The Savannah Tribune. VOLUME XXXII Should "Hold Up The Leaders' Hands" REV. GOODALL MAKES PLEA FOR SUPPORT OF LEADERS Many Visitors in Congregation Much Pleased with Stirring Sermon "Hold up the Leaders' Hands" was the subject of a very interesting sermon preached last Sunday morning by the Rev. T. J. Goodall, pastor at the First African Baptist church. The discourse was listened to by a very large congregation, among whom were many visiting business and professional men. It had been whispered around that a sermon of special interest to the community would be preached and that the subject of the discourse would have a direct bearing on "leadership". As the speaker, during his stay of two years here, had already taken a prominent part in all movements looking towards the general betterment of the Negro in Savannah, and is therefore fully capable of discussing this all important subject, those who, with his large congregation, came out Sunday morning were certain that they would listen to a discussion of a subject which would be entertaining, beneficial and profitable. In this they were in every respect satisfied, for the hour's discourse was full of ennobling thought and presented an array of facts that are indispensable and worthy of more than mere passing mention. The speaker took for his text Exodus 17:10-13. In a very interesting and impressive historical sketch he showed how through the ages it has been necessary for the people to uphold their leaders if they would succeed and that when this all important support was withheld, failure, disaster and destruction was the resultant. He started with that striking biblical sketch of the march of the Children of Israel out of the Wilderness, when by following and upholding steadfastly the leadership of Moses, they landed safe in the promised land, and traced the subject right down to the present day. He ended his discourse by pleading for a strong and undivided leadership of those Negro leaders who place under subjection self and all littleness and work for the common good of all the people. He decried corrupt and pervert leadership among the race, stating that it leads to failure, discord and disaster and causes any race of people which follows it to remain in the background and lacking in those characteristics which are necessary for progress and advancement. AUTO BREAKS PHOTOGRAPHER JOHNSTON'S LEG --- Photographer J. W. Johnston, West Broad and Gaston streets, had his right leg broken on Monday afternoon by being run over by an automobile. It seems, from the testimony of eye witnesses of the affair, that Photographer Johnston and Joe Hall, a mechanic, had some words about the repairs on the former's car. The mechanic wanted a cash payment for the work he had done, but Mr. Johnston objected to making a full settlement until he tried the car out as he said he had already had some unsatisfactory work done by Hall. Johnston said he would pay Hall ten dollars and then take the car out for a try out to Hope Crest and then if it proved satisfactory he would pay the remainder of the bill. This Hall objected to and said he would take the car back to his shop. Johnston would not agree to this and to stop Hall from moving the car, took out the crank. Hall then went away and got a hacking car. This he had driven up in front of Johnston's car, ticing tow rop to it form the car in front. Johnston, in the meantime, was busy trying to untie the rope, when Hall jumped into the car behind and ordered the driver of the hacking car to proceed. In a twinkle, the head car shot off and with a jerk pulled the back car upon the photographer, knocking him down, his right leg being run over by both right wheels of the machine. With a lead crack the leg broke below the knee and friends ran to the injured man's assistance. Mr. Johnston was carried to Charity hospital where it was reported yesterday afternoon that he is doing well. He is one of the most energetic of the younger Negro business men of the city and his friends regret to learn of the accident. BALTIMORE, MD., NEWS By F. F.

Evers, against whom and his assistant at St. Barnabas Catholic church, allegations reflecting on their character as ministers were made some time ago, is no longer at the church. His assistant, who was indicted on the charge of assaulting a colored domestic employee at the parish house, disappeared some months ago. With $504.51 secured Sunday, Beth el A. M. L. church has raised $4,811 in the biggest financial rally ever pulled off by a local congregation. When reports are made this Sunday, the sum is expected to have reached $5,000. The rally was planned by the Rev Dr. W. Sampson Brooks, who has been pastor of the church since last April. As Dr. Brooks raised over $7,500 in one effort while pastor of St. Paul A. M. B. church, St. Louis, the rally here created general interest. This interest was heightened by the fact that Bethel church has a debt approximating $75,000. Since Dr. Brooks has been here the attendance and collections at the church have increased threefold. For the purpose of the rally the workers were divided into three groups called annual conferences, each of which was presided over by a "bishop." FAMOUS TENTH IN FRANCE Is Under the Direct Command of General Pershing Somewhere in France, in a deep trench is hidden the famous Tenth Cavalry, the black fighting men of America—Africans, but not foreigners. These soldiers, it is reported, left America just two days behind their fearless leader, Gen. Pershing. Before the general left he made demand that his black troops be sent with him, and it is sald, would have declined the honors if he had not been pledged his black command. It is generally conceded in army circles that the Tenth Cavalry is the best of soldiers America affords, being evidenced by the commanders. When an officer is promoted or transferred to command the "Tenth" his next promotion is commander general of the Army of the United States. Gen Miles won fame with the "Tenth" and was put in command of the Army of the United States. Gen. Wood then took command of the famous "Tenth" and is now commander of the entire Army of the United States. The press will not publish what troops are now in France because of Negroes making history as the first to shed blood for their country, but when the "Tenth" gets a chance to shoot and dash forward in victory the French will publish its record of gallantry and of our black boys of whom we are so proud—Illinois Idea. OKLAHOMA MERCHANT OPENS BRANCH STORE Tulsa, Okla., July 21.—Mr. T. J.

