Williams, United State: farm dethotistrator, will be presented A machine by his many rural admirers for the valuable services he has ren: ered them in their farm work. The idea originated at Millen where Mr ‘Williams has organized one of the best tarmers clubs in the state and where he is a warm favoftite with not only ‘the town people but all of the, farm- ers in and around that prosperous little “elty. The idea spread like wild fre avd already clubs in many of the counties where Mr. Willams’ work carries him have contributed largely to the pur. chase price of a brand new Ford tour. ing car. The car which will be pre sented ‘sometime during next month, will be used by Mr. Williams in his work on the farms throughout ‘the ;State. It will enable him to more ful- ly serve the hundreds of Negro farmers who have been greatly assisted by him during the past three or four years in conducting their farms on a scientific basis. * + Mr. Williams is greatly admired by the people in the rural districts among whom he works, not ouly because of the valuable information on the various crop subjects which he imparts to them, but because of his general in- terest in their welfare and his willing- ness to assist them in whatever man- ner he can, The value of Demonstra- tor Williams’ services is widely recog- nized not only by the struggling Ne ‘gro farmers but by many of the lead- ‘ing white farmers, many of whom have contributed to the fund which will be “used to purchase the automobile which swill be presented him. Mr_ Willlams who hails from Birmincham, Ala., and ‘hhas his headquarters at the Ga., State College, is a young man of excellent -character and much push and ability and is one of the most progressive Negro tarm demonstrators in the ser- vice of the government.

The opening address was given by Rev. Dr. James M. Bisler, formerly of New London, Conn., and now of At- Aanta ‘Theological Seminary. le spoke on the importance of aspiration, and ‘said that he was glad to look into the faces of such 2 hody of students with aspiration, He urged that with that quality nothing on earth could keep the people back. In illustration he spoke of Mr. Bush, one of the freatest Neco organist in the United States, who plays at New London on one of the greatest organs in the world. He told of the longings of Mr. Bush as a poor hoy and of his final triumph over difficnities in the way of a great musician, Dr, James Bond, pastor of Ruch Memorial church, offered prayer and spoke 2 few words of cordial greet- ing. It is most encouraging to see on every side evidences of progress and growth at the beginnidg of this year which marks the. fiftieth -anntyersary of the chartering of the institution? * ‘Mr. Harty Robinson, who has. been reaiding in Birmingham, Ala, for the past fire years, passed throuelt “tte eity Tuesday en route to Brunswick.

One of the young clubs of the cit¥ is discussing the feasibility of purchasing a lot on which to erect a summer home and it is more than lkely that the plan will go through and If It does it wHl be the mecca for many of the younger set during next summer. Mr. Bowen is discussing the plans for the new subdivision the other day sald to a representative of The Trib- une:“I expect to get everything ready for development of Hope Crest about the latter part of December. The out look for ready purchaser cf the one hundred and three lots is very bricht and already about twenty prospective buyers have been in to sce me.

A Bucket brigade, for example, showed how a simall groupe of clear headed, active men could pass water quickly and successfully to a burning building. The Hampton tradesmén who are taking the plumb- ing and steam fitting gpurse handled skillfully the steam engine. ‘The preliminary fire drill demon- ‘strated how Hampton is preparing to meet, day by day, its fire risk.

Everyone wants new clothes when autumn comes, and everyone scems to have new clothes. The long top coats and one-piece dresses which are worn under them, strikes one as being of most “import- ance this season, though tallored suits hot goyey . it pS : ~ ‘New Coats Haye Large High Collars are also well represented. The coats deok so warm and comfortable with their Jarge, high collars that button snugly to the neck, Many of the col- Jars are made of fur or fur cloth, which may be had in such ood imita- tions that only a very experienced eye could tell the difference. The ma- terials for coats this season are simply irresistible; so beautifud are they in the rich, warm collars and so wonder- fully soft in texture. Without being heavy or clumsy, they are waym enough for the cool weather: Among the very newest materials are Bolivia Goth, a rich fabric with a sheens and burella, a soft open weave somewhat like homespun but very much more attractive and finer in quality. Yn addition to these, there are the more well-known wool velours, wool plushes and wool velyets as well as many other fancy coatings. A pleasing note in the development of the new coats for fall is the use of bright-colored linings. A very handsome imported coat of na- vy blue serge had a bright. cerise ln- ing which showed when the fronts ice FARES) : / INE ct Las 1) yy 3 | | |} : fi YL Handsome One-Piece Dresses were rolled open. Glimpses of it were also seen in the lining of the collar and cuffs. Other charming com- Dinations that have been seen in the way of linings, are brown with light blue, and black with cerise. Like the coat Iv the Hlustration, a great many models show the straight closing down the front with gracefully curved lines at the sides, The back and sides are belted. Some models, however, ‘ure, on the contrary, very fnll at ‘the back and have no belt at all to contine the fullness which starts at the neck and increases as the sat lengthens. Fur collars are particular- jy good style this fall, Hudson seat beaver, kolinsky, fitch, skunk and rab- bit are the pelts most used. Yery often the cuffs are of matching fur, toa, but in many instances only the collar is of fur, Quilting a New Idea -\ very novel idea that has been brought from Paris is the quilted ef- fect on suits; and even waists have ‘been made in this style, The quilting is done by machine-stiteching in pretty desizns rather than in straight lines, and the effect is so different from any- thing else that it has been very much admired. Satin and silk suits are made with deep bands of quilting at the edges of both skirts und coats. Auvther way of using this quiltins idea is in touches on collar, pockets and cuffs. Some quitled waists have been further decorated with French knots in heavy yarn. Some of these waists are intended especially for sports. One-piece dresses are so very pop- ular that they are used for all oc castons atid developed’ in widely varied materials to suit the different occa- sions, A dress for shopping and the practical issues of life is the one Shown here, developed in serge and trimmed with rows of braid in dif- ferent widths. It buttons trimly down the front from collar to em. One-Piece Dress of Serge From Paquin comes an exquisite one piece dress of brown Georgette: crepe to be slipped on over the head. It is trimmed with dull gold embroidery. The skirt-is quite long and weighty with 2a deep band of beaver fur. 4A high beaver collar and deep cuts of the same finish the neck and sleeves while the front has a soft velvet vest amd a touch of the sme velvet ap: pears on the Tose girdle of Georzette which is arranged belaw the normal waistline. Another charming one-piece frock was of light blue chiffon velvet with skirt gathered to a long hody. Narrow gold braid trimmed the body. nial the shirt had two wide stripes of sold braid hanging at either side over the hips. - OPENING OF FORT VALLEY If. & I.

