The games will be pulled off at the ball park and a heated and exciting contest {s looked for. Both clubs are well up in the game and the teams are about evenly -matched, Last season the Eureka club won the social club league penant and it is stated that the Glants is the cracker-Jack team of Brunswick and its vicinity. The batterles for Bruns- wick will be Perry and Bowden, Hous- ton ‘and Williams, Scott and "Williams, for the Eurekas, Hampton and Howell, Lockhart and Kibbons. The line ups of both teams are strong and a large crowd should turn out at the three games and see the men in action. It is understood that many boosters of the Glants will come to the city and it is up to the Savannah fans to go out and cheer the home team to vic- tory. Preparations are being made to give the visitors a big send off while here and it is probable that aside from being entertained at the Eureka club rooms they will also be given a night at the Savannah Home Association. The series played at Brunswick on July 9, 10, and 11 was in favor of the Eurekas. they taking two ont of the three games. On their return they spoke very commendably of their opponents and their friends and of the royal manner in which they were enter- tained at the home of Mix< Lucy Lee who ‘was assited by a number of other ladles. The party is expected to reach the city on Monday morning and will be met by Manager R. TL. Miller and a delegation from the club. NATIONAL NEGRO TEACHERS ASSOCIATION TO MEET HERE Attendance Expected to be the ‘Largest Ever Recorded New Orleans, La.. July 16.—Those who attend’ the fourteenth annual ses- ston of the National Association of “Teachers in Colored’ School» at New Orleans. Ta., July 25-29, will have an opportunity to come in direct contact with valuable historic data as well as an opportunity to see three of the lead- ing educastonal institutions for Ne- groes in the South. It was here at New Orleans that the transfer of the Louisiana Province was made tp, the United States in 1808. -The;sroom Is still preserved and the spot: on, which and the table around whieh the-agree- ment was made can be seen by visitors. ‘The *spof on which the battle of New Orfean« was fought by Jackson, in which the Negroes took such an: im- portant part, Is of interest to visitors from all sections of the’tountry. The old French market still has’ its at- tractions. ‘The three institutions for the Jedu- cation of Negroes of the’ South are Straight University, which ts fostered by the American Bisstonaty Assocja- tion; the New Orleans University, un- der the direction of the Freedman’s Aid Soctety, and Xavier College, under the auspices of the Catholle ‘church, which occupies the position and in other respects the place of the former Southern University which has been removed to Baton Rouge. 'Teland Uni- versity, which for many years was under the erection of the American Baptist Home Missionary Society and the site of which. will be of interest, has been recently removed to Alexan- dria, This school has also figured greatly in the educational history of Louisana. . As to attendance at the seston to be held here, reports come up to us that the Mississippi State ‘Teachers’ Asso- ciation which held its mecting last weéek, voted to come in two special - car parties. Texas will also have its special oar from Houston, while Ala- bama will bring {ts delegation form- ing sepeiat car parties at Birmingham and Montgomery. .

Lindsay As a rule people usually think of businesses with the same delight or dis- dane as they think of the promoters behind it. Seeing the enterprises, as operated by members of the race in this community from that view point, we make bojd to say, the promoters of the Negro enterprises hereabout have mnch reason for genuine rejoicing. Take for example, if you please, the Savannah Tribune, which publication owns its two story mgdern brick build- Ing, with figst class oltice ncowmoda- tions on the second floor, which is Tented at reasonable rates to Insiness end professional men of the race; add- ed to that fact, it has on its first floor, its editorial and store rooms, in which are kept envelopes. stationery, bank books, reveipt books, lodge and soclety paraphernalia, badges. butters ete. Tn the rear of the editorial, rooms, is the book binding and job printing depart- ment, the work of which, for the most part fs done on higleclass, modern machinery, The latter department is in charge of an expert in Ins line, who has under him some five,or six skilled young men, who have Proven, to be in- dispensable assets to the business, On the upper floor of The Tribune building ‘are the dental parlors of Dr. A. S. LaFayette, an estimable young professional man ‘who is rapldly work- ing into the confidence of the public. His parlors are well appointed and hix work is cf a high standard. Leaving The Tribune oftice, coming north on West Broad street, you will next come to the branch of the North Carolina Mutual & Provident Asso- ciation. which office and force are in charge of and under the supervision of Iocal Manager W. J. Kennedy, Jr., ‘than whon no finer young business man ever walked the streets of Savan- nab. On the ground floor are the offices of Dr. L. E,-Martih, a barber- shop and a second hand furniture store. Dr. G. W, Smith also hag offices on the second floor of this building. ” The office of Dr. C.

On leaving the latter building, coming back to West Broad street on the north side of Gwinnett you come tu the well appointed offices of City physician Dr. F. 8. Belcher. In the next block, just north of the business last mentioned, you will next come to the beautiful two story brick building of the Savannah Pharmacy Company. which is oceupied by a fine coterie of, young Negro business men, who are causing their competitors of the other racent to sit up and take notice. Among the business men and racial enterprises domiciled in. this fce Savings Bank, which is managed in a business-like way by Fleming: D.

