The Savannah Tribune. VOLUME XXXIII N.A.A.C.P.Objects To Forcing Negroes IN LOUISIANA COUNTY TO BUY WAR SAVINGS STAMPS Also Wants to Know What Deposition To be Made of Case of Lt. Tribet and Private Jones New York June 22—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, through its Secretary, John R. Shilladay of New York, makes public a letter sent to Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo directing the Secretary's attention to what the association describes as brow-beating tactics in regard to Negroes adopted by the chairman and other members of the committee in charge of the War Savings campaign in Caddo Parish, La. th principal city of which is Shreveport. The Association sent the Secretary a clipping from the Shreveport Times carrying the heading, "Adopt Force to Get Negro to Buy War Savings Stamps." The association calls attention in its letter to the loyal cooperation of the Negroes of the country in Liberty Loan and War Savings drives and remarks that the method taken by the committee is exactly the wrong way to secure the Negro's cooperation. The letter follows: Hon. William G. McAdoo, Dear Sir: May we direct your attention to the enclosed clipping from the Shreveport Times of June 12 which carries the heading, "Adopt Force to Get Negro to Buy War Savings Stamps." We heave that you will agree that such brow-beating tactics as this as the press story reports are an abuse of the prestige conferred on committee chairmen by their association with such a patriotic interprise as the War Savings Stamp movement. Further, this is exactly the wrong way to do it if the cooperation of the Negroes of Louisiana is desired. One of the speakers is quoted as saying that the employers of Negroes will see to it that the Negro buys because he, the employer, knows the Negro's financial means. Everywhere throughout the country we are receiving reports of the local cooperation of the Negroes of the country in Liberty Loan and War Savings Drive. Last week in Jackson- [Name] 1st Lt James D.

Over 800 Join Laymen's Movement Over 800 Join Laymen's Movement INTERESTING MEETINGS HELD AT AUDITORIUM AND CHURCH Many Inspiring Addresses Delivered During Four Days Session The Savannah convention of colored men of the Laymen's Missionary Movement of the United States and Canada, which opened Sunday afternoon at the Municipal Auditorium, closed Wednesday night with a banquet at the First African Baptist church. This is the first time the laymen's movement has been presented to Savannah but the idea gained ground rapidly after being explained by Mr. Adolphus Lewis of Philadelphia. Pa., who came here to work up the convention. The opening sessions, both afternoon and evening, at the auditorium were very interesting. The speakers for the afternoon were Lawyer W. B. Stubbs, representing Mayor Pierpont in welcoming the convention to the city, the Rev. Neal L. Anderson, pastor of the Independent Presbyterian church, who spoke on "The Challenge of the Present Crisis" and Prof. J. A. Carter of Hendersonville, N. O., who used as a tople "Men and Money Will Win." At night the principal address was by the Rev. Wm. Decker Johnson, of Plains, Ga., on "The Hour calls for Big Men." An especially delightful feature of both sessions was the singing led by chorus of about two hundred voices under Prof. R. W. Gadsden. Mr. Adolphus Lewis presided at the afternoon session and Prof. Cotton took charge of the evening session. On Monday the meeting was held at the First African Baptist church, Franklin square, where it continued until the closing session Wednesday night. There were three sessions daily, morning, afternoon and night. The principal speakers Monday were the Rev. L. I. Christie of the First Baptist church and Mrs. Fannie Lee McCall, who spoke on "Woman's Bit." Rev. John S. Wilder of the South Side Baptist church, Mrs. E. D. Tarswell, the Rev. J. N. Peacock of Epworth M. E. church and the Rev. J. W. Holley of Albany Ga., delivered the main addresses Tuesday. The Rev. J. Durham Wing of Christ Episcopal Church spoke Wednesday morning on "The Church With and Without an Outlet." After several conferences that day, relative to church work, the convention came to an end with a fellowship supper followed by a short session, the principal speaker at which was the Rev. Clas. Satchell Morris, of Norfolk, Va., formerly missionary to Africa and pastor of Abysinia Baptist Church, New York. The convention has awaken a wider interest among the men of the city in church work. Over 800 enrolled as members and hundreds of others attended the sessions. JACOB J. SIMMONS AWARDED $25 PRIZE Tuskegee Inst. Ala.—Jacob J. Simmons of Haskell, Okla., was awarded the first prize of $25, during the Tuskegee Institute commencement exercises, in the Trinity Church, Boston, Prize Oratorical contest.

