VOLUME XXXII Boys Displayed Their Charitableness CHARGES AT INDUSTRIAL FARM SHOW CHRISTMAS SPIRIT Out of Chance Earnings They Donate Liberally To Charity Hospital During the past season our people have given more largely to charitable affairs than ever before. This spirit has even permeated the boys at the Industrial Farm, who, from the meagerness of their savings, donated $5.10 toward the building fund of Charity hospital. Through the kindness of Supt. S. P. Brazzell, who is deeply interested in the boys, they are allowed to pick up old bones, brass, etc. These are sold by Mr. Brazzell who di-tiate the proceeds among the boys. It is from these sums that the boys from the fullness of their heart contributed to the hospital fund. Supt. Brazzell is to be commended for encouraging the boys along this line. Mrs. Rachel Moore, the matron, is doing her part in moulding character in the boys. Following is the letter that accompanied the donation: "Industrial Farm, Dec. 24, 1916 "To the Officers and Board of the Charity Hospital: "We feel that the Lord has blessed us, and Mr. S. P. Brazzell our superintendent has been very kind to us and we feel that it is our duty to do something towards making others happy. "Mother 'Rachel' told us that you were raising money to build a larger hospital and we 'trust' our little mite will be the means of making some one comfortable during their illness. "Inclue you will find five dollars and ten cents (85.10)." "We wish you a pleasant Christmas and a successful new year. "Trusting you will remember us in your prayers, we remain Sincerely yours.

CHILDREN AT URBAN LEAGUE SOCIAL CENTRE MADE HAPPY Pretty Christmas Tree and Singing With Useful Presents for All More than fifty children crowded around the Christmas tree at the Urban League Yamacraw Social Centre on Tuesday evening of last week. It was intended to have the exercises in front of the building, but on account of the indemnation weather the plan was changed. The children entered heartily in the singing of the carols. A short talk was given by the president of the league also by Miss L. C. Craig of Voorhees Institute. The main feature was the distribution of the pre-cuts. "These were selected with care by the ladies and to suit the needs of each recipient. In addition candy and fruits were given each. Even some of the parents were remembered. This helpful work is being conducted by the Urban League under the direction of Miss Cornelia McDowell and Miss Maggie Robertson. Plans are now being perfected whereby a larger place can be secured and more attractions arranged for the children. TEACHERS' CULTURE CLUB CELEBRATES ANNIVERSARY Rev. J. L. Taylor Delivers Principal Address One of the pleasantest events of the holidays was the celebration of the fourth anniversary of the Teachers' Culture Club by its members and friends at the home of Miss H. C. Houstoun, 510 East Anderson street. The program began with the invocation by Rev. J. L. Taylor. Miss H. C. Houstoun next as a contralto soloist was as pleasing as usual. The president, Prof. R. W. Gadsden, in his introductory remarks told very simply and pathetically the story of the Negro. To the least sanguine the dedication brought hope and showed possibilities that will be realized. The instrumental duet, "Poet and Pensant" from Suppe, by Misses Camilla Marshall and Rosa Mae Williams brought forth much praise. In the synopsis of the year's work, Miss Bethea Williams showed that the club had studied Shakespeare's "As You Like It" and sketched pen pictures under Mr. John H. Adams. Miss V. E. Box injected a bit of humor which created laughter in reading "Aunt Peggy and High Art". Miss Nettie Houston was very entertaining in her vocal solo, "Girriibrlbm". The main address of the evening by Rev. J. L. Taylor came up to the expectations of his hearers. Rev. Taylor is interested in school work and feels that the profession in its progressive move for the development of the powers of the mind should give emphasis to story telling. A quartette "The Forget-Me-Not" by Misses N. A. Houston, Dorothy Williams, M. R. Shivery and H. C. Houston was well tendered. Another feature of the evening's entertainment was a contest from Longfellow's poems. The prizes, some work of Longfellow, were won by Mrs. W. D. Thomas, Mrs. N. W. Este and Miss Melinda Smith. The club has thirty odd members and meets fortnightly at their homes. The officers are: Prof. R. W. Gadsden, president; Miss R. G. Houston, vice president; Miss M. R. Shivery, secretary; Miss H. C. Houston, treasurer. EUREKA CLUB HOLDS APPROPRIATE EXERCISES Monday Afternoon in its Club Room In accordance with its custom, the Eureka Aid and Athletic Club held appropriate exercises on Monday afternoon in commemoration of Emancipation Day.

