The Savannah Tribune. The Rev. D. Augustine Reid VOLUME XXXII The Rev. D. A. Rev. D. Augustine Reid Passes Away Rev. D. Augustine Reid Passes Away DEATH CAME RATHER SUDDENLY SUNDAY MORNING Was Buried Wednesday at Noon From First A. B. CHURCH Rev. D. Augustine Reid, pastor of the First African Baptist church, West Broad and Bolton streets, died Sunday morning at 8:45 at his residence 625 Gwinnett street east. Rev. Reid had been in ill health for over a year but his death Sunday came rather unexpectedly. Shortly after leaving here for his charge in Anniston, Ala., he suffered a stroke of paralysis which left him some what indisposed. Upon returning here a second stroke overtook him about three months ago, from which he recovered sufficiently to fill his church duties and the stroke of Saturday night was the third and final. Rev. Reid was 46 years of age, being born in Kingston, Jamaica, on December 25, 1870. He came to this country when a young man and entered Hampton Institute. From Hampton he entered the mini-try, having his first charge at Clifton Forge, Va. From there he went to Harrisburg, Pa., as pastor and then to Germantown, Pa. From Germantown he was called to the pastorate of the Second Baptist church, this city, remaining here four years and then going to the Seven- teenth Street Baptist church of Ankiston, Ala. Here he remained for a period of two years and was then recalled about a year ago to this city by the First African Baptist church, Bolton and West Broad streets, which church he was serving as pastor at the time of his death. He was one of the most energetic pastors in the local field and was widely known for the up-to-date money raising methods which he inaugurated in the churches he served. He was a man of commanding personal appearance and a fluent speaker. His funeral took place Wednesday at noon from the church. The Rev. N. M. Clarke, pastor of Beth Eden Baptist church, conducted the services and was assisted by other well known ministers. The interment took place in Laurel Grove cemetery. Rev. Reid is survived by his wife, Mrs. Willie R. Reid and four children. DR. NORTON EXONERATED IN FEW MINUTES Serious Charge Against the Doctor Fell Flat The trial of Dr. Geo. M. Norton, one of our leading white physicians took place in the Superior court on Wednesday. He was charged with assault with intent to murder in connection with an alleged criminal operation. The jury was out less than five minutes finding a verdict of not guilty. The colored friends of the doctor are elated over his complete vindication. NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITOL The Board of Education has accepted the resignation of Miss Beatrice Richardson, a teacher in the public schools.

The date of the Queen's Pageant has been changed from April 10 to April 24, in order to allow the very busy director, Mme. E.

E. church were in the city this week in the interest of Claflin University. Dr. Dunston spoke very highly of the way that colored people throut the state were responding to Claflin's endowment fund. Bishop Leete made a fine address in behalf of Christian education among the colored people. Other speakers of the evening were Rev. Kennedy, the presiding elder, also Rev. Isaac Meyers, Rev. McFadden, Rev. D. W. Bythewood, Rev. Peterson. Rev. I. E. Lawrey pastor of Little Wesley M. E. church, raised more than $79.00 in cash and subscriptions for Claflin endowment fund. Prof. Raleigh A. Scott M. B. of Chesterfield, England., is in the city this week with his grand recital of poetry and song. He seems to be leaving the trail for his many followers to pick up. He gave two recitals here this week at the F. A. B. church to packed houses. Mrs. Margaret Wright is still confined to her bed at her home. We hope her a early recovery. War Is Declared Against Germany BUDGET FOR MILITARY CALLS FOR $3,400,000,000 Large Standing and Voluntary Army To be Raised Washington, D. C., April 6.—The resolution declaring that a state of war exists between the United States and Germany already passed by the Senate was passed by the House at 3 o'clock this morning by a vote of 373 to 50. Without roll call the House rejected all amendments including proposals to prohibit the sending of any troops overseas without congressional authority. President Wilson will sign the resolution to-day as soon as Vice President Marshall has attached his sigature in the Senate. It formally accepts that state of belligerency forced by German aggressions and authorized and directs the President to employ the military and naval forces and all the resources of the nation to bring war against Germany to a successful termination. Passage of the resolution followed seventeen hours of debate. There was no attempt of filibuster, but the pacifist group under the leadership of Democratic Leader Kitchin prolonged the discussion with impassioned speeches declaring conscience would not permit them supporting the President's recommendation that a state of war be declared.

