VOLUME XXXI
Will Play For Sweet Charity
BUSINESS MENS' BASEBALL GAME WEDNESDAY
Many Down and Outers will be Seen In Game for Old Folk's Home
The great "Battle around Verdun" will be staged at Athletic Park next Wednesday afternoon at 4 o'clock. Teams composed of Savannah's leading business men to clash on the dlamon. Laughter and good cheer will reign supreme as the "old-timers," halt and limp with the weight of years, try to "hit 'em out", pick 'em up" or "put 'em over."
Players will wear full uniforms and will dress in the club house at the park. Uniform and other paraphernalia will be furnished. See large placards displayed for line ups and details.
It will be worth a dollar to see the "generals," "leutenants" and other officers in uniform. A majority of them will tip the scales at over 200, so it will be a "big game." Managers Generals H. T. Singleton and Geo. W. Jacobs are working out their teams, largely by giving them theory and lectures on baseball strategy and art. A system of new rules is being worked out. "Big men" are not to be canned for falling down or failing to field ground balls. A prize of one dollar is offered for every bat broken in the game. This rule is expected to induce some heavy slugging. Spectators are not expected to laugh at players whose clothes do not fit.
Any player questioning any decision of the umpire (whether said decision is or is not in conformity with the established rules) shall be banished from the game "instanter."
Players whose uniforms are not very-roomy are not expected to "slide" to base.
Players are not entitled to no more than one glass of water per inning, as fatigue and exhaustion might result.
Upon his first appearance at the bat, each player is required to raise his cap to the ladies in the grand stand, and to always "doff his lid" in response to applause.
Tickets are very generally distributed, the cause is worthy and every receiving man, woman and child should buy one.
There will be a strong relief corps to players—slightly younger looking but none—the less stiff of joint—to plug up the gaps made by players knocked out.
It is urged by the promoters that players will report at the park club house not later than 3:30 p. m. to put on uniforms.
It is expected that many ladies, whether they know the grand old game or not, will come out to share the fun. Admission will be 15 cents to all. Below is given the line ups.

SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, SATURDAY JULY 22, 1916
BAPTIST YOUNG PEOPLE WILL PROBABLY UNITE NEXT NOVEMBER
COMMISSION FROM GENERAL STATE CONVENTION TO ARRANGE MERGER
Both Wings Hold Rousing Meeting
DR. GEORGE E. HAYNES DELIVERS SERIES OF LECTURES
All Southern States Well Represented Among Teachers
The summer school at Hampton Institute has just closed one of its most successful years. The attendance was larger than last year. All southern states had large representations among the teachers and there were a considerable number from other sections. North Carolina had the largest number, there being 188 teachers enrolled from that state.
Among the good things enjoyed was a series of lectures and discussions conducted by Dr. George E. Hayues, one of the executive secretaries of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes and professor of Social Science at Fisk University. These lectures attracted much attention and favorable coment from all sides. This course of lectures discussed the causes of and methods to check the migration of colored people from the country to the city; occupation and wages and how to organize Negro occupations for improving efficiency and wages. The course closed with the discussion of tuberculosis, hook-worm and typhoid fever in their connection with wages and low grade of intelligence and low standard of living among colored people.
Thru the whole series of lectures Dr. Haynes made application of the information to actual conditions in rural and town localities where the teachers are working. Many of the teachers conferred with the lecturer from day to day about problems in their own communities. So pleased were the teachers that at the closing lecture they tendered the speaker a rising vote of appreciation and thanks and pledged active co-operation in the community betterment movement he is leading. These lectures are a part of a plan for promoting community betterment as a part of the extension work carried on by the National League and Fisk University. Similar lectures have been given the past two summers at A. and I. State Normal, Nashville, Tenn., Florida State College, Tallahassee, Fla.; Tuskegee Institute, Ala.; Virginia Union University, Richmond, Va., and West Virginia Colored Institute Summer School.