D. Hooker, in charge. Mr. Elliott is chairman of the Executive Committee of the National Negro Business League.

SAVANNAH. GEORGIA. SATURDAY JULY 28, 1917 M. Rev. P .Wilson Wrenn, Newly Elected Pastor, Second Bapt. Church Scenario PlayWriters Confer at Tuskegee "BIRTH OF A RACE" SUBJECT OF NEW PLAY Picture will Depict Rise of the Negro Race Tuskegee Inust. Ala., July 21.—Mr. George Frederick Wheeler, who is collaborating with Emmett J. Scott of the Tuskegee Institute in writing the scenario for the master photoplay, "The Birth of a Race." has held an important series of conferences here during the past week, working over the vast amount of material which they have assembled during the past eighteen months. This material is being put into the fork of a story which will be ready for the film-makers by the last of September. Prior to his visit here, Mr. Wheeler visited Memphis, Mound Bayou, Mobile and Atlanta. He has been most cordially received everywhere he went and reports that every opportunity has been given him to study racial conditions as they obtain in the South. "Everyone," says Mr. Wheeler, "seems to know of the photoplay and I am sure that the picture will have a great run in the South as well as the other sections of the country." In an address before the summer school, Mr. Wheeler announced that nearly enough of the capital stock had been sold to produce a picture, but it is now necessary to push the sale with vigor in order to assure the big picture which the producers have planned. He invited the teachers and others interested, to become members of the corporation and thus help to make the production a success. Each membership entitles the holder to one share of stock and quite a number of memberships were taken by the teachers and workers here. In describing some of the scenes of the Birth of a Race, Mr. Wheeler stated that it will cost $45,000 alone to erect one of the temples which will be shown in the screen for only about five minutes. This will be a complete reproduction of one of the old Egyptian temples erected in the days of early Negro civilization, thousands of years before the birth of Christ. Mr. Wheeler has spent many months of research, unearthing and verifying facts covering early Negro civilization. Another scene which he describes will require twelve thousand people, all of whom will wear specially made costumes. Mr. Wheeler left here Tuesday for Chicago where the home office of the Birth of a Race Photoplay Corporation is located in the National Life Building He planned to stop over in Montgomery, "the cradle of the Confederacy," Birmingham and Nashville in further quest of material and for good locations for staging the various scenes. Mr. Howard McKinney went to the Georgia Infirmary on Thursday for an operation, the result of which we have not been able to ascertain. Second Bapt. Church Installs Pastor IMPRESSIVE CEREMONIES TO BE HELD TOMORROW AFTERNOON Week of Celebration Precedes the Installation Services Rev. P. Wilson Wrenn, the newly called pastor of the Second Baptist church, will be installed tomorrow afternoon at 3:30 o'clock. The installation sermon will be preached by the Rev. D. W. Cannon of Atlanta, and the charge to the church given by the Rev. T. J. Goodall, pastor of the First African Baptist church. The Rev. Wrenn comes to his new charge from Greenville, Miss., where he is well known and where he met with much success. He succeeds as pastor of the Second Baptist church, the Rev. W. Bolivar Davis, who resigned a little over a year ago. All during this week, services have been going on at the church leading up to the installation tomorrow, in which prominent ministers of the city and their members have taken part ill. BOXING CONTEST MONDAY NIGHT AT AIRDOME Barbershop Williams of this city and Jack Russell of Montgomery, Ala., will be seen in a fast fifteen round boxing contest on Monday night at the Airdome theatre. The bout promises to be hard fought as Williams is rounding himself in excellent condition and Russell has just returned from a tour of the west where he met several fighters high up in the game. The bout will begin at 9 o'clock. DR. G. W. SMITH MOVES Dr. G. W. Smith who has for a number of years, been located at 811% West Broad street, moved into his new offices this week at 441 West Broad street. The new offices, which are just a few doors south of the Union Station, are very nicely fitted up and well appointed and will afford the doctor ample office space for serving his many patrons. The offices consist of a suite of four rooms on the ground floor of the building, a large public waiting room, a private consultation room, a well furnished operation room and a private rest room. In order to afford the ladies of the city; who may be in the neighborhood of the Union station, a comfortable rest room, the doctor will be pleased to have them make use of his large waiting room, free of charge. Easy rockers and other conveniences are at the disposal of those who care to partake of the doctor's generous offer. Mrs. T. E. Ferrebee of Hall street, west is spending the summer at Rome. Mr. Jesse D. Parker, city editor of the Augusta (Ga.) Post, visited The Tribune this week. NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITOL Washington, D.C., July 24.—The sweet singers from Roger Williams University, of Nashville, Tenn., met with a most cordial greeting Thursday evening of last week at the Mt. Carmel Baptist church. They came to Washington upon the Invitation of Rev. W. H. Jernagin, the energetic pastor of this church and an ever-enthusiastic friend of education. The singers came practically as strangers, but after a few bars of the opening number, "The Infumatus" had been sung, they and the music-loving Washingtonians were on familiar and friendly terms. No higher quality of melody has ever been heard here, and the selections were so exquisitely varied that there could be no sense of monotony, and every possible snade of taste was satisfied to the utmost. The leading soprano, Miss Iola Currin, a new star in the firmament of song, gave evidence of prima donna timber. She met and mastered the high notes without apparent effort and carried the variations of tone and shading with a skill that would have done credit to a diva with years of experience in the operatic arena. Of the others too much praise cannot be said. Their voices were fresh, individual and blended harmoniously in all that they attempted, be it grave or gay Mrs. M. Townsend, the versatile and resourceful, wife of the president of Roger Williams University accompanied the singers on the piano, displayed her finished musical training by the thoroness with which she entered into the spirit of each selection. As musical director of the octette, she is entitled to a lion's share of the tremendous success scored by the singers here and elsewhere. Not least among the enjoyable episodes of the evening was the eloquent appeal to the public for tangible assistance for the re-building of the fire-de-troyed Roger Williams University. This came from Mrs. Townsend, after an inspiring introduction by Mr. Williams and Rev. W. H. Jernagin. She told of the broad scope of the work and of its benefit to the race all over the country. How deeply she impressed her hearers was evidenced by the generous contributions and pledges that were promptly given. --- Rev. W. H. Jernagin announces that the annual meeting of the National Race Congress, of which he is president, has been set for October 3 and 4, in this city. Many matters of vital interest to the colored citizens of America will be discussed, with especial emphasis on the outrages recently committed upon the defenseless Negroes at East St. Louis, disfranchisement, jim crowism in places of public accommodation, the southern exodus and discrimination in employment and wages will all have a hearing. --- Miss Marie A. D. Madre, president of the District of Columbia Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, went