The
SO.GA.CONFERENCE MEETS NEXT WEEK
CITY OF BRUNSWICK TO BE HOST TO METHODISTS
Bishop J. S. Flipper of Atlanta Will Preside at Sessions
The South Georgia Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal church, will meet in the city of Brunswick on Tuesday of next week. Much local interest is being attracted to the conference on account of the two large Methodist churches here, St. Philip Monumental and St. Phillip, Charles street. It is not known whether the present pastors in charge of these churches will be returned here or not.
Rev. R. H. Singleton, who has been filling the pulpit at the Charles Street church for about seven years, is much desired by his congregation and they are of the opinion that he knows better than a new man how to meet the great demands entailed upon this church.
Bishop J. S. Flipper of Atlanta will preside at the sessions of the conference.
NEW AND NEEDED FEATURES AT SWANGIN SCHOOL
A Well Attended Night School Begun
—Parents' Association to
Be Organized.
Noting the need for additional night school features and the many requests for the same. Mrs. Emma Swangiu, principal of the Swangin School, decided to inaugurate one which begun a few weeks ago and is conducted on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday nights of each week at the Duffy street hall. There is an enrollment of thirty-two scholars, several of whom are adults. The method of instruction is such that it is not at all embarrassing to adults who wish to improve themselves.
Increased interest is being manifested in the school by the parents of the children especially. By invitation of the principal thirty of the parents were present on Wednesday night and talked over the affairs of the school. These parents along with the others will meet on Wednesday night December G. to organize a Parents' Anviliary of the school in order to aid in the advance of its work.
A petition for incorporation of this school will be presented the Judge of the Superior court today. If it is granted the new name will be the Swangin Normal and Industrial Institute. A board of trustees has been selected, and will meet immediately to accept the charter, organize permanently and inaugurate plans to make the institution one of the most helpful in this section of the state.
LOCAL NEGRO AUTO
COLONY INCREASED
The number of "buzz wagons" owned here by Negroes has been very appreciably increased during the past month and now the little auto colony is one of rather imposing proportions. In their collection of cars are makes varying from the high powered Packard six to the much desired "John Henry" Ford, the latter, of course, being much in excess of the other makes with the little Buick pulling up second in number.
Among the new members of the colony is Mrs. R. L. Barnes, who has a beautiful five passenger Chalmers six, upholstered in the finest and most exquisite material. Capt. E. Seabrooks, the popular undertaker, has just added this week to his machines a seven passenger touring car, a beautiful buff colored machine.
And the doctors! Well, of course the "John Henry" has a lead among them that will hardly be overtaken, but the Bulcks are running a good second with them. Dr. C. C. Middleton and Dr. L. E. Martin both having recently purchased the little touring car of this make and Dr. P. E. Love having now an order in for a runabout. And now here comes J. W. Johnston, the popular photographer, who has recently become a devotee of the Overland by virtue of his acquisition of a five passenger car of this make.
NGAGEMENT ANNOUNCEMENT
Mr. and Mrs. Cornellus Stephens wish to announce the engagement of their daughter, Amie Lee, to Mr. Gustone Valdes, of Havana, Cuba. The wedding will take place in New York in December.
VOLUME XXXII
Has Excellent Establishment at 43 Barnard Street
Mr. Frank A. Dilworth, one of the best known and most efficient shoe repairers in the city, has opened a first class shoe repairing shop at 43 Barnard street. In his new shop Mr. Dilworth has installed the latest machinery put out by the United Shoe Repairing Manufactory and is prepared to serve his many patrons in the best possible manner. He has employed two expert repairers aside from himself, one helper and one errand boy.
Mr. Dilworth's experience in shoe repairing business covers a period of
1930
about twenty years, seventeen of which were spent with the Hole in the Wall and about three as instructor of shoe repairing at the Georgia State College, which position he resigned several weeks ago to enter business for himself. There is hardly anything about the shoe repairing business which Mr. Dilworth does not know. He has made shoes to order for the leading people of Savannah and his repair work is always of the first class.
Having all the latest improved machinery in his new establishment, which is known as "Frank's Shoe Repair Shop" he can turn out any volume of work in the shortest possible time. He sends for and delivers shoes and his telephone is 1314-x and his place of business 43 Barnard street, next door to Pinkussohn's Cigar Store.
NEEDLEWORK GUILD COLLECTING ARTICLES FOR CHARITY
Officers for Next Two Years Elected Tuesday Afternoon
The colored division of the Savannah branch of the Needlework Guild met Tuesday at St. John Baptist church and elected the following officers for the ensuing two years: President, Miss M. R. Shivery; 1st, 2nd, and 3rd vice-presidents, respectively, Mrs. M. E. Tollert, Miss Anna Collins, Miss Ophelia Lee; secretary, Mrs. Joseph Jackson; assistant secretary, Miss Clinton Dingle and treasurer, Miss R. G. Houston.
The object of the guild is to collect new, plain, suitable garments to distribute among hospitals, orphans homes and other charitable organizations. The annual contribution of two articles of wearing apparel, household linen or a contribution of money constitutes membership to the guild. The officers of the guild wish to emphasize the fact that the work of the guild is to in no wise whatever supplant that of other organizations, but it is to assist wherever it can. Its object is to secure as many articles possible by a systematic, well thought out plan.
A number of ladies have volunteered to be directors of the guild and they are asked to meet Tuesday afternoon at St John Baptist Church. The garments which the guild collects must be in by Tuesday November 28th and will be placed on exhibition, the date and place to be decided later. It is hoped that the appeal of the guild for articles will be liberally responded to.
SABBATH SCHOOL AND YOUNG PEOPLE'S CONVENTION
The public is invited to attend the convention conducted at the Seventh-Day Adventists church, 36th and Burroughs streets, beginning Friday night November 17th. A special program has been prepared for Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Prof R. R. Wright of the Georgia State College spoke Friday night at 8 o'clock. The special subject Sunday night "Reason why we are Free Seventh-day Adventists" will be discussed by Elder J. W. Manns. There will be delegates from Charleston and Lincolnville, S. C.