Dr. P. J. Bryant of Atlanta Would Probably Have Been Chosen Head of B. Y. P. U. If the two Wings Had Effected a Merger.
The Baptist young people of the state, met here Tuesday in what had been expected, by many to be the last time before the old and new wings of the denomination would be merged into one big, influential and powerful body. It had been rumored on all sides that the actual unification of the two convention a would take place this week, but instead, the time for the merger has been deferred till November when the General State Baptist convention meets in Augusta. Things seem to be pointing to a successful termination of the split until after Wednesday night's session when it was apparent that all forces in the new wing of the convention, the General Baptist B. Y. P. U., meeting at the First Bryan Baptist church, were not in accord and that trouble was brewing.
The old wing, the Missionary Baptist B. Y. P. U. convention, which is meeting at the Second Baptist church, was unanimous for a union of the two bodies and was heartily in favor of the plan for union which was presented by a joint commission of the two bodies selected some time ago. The commissioners' recommendations were ratified by this wing, but before the recommendations were placed before the other (new) convention, the latter took occasion to adopt a resolution presented by Rev. C. T. Walker of Augusta, referring the matter of a merger to a commission of the General Baptist Convention of Georgia, which meets in Augusta next November.
All day Friday silent forces were at work trying to make some kind of compromise which would allow the union to be effected at this meeting, but up to last night, their efforts were of no avail. While both the old and new conventions were agreed as to the necessity of the union of the two factions yet several of the more influential members of the latter were opposed to a merger at this time. The real bone of contention is apparently one which involves the presidency of the combined body, should the merger be placed.
The old wing was solid for the Rev. P. J. Bryant for this position but many of the new convention leaders did not seem to favor this choice although Rev. Bryant is a member of their faction. This opposition killed the chances for unification at this session and the matter therefore has been deferred till November. Both B. Y. P. U conventions are having excellent sessions and are attended by about five hundred delegates, the new convention having about three hundred and the old about two hundred. Along with the B. Y. P. U. convention met the Sunday school convention of each wing, the latter being attended in most cases by the same delegates as the B. Y. P. U.
The meetings convened Tuesday night when addresses of welcome and responses were delivered. Taken all in all, the sessions have been the most harmonious in years and were about as largely attended as any previous meeting. The final sessions of both conventions will meet to morrow. All old officers in both conventions were re-elected.

NUMBER 37
Berean Association At Waycross
HELD THE BEST SESSION IN MANY YEARS
All the Old Officers were Unanimously Re-elected
Waycross, Ga., July 13—The Berean Baptist Association convention convened here in its seventeenth annual session at the First African Baptist church, at ten o'clock this morning, of which Rev. A. R. Starling is pastor, Rev. Wm. Gray of Savannah, the moderator, presided.
After devotions had been conducted the introductory sermon by Rev. R. H. Thomas, of Savannah was preached. His subject was "The source of wisdom." The afternoon session was excellent. The moderator delivered his annual address, which seemed to have met the approval of all the delegates. Following the address the rule was suspended and he was elected to succeed himself unanimously, also the old officers as follows: Rev. Wm. Gray, moderator, Savannah, Ga.; Rev. L. Bonds, vice-moderator, Savannah, Ga.; Rev. R. G. Carter, clerk, Darien; Rev. Daniel Wright, treasurer, Savannah; Rev. J. W. Edwards, Missionary, Savannah; Rev. A. I. Hamilton, school agent, Savannah:
The night session was opened with a spirited song and prayer service. Following this, Rev. D. W. Cannon, secretary of education, was introduced and presented the claims of education in a masterly way. The moderator then introduced Rev. N. M. Clarke, of Savannah, who preached an able doctrinal sermon on the subject "The higher table spread." The message was indeed a treat and a blessing to all that heard it. After this the delegates were made welcome, on behalf of the church by Miss Geneva Parland, on behalf of the missionary society by Miss Mildred Starling, on behalf of the Evangelical Ministers' Union by Rev. Prof. N. L. Black. Then the congregation was favored with a solo by Miss Daisy Finellen. Rev. W. Bolivar Davis followed with the response to the addresses of welcome and in a humorous strain accepted the hospitality and generosity of the good people of Waycross.
Friday morning's session, after devotions, was taken up by the reading of church letters and just before the adjournment Dr. D. D. Crawford of Atlanta, corresponding secretary of the Baptist State Convention, was introduced and entertained the delegates for thirty minutes, presenting the state work and the state's needs. The afternoon session was taken up with rebuttals and resolutions. Friday night the delegation with the audience listened to a splendid sermon by Rev. A. W. Wilder of Savannah on "Work while it is day."
A short session was held Saturday morning bringing up unfinished business and with a "joy that comes with a hearty welcome" the delegates that remained in the city were entertained with a banquet by Rev. A. R. Starling and his good people. The association ended with a record for the best session in many years.
PEKIN THEATRE
The pictures at the Pekin Theatre this week were indeed worth seeing. The house will put on next week some of the best pictures produced. "The girl and the game" is the name of a series of fifteen chapters which are thrilling and exciting. There is only one chapter played each week. On Wednesday night the fifth chapter will be played and it will so continue each Wednesday night until the entire series has been produced. If you want to see some real good pictures visit the Pekin, for they are giving their patrons first class films. The vaudeville bill for next week will also be of a high type and very classy.