The holding of these exercises by this organization is generally looked forward to with pleasure by its host of followers and the result on Monday was that a large and appreciative audience was out to witness the affair. The programs that were got out for the occasion were very unique and fitted splendidly as a souvenir for the guests. The exercises began at 4:30 o'clock and Mr. M. W. Bryan acted as master of ceremonies. Rev. R. V. Branch was the principal speaker and his remarks were timely and instructive. The program was well arranged and each participated acquitted himself admirably. The singing was exceptionally good and special mention is necessary of the duet by Miss Belle E. Brown and Lu Hendri Iverson and the solo rendered by Miss Geneva Fisher. The recitation by Miss Ruib Certer was a masterly effort, and well received. At the conclusion of the program refreshments were served. SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, SATURDAY JANUARY 6TH. 1917 LEADING PUPILS IN THE CITY PUBLIC SCHOOLS FOR DECEMBER AND TERM BEAUFORT, S. C. NEWS (B; J. C.

NUMBER 18 Emancipation Draws Large Crowd Emancipation Draws Large Crowd PARADE BEST HELD HERE FOR SEVERAL YEARS Uniform Rank Adds Much to Street Demonstration The emancipation celebration was observed here on Monday by a big street parade and exercises at St. Philip's Monumental church. The parade was one of the best First of January demonstrations seen in several years, about 1,500 persons taking part. The most spectacular features of the parade were Knights of Damon, Knights of Pythias and the lady scouts of the Imperial Ald and Social club, under Capt. Rivers. The Knights were in charge of Major W. H. Burgess. In addition to the social clubs in line were the lumbermen who were out about 300 strong. A new feature of the parade this year was the appearance of the Shaw Drum corps. Heading the parade was Middleton's brass band while the rear was brought up by several of the local physicians who drove in their car behind the carriages conveying the ministers, ladies and participants on the program at the church. The exercises at the church were witnessed by a packed house. The principal address was delivered by the Rev. J. A. Martin, of Fort Valley. Another parade was that by the long shoremen which took place about 11 o'clock in the morning. There were about a thousand men in line and the parade was headed by a brass band. BUL. BUZ. CAPTIVATES LARGE AUDIENCE Empire Club's Performance Scores Hit of Season But Bul. the beautiful comic operetta stared at the new Catholic hall on Friday night of last week by the Empire club was, beyond a doubt, the most delightful amateur repletion given here in years. Every feature of the play reflected great credit on those in the cast and with the exception of the several blunders made by the ushers, in falling to provide those holding reserved seat tickets with their proper seats, the unfair was beyond adverse criticism. The scenic effect, the costuming and the general completeness of every detail of the performance have elicited much praise from every one of the vast crowd which witnessed the production. The bright and shining individual stars of the evening were the petite Miss Amanda Jones as Princess Bul Bul, and her brother, Mr. Matthew G. Jones, who took off the part of Amitl. Both Mr. and Miss Jones showed a degree of self-composure which is seldom exhibited in amateurs, and their work stood out pre-eminently. Miss Jones' rendition of "Love is a Flower" brought out the beauty and charm of her excellent soprano voice and was roundly applauded. Mr. Marlon O. Johnston, as Caspian, came in for a most generous portion of the evening's applause. He was in fine voice and his rendition with Miss Jones of the duet "Land of Delight" was one of the most delightful numbers of the entire program. Mrs. A. R. Feresehe, as Lilla, mezzo soprano, and Miss Fannie Deveaux as Ida, contralto, both well and were given a big hand. Mr. A. P. Barnard in the role of Alain. Mr. Nelson Cuyler as a friend of Caspian and Mr. Jno, Habersham, Sr., as Justo, contributed largely to the success of the performance. The chorus work throughout the play was exceptionally commendable and reflected great credit on Prof. R. W. Gadsden who had charge of the musical features of the production. Throughout the entire play could be seen the careful training through which Prof. W, P. Tucker had carried the performers. To him more than any other individual is to be given most credit for the finished rendition of Bul Bul, for it was he who suggested the admirable setting for the play, the beautiful costuming and inspired into the performers the "pep" and excellent stage demeanor which were manifested through the entire performance. CHAPTER OF SORROW The Chapter of Sorrow by the nine chapters of the Order of the Eastern Star will be held Sunday night at Masonic Temple at 8:30 o'clock. This is one of the most effective services of the Order. Eulogies of the year's deceased members will be given by the several chapters.