Negroes Tear Up Lily Whites
LARGEST, POLITICAL ORGANIZATION SHOWS WORTH
Negroes Rallying Valliantly Behind R. R. Church, Jr., Leader
Memphis, Tenn., Nov 10.—The one great victory won by the American Negro in Tuesday's election came in Memphis and West Tennessee.
The Lincoln Republican League, R. R. Church, Jr., founder and president, unhilited the lily-white Republicans in an open contest at the ballot-box.
And more, the Lincoln League shattered the Local Option combination composed of white Republicans, Democrats and Know Nothings.
But most important, Lincoln League, now 5,000 strong and still growing, has gathered colored men into the most unique and largest political organization among colored people in the country. As leader, Mr. Church can boast of a following larger, more devout and more determined that ever lined up behind a colored leader.
Friday night the league met to consider the situation. More men were present—maybe 3,000 of them—than got together the Friday night before election. Beginning here, the capital of the Negro race, the battle is on to break the political shackles of the Southern Negro.
Candidates Won Down the Line
From Wayman Wilkerson, candidate
for Congress straight down the line,
the Lincoln League ticket polled a
vote larger than the so-called Republican' organization. With no protection at the polls, and local combinations against them, together with the natural bent of Democrats to brow-beat colored men, the candidates came through with an approximate vote of 2,700 as counted by election judges.
Thomas H. Hayes, popular business man, on a fair count, would be Florterial Senator from Shelby and Tipton counties. He ran his Democratic adversary smack up to the State House steps.
The campaign launched by Mr. Church and his supporters, grew in interest. From the middle of August until election eve, when Roscoe Simmons arose to close the campaign before 7,000 people, interest in the contest was without parallel in the South. And the women were more set and determined than the men.
Work Just Begun
The Lincoln League is organizing for local contests next year, and for Congressional race in 1918. Candidates will be put up for every office; county and congressional and since the great vote piled up by the organization establishes it as the Regular Republican party organization in this section of the state, the party will always be represented on the official ballot.
Mr. Church announced the morning after election that the fight has but opened. And behind him are the colored people, without a break, of the largest Negro city in the world. Wayman Wilkerson, candidate for Congress, ran away with his lily-white competitor. According to the daily press he ran ahead of Farley, lily 4 to 1.
GA. STATE AND SOUTH CAROLINA STATE PLAY MONDAY
Game to He Played on Ga. State. Cam-
pus at 3:30 O'elcok
The Ga. State College team meets the South Carolina State boys on Monday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock on their campus at Thunderbolt. A hard contest is looked for, in fact, a battle royal in which both elevens will put forth their utmost efforts to carry their colors to victory.
Coach Tucker has the Ga. State team on edge for the game and says that he anticipates a hard struggle but expects his boys to make a good account of themselves and "bring home the bacon". He is fully aware of the strong game which the South Carolinians usually put up and the "never give up spirit" which coach Hubert inspires in them yet he feels that with the well seasoned bunch he has this year victory will crown their efforts Monday afternoon. The game will undoubtedly be witnessed by a large crowd of football lovers from the city, as this is one of the most important contests of the season to be played here.
Admission to the game will be 15 cents.
Urban League Public Meeting
WILL TRY TO HOLD FREE CLINICS FOR POOR CHILDREN
Larger Place Sought in Which to Have Community Christmas Tree
A well attended meeting of the Executive board of the Urban League was held on Thursday afternoon at headquarters. In point of interest it was one of the best ever held. The several activities of the league were considered and authority given to further certain features of the same.
It was decided to have a public meeting same to be held at the Pekin theatre on Sunday afternoon, December 10 at 4 o'clock. A program committee consisting of Mr. J. C. Lindsay, Prof. R. W. Gadsden, Miss C. Emma Lewis, Mrs. A. E. Orner and Prof. J. G. Lemon was appointed. At this gathering the work of the league will be stressed and the Christmas and Charity Fund presented.
In order to secure a larger place for the holding of the Christmas-Community tree exercises, a committee composed of Rev. J. L. Taylor was appointed to confer with the Park and Tree Commissioners for the securing of Dixon Park.
Messrs L. E. Williams and W. J. Ayers were appointed to arrange for the lighting of the community tree. The idea of free clinics for the poor children was presented by Prof. R. W. Gadsden. It immediately met the approval of the board. A committee composing Prof. Gadsden, Mrs. M. E. Tolbert and Mr. A. B. Singfield was appointed to confer with the physicians about same. Helpful suggestions were made to further the affairs of our Christmas solicitations.
Report of the Women's meeting of last Sunday was rendered by Mrs. Orner, including the collection taken up for the general fund of the league. On account of inability to attend, a very interesting letter was sent by Mrs. Rachel Moore, mistress at the Juvenile Farm. With her committee she is planning to give the boys at the farm a Thanksgiving dinner. The committee is now soliciting for this purpose.
Authority was given for the printing to two thousand Christmas carols for the community tree. The members of the St. Cecelia Musical Club who will direct the music will begin practice with the children next week. Each Sunday school, etc., will be reached in order that the children will be well versed in the songs. The attendance at the social service center in Yamaecraw is good and the interest unabated. A small Christmas tree will me used for them also.
The ladies of the decoration committee of the community tree are at work, the name of each contributor will be published in The Tribune. Good work is being done by the committee of ladies soliciting among the merchants. The general committee on solicitation will meet on Monday to begin work among the lodges, societies, clubs and individuals.
The relief committee assisted several needy cases during the past ten days. A mattress for an old invalid man is badly needed, along with clothing. Assistance is also needed for a sick mother with five children. The father is away. The rent is due, the children are half starved with no food. Contributions in food or money may be left at The Tribune office or given to Miss C. Emma Lewis.

