SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, SATURDAY JULY 7, 1917 THE NEGRO "EXODUS" IN TEXAS Houston Post: Now that the Negro "exodus," which has excited so much alarm in the Southeast, has reached Texas, readers of the Post will recall that for more than a year past, this newspaper has pointed out the certainty that Texas would have t he same problem to face. The problem is here and it will have to be faced, and the Post feels thoroughly qualified to offer some suggestions to those who are striving to check the exodus. Nothing important is going to be accomplished through threats against labor agents...That would be merely superficial treatment of a deep-seated disease. Nothing is going to be accomplished through cajolery of the Negroes. They have been discussing the "exodus" and its fundamental causes for a long time. Nothing is going to be accomplished by representatives to the Negroes of the unlivable conditions in the North. The Negroes are pretty well informed upon that phase of the subject. The whole subject must be considered frankly and intelligently in all its phases, by the best white men in every city, town and county whose Negro labor is involved, and causes must be treated rather than effects. The North is in the market for Negro labor because the North needs labor, and the North is not going to be dissuaded from its efforts to procure it. That fact may as well be faced right in the beginning. There is no sentimentality about the labor question in the Northt. It is a matter of business...The war has increased it need and reduced its supply of labor and it is turning to the South, the only possible source of supply at this time. And the South will have to recognize the presence of a competitive bidder that is resourceful to the last degree. The Negro is not satisfied with the compensation he receives for his labor. In the rural districts especially he is not satisfied with the manner of his compensation, nor is he satisfied in all respects with what he gets for the money he is permitted to have. He wants more money for his work, he wants more money with greater regularity, and he wants to feel that he always receives the worth of his money. And nobody can blame the Negro for that. But even if this can be brought about throughout Texas, there still remains some things to be done If the voiceless unrest and discontent of the Negro are quieted, and it will require organization among the best white men to bring these things to pass. In the towns and cities, the Negroes are dissatisfied with their living condition. They are not disturbed about politics or social equality, but the insanitary surroundings amid which circumstances compel them to exist are unsatisfactory, and the white people owe it to their own welfare to improve those conditions. Our town landlords throughout the state have the idea that "anything is good enough for a nigger," and thousands are huddled in miserable shacks standing upon undrained ground, without sewerage, without water service, and without ordinary comforts and conveniences which are really essential to health. Even worse conditions obtain on many of the plantations, and added to all of the drawbacks common to the towns and cities is the other fact that the rural schools for Negrochildren where they exist at all are a joke. There are in Texas some 200,000 Negro children of scholastic age, the greater majority of whom live in the rural districts. The $1,500,000 of the state school board fund, which constitutes the Negroes' share, is for the greater part diverted to the white schools in most counties. This injustice causes great discontent that can be removed only when more and better school facilities are afforded the Negro children. Another cause of Negro discontent lies in the widely prevalent and largely justified belief among Negroes that there is one law for the white man and another law for the Negro. The instances in the court records of the state which prove this to be true are too numerous to be recited here, but the heavy penalties assessed against Negroes for petty offenses and the suspended sentences given to whites who commit offenses even so serious as murder afford abundant proof that there is abundant basis for the Negroes' feeling that there is no such thing as equality before the law. And added to, this unsavory condition is the widespread persecution of Negrees by petty peace officers upon, in many instances, fictitious charges, which is the result of the abominable fee system. The sullen resentment, that is not less sullen because it finds no vocal expression, caused by the prevalence of mob violence requires no discussion here, because the white people have long since realized what a dreadful blight such recurring outrages have placed upon the South. Until Southern white men adopt come measures calculated to stamp out lynching by punishing lynchers, Negro discontent in the South will not be removed. The business men of Texas who care now concerned about the Negro evodus must frankly consider these things in formulating ways and means to check the movement. They must actually make the well-being and protection of the Negroes their business. The fact that Negroes have suffered many wrongs is not due to antipathy, but to indifference. This indifference must give way to active interest, because it is manifestly impossible for the Negroes to protect them-clres. They must in all important respects trust to the white man's generous and kindly interest and active sense of justice. This interest and sense of justice exist in countless individual cases, but it must be consolidated and extended to the great body of Negro citizens. The South has in its more the 9,000,000 Negro citizens a labor asset of such potentiality that what it might do for the South is almost inconceivable. Dear with its shortcomings and help it, and it will return its gratitude in cheerful and willing effort; stir its ambition and increase its efficiency by merely one-half, and it will add $1,000,000,000 more annually to the wealth of the South; encourage and protect it against injustice, and its faith in the Southern white man can never be shaken by temptation from any source. It is always traceable, always responsive to friendly and sympathetic influences, patient above all other elements of humanity and willing to essay the hard tasks of the field for a modest share of the fruits of its toil. The twenty-fourth annual session of the Great Eastern district of the Baptist Sunday school convention and the second annual session of the B. Y. P. U. convention were held with the Zion Baptist Sunday school and B. Y. P. L. June 20—21. The sessions of the conventions were very interesting.