The Savannah Tribune. VOLUME XXXIII MANY GRADES ARE DOUBLE SESSIONED Surpasses Last Year's Enrollment by 364 Pupils The four Negro public schools of the city opened Monday with the usual rush for seats. The total enrollment at the close of school yesterday afternoon was 3,700, an increase of 364 over the enrollment of last year at the close of the first week of school. 3. The seating capacity of the schools is practically the same as last year, the increased enrollment being provided for by additional double sessioned grades at two of the four schools. The total number of grades this term which will handle two sessions a day is 19 as compared to 13 last year. The Cuyler street school in addition to the added sixth grade will have nine double sessions, the East Broad six, West Broad three and Maple one. The redistricting of the schools this year was accompanied by many transfers which in many instances occasioned some little protest from parents who objected to their children being forced to make such long trips to and from school. The problems of the principals along this line were many and hard to settle but by the middle of the week they had succeeded in getting the children all properly placed. One of the most pleasing features of the opening of school this year for the parents was the free distribution of text books. This problem was met this year by having the children in the lower grades pay a rental fee of 50 cents for all the books and other supplies needed for them for the first half year, while those in the higher grades paid 75 cents for the use of books. The change, however, did not find absolute favor at first for many of the less informed of the parents were of the opinion that this fee had to be paid by their children each week instead of only twice a year. This idea, however, was gradually dispelled, and after the parents found out that the fee charged covered the rental of books for a half year and that they would not have to go to any other expense for books and school supplies for at least four months, they did not hesitate to enter their children. The full distribution of books to the pupils was not completed up to the close of school yesterday because of the fact that the board was unable to get a great portion of the books from the publishers on time. Only about half of the books have been given to the children. the school authorities hoping to have the remainder here by some time next week. On Wednesday afternoon Superintendent Gibson and the supervisor, of the primary grades and the supervisor of music in the system met with all the teachers at the Cuyler street school. Supt. Gibson explained certain new methods which have been inaugurated in the system, among them the carrying on in each grade of the advanced and backward pupils, making two divisions in each grade. Heretofore, the school has been divided into three terms. This has been changed and now there are but two terms of four and a half months each. Another innovation will be the twice-a-year promotions. In years gone by a child was compelled to go the whole nine months before being promoted to a higher grade, now those who are smart enough can secure promotion at the expiration of four and a half months, or twice a year. The following is the enrollment of the four schools.at the close yesterday and also that of a corresponding time last year. The county schools all show a fair enrollment which together with that of the city, private schools will be given in next week's Tribune. ANNOUNCEMENT Mrs. Perditha Riley wishes to announce that she is now holding the position of principal at the Burroughs public school, Burroughs, Ga. The opening of the new Woodville school last Sunday afternoon was a beautiful and fitting ceremony. Addresses were delivered by several citizens, by the new principal, R. T. Gibson, and by Superintendent of Schools, Carlton B. Gibson. Woodville school is the most beautiful and thoroughly equipped school, considering all the conditions, that we have ever seen, and we have seen a great many. The building is admirably well designed for its purposes, large rooms, plentiful black-board space, modern desks, an abundance of light sanitary floors, modern sanitary drinking fountains, running toilets and a central heating plant. The spacious hallway provides ease of movement of all the classes, as well as plenty of ventilation and light to all parts of the building. Singularly modern is the arrangement and convenience for keeping hats, cloaks and umbrellas. The beautiful structure is painted in soft, bright colors, and the ensemble is very pleasing and refreshing. The building is an eloquent testimonial to the eminent fitness of the superintendent for his work in this city and county. In his address to the patrons and pupils last Sunday, he urged them to respect and appreciate the building, to assist the principal and teachers to keep it clean, and to make it a community centre of uplift for all that section. The most touching incident of the day was reached when Superintendent Gibson, calling Mrs. Frank Cain to the platform, introduced her as the one individual, who, more than any other, was responsible for the beautiful school being erected. He referred to Mrs. Cain's long service and excellent work at Woodville under adverse conditions, and said that the new school came as a crowning reward for her labors. About one thousand persons attended the exercises and inspected the school plant. With the opening of school last Monday, Principal Gibson has enrolled between 300 and 400 pupils and prospects indicate an increase to around 500. Supt. Gibson advised the people to organize parent-teachers' association in the community for the purpose of assisting the teacher in the community work and the beautifying of the school grounds. ATLANTA NEGRO SELECT MEN ARE BANQUETED Atlanta, Oct. 4.—More than 4,000 Negroes gathered at the Atlanta auditorium today to greet and cheer the 154 Negro select men of Atlanta who were given a dinner there by prominent Atlanta citizens prior to their departure to Camp Gordon. The auditorium was decorated with flags and bunting and the building rang with cheers and applause in response to the remarks of the speakers. Mayor Asa G. Candler made the leading address in which he expressed his confidence in the valor and bravory of the Negroes. Dr. H H. Proctor, pastor of the First Congregational church, colored, declared that nowhere in America could such a scene as this he duplicated and said that Atlanta had made history and the Negroes would not forget the consideration, kindness and confidence which had been placed in them. After the dinner and speeches by other well known Negro leaders, the select men took the train for Chamblee and reported at Camp Gordon, which is busy today receiving Negro troopers from three states represented at the camp. FIRE DESTROYS NINE HOUSES IN WEST SAVANNAH Houses .the Property of .Dr. B. W. S. Daniels Fire destroyed nine small houses in West Savannah, Fair street, early Wednesday evening. The houses were the property of Dr. B. W. S. Daniels and were a total loss. The city fire department responded to the call but before they were able to do anything the fire had made almost a clean sweep of the frame buildings. It was stated that the origin of the fire was unknown, but it was thought by some that it might have been caused by some mischievous person. The crowning event of the year will take place Tuesday evening November 29. Will