VOLUME XXXII
FINE APARTMENTS FOR NEGROES
VALUABLE REAL ESTATE TO BE USED IN HARLEM
Will Give First Class Accommodation For 300 Families.
New York, July 11.—The most important transaction in the history of this city for the housing of Negroes was closed yesterday when six of the best elevator apartment buildings in upper Harlem were purchased to be occupied by Negro families. The property is assessed at more than $1,000,000, but as other property was given in part payment the aggregate value of the realty involved was about $1,500,000.
The six Harlem houses include the three buildings at 117 to 143 West 141st street and three similar structures abutting at 130 to 148 West 142d street. Each of the 141st street houses has a frontage of 125 feet, a total of 375 feet on that thoroughfare. The 142d street houses are a trifle larger, each fronting 150 feet, at total of 450 feet on that street. They occupy about three-fourths of the block bounded by Lenox and Seventh avenues, 141st and 142d streets. They were built about four years ago and contain all modern improvements, including gas, electricity, telephones, mail clutes, parquet floors and hardwood trim. At present they are occupied by white tenants, but all of the leases expire on October 1. The new owners are making plans to cancel some of the leases before that time, and as fast as vacancies occur the rooms will be rented to Negroes. The houses, are of six stories and will accommodate more than 300 families.
Philip A. Payton, Jr., who for years has been the most prominent real e-state operator in the uptown colored belt, will manage the houses for the new owners, a syndicate known as the Philton Holding Company, represented by Greenberg & Levy as attorneys. Mr. Payton said yesterday that there would be no difficulty in leasing the apartments at good rents, as there was a splendidly increasing demand from the better class of Negro residents in Harlem for apartments of the most modern type.
An interesting feature of the operation is that the houses will be named after Negroes of prominence. Those in 141st street will be named Attucks Court, Toussaint Court and Wheatley Court. The first will commemorate the memory of Crispus Attucks, who was shot by the British soldiers in the famous Boston massacre on the Commons, March 5, 1770, that event being celebrated in history as marking the first bloodshed of the Revolution. Toussaint commemorates Toussaint L'Overture, the librator of Halti and Wheatley Court is in honor of Phillis Wheatley, the Afro-American poetess who wrote an ode to George Washington. The 143d street houses will be named, respectively, Dunhair Court, after Paul Laurence Dunbar, the Negro poet; Douglass Court; after Frederick Douglass, the eloquent leader in uplifting his race, and Washington Court, in honor of the late Booker T. Washington. Their pictures will be placed in the foyer of the houses bearing their names.
The Negro population in Harlem, sald Mr. Payton, numbers about 70,000, and it has been augmented by nearly 15.000 in the last year as a result of the emigration from the South.

Robarr R. Edmonson, a Tuskegee graduate, had the officials of the army recruiting office in St. Louis in a quandary for a while. Edmonson is an expert mechanic and is employed in the mechanical department of the Missouri-Pacific Railroad shops at Pueblo, Colorado. When the government called for mechanics to volunteer for the Second Reserve engineers, thirty-four men made application from the Pueblo shops Edmonson was one of the four whose names were submitted by B. F. Bush, president of the road. Although his application was plainly marked "Colored," he was ordered by the army officials to come to St. Louis.
When he arrived at the office here, June 23, he was told by Colonel Townsend that "this is strictly a white man's regiment." After admitting that Edmonson's application had been accepted in regular form and that his experience was such as to qualify him for service, the colonel tried to disqualify him by stating that it would be necessary for all engineers to speak French. Edmonson demonstrated that he spoke the language fluently.
Major Hall then admitted they were "up against it" and after much parleying, offered him a chance in the Mess Department. Of course Edmonson declined to accept the offer and left for Pueblo to resume his work in the Missouri-Pacific shops.
Railroad officials here state that the call for volunteers did not specify nationality or race.-St. Louis Argus.

SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, SATURDAY JULY 14, 1917
Samaritans Erect $35,000 Building
EDITOR B. J. DAVIS DELIVERS STIRRING ADDRESS
About 5,000 Visitors Attend Dedicatory Exercises
Athens, Ga., July 4.—Five thousand Negroes were here today to attend the dedication of the new headquarters building of the Improved Order of Samaritans which is just completed at a cost of $35,000 all of which is paid. It is a modern office building of brick with two stores on the first floor, twelve suites of offices on the second floor and an auditorium on the third floor and was designed and constructed by Negroes.
B: J. Davis, of Atlanta, well known in Negro fraternal circles, delivered the principal address and urged the white people to give his race better treatment and referred to lynching and insufficient school facilities as some of the causes of Negro migration.
"Some Negroes," said Davis, "think that God is better to the white man than He is to the colored man. That is not true. The white man works harder than we do. God gives him health and strength just like he gives us, but the white man works and makes every lick count. I have more respect for the man who owns his home or a farm and has a bank account than I have for some bareheaded, empty-pocketed philosopher who sits on the street corner and whines about his rights."
"But the Negro is not going to be disloyal. He is going to do his duty as the highest evidence of his worth and of what he deserves at the hands of the government. Our government cannot enter the world war, demanding freedom for Ireland, freedom for Russia, freedom for Belgians under the yoke of aristocracy and despotism, so long as ten million loyal citizens at home are denied industrial and political freedom; so long as we are denied the right to vote and the right to have a say so about who shall make the laws and who shall execute them. Before the law all men are equal. There is nothing wrong in the law. There is nothing wrong in the genius of our institution. The wrong is in the executors and administrators of the statutes on the books.
"In every state in which subterfuges have been invoked to cut down the Negro vote, to molest and intimidate him into that degree of physical fear where he will not present himself to exercise his manhood rights, that state is not democratic, and its government is unjust. The Negroes of this country, owning a billion dollars worth of property, are without a representative in any legislature or congress, or filling any representative function in this great republic. Ten million people are governed without their representative participation. Laws are made for them, and they have no voice in their enactment.
"These are the rights for which we must fight. These are the blessings of democracy which are now denied us, and let us get together for the common betterment of all, forgetting prejudice within the race; forgetting denominational, religious and racial strife and fight for the right to sit upon a jury, for equal and fair suffrage laws, for a free ballot and a fair count, for equal accommodations on the railroad, for better, broader and higher educational facilities. Let us tell the white man that his distribution of public school funds is little less than a misappropriation; that any system of education or distribution of public funds that provides ample and modern school houses for the education and uplift of white children and affords starvation salaries for Negro teachers and provides no house at all for the Negro children is a misuse of the public funds and is inconsistent with democracy for which we fight.
The preliminary address was delivered by Dr. S. Melville Pitt, of Elberton, Ga., and he said in part: "It is significant that we should dedicate this magnificent building on this the nation's birthday. This order stands for progress, for advancement and for growth in community spirit and race consciousness. This building stands as a monument to the indomitable will and unswerving perseverance of Dr. W. H. Harris."
The building which was dedicated is a beautiful brick structure with two large stores on the first floor and
Tuskegee, Enrolls Big Summer School
PRINCIPAL MOTON ENTERTAINS WITH RECEPTION
Many Distinguished Educators Address the Teachers
Tuskegee, Ala., July 5.—The fourth week of the summer school closed with an enrollment of 261. On Monday Mr. G. R. Bridgeforth, director of agricultural industries was the speaker, "Cooperating in Rural Communities" was his subject. He spoke out of his early experiences as a teacher, and described the means used to bring the people together in co-oprative efforts. To widen the vi-lon of the country school and community is the big problem. He also spoke along the lines of conservation of food and the growing of more food for the home.
Miss Laura E. Wilkes of the Washington, D. C., public schools was the speaker on Thursday and Friday. Miss Wilkes' subject was "Some Missing Pages from American History." In a very interesting manner she traced the services and herolsm of egroes in the wars of America, beginning with the early colonial wars. She told over again the story of Attucks and Salem, and the story of the later wars, not forgetting the hero of Carrizal. Miss Wilkes has ready for the press a Negro history. Her style is flowing and easy, and she has a delightful personality. Her visit to the summer school is highly appreciated.
The fourth of July was celebrated in fitting manner. No classes were held on that day. In the morning the students had patriotic exercises, the principal address being delivered by a summer school teacher, Mr. M. L. Rook's Brinkley, Ark. In the afternoon there were athletic games, and a band concert at night on White Hall lawn. On Thursday evening Principal Moton gave a reception at his, home to the teachers. This was a very pleasant affair.