DR. HARRIS AND FAMILY OF ATHENS TOURING STATE"
Dr. W. H. Harris, of Athens, accompanied by Mrs. Harris and their children, were in the city this week on a tour of the state. Dr. Harris, who is grand secretary of the Independent Order of Good Samaritans and Daughters of Samarlia, is going thru the state paying official visits to the subordinate lodges. While here he initiated into the order a class of over one hundred.
Dr. Harris is using on his tour a beautiful new seven passenger Haynes touring car which he recently purchased. The party attracted considerable attention here where they took advantage of the beautiful roads of Chatham county. While they said, they found all the roads in the state in fairly good condition, yet they were loudest in their praise of the roads in this county and said they were as fine as they have seen anywhere. The party stopped at the home of Undertaker Monroe while here and left Wednesday for home.

Fashion Still Faithful To Simple Lines
Some Hints on the Latest Dress Trimmings
NEW USE FOR OLD PAISLEY SHAWLS
New York, Nov. S—Fashion has not awayed in the least from the simplicity that has been a marked feature in the very first models with which the season opened. Now, as then, most frocks depend on the beauty of the material and symplicity of the line for their success rather than on very elaborate trimmings. There was a time when the trimmings for a dress cost as much.

One-Piece Frock of Two Materials Need Hardly Any Trimming If not more, than the material, to the amazement especially of the women who wanted to be economical; but now it is the very contrary. A dress needs very little more than a touch of embroidery, or perhaps a contrasting color, to make it as smart as fashion demands. The ingenious woman, with very little effort and practically no extra cost, can add a great deal of style to her dress by a simple embroidered motif worked in heavy silk or wool yarn. A narrow banding of fur added to a collar or the edges of sleeves also gives a distinctive touch to any dress.
Another means by which Fashion eliminates the need for trimming is in the use of two materials for fashioning a dress. It may be two contrasting shades of the same material or two different materials in the same tone that
© McCALL
A Velvet Dress that Breathes Simple Elgance are used. Both effects are very charming and highly popular.
The pretty one-piece dress sketched here may be developed in two shades of satin, or in satin and broadcloth. The upper collar should be of Georgette finished with picot edging, and the lower one of the same material used for the pleated section of the skirt. The now sleeve, curving out to a point below the elbow, is outlined with a row of tinybuttons, and the lower edge is finished with braid.
The other illustration shows a stylish model which has met with great suc-
cess. The design, which breathes simple elegance, is distinctly appropriate for the formal dress that every woman finds it necessary to have at least one of. Such frocks this season are fash ioned of beautiful chiffon velvets, velveteen, lustrous satins, or soft woolen materials with a sheen, like duvetyn, velous and broadcloth. The snug bodice, fitted with soft pleats at the underarm, is buttoned down the back, a feature which is surely gaining favor this season. The ubiquitous pockets are here represented in the form of an extension of the bodice, and they are dacorated with colored embroidery in a conventional design.
The Use of Paisley Shawls
Something very new and distinctively attractive in the line of trimmings is the use of Paisley shawls, or Oriental silks giving this effect. At all the social gatherings this touch has been very prominent and proved exceedingly popular. The genuine Paisley shawl has been used by those fortunate enough to possess one of these rare old treasures or those who are able to pay the price asked for them. Those however, who would think twice before cutting up a valuable shawl handed down from previous generations, will find substitutes in the new silks specially designed to give this effect. The Paisley shawn is employed in many ways, not only for trimming dresses, but for hats, too. A very handsome dress was seen recently in which the upper part was made of a Paisley shawl and the skirt and sleeves of broadcloth. In the collection of Paris importations there was a striking set of cape collar, turban and muff of Paisley combined with fur. This combination was also seen on the collar of a dress, the fur being used to edge the Paisley collar. Another use to which the Paisley shawn has been put is the making of pretty, fancy handbags, and it is also used very effectively by millers.
Dainty Neckwear
Feminine fancy has turned again to dainty neckwear in the form of jabots and collars of real lace, embroidered nets and fine batiste with hand embroided decorations. A smartly dressed woman on Fifth Ave., wore a beautiful jabot of real lace over the front of her dark green tailored broadcloth suit, which had a deep sailor collar of fur. In such sheer materials as Georgette, silk nets, chiffons, and very fine batiste, collars and jabots are just as dainty as possible. Beads, silver and gold thread embroideries and silk or kool fringes are some of the most popular decorations for them.
The flat rolling collar of satin, flannel or broadcloth is still holding its own, especially for wear with one-piece frocks. For the most part, these collars are plain. The edges of some are pinked or bound with braid, and others are finished with the popular silk or wool fringes.
ban League, in annual session.
The following report from Chairman
J. G. Lemon of the Boys' club of the
Urban League, rendered at the annual
meeting of the league, tells of the many
activities of the club during the past
twelve months and shows that much
has been accomplished by this department
of the league.
Dear Fellow-workers:
In accordance with the duties assigned to me, I have the honor and pleasure to submit to you herewith my annual report on the Boys' Club department of the league.
During the year just closed, we have had an abundant success in our work in all departments. We have reached regularly through the year, in our weekly club meetings, something like half a hundred boys, besides a good many who come to us more or less irregularly. Our meetings have generally been interesting, and devoted to such exercises as are conducive to wholesome moral and physical development. In season, within our club, we have organized such athletic teams as would give us good representation and at the same time prove interesting to the boys. Our teams have done well in competition, and what is more, have conducted themselves always in gentlemanly fashion. A good many of our boys went away to work in the tobacco fields at the north this summer, and this, with other items, caused us to suspend our meetings for the summer months. We have resumed for the winter, however, with every promise of a good season. We have already put two football teams, East and West sides, into the field. Upon inquiry, it is found that the boys who went away had a good time, acquitted themselves splendidly before their employers and reflected great credit upon the league.
The school children's races had such a glowing success that it is almost unnecessary to refer to that * * * attracting between six and seven thous-
POMARD'S EGYPTIAN HAIR GROWER

