VOLUME XXXI
MUTUALS HOST TO MANY OF THEIR FRIENDS
Dancing Fishing and Interesting Ball-Game Principal Features of Entertainment on the Island.
The Mutual Benevolent Society, one of the oldest and best known organizations in the city, was host last Thursday to about five hundred and fifty of their friends in their annual outing to Daufuskie Island. Invitations to this exceptionally enjoyable event of the picnic season, this year as previous seasons, were greatly in demand and on account of the limited capacity of the well-known excursion steamer Pilot Boy, the six hundred who were fortunate enough to secure one of the free pieces of pasteboard allowing passage on this select outing, were truly favored.
Weather conditions after leaving the city were indeed ideal and the few who had tickets and remained at home on account of the showers of early morning were miserable and all out of sorts when about 10 o'clock the sun broke through the scattering clouds and shone down in all its glory during the remainder of the day.
In order to afford the many strangers who were aboard, a view of the entire harbor, a short trip was taken up the river to a point opposite the Ocean Steamship company's million dollar pliers. This unusual sally up the river by the excursionists—and of course its the Mutual's way of doing things, to give the guests full measure of everything in the entertainment line—attracted wide attention by the shipping in the upper harbor and as the ten piece orchestra pealed forth the popular airs and the strains were wafted over the still waters to the ears of the good matured, husky coal passers and long shoremem engaged in their daily tasks of loading the mammoth leviathans of the sea the strenuous labor of these strong boys in black were sorrently transformed into antic of the ball room with the "bunny hug" and the "eagle-rock" interpreted in a most attractive manner.
The picnic grounds were reached a little before noon and immediately upon landing the mighty fishermen among the jolly crowd commandeered all the small craft thereabout and put out into the stream to try their luck with the funny tribe. And, maybe they didn't pull in a big haul, or better, didn't the inhabitants of the water greet them with the usual Mutual welcome, for every man with a line brought back so many fish that it was hardly conceivable that there were any of the much sought whiting and trout left in the waters. Yes, they really caught them for not a one of the crowd would admit, under oath of Lawyer Lemon, that he purchased them from the well-known Daufuskie fishermen hanging around with scores of the finny things. One boat, however, must have lost the trail for when it returned to shore but a single member of the watery inhabitants was visible. The boat was much observed by the "land lubbers" for it was cutting up peculiar didges. Finally, those on shore learned the secret of the trouble—it was a shark which Mr. Tom Freeman had hooked. For about a half hour he played the fish and the story of his game, fight reached the score or more of undressed youth who were just about to take their annual plunge into the refreshing river. Mothers and guardians who were anxiously beseeching the boys not to go swimming were given a deaf ear but just as the boys were about to dive off the landing the story of the shark did the trick and the boys all took a second thought, stole stealthily away and donned their clothing, not to try the sport any more that day.
Oh yes, about Mr. Freeman! Well, he gradually wore his catch out, and with the assistance of the five other men in the boat, one armed with a Colt, another with a butcher knife and the other three holding any weapon they could get their big hands on, the man-eating shark—the scare of the Atlantic coast this summer—was hauled in. It was of this, variety of shark all right but it was not quite nine feet long, it was a "minor" though. Ready to annihilate the lucky catch
DELINQUENT SUBSCRIBERS CUT OFF OUR LIST
Ample Notice, Was Given Before This Was Done
Early in April we confided in our subscribers, especially the delinquent ones, and stated that because the very high cost of paper, printing material, etc., we would be compelled to cut off delinquents. Many heeded our request and made a settlement, the others have been cut off, and there are still others who will meet the same fate unless prompt payment is made. We regret to do this, but we are forced to it on account of the very high cost of materials. Those of our subscribers who are delinquent, and fail to get their paper will readily understand the cause.
TWO SAVANNAH BOYS AT THE BORDER
Mr. Chas. C. Ferrill and Mr? William Middleton, two Savannah boys are with the Eighth Regiment of the United States army, and are now at the border with headquarters in San Antonio, Texas. Both young men are with the machine gun company of the eighth infantry. Aside from these, there are several other local boys in the regular army regiments.
RAINES—RUMPH
A very pretty, but quiet wedding was that of Miss Elizabeth Raines to Mr. T. J. Rumph, which was solemnized Sunday evening at 6 o'clock at the residence of the bride's aunt, Miss Emmie Henderson, at 24 West, Hull street. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Redd of the Presbyterian Church. The bride was becomingly gowned in a smart dress of white crepe de chine. A reception followed. Her traveling dress was a coat suit of mid-night blue, with hat to match. Mr. and Mrs. Rumph-left at 9 o'clock for their future home, Fort Valley, Ga. where the groom is engaged in business. The out of town guests present were Mrs. Grayson, Miss Grayson and Mrs. Thompson of Macon, Ga.
WILL SOLICIT FOR
OLD FOLKS PICNIC
The following ladles have been appointed by the Sunshine and Willing Workers of the Urban League to solicit donations for the annual old folks picnic to be given at Cattle Park, August 9th. Any amount given will be greatly appreciated by the league; Mrs. Emma Dennis, Mrs. Singleton, Mrs. Rebecca S. Taylor, Mrs. Laura Fields, Mrs. Sarah Wright, Mrs. Lucy Newton, Mrs. Sarah Robinson, Mrs. Henrietta Deas, Mrs. Celestine Anderson, Mrs Lee Gilmore, Mrs. Ellen Spencer Mrs. Walker, Mrs. Ellen Richardson, Miss Ada Scott, Mrs. Rachel Moore, chairman.
ARTICLES MUST REACH THE OFFICE ON WEDNESDAY