to Stamford, Oonn., last week to carry the greetings of the District to the annual convention of the New England Federation of Colored Women's Clubs. She delivered an address that woke the echoes and took the view that it is now the duty of our women to go forward in the great moral task of the hour, since in so many respects the hands of our men are tied when they are frequently compelled to be silent to save the economic interests of their dependent families. --- The new $30,000 building of the Industrial Savings Bank is about ready for occupancy. The banking room is entirely modern and the furniture, vaults and other appointments are in keeping with the best traditions of up-to-date business. Mr. John W. Lewis, who came here poor and unknown twenty-odd years ago, and has risen from hod-carrier to bank president and capitalist, deserves unstinted credit for the record he has made in this community. The bank is doing an annual business of $75,000, and a boom period is now setting in that will carry the total easily to the $100,000 mark. --- The District of Columbia exemption board, to pass upon the men called to make up the District's quota for the national army, will have one colored member: The sole representative of the race is Dr. William A. Warfield, surgeon-in-chief of Freedmen's Hospital who is one of the three constituting the board in charge of the work in the 5th division, which has the largest colored population embraced in any one of the 11 precincts of the District. Rev. W. Bishop Johnson, president of the New England Baptist Missionary Convention, for thirty-three years --- NUMBER 47 Sunday School Association Success MEETINGS AT PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH WELL ATTENDED Association Gives Much Impetus to Religious Work Among Young On last Wednesday night the Savannah Sunday School Association held its quarterly meeting at Butler Presbyterian church of which the Rev. S. T. Reed is pastor. There was a splendid crowd present, composed of pastors, Sunday school superintendents and workers. Fourteen Sunday schools were represented. The music was very good. Mr. J. E. Johnson directed, while Mrs. A. E. Orner performed at the instrument. The F. A. R Sunday school, Bolton and West Broad streets, rendered a beautiful quartet composed of adults and the Elder Presbyterian, a petit trio, rendered by children. The address by Prof. Tibbs of the Ga. State Industrial College was present with helpful information and ammonition He used for a subject "The Sunday school its problems and their solution. Mr. W. B. Stubbs, president of the Georgia Sunday School Association, spoke on "The Banner School". The address was plain, pointed and practical. Mr. Stubbs is an experienced active, progressive Sunday school worker. The president of the Savannah association; Rev. I. J. Yancy, had secured from the headquarters of the Georgia Sunday School Association sufficient banner school charts and other literature on important methods to supply each school. Many of the workers pledged that they would adopt for their motto "My Sunday school must be the best in the state." EUREKA CLUB TAKES TWO- GAMES FROM BRUNSWICK Hampton, Savannah's Best Slabman, "Suffers Defeat Last Monday opened the three days' series of ball games between the Eureka club of this city and the Glants of Brunswick, Ga. The visitors arrived here on last Sunday night and were seemingly in the pluk of condition for the struggles that were to come off. Each of the three games was witnessed by fairly good crowds with Wednesday having a shade the best of it in attendance. Both teams showed up well and there was plenty of ginger in the games. Some dissatisfaction was caused by the bad decisions of Umpire Warner, even though they were in favor of the home team, yet the rooters of the Eurekas who were largely in the majority, showed their disapproval of such actions. In Wednesday's game, Hampton who is credited with being Savannah's best slahman, suffered defeat. But it was not his box work that caused the game to be loss, the responsibility rests upon Warner and Eugene Howell, first and third basemen, respectively. Mention is necessary of Billey, who displaced Warner at the first sack for the Eurekas. His playing was brilliant, as was also Frasler, third baseman and Bowden, catcher for the Brunswick team. The reliable, Captain Henry Howell did the twirling for the home team in both Tuesday and Wednesday's games, bringing off the honors. The results are: Monday, Brunswick 9, Eurekas 2; Tuesday, Eurekas 3, Brunswick 2; Wednesday Eurekas 4, Brunswick 2. The deportment of the visiting team on the diamond and elsewhere caused them to gain many friends here which was evidenced by the way in which they and the ladies of Brunswick were entertained. On Tuesday night, they were guests at the Savannah Home Association and on Wednesday night they were given a big sendoff at the Eureka club. Dr. N. W.

Here and there, however, sprinkled among the distinctly feminine frocks, some strictly military frocks appear. One of the most successful dresses on this order is the frock with the cape pictured here. apes have been rampant ever since the springand early summer, and now they are attached to dresses and have become quite an important feature of the C. MCCALL A Military Dress with Silk-Lined Cape fashions. Much of the charm of these capes is due to the pretty linings which they reveal when they are blown open by the wind. Patterned silks with flowers or dots are employed for the linings, as well as plain colors in shades contrasting with the dress material. The dress in the sketch is of blue gabardine with the popular coindotted foulard for the lining of the cape. The blue foulard with white or yellow dots is very effective for these linings. Linen Tub Frocks Now that warm weather is really and truly here, the cool tub frock comes to take the place of heavier dresses. Linen is just as much a favorite this year as ever, but the novelty, about it is that it is combined with volle or organdy. The usual trimming is heavy © MCCALL For Summer Outings is This Dress of Linen stitching, braid or embroidery. Dresses entirely of linen, unrelived by anything but perhaps a collar of organdy, are also considered very smart. One of the new one-piece models, especially suited to misses, is illustrated. Like so many of the simple, youthful styles, this one is slipped on over the head. There is a belt front and back to hold in the fulness of the waist, and there are the inevitable pockets at the sides, but these are the inevitable pockets at the sides, but these are placed on the side panels of the dress, making somewhat of a difference from the usual styles. In the white dresses for afternoon there is nothing daintier than those of Georgette crepe trimmed with white chalk beads or white silk soutache braid.