and people, and furnishing spending entertainment for all.
The playground movement which you have inaugurated in the city, has proved to be a ten-stroke, and is turning out more satisfactory results than you could have anticipated. This is an investment of which you may well feel a sense of pride. It has supplied a vital need of the people, is appreciated immensely, and is growing to such proportions that we must call on you for more and better equipment and the establishment of another and larger one for the West side as early as we can get at it. Miss Lee, who is in charge there, is particularly well-fitted by inclination and ability for the work she is doing, and she is securing good results with the children. Besides the many varieties of play that her children are enjoying, she is conducting some instructional features in the way of story-telling, character play and basketry. When these ideas have been systematized and thoroughly worked out, we are going to get some very satisfactory returns for our effort along this line. It is the purpose of your committee to conduct this feature as economically and as sensibly as possible with due regard for the proportion of all things concerned. I must not fail to tell you of the many expressions of gratitude to the league from the parents and others who have observed or been benefited by the playgrounds, and of their hearty response to our appeal for their help to support and maintain them.
We are going to undertake to make our headquarters here more inviting and hence, more of a community centre. A little touch of the home-like and a little more of cheer will bring good results, and thus give us a better grip on the scores of boys whom it is our purpose to help.
We are undertaking to so bring the playground work to the attention of the city authorities that they will be willing to help us to carry forward the work with greater zest. We have some assurance of success, provided the usual untoward movement does not thwart our plans. It is our opinion that as a people we might secure many benefits from the city funds if we could learn the great lesson of co-operation and present a solid front. We are very grateful for the many services rendered our committee by various members of the league and others outside, and we are encouraged to go forward in the new year to win greater success in our work.
We believe that the league should take steps to broaden its work and influence, and in that, it must reach out into more avenues for workers. We believe that there are many who are willing to lend a hand if we can get hold of them.
Thanking you for your indulgence, we are
Respectfully.

HARDSTEW SHOWS UP AFTER
MUCH WANDERING ABOUT
Huntsville, Ala.—It has been a real long time since I sent a letter, perhaps not since the meeting of the National Baptist convention in Savannah, Ga., and some of you have been thinking that I was dead, but I have been resting up, and now I am ready to send you just a few more letters, and hope that they may find you enjoying good health. Of course they have had an election in this country and a very close share all round, and this will make us of more importance in the future. We will have to help to settle the many problems and questions in America, and I am proud of this one thing. I am one of the voters of the United States.
I have been so many places since I sent you my last letter until I hardly know where to start, but I think I had just as well turn my attention to the last place, and then if I have time to tell you about the other places, I will do so, but if not then I will mention them from time to time in other letters. I spent a few days in Roanoke, Va. attending the session of the Negro Organization Society. I am sure you do not know much about this, for I did not myself until recently. This is an organization of all the organizations in

It had its birth in the fertile bays of Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, who at the time was connected with Hampton Institute. Of course he did not see himself leaving Hampton at such an early date, but God had all this in His mind.
This was not merely an organization to make offices, but to help the people. It started out in a crusade for better homes, better farms, better schools and better health, and all of these things play an important part in civilization and the uplift of humanity this has been accomplished to a great extent. Now this is not mere talk but they raise money, and go into places where the schools need help and shell down the money for that, they go out in the country, help the farmers, help the home building and then have two men on the road all the time preaching the doctrine of health, better homes, better farms and better schools, to the people. They go from house to house, visit the schools, the churches, conventions, associations, conferences and everywhere they can find a human being to be helped they there. There is a farm demonstrator connected with the society.
Dr. Moton, on account of leaving the state, retired from active presidency, but he was made honorary president, and will be connected with the organization all of his life. Major Allen Washington, known throughout the state as "Big Brother," was elected president, while Prof. J. M. Gandy, another great educator, was made executive secretary; Prof. Edgar A. Long, of Cambria was made the recording secretary; Prof. W. T. B. Williams, was made the treasurer. Well you had an account of it in your paper, no doubt, and I will not enter into detail this time.
These meetings were attended by the people of both races, and the daily papers told their readers all about it. It was reported in full, and they did not seem to tire talking about this wonderful organization, and had a long strong editorial on it. I was delighted to see all of this and could hardly keep from shouting.
I just shouted right out in church, so to speak, when the leading white people of the city of Roanoke furnished their automobiles to the delegates to go over the city. This was a great thing I wish you could have seen that string of automobiles. They were headed by Charles Stultz, who is one of the finest men in the country. He had much to do with arranging the plan.
You do not remember Stultz, but he is the man who went with his employer to Miami, Fla., and the white men down there wanted to mob him declaring that no nigger should drive a car through the streets of Miami, because it was a white man's job. These rich white people threatened to sell out their winter homes and that would have put Miami into nothingness, and I tell you they got together and said that "nigger tourists" could drive through town, but none other. I could only thank God for that.
We went out in the country in one of them. I mean a big crowd. Editor P. B. Young, of the Journal and Guide was in the car where I was, and I felt that I was with big men. Mailtoter Brooks was in the same car. We went out to the home of J. D. Oliver. It was Bellgrove farm, and one of the finest owned by our people, and them people did have some dinner for all that crowd of men, and they did eat. It was indeed a pleasure to have been there, and I enjoyed it so much. I was seated at the time and table right by Dr. Moton, and that had some bearing on my head.
I remained through the session, and that Friday night meeting was a gem. I shall never forget it. During my stay in the city I was the guest of Rev. and Mrs. E. E. Ricks. Dr. Ricks is pastor of the First Baptist church where most of the sessions were held. I shall go bact next week and tell you about my visit through Virginia, and something else about that great big meeting there. God bless all the people. C. J. Hardstew.

