The Savannah Tribune. --- VOLUME XXXI WOMAN'S AUX'L IN CONVENTION WOMAN'S AUX'L IN CONVENTION ABOUT 500 DELEGATES PRESENT FROM MANY STATES President and Secretary of Convention Make Thrilling Addresses $ ^{o} $ The Women's Auxiliary to the National Baptist Convention convened at St. John Baptist Church, Wednesday and will hold its last meeting Sunday evening. There are about 500 enrolled delegates, representing eighteen states. The opening session of the convention Wednesday afternoon was attended by a very large crowd. Mrs. S. Willie Layton of Philadelphia, presided. The welcome addresses at 4 o'clock were excellent. Mrs. W. J. Ayers welcomed the visitors in behalf of the Baptist women, Mrs. M. E. Harper spoke in behalf of the other denominations and Mrs. P. James Bryan of Atlanta, made the welcome address on behalf of the state. On behalf of the delegates, Mrs. Ruth L. Bennett, of Philadelphia, made the response. The evening's session had as its principal feature the annual sermon by the Rev. C. G. Fishback of Kansas. Special music was rendered and an exceptionally large crowd was present. At the Thursday morning's session Mrs. P. Jame Bryant, of Atlanta, presided. The main feature of the session was the annual report of the president, Mrs. S. Willie Layton. Mrs. Layton spoke on prepareness and her address was listened to with marked attention. The speaker stressed the importance of boys and girls being given proper training in order that they may be fully prepared to meet the battles of life and she dwelt at length on the necessity of proper recreational training for them. In the afternoon the church was packed, the main attraction being the address of Miss N. H. Burroughs, corresponding secretary. Miss Burroughs held her audience spell bound as she told of the work which is being done at the National Training School and that of the Baptist women all over the country. The speaker emphasized the fact that there is too much reform work and not enough preventive work. She advised against starting too many "uplift" organizations and advocated the concentration of efforts on the few enterprises that are operated by honest, capable people, and be content to have a less number of schools, churches, shops and business places and urged that we see that they are better managed. She spoke of the gap between white and colored women, urged the putting of backbone in our boys and told most feelingly of the temptation besetting Negro girls. She touched upon the tendency of many young women to do missionary work within the church when their own homes remain neglected. The speaker was the very embodiment of earnestness and her words seemed to strike a most responsive chord in the hearts of her hearers. At night the Rev. B. F. Riley, white, of Alabama, and Mrs. M. W. Reddick, of Americus, Ga., were the principal speakers. Rev. Riley told in a most earnest and impressive manner of his work in attempting to create a better understanding between the whites and blacks. His talk was to the point and practical and he handled it in a plain matter of fact way. After these two addresses, Mrs. E. Arlington Wilson, in charge of the question box, spoke. Yesterday's session brought forth addresses by Mrs. M. J. Brockman. Oklahoma; Mrs. S. Tribbitt, Pennsylvania; Mrs. Arline Raifford, South Carolina; Mrs. B. F. Fox, Virginia, and Mrs. Mary Leod Bethune, Fla. The program for today and Sunday is as follows: 9:30—Devotional services, Committee on Devotions in charge. 10:00—Music. 10:05—Addresses, State Directors and Presidents of State Conventions.

One of the most inspiring and beneficial meetings of the series of the National Baptist convention sessions here, will be that of the educational mass meeting to be held Sunday evening from 6 to 8 p. m., at the First Bryan Baptist Church, West Bryan street, Rev. Daniel Wright, pastor. This meeting will be held under the auspices of the executive committee of the Educational Board, of which Dr. T. J. Searcy is chairman. Col. A. B. Singfield will be master of ceremonies. Speakers, Dr. Moses and Griggs, are men of national reputation and as speakers they have but few peers. Dr. Griggs is the author of several popular books. It is expected that a crowd will fill Old Bryan in order to hear these educational leaders in the Baptist cause. LISLE MONUMENT TAG -DAY Everybody Will be Tagged for the Lisle Monument Fund. Today is tag day in the interest of the Lisle Monument Fund. Thru the efforts of Miss Bessie Foster, the very efficient secretary of the local Lisle Monument Committee, scores of young ladies have been secured to take a part in the Lisle Monument tag day. These ladies met last Tuesday at the F. A. B. church, Bolton street, and organized. They were given proper instructions by Miss Poster and Dr. L. G. Jordan, secretary of the Foreign Mission Board. These young ladies, along with the monument committee, met in a body at the F. B. B church where a group picture was taken at the monument. Early this morning the young ladies will be on the streets with tags Everybody should encourage them by contributing liberally to tag day.