Pale pink Georgette trimmed in the same way with pink or white beads or pink braid is just as much favored as the white dresses. This particular shade of pale pink that is so popular at present makes charming evening dresses in soft satin. I have seen some with short sleeves of pink tulle to match, and others in which very fine creamy lace is used to make with soft clinging draperies as the sides are very new, but the normal waistline is still very strong, and now, there are even rumors of the Empire line coming back to favor again. Novelties in Bathing Dresses In our attempts to escape the midsummer heat, many are taking refuge in the cooling waters of the ocean. Bathing dresses are consequently in great demand just now. To vary the eternal black satin and navy blue taffeta, some of the newest bathing costumes are of dark red jersey cloth. Dark red and blue rubberized cloth was a combination recently seen. Other novelties include black velvet suits and blue taffetas trimmed with yellow or bright red sateen. Nowadays, the beach wrap is an important part of the bather's equipment, cry attractive wraps are made of blue or rose-colored jersey cloth cut in circular shape with the fastening on one shoulder. The edges of these are faced with a contrasting color and embroidered in wool. Figured silks as much as the wool jersey. Silk and Wool Sweaters The new sweaters made of wool and silk appear to be a trifle shorted than they have been wearing them in the past. There are slip-over sweaters which are sometimes worn like waists with white silk skirts, pleated or plain. The favorite colors are rose, blue and green, also yellow and the cool-looking corn color. The sweaters opened down the front and belted with soft sashes have not been forsaken for the slip-over models. There is a certain grace and softness about them that makes them ever desirable. No summer wardrobe is really complete without a couple of these charming sweaters, whether one spends the summer in the mountains, at the seashore, or even in the city. They may be of Shetland wool, all silk, or the silk and wool mixtures. White Angora sailor collars and cuffs on the colored wool sweaters are very popular, and at the same time becoming. SCANDAL! It is easy to suspect. In our law courts we proceed on the theory that a man should be believed innocent till he is proved guilty. As a matter of fact, the majority of people believe him guilty till he proves himself innocent. The voice of scandal never lacks for an audience. Stand on the street corner and praise a man or woman, and you will have no hearses. Stand on the same corner and assail somebody, make charges, iniminations, inmendoes, and people will crowd to hear you. Nothing is easier than to put scandalous stories into circulation. Nothing is harder than to stop them, orge they have been started on their devastating course. Something in the human mind, some mysterious survival of the old days when greed and evil were dominant human traits, prompts men—and women—to credit every scandal that SATURDAY JULY 28, 1917 comes to their ears. It makes little difference who is the subject of such a story. The man who has sought all his life to live correctly and honestly has no armour against scandal. It is easy to counsel young men and women to avoid appearance of evil. It is easy to say that he who cultivates character need have no fear for his reputation. But even preachers of these platitudes know that they are not true. As long as scandal-mongers exist, reputations can be shattered overnight, no matter how honestly and how toilfully they have been acquired. You may build your House of Reputation as carefully as you choose; you may avoid sedulously all appearance of wrong; you may mean to do right, and you may succeed in doing right, but somewhere and somehow you are likely to find an enemy ready to stab you with his unclean knife, and the wound he will inflict will prove beyond the power of any physician to heal. As we said at the beginning, our theory is that a man is presumed to be innocent until he is proved guilty. Technically that is the practice of the courts. But it is never the practice of public opinion, and few are the juries who can withstand public opinion, when it is once thoroughly aroused. It is seldom that an innocent man is sent to his death or even to prison on unfounded charges. But many is the time that a jury, disagreeing as to a verdict, leaves in the minds of all who see or read of the trial a firm belief in the guilt of the man who has been arraigned be fore them. In very recent years men with more cleverness than scruple have used organized scandal to accomplish business and political ends. There has been one recent public instance on an attack on a high public officer who was doing his best for the people, for the whole country—an attack made indirectly, but which was nevertheless calculated to do him and his policies incalculable injury. It happened that this particular attack failed, but it is quite possible for others to be set on foot that will not fail. The weed seed of suspicion finds far more fertile soil in the human mind than the grain seed of good report. Scandal mongers there will always be, and their possibility for harm will always be great. There is but one way to render them less dangerous, and that is to pay no attention to them. Without publicity evil will flourish. Wherever there is cause for suspicion, it is a public duty to clean it up. The method of investigation employed when public men happen to be suspected is good as far as it goes. It is seldom thorough enough. But to credit every evil story of a man's public or private depreciations, without a shadow of foundation, is merely to keep in the hands of the most wretched of all human beings the weapons with which they can destroy their betters, and against which honest men and women have no defense—B.

It is not a knowledge of signs and passwords, but a conception of principles, unfolded by degrees in a sympathetic manner as the capacity to apprehend opens to the neophite. Masonry is a growth. The secrets of Masonry, the workings of the lodge room, passwords and whatnot of the craft might be publicly proclaimed and nothing of value reach the ears of the man whose heart attuned to worldly pursuits responds to Masonic evolutions. Masonry is considered a parent body of all secret societies, although it has no imitators. Societies have been plagiarized for forms and usages, but the Masonic order stands alone; as for centuries in the exemplification of those principles which are peculiarly Masonic.—The Square and Compasses. The Grand Lodge of Italy is extending Masonry in the newly acquired Italian territory in Africa. The Needed Trials Our disquietude and nervous unrest in the afflictions of life prove the very necessity of those afflictions. They prove our lack of submission and faith in God and reveal even to ourselves, if we are thoughtful, the need of deeper experiences and more abiding truthful obedience. If it is seen to be true that an all-wise and an all-powerful God will always bring about the best results, why should we fear, why should we be disquieted? Our involuntary rebellion against God's will and plan for us reveals our need of better acqualutance with, dependence on and harmonization with Him. The tests we shrink from are the ones that we need. Can you stand the test?—Oriental Consistory. --- Masonry Above Strife Antiquity, perpetuity and sincerity are among the most distinguishing attributes of Precensaury. Rooted in the past, it has the veneration always enjoyed by respectable age. It is natural to associate worth with what is old. The imagination is ever excited by any institution that emerges, from the shrouded dawn of tradition. Then, the fact that Freemasonry has endured gives it esteem. To wear the weighty garments of the centuries, bear the burden of unnumbered years, and yet stand erect and in fact, what strength it implies! To see the material work of man shattered, to witness the fall of empires, to view the death of successive generations, to withstand the shock of time, to buffet the elements and defy decay, this means immortality. Rebold a mountain! How serene it is! Let it stand by the surging sea and yet it is neither bowed-or bruised by the restless billows that beat against its base, and it regards them not. Let it arise from the plain, and yet it is unscratched by the shifting sands nor does it mind the agitation of the earth, clouds fly in battalion about its breast, torrents spill their reservoirs of rain lightening discharges its deadly artillery, avalanches rumble by, and yet the mountain lifts in calm its sunlit summits through the blue dome of heaven toward the silent and shinning pathway of the stars. This is serenity. Masonry is like the mountain. The mutations of mundane existence do not ruffle it. Man frets, but Masonry is composed. The fury of faction disturbs it not. It attacks no religion, sides with no party. It is known by fruits, not by fights. Nolslessly it enters the heart and mind of humanity, purifying and instructing. As all-pervading and powerful as gravitation, it is unseen. It permeates life, but belongs to eternity.