—Miss Mae Stewart of Savannah spent a few days here last week with her art. Mrs. Fannie Gray. She sang several beautiful pieces at the convention. Miss Margaret Richardson entertained for Miss Stewart on the night of June 25th. Those present were Misses Fostena Sibley, Ora Belle Fisher, Ophelia Robinson, Luverta Clemmons, and Bertha Bacon, Messrs. A. B. Lee, John Fulton, John King and others.—Miss Marina Madison has returned from school and is spending the summer with her sister, Mrs. Smith—Miss Mae Stewart and Miss Margaret Richardson made a flying trip to Wayeroos The Baker Circle Aid Branch held its installation of officers Monday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Virginia Smith, 608 Henry street, west the following officers being installed by Rev. H. D. Butler; Mrs. M. C. Maxwell, president; Mrs. Hattie Brown, vice president; Mrs. Phoebe Nolan, secretary; Miss Fannie Anderson, treasurer; Mrs. Tena Timmons, chairman of finance; Mrs. Carrie King, chaplain; Mrs. Jennie Franklin, chairman of health; Mrs. Eradena Smith, clerk of order. Delightful refreshments were served. Mr. Robert B. Bryant, husband of Mrs. R. B. Bryant, formerly of this city but now living in New York, was very badly hurt at his work at Pier No. 41, New York City, on June 28th. He was taken to the French hospital for treatment. HANDSOME NEW CLUB-HOUSE INSPECTED BY VERY LARGE CROWDS Bazaar Affords Amusement for Hundreds Dedicatory Exercises Last Sunday Afternoon Very Impressively Carried Out—Various Clubs in Attendance Each Night Before a crowd of attractive spectators which packed the aisles and adjoining hallways, the balcony overlooking the streets, and every available corner of the handsome new auditorium, the Savannah Home Association opened its new $15,000 building with becoming dedicatory ceremonies last Sunday afternoon. Pres. E. H. Burke, with becoming grace and dignity, presided over the exercises. denies of the young men and women of the city. A commendable feature of the club life in this city is the reverence they pay to God and his church, by being prayed for once a year, and contributing to the churches. There may be features of the club life that is out of harmony with the spiritual, and moral standards of the church, but their coming to the churches once a year to be praised for efforts this The history of the organization from its birth, its successes and its trials, was given in a beautiful account by Mrs. Nathan Roberts. Addresses were made by Atty. J. G. Lemon, Mr. H. S. Scott, president Eureka Club and Pres. L. E. Williams of the Wage Earners Bank, which institution financed the beautiful structure. The dedication sermon was preached by the Rev. Dan Wright, who took as his subject, "Arise." The keynote of all the addresses was one of distinct compliment to the officers and membership of the association for their splendid achievement, their untiring zeal and their remarkably unselfish spirit and fellowship. All this week a brilliant bazaar has been in progress, the various clubs of the city taking the several nights in turn. Great crowds, taxing the building, have been in attendance.

Goodman The social clubs of the city play an important part in the community life and afford an outlet for the social ten- MOTORED FORM ATLANTA HERE IN TEN HOURS James P. Webb, one of the best known Negro automobile mechanics in the city, established a record last week by driving a Packard Six from Atlanta here in ten hours and forty-five minutes. The best previous time was eleven hours and 40 minutes. The distance between Atlanta and this city is 310. The average speed, which this well-known driver maintained for this trip, was approximately 32 miles per hour. On the trip, 45 minutes were lost in Macon, getting gasoline so early in the morning, and three short stops were made at Sandersville, Wayne-boro and Newington for oil. DEVOE—WELLS The residence of Mr. and Mrs. T. M. G. Wells was the scene of a beautiful wedding on Wednesday evening, June 20th, when their daughter, Miss Sadie Frances Wells, was united in marriage to Mr. Joseph L. Devco The house was most artistically decorated for the occasion. The walls were covered with bamboo and honey suckle vines. To the strains of the wedding march, played by Miss Seventa V. Mickens, the bride entered the parlor with her father, and had as her attendant, her sister, Miss Mazie Wells. Mr. John Devco, the groom's brother was best man. The bride was charming in her exquisite wedding robe of white chiffon draped skirt over over beautifully pointed lace. Her soft tulle veil was held in place with a wreath of orange blossoms and fell to the end of her court trailing of chiffon. She carried a bouquet of bride's roses. Miss Mazie Wells wore a most becoming frock of georgette reps over white silk, and carried a bouquet of pink roses. Mrs. T. M. G. Wells was gowned in black silk. Master Willie Wells carried the wedding ring on a cushion of blue satin. The bride's traveling suit was of champagne colored silk, with a Milan straw hat to match, trimmed in black velvet. The couple left the same evening for Washing. D. C., and from there to New Haven, Conn., their future home. They were the recipients of many hand some and useful presents from a large circle of friends. Prof. B. F. Jones, Jr., left on Monday for Danville, Ky., where he will visit his parents, Dr. and Mrs. Jones NUMBER 44 ASSOCIATION HAS FUL OPENING WEEK USE INSPECTED BY VERY CROWDS sement for Hundreds day Afternoon Very Impressively in Attendance Each Night dencies of the young men and women of the city. A commendable feature of the club life in this city is the reverence they pay to God and his church, by being prayed for once a year, and contributing to the churches. There may be features of the club life that is out of, harmony with the spiritual, and moral standards of the church, but their coming to the churches once a year to be prayed for, affords the church an opportunity to present the claims of Jesus Christ to many that it would not otherwise reach. The Savannah Home Association's new building is not only a credit to that particular association, but is a credit to the race. If the white people with all their advantages, need social clubs, great Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. buildings for their young people, how much more do our young people need such buildings. The above named building should be seen by every man and woman of our race in the city, and should inspire other organizations to do more than deposit membership dues in