School Children Parade Monday
IN LIBERTY BOND EDUCATIONAL CELEBRATION
Every child in Line Should Carry Small American Flag
All the public school and many of the private school children of the city will take part in the big Liberty Bond Educational parade which takes place Monday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock. The parade will be headed by mounted police, followed by the faculty and students of the Ga. State College and the teachers and pupils of the four large public schools. The children will march in columns of fours with the small children in front.
The line of march has been made very short in order that the smaller children may not tire before the end is reached. The parade will form at West Broad and Gwinnett streets and proceed north on West Broad to Broughton, east to Jefferson and then south to the disbanding points. Each school will be designated by large banners or streamers and each class will be headed by the teacher.
It is especially desired by Superintendent Gibson that every child in line carry a small American flag. It is also desired that as many grown folks, preachers, teachers and others as possible take part in the parade.
The orders for the day, issued by the superintendent, are as follows:
Order of march—Mounted police, president and faculty of State College, student body of State College, college band, West Broad Street School, East Broad Street School, Maple Street School, Cuyler Street School, other educational institutions.
Order of Formation—State Coll. State College faculty and student group will form on Gwinnett street, head of column on West Broad, extending eastward. West Broad—Form on Gwinnett street, head of column on West Broad, extending westward Maple—Form on Bolton street, head of column on West Broad, extending westward. Cuyler—Form on West Broad, head of column on Bolton street, extending southward.
General Directions—Classes will form in ordinal notation, lower grades or classes at the front—1st 2nd, 3d, etc. All the school columnus formed by fours and in marching keep at arms length, four steps apart. School or college flag and a large placard designating the school will be at the head of each school column, three steps in front of the principal or leader. The principal five steps ahead of the first four. The grade teacher or class captain on the left of the first four of the grade or class. Distance of twenty steps should be kept between the rear of one school and the head of the next. All children should be urged to bring with them small flags.
A number of appropriate placards will be furnished by the Liberty Bond Committee to each school. Two couriers will be furnished each principal or leader from the boys of the Junior Industrial High school. The Industrial College Drum Corps will provide march music. The march will be down West Broad to Broughton, east on Broughton to Jefferson to disbanding points.
FREE KINDERGARTEN ASSO.
Reports from the recent entertainment by the Kindergarten Committee showed that the ladies were very successful and that every one is still zealous to push the campaign on. Contributions from the various churches were reported as follows: From St. Paul; through Mrs. Welcher, $2.00; from First A. B. church, through Mrs. Scott, $4.00; First Bryan, through Mrs. A. B. Singfield $3.00.
Mrs. Hamilton, treasurer, has returned from New York, and the president and Secretary, who have been ill, are about again and it is expected we shall go forward rapidly.
Members of the association, including Mrs. Z. E. DesVerney, Miss Cornelia McDowell, Mrs. Belcher, Mrs. Hamilton, Mrs. Jackson and J. G. Lemon addressed the Sea Side Working men's Union in Yamacraw, last week, day night. Rev. S. E. Scott of that organization, invited them and himself became a member of the association.

Will Take Place Monday Night At Headquarters
The annual meeting of the local branch of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes will take place Monday night at the League's headquarters, West Broad and Gwinnett lane. The league has accomplished much during the past twelve months and the reports to be rendered by the various committees will be very interesting. It is desired that all the members he present at the meeting.
LECTURE ON DANTE'S VISION OF HELL
Next Wednesday night, Oct. 24, at Gaines Chapel, Magnolia street, Rev. W. G. Alexander will deliver a lecture on "Dantes' Vision of Hell." It goes without saying that it will be a gem. Dr. Alexander is one of the oldest and most eloquent speakers of the race, and it would be a treat to hear him.
DOING A SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS
Mr. Edward J. Johnson, for a number of years a resident of this city, is now living in New Haven, Conn., where he is doing a striving restaurant business. His place is reputed as being the finest, in the city conducted by a Negro. His niece, Miss Mildred Carey, is conducting a hair dressing parlor in the same building and has a large patronage.