In a letter to Dr. Moton, principal, Mr. Simmons writes that he has invested the whole twenty-five dollars in War Sarings stamps and Certificates. EVERY LOAFFER PUT TO WORK RELEASES A MAN WHO MAY HELP ON A FARM Work or fight! The Government makes that mandatory upon every man within the draft age. Self-respect makes it mandatory upon every man of every age. If perchance, there are any idlers and loafers continuing to lead lives of uselessness in your town despite war needs for man power, you can do a great deal to cause them to change their course. You can make a complaint to the sheriff or chief of police or any officer, charging them with vagrancy. If the vagrancy laws are not being strictly and unrelentingly enforced in your community, yours is one of the very few places in the United States where those laws are not being enforced. You can help to see that they are enforced. You can see that loafers in your section get a job or go to jail. Every loafer put to work releases a man who may help on the farm. Farmers need hands. Soldiers must have food. Farmers can't produce food unless they have help. The loafer is aliding the enemy whether he means to do so or not. The man so dead of spirit as not to realize his patriotic obligation must be forced to see it. Giro the loafers of your town a straight-from-the-shoulder understanding of their alternatives. This is no time for wording or baby talk. Make him go to work or go to jail. MARTIN→JOHNSON Miss Rosa E. Martin and Mr. Oswald H. Johnson of Charleston, R. C. were quietly married Sunday afternoon at 5 o'clock at the parsonage of St. Augustine's Church by Father Brown. The bride's only attendant was Miss Irene N. Gadou and the best man was Thaddeus G. Frazier. Mr. and Mrs. Johnson will make their home in Saxonah. Have Your Baby Weighed Tuesday Have Your Baby Weighed Tuesday 5 PLACES DESIGNATED WHERE THEY MAY BE CARRIED City Federation of Colored Women's Clubs to Conduct Weighing In order that the government may get a comprehensive idea as to the health of the babies of the country, the government has issued a request that all babies up to and under four years of age be weighed and measured on Tuesday, July 2nd. The work here will be in charge of the City Federation of Negro Women's Clubs. The following request has been issued by the Federation and gives full information as to where parents may carry their children Tuesday to be weighed. "Recognizing the showing that Germany has been able to make through her care and protection of babies, the United States has passed a war measure in regard to the babies of the country and on Tuesday July 7, 2 all the children of the states, up to 4 years of age, are requested to be weighed and measured to ascertain whether they are up to the standard or not. Directions will be given by competent physicians and graduate nurses as to the health, food and general care of babies. Well babies as well as sickly ones are wanted, else the reputation of Savannah's Negroes will be damaged. All children up to four years of age must be brought. "To suit the convenience of the people so that there might be no legitimate excuse, the city's Federation of Negro Women's Clubs, the organization which has this movement in charge, has arranged five depots as follow: West Broad street school, in charge of Mrs. Violet Goodall, chairman; Miss Madeline Shivery, secretary; three physicians, two nurses and a committee of women under Mrs. Geo. S. Williams, Miss McDowell and Mrs. Morgan.

The nurses will be seen to by Mrs. Lizzie Curr Davis, president of organized nurses. Let each of us take it upon himself to see that at least one mother brings her child or children to the depot. Let us save our babies as well as other people. Rebecca Styles Taylor Pres, City Federation, Negro Women's Clubs Negro Soldiers Not Being Sacrificed GEN. PERSHING SAYS THEY ARE ANXIOUS FOR WORK ' Washington, D. C., June 22nd, Form al denial of the reports circulated in this country presumably by German agents, that Negro soldiers with the American expeditionary forces are being given more dangerous work than the white troops was cabled to the War Department yesterday by Gen. Pershing. The message said the Negroes were in high spirits and that their only complaint was that they were not given more active service. Gen. Pershing said he could not "commend too highly the spirit shown among the colored combat troops, who exhibit fine capacity for quick training and eagerness for the most dangerous work." The general's cabbage which was in reply to one on inquiry sent by Secretary Baker, said: "The stories, probably invented by German agents, that colored soldiers in France are always placed in most dangerous positions and sacrificed to save white soldiers, that when wounded they are left on the ground to die without medical attention, are absolutely false. The following are the losses as reported up to June 18th. In the four colored combatant regiments now in France: The 330th infantry—Died of wounds, 3; died of disease, 8; severely wounded, 2. The 370th infantry—Died of wounds, none; died of disease, 3; severely wounded, none. The 371st infantry—Died of wounds, none; died of disease, 8; severely wounded, none. The 372nd, infantry—Died of wounds, none; died of disease, 3; severely wounded, none. These figures show conclusively that the Negro troops have not thus far occupied positions 1 Serunt, Meldrum Tucker, son of Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Tucker of 210 Park avenue, east.

Colored and White Americans to Join In Big Demonstration Next Thursday, July 4th, will witness one of Savannah's biggest demonstrations. A massive parade will be held to form on Bay street and marching to the park extension where two stands will be erected for speakers. The Mayor has appointed a committee of colored citizens with Sol C. Johnson, chairman; J. G. Lemon, E. H. Burke, L. B. Thompson, J. T. Presston, E. W. Sherman, Revs. T, J. Goodall, R. V. Branch, H. W. Wrenn and A. B. Singfield, the latter being secretary. This committee meets this afternoon at 6 o'clock to perfect organization for the parade. The purpose is to have every male organization in the city in line and it is the duty of the pre-iding officers of these institutions to show their patriotism by having them out on this occasion. They are asked to meet on Bay street, not later than 5:30 o'clock on the day. The exact location will be announced in the daily papers. NEGRO WOUNDED TWICE FIGHTING AT FRONT Macon, Ga., June 27—Wearing two gold service stripes, Sergt. Charles H. Salter, Negro soldier, wounded twice near the front lines in France, has returned home. He is to be discharged. Salter was wounded in an air raid, his leg having been broken in two places. He prizes very highly the gold stripes, signifying he was wounded twice in action. On account of the censorship regulations, he was reluctant to discuss conditions abroad. He said, however, Negroes of America had the wrong impression about Negro troops not being fed and given good sleeping quarters, but instead he said their treatment was excellent.