you be there? SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, SATURDAY OCTOBER 6, 1917 PARADE, MASS MEETING AND BANQUET FOR NEGRO SELECTMEN A SUCCESS Ladies of Local Red Cross Chapter Add to Setting of Brilliant Banquet at Savannah Home Association Patriotic Address by Rev. W. G. Alexander THOUSANDS LINE THE CITY'S PRINCIPAL STREETS AS CITIZENS AND DRAFTED MEN PASS IN REVIEW The Citizens' Committee, acting under the auspices of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, were amply and splendidly rewarded for their efforts, in behalf of the Negro select men, in the brilliant spectacle which their public parade presented to the citizens of the city at large, and in their still more splendid mass meeting and banquet. It was a red letter day both for the drafted men and for the people at large, in inspiration and in emphasizing the principles of nationalism and patriotic citizenship. lection and thought." And they talked—except those referred to by Dr. Alex ander as being "too full for utterances. The most charming repast was served in very pleasing style by members of the Negro Chapter of Red Cross, dressed in the regalia of the organization. J. G. Lemon was to-tmaster, and following the introduction of Messrs J. J. Brown and C. L. McCoy, toasts were made as follows: The Red Cross nurses, A. B. Singfield; the Negro Soldier, Dr. B. M. Pinckney; Corporation Among Negroes, J. R. Davis; The Spirit and Temper of the Soldier, D. W. A. Harris; The Negro Army Office As the unique parade passed through the streets, at dusk, the whole city of Savannah was out to see it, and several times along the line of march, groups of citizens cheered or waved flags. A beautiful acknowledgment of this evidence of patriotism and national pride on the part of our people came in the extremely cordial greeting from a group of ladies who stood on the portico of Confederate Memorial hall, illustrating that, after all, there is general recognition of commonness of cause. The brilliant and illuminating address of Dr. W. G. Alexander at the church, following the parade was a fitting climax to the interesting exercises of the day. The speaker pictured in glowing and impressing terms the high duties of patriotic citizenship, reciting the glorious and valiant history of the Negro soldiers in the past wars, and recounting the matchless loyalty and courage of Negro soldiers from the days of Crispus Attucks to those of Sergt. Houston at Carrizal. Dr. Alexander pleaded with the vast assembly to waive their present minor misgivings and grievances, and szeled the opportunity of participating in all the functions of free government, for he said, "this is the only way in which citizenship can be won." He charged the drafted men regarding the grave responsibility which rests upon them, of sustaining the enjigable record of Negro soldiery. He urged them to be dutiful, courageous and submissive to discipline, for "these qualities," he said, "are characteristic of the good soldier." The address was warmly received and the men, betrayed the encouragement and inspiration they received. The prayer of Rev. Daniel Wright, pastor of the P. B. B. Church was fervent. E. H. Burkes J. E. Wright and J. G. Lemon, made short addresses. The sumptuous banquet which followed close upon the mass meeting and which was served in the handsomely appointed club rooms of the Savannah Home Association, put the finishing touches to "a perfect day." An elaborate menu, prepared under the masterly and skillful direction of that prince of good men, Mr. J. J. Brown, ably assisted by Mr. C. L. McCoy, put the after dinner talkers on edge. They really had "food for re- SAVANNAHIAN AN INSTRUCTOR AT VOORHEES SCHOOL Prof. John Q. Adams Appointed to Important Post Mr. John Q.

And they talked—except those referred to by Dr. Alexander as being "too full for utterance." The most charming repast was served in very pleasing style by members of the Negro Chapter of Red Cross, dressed in the regalia of the organization. J. G. Lemon was to-tmaster, and following the introduction of Messrs, J. J. Brown and C. L. McCoy, toasts were made as follows: The Red Cross nurses, A. B. Singfield; the Negro Soldier, Dr. H. M.

Taylor; Our Guests, the Drafted Men, Dr. W. G. Alexander. The occasion illustrates more and more the increasing vision of Colored men of the greater aspect of Negro citizenship and a broader conception of higher duties of Negro leadership, in pointing the way to a firmer and super grasp of the ideals of progress. The following are the select men who were called Thursday and who left yesterday for camp Gordon, Atlanta. There were thirty-one men in the party which was made up from men selected from both east and west sides of the city. The east side men had, as their leader Ezekiel Simmons while the west sides were under Leader Thomas Robinson and assistant leader Joseph Bennett. Last Side: Izekiel Simmons, leader.

SCOTT Appointed Special Representative of Our People at War Department The interest of more than twelve million colored people of this country will be represented by Hon. Emmet J. Scott, secretary of Tuskegee Institute, at the War Department, during the war. This appointment was announced on Thursday by Secretary Baker. Mr. Scott has been connected with Tuskegee Institute about twenty years, and is among our safest leaders. Houston, Tex., Oct. 1.—The Eighth Illinois Infantry has recently been ordered to Camp Logan here, it was announced to night. Camp Logan is the place at which Negro troopers of the Twenty-fourth United States Infantry were located when they went on a rampage in Houston during August killing white citizens. The information that the Negro soldiers would be sent to the same camp as the other Illinois soldiers, came from Washington to Brig. Gen. Todd, acting commander of the Thirty-third division, to-day. F. A. B. SUNDAY SCHOOL In an eight weeks rally, waged in the form of a war, four generals and their staffs, representing the leading powers now engaged in war, netted the First African Baptist Sunday school $137.70. Mr. S. M. Lee the superintendent and Mr. W. J. Ayers, assistant, were the central figures who declared war, and to them the credit is due for successfully planning the rally. Mrs. Maggie Grant, head of the American division, easily out generalized the French, German and the Japanese generals when she reported $75.35. She was awarded the prize of $5.00 in gold. Rev. J. B. K. Butler acting as jurist made the presentation from the pulpit in a few well chosen words. Mr. Chas. D. Alien general of the French division came in for second honors, reporting $45.00. Mr. Henry Frazler displayed the generalship of Von Hindenburg, but the strength of the Allies was too much for him and his forces. Mrs. Carrie Baker would have made a splendid flank movement, had her division not sustained the loss of a captain who became ill at the beginning of the battle. Rev. Goodall, pastor of the church will return from his vacation, and occupy his pulpit tomorrow. A large and enthusiastic gathering will greet him. MR. GILMORE RETURNS FROM THE NORTH Mr. Lee Gilmore, headwaiter at Hicks hotel, returned last Sunday from the north. Mr. Gilmore visited New York, Boston, Philadelphia and several of the large manufacturing towns of New England. He said that he found abundant work in all of the industrial centers and that labor in most places seemed to be at a premium. In many of the places he visited he found scores of Savannah men