. The location and other details will be arranged by a committee appointed by the Union. Dr. Jordon has recently visited the grave of Geo. Lisle in the West Indies. This Georgia Baptist preacher baptized Andrew Bryant in 1783, who began the work in this city, 133 years ago. Dr. Jordon while here spoke at St. John Baptist Church, at the State Industrial College and in the Second Baptist Church.

1.800 NEGRO TROOPS SENT ACROSS
BORDER TO GUARD
COMMUNICATIONS
Three Battalions of Twenty-Fourth Infantry Reported to Have Left Columbus, Giving Pershing About 7,000 Men—El Paso Reports Villa's Position.
El Paso, Tex., March 2S—Three battalions of the Twenty-fourth United States Infantry, numbering 1,800 men, left Columbus, N. M., to-day, crossed the Mexican border and marched south toward Casas Grandes. The fourth battalion of the regiment will be distributed for border patrol duty at Marfa, Fabens and Presidio.
These reafforcements give Gen Pershing nearly seven thousand troops in Mexico service. The Twenty-fourth Infantry, a Negro regiment, is the only unit of the American army recruited to full war strength. The men are also among the largest physically of any American soldiers. The stalwart Negroes dipped the regimental colors and cheered as they marched over the line. Their destination is unknown, but from the fact that detachments of the Sixth and Sixteenth Regiments, which have been on transport line patrol, have been drawn in closer to Casas Grandes, the presumption is that the Negro soldiers will guard the stretch from Casas Grandes to the border.
The two companies with the regimental colors and staff were first across the line to-day, the other companies of the three battallons following in extended order to avoid the clouds of dust raised by a heavy column.
PYTHIAN PERIOD LAST SUNDAY
The Knights of Pythias and the Courts of Calanthe celebrated Pythian Period day on last Sunday afternoon. The exercises were held at Second Baptist Church and were largely attended. Dr. George N. Stoney of Augusta, Ga., was the principal speaker. Dr. Stoney is a fluent speaker and his efforts on this occasion were indeed masterly. Pharmacy. All the other participants on the programme acquitted themselves admirably.

This will be a joint meeting with the men's organization. All members are requested to be present. Much important business will be transacted. The officers of the auxiliary are Mrs. W. G. Hill, president; Mrs. L. J. Hubert, secretary.
All graduates and under-graduates of Atlanta University are requested to meet at the Congregational Church, Taylor and Habersham streets, immediately after morning service, 12:30 pckclomorroy (Sunday.)
S. A. GRANT, President
Handsome Prizes Being Displayed
TO BE AWARDED WINNERS IN URBAN LEAGUE RACES
Beautiful Silver Loving Cup, Gold, Silver and Bronze Medals and Diamond Lavalier Make Attractive Display in Tribune Window.
No amount of care and expense is being spared by the races committee to make the annual school races the greatest event ever held in the city. This great athletic classic is expected to eclipse the large attendance figures (6,000) of last year.
Over one hundred dollars has been spent in the purchase (from Des-Bouillions, jewelers) of handsome gold silver and bronze medals, handsomely designed and engraved, for the boys' events in the races; beautiful solid gold friendship clasps and brooches for the girls' events, and a beautiful solid gold chain-and-pendant lavalies, with diamond studding, for first prize in ticket selling contest, the second and third prizes in this event being solid gold, handsome embellished brooches
Intense rivalry is being manifested by the nine leading social and fraternal clubs of the city, which are to take part in the races and compete for the beautiful, large silver and bronze loving cup to be given to the club scoring the greatest number of points. All these clubs have organized teams, rooters' clubs and plan to go in for the trophy "hammer and tongs", to win. It is understood that each club plans to bring out its full membership. its friends, families and sweethearts be decked in the club's colors, singing the club songs and yelling the club's yells, to the park and pull for its favorites on the field while they match their strength, prowess and speed with the strong and swift of other clubs. Designated space will be allowed to each of the clubs and schools on the grounds, so that each contingent may remain intact.
Each club is already chjiming victory, and the races bid fair to transcend any similar previous occasion.
Judges and officials have been selected and their names will be published next week. A handsome souvenir programme, scheduling the events, designating the contestants by name, number and weight, naming the colors and other insignia of the various clubs and schools; the names of the races, officials and other valuable information concerning the Urban League, under whose auspices the reces will be run, is being prepared.
The ticket selling contest will be "warmer" this year. The committee realizing the importance of this feature of the work, has secured as a first prize, a beautiful present of which any one would feel proud. It is planned that this prize as well as the second and third, will go to the individuals (in order) who sell the first, second and third largest number of tickets. More information on this interesting item will be published very early. Those handsome prizes came from the celebrated DesBouldis house on Broughton street and hence are guaranteed to be the very best in material, design, workmanship and style.
The various sub-committees are at work on the many details of music, advertising, etc., connected with staging the races, and each week information will be given of their work.
Probably what will be one of the most interesting features of "Races Day" this year will be the production of a tableaux and dance entitled "The Pageant of the Nations," to be exhibited by twelve young ladies of the younger set. With becoming costumes and pretty music, this feature is expected to prove unusually attractive.
The general purpose of the races, however, must not be lost sight of. The Urban League, pursuant to its general object of uplift, promotes these races with a view of providing clean and wholesome sport and diversion for the young and old folks of the city. These occasions are intended to stimulate a healthy physical and mental development, as well as to encourage true sportsmanlike, competition on the field of athletics. The revenue from the races goes into, the general fund of the league to be administered and employed in the work of social service.
The citizens will most likely make May 12th a day of general festivities and turn out in large numbers to enjoy the greatest opportunity of the year to exercise one's lungs and limbs to the utmost. Any general information desired
NUMBER 21
FISK SINGERS HERE TUESDAY
WILL APPEAR AT F. A. B. CHURCH,
FRANKLIN SQUARE
Famous Singers Who Recently Sang
Before President Woodrow Wilson
Will Probably be Greeted with Packed
House.
Local lovers of genuinely beautiful and highly entertaining music will have one of the rarest privileges of recent years when the Fisk Jubilee Singers appear here Tuesday night. A more celebrated aggregation of Negro singers than these has not been heard in this city in the past score or more years and the opportunity of listening to the excellent programme rendered by this highly trained sextet will undoubtedly be accepted by as many persons as the large and historic edifice of the First African Baptist Church, Franklin square, can accommodate.
These celebrated singers come here under the joint auspices of the First African Baptist Church and the First Congregational Church. They are, of course, touring the country in the interest of Fisk University; Nashville, Tenn. Among the noted persons they have recently sung before was President Woodrow Wilson who highly commended them for their excellent entertainment.
Everyone of the sextet has received special training either at the musical department of Fisk or at some other well known musical conservatory. The programme they will render will not only be varied in character but highly entertaining in every respect, and their rendition of the Negro folk music will probably be the most thorough ever heard here.
Both of the churches directly interested in the concert of Tuesday night have been very energetic in selling tickets for the event and already nearly a thousand tickets have found their way into the hands of purchasers. The concert will begin at 8:30 o'clock and the price of admission is 25 cents.
RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY, PURCHASED BY NEX YORK LADY
Mr. G. H. Bowen the leading Negro real estate man of the city, has just closed a deal with Mrs. Katie A. Lewis of New York City for some very desirable residential property located at 911 Jefferson street and the adjoining house, which fronts on the lane. The consideration was more than $2,000 and was a cash transaction. The property was turned over to Mr. Bowen to rent, and he has already rented the lane house. The main houses will be put in first class condition and will be ready for occupancy within ten days. Thus passes into the hands of the Negro gone more desirable property that would not have come but for a wide-a-wake Negro real estate man on the job.
ODD FELLOWS ARRANGING FOR THANKSGIVING
The local lodges of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows are arranging for their annual celebration of thanksgiving day which is usually held on the second Sunday in May. The committee in charge of the arrangement met on last Wednesday night and selected Mr. W. H. Burgess as orator of the day and Mr. Robert Edmondson as master of ceremonies. Mr. W. E. Searles was elected chairman of the committee and, Mrs. F. A. Merchison secretary. Mr. L. W. Beasley will act as chief marshal.
DELIGHTFUL HOUSE WARMING
On last Thursday night Mr. and Mrs. Robert Mason gave a very delightful house warming reception. The occasion was the celebration of their new home that has just been erected at 1508 Reynolds street. The house is a two story frame structure and very conveniently appointed. It is equipped with all the latest improvements and is one of the prettiest homes in that section of the city owned by Negroes. The christening ceremonies were conducted by Rev. R. H. Singleton, pastor of St. Philip A. M. E. Church, West Broad street. Quite a number of guests were present and many useful presents were received.
may be had by calling upon J. H. Butler, general director of the races, at The Tribune office.