Lindsay Much is being said in these days of guess work and speculation, as to what the final outcome of the industrial and economic condition of the South will be, as it relates to this great migration movement of the South's best and strongest Negro laborers, who are leaving these parts by every shi which leaves our great southern port for the North and East. Not only are the newspapers, magazines and pulplits dis cusing he aggrieving and perplex ing question, but the thinking men and women of every walk of life and beginning to be concerned about this question of so many of our best and most competent workers leaving the South for the North, East and West. On Friday March 30th, more than two hundred of our young men and young women left on a certain ship for the North, where they have been led to believe that working conditions for them will be better, where wages will be higher, where whole-one recreation will be opened for them, with members of other races, where the enforcement of law and order will mean to them just what it will mean to members of any other race. Now, when all of these and a thousand and one other things are taken into account, where is the honest man who dares to go up to an intelligent young Negro man and look him squarely in the face and attempt to read him a lecture with the hope of trying to make him believe that black is white and that white is black? There is not a Negro business concern in this entire southland, but what has not, and is not feeling the heavy weight of the hand of this unprecedented exodus of our people to the North, East and West; and we make hold to predict that none of us feel it now as keenly as we are going to feel it before it recedes, unless all signs which are so prominent now fail significantly. In view of what awaits us from an industrial and economic standpoint, as to the handling of this much mooted problem, concerning the scarcity of labor in the South, brought on, as a result of the European war, the white man must lay aside his scruples and traditions, and like a big hearted business man, rise to the dignity of the occasion, as he alone is able to put a stop to this migration business in thirty days. No doubt you are debating the proposition in your mind now, as to how best to go at this thing. We think that we can come more nearly telling you of some of the ways how not to go at it than, perhaps we can tell you how best to go at it. These are some of the ways we would advise that you do not go at it; namely: coercion, intimidation, playing the common "bully," arresting school boys, along with other inoffensive persons of color and locking them up in prison for hours and some times all night, for no greater offense than that of showing a disposition to better their condition. These, and many other such unfair and unjust discriminations, are those that we would ask that you throw to the wind when you begin to handle the situation, in which are concerned men and women of taste, education, refinement and common sense. Yes, we repeat, the white man, yea, southern white man, can call off this emigration business in the next thirty days. It is up to him, and to no one else. When ever he comes out in the open and assures the Negro who has become dis-contented and discouraged, that he, the white man, is going to see to it that he, the Negro, is given a fair showing to make a decent living, with proper and careful considerations along all economic, industrial, as well as educational lines, and that the Negro will be given the same consideration as is given all others before the law; not enough Negroes would leave the South, for the East, West, North nor for any other country, as to that matter, to play a game of ball, furnishing nine players to a side. Yes, the Negroes in business are feeling this great evodus of our people from the South to the North and East, and somebody is responsible for their leaving here. Every line of business operated by our men and women has felt and is still feeling the loss of the trade of our people who have left here in the last ten or a dozen months. The debits of the Negro insurance companies have felt the loss very distinctly. The Negro bankers have felt it in the same proportion as the Negro insurance companies. The Negro merchants, real estate dealers, newspapers and magazines and the many other what nots, have all felt the effects of this great movement North, East and West of our people from the South. Therefore, the Negro business men all over the South desire the big hearted white men, for once, to lay aside his scruples and traditions and rise to the dignity of the occasion and make the living conditions so pleasant for the Negro of the South that he will spurn the idea of leaving this section to go any where, except heaven. Come early to your next meeting which will be Friday evening April 20.

A time like this demands Great hearts, true faith and ready hands, Men whom the lust of office does not kill, Men whom the spoils of office cannot buy, Men who have opinions and a will, Men who have honor, men who will not lie. Men who can stand before a demagogue, And damn his treacherous flatteries without winking Fall men,—sun crowned, who live above the fog, In public duty and in private thinking For while the rabble with their thumbworn creed. Their large professions and their little deeds, Mingle in selfish strife. Lo, Freedom weeps! Wrong rules the land, and waiting Justice sleeps. —J. G. Holland TWO FAMOUS MAXIMS Fifty years ago, Gen. W. T. Sherman gave utterance to that famous remark: "War is hell." He made his opponents feel the truth of it. This week, Senator Henry Cabot Lodge remarked that War is preferable to National Degeneration, emphasizing his maxim with a clenknock-down of a peace-at-any-price advocate. Both men seem to know just about what war is. They appear to play the game fairly well. Spring is here—and Easter! Nature is alive, awake, and a-dress in a fresh frock of splendid green—beautious and rare. In constantly recurring and unchanging cycle, the rounds of nature come and go. The wondrous philosophy of the ages is pent-up and unsolved in the unfathomed riches of nature. The Great Earth, itself remains but an item in the wonder of creation, in the mystery of what is., The regularity of natural change, the sameness of seasons, the hum-drum of animal life, all these, lend to the commonness of view of little minds. There is a wealth of meaning in all this procession of things: the sowing and reaping, the budding and ripening, the seasonal migration of birds, the mating and maturing of kind, the warmth and cold, sunshine and shade, the rise and fall of empires, life and death,—and what not. In these lie the solution of life's conundrum—the rail-on d'etre of being and Beings. Study the riddle of