The Savannah Tribune. VOLUME XXXIII State Federation Negro Women Meets EXCELLENT PROGRAM AT ST. PHILIP CHURCH Resolution, Embracing Various Reforms In State Adopted The State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs closed its annual session at St Phillips church last night. It has been extremely busy for two days, having held three sessions each day. The outline and scope of the work as worked out by its steering committee and presented to the convention embraces child welfare, reform and reclaim work among Negro girls, a movement to have kindergarten systems in connection with the public schools in all the large cities, a campaign for better health, better housing and better schools, improvement of the morals, the ethics and living conditions of the race generally, and the definite task of establishing a home for wayward girls in a convenient section of the state. Many of the speakers from sections of the state are prominent in civic and uplift work in their own communities, and the recitals of their experiences of the problems of the cities made their accounts interesting and informing to others who came for the purpose of learning the methods which had proven successful to others. Mrs. Talbert of Buffalo, N.Y. national president and a woman of wide experience in the work in which she is engaged, was in the city a few weeks ago. She reported the steady growth of the movement to arouse and to federate colored women everywhere in the United States. It was reported that most of the large cities had strong, active organizations and that many concrete services had been accomplished through united action. It is the idea of the Federation to federate colored women everywhere so that their voices may be heard in the vital matters affecting the Negro people generally and in the Negro woman particularly. Taking prominent part in the various meetings and contributing a large share toward the success of the movement were some of the strong white club women of Savannah. These have always been interested in improving conditions in Savannah and they look upon the work in Savannah as providing a rare opportunity for accomplishing some very much needed work among the women and children in Savannah. In the local federation there are more than fifty separate organizations and many more are expected to enlist. Membership in the state organization is only ten cents per year per member, while the fees in the local organization is determined in the constitution governing each local federation. Mrs. Alice Dugged Carey of Atlanta, state president, gave a very interesting account of the work being done all over the state by local federations and of the splendid accomplishment of the Atlanta federation which had secured the establishment of a home for juvenile offenders, aided in the establishment of free kindergartens and done much reclaim work among working girls and orphans. Aside from the work of reform and relief the work includes a campaign of education to improve the standard of Negro womanhood, intellectually, industrially, spiritually and politically in Georgia. The officers were elected last night for the ensuing year. The program as planned for the meeting will be found on page 8. MR. MEYERS GIVEN SEND OFF Mr. J. O. Meyers, a member of the letter carrier's force left Saturday evening for Fort Wayne, Mich., to enter the service there. Just before his departure the letter carriers assembled at the home of Mr. W. G. Williams, 624 W. Waldburg street and gave him a hearty good bye. The talks were led by Mr. J. M. Ferrebee. Prof. R. F. Gibson sang "Marselles" after which a choice line of refreshments were enjoyed. The spacious home of Mr. Williams was turned over to the boys for the time and every one thoroughly enjoyed himself. Commencement exercises of the Magnolia High and Industrial school, Valdo-ta. Ga., took place May 27 to June 7. Prof. Cyrus G. Wiley is principal. ELEVEN THOUSAND DOLLARS RAISED IN BALTIMORE Bethel A.

L. Horne, music teacher in the Negro public schools of Savannah for the benefit of the Toussaint L'Overture Branch of the Savannah Chapter, American Red Cross. Each grade in all the schools of this city will be represented in primary, intermediate and junior high divisions. The children will sing the songs taught them by Mrs Horne during the year. These songs they know by notes. They will also sing Negro melodies. Mrs. Horne has given her services to the public this whole year and she should have the presence of the public at this entertainment as an assurance of your approval. Now is the time to show your gratitude. Tickets or adults 25 cents and children 15 cents. You will also hear instrumental solos by Misses Marion Duncan, Helen Moore Wilhelmina Bright, Marion Bryan and Master Milton Wright. Come and encourage your children. Mr. Leroy Humbert will render selections from Negro Composers and writers as follows: Go down Moses, by Harry Burleigh; Eleanor, by Colridge Taylor; Since you went away, words by Paul Lawrence Dunbar; Who Knows, by Rosanond John-on. We shall also hear the melodious voice of Miss Meta Galloway which will help to calm and soothe our troubled breasts. The Negro Red Cross Branch, for which the musical is given, has to meet a monthly rent of $25.00 besides its other expenses which are growing daily. We are lacking of funds with which to buy supplies we need. We have no other source but the public. Last week the branch spent $22.80 for tobacco for the three trains of Negro soldiers passing through this city and felt awfully, bad because we had no money with which to furnish sandwiches and coffee. Our men, especially through these trying times, need encouragement. Will you attend and help the cause? Various Acts Presented Go Big And ..