Even as her doors are opened to the most distant parts of the world, so are the minds of her fashion designers open to receive ideas from the four corners of the earth. Whatever may be turned to good account is quickly utilized and brought before the public for the world of fashionable women to pass on. The very latest influence in dress has come from the far east. Japanese and Chinese embroideries and like effects have come in for recognition and have taken quite an important position in the world of fashion. © MCCALL Many of the windows of the best shops are now displaying the real Japanese and Chinese garments with their rich silks and gorgeous colorings. Most of us, however, are content to admire these beautiful costumes in the windows. No one has yet appeared on Fifth Avenue arrayed in the true costume from the land of the cherry-blossom. But many have been seen in costumes showing the oriental influence, such as the sketch above illustrates. Another country from which has come inspiration for some of the present styles is Spain. The red and black combination worn by the dark eyed senoritas of that country is frequently used with charming effect, especially in semi-evening gowns. From Spain also have come the beautiful fine lace scarfs or mantillas which are now fashionable, and the large combs for the hair which are used with the coiffur that is distinctly Spanish. It is well known that from Russia, also, we have received a great many contributions to the styles, not only in the lines of blouses and dresses, but is the Russian turbans raised high in front. Some of the turbans are worn with chin-straps, or "bridles", to which C. SILVA The Russian blouse dress, with a long blouse reaching to the knee and falling over a pleated skirt, is one of the best-liked styles of the season. Sometimes it is made with a high close-fitting collar, and again, the open neck with the becoming sailor collar is used with it. With the high collar and closing at the side, these dresses give very much the impression of a suit. It has been observed of late that such dresses giving the appearance of suits have been very much worn at after- Fall Loss of 1916 Mine Ectillis No-Life System Beauty Culture MME ESTELLE'S GRADUATING CLASS OF NEW YORK CITY noon functions. A waist with a short peplum sometimes gives this effect, especially when the dress is developed in velvet, velours, or the other wool materials which are used both for suits and dresses. Accessories of Dress Bags of all descriptions there are for these are considered a very necessary addition to the wardrobe in these days. Bags of velvet, suede, ribbon and beads are seen in such a variety of colors and shapes that no one can possibly have any difficulty in selecting those that will harmonize with her costumes. Of black velvet with a band of Paisley placed as the bottom or in the center, are some very attractive round bags finished with long silk tassels. Others show Chinese embroideries in gold and colors. The head embroidered bags of silk and velvet are still popular. Silver mesh bags are also worn. Beaded girdles, ostrich fans which are used for winter balls and ojeras and which come in all colors to match the gowns with which they are used, and dainty neckwear are only a few of the tempting accessories on display. Lace neckwear with high collars and long flowing jabots is again in style, and those who never were able to wear the low collars becomingly now have the chance to reveal in these. But the low collars are still numerous, made of fine linen, batiste, Georgette and net, embroidered ever so daintily and edged with lace for further decoration. Lingerie was never so irresistible as it is now. Of sheerest Georgette crepe and, silk voile in delicate colors are garments of every type. Fine embroidered underware, of course, is always correct. Wash satin and crepe de chine are more favored than ever for lingerie materials. HARDSTEW MAKES MANY VISITS Topeka, Kansas. Topeka is becoming noted for its contribution to civilization and its part for the uplift of humanity, and for that reason it is not surprising to find me back there, and when I tell you what brought me here this time, and you will rejoice what had me there before, you will rejoice that I am some pumpkin in this world. Before turning my attention to the visit to town, I must turn over the new leaf, and tell you that I am delighted to be in the world to start a new year, and to wish all the readers of this paper a happy new year, for Christmas is now over, and people have confronted another year. They are looking into the 365 days. Some will not be able to close this year for they will have paid the debt which all must pay. Last year brought to many joy and while to others sorrow, they have lost their deceased lines on earth, and they can only be consoled by looking forward to the day when they too, must go to join them. The race lost several strong men, and yet others must take up the work and let it go on. All of Arkansas mourns the death of Hon. Jos. E. Bush, of Little Rock who was a pioneer, a constructor and a helper of humanity. This wonderful character contributed to the masses, and his life was a great contribution to civilization. He wrought well, MME. ESTEL Top row, left to right, Mrs. Elizabeth Smith, Mrs. Marie Powers, Miss M amie Harper, Miss Imogene Lewis, Bottom row, left to right, Miss Gladys James, Miss Bessie Rivers, Miss Mary Wilder, Miss Ethel Roberts, Mine. Estelle at extreme right. On Monday evening last Mine, Estelle held her graduating exercise and reception in her spacious parlor and residence, at 72 West 153d street, N. X. It was certainly an epoch-making event. The great systematic and energetic