JULY WEATHER BRINGS OUT COOL FROCKS
Sport; Costumes Vie for-Favor with the Fittest of Lingerie Dresses
TAILORED HATS LARGE AND
SPARCELY TRIMMED
New York, July 14,—July lived up to tradition this year, affording us an opportunity to wear our sheerest lingerie frocks and our smartest sports costumes during the holidays. The nearby resorts were crowded on the Fourth, which chanced to be an ideal day, with well dressed men and women. A tiny flag, or a bit of red, white and blue, was a detail of most costumes; the men wore it on coat label, in hat band, or protruding from a pocket; the women pinned it daintly to the underbodice of the sheer blouse or frock. from where its color shown out softly and effectively; or tucked a small flag into the girdle of the white frock, or into the pocket of the sports coat

Middy Blouse and Serge Skirt Our patriotism was just a little more pronounced than usual this year, owing, no doubt, to the rumors of war which have been coming to us lately, and the military preparations going on about us. Summer Costumes Combine Comfort and Charm
There were not many among the holiday crowds, however, who looked uncomfortablely "dressed-up"; Fashion has at last managed to combine comfort and grace and charm. The sports costume predominated; varied styles of middy and Russian blouses were worn with the trim fitting skirts; chic suits of striped and plain mohair, pongee or linen, with Norfolk coats and pleated skirts, were favored; and sweater coats, with self or contrasting skirts, were also popular. The middy blouse costumes were developed in the regulation white linen, duck or galatea, with collar or cuffs of blue and skirts of the new striped cotton novelties, mohair, or plain white linen. The modified Russian and "slip-on" blouses favored the white and colored Japanese silks, pongee, plain or figured Shantung, or Georgette, and were usually combined with skirts of thin, light or dark silks. One especially pretty costume developed in plain natural colored pongee, trimmed and compined with a skirt of thin, light or dark silks. One especially pretty costume developed in plain natural colored pongee, trimmed and combined with a skirt of dark blue foulard dotted with bright green, is illustrated here. It is a slip-on model with cools becoming sleeves, and an effective collar. The skirt is a simple gathered design short and full, but unusually graceful.
The plain white Russian blouse costume of Georgette crepe is particularly effective and cool for these hot summer days, and perfectly appropriate for summer evening wear at roof garden, or summer show. The simple voiles, too, are being developed in charming models with a touch of black, or a bright color at girdle or throat. The new voiles are washable in most mixtures, and generally satisfactory.
Cool Frocks for Street Wear
Dark blue in taffeta, Georgette, serge and satin is the leading color for city street wear, in spite of its apparent warmth. As most of these frocks, however, are made with wide or self-colored transparent sleeves, they are in reality quite as cool as a light colored frock. Dark blue Georgette is often used for the entire dress, collared and cuffed with taffeta, and trimmed with a band or two of taffeta on the skirt. "The straight-lined, one-piece serges which one meets so often on the avenue these days—for there are many smart costumes to be seen on the avenue owing to the lure of the shops, and motor in frequently to visit them—are often trimmed effectively with braid or beads, in designs worked out
in colors. For instance, a dark blue serge and Georgette frock seen a day or so ago, had an odd, applique design in blue velvet trimming the jumper, which was of serge; the design, which was a small leaf was repeated on the collar and cuffs. Sashes, which are a feature of both linen and serge frocks this summer, offer a pleasing opportunity for introducing a bit of colored embroidery. The sash on the
© MCCALL
Slip-on Blouse and Foulard Skirt serge frock is generally of black satin and the embroidery is worked out in colored wool, soutache grail or beads. These motifs may be as bizarre as desired and are often repeated in the trimming of the hat.
Variety in Tailored Hats
It is no longer the price of the hat which counts, for there are some very inexpensive hats being worn just now by the best dressed women, but the chic of the coloring and trimming which is important. For instance the soft, light weight Bankok, the WenChow, and the chair-cane hats are all favored, finished with just a touch of colored wool, beads, or a bright bit of applique embroidery which harmonizes with the suit or frock.
One of the smartest hats seen this season was a dark tan Wen-Chow with one of the new quartered crowns in dark purple satin, trimmed with a motif in delf blue and white Chinese embroidery. A purple satin hand-bag with another blue and white motif completed the effect, which was charming. This hat and bag were worn with a dainty little corded frock of tan crepe de Chine, made with a petticoat of cream hatiste embroidery which showed just a bit below the silken skirt.
AN OPEN LETTER
It was a pleasant experience, now a month ago, to drop into your hospitable home for the purpose of saying the vacation "good bye" to your parents to find myself unexpectedly an unbidden but not, I felt, an unwelcome guest at a little gathering in honor of your attaining your majority. I still recall the dainty reflection, the pleasant company, the music, and some little horse-play which recalled my past years, and which served to accentuate the purpose of the evening. For a too brief moment I was reviewing my own youth.