who went north during the large exodus of the past two years. They were all doing well and were much pleased with their surroundings. Several of the local artisans who are now in that section of the country, he found to be in many respectable positions and making good. He said that the men from the South are all doing well with the exception of that negligible few who were wandering from place to place, caring not for permanent employment. He found that the skilled laborers were receiving in most instances from $25 to $35 per week while common laborers were getting an average of about $2.50 per day. He also learned that most of the women were receiving about $2.50 per day and that there was a much greater demand for their service. Mr. Gilmore refutes the statement which appeared in one of the daily papers which he is quoted as saying that many of the Southern Negroes in the north are going to destruction. He says that that is not true and he did not make suh an assertion. He found them all, with but a very few exceptions, doing extra ordinarily well and that a few had any idea of returning to the Southland immediately. Mr. Gilmore was joined in New York by the Rev. Wm. Gray, pastor of St. John Baptist church, this city. They were shown many courtesies in the metropolis. HOUSE WARMING AT ROSE DHU Sunday was of special interest at the Rose Dhu school, on the Coffee Bluff road. In this modern school house gathered the patrons and friends of the community and city, also members of the board of education. Mr. C. B. Gibson, superintendent, brought greetings of cheer. He opened the doors to the community to use the building as its regular meeting place. He emphasized the fact that the Negro child needs education as much as the white child, and that these is no distinction in the new county schools. From every side was heard expressions of appreciation. Mr. Levy said he thought the first brick in the building was the beginning of the school but the first brick was laid Sunday. Demonstrator Williams and the ex-teacher, Miss Florence Callen, spoke very timely. Mr. Williams well get with the teachers to arrange the school ground. EVENING WITH DUNBAR AND SILVER SHOWER An evening with Dunbar and silver shower will be the treat at the Second Bantist church Wednesday evening Oct.17. Rare music will be an added feature. The admission is ten cents and the event will be pleasing to the large crowd that is anticipated. NUMBER 5 MUSICAL FESTIVAL BE BIG AFFAIR FIRST CONCERT GIVEN AT CITY AUDITORIUM BY NEGROES Will Be the Biggest Social Affair of the Year Following the announcement of the Festival of Music, which the colored citizens of Savannah through the Urban League, will stage at the New Municipal Auditorium on November 20, great numbers of people have expressed that it will be the most stupendous event ever put on in Savannah. The most common comment says "Everybody will be there," and the elaborate plans and expense being put forward by the committee contemplate a bumper attendance record. The wives and sweethearts are already planning the pretty things they are to wear, and are building high hopes for flowers and automobiles. A great many are going out in first class style, and it will be a good thing for our people to enter into this high class occasion with due dignity and preparation. Seldom have any people the opportunity to hear such renowned artists as Madame Anita Patti Brown and Kemper Harrud. These are musicians and artists judged by the world standard in such matters. The community chorus which is being selected and which will be directed by Prof. R. W. Gadsden, will afford a splendid chance for the public to hear our worthy local talent. On previous occasions, Savannah choruses have given splendid exhibitions before the public. At the Community Christmas tree and at the mass meeting in honor of the visit of Hon James W. Johnson, the chorus work was excellent. We are to have these very same people, though under more favorable circumstances, at the new auditorium, and we expect them to render the folk-songs and the National Negro Anthem in the most approved style. It would be a splendid thing if every man, woman and child in Chatham county could attend this concert. Music is a deep spiritual element and agent. It invigorates and inspires; it heals and soothes; it reconciles and satisfies. It has great power to harmonize men, and it will do great good in this community. The committee is engaged at working out the details of the big event and will be prepared to give these out to the public in a few days. It is thought that there will be four grades of tickets, due to the fact that there are four grades of seats at the auditorium. The committee will encourage the taking of groups reservations by clubs and blocks of seats by families and private parties. Interested persons will take notice and come forward as soon as the seats are placed on sale. Tickets will be placed on sale at the principal places of congregation, simultaneously and the most alert will get the best. Make no other engagement for Tuesday evening November 20. Ask why. NEGRO SOLDIER KILLS HIMSELF After Posing as White Was Forced To Admit His Race Chillicothe, O., Sept. 24—Forced to admit that he was an octooroon, Edward A. Lord, who came down from Toledo last week as a white man, slashed his throat with a razor last night, after he had been taken before his colonel and informed he would be segregated until such time as a Negro regiment had been formed. He died this morning in the base hospital. Nathez, Miss, Oct. 1.—Following a meeting here late today of business men and city and county officials, called to discuss the recent heavy exodus to the north of laborers, a petition was sent to members of the Mississippi delegation in Congress asking that they request the proper officials to in vestigate the matter. Hundreds of Negroes have left this section recently, 172 leaving Sunday for Little Rock where they stated they have been offered army training camp construction work. Belief was expressed by those present at the meeting that labor agents, acting for cantonment sub-contractors, had represented themselves as government officials. PAGE TWO EVENING GOWNS ACCEPT THE REIGN OF SIMPLICITY New York, Oct. 5—The question of evening dress, the "to be or not to be" of the decollete, seems to have been decided. The optimistic spirit of America has prevailed, and while there is not the same gorgeous display as in the past, evening clothes are worn, and rarely beautiful one at that. The President of the United States paid a visit to New York not long ago, and, together with Mrs. Wilson, passed an evening at one of the most enjoyable plays of the season. Of course, the house was widly enthusiastic; it was some time before the play could begin, and even then the audience paid more attention to the official boyparty than to the play. Mrs. Wilson was very simply dressed, but she seemed immensely interested in the bustle dresses on the stage and the costumes scattered everywhere over the house. O. MICHAEL A Victory on Empire Lines Pictureque, indeed, are the compromises effected by Fashion. The dresses are in the same wonderful tints and colors that have always been favorites, perhaps though a trifle subdued. Some are high in the back, square or round in front, with long sleeves of tulle or very short ones of the same material as the bodice or the overskirt. The waist that is cut straight across from shoulder to shoulder is very