G. H. Bowen Buys Valuable Tract
NEAR ISLE OF HOPE AND ON WATER FRONT
Will Develop Beautiful Picnic Ground And Ideal Settlement
Mr. G. H. Bowen, the leading Negro real estate dealer in the city, consumed a deal on last Saturday by which he came into possession of a beautiful tract of land near Isle of Hope which he hopes to develop into, an ideal Negro settlement and picnic ground. This new subdivision which Mr. Bowen has purchased comprises about forty acres of land and is back of the Demere property and adjacent to the country property of Mr. Joseph Hul. It is high and considered an admirable spot for the scheme which Mr. Bowen intends to develop. Since the property came into the hands of Mr. Bowen it has attracted much attention and several automobile parties have been out inspecting it and it is understood that many prospective purchasers of lots have been lined up.
The new subdivision will be cut up into lots about 80 by 150, admirably suited for small country homes. On the back stretch of the land, leading down to the river will be a causeway of about 300 feet which will give access to deep water. It is proposed to build a pavilion, swings and other amusement features which will make "Hopecrest," the name given to the tract, the most attractive place of the kind around the city to which Negroes have access.
On the property is a fine artesian well and a neat cottage. The opening of Hopsecret will undoubtedly attract not only local Negroes of means but will prove a drawing card to Negroes all over the state. Mr. Bowen hopes in time to erect an electric, lighting plant and to inaugurate a jitney service to the site when it is developed. It is stated that the property was purchased for about $8,000.
HOME BOYS TO HONOR

The occasion which will abound in congratulations to Mr. Burke for the honor he has brought the association and Savannah in general, will be celebrated at the reading rooms of the association on Taylor street between West Broad and Montgomery. Mr. Burke is one of the leading club and fraternal men in the city and his many friends will be on hand Sunday to offer him congratulations for bringing such distinction to Savannah as being elected one of the grand officers of the Odd Fellows, the first time such an honor has been bestowed upon a Savannahian by the order.

The necessity for the existence of Beach is made apparent now than ever in order that children above the sixth grade in the public schools may create a more thorough literary course.
Principal Roland feels gratified over the increased number of inquiries made and applicants received during the week.

Interest In Washington Fund Revived
SCHOOL CHILDREN URGED TO CONTRIBUTE
Hope to Raise $100,000 By Thanksgiving Day
Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Sept 22—With the coming of fall and the passing of hot weather, the country is settling down to hard work. Schools are crowded to capacity and business houses are looking forward to a year of prosperity. This is election year and cotton is selling at sixteen cents.
Loyal men and women of the race are, as a consequence of these conditions, again turning their attention to the Rocker T. Washington Memorial Fund. Voluntary letters are beginning to come in pledging contributions and outlining arrangements for mass meetings which are to be held in various parts of the country this fall. Quite a number of rural schools which closed last spring before April 5th, the day set aside for school children to give to the fund, have asked to be permitted to raise collections this fall. These teachers are faithfully keeping their promises and have written to say that they will send a larger sum than they first thought possible because of the general better conditions which prevail now in the country districts as against those of the early spring, when there was so much panic talk of hard times. It is hoped that other teachers of city and rural schools who for one reason or another failed to lift collections from school children last spring will not fall to do so this fall.
The Memorial Fund Committees, in various cities which held over their mass meetings and active campaigns until fall are in many instances getting effective work done in arousing the colored people to the duty of responding to this appeal for one-eighth of the Two Million Dollar Memorial Fund to perpetuate the work of the late Booker T. Washington—that is $250,000. Of the sum which the white people were asked to give to this fund they have given more than half, while the colored people have not yet given one-fifth of the amount they were asked to give.
The colored people of Baltimore, Md. have pledged themselves to raise one per cent of the amount to be given by the colored people. This will be $2,500. Deciding upon a definite amount to be raised is one of the important things, because it outlines for the people just the amount of work they have before them. Besides it gives pulse and dignity to the campaign in a city and affords better opportunity for organizing. At the monster meeting which they will have in Baltimore on November 18th, there will be an excellent program and on that date the churches, schools, fraternal organizations, and the clubs and societies of various sorts will make their returns, following a whirlwind campaign of the city. Mr. Harry T. Pratt, Dean William Pickens and other prominent Baltimore citizens have written most encouraging letters to Tuskegee Institute regarding the outlook for a successful effort.
In his annual address before the National Baptist Convention which met at Savannah, Ga., during the week of September 4th, Dr. E. C. Morris, the president, called upon the members of the convention and the prominent men and women of the race to help raise this $250,000 from among the colored people. Dr. Morris said: "The National Baptist Convention will greatly honor itself if the hundreds of prominent leaders who are gathered here will throw the full weight of their influence into the effort now being made to raise our part of the Two Million Dollar Memorial Fund to perpetuate the work founded by Dr. Booker T. Washington, the greatest man of his time."
With such support from the Baptist dexamination, of which Dr. Washington was a member, and with the support of the Memorial Fund Committees in cities and teachers in rural communities to raise by Thanksgiving day a very large part of our share of this fund. We should raise $100,000 by