Smart Fashion Features Made For Economy
Fascinating Little Touches used in Remodeling Last Season's Frock
POSSIBILITIES IN SLEEEVES
New York, March 22.—For those of us who have, as it were, stacks and stacks of passe frocks to be remodeled, this should prove a banner season. Fashion has been very lenient with our little economies for several seasons past, but this spring, whether it is the war, with its consequent deprivations to many, which has turned her in this direction, or just because she fancies evolving the odd little conceptions and combinations one sees on every side, certain it is that economy just now is being made very easy and very fascinating.
Girdles, Bretelles and Jumpers
Let us suppose for instance, that one has a dark blue serge dress of last season. It may not be wor to a great extent, but nevertheless it needs something to make it look more up to date. We may add a deep skirt yoke and a high girdle, with perhaps a bretelle over each shoulder, of dark satin or
© MCCALL
The Sport Skirt and Jabot Blouse moire. Cuffs and collars, too, add greatly to the effect. When cleverly done, the frock has none of the madeover appearance it would have had some seasons back, but is a delightfully chic little costume in the new deep waist effect, for shopping and general day time wear. Coattee-peplums, quillings, bands and insets of contrasting material may work wonders, too, with slightly worn frocks, suits, and blouses. Should a hem be slightly frayed or worn, whether it be the lower edge of blouse or skirt, one of the those stiff, quaint little quillings, or a contrasting band may be set on to cover it most attractively. Around the bottom of the sleeve, which has not just the most becoming curve or finish, a double ruffle of picot edged Feorgette, banded through the middle with a narrow black velvet ribbon may be added, the ribbon being drawn as tightly as resired and tied in a perky little bow. Deep cuffs of satin or taffeta with a matching collar may be attached to a blouse which has an unbecoming or old-fashioned sleeve, or an ugly neck finish. When these deep cuffs are used, the sleeve, if sufficiently full, may be gathered into the cuff, thereby lending another modish touch, for much fullness is noticed in the new sleeves. Sleeves Offer Interesting Possibilities
Long, short and three-quarter length sleeves will be worn this spring and summer. There is still a strong tendency to the transparent effect of the fall and winter. That this should be so for summer is quite logical. Net is nearly as popular for sleeves and bodices as chiffon and Georgette, and it wears equally as well. Many a pretty taffeta or satin frock is being made with net sleeves and upper bodice, and many a last season's taffeta or satin dress is being remodeled in this way.
Blue serge naturally takes to black, blue faille combines effectively with black, many shades of gray, the greenish, copper stones, orange, terra-cotta and similar shades. These dark combinations of course are correct for the street; for the indoor dress or afternoon gown, one may allow the color fancy a little freer rein. There are some wonderfully vivid touches of color brought in now and then in a somber frock, quilt transforming it. As a
general rule, however, pale tones will predominate this season. This is owing to the present condition of the dye market; naturally pastel colored fabrics require much less dye than deep shades. It is most timely that this should happen in the summer season when we are all of us inclined toward white, pale pinks, blues, mauves, and lavenders which are so particularly fascinating this season. By fall, if the war is not at an end, perhaps we shall all take to white, but we will not anticipate anything so extravagant unless we may take the present vogue of white shoes and spats as forerunners.
A Word About Shoes
While speaking about shoes, it might be well to say a word or two about the new pumps for the dainty, airy frocks of the girl of spring and summer, 1916. She will wear the old time colonial pump again with its accompanying buckles. And these buckles will be real buckles, not mere pretenses,
@ MCCALL
A Smart use of Blocked Broadeloath some of them measure as much as two and one-half inches across. They range from the conservative leather covered buckle to the glittering novelty in rhinestones or colored semi-precious jewels.
The high white shoes with white stitching, heel and sole will be a general favorite for the simple afternoon dress or the white flannel or serge suit. A pair of sport shoes should be found in every wardrobe, and for those who enjoy skating, a pair of skating shoes may also be included in the spring outfit, for it is promised that the indoor rinks will remain open well into the warm weather.
WAR MAP OF MEXICO!
Of course you will want one of these maps, which will be printed in four colors and occupy a space of 10 by 22 inches, as a special feature of next Sunday New York World's Illustrated Magazine. This issue of the Sunday World Magazine will also contain the second installment of "Fantomas," one of the most absorbing detective stories ever written. A review of the first chapter will be printed so you can start the story as if from the beginning. This great masterpiece of fiction was written by the two "Conan Doyles" of France, Marcel Allain and Pierre Sonyestre. Order in advance.
NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF WO MEN'S CLUBS TO HOLD BI ENNIAL MEETING
Tuskegee, Alabama, March 30. The National Association of Colored Women's Clubs, Mrs. Booker T. Washington, president, it to hold/its next biennial meeting in Baltimore, Maryland, beginning Sunday, August 6th at which time a mass meeting will be held at one of the important churches