Among the Masons
Masonry's influence extends around the globe. It is a golden chain of brotherhood that cannot be broken.
To uplift humanity and glorify God is Masonry's true mission.
In the field of peace, not of war, Masonry performs its greatest deeds.
Masons are the foes of injustice and wrong at all times and under all circumstances.
Masonry's record is a source of pride and pleasure to all lovers of humanity.
Masonry is an institution that combines in itself the very best elements of fraternalism. It is the originator—never the imitator.
The influence of Masonry is really remarkable.
Whether in the larger cities or in the country districts, wherever a Masonic lodge exists, it becomes a centre of influence for good.
In the estimation of the community Masonry stands next to the church, and is honored accordingly.
Of course, the outside world does not know the secrets of Masonry, and is ignorant of what takes place in the lodge-room.
But by observing the public ceremonies, the celebration of the festival days, the ritual used at funerals, and especially through the benefactions of the order and the moral principles taught and practiced by Masons, the world has learned that Masonry stands for all that is good, and pure, and true.
Hence the wonderful influence that Masonry exercises, not only among those of "the household of faith" but in the community as well.
Long may that influence continue for the uplift of humanity and the glory of God.
The other evening a certain lodge wound up a splendid year's work. The number of candidates to receive the degrees was double that of any previous year. There was plenty of money in the treasury. The lodge was in a highly prosperous condition, but something was wrong. An analysis of the situation showed that the lodge had done nothing to interest those of the members who were not concerned in the work, that while great attention had been given to the ritualistic and financial interests of the lodge there had been nothing done in a fraternal way. Then it was that the lodge saw where a mistake had been made and at once commenced to correct it. The lodge had already made plans for the
coming year, which insures that each member will find something on the program to interest him and will no doubt find a renewed interest in the fraternity. There are other lodges in a like condition and may well profit from the conditions above cited. Each lodge owes something to its membership and those lodges which are in the best condition today are those which are trying to do something all the time for those who owe its allegiance. Illinois Freemason.
Why a Mason?
Technically speaking, your obligation made you a Mason. Before taking your obligation you were Mr. Smith, a citizen, afterwards you were Brother Smith without, however, losing your characteristics as a citizen. There had been an addition without subtraction. But the question it not what made you a Mason? When, where and how you were made a Mason? But what makes you a Mason now and here? The answer must be, but in a high sense. "My obligation makes me a Mason. I was made a Mason at a certain time and place, but I am a Mason—I am still a Mason—because I fulfil the obligation which I assumed when I became a Mason." He is the true Mason who only day by day and hour by hour practices what he has been taught in Freemasonry. Not that the Mason cannot commit errors. Solomon wisely said: "There is none that sinneth not." But the true Mason will constantly be on his guard against wrong doing, will repent and reform, and as far as possible, will undo the evil and repair the wrongs which he has committed, and by the experience gained—sometimes bitter—will avoid them in the future. The true, the faithful, the genuine Mason is such, because being first prepared in his heart, he steadfastly performs, inefficiently it may be, but to the best of his ability, his duties to God, his neighbor and himself.—Selected.

THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE
CONSERVATION OF
NEGRO HEALTH for the pu
paligns in t
National Negro Health Week, to be Observed April 22-28, 1917
The executive committee of the National Negro Business League, at the annual session held in Kansas City, Mo., August 16, 17, and 18, 1916, parred a resolution ratifying the suggestion of the secretary of the National organization that a Negro health week be observed next year, as was done during the year 1915 under the general direction and supervision of Dr. Booker T. Washington, president, and the executive committee of the National Negro Business League. The secretary was authorized to work our full details of publicity in connection with the observance of National Negro Health Week, and announce same through the public press.
Since the meeting of the National Negro Business League, it has been decided by the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute to devote the coming Tuskegee Negro Conference, to be held January 17 and 18, 1917, to a discussion mainly of Negro health. It has thus been decided that these two influential organizations shall join hands in a campaign for Negro health. The week beginning Sunday, April 22, 1017, has been decided upon as the week to be observed, and an invitation is hereby extended to each and every organization interested in Negro health to join with them in the effort to improve health conditions among the Negro people, especially the daily and weekly papers, health journals, and organizations.
In the observance of this National Negro Health Week, these organizations are exceedingly fortunate in having the co-operation of such an important agency for civic betterment as the National Clean Up and Paint UP campaign Bureau, with head quarters in the Kinloch building, St. Louis, Mo. Mr. Allen W. Clark, its chairman, has written to offer its service to the National Negro Business League and other organizations, to the extent of supplying literature to any and all organizations which may be formed
for the purpose of conducting campaigns in the interest of better health for Negroes, and which may write to him for same.
According to the Negro Year Book, 450,000 Negroes in the South are seriously ill at all time, at an annual cost of $75,000,000; 112,000 Negro workers in the South are sick continuously losing annual earnings of $45,000,000; 225,000 Negroes in the South die annually, paying a funeral expense bill of $15,000,000; 100,000 of these deaths could be prevented, saving annually $6,500,000 in funeral expenses alone, and in potential earnings $170,000,000.
It is thought that members of the race will again welcome the opportunity to unite its efforts in one great National Health Movement, and thus gain the benefit of the momentum and enthusiasm that will come from another great united effort for health improvement.
As the late Dr. Booker T. Washington said in the 1915 call, "Without health, and until we reduce the high death-rate, it will be impossible for us to have permanent success in business, in property getting, in acquiring education, or to show other evidences of progress. Without health and long life all else fails. We must reduce our high death-rate, dethrohe disease and enthrone health and long life. We may differ on other subjects, but there is no room for difference here. Let us make a strong, long, united pull together."
(Signed) J. C. Napier, President National Negro Business League; R. R. Moton, Principal Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute; Emmett J. Scott, Secretary National Negro Business League, Tuskegee Institute, Ala.
Stroll out to Battery Park Sunday after church, examine carefully the new homes erected. You will be delightfully surprised upon inquiry at this office, how cheap you can and on what easy terms same can be secured. They are going to be sold quickly, take advantage of this opportunity to secure a real home cheap and easy. W. R. MORISON, 9 Whitaker Street. Phone 1069.