No notice will be paid to unsigned articles. Several of this kind have been consigned to the waste basket.
they pulled him up and with a mighty effort when the dreaded thing reached the surface, it jumped into the boat and caused consternation among the six brave men. They were non-plussed, when finally one recovered his equilibrium of mind and percieved that it was only a little nine inch fellow who had made the fatal mistake of biting the hook on the line and was simply fighting for his freedom. Even so, it is very possible that the victim of Mr. Freeman's fishing propensities is an exhibition in the latter's store on the east side.
The young folks, of course, took theirs out dancing while the mothers and their little ones made good of the swings and see-saws during the eight hours spent on the island.
Just to do the thing up right and to show that they were real and genuine hosts, the Mutuals' ball club, composed of some of the younger members of the club, allowed their opponents to defeat them in a game of indoor ball by a score of 6 to 3.
The picnickers returned to the city about 10 o'clock p. m., after one of the most delightful outings ever given by this organization.
SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, SATURDAY JULY 29TH. 1916
National Race Congress Called
EXACT PLACE AND DATE NOT YET FIXED
Will Meet to Express Feelings on Existing Conditions of Negroes
The following call issued by President Byron Gunner of the National Equal Rights League, advocating a national race congress on citizen rights will doubtless receive wide attention in view of the many discriminations which have been practiced against the Negro:
Hillburn, N. Y., July 15, 1916
Fellow Comrades and Fellow Citizens of Color:
By the authority vested in me as president of the National Equal Rights League I hereby issue this preliminary call for a ninth annual session of said league. The matter of the exact date and place for the convention is not yet quite settled, but it is very timely and proper that there be no further delay in inviting public attention to the fact that such a convention is to be held, and within the next sixty days.
National Race Congress
It has been wisely suggested in view of existing unfavorable social, civic and political conditions confronting us as a people, that the National Equal Rights League invite and urge all of our people, in all sections of the country, to unite in a great "National Congress of Colored Americans," and for the special purpose of voicing the feelings and opinions of the race on this unfavorable condition now surrounding us in this country; and also to decide upon the wisest and best methods for combating color segregation and all other forms of color discrimination.
Extraordinary Wrongs Suffered
Extraordinary Wrongs Suffered
After fifty years of so called freedom in this country, what is the prevailing condition of our Colored American population? Briefly stated it is ahis: Our civil rights have been rendered almost futile; we are shamefully curtailed politically; we are denied equality before the law; we are not allowed equal industrial opportunities; our property and our very lives are not at all secure; and "the black horrors of lynching" innocent Colored Americans continue unabated. While our federal government's indifference towards all these injustices is but little less than the nullification of our great war amendments. Throughout the Southland, and to more or less extent in the north, Colored Americans are being more and more reduced to the pitiful condition of political serfs and social outcasts.
Can We be Unmoved?
If such conditions, do not stir our souls and our blood, what under heaven can do it? Do not the industrial opportunities denied us, the freedom of speech and the press not allowed, the civic and political rights taken from us, and the insecurity of property and life that surrounds us, give sufficient ground and reason for the calling of such a National Congress of Colored Americans as is herein suggested? "In this fierce era of controversy and blood-shed," can we be unmoved? While the whole world is wide awake socially and politically, shall we sleep? While all other classes and races are on the verge of social and political revolutions, shall we be indifferent? Since all other groups of oppressed people are in the stir and rush of agitation, is it not high time that we should at least begin to get on the mojo?
The south is still in the saddle at our national capital, rushing headlong with a most reckless disregard for the feelings and rights of ten millions of loyal, but oppressed Colored Americans.
Fling Our Standard
Therefore, let us get together in a great national congress, and fling to the whole wide world the full story of our grievances and of our earnest demand for justice and fair play.
Get Ready
Det all our religious, educational, social and political leaders among us heed this call. Let all of our great religious organizations and our lodges and benevolent societies begin now to plan to be represented in this proposed cengress. By so doing we cannot fail to produce a powerful effect on the public mind that will greatly help us in our struggle for justice and freedom. This congress will be independent (Continued on page4)
Negro Troopers Laid To Rest
FULL MILITARY HONORS PAID DEAD HEROES
Secretary of War Baker Supervised Ceremony at Arlington Cemetery.
Washington, D. C., July 25—A notable event in the annals of our racial life was the burial last Friday at Arlington cemetery of the six unidentified bodies of the 10th Cavalry troopers, killed in the Mexican ambuscade at Carrizal. With full military honors the dusky heroes were laid in their final resting place.
The ceremonies were given a national character from the fact that they were entirely under the supervision of the War Department and personally directed by the Hon. Newton D. Baker, secretary of war. By the departmental orders, the escort, a troop of the Second Cavalry, a section of Battery A., field artillery of the Federal City Brigade, and the Engineer Band took part in the solemn function of the day.
The bodies, hermetically sealed in steel caskets, arrived at the Union Station the light before. Surrounded a crowd that numbered thousands and representing all classes, creed and races, the detail of the 2d Cavalry bore upon their shoulders the bodies of the dead troopers and gently laid them upon the caissons of the battery. Each coffin was draped with the American flag. Prof John R. Hawkins, financial secretary of the A. M. E. church, placed a wreath on each, on behalf of the colored citizens' committee, of which Dr. A. M. Curtis was chairman, having been designated as such by the War Department. Watched in silent awe by the thousands who lined the curb throughout the long line of march from the Union station to historic Arlington, heads were bared in reverence as the caissons passed.
At the national cemetery the throng massed in two lines at the approach to the open graves. The band played "Lead Kindly Light," as the detail of the 2d Cavalry tenderly deposited the bodies of the departed heroes in the places prepared for them, and Chaplain C. Livingston Bayard, of the United States navy, read the beautiful interment service—"I am the resurrection and the life." The band played "Nearer My God to, Thee," wreaths from the White House conservatory, presented by President Wilson, were placed upon each grave, the detail fired the customary salute of thirty volleys, the bugler sounded "taps"—and the simple ceremonies of the military funeral-historical with that of Capt. Charles T: Boyd of a day or two before, was at end. Commander and his gallant men lay beneath a common sod in the nation's grandest "blvouac of the dead."
In addition to Secretary of War Baker, the occasion was honored by the presence of Major-General Hugh L. Scott, chief of staff of the army. In the procession were the Spanish war veterans, led by Hon. L. C. Dyer, members of Congress from St. Louis, their commander-in-chief. Other members of Congress participating were: W. S. Howard, of Georgia; Richard W. Austin and Samuel R. Sells, of Tennessee; Geo. A. Loud and W. F. James, of Michigan; G. T. Nelverina, of Kansas; Henry Bruckner, of New York; Sydney Anderson, of Minnesota; J. M. McGillcuddy, of Maine; M. H. Nealy, of West Virginia; Claudles W. Stone, of Illinois; and Car VanDyker, of Minnesota.
The committee of colored citirens, who took prominent parts in the sacred tunction, headed by Dr. A M Curtls, was made up of Prof. John R. Hawkins, Judge Robert H. Terreut, Former Recorders of Deeds John C. Dancy and Henry Lincoln Johnson; Prof. G. W. Cook, secretary of Howard University; Revs. J. Milton Waldron, Frank Gregory, Simon P. W. Drew, W. H. Jernagin, Alex. Willbanks, W. H. Brooks and C. H. Stepteau; Dr. E. D. Williston, Charles I. West, W. A. Arfield, surgeon-in-chief of Freedmen's Hospital, Dr. C. W. Childs, J. H. W. Howard, deputy U. S. Marshall; Attorney E. Melendes King, Attorney Armond W. Scott, representing the colored Elksof the World, Dr. Arthur L. Curtls, James A. Cobb, Mrs. Julia Mason Layton and Mrs. Anna Jordan Cellier, of the Woman's Relief Corps, G. A. R., Miss Ida C. Plummer; of the Washington Eagle, Whitfield McKinley, Lieut. Thomas H. R. Clarke, Dr. W. H. Wilson and others.