From the announcement of the plan to impose this injustice on the resi- dents west of West Broad street, the colored people were up in arms against ‘the outrage, and at once began a sys? tematic’ crusade and attack on .the movement. ‘They operated through a committee of Negro ministers ang laymen, chosen from the Nattondl Association for the Advancement’ of Colored People, under whose direg- tion the fight was officially waged. and from the two ministers’ untons. Early in the plans, the committee, laid its case, in detail, by letter, be fore the best citizens of Savannah, and in this way sought to create a strong background of public sentiment against which to pitch its fight, Hundreds of letters of assurance of sympathy and support were received. The support of Judge SB, Adams, Savannahs lead- ing citizen, was curly enlisted, and it was his brilliant and incisive ad- dress before conneil which demoraliz~ ed and routed the enemy. The Committee of NineZheld many conferences with citizens and officials, aid conducted a crosetire of written communications ayith varions city of- ficials including the Mayor and the Chief of Volice. The Chief of, Police was determined? upon bis course to place the disreputable women among the best Negro residents, and an- nounced this to the committee of nine after the committee had protested at same length. setting up the unfair- Hess, injustice and unwisdem of the change, The committee of colored men suc- ceeded in interesting and arousing a stroug delezation of white citizens in the neighboring territory who render ed z00d service in the fight. Their petition and protest was pre- sented to council at the meeting at which the petition from the committee of nine was read. In a series of articles, editorials and running accounts, the Savannah Trib- une has carcied the discussion of this aaiter into nearly évery home in the city, including the homes of thousands of whitespersons, und ‘the’ city was aroused tastmever before on a great public social question. Its article “Unloading the Tenderloin,” provoked wide comment both in the city and throughout. the state and South. letters came into this office compli- |menting the editorial entitled “Savan- nah’s Crime, and on the day before the fight in councll, a representative from the white protesting committee, sought to purchase “erery left-over ‘Tribune in order that this iHluminat: ing article might he placed into the hands of the white residents who would have been affected by the change. ‘Those papers were given him free of charge and distributed by messengers, The splrit of determination which actuated the people was plainly vis- ible In the eountenances’ of the vast throng of citizens who assembled be- fore counell last Wednesday afternoon. Representatives of the “Women” were there, too, but afraid to show their hands for fight. The citizens of Savan- nah, white and black, were determined to awert their feeling of outraged jus- tice in the affair. to the extent of ex- hansting every available remedy in the law to prevent and abate this des- plenble mennce. Representatives of the tenderloin saw it, and retreated to corer. It demonstrates that public sentiment is the greatest of all eivic weapons and is more powerful than express law. . 7 | The success of the fight Is a great tribute to the loyalty, intellizence and Iusiness gcumen of the ‘colored peo- ple of this city. It is a distinct com- pliment to their sense of selfrespect jand honor.

A committee of Negro churchmen, taxpayers and citizens wrote to the Mayor inquiring whether this was bey ing done at the instance of the Mayor. City Council or other city authority, and protesting at the indiznits. The Mayor replied that the matter was in the hands of the Chief of Police to determine. Cour commtttee called upon the chief, protesting and furnish: Ing the full history and information of the section in question, He as- sured v4 that the matter had been determined upon and would be car- ried out as originally planned, setting up certain untenable and unjustifiable reasons for his course. ' Refore making any more. we went to the cere and expense of making a cen- sus of the peopl and conditions in- volved inuthe proposed . district, and found -among others the following facts: (1) That Negro residents and Lome-owners first settled and preced- cd all others there. (2) That out of a total of 811 fam- ilies there, 788 or @5.7 per cent are Negroes, tthere being just 33 whites composed somewhat of corner-stode- ‘keepers. - (3) That 121 of these Negroes ac- tually own their homes, (4) That pursuant to the plans of the Police Department, many Negro renters have been and are now being caused to vacate the better houses, and that these houses are being remodel- ed, equipped with baths, etc., prepara- tory to receiving these women. , It is neediess for us to suggest to you the rank injustice, the glaring and ruthless invasion of common right, ‘which this thing entails. We pur- posely omit much of the detalt. Ag a last resort, we now appeal to you, charged with the grave responst- bility ef protecting the citizens of this community and, further accountable ultimately for the administration of the Police Department, to prevent this wrong, and to cause to be removed from dur section the few women of ill- fame who now reside there. . We should be glad of the privileze of presenting our case, fully, in person before you. + Respretfully. , = Committee of Nine Reprecenting the Baptist Ministers’ Union. Revs, T. J. Goodall, J. S.

It is true, whether be in scene, environment, in fashions, or in food. Variety is one thing which we possess in fashions this season; variety in silhouette, in materials, in trimmings. Smart clothes renge in design from the high waisted styles of the First Empire, through fluffy frills of the Mid-Victorian era and draperies almost pannier-like, "peg-tops," and last but not least, straight hanging models which are compared to the Egyptian garments of a very ancient O MECAR Heather Jersey Develops This Military Model dynasty. They range from the smartest of low-necked evening frocks of silk and satin to the simplest of ginghams, and from these to the trimmest of service suits. Under the name of service suits come a number of military models of which the sketch illustrated is a good example. Instead of being made of khaki this suit is made of heather jersey, which is a color mixture in which brown is flecked with deep pink, green and lavender. An inverted pleat in the back of the coat adds to its style. Another military model which I saw very recently departed widely from the military in its development, for it was made entirely of blasam-green tussur, a reminder of green leaves and cool breezes in a Robin Hood forest. Although every one's mind is running more or less toward serving the country and very naturally toward costumes which would be practical for O. MCCLELL A Smart Frock of Taffeta and Organdie any task that one might choose, there are also chaming frocks for other occasions. Taffeta and foulard frocks are a requirement of every woman's wardrobe whether she has a large or small one, for a dress of either of the ematerials is always ready to wear; it does not go to teh laundry and is not feazed by fogs and dews. Although taffeta and foulard can not in themselves be said to be new this season, their trimmings of organdie make them so. Frills, bands and facings of organdie give an alrness to these frocks which is summery and cool. Satin is also being trimmed with organdie. In fact this might be called an organdie season, for it does its "bit" on silks and satins as well as on the humble gingham. In the second sketch is shown a frock UNION MME.

The collar is trimmed with rows of hand-run stitching of heavy silk in the color of the plaid. Every once in a while some ingenious person, running out of new ideas, dips back into her girlhood for something old to be made new. In some such way as this the rick-rack braid of years ago has reappeared on very modern dresses, especially that all-popular, all-practical gingham frock. Sometimes it trims collars and, cuffs, sometimes it edges tucks besides, while again it is added to the bottom of a skirt. In Paris, it is said, that the girls once working in the laundries have abandoned them for work in the munition plants. To this is attributed the popularity of black lingerie. Yes., I said it, black lingerie! Black corsets, chemies and even black combinations. Silk volle, crepe deChine and ponge seem to be the materials largely employed, also the glove silk which has been so popular in white and the dainty colors. A black combination which, I saw displayed in the window of an exclusive shop had a corset cover of silk volle and a triple skirt of soft silk. The corset cover was embroidered in black but had pink ribbon straps over the shoulders. French embroidered lingerie now has a rival in the Filipino hand-embroidered garments. These latter have been growing in popularity, and since the war and the scarcity as well as high cost of the French underwear there has been a ewerving toward the revival of hand embroidery. With sports clothes, service suits and simplicity frocks come suitable footwear. Low-heeled half shoes with sensible lasts are worn for sports. Some of these shoes have spring heels, others have, three-quarters of an inch high, and often the soles and heels are of rubber. This does not mean that the foot comes in contact with the rubber, however, for there is a thickness of leather between the outside sole and the foot. White is worn a great deal for summer, Gray is very fashionable, and, of course, brown and black are standard. For wearing with elaborate afternoon frocks are low shoes with high heels, either French or Cuban-Louis. EVANGELICAL MINISTERS' UNION The Evangelical Ministers' Union met on the 17th at Ashbury M. E. church. Dr. C. C. Cargile, the president, appointed Rev. Jas. Jackson to conduct the opening services. The Apostles' Creed was recited after which Rev. Jackson led in prayer. Rev. W. W.