HOW STATE BUSINESS MEN TO GO TO CHATTANOOGA
Négro Business League Weekly Letter By J. C. Lindsay
Throughout the entire state of Georgia, the Negro business men and women are making great preparation for the National Negro Business League, which will meet in the city of Chattanooga, Tenn., August 15-17, inclusive.
Owing to the close proximity of the meeting place of the National Negro Business League this year, to this state in which the efforts of the Negro along lines of industrial development stand out so prominent, and, too, because of the fact that the first meeting held after the present executive head of the league was inducted into office will be in Tennessee the home state of President J. C. Napler, not mentioning the extreme anxiety of National Secretary Emmett J. Scott, who is well and favorably known from one end of this country to the other, who has urged that Georgia send to this/forthcoming meeting a large and strong delegation, argues all the more in favor of the Negro Business men and women in the state of Georgia, sending to the meeting this year, a record breaking delegation, which the Negro business element all over this country naturally expects her to do.
Secretary J. C. Lindsay of the Negro Business League of Georgia, has received a number of letters from various sections of the state, assuring him that the local leagues of the various towns and cities, will be represented at the National League in the city of Chattannooga this year. Our own local league will send up a very strong delegation to the National League this year, to gain new business ideas and get new inspiration for the expanding and developing of the enterprises with which they are connected.
Among the well and favorably known Negro business enterprises which will be represented at the National League this year, and the business men who are to represent them, may be mentioned the following well-known Negro business men of this city namely:
A. B. Singfield, district manager, Pilgrim Health & Life Insurance Co. who is also president of the Georgia State Negro Business League; L. M. Pollard, secretary-treasurer Guaranty Mutual Life & Health Insurance Co., al-o manager of the Royal Undertaking Co.; J. G. Lemon, attorney at law; H. T. Singleton, vice president of the Ga. Mutual Insurance Co., also district manager of the Savannah Division and secretary of the Commonwealth Loan & Realty Co.; W. W. Hill, dealer in picture frames and secretary of the local branch of the National Negro Business League; Sol. C. Johnson, editor and owner of the Savannah Tribune and Vice president of the Wage Earners Savangs Bank; Daniel Simmons, president of the Savannah Mattress Co., and vice president of the Mechanics Savings Bank and J. C. Lindsay.
The plans of these well known Negro Business men are to leave Savannah Sunday morning August 12th and spend the night at Milledgeville and leave Milledgeville Monday morning, August 13th spend the night in Atlanta, where the men from Macon, Newnan, Griffin, Waycross, Barnesville and other points south of Atlanta are to mobilize, and go from Atlanta in a body cross country, to Chattanooga, arriving there late in the afternoon, August 14th, so as to be on hand Wednesday morning, at the opening of the first session of the meeting.
Not only will the men of Georgia, as well as the men from other places and states be greatly benefited by this meeting, as touching the matter of business pure and simple, but men of Georgia, who will take this trip, as suggested and outlined by National Secretary Emmett J. Scott, and who are trying to co-operate with him in this regard, will be doubly benefited and repaid for what ever time it may take to go and come in this way, as outlined, coming as a direct result of the pleasure afforded in motoring cross-country in automobiles, stopping at will, making investigations, when and wherever necessary.
As one who may chance to see this letter, whether he or she is a member of the Negro Business League, local state or national, and desires to go along in this party of jolly good fellows, and wishes to communicate with those suggested by National Secretary Scott, as willing workers in matters of this kind in the state of Georgia, you are respectfully asked to get in touch with Dr. E. D. Bowden, Griffin, Ga., Dr. C. H. Johnson, 200 Auburn Ave., Atlanta, Gaf; Col. M. B. Moton, Moton Building, Athens, Ga.; Dr. W. H. Har-