The price of admission is 15 cents for adults and 10 cents for children, including war tax. SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, SATURDAY JUNE 8, 1918 Wage Earners Saving Bank Goes To The Aid of New York Corporation President L. E. Williams of the Wage Earners Savings Bank of this city, has just returned from a business trip to New York and Philadelphia. Mr. Williams had been called to New York in consultation by the Peyton Apartments Corporation, headed by Brown and Stevens, bankers, of Philadelphia and representing New York apartments properties valued at $2,500,000. Emmett J. Scott, special assistant in the War Department of the United States is secretary-treasurer of the corporation. As a result of the conference, these valuable and beautiful properties, among the finest in New York and certainly the most valuable and handsome controlled by Negroes in the world, are put upon a sound business and financial basis and preserved to the Negro race.

L. Barnes, and Mrs. Geo. S.

This was done through the efforts of Mrs. Geo. S. Williams and it was a service filled with recurrence and carnestness. After the service of prayer the following resolutions were unanimously adopted and a copy forwarded to President Wilson and one to Governor Dorsy: "Whereas, the Negro Womanhood of Georgia has been shocked by the lunching of Mary Turner at Valdosta Sunday May 19, 1918, for an alleged unwise remark in reference to the lynching of her husband; and "Whereas, we the Negro women of the state are aroused by this unwarranted lawlessness and are discouraged and crushed by a spirit of humiliation and dread; and Whereas, we deplore the migratory movement of the Negro from the South; yet we cannot counsel them to remain in the light of these conditions under which we live; and "Whereas, our labor is in these cotton and corn fields and rice swamps, and in this frightful hour of the great world, war, our sons and husbands are giving their lives in defense of the country we all love so dearly; and "Whereas, in every forward movement in our national life the Negro has come to the front and shared in the advance and crimsoned every field of strife from Boston to 'no man's land, for the principles held sacred by every true American; and Whereas, we feel that our lives are unsafe as long as this iniquitous institution exists; "We therefore are asking that you use all the power of your great office to prevent similar occurrences and punish the perpetrators of this foul deed and urge that sure and swift justice be meted out to them." The following reply was received from the President: "The White House Washington May 31, 1918 "My, Dear Madam: "The President directs me to acknowledge the receipt of your telegram of even date, and to say that he is bringing it to the attention of the Attorney General "J. P. Tumulty "Secretary to the President "Mrs. Rebecca Stiles Taylor, Savannah, Ga." These ladies of the Red Cross are to be commended for their timely and layol action. Their effort will be farreaching. MRS. ELNORA ALLISON Mrs. Elnora Hatcher Allison died yesterday after an illness of long duration. Her funeral will take place tomorrow.