And I rejoiced as I learned of your scholastic prowess, and I was happy with your parents and proud of you as I was told that the evening was possible because your rank excused you from all your term examinations.
hel you that evening, and enjoyed you in the successes you have won, and thought of your opening manhood, and of the promise before you. I saw frequently that hour, not you but another lad of about your years. Had he been in your classes, I am confident he would have kept pace with you. I am not sure but that he might have shown you a clean pair of heels. Could you forget certain conventions in your day and your section, I am not sure but that you could chum with him, as were I his age, I should be glad to myself.
I am not writing to ask you to forget or to forego any of our local conventions, altho I have the feeling that some of them are being rather rudely shaken as the European war, drags out its full length. I am hoping for a larger expression of the Democratic spirit as the outcome or one of the outcomes of that tremendous struggle. Whether the Germans will succeed in enlarging their territory to "offset the hate engendered in the minds of their antagonists by the war"; or whether the Allies will be able to force Germany to a "pre-war-status" are questions still undecided. One thing I am
confident of; and that is, that when the war is concluded every European nation will endeavor to make friends of all the people within their respective boundaries. I expect Russia to fraternize with the Finnish, her Polish, and her Jewish subjects. I expect Germany to be on good terms with German Poland. I expect the British Empire to settle the Irish question fairly and squarely. And, I expect the United States will take the suggestion and will enlarge her idea of Democracy.
But just now I simply wish to remind you, my dear boy, that the native city and the native state of my young friend referred to have given to you an adopted citizen, eight years of preparation for life which they have denied him, native-born. This puts you in the class of privilege.
I have no quarrel, with you at this point. You have made good use of your privileges up to date. What I do wish to say is, that you are now a man; and that you can express your opinion by ballot. My young friend is also a man; he is rather older than you, and he has the ballot. But with this difference. You can express your self at the white primary, and he cannot. That he cannot, makes his vote merely register your decision, and this is a practical nullification of his citizenship.
Once, and only once in all the years that I have been hammering at this southern problem have I had a personal acquaintance in public office. Upon his election, I wrote him a letter of congratulation; expressing my regret that I was not a citizen of his ward; I called his attention to the fact that questions concerning the status of my friends were bound to come before him as a city official. And I urged upon him, that if he could not enlarge his sphere of activity within which my friends were allowed to operate, he would be rigid in resisting any endeavor to further restrictions. The only reply that I had to my letter came in the cutting off the eighth grade of all the schools with no corresponding opportunity elsewhere for my friends. I am led to the thought that it is not always safe to ask a man to act in a certain way if the occasion arises. But I venture again. The opportunity may come to you, and how soon no one may predict to throw your influence toward a wider application of the Democratic idea than now holds in this city, state and section. May I not expect that you will throw your influence toward the abolition of privilege, and toward the elevation of my friend to an equal status with yourself in matters of citizenship?
Sincerely yours. Edgar H. Webster Principal Normal Dept., Atlanta Univ
BASEBALL DOPE
Double header Monday. Roosters vs Savannah Home boys.
Hampdon made a poor showing in the box in Monday's game and made the Piney Wood easy pickins for the Roosters.
Coker played a good game for the stars on Monday. He fielded well, got two hits and did remarkably fine base running. His steal of home was great.
Eugene Howell, Jenkins and "Tutt" Bailey were given their release by the executive board on Monday night.
It is said that Howell will play with the Eureka. He will add greatly to the team.
"Tutt" Baley is undecided as to what team he will sign up with. Wonder if Tutt's holding out for a deal? We can't see it coming.
The Piney Wood-Eureka game for next Wednesday has been called off on account of the former's annual picnic. The business men's game will be played on that day. See the lineup on the large placards telling of the event.
There was a player they called "Big Hoggy" in center field for the Roosters Monday. He took good care of the garden.
The Eurekas are arranging for a series of games with an out-of-town team. Watch for the advertisement and give the boys a good attendance.
The double header Monday should be a drawing card. Ladies free.
Umpire Warner was way off in his decisions on Wednesday. Put on glasses Bud. you may see better.
It looked bad for the Home Boys in Wednesday's game until the last man of the Urban League team was down.
With the score tied in the ninth. "Perfect" Perry blanked his opponents, then came in and knocked a double

