The Savannah Tribune. NEGRO SCHOOL CHILDREN'S RACES ATTRACTING VERY WIDE ATTENTION VOLUME XXXI 13,000 Tickets Out ALL ENTRANTS WILL APPEAR IN NEXT WEEK'S TRIBUNE All Entrants Must be Welghed at The Tribune by Wednesday—Prizes for Open Events Expected Next Week—Full Brass Band Engaged. With but two weeks intervening before the great annual school children's races at the baseball park, every Negro boy and girl of school age in the city is anxiously awaiting the arrival of Friday afternoon, May 12th, when they will participate in the one great, big day of the school year—the school children's races. This event is by all means the jolliest day of the year on the school calendar and one in which both parents and children throut the city unite in celebrating with utmost joy and happiness. Noise, bustle, cheering and school singing will be heard on the afternoon of May 12th as never before in this city and the woods for miles around the ball park will echo the mighty and lusty yells which will go up from the thousands of enthusiastic onlookers as the boys and girls romp away in friendly but aptited rivalry in the greatest set of athletic games staged throughout the southeastern states for primary schools. Fully three hundred boys and about one rundred girls will compete. All of the schools will have selected their teams by Monday and are asked to have each boy and girl welghed in at The Tribune by Wednesday night of next week. That the youthful athletes are faithfully training for this great athletic classic cannot be denied, for every night between eight and nine o'clock the city is fairly alive with groups of boys, donned in their running suits, practicing up and down the streets, under the careful eye of their trainers. Even the roads leading for miles out of the city are no strange-paths to the distant runners among the earnest little athletes, for they are working their willing little bodies for all they are worth in order that they may cover themselves with glory and bringing honor to their respective schools. And the girls, too, are very active in preparing for the six races that they will enter. Any afternoon one may observe a group of them with a couple of female teachers here and there on the commons or in some nearby lot, running up and down the green trying to condition themselves for the strenuous afternoon's play which is before them on May 12th and in which they will join hands with the boys in attempting to win the championship for their respective schools. As to where the flag will go this year cannot be said, for the keenest rivalry of the five years of the races is looked for, with honors about even in all of the schools. However, the little Swangin boys, who scampered away winners last year, are confident of turning the trick again this year and are sure that when the last race shall have been run on May 12th they will have gathered a sufficient number of points to retain possession of the coveted honors for the little Duffy Street school. In the ticket selling contest, the advantage seems to be with the Cuyler Street school on account of the older girls there, but the other schools are working with might and main and are expecting to figure very prominently in the contest for the diamond lavalier. Additional prizes for the races have already been ordered and should arrive in the city by about the middle of next week. These prizes will be awarded in the club events and are beautiful gold and silver watch fobs. They will be suitably inscribed with the name of the Urban League, the date of the meet and the event. They are a most appropriate prizes and will be highly appreciated by the winners. In addition, however, to this will go the beautiful club trophy to the club scoring the highest number of points. FOREST CITY TENNIS CLUB The members of the Forest City Tennis Club are advised that the regular monthly meeting will be held Friday evening, May 5th, 8:30 p. m., at the home of Miss Veronica Beasley, G38 East.

Blair GEORGIA STATE COLLEGE DEFEAT EUREKA TEAM In a fast and exciting game of baseball on last Wednesday afternoon at Athletic park the Eureka team went down in defeat before Ga. State College aggregation by a score of 4 to 3. Every moment of the game was full of excitement and the five hundred or more spectators were treated to an unusually good brand of ball. Both teams showed up well and fought hard to the very last inning. The College however, displayed more speed and their fielding and hitting outclassed that of their opponents. One of the enjoyable features of the game was the umpiring of Deas. He handled the situation in fine style and his work seemed to have been entirely satisfactory. Dilworth who was umpiring the bases caused some dissatisfaction on a decision at the home plate which put the runner out. Opinion was divided as to the decision and a lively discussion took place for a short while. Hannah and Burr were the pattery for the College team, while H. Howell and Warner worked for the Eureka. The College scored 8 single hits, a three bagger and a double, and the Eurekas scored six singles and a double.

SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, SATURDAY APRIL 29TH, 1916 Race Co-operation In Relief Work WHITES AND BLACKS WORK TOGETHER TO ALLEVIATE SUFFERING Over Six Hundred Families Given Assistance After Awful Fire Nashville, Tenn, April 22-It is just one month after the disastrous fire in East Nashville, which in about four hours rendered destitute over 2,500 persons, about half of them white and half colored. They were burned out of almost everything save the clothes upon their backs. But before the fire had ceased raging men and women of the greatest capacity in both races were beginning an organization necessary to take care of the sufferers. Homes were thrown open, money came without solicitation, food and clothing were provided. But after the first few days of this temporary relief of food and clothing it became evident that something would have to be done in a larger way to provide many of these families with household furnishings to re-establish them in their homes. This was more largely true of the colored people, who were the greater sufferers. But the white people contributed liberally although they knew that the greater part of the help would go to Negro sufferers. On April 22, after a month's work, the relief committee of the Negro Board of Trade and the relief committee of the Commercial Club, the white business organization of the city, wound up a month of close and friendly co-operation which marks a new period of racial good feeling and practical working together. The relief committee of the Negro Board of Trade, led by President A. N. Johnson, was as follows: T. Clay Moore, secretary; D. Wellington Berry, Dr. F. A. Stewart, W. H. Singleton, D. W. Crutcher, and Dr. George E. Haynes, director of the staff. This committee has received congratulations on all sides for the business like and efficient way it has handled both the work of relief and its relations with the white committee. Three hundred and one white families were investigated and helped and three hundred and twenty-four Negro families. The Negro families constituted about 1,500 people and a considerable majority of the total of individuals in need of help. All were furnished alike with household goods bought in factory lots and distributed by the relief organization from a common shipping headquarters. This generosity of funds and sumpathetic service was made effective by the scientific methods of investigation of needs, keeping of records, and distribution of relief. For the colored people, this was made possible through the help of the department of social service and the senior class of Fisk University, with some help from students of the Agricultural and Industrial State Normal school, Meharry Medical College and Roger Williams University. This work was under the direction of Dr. George E. Haynes, professor of social science at Fisk University and executive secretary of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes. He was assisted by his associate, Mr. Paul F. Mowbray. These college people were on the ground at the start and succeeded in winning the confidence of both white and colored people. So completely did they demonstrate their efficiency that their work was greatly approved by both white and colored people of the city, and as the magnitude of their undertaking became evident this colored staff of workers of the Negro Board of Trade was invited over as a body to the main headquarters in an office adjoining the staff of the Commercial Club where they remained in cordial co-operation with the white staff until the end of the work. Questionaires of the usuel type were quickly drafted and printed. After the first few days of temporary provisions of food and clothing every applicant, in order to secure aid, was required to give information concerning himself and family and a trained investigator was sent to see his condition and make recommendation as to the help needed. In this way a full record has been kept of the circumstances, needs, and aid given to every sufferer. Few disasters have had better records made and preserved greater efficiency in the distribution of relief to those in need. The work is Republicans Hold District Convention BOLTERS, ATTEMPTING INTER FERENCE, LEAVE HALL UNDER PRESSURE Delegate and Alternate Delegate Elected to Chicago Meeting What started off with every indication of being a bolstesous and rough cause session of the Republican first congressional district convention last Wednesday terminated in one of the most harmonious political meetings ever held in this district. Anticipating trouble, a sufficient number of police officers was requested to be present to nip in the bud any ugly movement that might have arisen. Shortly before Chairman J. E. Warren, of Waynesboro, called the meeting to order the hall was crowded. Immediately at the opening of the convention by the chairman and spontaneously with his beginning to call the roll of delegates to be seated there were shouts of objections from many corners of the hall. The chairman proceeded with the roll, however, and after about the third name was called, the leader of the objectionists led by Henry Lincoln Johnson, of Atlanta, and B. W. S. Daniels were called to gather in the north side where they held a mock convention, the meeting consisting of speeches by Daniels and Johnson. A table in the corner of the hall served as a platform for the rumpers, Dr. Daniels mounting the improvised rostrum and after going through didoes that would have givey credit to a Barnum and Bailey circus clown, shouted at the top of his voice and using his chubby arms and fists as if he were hitting at some imaginable Jack Johnson, dismounted the table and was supplanted by Johnson who essayed to make a speech but could not be heard on account of the shouting and wild screams of those surrounding him. Johnson finally tired and descended from the box, wiping torrents of perspiration from his forehead and took a stand by the side of W. S. Scott who was apparently supposed to be the chairman. But things were not going to suit Johnson, so he directed affairs and in a sort of Czarlike manner gave orders to those about him. For about fifteen minutes Director Johnson held sway over his lieutenants while the motley crowd about him, not knowing what to do, gave vent to their feelings in a continuous yell that would have shamed a crowd of Conanche Indians on the the war path. After this Link Johnson and his crowd seemed to have become tired and worn out. The regular convention then proceeded with their meeting but met with jeers and taunts from the Link Johnson faction standing without the ropes. Police officers observing the disturbance by the Johnsonites, then warned them to keep quiet and the whole bunch singing, some this and some that, elected to leave the hall and filed down stairs and away from the hall. The regular delegates with Warren in the chair, then proceeded with their business, the twelve counties of the district, except one, being represented in the meeting. There were no untoward incidents arising in the convention after the departure of the rumpers. Sol. C. Johnson, of this city, was elected delegate to the National Republican convention and S. Schwarzweliss, Waynesboro, alternate. The convention appointed a committee composed of the chairmen of the twelve counties and the state secretary, to meet here July 4th for the purpose of naming a candidate for Congress and a presidential elector. The officers of the district for the ensuing four years are J. E. Warren, Waynesboro, chairman; Ed. H. Burke, Savannah, vice-chairman; J. L. Grant, Darien, secretary; and W. E. Moore, Guyton, assistant secretary. The convention was addressed by H. A. Rucker of Atlanta, a former collector of internal revenue, and James A. Cobb, of Washington and New York, special assistant attorney general under Roosevelt, Taft and Wilson. being wound up in record time, and has been such as to call forth the hearty commendation of both white and colored people and has laid a foundation for greater racial co-operation in Nashville in meeting other problems of public welfare. Tennis Tournament Ends Today ON FORM SPARTANS SHOULD DEFEAT COLLEGE TO DAY Mrs. Chancey Played Excellent Game, Defeating' Opponents in Straight Sets. The closing week of the local tennis tournament continues the excellent tennis displayed in the previous week. Beginning on Monday with the ladies' singles Mrs. Chauncey gave battle to Miss Ione Monroe. The match was decided in straight sets 6-4, 6-2, in favor of Mrs. Chauncey. Tuesday's game brought Mrs. Chauncey. into competition again, this time with Miss Gowdy of the College. This match also was decided in straight sets, Mrs. Chauncey winning 6-0, 6-4. These matches clearly demonstrated the superiority of Mrs. Chaucey as the best lady player of the city. Playing with the skill of a veteran and at all times mistress of the situation, she gave an exhibition of tennis that will be long remembered by those who witnessed it. The result of the ladies' singles made the score: Forest City 30 per cent; Spartan 25 per cent, College 20 per cent. This made the possession of the cup depend upon the result of the men's doubles matches. This series started Thursday afternoon with the Forest City and Spartans as contenders. After a hard and at all times interesting match, the Spartan representatives won in straight sets 64, $ ^{4}$ 6-2, 13-11. Middleton and Robinson were in top notch condition and their playing was the best of the tournament thus far. Gadsden and Bonnett played, a steady game for the Forest City but were worn down by their more speedy opponents. Possession of the Balfour cup now hinges upon the result of the Spartan- College game which will be played this afternoon on the Spartan court at 4:30 p.m. RACES OFFICIALS MEET Gathering for Conference and Final Instructions Preparatory to Races The following persons, selected as officials of the annual school races, in various capacities, will meet at the headquarters of the Urban League, West Broad and Gwinnett lane, on Monday night, May 1st at 8 p.m. Gentlemen will please come early so that this meeting need not interfere with other meetings you may have: W.

WILBERFORCE DEFEATS ANTIOCH COLLEGE Wilberforce, O., April 24.—The University baseball team continues its winning streak by defeating Antioch College team at Yellow Springs, Ohio, Friday afternoon April 21st by a score of 10 to 4. The game was a swatfeast for the Wilberforce sluggers as they took kindly to Taylor's delivery and scored 17 hits, many of which went to extra bases. Lane for Wilberforce fed the red clad Antiochians out of his hands and allowed them only five scattered hits. The game was featured by the hard and timely hitting of Galnes, Coley and Symore for Wilberforce. Lane and Galnes, another star of the team, are well-known in Savannah where they played for several years with the Ga. State Industrial College. Batteries: Lane and Garrison: Taylor and Smith. NUMBER 25 First Game Monday SIX LEADING CLUBS OF THE CITY WILL COMPOSE LEAGUE Urban League and Young Adelphias Play Opening Game—Three Games to be Played Next Week—League Promises Great Rivalry Among Teams. The Savannah Negro Social Club Baseball league opens its season Monday afternoon at the baseball park in what is promised to be a very interesting series of forty-five games. This is the first time that such an attempt at organized baseball has been made by the Negro social and athletic clubs of the city and the movement starts off under most auspicious circumstances. The league is composed of six clubs, each of which has a very large and enthusiastic following. All of the teams are in topnotch condition for the beginning of the season next week and a hard fight for the championship of the city will doubtless be waged during the entire season. The regular playing days of the league are Monday and Wednesday of each week. The opening week, however, will witness three games the additional game being played on Saturday. This was thought advisable in order that the public might have an opportunity to see the six teams in action during the first week of play. The league has two official umpires, Mattie Jones and W. C. Lee, the two alternating during the week. The forty-five games during the season will be stretched over forty days, three games being played on the fourth of July and two on Labor day, the latter being the closing day of the league. Each team will play 15 games. The opening game Monday will be played between the Urban League and the Young Adelphias. On Wednesday the Eurekas and Roosters will meet and on Saturday the Savannah Home Association and the Piney Wood. The games will be called at 4:30 o'clock and the price of admission will be 10 cents for ladies and 15 cents for men. The teams have all secured their uniforms and the three games of the week give promise of attracting very large crowds. The season's schedule is as follows: May 1—Adelphia vs Urban League. May 3—Eureka vs Roosters. May 6—Home Asso. vs Pine Wood. May 8—Eureka vs Home Asso. May 10—Adelphia vs Piney Wood. May 15—Roosters vs Piney Wood. May 17—Home Asso. vs Urban League.