The properties combined cover two acres of ground in the heart of the Harlem district. Every Georgian Should Secure Twenty Dollars Worth This is to inform you that the great War Savings Drive is now on; and that you are soon to be called upon by the President of the United States, the Governor of our state, and the Mayors of our cities to pledge on the 28th day of June the number of War Savings Stamps you will purchase this year. This is a very serious matter and deserves your most earnest consideration. In order that we may be prepared to act well our part June 28th, it is absolutely necessary that every church, lodge, school, etc. that shall then be important, be organized into War Savings Societies. Let no one treat this matter lightly, for the well-being of our country, and the welfare of our race, are involved. Let each church organize one or more War Savings Societies in its Sunday school, its Young People's Societies and in the church proper. The number to organize depending upon the number of members belonging to the church Let each fraternal order of whatever description or sex, organize itself into one or more War Savings Societies from ten to twenty members each. That it to say, if the lodge consists of twenty members, organize two War Savings Societies, if forty members, three, and so on. Let these societies elect a president and a secretary, whose names must be sent to headquarters, at 151 Auburn Ave., Atlanta, Ga., where they will be recorded and forwarded to Washington and again recorded as members of the National War Savings Committee of the United States. A charter will be issued by the Washington office to each War Savings Society. This matter is too important to be neglected. Act now and be prepared to make your pledge on June 28th. It is expected that Georgia shall subscribe fifty-seven million dollars, which is an average of twenty dollars for every man, woman and child in the state. Let the Negroes of Georgia rally to the support of the government and subscribe ten million dollars to this magnificent fund. Remember the eyes of the world are upon you and you must not fail.

PAGE TWO ABOUT BATHING SUITS-OTHER SUMMER DELIGHTS Necessities of the Season New York, May 30—This warm weather is making our thoughts run beachward, and as a consequence, bathing sults hold a new fascination for us. This yera the styles in bathing sults seem to have taken a turn for the better. The colors chosen are more subdued and in better taste, the skirts of the sults are longer in fact they are more practical without losing any of their charm. Then, too, the materials are chosen, as a rule, for their appropriateness. Heavy satins and taffetas are used for the "special" suit; mohair and poplin are close seconds, and then the woolen materials are eparingly used, on account of the governments appeal for wool conservation. McCALL The styles are really so sensible, planned for comfort as well. There are high shoes that lace well up the leg, that do away entirely with ever present annoyance of keeping the stockings up; there are bathing suits with some special arrangement at the knees that hold up the stockings; there are any number of new caps and hats that are absolutely waterproof, made to be worn under the more decorative ones; and there are capes to throw about one on the way to or from the beach. The bathing suit illustrated here is made of heavy satin that will not be spoilt by water. There is no necessity for wearing an undergarment with this suit as it is joined under the leg, and blouses over in skirt effect. The cuff is buttoned sngly above the knee, and if stockings are worn, they may be attached to the cuff. The suit buttons on the shoulder. The cap worn with it is extremely simple and good-looking, the trimming, band ties in the back, thus making it fit securely. A belt can be worn with this suit if desired. There are any number of pretty and useful accompaniments to the bathing suit. The knitting bag of rubberized silk or satin is one of the terms the © MCCALL With Pleated Skirt and Simple Waist Summer Girl makes with Patrolotism. Then there are the big beach parasols for those who look on and simply enjoy the breakers from a dry standpoint. Rugs and pillows for sand parties too, may be of this year's colors. Gay, indeed is the kaleidoscopic scene. The bright sweaters and sleeveless overlouses, sports costumes and gingham dresses, vie with the bathing suits themselves for the lion's share of attention. The Color Campaign There is quite a good deal of talk and many suggestions being made just at present for discontinuing the custom of wearing black. Many people urge that it will have a bad effect on the morale of our soldiers in this country and urge that the government ask that it be discontinued for the duration of the war. In personal probah lies, there is very little black being worn—that is, proportionately. At one time, of course, this was on account of the difficulty of obtaining the black dye, but the plea of psychological effect has also been very strong there. There is a new slogan to add to our already long list, "colors will win the war." After all, this is a matter that must be decided by the person, though there are many statistics to show the effect on the individual of various "happy" colors. Frills and Furbelows There are any number of ways of freshening up the last year's dress. A collar and cuff set of this year will do wonders. The tiny ruffles in the sleeves of the foulard or satin dress, the new girdle of brocaded ribbon and the dainty tie do their part in the simplest way. Then, too, the overblouse sleeveless or with sleeves, can be worn with different waist and the same skirt. Parasols and sun-hats belong to the delightful side of life