life and creation in nature and grow in wisdom and soul. The joyous and significant Easter anniversary reminds of the Cause of things—possessing the mind with the thought of creation, and the Creator. It puts the emotions in tune with the divine world; prepares us for soul-adjustment and soul-fellowship with God, who has expressed Himself eloquently in the universe of men and things. It gives us a fresh and vitalizing vision of life's goal, the "more abundant life." May we enter the Easter-tide with the reverence and humility of the Christ—in whom the perfect example was epitomized. "He is risen," as he said. Our country is at war! We cannot anticipate the character the casualties or the consequences which this dread condition may entail. * * * the possibly awful and dire results cannot be fore-hadowed, or conjectured. As a nation, we have scrupulously and studiously tried to avoid war, in the face of fragment violation of sacred human rights, treaty relations and the common laws of nature. We have withheld the armed might of our great government, almost, to the point of sacrificing our international respect and our self-reverence. We have demonstrated to the world that we did not wish, unnecessarily, to take any hand in the great struggle. We have exhibited no parisiphhip. The records of the past two years have solemnly chronicled the details on which our just position is based. Goaded past the breaking-point the American conscience has asserted itself—and in no uncertain terms. The intentions of the American commonwealth have been vigorously and clearly excluclated by the President in his Monday's address before the assembled bodies of Congress. This position has been overwhelmingly ratified by Congress. These are the prin- ciples upon which our case is based. Our attitude all along has so guided and directed as to win the most condemned pacifist to our announced present policy. The morale of the American people beistles in the consciousness of justice and the reverence of human rights. We shall assert our position rigorously. We are solidly behind the President, the Cabinet and the Congress. The smouldering fires of the spirit of '76 and '81 are already enkindled; the flower of American young manhood; of all classes, has already quilt its wanted task and tendered its service to the colors; the collateral and allied resources of the nation have already volunteered themselves for the muster; the rank and file of every class and clan, kith and kin, has risen to shoulder any eventuality; the fires of patriotism are burning brilliantly. We are ready. There can be no question of the individual view. There can be no wavering. There can be but little debate. This issue is drawn—sharply and taut. The warm, red blood of unalloyed patriotism and national loyalty—so often tried and never found wavering—still flows in the veins of the American Negro. There is no tajt of apathy to strain of treachery, no motive of selfinterest in us; we see, we entertain no thought save the supremacy of our nation's loftiest traditions and ideals—to these we subordinate all else, everything. The blood, so freely spilt in the streets of Boston, at New Orleans, at El Caney and at Carrizal, is recovered, rejuvenated, and ready to be poured out afresh upon the altars of world liberty, world freedom and the supremacy of human rights. We can almost hear the measured martial tread, the conflict of arms, the din of battle; we feel the quick pulse-beats of outraged justice; we are ready to take our places under "Old Glory." REV. HANNAH IS RIGHT The Valdosta Times waxed wrathy over the speech of Rev. Hannah (a colored minister of that city) in which he cited several causes for discontent and unrest now manifesting themselves among Negroes. We used the word "manifesting" adroitly, because, this discontent has obtained in the minds of our people since the earliest light of ambition and manhood outlook broke in upon our lives. The good preacher has it right, however, The Negro has not been dealt with fairly by his white neighbors in the South. This "griference," as the Times calls it, has been sounded and asserted before, but has had little attention paid to it because he has had no basis upon which to make his voice of protest heard. Because of a super-abundance of labor at low cost, Negroes in any number could be had for any class of labor. It was neither sensible business-like nor necessary to listen to protests or dicker about wages,—the Negro laborer has been helpless before his employer. He never learned the art of labor organization, that powerful weapon of labor,—and his economic condition has always been so low that he could not have used organized power, if he had had it. The first opportunity for general protest has come in this so-called "industrial vacuum" which war conditions have brought to the North. He is having his first taste of industrial freedom. He is learning that there is such a thing as the labor market, that the law of supply and demand operates there, and that capital cannot long recognize the color line in business. Cash is one thing, sentiment another. The movement of Negroes to the northern labor market is in accordance with natural physical laws—a sort of equalization of pressures, an equilibrium of forces. The economic surplus is shifted to the "low pressure" area. The Times "blowed weak" on the item of lynching. "The remark of the good preacher struck a sore spot here, and was unanswerable. The Times, in substance, says "You oughtn't blame us for lynching, the brutes de-served it; you ought to help us get rid of 'em." This, in spite of the fundamental law of the great constitution, which guarantees the "due Process of law" and "fair and impartial trial" problems. Most people, white people, of the South know that the foreigner, while perhaps, efficient as a laborer is not satisfactory to the southerner's point of view. The foreigner comes to American industry with a mind to, as soon as possible, become an employer of labor, himself. The history of such experiments overwhelmingly bears this out. How many individuals or groups of foreign laborers are now to be found anywhere in the South? We know of none. But we know scores of individual foreigners in the South, who came here poor, but who are now business competitors with the white men of the South. That's the record of foreign laborers in the South. They are here not to earn reputation as honest, conscientious and reliable laborers for the white man, but to become his competitors. Their temperament is not that of a laborer, from beginning; they do common labor, temporarily, only as a means to an end. Their thrift, their ingenuity, their success are well-known. Valdosta has no foreign common labor, it has some foreign business man. It has some foreign business