Morris of Arkansas Re-elected Major Moton of Tuskegee Who Addressed Convention Last Night Received Rousing Applause—Convention Will Conglud) Business Monday Night The thirty-six annual session of the National Baptist Convention was opened here Wednesday morning 10 o'clock and will continue until Monday night. The meetings are being held in the auditorium of the First African Baptist Church, Franklin square. Rev. A. J. Stokes, D. D., Montgomery, Ala., treasurer; Prof. M. M. Rogers, Dallas, Tex., auditor; C. H. Parrish, D. D., Loulsville, Ky., Statistical secretary. Wednesday night the church was crowded, the principal feature being The last of the delegates arrived from the West Thursday morning and with their appearance in the city there were in the neighborhood of five thousand visitors here for the big Baptist meeting. The conventionists began pouring into the city Monday night, altho a few arrived as early as Sunday night. The local arrangement committee, anticipating a mammoth crowd, had everything in readiness for the great rush which was occasioned on Tuesday night at six o'clock when several special trains arrived bringing delegates from the East and Southwest. The scenes around the convention headquarters in the Wage Barners bank building, were very exciting and the gathering of the two thousand odd visitors in front of the bank waiting to be assigned stopping places attracted wide attention and was a signal for scores of automobile hackmen to abandon their usual stand at the Union station and convey the big crowd of visitors to their stopping places. The job proved a veritable bonanza for the drivers and although but a few of them at the time had on their cars cards reading "National Convention" by mid-day Wednesday it seemed as if every car on West Broad street bore one of these cards. The opening session of the convention Wednesday morning brought together some of the most distinguished Negro Ministers of the Baptist denomination whose adherents number approximately 2,500,000. The meeting was called to order at 10 o'clock and there were about 2,500 present. After devotional exercises, led by the Rev. J. W. Boykin of South Carolina, the program was announced by Prof. R. B. Hudson, secretary, and then the president, Dr. E. C. Morris of Arkansas, appointed the following committees: Enrollment—Wm. H. Steward, Kentucky; A. A. Cosey, Mississippi; B. J. Perkins, Tennessee; J. F. Kersh, Oklahoma; A. D. Williams, Georgia. Finance—R. E. Bryant, Adkansas; F. L. Lights, Texas; W. W. Whtton, Tennessee; J. W. Goodgame, Alabama. Church Finance—I. A. Thomas, Illinois; J. R. Bennett, Pennsylvania; R. M. Cover, Arkansas; B. T. Simms, Mississippi; C. S. Reddleck, Alabama; W. H. Jernagin, District Columbia. Ushers—T. P. Smith, Missouri; W. J. Jackson, Georgia; Geo. McNeal, Kansas; J. N. Murtn, Alabama; L. C. Canady, Mississippi; J. Francis Wilson, North Carolina. After a few remarks by the president, who, took occasion to speak of the great disrupting forces which have been at work in the ranks for the past twelve months, the meeting adjourned until afternoon when the following program was carried out: Devotions by Rev. R. A. Adams, Arkansas; Rev. L. Allen, Jr., D. D., Louisiana; Rev. E. E. Edwards, B. D., Alabama. Welcome, Addresses—On behalf of city, by Judge C. N. Feldelson; on behalf of Baptist of Georgia, by W. M. Reddick, D. D.; on behalf of other denominations, R. H. Singleton, D. D.; on behalf of fraternal organizations and business organizations, by J. C. Lindsay and E. W. Sherman; Esq.; on behalf of white Baptists, Rev. J. J. Taylor, D. D.; on behalf of the professional organizations by Dr. B. W. S. Daniels; on behalf of the Baptist ministers of the city by Rev. Wm. Gray, D. D. The welcome addresses were unusually strong and elicited much applause The attendance was exceedingly large, the crowd packing the church to the utmost. By this time all of the officers of the convention had arrived in town. They were E. C. Morris, Helena, president; W. G. Parks, D. D., Philadelphia, Pa., vice president-at-large; Prof. R. B. Hudson, A. M., Selma, Ala., secretary; Rev. A. J. Stokes, D. D., Montgomery, Ala., treasurer; Prof. M. M. Rogers, Dallas, Tex., auditor; C. H. Parrish, D. D., Loulsville, Ky., Statistical secretary. Wednesday night the church was crowded, the principal feature being the annual sermon by Dr. A. R. Johnson of Wicksburg, Miss. It was a masterly address and the speaker emphasized the fact that the time calls for preachers giving a true message to their congregations. He said they must have something of value to deliver from their pulps. Others who took part in the evening services were Rev. W. D. Johnson, Kentucky; Rev. J. H. Evans, Georgia; Rev. S. A. Moses, Virginia; and Rev. Thomas H. White, Virginia. Thursday morning's session was taken up principally, with the president's address. It was considered by the leading members of the convention the most scholarly message given to the body during the twenty-three years Dr. Morris has headed the convention. Knowing that the church would prove miserably inadequate to house the great throng gathered to hear President Morris's message, the committee in charge of the service decided to have an out door meeting and gather outside the church. In the square were fully five thousand persons who listened with wrap attention as the speaker delivered his address. The address dealt with all of the critical problems confronting the denomination and time after time the speaker was interrupted by roaring applause. Chief interest, however, was centered in the speaker's discussion of the law suit over the National Publishing House in Nashville, Tenn. On this matter President Morris said: "Much has been said about the suit entered for possession of the property