—Selected. Adversity There comes a time in the life of every man when adversity reaches him and, disheartened and discourages, he may deem life not worth the living; yet adversity is to all the greatest teachers. It is the most strict and severe of all instructors set over us. It is by adverse experiences that we may realize and enjoy the blessings with which a bountiful creator may at some other time confer in us. Series of adverse circumstances with which we must combate only serve to strengthen our nerves and may make us the stronger to combat other adverse conditions and bring to the surface many talents that may not have been brought into action, but have lain dormant for want of the use which adverse conditions suggest. Uninterrupted success and prosperity do not qualify or strengthen a man in the battle of life and against adverse conditions. It takes the waves of this world's adversity, like those of the ocean, to rise us to the heights of greatest endeavor, and exercise our greatest skill and fortitude in the battle of life. Adversity makes fools the more mad, makes the weak moral cowards, but supers the wise to greater endeavor to do and to dare in the battle for success. He who has never experienced a touch of the world's adversity has never made his own acquaintance and little knows him self or his strength for constant success marrows the mind and leaves us knowing but half, the world, success begets friends who tell us but our merits and we are left ignorant of our short-comings. God lays his afflictions on those He loves most. There is no cross without the crown, and all the blessings of life, its ease and comforts, do not make the strong, sturdy man; but it is the adverse experiences, the storms and tempests and the trials that firm him up and make him great, firm, noble character. Life is too serious a problem to be treated lightly and life's success is too serious a thing to be militated against by a lack of recognition to life's condition. Implanted in every heart should be the hope of a more bright and a THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE more noble life and nothing should deter or discourage the earnest man in bringing about that result. Remember, the sun always shines after the storm and no cloud is so dense and black and repellent but what God's sunshine in the shape of honest endeavor illuminates the pathway of the storm.—Masonic Voice-Review. "MURDER IS NOT DEBATABLE," T. R'S. REPLY TO LABOR Refuses In East St. Louis Case to Indorse Violence "Murder is not debatable." So Col. Theodore Roosevelt concludes a letter on the East St. Louis riots, in reply to communications from Victor A. Olander, secretary of the Illinois branch of the American Fidelation of Labor, who declares he had no idea that organized labor was especially concerned in the uprising against Negroes until Samuel Gompers took it upon himself at the reception to the Russian envoy to defend the rioters. So far as organized labor is concernen. Col. Roosevelt declares his unqualified belief in it, but he refuses to subscribe to the doctrine that the refusal of "the Negroes to organize or strike" is justification for their being slain. "I refuse," he says, "to treat any industrial condition as warranting riot and murder, and I condemn all persons, whether representatives of labor or not, who attempt to palliate or excuse such crimes, or who fail to condemn them in clear cut and unequivocal fashion." Lawlessness, he holds (begets lawlessness, citing as a example the experience of the Industrial Workers of the World in Arizona, and it is the duty of the government to repress all such, even when direct against such organizations as, the I. W. W., which he says, has in effect been acting as an ally of Germany. The Colonel's letter in part follows: "I was not informed, in any way, as to these economic conditions which it is alleged, led up to the riot, until after Mr. Gompers's speech on July 6. When on that evening, I made my first remarks on the riot. I supposed the underlying cause to be racial, and in my remarks I made no illusion whatever to organized labor, or, indeed, to labor at all, in connection with the riot. "It was Mr. Gompers's speech, which first gave me clearly to understand that the fundamental cause was alleged to be economic, and that organized labor, regarde ditself as especially concerned with the riots. "Then my attention was called to the newspapers of July 4, which carried an alleged statement by Mr. Michael Wallen, president of the Central Trades and Labor Council of East St. Louis. If this statement is correctly reported: Mr. Whalen said: 'The chief objection to the Negros is that they would not unionize and would not strike.' I hold with the utmost intensity of conviction that it is absolutely impossible for us E, SATURDAY JULY 28, 1917 to succeed along the lines of an orderly democracy which shall be industrial as well as political, unless we treat the repression of crime, including crimes of violence, and the insistence on justice obtain through the enforcement of law, as prime necessities. "I, of course, refuse, under any conditions, to accept the fact that certain persons decline 'to unionize and strike' as warranting their murder, or as warranting any kind of violence against them. But I go much further than this. I will aid in every way in my power to secure by governmental as well as private action the remedying of all the wrongs of labor, and in so acting I shall pay no heed to any capitalistic opposition. "But I refuse to treat any industrial condition as warranting riot and murder; and I condemn all persons, whether representatives of organized labor or not, who attempts to palliate or excuse such crimes, or who fall to condemn them in clear cut and unequivocal fashion. "I heartily believe in organized labor, just as and even more than I believe in organized capital. I am very proud of being an honorary member of the labor organization, but I will no more condone crime or violence by a labor organization or by wrokingmen than I would condone crime and wrongdoing by a corporation or by capitalists. A square deal for every man! That is the only safe motto for the United States. "This is a democracy, a government by the people, and the people have supreme power if they choose to exercise it. The people can get justice peaceably, if they really desire it; and if they do not desire it enough to show the wisdom, patience and cool-headed determination necessary in order to get it peaceably, through the orderly process of law, then they haven't the slightest excuse for trying to get it by riot and murder. "All the governmental authorities concerned in the East St. Louis situation should have taken notice of that situation in advance, and should take notice of it now. The national government and all local governments in places where such a situation is likely to arise should take notice now, and act now. Nine-tenths of wisdom is in being wise in time." "If there has been improper solicitation of Negroes to come to East St. Louis, or improper housing and working conditions among them after they have come, or an improperly low wage scale, or if anything else improper has been done by capitalists and employers, so that injustice has been done the workingmen, then it was the bounden duty, and is now the bounden duty, of the government authorities to remedy the wrong and see justice done the working men. "But the first consideration is to stop and to punish lawless and murderous violence. Lawless violence inevitably breeds lawless violence in return, and the first duty of the government is re- of Dayton, Ohio, is in your town for a few days and everybody who wants a Rain Coat that covers the need for both Rain Coat and OverCoat, can get such a coat at half price if ordered before he leaves.