in summer, and there are many new styles in them. Sometimes the wide brimmed hat has a simple bow and ribbon, sometimes it is weighted down with a single rose near the edge of the brim; always it is attractive and becoming, whether it be worn for garden party or War-Garden work. Another extremely good-looking bathing suit is shown in the illustration here. The skirt is pleated and the sleeveless waist with its round neck spells comfort. A grand concert and play was given by Berean School on Tuesday night June 4, at Harris Street hall. The graduating exercises were held on Wednesday night at St. John Church. The program was enjoyed by a crowded house and the participants were heartily applauded. The address to the graduates was made by Rev. N. M. Clarke. Three young ladles received diplomas, they were Elmira Jane Washington, Hattle Elizabeth Turner, Julia Virginia Barnes. Berean school is closing after a successful year's work. The teachers are Mrs. A. E. Maxwell and Mrs. E. R. Dennis. SAVANNAH BOYS MAKING GOOD Dear Sir: In view of the fact that the "home folks" are always anxious to learn of the progress and success of their Savannah boys, while attending the various schools and colleges, in the army and other places, I am writing you in order to inform you of the success of two Savannah boys at Lincoln University and wish that you will allot a small space of your well circulated paper in informing friends and well-wishers of that success. Lamar Perkins, a graduate of the Beach Institute, has finished the college department with honor and has gained the reputation of being an orator, from both the professors and student body. Mr. Perkins won the prize in an oratorical contest which was held in Coatsville, Pa., not very long ago. Mr. Perkins left the university in order to visit his relatives who live on Oak street, Savannah. I am very reluctant to write anything concerning myself for it is said that for one to search out his own glory is not glory. Yet, being urged and constrained by a few friends and my father, I begin to realize that duty transcends modesty. I have had many honors bestowed upon me during the past year, among the more important ones is my election to the captiancy of the base ball team, the executive committee and the management of the university band. Notwithstanding this, I have maintained my scholastic standing in the honor group and won a gold medal in the junior oratorical contest, held during commencement. I don't seem to have lost any of my endurance which I was wont to possess in the Urban League school races, for I won the prize of the half mile race in the athletic carnival which was held during commencement. Yours truly, David M. Waters WRIGHTSVILLE NEWS Messrs. Riley and Louis Halnes of Macon were home Sunday visiting their father and mother. They were entertained with a tea party Monday night by Milss Perry Lee Spann. Miss Madge Haines is back on the job again and her friends are all very glad to see her.

ADDRESS SAVANNAH TRIBUNE On Friday night, May 31st, in answer to a call from the Toussaint L'Ouverture branch, American Red Cross, fifty-two women's organizations sent representatives to Asbury M. E. church and the City's Federation Negro Women's Clubs was organized with the following officers: Mrs. Rebecca Stiles Taylor, president Mrs. M. E. Hurper, vice-president Mrs. A. E. Oorner, vice-president Mrs. T. J. Goodall, vice-president Miss Ophelia Lee, recording secretary Miss Madeline R. Shivery, assistant recording secretary Mrs. Pearl Smith, corresponding secretary Mrs. George S. Williams, treasurer The purpose of the meeting was for temporary organization, but the presence of Mrs. Alice Carey, state president of the Federated Negro Women's Clubs changed the plans, and under her directions a permanent organization was formed. Just last week, the federated Negro women of the state were protesting against the lynching of Mary Turner and Savannah having no federation, the work was done by the Toussaint L'Ouverture branch. The organization took no uncertain ground against this horrible crime and among the protests it made was one to President Woodrow Wilson, who answered, saving that the matter had been placed in the hands of the attorney general. A letter of protest was also sent to Governor Dorsey, who has not answered as yet. Protests were also sent to Mrs. Nellie Peters Black, State President of White Women's Clubs and Mrs. John S. Howkins, city president of white women's clubs of Savannah. More than $9.00 was spent by the Branch in telegrams and stationary. You see the need of federating. Get in line, for the sake of your children and your children's children. 1200 New York Doctors Fighting Poison Gas. 1200 New York Doctors Fighting Poison Gas. Do you know that you folks at home as well as the brave boys "over there" are menaced by "poison gas"—the insidious kind that steals away health and the joy of living, in the perpetually recurring disturbances resulting from a gassy, sour stomach. 1200 New York physicians regularly prescribe JOHN'S DIGESTIVE TABLETS as the most perfect form of relief known for these stomach disorders. The TABLETS are highly beneficial for gastric and intestinal indigestion, heartburn, acid or sour stomach, flatulence and gastric catarrh. They sure do vanish that poison gas which is the basis of most stomach ailments, as well as banish bad breath which usually heralds that gas-filled stomach. Get the TABLETS at your drug store. They insure quick, lasting relief by taking three to six dissolved in a glass of water or chewed before swallowing. Have JOHN'S DIGESTIVE TABLETS handy in the dining room for chronic cases of gastric or intestinal indigestion—as one or two TABLETS should be taken before each meal. L. D.