NUMBER 38
BUSINESS MEN WILL PLAY BASEBALL THURSDAY
GAME POSTPONED FROM LAST WEDNESDAY
Big Crowd Expected
Many Interesting and Amusing Stunts Will Be Pulled Off By Down and Outers Next Week.
Old Jupiter Pluvius "broke it up," but the little delay only gives the "big fellows" a chance to "tune up" to a little higher pitch and the general interest of the public to become a little more keen, all of which will only tend to swell the attendance and make the occasion all the more enjoyable.
Umpire, par excellente, Rev. R. H. Singleton, with his good wife actually journeyed out to the park in the rain, and he was not alone for Russ Harper and Bud Weston with other stars were there to don their spangles.
Gen. Harper has said that he wishes to "come-up" to bat when his side is "in extremis", i. e., when there are 'two-down," the bases loaded and three runs needed to tie the score. Oh! you "plnch-hitter."
It has come to us also that some dozen or more of the uniforms to be used have had to go on the "stretchers" so as to make them contain the corporations of Messrs. Causey, Welcher, Rivers, McFall, Lindsay and others.
Gen. H. T. Singleton is taking the thing seriously enough; his inquiries regarding technical rules of the game seem to indicate that the "Allles" are on the offensive.
There is a wager that Gen. W. J. Stiles, the star slabman of the "Germans", can't go the distance and is to be treated to a severe lacing.
Mrs. Seabrooks is very much exercised lest the "Captain" may have "heart-failure" under too much excitement. Cap announced that he would be right in there with the rest of em. A red cross brigade of ladles, old and young, will be on hand to "care for the wounded," Drs. Clayborne and Collier being field surgeons and Mrs. Jas. R. Davis being head nurse. You are reminded that every thing is provided for the convenience and care of the performers, and in case of more serious trouble we can place at your disposal, in addition to the surgeons and nurses Captain Seabrooks and the ministers.
Don't forget to call on players at every first appearance at the plate to "doff their lids" to the audience. There will be a bountiful supply of blankets on hand with which to cover those who "have trouble" in sliding * * * and kimonas. Some one has suggested that there is another garment which might be pressed into service in the cases of these men too big for baseball trousers,—a short informal garment, if you choose—that's as well as I can describe it.
Come out to the circus, it is a good cause, you will have a dollar's worth of fun and feel fine over the two hours laughing.
Rev. Singleton says a hundred of his people have said they were coming just to see how he's going to run things, and I don't blame them. I want to see it too, and as for others in the line-ups it'll be worth a five spot merely to see them in uniform. Thirty bright, new and clean complete uniforms will be on the grounds at the club house and the players are urged to come out at 3:30 p. m., so as to have them on when the audience arrives. There was once a little song entitled, "After the Ball"—well come out and see for yourself.
Rev. N. H. Whitmire, president of the Old Folks' Home, will be around during the next few days to sell you a ticket and get you to sell some. The organization already has seven building lots and is trying to build the home. We've got the old folks, let's help. Whitmire get the home. We can do it. Photographer, Gen. Johnston will be there and you can have your picture took." A wide sale of these will result. The lineup of the teams is as follows:
Allies Germass
H. T. Singleton...Mgrs...Geo. Jacobs
R. Rivers...captain...Paul Perry
J. C. Lindsay...1b...B. F. Handy
Capt. Maxwell...2b...R. A. Harper
Sam. King...3b...J. W. Johnston