What Tuskegee Is Doing For The War
MANY STUDENTS IN OFFICERS' TRAINING CAMP Enrollment of School at Present Shows About 1211 Students
Tuskegee, Ala., Oct. 18.—Tuskegee Institute is doing "its bit" toward the prosecution of a successful war with our enemies. Announcements have already appeared in the press that sixty-seven graduates, former students, teachers and employees of the Tuskegee Institute have been at the Training Camp for Negro Officers at Fort Des Moines, Ia., and that Emmett J. Scott, secretary of Tuskegee and for eight years, secretary to the late Dr. Booker T. Washington, has been "loaned" by the Institute to Secretary of War Baker as one of the special assistants to ideal particularly with problems affecting the Negro soldiers. In addition to this, E. T. Attwell, business agent of Tuskegee, has been recently appointed Director in Charge of Food Administration work among the colored people of the state of Alabama. Mr. Attwell's campaign for food conservation among the colored people of the state was launched at Tuskegee, Friday evening, October 12th, when a unique display and one hundred thirty-eight varieties of products were shown, testing that these workers have been able in their spare hours to cultivate home gardens and thus contribute something worth while toward the nation-wide campaign to reduce the high cost of living. Following the exhibit, addresses were made by R. H. Taylor, director of the Mechanical Department and E. T. Attwell, business agent.
Principal Robert R. Moton has just received word from the state board of education of Virginia that graduates of Tuskegee Institute may teach in the state of Virginia without special examinations for House. At a recent meeting of the State Board, held on September 15th, it was decided that normal industrial certificates such as are issued graduates of Hampton and other schools of Virginia would also be granted to Tuskegee graduates.
The enrollment this year, up to October 15th was 1211, of which 647 are boys and 537 are girls. The number of young women enrolled this year maintained its usual average, while the number of young men who have come to school this year is slightly smaller that last year. This, of course, has been brought on by conscription and economic causes effecting the Negro in the South. Work is progressing on the new barn-house and cow-barn and the installation of the sewerage system.

TWENTY ATLANTA UNIVERSITY MEN ARE COMMISSIONED ARMY OFFICERS
FIFTY PER CENT. OF COMMISSIONS TO STATE WON BY MEN OF THAT SCHOOL
Two Made Captains and Eighteen Lieutenants
Men Given Great Ovation at School Thursday Night-A Total of 620 Men Commissioned at Fort DeMoines
27TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATED ( CANNING . CLUB ORGANIZED
Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 18-Atlanta University is running over with enthusiasm on account of the good fortune that has come to the A. U. men as a result of their work in the Des Molnes training camp. Everybody expected them to give a good account of themselves, but not even the most confident expected to see them bring home the heaps of laurels they have won.
Out of the entire Georgia contingent there were two captains chosen, one of whom is a graduate of Atlanta University, Capt. A. T. Walden of Macon and the other is captain Anderson Mays of Chicago, Ill., an Atlanta University student. Besides these are eleven first lieutenants and eight second lieutenants, all from Atlanta University. That represents more than 50 per cent of the officers chosen from the Georgia group and 75 per cent of the number of students sent from Georgia schools. The record is truly marvelous and bears fine testimony to excellent training, both mental and physical given by Atlanta University, and that testimony is worth all the more because it is the impartial, unbiased judgment of the War Department of the United States.
All the men arrived in Atlanta on Wednesday at noon and were given a great ovation at the University and in addition a reception, on Thursday night. Besides, the men front Georgia, men, in other states, like Mr. Walton D. Smith, first lieutenant from Chattanooga, Tenn., have also brought honors to Atlanta University.
The 27th anniversary of the Nicolsonboro Baptist church was observed last Sunday. A large number of friends from the city were in attendance. The annual sermon was preached by Rev. Dan. Wright, who succeeded the lamented Rev. Alex. Harris as pastor. The sermon was able and heartily received by the hearers. The collection was one of the largest ever raised, the members contributed liberally through the envelopes. About $76.00 were raised which is a large amount for the congregation. All of the visitors were well cared for and given a sumptuous dinner. The members of this church are among the most progressive in the county.

Our people should join the forces of the patriots and purchase Liberty Bonds. This is one of the first methods by which the country can be helped in its warfare.
Banquet To Follow Auditorium Musical
TO BE BIGGEST SOCIETY EVENT OF THE YEAR Many Parties Expected to be Present From Out of Town
The committee having in charge the arrangements for the Grand Musical Festival of Nov 20. at the New Municipal Auditorium, is still unable to announce the opening of the seat sales. Floor plans, with seat numbering and box designation have not yet come from the architect. Full announcement however will be given so as to give every person equal opportunity to purchase the choice tickets, it appearing that the demand will greatly exceed the supply.