NUMBER 43 Urban League Help Increase Production Urban League Help Increase Production SECRETARY JONES VISITS MANY LARGE PLANTS League Doing Best to Bring Negro Labor to Highest Efficiency in Production During War New York City—The National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes, headquarters at 200 5th Avenue, is now in a campaign to help the government in the production of those goods that are essential in the prosecution of the war. Incidentally, it is the hope of the League that out of the effort larger industrial opportunities for the Negro will follow. Adjustment of Negro labor in industrial centers so as to increase the output of factories, improve the efficiency of Negro labor and reduce friction between the races—this is the contribution of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes in the war emergency. The league is aiding the sale of War Savings Stamps and encouraging Negroes to join thrift societies. On Tuesday of last week, Eugene Kinckle Jones, executive secretary of the league at the special invitation of the officials of the American Brass Company, addressed nearly 4,000 of its employees, white and colored, at Flag Day Exercises, held at the Buffalo branch of the company. The American Brass Company has seven branches at which it is making shell casings under government contracts. During the month of May, its production fell far short of its expectations and Mr. Jones was caught by the management of the company to advise with them on methods to be used to get more regularity in attendance and efficiency in the men. Mr. Jones urged the men to be more prompt and regular in attendance, and more guarded as to their health and moral life, more efficient in their labor and more friendly toward their fellow-workmen. Before the Flag Day exercises there was a parade, of the workmen, headed by two bands and led by the officials of the company and speakers. On his return to New York, Mr. Jones was summoned by telegram Jenkins, Ky., where on Saturday last, he began a tour of the coal fields operated by the Consolidation Coal Com- Continued on page eight A SAVANNAHIAN IN FRANCE Private George Witsch, son of Mrs. Florida Witsch, 517 Park avenue, W.