AMONG THE MASONS
Brethren, make your Masonry worth something for your neighbor and yourself.
Our Masonry is more than a cloak to be put on or off at will.
Masonry ought to be a great factor in building up character.
A certificate of proficiency in the work is a prerequisite to the installation of a worshipful master in Idaho.
---
The glory of life is to love, not to be loved; to give, not to get; to serve, not to be served. To be a strong hand in the dark to another in the time of need; to be a cup of strength to a human soul in a crisis of weakness is to know the glory of life.—Selected
The morality of Freemasonry requires us to deal justly with others; not to defraud, cheat or wrong them of their just dues and rights. But it goes further; regarding all as the children of one great father, it regards man as bound by plety, Masonic morality and fraternal bonds, to minister to the wants of the afflicted and distressed; and that we may be enabled to fulfill this high behest of humanity, it strictly enjoins industry and frugality so that our hands may ever be filled with the means of exercising that charity to which our hearts should ever dispose us.—Missouri Freemason.
The tendency of the body of Masonry is to put a check on hasty legislation in the grand bodies, and to this end there are two propositions: First the referendum; second, to have all proposed legislation filed with the grand secretary at least two months before consideration and instruction of delegates. We favor the latter as the most direct and effective in results: N. O. Square and Compasses.
Yesterday is dead.
Forget it!
Tomorrow does not exist
Don't worry!
To-day is here.
Use it!

The Initiate
The initiate, upon his entrance soon discovers, if indeed he is a man of soul, body and mind, that Masonry deals with matters of vastly more importance to him than petty self-interest or aggrandizement. He is taught that the real purpose of admitting him was that he might be encouraged in first recognizing God in all. Secondly, humanity as God's family, and finally, himself as a servant to both of them. He discovers another fact; that Masonry, far from being a playground, is a preparatory field for the real labors of life and that if he would remain loyal to her precepts, he, too, must work.—Selected.
Brotherly Love
By constant repetition we become so familiar with many phrases and sentences that we fail to recognize their true significance. "Brotherly love" is one of these. How often have we repeated these two words since we lisped them at our Masonic birth? We were told that by the exercises of brotherly love, we are taught to regard the whole human species as one family—the high and low, the rich and poor—created by one Almighty Being and sent into the world for the aid, support, and protection of each other.
Have we lived up to all that is included in this teaching? Love is the life of a true home, and is not love equally the light and life of a lodge? Should not the lodge be a haven of rest, where a brother for a time should find shelter from the storms which be encounters on life's way, where for a time he will forget the world's buffetings? Few wish to make others unhappy, but we must go further.
We must give a hearty welcome, and smile our pleasure at the meeting. It is very true that many of us may not possess that charm of manner which puts a brother at his ease and makes him feel that there is one within whose breast beats a sympathetic heart, and here is one to whom he can unburden depressing thoughts.
But do we make the best of our opportunities? Do we not think that a nod and a common-placed remark is enough? How many of us make a point of getting into touch with as many brethren as possible on lodge nights? Is it not a fact that, though many of our minds may be moving on parallel lines they never meet? Sometimes it seems to me that a ten minutes' interval during business, when brethren could move about the lodge and exchange a few words of greetings, would be an innovation on right lines. Of course, I am told that the fourth degree provides opportunity, but with the hurry-scurry of supper, toasts, fires, music, etc., little can be done.
The trust test of brotherly love is sympathy. Merely good intentions are not sufficient. We must show some
thing more practical. We must enter into our brother's life, and this can only be done by gaining his confidence. The brother whose sympathies are deep will most the easily accomplish this. But even those of us whose exterior are somewhat cold may go far if we only care to make the effort.
True, the effort may be difficult but the cultivation of a sympathetic manner will do wonders. Sometimes it may be our duty to find fault, but let it be done with love. We sometimes pride ourselves on being candid, and this is right; but in striving after candor it is not necessary to wound the feelings of a brother. Let our words be like rays of sunshine, and not like barbed arrows or the bite of a serpent. —Masonic Light.
NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE WEEK LY LETTER
By J. C. Lindsay
To be living in this progressive age is in sublime. Within the memory of the most of us whose privilege it is to live in this, the brightest and most progressive age of the world, we can recall when things in every avenue of life were done in a much different way than they are being done at this time. The farmer, the very backbone, sinews and, indeed, the life of all which go to make this as well as all other countries prosperous, went about the preparation and fertilization of his lands in former days in quite a different way to how the up-to-date, twentieth century farmer goes about the same task in these bright and prosperous days. The one gallows farmer with poor, hungry old mule, with hair rubbed off his sides and sore back, with gear made of strings, wire, rags and bark and with all broken up, worn out tools and antiquated farming implements, is fast giving place to the educated, industrially trained farmer, who knows the producing qualities of his land and its susceptibility to high grade fertilizers. This twentieth century farmer, instead of scratching the top of his lands with some old worn-out tools which have been back numbers for ages, has the most improved and highly classed tools and machinery upon his farm. This farmer, instead of scratching around upon the top of his land for three or four days in a week and using the other days in fishing, hunting and talking politics at the cross roads, puts in every hour in planning and working to bring his lands up to that high state of cultivation that thrus his systematic, and intelligent efforts farming will be not only to him but to his family as well, both pleasurable and profitable.
There is never a time when there is nothing doing on the farm. When the crops are gathered, the educated farmer begins to plan and prepare his lands for the raising of other crops. We have referred several times in this letter to the "educated" farmer, which term the reader may misunderstand. We do not mean the book education alone, for there are certain portions of one's education which are necessary to his success, as a farmer, which may and may not be found in books. Many of our most successful farmers, such as the late Deal Jackson and many others, spent but little time, if any, in the school room to learn how to successfully till the earth. These men, in their lines, were educated, yea, they were more than educated, they were geniuses. These men used well the things they had in hand. They had faith in their own ability, faith in their country, last but by no means least, they had faith in their God. This is the very place we have been trying to get since we began this letter. Faith in self, country and God. This is really the work which the National Negro Business League, of which this local branch is a part, started out to do, in the month of August and the year of our Lord, 1900; the work of helping the young Negro men in this country to have faith in themselves faith in their race, faith in their country and faith in their God. These are the essentials to their success. Every mother's son among us, in the middle age and over, who has seen the wonderful progress made by the faithful working members of the race is greatly encouraged to put forth the best endeavors in to bring our young men to the front and assist them in shouldering these racial responsibilities which are not only making problems for the other fellow, but for us as well. No man can perform his duties properly when he goes at them in a half-handed way. We want to see our young men filled with enthusiasm when they are on their jobs. Did you ever see a hackman sitting upon his hack asleep? Would you feel safe in riding in his back behind a young, fiery horse? The same question is asked concerning the automobile driver. These are questions for the young Negro man to consider. The Italian says "Open all night;" the Greek says: "Never closed, come in;" the Chinese say "Me worke too". We the young Negro men of the race who are trusted with re-