and scored on Park's single to left, thus winning the game for his team.
Giddens is the name of the Home Boys' new first sacker. He pulled off two beautiful bone-head plays on Wednesday.
Thomas pitched well on Wednesday, but there was no one to hold him. Look around for a catcher, Manager Lemon.
The managers should see to it that the players are on the-diamond early so as not to delay the starting of the games.
President Butler should have a talk with Umpire Warner. It's much needed.
Henry Thompson, the new third sacker of the Urban League, proved the batting star in Wednesday's game, getting four hits out of five times up.
By again admitting ladies free to the games, the gate receipts have already taken an upward shot. The boys play faster and with more life when the fair ones are watching them.
What would the league do without the dependable services of Dr. Middleton as scorer? Get another
Capt. "Splitfire" Simms, of the Urban League starred in Wednesday's game. His work at short was sensational.
The Adelphias are still holding first place.
The Eureka team is to be reckoned with from now until the end of the league on Labor day.

The proposed monument to the memory of the first Baptist modern foreign missionary, Rev. George Lisle, is to be paid for from donations in small amounts from Negro Baptists throughout the world. It will be erected in Savannah, Ga., from which Rev. Lisle sailed for Jamaica in 1783.
The board hopes to have the base of this monument made up of stones one from each state, territory, province, island and country in which there is a Negro Baptist church, association or convention.
We plan to unveil and dedicate this memorial during the session of the National Baptist Convention in September. We trust that the Baptist in every state, through their presidents, will co-operate with us in this worthy and laudable project.

The split has greatly effected the work here. While I write you starvation is facing our little band of 30. We have just a little rice, and when we shall have eaten it I do not know what we shall do. We have eaten all the cassava which we planted last year and bought eddose three times since Miss Taylor left. I suppose we must be at bedrock in mission work. The Father alone knows just how we shall get along during the rainy season. We have planted, some corn and are now planting rice; eddose and cassava In the morning we teach and work in the evening on the farm."
July 30th is a fifth Sunday. The Foreign Mission Board is appealing to churches and pastors for a special offering one hour that day. This will go to aid in the completion of the Bible and Industrial building, Bassa, Liberla, W. C. Africa, and relieving our workers everywhere. Brother Pastor, just think what it will mean if only 1000 of the 18000 Negro Baptist churches will heed this appeal. Will you be one?

For President
CHARLES E. HUGHES
of New York
For Vice-President CHARLES W. FARBANKS of Indiana
That the Baptist young people of the state were confidently looking for a merger of their two Sunday school and B. Y. P. U. conventions was apparent on all sides many weeks before the conventions met here Tuesday in their annual sessions. A union of the bodies means more strength, a greater amount of effective work accomplished and infinitely more satisfaction within their ranks. The real purpose of these organization is to teach the young people how to better their manner of living, how to become more effective workers in the great battle for young christian workers. This purpose can best be taught by a united convention, for as long as their is a split there will be a waste of energy by each side on matters which would be of little moment were the two factions together. A united body, therefore, is very essential to the best interest of the great Baptist hosts in the state and if left to the popular vote of the adherents of each convention we believe that a union of the two factions would be the inevitable result. It should not be a matter of who is to lead, who is to have the position of honor, but rather to do that one thing which is of greatest value to the young people of the denomination—to unite the factions and throw into the field one mighty convention of workers the size of which only the Baptist can summon. The leaders of our young Baptist people should put self under subjection and do that which is of the greatest good for the denomination. The time is now at hand when proper leadership is imperative in religion as well as in state. The great throng of our young Baptist people wish to unite and their desires along this line should be met fairly and squarely by the leaders among them.
From time to time The Tribune has appealed to its readers in behalf of a movement which has been on foot for several years, to erect a home for indigent old people and orphan children. Again we call our readers' attention to the urgent need of such an institution in our midst. Seldom a day passes but what we are not brought face to face with the awful fact that as yet there has been no accommodation made by us for such a home. The need of such an institution is more forcibly brought before us here than in any city that we know of, because in other places indiscriminate begging on the streets is forbidden by law but here those who desire to appeal to the public by asking alms on the public thorofares are permitted to do so. We wonder has it ever occurred to many of us as to what would be the fate of many of these indigent people if they were refused the privilege of begging on the street. There is no home to which they might apply and be welcomed and chances are that if they were not taken in by some kind hearted person they would suffer greatly for the want of proper sustenance for their bodies and raiment to wear. There is among us an organization which hopes soon to secure sufficient funds to erect a home for these people on a plot of ground which was purchased several years ago. This organization needs the help of every Negro man and woman. It is an organization which, if supported, will rid our streets of the many sorrowful sights we perceive daily and which should actuate us all to do every thing in our power for the good of these unfortunate ones among us. Other people have adequate accommodation for those among them who cannot take care of themselves. We likewise should be mindful of our indigent and care for them in a way that would be a credit to us as a people. We realize that every one cannot give liberally in these hard times but every mile to the cause means a great help toward securing this greatly needed institution.
Next week will present an opportunity for every body to help this cause along by attending the business men's ball game at the baseball park, which is given for the benefit of this home. The cause of the game should appeal to us all and we should at least purchase a ticket for this event and thereby show our willingness to do something for these among us who are less fortunate than we.
VOLUNTEERS WANTED
Savannah is a beautiful city and the awakening of its civic pride has been shared in a consideraebl degree by its colored citizens.
No part of it shows up with more satisfaction to the eye than the beautiful homes that have been erected, and those that are in course of erection.
Step by step we are progressing. Better homes and better sanitary conditions in and around our homes seem to be the keynote of every home builder and each one tries to improve on what his friend or neighbor has done.
All this should receivethe highest commendation of every lover of the race and should be an inspiration to the many who have not conceived the idea of making for the health, comfort and happiness of his family.
Homes open to air and sunlight with special attention to cleanliness beget health and yet, sickness and disease are constantly invading them and the most well-appointed one becomes inadequate to the needs of the slick.
Here is where a well regulated hospital, with all modern conveniences and equipment becomes a necessity. A hospital with modern improvements such as private rooms embodying all of the comforts of the homes from which many of us come and with better facilities for coping with the maladies that affect us, at a moderate cost to those who can pay—a hospital where our poor and needy can go and get more than their homes afford in intelligent care. We want them to have nice airy wards in summer and good comfortable warmth in winter. A hospital with a maternity ward where delicate expectant mothers can go and be quiet and receive more care than is possible in the home. A hospital with an isolation ward where such cases as are allowed may be taken and thereby free the homes from fear for little ones who might be affected by contact with the sick: a hospital with electric lights and gas, a heating plant, stationary laundry tubs and mangle, a morgue to keep in decency those whom God has seen fit to take away from us until we can receive them for final care—a hospital where the sons of many of our homes can some day form their own elkies for the greater research, larger study and more thorough knowledge of human ailments with the one great purpose in view—the betterment of mankind. A hospital that will be a moral, spiritual and physical inspiration to our children and a memorial to the colored people of Savannah.
We want it to be known as the Memorial Hospital in which shall be a memorial room with a base three feet high on which shall be inscribed the name of every person who gives one dollar or more. This memorial base shall stand as long as the hospital stands.
We want each child in Savannah to share in the building of this hospital and have his name on the Memory roll that is to be put in the corner stone. Three cents for each year from 1 to 15 years entitles a child to registration on the Memory Roll.