character of this successful teacher and beauty culturist has once again asserted itself and its benefits will be long remembered. Shortly after 8:30 Rev. A. Clayton Powell of Abyssinia Baptist Church, opened the exercises with prayer. This THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE and now, he is no more. But he had given to the world several sons who were able to rise up at once and take his place. They were able to take hold and Chester Bush was elected secretary of the Mosaic Templars of America. He has been well trained and prepared to do the work. I want to here extend my deep sympathy to Mrs. Elvie L. Stewart, of Chicago, who was called away to Texas just the day before Christmas by the death of her father. J. H. Washington, who was her father, was one of the interesting characters of Texas. He was active in the affairs of the state as well as race. He had the pleasure of serving his state as a member of the legislature of Texas and was useful in many ways to his people. But like others when the time came, he too, had to go. Daughter and mother have my sympathy. I spent Christmas in Chicago, and pulled out of there over the C. M. & St. Paul, for Kansas City, and over the Santa Fe from there to Topeka to see what was going on there. I heard that there was a literary society which had existed every year for 25 years and the 25th anniversary would be celebrated. Dr. G. G. Martin, the president invited me to be there and I was there. I was there to see what was going on, and I am glad that I was there. The Inter-State Literary Association was the attraction in this city during the Christmas holidays. I never saw so much talent together at one time in all my life. Graduates from the University of Kansas, from Wilburn College, from the State Normal School at Emporia, from the Agricultural College at Manhattan, from other colleges and high schools. Doctors, lawyers, editors, poets, teachers, professors, all devoted a part of their Christmas week to the discussion of affairs of nation, of thought. The thinkers of the race were there, and for a moment I forgot where I was and almost thought I had left this world myself. Now this has been going on for twenty-five years, but little is known of their work and efforts. You see Kansas is full of opportunities, and while there are schools for our people here and there, yet all the institutions are opened to them without discrimination. They can enter any of them, and they have done so. They have been on the map for a long time, and they are just pushing to the front. Dr. Grant G. Brosw. was the president and now he is an expreident, for one can only serve a term, and must give way for another. This time Mrs. E. M. Guy was elected, and she is a woman of Topeka. They had an opening ode to tune "America" and was written by Tilford Davis, Jr., as well as the closing or parting song. He is some poet, and his work will class with the best of America. Read after him and it will remind one that he was reading after such men as Kipling, Bryant, Longfellow, Dunbar, and other great Americans. His work has never been called to the attention of the American people. He devoted his life to the service of his country, hence has not pushed his work as a writer. I had the pleasure of meeting a real composer of music. It was Chas. Fall class of 1716 Mine Estelle Nora Braunberg was followed by the singing of the national anthem, in which all present joined. Rev. Powell delivered a wonderful address to the graduates, of which the cool logic and eloquence of this address will linger in the ears of those present for a long time and his wholesome advice shall guide them to success. The next speaker was Mr. Garland Kennedy, a genius in oratory and art. His wit and wisdom, together with the masterly handling of his subject "Sanitation" won him hearty appreciation and reflected much credit to Mme. Estelle who has chosen not only a subject of vital importance to the graduates, but one thoroughly capable to deliver it. T. Wood, of Winfield, Kans. This young man, and he is young, because he is hardly twenty-one yet, but he is a genius when it comes to music. He writes and plays his own music as well as the music of others. He is one of the young men that the world will know. He is modest, and courteous to every one. His place has been won by himself by real work. To me it was a source of pleasure to look into his face, and it was worth my trip to Topeka to meet this young man and Tilford Davis. Dr. Brown, who retires as president is some thinker himself. Lawyer Guy, was a busy man, and his real genius did not get chance to crop out because he was chairman of the executive committee and was kept busy all the time. But we heard from others of his city. It would not be possible for me to comment on all the singers and other good people who took part in the work there, but they were on had and had their say. It was a pleasure to see them all and hear from them. I am going to save up my money and try to get to the next meeting which will be held during the Christmas week in Kansas City, Ka. I wish that I had time to pay a tribute to all who took part on the program, especially to those who took part in the contests, but they were so many, that it is impossible, so I just mentioned Lawyer G. C. Brown, the president who stirred the hearts of all, and then the poet of the organization, as well as the music composer. This was a meeting of brains and talent and I am proud to be able to say this about it. I am now headed for the South. I shall tell you about many things during this year. You may watch for me, for I am in search of information, and will tell you about people in various parts of the United States. I