Among The Masons The Holy of Holies We read of the "Holy of Holies" in the great Temple of Solomon as the most sacred place of the magnificent building. There rested the Shekinah of the living God. There the high priest entered on the Day of Atonement—the most solemn of the Hebrew holidays, to make atonement for his people. Though the sins of Israel were as scarlet, they became white as wool through the intercession of the High Priest. In Masonry, the "Holy of Holles" has a significant history, known and understood by all well-versed craftsmen. Within the heart of every loyal Mason there is also a "Holy of Holles," a place where ought to rest the light from the Divine Presence. It should be the place whence originates every pure and noble thought, every high ideal, every exalted aspiration, every incentive to right living, every impulse that will lead away from sin and towards God and heaven. Let us cherish this Holy of Holles of our heart. Let us guard it with jealous care against the intrusion of impure thoughts. Let us defend it with deathless fidelity against the contaminations of the world. Let us keep it undefiled as men and as Masons. --- Where concord dwells, there will Masonry flourish. The summer is over. Now for a revival of Masonic activity. The light of Masonry will yet shine in lands where darkness and ignorance now reign. Spread Masonic literature in your lodges. It will bring about a great revival in Masonry. Harmony among officers, and members means success and that the spirit of Masonry will prevail. One Lesson One lesson, says a writer in an exchange, I have learned that all should lear. I fear that some among you pro-perous and successful, educated and surrounded by every comfort, with congenial environment in your private lives, do not fully realize what Masonry means to others less happily situated. To some it is all the education they have; its ritual their only instruction in the high ideals and finer things of life, and that ritual clothed in language that is to them sublime. Many of them look forward all the month to the lodge meeting. Its comfortable room and its genial companionhip and the bright spots in many meager lives of toil and discomfort.

Which of us would knowingly send one poor brother home wounded and sick at heart? And yet I fear we often thoughtlessly do, and never know it. —Trestle Board. AN OPEN LETTER TO BAPTIST MINISTERS Dear Brethren: You may think that I am up for a great fight, but I would not have you believe that fighting is my mission, "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places," Eph. 6:12. Knowing that this too, should be your high aim, hence I address you as brethren. I would like to know why it is that we frequently have a Baptist minister who will bite off more than he can masticate, and swallow down to save his life. I speak particularly of Rev. J. B. Green, D. D., field secretary of the National Baptist Convention. I understand, that the duties laid upon him by this national body of Baptists are to travel over the states holding mini-terial institutes, in order to bring about a more proficient ministry among the Baptist people. This plan, I am sure, on the part of the convention, should be commended. But, I ask again, upon reaching Savannah, why did not the Dr. Green stick to his work? Why lay aside the duties placed upon him by the convention, and assail the Seventh Day Adventists, and the doctrines taught by them, and especially, make assertions which he nor the convention could stand up to? Dr. Green did not only make reflecting assertions, but indirectly invited me to attend his institute, permitted me to ask him questions on his subject, "The Two Laws," and then because he could not answer me with the Bible, as I demanded a Bible answer, allowed him-elf to be used as a "cat's paw", and as a thoughtless two-year old boy would rush into a circle saw, he challenged me for a debate, saying that he had a cannon to fire at me. Let me ask, please, where is the doctor's cannon? Did he expect the Convention to furnish him with one or did he try his big gun, and found out that it would not fire? He even appointed Rev. N. H. Whitmire, Rev. J. H. Edwards, Rev. M. King, Rev. J. W. Spaulding, Rev. Biggins and Rev. L.A. Johnson a committee, who came to my church to arrange and perfect with me, plans for the debate. After this committee disagreed over the thought of what the collection might be a second committee was appointed of the following named brethren: Rev. N. H. Whitmire, chairman: Rev. J. W. Spaulding, secretary: Rev. THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE, SATURDAY JULY 21ST, 1917 M. King, Rev. A. D. Dunbar, Rev. P. W. Wrenn and Rev. L. A. Johnson. On Saturday, July 7th, this committee passed and adopted, withd he advice of Dr Green, propositions, and resolutions declaring the debate on, and would be called on July 31st, to August 3rd. EX-PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT... CHAMPION OF HUMAN RIGHTS His Stand Against East St. Louis Murders Calls Forth' Strong Resolutions, Narragansett Pier, R. I., July14th—A. C. Griggs of Farmville, Va., delivered an address here Monday night On Monday July 9th, the question of the debate was brought before the Baptist Ministers' Union. The Union, I am informed, demanded that the Dr. Green call off the debate. Only four ministers stood up with a desire to see and know the truth of the questions to be discussed. They were Rev. Whitmire Rev. Spaulding, Rev. Johnson and Rev. Dunbar. The ministers' unoin, however, is to be highly commended for discouraging the Field Secretary of the National Baptist Convention from going through with the debate, feeling and knowing that he was wholly unprepared to go up against such a brace as the one he was about to strike. The statements made by the Dr. Green concerning God's law of the Ten Commandments, the Seventh day, being a Jewish sabbath, and Sunday the first day, being the Christian sabbath, are malicious falsehoods. He cannot prove them, neither can any other Baptist minister prove them. Dr. Green said, "God has sent me here to set the people of Savannah straight on this sabbath and Sunday question." Brethren, I am one who desires to be set straight on this question, and I have had this desire for for more than twenty years, and during this time I have been looking for just such a man as Dr. Green professes to be. And if God has sent him here to set the people of Savannah straight, why not do as God said to the Prophet, Jonah, "Preach unto it the preaching that I bid thee." And now to the people of Savannah, you may have a desire to be set more straight concerning the sabbath and Sunday than what the bible tells, and the doctor may be able to do it, but you surely will have him to catch before he does it. Brethren, I beseech you, therefore by the mercies of God, study your bible. Don't keep the people blind, fearing it will expose you. Don't be the blind guides and dumb dogs of Isaiah 56:10-12. May God help us all to study more. "Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." 2nd Timothy, 2:15.