Quarreling and abusing members of the race for not supporting ode bust ness or enterprise, is one of the poor- est) pastime that a Negro business mat can engage in, Instead of say- Ing cutting things to these who have not been trained in giving support and encouragement ta members of the race engaged in Injsiness, the ones among ns engaged fr business, should try another scheme and see how we will come out. Dor example, suppose we try to Ining them to us by adopt- ing some of the methots and plans which the other fellow is working so successfully, which methods and plans keep him busily engaged waitin on costohers, while we have plenty of time to stand 2round and quarrel be- cause we haven't the ability and fore thought to adept plans which will build up our business, instead of tear- ing it down, ; It is true, that every man in busi- bess, who has made up his mind to succeed in spite of any “and all ope! exition, has also made it up in his' nind that he was going to put his personality into his business, with an eye single to stamping his individuality upon that business in a way that the business which he founded ors now heading, would be almost, if not en- ftirely inseparable froim himeelf, We fear that we have not made this state- ment as plain as we desire that it ‘should be made. Therefore, permit us to try to iNustrate what we are try- ing to say in this connection, by giv- Ing one or two living examples which, in my opinion, any race would feel just- iy proud of, namely: the wark of the sreatest of all Negro business men in Georgia, A. F. Herndon. This modest Negro business man who began his career insthe little vil- age of Jonesboro, in Clayton county, 'Ga., soon discovered himself and made Hit up in his mind that the Negro race was just as much entitled to the finest barbershop in the eivilized world as any other race of people under the cans ony. of heaven, ‘Therefore, Mr, Hern- don began to plan aid work his plans to this end: and just how well he has raincoat in carrying into execution Is well thought out plans, al one will have to do is to go to the city of Atlanta, or any where else in the country as to that matter, where peo- ple read or travel, and call the name of A. F. Herndon, and the people will think of the finest barber shop in the world. Then on the other hand, «peak of the finest barbershop in the world and the people will think of A. F. Terndon. # What is true in this respect, regard- ing a man stamping his individuality upon the business which he hay been able to build up through well-matured plans, heart aches and hard work, this man, A. F. Herndon, as a bnsinoss factor in the race and one who not only avas ambitious to stamp his in- diyiduality upon the enterprises which he has succeeded in building up for the race, but his work shows that he had in mind at all times, the idea of heing able to furnish johs for the worthy young men and women of the] Herndon, keeping in mind just what an institution like the Atlanta Mu- tual Insurance Association means to a child race like ours, of which he is @ part; and what it means in the mat- ter of furnishing employment to the young men and women of the race, is his onl¥ apology for putting into it the time and money which he has put into this institution in the last ten or dozen years, to make of it what he has in mind it should be. The Negro Business League in its weekly letter, never tires of placing ‘before the youth of the land with ambition and aspiration, business men of the race who have “done the thing” and are not afraid to tell us how it happened. We take pleasure in so doing, that the young men of the race with ambition may go and do Ukewise.