MISSES' AND JUNIORS'
SUMMER FASHIONS
Sports Togs Favored., even the Tiniest
Tot Wears the Straight-Lined
Box-Pleated Frock
SIMPLE MILINERY FOR SMALL
MAIDS
New York, July 21—As usual, misses' Juniors' and tiny tots' frocks and outer garments follow the same general lines of grown-up designs. The shop windows are gay with flowered muslins, volles and dainty party frocks of flouncings and embroiderer batistes, and even net and taffetas, for Fashion now decrees that taffeta and the flowered summer silks are not too grown-up for small people. One especially pretty little frock of taffeta and net shown in a shop devoted almost entirely to children's things, is trimmed with daisies, a band of them forming
O. D. M.
the girdle, a cluster here and there Misses' Jumper Dress on the skirt, and one on either shoulder. Another Frenchish little frock of taffeta and crepe is made sleeveless, with a smartly flaring ruffled skirt; this design, however, will hardly appeal to American mothers altho it is charming as a picture. An effective simple dress for summer is of plain white volle, trimmed with bands of old time fagoting arranged to form a round yoke and banding the cuffs. Children's and Junior's Millinery Most Charming
For the very small person there are charming little fitted caps of lace and net, and fetching little close-fitting bonnets of pale pink and blue Georgette trimmed with a cluster of tiny flowers or a rosett of ribbon. For the older girls the wide brimmed Bankok and Wen-Chow are appropriate, trimmed with a touch of bright color in wool or ribbon, or a simple band of velvet or elastic silk banding the crown. These sports bands with the stripes running around or up and down, are very becoming to the young girl and harmonize well with a plain wash frock or a dark serge or linen frock.
Natural colored pongee, trimmed with contrasting color, blues, greens, nad similar shades, is well liked for the shoe-top suit now so popular with girls of from six to sixteen. The usually fashioned of the sheer cottonys, volles, marquisettes and nets, or the tub silks and satins, crepe de Chine, China silk and pongee. The light colored laws, dimities and linens are also popular for girls being fashioned into simple dresses and like, models. The wide stripes, so popular for grown-up sport skirts and suits, are also popular with the younger generation being fashioned into Norfolk suits, modified Russian and Mildy frocks and similar loose-lined models, beginning to the grown girl. The sports styles are popular, too, smart little coats of silk and wool jersey in the popular bright tones being worn over tub dresses of linen, duck, pique, and other softer cottonys, volles, crepes and the like.
A New Collar as a Feature Smocking and tucks are effective trimmings and hand embroidery plays an important part. White is most favored for the very small mould, although the pale pinks, blues and other soft shades are used considerably too.
The separate coat to wear over the fluffy dress, is fashioned of taffeta, the novelty checks, serge and Bedford cord. One of the prettiest coats of the season is developed in dark blue Bedford cord with collar and cuffs of white broadcloth, closed with large white bone buttons. The collar and cuffs may be made removable, thus doing away with the impractical side of the white.

Net and Taffeta Dresses for Afternoon For party and summer afternoons there are simule net frocks for juniors and misses, trimmed very effectively with lace and the simplest of ribbon trimmings, tucks, smocks and ruches, narrow ruffles and shirrings. The very tiny tot in her first short frock, wears lawn, batiste, dotted Swiss crepe and fine hinen. Most of these little dresses are fashioned into straight hanging, box-pleated dresses—as the merest toddlers are wearing these models nowadays.
.BASEBALL DOPE
The Eureka's and Piney Wood play Saturday.
Manager Howell of the Eurekas will give the league a fast team for the remaining part of the season.
It looks as if the games of August 14-16 will have to be played on some other date on account of the South Atlantic League trying to pull a series of games during the Eagle's convention.
Coker got his ear badly split by trying to slide head-foremost to second base in Monday's game.
The Adelphia team looks like some penant winners.
Manager Johnson of the Adelphias is wearing a broad smile. Why shouldn't he, his team is on top.
Dope has it that "Tutt" Bailey has signed up with the Eurekas.
Has Giddens, the first sacker for the Home Boys, a rubber hand. It looks so from the way the ball bounces out.
The Home Boys went up in the air in the fifth innig Monday, and caused the Roosters to take the second game of the double header.
Monday's game will be played between the league leaders and the Urban League boys.
Manager Collins took Giddens out of the game Monday. Giddens made good though, keeping the batting order for his team.
We wonder if Umpire Warner's age has anything to do with the eagle he had on the ball in the two last games played.
What has become of "Drag" Smith the first sacker for the Eurekas, is he out of the game?
Go out on Monday and see Ricks on first for the Adelphias. He's the best in the league.
Capt. Sapp of the Piney Wood will be seen in Saturday's game. He is some pegger.
Manager Howell of the Eurekas, easily the best all-round ball player in the league, expects to put up a hard fight Saturday for second place.
Joe Lendore caught a fly ball in left field Monday and received a round of applause.
"Monk" Roberts, who is herald as the league's fastest short stop, played sensational ball in the double header.
It was all right McFadden, you did your part. It was the boys behind you that caused you to lose in the second game.
Mgr. Collins "Spitfire" last week when "Runt" madea "Monk"-ey of Bone Giddens at the Park (s).
A little "Perfect" play by McFad-
den's Flats and a little "Kiln"-ing on has won the Home Boys a "String" of victories.
The ball "Sank" deep in the batter's "Skinny" slats while "Bud" handed out a "Lemon".
First Baseman Giddens of the Home Boys didn't pull any more bones in Monday's game but Manager Collins Canned him in the sixth inning.
For hard playing, Coker of the Roosters is always shore.
For grand stand box posing Pitcher "Perfect" Perry of the Home Boys, has really got 'em.
Hurry 'em up Mr. Umps. There's a little too much lost motion—Hurry 'em up.
First Baseman Coker came back gamely after his severe injury in the first game of Monday's double bill.
A hard player, he.
A little more care and practice on the part of "Kibbons" would make him a finished backstop. He's there with the "wing" and the "willow" already.
Capt Sims of the Urban League must get his line-up out for practice if he expects to succeed. Irregular and listless team-work has cost him the loss of two or three games.
The Piney Wood has rounded into a good fast team and must be reckoned with from now on.
A rarely good crowd—but not as good as it should be. The boys of all teams deserve better support.
Pitcher Graham tried the "iron-man" stunt last Monday but --- Well, I've said he "tried". Skinny did it.
"Preacher" of the Savannah Home Boys,—well, we have just one "Preacher."
* * *
Pitty we din't have that batting average compiled. 'Twould have been a good thing for the spooks in this town.
YOUNG DIXON TO GO ON ROAD

THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE
The spirit of preparedness is taking a firm hold upon all classes in Congress and out, and many speeches are heard these days by Senators, Representatives, members of National Service and Defense Leagues and private citizens, in urgency of military training for the youth of the land, white and colored alike. In keeping with this plan of individual preparedness, a strong sentiment is said to be observable in Congress looking to the establishment of a military training department at Howard University with a special appropriation for its equipment and maintenance, together with the detail of a regular army officer as instructor. The idea is growing in popularity, and may take definite form at any moment. The feasibility of the innovation here is rendered strong by the fact that Wilberforce University has such a department and has proven to be a big success. Yes, why not a military training department at Howard University?