am going to do some riding from time to time. NEGROES OBSERVE EMANCIPA- TION DAY AT JESUP Jesup, Ga., Jan. 2. On yesterday the colored citizens celebrated very fittingly the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation at the Emory Methodist Episcopal church. The church was crowded with members of both races. Rev. J. E. Brown, pastor of the African Methodist Episcopal church, delivered a very interesting and inspiring address on "A Half Century of Freedom." He reviewed the achievements of the men who have made good since freedom. Rev. Brown made an eloquent plea for the Negro to acquire more property and education. He told them topatronize Negro enterprises, regardless of how humble they were. His speech was received with much enthusiasm by those present. Rev. W. B. Feagan, one of the white ministers of the city, made a very wholesome and practical address. He told those present to get more education and prepare themselves for the part they are to play in reconstructing a new South. His address was very helpful and inspiring. Mr. Ira S. Bryant acted as master of ceremonies. life System cultivar YORK CITY A paper read by Miss Wilder, one of the graduates, was also well received. This was followed by the presentation of diplomas, Dr. Mayneld officiating. Mine. Estelle was then presented with a cut glass bonbon dish by the class, which afterwards sang "Goodbye, Goodluck, God Bless You." When the formalities were over refreshments were served, and when the music started graduates, students and guests all joined in the "merry whirl" to the strains of popular airs. There remain seven pupils in the class that will begin its mid-winter session on January 2nd. For this class the Madame will accept a limited number of pupils. Savannah Fuel & Supply Co.

GER Savannah, Among the Masons Masonry regards not man for his outward appearance but the internal qualifications are what she want. If he be good and sympathizing, if he is loving and kind, Masonry needs his help, she is looking for men that are willing to lend a helping hand, be he minister, attorney, doctor, blacksmith, farmer, carpenter, merchant or any other profession, if he is not willing to help she needs not his aid, she wants no drones, no kings, no presidents, no governors, no dead-beats, but men of kind sympathizing hearts and tender hands and brains that think for themselves and do as God wishes that all His creatures should do. If you are looking for a place of ease and illness, a place of tattling and back-biting, a place of slandering and lying and untruthfulness, do not seek her portals, for you will be the most disappointed of all mankind and the most miserable of human beings. Masonry needs no man, but all men need Masonry. Masonry when fought, fights not back, when slanders, she slanders not again, but remember those truly Masonic virtues, "Silence and circumspection," and looks with pity and compassion on the ignorant and unlearned. Selected. Mutual Masonic Duties If our obligations, laws and ritual are not a miserable and profane mockery, then Freemasons are bound together by certain peculiar and sacred relations and bound to a certain course of conduct from which they cannot deviate without committing fearful sin and perjury. What then are the peculiar duties which a Freemason is bound to discharge toward a brother? This is a part of his great and solemn pledge; it reaches to all the relations of life, to the minute details of business, to all the acts of our hands, the word of our mouth, the plains of our heart. The Mason is bound to perfect a brother in all his interests and to warn him when he discovers some threatening evil. Consequently no Mason can devise a scheme which will tend to the injury of a brother's business and interests, without incurring the severeest penalties of the order. Think well of this, brethren, build up yourselves on the ruins of your brother. You must not cherish a thought for a moment, which thought, if ultimating in acts, would reduce a brother to poverty, and involve himself and family in distress. One of the most beautiful features of our institution is its social character and influences, its peculiar obligations, duties, and its lessons of brotherly love. It is this which gives a charm to our lodge meetings, which makes the members diligent and prompt in their fraternal offices, and willing to bear one another's burdens. But the sentiment of brotherly love involves other duties, and among them is that of forbearance. Brethren should not be harsh and passionate in their dealings with each other. Should we have reason to think that a brother is losing sense of his obligation and is falling from honor and restitude, it is our duty to treat him with charity and forbearance. We know not what unseen causes may have forced him into a seeming case of dishonesty. Even if the brother really offends against good morals and virtue, we are still to be forbearing and charitable, until all efforts to reclaim him prove unavailing. When a brother sins, the first thing to be done is to expostulate with him; and we are false to our obligations if we allow a brother to fall into vice, and to be cut off from our Compassion, without making an attempt to save him. Let us, then, exercise forbearance toward each other, and remember that charity is the brightest of all the graces, as it is the first and most imperative of all the duties of our society. Freemasonry frowns upon all recriminations and backbiting. It commands its disciples to defend each other's reputation, and prompt each other's welfare; but we do not mean that Masons are bound to uphold each other in vicious praérices. No, far from this—a delinquent brother is always to be