popular this year, for it gives the effect of a high neck. Simplicity and Lack of Trimming There is very little trimming on the new models. They seem to reply to a great extent on their line and color, and charming indeed is the result. C. W. H. The Charm of Lace and Tefeta One of the most attractive of the new modes in evening gowns is illustrated here. It is of rose-colored satin, bodice and skirt, with a filmy overskirt or tunic of soft mist-gray chiffon, stitched on the lower edge with rose-colored silk in the long, loose stitch which makes such a fascinating trimming. The collar and the short sleeves of the chiffon are stitched in the same manner. Good Taste in Slippers Just a word here about the slippers for evening; and the difference between those in good taste and those that are just a trifle too ornate and overtrimmed. Life has invented a new word; the verb 'to hoove,' meaning to conserve, and it is now being widely used. One must "hoove" one's food, of course, and equally, of course, one must "hoove" one's trimmings on every article of one's dress. Slippers that are good form are very plain, indeed. The long vamp is still with us; heels do not seem to be quite so high as formerly, for they, too, have been "hooved." Satin, the same color as the dress, is the first choice. A rhinestone buckle placed high on the slipper is very fashionable. Then one of the latest ideas in slipper decoration is a tiny bow of satin, a single bow of ribbon a quarter of an inch wide, perhaps. Many of the fall brides have chosen this for their wedding slippers. It gives the foot the long, narrow effect that is so distinctive. Slippers of brocade, of metal cloth, or of combinations of plain and figured materials are worn only in the most formal occasions. Indeed, the all-black or all white slipper is always appropriate and in good taste. Stockings must, of course, match the costume and the slipper. Fashions that Flatter. Every woman, no matter what her age, size or coloring, has a secret thrill and new hope each time she buys or plans a frock. Perhaps, now, she will attain that degree of perfection which she desires, and with the aid of the Fairy New Dress, show to the world that she is ever young and fair! With care and deep consideration she can do tibs, for there are fashions that flatter, fashions that make the best of one, fashions that create around one the atmosphere of charm and romance. The surplice style is one of these, and the evening dress illustrated here shows a rare combination of beauty and style. The tie-on waist and the shaped tunic are of champagne-colored taffeta, and lace of the rest of the dress is cream-colored. One unusual feature is the sleeve-puff of lace bound in the taffeta. Airy Fairy Accessories All the glow and glitter of the time ode when fireflies and other lights are bright are contained in the accessories for the evening costume. There are scarfs dripping with softillating beads, combs and fans on fire with flashing lights, thine-tone buckles on slippers, and precious jewels on white hand and arms. There is not the overloading of fingers with rings nor the many chains and neck ornaments as formerly. This year the woman of good taste prefers one perfect thing, be it ring, brooch or bracelet, to the dozen of small odds and ends of yester years. All of which goes to make up the overwhelming beauty of any gathering where fashion and patriotism work hand in hand. GOVERNMENT POST PONES COMMISSIONING NEGRO OFFICERS By P. L. Everett in Dallas Express The men attending the officers' training camp at Des Moines, Ia., were given a terrible blow on Thursday, the 13, when Gen. C. C. Ballou had the 17 provisional regiments to assemble on the parade ground and announced that the Secretary of War had sent back to him the recommendations that he sent to Washington, for the commissioning of over 700 men of the camp, and that camp would be continued until 004.15. In the course of his remarks he said that certain person or persons were fighting the camp and that the camp was forced upon the government and that the trouble at Houston, influenced the government in taking this step, and that a short time after the trouble, the authority at Washington, started to close the camp. He further stated that the government had more officers recommended for commissions than they knew what to do with. He reviewed the history of the camp and told us of the progress that we had made and that the eyes of the United States were focused on the camp and that he wanted all of the men from civil life to remain although their contracts expired on the 14. They would have to sign new contracts and take new caths, but that those who wanted could take their discharges and that the government would make some disposition of them by Oct. 15. perhaps commission those that are recommended and put them on the reserve list never to be called. We had our final examination on the 29 of Aug., and were held in suspense within 24 hours of the completion of our contract with the government and instead of being told who were successful we got what was stated above. The colored citizens and the Chamber of Commerce had planned to give the candidates a swell reception at the auditorium on the 13, and were to have the presentation of the commissions there. It was too late for them to change their plans, so they carried them out without the main feature. The shock was so great that the whole camp lost its morale. The majority of the men had made arrangements to be away only three months. Wives were expecting their husband-home and mothers their sons. But all had to be dis-appointed. The majority of men looked upon it in the right way and concluded that they would remain and let the responsibility fall upon the government and not upon them as quilters.

The Masons Negro Masonry It is indeed pleasing and highly gratifying to Negro Masons to note that "Light" is penetrating darkness, dissipating prejudices, broadening views and enlarging visions relative to Universality of Masonry, the Brotherhood of Man, the Fatherhood of God. Neither color, caste, creed nor country is a bar to becoming a Mason, if worthy and qualified. A commendable and appreciative conversion has taken place and it is now generally conceded that since "Masonry is a system and science of Truth and Knowledge," is virtue—terperance, prudence, fortitude, justice and right should be disseminated and find lodgment in the hearts of all men, that its broad principles of Brotherly Love, Relief and Truth, should unite by the ties of a common humanity, men of every race and clime, sect and opinion in the great universal movement for mental, moral and material uplift. For with the church, Masonry wields the most potent influence for good in the world. We believe it was instituted with God's sanction and approval; a divine plai to teach and intensify the relationship and the obligations of man to his fellow-man, to teach him to be sympathetic, kind-hearted, loyal and true. Its sublime mission is to defend the right, relieve suffering, alleviate plan, sorrow and care and scatter happiness, hope and sunshine. It stands and contends for intelligence against ignorance, virtue against vice, love against hate, for peace and harmony against strife and discord, for justice and mercy against sillfisnness and prejudice—to make the world brighter, better and more livable. The Negro's Part In the contest for these humanitarian principles and their propagation, the Negro must