sponsible places, and in many instances have the lives of others in our hands. so to speak, must not only wake up but we must get up and stay up and plan and work while up. We think sometimes that many of our young men make the error of trying to start too high. We are not willing, for the most part, to begin at the bottom and work our way gradually to the top. We have seen, and, perhaps, you have too, foreign people come to our shores, who could not speak one word of English, who would begin by peddling with a wallet upon their backs or a push cart with peauts, or a grind stone pushed around on a wheel, sharpening knives and scissors, in a comparatively short time become partners in or owners of some well-established concern. For more than fifteen years the writer has had to employ persons to assist in promoting the industrial insurance business. In some cases it was really amusing to see the air of importance and the wise look some of those seeking employment would give him. One bright (?) young man, who is now without money or job and doubtless finds it hard to get something to eat other than what his mother gives him, said: "This job is all right. I guess, but it certainly looks little to me, getting a nickel here, and a dime youder, looks little to me." This was another of those of whom we have been speaking who wish to start at the top rather than at the bottom and work up.

TALLADEGA COLLEGE
Talladega. Ala.—The student body was greatly benefited by the presence of many prominent visitors this week. One of the fine things of college life is the contact with men who are aiding the progress of civilization. This spirit was shown by Dr. Woodside a missionary of the A. M. A. from Africa. Dr. Woodside gave a series of lectures on the life and customs of the natives of Angola, Central Africa. He also gave a demonstration of many crude article in present usage. Each lecture drew a large attendance.
We were delighted also in having with us Miss Pynlon, president of the Y. W. C. A. of Southern Colleges. Miss Pynlon gave an interesting talk to the student body at the chapel services Friday noon. Dr. Gutterson, district secretary of the A. M. A., spent Thursday and Friday on the grounds, his presence and words of encouragement left a deep impression, especially his talk on the worth of character.
The following members of the board of trustees which met this week are present: Mr. George W. Crawford, Esq., New Haven, Conn.; Pres. Nathan D. Young, Tallahassess, Fln.; Rev. H. Paul Douglass, N. Y.; and Dr. Franklin H. Warner, N. Y., each of these gentlemen always bring us a message of good tidings. Mr. Crawford addressed the teachers training class of the Sunday school on the subject.

Hampton. Va. March 30. The physical directors at Hampton Institute, Miss Frances E. Weston and Charles H.

The Spirit of Spring—Spring enters gradually pushing away winter. She calls to the four corners of the earth. The earth-song of joy rises to the sun which melts the snow; the brooks begin to flow, the flowers to bloom, the birds to flutter; and spring dances gaily away over the world. Cotton Needs Pickin—The fold songs and dances of the various countries represent elements in their national life. Their color and quality record the feelings and traits of a people, as their forms represent past ceremonial customs of religious and social significance. They are also expressive of a racial inheritance of song, energy, and physical skill.
"Cotton Needs Pickin'" is one of the many work songs sung by the field hands in the early plantation days. An attempt has been made to interpret the words in action, using steps and actions characteristic of Negro life.

It is stated by press dispatches, and to their credit, that the Negro troops that have crossed the border into Mexico are the best specimen of the American soldiers. He is well built and every inch a soldier. Despite his loyalty and capability, he is being proscribed and not allowed to organize companies, etc., in the majority of the states of the union. The Negro troops will yet be badly needed, and this government may see its failure to allow the Negro a chance to train as a soldier.
If the progressives return to the fold, we will have a Republican victory in November. If they are kept out, which is what the Jackson people are trying to do, we cannot hope to win the next election, therefore supporting Colonel Johnson means victory, and supporting Jackson means defeat.
We are not deserving of the compliment paid us, but nevertheless we extend our appreciation to the editor of the Georgia Baptist for the following:
"Editor Sol. C. Johnson, of The Savannah Tribune, is one of the cleanest and most high-class men in the state. You may differ with Mr. Johnson in politics, in secret order matters, or what not, but you will always find him the same courteous gentleman."
---
In 1912 the progressive element of the Republican party formed a new party supporting Colonel Roosevelt for president. The deflection on this element of the Republican party brought defeat. Now the Progressive adherents desire to return to the Republican party and Colonel Johnson represents that element which is urging them to do so. Mr. Jackson represents that element of the Republican party which refuses to recognize the Progressives.
At a recent club meeting in Pittsburg, Pa., says the Courier, when some of the women began to hammer and gossip about other women, one little woman who had grown tired of such proceedings, arose and said: "Let's stop knocking each other it is wrong." The hush that fell upon the meeting but emphasised the sermon which she had delivered. How about Portland club women?
The habit of knocking has one peculiarity which makes it all the more dangerous and objectionable. Most of our knocks come from our "friends." Our enemies seldom knock us, because they are expected to assail us, and their words of bitter denunciation are no surprise to any one, and therefore do us little harm.
But our friends, our dear friends—they are the source of the greatest harm and evil. It is the friend who sits at your table and enjoys your hospitality, "lavishing compliments upon you the while, and then "scores" you as a poor, niggardly host; it is the friend who manifests an interest in your business only to say later that you "must be losing out;" it is the friend who endorses you for high appointment and then says quietly that you are not fit for the place; it is the friend who congratulates you upon the success you have achieved, and then says to your neighbor: "I don't see how he does it." And so your "friends," with your interest at heart go on forever. "knocking."
These friends have no charity. They are malicious enemies who sap your good will and deeds for their strength under the guise of friendship. They become "friends" for the sole purpose of arming themselves with sufficient acquaintance of you to fit them for their mission as a "knocker."
The sermon of the club women should be spread broadcast throughout the country. The slogan should be framed and hung in the reception hall of every home until the people who love to be styled as "friends" shall know that it requires sincerity, charity and genuine good fellowship to constitute
friendship. "Let's stop knocking, its wrong."—Advocate.
The first death to occur in the Mexican invasion was a coated soldier. While it was an accidental death, yet he was on a mission of service for his country and should be marked a hero in the cause.