the bank for sick benefits, and funerals. This building should inspire our congregations to make their churches more beautiful and convenient, so as to attract more people into them. Now, since the young men have a splendid building of which we are all proud, let every one of them feel obligated to God and His cause and help fill the churches each Sunday with their presence. Local Club Trims Charleston Team OVERHOMERS TOOK ONLY ONE SET OUT OF FIVE The Savannah delegation of tennis players returned from Charleston early Thursday morning. The games in Charleston were very interesting and closely contested. On the 3rd, Mr. Mickey the popular and enterprising undertaker, defeated Mr. DesVerney of the Savannah team in the singles. Messrs Lewis and Morrison, and Robinson and Middleton, played the only other match on the 3rd, which resulted in a tie the match being called on account of darkness. On the fourth, Messrs. Jones and DesVerney defeated Messrs Mickey and Lawrence and Messrs Powell and Swinton in two very interesting double matches. In the other matches of the fourth, Messrs. Mickey and Lawrence were defeated by Robinson and Middleton of Savannah. The Savannah contingent were loud in their praises of Charleston's hospitality, stating that they had heard of, but had never seen such hospitality. They were guests of the Pioneer Tennis Club Monday night at a dinner and whist party. Tuesday and Wednesday nights at dances, while during the stay Mr. Mickey gave them free-use of two of his justly popular limousines which form part of his splendid equipment in the flourishing undertaking business which he and his brother direct. It is to be hoped that these matches are but the forerunners of others which in time will include tennis players from all over the South. PASSES MEDICAL EXAMINATION FOR OFFICERS RESERVE CORPS During the week, Dr. W. A. Harris and Dr. C. C. Middleton received word from the War Department at Washington, D. C., that they had successfully passed the recent examination held here for commissions in the medical reserve corps. They were notified to hold themselves in readiness for active service in the army. They are the first Negro doctors of the state to pass the examination for this department. Prof. John McIntosh left Monday for Washington, D. C., to visit his daughter, Mrs. Etta Judkins. All-White Hats Also Come to Accompany Them SLEEELESS COAT FOR SPORTS New York, June 29.—Crisp, white frocks have always been and will always be one of the essentials of the hot weather wardrobe. No matter what style may be in vogue, or what colors especially favored, white will always be brought out as soon as it becomes unbearably hot, and the pretty embroidered voiles, organdies, handkerchief linens and batistes are always to be counted on as the mainstays for these frocks. A charming summer model has a long, straight tunic of flouncing hanging well below the knees over a plain foundation finished with a deep hem. The fulness of the tunic is laid in soft J. HOCALS A Hot Weather'Frock of Embroided Batiste pleats at the waist line and topped by a shaped belt pointed in front like the top of the soft vest in the blouse. A long collar which extends midway down the front is one of the attractive features of the summery model which is illustrated here. White Hats Appear The time has come only for white frocks but for white hats, too. This season there are all kinds of white hats, most of them entirely white, while now and again a brim has an underfacing of black or navy blue, or a rolled-up brim displays a touch of color against the white. The hats of white crepe are very fashionable and ever so dainty. Some are made altogether of crepe with a trimming fo gross-grain ribbon or of white soutache worked out in some braiding design on brim or crown. Some of the hats are made with crowns of white satin and straight wide brims O. MCCALL or crepe or net. flowers and fine feathers are used by way of decoration in some instances. Another type of white hat in vogue is the small close-feather turban which is very attractive to wear with white dresses. There are veils, too, in infinite variety to complement all kinds of summer hats. A new development in sports clothes is the sleeveless coat, usually made of wool jersey in the gay colors so popular for sports. These and a bright touch to the all-white costume and furnish that dash and gaity which makes the sports clothes for the country so thoroughly irresistible. The new sleeveless coats are about hip length, and are cut on the same simple loose-fitting lines that characterize all sports coats. They are usually belted and provided with pockets, both for signs for those who may have tired of the coin dots. We make a specialty of Cleaning, Pressing and Repairing Clothes.

With shirtwaists of white wash silk or crepe de Chine, and skirts of creme serge or silk, the wool jersey coats in light blue, green or rose color provide a striking contrast which cannot fail to please. Not unlike the sleeveless coat is the long overblouse worn over a guippe and hanging over the skirt in peplum fashion. One of these is illustrated here forming as summer costume with a simple gathered skirt. The material is organdie, and the trimming filet lace. Wide bands of filet lace connect the front and back panels of the overblouse simulating large pockets over the hips. A belt which is half organdie and half lace marks the waistline, and the novel outline o fthe neck is another feature which contributes to the unmistakable originality of the design. Organdie is used very freely for the warm-weather frock and certainly there is nothing that looks daintier or cooler. Pale shades of green and pink are as popular as white. A quaint, old-fashioned air perrades the frock made entirely of organdie and trimmed with many tiny ruffles of the same material. The ruffles are placed in rows at the sides of the skirt, and the bodice is topped with a fichu edged with narrow ruffles in some of the most attractive models. Navy-blue taffeta is coming back into its own for the dark silk frock to wear on the cooler summer days. These dresses are trimmed with heavy silk stitching, and the more elaborate ones with beads and hand embroidery. The slightly fitted bodice with a straight gathered skirt is again in vogue for this type of frock. Collars of light pink, pale blue, white, or checked silk finish most of these frocks, many of which are made with the sleeves or some portion of the waist of blue Georgette to match the taffeta. Only by foulard is taffeta rivaled, for the foulard dress which was introduced in the spring is still holding sway.