KNIGHTS HOLD GRAND LODGE
ATTENDANCE SMALER THAN IN
PREVIOUS YEARS
Sav'h Companies Make Good Showing
In Uniform Rank Parade
Augusta, July 13th—The Knights of
Pythias of the state and the Courts
of Calanthe met here Monday night
in their annual convention the former
holding their sessions at Payne College
and the latter at Haines Institute.
The opening exercises at both
meetings were interesting, the Rev.
P. J. Bryant, of Atlanta, making one
of the most brilliant addresses ever
listened to by the order.
The principal feature of Tuesday, afternoon was the parade of the uniform rank. There were six companies in line, four of which were from Savannah. The parade, which was headed by the well known Knights band from the Forest City, while not as large as that of past years, was rather impressive. Aside from the uniformed companies the grand lodge and grand court officials took part in the display being conveyed in automobiles and carriages. The parade traversed the principal streets of the city, ending at Campbell and Gwinnett streets.
The sessions were of the usual interest and harmonious. The old officers of the grand lodge were all reelected.
The sessions of the Knights were presided over by Grand Chancellor G. R. Hutto of Balmbridge, Ga., and that of the Courts by Mrs. R. L. Barnes of Savannah, Grand Counsellor.
The liberal hospitality shown the visitors was the subject of favorable comment on every side. The citizens opened wide their doors to the guests and did everything in their power to make their stay an enjoyable one. The last large crowd-of visitors left last night for their homes, singing loud their praises of the enjoyable stay they had here.
HOPE CREST PAVILION HAS BEEN COMPLETED
Ideal Place for Picnics and Other Outings
Hope Crest the ideal summer resort which is being developed by G. H. Bowen, is growing more and more into favor every day. Not only is it an ideal place for a Negro summer resort, being situated within a short distance of the Isle of Hope and edging the beautiful river which bears this name, but now it has been developed into a first class picnic ground with all conveniences, electric lights, pavilion, fine artesian water and boating. The pavilion which sits over the water and is 50x40 feet, was completed last week. It is an ideal spot for dancing and will be much appreciated by the devotees of the terpstchorean art.
The location of the grounds, the situation of the pavilion and the admirable surrounding features make Hope Crest a second Montgomery, the place which in days gone by was the finest picnic spot in Southeast Georgia. Information as to the leasing of the pavilion for outings may be had from G. H. Bowen, the owner, phone 4096 or by calling at 45S West Broad street.

See and talk with the real insurance man! At this hour I am
representing in Savannah one of the best insurance companies that
you know of. It is best because we help you while youl are liv-
ing by paying you before you die. It also pays you when'you die.
The American Workmen’s Insurance Company. It was incorpor-
atéd June 26th, 1908 under the laws of the District of Columbia,
said laws being enacted by Congress and approved by the Presi-
dent of the United States. No other insurance company has had
the highest powers of our country to take an active part in bring-
ing about its organization. When organized there was deposited
in the treasury at Washington, D. C., a reserve fund for the pro-
tection of its members. This money cannat be used for anything
else but to pay you in many ways. First, we pay $6.00 per weck
accident, $6.00 per week sick benefits and we pay accident, benefits
as high as $750.00.- We pay old age benefits. $500.00 to members
while living. Policy loans made to members after five years con-
tinuous membership. To keep a $1,000 certificate in force it will
not cost middle age people over $1.20 per month. If you pay semi
‘or annually it will cost less. Women and men are equal in this
‘company. Any one can carry a policy who is between the ages of
18 and 55 years. E. B. JFFERSON, Solicitor and Deputy of
State of Georgia. 537 “ast Huntingdon St., Savannah, Ga. *

Among The Masons
Among The Masons
A lawyer in Western Arkansas writes to have the Trowel discontinued. He says that no doubt he should read the paper, but that he has not the time. The question naturally arises: Why did the man become a Mason at all? And what interest has he in it now? It is wonderful when a man is actually so pressed for time that he cannot read the official organ of the great fraternity which should claim his heart, his hand, and at least a part of his time.
A Mason who for lack of funds is unable to take a Masonic paper is excusable, but the man who admits that he hasn't time enough to read a Masonic paper practically confesses his lack of interest in the great fraternity, for it is not time but inclination that is lacking in such a case.—Trowel, Little Rock, Ark.

The Rule and Guide of Life
We all surely need a rules in the complex currents of daily life. We need also a guide for our steps in the Bible, which is the one great book of all humanity. The Bible belongs not to one race of people, to one class or another, but to all men everywhere and always. It is always new, never old. It contains the whole drama of human history, both past and future, from eternity to eternity.
It is not necessary to notice the hostile attacks of unfriendly higher criticism as to whether it be true or false. Though to say that it feeds the hungry soul yearning after spiritual food, that it gives inspiration and hope to the despondent and the weary—that it is a comfort and stay in time of trouble. We may know it by its fruits and its effects. Even were it not directly inspired by God, we certainly are inspired by the sublime teachings when we read it.
From a merely human point of view, it is the one book in all literature. It covers a period of time beginning with creation and projecting far into the future. It was written by many writers, during sixteen centuries, and contains a library of sixty-six books. It is history, law, poetry, romance, prophecy and song. It is intensely human and democratic. Its translation in 1611 into the classic language of Shakespeare, Spencer and Milton, has profoundly influenced the character of the English people and made them what they are. Wherever it has gone into any country race or nation, it has changed and reformed the life and character. Where it has been kept out morals, decency, education and liberty have languished or died.
Such is the book which we Masons revere and love. Without it there could be no Masonry. It has given us our historic foundations and landmarks. But we should not only respect it, we should love it, and we should read it, make it a part of our personality. We should be as familiar wis it as we are with our ritual, lectures and obliga-

tions. The number of Bible students and Bible classes is increasing rapidly every year. We Masons cannot afford to be more ignorant of the Bible than other people. Never were the helps and literature more easily accessible. Whether or not we should have Bible study classes in our lodges is a matter of opinion. But it is certainly true that we cannot be perfect and loyal Masons without a knowledge of the Great Book of Books.—Selected.
How Are You Brother?
Make it a point to get acquainted with the brothers when you go to the lodge. Speak to them whether you know their names or not. Somebody, of course ought to introduce you, but don't wait for that. Walk right up to a brother who is standing alone; and looking as though he was in a strange place, and say to him, "How are you, brother? What's your name? Glad to see you." He'll like you, and you'll be surprised how you'll come to like yourself if you do this a few times.—The Ashlar.

Masonry is stronger in Brazil than in any other South American country, there being 506 lodges, with an aggregate membership of 52,912.
Rapid Growth of Lodges
Not many years ago a Chicago lodge having 500 members was considered an exceptionally large lodge. In fact, few lodges could boast of that many members. But what a change a few years makes! At the present time the lodge with 500 members is not considered a big lodge. With one lodge approaching the 1,500 mark, another 1,200 and some eight or ten nearing the 1,000 mark, the one-time big lodge with its 500 members no longer attracts attention because of its size.
However, there is one big lodge in Chicago that is attracting attention because of its size, and it expects to pass the 500 mark during the month of July, when it will celebrate the third anniversary of its existence. July 12, 1910. Veritas Lodge was instituted. July 12, 1913 it added to its roll its 500th member. A majority of the members of this young giant are young men, many of them being sons of members of the lodges. Despite its rapid growth, it has been fortunate in selecting its members, and it is one of the best conducted and most harmonious lodges in the city.—Masonic Chronicle.

THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE. SATURDAY JULY 14, 1917
Lodge Celebrates St. John's Day
Light of the West Lodge No. 551 at
Durand, celebrated St. John's day
July 1. The members and citizens were
honored by the presence of Grand Master H. R. Butler of Atlanta, who delivered one of his usual able addresses,
tuned with good admonition and hope for the future. The visiting brothers were R. B. Butts of Greenville No. 268,
C. J. Warren of Light of the East No. 315, also Robert Harris, Sol. Stinson of 315, Calvin Copeland, W. M. Freeman, G. W. McGhee, 'Sanford Whitehead, John Carter, Louis L. Stinson and Jacob Tigner. Both brothers of the lodge and members of the Eastern Star contributed liberally, amounting to $31.80. The brothers showed their patriotism by appropriating a neat sum to the Red Cross fund. Past Master R. B. Butts acted as master of ceremonies. Bro C. Martin is the able worshipful master of this lodge, with Bro. W. H. Hall as secretary.
Metcalf Lodge No. 278 and Parena Chapter No. 222 O. E. S., observed St. John's day jointly. An interesting sermon was preached by Rev. D. W. Bently, W. M., of the lodge. Miss Maggie E. R. Franklin lectured to the audience. Both of these organizations are progressive.
The Grand Chapter O. E. S. meets in Atlanta August 7. The opening exercises are held August 6th.
NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITOL
Washington, D. C., July 11.—All Washington is stirred to its depths by the news of the rein of terror at East St. Louis, Ill. The dispatches have been eagerly scanned day by day for the details of the awful tragedy and a pall of pessimism, for the nonce, seemed to settle over our usually optimistic and care free people. If the right to be a citizen is denied in the South and the right to work nullified in the North, it was felt the condition of the masses of the Negro is deplorable indeed.
Able letters have been written by notable men and women of national prominence, each pointing out some method by which a betterment of conditions may be brought about. A ringing comment was sent out through the Associated Press by Dr. Robert Russia Moton, the watchful president of Tulkeegee Institute. He said in part:
"I beg to express my personal pain and cragrin, as well as the dis- couragement and claigrin of millions of my people throughout the country, that those riots on the eve of the celebration of the Declaration of Independence, should occur to bring shame to our country, especially at a time like this when we are calling upon Negroes, as well as white men, to defend democracy, and to stand for a square deal for weaker nations and weaker peoples.
"There is room in America for the various racial groups to work out their salvation. Killing and maiming men
because they are seeking economical salvation is not, in my opinion, a credit to our civilization or to our boasted doctrine of fair-play.
Dr. James E. Shepard, in a stirring address to the American Press presented while here on business connected with his school of Durham, N.C., made these timely observations:
"The increasing lynchings of helpless people, both North and South, in many instances for trivial things, are having a depressing effect on a people who love their country and who are loyal and true to the flag. The courts of the land are in control of the whites, so there is never an excuse for lynching.
"The Negro is asking for a right to live and to hope. I appeal to the righteous sense of the Anglo-Saxon and ask the aid of the press and public at large to stlr some sentiment against lynchings, the murder of helpless women and children and the burning of human beings.
The spirit of the Anglo-Saxon is for fair play and that the strong do not unnecessarily oppress the weak. Please arouse this dormant spirit and cause America to awaken, so that altogether we can work side by side to help make the world a better place in which people can live and fulfil their divinely-ordained destiny."

John W. F. Smith, a very capable and efficient clerk in the office of the public schools, in the Franklin Building, is favorably mentioned in connection with the assistant superintendency to succeed Roscoe Conkling Bruce. Mr. Smith is the son of the late Col. William Henry Smith, for many years assistant librarian of the Library of Congress.
Mrs. J. Percy Bond, wife of the local manager of the Standard Life Insurance company, has joined her husband in this city. She is a valuable addition to our society circles. Mr. and Mrs. Bond were formerly connected with the Tuskegee Institute.
Thomas M. Dent, of the Department of Commerce, is writing some interesting news letters to the Detroit, Mich., Leader.
A. H. Underdown is director of the playground near Howard University and Fred Randall is in charge of the Cardozo school play ground. These resorts are well-patronized by the colored children.

Dr. John Van Schalck, Jf., president of the board of education, is expected to return for a brief stay in the fall. He is now in France on business connected with the Red Cross Society's activities. He has been re-elected president of the board, and George L. Hamilton has been made vice-president.
George L. Hamilton's appointment as a member of the Board of education is well received by the colored citizens of the district.
The Washington boys at the Fort Des Molnes officers' training camp are well and enjoying the strenuous life they are leading. They realize the importance of the work in hand and are determined to prove the capacity of the colored man for leadership in military as well as in civic affairs.

PAGE THREE
DR. B. F. ALLEN RETAINED
Distinguished Educator Kept at the Head of Lincoln Institute
We are pleased to note the fact that Dr. B. F. Allen was re elected president of Lincoln Institute after a terrific battle among his own race. We are glad that the state superintendent of education, Mr. U. W. Lampkins, for the first time in the history of Missouri decided to recognize the colored people along the lines of the various institutions that are conducted for colored people. He checked it up to them as to the re-election of Mr. Allen and by this method the very best men and strongest of the race went to the bat for President Allen and he was re-elected. We are glad that from now on colored men will be consulted as to the election of men to offices in colored institutions instead of cheap, designing white men whose chief aim is to graft and lower the dignity of the colored man who hold these positions.
Lincoln Institute has been in politics since its organization and some of the driest politics ever conceived have been played in conducting the school. Mr. Allen has been handicapped by these political schemes and not allowed to exercise all of his rights. Now we hope Mr. Allen will be free to give his time and great ability to the school and then if he cannot deliver the goods, it will be time to make a change, but first give him a chance.
It seems to be the policy on the part of some of the white people of Missouri to impede the progress of the colored people along educational lines they don't want them to have a high education. In fact, do not want thme to have anything and the money appropriated to run Lincoln Institute is a mere pittance and not as much as is appropriated to high schools in some small towns of Kansas.
President Allen is to be complimented upon the class of work he has turned out when one takes into consideration the money he has received. The appropriations have been niggardly and measily and a disgrace to the state of Missouri. Lincoln Institute is where the entire race of school age except those ready for college, attend, if they wish to become educated along the branches of trade, arts and educational work in their state.
While at Columbia, over $100,000 is expended for the education of white boys and girls; art and science is taught and a two year's medical course, yet there is nothing of this kind at Jefferson City. It is the fault of the colored people and instead of getting together and fighting the president of their school, they should rally together and see that the legislature gives them a decent appropriation and a first-class