The farmers near Macon and Camp Harris have been the losers of hundreds of dollars worth of articles by the depredations of the soldiers in camp. With them watermelons were their favorite. Certain other questionable acts are alleged to have been committed. The newspapers are mute along these lines. Just suppose for a moment that they were colored soldiers. It is useless to state the amount of frenzy that would have been displayed by the newspapers of the state and which no doubt would have resulted in bloodshed.
Georgia would indeed be doing a gracious act, and at the same time showing appreciation for its colored citizenry, by returning to them the military organizations taken away eleven years ago. A regiment of infantry and cavalry and three batteries of artillery should be given. The colored man has proven that he is a brave soldier, and not a quitter in battle. He will be badly needed. Why not prepare for it now? By all means restore to us our military commands.
On account of the recent decision of the Supreme Court, the county commissioners cannot levy a tax for school purposes. This will have to be done by a vote of the people. For this purpose, the ordinary has called an election next month in order to authorize the raising of this tax. It behoves every voter to keep this in mind and go to the court house and vote in its favor. This means much to the colored people. The Tribune is anxious that every colored registered voter will turn out on that day and vote in its favor.
The unpleasant incident which occurred early this week and which resulted in several soldiers from the eighth Illinois Negro regiment being shot by the provost guard, was very unfortunate. The whole affair, it seems, was caused by a white man who made slight remarks about the Negro soldiers who retaliated by forcing their assailant to take refuge in a nearby store, whereupon the provost guard was called upon to restore order. It is truly to be regretted that any clash which smattered of race hatred should have occurred for the Negro troopers from Illinois are there on the border in response to the call of their country. Yet the incident demonstrates clearly how intent some thoughtless white men are in showing their hatred for the Negro. Negro troops are not as a general thing composed of either cowards or trucklers and any insult or reflection heaped upon them will be resented just as it will and should be by any other troops in the service of this government. The Negro soldiers have proved not only as good fighters and as brave as any other troops of our country but they have the reputation of being the best disciplined in the service. As volunteer troopers, the Eighth Illinois goes into the service of Uncle Sam expecting and requiring the same privileges as are given soldiers of brighter hue and for this manly, stand the entire Negro race stands behind them. They are no more to be kidded, chided, reflected upon or taken advantage of by the citizens of Texas than any other of the twenty-five odd thousand troops mobilized on the border and the same treatment which is accorded white soldiers is looked for by them.
ANNOUNCEMENT
Mr and Mrs. A: Clayton Cannal, Jr. wish to announce to their friends that they are now in the city, stopping at 712 West 36th street, and would be pleased to have their friends call.
MISS JONES FINISHES PHILADELPHIA GRAMMAR SCHOOL
Miss Lillian May Jones, the thirteen year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Clarence F. Jones, is one of the June graduates of the Geo. Brooks Grammar school of West Philadelphia. She is the only colored member of her class. Her scholarship has been such that she was exempt, from all final examination since entering the school five years ago. Miss Jones will enter the West Philadelphia high school in September where she will be enrolled in the Latin scientific course.
EUREKA CLUB
Monday August 14th, is the date of the annual outing of the Eureka Aid and Athletic Club. The event will take place at Daufuskle and the large following of this popular organization will have an opportunity of spending a very pleasant afternoon. The Tribune has just put out a unique invitation for them which carries several veres of appropriate poetry. The Eureka Club is one of the foremost civic societies in the city and its club room in the Masonie Temple is well appointed and elaborately furnished. It has a very large membership and its financial condition is excellent.
Joseuh Elliott
Mr. Joseph Elliott who was drowned on last Monday night while being employed by the Merchants and Miners Transportation Company was buried on last Thursday Morning at 10 o'clock from the Royal Undertaking parlor.

SAVANNAH HOME ASSOCIATION PUZZLE
The puzzle which appeared in last Saturday's issue of The Tribune for which a ticket each was offered to the first three ladies sending in a correct answer to the Savannah Home Association outing, attracted much attention and caused a number of ladies to get busy as soon as The Tribune reached them on Saturday morning. The puzzle didn't seem to be so puzzling, judging from the large number of answers that poured into the association's reading room. The scheme proved to be very satisfactory to the promoters and was a clever means of adcertiing broadcast, their two-boat excursion on next Tuesday. More than a hundred answers were received up to Wednesday and many more came in later. Among them were several from out of town. The names of the winners of the tickets are given below and all the names of those who answered correctly but were too late to be one of the lucky ones. The answer to the puzzle is Two boat excursion to Daufuskie, August first by Savannah Home Association.
The three ladies whose correct answers were first to be received were Miss Geneva Deas, 212 West Gaston street; Mrs. M. Smalls, 630 Ell street and Miss V. Corinne Bailey, 415 West Taylor street. These ladies can receive their tickets by calling in person to the Sayannah Home Association reading room on Monday night.

NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE WEEKLY LETTER
Business in all ages of the world has had a wonderful civilizing effect on man, since the mind of man "runneth not to the contrary."
The conscientious, upright business man, be he white or black, is loved and respected by civilized mankind the world over. And why? Through his far-sightedness our citizens are built, our furnace fires are kept burning, our great net work of rail road systems with their civilizing effect on the dolings of mankind, furnish remunerative employment to multiplied thousands of men and women, the contents of whose pay envelope go each month for the housing, feeding, doctor's bill, insurance and the thousand and one other things which naturally follow in the wake of human civilized responsibility. He whitens the oceans with his sailing vessels, and blackens the heavens with the smoke of his steam vessels and furnace fires. He endows our colleges and universities and contends, first, last and all the while for the education of all the people. His influence and maneuverings in the great, trade centers of this,
as well, as in all other civilized countries, have made for him a name which the world will honor as long as time lasts. There is no great world-wide movement where influence, brain and money are needed, but what the business man is not called in to make it go. This is as it should be; for no business man can reasonably hope to gain any measure of success without aid, support and the encouragement of the people. There is a great need of the race in its struggles upward, to strive hard for unification along all lines, whether in business, professions, agriculture or what not, as co-operation along lines of racial uplift is what the race stands most in need of at this time. When we speak of the co-operation among our people, we do not mean that all of them are in need of it, as there are men in the race whose records show that they have given encouragement and support to every movement worth while, launched by members of the race. Many of our troubles from within are brought upon us through what might be truthfully called, downright ignorance. You will agree with us that the man who will put forth his best endeavors to educate another's sons and daughters at the expense of his own, and in the mean time, strive with might and main to make places of employment for the sons and daughters return from school to walk the streets in idleness, is either ignorant or deceitful, or maybe, both. This picture in a feeble way calls attention to and enables us to see the man, yet, the Negro man who willfully withholds his support from other Negroes engaged in business, which businesses would, if properly supported and encouraged by members of the race, who need and must have just such things as our Negro merchants and business men keep constantly on hand for those who might favor them with their patronage, warrants us in placing such ones in that class referred to as either ignorant or deceitful or maybe both.
THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE These baneful conditions mentioned. regarding our boys and girls walking the streets of our various towns and cities in idleness, tho, in many instances educated and honest, obtain nearly, if not quite all over the entire country.
If the Negro banks, insurance companies, dry goods stores, doctors, lawyers, printing plants, drug stores and Negro enterprises in general were given the support from members of our own race as members of other races give their support to their business men, on the first day in August one thousand young men and women could be given profitable, as well as pleasant, employment by members of the race right here in Savannah.
Don't fail to be present at your next meeting which will be the last meeting before your delegate leaves for the National convention, which will convene in Kansas City, August 16 to 18. Wednesday evening Aug. 2nd, and winds up this conventional year. Come early and bring a friend and join in the discussion of a fine business subject.
MEMORIALS
In sad but loving remembrance of our dear little darling, Hagar Ann Morris, who departed this life July 28, 1915.
'Tis one year today, dear one, that you have exchanged this earth for heaven and immortal glory. O how we often think of you. O how we often think of your little gentle voice that had called us to your little bedside. No more little steps we will ever hear in our home. No more little songs will we ever hear from thee. Dear darling we are separate now, but on one of those bright morning we dear ones that are left behind will join you on the golden shores.
Grand mother, Mrs. B. C. Simms
Grand father, J. Morris

Since the last communication of the Masonic Relief Association we have been authoritively informed of the raise of. 10c in the relief dues commencing October 1916. This raise is rue to the enormous death rate which naturally causes a decrease in the surplus. Men who compose Masonry are older class and practically every policy is of full value, hence the decrease will be greater in future years if the minimum and maximum rates are not perfected. Corner Stone lodge No. 8 is aware of the prediction by Bro. C. A. Clark at home and at the Grand Lodge of this decrease owing to the low rates and the grades of risks that are being carried. Corner Stone asks for some of the honor through Bro. Clark for the farsighted protection in guarding the association. The Booster Campaign in the Pythians will in short give rise for the same protection for Brunswick is mindful of the fact that the age limit has been overlooked.

Poor Taste
It is to be generally deplored that
at the festive board occasionally songs
and recitations are introduced ‘that are
not in keeping with the high moral
teachings of the order. At’a recent
lodze meeting a song was introduced
that would cause a bulsh in many of
the lowest musical halls, Unfortunate-
Jy loud applause greeted the singer at
its conclusion; but it would have been
more in keeping if the Master's gavel
had been sounded at the clove of the
first verse, and the offender taught
that such conduct was not\pllowed in
our meetings. It is pleasing to state
| that such occasions are rare, for gen-
erally the harmony is of a high order

Late Hours in Lodees
Complaints are frequent by presiding
jollicers of various Masonic bodies that
;many inembers do not remain until
the close of the meetings. It ig not
difficult to understand why the mem-
her who ix obliged to labor hard all
day should desire to go to bed at
an earlier hour than would be possible
jin the event of remaining at lodge until
the close,
Tet the presiding officer arrange the
work with a view? to earlier closing,
and the chances are there will be an
increase In the number who stay to
the end. This can be done If desired.
There are plenty of workers to work
possible early openings, and there is
seldom a genuine reason for having
more canditates than can be disposed
of before a late hour. z
| It too often happens that poor” judg.
ment is displayed in planning the work.
One ulght there will be too much work,
and another night not enough. Proper
consideration for the rights of candi-
dates and members demand that pre-
siding otlicers devote sone thought to
this matter. It seldom Is necessary
that a candidate be received on a cer-
tain night. Properly distributed, the
work can be made interesting, but
when poorly apportioned it frequently

Members of the Ancient and Honor-
able Craft, as well as the profane, hase
asked the question “What is Masonry?”
A vast amount of literature has been
written on this subject, and long dis-
sertations pronounced in the attempt
to give a lucit response to the all ab-
sorbing query.
If it were possible to gather all the
answers and views expressed on this
question, there is no doubt that the
basis of all opinions would rest upon
end are thoroughly expressc. + the
word fraternity.
Fraternity is defined as the state or
quality of belng fraternal or brotherly
—brotherhood.
Inherent in mankind is the impulse
to give u lucid response to the all ab-
ereate and foster a condition of closer
intimacy between individuals who
thoroughly realize their mutual de
pendent character, as well as a desire
for the companionship of their fellow-
men The history of Freemasonry
shows that from Its earliest period
“the quality of being fraternal,” as
teesely expressed by the word “broth-
erly love,” and augmented by “Reltet
and Truth,” these “Great Tehets” have
been the very strength and support of
our institution. These have stood the
‘test of centuries gone—and will stand
for centuries to come, and upon these
great principles of fraternity 1s Ma-
soury based.—Masonic Light,
Superficial Masons
There are too many superficial Ma.
sons. Promotion from one degree tc
another, from Blue Lodge to Chapter,
and from the Chapter to the Command:
ery is taken 23 a matter of course
Sometimes a man starts out: with an
ambition to take the Shrine, (which ts
not Masonry) and hurries through the
degrees with just as little time and
effort as possible.
Now that man is of positively no
value to the craft, and the craft 1s of
no value to him.. He Is really 2 cumb-
erer of the ground, and Masonry does
not occupy as much space in bis heart,
as do the emblems on his-coat.
Strange to say, some of these super-
ficial Masons get into the chairs. It
is not a difficult matter to be elected
to office. The real Masonic workers
are so few that almost any man can
be chosen. for office if he will attend
regularly for a time, and display a It-
tle interest. Sometimes he learns the
work by rote, and makes a display
(still superficial) with the lectures and
laws. Yet in many cases the real les-
sons have never entered his mind e
has never learned to guard his tongue.
He has never learned to control his
passton, and may be guilty, if not of
law-breaking, of actual {mmorality.
such persons are certainly unfit to be at
the head of a lodge or a chapter.
‘The trouble is that all of us regard
our vows too lightly and do not take
our obligations serlously enough.