Among The Masons If you were asked to guess what was the one civilized country on the globe that prohibits Masonry you would no doubt guess Russia, and you would be correct. If there are Masons in Russia they must meet in secret and keep their membership secret, as do the Nihillists. It is just this spirit that has given the unhappy country the name of "Darkest Russia." Russia was not always so benighted. As early as 1750 John Eugene Schwartz did great service for the country in his place as teacher of philosophy at the University of Moscow. He taught that knowledge had no meaning if it applied only to atheism and immorality; and to assist him in this work he founded learned societies. He was really the father of Russian Masonry, and he was followed by Novikoff, who belonged to a St. Petersburg Masonic lodge. Alexander the First issued an order suppressing "all secret societies to which Masons belong" in 1822, since which time there has been no freemasonry in Russia. However, Russia is showing signs of awakening. There are stirrings of Democracy, and a movement toward constitutional government. It would not be at all surprising if by 1922, after a hiatus of a century, Masonry should again be admitted to the land of the Czar. Wherever it is, it will again prove itself an agent of the development, and constituted authority need have no fear that its influence will be harmful. ★ ★ ★ Many country and district conventions will be held in Georgia in the next few months. Masonry will be greatly benefited by the coming together of the brethren. Uphold the Master in all his laudable undertakings. Give him your cordial support in all that tends to build up the lodge. Attend your lodge meetings regularly. Your presence will help the lodge, and you also will be helped. The strength of the Masonic tie was well illustrated recently by an event in Mexico. Bro. Zack T. Farmer, a locomotive engineer, was killed near Irapuato in a wreck caused by the burning of a bridge by the rebels. A brother Mason took charge of the body and accompanied it to his former home in El Paso for decent Masonic burial.—Texas Freemason. Mason Sentence Mason to Death Jude Bucknill, who is a prominent Free Mason, had the painful duty. Thursday of sentencing to death a brother Mason, Frederick Henry Seddon, 40 years old, an insurance superintendent, who, after nine days trial in London, was found guilty of murdering Eliza Ann Barrow, an elderly spinster. Seddon's wife was also accused of the crime, but was acquitted. Miss Barrow lodged with the Seddons and the prosecution charged that they poisoned her with arsenic extracted from flypaper in order to obtain her money. Seddon, in a speech of twenty minutes; vehemently proclaimed his incence, declaring "before the Great Architect of the universe I am not guilty." As Seddon made his appeal to the "Great Architect" he raised his hand, pointed aloft and gave a Masonic sign. The prisoner's declaration profoundly affected Judge Bucknill, who wept in passing sentence. Alluding to Seddon's suggestion of Freemasonry, he observed. "From what you have said I know we both belong to one brotherhood. It is all the more painful to me to say what I am saying, but our brotherhood does not encourage crime. On the contrary, it condemns it. I pray you make your peace with the 'Great Architect of the Universe.' Seek mercy, pray for it, ask for it." --- You can pretty well judge what kind of a Mason a man is, by ascertaining the opinion that the members of his family have of the Masonic order. Texas Freemason. --- On Getting Acquainted The spirit of the lodge can be judged more quickly and more surely by the ways. strangers are received by the brethren than almost any other means. We recently visited two lodges in the same city on the same day. In one the prefunctory welcome was given from the east, but not a single member made an effort to make his lodge a home for the stranger. In the other lodge at the first opportunity we were made acquainted with every member present, and immediately felt as much a part of the body as in our own lodge. No doubt every Mason who travels has had the same experiences. The spirit of the lodge is hard to define, but it is as real and as material as if it could be felt or seen. The welcoming smile and hearty handclasp are the visible tokens of the spirit of brotherhood. Under their genial influences the most conservative training will thaw and expand to the proportions of fraternity. When a stranger is in your midst, get acquainted.—Masonic News. in Masonry a moral and mental stimulus simply through association. When they find themselves in a lodge composed of intellectual, right-minded men they are selzed with a desire to emulate them and to become of their kind, and thus they acquire an individual growth which is of inestimable value." We are glad to see that several of our presiding officers are devoting evenings to the development of the social features. We believe this to be a step in the right direction.—Missouri Freemason. --- · Masonic Duty Freemasonry stands for great principles, all of which are embodied in the short expression, "The Brotherhood of Man under the Fatherhood of God"; and we are a great power in proportion as we are true to these principles. Great problems face us and great opportunities are before us. We live in days when the development of society and the progress of civilization presents to us great questions; and in this nation we are favored with conditions that should stimulate us for all the work that may devolve upon us. What are we doing for social conditions on our part as members of the Craft? Do we act as a great organization of men bound together by solemn ties, standing for the good of society and the welfare of the nation? What is our duty as Masons? Do we stand distinctly for the good, the beautiful and the true? Just think what it would mean if our members throughout this broad land of ours should stand together for truth and righteousness; what a power we would be for good, if thus united. To talk about what the world would be is simply to indulge in empty sentiments; to show our manhood is our duty. This we can accomplish only by exemplifying in our lives what we rehearse and express as we come together in our fraternal meetings. Many of us are deceived by the false notion that we can profess certain things, observe certain forms and ceremonies, and maintain certain princi- Ladies!

There is hypocrisy in Masonry today. With a spirit of heroism worthy of our heritage and a devotion to the truth consistent with our teachings, let us stand nobly for the right as God has given us to see it.—Virginia Masonie Journal. The Masonic Charity is one which makes a Mason act in reference to the things of life on the old saging that in things essential let there be liberty, and in all things let there be charity, and charity is another name for love, and "God is love." It is one which dominates the man with the thought of the vastness of the love of the author of all charity, so well put in the following stanza: Could we with ink the ocean fill. Were the whole sky of parchment made, And every man a scribe by trade, Were every talk on earth a quill, To tell the love of Got to man Would drain the ocean dry; Nor could the scroll contain the whole Though stretched from sky to sky. Many persons are asking "What is the great secret of Freemasonry?" To all we will say that this great secret is not so well kept as they may suppose. It is known to afflicted Masons, their widows and orphans in all parts of the world. It is written in golden characters over the doorways of orphan asylums and homes for indigent Masons. It will be found written in the Great Light of Masonry. Look for it in Matthew XXV-35th verse. It has been demonstrated repeatedly that the Mason who is too good to be gin at the bottom of the ladder is not good enough to reach the top—Masonic Standard. --- Those Masons upon whom Masonry has conferred distinction and honor and whom she has taught to serve, owe her a debt of gratitude, which should be generously acknowledged by a loyal and loving service, even after leaving a position which they, by her permission, were chosen to fill.—Masonic Home Journal. ```markdown ``` JOE F.