CHAMPION OF HUMAN RIGHTS His Stand Against East St. Louis Murders Calls Forth' Strong Resolutions, Narragansett Pier, R. I., July14th—A. C. Griggs of Farmville, Va., delivered an address here Monday night July, 9th, at the Union A. M. E. church in which he hailed Ex-president Roosevelt as the great champion of human rights, a fearless leader and a true democrat. The speaker said that he hoped for that speech made by the Ex-president at Carnegie hall, New York, in which he accused the labor unions of being at the bottom of the awful race riots in East St. Lolius in which scores of innocent Negroes lost their lives, would prove a thorn in the consciences of those who would trample the weak and helpless citizens of a common country, and stated further, that from every Negro organization should come expressions of gratitude to the one American who has dedicated his soul to all that is best and greatest Following the address, the speaker and Paul Robeson were authorized to draft a letter to the Ex-president on behalf of the church and friends. Below is given a full text of that letter, endorsed by representatives of Howard University, Lincoln University, Halnes Institute, Virginia Norman and Industrial Institute and Rutgers College, who are at the Pier. "We, the members of Union A. M. E. church, Narragansett Pier, R. I., express our unqualified admiration with a deep sense of gratitude for that uncompromising stand you took on the East St. Louis riot, when Mr. Gompers would excuse the murder of unarmed and defenseless American citizens whose sweat is in her soil and whose blood has crimsoned her fields of strife. We deplore the outrage on the women and children in East St. Louis and are ashamed of Mr. Gmpers who would conduce mob violence in the state that holds the ashes of liberty's most fearless champion. We are not surprised at your most timely administered censure of the labor leader for so unstate-manlike a declaration. "You have always been a man loyal to your convictions and firm in your principle. We hail you as the foremost, leader in the affairs of this republic and we hope you may again wield the scepter that America might become a true democracy where every citizen is awarded his inalienable right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Though the northern economic pull and the southern oppressive push have lured us to the home of the Union Blue, what was accorded us in East St. Louis strikes at the very pupil of our eye.

We refer specifically to the concentration of all seventh and eighth grade work at the Cuyler street school as against the old and regular plan of having the full grammar course at each school building. We do not know the purposes governing the decision to make the change It certainly must have come, however, within the grounds of efficiency or economy, and we have observed and studied the effects and results of the scheme from these two standpoints. After studying the case conscientiously and carefully for the two years of its tenure, we are frank to assert that we find no sufficient justification for it, while we find many reasons to be urged against it. The inconvenience of changing the environment of boys and girls at the sixth grade period of their grammar school course has worked undue disadvantage to both teacher and pupil, to say nothing of the inconvenience caused in the pupils' home. At such a critical period, the change is diverting, discompleting, discombeding and demoralizing to the great majority. This is the ex parte testimony of the teachers themselves. Some pupils, even who, but for the change would not drop entirely out of school, from inconvenience, lack of spirit to adapt themselves to new conditions and surroundings and fresh feeling of having "finished" school. Cases of this sort have been noted. Continuity, conventionality, orderlines and regularity of presentation are fundamentals in educational methods and pedagogy. These ideas are defeated in the change, "the break" at the sixth year. We believe that investigation will show upon the average, a weakening in scholarship and a retregression in contact, wrought by the change. It would be illogical and unnatural if there were not. The testimony in individual cases is that this is glaringly true. Another and conspicuous ill result, is the fact that since the inauguration of this new order of things, there has been a complete failure of pupils to pursue their education at institutions for higher training. In former years, special cars were needed to carry grammar school graduates to various colleges and universities in this and neighboring states. We have little of this now, and the story is most significant. It can only mean a loss of interest in self-improvement in the line of education, and must have a direct and definite cause. By a process of elimination, we can trace the cause to none other than this "break" in the grammar school course. This advent of new comers has its painful effect upon students already domiciled in the school of complete course. It is disconcerting and demoralizing to the discipline and scholarship of these. This is the testimony of those who have observed it, studiously. It has its bad effect upon the teacher concerned, in increased responsibility of training and governing. This is the record. THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE, SATURDAY JULY 21ST, 1917 Then the mere inconvenience of location, in accessibility and the like, are sufficient to condemn the plan, and there are many minor objections of overcrowding, etc. which it is not necessary to enumerate. We believe that if the progressive present head of the schools had been in charge, the thing could not have been done, and very probably would not have even been proposed. The inadequacy and poor equipment and facilities of some of the schools can be no sufficient warrant for the sacrifice of effectiveness and discipline and the destruction of mental temperament and mind-character entailed. Weakness of any sort must be met by a remedy, specifically for that weakness, not by substitutions of other weaknesses or subterfuge. We believe that the matter has to some extent been overlooked, and, at least, it has not had the studied observation which such an untoward experiment deserves. We think that the board of education and the superintendent may well give this matter due consideration. We believe that no better service can be rendered the colored children of Savannah, at this time, than a restoration of the old order of things, a change back to the old plan of a full grammar course at each school house. The triumph of the Committee of Nine in its light on the white "tenderloin" problem in this city has a value and significance far surpassing the service rendered the interests directly concerned. It illustrates, materially and emphatically, how great things may be accomplished by carefully marshaled facts and resources and intelligent direction. The committee was particularly representative of the colored folk of Savannah. It represented all the christian and religious interests, the fraternal interests, the business interests, the high and the low, the landlord and the tenant; it represented the law abiding citizens of Savannah, irrespective of class and condition. The committee went about its deliberations, cautiously, respectfully, patiently and courageously, always giving due reverence and consideration to all interests. Never once did it veer from its well-laid plan of attack. The fight had threatened to be long and bitter because of the many interests affected and the several groups of peoples arrayed on the one side or the other, and further because of the grim determination of all. The complete collapse of those representing or directing the interests of the women of the underworld was not quite to be expected. It was dramatic in its failure and its weakness, and shows the extreme cowardice and perversion of the champions of social wrongs before an outraged, aroused and militant public consciousness. The great masses of right-thinking citizens in this christian city, white and black, had been aroused and keyed up to a keen realization of the great wrong which was about to be perpetrated, to the great, shame of the city's hand in the affair, and to the lasting disgrace and chagrin which must come to the people if they should suffer it to be done. There had been discovered a well developed and well organized traffic and market in the souls and bodies of depraved men and women. The "bulls" and "bears" held sway in as busy commercial glory and commotion as ever did they in the great trading exchanges. One "hugh" merchant had "cornered" the market of preparation and comfort, and was "plunging" in a real-state way in the market place. The plans were all knocked in the head most abruptly, after the masterly address and memorial of Judge Adams before the committee of the whole of city council. The fight had been won, by good citizens, for good citizenship, in a good city. The hundreds of good, clean, moral homes of Negroes which were about to be contaminated by the surrounding presence of women of the underworld have been saved by the decree which council passed forcing not only the miserable wretches of harlotry who have been living in the area west of West Broad street and between Gwinnett and Park avenue to move, but ousting also those from the east side who had recently moved to this area and preventing others from infesting it. The results achieved by the committee in conjunction with the white committee which also was opposed to the dumping of the underworld denizens in this section of the city, are the most far reaching and important which have recently attended any endeavors by our people here. It is a victory which is not to be measured in dollars and cents, but in morals, that kind of victory which means happiness and contentment and high homelike surroundings to generations yet unborn. THE COLONEL-AGAIN The outburst of Col. Roosevelt at Carnegie hall, recently, upon the occasion of welcoming the Russtan commission to America, is characteristic of the high courage and integrity of the distinguished ex-president. There are few men in American life, who all the circumstances considered, would have had the moral courage to inject such a discordant note into such a situation. It laid bare before the Russian emissaries that boasted American democracy and fair play are not "translated into acts", but are more a matter of claim. We are willing to berate injustice on foreign shores, by other peoples, and to applaud democratic ideals, elsewhere, and claim them for themselves. We are not courageous and fair enough, not conscientious and honest enough to establish and guarantee these high principles at home. Among the conspicuous results of the great war will be a greater grechprocal knowledge of the internal affairs of all the nations of the earth. THE PLASTERERS' STRIKE The demand for more pay on the part of the Negro plasterers of the city, pay commensurate with the character and quality of the work they do, with the ever increasing cost of living, met with success as it deserved to. White men, who, upon the average, do less work per day, than their fellow Negro laborers, were getting 50 cents per day more, and it would have been short-visioned and unmanly for these Negro men not to deal with this matter. They did not "strike." Through their representative, they took up the matter, intelligently and properly, with the proper authority, and their demands were met. The case illustrates a very important principle in human life, but it teaches a larger lesson in the struggle of a disunited and suspecting people. It teaches that intelligent, organized effort, based upon right, will usually reap its reward; that one's case, properly and effectively presented, will command its due consideration; and that industrial competition cannot long be stayed and defeated by color prejudice. We, of all peoples, need organization; we have suffered through lack of cooperation of efforts and coordination of interests; we have failed because our case has been poorly presented or misrepresented. It is gratifying that we seem to be overcoming these too apparent weaknesses. The "Tenderloin King" expanded around $5,000 on the old properties in the "Bama", incidently, providing better housing conditions for somebody.