brought to justice. But this must be done in a legal manner. If one brother thinks that he has received some injury from another, or feels that he has brought a reproach upon the order, by habitual vice, he is not to go about, and like a midnight assassin, or base coward, whisper his surmises (which may be, after all, entirely unfounded), to this and that one, and thus destroy his brother's good name and plunge him into disfres. This is unjust, unchristian, and in direct opposition to every principle and law of the order. What course, then, should a brother take in this matter? Commit his feelings to writing, and in open lodge, the lodge to which the offending brother belongs prefer charges against him, and have the matter adjudicated according to law. He is never to take the sword of justice into his own hands, but until the judgement of the lodge, and not his own judgement, finds him guilty, he is to treat him and speak of him as a brother.—Missouri Freemason. The degrees in Masonry are, but stepping stones to knowledge. The highest degree is that which bestows the greatest knowledge. KINLAW CELEBRATES EMANCIPATION DAY Emancipation day was celebrated at Kinlay at the Evergreen Baptist church, the largest church of any denomination in Camden county. After listening to several plantation melodies, sung by the audience, and a solo by Mrs. Wilmun King, Rev. F. C. Daniels, master of ceremonies introduced the orator of the day, Dr. B. W. S. Daniels, M. D., of Savannah. The orator, a well-known race advocate, spoke for one hour upon the economical and race problems in general. Conversant as he is upon the wide range of subjects paramount to the Negro's welfare and failures, he kept his audience with him from start to finish. He paid a glowing tribute to Hon. E. H. Morris, of Chicago, calling him the new Lincoln in Odd Fellowism. The exodus of the Negro from the South to the North came in for a part of his address. He pleaded for justice for the race, fair-play and equal opportunities or departure to more lucrative fields of labor when the chances fail to be accorded. The speaker made a lasting impression upon his hearers as a finished and very resourceful orator. Rev. H. Barnes of Jacksonville, Fla., offered the emancipation prayer. Five hundred pounds of barbeed steak and fifty baskets took the attention of the vast crowd after the exercises were over. An old folk's concert and mock court at night kept us goling. Dr. Dainiels addressed the concert and stimulated interest in the Negro enterprises of his home city, such as the colored banks. The Savannah Tribune, the mercants, lawyers and doctors of the race and asked that they be patronized which many pledges to do. (Mrs.) Ada Roberts, Reporter.

Entered at the Post Office at Savannah, Georgia, as Second class Mall Saturday January 6th, 1917 As a whole there is no set of Negro men who are doing more for the welfare of the community, and accomplishing more for the race here than the Negro business men. Their efforts for the past few years along uplift lines have been wonderful and by means of their excellent showing the endeavor of our people have been brought prominently to the fore. Aside from raising the standard of business among us they have on many occasions served us in other ways which have shown them to be men who are unselfish, race-loving and desirous of our people getting a square deal along all lines. In short, they have attempted to serve the people as best they could, doing everything in their power to further the interest of the race at all times. It takes but a slight glance at their accomplishments of the past three or four months to confirm this fact. 'Every well-thinking Negro here knows this to be true, and many of our white friends have recently commended our men of business for certain stands they have taken when the welfare of the race was in jeopardy. Therefore, we cannot see how or why the Rev. J. A. Martin, in his address at the Emancipation exercise. Monday should have attempted to make it appear that our men of business are not vitally interested in the welfare of the race, simply because certain ones whom he happened to know were not at the exercises. The Rev. Martin, perhaps, was somewhat proved because every member of the Negro Business League was not present to hear the message which he had to deliver. But, the criticism which he made of the absence of certain business men from these exercises will not in the least effect the standing of the business men here, for if he does not know of the inestimable value which these men have proved to the race in its every struggle here for fair play, every body else does. The unjust criticism which he took occasion to make, simply because every Negro business man in town was not present to hear his message either shows his ignorance of the many excellent movements which these men have started for the good of the whole race or a desire to injure them in the eyes of the community. From the first year of Negro freedom, it has been a custom, time honored and respected, annually, on the First of January, to make an inventory of the status of the race, recounting and recording its assets and liabilities, summarizing and balancing, and studying the many character-elements which go to fix that status in the scale of human society. The white man has set up a standard of civilization by which all human progress is measured, and we are accustomed to "grade" our own endeavor by that standard. Thus we inevitably and almost unavoidably, turn upon comparing the present social, spiritual and economic "average" of our own people with that of other people measured by the same standard, as well as to compare our present "rating" with