| xiii, 13—Commentary Propared by
| Rev. D. M. Stearne, = i
It ts only in this:epistle to those
‘Whom he calls babes and: earnal Chris-
tians that he makes any Reference to.
the matter of “tongues” which somé’
believers make so much of in our day,
and when he does mention them they
are last on the lst and In connection
cwith the interpretation of tongues
(ebapter xii, 7, 10, 28). He also cays,
“Let him that speaketh in an unknown
tongue pray that he may interpret,”
and “I had rather speak fve words
with my understanding, that I might
teach others also, than ten thousand
words in an unknown tongue” (chapter
xiv, 13,19). ‘The more excellent way of
Love he sets before us in our lesson
chapter. The great chapter on Faith is
Heb. x1, where the word is used over
twenty times. The great chapter on
Hope is Rom. vill, and this is one of
the great Love chapters, but as to the
‘uuse of the word, if we incinde the verb
-and the noun “beloved,” it {s found in
I John iv aboyt thirty times, while in
Jobn“xiy and pur lesson chapter it ts
used nine times in each, if I have
-eounted correctly.
We are certainty safe in saying that
there is no topic in the whole Bible so
| Wonderful as the love of God, but the
great matter is always the love of God
to us, never our Jove to Him, which is
‘not worth mentioning compared with
His love to us. John is not spoken of
as the disciple who loved Jesus, but the
disclple whom Jesus loved. It is not
| the love of Martha and Mary and Laz
'arus, but “Jesus loved Martba and
Mary and Lazarus” (John xf, 5; xili, 23;
} xix, 26; ix, 2; xxi, 7, 20). The words
that hold me most strongly are such as
these: “The Son, of God, who loved me
and gave Himsbif‘for me.” “Having
loved His own,.* * * He loved them
unto the end; ofthe uttermost.” “I
have loved thee with an everlasting
love” (Gal. ii, 20; Jobu xiii, 1; Jer.
xxxi, 3). These, with Eph. v, 25; John
iM, 16; the many ‘verses in I John iif
and iv, snd Song vii, 7, are to me some
of the most wondérful, with John xv, 9.
The first three fesson verses show
the utter wortbledsiess of tongues, or
teaching, or undersfanding mysteries,
or knowledge, or miracles, or giving
| all our goods to feed the poor, or even
our bodies to be burned, apart from
love. What a complete lasing low of
| all that men mighf boast of that the
love of God may bp magnified and His
love constraining /us and working in
tus the works He-has prepared for us.
| There is no room for boasting nor for
any pride of man because af his abill-
| ty to do this or/that. ‘The Lord alone
| must be exalted. Such love as is here
described in yur memory verses, 4-7,
was nedee fully manifest in any one
except in Jesus Christ, but He is able
‘to manifesf it in us.
It Js no“doubt true that all the fruit
of the Shirit in Gal. v, 22, 23, is but
different manifestations of love, joy
Delng,love exulting, peace love in re-
pase, und so on. According to Col.
4, 11, it requires all the might of His’
glorious power to make us patient and
Jong sufferjng with Joyfulness, but He
is able to work all this in us if we
wili Jet Him. "To be kind always, free
| from all goo opinion of ourselves or
envy of ptherx, never provoked, never
thinktng/nor speaking evil of any one,
bearing’ and enduring all things for
His sike—what a heavenly life! Yet
do ‘not turn from it or say it cannot
| bé done, but rather turn to Him and
“say, “Lord, do thou it in-me for Thy
at name's sake.” All our knowl-
ge now ts but partial, and if any
man think that he knoweth anything
he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to
| know (verses 9, 10; chapter viif, 2).
| We may know that we have become
children of God by faith in Christ Je-
sus and gladly sing, “I know that my
Redeemer liveth” (Gal. fli, 13-26; Job
xix, 25), but of the life we are yet to
live und the unseen realities of His
‘kingdom and glory we knaw but little.
There is a lot of childish prattle and
| self conceit we would do well to have
| done with and rather say, “O magnify
the Lord with me, and let us exalt His
/name toxether.” I will extol Thee
my God, O King, and bless ‘Lhy name
forever and ever" (I's, xxxiv, 3; xiv,
1). Note the double contrast of “now”
and “then” in verve 12, and may we by
faith so kuow the power of the “then”
that we shall live better in the “now”