here. It is hard to find a satisfactory refutation of the right, and the good doctor Hannah was about right. YAMAGRAW CENTRE Easter Sunday, at Joochird and Lumber Stg. in Yarmcraw, will be opened Yamacraw Centre—an agency devoted to neighborhood social alliances conducted by the Urban League. In next week workers will be busy putting things in shape for the opening. It is significant that such a work should commence on Easter. It will be particularly and directly under the influence of the Sunshine Workers, who body is able led by Mrs. Pachel Mc. who has wrought such splendid benefits in the boys at the Jurassic Park. The Urban League believes it is flinging wide the door of opportunity to hundreds, yea, thousands, of souls to whom that door has been closed hitherto. A house of seven rooms has been renovated and furnished at considerable expense; it will be managed by a matron who will live on the premises. It is planned to make this place a real "centre," for all the people in that section who may need its good offices. A Sunday school is already being conducted, and has been for several months, under two competent and devoted young ladies; a sewing club for girls and a boy's club is already being conducted, with meetings every Thursday afternoon; a free clinic for charity cases will be conducted; some playground equipment will be installed in the yards; mothers' meetings will be organized; a free kindergarten will be established; and the various clubs working in connection with the churches and other organizations of the section will hold their sessions there. Xanacraw Centre is expected to be an extremely busy place; it is expected to throw its light of inspiration over the whole large area; its rays are going to penetrate the squator and deprivacy which hark there; its beneficial influence is going to save many a wayward character and feed many a hungry soul. It will do incalculable and invaluable good. It will teach many persons, who do not need its ministrations themselves, their duty to other people who have had less light, less opportunity—than they; it will point the way of salvation and reform for our people; it will be an example unto those who have no charity and altruism. The public at large is invited to enlist in the service there. There is a world of work to be done in the way of rescue. There is a task for every willing hand. It is our task to our fellow creatures—to our race—to join in the cause of uplift. It is unworthy of any of us to shirk or evade the glaring responsibility and plain duty. The Urban League, through Yamacraw Centre, affords you the place and the opportunity to square up for your past negligence and indifference toward the unfortunate; it gives you the chance to make amends and to do some real constructive race work. Will you heed the call? Will you rise to the bigness of heart and spirit and make some sacrifice, some self-denial for the benefit of your less fortunate brethren and sisters, who, merely accidently, find themselves below you, socially, economically and spiritually? We believe you will. "Think on these things." HEALTH EDUCATION WEEK The Urban League Health Committee, headed by Mr. D. J. Scott, is busy organizing all the forces of the city into a federation for the observance of National Health Week, April 22-28th Addresses on health topics will be made at all the churches, Sunday April 22; meetings will be held at various points in the city, the speaking taking place from automobiles; a free clinic for babies will be held at Yamacraw Center on Wednesday April 25; a grand mass meeting on Friday night April 26th at St. Phillip church. The City Health Department, thru Dr. Brummer, the Women's Federation and other agencies and organizations including the Ministers' Union, insurance companies, Medical Association, among our own people, are taking active parts in the plans. Health is related to every phase of the life of the people. In his address before the college assembly at the recent 50th anniversary celebration of the founding of Howard University, in Washington, D. C., Dr. C. V. Roman, splendid and scholarly man that he is, reached the following conclusion: "Health problems begin with the souls and not with the bodies of men. Sanitation is but a reflect of cerebration and hygiene is a matter of appetite and instinct, impulse and conduct. Health is to be measured in terms of psychology rather than in terms of physiology. What a man thinks is more fateful than what he eats. He sustains his body by what he eats, but he is what he thinks. A man has a body but is a soul. Physical condition is made of marred by physical and social conditions. "The key to the mortality table is to be found in the educational, economical and political situation. Progress in sanitation and health is a reciprocal factor of progress in liberty, virtue and intelligence * * * Length of days is yet the reward of wisdom. Science unites with religion in predicting a short life for the wicked and violent." Dr. Roman has epitomized and enunciated the true doctrine of the causes of ill-health and death and the inevitable laws whose observance will prevent disease and postpone death to its proper place in the schedule of human careers. Education for right living is, the great principle announced.—Ignorance the great cause.—Education the great cure. The duty of every individual, every official and every public spirited civic body and organization is plain. All should enter upon Health Week with the same zest which manifested itself during the recent successful Clean-Up campaign. We cleaned many streets, lanes and alleys which had been for months, may be years, littered with waste and rubbish, unsightly, and unsanitary, a menace to health, baneful of public morals and making civic beauty impossible. We must follow up this work with an intensive Health Campaign. The coll, as it were, is prepared for sowing the seed of Health Education. The two propositions are kindred and inseparable. Do not let any one make the mistake of loading upon the few willing and patient enthusiasts all the detail and responsibility. The call and appeal is made to every man woman and child to share the burden of better health, better housing and a more beautiful city. I finally, we should learn to support and co-operate with the Board of Health and the Health Officer in their endeavors to have all health measures and health regulations, intelligently and strictly observed. To fail to enlist means deprivation and death,—to do so means life and health—Happiness, Beauty and Physical Efficiency and Preparedness for the life-struggles. URBAN LEAGUE NOTES During the week many servicable and valuable household articles, contributed by various ladies for the purpose of equipping Yamacraw Centre, have been moved to the-place.