which has been built up at Nashville, with the money given by the thousands of Baptist churches and Sunday sheools of this country, and the officers of the convention have been severely criticized for not pushing the matter to an early conclusion, but I beg to say, there has been no meeting of the convention since the publishing plant was snatched from the hands of the people one year ago at Chicago, and the executive board having no means at its command, could not do more than it has done, and is bringing the matter to you who constitute a higher court, and that board stands ready to execute whatever orders may be given. "But may I be permitted to suggest that the matter of forcing the National Baptist Publishing Board to turn over your property to you, be carefully and dispassionately considered before any further action be taken. I am reliably informed that the plant is heavily in debt, and mortgaged to the limit, and that as soon as a decision is rendered, which in my opinion could not be otherwise than in your favor, that the principal creditors will at once apply for a receiver, so as to not alone get the present income of that house, but the money which the loyal Baptist churches and Sunday schools are sending to the board created by you, for their Sunday school literature. So far, most of the burden of paying attorney's fees has been borne by the Sunday School Publishing Board, which in its present condition is hardly able to bear this responsibility alone, and if the suit is to be continued, the amounts given by that board should be augmented by the convention." The address consumed about an hour and a half and during the entire time of the address but few were seen to leave the vast gathering within range of the speaker's voice. Immediately following the address, the various state delegations held their meetings preparatory to the election of officers which was to take place in the afternoon. There was not even the slightest intimation of any opposition to the present incumbent as chief executor of the convention, the only ques- (Continued on page 4) MASONIC CONFERENCE IN CHICAGO A GREAT EVENT Dr. H. R. Butler Who Was Shown So Much Honor Makes Glowing Account of the Meeting On Monday August 21, the following bodies of colored, Masons met in the city of Chicago for a conference among themselves; the Grand Masters, Past Grand Master and Grand Secretaries of thirty-five grand lodges, the International conference of Knights Templar, the International Conference of Royal Arch Masons, the Supreme Council of Scottish Rite Masons for the Northern Jurisdiction and the Imperial Council of the Mystic Shrine. All of these bodies were well attended by a large number of representatives from all parts of the country. The body I went to attend was, perhaps, the most interesting and important of all. It was the conference of Grand Masters. These Grand Masters, Past Grand Masters and Grand Secretaries were there from all thirty-five grand lodges and twenty three of them were represented by their Grand Masters. This was indeed a most wonderful gathering. It was the first time that so many Grand Lodges were thus represented by colored men in this country. Georgia was represented by your humble servant. It was the largest and wealthiest of all the Grand lodges there represented and a great ovation was tended the Grand Master when he rose to speak on any topic. The meetings of the conference were held in the great auditorium of the Y. M. C. A. This building cost nearly $20,000 and is a great credit to the colored people of the city of Chicago. All the other branches of Masonry meeting in that city at that time recognized the great truth that they were dependent upon the grand lodges for a foundation upon which to work and therefore, put forth extra efforts to make it pleasant for the Grand Masters, Past Grand Masters and Grand Secretaries. Grand Master A. Martin of Illinois, did himself honor in welcoming the Grand Masters and other Masonic bodies to the city and jurisdiction. The conference of all the Grand Chapters of the Eastern Star met there at the same time. Georgia was represented in the Eastern Star conference by our Royal Grand Matron, Sister Viola Hart. She took special care of the interest of the jurisdiction over which she has the honor to preside. She represented one of the largest jurisdictions of the order and was given a great ovation. Sister Hart, was on, the committee that brought the greetings from the conference of the Eastern Star to the conference of Grand Masters and the Grand Master of Georgia was one of the committee sent out to escort the ladies of that committee into the hall where the Grand Masters were assembled in order that they may de'iver their message of greetings. They all made fine addresses, as did our own Royal Grand Matron. As I said in the out set, all of these bodies held fine meetings and were well attended, but as we were sent to the Grand Masters' conference we attended that mostly. Much important work was accomplished for the good of Masonry throut the world among colored men. Our brethren will receive reports of this work at the proper time and at the proper place. The following executive board was elected for the next year: Past Grand Master A. W. Dungee, Michigan; Grand Master Wm. O. Payne New York; Grand Master J. F. Richards, Chatham, Ontario, Canada; Grand Master T. A. Harris, Los Angeles, Cal.; Grand Master A. A. Martin, Calro, Ill.; Grand Master Joseph Evans, Baltimore, Mr.; Grand Master S. M. Strayhorne, Martin, Tenn.; Grand Master Cory Adams, Findley, Ohio; and Grand Master H. R. Butler, M. D., Atlanta, Ga. The next conference of the Grand Masters will be held in the city of Louisville, Ky., in August 1917. The colored people are now holding jobs in the west