Duty
Masonry lays on us the duty to lead clean, pure, useful lives; that in every condition and circumstance of life we should remember our high calling; that we should know and do charity, not only in the relief of financial distress, but in all the minlrations that love dictates to the just and generous heart; that we should never forget our duties as citizens, and in all the responsibilities of citizenship be true in public and private life; that in the home relations our lives shall be such that content, comfort and happiness shall reign, and that as we journey through life we shall hold aloft the light of truth, making clear the way to those who follow.—Virginia Masonic Journal.
A hundred and forty years ago a consecrated patriot declared that "These are times that try men's souls." It really seems that we are having very much such another time. Such times are the rocky shores and whirlpools and rapid currents which will test the character and Masonic metal of the true Mason. Away back yonder a humble prophet proclaimed, "Blessed are the peace makers." No Mason, as a Mason, ever produced discord and confusion; and it is happy province to promote harmony and union.-The Globe.
* * *
The curse of our present system of Masonry is ignorance. There are many Masons who profess to know all about the catechism yet who never read anything Masonic, not even the great light upon the altar. If asked as to the meaning of any of the symbols, emblems, legends, they appear dumb. They even refuse to read in the by-laws the answers to simple questions, wanting them referred to the Grand Master, imagining that individual to be an infallible walking encyclopedia of law and usage, and a compendium of history, landmark and tradition. One trouble with our present system is that we are not teachings Masons to think, but to remember, and so long as it is possible for a man to stand up and recite ritual by the yard, and receive the plaudits of admiring friends, he has very little desire to search after those things which go to build the fraternity into its high relationship to human activity.—Illinois Freemason.

The mere lapse of years is not life; knowledge, truth, love, beauty, goodness, faith, alone can give vitality to the mechanism of existence.—Marcus Aurelius.
---
Masonry enforces obedience, but it is the obedience of a free man that asserts the Freemason. Masonry asks of its members obedience to certain defined principles, but it requires no blind allegiance to itself, nor any performance of service contrary to the individual conscience, or in conflict with the duties of good citizenship.
---
Make glad the cottage of the poor—
sond sunshine into some dreary soul—
make music, with kind words, for
some sad heart—smoothe the pillow of
suffering—reinforce with religious
cheer the smitten spirit of the mourner
—and when the tale of life is told,
angels will dwell with rapture on its
sunny ecstatic pages.
Never fail to do daily that good
which lies next to your hand. Trust
God to weave your little thread into
the great web, though the pattern
shows it not yet. The grand harvest
of the ages shall come to its reaping,
and the day shall broaden itself to
a thousand years, and the thousand
years shall show them-selves as a perfect
and finished day.
Don't be a Grouch
Don't be a grouch.
Don't grouumble and complain if things don't go to suit you. Remember, other people have opinions, and they are entitled to respect.
If you make a motion in a lodge, and and it doesn't carry, don't make a personal matter of it, and assume an air of injured innocence, and kick up a racket generally. Remember you are not infallible. You have your views. Give the other fellow the right to have his.
The lodge is a miniature world. Every one cannot always have his own way. Be a good loser. We are all brethren, and should always give one another credit for honest motives and good intentions.
The lodge is no place to air private
grievances. When you enter its sacred
precincts, forget religious, political and
social differences, and be a courteous,
upright man and Mason.
Above all—
Don't be a grouch!
The cry of the nations is for peace.
Let Masonry lend its powerful influence
to this great cause.