Public is respectfully invited to be present. PAGE TWO Simple, Trim Street Suits for Spring and Summer One-Piece Frocks of Taffeta and Other Soft Silks Also Popular HIP AND KNEE LENGTH JACKETS FAVORED New York, April 19.—Although the fashions are still undergoing changes—and before summer is fairly here, we shall probably find many novelties which have as yet not put in an appearance—for street wear, at least, styles are established. The pannlers, bustles, ruffles, wired hip pockets, and other weird effects, are relegated to the house for evening and afternoons. The Morning Walk on the Avenue One is gratified at the simple, trim street suits and the smart little frocks of taffeta and other silks which greet our eyes in the morning walk on the MCCALL Adaption of a Poiret Model Avenue. The jackets of the serge, gabardine., and novelty wool suits are hip or knee lengths, fitted well through the shoulders and at t he waist, which is usually a trifle raised, and are finished with full basques. The skirts, many of them, are of the circular gored models, and hang full and graceful from the top of a high inside belt. The effect of these jackets, worn with this type of skirt, or with one of the numerous pleated models, is exceedingly smart; and more to the point, perhaps, most becoming to almost all types of figure. The spring and summer styles, many of them, seem to be designed with the idea of concealing slenderness, but at the same time, fortunately, they serve equally to conceal an overabundance of flesh. For instance, let us consider the fitted jacket, with the waist raised slightly above the normal, and the full, fan-tail coat, pleated or flared; such a model, while softening to angels, also straighten out curves most effectively. These coats, originated by Mme. Paquin, will in all probability be the feature of the spring and summer tailored suits of serge, linen, or novelty sport materials. The Charming Summer Silk Frocks We have too厚oughty enjoyed the comfort and becomingness of the simple one-piece frock of silk to let it dis appear from view even for a summer. They are being used for the street, for the house, and for evening wear this season, being even more popular than for the past season or two. Plain, crisp taffetas are used in their fashioning, soft crepes, and crepe de Chines, foulards and printed silks in checked and flowered effects. Mme. Callot sends us a charming little model of plain navy blue taffeta, combined with Pompadur silk; it has a full, gathered skirt of the plain blue, and a qualit corsage and bustle effect of the Pompadour silk, in its soft delicate colorings. There is a qualit lace bodice which lends a dalnty touch. The sleeves and body portion of the waist are of white lawn, and the belt-girdle is laced over, the bust and held in place with shoulder straps. There are any number of interesting sleeveless coatie or three-piece dress affects which thoroughly appeal to many. These are of taffeta or satin, and are to a great extent replacing the short capes introduced a little earlier. Belts and Girdles Again in Favor One of the most interesting details of the smart, little summer frocks, both of silk and wash fabrics, is the girdle. ribbon, one of the flowered or figured taffetas, an attrcure silk or a metal embroidered novelty; and for the serge frock or suit, the various leathers, suede, patent leather, buckskin, or a novelty of novelties, antelope skin. The ordinary silk girdle now measures at least four inches in width at the narrowest point, and at the widest, often from nine to twelve. The widest point is directly in front, the point as a rule coming down over the front of the skirt. In some instances the point extends both up on the corsege and down below; this of course is nothing more or less than the quaint, fascinating bodice of our grandmothers' © MOCALL days. Others of the ribbon girdles are trimmed at the ends with wide sash ends, gathered straight to the belt and forming a half tunic effect, with ribbon ruching at the bottom; or again, the sash ends are attached to the girdle at the sides, hang to the knees and are turned back on themselves, and caught at the back. Suspender trimmings, Sash bows, rosettes, and all forms of ribbon trimmings are tremendously favored. Narrow belts of leather, antelope, suede, buck and other soft-finished qualities, are used as a finish to serge frock or tailored suit. Wool embroidery plays an important part on the girdles too, being deftly introduced to lend a note of sharp contrast to suit or frock. A very popular Russian blouse dress is illustrated here, fashioned of crepe Georgette and satin; it is sashed with the Georgette. In a graceful knotted girdle. The frock of serge or organdy is an araption of Poiret's "Pearl Girse" exhibited at the Plaza some months ago; it is a model that is well liked and becoming. ENFORCEMENT OF RACE SEGREGATION HALTED Federal Court Judge Insists on "Equal Rights." St. Louis, April 17.—Enforcement of the race segregation ordinance of St. Louis was enjoined by the federal district court here to-day. The injunction was granted by District Judge Dyer, who said he made the order temporary only because the United States Supreme Court now is considering the segregation case from Louisville, Ky. Otherwise, he said, he would have granted a permanent injunction. One section of the segregation order prohibits whites or Negroes from living in a block in which 75 per cent. of the houses are occupied by persons of the opposite race. Another makes similar restrictions, but the percentage is 100 instead of 75. In announcing his decision Judge Dyer said: "The Negro is entitled to the same consideration and the same rights as is a white man. The Negro doesn't want social equality. He wants the same rights before the law as the white man and he should have them." MOREHOUSE COLLEGE NOTES Atlanta, Ga., April 26th—Among the visitors of the post week were Mrs. Evans of Philadelphia, Pa., and Mrs. Steele of Chatanooga, Tenn. Mrs. Steele. Who has spent a great part of her life with the little orphans, brought one of her little seven years old girls with her. It was remarkable to see how well she was versed in questions in the Bible. She could name every book in the Bible, all the prophets, and had a thorough knowledge of many other facts of great importance. Mrs. Steele gives all of her children such trailing. On last Friday morning the student body completed its $1,000 campaign THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE for the building fund and enthusiasm reigned unconfined.