that they have never held before. This is due to the fact that so many of the foreigners have returned home to take their place on the battle field. The railroad section hands from Atlanta to Chicago are now largely colored men; before the war, after leaving Kentucky this work was largely done by foreign labor. It is an ill wind that blows good to no one." God knows best what to do. Let us leave this to Him. Another thing that seems sure in the west and that is Wilson is beaten. The people seem to be disgusted with (Continued on page 8) --- NUMBER 44 BASEBALL LEAGUE CLOSES MONDAY EUREKAS AND ADELPHIAS TIE FOR FIRST PLACE Last Game to be Witnessed by Very Large Crowd. The Athletic park was the scene of a triple header on Labor day which was supposed to be the closing event of the Negro Social Clubs Baseball League, but on account of darkness, the management decided to continue the games to a later date. The called off game between the Adelphias and Roosters which was scheduled for last Monday was played Wednesday afternoon and the Adelphias won by a score of 5 to 2. The winning of this game by the Adelphias ties them with the Eurekas for first place. The tie will be played off Monday afternoon. Both teams are strengthening themselves and a hard fought and exciting game is expected to decide the pennant winners of the league. Much interest was manifested in the game on Wednesday between the Piney Wood and Urban League. The former team was picked by baseball dopsers to win and thereby make the race for the pennant a three-cornered affair, but the prophecies failed when the Urban League boys raced home with the winning run, 6-5. Preceeding the triple header on Labor day, there was a game between the Home Boys and the Adelphias which resulted in the defeat of the latter by a score of 4-3. The big event began about 3 o'clock before a large and entustastic crowd and every moment during the games was featured with brilliant and fast ball playing. The first game was between the Urban League and Home Boys and by agreement of the managers of the two teams, the game went five innings and resulted in the defeat of the League boys, they receiving a shut out. The second game was between the Eurekas and Piney Wood and was scheduled to go seven innings but it took eleven innings before the deciding run was scored. This was by far the most interesting game of the day and both teams played in big league form. Good pitching, brilliant fielding and excellent head work were displayed Hampton did the wrilling for the Piney Wood and Lockhart for the Eurekas. The game was easily the best of the season and the boys put up a great article of balt. The Eureka team outplayed the Piney Wood and had several excellent chances of winning the game, but the effective work of Hampton in the pinches, being ably supported by "Sahin" Golden, who was doing the catching, cut down several probabilities of their opponents scoring. The game finally ended in the eleventh inning when, with a man on second for the Piney Wood, Mal Bryan by slow fielding, failed to reach a fly ball hit to right field by "Spitfire" Sims, the Eunrekas going down in defeat by a score of 3-2. The last game was between the Roosters and Adelphias, this game being called on account of darkness. The score standing 1-1. As the game Monday is the last of the season the admission will be ladies 10 cents, men 15 cents. Standing of Clubs NAME G W L P.O.

Lindsay) 1 The fmportant lexsons {which the Negro in business might Jearn to great s advantage from the other fellow in business, provided, he would simply take the time to study the methods employed by him, which invariably bring him to his success. The item of advertising is regaraea by the other fellow who has turned every thing his bands has touched into money, a winner, when such ads have been prop- erly placed. Byery business"man of the race should see to it that bis business is kept before the people. “Penny wise and pound foolish” methods which are some times practiced by some of our so-called business men, have been the means of them meeting face to face with ignominious and crushing defeat in their undertaking, which might have been on the other hand, pro- nounced success. | It the other fellow with his years, yea, centuries of experience and train- ing in matters pertaining to business, pure and simple, finds it absolutely nec essary to take great advertising space In the great metropolitan dailies, in order to keep his business properly be- fore the people with money’in hand to spend, does it not stand to reason that we, the child race in this coun- try, should sce to it that we at least turn a certain portion of our profits in this channel, in oraer that we too, might share in this important matter which is of such vital concern to the race? Let the Negro business man everywhere look this matter squarely in the face, and say within himself “if the other felloy must advertise in order to zet business amd to keep the people informed ax te what he has for sale and as to his lecation, he toc, will do likewise, if it takes that te deliver the goods.” Caartery in business is one of the cheapest. yet pays the greatest divi- dend on investment. of any of the ele. ments in the basis of any of our sev- eral enterprises. People everywhere Eke to do business with the pain taking, polite and courteous Insiness man, be he white or black. None of 1s like It said of us that “He does not ay enonzh attention to his, busines. THe dues net seem to want nor dees he ari: preeate my trade” Such are awful) fudictments to be preferred against a member of the race engaged in busi- ness, by smother member of the race with money in hand to spend, and yet, we must be honest with you and with ourselves and neknowledge tit in some exses it is true.