Sworn to and subscribed before me this second day of October, 1916 Notary Public C. C.. Ga. My commission expires Aug. 26th, 1918 Gretifying it is indeed to note the increased interest that some of the men of certain of our city churches are taking in church and community work. This spirit should extend to every church, regardless of denomination, and each should have a strong men's organization. This is one form of christian progress and the men of all churches should catch hold of the spirit. Every, community with a set of broad-minded unselfish men who are leading, will be progressive. Men who are forever fermenting strife and carrying grouches should be frowned upon. A poll of St. Louis taken by the Republican city committee indicates that Hughes will carry the town by forty thousand. St. Louis is evidently looking for the G. O. P. blue ribbon. The juggling of the national guard still continues and will doubtless continue until after election. A regiment is withdrawn, a regiment ordered to the border. The troops are paraded, the troops are sent on a hike. All this is faithfully emblazoned to the country by Democratic press-agents and the wearisome farce of pretending that the soldiers are down there to "defend their country" is kept up. When the curtain will be rung down no one knows. But the signal for the final act will be given on election day with the repudiation of the first president who ever attempted to play politics with our foreign relations and with our national defence. In the first 90 days of the present fiscal year the Wilson administration accumulated a deficit of $49,500,000. they spent $55,000 a day more than they collected in revenue. Still they defend their tariff law which cut off revenue at the custom house, and they deny that they are extravagant. The public is responding vociferously to Hughes's attacks upon the Adamson law; and they place the accent on the second syllable of the name. "I warmly congratulate you and predict a decisive victory in November." Thus Mr. Wilson telegraphed to the Democratic nominee for governor in New York. His predictions will be verified. The victory in November will be emphatically "decisive" of Republican triumph. --- The Republican party stands for stability and a National viewpoint. It stands for legislation and administrative efficiency.' It stands for a foreign policy that looks ahead, not backward; which anticipates possible disaster by superior diplomacy and is not therefore forced to temporize in a crisis. Its criterion of government is justified by an unsullied record of more than half a century. The Democratic party has imposed extra taxen on the people amounting to $600,000,000 per annum. They have created more than 35,000 new offices, involving a permanent burden on the tax payers of $40,000,000 per annum. The paper trust has gradually raised the price of paper so that many of the smaller newspapers may have to go out of business. The settlers who furnish the pulp wood have been paid the same old price but the manufacturer has doubled the selling price. It is true that colored people of this city and county do not pay as much tax as our white friends, but they are largely the cause that enable these white friends to pay such a large amount of tax. This being true, there should not be withheld from them any civic appropriations that will be beneficial. In the matter of school facilities, ample accommodation should be accorded, and in this we are sure that we have a superintendent and members of the Board of Education, who are in sympathy with our needs. In the matter of play grounds and other civic betterments, appropriations should be given the colored people. Other than fire and police protection, the only other benefits that the colored people receive are the employment in a few of the departments. Giving us play grounds, making liberal donations for our library, grading the streets, laying sidewalks in neglected neighborhoods and improving our cemetery, are a few of the acts that would be of great benefit to the colored citizens. The Tuskegee Farmer and Messenger gives the following interesting article of the accomplishment of a woman at Pansey, Ala.; who owns 1.0 acres of land. Besides having a yard full of chickens and selling every vegetable out of her garden, she has sold—70 bushels of corn, at 75 cents per bushel; 135 pounds of meat, at 10 cents per pound; 1,700 pounds of fodder, at $1.00 per hundred; 1 1-2 barrel of syrup, at 50 cents; 17 bushels of apples, at $3; 3 tons of hay, at $16.00; 6 bales of cotton-seed, at $33.00 per ton. What this enterprising woman has done, should be an incentive to other farmers, who have not been able to do as well. Teachers in the schools of this county have an excellent opportunity to be of untold good to the respective communities where they are teaching. These teachers should become interested in the needs of these communities and join with their patrons in bettering the same. Improvement of the school building, beautifying its surroundings, increased facilities and uplift work among the patrons are among the beneficial objects that can be easily taken up. The county teachers should meet some time and discuss these things. A correspondent in the New York Sun clearly shows up Mr. McCormick, the Democratic National Chairman. This proves Mr. Hughes election: "It is highly amusing to see the assertions of Chairman Vance McCormick and of your neighbor, the "World". that Mr. Wilson is sure to be elected. "Let us analyze the vote and try to see on what ground Vance McCormick bases his assertion that Mr. Wilson was slightly over 100,000 votes behind the Bryan vote of 1908, 6,300,000 for Wilson and 6,400,000 for Bryan. Now it is admitted that Wilson received many votes cast by Republicans anxious to defeat Roosevelt who voted for him in preference to Taft as the more likely one to win; says these numbered 600,000 It is also admitted that about 20 per cent. of the Progressive vote, 4,100,000, was cast by Democrats; say, 800,000. All the Taft votes were straight out old line Republicans. "Wilson received 6,300,000; deduct as Republiccnn 600,000 and we have 5,700,000 straight out Dem- ocrats. Add to these the 800,000 Progressive Democrats and, we find 6,500,000 who voted for Wilson. "Rosevelt received 4,100,000; deduct as Democratic 800,000 and we have 3,300,000. Progressive Republicans. To this add 3,500,000 Taft votes, and we get 6,800,000 