Saturday July 28, 1917 No recent death has occasioned a more sincere shock and regret among his friends than that of Mr. Henry S. Patterson. Those who knew him loved and admired his amiable and unassuming disposition. He was never known to speak ill of others and in his presence there was ever a degree of pleasantness. His home life and family ties were strong, unselfish and affectionate. As a mechanic he was among the most proficient, and as a friend, unfaltering. His excellent qualities will live long in the minds of those who knew him, and his life should be a source of inspiration. MORE BLOOD The shooting of Smalls at Port Wentworth early this week, under circumstances not at all clear, brings to mind the frequency of such tragedies in our midst. Two policemen were tried this week, one whose trial was held Wednesday being acquitted, for the unwarranted and unprovoked shooting of a Negro. They were indicted by the grand jury, without suggestion or request from Negro citizens. Some weeks ago, a Negro prisoner was shot to death in the Union Station, by an inexperienced and too little courageous officer. Last summer a Negro was killed by an officer, while attempting to escape, in fact, was shot in the back; and there are other instances of too quick gun play, where Negroes are concerned, with Negroes always on the suffering end. It strikes us that the wholesale hiring and discharging of police officers, which has been going on recently, has not been done with sufficient care as to fitness and efficiency. A police officer, without good judgment, good sense, fact and courage, will often add to the disorder in a situation, and aggrivate and augment a bad condition. He comes into a situation, not imbued with a sense of duty to act positively to restore peace, but charges in with an iron whip, as it were, scourging every one in his path, before finding out the real offenders. Only last week, did we see a colored man, arrested at the Central Station for nearly nothing, get into this real trouble while under arrest after being goaded and intimidated into the second and only offense by a second officer. A great many officers of the Sarannah force lack the poise and tact requisite to make, good officers. The evidence this comes in the unnecessary excess of arrests for trivial offenses and the unnecessary number of disturbances on street cars, highways and public places. There are a great many arguments, debates, too much driving and hardness, which could be let alone. The good officer, and there are some, has very little trouble, no restraints and is respected and supported. The others are resented and deserve in. We understand that police officers must be men of good judgement, good physique and reasonably courageous; that they are duly and formally apprised of their grave and sacred duties of preserving the peace and administering so much of the law as comes within their duties; that they are only authorized to shoot in self-defense and on rare occasions, to prevent commission of felony or the escape of a felon. How often do they resort to their guns under less provocation! How inconsistent is the claim of self-defense when the victim is shot in the back, or killed unarmed! We have too much of this. Human life is cheaper in America than anywhere else on earth. It is getting to be as cheap in Savannah and Chatham County as in some other places of greater reputations for lawlessness and bloodshed. We believe the City fathers should make an examination of the personell and qualifications of the police officers, and weed out the unfit. We hope that the methods and qualifications for deputizations for private service will become more rigid. Reckless and wanton gun play by police officers, whose first duty is to preserve and promote peace, bears a close relationship to the commoner crime of lynching, so rampant throut the country. Let us examine ourselves lest a hitherto proud and fair escutchon be too stained of innocent blood. CONGRESS. INVESTIGATES. RIOT Representative Dyer of Missouri has introduced (H. J. Res. 118) in the House of Representatives a joint resolution creating a joint committee of the Senate and House to investigate the causes that led up to the East St. Louis outrage of July 2. Mr. Dallinger of Massachusetts has introduced a similar resolution (H.J. Res. 124) asking for a similar committee. Senator Sherman of Illinois has introduced a concurrent resolution in the Senate (S. Con. Res. 10) looking to the same end. Meantime the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, ever vigilant and vigorous, is busy gathering a mass of evidence to lay before these committees at the proper time. Congress has indicated that it desires a thorough investigation and that the people throughout the country demand it. Startling discloses of criminal negligence and temporizing on the part of the military officials while the city was under martial law, are expected to be made. One of the saddest commentaries on American justice and militarism is that there always follows these stench of neglect of military duty, on the part of those charged with quelling disturbances of the sort. These agents have always contributed their part in promoting and encouraging violence, blood-shed and pillage. Group blame and responsibility, precluding individual onus, seems to satisfy the sense of duty of the average American soldier. There apears to be lacking, that keen sense of shame which each soldier should feel when the group in charged with neglect of duty. But these oppressed and assassinated, who sought protection, were Negroes and thus an expensive and extensive Congressional investigation will eventually assign it as the "act of parties unknown" and consign it to the archives where rest the memories and records of Carterville, Springfield, Waco, Atlanta and the rest. The flames of warfare in Europe have leaped across the ocean to America, upsetting and demoralizing every thing here to some extent,—save only the institution of prejudice and oppression. That seems to hold on to the normal. JUDGE SAMUEL B. ADAMS The great masses of the citizens and taxpayers of Savannah and Chatham county are perfectly satisfied and content to have the Board of Education remain in status quo,—both as to its present make-up and its mode of self-ernestation. While its present method of continuous succession may be technically undemocratic, it is in spirit and act very liberal, broad-visioned and "high-minded." Some democracies, for instance some republican forms of government, are very little democratic, as there are also some people who claim democratic principles which they never "translate into acts." There are some governments, nominally monarchial, which are more liberal with their subject people than democracies and republican forms of government. So also, there are some individuals with the capacity for dealing justly and righteously, without regard to technicalities. We believe the Board of Education to be constituted of a superior brand of men,—"high-minded" capable and just,—who have always and will continue to bear their mantle of responsibility and stewardship honorably and for the best interest of the people they serve. There is no complaint or criticism of their official conduct, or other, outside the technical, if at all, and all their endeavors and acts are justified by the high motives and impulses actuating them. We believe the Senate Committee, on Education and the representatives from the First District in the Legislature, are capable of looking past mere form and technicality in the law governing our educational interests, there to see the higher human values embodied and represented in the men charged with the administration of SATURDAY JULY 28.1917 We feel perfectly safe to hazard the interests of the youth of Chatham county with the present Board. We know that under popular elective methods the personnel of that body could not be improved upon; and we dare to say, we believe its high level could or would not be attained. We have known many an instance wherein in the mantle of grave public responsibility and official position has been cast upon unworthy shoulders. It very often happens that wrongful motives of revenge, selfishness, ambition and patronage defent efficiency and high character in the public service. We are not opposed to democracy and popular rule. It takes a high democracy to recognize that the educational interests of the people should be free from politics and to secure to education that freedom from interruption and uncertainty. Politics should be as far removed from influencing education as from affecting religious interests. The government's function in education is purely and solely of support and advancement. The educational policies and plans of a people, of a community, should never be subjected to the possible whims and inordinate capers of demagogues and politicians. The course of education should be free, easy-flowing, continuous and progressive. We are democratic enough to trust to a body of "high-minded" gentlemen the lofty duty of directing the educational interests of our children for yet a season. The particular men involved have been tried and have proved themselves eminently worthy and capable. The high quality of culture, scholarship and democracy typified in the person of Judge Samuel B. Adams, stands out in bold relief, in all great public questions and debates, where he may be concerned; and his powerful and splendid personality have their just weight of influence against men of smaller mental and moral caliber and of coarser physical fiber. Judge Adams is the 100 per cent. citizen, the unalloyed Christian gentleman. PETITION FOR INCORPORATION To the Superior Court of said County: The petition of Charles Allen, H. C. Huger, J. W.