June 25—The dedicatory exercises held yesterday at Wilberforce University in dedicating the new Tawawa Hospital, marked an epochal period in the history of the institution. When the services closed, the doors were opened for visitors, they were surprised to find one of the prettiest and most modern hospitals in Southern Ohio. Great preparations had been made for the occasion and visiting doctors from Dayton, Springfield, Columbus, Cincinnati and Xenia sat on the platform and participated in the exercises Superintendent Wm. A. Joiner was successful in securing a noted and well known physician of the country, Dr. Daniel H. Williams, of Chicago, to deliver the address. Dr. Williams is known by the leading physicians of this country and abroad and earned his reputation by performing a very difficult operation on the heart of a patient in Chicago and saved his life. Dr. William A. Galloway, president of the C. N. and I. Board and the members of the board, Dr. B. A. Rose, Dayton; Dr. R. M. Vaughn, Dr. W. J. Woodlin and Dr. Wm. A. Method, of Columbus; Dr. R. E. Pettiford and Dr. S. J. Jordan, of Springfield, Dr. S. Maria S. Steward, Willberforce, and Dr. W. H. Hawkins, Dr. Wm. T. Durnell, of Xenia, and others occupied seats on the platform. Dr. Galloway presided and in his course of remarks stated the purpose of the meeting, gave a brief history of the plan inaugurated some years ago for the erection of the building, stated that the name Tawawa was an Indian name and meant "sweet water." He laid considerable stress on the necessity of hospitals and of the great work performed by the Red Cross So- cieties, that this society could not do creditable work in caring for the men who were soon to take part in the great war, unless hospitals were established and maintained by the people. He paid a very high compliment to the speaker, Dr. Williams and said that he was recognized by the most eminent physicians of the country as one of the most skillful surgeon of the age, and it gave him pleasure to introduce him to deliver the dedicatory address. Dr. Williams was received with hearty applause and expressed his sincere thanks for the high privilege of addressing the audience on such an important occasion. "When I think of the spirit of the great African Methodist Episcopal church, said he, "the part it played in the Negro's religious emancipation, the influence it has exerted in educating the colored youth of the country, the part plaid in Negro leadership, it would make any one proud to receive an invitation to participate in the dedication of one of the buildings of so great an institution. "The religious emancipation of the Negro was brought about by the sainted Richard Allen, who, directed by God, established the great African Methodist Episcopal Church, which his people could worship with freedom from east in the sanctuary of God, and where the gospel of Christ, unharmed, might be preached in its fullness, and its richness to all persons, without regard to race or color. In dedicating the Tawawa Hospital the church, thru the honorable board of trustees of this school, has taken another forward step in erecting a hospital at Wilberforce University, one of the greatest centers in the world where Negro youth is trained for the highest forms of thought THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE. SATURDAY JULY 7, 1917 men of such high character composing her board of trustees. Much praise must be given Mr. William A. Joiner, superintendent, and Miss Rountree, for their invaluable services in fostering the Tawawa Hospital idea." The inspiration of this church thru Provident Hospital, has disseminated the hospital idea, and today there are ninety-five colored hospitals in the United States where approximately three hundred student doctors have served as internes, and in 1910, two thousand, four hundred and thirty-five colored women had been trained as scientific nurses. The majority of the colored hospitals were organized to care for the sick and indigent of their communities, and in that they have performed an invaluable service to their community and in the state. In Chicago alone, there are twenty-four colored nurses working as members of the Chicago Health Department, the Visiting Nurses Association and as Field Nurses in the Chicago Public schools. Let us hope that the establishment of Tawawa Hospital at Wilberforce will add renewed vigor to the awakening of Negro leadership in medicine for the very best highest form of professional and research service, for social and advance of our race and for the general progress of the human race." The closing address was made by Supt. Wm. A. Joiner who thanked Dr. Galfoway and the members of the trustee board for the deep interest shown in the erection of the building. He spoke of the carpentry work which was done by the students, also of the plumbing department and blacksmith work, calling attention to the work and life. This is of great significance, and Wilberforce should be congratulated for having Dr. W. A. Galloway, and done by the boys of this department and asked the visitors to compare the work with that which had come from factories who employed skilled labor. At the conclusion of the exercises the audience was taken to the building and shown through the various departments by Miss Rountree, who is a graduate of Provident Hospital in Chicago and before coming to take charge of nurse training, served in her chosen profession under Dr. Williams. —Zenia Gazette. MASONIC How to Increase Interest How to increase attendance at lodge communications is a question of living and vital interest. A few suggestions along this line may be of value. The thoughts here expressed are by one who has had twenty-nine years' experience as Master and seven years as Grand Master. 1. Open and close the lodge promptly. Do not allow long-winded speeches, dilatory motions and useless argument. In a courteous and taftful way, let the Master rule and govern his lodge so that the brethren will not be kept too late, and so that business and work will not drag and become tiresome. Keep things moving. 2. Let the lodge room be furnished as tastefully as possible. If practicable, have music. If not, let the brethren join in singing some well-known Masonic hymn, in opening and closing, and during degree work. 3. Make the communications interesting. If there be work, let it be done accurately and impressively. If not, have short addresses on Masonic subjects by qualified brethren. Have an occasional social evening, inviting the ladies, and serve light refreshments. Cultivate the social feeling at all times. 1. Let the officers invite the brethren to be present. Do this cordially and earnestly. A day or two before each communication, when meeting a brother on the street, remind him of the lodge and urge him to attend the communication. Assure him of a pleasant and profitable time, and let him understand that his presence will be appreciated. 2. Give every member work to do if possible. Spread the cement. Appoint as many as possible on committees, give them places in the degree work, call on them for short talks, and in every way make them feel that their presence is noted and their services are needed. 6. Before the lodge opens, the officers should mingle freely with the brethren, greet them cordially, express pleasure that they are present, and heartily invite them to come again. Vibiting brethren should be especially welcomed, made to feel at home, and introduced to the members of the lodge. 