Saturday July 14, 1917
Oglethorpe, Ga., July 10, 1917 Kindly permit me to endorse and commend in the highest terms, your splendid and timely editorial, "The Blood Spots", in the last issue of The Tribune. It is indeed awful to think of the harsh, brutal and unfair treatment accorded Negroes in this "land of the free and home of the brave," and we need just such strong and courageous writers as you to defend our worthy and just cause. It is a divine law that no nation, race or individual can inflict injury, and injustice upon another without also hurting itself; the Biblical injunction, "Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap," applies to all alike.
Yes, God still lives, and is watching over us; and if we only do our part, and fully trust Him, the future will bring a brighter and better day for us.
As to the wrongs, hardships and unfair treatment, some time, some how, God will bring our enemy to account, for indeed it was. He who said "Vengeance is mine, and I shall repay."
May you continue in the good work.
Fraternally yours,
S. A. Jones
TWO COLOR LINE CASES
The manner in which the color line labor troubles were mi-managed in East St. Louis is nothing less than a government scandal. The lack of preservation of law and order of those whose duty it was to put the public interest above any private interest gave the opportunity which the forces of disorder used as though the United States were, like Russia, in the throes of revolution. Another color line case has been settled more creditably and without attracting public attention. Upon behalf of the Machinists' Union, an alien named Lefkowitz demanded that Wendell King should be dismissed by the General Electric Company at Schemetady, where there is much government work in progress. King is an American colored man, a college student, and there was only racial objections to his employment. Nothing is said against him personally. Although there are over a hundred colored men employed by the company, but the strike was only against the employment of King a machinist. When the 6,000 strikers went out, they carried the American flag and followed the alien Lefkowitz. The company declared its policy to be that it would "tolerate no discrimination against any worthy individual or account of nationality or color. The management believes that every person should be given an opportunity to improve his condition."
To the credit of the unionists, it must be said that their procedure was orderly throughout, and that their International Union refused to approve their procedure. Now it is announced that the policy of the company has prevailed over that of the unnaturalized alien whose followers presumed to hoist the American flag over their undemocratic proposals. If the officials of East St. Louis had been as firm and clear in their position as the officials of this corporation, there would not have been such a contrast between the two cases.—The New York Times.
SAVANNAH'S CRDIE
The colored citizens of Savannah are determined to exhaust every remedy, of moral suasion and law, to remove the houses of white prostitutes now lo
THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE SATURDAY JULY 14.1917.
cated in Negro neighborhoods and to prevent the unloading of others by the police department.
The committee of nine, with due respect for all parties and interests involved and with self-reverence and self-respect, has directed its appeal to the Christian conscience of Savannah manhood and womanhood, to the business interests, to the uplift and civic organizations, to the white ministry of all denominations, to the Negro, to the city council and to the police department, to prevent this humiliation, this demoralizing stench in the nostrils of some of the most respectable Negroes of Savannah.
It has been pointed out to these persons, to these interests:
First. That Negro preceded white harlotry there. There are living in this section now, many citizens, some home-owners, who have resided there as tenants or as home-owners, for thirty and forty years. These men and women know the history of the settlement of this section of our city. They assert that the first of the white prostitutes were there not earlier than twenty years ago, and that regular protest of their presence has been made throughout the period of their residence.
The Mayor and Police department, if, indeed, these he separate institutions, claim that the Negro residents moved into this neighborhood knowing of the presence of these houses of ill-fame. Nothing can be further from the truth. Second. That this is a Negro neighborhood; that it is contrary to the policy of southern white men to promote an admixture of Negro and white people in the same city blocks; that there is the ever-present danger of racial strife and other evils which may result from this intermingling.
Third. That the great majority of Savannah Negroes must live west of West Broad street; that most of their work is conveniently located with reference to this section; that most of Negro business and most of those with whom Negroes do business are located on West Broad street; that the great majority of Negro churches. Negro lodges, halls, schools and such interests are located in this proposed section or are contiguous to it.
Fourth. That there are upward of fifteen hundred (1,500) children of school age in this territory and immediate vicinity; that the majority of the pupils of Cuyler School and Maple Street schools, besides the Swanglin and St. Augustine's private schools, live in this neighborhood; that the majority of the Negro churches and the members thereof are located in this immediate vicinity.
Fifth. That this is the most desirable neighborhood, from standpoint of convenience and location, which is available to Negro tenants and homeowners, (real estate men will affirm that sales and renting are easier in this section than any other); Negroes cannot purchase property east of West Broad street, convenient to their work and other interests. In a sense, the rank and file of substantial Negroes are restricted in residence, to this very area, by these natural, social and commercial processes of segregation.
Sixth. That out of around eight hundred (900) property-owners in this section, one hundred twenty-one (121) are Negroes (a commendable proportion), and these owners and the tenants as well, being citizens and taxpayers, have the right, of protection against this morally fatal imposition. They have the right of appeal for this protection to the Mayor and City Council who are ultimately responsible for the protection of the citizens of this city. They have the right of appeal to the police power to protect and defend their children against this menace and public nuisance, proprogued in violation of law and destructive of character and good order.
The women are already moving, under police direction and regulation, to the Negro neighborhoods. It would seem inconceivable that the city would be found treating with and arranging for the comfort, the housing and protection of sin such as this; it would seem that this practice, contrary to law and good government, would find itself in disfavor with the official family of the city. We do not quite expect to find the Mayor and Chief of Police resorting to this and that weak subterfuge to defend these accused and abandoned wretches and keep them to curse and to destroy the morals and manhood of the present generation of Savannah, and to remain a damning heritage to those unborn.
It is even a sin unto the unfortunate women themselves, in that it recognizes and legitimates whoredom as an institution. It temporizes with a 'grieros sin'; it capitalizes vice; it removes from these women the chance of reform and deprives them of the opportunity of mending their own ways.
We find the property-owners of East Oglethorpe avenue, some opposed to the removal of these women because of the high rental they pay and others agitating their removal for purposes of property redemption. Purely mercenary reasons! Isn't it horrifying to
contemplate that men are so moneymad as this? Isn't it an awful admission that business has descended to this traffic in the very souls of men and women?
And, then, the committee of respectable Negro citizens could not bring the Mayor and Police department to see the terrible wrong, the woeful injustice which this hellish institution must mean to the hundreds of young children which its poisonous influences will reach. Nor could they conceive of the ever present occasion for disorder, racial clash and what not, which this incubator of white crime located in a black neighborhood must mean.
They will not learn the lesson of Springfield, of East St. Louis and other cities famous for their blood and carnage, with Negroes always on the suffering, wretched end.
There can be no temporizing with sin! There is no defense of women who sell their souls for lives of supposed case, for garish dress and pelt.
The United States government will not locate its camps and cantonments where they may come under the destructive influences of prostitute women. Atlanta, Chattanooga and other cities, accepting the difficulties, and obstacles, drove these women from their borders. Will Savannah be published abroad as making treaty with the greatest of all sins? Will the generations that are to come, honor those who license adultery and fornication in the name of our great city? God forbid that the traditions of Savannah shall be so seduced, that official policy shall descend to such depths that the big men find themselves grovelling in such mess and mire!
Frankly, lastly, the honest and struggling colored men and women feel that little consideration is paid to their interests and efforts to uplift themselves. We feel that the city authorities are confident that the friendliness of fair-minded white men does not extend to the point of a courageous and militant fight for principle and fair play as these things affect Negroes. The Chief of Police does not fear the condemnation of the leading people of our city when it is won by imposing upon Negroes. In a word, the perpetrators of this damning outrage, feel an immunity because it is inflicted upon Negroes.
Will the thousands of Christian people in Savannah suffer this outrage to be committed? Are the moral senses of the gentlemen and gentle women of Savannah, so deadened, so dumb from apathy, that they will see this devilish crime committed without giving relief?
Are these very same people, themselves, not affected? Are not the husbands, fathers, sons and brothers of white Savannah homes the prey, the victims, of these moral vultures, these social lepers? Will Savannah not rise in self-defense, if not from a sense of fairness and simple justice?
Will RIGHT and JUSTICE be sacrificed, in the name of good government, while thousands of free people—Christians—behold it in silence? God forbid! Heaven help us!
The teachers who have gone away for work at summer schools are worthy of more than passing appreciation because of their going. Packing away to summer school study during the hot and sultry summer, when one is already tired and worn, and might be justified in vacation, and when the going is at a severe money sacrifice under none too large wages, is deserving of warmest encouragement. It savours of enterprise, interest in keeping snake, apace and in the front ranks.
we shall continue to improve along this line. There is no place for those who drop back in the line or cling to an ancient doctrine and methods. The responsibility is too grave, the charge too worthy. There are those who would not grow lethargic but there are those who may, and thus it is highly desirable and necessary to measure arms with those in other fields and spheres that we may keep abreast of the times in the important matter of training the young for life's work.
THE RIGHTS OF OTHERS
The renowned Henry George once addressed a vast gathering of working men in Cooper-Union, New York. He had been introduced as 'the friend of the working-man.' When he arose to his feet he declared, "I am not the friend of the working-man." Of course, this statement, made with a positiveness and an unwonted vehement, struck terror and consternation in the hearts of professional politicians. Then he added, "Nor am I the friend of the capitalist." The mental tension slackened just a little, while the great audience held its breath, awaiting the final word. "I am for men" he continued, "men simply as men, regardless of any accidental or superficial distinction of race, class.
color, creed, or yet of function or position."
He was aiming his blow at class consciousness, the great curse of the times, the whole world over. He was visualizing for these working men the great field of humanity, in the great world of living and working, and trying to implant a lesson of the great social democracy which must come before humanity is fully 'purified for "His kingdom come on earth;" when war shall be no more.
The benefits of education, itself a social process; the enjoyment of civic privilege; participation in the affairs of government; and the profit of all public and philanthropic enterprise—all these are but incidents in the great socializing process. If these are beg-gared, trammeled and vitiated by wrongful motive and hate, the process is retarded.
What the world needs to day, is to get a vision of that larger consciousness, the "consciousness of kind," before it is in the attitude of developing full reciprocal human relations. This would be the ideal social state. Progress, then, ethic and other, would be rapid and stable. Unstable and degenerate social ideals are, the direct curses of the great war. A self-conscious, self-sufficient and self-centered people have arrogated to themselves the leadership of the world's affairs; have deceived themselves into believing it a divine responsibility that they should dominate other people. Their open boast was the challenge of the whole world and made the latent fundamental of contention. It thus became easy to set the world afame upon slightest pretext and occasion. In much the same way, individuals and classes, forget themselves in vain conceit and learn to ignore the prerogatives of others. The very first move from savagery toward civilized regime was respect for the rights of others, and this theory is the basis of all human activity. All progress and all enterprise must be considered with respect to mutual right and privilege. All peoples, classes and individuals who do not accept this theory of social relationship will need to be disillusioned.
The unnatural morbidity and perversion makes conflict and litigation between individuals, boycott and riot between classes and war between nations. The basis of adjustment for all internal and international controversy must be mutual acceptance of the theory of mutual right. Until the sum shall rise upon a social state of fullest freedom of opportunity—wherein the heights to which men may rise are determined almost solely by their ability and character—we shall have bickering and riot and war.
The world wags on and civilization wends its way forward and upward according as men's souls grow and their noblest ideals are established and enthroned in their hearts to govern their lives. As long as the baser motives determine their acts, their conduct, so long will the ideal social state be delayed.
It is the story of the world, that the inauguration of any worthy reform has always been effected through sacrifices. Is it not clear that the millions of suffering and dying on today's battlefield made the great sacrifice that must be paid to re-establish the law of mutual human right?
Shall not all men, high and low, of every kith and kind, have the right to enter the great field of opportunity with the privilege of fixing his own status according to his merits? Shall not classes and nations enter the game of free and fair competition for world leadership? Shall not nations and classes and individuals be free "indeed." God forbid that the meaning of slavery despotism and oppression shall survive the present clash of arrows!