SMITH d Surgeon of Women and Children also ```markdown ``` PAGE SIX Public and private schools for Negroes in Georgia are described in the report on "Negro Education" just issued by the U. S. Bureau of Education, Department of Interior, Washington, and in a special abstract for the state. For each school the following information is given: location of school, name of principal, character of work; ownership and control, attendance, teachers, financial condition. The descriptive sketch of the more important schools is followed by specific recommendation looking to the future development of the school. The facts for the individual schools were obtained by a field study of Georgia and the other Southern states covering a period of nearly three years. Besides listing the private and higher schoolr for Negroes in Georgia and other Southern states, this federal report on colored schools analyzes, the provision for education by the states; discusses means and methods of education for Negroes; describes building and equipment for typical schools; and attempts to give specific aid to public and private authorities interested in Negro education. The problem before the colored schools of Georgia is indicated by the fact that illiterates are still 36.5 per cent. of the colored people 10 years of age, and 22 per cent. of the children 10 to 14 years of age. The Georgia section of the report shows that there are, according to census figures, 1,176,987 colored people in Georgia forming 45 per cent of the total population. It is pointed out that these 1,176,987 colored people constitute 56 per cent of all persons engaged in agricultural pursuits in the state, and that the number of frams cultivated by them increased 48 per cent, between 1900 and 1910. As farmers renting and owning land, they have charge of more than seven million acres of Georgia soil, and, if their work as farm laborers be taken into account, they undoubtedly cultivate a far larger area. The report therefore emphasizes the need of agricultural and industrial education, pointing out that public facilities for this type of education are still practically negligible, and that, while a few of the private schools are rendering effective service, they are for the most part unable to meet the state-wide needs. Public provision for colored and white children in Georgia is compared on the basis of the amount expended for teachers' salaries and the number of children of school age. "The public school teachers of 144 counties in Georgia received $3,368,202 in salaries in 1911-12" says the report. "Of this sum $2,84,580 was for the teachers of 301,211 white children and $48,622 was for the teachers of 274,741 colored children. On a per capita basis this is $9.58 for each white child of school age and $1.76 for each colored child." The inequalities between the figures for white children and those for colored children are greatest in counties where the proportion of Negroes in the total population is largest. PAY - school for colored pupils in Georgia number 78, according to the report. They have a property valuation of $2,647,541, an annual income of $229,733 and an attendance of 11,580 pupils, of whom 9,312 are in elementary grades. The private schools are almost entirely supported by denominations. Only 35 of the 78 schools play any important part in the educational activities of the state. It is pointed out that a few of the remaining schools may be justified on denominational grounds; the majority, however, are so hampered, by small income or poor management that the state receives little benefit from them. The most urgent need of colored schools in Georgia is trained teachers. The report declares: "The supply now depends almost entirely upon the secondary schools, most of which are private institutions. Of the private schools, however, only 11 offer fairly good courses for teachers. Three others include one or two teacher-training subjects in their general course. The graduating classes of all the schools offering teacher training in 1915 numbered only about 245, an annual output obviously inadequate to meet the need for teachers in a state with over a million colored people and 1,000 colored public school teachers." The report summarizes the educational needs for the schools of Georgia as follows: 1. The strengthening and extension of elementary school system. The only agencies able to meet this need are the state, the county, and the local public school districts. 2. The increase of teacher training facilities. To this end secondary schools with teachers training courses should be provided, more summer schools and teachers' institutes should be maintained, and the private schools should cooperate with the state department of education by placing more emphasis on teacher training courses adapted to state standards. The state should aid in this work by furnishing a normal school centrally located. 3. More provision for instruction in gardening, household arts, and simple industries. In developing this work counties should realize the possibilities of the Jeanes fpnd industrial supervisors. 4. More instruction in agriculture and in the problem of rural life, so that teachers and leaders may be developed for a people 80 percent, rural. 5. The maintenance of industrial high schools in cities. Copies of the section of the report dealing with Georgia may be obtained on application to the Commi-louer of Education, Washington, D. C. After an absence of five weeks spent visiting her son and family at Saratoga, Fla. Mrs. Diana Reed returned much benefited by her stay, and expresses having a delightful time. Besides sight-seeing she was entertained at dinner by the Rev. and Mrs. P. K. Johnson, pastor of Paynes Chapel A.M. E. church and a dinner by Rev. and Mrs. L. C. Colson. On July she with her grand daughter, Miss Viola Reed, was the guest at breakfast with Miss Bertha Stewart, formerly of Daytona, Fla., and again at dinner with Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Carter. A fishing party was given in her honor in the Gulf of Mexico by Miss Dorena Campbell. On July she was tendered a reception by her son and family, Mr. and Mrs. L. S. Reid. On Tuesday morning she left accompanied as far as Tampa by her son and grand son.

SATURDAY JULY 28. 1917 Lesson V.—Third Quarter, For July 29, 1917. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES: Text of the Lesson, Isa. Iv, 1-13—Memory Verges, 1, 2—Golden Text, Isa. Iv, 6—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. The last part of Isalah, chapters xl to lxvi, 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; lxvi, 13, 15, 18), and as then will be the overthrow of their enemies there is an easy connection between the last lesson and this. These last twenty-seven chapters of Isalah 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; xxil, 17; John lv, 14; vill, 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. xlv, 4; 8. of Sol. vll, 7; Rom. ll, 24). Spending money for that which is not bread reminds us of His words to the 5,000, "Labor not for the meat which perilsheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of Man shall give unto you" (John vi, 27). The words "Henken dillengently unto Me, * * * hear and your soul shall live" (verses 2, 3), are very like John v, 23, 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 mercles of David take us to the covenant ordered in all things and sure which comforted David in his dying hours (II Sarn. xviii, 5; vll. 10). 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. xxill, 5, 6). See also Isa, ix, 6, 7; Luke 1, 31-33. Nations have never yet in all the history of the world turned to the Lord as natons, 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 the, saith the Lord, and many natons shall be joined to the Lord in that day and be My people" (Isa. xxv, 8, 9; lx, 1-3; Zech. ii, 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 xiv, 20; Mal. iii, 10). The seeking means earnest, persistent, whole hearted turning to Him (Jer. xxiv. 7; xxiv. 13). Verses 8, 9, should teach us the fully 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 (Mie. 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, 12, R. V.; Luke 1. 37; R. V.). If only we are the Lord's messengers with the Lord's message (Hag. i, 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 (liii, 11). graphy ESTON, PHOTOGRAPHER & INSTRUCTOR you to be a good and famous photographer.

FIRST BRYAN BAPTIST CHURCH On Sunday morning the lesson was read and Rev. Sharp preached from Psalms S4:11. The heavy rain Sunday afternoon did prevent a large attendance at communion. The B. Y. P. Us' held the meetings as usual and much interest was manifested. At night Rev. Wright preached on the subject "The trials of Abraham." Services as usual. BAPTIST MINISTERS' UNION On Monday 23rd, the Baptist Ministers' Union met. Rev. H. D. Butler conducting the devotional services. He read for the lesson the 57th Psalms. A motion was passed that the Baptist of the city be notified that the Rev. A. A. Mathis, D. D., of Atlanta is not state missionary for this state any more, consequently he should not be supported as one. The secretary wants to correct the statement made with reference to the Baptist ministers which appeared in last week's issue of The Tribune, written by Evangelist Manns of the Sevents-Day Adventist church. The Evangelist is a vigorous advocate of what he comprehends about the Bible, but unfortunately he fails to see his mistake as he passes through life. Now as to the Biblical deficiency on the part of the Baptist ministry of Savannah I must say that the statement is absolutely erroneous and malicious, and is only used as an instrument of deception and commotion.