We feel thy kisses o'er us still, Thou unseen angel of our life; We hear thy hymns around us thrill, An undertone to care and strife. Thy tender eyes upon us shine As from a being glorified. Till we are thine and thou are mine And we forget that thon hast died. We almost lose each vain regret In visions of a life to be. But, Darling, art thon living yet. And dost thou still remember us? The spring times bloom, the summers fade. The winters blow along our way; But over every light or shade Thy memory lives by night and day. We sometimes think thy soul comes boot. From over the dark and silent stream Where last we watched thy shining track To those green hills of which we dream. Thy loving arms around us twine, Our cheeks bloom younger in thy breath. Till thou art mine and we are thine, Without a thought of pain or death; And yet, at times, our eyes are wet With tears for her we cannot see.

SMITH and Surgeon of Women and Children also PAGE FIVE Phones 1522 1439 --- PAGE SIX NEWS OF THE NATIONS CAPITOL Washington, D. C., July 17.—Joy is expressed upon all sides because Lieut- Col. Charles Young is not likely to retire from active service in the United States army. Whether he is on the active or on the retired list, however, he will command a regiment of colored troops of the state of Ohio. A Negro hero will be one of the possibilities on the firing line in France. Lieut-Col. Young, of the 10th U. S. Cavalry as is well-known, has been under treatment at the General Army Hospital at t he Presidio of California, San Francisco. He was said to be suffering from excessively high blood pressure, and an examining board had recommended his retirement from the active list of the army. A protest went up from the country, and it is stated that the gallant officer was, to be given another chance, with a second board to look him over with greater care. In the meantime, however, an order has come for Lieut-Col. Young to report to the adjutant general of the state of Ohio at Columbus for assignment to the command of a regiment of colored troops raised in that state for service in the war with Germany. The detail was made by the Secretary of War at the request of the Ohio state authorities. The Ninth Battalion of the Ohio National Guard, now to be expanded into a full regiment from the registration cards, has long been regarded as one of the 'crack' military units in the country, being rivaled from a racial standpoint by only the Eighth Illinois. Lieut. Col. Young needs no introduction to any American audience. He was graduated from the United States Military Academy at West Point in 1889, and stands No. 14 in the list of lieutenant colonels of cavalry. He is the only colored man who has ever reached so high a grade in the United States army. He commanded a squadron of the 10th Cavalry with the Pershining punitive expedition in Mexico and his record in the rmy is without ablemish. During the Spanish American war, he served as a major of the Ohio Infantry, a colored regiment, and afterwards was sent to Liberia to organize the national army of that republic. He also saw service of a special nature in Haiti. It has been claimed that his health has not been good of late and, as stated above, he was examined for retirement. The report, together with a probability of a second examination, is now before the War Department. In the meantime, he has been order into active service, until the report of the second examination is made. The officer states he never felt better in his life. A volume of protests against his retirement was forwarded to the War department and to members of Congress. The race did not wish to lose the luster that the presence of this brilliant young man would be given it at the front, and it was decided that he be given a chance to win whatever fame that might come to him in the regular performance of his duties. In certain contingencies. Young has a chance to rise to a colonelcy and then to a brigadier-generalship. In connection with the new order, it is stated that his assignment to serve with the National Guard troops of Ohio will stand, regardless of whether he is on the active or retired list of the regular army. The colored people of the country are watching the outcome with burning anxiety. Miss Lulu M. Butler, of Galveston, a songbird of the highest quality, is winning deserved laurels at the hands of the cultured people of Washington. She is appearing in a series of recitals at the various churches in the city and her repertoire includes a vast array of songs, sacred and secular, all of which she renders in truly artistic style. --- Mrs. Booker T. Washington passed through the city last Tuesday night, en route from Tuskegee Institute to Asbury Park, where she is to spend a month in rest and recuperation. She will fill a number of speaking engagements in the early fall, and will make a specialty of urging housewives of the race to aid the nation in the work of food conservation and domestic economy. Mrs. Georgia Douglass Johnson, the poet, writer, composer and literatude, in addition to her many other duties, has been taking a course in library management at Howard University. Her recent poem on "The Exodus" showing in delightful meter the reasons why the Negro is leaving the Southland, has attracted much favorable comment at the hands of the best critics of both races hereabouts. --- Miss Corinne E. Martin has been given a permanent appointment as assistant director of penman-bip in the public schools and Dr. P. M. Murry has been assigned as a medical inspector to act in the absence of Dr. Albert S. Ridgley, who is in the army. It is currently rumored that 90 percent of the graduates of the colored Department of Business' Practice of the public schools 'fell down' hard in the examinations for stenographers and typewriters for the government service. It is stated that the instruction is far below the standard of the white business department, whose pupils are coming out of the civil service examinations with flying colors. Col, Giles B. Jackson is in town. The thing he had up his sleeve this time was a scheme to have the federal government put a stop to the migration of colored people from the South. The publication of this nefarious plot to ask "ole massa" to interfere with the freedom of colored Americans has aroused no small degree of indignation among our thinking element and the Virginia "walking delegate" for the bourbons is being "cussed out" in language that would require asbestos paper to filly chronicle. The government gave out a statement some time ago that it had no legal right to interfere with the movement of any class of people who saw fit to change their habitation to better their condition. Col. Giles' latest scheme is a failure of the fattest variety. . . . . Bishop. John Hurst, who has been resting at Freedmen's Hospital, following a nervous collapse from over work, has gone to his home in Baltimore, greatly improved. --- Cards have been received here from Mr. and Mrs. Calvin Boger of Aurora, Ill., announcing the marriage of their daughter, Miss Cassandra Adelphia Boger, to Lieut Joseph Gardiner Holmes. The wedding took place April 9th Lieut. and Mrs. Holmes have established their residence at 53 Concord street, Frammingham, Mass. . . . The Finance Department of the A. M. E. church is erecting a flew storehouse and garage at the rear of the headquarters. . . . Robert L. Middleton, a well-known undertaker, has been sentenced to six months in jail for false pretenses in connection with checks of unlawful origin. The authorities say they have been working for a long tife to "get the goods on Middleton." on account of these practices. Miss Clarissa