Yp this ceremony the candidate be eumies the represeiitative of a spirit aalicornerstone and, hence, to thorough- Ty gnderstand the trne meaning of the ‘eniblematic ceremonial, it is essential that the student of ast should investi- gate the symbolism of the cornerstone. ‘The cornerstone Webster defines as “the stone which lies at the corner of two walls and whites them; the prin- cipal stone, and essentially the stone which forms the foundation” on which the entire building is supposed to rest, and is, of course, the most important atone in the whole edifice. It is laid with impressive ceremonies and the event Is viewed by the workmen as an important er in the construction of the building. ag fo the various proprieties that are necessary to constitute a true corner, stone, its firmness and duration, its perfect form and Sts pecullar position as as the connecting link between the walls, must be attributed the ‘mport- ant character it has assumed in the Yanguage of symbolism. : Freemasonry, which alone of all ex- fsting institutions, bas preserved this ancient and universal language, could not, as may well be supposed, have ne- glected to adgpt the corner-stoné among its most cherished and impressive sym- bols, and hence it has referred to it many of its most significant lessons of morality and truth. ‘The difference between Operative and Specnlative Masonry ts simply this: That while the former, was engared in the construction of a material tem- ple formed, it is true, of the moxt maxnificent materials which the quar- vies of Palestine, the mountains of ‘Lehanon and the golden shores of Ophir could contribute—the latter occuples It- eelf in the ereetion pf a spiritual house. @ honse not made with hands, In which tor cedar. gold and precious stones, are substituted the virtues of the heart, the pure emotions of the soul, the warm affections gushing forth from the hidden fountains of the spirit, so “that the very presence of Je hova, our Father and our Géd. shall be enshrined within us as bis Shekinah was in the Yoly of the Holles of the material temple of Jerusalem. ‘The Speculative Mason, then, if he wightly comprehends the scope and de- sign of his profession, is occupied from nis very first admission into the fra- ternity until the close of his labors and his life, in the construction, the adorn- zaent and the completion of this spirit- ual temple of his body. We lays its fonndation in a firm bellef and an*un- shaken confidence in the wisdom, power and goodness of God. This is the first and upright step. Unless his trust is in God, he can ‘advance no farther than the threshold of initiation. ‘Thus fortified he prepares his mater- 4al with gauge and gavel of Truth, rais- es the plumb-line of Reetitude, squares his work withe the Square of Virtue. and unites the whole with the cement of Mtrotherly Love thus skilfully erect: the living edifice of thoughts words and dees, in accordance with the designs Taid down by the Master Architect of the Universe in the great book of revelation, The aspirant for Masonic Light, the Neophyte, on his first entrance within the Musonle portals, prepare“himselt for this consecrated Inbor of erecting within his own bosom a fit dwellins place for the Divine Spirit, and thus romences the noble work by becom-| ‘ng himeelf a cornerstone on which this spiritual edifice is to he erected. | Tiere, then ix the beginning of the; symbolism of the comer-stone and xt ja singularly curious to obserre how every portion of the archtype has been, mate to perform its appropriate duty jn the roughly carrying out of the the! emblematic allusion. | ‘This symbolic reference of the corner- stone of the material edifice to a Mason when, at his initiation, he commences the intellectual task of erecting a spirit- ual temple n his heart, is beautifully nustained in the allusion of all the va- rious parts and, qualities which are to mands for freedom in education and Uberty in rellslon—Masonie Sentinel. a . The lamented Past Grand. Master Frederick Speed, of Milssfesippt, ‘said: “There is more than one kind of as- sassination in Masonry, but the one most to be dreaded fs that done. by the blood thirsty villain who kills with the ritualistic club which he is per- mitted to use as a weapon. You all know that I am not one of those who thinw it at all important that any par- fleular verblage should be used“to ‘clothe an idea, but the stuttering, stam mering fool who thinks he knows it all, either in lodge, chapter or epuneil. who while murdering the King’s En- glish manages to kill évery desire for further knowledge in the candidate's mind, Is capable of infinite mischict and generally gets in his work. If work is Impressively and intelligently done. It does not matter about the “frills” and the plainest of men can work fmpressively and so tell the story as to fix the attention of the candidate and mnke him anstous for further advancement; but hefore any one ean work creditably he must, at great pains, learn the theory and history of the degree he is attempting to commu-| niente to anothers. He cannot tell’ something he does not know, no matter! how gifted he may otherwise be. | ‘The jov of life ard werlth of the world are in hrmenity, Ve wee 9 qwise man who said; “A man’s worth fs measnred by the mtmber he loves and 1s loved by."—Selected. | The search for the Warld—te fird ‘Divinity Trnth—this snd“this only fs A Mason's work. and the Word fs his rewerd.—Mississinrt: Freemason.