Lesson V.—Third Quarter, For July 30, 1916.
THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES.
Text of the Lesson, I Cor. i, 18, to ii, 5.
Memory Verses, i, 22-24—Golden
Text, Gal. vi, 14—Commentary
Prepared by Rev. D. M. Staarna.
It is not many weeks since we had a Whitsuntide study in I Cor. ii, and now we are to have three studies in the letters to the Corinthians, with another a few weeks later. The epistles tell us of the church in this age and how we should live to glorify God, and therefore these studies ought to be most helpful. May the Spirit speak to our hearts. Sosthenes, who is associated with Paul in this epistle, was one of the rulers of the synagogue who was privileged to suffer shame publicly for Christ's sake (1, 1; Acts xviii, 17). The church of God at Corinth meant the company of sinners who had become saints by believing the good news concerning Jesus Christ and receiving Him as their Saviour.
How great sinners they had been is seen in chapter vi, 9, 10; but, being purchased with precious blood, they were now in Christ Jesus/saints, washed, sanctified and justified, wholly by the grace of God, apart from any merit or works of theirs (1, 2:4-vi, 11; Acts xx, 28). They were saved by the cross of Christ, which is the power of God (1, 18). Christ Jesus was made unto them, as He is to all believers, wisdom and righteousness and sanctification and redemption (1, 2, 1, c, 30), for all that Christ is before God He makes His redeemed to be. As He is so are we in this world (I John iv, 17), which may mean that as He is before God so He makes His people to be even while we remain in these mortal bodies. There is another truth in this, and that is that as the world regards and treats Him we must expect the same, for we are here for Him, in His name, as His witnesses.
Although the standing before God in Christ of every saved sinner is so absolutely perfect, yet in these mortal bodies we are weakness itself, so that he had to reprove these believers as being carnal because of their entrying and strife and factions, standing for this or that teacher instead of glorying in the Lord alone (1, 29, 31; fil, 1-7, 21; Isa. ii, 22). Because of their unworthy conduct some were weak and sickly and some were dying, forgetting that if we would judge ourselves we might escape much chastening of the Lord (chapter xl, 30-32). We must expect trials, but we shall never have more than He will give us grace to bear (chapter x. 13), and we should be careful not to bring unnecessary trials upon ourselves. The wisdom of this world and every arm of flesh we must persistently turn away from, and, though we may be foolish and weak and base and of no account in the eyes of the world, yet if fully yielded to Christ He will be glorified in us. Apart from Him we are nothing and can do nothing, but we can do all things through Christ, who strengthens us (xv, 10; John v, 5; Phil iv, 13).

Probably the greatest reason why our Christian experience does not measure up to our standing, why we are not as to our daily life what we ought to be, is because we fall to grasp by faith what we really are in Christ, and, not seeing the fullness which is already ours in Him, we try to attain to it by our own efforts. If we only knew by believing what is written what is the hope of His calling and what the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us (Eph. 1, 18, 10), we would live better lives because of what we really are in Christ before God. Next to the assurance of what we are now because of His finished work there is nothing so purifying, separating, uplifting, as the knowledge of what we shall be at His coming (I John ill, 1-3). Note what is written in this epistle concerning it in chapters 1, 7; iv, 5; vi, 2; xl, 20; xv, 23-51; xvi, 22, and may the thought of fellowship with Him in His kingdom and glory make us more gladly willing to have fellowship with Him now in humiliation and suffering (I John i, 3; Phil. ill, 10). He is pleased to call us "laborers together with Him," and yet He does it all, working in us both to will and to do of His good pleasure (chapter ill, 9; Phil. ii, 13; Heb. xiii, 20, 21). We are bought with a price, even the precious blood of Christ, that we may be temples of the Holy Spirit, who worketh in each one as He will when He can have the right of way in us (chapter vi, 19, 20; xli, 7-11).
The one only foundation is Jesus Christ, the sure foundation (chapter iii, 11; Isa. xxviii, 16; I Pet. ii, 6), all else being as sand, a refuge of lies (Matt. vii, 26, 27; Isa. xxvill, 17). But we may be safely on this foundation and yet so build, so live, that the building, the daily life, not being acceptable to God, shall not be approved in that day, but rejected and the believer suffer irreparable loss and find himself just barely saved—saved as by fire (chapter iii, 12-15). This was evidently what Paul had in mind when he spoke of denying self that his service might not be disapproved or rejected (chapter ix, 25-27, R. V.). We may not judge others till the evidence is all in, but we may and should judge ourselves always by the question: Will He approve? Is this of the Lord?

We hear much these days about
colored people not patronizing colored
business enterprises—
The truth of the matter is that many Colored business men }
| ave neither kept pace with the broadening and discriminat- _
‘img tastes of the Colored customer nor with the specialized
| efforts of their white competitors.
“It’s 2 far cry” from sentiment to business.
, e
. © , This is the age of specialized selling methods and the Col-
2 ored merchant must “fall in” or “fall out.”
Verne difference between the business which is “mighty fine” '
and “just so-so” is the difference in merchandising methods.
| We can help you to put your business into the “mighty fine” 1 i

eleven o'clock, my mind settled down

Godall, pastor, to which I was wonder-
fully benefited. Rey. Goodall's sermon
was inspiring. The important part, of
the topic was that all trouble oe
from sin, and how Gideon conquered
through faith, from the dream of his
enemies he interpreted victory.
Rey. Goodall described how; the herds
in great numbers covered the fields
and the multitude of enemy was in
majority. He also described how the
number of Gideon was tested by the
lapping of water like dogs, and how