(Continued from page one)
agent of the New York State Agricultural Department, a friend of Tuskegee Institute has agreed to donate $10,000 toward the Booker T. Washington Memorial Fund in installments of $2,000 a year. The gift is a timely one and will go far toward helping the committee to raise the fund that is needed to insure the perpetuation of the work founded by Dr. Washington for the uplift of the Negroes in the southland.
MR. SCOTT HAS SUPPORT OF DR. ATKINS FOR POSITION
Dr. W. E. Atkins, of Hampton, former Grand Exalted Ruler of the Elks of the World, has signified his intention of supporting for grand exalted ruler this year at the Philadelphia convention of the Elks that popular young leader, Attorney Armond W. Scott, of Washington, D. C. He has not only given Mr. Scott his personal assurance of his warm support, but has written to a number of Elks of influence throughout the country, stating that it is the right and proper thing to do to honor the faithful Scott with the elevation of the order's highest office at this time and urging that they cast their vote for him.
This practically closes the campaign and assures the election of Mr. Scott "hands down." A few complimentary votes will be cast for the "favorite sons" of certain localities, for strategic reasons and for future references, but it is expected that after these perfunctory courtesies are shown, the convention will settle down and elect Mr. Scott by acclamation.
CAMPAIGN FOR MEMORIAL FUND
STILL ON
Although the regular meetings have ceased until September, the committee in charge of the Booker T. Washington Memorial Fund in the District of Columbia announces that the work of collecting pledges and making new ones will go on through the summer with unabated vigor. The secretary is sending out letters this week urging the members of the committee itself to honor their pledges by prompt payment, and many sources of revenue are being reached by polite presentation of the case through note or personal solicitation.
INVESTIGATION OF SCHOOLS
IMMINENT
The election of Rev. John Van-Schaick as president of the board of education is another triumph for the reform forces in the reorganized school governors, and is another signal defeat for the "machine" that has been running the educational affairs of the District for the past few years, to the detriment of pupils, patrons and public at large. The Supreme Court Justices, the District Commissioners and the patriotic people have gotten together in one grand movement for better conditions and it is expected that some radical changes in the personnel of the school management will be made as soon as a definite course of action can be agreed upon. In the mean time, a thoro investigation of the inner workings of the schools will be made, and no stone will be left unturned to break up the practices that have played havoc with the schools in the past few years.
A new assistant superintendent in charge of colored schools is imperatively demanded by the people. The reasons have been set forth so plainly that a repetition of them is not necessary at this time. The work of the schools has undoubtedly suffered for the lack of confidence in the official head. With his going, there should also go from position of power the factors that have bolstered up the ill-treated Drug administration. in the face of the adverse sentiment of no perigee of the influential people of the district. To guarantee a square deal a brand new set of directors is surely needed. There is no disposition to make of anyone's living from him or her, but the safety of the system does suggest that every marplot be transferred to a place where they can do no further harm. The new members of the board Dr. Vanschlaik, Mrs. Gerry and Dr. J. Hayden, Johnson, have the confidence of the public, and with certain factors of the hold-over board, they constitute a working majority to reform.
EMMETT SCOTT FOR PRESIDENT
OF LEAGUE
Washington sentiment is for Emmett
J. Scott for the next president of the
National Negro Business League. He
is the logical successor to the late Dr.
Booker T. Washington. For years he
has worn the brunt of the managerial
work for the league and is now
entitled to the promotion that comes with
meritorious service.
THE TOWN IN REVIEW
Ger. Joseph L. Jones, of Cincinnati,
O., supreme vice chancellor of the
Knights of Pythias and grand worthy
counsellor of the Court of Calanthe,
passed through the city on Tuesday of last week, en route home. Gen. Jones will be in attendance next month at the Kansas City meeting of the National Negro Business League, and National Negro Press Association, of which he is chairman. Gen. Jones is president of the Central Regalia Company and reports a rushing business.
A visitor from the Buckeye commonwealth brings the startling news that Hon. Ralph W. Tyler, ever eager to do the unusual, has thrown his hat in the ring for the office of auditor of state, subject to the decision of the Obio state primaries to be held in the near future. This is positively funny, especially to those who knew the Hon. Ralph, when he essayed for a brief period the exacting role of "race leader" in and about the District of Columbia and rattled around in the office of auditor for the Navy Department.
The much-needed repairs to Metropolitan A. M. E. church and the erection of the long-delayed Masonic temple will come to pass—some of these days.
One blessed thing that grows out of the reorganization of the new board of education—the persecution of that splendid educator, Dr. Lucy E. Moon, by the Bruce machine, has come to a glorious end. Secure in the place she has made in the Washington school system, Dr. Moten will be unhampered from now on in the development of the great Myrtilla Miner Normal School—her own creation for the training of teachers.
W. Sidney Pittman, the race's premier architect, now located at Dallas Texas, and prospering finely, is the recipient of congratulations from all over the country because of his latest architecture triumph, the new and magnificent Pythian Temple, built at Dallas for the grand lodge of Knights of Pythias of the state of Texas, and recently dedicated with impressive ceremonies. The structure is said to be the most handsome and most commodious of its kind built and owned by colored people west of the Mississippi river.
Prof. C. C. Amey, of the North Carolina Mutual and Providence Association, was a recent visitor to the nation's capitol on business.
Mr. Heman E. Perry, president of the Standard Life Insurance Company, with headquarters at Atlanta, Ga., has been spending a fort night here, supervising the establishment of offices of the company in the district. Mr. J. Percy Bond remains as the resident manager. Mr. Perry is a gentleman of engaging qualities and made an excellent impression upon our people.
Dr. A. M. Curtis, who recently attended the sessions of the North Carolina Medical Society at Wilson and performed three difficult operations in major surgery at the clinic held at the Wilson Colored Hospital, besides delivering a number of informing addresses, was unanimously chosen an honorary member of the North Carolina Medical Society.