It is almost nest to 2 physical impossibility to insult one of them in his place of business, when you are helping him in furnishing the where- withal that keeps his doors open. There !s much good in the foreigner’s actions in this regard, that many, of us, as members of the race engaged in business, might get out of the dipto- matic example given which, is edu- cative In business principles, to say the least. Preparedness means more than simp- ly having a little capital ahead and a month’s rént pald in advance. We fear that upon this principle of pre- paredness, many hard working, yet mis- informed young men of the race have in a few months parted with what it took him several years to get together. In the matter of successfully competing with the other fellow who Is doing everything he can for himself and for the business which he represents, men of our race engaged in similar lines, must pay strict attention to those win- ning points Introduced by the man who is actually succeeding. There is no just reason why a Ne gro's place of business should be known because of the careless and slovenly way that bnsiness is kept. There may he some reasonable excuses for some stores not being as fine and in the mean time, not having in them all of the latest improved methods, such as over head electrical wires and many other labor and time-saving devices fer the handling of great businesses like the ones which are handled by some of the fellows of other races who have had yearseand years the start on us, tmt this one thing fs cer- tain, we can certainly keep our places of Imsiness clean, well lighted, free from eob webs. dust and fly specks. We should sce to it that our places ef business compare favorably with those places of business kept by members of, other races when it comes to cleanli- ness ani politeness. These two ean he had by any and all who may desire them. © Come early fo your next meetin. which will be held at headquarters, Friday evening, September 15, 1916 amd bring a friend with you apd join in the discussion of a fine and het Insiness subject. aa CARD OF THANKS , Mr. and Mrs. C.

RACE ARTISANS GIVEN ; CHANCE TO GET WORK Large Manufacturing Establishment ‘Will Employ’ Negro Machinists Holyoke, Mass.—Another industrial opportunity for the Negro artisan is opened here in one of the largest es- tablishments in thls town and one of the biggest machinery plants in the country. Skilled men, familiar with the work In pattern shops, machine shops and foundry will be employed at wages ranging from $2.75 to $4.00 per day, and there will be opportunity to advance as high as $6 per day or more. , © Holyoke is a town of, about 63,000 population, and there are only about ten colored families in the number. ‘The corporation which is now offering this opportunity to the Negro machinist employs about 800 men, and of this number only two are colored. They have been with the company some four or five years, however, and not only 1s thelr work satisfactory to thelr em- ployers, but the treatment received "makes them perfectly satisfied, Urban League Applied_To The corporation in question applied to Jobn T. Clark, secretary of the in- dustrial bureau of the National Lea- gue for advice in regard to securing colored employees. Autnorized by the league, Mr. Clarke has made a trip to Holyoke and given a day to person- al investigation of conditions. He states that the proposition is ideal and offers one of the best opportunities yet opened for the Negro artisan. The company proposes to employ event- ually at Jeast two hundred colored men, if qualified workers can be found. Skilled, sem{-skilled and unskilled 1e- bor will be used; and the men employed will be given’ every opportunity ’ to ‘make’ good and to advance. 5 ‘The. scale of: wages’ offered by- the company 3s liberal and conditions under which the work {s done are ag pleas: ant as ts possible to make them. Un skilled is pald at the rate of 20 cents per hour, on a 10 hour-a-day basis, Sem{-skitled and’ skilled labor will range from $2,75' to "$4, and some of the-men now employed are making $5 and $6 per day. The owners of this corporation declared to Mr. Clark that the colored employees will be accord: ed everg, opportunity to make good; [that nothing will stop the odlored man from qualifying for the same employ: ment and the same wages as the white employee. - But emphasis {3 lad on the fact that the success of this experiment’ will depend on the securing of a dependable class of men to accept these positions ‘The predominating influence 18’' Hol yoke is Irish-Catholic, and there ha: been in the past an undercurrent o! prejudice against Negro labor. Bu four years ago the experiment wa: tried of using Negro labor and abou! ten colored men were brought in from the West. These men dropped int the work and not in the slightest de ree has any friction arose. Thel contact with the whité men has beer most amicable and friendly, and now the company is convinced that th better class of Negro labor can be use: {to advantage. . 7 Living conditions in Holyoke ar Jgood.