have his part, for "Masonry is not intended for any class or race, but for all mankind. Any system of morals not broad enough to embrace all men possessing the requisite qualifications, unworthy of support and should not exist." Negro Masons are pro- record, proud of their efforts to keep the institution clean, proud that they have practiced by precept and simply its teachings, proud that they have had nothing but proper design in our trest board. specially proud that their colors are being used and pre- treated by all men he requires the call of the old men The color Masons have many to adore their whites have come to advance the world in general and our o tion has been the color ers of our emblems are usually the best and most intelligent of their race and leaders of all forward movements. Should the crucial test ever come, the white Masons will find himself answering and being answered in distress as quickly probably, as by the more advanced brother." Opinion of Masonic Home Journal Editor In the same publication of the same date we read from the pen of a highly esteemed Kentucky white Mason and editor that—"The practical workings of Negro Masonry have, so far as I have been informed, been almost universally beneficial and that Negro lodges are as careful in admitting candidates as are many white lodges, and require strict discipline." To which we add—It is an undisputed fact, and one of which we are proud, that crime and violation of law are almost unknown among Negro Masons. Effect of Masonry Among egroes Masonry develops the best in man, stimulates his desire for higher things, strengthens his moral courage, quickens his taste for light and knowledge, generates a thirst for culture and refinement, inculcates a higher conception of the rights and duties of citizenship, creates a greater love for man, and engenders a deeper faith in God. "Show me a people among whom is reared the Masonic Altar, and I will show you a community advanced in learning, prosperous in its physical development, united by ties of love and protection; where peace and order reign, and where to live is to enjoy the highest and best civilization the world has ever known," is as true of my race as it is of the white race. Relief a Duty We have dedicated all lives to the service of our fellowmen, believing it to be our sacred duty to lend a helping hand to the blind, the halt and the lame; to relieve the suffering of the sick and afflicted, and to assist the deaf and the dumb. It is ours to feed, clothes, lift, heal and save the distressed in body and mind, thereby aiding them to share in the foundational blessings, vouch-safed them by a kind and loving creator, joy, comfort, love and hope; without which the life of man is infinitely sadder than his death. Imperial Resignation Appreciated. they Perhaps the greatest source of gratitude to us is the friendly relation and the "official recognition" accorded to Mr. Masons by their white hat. Hope he true that "Col. Masons in the United States will be recognized by our Grand officers no footing with our men among all Masons, though they and others with No. 100 and other activities of the same name, for the a great reason we are trying to do in the world at large"—expresses the sentiments of white Masons of the South. Negroes Legitimate is Claimed It is now almost generally acknowledged by Masons that Negro Masonry is regular and legitimate. No longer must we labor to prove our right to teach and practice its principles and virtues, Masonic jurists and writers the world over practically agree that our claim to legitimacy is genuine and well established. Opinion of Another Editor The editor of one of the most influential and effective Masonic journals (white) of the South wrote one year ago—"In the case of Prince Hall Lodge the members were fully and properly initiated and made Masons in a lawful lodge by reason of the circumstance of the Revolutionary War and their race and color, they were denied the power of forming new lodges of their own race—a power which I assert is inherent in Masons, under proper restriction." Such being the case, they took the most reasonable and only course open and assumed the power to form new lodges—not of any person, but only among their own race. I feel that if we would take a broader view of the situation, seeking to render to every man his due, we must admit the right of the parent Negro Lodges to form new lodges in view of the exigencies of the case, when we take into consideration that Masonry is more than just the ordinary fraternity. "To my mind every Negro Mason lawfully made in a lodge having lawful authority from the governing body formed by the Prince Hall Lodge, is and of right ought to be in all respects regular."—E. B. Davis in "The Light." COLORED SISTERS—HANDMAIDS OF THE MOST PURE HEART OF MARY Very Rev. Father Lissner who has built substantial schools for the colored race all over Georgia, is not satisfied to teach them secular and moral standards, his aims are more坦率 reaching. He contemplates to educate colored boys and girls to become leaders, ministers, priests, mothers and sisters of charity. If the colored people are taught to keep the commandments of the Lord the church must also give to a few an opportunity for high places in the administration of such body segments and government of its congregations. Most of us are what our God God-bearing mothers made us. As a general rule, a race or a nation is more or less refined and prosperous according to the standard of its women and the greatest nation has the greatest If weulgavor to raise the coated people to a higher level we must start by elevating the women to be pure thrivive industrious and charitable We also must teach the boys and young men to respect their sisters. If we do not save the boys and girls of to day, the whole race will go to pieces and deteriorate by its own immunibility. For this reason, Futher Lissner has made a selection from the best women of the colored people and incorporated them into a community of religious sisters, of which Mother M. Cheadare is the superior. The religious sisterhood will be known as the Handmaids of the Most Pure Heart of Mary. All are emulated with a spirit of plety and zeal which promises great things for the colored race in the future. The convent is located on 30th and Harden streets. The young women who enter the convent will have to undergo a regular training to 'fit them for their apostolate. Every one will have to study domestic science and the various branches of any other secular education. But, above all, they must undergo a spiritual training in order to learn to practice themselves what they will teach later on to their own people. The lessons of good example will give those religious teachers the trust and love of their race and real success must follow. Next Sunday will be a great event in St. Benedict's church. At o'clock in the afternoon, fiveyoung colored ladies will receive the holy habit of the sisters of the Handmaids of the Most Pure Heart of Mary. They will be consecrated to the work of mercy for their colored people. All friends are cordially invited to attend the ceremony and thus encourage and render more prominent the loftiness of this solemn occasion. BUTLER PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH Butler Presbyterian church, Rev. S. T. Redd, pastor. Both sermons were filled with interesting thoughts. The subject at the morning hour was "The Promise of the covenant."