The coming session of the South Georgia Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal church, which meets in Brunswick next week, is of especial interest to Savannahans, for it will be then and there that this city will have the pleasure of either retaining one of the most useful pastors that has ever filled a local pulpit or the disappointment of having him sent elsewhere. We refer to the Rev. R. H. Singleton, who has had charge of New St. Philip church for the past six years. Rev. Singleton has not only ingratiated himself in the love of his immediate communicants but he has commanded the respect and admiration of the entire citizenry. He has not only been pastor of St. Philip but has given his assistance to every local movement which has been started for the advancement of the Negro since he has been in our midst. He has proven himself to be a man of the people and one of the few members of the local ministry who can always be counted upon to co-operate in any movement which has for its object the 'progress' of the race. We, as others, shall be pleased to have him returned here by the conference, for he has won a deep and cherished place in the hearts of Savannahans, but, if forsooth, he is awarded to the people of another section, we congratulate them, for wherever he goes he will serve not only his immediate church, but the entire community, for of such is this man made.
The observance of health week during the latter part of the coming month of April should be participated in by every community in which there is an appreciable number of Negroes. In this city, the observance of Negro health week for the last two years was productive of much good and we are pleased to note that efforts are now on foot by the Negro Business League to make the observance this year national in its scope. If ever there were a people who need to make special efforts to conserve its health, it is the Negro, and the movement which is being put on foot by the National Negro Business League to conservetour health, should be assisted by every Negro organization throughout the length and breadth of this country. There is much that we can do in these health week observances which will tend to lower our shocking death rate. As a people we are endowed with as good bodies as any other race, but through ignorance, vice and negligence we are brought to an untimely death. Movements like that which the National Negro Business League has started are our only hope of checking our far too many preventible deaths and as a people we should encourage them to the utmost.

WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT AT THE NATION'S CAPITOL
Washington, D. C., Nov. 15—Yes, there was a general election a few days ago, and the echoes of the most momentous contest for the presidency that this country has seen since 1870 are barely dying away. The long-drawn out affair has resulted in the re-election of Woodrow Wilson as chief magistrate of the American Republic and he is to occupy the White House for four more years after the 4th of next March. New York, Indiana and Illinois, which used to be the pivotal states, have been shoved from the center of the stage, and the post of honor of deciding the big fight fell to the far western commonwealth of California, which gave its "thirteen" lucky electoral votes to Wilson. On Tuesday night when early returns indicated Republican victories in all New England, New York, New Jersey, Michigan, Indiana, Wisconsin and West Virginia, everybody went to bed confident that Charles E. Hughes had won the Presidency "hands down". But the next day brought a change.
The Negroes, though giving the President negligible support, if any, are accepting the verdict of the people in the spirit shown by other Americans who failed to land their choice. This is a democracy, and the majority of the people rule. The colored people are American citizens and insist upon every privilege accorded them by the Constitution.
They give their suffrage to those they think most friendly to their cause, and fight like Trojans to keep their particular champions in power. Nevertheless, the Negro is a good loser. If defeated, he takes his liking for his share and goes on with his daily tasks until another battle royal come on. Negro leaders say they intend to meet the administration half way and it is stated that a delegation will make a call at the White House at the psychological moment, with a view of discussing certain matters that may have an important bearing upon the future relations of the race to the re-elected president of the United States. The issue at stake are said to be purely racial and entirely remote from politics.
It is noted that in the fight for Congress neither party has won a complete victory. The Senate is Democratic, by a somewhat reduced majority but the House of Representatives is practically dead-locked, as far as the old parties are concerned, with six scattering votes of socialists, independents etc, holding the balance of power between them. Which party will secure enough of these scattering votes to organize the House remains to be seen
One circumstance of interest to the Negroes of the land is the guarantee that in such a situation no legislation hostile to the race can be placed on the statute books, no matter how desperately certain elements in the Congress may desire the enactment of these so called "jim crow" laws. In this enlightened age, high-class men, regardless of party are opposed to passing laws to hamper the progress of any portion of the American body politic, and the handfull of malcontents, who refuse to accept the "war amendments" are rapidly finding themselves
EMANCIPATION ASSOCIATION HOLDS INTERESTING MEETING
A meeting of the Emancipation Association was held Monday at the First A. B. Church, Franklin square, Rev. N. H. Whitmire presiding. Mrs. Geo. S. Williams was present at the meeting and asked that each minister allow a boosting committee to appear at his church in the interest of the state fair. Her request was granted. Rev. J. A. Martin was elected orator for Emancipation day.
Mrs. Roberta, Jackson and Mr. Lindsay Lovett of Savannah, were married in New York and are residing at 427 Ridgewood avenue, New York City.
Sometime in September, a member of Crystal Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, by the name of Gus. Collins, who was leaving Atlanta for Pittsburg, Pa., obtained from me a recommendation to the brethren in that city. He claims that while in the act of purchasing his ticket, that someone stole his suit case, all his clothing and the recommendation.
Information comes to us that the party is operating in some parts of South Carolina and Georgia on that recommendation telling various kinds of stories of hard luck and having the lodges he visits to send to Crystal Lodge to have the money given this fake refunded.
This is to officially notify the public that the man is a thief, impostor and impersonator, and they are also requested to turn this man claiming to be Guss Collins over to the officers of the law, prosecute him, and notify Guss Collins, who is now in Atlanta, at No. 26 Fortune street. This will further notify the lodges in this jurisdiction to aid no one until informed by me as to their worthiness.
I would also notify our brethren in the North and East to be on the look out for the impostor in this general movement of our people to those points. We have good brethren who have gone to those sections of the country, but I know also that some fakes have gone, and I take this method of warning our brethren in those states to be on the look out for them. Our fraternity does not aid or shield any criminal in any crime whatever at any time or place.
CONGREGATIONAL 'STATE CONVENTION BEING HELD IN ATLANTA