By Edgar H. Webster, Principal Normal Dept. Atlanta. Univ.
Years and years ago, my son, before you were born, I was admiring a picture of roses. And I ventured a comment honest, simple and inartistic to my artist friend with me. And the comment was. "The picture is beautiful; every rose is perfect."
To this the artist friend replied, "True, every rose is indeed perfect; and that is the fatal defect of the picture. In looking at roses, you see only one rose, to which all the others contribute a setting. You may change your point of view and admire another rose." And I had had a lesson in art appreciation.
Later I heard a similar comment upon that wonderful painting of Rosa Bonheur, the famous painter of animals, "The Horse Fair," which hangs in the Metropolitan Museum in Central Park. As one looks at the picture, he sees that every horse is perfect; as a study of horses, the painting is a great success. But as a picture, the eye wanders from horse to horse, searching for a dominant element in the painting to which the other elements are contributory! but this the eye fails to find.
That was a brave company of youth that we saw off to the training camp that Tuesday afternoon. Laddie! Sixty men there were, and you among them, representing a great cause, and the feeling a great responsibility, eager to go. And we who gathered in your honor, your fathers mothers, friends, sharing in a sense your eagerness, were vividly conscious of certain elements in the picture which were not at the surface.
And first, we know that you, men, were starting to the training camp in response to a demand that you, yourselves had created. The officers' training camp at Fort Des Moines In., was granted in response to a petition of colored college youth, who finding the regulation camps closed to them, united in a demand to the government for a camp of their own. All honor to those college students, who, debarred by the limitation of numbers from going with you, bad by expressed willingness to go and sign the petition, given it force, and so had commanded the attention of the government at Washington.
We knew, secondly, my boy, that those who went to the camp, would be expected to do a year's work in three months. We understood the stress this would mean to your physique, your mentality and your character; we also knew that men in the other camps were falling to meet the demands, and we tremble while we hope for you. And our prayer was that, having for the first time in all history an equal chance with the other man, that you might make good.
And, Laddis, we were not ignorant of the dangers, physical, and moral that were sure to accompany and surround the camp. And we pray the prayer of the Master for his disciples, not that you would be taken out of the world, but that you might be kept from evil. We prayed that you might have clear vision to know the wrong, however attractive the guise, and shun it; that you might recognize the right however plain the garb and pursue it. And when the boys come back—if come back they do—may they come with clean bodies, clean minds, clean souls, Knights without fear and without reproach.
And this brought up the shadow, which whether we wished it or not, we knew was present. Some of us recalled the calorion cry of Sunday evening from the Scotch chaplain. "Meet me in Flanders, and we knew that some of you might meet him in Flanders, and might not come back. We also remembered the remark of the wise man on that same evening. "We are sending you forth, not to die for your country but to live for it." But some of us recalled a chapel talk when another wise man reminded us that going to war to kill is brutal; but that going to war with the willingness to be killed for a great cause, this glorifies war. And further, my son, do you recall that the last time you read the scriptures in public, you closed with that statement to the Master that sums up the entire gospel. "Greater love hath so man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friend." Whether you appreciate it or not, you are the men of whom Lincoln spoke at Gettysburg, the men who give "the last full measure of devotion" because you give yourselves.
There were then at that moment, Laddie, all the elements of a grand canvas; the subjective elements these to which I have alluded. The gave the color scheme. There were the objective elements, you, men, sixty of you; we, your friends, a crowd of us; the cars waiting which were to take you as they take others; and the dim, dingy, dusty old car-shed. There were lights and there were shadows; there was a foreground, the background and the middle distance. As each person has his own horizon in-
dependent of those of others; as each person has his own rainbow, a rainbow all to himself which no one else may share, so each of us compose the picture elements into a grouping of our own; and each of you, young men, was the centre of some picture. Oh, the glory of it, that the love of the universe is not centered upon a few! Each of you was supremely dear to some one!
And you, Laddie, you, my boy, were the dominant note of my picture. How could it be otherwise! I was with you when there came to you the first glimmering suggestion of a coming possibility. This, you put aside as foreign to righteous plans and ambitions along the lines you love. I saw the suggestion return to you again and again and yet again with an insistence that would not be gainsaid. And I was with you a disciple unasleep, when in your Gethsemane, you bowde in acceptance to the thing that must be; and I partook in a sense in your joy that came when you made the full surrender, the joy that comes to every man when he gives himself to the highest call. You and your fellows, may son, entered into the experiences of the Christ in the garden, when, we are told, "There appeared unto Him, an angel from heaven ministering unto Him."
That was a wonderful gathering that Tuesday afternoon in the old carhed. There were tears, but no weeping; there were hand-clasps, and such hand-clasps, but almost no words. In such moments the tongue is silent; the eye and the hand become eloquent. And so the great train, slowly but surely took you away from us. You wrote back, "It was a great send-off." It was more than that. It was a sacrament.
0. Righteous Father, with whom is no variabeness, neither shadow of turning; grant that these, thy sons, and our sons, shall not go forth upon a fruitless errand! Grant, we beeech Thee, that they and the hosts that battle with them shall accomplish that purpose which we believe is Thy purpose; and that their sacrifice and our sacrifice shall usher in the reign of universal brotherhood; that- Liberty, Democracy and Peace shall come, and shall come permanently to all nations and to all peoples that inhabit the earth.
B. F. ALLEN RETAINED
(Continued from Page Three) faculty to assist President Allen in carrying on this great work.
Part of the land belonging to Lincoln Institute has been let out to individuals and used for other purposes when it should have been used for the school. All of these practices have been carried on for years through politics. We hope Mr. Allen will surround himself with a cabinet of colored men who will go to the legislature and men in power and ask that these appropriations be made at the proper time and do it in a dignified and manly way, no howing or cringing, but go before the board and say that you are entitled to it and must have it that it should be the pride of the white people of Missouri to spend money for the education of colored youth.
We wish to call the attention of the people in Missouri to the most damnable school law ever put upon the statutes of any state in the Union. This law is unfair, impractical and should not be tolerated by the intelligent whites and blacks of Missouri. In our travels over the state of Missouri we found boys and girls in their late teens still in the third grade which is all on account of the school law enacted by prejudiced, ignorant and vicious white men who are sent to the legislature to do just the reverse, that is to enact laws for everybody alike. The idea of a law providing that there must be a regular average attendance of eight and if there was not that many the school is abandoned and the people who have the authority to abandon it are white men who are prejudiced and afraid of taxes therefore colored children are neglected and many parents are forced to go to towns where there are schools and quit the farm in order to educated their children.—Topeka Plaindealer.