Crawford of Atlanta, preached the commencement sermon which was one of the best that has been delivered on an occasion of this kind which was expressed by the large audience that haerd him. There were something like a hundred or more of the best white citizens of the town out to the sermon and the large auditorium was crowded to its capacity with colored people also. A profound impression was made upon the hearers and after dismission Dr. Crawford was given an ovation by both white and colored. Prof. J. M. Deas, principal, is one of the best school men in the state. He is doing constructive uplift work and his white friends are the most loyal in the state. Too much cannot be said in praise of Prof. Deas and his corps of teachers. Friday night the graduating address was delivered by Rev. F. R. Sims, D. D. Valdosta, Ga., which was an inspiration and uplift to all who heard him. The spacious city hall auditorium was crowded. The address was one of the most brilliant ever delivered in the city hall.

A Saturday June 8, 1918 French Negro soldiers from Senegal have proved a serious stumbling block to German advances at a certain point on the Western front. Under the new style of fighting, more in the open, these soldiers, much like the American Negro soldiers, are said to be excellent fighters. The spectacular and dramatic open clash of arms and men seems to fire the martial spirit of the soldier to the uttermost, and deeds of valor and bravery and cunning may be looked for in rapid succession, as Negroes participate more and more in the fighting. NEGRO RED CROSS NURSES AND OVER SEAS SERVICE Colored women in Red Cross work all over the United States have acquitted themselves so as to win the generous admiration of all the people. In economy, in industry, in productivity, in conservation and in the contribution of resources of all kinds, thousands of Negro women have won a respect and esteem in Red Cross activities which is almost one of the wonders of the war. But working at home is about all they have had the opportunity to do. So far they have not been used in the field service at home and in the overseas service. So far the directors of this branch of the military service have not publicly considered colored Red Cross workers except in the matter of production alone. It begins to appear that there is even more discrimination in this part of the government service than in any other, and we fail to understand the foolhardiness of our directing agencies considering the extremity of our circumstances and conditions. Appeal is made for greater forces for Red Cross service of all kinds. Why not honor and reward the Negro wing of this service by the recognition which comes with opportunities for field and overseas service? Have conditions got to enforce this recognition and wrest it from the hands of those at the head of things? Our people want the opportunity to engage in all branches of the service of the nation. Our women, like our men, want service at the front. They want the chance to serve the soldier directly and to face with him the dangers of shot and shell. Our women want the chance to risk their lives on the battlefield in the hospital service, like other women. They want the chance to die, if need be, for if they do not participate in this feature of the work they lack just so much of being full-fledged Red Cross workers. The whole staff of nurses of Lincoln Hospital, Brooklyn, has volunteered for overseas service. What will Uncle Sam do about it? SILENT FORCES OF PROVIDENCE Field Secretary James W. Johnson of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, who spoke in Savannah last Tuesday night, gave his hearers much to think seriously about,—much, perhaps, to take action about. In a broad survey of the current movements and problems of the world and their newer manifestations under influence of the world war, Mr. Johnson sought to impress the people that these silent and unseen forces, though unavitable and irresistable, were tending toward a definite goal and in doing so were sweeping along unlindered and unabated by such obstacles as lay in the path of their ultimate purposes. The war, he pointed out, had not been conceived of as pitched and planned and waged to establish any high principle like Democracy, and yet the present-day battle-cry is nothing other. It had also not been anticipated that the great struggle was to involve so many interests and embrace so many peoples as it has. None ever dreamed that the great masses of the submerged classes of all the nations of the earth were to play such a vital hand in all the varied manifestations of the colossal struggle. And yet all this has taken place. It was pointed out that other peoples of the earth, who for ages long have been denied their just and equitable chance in the world, were busy as they should be at undertaking to direct and influence these "blind forces" to the