Draped on Small Turbans or Sailor Shapes It Is Quite Irresistible
New York, September 15—"I simply must have one of those new vells. I think they are so fascinating!" This, I overheard a young girl saying to her friend the other day on Fifth Avenue. The vell she referred to was a long, flowing one draped over the top of a small high-crowned hat with a narrow turned-down brim, like the one pictured here. It was caught together in front and fastened to the top of the crown with a large, round pin, and from there
J. MUCARZ
Satin Dress' Braided with Soutache it hung softly down the back. No wonder this young girl was so enthusiastic about it, for it really was the most adorable affair on the smartly dressed young woman who wore it. The vell formed a charming, cloud-like background to her pretty face and floated gently in the air as she walked. The vell was of lace and the hat was of satin.
There are ever so many charming veils of this type nowadays and one sees dozen and dozens of them. They are made of chiffon, silk net or lace, some of them finished with borders and others without. And they come in a variety of colors to suit every complexion and every taste. Some of the prettiest one are in lovely shades of purple, soft rose-color, lavender, taupe, green and blue, as well as black and white. They are sometimes worn on small close-fitting turbans and again on large sailor shapes.
Hats and veils like these are worn with frocks of serve, satin or silk. The one pictured here was worn with a dress of black satin with a snug bodice fitted at the waist with soft pleats, the skirt had a full tunic pleated at the waist and made with the popular loop pockets, which were faced with purple satin to match the purple-braided design which trimmed the dress. This is one of the favored designs for autumn and it certainly is a most becoming one. The sleeves were cleverly cut to form a point below the elbow, where a silk tassel was placed.
A Popular Fall Model
There is another type of dress for fall which is rapidly gaining more and more advocates every day. This is the one-piece frock of which an illustration is shown here. It shows the straighter effect and long lines which Parisian houses have made a point of featuring this season. Long straps starting from the shoulders, under the large collar, and working their way down to either side of the front, relieve the severity of this simple design. Little slash pockets are paced on both the straps below the belt line.
In some of these one-piece dresses, a long narrow girdle of the material is worn loosely around, the figure several times and tied at the back or front in a loose knot. The ends are often finished with silk tassels. The belt is generally arranged at the low waistline, giving a suggestion of the Moyen Age effect, which, it is predicted, will become popular again.
The materials most favored for these practical frocks are satin, broadcloth, fine serge, tricotine, fancy twills, gabardine and poplin. The Parislene favors wool jersey very highly for these one-piece frocks, also the checked velours de laine which are considered so very smart. These materials are excellent for shopping motoring and such occasions when one must be simply though smartly dressed. Some of the colors are dark brown, terra cotta, orange and green. The combinations in checked velours are dark green with beige, gray with navy blue, and beige with Burgundy, not to speak of the
and white checks, which never seem to lose their popularity.
Shirts are Longer and Straighter
There is a decide tendency to longer and straighter-hanging skirts in most made, many dresses noticeably longer; of the autumn models. Paquin has both for street and evening wear, and many of the other Parisian couturieres
© MCCALL
An Example of the Straighter Effects have lengthened the skirts for the coming season, though not to an exaggerated degree. The skirts have not lost any of their fullness in their downward tendency. They simply follow the lines of the figure more closely and do not flare as much. The hoop skirts and crinoline effects are practically dead and some soft draperies are seen in their stead, especially in evening and afternoon dresses of satins, crepes and soft silks.