These men with about three hundred more from various southern points, were members of a slavecrow regiment which was doing service in France. They enlisted in little over a year ago in the service of the army and when their twelve months expired were discharged. They will appear at the services tomorrow night in uniform. A new picture gallery, known as the Delong Studio, has been opened at the northwest corner of West Broad and Huntingdon streets, by the well known clairvoyant whose name the gallery takes. The studio is very attractively furnished and is prepared to give the best of picture work, from the popular post card photo to the most expensive pictures made. The management will gladly show the new studio to all who care to inspect it. The Johnson-Fisher Stock Company will be the new attraction at the Pekin theatre next week. It comes from Jack-onville, Fln., where it has been playing to packed houses. There are fifteen people in the company, several of whom are performers of the first rank. The New York Follies leaves NEW FASHIONS THAT ARE SPAGHED BY SUMMER Collarless Effects Are Very Popular New York, June 14—There are many little developments of the summer fashions that are absolutely fascinating. What could be more adorable than the wide sun' hats made of straw and taffeta interwoven, with perhaps a knitting bag to match? Then, too, the organdle hats with their high crowns of taffeta or satin and wee silken roses in pastel shades are absolutely bewitching worn with the fluffy frock of ordandle or voile. One hat of beige colored organdle had a knife pleated ruffle on the edge of the brim, and a McCALL The Collarless Dress in Printed Voile narrow grosgrain ribbon of navy blue around the crown ending in a saucy fly-away bow. Turbans with flat silken flowers veiled in maline make splendid street hats, and here and there one sees a hat made entirely of velvet or ribbon to remind us that cool days come after hot ones! White shoes, too, are playing their parts. There are the low heeled sports shoes with insets of tan or brown or blue, to match the costume. There are high heeled slippers of kid, buckskin or canvas suitable for afternoon and evening wear. And among the new comers are the linen shoes, some very high—as many as fourteen buttons! Of course, white stockings are the most appropriate for white footgear, and they can be of silk, lisle cotton and even wood for sport wear. There are so many of them, these collarless styles. They have been a great feature of the French modes, and really the simplicity of effect gained by the "straight across" neck is really charming. With the extremely simple waist, the skirt that is draped seems the most natural. The illustration shows one of these fascinating costumes. The buttons on the shoulder add a pleasing touch. This is certainly an example of the smartness of the dress without trimming, for not even a sash is worn, though a girdle of soft ribbon could be used if desired. C. VA. FAU The Charm of One-Sided Drapery The skirt is pleated at the high waistline, and is draped on the side. Any of the soft summer materials could be used for developing this design. Volle is particularly good, and soft silk, too, makes up charmingly. This is no new style feature, and yet it is one of the most effective of the summer modes. Some of the combinations strike us as atrife queer atrst, but they are really interesting, and as a rule there is a very good reason behind the seeming inconsistency. For instance, there are many combinations of Georgette crepe and linen. Georgette crepe washes perfectly and keeps its dainty appearance far longer than either voile or organdle, the two most natural materials to combine with linen. Then, too, silk and satin are often used to trim the pique or other cotton frock. Printed chiffons have THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE SATURDAY JUNE 29, 1918 plque or organdie collars and vests; and the organdie sash with the gingham silk is absolutely hewitching. There are stunning separate sports skirts, too with deep pockets of satin, and a wide satin belt on the cotton skirt. There seems to be no end to the various and interesting combinations which one can make. There is something particularly graceful about the dress with the draped skirt, as I said before, and the model illustrated here has many interesting features. The draped collar repeats the effect of the skirt. There is just the right amount of fulness in the waist, for the back comes forward on the shoulder, forming a yoke which holds the soft pleats. The sleeves are very novel, half loose, half tight, and the skirt has the one-sided drapery that is so modish this season. The line of the vest, too, is a becoming one, and altogether the whole effect is pleasing. A VOICE FORM ATLANTA BY A SAVANNAHIAN The first anniversary of the pastorate of the Rev. Thos. L. Ballou, pastor of the Mt. Olive Baptist of this city, was observed by the members and friends of that congregation on Jure auth. The sermon for this occasion was preached by the Rev. P. James Bryant. It will be remembered by Savannahians and readers of The Tribune that the Rev. Ballou preached several sermons at the Second Baptist church during the time when that congregation was without a pastor, during the early part of 1917. The congregation of Mt. Olive Baptist church, may proudly boast of having a great preacher in the person of their present pastor. Dr. P. James Bryant and his talented wife left Sunday for the National Baptist Sunday school Congress, which convened in the city of Dallas, Texas, At a banquet held at the Y. M. C. A. headquarters Monday evening, several hundred dollars were subscribed, to be added to a fund which is being raised for the purpose of furnishing the hundred thousand dollar Y. M. C. A. building. At the banquet were many citizens of prominence; among them was President Herndon of the Atlanta Mutual Insurance Company, who has already contributed liberally indeed to the building of this Y. M. C. A. office who was again, pressed into service, as chairman of a committee to put the needed seven thousand dollars in the hands of Secretary W. J. Trent, which, to say the least, means that the project will be put over the top. It is indeed gratifying to note that so busy a man as Capt. A. F. Herndon is willing to give a portion of his valuable time, gratis, that the young men of Atlanta may have a decent Y. M. C. A. building complete. Many of the churches and other charitably disposed organizations as well as individuals, have agreed to furnish one room in this magnificent Negro Y. M. C. A. building. Dr. C. T. Walker of the Tabernacle Baptist church, of Augusta, together with Frank L. Gillespie, agency supervisor of the Public Life Insurance Co., of Chicago, Ill and our friend Georgia's big industrial insurance debit builder, Sol. W. Walker of this city, were in to see "ye scribe" a few days since, and tried to make him thlpk that he had done something out of the originary. Well, its just like Sol. Walker to try to make a fellow feel good. "On Tuesday evening of the past week President A. F. Herndon, together with "ye Scribe" was invited to be present at and to partake of a sumptuous banquet in honor of General Manager W. S. Hornsby and Secretary-Treasurer Thos. J. Walker of the Pilgrim Life and Health Insurance Company, at the local office of the above named company, which was a splendid affair in every respect. The several insurance companies, like other big concerns operated by brains, men and money of the race, have more than furnished their quota of man-power and money to further prosecute this great world war. For example, there is one insurance company with headquarters in the city of Atlanta which has bought forty-five thousand dollars worth of Liberty Bonds, in the past six months. Added to which fact, this same concern has furnished seven splendid young men, who will tare Kaiser Bill into doll rags, if they can run fast enough to catch the old heathen. Every employee of this concern has spent and is still spending a portion of their earnings to contribute their bit to the winning of the war. President L. E. Williams of the Wage Earners Savings bank, Savannah was in to see "Ye Scribe" on June 15th and expressed himself as being very highly pleased at what he saw in and around Marthasville.