that of preceding periods and years. We repeat, for this is the very best evidence of the individual concern over the group welfare, and it reflects that deep human interest and enterprise which characterizes preasages and actuates any positive, upward racial trend. It is the pulse-beat of race self-consciousness, race self-realization; it is the primordial gem of racial unity. It is a general law that the civilization of mankind is progressing, continually, but this is not true of all people or races, for they do not form a single society. Every people possesses an individuality of its own, and all progress among peoples is based upon competition among themselves. United—the Negro people, like any other, may be a great civilizing power, not unto themselves alone, but unto the world group as well, in promoting and helping to secure the peace, prosperity and permanency of the nation and its ideals; divided—they are not only their undoing, but are the victims of general exploitation, and a burden and a liability to society. Let us hold before ourselves the mirror and glance into a year's past, there to see our shortcomings and defections, mingled with our humble successes; and let us face these things fearlessly, prayerfully—with a grim determination to remedy the wrongs and increase the achievements. Only the past will teach us the laws which determine human progress. ¹ Accordingly, then, may we not inquire into the record of the Savannah Negro and citizenship? Have you conscientiously done your best for the proper home rearing and education of your children? Have you endeavored to improve your own health, and that of your children and neighbors, by improving the sanitation about you, and increasing the comforts and attractions of your home. What have you done to improve the criminal record of a vanah, and to reduce delinquency in gen- oral? What specific and definite act or acts can you point out, that you have done to improve anyone or anything hereabout? Shift the mirror, honestly. Personally, in the retrospect, we have found many things to encourage us and to make us sanguine of the future. Reports from the churches, charitable and fraternal organizations indicate that there has been marked advancement in the industry and morals of their ranks. Word from the schools, city and country, public and private grammar and secondary, says that nearly, if not all, are filled to overflowing, taxing the teaching forces in many instances, making double sessions necessary in some cases, with the students exhibiting a marked zest and interest in study, everywhere. The published reports from the city Health Department shows slight, but none the less significant, improvement in the death and disease rates, with splendid advances in improved sanitation and living conditions. There is a general wage increase, with plenty of work. Leading Negro business houses report better business. The three Negro banking institutions combined in distributing over Twenty thousand ($20,000) dollars to Christmas club savers, to say nothing of the thou-sands paid out to Negroes by white banks at that season. Negroes have built homes, and better homes, this year than last, although the City Hall reports a slightly less general total for 1916 as compared with 1915. One Negro contractor built and remodeled nearly forty. Economic advances may be, in large part, assigned to the curious combination of circumstances arising from the unprecedented demands on all sorts of our country's resources, made by the European nations now engaged in war, and to the consequent industrial unrest resulting in the increased wages in all occupations. Improvements along other lines, however are traceable to and find their explanation in purely local changes, and in no small measure to the growing spirit of cooperation and unanimity of action among all classes of our people here. All classes of organizations among us have experienced a good year. There has been better thought, better spirit and above all concerted action. There can be no achievement except in this way. We are learning to subordinate the individual will to the group welfare, and the principle is paying large returns. There are some conspicuous examples of what can be accomplished by this policy of group action, but we need not recite them here. We must neither vainly overestimate our strength, nor close our eyes to the difficulties which are yet to be overcome. If we wish to enter upon the road which leads to greatness, but rather, we must gird ourselves not faint-heartedly, but with faith in our ability and in the joyful consciousness that our strength will increase with the tasks we shall meet. We must possess ourselves in patience—think deliberately, act cautiously and sensibly. Lastly, let us lay a studied plan, leading to a definite goal, along the highway of the new year, and keep our eyes fixed on that goal, and we shall advance triumphantly. There is no reason why the many Negro industries and enterprises along West Broad street and elsewhere should not feel the results of this racial self-realization in increased business and better collections; no reaon why the Christmas club funds of the current year, in Negro banks, should not reach the worthy aggregate of Fifty thousand ($50,000). Dollars: no reaon why the pulses of the many organizations, churches and other, should not feel the throb of this new awakening, spurring them on to greater achievement; and, finally, no cause why every individual should not shoulder his proportion of responsibility in this new year, and face its difficulties prayerfully, fearlessly and hopefully, despite the acute social, industrial and economic tension under which we live.