BUSINESS LEAGUE SEES PERMANENT IMPROVEMENTS
One of the encouraging signs, as regards the permanent and intelligent competitiveness of the Negro men engaged in business in this community is the wonderful improvements and expansion which they are making from time to time in their various businesses.
It is indeed encouraging to note the fact, that nearly all of our men in business have enlarged or improved their places of business in the last two years. These splendid improvements which are being made by our men in business from time to time, argue volumes in their favor, as real live up-to-date business factors in this community. Less than two years ago, the Wage Earners which was a savings and loan corporation, and which had done a magnificent business in that capacity, in the matter of actually teaching the people of the race the habit of thrift and economy, as well as teaching them that it was possible for Negroes to engage into the banking business and have the depositors money when he or she called for it, has been forced to move out of the quarters that they then occupied and has placed on the corner of Alice and West Broad streets, the larges and best Negro banking house in this country. Not only did this institution find it necessary to move out and get into more commodious quarters, that it might handle its growing business with more ease, but it found that it was also necessary to have its quarters revised, so that it might be a real banking business no one could could question on any grounds. So, today, this bank, The Wage Earners Savings, is under the supervision of the state and is examined quarterly by the state examiners, just the same as any other of the larger banks, operated by the other fellow.
The Guaranty Mutual, a local insurance company with headquarters in this city, was forced to move out of the quarters that it occupied just a little more than a year ago, so that it might handle with more ease its prosperous and growing business. The Atlanta Mutual Insurance Association, which handles the largest volume of industrial insurance business of any of the companies in the local field, was forced to seek larger quarters so that it might handle its growing business with more ease. The Mechanics Savings Bank, which was formerly located on the corner of York and Barnard streets, was forced to leave that location so that it might handle its large and growing business with more ease. The Savannah Pharmacy Company which, for a number of years was located at the corner of Gwinnett lane and West Broad street, was forced to erect for the handling of its steadily increasing business, a large and commodious two story modern brick building, that it might have more room for the accommodation of its high class trade. Scott Brothers, the oldest dry goods concern run by Negroes in this section of the state, have recently remodeled their store front, and put into their growing business new labor and time saving devices, which enable them to handle their business with more ease, and in the mean time, offer their high-class growing trade better accommodations in their lines. G. H. Bowen, the hustling real estate man, whose trade mark is "I Sell the Earth," came to Savannah some four or five years ago, walking over the city with a roll of blue prints of certain lots in his hand, saying to every Negro the met, "you ought to own your own home." Just how much attention was given to Mr. Bowen in his advice and admonition along this line one will only have to take a Battery Park car and go to the end of the line and get off, and go in a southeastly direction for about seven blocks and see what this man, with little capital and an unusually large amount of pluck, energy, and confidence in himself and the people, was able to do with a wilderness in the matter of making it a place fit for people to live in. This place known as "Cann Park" is one of the very best and most choice places for our people in this entire city. But this is not what I started out to tell you about. I started to tell you how this man Bowen outgrew himself. Bowen went into a small place near the corner of Charles and West Broad streets, and remained there for a while. this place became too small, or Bowen grew, too large. I can't say which. However, Bowen had to seek new quarters, just across the street from the present location of the Wage Earners Savings bank. In less than a year from the time that Bowen had made his second move, it was time
for him to make his third. Today Mr. Bowen occupies, the largest and one of the prettiest real estate offices in this entire city and section, regardless of race or color. It is indeed gratifying to note, that the Negro in business is beginning to learn that he, like the other fellow must meet the requirements of this progressive age. If the other fellow finds it necessary to attract people to him, with money in hand to spend, we, the child race in this country, will certainly have to learn the same important lesson.
Come early to your next meeting, Wednesday, evening October 4th, and bring a friend with you and join in the discussion of a real live business subject.

At the late B. M. C., held in Washington, Georgia was honored by the election of one of her sons as grand auditor in the person of Bip. Ed. H. Burke of Savannah. Not since the election of the late L. L. Lee as deputy grand master has Georgia brought so much credit to herself as in this election.
At our delegation meeting Monday night, September 11, Bro. A. Graves was endorsed for one of the places as grand direcor and every one in our delegation would have stood by him to the last with the exception of the three henchmen who went there for the sole purpose of creating confusion.
Georgia could have easily had one of the grand directors but on account of the litigation in the Fulton superior court, it was decided best not to elect one and Bro. Graves released our delegation from further support rather than prolong the law suit by being served with all sorts of court papers as a member of the Sub-Committee of Management.
Since our return home, it has been brought to my attention that G. W. Owens, one of the three intended disturbers, has spread the news broad cast that none of the other delegations would have Bro. Graves and that he (Owens) made it possible for Bro. Burke to be elected. This is as far from the truth as the east is from the west and as a matter of fact. Owens had no more to do with the naming and election of Burke than I had with the nomination of Mr. Dorsey for Governor of Georgia.
Dr. Daniels and I are the only members of the Georgia delegation that had any part in the naming of Burke for the place while Owens knew nothing of it until ten minutes before he was placed in nomination. Owens is reported as saying "Ed. Morris sent for me and told me plainly that Graves was too hot headed and could by no means get on and for me to name the man and I named Burke for the place."
If I did not know Grand Master Morris, I would never believe he spoke to Owens except when he was addressing our delegation. Owens asked so many foolish questions until the Grand Master lost patience with him Owens) and told him the questions Ole was asking were not germane and that he would not answer them and re-