Scott, the accomplished daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Emmett J. Scott, of Tuskegee Insti., is spending a few weeks in this city as the guest of Dr. and Mrs. A. M. Curtis at their summer camp at Arundel-on-the-Bay. Miss Scott is a student at the famous Bradford Academy in Massachusetts, and throughout her period there, she has made an exceptionally brilliant record. Mrs. Andie G. Lewis, the poplar and efficient teacher, is acting as postmistress at Arundel-on-the-Bay. Mrs. Lewis, besides being a capable educator and a pain-taking public official, is an actress of pronounced talont. Miss Florence M. Baker and Mrs. Georgia Jones Tucker have been appointed to desirable positions in the government printing office, and Mrs. G. Luther Sadgwar has accepted a good place at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. Miss Gladys Cave is also an appointee at the Bureau. Mrs. Minnie Possett Morton, of New York, formerly of this city and Cincinnati, is to visit Mr. and Mrs. Harry M. Arnold in the near future. She will be accompanied by Miss Cora Hardin Turner, of New York. The District of Columbia is to furnish 929 men as its quota of the 657,000 men to be drawn from the registration list for the new national army. Mr. A. E. Manning, the globe-trotting editor of the Indianapolis World, returning Sunday from New York City and left Wednesday for his home in the Hoosier capital. He will make his commercial headquarters in Chicago for the next few months. Very little interest was manifested this year in the school commencements. Ordinarily, the graduating exercises of the high and normal schools are the big events of the year, but, because of the general disaffection with the administration of the schools, they were passed over with indifference this year. Rev. L. C. Sheafe, the singing evangelist, is conducting a series of tent meetings at 10th and V streets. Dr. Sheafe is now making his headquarters at Los Angeles, Cal. The Women Wage-Earners' Association, to increase its effectiveness, has become an incorporated body. The association has leased the building at 704 T street, as permanent headquarters and already the benefit of such a clearing house for colored female workers is being felt throughout the District. Public meetings are being held every Sunday and are being addressed by men and women of national influence. THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE. SATURDAY JULY 21ST, 1917 SUNDAY SCHOOL. Lesson V.—Third Quarter, For July 29, 1917. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson, Isa. lv, 1-13—Memory Verses, 1, 2—Golden Text, Isa. lv, 6—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. The last part of Isaiah, chapters xl to lxvl, may be said to begin and end with comfort for his people, Israel, in connection with His coming in glory (xl, 1, 2, 10, 11; lxvl, 13, 15, 18), and as will be the overthrow of their enemies there is an easy connection between the last lesson and this. These last twenty-seven chapters of Isaiah are easily divided into three nines, the first and second of which end with the same words, "No peace, saith the Lord or saith my God, to the wicked" (xlvill, 22; lvill, 21). Our lesson today is in the middle nine, and the middle chapter of this nine is the fifty-third, which tells of the only way of peace for any sinner or for all sinners. The next chapter tells of God's unchanging loving kindness for Israel and of their future establishment in righteousness by their Redeemer, the God of the whole earth (lv, 5-14). Today's lesson chapter is a cry to all who thirst to come to the God of Israel, the fountain of living waters (Jer. 11, 13). All that is represented by living water, wine and milk has been provided fully at infinite cost and is offered freely to whosoever will, according to Rev. xxl, 6; xxvll, 17; John iv, 14; vi, 37. Love cannot be bought, nor can any of the gifts of God, but He says, "I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely" (Hos. xxv, 4; S. of Sol. vill, 7; Rom. ill, 24). Spending money for that which is not bread reminds us of His words to the 5,000, "Labor not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of Man shall give unto you" (John vi, 27). The words "Hearken diligently unto Me, * * * hear and your soul shall live" (verses 2, 3), are very like John v, 24, where we learn that hearing and believing His word give everlasting life and the assurance of not coming into judgment for our sins. In the study of all prophecy we must remember that His thoughts are first for Israel and then for all nations, but there is always a message for every individual believer, whether Jew or gentile, as we have already seen. The sure mercies of David take us to the covenant ordered in all things and sure which comforted David in his dying hours (II Sam. xxiii, 5; vii, 16). There is only one Leader and Commander who can rule Israel, even the one who brought them out of Egypt and put them in the promised land and gave them judges and kings and always delivered them when they cried unto Him—He of whom the Lord said to Jeremiah, "I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth; * * * His name shall be called the Lord Our Righteousness (Jer. xxiii, 5, 6). See also Isa. lx, 6, 7; Luke 4, 31-33. Nations have never yet in all the history of the world turned to the Lord as nations, but when Israel shall have become a righteous nation by receiving their Messiah at His coming again in power and glory then shall be fulfilled such words as these: "The nations shall come to Thy light and kings to the brightness of Thy rising;" "Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion, for, lo, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the Lord, and many nations shall be joined to the Lord in that day and shall be My people" (Isa. xxv, 8, 9; lx, 1-3; Zech. il, 10, 11). Lesson verses 6, 7, seem to be a call to individuals now and at all times, and what great encouragement there is to all sinners to turn to the Lord in the offer of abundant pardon and mercy. The Lord loves to do all things abundantly, whether it be giving life or an entrance into His kingdom or supplying a present need, and if we will only deal rightly with Him He promises more blessing than we can receive (John x, 10; II Pet. 1, 11; Matt. xlv, 20; Mal. iii, 10). The seeking means earnest, persistent, whole hearted turning to Him (Jer. xxiv, 7; xxix, 13). Verses 8, 9, should teach us the folly of our thoughts and ways, inasmuch as His are as far above ours as the heavens are higher than the earth. Yet there are so many who know not the thoughts of the Lord, either concerning His great and free salvation or His purpose in this age and the ages to come (Mlc. iv, 12; Eph. iii, 11). Verses 10, 11, are especially grand words for rainy or snowy days, but good at all times. When I have given the Lord's message I am continually comforted by the assurance that it always accomplishes His pleasure and never returns to Him void and that results are sure, whether we see them or not. Words that go well with these are, "I will watch over my word to perform it" and "No word from God shall be void of power" (Jer. 1, 72, R. V.; Luke 1, 37, R. V.). If only we are the Lord's messengers with the Lord's message (Hag. 1. 13) we can always go on our way saying, Thank God, that will work. Some look for so many souls from a service or other definite results of their own desire, but it seems to me better to give the message and leave results to Him, always expecting them and sure of them, but leaving it to Him to accomplish His pleasure and knowing that in due time He shall see of the travail of His soul and be satisfied (lii. 11).