7. Encourage and urge the brethren to read Masonic literature, to post themselves on the law to perfect themselves in the work, and to become active and enthusiastic Masons. These are but a few suggestions. If faithfully carried out, splendid results are sure to follow. Masonry is a great power in the world, and there is yet much work for Masons to do. As sons of light, we should let our light shine, so that the world may know that we love light rather than darkness. --- Do not let small differences create animosity among Masons. We are all entitled to our honest convictions, and no one should quarrel with us on that account. Hold out your hand to the erring brother, and aid him to reformation if it be possible. Wealth and worldly honors are not considered in Masonry. It is the man alone that counts. "Character of a-Mason" In the Farmer's Almanac for 1823, published at Andover, Mass., the following article was printed under the above heading: "The real Mason is distinguished from the rest of mankind by the uniform, unrestrained rectitude of his conduct. Other men are honest in the fear of punishment which the law might inflict, they are religious in expectation of being rewarded or in dread of the devil in the next world. A Freemason would be just if there were no laws, human or divine, except those which are written in the heart by the finger of his Creator. "In every climate, under every religion, he is the same. He kneels before the universal throne of God in gratitude for his blessings he has received, and in humble solicitation for his future protection. He venerates the good men of all religions. He disturbs not the religion of others. He restrains his passions, because they cannot be indulged without injuring his neighbor or himself. He gives no offense, because he does not choose to be offended. He contracts no debt that he cannot discharge, because he is honest upon principle. He never utters a falsehood, because it is cowardly and infinitely beneath the dignity of a Free and Accepted Mason. NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITOL Washington, D. C., July 3.—The color-line, which has been rigidly drawn on the steamers of the Chesapeake and PAGE THREE Potomac Steamboat Company's line for a long time, has finally been broken. This line plies the Potomac, carrying passengers and freight, and makes all river points between Washington and Norfolk, Va. It is chartered under the laws of the state of Virginia. Ugly rumors became prevalent as to the company's attitude on the matter of accommodations for colored passengers in April, 1916, when the steamer "Majestic" was assigned to the river route. Charges that first-class fare was exacted of colored passengers, and that they were "jim-crowed"—assigned to quarters in the rear of the freight deck. They were denied access to the saloon, deck or cabin, and anything like a state-room was out of the question. Not only were the "jim-crow" quarters, into which the colored passengers were crowded, inadequate and uncomfortable, but the odors of the freight, redolent with fertilizer and whatnot, made the situation intolerable. When facts of a tangible nature could be obtained, a committee of nine citizens was organized, with William H. Henderson as chairman and formal protest was filed against this great injustice, to our people. Getting no satisfaction from communications forwarded to the Chesapeake and Potomac Steamboat Company, the committee took the matter up with the United States District Attorney, the Interstate Commerce Commission and the Corporation Commissioners of the State of Virginia, with headquarters, at Richmond. These agencies were appealed to in turn, and it was only when the last-named was reached did the committee find any authority clothed with competent jurisdiction. The company was amenable to the corporation commission of Virginia. The power that made the company could unmake it, and the complainants promptly asked that the C. and P Steamboat Company be ordered to comply with the United States laws on the subject of equal accommodations for first-class passengers on common carriers, or that their charter be forfeited. After considerable quibbling, hacking and filling on the part of the company, a hearing was arranged, to take place on board the steamer "Majestic" in the port of Washington. The chairman of the Corporation Commission of Virginia presided. The evidence was carefully taken. Mr. Henderson made out a case of discrimination on account of color, and the representatives of the C. and P. Company tried in vain to parry the sharp thrusts of the well-posted young colored man, who met calmly and convincingly every subterfuge, excuse or justification set up by the defendants in support of their nefarious practices.

Like the score of Negro men have been tortured, lynched and burned in the streets of East St. Louis, their wives and children made to suffer unthinkable pain, deprivation, death and destruction of their homes, many more may yet have to pay the great sacrifice. The greater group strength and superior numbers of that large element of brutalized and insanely-prejudiced white laborers, pricked past the breaking point by the keen competition, industrial and economic, of Negro labor recently migrated to their communities, feeling an innate superior right and encouraged and spurred on by a sense of community from the penalties of the law for their crimes against Negroes, will continue to make these ruthless and barbarous invasions on Negro life and property. It is this feeling of immunity from the penalties of the law for crimes committed upon the persons and property of Negro citizens which is at the basis of these bloody manifestations. American courts, municipal and state, have temperized to the point of encouragement, these brutes-in-human-forms mis-authope, in nearly every community, until they "lie in wait," as it were "with lifted teeth." to strike down with an assassin's fill stroke any Negro whose activity contravenes or counters their own. American public opinion is chaotic and demoralized and dead as respects the causes of the Negroes. There is no positive expression or act for sustaining any principle where the interest of Negro citizens alone are contemplated. The American character is decardent, atrophying from silently and passively suffering this curse, this national crime. The Soul of America is dying from repeated and continued inertia in a moral condition which demands positive, courageous handling. Can there be denial or issue of these indictments while America furnishes more lynchings than all the other civilized nations combined? Is there record that any other people is still so de-natured, de-humanized as to still actively engage at the pastimes of lynching human beings and the frolle of burning at the stake? It there any nature of crime to justify this common blood slaughter? There are few cities of size, especially at the South, whose streets have not been crimsoned with such blood at some time in the past; few whose nights' silence have not been broken by the wild, hideous shreks of the mobs panegyric mingled with the dying agonizing of its black victim; few whose balmy, tropical-scented zephyrs have not been corrupted and befoned by the odors of burning human flesh; few whose cloudless skies have not been dimmed by the oily fumes of black whetches. Does God still live and watch the soulless, conscienceeless behavior of men? Was man of