She made her debut last summer in Shreveport, La., where she held her audience speechless. Her range is a wide one, her runs smooth and nowing, trills light and delicate, low tones deep and full, and shading very artistic. She makes one forget himself in the realm of song. Miss Coleman comes to us for the first time but we are sure from past reputation she will more than please us. Miss Buggs is a pianist of no mean ability, possessing a beautiful, sympathetic touch together with a keen sense of the fine and delicate points of shading. She is said to be one of the most artistic of the graduates of the conservatory of Fisk University.

To part with one, we loved so dear; Our loss is great we will not complain; But trust in God we will meet again. Dearest love one we have laid thee, In the peaceful grave's embrace; But thy memory will be cherished, Till we see thy loving face. We loved you, yes we loved you, But Jesus loved you best; And he sweetly called you. To His eternal rest. Yet again we hope to meet you, When the days of life are fled; There in-heaven with joy to greet you, Where we will never say farewell.

C. Hush'd are the winds, and still the evening gloom, not even a zephyr wanders through the grove whilst we return in sadness to view our mother's tomb, and scatter flowers on the dust we love. But wherefore weep? Her matchless spirit soars beyond where splendid shines the orb of day. Where endless pleasures virtue's deeds repay. And shall presumptuous mortals heaven arraign? And, madly, Godlike province accuse? Oh; no, far fly from us at accuse? Oh! no, fly far from us at to our God refuse, yet in remembrance of those virtues dear, yet fresh the memory of that bright face and in our hearts retain their wanted place. Mrs. Wm.

It often happens that the dirst chill winds catch us unprepared, und certainly there is nothing more upretting than to realize that we had not given a thought to the coming of fall and were, cgnsequentty, not ready for the change of. the weather. ‘The autumn styles are already well established, so no one need be afraid to make her selection in sults and gowns early, for there is no danger that they will not be in good style later. The suit models that have come over from Paris are as attractive as they can be. ‘The coats are mosfly three-quarter Jength and some of them are shorter. They reach to the hips, the finger tips or the kuees. The skirts are quite full; just as full as they were last fall, but not so flaring. ‘The lines are straighter, as a rule, and the skirts just a trifle’ longer than they baye th. yl TR Cr. - ah = ; ns Mase SS SS ene eee ee been worn in the past seasons. Strict- I tailored suits, of course. do not have Very wide or long skirts. Among the cout styles there are some Russian effects seen, which mo-t wo- meu will be happy to learn. One of the favored models is fitted above the waist and quite full below it, and there are marly variations of thts idea, » A suit that gives prombe of being very well liked on account of its gen- erally hecoming \lines fs Mustrated dere, It hay deep pockets which are cut in one with the fronts of the coat, and a narrow belt gotg around tne| sides and back, but not the front, ‘The skirt that completes thts sult has poe- kets corresponding in ent to thore of the coat. In the other sult shown here, there ix a suggestion of the Empire style, the return of which we have been hearing so much }bout ately. It comes in a modified form, having a panel in the front and back, and is certainly most attractive. A wonderfully smart suit from Paris was made of navy blue gabardine, with a very long, full coat. The skirt abo was very full, It extended up above the normal waszeline. where it was attached to a blouse of brown and Diack ehecked silk, and when thrown open tke effect of the whore costume was very striking. Suit Fabrics and Colors ‘There are charming suit materials for fall, which will pernaps make it Aifficult to decide on what to get. Be- sides the old stand-by serge, there Is its staunch companion, gabardine; then there are wool poptin, wool vel- ours, broadcloth,’ cheviot, mixtures, and many fancy twills and suitings. * For dress wear, velvet, velveteen and satin’ will be very much in the fore- ground. The checked wool velours are very stylish in two tones as, for instance, black, and brown, tan and brown, and gray and brown. They are most practical too, for they wear very well. The fashionable self tones are navy blue, dark brown, given, taupe, gray, burgundy, and black. Fur For Trimming Did any woman fear that fur on her suit last winter would not be fashion- able this year? If so, ‘let her fear be turned to joy, for fur is to he used even more lavishly than it was last winter. The bands of fur on skirts are wider, the fur collars on coats, just as high, and the cuffs on the sleeves just as deep. Rfbbit an& skunk are the furs most commonly used, and there are also Hudson seal, beaver, fox, lynx, moteszin, and ermine, all of which were used last winter.

THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Memory Verses, 31, 32—Golden Text, Acts xxii, 15—Commentary Prepared |, by Rev. D. M. Stearn, ‘This chapter telis of the completion of Paul's retarn journey to Jerusalem from his third missionary tour and of some of the happenings there after his return, Our lesson two weeks ago was his farewell to the elders of the church at Ephesus who came to Miletus to meet him. Salling by the south of the island of Cyprus, they landed at Tyre and, finding disciples, tarrled there seven days. We may imagine what blessed fellowship they had in the word and in prayer and that wonder- ful farewell on the shore when men, women and children knelt in prayer. Knowing the message of the Spirit through the disciples that Paul should not go up to Jerusalem, they could scarcely refrain from feeling some anx- ety about him, but they could only /commit him to God, as they could not | dissuade him from going on (verses 1-6), Continuing thelr voyage, we find | them next at Caesarea at the home of Philip, the evangelist, one of the seren, ‘whose four danghters did prophesy, and there they tarried many days, and again we may.easily imagine the fel- lowshjp in the word and in prayer. ‘We eannot think of Pant tarrying any- where without speaking of Christ cru- cifled, risen again, ascended, interced- ing and returning to set up His king- dom and always urging the bellevers to walk worthy of such a God and Saviour, who had called them to sueb a Kingdom and glory and made them joint helrs with Himself. While at the home of Philip a, prophet from Judea named Agabus ‘came and testified strongly by the Spirit that at Jerusa- lem Paul would certainly be bound and given into the hands of tle gentiles. Therefore he was once more urged by the believers not to go, but his reply was that he was ready to be bound and to dle also.for the name of the Lard Jesus (rerses 7-13). At the time of his conversion the Lord told .\nanias that Paul Svould be called upon to suffer great things, and on this journey to Jerusalem Paul wag impressed that something unusual awaited him, Yet nothing moved him, and he counted not his life dear unto himself {f only he might glorify God (chapters ix, 15, 16; xx, 22-25; Phil, i, 20). When he would not be persuaded even by the brethren at Caesarea to give up going to Jerusalem at this time they ceased pleading with him: saying, “The will of the Lord be done,” and so the company went on their way to Jerusalem, accompanied by some disciples from Caesarea and an otd disclple from Cyprus with whom they were to lodge (verses 14-16). When the spirit hindered Paul from going into Asia or Bithynia he yielded and obeyed (chapter xvi, 6-7). Was he obedient now or somewhat self willed, or was he simply bold and fearless in dolng what he bellered to be right, knowing that {t was part of his calling to suffer for Christ's sake and he must not shrink from it? Sub- sequent events and the words fn verse 4 “that he should not go up to Jeru- salem” would seem to indicate that this time he was a bit self willed. But it is one of those things that I am waiting to have cleared up in the king- dom, meanwhile desiring for myself more of his fearless boldness and whole hearted devotion to the Lord. A glad welcome awalted him at Jeru- salem from James and the elders, and as he declared in detait what things God had wrought among the gentiles by his ministry they glorified the Lord (erses 17-20). The record in verses 20-26 concerning the thousands of be- Ueving Jews who were zealous of the | law and insisted upon eircumeision and other customs for Jews who believed [is to me another perplexity and does ; not look like the freedom wherewith Christ sets us free GJobn vill, 32-36; Gal v, 1). The suggestion of James ! and the elders that Paul shall seek to | conciliate these custom keeping Jews by joining in this vow with four other | men does not seem like the leading of the Spirit or in accord with Paul's stand, “Not as pleasing men, but God, who trieth our hearts” (I Thess. if, 4; Gal. {, 10). Nelther did {t work out as \they had hoped that it would, but led to a riot which moved the whole city, causing Paul to be cast out of the tem- ple and beaten as they went about to Kill him, necessitating his rescue from thelr hands by the chief captain and his soldiers (verses 27-32). - As the captain could not understand what the uproar was about nor who Paulywas nor what be had done, for some cried one thing and+some anoth- | See eee eee.

One author says: “Certainly ft seems that at least ten millions were expactriated. Probably every <laye imported reprevented an average of five corpse in Africa or on the high seas, ‘The American slave trade, therefore, meant the elimination of at least sixty million “(60,000,000) Negroes from their fatherland. The Mohammedan slave trade meant the expatriation or forcible migration in Africa of nearly as many more. It THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE poean Ife to the West Indian planta- tion was a social revolution, Marriaze hecape zevzraphicul and transient, while women and girly were without protection, ‘The private home as a self-yrotective, Independent unit afd not exist. That powerful institution, the polysimous African home, was al- most completely destroyed and in its place in America, arose sexual pro- miscuity, a weak commuuity life, with common dwelling, meafs, and child nurseries. The internal slave trade tenled further to weaken natural ties.