end of bringing a real Democracy in the days of permanent peace. Mr. Johnson urged upon his audience their high duty and grave responsibility in patriotism to the calls of the nation and reviewed the brilliant examples of Negro soldiers and Negro civilians in all the calls of the nation. He urged, however, that leaders of the grace must prepare to ask the nation and the world for equal justice and equal opportunity for the Negro race in America, while thousands of Negro boys in the trenches and thousands of men, women and children at home, are putting every effort of head, heart and hand in establishing these just principles throughout the world. We believe the people throughout our nation are getting a newer vision of their civic duty and civic responsibility; we believe that men, hereafter, are going to give more thought and more action toward setting up and preserving the scales of justice in balance to all men; we believe that much of the wrong, the oppression, the withholding of equity and opportunity is going to be done away in the light and vision of higher ideals that are to come in the wake of war. Humanity is being baptised with fire and blood and death; Faith is being tried in suffering which transcendeth anticipation and any previous conception; civilization is undergoing regeneration and rebuilding; and all the principles and standards which hitherto bound the progressive nations of the world together must be given a newer interpretation. God knows readjustment is necessary in America, when people are so depraved and civilization so grovelling and law and justice so dethrogged, that three thousand white men, women and children, on a Sunday afternoon in Tennessee in the shadow of their churches and, on the threshold of the halls of justice engaged in the gruesome play of heating red-hot irons and punching out the eyes and vitals of a prostrate, dying Negro chained to the stake before their eyes—and when another Negro in Georgia, already shot to shreds and mutilated and dear, is tied to the read of an automobile and is dragged and hurtled over miles of County roads—and when on another Sunday afternoon in Georgia, a defenseless Negro woman, whose husband was lynched only a few hours before, is herself hanged and shot to death, her body mutilated and riddled passing description in its horror. God hasten the day of regeneration and readjustment! Stay it not, we pray! SAVANNAH COLORED WOMEN FEDERATED It would be a very valuable thing if colored women would come to a full realization of their part in the work of the world. Hitherto, our women have been slow to get a just conception of their responsibility for advancing the interests of the people in the countless ways which men cannot. Womankind is specially fitted and endowed to discharge many of the tasks involved in the ensilling of the finer qualities which go to make well-rounded manhood and womanhood. The valuable lessons of clean living, becoming conduct, regularity of habits, industry, thrift and Christianity are reserved to the sphere of good women. Woman is queen and mistress of the home, and out of good homes has come all that is good and great, as also out of bad homes has come all that is defiled and depraved. Woman and home are indissolubly and irrevocably associated, and there is no complete home atmosphere without the influencing association of woman. The general atmosphere outside home life, the state-wide ideals are largely detrimmed by the expressed and asserted influence and opinion of groups of gentle but militant, women. Men perform and behave in their civic and business life to a large extent as a result of the silent, subtle influences of their women folk. The cherished traditions and ideals of all developed peoples have been conceived and fostered by good women presiding in good homes. The Federation of Women's Clubs offers a fine opportunity for woman to discharge the functions of inspira- tion and uplift for which she is so relatives and many friends from other well fitted by virtue and opportunity, places among whom were Mrs. Mary The National Federation, the State Harrell, Mrs. Mary Law and Mrs. M Federation and the City Federation, A. Robertson of this city; Mrs. Rache all have the same purpose and differ Sharp of Waycross! Mr. S. S. Mince only in the fields each is to cover, and son, Mr. Bell and Prof. Hurph o There is no minimizing the wide variety of tasks to which these women have applied themselves and no exaggerating the great need of such united and concerted action for uplift work among the people of Georgia. We shall be glad to see these women following it up, as only women can, a strong schedule of uplift-work for the race along all lines, and we hope that the spirit and enthusiasm which has been so manifest in Savannah this week will not abate. As a race and operating in large groups, we have got to learn the just proportion of things, so as to be