Parties are being formed, clubs and organizations are aroused, and application for full boxes and blocks are rapidly coming in. Several inquiries have been received from parties expecting to motor from Brunswick, Macon, Waycross, and Augusta. Indications are that every available seat in the great building will be taken and that there will not be room to accommodate all who will apply. All t he seats even in the galleries are advantageously located.
Following the grand concert, a Citizens' Banquet and Reception for the renowned artists will be held at the Masonic Temple. Attendants upon the concert will repair directly to the Temple, where opportunity will be had to meet Madam Brown, her distinguished accompanist and Kemper Harrold in a formal social way. Refreshments will be served. Tickets to the banquet will be fifty cents, seventy-five cents a couple. Attendance upon the banquet is entirely optional, and separate tickets will be provided for this occasion. The primary purpose of the banquet is to give the public an opportunity to meet these leading artists of the race.
The banquet feature will be in charge of a committee from the Free Kindergarten Association and any proceeds will go to the kindergarten work.
Already society folk are busy planning what will be worn, and the city is alive with preparations.
Be not deceived into believing that we are overstating the demand for tickets, or you will regret your negligence. The committee has had calls for over a hundred dollar tickets already and the concert is five weeks away.
Many parties plan to motor to the concert hall and from thence to the brilliant banquet at Masonic temple.

URGE PASSAGE OF LAWS PROHIBITING SEGREGATION
National Race Congress Holds Second Annual Meeting
The following report was adopted by the National Race Congress, Oct. 4, 1917 at Washington, D. C.: To the President and Members of the National Race Congress:
At this, the second annual session of our Congress, we, your committee, beg leave to submit the following report on the present state of the country:
1. Together with the whole nation, our group is sharing its quota of the burden to the greatest war known to the world, and in proportion to the contribution we make to secure the world the much sought peace, we shall share the benefits of the "New Democracy" recently declared to be the ultimate objective of the war.
2. Out of the world war have grown economic conditions and problems that affect us directly and indirectly. At present, we are confronted with an unusual economic necessity. We are being forced by necessity and circumstance to transplant, in unusually large numbers, our accustomed places of abode in the southland to new and untried localities in the northlands. We are migrating in numbers heretifore unknown.
3. Our migration has given rise to labor problems, political problems and social problems calculated to effect every phase of our national life. In the North, we are face to face with opposition in the labor world, and no little criticism is being expressed n an apparent leffort to disturb the Negro in his new field of labor. We are the victim of one of three agencies. Either the labor unions of the north are opposed to Negro labor in the various industries of the north; or there is at work a secret agency from the south, seeking to so disturb labor conditions by labor riots as to frighten the Negro back to southern soil and southern employment; or the Negro is encountering extreme difficulty in adjusting himself to new employment and the attendant high wage.
We note the general necessity for a constant course of instruction to our people who have been affected by this new change of habitation and occupation. We recommend that the press, the pulpit and platform be dedicated, at least in part to a continued course of instruction of the thousands who have come north to live under entirely new conditions and new laws; that obedience of the law be taught at every opportunity, efficiency and reliability be held before them as essentials; that thrift and economy be urged generally.
5. We call attention to the peculiar situation arising out of the draft of ur men for the National Army. There is danger of unwise comment upon the method of procedure adopted by the administration relative to encampment, training and ultimate employment of Negro soldiers. We urge the exercise of caution in our remarks, and the cultivation of loyalty to the country forever, and especially at this time when it is evident that deceptive agencies are at work seeking to arouse us to disloyal expressions and general disruption.
6. Nor must the abnormal condition of the markets of the world be overlooked. Money is plent for at prices are abnormal and the danger of a period of extravagance due to the unusual flow of money a corresponding danger of a disturbance of credit due to a lack of appreciation of t he extremely high cost of living.
7. Our educational institutions generally, and the public schools especially in the south, are suffering because of t he unprecedented demand of the world war. We exhort the nation to a villigent practice of economy and good judgment in order that our educational system may not be rendered less efficient. Especially do we urge a strict watch-care over those sections of the south where appropriations for public school, education are made without due and equal consideration of the Negro children.