Letter Describes Battle in which Two Soldiers Beat Off Germans Colonel William Hayward's own story of the bravery of Private Henry Johnson, 360th Infantry, which brought him the French War Cross, is contained in a letter which the colonel has written to Private Johnson's wife, Mrs. Edna Johnson, 23 Munroe street, Albany, N. Y., inwhich he cites graphically the instances of coolness and fighting ability of Private Jonson against great odds. Johnson was wounded in a trench raid which he and another comrade effectively stopped, and in addition to the War Cross, fifty frances, which General Gourand of the French forces gave Colonel Heyward for the use of the family of the first man in his regiment to be wounded under heroic circumstances, has been sent to Mrs. Johnson. "Your husband, Private Henry Johnson, is in my regiment, 369th United States Infantry, formerly Fifteenth New York Infantry. He has been at all times a good soldier and a good boy of fine morale, and upright character. To these admirate traits he has lately added the most convincing numbers of fine courage and fighting ability. I regret to say at the moment that he is in the hospital, seriously but not dangerously wounded, the wounds having been received under such circumstances that everyone of us in the regiment would be pleased and proud to trade places with him. It was as follows: "We had learned some time ago from captured German prisoners that the Germans had learned of the regiment of black Americans in this section; and the German officers had told their men how easy to combat and capture them it would be. So this raiding party came over and on the contrary Henry Johnson and Nesleham Roberts were very much awake and alert and attending strictly to their duties. At the beginning of the attack the Germans fired a volley of bullets and grenades and both of the boys were wounded, your husband three times and Roberts twice, then the Germans rushed the post expecting to make an easy capture. In spite of their wounds the boys waited cooly and courageously and when the Germans were within striking distance opened fire, your husband with his rifle and Private Roberts from his helpless position on the ground with hand grenades. But the German raiding party came on in spite of their wounded and in a few seconds our boys were at grips with the terrible foe in a desperate hand to hand encounter in which the enemy outnumbered them ten to one. "The boys inflicted great loss on the enemy but Roberts was overpowered and about to be carried away when your husband who had used up all of the cartridges in the magazine of his rifle and had knocked one German down with the butt end of it, drew his holo from his belt. A holo is a short heavy weapon carried by the American soldier, with the edge of a razor, the weight of a clever and the point of a butcher knife. He rushed to the rescue of his former comrade and fighting desperately, opened with his holo the head of the German who was throttling Roberts and turned to the Boche who had Roberts by the feet, plunging the holo in the German's bowels. This one was the leader of the German party and on receiving what must have been this mortal wound exclaimed in American English without any trace of accent, "Oh the son of a _____ got me," thus proving that he was undoubtedly one of the so-called German-Americans who came to our country, not to become a good citizen of it but to partake of its plenty and bounty and then return to fight for the Kalser and help enslave the world. He was doubtless selected as a leader of the party to speak English and perhaps fool my soldiers, calling to them in English not to fire that it was a friend. "Henry laid about him right and left with his heavy knife, and Roberts released from the grasp of the scoundrels began again to throw hand grenades and exploded them in their midst, and the Germans, doubtless thinking it was a host instead of two brave colored boys fighting like tigers at bay, picked up their dead and wounded and slunk away, leaving shot riddled clothing and leaving a trail of blood which we followed at dawn near to their lines. We feel certain that one of the enemy was killed by fire, two by your husband's bolo, one by grenades thrown by Private Roberts and several others grievously wounded. So it was in this way the Germans found the black Americans. Both boys have received a citation of the French general commanding the splendid French division in which my regiment is now serving and will receive the Crox de Guerre (Cross of War). The citation translated is as follows: "Some time ago the great General Gourand placed in my hands the sum of 100 francs to be sent to the family of the first one of the soldiers wounded in a fight with the enemy under heroic circumstances. Inasmuch as those boys were wounded simultaneously, and both displayed great heroism, I think it but fair to send to each one-half of this sum. one-half of this sum—N. Y. Amsterdam dam News.

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.

We can not, we do not believe that this is true, for Masonry has stood in all its past, and is standing today, for many principles of priceless value to humanity, that are not related to charity. She stands in a most unequivocal way for the absolute quality of men. She has stood through all her age-long existence, for the right and duty of every man to seek and to use that light, and that knowledge, that makes for a larger and fuller life. She stands for the right and duty of men as individuals, against the encroachment of society upon its liberties, and against the dominance of wealth. She stands for civic justice and social righteousness. For freedom of thought for liberty or faith. She stands for the sacredness of the home, for the brotherhood of man. Charity is important, perhaps it's most important, but I say to you brethren, that if all Masons lived out of the Lodge as they do in the Lodge, if all Masons practised in their daily lives, out in the highways, and age down in the byways of life, the beautiful lessons that they teach over the altars of Masonry then this great Order would instantly become such an evangel in this old earth, that charity would scarcely be necessary.—Selected. Principles or Expediency Is there not just a possibility that Masonry is inclining in the direction of prevailing circumstances and expediency in may matters that are of only temporary existence, rather than principles? Are we as a Craft, standing firm on its bed-rock or as craftsmen taking that high moral and patriotic stand on the question of the day that our prestige and influence give opportunity for, or are we yielding too much to fanaticism and unpatriotic partisiotic partnership? Is the fact that we abjure discussion on politics and religion to be taken that we must not and cannot take a stand for right against wrong, even if the question is not popular with what is termed public sentiment or expediency? Where the craft does not lead us as a body of men we have the privilege of individual volition. In all the matters already referred to every Mason has full liberty. If he is guided by the principles of the Craft he cannot err Sore Muscles Muscular soreness and stiff or swollen joints, whether due to excessive straining, a long-standing inflammatory affection, gout, rheumatism or exposure to dampness, are quickly benefited by a single application of ANDOLIN The Penetrative Anodyne Cream Andolin reduces swelling, allays pain and makes the muscles and joints supple.