The fourteen lucky soldiers of the 25th Infantry discharged without honor following the investigation of the Brownsville riot, who have been restored to duty through an act of Congress, received back pay allowances, the goodly sum of $25,000. This is a triumphant vindication of the time-honored maxim that truth crushed to earth will rise again.
At the Lincoln Hospital, Durham, N.C., a few days ago, Dr. A. M. Curtis performed a successful operation for apendicitis on Miss Benetta W. Jones, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. J. W. Jones, of Winston-Salem, N.C. The operation attracted state-wide attention, owing to the prominence of the Jones family throughout North Carolina.
Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, president of the National Training School for Girls, Lincoln Heights, D. C., sent in her check for $10 for the Booker T. Washington Memorial Fund, and Mr. W. J. Singleton of the war department sent in a donation of $5. Those are a few of the substantial people who have given to this helpful fund in the past few days.
Miss Marie A. D. Madre, the retiring president of Bethel Literary and Historical Society, is to deliver a series of lectures in Chicago at an early date, under the direction of Mme. Azalia Hackley, the famous prima dona and musical educator.
A monster reception being planned for Bishop L. N. Ross, to be held prior to his departure for his African field.
The death of Mr Willie B. Mitchell, which occurred a few days ago at Freedmen's Hospital, was a distinct shock to this community in which he had lived for a number of years and by which he was greatly loved. His
death grew out of complications which followed an operation some time ago for appendicitis.
Mr. William Buckner, of Chicago, trainier of the White Sock baseball team, was here last week with his team and was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. James E. Buckner at the Cameron. He is one of the most capable men in the country in the handling of athletics and is perhaps the only colored trained engaged in the major leagues of the land.

An appointment to the vacant musical directorship of the public schools, left open by the death of Prof. John T. Layton, is expected soon. The people feel that the position has been juggled long enough by those having the matter in charge.
Mr. William H. C. Brown, the well-known investment banker, is the head of a syndicate which has been formed to under write the entire new issue of $50,000 capital and surplus of the Standard Life Insurance Company. Associated with Mr. Brown are Messrs. Brown and Stevens, bankers of Philadelphia, and a number of other equally substantial magnates of the financial world. The event is notable in that it is one of the few instances in the history of our race when Afro-Americans can themselves finance such a large proposition as this, without calling on the Caucasian people for help.
Dr. Summer Wormley, the popular surgeon-dentist, has returned from the session of the Tri-State Dental Association, which met last week at Buckroe Beach.

If the pending District of Columbia appropriation bill becomes a law, the salary of Judge Robert H. Terrell of the Municipal Court, will be raised from $2,500 to $3,600 along with his five colleagues on the local bench. This will make the salaries of the municipal court judges the same as that enjoyed for years by that of the police courts;
THY WILL BE DONE
The way, O Lord, is rough and long
And I am worn with toil and care;
But ere my soul hurt forth in song
I how me down in humble prayer
For help along this rugged way
And shelter from life's scorching sun.
But rising up I can but say
Thy will be done, Thy will be done.
My joys are few and far between,
Altho I have a count of joy;
The pleasures sought are never seen.
And yet there's nought that can annoy
A consolation hurried deep
Which brightens when the tears would run
And hums the song when I would weep
Thy will be done, Thy will be done.
The storm clouds darken in the west
As on I press in feeble stride;
Iain my bleeding feet would rest.
Along with those who pass me ride,
And looking on me as I trend
While sympathizers there are none;
But even in the driving wind.
Thy will be done, Thy will be done.
I grope and falter in the gloom
As shrouded in its dismal hold.
Like some slave in his darkened room
Who seeks, faint hearted, to unfold
A mystery that will supplant
The works of fate so well begun
By breathing sighs with mingled chant
Thy will be done, Thy will be done.
I staggered in the painful toil;
And learn to list some distant peal
peal
That would relax this stubborn coil
As in this whirl I swerve and reel
Like straggling from some battle line
Turn by the foeman's cruel gush.
Tho faint the strain, this song of mine:
Thy will be done. Thy will be done.
Some balm that will offace these scares
Some healing substance that will
turn
These taints of woe and soothing harm
That bleed a week and helpless gue.
But still I'm eliciting to Thine arm—
Thy will be done. Thy will be done.
The way, O Lord, is tough and long;
I do not know what days will bring;
Tis Thine alone to right the wrong.
As struggling on I pray and sing
With burdened soul and fainting breath
Till what I am to win is won.
Not in love, life or death.
SUMMER SCHOOL
I have opened a summer school at St. Augustine hall, corner Bolton and West Broad streets, to help children who are behind in their school work and to assist those who are ambitious to do advanced work.

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. Stearns.
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 (I, 1; Acts xvill, 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 envying and strife and factions, standing for this or that teacher instead of glorifying in the Lord alone (i. 29, 31; iii. 1-7, 21-23; 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 xi, 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 strengtheneth 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 fail 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, 19), 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 iii, 1-3). Note what is written in this epistle concerning it in chapters i, 7, iv, 5; vl, 2; xi, 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. iii, 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 iii, 9; Phil. ii, 13; Heb. xii, 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, 1), all else being as sand, a refuge of lies (Matt. vii, 26, 27; Isa. xxviii, 16). 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?