F. D. Tucker, Cashler Among the Masons The ceremonies of Masonry are uplifting and inspiring. The degrees in Masonry are steps in knowledge and morality. This is the month of social reunions. Let the good work go on. Be a good ritualist and a true man, and then you will be a real Mason. Our Masonic character will be measured by our actions, not by our words. "In all your actions, keep eternity in view," and you cannot materially err. The Tie That Binds Masonry is indeed the tie that binds. The cords are invisible, but none the less real. For, say what you will, be as skeptical as you may, Masons are drawn to one another in bonds of sympathy and love. Of course there are indifferent Masons—there are even bad Masons. But, as a rule, and with very few exceptions—one Mason is attracted to another, whether in slight or in great degree. Strangers may meet and become acquainted in the most causal way, and on learning accidently or or otherwise, that each is a Mason, the handclasp becomes warmer, the light in the eye becomes brighter, the feeling in the heart becomes more sympathetic. They are no longer strangers—they are brethren, having knelt at the same altar, and assumed the same obligations There is, indeed, a feeling of actual kindship, that cannot fail to find expression in look or word. Let us endeavor at all times and in every way, to strengthen and deepen this feeling of brotherhood. It will do much to cement friendship, and hasten the advent of that great day when all men shall be brothers, with God as their common Father and Love the golden chain that unites all hearts. We often long for the glory we hope to attain in the life to come. It is better to seek for glory here then you will fear no evil when you "walk through the valley of the shadow of death." thus emerging from darkness into light. * a a Masonic friendship is founded upon brotherly love. If it is so founded, mi-fortune and disaster cannot weaken nor destroy it. It is concreted in David and Jonathan. When the crucial test comes it is not found wanting. When brother is in want or distress, then it empiles itself in helpfulness. How pitiable is the condition of that Mason who lies down when his brother is set upon by enemies. Love is not only the strongest and best thing on earth, but it is the only emotion that prevails in heaven.—Masonic Home Journal. ```markdown ``` The great cause of real Masonry, my brothers, and I do not mean some little sick and death benefit society or burial club, but true Masonry, has long ago passed on up to the high chancery court of public opinion embracing the best and purest ideals not only of our state and country, but also of the whole civilized and christianized world wherever the gospel of the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man has erected her sacred altars forever dedicated and consecrated to liberty, truth and justice by the blood and brawn of the enlightened millions of earth, irrespective of race, creed or color, ye even to the supreme tribunal of eternity, and at every bar of equity whether among men or angels the unanimous verdict has always been in her favor. But in our attempts to promulgate among our members the teachings and principles of true Masonry and to insist our carrying out as a grand lodge in this state and juridiction the great work which fundamentally and essentially belongs to Masonry, I have found and no doubt you, my brethren, have also that one cannot make a real success without making at the same time real enemies; that you cannot hold a strong position without creating strong opposition, and that you will not seem right to any if you do not seem wrong to many; and the greater your force of character the more will you force others to demonstrate their differing characteristics. These are maxims that are true not only as to individuals, but they are also true in organizations. In proportion as Masonry shall remain true to her own history and destiny, in like ratio will other organizations illustrate their differences from that order. Brethren, Masonry is too old, and too firmly established in the hearts and affections of its true members for it to try now to copy and other society. Its achievements among men and nations have become too closely allied to all that is grand and noble in human history, and it promises in and of itself too much in human destiny to seek now. to take on what has always been foreign to its nature and character; O masters, brothers, in these latter days of booins and spread-eagleism may we have the moral courage and faith in the final conquest of truth to preserve in its integrity this grand old order whose landmarks throughout the ages have withstood the violence of wars, the overthrow of empires and all the fearful tragedies of both written and unwritten history; and hand it down to our children and our children's children unscarred by mercenary considerations, pure and undefiled, and unshaken amid the whirlwinds of revolution as well as amid those less noisy but even more destructive changes that undermining so many strongholds of faith and citadels of truth, and even attacking the temples of religion and seeking to tear them from their mighty foundations! Dr. C. C. Johnson, G. M. South Carolina HARDSTEW VISITS GEORGIA AND SOUTH CAROLINA Statesboro, Ga.