for Hughes. This leaves a majority of 300,000 for Hughes. Of the new votes probably 60 per cent. will vote for Hughes and 40 per cent for Wilson. This takes no account of the so-called German-American and Irish American vote opposed to Wilson, which is an unknown quantity, to say nothing of the thousands who are disgusted with his knuckling to the labor leaders, the fruits of which we see in the present car strike in this city." Regardless of the fact that the double session program which will be inaugurated in the Negro public schools of the city Monday will, in a measure, work a hardship on the teachers selected to fill the two sessions a day, yet, in view of the fact that by this system all of the Negro children in the city desiring seats in the schools will be accommodated, we are very much pleased with the plan. It will be the first time that adequate accommodation in the schools has been provided our children and we feel that we owe Superintendent Gibson a deep debt of gratitude for bringing about this improvement in our educational system, which means so very much to our children. The lack of provision for the educational training of our children has been an eye sore to us for years. We have longingly and anxiously awaited the day when every one of our children would be accorded an opportunity to get public education, and now that this cherished hope is filled we should feel jubilant. This new arrangement, though temporary, whereby all children of the city, both white and colored, will secure that public training which every commonwealth should provide, records a new era in our city, one which will be received with much gratification by all fair minded citizens. The new arrangement is the only present solution of the crowded condition of our schools and the only way to take care of the seven hundred odd children who sought admission to the schools last week but were turned away for lack of accommodation. The new plan relieves for the present the over-crowded condition of our schools and shows a willingness on the part of the Board of Education to provide adequate accommodation for our children. INTERESTING NEWS FROM THE NATIONS' CAPITOL Washington, D. C., Oct. 13—The citizens of Washington are gathering in a solid pinning this week around Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, founder and president of the National Training School for Women and Girls, Lincoln Heights, D. C., and on Friday night will unite in tendering her a monster testimonial in recognition of her splendid services for the race at large and for Afro-American womanhood in particular. A citizens' committee, numbering more than one hundred, are patrons of the affair, and the membership embraces representatives of every church, school, fraternity and social units in the District. Mrs. Charles Cabaniss is chairman of the committee and Miss Emma B. Hall is secretary. Speakers have been selected for the occasion. The choral organization of the school will render an appropriate musical program. At the conclusion of the speeches by the invited persons, Miss Burroughs will talk of the work of her great school, testify to her appreciation of the national support she is receiving at the hands of the people worth while, and outline in brief her plans for the future. Word has been received by the secretary of the local citizens' committee in charge of the Booker T. Washington Memorial Fund that Dr. Robert Russa Moton, principal and Mr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary of Tuskegee Institute, will be here shortly to speak in the interest of the $250,000 memorial fund that is being raised by the colored people of the country for the perpetuation of the institution founded by the late. Dr. Washington. These distinguished gentlemen are coming in response to an urgent invitation, extended several months ago. A big reception is planned for them to be given at the Metropolitan A. M. E. church. Due announcement will be made of the date. The eastern itinerary of Dr. Moton and Mr. Scott will cover three cities at least, Washington, Baltimore and Philadelphia. In each of these centers respect for the late educator is strong. "The Family Cupboard." expounding in tense dramatic form the old aphorism that "a mouse divided against THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE itself cannot stand," and exposing the secret skeleton hidden in the average household, is the attraction at the Howard this week. The trials of husband and wife and their son and daughter, growing out of the mixing-in of the 'eternal triangle," are worked out in an interesting fashion, with dialogue filled with bright epigrams and situations that combine tragedy and comedy in illuminating proportions. The ending is as happy as the most optimistic could desire. The preservation of the home as the goal of human happiness is the moral forcibly impressed. Mrs. Charles H. Anderson as the chorus girl, "Kitty" the cause of it all, has the liveliest role of her career, and the part calls for a modern dance, which she executes with a grace that fully met the great expectations of those who have heard of her as the rage of New York as a terpsichorean artist, but had not seen her in action. Sidney Kirkpatrick was seen at his best as "Charlie Nelson", the tempered husband, and Miss Mattie Wilkes won new laurels as "Mrs. Nelson," the society loving wife, who through suffering is led to see the error of neglecting the provider of the home. The character was a strong one and Miss Wilkes was particularly effective in the trying scenes where the love of wife and mother tore at her heartstrings and awoke the society queen to a realization of her duty to her family. Miss Cleo Desmon got the largest "hand" on the opening night, and bore her honors modestly. As "Mrs. Harding" she was happily cast and made the most of a part that called for society grace, fine wit and an appreciation of her family name. Mrs. Mae Olden, who won her spurs in the original Lincoln Stock, is a new commer and did admirably in the dual roles of "Alice Harding" society but and "Miss Ryan," the touch telephone operator. Mrs. Orma Crosby Bouquet as "Alice Nelson," the loyal daughter, was vivacious and struck a popular chord by her liberal attitude toward an erring father. The play has drawn fine crowds all the week. The piece was staged by Edgar Forrest, and the (Continued on Page Seven) Mrs. Mary Williams, wife of Rev. M. S.