The extra ordinary burden of our national tax is a subject for serious consideration. To meet the increasing demands of our government for money with which to prosecute to successful conclusion the world war, and at the same time be able to appropriate our usual amounts to education, the spread (Continued on Page Eight)

New York, Oct. 12.—There is a kind
of breathless interest, here in New
York, over the battle of the bustle
and the straight silhouette. Today,
one is sure. that the long skirt and
tunic, in other words the straight sil-
honette, is triumphant; tomorrow,
there may be seen so many charming
examples of the bustle frock, both on
the street and on the stage, that one
thinks it surely will be accepted. How-
ever, at the present moment, the une-
piece dress and the frock with the
Tong tunie seem to be the “favorites.
On the stage, to he sure, the bustle
is most attractive. ‘There is some
thing very graceful about the fall of

When you are working in the interest of Masonry you are bettering the condition of society in the vicinity in which you live. Masonry sets an ideal moral standard and obligates its members to live up to it. Some may fail, but the man who remembers his obligations and is a Mason at heart never will. Yes it pays to encourage Masonry in more ways than one.—Queenland Freemasonry.
A Masonic lodge should resemble a bee hive, in which all the members work together with ardor for the common good. Masonry is not meant for cold souls and narrow minds, that do not comprehend its lofty mission. Here the anathema against luke-warm souls applies. To comfort misfortune, to popularize knowledge, to teach whatever is true and pure in religion and philosophy, to accustom men to respect order and the proprieties of life, to point out the way to genuine happiness, to prepare for that fortunate period, when all the factions of the human family, united by bonds of Toleration and Fraternity, shall be but one household; these are the labors that may well excite zeal and enthusiasm.—Tlbert Pike.
Our Masonic Home
The one matter that demands the most serious consideration of the entire craft in Georgia, today, is, what shall be the attitude toward the Masonic Home. This institution is no longer an experiment. Its necessity is universally acknowledged. The results derived are the pride and admiration of every one who has taken the time to observe. Its mission has grown upon the vision of the Craft and the demand for admission has far outgrown the facilities for sheltering and providing for the worthy ones who knock at its door.
Two serious conditions exist, there must be more room, there must be larger provision made for sustenance. The question that projects itself to Georgia Masons is: Will you relieve this situation?
Th home had its birth in a noble sentiment. Its infancy was fondled and cared with an enthusiasm that was truly commendable. The sentiment still survives but the enthusiasm has waned.
The Grand Lodge, with its limited funds, did build this nucleus of a home, and with free will offerings and generous donations from the cognate bodies, has maintained it so far.
This is the grandest, noblest enterprise of Georgia Masonry. It is the one possessed in which every Georgia Mason is personally interested. Where is the loyal craftsman who does not stand up and proclaim it as "Our Home?" Indeed and in truth it is "Our
Home." Here are sheltered and fed and trained the children of our brethren, who through misfortune, passed away leaving the little ones destitute and helpless, with no hope save in our generosity. In "Our Home" the wall of want is hushed with plenty, the pining heart burdened with loneliness, is soothed with mother's love and father's gentle counsel. Duty, compassion, love of our brethren demand this recognition at our hands. Will not each of the fourteen thousand of Masons in Georgia lay upon his heart the burden, aye, the joy, of making "Our Home" the most commodious, the best kept, the most delightful home in all Georgia?
Does it Pay?
There are some of us who are devoting a great deal of our time to Masonry and we sometimes ask ourselves whether or not it pays because this is the question which is paramount in this commercial age. There is, however, one reward that the Masonic devotee receives which is sometimes not counted and that is friendship. It cannot be denied that some of the friendships made around the Masonic altar are of the most pleasant and lasting character. The writer knows of many men who are warm personal friends who made their first acquaintance in a Masonic lodge room. And not only has the friendship been maintained but it has grown stronger with the passing years. In fact as our ritual states it is one of the purposes of Masonry to conciliate a truer friendship among those who might otherwise remain at a perpetual distance. There is something peculiar about Masonic ties. They seem to be more sacred and enduring than any other except family ties and many who have given freely of their time to the work of Masonry without hite reward of official preferment have received that higher award of true and lasting friendship. Illinois Freemason.
Brotherly Love
Sympathy is brotherly love in action. It is in its literal meaning formed of two Greek words meaning "suffering with" another. There is one great fact in human life that stands out very prominently, and that is the universal need of sympathy. Every one hungers for it. Some with a most in-tense desire. No one is free from it of course we should be so strong in our courage that we could get on with out it. So much the better for the strong ones, but even they sometimes long for it.