Beaufort, S. C.—One of the most delightful social events of the season was the banquet of Queen Esther' Court. No 1. O. O. C. on Monday March 20th at Old Fellows' Temple, celebrating their 19th anniversary. The affair reflected great credit on the mother court of the state, Queen Esther being the first Court of Calanthe instituted in South Carolina. Now the order has more than 97 courts in the State which speaks well for Major P. A. Roper, the G. W. C., Mrs. E. M. Washington, G. D. D., Mrs. Rosa M. Williams, G. R. of D. Just after the delightful supper which was spread for more than 200, Mrs. Ella Sanders, W. C. of the court, made a welcome address in her usual jolly way, which brought forth much applause and was responded to by Hon. J. I. Washington on behalf of Corinthian Lodge. Major P. A. Roper, G. W. C., then spoke in behalf of the Courts throughout the state. Mr. P. S. Sanders gave a very interesting talk in behalf of Acme Lodge. Interesting remarks were also made by Mrs. E. M. Washington, G. D. D. She spoke on the growth of the order here and throughout the state. Mrs. Mamie Maxwell spoke in behalf of Queen Rosa Court. No. 12. Major George Reed, in behalf of the citizens, and Capt J. S. Blocker spoke in behalf of the Uniform Rank. The entire affair was one of the most enjoyable social events in Beaufort for years. It was almost early morning before folks were wending their way home.

Court convened in Beaufort this week. Hon. Howell Judge, of Walters, S. C., Hon W. J. Thomas. Very few cases other than liquor cases the jury brought in a true bill.

He was bringing to Beaufort at night two gallons of whiskey, when he was stopped by the rural policeman. His team and all were confiscated by the same officer and a case made against him for transporting whiskey. Hon. J. I. Washington defended Mr. Parks and won his case, which speaks well for Hon.

In sad but loving memory of J. C. Wright who departed this life April 3, 1915, to enter the low green tent whose covers never outward swing. A devoted husband and a loving father.
"Life is a jailer and death an angel sent down to draw the unwilling bolts and set us free."
Mrs. J. C. Wright and children.
In fond remembrance of a devoted wife and loving mother, Mrs. Gussie Spaulding, who departed this life April 1, 1915, in New York City.
Just a year ago today,
Your sweet life was sniffed away;
Sad may be the memo-ry.
But thou cameth here not to stay.
Dear, thou wast mild and lovely,
Gentle as the summer breeze;
Pleasant as the air of evening.
When it floats among the trees.
P peaceful be thy silent slumber.
Peaceful in the grave so low;
Thou no more wilt join our number.
Thou no more our songs shalt know.
Yet again we hope to meet thee.
When the day of life is fled;
There in heaven with joy to greet thee.
Where no farewell tear is shed.
Husband and daughter

In memory of my dear father, B. R.
Young, who departed this life March
30, 1915.
Tis hard to break the tender cord.
When love has bound the heart;
Tis hard, so hard to speak the words.
Must, we forever part?
Dearest loved one, we have laid thee.
In the peaceful grave's embrace;
But thy memory will be cherished.
Till we see thy heavenly face.
Farewell father, may joy attend thee.
May angels bright defend thee.
Till life shall cease.

In sad but loving memory of our dear mother, Mrs. Grace . Robinson, who died March 28, 1915.
Mother, thou wert mild and lovely,
Gentle as the summer breeze;
Pleasant as the air of evening,
When it floats among the trees.
A precious one from us has gone,
The voice we loved is still;
The place is vacant in our home,
Which never can be filled.
Farewell but not forever,
There will be a glorious dawn;
We shall meet to part no more,
On the resurrection morn.

In sad memory of our dear mother and wife, Mrs. Rena Barnard, who departed this life March 29, 1914.
Have you a mother? Love her well,
While she is spared on earth;
Wait not till death shall call her home,
To know her precious worth.
Oh! soothe her in her hours of pain.
Be gentle and be mild:
How sweet it is for us to know,
She has been a devoted mother.
Ah! distinctly we remember,
That 29th day of March;
When you, dear mother, did gently
grow
We looked at thee and bitterly wept.
But you, into His arms had crept;
Then we dropped our heads and thought
About your dear soul by Him being
bought.
But dear mother we will meet thee,
In that great day of-eternity;
Then we will all gather,
Around His throne forever and ever.

EDWARD J. ROWELLS
Who departed this life in New York
City, April 5, 1913
A bitter cup a shock severe,
To part with one I loved so dear;
My loss is great I'll not complain,
But trust in God we'll meet again.
Dearest loved one I have laid thee
In the peaceful grave embrace;
But thy memory will be cherished.
Till I see thy loving face.
I loved you, yes I loved you,
But Jesus loved you best;
And he has sweetly called you.
To His eternal rest.
In sad but loving memory of Alfred I. Washington, who departed this life April 3rd, 1913.
Tis but a mound of narrow girth: The gracious grass, will hide the earth, And morning touch its eastward side—A mound so short, a maiden's pace Would measure out the little place It humbly holds, till judgment tide.
We do not mourn: we have no tears. We only know a weight of years Must lie on us ere we depart, And that we bear a mock at truth, The brow and laughing eyes of youth, While chill of age is in our hearts.

on, sleep on.