Lesson IV.—Third Quarter, For July 22, 1917. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson, II Kings xviii, 13, to xix, 37—Memory Verses, 32, 33—Golden Text, Ps. xlvi, 1—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. In our last lesson all that we saw of Hezekiah was good, except in the matter of his not honoring the Lord before the visitors from Babylon, but this lesson gives a little more insight into the heart of the man, who, like all the rest of us, would be nothing but sinful but for the grace of God. His great turning to the Lord, with the great Passover and the two weeks' feast of unleavened bread and the cleansing of the land from idols, was in the very beginning of his reign. But to begin well is one thing, while patient continuance in well doing is often quite another, and it is in the continuance that many fail. Paul said that, having obtained help of God, he continued (Acts xxvi, 22), and that same help is for all who really desire it. In the sixth year of Hezekiah's reign the ten tribes were carried into captivity in Assyria by Shalmaneser in the ninth year of the reign of Hoshea, their king, because they obeyed not the voice of the Lord their God, but transgressed all that Moses, the servant of the Lord, commanded (xviii, 9-12). Eight years later, in the fourteenth year of Hezekiah, Sennacherib came against Judah and Jerusalem, and at first Hezekiah tried to buy him off by a measure of submission to him by giving him gold and silver, even the gold from the doors and pillars of the temple (xviii, 13-16). That was certainly not trusting in the Lord, as he had done at the beginning, and gave the enemy ground to reproach God and scoff at Hezekiah's trust (xviii, 22) and made them bold to blaspheme and defy and lie, saying. The Lord said to me. Go up against this land and destroy it (xviii, 25). While those who bear the name of the Lord may terribly fail, as did some of the kings who sat upon the throne of the Lord in Jerusalem, so that Jerusalem herself was called a harlot, and also called Sodom and Gomorrah (Isa. i, 9, 10, 21), those, who like Pharaoh and Sennacherib, and the antichrist of the last days, openly defy God, are the devil in human form, but all such loftiness shall be brought down, and the Lord alone shall be exalted (Isa. ii, 11, 17). The Assyrian generals were not far from the truth when they said that it was vain to place any reliance upon Egypt (xviii, 19-21), for the-Lord Himself had said the same thing through Isaiah, "The strength of Pharaoh shall be your shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt your confusion, * * * for the Egyptians shall help in vain, and to no purpose" (Isa. xxx, 1-7). But when it came to exalting the king of Assyria above the living God and putting Him on a level with idols, the gods of the nations, that was unbearable, and to such blasphemy the people held their peace, and at the king's commandment answered not a word (xviii, 2S-30, 3S-36). This brought Herekiah in humility to his knees and to the Lord in whom he so fully trusted at the beginning. To more words we should be able to act according to Ps. xxviii, 11, "I as a deaf man heard not, and I was as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth." When it is a bad letter or writing of any kind, then we can spread it before the Lord and commit to Him, as Hezekiah did (xix, 14, 15). Our desire should always pre-eminently be that God might be magnified before others, and we should remember that as creator of heaven and earth nothing is to hard for Him (xix, 15-19; Jer. xxxii, 17). When the servants of Hezekiah sent to Isaiah about it his words from the Lord were full of comfort (xix, 6, 7), "We not afraid of the words which thou hast heard, with which the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed Me. Hehold I will send a blast upon him, * * * and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land." After Hezekiah had spread the letter before the Lord and prayed, the Lord sent through Isaiah a grandly comforting reply, saying among other things concerning Sennacherib, "I know thy abode, and thy going out, and thy coming in, and thy rage against Me. * * * I will put my hook in thy nose, and my bridle in they lips, and I will turn thee back by the way by which thou camest." Then to Hezekiah He said, "I will defend this city to save it for mine own sake, and for my servant, David's sake" (xix, 27, 28, 34). The blast of which He spoke is described in xix, 35. It is grand to trust in the Lord at all times and to pour out our heart before Him, for power belongeth unto God (Ps. lxii, 8, 11). All the defiance and lying and blasphemies of past ages shall come to a head in the willful king of Dan. vii, 8, 20; xi, 36; who shall speak marvelous things against the God of gods and prosper for a time, but he shall come to his end and none shall help him (Dan. xi, 45). He is also the man of sin, the son of perdition, of 2 Thess. ii, 3-10, and the great blasphemer of Rev. xiii, 4-7, who will dare even to fight against God, but he with his companion, the false prophet, shall be sent alive to the lake of fire, at the same time that the devil shall shut up in the pit by the same Lord God, who heard and answered the prayer of Hezekiah (Rev. xvll, 14: xix, 20).