able to sensibly and equitably apportion our strength and resources in order to accomplish the most good. This movement, if carried forward vigorously and earnestly, if made to include all women who desire to join in the program of uplift, and if kept free from the unimportant and insignificant detail which so often destroys the good, will be able to accomplish wonders for the race in Georgia and in the nation. IS THERE ANY GAIN? Can the question be properly answered until the end of our journey is reached? At the end of each year we can see whether we have taken a step forward or backward. It was last Sunday at th little Sundayschool on Joachim street in Yamacraw that the teachers and children felt they had at least taken one step forward in the last seven months when James Pollen and Henry Cohen were each presented with a Bible for regular attendance. These boys have been faithful since the first of October and took quite an interest in their lessons. Not only did it seem an inspiration to the recipients but to the others that were present which numbered twenty-six. The Bibles were given by Mrs. Rowland and Miss Aldrich of Beach Institute. Miss Aldrich is a volunteer worker and has been a wonderful assistance to the Sunday school and won for herself the friendship of the larger boys in Yamaecaw. The attendance from January first up to present date numbers five hundred and seventy-two children (one Sunday not included), collection $1.80, number of teachers 9. The 572 children are the neglected children, the children that are not sent to church and Sunday school, but it is with these that one hour and more is spent pleasantly every Sunday. The day is coming and has about come when the children will be the most important beings. For the children of today are the men and women of tomorrow. Let us train them spiritually, morally, and intellectually for the good of mankind and for the salvation of their souls. It is a question to be answered whether our faithful probation officer Mr. Frank Callen will be returned to the neglected boys and girls of Savannah or must they return to the place they were before he started his good work with them. For without a doubt much good was accomplished by him in his short stay. If he can't come back until it is over "over there" then let some other lover of children take up the much needed work. LAST TRIBUTE PAID BAXLEY CITIZEN The funeral of the late S. S. Sellers took place last Sunday from the Baptist church of Baxley. The edifice was crowded, many being unable to secure seats. The high esteem in which the deceased was held was attested not only at this service but by the large concourse of people at the cemetery, many of whom were some of the leading white citizens of Baxley. Expressions of regret were heard on all sides, and each paid glowing tributes to the sterling worth of Mr. Sellers, who was easily the leading man in that section of the state, and one of the wealthiest. He did much to cement the cordial feeling between the races and by his frugality and example, impressed many to become large land owners. The services at the church were conducted by the pastor, Rev. Mr. Patterson, assisted by Rev. Morris. Several officers of the church also paid tribute to his worth to the church and the community. A few remarks were also made by one of the visitors. Sumner Lodge No. 10. of Masons, of which the deceased was one of its oldest members and a past officer, and Adah Chapter No. 3. O. E. S., of which he was first Royal Patron, attended in a body. Each one of these institutions paid the last tribute of respect by conducting the sad rites. The floral designs were many and beautiful, some coming from friends in distant places. All of the immediate members of the family were present along with other relatives and many friends from other places among whom were Mrs. Mary Harrell, Mrs. Mary Law and Mrs. M. A. Robertson of this city; Mrs. Rachel Sharp of Waycross! Mr. S. S. Mincey and son, Mr. Bell and Prof. Hurph of Alley; Mr. T. J. McDew of Hazelhurst and a Tribune representative. The many friends of Mr. J. Chas. Mardenborough will be delighted to learn that he successfully passed the examination for departmental clerk at Washington, D. C. His rating received from U. S. Civil Service Commission assures him of an early appointment. He expects to be inducted into the national army, therefore his appointment is somewhat conditional. However he has the best wishes of his friends. The local branch of the Howard University Alumni Association takes this opportunity to thank most heartily the persons and organizations that lent their support which did so much to make the occasion of the visit of Prof. Kelly Miller to our city such a marked success. Among those to whom we are especially grateful ar the Savannah Tribune, the First African Baptist church, the Savannah Home Association. Mrs. W. E. Tibbs and Miss Ione Monroe.