Nothing "just-as good" for they are founded upon the spiritual virtues. Masonry is the guide, not the dictator; a guide must first be inwardly conscious that he is in harmony with such a guide and that each is by the other understood—Orphans Friend. Worthy A New York Mason went to prison a few weeks ago. He had plenty of money and plenty of assurance, and thought he had plenty of friends. But all these were of no avail when he was convicted of violating the law. He had to pay the penalty. He expressed surprise that his Masonic brethren did not rally to his support when he got into "trouble." He thought that they were bund to "stand by him" in his difficulties, and assist him to defeat justice, if necessary. This man (he is no longer a Mason) evidently did not understand the limitations of the Masonic obligation. He did not realize that the duty to succor and support a brother is restricted to those who are worthy. A worthy brother is entitled to every legitimate effort that can be put forth in his behalf. One who is unworthy, who violates his vows by committing crimes against society, has no claim upon the brotherhood. By his own act he has renounced it. Cases sometimes occur where brothers err through weakness and ignorance rather than vile intention. Such brethren may well receive our charitable judgment, and such assistance as we can render toward rectifying their errors and giving them a fresh start in the world. The good Mason will not be an inexortable judge. But when a bad man obtains admission to the Masonic fraternity, and seeks to use its respectability as a cloak to cover his misdeeds; when an enterprising citizen seeks to use it for commercial purposes, he finds that the brethren will not hesitate to repudiate him. * * * Men are often capable of greater things than they perform. They are sent into the world with bills of credit, and seldom draw to their full extent. —Exchange. --- Cut Out Dispensations The worse blame of a Masonic Lodge is the desire to ask for a dispensation to initiate candidates at reduced price. It cheapens the order and in many instances attracts unworthy candidates. Those who have the best interest of Masonry at heart should refrain from increasing membership by this method. Masonry at Statesboro The Statesboro Masonic Lodge No. 392. Statesborog Ga., held her St. John's day.

Conscious of the call of the nation upon all its citizens and mindful of the extreme peril of the nation, in the great war, the heart of the Negro people, always responsive to the calls of patriotism, has on this occasion shown itself capable of meeting the highest demands of national spirit and national service. Like other citizens, Negroes had responded liberally to the Liberty Loan's, the War Chest, the Red Cross and other war demands. Unlike most people in America, Negro workers have always been on low wages and many have done the same work as others for less pay. Only recently has the Negro wage-carner been able to get his head above water. He has had little or no time to save and accumulate. None of these things daunted him, however, none of these caused him to withhold his hand and purse when the nation called. There has been no reluctance, no excuse making. There has been hearty response and liberal pledging on every hand to meet the canvassers. The spirit and act of these people must inspire, yea, astonish those who have long known the penny, the conditions under which they labored and the general poverty and lack of comfort of the great masses of colored folk. It must cause remorse to those who have had to do with keeping them in want and suffering under long hours, hard work and low wages. The great opportunity which comes with the government's plans for saving and thrift, made easy and extended to all the people alike, and at a time when the laboring man, the common laborer, is having his best day, is not to go by without its beneficent results to the Negro people. The savings and accumulation of all the people in the great campaign, are going to improve the industrial and economic status of the people to such an extent that there cannot possibly be a return to the days of "hand-to-mouth" living which was so common to thousands of American working people in the years that are gone. The processes of war management and, direction tend toward equalization of wage scales and toward the stabilization and uniforming of living conditions. This would have to be when the spirit and unity of the people are to be one and the same in a great cause of war. These things are as they should be and they show the wisdom of those who are directing and guiding things for the "good old ship of state." We are glad that over and above any considerations of selfish, personal or class interests, the Negro people of America are feeling the keen impulses of patriotism and love of country, and are determined to see the ideals and principles of progressive civilization and democracy established in the earth everywhere. This is the meaning of Negro sacrifice: this is the aim of Negro patriotism: this is the thing for which Negro men are fighting—for real democracy and equal opportunity. A TOUCH OF REAL WAR A TOUCH OF REAL WAR The presence in our city of a great number of Negro men in the army uniform, these days, gives us a glimpse of the business of war and brings us just a little nearer "the front". Now and then a Negro army officer comes in our midst in stripes and other military insignia, inspiring the people that the fair field and wider opportunity which should have always been ours is fast becoming a reality. We are proud of our men: proud of their broad shoulders and their stately bearing and comely dress—and we propose to stick by them all the time and in every thing. They are worthy of the beat in us and they shall have it upon every occasion. We are sorry to observe that white enlisted men, in many cases, are so narrow and prejudiced that, rather than salute a superior officer if he be THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE SATURDAY JUNE 29.1918 a Negro, they will repudiate the time-honored custom and requirements of the army of the United States. Their offense is punishable by count-martial and some, of them should be cited for their offenses. This does not take away from the honor of the officers. It rather emphasizes their honor, magnifies the achievement and distinction of these black men, and minimizes the recalcitrant who refuses to salute and honor. WAR SAVINGS DRIVE AT DALE BY NEGROES Dale, S. C., June 15—The colored people of this city celebrated the commencement of their War Savings Stamps drive with a public demonstration, Saturday, June 15. A more intelligent gathering of people for public co-operation has never been known in the history of the place. The storekeepers rendered all possible aid, closing their business during the hours of the parade, and gave their automobiles to aid those who could not walk. The people assembled at the school house, and formed a line, of about half mile long. First, the horsemen, consisting of members of the Grand Army, and members of the various fraternal organizations who were too old to walk. These were headed by Mr. Walter Alston, one of our enterprising and public spirted young men. Next came the buggies with the wives and widows of the veterans of the Grand Army, also those who were too old to ride on horseback. The band preceded a float representing the Statue of Liberty. Little Herbert Cooley represented our navy. After these came the feature of the procession, the Red Cross. This was represented by a company of young ladies, wearing in hold relief on their snowy headaddress and white garments the emblem of the Red Cross. The young ladies are noted Dale students from various schools, to wit: Vorhees, Port Royal, Marthers, Beaufort Public School and our home school. Next came the citizens, representatives of various organizations at Dade, Mr. I. Keyserling kindly leaned his big motor truck. This was crowded with little ones between the ages of five and ten, all dressed in white. With them was the oldest man in this community, Mr. Jacob Cuthbert, whose gray hair made an impressive contrast with the little tots around him. Two white ladies, Mrs. Coney and Mrs. Reeve, hearing of our intention to have ice cream for sale in the interest to the Red Cross, kindly offered to take charge of the sale so as to give the committee more time for the sale of War Stamps. Thus all cooperated in the interest of the cause, Mr. Keyserling's auto with the ladies mentioned, who also wore the Red Cross uniform, and Hon. J. Coney, member of the House of Representatives of the county of Dorchester, and Mr. P. W. Maxwell's auto truck with the committee, and Mr. J. Dais's auto bringing up the rear, concluded the procession. The march proceeded as far as Mr Carmel Baptist church, whose doors were thrown open by its officers. The building filled rapidly. There was hardly standing room, Elder Edwin F. Jackson leading the people in a prayer. The exercises consisted of a song, America, by the entire audience; prayer by the Hon. Coney; song, "Shouting the Battle Cry of Freedom;" by the children; prayer, Elder Jackson; song, "Nobody Knows the Trouble I See, by Miss Leola Clark. After a few remarks by Elder Jackson, the procession returned, escorting Prof. Shanklin, the speaker of the day, who was brought over by a party of white friends. The school house was decorated with flags, kindly loaned by the Rev. Bythewood and others in Beaufort. Here the ladies did a thriving business and were able to turn over $10.00 to the Red Cross. The audience was called to order by the master of ceremonies, who introduced Mr. Coney as the first speaker. He was highly applauded, as he pressed the claim of the Red Cross and of the War Savings Stamps. Among the many things of interest said by the speaker was that when the war is over there will be many, things accorded to the Negro which he is denied today. Prof. Shanklin was next to be introduced and his words met with much applause throughout his address. Our assigned quota was $100.00, but we have gone over the top in our first effort, and we have fourteen days more to work. Of our hard workers, Mr. P, W. Maxwell is thus far in the lead. The committee feels under obligation to a large number of people who stood by us loyally, to all those whose names have been given as well as those of whom no special mention has been made, to our permanent neighbors as well as to some outsiders. The services of some are beyond our thanks. The list would extend too long, if we wanted to do justice to all. We beg, however, to thank the members of the band and the Coosaw Drum Corps as well as Mr. Frank Magwood and Mr. London Cunningham. HARDEEVILLE, S. C.