More common sense should be used and less feeling. The Roosevelt boom for the Repub- Jican nomination is increasing ench,day. It will require, a combination mighty and powerful to keep the Coloned from this goal. President Wilson’s “Too proud to fight,” is heaping upon him much ridi- eule and fun. Foreigners are not taking the President seriously and los- ing respect accordingly for our country. The Tribune believes in building up al strong party along all lines among Re- publicans in the state. We have con-| tended for the nomination of candidates for every office in the state from con- stable to governor, even if only a dozen yotes are cast. It is indeed a pity that there are among us those who are supposed to know better, but who have no regard whatever for constituted authority, and ever for constitutional authority, and are ever ready to lead a revolt in order to either rule or ruin. The Florida law preventing white persons from teaching colored, and vice vercla, will be tested. Three nuns have been arrested in order that the Jaw may be passed upon by the courts. It is our prediction that the iniquitious plece of legislation will be completely ruled out by the decision of the court. A Florida postmaster, white, was lynched a short time ago. Lynching begets lynching from the black man to the white man.- The lynching sced ‘has been sown bountifully and the harvest will he plenty, but not to the liking of the sowers. . In Louisiana the “Lily Whites” com- pletely ignored the colored followers, and beld mectings {n the hotels where they were not allowed to enter. The colored Republicans will hold a sepa- rate convention and send delegates to Chicago. This is proper, aud no doubt they will be justly treated. Editor John “Mitchell of the Rich- mond Pinnet fell in the hands of two green policemen in Richmond last week. "They gave him a free ride. Mr Mitchell was fully able to take care of himself. The editor’s white and colored friends were indignent about his treatment. The officers were properly scored by the judge. We are not unmindful of the needs of our children in this community. We are greatly In need of more and better school facilities, The hundreds of our bors an! cirls who are unable to se entre acrommodation in the schools should spur us on to greater endeavors in their behalf. 7 ‘The Jackson party of the state has nominated 2 man for governor who is on the order of the most rabid Demo- erat along racial lines. This man re- sides in n county and is surrounded by counties where Negroes are nor tolerated. And yet prominence !s being given this man by Negrocs who should know better. One of the largest and most repre- sentative gatherings of our race will be held in Philadelphia, Pa., week after next, when the general conference of the A. M. E. Church ronvenes. Dele gates from every section of the country and many foreign paces will be present. ‘This great body will be making history for the race, therefore the delegates must keop this fact vividly In mind. ‘With such a large proportion of col- ored peopld as there is In this com- munity, our white’ friends will not be helping ‘themselves nor the community Uy tgnoring thelr needs, The lavish spending of funds for the betterment of the white citizens, {s not begrudged by us, but it seems that in all fairness the colored citizens should be given some consideration. Nest Monday morning at 12:1 o’clack the recently enacted prohibition law in this state will be effective. The sen- timent here, as well as in other parts of the state, is for its observance. This is well. In this observance all ofLour people should join in order that the efficiency of the law may be fully tested. There is no doubt that the full observance of this law will be of great benefit to a certain element of our people. What will be welcome news to many persons of the clty who have wished for some tlme for some definite local ac- tion that will result In the securing of a Y. AL ©, A. building in our midst, is the announcement that the board of directors of the Colored ¥Y. M. C. A. plans an early campaign inthe interest of a $5,000 headquarters fund. That such a movement should receive the wipport of every public spirited and thoughtful Savanuahian, there could be no doubt. The ¥. M. C. A. is a great organization. ‘We know of no organi- zation, save the church, that is doing more for the young men in the city than the ¥. M. C. A, established in almost every first-class city of the country, Savannah's needs along this line are evident. If atlanta, Colum- bus, Augusta and other cities ‘can have permanent~¥. M. C. A. homes, we see no reason why Savannah cannot. All of us will be given an opportunity to act in the near future. Tet us put our shoulders to the wheel and pull for a strong and permanent local ¥. Mf. C. 4. We are with the movement and it shall be the aim of The Tribune to give all possible aid to the effort. - The opening of the social club base- ball league Monday will, no doubt, be the means of affording local fans much amusement during the coming months. With the absence of professional ball here this year the lust of the fans for ‘some sort of diversion during the hot summer afternoons bid fair to go un- satiated but now that the soctal clubs have come forward with their two games a week for forty‘days the situa- tion: is not quite so serious and the lovers of the national pastime will be at least be afforded an opportunity of Jetting off a little of the excess steam which is accumulated during winter. The clubs which compose the league have truly started a popular movement and one which will, beyond a doubt, strike 1 most responsive chord in the hearts of hundreds of fans. The idea is a capital one, one which is going to prore very successful if only the prop- er article of ball is played and the games are free from unnecessary dis: | putes and wrangles. There Is not the | slightest doubt but that the fans are: going to well patronize the league and that with each of the six clubs do- ing their utmost to further the inter- est of their newly formed baseball ven- | ture by observing the proper kind of field decorum the entire season's sched- | wle can be carried through profitably ang with much satisfaction to the mun dreds of baseball lovers here. The venture is an-excellent one and can be carried to a satisfactory ending with the teams putting up a good, clean ar-| ticle of ball. : | MOB VIOLENCE AND LYNCH LAW DENOUNCED In the last moments of the Republi- can State Convention in Macon, on the 12th; the Honorable Judson W. Lyons introduced the following resolution and ‘it was unanimously adopted: “Resolved: That the delegates from Georgia to the Republican Natfonal ‘Convention soon to assemble in Chicago, respectfully request that body to in- sert a plank in the platform, denounc- ing that crime of- crimes, mob viol- ‘ence and so called “Lynch Law,” and urging the nation to active efforts for ‘the suppression of this enemy of ctvi- lization and stain to the good name of the Republic. SIMPLE JUSTICE © All honor to the executive. council for its vote of yesterday afternoon voicing its opinion that Miss Jane Lo field, who was discharged x4 rt-noy: rapher from the Medfield State Asy- Jam for causes leading directly from the fact that'she was colored, shoul be reinstated. She certainly shout! be, and it now looks very much as if she would be. The superintendent of this state managed institution declared at the hearing on the Bosfield matter yes- terday that “the question of Miss Bos- field's color had nothing to do with oe ease.” It had everything to do wit the’ case. But for’ her color there would bave-been no ease. This edu- ‘ated girl was Gebarred from the gex- eral dining foom solely because of the objections of the white employees, who should have been told at the beginning that if they did not care to eat with Misg Bosfleld they could quit. The superintendent drew the color line against her, and the “insubordination” plea was wholly dependent upon It. The executrve council has decreed that when a state employee 1s certl- fied by the civil service and gets an appointment, that appointee has the same rights and privileges as other ‘employees, no, matter what his or her color may be. And that is good Bfas- sachusets doctrine—Boston Post, ARREST THREE NUNS IN FLORIDA IN TEST OF NEW SCHOCL LAW St. Augustine, Fla., April 25.—In hat was regarded preliminary steps to test the recently enacted state law meking it iegal for white persons to teach Negroes, three nuns from St. Joseph's convent were placed under technical charges of arrest here yes- terday, They were allowed their freedom on their own recognizance, ‘The charg- es, it was said, were brought at the in- stigation of several Negrees, who sought to test the law, and it was indi- cated that the case probably wonld be carried to the United States Su- preme Court. NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE WEZE. LY LETTER By J. C. Lindsay uy** al government called in the great viirt of Orange, N. J., Thomas A ("0 4. together with a limited num ‘+ of other, great master minds, t bh. ug theif great wisdom {nto play i ihe matter of inventing, if possible submarine destroyers and other naval! devices, which, if successfully done as all believe will be, this, our beloved country, will be as much prepared t¢ ‘protect itself as any country in the elvilized world. Thomas A. Edison who celebrated his 69th birthday a few weeks ago by putfing in ten hours of solid effectual work, was once a poor obscure country boy, with as many handicaps and perhaps more than a number of our boys are having, who spend the greater portion of their ‘time {dling ‘around pool rooms and other questionable resorts. This great human benefactor, Thomas A. Edison, who was born away back in 1847, be- gan early in Ife to think, and when a boy begins to think rightly, it will not be long before others as well as himself will be benefited by his thoughts. To cause the young Negro men to think correctly, 1s one of the main things for which the Negro Bust- ness League stands. The Negro Busi- ness League is really anxious to say something and do something which will help’ the younger men of the race to plan well, and after having planned well, then see to it that their plans are successfully operated. The mind that creates must be a self-renewing dynamo of impélling, an- imating, electrifying thought. Physi- cal health fs the basis. No Young man ig prepared for proper thinking and ef- fectual work whose body Is not in fine physical trim. There is no ques tion xbout it, we simply lose too much sleep, and ax a result of which, our bodies are physically disordered and our minds beclouded, which almost. if not wholly, renders us unable to pey- form our duties as we should. It bap pens that the writer employs a num-, ber of men, some whom once in a while look him squarely in the face and say, “I forgot to get up, I over- to get up on time this morning, I over- slept myself.” Such habits are not the best things for us, the child race in this country. Whether we put our- selves into our brain and build up a great banking institution, a great in- surance company, a great law practice, a great medcantile business or wheth- er we put ourselves into our fingers and build a great brick building or any other of the many scores of what nots, our power of concentration depends on how healthy we are.

This, the Negro Business League joins in with’ the Urban League in calling thé attention of our young men to the im- portance of. putting forth their best endeavors to conserve their own health, as well as to be of assistance to these race-uplifting agencies who are co- operating with the Negro physicians in this community to conserve the health of the race which, 1s so essential to our-proper thinking. It is said that every man who fs able to concentrate his thoughts should have some ultimate end in view based on his talents clear- ly pictured iy his mind for ten or a dozen years ahead: But how about the young man whose mind is beclouded and whose face and eyes, as well as the poor performance” of his- duties, tell of the loes of sleep and the tm- proper eare he fs takings ef himoelf?

THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE. whose rights and privilege it was to be on pne of the buisy streets of Savan- nah, It takes our best to hold our jobs against the great odds we are Placed when we are wide awake and giving our time and talents thereto, but when it comes to driving a dray asleép, Jet the other fellow do that whil we are awake, - It is said of the man who knows bow to work toward his good, that every day's work puts him more min- utely in ne for the advancement which _is bound to come to him. This brings us to this one thought, that no business firm nor vorporation, wishes to keep back or hold down the young man with the elements of success in his system. In proportion as 2 young man makes himself proficient and becomes ac- quainted with the business, in the same’ proportion will the right kind of pro- prietor, president or manager give wages commensurate with the service rendered. I happen to be an humble employee of a corporation which not only invites but urges every worthy young man to come up and make good. Our corporation, like many other sim- ilar concerns, puts every employee upon his own merit. Should you make good you live, should you make good ex- cuses, you dle and Is cast out amonfz those who have forgot how to bring things to pass, and there will be wail- ing and gnasbing of teeth.

This is a moving age. As I told you in my last letter I had the pleasure of looking into the office of the Wage Earners Bank, and riding with the president and his cashier. It is wonderful to see just how much these men are putting into business, and it was to me a source of pleasure to see them and to be with them. They are real first-class bankers, and deserve much good wishes. It is a safe place to put your money, and I was glad I was able to put some there myself. As a race we are making some progress, and this can be seen when, you note the business places in Savannah owned and operated by our people. I could not help look and shout. We are making some rapid progress along all lines, and I am real glad of it. I have been to the State College of South Carolina, and saw the ruins of the fire, and I want here to congratulate the citizens of Orangeburg, for the assistance they rendered. If I have not said what fire, and you may not know what I am talking about, but I will tell you. March 19th after spending a day in the services in the chapel and in church, the teachers and students were in the land of dream, in the land where nothing is known. It was about 1 o'clock in the morning that one of the girls was awakened in Bradham Hall, the girls' dormitory, by the cracking flames. She discovered that the building was on fire, and already the stairway, perhaps the only means of escape had been shut off by the flames. Of course she screamed and that caused others to join with her, and it was not long before all were up screaming, and found that there was no time to lose. The only thing for them to do was to jump, and no time was lost in jumping. Some used umbrellas as parachutes, and landed on the ground, others just jumped. When it was all over the home of the president was turned into a temporary hospital, for 42 girls were injured. Perhaps the worse off of all was Miss Matties J. Battiste, one of the teachers. She had both legs broken and ribs fractured, but she is getting well again and will soon be herself. Dr. R. S. Wilkinson the president, was as busy as could be, and kept his head, and that was a great help to all. The white physicians and colored physicians worked side by side, giving their services, and the white citizens with the colored citizens lost sight of racial prejudice, and rendered assistance to those suffering and this is as God would have it be. At once, the work of rebuilding was begun, and the building will be ready next fall. Not a day has been lost. Claflin school, next door, threw open its doors, sheltered the girls, and some of the Claflin girls shared clothes with the unfortunate girls in the school. Many of the girls who were hurt have been able to return to school and are taking up their work just where they left off. They tell of their experience and what expert jumpers they were and how they are going to continue to study. Brave set of girls. To me a great source of pleasure came to see president Wilkinson and his wife and congratulate them. I I shall not go further into detail just now. I made a flying trip to Charleston. S. C., then over to Beaufort, where I had the pleasure of meeting some strong people. When you talk about Beaufort, it always bring before you Gen. Robert Smalls, who has since gone to his rest, but his name will ever live. I think of what he was able to accomplish. I saw the spot where he was born, in the rear of the great house, and then I walked into the great house, and with tears tried to sing "Praise God from Whom all Blessings Flow." You see, after giving years to the people of the house, and it was in his possession when he died, and now it is occupied by his daughter. Wonderful. He owned more property when he died than his master did when he lived on earth. I am not able to understand this slavery business. I consider this Robert Smalls an example for the young people. He was not born with a book under his pillow, nor was he allowed to use one, but in the face of all this he made his way. He went to congress, and made a record there. He pleaded for his people, and was one of the strong men of America. It was a pleasure to know this. I noted some of the progress made since emancipation. They have a fine school building with good teachers. Those old men purchased land for the school and deeded it to the colored people and they own it to-day. It takes in a block and is just across the street from the white school. The white people would like to see them move, and would put them up a better building if they would turn it over to the city or county. We own the ground and building and are using it for what it was purchased by the exclaves for their sons and daughters. It is to be handed down from generation to generation. Rev. D. W. Bythewood is at the head of the Baptist Church there. He has made his way. Just to think he was born there in town, spent all of his days there, and then left to get his complete education, and for the past 20 years has been pastor of the church. He lives in the heart of his people, because of his good work and his life. He can remain right there the rest of his natural life. It was to me a source of pleasure to meet Mrs. D. W. Bythewood, Dr. C. S. Simpson, Dr. N. J. Kennedy, the principal of the school and all of his teachers, Mrs. Williams, and her friends. Mrs. Williams is the daughter of the late Robert Smalls. Then on to Savannah, Where I spoke in the afternoon to some of the people, and attended a lecture at night delivered by Charles Stewart, at the C. M. E. Church. Met some of the insurance men, and their friends. Visited the office of the Savannah Savings and Realty Corporation, met President Walter S. Scott, called on the undertaker, and left for this place. NEWS O FNATION'S CAPITOL CON- TINED FROM LAST WEEK Washington, D. C.,—A movement is started to erect to the late Miss Mattle A movement is taking form to erect over the grave of the late Miss Mattle R. Bowen a suitable monument, in commemoration of her splendid work for the race and humanity as a teacher and public benefactor. For many years this energetic and unselfish woman devoted herself, not only to giving daily instruction in the schools of the District, but carried on a social settlement work in the poorer sections of the city and founded and conducted, practically at her own expense, the Sejourner Truth Home for the colored women who needed help and substantial sympathy. At a recent memorial to deceased teachers, fostered by Bethel Literary Society, the idea of a monument to mark Miss Bowen's rather neglected grave at Harman Cemetery was put forward by the ever thoughtful Miss A. D. Madre, and it is expected that definite steps will be taken at an early date to have the matter brought to a successful issue. Mrs. K. Bertha Hurst, Mrs. Harry F. Handy and others, of Baltimore, will co-operate in the work, because of Miss Bowen's activity in assisting the colored women of the Monumental City. . . . Baltimore Conference Hold Session The 90th session of the Baltimore conference of the A. M. E. Church convened last week at the Metropolitan A. M. E. Church and the attendance was large and representative. Bishop L. J. Coppin, of Philadelphia, presided. Welcome addresses were delivered at the opening of the session. Rev. J. W. Sanders, of Baltimore responded. Rev. J. Arthur Young of Chestertown, Mr., was principal secretary. Rev. R. C. Ransom of New York City, delivered the "Centennial Oration", which was a gem. Many general officers were in attendance, including Prof. John H. Hawkins, financial secretary, J. I. Lowe of the publication department; Rev. B. F. Watson, secretary of the church extension board and others. Rev. C. H. Steppean was warmly praised for the excellence of the local arrangements and the hospitality extended by the Metropolitan church. The spacious edifice was handsomely decorated with American flags and the galleries were bordered by large photographs of all the Bishops of the connection, living and dead. The conference was one of the most profitable and enthusiastic the church has known for a long time in this section of the country. ```markdown ``` The Broadway Players, featuring Miss Abble Mitchell, Creighton Thompson, Mrs. C. H. Anderson, Laurence Chenault, Will A. Cooke and others equally well-known, come to the Howard next week for an indefinite engagement. The initial presentation will be a successful Broadway production, "Under Cover," now running at the Lafayette Theatre in New York City. As they hold the legal rights to "Within the Law," paying a handsome royalty for the same, it is likely that the Broadway Players will stage this thrilling drama as their second offering at the Howard. * * * Manager Charles Francis Adams spent Sunday in New York City.