—It was Silas X. Floyd of Augusta who said "It is good to be in Georgia when the sun is shining hot," and I agree with him about that, but he has never said any thing about when the sun is not shining hot, and the winter has carpeted the carc with white, and a fellow is made to go in a trot in order to keep warm. There is not much of that in Georgia. I come to you this week feeling that I have lied to see a great day, because I have touched many educators and many educational institutions. These are on the map, and they just make the world know that the members of our race are like others. They are the mills that turn out thinkers, and these thinkers are just making others know that they are thinkers. I wrote you last from Miami, Fla., and then I had on my "causing" paint, although I did not do much of it out in church, but I thought it just the same, and you don't blame me. Some men deserve to be where the wind was man at the head of the school, and never known to blow. But then I am to talk about education this week, and you will please listen to me until I am through with this letter. I went to Jacksonville and had the pleasure of being met by Prof. John A. Gregg, president of Edward Waters college, this will cause you to think that I am a big man to start when college presidents will come down to meet and then tote me around through the streets in their cars. Well this is no joke. Dr. Gregg is one of the strongest men in the A. M. E. church. Now these are the men who are being talked about in the A. M. E. church and should be elevated, John A. Gregg, R. H. Singleton, W. A. Fountain. They are good men, educated men, and will make good bi-hops. Let them be elected. Prof. N. W. Collier was out of town, so my time was spent with Dr. Gregg. He is a fine man. He has been 'to Africa and served his people there well. Then I went over to Orangeburg, S. C., to be with Dr. Robert Shaw Wilkinson, president of the State College of that place. They have a fine set of young people there, and they are getting ready to take their places in this world of thinkers. They have the right then associated with him are strong, well trained men and women. They have about 1,000 students there. Prof. Wilkinson was just born for an educator and he is one in every particular. He graduated from the best schools in the country, and then he took up school work. He taught one time in the State University, Louisville, Ky., and then returned to his state, and took up work in the college where he served as an ordinary professor until a change came and he was right there well qualified, well prepared to take hold of the work. He was elected and has made wonderful progress in the school. South Carolina recognizes that its owes an education to its citizens, and the young men and women of our race feel that they owe the state a man, a woman. They are doing that. I talked with many of the teachers and the people there. Called to see Mrs. Wilkinson in her class of domestic science. I have never been able to understand just what this is, but I do know she was teaching the girls how to cook, and Mrs. Davis was teaching them how to use the needle, and these are things worth doing and worth knowing. It is nice to see and hear these people in this place. From there I went to Denmark, and was met by a boy from the Voorhees Industrial college. This school was founded by a young woman, fresh from Tuskegee Institute, who had imbibed the push from the late Dr. Booker T. Washington. She was a woman every juch of her. Miss Elizabeth E. Wright. She had another strong woman right by her side. Miss Jessie Dorsey of Ohio who is now Mrs. Jessie Green of Detroit, Mich. Then there was Prof. Martin A. Menafee, right from Tuskegee, who remained at the school until he was ripe enough to pluck, and he also had the Washington idea of doing things. He took up the work by the side of Miss Wright. He was treasurer, and a good one at that. When Miss Wright died, he just took up the work and has carried it on. His life, his soul, his all is in this work. Spending a day or two around the school, you will see wonderful and great work. I will not tell ou all about them. Prof. J. O. Thomas, is principal, and there are associated with him able men and women, and I cannot tell you about them all. I then made it into Savannah, and visited the office of The Tribune, and asked the editor to let me write just a little more for him. He not only said he would permit me to write, but would raise my salary, and it was at once raised, so you are going to hear from me often, because I am a salary writer. I did not remain there long; because Dr. C. C. Middleton came along in his horseless carriage and toted me over to the Cuyler street public school, and that is really some school. Savannah believes in doing things right. At the head of this school is Prof. Hubert, and he is some educator. It seems that the whole Hubert family are to be in the school business. Z. T. Hubert is president of Jackson College, in Mississippi; and then, there is another one at the head of the school or one of the professors in Orangeburg, the state college; and one I am not talking about. This is a school, and one you talk about. I did not get to see the other schools, but I am going to spend a day looking into the schools when I come back, and you may expect something from me. I remained there several hours and then got on the Central of Georgia for this place where I am writing to you today. This is a school that is destined to do good work, and much credit is due the president. It is the Statesboro High and Industrial school and at the head stands