Five states were represented, namely, Georgia, North and South Carolina, Virginia and Maryland. The public exercises were held at White Rock Baptist Church and were, indeed, sources of much valuable information being imparted to both workers of the company and the public. The spirit of co-operation was very manifest throughout the meetings. The business of the company was shown to have increased wonderfully through the untiring efforts of its efficient officers.

As an agent for this well organized and progressive company, I want to bid the officers God speed, because it is by His will that all earthly things succeed. WAYCROSS, GA., ITEMS Dr. E. W. Verner, as chairman on program and refreshment committee, with his co-workers, and in connection with the Red Cross women surpassed all previous efforts in giving the registrants a send off last Thursday evening at McGraw's auditorium. The literary program was of such as to appeal to the finer feelings of the large and appreciative audience along many lines. Two white representatives of the Thrift Stamp drive were out and made well received remarks. The war song by Miss Lydia E. Washington and Prof. H. H. Thwatt were greatly applauded. The introductory remarks by the master of ceremonies, Dr. E. W. Verner, the introduction of the white speakers by Dr. H. C. Scarlet, city chairman of the W. S. S. committee, the speech of the new superintendent of the Atlanta Mutual Insurance Company, Mr. Martin; the speeches by each of the boys that went to training camp, the presentation of a wrist watch to Registrant G. C. Lester secretary of the Negro Business League by Mr. Carlton W. Galines, also the presentation of a personal token to Mr. Lester by Mr. J. R. Miller, the speech to the boys by President S. D. Cotteroll of the Negro Business League, the patriotic utterances of Dr. G. P. Washington and last but not least, the serving of choice refreshments all contributed to make the affair long to be remembered. The Negro Business League had its regular monthly meeting last Thursday night. Business vital to the welfare of the rice unit city was transacted. To appear before the council on the paving of streets in the Negro district, the appointment of a committee to visit the schools, and also to make an appeal to proper authorities in behalf of raising colored teachers' salaries, the election of an assistant secretary to succeed Mr. Wesley Griffin who took Mr. Lester's place, as regular secretary, the latter being called to the camps, were the most important transactions of this meeting. Mrs. L. B. Butler of Johnson street, who has been to Brunswick a few days has returned and reports a pleasant trip ```markdown ``` Mrs. Cooper, Jefferson who lives on D. street would be glad to know that her friends are glad to see her up again from a severe spell of sickness. At 6 o'clock p. m. Monday, Dr. H. C. Scarlett with a host of W. S. S. workers began his house to house canvas for government loans. From the results of the first evening's work, it seems that the 25th will find Uncle Sam better off by many thousands of dollars. Prof. N. G. Black who has charge of a college at Sparks, Ga., is hero in the city of his permanent residence spending his vacation with family and The historic fourth of July has been chosen to date the organization of the Waycross Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The twenty-five or more who have pledged will meet at Mt. Zlon A. M. B. church at 8:30. The whole cost for one year is one dollar, and every body is invited to join, both men and women. The battles of the race are being fought by this organization as no other association is doing. The members are just as much in the trenches for the cause of democracy as our boys are in the trenches of France. DEATH NOTICE Mrs. Emma Spencer wishes to announce the death of her son, Le Roy Spencer, which occurred Tuesday June 25th. His funeral will take place from the First Tabernacle Baptist church, Sunday afternoon, at 3 o'clock. In Memory RIVERS—In sad but loving memory of Timothy S. R. Rivers, who died on June 28, 1917.