Representatives from this city are Rev. Wm. L. Cash and Mr. P. A. Denegal, representing the church; Mrs. Willie Brown, representing the Women's Missionary Society; Miss Lucille B. Spencer and Mr. I.

FIRST A. B. CHURCH ORGANIZE
BROTHERHOOD
The male members of the First African Baptist Church, Franklin square, held a very enthusiastic meeting on last Wednesday night and permanently organized a Laymen's League in the church. The work of the league was ably discussed by some of the most prominent members in the church and a deal of interest was manifested, which gave evidence of its success along the line of effectual church work, together with a cooperative spirit to do social service work in the community. The officers elected to serve the organization were as follows: President, Dr. F. S. Belcher; Mr. W. J. Ayers, vice president; Mr. S. M. Lee, treasurer; Mr. W. G. Williams, secretary.
HAINES INST. RECEIVES VISITORS
FROM SAVANNAH
By A. Clayton Cannal, Jr.
Augusta, Ga., Nov. 14.—Fresh from the fields and for the good of man-kind, creators of opportunities for our boys and girls, W. S. Scott, E. W., Sherman, L. M. Pollard and Aggie Blackshear, of Savannah, were guests of Halnes Institute Monday morning. The student body was assembled in McGregor hall to hear the many words of encouragement that came from these men of many years' experience. The speakers brought glad tidings from Savannah with a usual pleading for the young men and women to "take hold." The student body sang some of the old but much preferred plantation melodies, together with congregational singing, and these with the usual observance of discipline, and the regularity of Halnes students military marching were special mentions of the guests. The visitors were in the city in the interest of the Guaranty Mutual Life & Health Insurance Co.
Mrs. Olivia Jackson has returned to the city after a pleasant visit to relatives and friends in Florida and South Carolina.

ball to the Tigers’ one yard line, and
was held there four consecutive downs.
‘The Tuskegee team, man for man, out
weighed the Tigers by far, but the Ti-
gers were too swift for the beef.
‘There was little sensation through the
game. The day and the fleld forbade
such. The fight on the one yard Une
may be remarked as the feature of tho
game. Richardson's recovery of a fum-
ble, and a desperate dash of 45 yards
‘for a touchdown was of the most spec-
tacular plays. It was the turning
point of the game. Up to this time
Tuskegee by tne plunges was fast push-
ing the Tigers back into their territory.
'This touchdown seemed to take the in-
lative ginger out of the huskies.
Figures show the following facts:
Tuskegee registered 13 first downs,
Morehouse 10; Morehouse had 40
downs, while Tuskegee had 67; More-
house attemp*ed 14 line plunges, Tus-
kegee 27; Morehouse made five suc-
‘cessful forward passes, Tuskegee 103
Morehouse made two fumbles, Tusk-
kegee nine; Morehouse penalized 8
times, Tuskegee 6. ‘The Tigers were
not forced to open their feature for-
mations. They tried nothing but
straight football for the entire game,
though they tried a forward pass now
and then just to open up the Tuske-
gee defense for their line smashes.
Thus far the Tigers’ goal is still
uncrossed. Out of the four games that
have been played, 128 points have been
registered against their opponents.
Touchdowns: Richardson, Warrer
and Jones; goals, Lewis 3: safety, 1;
referee, Shaw (Howard); umpire
Sims (Oberlin); headlinesman, Bell
(Talladega.)
In one of the weeklies last week
Fisk states that he had played on
hard game, West Virginia, and thal
she had only one more, Howard. It
Is to be consideredhowerer, that More
house plays Fisk,on Thanksgiving day
A game of interest is at least expect
ed, especiully since Morehouse goes t
Nashville with a most presentable rec:
ord for this season. She has played
fonr games alreads. They are all in
the whiniug column: Morehouse 47,
Clark 0; Morehouse 82, Morris Rrown
0; Morehouse 26, Talladega 0; Bore
honse 2% Tuskegee 0. The team has
met with il luck in the past two games
two of the men are out for the season,
and it 1s doubtful whether a third will
et back. Coach Harvey now has the
problem 6f filling these breaches by the
Fisk pane,
So far, with respect to the number
of games played between Fisk and
Morehouse, Morehouse has won one
more game than Fisk, and her natural
intention is to keep the lead.