Prof. William James, who has started from the ground and worked his way to the top. He has been in the school work almost since he entered the world. He is one of the young men of the race earning his way in life and he will live in the hearts of the people. In this school are to be found about 275 young men and women struggling for an education. Associated with him is to found his wife, who is right by his side at all times. She is a worker, and is interested in the work of her husband as well as the boys and girls. But I must tell you about the teachers. Money is scarce at this place and those who are working are doing it largely because of the love they have for our young people. There is Mrs. Lela McAlden, a graduate from Atlanta University, and a worker. She is in charge of the high school work, and in this she knows her business. Her home is in Atlanta, Ga. I would mention by her side, Mrs. Julia Armstrong-Bryant. She is a trained woman and has been connected with the work for five years, and has just married a few days ago. Her husband is Clarence Bryant, and he filled a responsible position in the city The latest addition to the school is a young woman from Meridian, Miss Pearl Jordan. Her mother died when she was a tot but her father took charge of her, together with her older sisters, and put them through school. He told her that she would be prepared to do things in this busy world. He said "Daughter the world is not asking you who your father was," or your mother, or what could they do, but it is demanding to know what you can do, and unless you can measure up, you had just as well get off the earth today." That stuck with her, and she studied hard with that before her night and day. She graduated with honors, and now she is giving her time and attention to this school. She is the matron, in charge of the large number of girls, and is devoting her life to training them. This is not a school with a mint behind it, but is living and doing its work well. I have known her myself since she was knee-high-to-a ginger cake. She is able to do good work and is doing it there. She is devoted to her girls. I shall have more to say in my next letter. I am now going to Tennessee, and from there to Virginia, and Editor Johnson presented me with sixty-five cents to go North and write up the North. I think that money is to pay my railroad fare, street car fare, back fare and board me. You will hear from me from some of your friends who have gone North. Wait until the next. C. J. Hardstew.

C., April 4—Echoes of the recent celebration of the Festival of the Mardi Gras still linger pleasantly in the ears of social Washington. The spectacular function was held in the immense Convention hall and more than 2,000 persons crowded into the scintillating arena. The affair, conceded on all hands, to have been the largest, finest and most unique assemblage of its kind ever held in the nation's capitol was held for the benefit of the building fund of the Colored Young Women's Christian Association, and is now firmly established as an annual event. Financially, as well as artistically and in providing genuine enjoyment, the 1917 Mardi Gras was a phenomenal success. With returns still incomplete, the tidy sum of $600 clear of all expenses has been turned into the Y. W. G. A.s building fund and the frue-tees are greatly rejoiced thereat. The Madri Gras as a brilliant spectacle has had no equal in this community, and would have done credit to the New Orleans originators of the mighty festival. The hall was lighted by a myriad of electric bulbs. The costumes of the characters were true to life, typifying every phase of human life of today and of the manifold personages of history and romance. With the vast assemblage whirling to the inspiring strain of L. M. Brown's orchestra of 40 pieces, and the fashion hoxes filled with handsomely gowned women and gallant men in evening dress, enshrouded in lavish decorations of flowers, flags and ensigns, the picture was one, that "no artist could paint." Confetti, streamers, and all of the paraphernalla of fun and frolic were there to drive away "parking care." A delightful diversion of the midnight hour was the artistic fancy dancing of Misses Lucile Moore and Hortense Gray, who performed a series of terpsichorean evolutions worthy of a Ruth St. Denis or an Aida Overton Walker. * * * Following up a suggestion made by us in a local journal last November, a committee of representative citizens met at the home of Judge Robert H. Terrell, last Sunday afternoon, and formulated plans for a birthday dinner in honor of Former Governor P. B. S. Pinchback, who was chief executive of Loulana in the reconstruction period, and who is now approaching his 80th milestone. The affair will be a large one and all that can be reached are anxious to do honor to last of the "Old Guard" and it is expected that the diners will test the capacity of any hall available and tax to their utmost the resources of any caterer in the District. Odd Fellows hall has been selected and the date has been set for about the 17th of May, the Governor's natal day. Governor Pinchback, with his accomplished wife, has made his home in this city since his retirement from the internal revenue service in New York. --- The First Separate Battalion, the premier unit of the District National Guard, is on duty at the vital spots of the nation's capitol Campanies B and C have relieved the 2nd Cavalry at the Washington acqueduct.