Hawkins, of New York City, has been appointed as a printer's assistant in the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. Mr. Hulbert's kindly interest in the matter is exceptionally valuable from the fact that he secured the restoration of Miss Hawkins' name to the civil service eligible list after it had been rejected three times and dropped, according to the law, with the final result that she was given an appointment. * * * Mr. L.G.

Lesson V.—Second Quarter, April 30, 1916. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson, Acts xii, 1-11. Memory Verse, 11-Golden Text, Ps. xxxiv, 7-Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. If the words "about that time" of verse 1 refer to the last four verses of the previous chapter, then it was about the time that Barnabas and Saul were in Jerusalem with the financial help from the believers at Antioch for the saints at Jerusalem. This would appear to be so from the last verse of our lesson chapter, so that we may think of Barnabas and Saul being at the prayer meeting in the house of Mary, who was sister to Barnabas (verse 12: Col. iv. 10). How often the first words of Gen. ill. 1, come to us as we read the Bible story or the story of the world in the daily papers or our own life story? "Now the serpent," for we are reminded by Peter that our adversary, the devil, walketh about seeking whom he may devour (I Pet. v. 8). Satan himself confessed to the Lord that it was his custom to go to and fro in the earth and walk up and down in it (Job 1, 7; if. 2). Paul tells us that our conflict is not so much with what we see as with the invisible powers of darkness, and therefore we need the whole armor of God (Eph. vl. 10-19). Herod was a good servant of the devil and did quite a bit of work for him when he killed James and put Peter in prison (verses 1-3). On that last night ere our Lord was crucified. He told His followers that they might expect to be put out of the synagogue and even killed for His sake and would surely have tribulation (John xv1, 1. 2. 33). From heaven He sent word, after He had been some time there, that the devil would cast some of them into prison, but being faithful, even if they dled for it, there would be a great reward (Rev. ii, 10). James, being killed, had the gain, the far better, absent from the body present with the Lord, the rest from labor, while Peter, being only imprisoned remained still where the devil could reach him if the Lord should permit. Many, however, would prefer the prison to being killed. As far as soldiers were concerned, Peter seemed to be well guarded, with no possibility of escape, but how often He that sitteth in the heavens laughs at the schemes of men when they take counsel against Him! (Ps. ii, 1-4.) The believers prayed without ceasing to God for Peter, but there seemed to be no answer until the very night before Peter was to be brought forth, probably for execution. The Lord may seem to delay, but when He purposes to do a thing He is never too late. Heaven heard, and the angel came. Peter was asleep chained to two soldiers, and other two kept the door of the prison. How perfectly fascinating to see an angel work! Soldiers and doors and prison walls are no hindrance. The prison is entered; the angel awakens Peter; the chains fall off. Peter puts on some clothing by the aid of the light from the angel and follows his guide, gates and doors opening before them of their own accord, until Peter is at least one street away from the prison, thinking it all a beautiful dream or vision. The angel, having fulfilled his commission, went back to heaven. Blessed ed ministry and, oh, how wonderful! The God of Israel deeth wondrously. Peter soon came to himself and knew that he had been in very deed delivered by a messenger from heaven who never waited to be even thanked for his great kindness. They serve generally uscen and always unthanked. What alled the soldiers? Was it a sleep from the Lord, as in I Sam. xxvi, 12, or a special blindness, as in II Kings vi, 18. Well, it was a deliverance from the Lord, and nothing is too hard or wonderful for Him. (Jer. xxxll, 17). When Peter realized that he was really free and that it was neither dream nor vision he went at once where he knew they would be praying for him. But the damsel who came to the door as he knocked, recognizing Peter's voice, was so glad that she ran in without opening the door and said that Peter was at the gate. Instead of thanking God for answered prayer they told her that she was mad or beside herself. It looked as if they were asking without expecting, as we so often do. She continued to affirm that she was right, and Peter continued knocking, and when finally they did open the door there he was in very deed. What a hubbub they did make! How they did talk! Did you ever hear anything like it after prayer meeting? When they got real social, even though many of them could not speak in the meeting—could not say a word for Him who dled for them. When Peter got them quiet he told what had happened and bade them tell the brethren while he went to Caesarea, perhaps to abide with Phillip or Cornellus and to tell there of this wonderful deliverance. The chapter ends with the death of the keepers and also the death of Herod. An angel delivered Peter and an angel smote-Herod. They are ready for errands of mercy or of judgment. They delight to do the will of God. The word of God grew and multiplied, and so it will till the kingdom comes, for His word will always accomplish His pleasure. He will watch over His word to perform it, and every purpose of the Lord shall be performed (Isa. lv, 11; Jer. 1, 12, R. V.; ll, 20). He cannot fall (Isa. xlii, 4).

The resurrection sermon at 4 o'clock in the morning was an event that shall long be remembered. At 11 o'clock the services were conducted by Rev. Green. His sermon was very instructive and many good examples were given, much interest was shown in the baptism which was very impressive. These was a large gathering of visiting ministers, deacons and members from the various churches at the communion service, which was very impressive. The exercise at night by the Sunday school was very creditable to the school and its teachers. The revival is still being carried on with much success. SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH Second Baptist Church. President and Houston streets. Rev. W. Bolivar Davis, pastor. On last Sunday the services were very good. The Sunday school is doing remarkably well. It now has an entry large number of scholars, old and young, who seem to be intensely interested in the move for a more efficient Sunday school. The B. Y. P. U. Is also doing much to inspire the younger members to do active service in the church. The Bible Conference began its session Monday April 24 and will continue until tomorrow.