Sympathy enters into the trials and troubles of others, gives hope to the dependent, cheers the disolate, encourages the struggling. Many a man who commits suicide might have been saved and his life made successful if he had chance to meet a friend with
a glad hand, a smile of recognition, a kindly word, or a loving inquiry, as to the cause of one's troubles. We are our brother's keeper and every man is our brother. Sometimes we feel cast down, humbled; no one seems to care for us, we imagine that we are of no use in the world, are complete failures. A sense of utter loneliness for a while takes possession of us. No one would miss us. We might better be dead. At such times how heavenly it is to meet with a cheery brother, who seems most genuinely and honestly to care for us, to value our friendship, to be glad to see us.

Elaborate arrangements have been made to make the fair which will be held for the benefit of the Colored Catholic schools, Nov 5-12, a big event. The beautiful hall, 552 E.

Then the clouds are gone, the sun shines again, and life seems bright and happy. A word of praise over, something we have done, recognition of one's talents or goodness, an intelligent comprehension of our thought and ideals, a sympathetic interest in our plans, how helpful all is. You can make a man sick by telling him he looks ill. You can make a man succeed by telling him he will succeed. All this is one of the highest missions in this life. It can not be done unless one has in his heart a genuine feeling of brotherly love which destroys selfishness by suffering with others who suffer? This is a tenet of real Masonry. Do you practice it?—Masonic Sentinel.
Masonry stands unalterably opposed to all evil in motives or practice, to every form of bigotry and intolerance. It stands as the champion of the largest liberty and action. I would emphasize what another has said. The most homeless and pitiful condition in human existence today it that of the man of splendid scholarly and intellectual attaljment who is bankrupt in the very essence of true manhood—an all-inclusive love and charity for his fellow men. That one whose education does not include possession of the sweet and tender virtues of the heart, is possessed only of that knowledge that "wisdom of man which is foolishness with God."
"What is most worth knowing in Masonry is never very openly taught. The symbols are displayed; but they require. It is by hints only and those hast noticeable and apparently important, that the initiate is put upon of the Hidden secret. A word used at random, and as it chain long escapes notice, must attract the attention of living land and gives the clue to the new discoveries."—d.

FREE KINDERGARTENS
Another important measure, which The Tribune has been advocating recently was recommended in this unusual report: The matter of Free Kindergartens should be undertaken by the Board of Education, so that children could be put into school as early as four years of age. The main reason given was that the masses of children are so early called out of school into wage earning and for purposes of family support. This is a good reason, but no more important than the reason of pedagogy which is that the child mind is ready to begin its work of systematic evolution and education at three years. If a child's training is neglectful until he becomes six or seven years of age, and he is then thrown into the schools, he presents a discouraging and almost impossible problem of discipline and regulation.
Some interested ladies of our community, acting under the Urban League, have organized a Free Kindergarten Association and are raising funds for opening a free kindergarten in Yamacraw, at an early date. Several of the colored congregations are already operating kindergartens. Any student of public education must wonder that kindergartens are not already established as part of the regular system of public instruction. They are so essential, so necessary, so vital, in child development.
We need a Negro High School, it is true, and need it sorely, but above all, we need every convenience, every comfort and every aid for the most effective training of children in the fundamentals and essential subjects of elementary work.
The Negro Press, the country over, has resounded and echoed its unqualified endorsement of the selection of Emmett J. Scott, as "the man of the hour" in the position to which the government has called him. This country-wide satisfaction in Mr. Scott's selection, lies in the great confidence which his life has engendered in the people, that in a critical moment he will not quail, quibble or falter in his duty and devotion to the interests of the race.
What greater compliment could be paid a man? What higher tribute has a people given to its representative or its hero? What loftier estimate of character and manhood qualities or what more sacred trust has ever been reposed in a man by his people?
Mr. Scott occupies a singularly interesting and significant position, as any student of affairs may see. The great mantle of responsibility for the interests of Negroes in the great National Army, may, perhaps lie within his keeping. So much and so great things may depend upon his word, his power, his courage, his devotion to a cause. The whole race is pulling for Mr. Scott and no one doubts his prowess, and his unswerving purpose in the cause of that freedom for which Negro men are fighting, and have been for fifty years.