quested Owens to take his seat and let him proceed. Ed. Burke does not owe his selection or election, not even in part, to Owens. On the other hand Owens did not want to vote for him at all and tried to have epileptic fits when I, as chairman, was about to announce the vote of the state. He was the only one present or absent who was grouchy enough to offer any objection to the election of that competent son, Ed H. Burke.
I bring this to the attention of the brotherhood because of so many false rumors and reports by the enemies of our welfare and to let them know that these falsifiers and peace breakers whom the other delegates did not know nor want to know are endeavoring to mislead you and credit themselves with something they had nothing to do with.
There are only a few of the disturbers and disgruntles left besides Owens, and like him, they will soon be wiped off the map.

We have been’ warm advocates of
an industrial education, and see no
necessity of changing our {dea, but
we are thoroughly against overdoing
it by adding too much to a public
school course, ‘The pupils are too
young to take in so much along with
the Iterary course.
Next Mouday morning the streets
will be enlivened by hundreds of boys
and ‘girls wending thelf way to the
various schools.
It is amusing to read the Southern
dailies and upte,the amount of bluster
that is placed in the articles boosting

head of “Negro ‘Farmers /Bankins
Money,”"by the Albany (Ga.) Herald:
“An? official of an+Albany bank
made the statement yesterday that
within the last few weeks fully 300
Negro farmers had opened accounts
with bis bank, their deposits rang-
Ing from $50 to $75 for the smaller
aceounts to several hundred dol-
Jars for the larger ones. The.
number of these accounts is stead-,
ily increasing, and the amounts,
on deposit will be’ furthér aug.;’
mented by those to whose credit
the money stands. 2 a
“A canvas of the other banks off
the city, as well as banks through-
out Southwest Georgia, would no-
doubt show a* similar gratifying
reflection of the present prosperous
conditions in this part of the state.
Hundreds ‘of farmers who have
been in debt for several years,
banks or merchants or warehouse
men had to “carry over” varying’
amounts for them season after sea-
son, have this year paid every dol-
Tar they owed, and uow have mone;
in tho bank that is ‘pure velvet’.
“Pecullarly gratifying fs this
fortunate condition of the Negro
farmers. The bank official already
“referred to says that, among all
classes of depositors, the colored
farmer is least likely to draw out
his mones, once he has it in hank,
He literally ‘salts. it down’ against
future needs, and will_not check
it unless forced to by cireumstane-
3 to use all or part of it.
“With the certainty of a battle
at? close quarters with. the boll
wevil next year, the fact that so
many Colored farmers are not only
out of debt, but have money laid
» aside for the rainy “Way that’s
coming, is most encouraging.
“It wll give the farmers a big"
advantage when they open the’
fight next year, Nineteen bun-
dred and sixteen is proving a
“fat year.’ and it is coming at a
most fortunate time.” > 8

On last Thursday night, September 21st the officers of the Eureka Aid and Athletic Club were installed by Mr. E. W. Sherman. The exercise was said to be the best in the history of the club. Mr. Sherman was at his best and in his masterly address he outlined the direct meaning of the word "Eureka" explaining the origin of the name which the club has adopted as its own. The club room was packed to its utmost with both the members and their female guests. Several of the office made short talks including Messrs T. J. Carter vice-president. T. H: Green, financial secretary, and J. S. Daniels, recording secretary. The latter's address was the comical part of the exercise as the many things he said put the house in an uproar of laughter. Mr. J. R. Brown made an eloquent talk. Mr. J. J. Brown's recitation was the ellmax of the exercises. After the exercises the members and their guests were recipients of a lunch-eon in the dining room of the club, prepared by the committee of which Mr. A. L. Floyd was chairman.