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 is 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 president and buy a bottle of "S. P." and tell your friends of its good results. If only costs you fifty cents at the Savannah Pharmacy.
Dr. Booker T. Washington's memorial song just finished and is now ready for the market. Will be found in all music stores. Price 25 cents per copy.

It may inspire some boy or girl to strive after the nobler life. Who can tell. Send to-day for a copy is it is not in your music dealer's store. Address, Rev. W. M.

Newspaper at Matzatland Mexico Say:
Mixture of Negroes and Mexicans
Would Make Handsome race—
‘Translated from Correo De
La Trade of Mazat-
land, Alexieo
Mazatland, Mex.—(Reciprocal News
Service, taken and translated from the
Correo De La Trade of Mazatland
Mexico, by C. B.)
“Jt is inferred by what is asserted
in the’ El Imparcial, under date of
January 29 past, under heading *The
Negro Problem’ that thls daily wishes
that our race be {mproved, crossing
with the black Women, because as it
seems, it ddvoeates that colonies of
Negroes should establish themselves in
Mexico. .
“Recently there appeared in some
dailies, that there were coming about
20.000 Negroes to work land in the
‘states of Tepiec, Chiapa and Tabasco.
“The Mexican Herald, of the 28th
of last month (January), informed its
readers that a large number of Negroes
were ready to leave Texas and Touis-
jana for Mexico to colonize 30,000 hee-
tores (80,000 acres) of Iand donated
conditionally by the government and
were assured of 400,000 heetores (1.
000,000 acres) more to be purchased,
“The white Americans who come
here to seck land are mostly specu-
lators that buy or take option for
speculations, but not for the purpose
fo cultivating nor improving them.
Those (whites) who emigrate from
the United States to seek homes, do
not come to Mexico but to Canada,
where they find good lands cheap.
These past few years, more than 400-
000 Americans have emlgrated from
the United States to Canada carrying
with them more than $20,000,000.
“The Europeans have no desire to
come here to compete with the peon|
laborers of the plantations for the al
wages which the latter receive. Nor
the Japanese either. The Chinese
when they come do not compete with
the peons ‘in the cultivation of Iands,
but to compete with the Meviean re-
tall merehant,
“Now that neither the Muropenn,
Japanese nor Chinese desire to. work:
our lands under present conditions,
Who object to the coming of those Ne-
grose from the United States, thred
as they should be of the daily lynch-
ingr, ete. ,
“Should 20,000 come now and sue:
ceed, we can rest assure that ir fre
Jeary We Shall have 160,000 of them,
sind in two decades 1,000,000.
“The most serious problem sud dit.
ficult of solution which threatens the
United States in the near future, is
that of the Negroes. When the Ne-
gro was freed 50 years ago there 4-
000,000, Now there ure more than
10,000,000. Should they continue to
increase in the same proportion ut tn
end of thi, century there will he over
330,000,000.
“If now that they. being 10,000,000,
are a'bete noire’ of our neighbors of|
the North, what will they be when they
shall haye attained 50,000,000.
“the Americans ought to satisfied
to send us Negroes {n exchange for

HAITI. UNDER CONTROL
OF THE UNITED STATES
Washington, D. C.—The treaty be
tween the United States and the re-
public of Haiti, ratified by the Senate
may be said to constitute a sequel to
the latest of a series of tragic’ chap-
ters In the history of the most turbu-
lent island in the western hemisphere.
It is the hope of the clement in Haiti
that has been striving for years to
crush out the revolutionary tendency
among the people, and to .promote or-
derly and suitable government, as it Is
the hope of the United States, that the
signing of this convuntioe will start
the little country on the road to peace
and prosperity. The treaty segms to
have been drawn with the purpose of
‘establishing in the island a benevolent
despotism. Perhaps this is the best
that could be done in the present etr-
cumstances. The conditions were ex-
traordinary, and doubtless they had to
be met in kind. But the establishment
of benevolent despotism is hardly the
proper function of a democracy, and it
must be difficult for any well-wisher of
the United States to refrain from Hop-
ing that it may proceed along this line
only far enough to place the objects of
its philanthropy on their feet and in
a position to do for themselves.

‘The first two verses of our lessor
chapter describe Saul going on in th

the murder of Stephen and kept th
raiment of those who stoned him, Hi
is still breathing out threatenings and
slaughter against the disciples of the

He confessed that he was a blasphemer
snd a persecutor; that he was exceed:
ingly mad against the saints, beyond
measure petsccuting the church of
God, shutting up men sud women in
prison and giving bis voice against
them when’ they were put to death and
all the time thought that be was right
4a thus epposing the teaching and the
followers of Jesus of Nazareth He
was, as he afterward sald, 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 (IT Cor. sk 33: iv. 4:
I Tim, t 1.
‘The day came when he reached the
Mmit, and God's clock struck {ts “no

way to imprison and Kill more saints
and nearing bis 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 bright-
ness of the sun which shone upon him,
and he heard a weice saying to tim in
‘the Hebrew language, “Saul, Sail, why
' persecutest thou me?” The people who
)Wwere with him saw the light, but did
not hear the words. He not only saw
| and felt the light and heard the words,
but Le saw the Lord Jesus (verse 17),
who thus condescended to appear to
‘him personsils, as He will to the ni-
‘tion at Ills coming in glory, for it is
seritten, “They sbatl look upon ime
}whom they have plerced,” and they
‘shall say, “Lo, this is our God; we
have waited for Him, and He will save
pus" (Zech. xil, 10; Rev. §, 73 Isa. sxy,9).
Lo Suul's question, “Who art Thoa,
| Lord?” the-auswer came, “I am Jesus
of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest.”
What an illustration of-the assurance

} touching the upple of His~eye! (Eph.