Jaws are necessary to preserve his civic

The colored Republicahs are marking
time and analyzing the methods pnr-
sued by thelr party during the recent
campaign. They are not entirely satis-
fied that they were given a chance to
get in their best work, It was not un-
til far Into October that the Advisory
Committee was appointed. The time
Detween then and election was too brief
to build up an effective organization,
circulate literature and place the right
wpeakers at: the strategic points. It is
‘iaimed that some of the ablest ora-
tors of the party could not get into
the fight at all, owing to divided au-
thority and general uncertainty as to
what ought to be done. There és com-
wlaint, loud and deep, as to the manage-
ment of the colored end of the cam-
palzn, although to the laity, the Ad-
visory Committee did the best it could,
sonsidering the lack of time afforded
i@ far organization and-comprehensive
work. The colored branch of the Dem-
eeracy had headquarters in New York
smd Obicago, and they placed consider-
able literature in circulation in the
‘enters of Nesto population |
Now that the great battle 1s over,
faere tis a disposition on’ the part of
eur people to get back to business and
ettle down to a systematic plan of
educational, industrial and commer-
,sial development, with politics as a
“alde Une.” Tor the protection of civil
tights, but not as a steady diet. Some
notable history is likely to be made
by our folks in the next few ‘years.

| * Nov. 19, 1916,
THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES.
Memory Verses, 30, 31—Golden Text,
Rom. i, 16—Commentary Prepared by
Rev. D. M. Stearns, *
After carrylng three months at Malta
another ship from Alexandria, which
had wintered in the tele, was sailing
for Italy,,and on that they departed
apd reached Italy in safety, remaining
three days at Syracuse and seven days
at Puteoll on the way. No doubt the
gospel was preached at both places,
bat at the latter place there were De
Hovers, and the fellowship must have
beon very helpful to all. % woul be
a great event for the othr at
Puteolt te hear from those who Bil so
recently come from Jerusalem, and to
hear Paul zell of bis misslonary tours
and rehear¥e all that God had done by
him and all that he had suffered ob his
tours at Jerusalem ntust have thrilled
| an assembly of bellevers and insptred
them with greater zeal for God and
his kingdom.
‘The brethren at Rome, having beard
ot Paul's arrival In Italy, came out to
meet him as far as Appi forum and
the three taverns, and, baviog wel-
comed him and encouraged him, they
returned to Rome together. I some-
times use this Incldent' as suggestlvely
illustrative of our meeting the Lord, in
the air and returning with Him when
He shall come to set up His kingdom
Just the meeting and returplug—I have
no other thought of any analogy in the
Incident (verses 11-15). Another hand-
ful of purpose seems to have come
Paul’s way in hls being allowed to
well by himself with a soldier that
kept him (verse 16), That soldier must
have learned much of Jesus Christ, for
as Paul talked to him privately it was
Ike pouring water into a bottle rather
than throwing It at a lot of bottles.
Our Lord spoke more than once to
audieuces of one, as in the case of
Nicodemus and the woman of Samaria.
Having called the chief of the Jews
together, Paul explained to them why
he Lad come to Rome as a prisoner,
adding, “For the hope of Israel I am
bound with this chain” (verses 17-20).
‘There is only one person who fs called
the hape of Israel or the hope of the
church, only one in whom there is any
hope for elther (Jer. xiy, 8; xvii, 13;
Joel ii, 16; 1 Tim. 1, 1). Bis coming
, for us is our blessed hope, and His
coming with us in glory will prove
Him to be the hope and Saviour of
Israel as a nation (Tit il, 13; Isa.
xxv, 8, 9; Zech. ‘xii, 10; xi, 1). The
brethren at Rome sald that they had
never heard anything against Paul,
but they would like to hear what he
thought of this sect that was erery-
where,spokeu against. A day having
been appointed, many came toShis
lodging, to whom be testified and ex-
pounded the Scriptures of Moses and
the prophets concerning Jesus and the
kingdom of God, from morning till
evening (verses 21-23).
As they listened-to him some believ-
ed not. ‘Chey could not ugree and had
much rezsoning among themselves,
which led Pau! to turh to the gentiles
with the good news, quoting to the
Jews what the Holy Spirit had said by
Isaiah concerning them bundreds of
years before ju what we call chapter
¥1. These sayings of the Spirit through
Isalah concerning Israel's blindness
and hardness, of heart are quoted in
Matt. xlil, 14, 15: John xil, 39, 40; Rom.
xi, 8, as well as ‘in our lesson. Jerg- |
miah and Ezekiel were both told that
they must expect opposition and that
thelr message would not be recelved |
by many (Jer. f, 17. 19; Ezek, ii and
iti, xxxiif, 31). ‘The apostfes also were
told that they were sent out as sheep |
in the midst of wolves and might ex-
pect to be hated, put out of the syn-
agogue and Killed (Matt. x, 16-28; Jobn
xv, 18-21; xvi, 13). The most that we |
can aim to do in this age {s*by all
means to save some (I Cor. ix, 22), for |
we are nowhere taught that the world
will ever be won to Christ until Israel
shall have received Him at His coming
in glory, and then when the glory of
the Lord shall have risen upon Israel
and shall be scen upos her the nations
shall come to her Nght and kings to
the brightness of ber rising.
Paul continued to preach the king-
dom of God and teach those things
which concern the Lord Jesus Christ
| for two whole years to all who came
‘to him in bis own hired house. ‘There
were many believers, even in Caesar’s
household, and his bonds for Christ
Were manifest at Caesar's court ad well
as elsewhere, and many of the breth-
ren in the Lord, waxing confident by
5 bonds, were much more bold to
‘speak the word without fear (Phil. 4,
13, 14, margin: iv. 22). This book of