THE WOMAN
Over Money In RealEstate
Fidelity to duty is the key to true manhood.
As Masons, we are taught conciliation, not aggression.
Masonry strengthens faith in God and hope in immortality.
Masons believe in the efficacy of prayer. Hence every lodge communication is opened and closed with an invocation to Delty.
Let us never forget that we are brethren, and adjust all our differences as such.
Judging from the way some of the brethren discharge their Masonic duties it is feared that they are seriously affected with the Masonic hook worm. —Texas Freemason.
The Wages of a Fellow Craft
The wages of a Fellow Craft are to be learned. First he learns that he must learn it step by step, till he reaches the middle chamber of truth. There he learns that his work is naught if it has not been earned in consecration and trust in God. He learns that the means by which he enters this chamber of truth has been in accordance with the divine plan:—"Knock and it shall be opened unto you; ask, and ye shall receive."
In this chamber of truth he learns that he must be exact in dealing with his fellows—he must give to every one under him that which is right.
Here he learns that his wages have not been honestly earned if he has not used his best efforts to aid a worthy brother in need.
Here he learns that to aid a worthy brother is not merely giving of money for immediate use; but that he has sought the opportunity to reprove in love and kindness, and to say an encouraging word at the right time—words are often more beneficial than money or other material relief.
In this middle chamber of truth the Fellow Croft learns that he must not allow the law of self-hiness to prevent him from relieving a brother, because to do that he might claim that it would be an injury to him self or to his family.
But the great personal benefit, which he here learns, is that he is a part of a great company of brothers; that whether he is at home or in foreign lands, a brother is at hand, and that there is always an open door for him to enter and earn the wages of a Fellow Croft; that he cannot "lose his job" in any part of the civilized world. —Queenland Freemasonry.
A Man's View of God
If a man's view of God is low, it will effect his life. His life will sink to the level of his God. A man who wants to do evil wants a God who will countenance wickedness, so he makes a God full of his own petty spites and envies and loves and hatreds. The Greeks, you remember, made their gods to possess human passions, and even vices. Then they in turn copied the vices and virtues of their gods on Mount Olympus, having first created their gods out of their own vices.—Selected.
King Frederick of Denmark, whose sudden death in Hamburg, Germany, recently, shocked the whole world, and who was one of the most beloved of all European sovereigns, was Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Denmark. His son, now King Christian, was Deputy Grand Master and will succeed his father in the Craft as he has on the brone. The sympathy of the craft throughout the world will be extended to the new king in his sorrow, and the best wishes for his happy administration of Masonic affairs in the kingdom.
The Spiteful Black Ball
There is nothing meaner and more unjust than the spiteful black ball. It is a good rule in Masonry that preserves the secrecy of that ballot box. It is the right and privilege of every Mason to cast a black ball, and to do so secretly. But this right should be exercised in a Masonle way. It should only be used in the interest of Masonry and the lodge.
It frequently occurs that man has taken the first, or even the second degree, and is then prevented from advancing by the use of the black ball. If a man is unworthy to be a Master Mason, he is unworthy to be an Entered Apprentice of a Fellow Craft, and if a brother is really justified in using the black ball, he should have the courage to prefer charges and get rid of the unworthy Entered Apprentice or Fellow Craft.
Of course he cannot be made to do so,
but his Masonic manhood ought to induce him to pursue this course.
The black ball is a, good thing. In its place, and ought to be used unsparingly when required.
But the spiteful blackball is unnasonic and unmanly.

THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE
Lesson XIII.—Third Quarter, For Sept. 24, 1916.
Text of the Lesson, II Cor. iv, 1, to v, 4
(Quarterly Review)—Golden Text, II
Cor. iv, 18—Commentary Prepared
by Rev. D. M. Stearns.
LESSON L—Paul at Thessalonica and
Berea, Acts xvil, 1-15. Golden Text,
Acts v, 31. "Him did God exalt with
His right hand to be a prince and a
Saviour." May we so see these men
of God going from place to place
preaching Jesus Christ crucified, risen,
and coming again, that we shall decide
to do likewise at all costs, knowing
that everywhere some will believe,
though others believe not.
LESSON II.—The Thessalonian Christians, I Thess. i and iv. 13-18. Golden Text? I Thess. i, iv. 14, "Them that are fallen asleep in Jesus will God bring with Him." It is refreshing to note how these, people received the message, not as from men, but from God; how effectually it wrought in them and how they proclaimed it to others, seeking to please God and not men (l, 8; ii, 4).
LESSON III.—Paul at Athens, Acts xvil. 16-34. Golden Text, Acts xvil. 28, "In Him we live and move and have our being." In this gentle city, very religious, but wholly idolatrous, Paul preached Christ as the Creator of all things and the sustainer of natural life in all His creatures, but also as crucified and risen from the dead and the appointed Judge of all mankind.
LESSON IV.—Paul at Corinth, Acts xviii, 1-22 Golden Text, Acts xviii, 9. "Be not afraid, but speak and hold not thy peace." Working at his trade of tentmaking, along with Aquila and Priscilla, he continued at Corinth a year and six months teaching the word of God among them (xviii, 11). The opposition was great, but a night visit from the Lord Himself with the gracious message of verses 9, 10, was an unusual strength and encouragement.
LESSON V.-The word of the cross. 1 Cor. 1, 18, to ii. 2. Golden Text, Gal. vi, 14. "Far be it from me to glory save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ." Although Paul knew much of the wisdom, of this world, he renounced it all for Jesus Christ, who had become to him the power of God and the wisdom of God and who was made unto him and to all believers wisdom, righteousness, sanctification and redemption (I Cor. 1, 17, 18, 21, 24, 30).
LESSON VI.-The greatest thing in the world, I Cor. xiii. Golden Text, I Cor. xiii. 13. "Now abideth faith, hope, love, these three, and the greatest of these is love"-greater than the gift of tongues or understanding mysteries or the power to work miracles, for God is Love, but without faith it is impossible to please God.
LESSON VII.—The grace of giving, II Cor. ix. Golden Text, Acts xx, 35, "Remember the words of the Lord Jesus that He Himself said, "It is more blessed to give than to receive." Giving is easy when the love of Christ constrains us, because of His great grace and love to us, and when we remember that we have nothing that we have not received, that all things come from Him and we can only give Him His own which He has first given to us.
LESSON VIII.—The riot at Ephesus, Acts xix, 29-41. Golden Text, I Tim, vi, 10. "The love of money is a root of all kinds of evil." The record of the riot is the least important part of this chapter, but teaches what may happen when business is interfered with. Carrying the word of the Lord into all Asia and bringing the special gift of the spirit to believers, this is something worth while.
LESSON IX.—Journeying to Jerusalem, Acts xx, 16-27. Golden Text, Acts xx, 32, "I command you to God and to the word of His grace" The greater part of this chapter tells of Paul's farewell to the church at Ephesus through the elders who came to Miletus to meet him, with a mention of three months in Greece and seven days at Troas, on his way thither. He reminded the Ephesians that for three years he had taught the whole counsel of God (verses 27, 29).
LESSON X.—Paul's sorrows and comforts, II Cor. xl, 21-33. Golden Text, II Cor. xll, 9, "My grace is sufficient for thee, for my power is made perfect in meekness." I think that the record of his sufferings, as in xl, 23-28, cannot be equaled in the case of any other mere man. But he must have been sustained by the glory which he saw on the way to Damascus and while he was dead after his stoning at Lystra (xll, 1-5).
LESSON XI.—The arrest of Paul, Acts xxI, 27-40. Golden Text, Acts xxII, 15, "Thou shalt be a witness for Him unto all men of what thou hast seen and heard." The first half of this chapter tells of the remainder of his journey to Jerusalem and his welcome there, with some incidents by the way at Tyre and Caesarea. The last half tells of his failure to pacify law keeping Jews.
Lesson XII...A prisoner in the castle, Acts xxii, 17-20. Golden Text. Ps. xxii, 2. "He is my refuge and my fortress, my God in whom I trust." The story of Paul's conversion is the real topic of this lesson, and to me the central saying is, "I could not see for the glory of that light." The choice by God of such a man for such a great work and the manner of his call is one of the greatest marvels of the whole Bible story concerning any mere man.