a fact created in the image of God? Can the God-like descend beyond the depths of Divine Power to recall? Does His spirit always strive with man? Are not these performances nauseous to celestial observation? What does God think? What does He feel? What does He determine about it all? Disloyal and unbecoming as some may think it to ask, is it hat the very epitome of hypocrisy of the deepest dye, that the giant intellects and directors of our national life, civil, political and religious, can preach, from every hill-top and under every spire, the great doctrines of American liberty and opportunity, when twelve millions of the nation are made to suffer woes unworthy of-slaves and heathen? Is there a "big man," before the public today, who does not know the famous bloody histories of Atlanta, Cartersville, Wilmington, the Springfields, Waco, Statesboro, Palmetto, Memphis, East St. Louis, Gainesville, Monticello and a host of others? What a mochery has been the states' investigation of these outrages! What a jest the routine of trial! what a lie the pursuit of justice! Deploring the migration of Negro labor from the South, the Houston Post, (and may it be said to the wide credit of this paper, that it has published the only unreserved true and honest statement of facts in the case) apropos of the "voidless unrest and discontent which is drawing him to other parts of the country, rises to say, that "Town landlords have the idea that 'anything is good enough for a nigger,' and that there is 'abundant proof that there is abundant basis for the Negro's feeling that there is no such thing as equality before the law;" while the Savannah Morning News asks, "Would it not be the part of reason to look about us and find out why the Negro is so fixed in his determination to go elsewhere instead of arbitrarily seeking to stay his departure or to frigliten him into staying by picturing to him the disadvantages of the life he will have to live in the north? And is not this a problem which must be handled positively instead of negatively?" and concludes, "that this obligation is of most pressing immediacy." A year ago, the Macon Telegraph sounded the warning to the South, when it said the South obstinately and arbitrarily remained indifferent when "their very wealth (meaning Negro labor) was slipping through their fingers." Many weeks ago, The Tribune under title "The Remedy", pointed out that all these difficulties of migration, mob violence and the like were problems which the white South could solve by "Positive" action. In these days of national peril when the affairs of the nation and the spirit of the people are restive under the grave responsibilities of waging a great war with foreign foes, it is logical that the nation should be torn by internal dissention and civil and sectional strife. What America needs is unalloyed and unreserved unity on the part of every American. The Negro's loyalty to the stars and stripes is admitted—his eloquent answer is recorded in his response to the colors, to a past record in arms, and what not., But he is no real citizen, no freeman. "America is fighting for world democracy" and "for defense, protection and perpetuation of the American ideals of liberty and human right." We claim to be on the side of right and justice, and that God is for us. Can, then, we enter the war, "with clean hands," from behind a shadow of savagery and burning at the stake? Can we base our armed forces on democracy and liberty as against a background so replete with the heritage of barbarism and slavery? TRIUMPHANT JUSTICE Some Negroes, men and women, are triling, irresponsible, unreliable and all-honest—as are some white men, also. There may even be a greater ratio of this element as compared to the total population, among Negroes, than among whites. If so, its only logical and natural, considering the relative advantages of the two groups, which, it will be admitted are in averse ratio with their shortcomings. These are facts, and admitted; and as such, admit of no debate. They should not, then, be eternally brought forward as causes and excuses for the various manifectations of ill-will and lack of consideration accorded all Negroes hereabouts. No sooner is a proposition of race-relation-hip advanced, it may be an appeal for consideration of some kind for Negroes in general, further advancement, their education, their protection—than this bug-bear springs up. It is over-talked, time-worn, irrelevant and extraneous. A good many other more vulgar characterizations might worthily be applied to it—and epithets. We would, as usual, advance to the place from whence we started—get nowhere. Some Negro men and women, like a great many good white men and women are industrious, trustworthy, thrifty and intelligent. This will also admit of no doubt. Thousands of examples of the truth of it might be cited. The problems and issues of present day life should be determined and settled with a view to their relation to and effect upon the two elements of worthy folks. The unworthy should be controlled, the willing should be helped. That is their just consideration. The chief concern and thought of THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE, the people should be about the worthy in character and conduct. This brings us to the simple issue which this short article is designed to discuss: Worthy manhood and womanhood is entitled to respect, consideration in all things and to the widest opportunity for its self-improvement, in any free government. It should be legislated for—it should not be lumped or dumped into the group of the unworthy and along with that, legislated against. The species of class legislation, directed at the Negroes, now going the rounds of the South, is a clear manifestation of this inordinate and pert verse reasoning and attitude of the southern people—those who are active and alert in this line. These men are wrong—they have gone off on the wrong line, and are too hard headed to learn what is just and right, or righteous. The unusual conditions, which the present world-unrest has brought on, and will still bring on with increase severity, if the signs fall not, will come nearer than reason to bringing these men to their senses—or to other peoples' senses and ways of looking at things. It is going to be a right difficult thing to change the "leopard's spots," but it's going to be changed, because it must and because it's right. We repeat that, if the signs fail not, an entirely new way of looking at things will develop during the perilous period through which we are at present passing. The Negro man has taught the world a lesson in patience and forebearance—if he had not possessed these qualities in super-abundance he would not have survived—and these virtues have not forsaken him. He is keeping in line—watching and waiting—for the triumph of democracy, of right, of justice, of opportunity. RESOLUTIONS FROM SAVANNAH DISTRICT In placing these words on the pages of history to the memory of Mr. Henry C. Young, president of the Pilgrim Health and Life Ins. Col. who died June 28, we do so in mockness toward the will of our heavenly Father and in endearment to and admirable respect for this noble character which predominates at this sad occasion. His was a life of service, sacrifice, progressiveness, attainment and endearment. In respect to his christian affiliations, you could count on him. In respect to his fellow creatures, they would call on him and he would assist. In