The story of Hezekiah, son of Ahaz, who reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem and who did right in the sight of the Lord, working good and right and truth before the Lord his God and doing it with all his heart, so that there was none like him among all the kings of Judah either before him or after him in the matter of trusting in the Lord God of Israel (II Chron. xxix, 2; xxxl, 20; 21; II Kings xviii, 5), occupies eleven chapters of Scripture (II Kings xviii-xx; II Chron. xxxi-xxxii; Isa. xxxvi-xxxix). When we consider that these kings were spoken of as sitting on the throne of the Lord, to be kings for the Lord their God (I Chron. xxix, 23; II Chron. ix, 8), we see more clearly the monstrous sin of Ahaz and the great contrast in his son, whose name signifies the strength of Jehovah and which he so well illustrated during the greater part of his life. Our lesson chapter tells of the great passover which he kept for all Israel from Dan to Beersheba, and this feast always points us in three directions—to the night of the nation's birth, to Christ our passover crucified for us and to the rebirth of the nation in the future when they shall be gathered from all nations and the passover shall be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.
Let us look a little at the rest of his story before we take up the day's lesson. He began his good reign by opening the doors of the house of the Lord, which his wicked father had closed up, and by cleansing the temple of its filthiness, which occupied them sixteen days (xxix, 3-5, 17). He set the priests and Levites to work with the inspiring and encouraging words of xxix, 11, and, having restored the vessels which his father had cast away, he made atonement, for all Israel and had the true worship restored with plaies and gladness and refoiling (xxix, 24, 30, 36). Then they kept the great passover, sending invitations throughout all Israel and Judah urging all to turn to the Lord God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel and yield themselves unto the Lord (xxx, 1-9).
Although some laughed the invitation to scorn and mocked, there were those of Asher and Manassch and Zebulun who humbled themselves and came to Jerusalem to keep the feast (xxx, 10-12). They found such joy in keeping the feast of unleavened bread spake to the heart of all the Levites and the priests praising the Lord day by day and teaching the good knowledge of the Lord, and Hezekiah so spake to the heart of all the Levites, that the whole assembly took counsel to keep the feast seven days more, which they did with gladness, and there was not so great joy in Jerusalem since the time of Solomon. The praise and prayer were heard in heaven, the habitation of His holiness (xxx, 21-27). The contrast between this and the sin and unbelief and rebellion of Ahaz's reign helps us to understand just a little better the contrast between Israel's present unbelief and suffering and the time, drawing ever nearer, when they shall obtain joy and gladness and sorrow and sighing shall flee away (Isa. xxxv, 10; ii, 11).
After this great passover and time of rejoicing there followed a cleansing of the land as far as possible from idolatry and idols, and the brazen serpent which Moses had made in the wilderness and which Israel was now worshiping as an idol was destroyed (xxxi, 1; II Kings xviii, 4). Such a turning from idols to God to serve the Living and True God (I Thess. 1-9) was too much for the devil to take quietly, and so he stirred up Sennacherib and his hosts to go up against Jerusalem and with great blasphemy defy the Living God, the God of Israel. Hezekiah encouraged his princes and people with the words of chapter xxxii, 7, 8, saying, "With him is an arm of flesh, but with us is the Lord our God to help us and to fight our battles." Hezekiah, the king, and the prophet Isaiah prayed and cried to heaven as they spread the wicked letters before the Lord and asked the Living God so to work on behalf of His people and because of His name, which had been so reproached, that all the kingdoms of the earth might know that He was the Lord God, and He only (xxxi, 20; II Kings xix, 14-19).
Note the same great desire on the part of Joshua and David (Josh. iv. 24; I Sam. xvii. 46, 47). That God may be glorified should be the one and constant aim of every believer (Phil. i, 20; I Pet. iv, 11). That night the prayer of the king and the prophet was answered by the angel of the Lord passing over the Assyrian host and taking off the earth 185,000 men. Sennacharib returned to Nineveh and was slain by his own sons (II Kings xix, 35-37). The rest of Hezekiah's story is not so honoring to the Lord. He became sick unto death and was told by Isaiah that his time had come to die. But he prayed to the Lord with sore weeping, and the Lord added to his life fifteen years and gave him a wonderful sign on the sundial (Isa. xxxviii, 1-S). Some of his words on this occasion are very memorable.