The Secretary of War has shown him-elf a man of pre-eminent vision as well as possessing a high sense of justice and democracy, and we do not doubt that through him, Mr. Scott will be accorded every courtesy and
consideration to which his lofty position entitles him.
The Negro-public is waiting patiently, thinking and wondering what may be the outcome. We are not quite sure what stand the administration may take as regards Negro soldiers, Negro officers or the Negroes outside the Army's ranks, but we do not fear the fitness and loyalty of Emmett J. Scott.
IS IT WORTHY?
Scores of appeals are being made daily to the churches, civic organizations, clubs and widely to the citizens of this community, for subscriptions, collections and donations to various movements and causes. In most cases, because of their natural charity and because they fear they will deny a worthy cause, those appealed to go down into their treasuries or into their pockets and "give as they are able," without question or hesitancy. This custom on the part of the public is very wrong, if not criminal, for, it increases the begging misanence, encourages and invites a species of theft and aggravates pauperization.
Now we should not treat these calls for aid lightly, and thus be guilty ourselves of the sin which our negligence and indifference may make us heir to and responsible for; these sins may be greater than the sin of selfishness. We should take the time to inquire and find out, when we do not know the merit of these promiscuous appeals for help.
Investigation has disclosed that a great deal of this begging and soliciting is going on under cover, as it were, and on behalf of so-called charities that do not exist.
We have just heard that a great many solicitors are making a private canvas into the white homes of the city for contributions to support a sort of home for girls, which home in reality is being run for commercial purposes, purely and simply. It is reported that a tuition of five dollars per month was charged for the first child committed, and that although the "home" is over a year old only two or three children have been within it
If there is even some question as to whether these were strictly eligible within the original intention of the place. Great sums of money are losing collected regularly by agents for these places and no accounting. no summarization and no "statements of condition" are ever made public. Silent investigation is now being made, of one of these so-called "homes."
Is it worthy? This question should be asked and proved by every prospective donor. Our people are just able to support our deserving cases. We have no money to throw, as it were, into the sea. The boards of churches and other organizations should investigate the basis of the appeals for aid which they receive; should take their time to be sure the causes are worthy—and aid them or refuse to do so, according to their findings. We would then have money to support our worthy causes.
Be careful that you do not deny the appeals of worthy enterprises. Contribute liberally and unstintedly to them. Above all, be sure that the causes are worthy to the end that what you are able to give may find the proper deserving cause.
THE GRAND JURY AND SCHOOLS
The most recent Grand Jury report has been characterized "the most remarkable ever submitted", for the breadth of its scope, the care and completeness with which it studied its problems and did its duties, and for the frankness and justness of its findings and recommendations.
Discussing the city and county school conditions, among other things, the report says: "Some of the buildings that are used for school purposes in the county were never intended for this purpose; for instance—for some of the colored schools, old dilapidated buildings that were used as churches have been repaired by local church members, with the idea of teaching school this coming winter. These repairs were made without any expense to the county, but it is a great pity the county must avail itself of such outside help, and have children over which the Board of Education, is responsible, taught in such buildings, as the buildings are not worthy the name of school houses."
Again, "We especially wish to condemn the school on West Broad street known as West Broad Street school. This building is used to teach colored children, but it is a part of the public school system of the county, and the building is a disgrace to any modern community. We do not think it necessary to go into details as to what this building lacks for comfort, and we might say necessities, but it is a pity that many of our taxpayers and citizens cannot and do not visit this building to see for themselves one link in the chain of the public school buildings of our county. It is thoroughly unsanitary and wretchedly

o lighted, and is totally unfit for the 'use to which it is put."
The report does not fail to commend the services of Superintendent Gibson for the splendid improvements in the system which he has wrought, in one year, and it calls on the Board to facilitate his work by providing funds for carrying on the work of modern-J. Izing our school system.
NOTICE TO ALL MADAM
C. J. WALKER'S AGEN
There will be a call meeting for Mme. C. J. Walker's agents at H. G. Young's Hair Dressing P. 461 West Broad street on next day, Oct. 23, at 4 o'clock. Every is urged to be present. Busine
Regularly, for the past few months, The Tribune has been calling attention to these conspicuous defects and needs in the provision for Negro education. We were interested in the petition to restore the seventh and eighth grades to the three schools from which they were taken. We have only recently published an article in which we took the same position on domestic science instruction which the Grand Jury has just taken, namely, that these courses should be optional, not because they are not valuable, because they are; but because they should not be allowed to interfere to any degree with the child's application to fundamental elementary school work. All of us know, that as these extra courses are introduced and conducted they do "break" into the continuity, the regularity, the seriousness and hence also, the effectiveness of the fundamental study and acquisition.