progressiveness he has taken small things and pulled them to monuments by his efforts for good. In respect to attainment, with an amble beginning, he has accumulated, saved and kept together his earnings, until today's mile-tone marks him a prominent character, a genius and a father of industry in the commercial world. Whenever and wherever ignorance and malice would rise, he was ever ready to crush them down. In respect to endearment, in his home, loving, true and tried husband and devoted father: in the church, a faithful deacon, a safe and trusted friend and brother. In his city, a loyal upright citizen respected wherever he appeared, and last but not least, in the Pilgrim Health and Life Ins. Co., as a policy holder and its president, he was one of the chief columns that supported and operated its prosperous affairs, that its branches are to the human family what youder mighty trees are to the birds of the air—yes, a rest a refuge, a consolation to all who come under its boughs. Therefore, he it Resolved: That in his demise we feel keenly the acknowledged separation which has pleased Almighty God, we commend his family and relatives to Him who does all things well. We loved him but Jesus loved him best. Be it further Resolved: That a copy of these resolutions be sent the family, a copy to the Georgia Baptist and one to the Savannah Tribune for publication. Be it further Resolved: That we who mean his departure strive to meet him in that land of eternal bliss, where there is no more sadness, no more parting but one eternal day. In servicable sympathy, The Clerical Force and Agents' Association of the Savannah District, Pilgrim Health and Life Insurance Co. A.B. Singfield, Dist. Mgr., and Gen. Supt. SUMMER CLASSES Summer school classes will be conducted at 608-81st street, west, for conditioned or non-promoted children in the public schools. Special instruction by Prof. R. W. Gadsden, of the East Broad street school. SATURDAY JULY 7. 1917 Fort Valley Summer School Closes Fort Valley Summer School Closes MRS. BOOKER T. WASHINGTON DELIVERS CLOSING ADDRESS Displays From Art and Agriculture Departments Excellent Fort Valley, Ga., July 2.—Tte Fifth session of the summer school at the Fort Valley Normal school came to a close Friday evening, June 29th. Mrs. Booker T. Washington, Tuskegee Institute, gave the closing address. The message Mrs. Washington brought was full of inspiration and instruction. She won the hearts of her audience and all were greatly pleased that they had the opportunity to hear Mrs. Washington. Each department of the summer school had on exhibition the evening of closing specimens of work. It was a great surprise to note how much had been accomplished in the four weeks. Not only the industrial department had done creditable work but the literary also as, was evidenced by the show of note books with outlines, notes and drawings, indicating the subjects studied. The making of all grades of baskets from the plain cotton basket to the fancy one for milady's trinkets, was taught. Many of them made churn dashers, ax handles, hat racks, washing boards also porch chairs besides numerous other household furnishings. The display from the Art Department attracted much attention. There were flags, all kinds of animals, fruits, wild flowers and even pillow tops done in the most attractive style, showing a fine perspective for outline and coloring. There was a real garden of flowers in full bloom teaching how to brighten and make cherry the school room and home by the use of crepe paper. The dressmaking department made its usual good showing of well and fashionably made gowns and underwear. The Jeanes supervisors of Georgia brought their usual amount of enthusiasm into the work. The assistant state club agent, Miss Skinner, of Athens and Special Rural School Supervisor, Prof. Geo. D. Godard, taught canning and drying of everything that is grown in the garden. There were canning outfits set up in shades of a large oak tree and with sleeves rolled up teachers were engaged for several days in doing the actual work of canning fruits and vegetables. On the 27th there were present many white friends including a number of county superintendents of schools, who spoke of their deep interest in the education of all the people of Georgia. On the last Sunday of the summer school a memorial services for Mrs. Lena Epps Jones was held in the school chapel. Mrs. Jones came to us for work as instructor on June 5th. She was taken home on the 10th to Macon and died on the morning of the 11th. Mrs. Jones had been with us as instructor in domestic art for three years. We were grieved over her illness and our hearts were filled with sorrow when we realized the end had come. Prof. Lewis Williams, the first principal under whom she taught, Mrs. F. J. Hunt, Mrs. C. Moore and Principal Hunt paid loving tributes to her beautiful life of service and the loss all us sustained in the going of one so brilliant, intellectually and skilful in doing many things. The lectures given throughout the session on food production and conservation, hygiene and sanitation, the care of babies, the world wide war, Mexico, rural schools and community uplift were most helpful. One evening was spent in a recital of Dunbar's poems, Prof. Lewis Williams. Principal of Macon Public School, Mr. E. E. Green, Jr., Macon, Ga., who is a student of Cornell doing vacation work in this section, sang most charmingly as did Miss Ethet Hill of Atlanta, songs being written by Dunbar. The pageant and two concerts gave a good impression to the scope and variety of talent of those in attendance at the summer session.

The commission found for the plaintiffs, and ordered the C. and P. Company to provide equal and ample accommodations for the number of colored passengers likely to apply for service, including staterooms, if they desired them. Any violation of the ruling would be punishable under the laws covering the case at issue. As an outcome, therefore, of the labors of this valiant committee, working without ceasing for nine long mouths, the "jim-crow" regulations of the Chesapeake and Potomac Steamboat Company have been set aside. Colored passengers are now permitted to enjoy first-class accommodations in the saloon and on the saloon deck, and are also furnished with state-room. This revised regulations went into effect from June 16.

June 28.—The third week of the Tuskegee summer school closed with an enrollment of 250. A party of nine teachers from Savannah, Ga., public schools were among the recent arrivals. On Monday, Maj. J. B. Ramsey, commandant, was the speaker. "The Boy" was his subject. He spoke out of his long and extensive experience in dealing with boys. He classified boys into such classes as shy boy, the masterful boy, the mischievous boy, the bully, and suggested how to approach their various classes. Mr. Bruce Kennedy, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, Montgomery, Ala., was the speaker on Thursday. He spoke on "Individual Responsibility for Citizenship." He paid tribute to Tuskegee and its founder, and the patriotism of Negro citizenship. He said that to fight in field, in furrow, in school-house, in shop, in the home, is to be just as much a soldier for one country as to be on the battle line. Cooperation is a new word. Every unit of society every man must cooperate. Democracy is service and service is democracy. The round table for Tuesday included stories illustrating autumn stories and legends.