PROTECT THE NEGRO
Rev. C. E. Silcox for Solving Problems Without Taste of Revolution
In 1776 the two distinguished Congregational ministers in this city, Dr Samuel Hopkins and Dr. Ezra Stiles, issued a joint manifesto to the American people against slavery. They said in the opening paragraphs of that manifesto that they considered it a prime time for publishing such a statement, since the colonies would be more apt to hold an invitation to grant liberty to the enslaved when they themselves were seeking to rid themselves of the tyranny of England.
Today we celebrate Independence day, at a time when the nation is engaged in a great war with the purpose of making the world "safe for democracy." And yet we read in Tuesday's papers that one great American city has been anticipating their celebration of this day by a wholesale attack on Negroes. It seems a fitting moment for us to stop and ask ourselves how far this sort of thing is going to make the world "safe for democracy."
It may be that an investigation will show that sinister influences which this nation has known altogether too well within the past three years are behind this outbreak, with the celebrated intention of fostering open revolution in the country and of forcing this republic to play the role of hypocrite in
THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE SATURDAY JULY 14, 1917
the eyes of the Teutonic peoples. One can almost imagine some of the things which will be said in the Reichstag about America and he expressed horror of the Armenian, Polish and Belgian atrocities! The St. Louis riots must not pass without comment. The whole moral weight of this so called Christian nation must be exerted to seek out, and to do to the death the men who are responsible for the murderous and disgraceful affair. If this is not done, then we may expect to hear that voice ringing in our cars for many a day: "Thou hypocrite, first cast the beam out of thine eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast-out themote out of thy brother's eye."
In loyalty to my own conscience, and in loyalty to the traditions of my notable predecessors, I am constrained to express thus mildly what I feel; and especially so, since only last Sunday morning, in the course of my sermon dealing with the benefits that would accrue to America from this war, I referred to the breaking down of race barriers and said: "Perhaps the loyalty of our colored folk to the stars and stripes in these days of crisis, and the response which they make to the nation's need, will do much to soften the hearts of those who delight in wholesale criticism of the entire race." But how, in the name of God Almighty, may we expect a reasonable loyalty from them, until from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and from the lantic to the Pacific, and from the forty-ninth degree of latitude to the Mexican frontier, this entire people resolve that by the grace of God we will cease to treat those of African descent as mere under-dogs, and give them at least the protection of our laws and the semblance of human consideration?
If this nation examines itself, it will see that it cannot tolerate much longer this race prejudice without falling into all sorts of moral inconsistencies. If we do not solve the problem,

R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute. Indications, are that Dr. Moton will speak to ten thousand people on this afternoon.

Beautiful Bust and Shoulders are possible if you will wear a scientifically constructed Bien Jolie Brassiere. The dragging weight of an unconfined bust so stretches the supporting muscles that the contour of the figure is spoiled.
Bien Jolie
(DE-AN JO-LEE)
BRASSIERES
put the bust back where it belongs, prevent the full bust from having the appearance of fabbiness, eliminate the danger of dragging muscles and confine the flesh of the shoulder giving a graceful line to the entire upper body. They are the daintiest and most serviceable garments imaginable—come in all materials and styles: Cross Back, Hook Front, Surplice, Band-ean, etc. Boned with "Walohn," the rustless boning—permitting washing without removal. Have your dealer show you Bien Jolie Brassieres, if not stocked, we will gladly send him, prepaid, samples to show you.