| never had before, the eyes of his un-
derstanding being enlightened, for the
light of the knowledge of the glory of
God in the fuce of Jesus Christ bad
shone in (Eph. % 18; If Cor. tv, 6).
From tuat hour he was born from
above, a child of God, a sinner saved,
a rebel surrendered, whélly submitted
to Jesus Christ risen from the dead
and ascended to heaven. The glory of
that light from heaven made hit for-
‘ever blind to all human greatness of
righteousness, and now to him to lire
was Christ (Acts xxit, 11; Phil. 4 20.
‘With trembling and astonishment he
submissively said, “Lord, what wilt
thou have me todo?’ And thenceforth
te was tho bondservant of the Lord
Jesus Christ. What his communinzs

we may perhaps learn from bis own

of—there was no one worth while ta
him but Jesus Christ. How wonderful
are the words of the Lord to Ananias
concerning him, “He ts a chosen vessel

(verses 15, 16). Compare chapter xxii,

The text at the evening hour was "Ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen." The topic at the Y. P. S. C. E. was "Great home missionaries," led by Sister Sarah Allen. The program was interesting. The solo sung by Little Maggie Allen and the duet by Mrs. Mary Willis and Mr. Edward Jackson were exceptionally good. A paper read by Anne Washington was instructive. The campaign for new Sabbath School pupils is still on. Order of services: Wednesday evening 7 o'clock, preaching; Sunday 11:30 a.m., preaching; 3 p.m. Sunday School; 7 p.m., Y. P. S. C. E.; 8 p.m., preaching. You are invited to attend all of these services.

EVANGELICAL MENISTERS' UNION
The Evangelical Ministers' Union met with Rev. J. A. Martin presiding. Devotional service was conducted by Rev. J. S. Jenkins. The 13th Psalter was then read. Rev. W. A. Pierce of the A. M. E. Church of Guyton, Ga., visited the Union. Rev. J. S. Jenkins read a paper, subject "The doctrine of trinity". The paper was discussed at length. A vote of thanks was tendered the writer. Sermonic report was given by Rev. Wm. Daniel from Rev. 21:10. subject "A glimpse of home" Rev. C. C. Cargile is holding district conference at Oyo, 6a.
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. Llc. R. M. Johnson again occupied the pulpit Sunday and gave a very helpful talk.
On Sunday night the pastor preached a noble sermon to a very large audience. He preached from 116 Psalms, text "I will walk before the Lord with the kind of the living."
subject "Pick your company." Rev. Prince handled his subject in a way that inspired those who heard him. These sermons will prove helpful to all who go to hear them and it is hoped that the church will be filled every Sunday night.
FIRST B. B. CHURCH
At the close of the morning service there was baptism. The communion was very impressive and the attendance quite large. At night Rev. Wright read for a lesson Ps 140. His subject was "Think of me, show kindness." It was indeed a very touching sermon. Many beautiful lessons and helpful advice were given. Quite a number bowed for prayer. The services of the B. Y. P. U. Sunday school and church are always short and interesting. Come at any time.
ST. PHILIP CHURCH
The revival is in progress and has proven quite an attraction. Evangelist G. W. McLemore is unfitting in his efforts for the unsaved. He preached Sunday at 11 o'clock and Rev. J. H. Este of Brunswick, preached at 8:15. Many persons have been converted during the two weeks. Sunday is communion day and quite a large number is expected to participate.

FRIENDSHIP BAPTIST CHURCH
Friendship Baptist Church, 611 Duffy street, west. Sunday last was a successful day. Services were largely attended. At 3:30 p. m. the Evergreen Baptist Church, of which Rev. C. L. Hayes is pastor, communed with us. The communion sermon was delivered by Rev. C. L. Hayes, music was rendered by Evergreen's choir. Mt. Zion Baptist Church of which Rev. H. D. Butler is pastor, was also with us. The right hand of fellowship was given to two applicants. The thirty days revival will begin on the First Sunday night. Pastor Moody will be assisted by little Tommie Jenkins, the 16 year old boy preacher of Florida. The public is cordially invited to attend all services.
ST. BENEDICTS CHURCH
Fourth Sunday in Lent, gospel John VI:1:15. "Jesus feeds with five loaves and two fishes, five thousand men besides the women and children. Twelve baskets of fragments remained." This was a great miracle, but our Lord works a still greater and more glorious miracle whenever He feeds at the holy table, not only a few thousands, but millions of men with the heavenly bread of the Holy Enchrist. "The bread I will give you is my flesh for the life of the world," John VI:55. The Children of Mary will go tomorrow to communion in a body. The evening service will consist of the monthly Holy Hour.
On last Wednesday the lenten service was one of the most impressive ceremonies. A large congregation had gathered to hear the grand sermon of Rev. Father Ambrose, O. S. B., of the Benedictine College. His subject was, "The reason why we should practice religion." The address was one of the best ever made to the members of St. Benedict's. The whole discussion was very instructive and a fine piece of great religious literature. At Benediction the usual liturgical hymn, "O Salutaris, Tantum Ergo, and Laudate Dominum" were rendered by the choir in the sweetest and most touching manner.
We are glad to announce that Father Scherrer of Atlanta, who was ill for several weeks at St. Joseph's Infirmary is now able to resume his former duties at "Our Lady of Lourdes." Very Rev. Father Lissner, who paid a flying visit to our missions of Macon, Atlanta and Augusta, has returned to Savannah with the joyful report that the school and church work are progressing nicely everywhere in our Georgia fields.
Arrangements have been made by the Catholic Mutual Aid for a great Easter festival to be held on Monday April 24th in St. Mary's hall. A bicycle will be raffled on the same occasion for the benefit of the church.