You are invited to worship with us. ST. BENEDICT'S CHURCH Eleven new members were received into the church Sunday night. Very Rev. L. Lissner performed the ceremony. Before he started the liturgical prayer he explained in very appropriate words the significance and necessity of the sacrament of baptism. Baptism is the door to the other sacraments and by it we are born to Jesus Christ. By confirmation we grow in spiritual life. The holy Eucharist feeds us and penance cures us. Extreme Unction effaces the remalings of sin, renews the energies of soul and prepares for everlasting life. Holy Order perpetuates in the church the ministers of the sacraments and matrimony provides for the propagation and sanctification of the christian society. On Easter Sunday the decoration of the sanctuary and High Altars was at its best; numerous candles and electric lights; surrounded by the most fragrant flowers, were like a strong imitation for the faithful to raise their hearts to God and praise Him. A very large congregation had met to witness the ceremony. Reserved seats had been provided for the baptismal candidates and their sponsors. When the baptismal ceremony was over benediction with the blessed sacrament was given and a final hymn was sung by the whole congregation. Next Friday the blessed sacrament will be exposed all day. Benediction at 6 p. m. At 6:45 a. m. mass and reception of holy communion in honor of the Sacred Heart. During the coming month the usual May devotions will take place on week days, I. d., Rosary and Litanies recited during mass at 6:45 a. m. Devotion toward the most amiable mother acts powerfully on the most indifferent christian. No one can love Mary and remain an enemy of her divine son, our dear Lord Jesus Christ. The sacrament of confirmation will be administered by Right Rev. Bishop Kelley at St. Anthony's Mission on April 20th, at 3 p. m. There will be no evening service at St. Benedict's for the occasion. We exhort most earnestly all the members of the parish to witness this very impressive ceremony. On the first Sunday in May our new convents will receive first communion as a preparation to the reception of confirmation to be administered to them later on during the same month. BROWNSVILLE BAPTIST CHURCH The Brownsville Baptist Church closed its twenty-eighth anniversary on last Monday night with a banquet which was greatly enjoyed by the members and friends present. Rev.

NATIONAL LEAGUE APPOINTS ORGANIZER Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, April 24.—In their desire to make the National Negro Business League an organization of direct service to its members and to the race in general, the officers and members of the executive committee, through the co-operation of a friend of Tuskegee Institute and of the late Dr. Booker T. Washington, have decided to send a experienced advertising man into various communities as its representative to organize new local Negro Business Leagues, revive local leagues which have become inactive and help local leagues outline a definite, constructive program for extending the trade of race enterprises through standard advertising and merchandising methods. Beginning May 1st, Mr. Albion L. Holsey who has attained considerable experience as an advertisement writer and all-round advertising man, will begin a whirlwind campaign under the auspices of the National League, covering the South and Southwest. For nearly two years Mr. Holsey has been closely associated with Mr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary of Tuskegee Institute and also secretary of the National Negro Business League, with whom he has worked as an assistant in the business league work.

Text of the Lesson, Acts xi, 19-26; xiii, 1-12 - Memory 'Verses, xiii', 2. 3. Golden Text, Matt. xxviii, 19-Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. Before the Lord Jesus visibly ascended to heaven after He had appeared many times to His disciples during those forty days between His resurrection and ascension and spoke so often of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God He commanded His disciples to go and teach all nations what He had taught them; to go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature; to proclaim repentance and remission of sins in His name among all nations. And He sent them, as the Father had sent Him, in the power of the Holy Spirit that people might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and, believing, have life through His name (Acts 1, 1-3; Matt. xxvill, 19, 20; Mark. xvl, 15; Luke xxiv, 47; John xx, 21, 31). The disciples were slow to obey this command, and the Lord permitted Stephen to be killed, a persecution of the saints to follow, and the believers thus scattered abroad went everywhere preaching the word, but only to the Jews. Some went as far as Antioch, and everywhere they preached the Lord Jesus, and the hand of the Lord being with them a great number believed and turned unto the Lord (verses 19-21). In the chapters which we have already studied in this book of the Acts of a risen and ascended Christ through His witness we have seen how Peter and John at Stephen and Philip and Paul, and now these scattered abroad ones all have the same tople—namely, Jesus Christ crucified, risen, ascended and returning to set up His kingdom. And as they thus speak of Him the Spirit inclines many to turn to Him, and they become joined to or added to the Lord. Thus His body, the church, began to grow, as the word of God grew and multiplied (xii, 24). The one only calling of the believer is to proclaim Jesus Christ and win people to Him, that His Eve may be builted and the marriage of the Lamb come, for only after that will His kingdom come. If denominations and societies and the so called boards could sink their self seeking and see and seek Jesus only and His kingdom so much more might they see of His good hand upon them. When the brethren at Jerusalem heard of the good work at Antioch they sent Barnabas, true son of consolation, full of the Holy Ghost and of faith, and when he came and saw what the grace of God had done he was glad. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ is briefly but fully set forth in II Cor. vill, 9, which with Rom. ill, 24; Eph. ill, S, 9; Tit. ill, 11; ill, 4-7, and other passages teach us that the benefits of the finished work of Jesus Christ are for Jew and gentle alike, without exception, and that without any works of ours or any merit whatever on our part, any and every sinner truly receiving Jesus Christ becomes a part of Him, has in him eternal redemption and may become a messenger to win others to Him. Barnabas and Saul, having been sent twelve apostles nor one of the committee of seven, but just a Levite of the country of Cyprus, who became a true believer and handed himself and his possessions honestly over to the Lord for His services (Acts iv, 36, 37). It is not necessary to be on the board or on the committee nor an elder or a deacon or a trustee, but it is necessary to be saved by grace and then to be in His hand for His pleasure, seeing no one but Jesus only. So Barnabas exhorted the believers to cleave unto the Lord with purpose of heart (verses 22-24), and much people was added unto the Lord. May we see Jesus only and sing, "Ever, only, all for Thee." The last we heard of Saul was that he had returned to Tarsus (chapter ix, 27-30), but Barnabas evidently has him much on his heart, for he went to Tarsus and found him and brought him to Antioch and for a whole year taught the believers there more fully of Jesus Christ (verses 25, 26). Either as a term of honor or reproach believers were first called Christians at Antioch. The affix "ilan" may signify nothing more than "belonging to," but I like the suggestion of some one that a Christian is one who can truly say, "Christ is all," and, as the letters of the affix suggest, "I am nothing." Barnabas and Saul, having been sent to Jerusalem with an offering from the salants at Antioch, in due time returned and continued to minister to the Lord there (chapters xl, 27:30; xii, 25; xiii, 13). As they thus continued the Holy Ghost called for the separation of Barnabas and Saul for a special work to which He had called them. So with fasting and prayer and laying on of hands they were sent forth by the Holy Ghost and preached the word of God at Salmins, in Cyprus. Saul had, no doubt, been a good witness at Tarsus and now Barnabas has a life privilege in his native Island. Note that John Mark sister's son to Barnabas was with them (verse 5; Col. 4-10). The principal thing to note is that all was under the control of the Holy Spirit (verses 2, 4, 9). always the director i all that is truly the work of the Lord All true ministry must be unto the Lord, to glorify Him (I Pet. iv, 11).