If food-stuffs are as high in the war region as in America, the war will not last another twelve months. The war department has issued orders to the effect that there will be one Negro unit established in connection with every one of the sixteen cantonments. We must keep reminding ourselves that hundreds of thousands of Negroes are already fighting "Somewhere in France." Our hats are off to those gallant young men who remained for the extra month's service at the training camp at Des Moines. It takes persistence to defeat subterfuge. Wouldn't it be, a timely thing for the President to speak out on discrimination, race prejudice and lynching? Thousands of Negroes have just gone forward to fight for liberty and democracy. Mayor Candler and the Atlantians rose up like the big men they are to pay honor and reverence to Atlantas Negro recruits. May Fortune hasten the day when the world over, men will "play no favorites." WOODVILLE AND ROSE DHI Negro education in Chatham county made a long stride when the Board of Education, upon the motion of Superintendent Gibson, gave to the colored people, two such excellent schools as that at Woodville and Rose Dhu. These schools are first-rate in every particular, and are designed and equipped in accordance with the best ideas in modern education. This great interest on the part of the official head and this better means of dealing with the problem of rural education, are going to bear rich fruit. Those fortunate communities are going to take on new life, and justify the faith of the Superintendent and the Board of Education in them. These sections of the county are going to be more productive of good citizenship and material resources, and the Board is going to be proud of having done this good thing. We should have such an excellent plant in every community center of our county, and we will, as time goes on and we use our opportunities well. These schools are a very fitting memorial to the high sense of fairness and justice and faith of the Superintendent and the Board for Chatham county's Negro youth. EMMET J. SCOTT The selection of Emmet J. Scott as a special assistant in the War Department, brings to that position of critical and serious responsibility, a young man eminently worthy of the great trust which the government reposes, and one fully competent and courageous for his exalted task. Mr. Scott has won the cordial respect and esteem of all classes of the people of the nation; he has a keen insight into the vexing problems of race relationship in America, based on a rare experience and opportunity to know it; and the interest of the race at this critical moment are in safe hands. We do not question his loyalty. We know his high fitness and his unsweary ing devotion and his undaunted courage. We have been patient and we have advised the suspension of judgment on the War Department's military policy toward the Negro. We have done this because we know that the military operations of a nation of over a hundred millions of people is a vast enterprise, and that it cannot take conjizance of the whims of demagogues like Tillman and Manning, any more than it can ferret out the minor problems of class relationships. The government's policy must be to win the loyalty and co-operation of all its citizens. Mr. Baker is slowly but surely "emerging", as some writer has said; his high sense of duty and fairness, together with his surpassing conception of the problems of war, are gradually unfolding themselves to the people. The selection of Mr. Scott is another milestone reached in the certain advancement of the race. TO THE BRAVE AND LOYAL RECRUITS The Negro citizens and civic organizations of Savannah, one and all of us, wish to impress upon those gallant young men who are to represent this section of the state and South in the new national army, that we are with you. The obstacles you are to meet, the difficulties you are to encounter, the hardships and privation you are to endure, are our obstacles and difficulties and hardships. We shall keenly sympathize with you wherever you are, and whatever your undertaking, all the time. You represent us. Pursuant to the plans of the national government, you have been selected, because of your special fitness and the other conditions surrounding your life, to enter the ranks of the army for training, and mayhap, to represent our government on the battle-field and in the trenches of Europe. You bear the mantle of brilliant achievement, by the illustrious Negro soldiery of the past, in your keeping. The blood of Negro soldiers has mingled with that of the white Americans on every battle-field in which Anrican arms have clashed. He has paid the "great sacrifice" for America, uninchingly and without cavil in every war. He has never opposed the government's policies in times of war; he has engendered no insurrectionary propaganda; he has never directly or indirectly, consorted with the nation's foes; he has never undertaken to promote industrial unrest and discontent at critical periods; he has furnished no Benedict Arnold in national history. All this glory, we repeat, is in your keeping, and you are charged to keep that brilliant record undefiled and unspotted before the world. You must "never let the old flag touch the ground." We do not doubt you. We have every faith and the supreme confidence in, your prowess and in your character. You could not help making good, true soldiers, with all the worthy traditions of your predecessors in the army. In the face of Cripus Attucks, the heores of San Juan Hill and Carriazal, how could you betray the glowing performances? We expect great things. The future of our race in this country depends a whole lot on the behavior and performance of Negro arms in this war. We know the handicaps and prejudices the Negro soldier must meet. You must "make good" in spite of these—you must mount upon your obstacles and overcome prejudices with accomplishment. You must re-emphasize the loyalty, the daring and skill of Negro arms. We have'nt had due consideration for our splendid past, but reward and due acknowledgement will come with the success which you will win. Hitherto, we have striven, as it were, in a corner, hid from the view of the great judges of the earth, but now we are on trial before all the eyes of the world, and what we shall do will be equitably appraised. You must begin to realize the grave responsibility upon you, ere this, and we expect to see you conduct yourselves "as becomes freemen" "Go to" young men, you have got to win! EVERY CHILD IN SCHOOL There must be no let-up in our efforts until every child of school age has been sent to school. Parents must be sought out and made to show cause why their eligible children are out of school. The children must be run from the streets and tames into the school houses. There is a law in this state against working a child under fourteen years of age. There is a pagrancy law and rule against truancy. The law will reach the neglected and disinterested parent and he who needlessly puts his young child out to work. It would seem that there is very little chance for the child of, school age to escape taking his place. It is not the parents' business and THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE, SATURDAY OCTOBER 6, 1917 not the child's whether he goes to school or works. First of all, the child belongs to the state, and the state is responsible to the child to educate him. Moreover, in its own defense and for its own advantage, the state desires to educate all its children. This is the theory of the free school. Parents, knowing the value of educating their children, who, however, keep them from school to work, or through negligence, are to a very large extent criminals. They should be hauled up before the courts and prosecuted and they will be. Civilization has about arrived at that stage. Parents can no longer neglect their children abuse them or take advantage of them. We have a singular opportunity in this city and county. The Superintendent is a man of broad vision and liberal mind. He openly urges every teacher and parent to go out and literally compel the children to come in to the schools, and once there, to offer every inducement and constraint to keep them there. Hitherto, we are accustomed to silence on this point from school officials, because of inadequate accommodations and lack of funds for hiring additional teachers. He says, "every child must have a seat." When, at Woodville last Sunday, he was complimented and eulogized for the excellence of his first year's work among us, and particularly, for the beautiful and well-appointed school building at Woodville, he, very modestly and magnanimously, gave the credit to others—to the architects, the contractors, the tax-payers, the Board of Education and to the former teacher there. He said, "We, the Board of Education, are only giving this school to ourselves, that we may the better do our work of educating the children; the Board is giving back to the tax-payers their own money, and showing a faithful stewardship." The Superintendent is taking "highground" in matters of education, as they relate to the Negro children, and we want our people to prove fully worthy of the splendid opportunities offered for educating their children. A census is being taken of all parent or guardian who have children of school age out of school. Vigorous, up positive steps are going to be taken to round-up these children and to cause them to be put in school. Parents must explain why their children are out-at work or for other causes. The ministers and other citizens are urging the people over their districts to take steps to put every child in their neighborhood in school, and good results may be expected. Reports from the first week's enrollment are very gratifying, and they indicate that the attendance records of last year will be eclipsed by large margins. Music rich and rare; costumes the latest styles and pretty ladies in profusion—Tuesday evening Nov. 20 SMITHVILLE, GA., NEWS Messrs Eddie Smothers and Henry Statum attended services at Bethlehem Sunday. Mr. Isaac Walker, Sr. made a short visit to Williamberg last week. Mr. A. D. Dorsey made a business trip to American Saturday. Mesdames Hanah Powell and Hanah Dennis spent the week end at Marshallville. Miss Willie Smothers has finished her course in hair culture, under the Superior Chemical of Tennessee. ST. PHILIP A. M. E. CHURCH Dr. S. G. Means, the evangelist, preached at both morning and evening services on Sunday and also conducted the Bible service at 4 p. m. in addition to the evening service. Miss Evangeline Harris the gospel singer has kept all of the meetings booming with interest and inspiration. We hope to have their services again soon. Tomorrow is communion day and quite a large attendance is expected. The officers and teachers of the Sunday school are urged to be present five minutes before time for opening Sunday school, which is 2:45 p. m. The monthly reports of the teachers and officers will be good. The secretary's report for the month of September, rendered in, the Board Wednesday night showed that $69.83 had been collected and $100.66 had been expended by the Sunday school. The teachers and officers invite all, who desire to engage in the study of the Bible to be present at 8 p. m. Wednesday night and spend one hour with them. This invitation is not only to the members of this Sunday school and church but to any one regardless of denomination.