Lesson I.—Fourth Quarter, For Oct. 1, 1916.
THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES.
Text of the Lesson, Acts xxiii, 14-24.
Memory Veres, 20, 21—Golden Text.
Jer. i, 19—Commentary Prepared by
Rev. D. M. Stevens.
The chief captain, who with his soldiers; had rescued Paul from the hands of the mob, gave up all thought of scourging him when he found that he had a Roman citizen to deal with, and one that was such by birth, for it had cost the captain a great sum to obtain his citizenship. Then he determined to bring him before the Jewish chief priests, and council that he might if possible learn the cause of all this uproar against this man (xxl, 27-30). Just a word, about our heavenly citizenship, and joint-heirship with Jesus Christ, which no amount of money or good works can purchase; but can only be obtained by birth, the new birth, born from above (Tit. 11, 4-7; Ps. xlix, 6, 7; Zeph. 1, 18; John 11, 3, 5, 7). When obtained, then whoever touches us touches Him—whose we are, and all the power of heaven is ready to deliver us if necessary.
Paul began his testimony before the Jewish council by an assertion that he had always lived in all good conscience before God. This led to a command from the high priest to smite him on the mouth, which brought from Paul some true scathing words, "God shall smite thee, thou whitted wall," for which he apologized when he knew that he was the high priest. He was certainly not God's high priest, except in name, like the nominal believers at Sardis, who had a name to live, but were dead (Rev. ill. 1; lesson verses 1:1).
When Paul, perceived that he had before him in the council both Pharisees and Sadducees he began a testimony which soon set them one against the other to such a degree, that again the captain had to rescue Paul from their hands by force, lest he should have been pulled in pieces by them (verses 6-10). The captain must have been sorely perplexed by this strangest Roman citizen he probably ever had on his hands, for this was the third riot from which he had rescued him.
It may be well to note; here, a simple distinction in doctrine between Sad-duces and Pharisees, the former believing in no resurrection nor angel nor spirit, while the latter are said to have believed both (verse 8), but when we recall what the Lord Jesus said of the Pharisees in Matt. xxiii, calling them hypocrites, serpents, generation of vipers, on the way to hell, there was no choice between their beliefs in the light of eternity. They were all in the same boat, in the same broad way to destruction. Oh, how they hated the truth of God even as they had hated Him who is the Truth, and conspired together to kill Him, which they finally accomplished (Acts 11, 22, 23; ill, 13-15; iv, 10; v, 29-32).
They so hated Paul and his testimony to Jesus and His resurrection and a full and free salivation without circumcision or any works of the law that over forty of them took an oath that they would neither eat nor drink till they had killed Paul (verses 12-14,21,30). We are sure that they did not succeed in killing him, and how long they fasted we do not know, but we remember some words which are still true. "He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh, the Lord shall have them in derision." "The Lord bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought. He maketh the devices of the people of none effect." "Take counsel together and it shall come to nought" (Pa. ii. 4; xxxill. 10; Isa. vii. 10).
Now we come to a young man story reminding us of Samuel and the boy whose loaves and fishes fed more than 5,000 and other young men stories in Scripture. We are also told just a little of Paul's family affairs and that he had a married sister seemingly living in Jerusalem, and this young man was her son. We might infer from Zech. 31, 4; Jer. 1, 6, 7; that both of these men were called to be the Lord's messengers as young men. Paul's sister's son was certainly the Lord's messenger on this occasion to save Paul from these murderers. The result was that Paul was started off to Caesarea by night with an escort of 200 soldiers, 200 spearmen and 70 horsemen and a letter to Felix, the governor, stating the facts as far as the chief captain was able. The letter also contained a word in Paul's favor to the effect that the chief captain knew nothing against him worthy of death or of bonds (verses 22-33). As in the previous chapter, the best word to me was verse 11, so it is also in this chapter where we have the record of another night visit of the Lord to Paul, with the message, "Be of good cheer, Paul, for as thou hast testified of me in Jerusalem so must thou bear witness also at Rome." This made him sure of reaching Rome in some way and in due time as the Lord's messenger. As to this word (tharsec) which is translated "Be of good cheer," or "Be of good comfort," our Lord used it on just five different occasions, and this is the last, the others being in Matt. 1x, 2, 22; xlv, 27; John xv1, 33. He is just the same Jesus in glory as when He was on earth. He will be just the same Jesus when He comes again in like manner as He ascended from Olivet. He who in the same discourse said, "In the world ye shall have tribulation; let not your heart be troubled," is able to do it in us.

A year of progressive work as well as increased attendance is confidently expected by the priests in charge. Kindergarten and eight grammar grades, besides plain sewing, embroidering, needlework, drawing and vocal music are included in the schools' work. As our schools are charitable institutions Catholic and non-catholic children are admitted. Religious instruction is imparted to all because we are convinced from long experience that an education will exclude religion is a failure and therefore in all Catholic schools the education of the soul goes hand in hand with the development of the mind. The religious convictions of the child are not interfered with, we only teach the great principles of Christianity and the beautiful stories of the holy Bible.
The, new St. Benedict's school, although not entirely completed, will be ready for the children to enroll. Monday morning 9 a.m. For further information concerning the schools, please apply to the priests of St. Benedict's rectory, 551 East Taylor street.

WHOLESALE AND RETAIL Fruit and Commission Merchant 303 ST. JULIAN WEST AND 23 JEFFERSON ST
This chapter gives us Paul's testimony before the high priest and the elders from Jerusalem, at Caesarea, in the presence of the governor Felx, and also some account of one of Paul's talks with Felx and his wife Drusilla. The persecutors from Jerusalem brought with them an orator who, with flattery for Felx, did a large amount of lying against Paul, which the Jews indorsed, saying that these things were so (verses 1-9). Paul denied their accusations and defied them to prove what they said and then stained the case truthfully (verses 10-13). His confession that he believed all things which are written in the law and in the prophets (verse 14) remind us that our Lord said that the two with whom He walked to Emmaus were foolish in not doing so, and that He expounded from Moses in the prophets and the psalms the truth concerning Himself, saying that it must be fulfilled (Luke xxiv, 25-27)

For, having heard both sides and seen through some things, decided that he matter be deferred until Lysias, be chief captain, could come and advise him' more fully. Meantime he created Paul well as a prisoner, gives him liberty and allowing his acquaintances to see him and minister to him (verses 22, 23). As we think of Philip and his household and all who heard the word in the home of Conellius, it is possible that Paul was made as comfortable as a prisoner cold be, and no doubt, he used ever opportunity to preach Christ crucified, risen and returning to set up His kingdom.