Their presence at the Union Station attracted a very large crowd. The boys were given cigarettes by the ladies of Toussaint L'Ouverture Red Cross branch, who were informed of the presence of the troops in the city. In all there were about twelve hundred soldiers in the crowd. Just where they were going, where they came from and who they were no one knew, but one thing certain there was, they were a jolly bunch and seemingly well able to care for themselves in any emergency.

BUSINESS LEAGUE BOOSTER NUMBER SIXTEEN Tuskegee Institute, Ala..-Dr, Wash- ington’s Just Sunday afternoon talk to the students was on “Team Work. No oue could appreciate the Jmpor- tance of team work more than he. it was the team work of the trustees, ithe faculty, the students and friends lof Tuskegee Institute which made it ‘the national institution that it is. Team work among the officials and the loyal, progressive business men of the country, made the National Ne- ‘gro Business League one of the most important organizations in the coun- try, and team work in America is help- ing the Allles win the war. . " What the Negro is learning from the war is team work in a new and broad- er way. Our people are working to- gether as never before in ‘Thrift Stamp, Food Conservation, Liberty Bonds and Red Cross campaigns, and the results are in some instarces astonishing. The important thing about team work in the various ‘campaigns is its educationak value, If we can keep that spirit alive after the war, it can be converted into a powerful factor encouraging industrial and economic efficiency, Our business men can harness the spirit which has made this team work possible, and can develop it into a most valiable asset. If we! ‘can get together for the Red Cross now, after the war, we can get behind local. campaigns to boost Negro business en ‘terprises. Such cooperation could pro tice results which would grow in force, in power and momentum. The atonal Negro, Business League has endeavored to fester that spirit among ‘our people during the year of its er ae and it has succeeded to a most gratifying degree.

STREET We hear much these days about colored people not patronizing colored business enterprises— The truth of the matter is that many Colored business men have neither kept pace with the broadening and discriminating tastes of the Colored customer nor with the specialized efforts of their white competitors. "It's a far cry" from sentiment to business. This is the age of specialized selling methods and the Colored merchant must "fall in" or "fall out." The difference between the business which is "mighty fine" and "just so-so" is the difference in merchandising methods. We can help you to put your business into the "mighty fine" class.

RECIPE MAILED FREE A veteran business man, who was almost completely bald and had tried numerous tonics, lotions, shampoos, ete. without benefit, came across, while on a journey, an Indians’ recipe by whick he grew a complete crop of healthy, Muzurlant hair that he now possesses, Others—men and women—have re- ported remarkable hair growth by the same method. Whoever wishes the re- clpe may obtaln it free by writing to John Hart Brittain, BA-222, Station F, New York, N. ¥. Or obtain a bor of the ointment, Kotalko, made acpording to the perfected recipe, at the drug store, ready for use. Indians’ Secret of Hatr Growth In @ vast nomber of cases, when Halt falls out, the roots are not dead, bot remain imbedded in the scalp, alive, like seeds or Dulbs, needing only fertility. ‘Tho usual alkaline shampoos, aleoholized hair tonics, etc. are of no avail in such cases. The Indians’ ointment nourishes the hair and Stimalates th growth. Kotalko feftilizes the acalp and induces hair growth in every ‘tase possible; won- erful results reported, | For men's, women's and children's hair. If you aro’ bald, or losing Bair, or, Bavo dandruff, you should try Kotallo.