The Quality Amusement Company with a picked company, will present the Cohan musical comedy "Fifty Miles from Boston" all next week at the Howard. The ladies' orchestra, directed by Mrs. Pearl Gibson, closed their nine week's engagement at the Howard Sunday night and returned to New York City. Headed by Lieut E. R. Galther, president, the Boosters and Knockers attended the Gayet Theatre in a body Tuesday night, to do honor to their friend and co-member, S. H. Dudley, appearing there in connection with Dave Marion's "World of Frolic." The party numbered 60. "Negro Health Week" is to be observed in this city, under the auspices of the Medico-Chirurgical Society, of which Dr. G. W. Cahaniss is president. Tentative plans have been laid for the holding of a number of mass meetings in different sections of the District, in accord with the system worked out by the promoting authorities at Tuskegee Institute. Prof. Charles M. Thomas, LL.B., instructor at the Miner Normal School and president of the Colored Teachers' Association of the District, contributed to last Sunday's issue of the Washington's Post a stirring poem entitled "To Arms; To Arms!" noting the danger threatens, and urging all to answer to the nation's call for aid in the war that impends. Prof. Thomas is one of the race's most scholarly men and his thrilling poem voices the sentiments of the thoughtful members of the race everywhere. --- The newly-organized Harriet Tubman branch of the District of Columbia Red Cross held a notable meeting Tuesday night at Lincoln Temple. Addresses were delivered by Rev. Dr. John Van Schalck, president of the Board of Education and vice chairman of the Washington Chapter, Red Cross, and Miss Magel T. Boardman, executive officer of the National Red Cross. Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, the eminent lecturer and suffragist, spoke in Cincinnati, O., March 29. Ascore or more of the progressive women of Cincinnati participated in the function. Prof. W. E. B. DuBois, editor of the Crisis, New York City, has been spending a few days here on business connected with his paper and with the Atlanta University. Prof. DuBois is mentioned as a possible candidate for the presidency of Howard University, to be vacated in June 1918. John S. Brent, the first colored man to be a member of the fire department of the district, is dead at the age of seventy-three. He was once a corporal in the 5th Massachusetts Cavalry. While in the fire service, he saved the lives of members of the family of then Secretary of the Navy Tracy, after turning in an alarm with remarkable alertness.

Co. Savannah was singularly honored in insurance ranks this week when tlie lo- eal office’ of the Atlanta Mutual In- surange ‘Association secured three men on the leadership club of the company. The three successful local men are I. J. Biggins, C. E. Dobson and J. J. Pow- cll,who left bere Wednesday night for Atlanta in company with Local Super- intendent, J, C. Lindsay, where the new clu) will be formed by men from the three states, -Georgia, Alabama and Kentucky, where the company operates. The contest in which this city was thus bonored and which was begun five weeks ago, terminating last Mon- day, was one in which the agents of the company sought to write and to hold ten dollars worth of new business and to collect 100 per cent. in addition to their old business. It was a very spirited contest and Messrs. Bigsins, Hodson and Powell were pushed very closely for local honors. The new club which will be called the Agent Leaders Club, was organ- ized in Atlanta Thursday and Savan- nah was the only City outside of At- Janta which contributed more than one member, all the rest having a lone member while Atlanta will be repre- sented in the membership by 14. ‘The traveling expenses to the meet- ing and the entertainment of the mem- «bers while in Atlanta will be borne by the company. The local office of the cowpuny has done an excellent bust- ness for the past eighteen months, which is to be attributed to the close abd efticlent managerial supervision of Superintendent Lindsay. While in At- Janta Mr. Lindsay attended the meet- ing of the directors of the company which was held this week. U. 5.

He has been wounded five times, but is still undaunted. His advéntures started immediately he left America, when he caught a spy with three valises loaded with explosives with which the man was about to blow up the steamship. For this Kane received the red, white and blue salvage medal. Enlisting in the French Army in Au. gust 1914, he was in a battle four miles from Rheims when a German rfle bul- let traversed his leg. He received an- other led wound at Rhelgs in March 1915; when exhausted and cold he spent eighteen hours on the ground with nothing to eat. After being sent to Algeria for convalescence he next took part in the Dardanells expedition un- der General Gouraud. ‘The French advanced more than four ‘miles to Sedul Bahr, &bere they were foreed to entrench. Here he was twice wounded the fifth time before Mo- nastir and once by a shell fragment in the leg: He was attended by English doctors and his skull trepanned. He was wounded the fifth time before Monastire. At this place his arm was broken, 5 - Kané\was visited fn the hospital at ‘Saloniki by General Sarralt and was proposed for the military medal. .He has three colonial medals fer bravery and distinguished conduct. When fighting in the trenches. in France, Kane's captain told him to take two"men, cross “No Man’s Tand” and bring back a prisoner, as certain in- formation was needed. Kane went alone at night, and covered hy straw he lay quietly each time an fluminat- ing rocket exploded. We advanced slowly until yg finally jumped into the German trench, grabbed the first Teu- ton he saw and rushed back, Kang, who was born In Baton- Rouge, La, and isdbont te return to Salonika says: “I am seeking qnly to do my, duty.”— Age. . = i SO RR ee ew eae eee aa : reo. : ; VISIT THE——_— e = - Parisienne Beauty Parlors a with all conveniences for electrical treat- . an iment of the scalp, facial and body massage : 7 developing and manicuring as Soyee, MRS.