MOREHOUSE COLLEGE NOTES
Atlanta Georgia, March 30th—Morehouse was indeed very glad to open her doors to the host of distinguished visitors who came to our school last week.
Dr. Ernest Butler of N. Y., who is now engaged in an evangelistic meeting at Wheat Street Baptist Church spoke on "Success." He said that if we are to be successful in any undertaking we must have selection, understanding, concentration, courage, elimination, steadfastness and self-reliance.
Dr. Bailey, of Texas, who is also engaged in the evangelist meeting which is being held at Shiloh Baptist Church, gave an interesting talk in chapel. His theme was "The Negro on Trial." Mr. Chass, Stewart of Chicago, a prominent member of the Associated Press, spoke to the student body and addressed the class in ethics of the junior and senior classes.
Dr. Wallace Buttrick of New York, corresponding secretary of the General Educational Board, made a very striking talk, telling of his recent experiences in Japan, China and Korea. He always brings a good message and his visits are looked forward to with great hope.
The Board of Turskees met last Thursday afternoon.
Dr. C. L. White of New York, associate corresponding secretary of the American Baptist Home Mission Society and a member of the board of trustees, gave a very rousing and helpful talk on "Love." Dr. White has long been an ardent friend to this institution and the students gave him an enthusiastic applause.
Seldom have women so thoroughly delighted and interested the student body in such speeches as did Mrs. Ford of Chicago and Mrs. Blanche Perkins of Tampa, Fla. Mrs. Ford is a woman who has been interested in the home mission work for several years. The thought that she wished to leave in in the hearts of the students is expressed in these words. "As much as you birth, do your duty." Mrs. Blanche Perkins, a graduate of Spelman Seminary, is engaged in social work in Tampa, Fla. In her short time she told of the work she is doing in Florida. She has been successful through her uniting efforts, and her work duly reflect credit upon her alma mater and her race.
Mrs. Reynolds a life-long friend of Spelman Seminary, was present.
Mr. Baylor, a student of Meharry School of Pharmacy, stopped over for a short while on his way to his home at Columbia, S. C.
The following officers have been elected by the X. M. C. A. for the ensuing year: Mathis Dickson, president; C. F. Jackson, vice-president; Harold Dhart, secretary. The installation will take place Sunday.
The annual junior and senior reception will be at the residence of the president, Friday night, March 31st.
Morehouse has two contests staged for this week, one with the State Normal team of Nashville, Wednesday and the other with Clark University on Saturday.

Lesson II.—Second Quarter, For April 9, 1916.
Text of the Lesson, Acts ix, 32-43. Memory Verses, 39, 40—Golden Text, Tit. ii, 7—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns.
We leave Saul at Tarsus, his native town, for a time and return for a few lessons to Peter as the human instrument through whom the risen and ascended Christ continues to prove that He is alive and the same Jesus. The one only thing that believers are on earth for is to magnify the Lord and glorify Him in all things and widen people to Him. Titus we are turning people to Him we are not magnifying Him. For when He is lifted up before people in our lives he word or deed he who was lifted up on the cross for us will draw unto Himself all whom the Father has given unto Him to form His body. We must think of Peter as in chapter viii. 25, preaching the word of the Lord wherever he went to save sinners and to strengthen and comfort the saints.
So he came to Lydda and was used by the Lord to give health to a man called Aeneas, who had kept his bed eight years, being palsied. His words to him were, "Aeneas, Jesus Christ maketh the whole; arise and make thy bed." He was made whole and arose immediately, and one result was that all who dwelt there, seeing this miracle, turned to the Lord. I have often thought that perhaps the Lord would still heal more people if He saw that the restored health would glorify him or win others to Him. He knows whom He can trust with health or trials and which will be best for the person intrusted with either. When Lazarus was allowed to die it was that in some way the Son of God might be glorified (John xl. 4). The man of John 1x. 3. was born blind that the works of God should be made manifest in him. If only we can say "I have glorified Thee on the earth" we shall have His "Well done."
Turning to Peter at Joppa, we are introduced to a saint, called Dorcas, who while she lived was full of good works and alms deeds which she did. She was not full of talk about good works which might be done, nor did she spend her time telling of alms deeds which she knew that others were able to do and ought to do, but she was in the Lord's hand to be used by Him as the needle was in her hand, a willing instrument. Good works are prepared beforehand for each believer to walk in (Eph. ii, 10), not in any way to add to our safety which is wholly due to the blood of Jesus Christ. His finished work, but as an evidence to people that we are indeed His workmanship. Good works are not necessary to God to prove to Him our faith, for He reads the heart, but the good works of believers are good and profitable unto men who cannot read the heart (Tit. iii, S).
This faithful saint became sick and died. She departed to be with Christ, which is far better than continuing here. She was absent from the body and present with the Lord. She rested from her labors (Phil. i. 21, 23; II Cor. v. 8; Rev. xiv, 13). Consider this well and then note the conduct of these disciples at Joppa. Two men were sent to Lydda to find Peter and bring him without delay, hoping that he might bring Dorcas back to them from the dead. This was all very natural, and the same desire prevails everywhere today, as a rule, to have loved ones come back to earth even though we know that they have gone to be with Christ and have the gain, the very far better. But quietly consider it. When our loved ones on earth go away for a few days or weeks or months to rest or for their health, and we know that they are well and happy, what would it be but utter selfishness on the part of those left at home to send for them to come back after a day or two, saying: "Oh, I am so lonely! I can't bear to have you away. Come right back to me."
Now, what was the difference in this case? I hope that I am not misjudging those weeping widows, but as I see them showing the costs and garments which Dorcas had made I am wondering a little if they wanted her back to do some more sewing for them when perhaps she had simply worked herself to death for them. I can almost imagine the Lord Jesus saying to Dorcas after she had reached her heavenly home and was enjoying something of the 'bliss of paradise': "Dorcas, they are asking to have you come back to earth for awhile," but I leave it to you. I'll be glad to have you stay, for I love to have my redeemed ones with me in glory (John xvll. 24), but if you are willing to go back for a time I will let you bring others with you." I think that would decide Dorcas to return, and we know that by her return to the earth many believed in the Lord (verse 42).
The result was the same in the case of Lazarus, brother of Mary and Martha, for we real that "the reason of him many of the Jews went away and believed on Jesus" (John vii, 11). The man who found himself in torment after death wanted some one to warn his brothers who were still on earth,lest they should come to the same awful place (Luke xi, 27, 280). So it is not difficult to think that it might be willing to come back from heaven if they could take others so that place of bliss.

WILLIAMS GET DECISION OVER MASKED MARVEL
The boxing contest between the "Masked Marvel" and K. O. Lou Williams at the Pekin Theatre on last Tuesday night was a big success. Although Williams had youth and strength pitted against advanced age, it was plainly seen that the Marvel possessed superior knowledge of the boxing game. The defense fighting as was put up by the "Marvel" was of the top notch class and was the greatest display of defense boxing seen in this city for a long time. His cleverness and coldness during the gruelling contest were remarkable. K. O. Williams showed much speed and carried the fight to his opponent from the beginning of the bout. He protected himself well and at no time during the contest was he in any danger. The bout was scheduled to go fifteen rounds but was ended in the ninth round when the "Marvel" announced that he could not win over Williams who was still strong and