The latter school is in charge of Mrs. Amanda Davis who has done such excellent work in the past year. Eight Franciscan sisters of the Immaculate Conception form the teaching staff of the other schools. Their efficient work in the past is a sufficient guarantee of success during this new term. Kindergarten and eight grammar grades, besides pain sewing, embroidering, needlework and vocal music, are included in the school's work. Children of all denominations are welcome.

Girls of the advanc- ed grades in the high school and elf- gible for the normal school have flock- ed in droves to the Burean of Engrav- ing and Printing ond many have been called to other departments and war conditions generally have occupied the popular mind to the exclusion of the rovtine affairs of other times. A point for the slump at the Normal 4 ssaid to be upholding of the Jaw per-' mitting female teachers to continue in, the schools after marriage.

Among the industrial enterprises operated by the race in this immediate community, none of them is so misunderstood and their work of racial up-lift so much discredited, as the seven Negro industrial insurance companies, which are really doing more tangible good in the matter of teaching the important lesson of thrift, industry and the habit of saving than all the other agencies of the race combined. As staggering as these figures are which we are herewith submitting, they are absolutely true, as we have taken the pain and the time to get them from the books of the seven Negro insurance companies, just as they were compiled for the week of Sept. 3rd of this present year. In the first place, we find that these seven Negro insurance companies pay in annual rentals to Negro land lords the sum of one thousand, six hundred and fifty dollars, for office space. We also find that they give profitable and pleasurable employment to one hundred and forty-one deserving young men and young women of the race. We find that they have a bonafide collectable, weekly debit of four thousand, four hundred, ninety-seven dollars and thirty cents. We find that they collected on that local weekly debit for the week mentioned above, Sept. 3rd, four thousand, seven hundred, ninety dollars and fifteen cents. We also find that they paid to their sick and disabled members, the sum of eleven hundred, seventy dollars and seventy cents, as weekly indemnities for the same week. We also find that they paid to the beneficiaries of deceased members the sum of two hundred eighty eight dollars and eighty-five cents. We also find that the one hundred and forty-one employees of these seven Negro insurance companies, as stated above, received for their weekly pay at the hands of Negro employers, for the same one week, as already stated some two or three times. Sept. 3rd, sixteen hundred, sixty dollars and fifty cents. From time to time, in this weekly letter we frequently use the overworked words "thoughtful" and "thotless". But when these startling and appalling figures are taken into consideration, which represents hard earn cash, from Negroes to Negroes, which in the main gives the Negro business man standing in the commercial world along side of the other fellow when this money is input into Negro enterprises, where members of the race will be given an opportunity to learn the intricacies of business by actually doing the thing, can you, dear reader, blame us for constantly appealing to the Negro to do some real straight, hard thinking? As strangely as it may seem to the real race loving Negro, these thousands of dollars which are being hapled weekly by these seven Negro insurance companies in this immediate community, only represents a small portion of what is paid weekly into the hands of the other fellow, where there is no possible hope of any Negro man or woman, matters not what religious, financially, or any of the other many what nots, to ever be any thing in these concerns operated by the other fellow into which many of our misguided and thotless people so cheerfully put their money weekly, but a janitor, cuspidor washer or window cleaner. But you ask do these baneful conditions, of which you complain come as a result of down-right meanness and the lack of confidence on the part of our people, who you seem to think prefer to do business with the other fellow rather than with honest, competent business men and women of their own race? I answer, no, a thousand times. Then you ask, what reason would you attempt to give in the defense of a race of people who would spend their money with concerns operated by the other fellow, whos agents make it the rule rather than exception, to come into the homes of many of our thoughtless people, who are so void of true race pride as to allow them so to do, with hats on their heads, and in some cases, with cob pipes in their mouths, calling out to your mother, wives and daughters, "Jane" "Tildy", "Mandy" or "Sue" bring me "that there book", I am in a hurry, I've got to go over to the parson and get his money before he goes out to see his members and get some more for me by next Monday? Then, you ask me do these representatives of the other fellow help to pay these preachers' salaries? To be truthful, I answer No. Then you ask, why do they show such little interest in the business men and women of their own race? My only answer to all the many questions you have seen fit to ask me at this time is simply this: These persons who allow representatives of the other fellow, who only know the Negro, as they have need for him, as a good thing, have not taken the time to think hard and straight, as to what it means to make Negro enterprises equal to those operated by the other fellow, who is striving with might and main to make of his concerns all which they are capable of being, so that his son and his daughter will have places in which to work that they may make decent and independent livings, and perpetuate the names of the promoters of the enterprises in which they are allowed to make such a living. Do you blame them? No, I know you don't. No same man can blame another for looking out for his own house hold. Somewhere in holy writ we find these words: "He that provides, not for his own house hold, is worse than an infidel and has denied the faith." An awful charge, and get that is exactly what some members of my and your race have done. The Negro insurance men in this community are calling on every minister of the lowly Nazarene, who is a member of the jim-crowed race to get on the job like men, and assist in the spreading of the gospel of thrift, racial uplift and last but by no means least, tell their people to keep Negro haters, matters not by what name they may see fit to go, out of their homes. Amen. BETHEDEN BAPTIST CHURCH Beth, Eden Baptist church, Rev. N. M. Clarke, pastor. Services were well attended Sunday.