"The Smart Set" played to big business all last week at the Howard and left early Sunday morning for Norfolk and Newport News. Va., to open a long campaign of the South. They are traveling in their own Pullman, which has been painted a brilliant red. The crowd is a congenial one and is literally one united family. Salem Tutt Whitney is an "easy boss" but an effective one. Edward Tolliver and Goldie Chappelle, a talented sketch team, is at the Blue Mouse in a new Hawaiian act, and will be at Dudley's next week, with a goodly bunch of southern time to follow. This is one of the neatest teams in the business and the duo is always a strong drawing card. Joe Simms and a company of fifteen are putting on a midnight show at the Howard Friday night, beginning at 12 o'clock.

She has appeared with marked success at Mother Zion and St. Mark's churches and at numerous places in Brooklyn, Jersey City, Yonkers and New York. --- A wildent rumor was circulated here lest week that Sidney Kirkpatrick had gotten married" in New York City. The report was run down by our luxe-eyed scribe and discovered to be a "cruel hoax" designed to create food for goosep. The principals in the farce comedy are "heart-whole and fancy free" as far as can be determined. Meier is a fixture here as resident manager of the Quality Amusement Company. Louis Sussman has come over from New York and Baltimore to assist him. * * * Mr. Charles E. Hall and Rev. William Jenifer, statistical experts in the census bureau, have been detailed by the Department of Commerce to investigate the migration of Negro labor from the South to the industrial districts of the North. The cause underlying the movement, the number affected, the wages paid in the new environment, working conditions, and economic influences on both sections are some of the points to be examined by these special agents. Messrs. Hall and Jenifer left Monday for Philadelphia to begin the investigations. They will cover a wide area of territory and will uncover some hitherto untouched facts concerning labor conditions in their relation to the colored man. --- "The Lure" is scheduled for the Howard week of October 16, with "The Conspiracy" to follow on the 23rd. Director Winn is to introduce in the play six of the telling songs of the operatic version, including the "Jewel song" the "flower song" and others. This is the first time such a combination has been attempted on any stage by artists of any race. Sidney Kirkpatrick is to essay the role of "Mephisto;" Miss Laura Bowman is to be "Dane Martha;" and Miss Abbie Mitchell is to appear as "Marguerite." * * * Messrs. A. C. Winn and Edgar Forrest are "whangs" as stage directors and are working wonders, with the colored artists. The colored artists are agreeably surprising everybody by the sturdy manner in which they are sticking to the work. The colored men and women realize that they are at the threshold of a new and brilliant era in the dramatic world and they are determined to make good. Their failure at the crisis would be a race failure in the higher realms of art. The Race Congress which was held here last week at John Wesley A.M.E. Church, under call of Rev. Byron Gunner, was a success. About 100 delegates representing 25 states were present. An address to the country denouncing discrimination of every form on account of color and asking that lynching be made a federal crime, was adopted. Mrs. Ida Wells-Barnett was tendered a reception Wednesday evening by Mrs. M. W. Clair at the home of the latter. Mr. William Warley, editor and owner of the Louisville News, was a delegate to the Citizens' Equal Rights Congress last week. He was shown many courtesies by the local penpushers and saw many of the sights of the capitol. --- Dr. Jasper Tappan Phillips, of Nashville, Teen, medical expert, journalist, scholar, author and poet of renown, spent a day or so in the city last week, en route to New York and other points. Dr. Phillips is noted for his zealous and productive labors for the civic uplift of his people in Nashville, and is a brilliant example of the possibilities of the Negro youth of ambition. Mr. James A. Cobb, former special assistant United States District Attorney, has been appointed as a member of the faculty of the Howard University Law School, to succeed the late A. A. Birney. Bishop Alexander Walters passed through the city Sunday, en route to North Carolina to fill a conference engagement. Though not entirely recovered from his recent illness, the eminent prelate is greatly improved. The others of the N. A. A. C. P. presents the report that the organization as such is interfering in the local school fight. They deny that the association has sent any delegation to the board of education to protest against the alleged n-urpation by Supt. Thurston of the "rights" claimed by Assistant Supt. Bruce. The citizens generally are satisfied, for the present, to be represented and protected by the judgment of Supt. Thurston in the matter of promotion, etc. The effort to hold up the salary of Miss Josephine Wormley, the new assistant of music, was not a success. The talented little lady drew down her check as usual. THE YOUNG MAN'S PROGRAM I, a man, being of sound health and disposing mind, and of the age of twenty-one, hereby set down these things that I have resolved: I will profit by the experiences of others, and not wait to learn them by my own experience. I will study the older men I meet and find out from them what is profitable and what is bad. I will not insist on the expensive