We may infer from verse 27 that the case was deferred for at least two years so that Paul must have had much res and many opportunities. We cannot tink as well of Felix as we would like to, for he was evidently an up to date grafter and a man pleaser, often sending for Paul to hear him talk, trembling a little sometimes under its searching words, but always hoping that Paul would offer him money to let him free, and keeping Paul a prisoner to please the Jews (verses 24-27). What we call graft, or, as in the Bible, taking bribes, is a very old story and was forbidden by the law of Moses. Samuel was free from it, but hot so his sons (Deut. xv1, 19; I Sam. vll. 3; xli. 3).

We must not confuse this with the saying of our Lord, as some do, that the Spirit will convince the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment (John xvl, 7, 8). Our first need as sinners is a righteousness which will enable us to appear unashamed before God, and this we cannot obtain by any good works of our own. Yet there are many going about seeking to establish their own righteousness, not knowing that in God's sight all is as silly rags, and apart from Jesus Christ there is none righteous—no, not one (Isa. lxiv, 6; Rom. iii, 10, 19-24; x, 3, 4; II Cor. v, 21). Temperance is the dental or control of self in every form that God may be glorified in our daily life, not in order to be saved, but because of the righteousness freely given to us in Christ. All shall in due time and in due order come to judgment either for sins or service.

EUREKAS PLAY RINGS
AROUND JACKSONVILLE
‘Take Three Games ont of Four
The Eurekas, this year’s champions
“of the Tocal Negro Social Club Base
hall league, played rings around the
Jacksonville, Fla., Giants in the series
of four games which ended Thursday.
The Floride boys were hopelessly out-
class by the speedy and well-conditioned
local boys and the games were a run-
away for the latter. Monday's game
attracted a large crowd ‘as the Giants
° were heraled as a erac-a-jack aggre.

see a fast same journeyed out to the’

Tuesday’s game proved a farce,
ending in a score of 22 to 9 in favor

|Sent the so-called “Bruce Machine#|)
the serap-pile. The decisive ac!
taken at the meeting Wednesday|(
looked upon as marking the “beginnt:
of the end of a dynasty that spell
disaster to the colored branch of th
local school system for a number
years.
Nothing was said at the opening ¢
the meeting about the proposed clang
in the office of Assistant Superinter
dent in charge of colored — school
Until the board has had an oppor
tunity to consider this matter apar
from routine work, it is understoa
that the present incumbent, Rosco:
fCankling Bruce will be permitted t
liold on, although praetichily shorn o
power, The functions that would us
ually fall to this office are said to hav
passed largely into the hands of Ed
ward LE. Thurston, superintendent ot
the schools, who ‘is making appoint
ments regardless of the wishes of the
Truce machine. In fact, there is an
impression that an applicant for a
position is handicapped bv a Bruec
endorsement. and some of the pro-
Bruceites have become “foxy, enough
to pretend to have the assistant super-
intendent’s opposition to aroid In-
jurine their chances of success. The
support of Mr. Bruce is regarded in
some quarters -as a liability, rather
than as an‘asset, and are proceeding
accordingly. 7

ber of the board of examiners, Mr.

otticer of the district Magns, a man
of character, noted for fair play.
Following the trend of sentiment
against the employment of day teach-
ers in the night schools, which has
beens peatedly touched upon in these
columns, no teacher from now on, can
serve in two places where the aggre-
gate salaries amount to $2,00 or more
ber annum. ~ Fair play toward the

Far and away the most siguificant
event of the meeting was the agree
‘ment that atposition of some kind
within the system be given to Dr. Wik
son Bruce Eyans, former principal of
the Armstrong Manual Training ‘schvol
and assistant director of night schools.
Dr. Evans was dismissed from these
positions by a forhher board of edu-
cation, but ameppeal to the courts re-
sulted in a finding that he had been
unjustly separated from the schuol
system. So, he is to de reinstated,
without prejudice ta the welfare of
these heulding places, and with the
uiderstanding that the restoration of
Th Dyans is to be considered iu the
Igtt of “censure” of a former board
for) dismissing him—of course not!
Sinle the board of education left open
jthe\principalship of the Cardozo Vo-

Eyal may be assigned to this position.