PINAUD Bldg., New York PAGE SEVEN PAGE EIGHT LET GEORGIA BE WELL REPRESENTED AT SESSION Negro Business League Weekly Letter By J. C. Lindsay From the beginning of man's career on this terrestrial ball, the race of mankind which has produced, the greatest thinkers, has always ruled, and if we may judge the future by the past, then, you will permit us to say, that thinkers will always rule the thoughtless. It is unreasonable to suppose that a child race like ours, which is only removed from the most cruel and abject slavery the country ever knew, by just a few short decades, could have produced many more helpful thinkers and constructive masterminds than is true of the Negro race in America. It would be a poor rehearsal on my part, to attempt to tax your patience at this time, to go into the tedious details of enumerating the many scores and hundreds of praise-worthy results which have been accomplished by the great thinkers and master minds which the race produced in the last fifty odd years. But suffice it to say, that these men through the medium of hard, straight thinking, have laid a foundation for the race in this country, tho, at times, handicapped and discouraged, which any race of people would be proud, yea, happy to build-up, and especially is this true, when it is taken into account that these men, for the most part, were self-made and self-taught. We cannot refrain from mentioning here in this connection, the constructive work done for the race in this country, which had its beginning in the little hamlet of Tuskegee. Macon county, Ala., by that wise master builder and safe race leader, who during his life time, was commonly called the "Wizzard of Tuskegee," the lamented booker T. Washington. This man was a thinker; not selfishly, but for the benefit of his people. It matters but little how much we may have differed with him during his life time; as to our misunderstanding with reference to the method he saw fit to employ in order that certain ends might be met which in every case, redounded to the lasting benefits of all the people of his race, no one up to this good day, has ever had the affrontery to stand up in the open and say, and put their finger on the time and place, when this great wizzard and safe race leader, ever cross-stopped his race for the benefit of himself and his immediate family. As much cannot truthfully be said of many others, whose meat and drink is playing to the foot lights. But this not what we started out to say. We had intended to try as best we could to impress the readers of our weekly letter with the importance of cooperating with all the racial uplifting agencies, in the matter of conving the young men of the race, how essential it is to do some hard, straight thinking. Not that brand of selfish thinking which aims to subordinate everybody and everything to "me and mine." Savannah is a great field for the thoughtful business man. No straightforward, appreciative Negro business man, who thinks painstakingly of the interests of the people of Savannah will find a better place or people, in which and among whom to do business and live, anywhere. The thoughtless, fault-finding, shiftless, selfish, busy-body need not apply, as all the guns of the thinkers, who as a rule, try to make themselves optimistic, frugal and economic as well as helpful will be trained by blm, and will find it so warm for him that he will soon find himself hunting more congoal climes. The helpful and optimistic thinking of the fathers, has been a wonderful asset to the race in its struggles along the lines of commercial and business endeavors, which have challenged the admiration of the world. These men, thru hard, straight thinking, have laid the sure foundation for the race in the matter of building banks, insurance companies, printing plants, colleges, seminaries and universities, factories, gins and mills, real estate and land developing concerns, drug stores, fraternal buildings and temples, dry goods and grocery stores, wholesale commission merchants, tailor shops, furniture stores and a thousand and one other racial enterprises which we will not attempt to mention here, but suffice it to say, they came as a result, pure and simple, of the thinking, planning and working of those who had a vision. Hard. straight thinking. enables a man to see himself as others see him. Thinking causes one to see lilies, or her real condition, and creates within him or her a desire for the best like all other sensible civilized peoples. If the other fellow desires and longs for an opportunity to educate his children, out of frankness, I must admit that he is right, and that is exactly what I want. If he wants to operate a successful business, "that's me." If he wants a nice little bank account, I want one too. If he wants a decent home to live in, so that his family may have sanitary surroundings, "that's where I shine." If he wishes to be in a position to render assistance to a worthy member of his race, who may find his or herself absolutely in need, that's the very position in which I want to be. And on and on we might enumerate, at length, but what's the use? Are not the foregoing your sentiments? Have I not given the real facts in the case? Is there an honest white man or a courageous Negro whom you would believe on his oath, in the entire state of Georgia, who can truthfully dispute one word along this line? The truth to tell, is simply this, human nature is the same the world over, always has been and always will be. As strangely as it may seem, there are young men of the race, who believe that many of the great business enterprises conducted by men and women of the race came to them through some "hook or crook," and they are now waiting for something like that to come their way, so they too, may be at the head of some great Negro business concern. But nothing could be further from the truth. Any time you see a man or woman of the race at the head of some great enterprise you may put it down once for all time to come, that that man or woman, as the case may be, thought, planned and worked his or her way to the place where the happy-go-lucky fellow thought was attained only by some "hook or crook." There are men and women of the race in the state of Georgia, who are doing business and who are succeeding as business factors in their respective communities, who, I dare say, have not thought what it will mean to the business element in this state to make the sacrifice to go to the National Negro Business League which is to meet in the city of Chattanooga, in the month of August, coming. It can not be truthfully said that the reason for their seeming carelessness in this regard is down right selfishness, but on the other hand, it is largely due to the fact, that they have not taken the time to think of what their presence will mean to the promoters of this national Negro business organization. Nothing done by the Negro business element in this state will give the president, the Mon. J. C. Napier, and the national secretary, Emmett J. Scott more genuine pleasure than to know that Georgia, the richest of all states in this union of states, so far as the Negro is concerned will make a showing at the forthcoming National Negro Business meeting, commensurate with its numerical strength and its great wealth. Therefore we must earnestly appeal to the Negro business element in this state, to present yourselves at Chattanooga in August, in numbers that none will have cause to gainay. As we will have only one more meeting before the National Business League meets, we earnestly urge that every member of this local league attend the next meeting, which will be at headquarters, Wednesday vening, August 1. Don't miss this last meeting before we leave for the national meeting at Chattanooga. NOTICE!

THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE, SAT In Memo CARTER—In loving memory of Mrs. Carrie Carter, died July 21, 1916. Oh, dearest, sweetest mother, since you have passed away it seems not that it is years ago, but only yesterday. When'er we speak your loving name, our eyes with tears are wet; oh, how we love you and love cannot forget. Daughter and son. Ada and Chestley Welch HOLMES—In kind and loving memory of our dear friend and father, Mr. Mack Holmes, who departed this life July 23, 1916, one year ago today. We have lost a father and friend, one whose memory will ever be before us, one whose words of consolation, kindness, tenderness and true instruction shall guide us onward to that grand eternal plane.