and often fatal method of trying out everything on myself. I will be teachable. From every human being I encounter I will learn something. I will avoid egotism, boasting, speaking of myself and all other forms of vanity, as disgusting to my friends and weakening to my own personality. I will decide by my intellect what my tastes ought to be, and make myself like the right thing. I will put away the weakling's argument that "I can't hold my likes and dislikes." I will find out what kind of food is good for my health and learn to like that. I will put no stimulant of any kind into my body; no alcohol, tea, coffee, nor meat. I will learn how to be genial and convivial without artificial and poisonous foods, drinks, or drugs. I will keep clear, in body, drinks, or drugs. I will investigate the sex question and find out the facts and law of it and then settle it by my intelligence once for all, so that I will not be led into folly by an unreasoning desire, but shall keep the desire under my will, strong and helpful, to minister to my welfare and to the well-being of those that love me. I will not accept as a sati-factory standard what the majority of people are and do; but will decide for myself what is right and normal, and stick to that. I will allow no person or institution to coerce my opinion; my judgment shall remain uninterrified, unbribed, uneducated. In this I will not be truculent and offensive, but modest and open to conviction. I will not declare my belief in anything, religious, social or scientific, that I do not clearly understand. I will learn to do some one kind of work erpetly, and make my living by that. I will accept no inheritance, gift, loan, bribe, graft, or other unearned money or goods. I will take from the world only the fair equivalent of what I give it. I will never take revenge, will harbor no grudges and utterly eliminate any spirit of retaliation. Life is too short for the destruction; all my efforts shall be constructive. I will never engage in any business or sport that implies fraud, cruelty, or injustice to any living being. I will hurt no child, punish no man, wrong no woman. In everything I do I shall strive to add a little to the sum of happiness and subtract a little from the sum of misery of all living creatures. I will never indulge in self-pity, nor will I speak disparagingly of myself. I will talk of myself as little as possible. I will constantly try to make myself agreeable to all persons with whom I come in contact. I will co-operate with others in organizations for service, but will belong to no organization that involves uniformity of opinion. I know death is as natural as birth, that I am to die, and that no man knows his hour. I will not fret at this, nor dodge it, but so live that I am ready to go each day. I will believe that honesty is better than crookedness, kindness is better than cruelty, truth is better than lies, cleanliness is better that dirt, loyalty is better than treachery, and love is better than hate or coldness; and I will trust my life and my career to an unfailing reliance upon this creed—Selected. RACE SEGRATION STRONGLY DENOUNCED (Continued fro page one) by the Amphion Glee Club, Prof. Layton, Leader. The Congress merged into the 9th annual meeting of the National Equal Rights League on Friday with Rev. Byron Gunner in the chair, the morning session was opened with prayer by Bishop G. L. Blackwell of Pennsylvania; 100 delegates were enrolled from 26 states. Rev. J. E. Churchman was made recording secretary pro tem and J. L. Neill, D. C., with S. T. Morris, Massachusetts, and Mrs. R. Goggins, Michigan, were credentials committee. Bishop Alex. Walters enrolled. Committees were appointed on Declaration of Principles, Dr. W. A. Sinclair, Pennsylvania, chairman; on racial organization through the leadage, J. E. Churchman, New Jersey; on segregation, Wm. Warley, Kentucky, chairman; on disfranchisement, Rev. A. C. Randall, Maryland, chairman; on frueiling, Mrs. I. B. W. Barnett, Dinois, chairman; on nomination of officers, Rev. O. E. Denniston, Massachusetts, chairman; on industrial movements, Rev. W. S. Gay, Connecticut, chairman. After remarks by Maj. W. J. Furlong, Massachusetts, Mrs. Mary James, Massachusetts, and Levine J. Spencer, Delaware, adjournment was had till afternoon. In the afternoon these committees brought in strong reports which were adopted. Reduction of representation in Congress, a law by Congress making lynching a federal crime, a committee to wait upon Congress, drastic opposition to all sorts of race segregation in institutions as well as in public carries and domiciles and organizations of the race by colored leaders were among the measures favored. A strong address to the country was adopted scoring Wilson for his race segregation and favoring Hughes as the means by which to put Wilson out. The address contained the following: Owing to the alarming spread of Jim Crowism we declare an opposition to the whole policy of race segregation in public and semi-public institutions, in places open to the public as undemocratic and un-American, a denial of equality of rights and destined to make us social and civil outcasts. The night mass meeting was like the others, honored by a very large audience. M. W. Spencer opened. Prayer was by Rev. O. B. Dennison of Massachusetts. Addresses were by Rev. B. Gunner, presiding officer. Mrs. Ida B. Wells-Barnett, Bishop L. N. Ross, J. P. Peaker, Connecticut; Prof. Allen W. Whaley, Massachusetts and Wm. Monroe Trotter, Massachusetts.