Saures, Proprietor THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE SUNDAY SCHOOL. Lesson I.—First. Quarter, For Jan. 7, 1917. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson, John i, 1-18—Memory Verses, 11, 12—Golden Text, John i, 4—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. In these four gospel portraits of Christ we see Him as the King (Matthew), the Servant (Mark), the Son of Man (Luke) and the Son of God (John)—the same Jesus in each, revealed to us a little differently, that we may know Him more fully and more intimately. This gospel is certainly the eagle gospel, as the others are suggestive of the other faces of the cherubim, the lion, the ox and the man. Here we are lifted far above the others and carried back to the beginning, before the creation, to Him by whom all things were created. His name, "the Word of God," takes us back to the ten times repeated "And God said" of Gen. 1, along with Ps. xxxiii, 6, "By the Word of the Lord wore the heavens made." Then on to Rev. xlix, 13, when He shall come in glory as "the Word of God." How grand the statement in verse 3, "Without Him was not anything made that was made," reminding us also of Col. 1, 16, and leading us to exclaim Jer. xxxiii, 17. I often think of and quote these lines: "The Scriptures and the Lord bear one most holy name; the written and the Living Word are in all things the same. Then the word of any one, if sincere, is the utterance of the heart, and in Him we see and know the heart of God the Father. As Creator He is too far above us to be known by us, but when we see Him in human form, the Word made flesh (verse 14), then He comes to us in such a way that we may know Him. Though no man hath seen God at any time, any believer can see Him in the only begotten Son (verse 1S). Those of whom it is written in Ex. xxiv, 11, "They saw God and did eat and drink," saw not the Father, but the Son, whose goings forth have been from the days of eternity (Micah, v. 2, margin). So was it also with Abraham, and Jacob, and Moses, and Joshua, and Gideon, and Manoah, and Job, and Isaiah, and Daniel. Let us be content with the words of our Lord to Philip, "He that hath seen me hath seen the Father" (John xiv, 9). Not only is He God the Creator, but He is the Life and the Light of men. His first recorded utterance in Scripture is, "Let there be light," and then we remember that "God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ" (Gen. 1, 3; II Cor. iv, 6). So peculiarly is He the Life that there is no life apart from Him, for "He that hath the Son hath life, and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life" (I John v, 12). Life and light and love are three of the great words of this gospel, and in Him alone are found the three. He is called "the True Light" (verse 9), as He is also "the True Bread from heaven," "the True Vine," "the True Tabernacle" (John vi, 32; xv, 1; Heb. will, 2). John the Baptist bore witness of the light that men through him might believe, and one of the last words of our Lord before He ascended was, "Ye shall receive the power of the Holy Ghost coming upon you, and ye shall be witnesses unto me" (Acts 1, 8, margin). Could anything be more pitiful and pathetic than the statement of lesson verses 10, 11, that He was in the world that He had made, and it knew Him not, and His own people received Him not. Yet so it has ever been since Adam and Eve turned from Him in the Eden, where He placed them to enjoy Him and it. Israel would none of me. I would, but ye would not. Ye will not come unto me. Such are some of His words concerning our treatment of Him. Yet He loves us and pleads with us. Although He knows all the truth about us, He is full of grace toward us; "full of grace and truth." Praise God for the comfort and the assurance of verse 12, for, knowing that I did truly receive Him as my Saviour and put all my trust in His precious blood, this, with the following verse, made me certain that I had become a child of God, born of God, and, with John v. 21; I John if, 12; Isa. xilil, 25, and other words of life, gave me assurance of the forgiveness of sins that they would never be remembered against me and that I had passed from death into life. I have had this comfort now (June, 1915.) for forty-two years, ever since 1873, but had been a church member in good standing without such assurance for some years before that. It is not a feeling, but simply a resting on the infallible word of God that it is as He says. While Matthew, Mark and Luke refer quite fully to the glory of the transfiguration, John seems to sum it up in one sentence, "We behold His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father" (verse 14). The only way of true humility on our part (verse 15) and of victory over all present vanities of this world is to behold His glory according to II Cor. ill. 18. Then we shall be unable to see self and circumstances, and hindrances because of the glory of that light and because of the city we have so recently been learning about, whose light is the Glory of God and of the Lamb (Acts xxl, 11; Rev. xxl, 23).