PINAUD Bldg., New York PAGE EIGHT (Continued from Page One) cate Printing Company, is the office of J. W. Welcher, who is a builder and contractor, who furnishes employment to a large number of men throughout the entire year. Leaving Mr. Welchers office on the same floor, you next enter the magnificent and well appointed law offices of Attorney J. Garfield Lemon. On entering this young attorney' offices, one is struck with the professional and business-like air, which pervades his entire surroundings. Across the hall are the well appointed dental offices of Dr. A. P. Williams who is a young dentist, who not only stands well in the community but has an excellent patronage. Leaving the Savannah Pharmacy building on the same side of the street, going north, you come to the Pekin Theatre which is said to be one of the best equipped Negro play houses in the entire country. This play house and the buildings surrounding it in the same block are owned by a Negro business woman, who has shown the women of the race in this community that a woman can successfully handle big enterprises. The Negro business men in this community are proud of Mrs. Styles, as a business woman. On leaving the Pekin Theatre, you next come to the Monroe block, which takes up all the space on West Broad street between Charles and Huntingdon streets. The southern corner of this block is occupied by the three-story combination residence and business house of the A. M. Monroe & Co. Undertakers, which concern enjoys the fullest confidence of the people. In this same block is located the well-equipped studio of J. W. Johnston, the only Negro photographer in the city. In mentioning Mr. Johnston in this connection, we feel that we should say just a word with regard to the class of work which this artist turns out of his place. There is no question about Mr. Johnston being an expert in his line. Around on Huntingdon street one will find Dr. P. E. Love who enjoys the confidence and respect of all the people who know him. Just off of West Broad street, at the corner of George and Minis is located the beautiful three-story press brick building of the Savannah Home Association, which building was planned and constructed by R. E. Pharrow, a Negro architect, contractor and builder. This, uniquely is the finest, most modern and best furnished Negro club house built for club purposes by members of the race anywhere. It goes without saying, that the Wage Earners Savings Bank financed this project for the Savannah Home Association, as it has for hundreds of other enterprises of the race in the past seventeen years. On the northeast corner of West Broad and Minis street, you will see the three story brick building of Capt. E. Seabrooks the undertaker, which is the largest and most spacious building of any undertaking establishment, with out regard to race or color, in the city. This building is owned by Capt. Seabrooks, and is modern in every detail. In that same block is the Garey Bakery, which is a two-story frame building. The owner and proprietor of this bakery is Mr. J. G. Garey, who is well and favorably known throughout the entire community. In other words, he is known as "Honest Joe." Coming further north on West Broad between Gaston and Alice, you come to the headquarters of the Guaranty Mutual Insurance Co., which has branch offices in various towns and cities throughout the state. This company is well and favorably known and is doing a splendid business here where it had its beginning. Located in the same building with this insurance company is the Savannah Real Estate & Savings Corporation, the latter doing a banking business, and both are headed by Mr. Walter S. Scott. At the southeast corner of West Broad and Alice streets, is located the Wage Earners Savings Bank building, which is said to be the finest and best bank building owned by Negroes on earth. This building is three stories high, above the ground with a large basement, containing a high class barber shop, and space for the foundation of its high speed Otis elevator. This building is made of buff brick, and trimmed with white sand stone. The ground floors are used for the bank and G. H. Bowen's realestate office. Seven hundred and sixteen feet of floor space are used on the second floor by the Atlanta Mutual Insurance Association to fully take care of the business handled by the thirty odd agents that this company gives employment to. On the same floor is the North American Accident Insurance Co. The remaining offices on the second floor are occupied by Mrs. A. E. Allen, the chiro-pulist, manicurist, and hair dresser, and Dr. J. W. Jamerson, the dentist. The third floor is occupied by the Bureau of Endowment of the K. of P. of the state of Georgia, the branch offices of the People's Health and Life Insurance Co., of Macon and the Chatham Mutual Life and Health Insurance Attention!

Price 50c Per Bottle Co., which is strictly a Savannah concern. Hard by the Wage Earners-Savings Bank, on the north side is the two story frame building, which is used for a hotel, which is the property of the Union Development Company, an organization of Negro business men, doing much good for members of the race. The ground floors of this Negro property are occupied by white tenants. It might be well to add, that this property, like the Wage Earners the Union Depot. On Berrien street, just one block and a half from the the Union depot is located the Henry Mears Feed store. This Negro business concern is really doing a first class retail and wholesale feed business, not only serving members of the race, but the other fellow as well. The building is owned by the Henry Mears Co. Not quite two blocks from the Henry Mears wholesale feed house, just around the corner, on Jefferson street, you will find the Royal Undertaking company, the oldest concern of its kind in the city, and is managed by Mr. L. M. Pollard, a high class business man. PETITION FOR INCORPORATION Georgia. Chatham County. To the Superior Court of said County: The petition of Charles Allen, H. C. Huger, J. W.

In the very heart of the city, on the corner of Jefferson and St. Julian streets, you will find the only wholesale Negro commission merchant in the city. It is indeed gratifying to go into a store full of fruits, vegetables, peanuts and the like, and be told by some one on the outside that the Negro man you see coming out of that office, is the proprietor. This is what will be told you of W. L. Blunt, the big boss, on the corner of Jefferson and St. Julian streets. The most unique Negro business man in the city, is Mr. Daniel Simmons, the president and general manager of the Savannah Mattress factory, whose business is on the Bay, near the money centre of the city, and where only a few men of the race have ever attempted to do any kind of business. In attempting to tell you of the Negro business man of Savannah and what they stand for and what they do, we would be forced to take up too much space at this one writing, but will at a later day give a complete account of those omitted.