Lesson III.—Fourth Quarter, For Oct.15,1916. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson, Acts xxv, 1-12 Memory Verses, 10, 11—Golden Text, Matt. x, 25—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. The successor to Felix, Porclus Festus, seems to have been in some respects like minded to Felix, for he, too, was willing to do the Jews a pleasure (xxiv, 27; xxv, 12), and he would have sent Paul back to Jerusalem had he been willing to go. This was what the Jews desired, that they might lay in wait for him by the way and kill him (xxv, 3). Their hatred of Paul does not seem to have decreased in the least during two years, for they were still full of grievous complaints against him which they could not prove (verses 2, 7). He was having wondrous fellowship with the Lord Jesus, for whose he was suffering and of whom it was written. "False witnesses did rise up; they laid to my charge things that I knew not." "Reproach hath broken my heart, and I am full of heaviness" (Ps. xxxv, 11; 1xix, 20). When we consider such words as these, "Thou shalt be bid from the scourge of the tongue," "Thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues," "There shall no evil befall thee," "No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper" (Job v, 21; Ps. xxxl, 20; xci, 10; Isa. lir, 17) and other similar assurances we are tempted to wonder a little, but then we remember that Paul was told that he must suffer great things for Christ's sake, and he taught others that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God and that all who will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. And our Lord said to His disciples that in the world we would have tribulation, and after He ascended He said to one of the churches that the devil would cast some of them into prison, but they were to continue faithful even if they died for it, and some who had been killed were told to rest awhile till others should be killed as they were (Acts ix, 10; xiv, 22; II Tim, iii, 12; John xvI, 33; Rev. ii, 10; vl, 11). He certainly loves His own and will to the uttermost, yet He allowed the disciples to toil nearly all night against a contrary wind, and He allowed Lazarus to continue sick and die and be buried that God might be glorified. We must bear in mind that just because we are His we have the world, the flesh and the devil to contend with, but He will not suffer us to be tried above that we are able, and all our trials and afflictions are working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory (I Cor. x, 13; II Cor. iv, 15-18). When from the kingdom and the glory we look back over our life story and consider all the way by which He has led us we may perhaps see a reason for everything He has done or permitted. But we shall surely say right was the pathway leading to this. It therefore becomes us during this little while to say, "As for God, His way is perfect;" "Just and true are Thy ways, Thou King of nations" (Ps. xvill, 30; Rev. xv, iii). If only we could have no will of our own and test wholly and fully in the perfect will and love of God we would have a foretaste of heaven in spite of all our trials here. When Paul refused to return to Jerusalem and appealed to Caesar that decided matters for the present, and Festus said, "Unto Caesar shalt thou go" (verses 9-12). It may be that the Lord's night message to him, "So must thou bear witness also at Rome" (xxill, 11), helped him to decide to appeal to Caesar, for Caesar meant Rome, and this may have seemed to him his opportunity. King Agrippa and Bernice having come to Caesarea to salute Festus, the whole matter was laid before them, and Agrippa expressed a desire to hear Paul for himself, and that will be our lesson for next week. Thus was being fulfilled the Lord's message to Ananias concerning Paul. "He is a chosen vessel unto me to bear my name before the gentiles and kings and the children of Israel (lx, 15). As Festus rehearsed the matter to Agrippa, he said that the whole matter seemed to be a question of Jewish superstition, and specially concerning one Jesus, who was dead, but whom Paul affirmed to be alive (verse 19). Does not that seem to describe the knowledge that many so called enlightened people have of Hini even now? Many are like Gallio and care for none of these things (xvii, 14:17), while many more, even among churchgoers, who take some part in the public worship outwardly, know nothing of Him as a personal Saviour and friend. It is written of such in Isa. xxix, 13, "This people draw near me with their mouth and with their lips do honor me, but have removed their heart far from me." Also in Ezek. xxxill, 21, "They hear thy words, but they will not do them, for with their mouth they shew much love, but their heart goeth after their covetousness." In Matt. xv, 8, 9, our Lord quoted the words from Isaiah concerning the hypocrites of His day. Can you not hear our Lord saying to you, "What think ye of Jesus? Whom do ye say that I am?" Does your heart reply, "O Lord, thou art to me my own Saviour, who didst bear my sins on the cross and hast redeemed me by Thy precious blood, that I might live for Thee, and after I have suffered awhile share Thy kingdom and glory."

OLIVER, Manager In loving remembrance of my dear husband and father, Isalah Dozier, who departed this life October 10, 1914. Gone! Is it possible? Dear husband and loving father? Charming, his affliction with patience to fly higher. Bearing the battles of this tedious life, Yes, he is gone to heaven which is upward, Gone to tell Jesus of his toils in life; Jesus, the Saviour, the great Messiah, Gladly welcomed the soul which was light. He was a soldier who bore great afflictions, He was a man of ambitious delight; He suffered many a pitiful hour, He bore the toils of his precious life. Is he in heaven to tell the great story? Yes, he is there to be a great light. He bore the cross of his blessed Saviour.

I hope to meet you soon or late, somewhere about the pearly gates. But, oh, 'tis sad, yes very sad, to look about home and fail to meet the dearest one as I used to meet. And let me say a word or two about our sweet daughters, little Ruth America and Maggie May, who are both with you in glory. Sleep on my darling babies, sleep on, sleep on, my dearest one, sleep on and take thy rest. I know I loved you very dear, but the Saviour loved the best. Lott V. C.

NEWARK, N. J. Largest Independent Cigar Factory in the World GREENWOOD & CO., Distributors 226 Bay Street, West We hear much these days about colored people not patronizing colored business enterprises— The truth of the matter is that many Colored business men have neither kept pace with the broadening and discriminating tastes of the Colored customer nor with the specialized efforts of their white competitors. "It's a far cry" from sentiment to business. This is the age of specialized selling methods and the Colored merchant must "fall in" or "fall out." The difference between the business which is "mighty fine" and "just so-so" is the difference in merchandising methods. We can help you to put your business into the "mighty fine" class.