"A HIGH JOURNALISM
The Tribune quite agrees with The New York Age in its editorial under the above headline. These are not the days of yellow journalism. This class of publications appeal mainly to shallow and light thinkers who are seeking for that which is sensational and salacious. These sensational journals do more to warp the minds of our young people than any other agency. Thoughtful parents should keep them out of reach of their children. The Age truthfully says:
Among the findings to which human nature is prone is the tendency to magnify and make the most of things of evil report, while often ignoring and counting of naught the things that go to make the world better. This tenency is illustrated by the vogue that has been attained in the field of what is known as "yellow journalism." The popular news sheet gaining the largest circulation is often the one that gives the greatest space to crimes and scandals with the fullest detail that can be given without falling under the band of the law.
A regettable heatue of our race journals, or a limited number at least, is the adoption of the style of the yellow journal as a means to popularity. Shootings, murders, and divorce suits are featured on the front page as the chief happenings among the race, and get the editorial writers wax indignant when only the criminal side of race news is given in the daily papers. The inconsistency of this procedure does not seem to strike the publishers of these papers and in their hunt for sensations, they are apt to print more than facts, and those highly colored, in order to give their readers a full measure of horrors.
The Age has always aimed in its news columns to feature those things that set forth the constructive achievements of the race eschewing more froth and sensation. Crimes have at times to be recorded, as a matter of news, both as a warning and as a deterrent factor. But the setting forth of unsavory details of crimes or scandals has been a feature to be avoided. We believe that the journals of the race have a greater responsibility than the ordinary newspaper, in that they have to set forth to the public the best side of the progress the race is making, as well as to indicate the ideals toward which it is striving.
OLD PRICES STAND
Elsewhere in this paper you will find an unusually interesting "ad" by the Metropolitan Cigar Store, of which W. H. Tarver, Jr., is the proprietor, and when seen by a representative of this paper gave the following interview: "It has always been my fixed policy to sell my merchandise at as small a profit as possible, in other words, quick sales and small profits, intending, of course, to reach out for the volume of business. Thereby making a great many friends, which constitutes the good-will of any business and is undoubtedly the most valuable asset of any business.
"For instance," he said, "we are selling milk at 15g a qt. while others are asking 16c and 18c. We make a smaller margin, but by selling twice as much we make more in the end. We are constantly looking out for the interest of our customers. And as a result we have close prices on everything we sell".
"If everyone takes advantage of joining our "Thrift Club" they will find that it will mean a considerable saving to them."
All that is necessary to become a member of this club is to cut out the coupon in this paper and present it to us properly filled out."
CARD OF TRANKS
The Misses Hendrickson and Franklin wish to thank their many friends for the kindnesses shown them, and words of sympathy extended during the illness and death of their mother, and for the many floral offerings.
There will be a call meeting for all Mme. C. J Walker's agents at Mrs. H. G. Young's Hair Dressing Parlor, 401 West Broad street on next Tuesday, Oct. 23, at 4 o'clock. Every agent is urged to be present. Business of importance.
DEATH
Alphonso P. Clark
Mr. Alphoiso P. Clark, 50 years of age, died Wednesday in Chattanooga, Tenn., from a stroke of paralysis. Mr. Clark was for many years a resident of this city where he was well known as a barber.

It was about a month ago that the body of Mrs. Bessie Clark, wife of the deceased, was brought here from Chattanooga for interment. The deceased is survived by two children, Mr. Oliver A Clark, a lawyer of Chicago, and Miss Bessie Clark.

SUNDAY SCHOOL,
Lesson L—Foveth Quarter; For
Oct. 7, 1917.
THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES.
Golden Text, P3. oxxvi, 6—Commen-
tary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns.