Ix, 3-19—Quarterly Review—Golden Text, Ps. ciiI, 8. Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. LESSON I.—Isaiah's call to service, Isa. vi. Golden Text, Isa. vi, S, "Here am I; send me!" (We often abbreviate the Golden Text for lack of room.) We all need such a vision as this or Rev. iv, and these are written that we may have them and know God and bear His call to us and respond as Isaiah and Jeremiah and Ezekiel did, speak His words faithfully and leave results to Him. Lesson II.—Ahaz, the faithless king, II Chron. xxviii, 1-5, 20-27. Golden Text, Heb. xl, 6, "Without faith it is impossible to be well pleasing unto Him." Every king on David's throne was expected to represent the Lord there and be a king for God. Believers are expected to represent Christ in some measure as He did the Father. Are we good or evil in His sight? Lesson III.—Hezekiah, the faithful king, II Chron. xxx, 1-13. Golden Text, Heb. xl, 6, "He that cometh to God must believe that He is." There can be nothing better than to do right in the sight of the Lord (xxix, 2), make His house or His kingdom our first thought and do all we can to gather people to Christ our passover, who was sacrificed for us. LESSON IV.-Sennacherib's invasion of Judah, II Kings xix, 20-22, 28-37. Golden Text, Ps. xivl, 1, "God is our refuge and strength." It is surely inspiring to see two men, a king and a prophet, crying to God against such a host of enemies and to see one messenger from God taking 185,000 of the enemy off the earth in one night. Let us spread all our troubles before God as this king did. LESSON V.—God's gracious invitation. Isa. lv. 1-14. Golden Text. Isa. lv. 6. "Seek ye Jehovah while He may be found. Call upon Him; He is near." The worldwide thirst can be quenched only in God's appointed way, and that is by Himself, the fountain. No bread can satisfy but the Living Bread. He only can win the nations to Himself, and He will do it through Israel. LESSON VI.—Manasseh's sin and repentance, II Chron. xxxii, 9-16. Golden Text. Isa. lv. 7, "Let the wicked forsake his way; * * * our God will abundantly pardon." A great lesson to encourage great sinners to turn to a great Saviour, who never turned a true penitent away. He saved the penitent thief and Saul of Tarsus. Lesson VII.—Josiah's good reign, II Ohron, xxxlv, 1-13. Golden Text, Eucl. xil, 1, "Remember thy Creator in the days of thy youth." One of the youngest of all the kings, who had a very bad father, and yet he did right in the sight of the Lord, turning ne- ther to the right hand nor to the left, and none ever turned to the Lord with all his heart as he did (II Kings xxilt, 25). LESSON VIII.—Finding the book of the law, II Chron. xxxiv, 14-33. Golden Text, Ps. exix, 16, "I will not forget thy word." The word was received with meekness, the people humbled themselves before the Lord, the greatest passover since the days of Samuel was kept, and a great cleansing of the land from idols followed, including some of the idolatry started by Solomon Lessox, IX.—The captivity of Judah, II Kings xxv, 1-12. Golden Text, Ezek. xxxiii, 11. "As I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked." Long did He bear with them and many a time forgave them, but notwithstanding the zeal of Hezekiah and Josiah and the entreaties of Isalah, Micah and Jeremiah they would not hearken, and the captivity came. Lesson X.—The shepherd of captive Israel, Lzek. xxxiv. 11-27. Golden Text, Ps. xxiii. 1, "Jehovah is my shepherd; I shall not want." Not only did they return after the seventy years, but they will return for good at the end of this age and be one nation in their own land and never be divided or scattered again. Then shall they be a blessing to all nations. Lesson XI.—Daniel's purpose of heart, Dan. 1, 8-20. Golden Text, Dan. 1, 8, "Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself." This was because the food from the king's table had been offered to idols and Daniel and his friends would keep themselves wholly for God. Thus thy purposed and thus they continued. LESSON XII.—The fiery furnace, Dan. 11l, 18-27. Golden Text, Isa. xlll, 2, "When thou walkest through the fire thon shalt not be burned." The same Spirit who would not let them eat food offered to idols would not let them bow down to this image, even though it might mean their death. The same test will have to be met by many at the end of this age, Rey. xlll. Lesson XIII.—Daniel in the lions' den, Dan. vi, 10-23. Golden Text, Ps. xxxiv, 7, "The angel of Jehovah encampeth round about them that fear Him and delivereth them." The wicked are always watching the righteous and seeking to slay them, but their triumph will be short, and the upright will have dominion in the morning (Ps. xlix, 14). If we are in the way and walking before God in sincerity we may have quietness and confidence under all circumstances (Isa. xxx, 15; Job xxxiv, 29) and sing, "He is my peace" (Eph. 11, 14). THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE, SATURDAY OCTOBER 6, 1917. ROUGH HOUSE WARE WHO MEETS. TANGO KID MONDAY NIGHT AT T HE AIRDOME Ware Meets Tango Kid and Cameron Fights Holmes "A real big time scrap will be pulled off Monday night at the Airdome, Hall lane and West Broad street, when Rough House Ware of New York and Tango Kid of Panama meet in a fifteen, found boxing contest and Battling Holmes of New York and Rufus Cameron of California stage a ten round fight. The fans are sure to get plenty of action for their money, and Promoter Joe Jennings promises in this card one of the most thrilling programs ever offered to local fight followers. The Ware-Tango scrap is causing the wise ones among the know-alls of the game some little uneasiness for they have not got the exact dope on Tango while they are all to the good as to the ability of Rough House as a scraper of the first magnitude. It might be of some assistance to these wiseacres in doping out the result of this fight to state that Tango Kid has disposed of some of the toughest light heavyweights in this country and while in Panama was absolute master of this division of fighters. He will enter the ring Monday night with a slight weight advantage over his opponent and a couple of inches to the good in his reach. On the other hand the aggressive Rough House will have the edge in experience. The bout should be a corker as both men are in the pink of condition and ready to mix it fast and strong. The Cameron-Holmes ten round go as a semi-final should be a grand in production of the main bout, in fact, it promises to equal it. Both of these men are well known here where they have on previous occasions entertained the followers of the game. Cameron is one of the toughest nuts to appear here in years. Wile she is somewhat slow yet he has an awful wallop and endurance almost without end. Holmes is one of the younger fighters yet he is crafty, possesses excellent ring generalship and can hit like a sledge hammer. Cameron will have about five pounds on his opponent but the latter can easily overcome this handicap with his speed and cleverness. The light begins at nine o'clock with a mix up between several local youngsters. The admission price will be 50 and 75 cents.