DAUGHTER OF WEST VIRGINIA WINS HONORS Ann arbor, Mich., July 3.—Miss Phyllis Wheatley Waters, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Phil Waters, of Charleston, W. Va., graduated with high honors at the recent commencement of the University of Michigan. Miss Waters made an exceptionally fine record in athletics, being the first colored girl in the history of the University to win a "letter" in athletics. She was for four years a star on the basket-ball team and an expert gymnast. She also played for four years on the Ann Arbor high school basketball team, being unanimously elected captain in her senior year—an unprecedented distinction for a member of the race. She inherits much of her physical and athletic prowess from her father, Col. Waters, who is known throughout West Virginia as one of the best all-round baseball players, wrestlers, swimmers and boxers in his section of the country, and as an authority on all varieties of sports, being a regular staff contributor to The Sporting Life, published at St. Louis. Col. Waters is a leader in politics also, and is a prominent figure at the state conventions of the Republican party. Miss Waters will pursue advanced studies at Wellesley College, Massachusetts, the noted school for girls. She possesses a charming personality and readily makes friends among all classes of people wherever her lot is east. NOTICE!

Text of the Lesson, II Chron. xxviii, 1-27—Memory Verses, 1, 2—Golden Text, Heb. xi, 6—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. This is a hard lesson about a desperately bad man, one of the very worst of the kings of Judah, of whom it is said, "This is that king Ahaz" (verse 22). Manssseh may have been worse in some respects, but he repented, while of this man we read of no repentance. There were always some who feared God, a Godly remnant, and the sixteen years of this man's reign must have been a heartbreaking time for them, but no doubt a time of humiliation and unceasing prayer to God, and in due time deliverance came, as we shall see in our next lesson. Days of trial are always times of faith and patience on the part of God's people, and the terrible days still before us, of which we are having already some foretastes, will give great opportunity for the manifestation of such graces (Heb. vl. 12, 15; Rev. xill. 10). All life's story as well as all the Bible story is either a manifestation of God or the devil, and so it will be until a king shall reign in righteousness and peace and the devil be shut up in the pit for a thousand years. It is written of Ahaz that he did not right in the sight of the Lord, but walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and they, without exception, walked in the steps of Jeroboam, son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin. What Ahaz did that was wrong and desperately sinful is quite fully recorded in our lesson chapter and in II Kings xvi. He burned incense to other gods not only in Jerusalem, but in all the cities of Judah and on the hills and under every green tree. He burned his children in the fire like the heathen whom the Lord had cast out. He leaned on the king of Assyria and worshiped the gods of the kings of Syria. He had an altar made like one he saw in Damascus and put it in place of the brazen altar of the Lord and offered sacrifices upon it. He took the great laver from of the brazen oxen which supported it and set it on a pavement of stones. He cut in pieces the vessels of the house of God and shut up the doors of the house of the Lord. It seemed as if he could not do enough to show his barred God and His commandments. Yet he had a good father, Jothum, who beams mighty because he prepared his ways before the Lord his God (xxvll, 6), and he had a good son, as we shall see in our next lesson. These things are a great perplexity, just as similar things are in our own times. But there is rest in the Lord, and in Him alone, and in the fact that He cannot fall nor be discouraged (Isa. xlii, 4). The Lord brought Judah low because of Ahaz and because they had forgotten the Lord God of their fathers (verses 6, 10), but they did not repent nor turn to Him again. Isahal and Micah were the Lord's messengers in those days, as we learn from the first verse of each of these prophecies, and the Lord sent Isahal with a special message to Ahaz, telling him that if he would turn to the Lord the purpose of the Syrians against him would not stand nor come to pass and that he might be quiet and not be afraid of them, but that if he would not believe he would not be established. On that occasion, Isahal was to take with him his son, Shearjashub, whose name signifies the remnant shall return, for, as we said earlier in this lesson, there is always a godly remnant, and it seemed like saying to Ahaz that if he would not turn to the Lord the remnant would (Isa. xlii, 1-9). It was to this same Ahaz the Lord said, "Ask thee a sign of the Lord thy God; ask it either in the depth or in the height above," and Ahaz said, "I will not ask; neither will I tempt the Lord (Isa. vii, 10-12). He had provoked the Lord seemingly beyond all endurance, yet hear him say, I will not tempt the Lord. If he meant to say, I will not ask the Lord for anything nor have anything to do with Him, we could understand him better, for that is what his actions were saying and perhaps what he meant to say. Now hear this wonderful message from the Lord to such a man representing the house of David and at such a time: "The Lord Himself shall give you a sign. I hold, a virgin shall conceive and bear a son and call His name Immantiel" (Isa. vii, 13, 14). We cannot but think of the first assurance of the great deliverer being made to the devil himself (Gen. iii, 11, 15), and we know that when the devil shall come to the time of his very worst opposition to and defiance of God then shall He who in the fullness of time was really born of a virgin come, in His glory to overthrow all His enemies and set up His kingdom. When the devil incarnate, the coming antichrist, shall have gathered the kings of the earth and their armies against Him who is coming on the white horse, the Lamb shall overcome them, for He is King of kings and Lord of lords (Rev. xvii, 14; xix, 10). That will be the morning of the Sun of Righteousness of which David spoke in his last words, but there will be no morning for such as Ahaz, who have no use for God or His word (II Sam. xxiii, 3:5; Isa. viii, 20. R. V). The glorious assurances of Isaiah 11 and xi and xii surely cry aloud to us.