We have been speaking in recent
lessons of some of God's great circles
in connection with the heavenly orbs
of Lis ‘untverse and the great truths of
His, word. Coming to the Psalms, in
which we shall have at least two les-
sons this quarter, we find the same
thing. But in all Scripture the Lord
God of Israel, the Lord Jesus Christ,
4s ever the center, He-is the perfect
{ man of Ps, i in contrast to the wick-
ed one of the same I’salm, but each in/
eludes those who are theirs, Ie is the
one so greatly to be praised in P's. cl.
His kingdom of Ps, il is the same as
that of Ps, cxlix. Those Psalms are
Israel's fivefold response to the five
books of the law, each book corre-
sponding in some measure to each
book of the Pentateuch. fhe ending
of the first four books of Psalms are
xil, Ixxif, Ixxxix, evi, and are easily
noted by the double “Amen” of the
first three and the “Amen, Hallejujah!*
of the fourth. Christ is no doubt in
all the Psalms, us He is in all the
Scriptures, according to His own testl-
mony in Luke xxiv, 27, 44. His.suffer-
ings and Ilis glory are everywhere set
forth, and the sctting up of Hts king-
dom, with Israel as the center, at His
coming in glory to judge and to relgn.
The present age of gathering the
church from all the nations fs a mya-
tery first revealed to Paul, according
to Eph, ili, 1-6; Rom, xvi, 25-27; Col.
4, 26, 27, but everywhere in all the
book there are Leart messages for ev-
ery individual believer, whether Jew
or gentile, David “und Asaph avd
Moses and perhaps others whom. God
inspired 40 write the Psalms saw, 25
did the prophets, the future, on to the
coming of the Kingdom, hy the Holy
Spirit whd spoke to them and through
‘them. They not unly foresaw the near
Dut also the faroif fulfilnients of the
purposes of Geal, the restoration from
Bubylon and the still future restora-
tion from all natious where they ate
still scattered. Both of the Psalms of
our lesson may easily corer both
events and give us many a glad word
for our own hearts. Understanding
that the thankszivine and rejoicing are |
primarily that of Isracl, let us ay be
lierers appropriate all we can. The
natién shall be reborn suddenly and
the iniquity of their Jand remuyed in
one day, when they shall look upon,
their Messtah nnd receive iim as their |
God ut His coming in glory (Isa. X=v. |
8, 9; Ixvl, 5-18; Zech, iii, 8, 9).
It ts Impossible to have real lasting,
foy apaxt from the forgiveness of sins,
for until that becomes our experience
the wrath of God is still upon us-
(xexv, 13: Jobn iii, 36). It is the,
privileze of every believer to proslaim |
to’ otbers the forgiveness of sins:
through Jesus Christ because of His.
finished work (Acts xiii, 28, 39) and by
Join #2 2, and I Joun ii, 12, any one
can see how to become a child of God
and know their sins forgiven. Ther
can We sing the Nong of Isract after
they shall have receit ed Him and make
even now the avords of Isa, xii our
very own. If we are not made glad by
such assurances as that Ie will never
Tememyes our sins, and that we are
even now delivered from the wrath to
come (Ina, Mili, 25; I Thess. i, 10) it
miust be because we fail to believe
what De says, for Joy and peace come
by believing (fom, xv, 13). If we
are in Christ we cannot pray the words
of Ixss¢, 4-7, althouzh as Christians
we need mercy continually and sal
yation from the world, the flesh and
the devil, while we avait for the sal-
vation fo be revealed at Tis appear-
ing (verse 7; 1 Pet. i, 7, 12). Mis
thoustes to THis people are always
thoughts of peace (i's, xix, 11; Jerg
ssix, 11; John siv, 27). ‘Therefore it is
well to say always, “I will hear what
God the Lord will speak” (ssxv, $).
Lesson verse 9 reminds us that the
Lord 3s nigh unto all who call upon
Ilim fa truth and that salvation in-
clades all kinds of deliverances that we
may need, besides the salvation of our
souls now and our bodies at Ilis com-
ing again (Ps, exlv, 1S; Ixvili, 20, R.
VJ). The suying that “glory may dwell
in our land” we cannot uppropriate,
for it && wholly for Israel, The church,
the believers of this age, have no land,
for we are gathered out of all lands,
strangers here, citizens of heaven, but
we shall own the world after our mar-
riage to the Iamb, just as Ruth came
into possession of the field in which she
had gleaned before her marriage to
Boaz. sHis glory will fill us as individ-
uals now a proportion to our yiclded-
ness to Mim, but after ilis glory shall