Perkaps they conti not. If this was so, then the story of the last half-century had to be as it was. At thi, point the author writes: “Quite unexpectedly and without forethought the nation had enrmeipated four mil- lion slaves. Onew the deed was done, the majority ef the nation was clad and recognized that this was, atter all, the only result of a fearful fovr years! war which in any sense justi- fied it, Tint Inv was the result to be scenre for all times? There were three possibilities: (1) to declare the slaves free and leave them at the merey of their former masters; (2) to establish a ¢areful government zuardianship, de- signed to suide the slaves from Togal to real economic fredom: (2) te give the Nezra a political power to ard Limvelf as gvell as he could daring the development. It is easy to forget that the United States tried each one of these in snecession. and was literally forced to adopt the third, because the first had fafled utterly, and the sec- ond was thonght too paternal and es pecially too costly. To leave the Nezroes helpless after a paper eilict of emanct- pation’ was manifestly impossible. Tt would hare meant that the war had been fought in vain.” The author's discussion of the Freed- man’s Burean and the whole problem of reconstruction is sane. He neither minifies nor magnifies the situation. To the charge of extravazaned on the part of the Negro governments, he writes: “The extravagance, tha great, ; ‘the author writes: “It still preferred a reign of terror to a campaign ‘of education, and disfranchised Negroes instead of punishing rascals.” The constructive work of*the Negro governments deserves more than word. They gave the South three things: Democratic government, free public schools, new suctal legislation, More tn this, in Jegislation covering prop- erty, the wider functions of the state, the punishment of crime and the like, it Js sufficient to say that the laws on these points established by the re- construction legislatures were not only different from and revolutionary to the laws of the older South, but they were so wise and so well suited to the needs of the new South, that in spite of the retrogressive movement fol- Jowiig the overthrow of the Negro governments, the mass of this lesis- lation, with the elaborations and de- velopments, still stands upon the stat- ute books of the South.” The history since the “triumph of reuction in the South” rs <o recent that it need not be dwelt upon fn this re- view. ‘To the writer of this review, the legiMation of the reaction and since stimed at the Nezro seems “class lezislation”, and therefore abhorrent to Line spivit and letter of the Constitn- tan.

The West is a fine, fre eguntry and I would advise our youn! men to go West and make their mone} and save it and become a part of th people and country. In Chicago the men and women ear vote and take a part in the politica! interests of the city, country and state. ‘Where men can vote they will be re. spected; here in this state we cannot vote, hencé we are not respected. In Chicago tliere are many colored police and colored men in other positioris— even assistant eity attorney—here we cannot haye a job to wash the ele- phant in the zoo, and why, because We cannot vote—because we have not got white Republicans with back bone enough to stand up and put our city, county and state tickets and break up _this white primary. Yourfg men go > where you can be a man, and after get- ting there, be sure you act the man. I saw some young men in Chicago who were making good money, but were living too fast for their own good or amy body else's. Our edueated young men ought to go West, East, North and to foreign countries and especially fo the countries of South America, If I were 2 young man I’ would remain in America just long enough to purchase a ticket to get out. We must learn to do as other races, and that is, leave home—branch out and Iet down our nets on the other side. Four great railroad labor organiza-! tions played the winning card on the Democratic Congress and Senate and President last week. These unions representing four hundred thousand voters simply walked up to the Whire; Tfouse and demanded an eich hour day with a ten hour pay and got it. They knew the trick would turn at this time when votes were wanted. ‘fhix country or any other’ country infected with labor unions is in a ser-, ious condition. These organizations | are in a position to run, rule or ruin; & government in twenty-four hours, | What the government shoutd oe done, ‘instead cf bowinz down, on passing the eight hour Iaw, was to pass a law disbanding all labor unions 4 ani forever hereafter giving all labor-' ers an opportunity to work for whom . they desire and thereby forever doing , away with all strikes. ie | This is what must be done in this country and all other countries infected with labor unions or they are ruined! so far as government is concerned. ‘This government is practically unable | fo govern itself. It is at the mercy of the dictates of labor unions and owing to the poor educational facilities In many of the states, the majority of the members of the unions are not yery high in the seale of the science of government. Hence one can exsily see what will be the fate that falls into the hands of inexperienced and uneducated oflicials, We are having a fore taste of that in many of our Southern city governments today. The jaan in one of our Southern cities that introduced the segregation ordin- ances (and he could not write it) was poor, fgnorant brewery — engineer. elected to the conueil by the labor union~. s Unless the United States takes held of its affairs as a national govern. ment soon and proceeds to administes them. it is doomed before the espir nation of another fifty rears. But whe will “bell the cat?’ What party wil pass such a law? Not the Democrats not the Republicans and not the pro gressives: it must be done by 2 part: yet unborn—a party that believes 1 a government ‘of the people, for th people and by the people—all the pec ple.