There will be about two hundred in the first quota. These men will be trained along certain industrial lines. There facts with that that the summerschool which will be conducted as usual at the university promises to make the present summer at Wilberforce a lively one. Wilberforce is the only Negro school that has had a military department with a government officer. This fact makes it practically fitting that the university should be designated to perform this particular service for the government. There will be courses in carpentry, blacksmithing, shoe making and automobile repairing for the soldiers. INDUSTRIAL HOME SCHOOL RECEIVES $20,000 Hampton, Va., June 14—Mrs. Henry Lane Schmelz, of Hampton, president of the Industrial Home School of trustees, announces that the Fosdick Commission, in recognition of the school's service to the state, offered the school $20,000 to help take care of "the girls who are a serious menace to war camp communities." provided $20,000 were given by the state legislature. The legislature at its final session appropriated the money for this special and important social welfare work. Mrs. Schmelz said in her recent report to the board of trustees: "During no other period in the history of our school has the work been so encouraging as during the past year. Growth and increased confidence and highest regard mark it in every way. The greater number of girls sent to us last year is only one phase of the growth. Another phase is the ability, the adaptability, the willingness, and the wonderful spirit shown by Mrs. Harris Barrett and her helpers in coping with the situation where we have had more girls than we have had accommodations; when lack of equipment has meant twisting and turning management; when most rigid economy has been necessary; and when each day has been a challenge of strength." Then General Assembly besides appropriating $10,000 a year for a period of two years for the school's general work, passed a generous resolution expressing its appreciation of the work of the Virginia State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs. Mrs. Barrett, superintendent of the Industrial Home School for Colored Girls, reports that the recent closing exercises attracted a number of guests from the community and Richmond, who were much pleased with the progress that the girls had made. Prizes were awarded for the follow- Bible recitation contest; singing contest, best-kept bed room during the entire year. individual girl who had kept the best-made bed during the year; division of girls who had kept the best "Victory" garden during the season. The exercises were held out of doors. PROCLAMATION NUMBER FIVE To the Grand Court Officers, Deputy G. Counsellors and Representatives: Greetings: 1st.

Cut Out the Jumps! Have you "the jumps"—or other manifestations of nervousness? Are you easily confused or startled at unexpected noises or sounds? Do you worry or fret over trivialities? Then look to your nerves. Something is radically wrong with them. Upset nervous conditions usually result from some exhausted or impaired bodily organ, which does not properly give it's allotted service. Go after the offender through that great recuperatory center of the body,--your stomach. Ask your druggist for DR. CHARLES TONIC TABLETS. They are the very best of preparations to soothe and smooth the racked and exhausted nerves of nervous prostration victims. Those who are debilitated; those who suffer from the groaning burden of liver and kidney trouble, will once more turn toward health, by using this splendid formula. The great wreckers of women's delicately balanced nervous systems as exemplified in the special ills peculiar to their sex—will be quickly relieved by DR. CHARLES TONIC TABLETS, which also present the gift of rich red blood to the anaemic. The TONIC will also go far to arrest and vanish dyspepsia and many wasting diseases that lead to consumption. There are no injurious "come backs" to DR. CHARLES TONIC TABLETS—and they will achieve marvellous recuperative results, where other tonics and reconstrictives: such as iron, strychnine, arsenic, cod liver oil, ptc, often fail. Safe and pleasant to take. PRICE 50 CENTS A BOX If your druggists does not carry them, send 50 CENTS and we will send a box by mail. DR. CHARLES FLESH FOOD COMPANY BROOKLYN, N. Y.

OBJECTS TO FORCING NEGROES Continued from page one ville, Fla., the Field Secretary of this association participated in a meeting during which the Third Liberty Loan committee presented an honor flag to the Negroes of the city who subscribed $390,000 during the Liberty Loan campaigns. We have before us a recent issue of the Jackson, Miss., News which states that the Negroes of that city have responded whole-heartedly to the patriotic appeal for the support of the Red Cross and the Liberty Loan. A Macon, Ga., paper reports that the Negroes of Brook County, Ga., subscribed their minimum quota for the Red Cross on the first day of the campaign. Similar testimony comes from all over the country. We do not know what the facts are in the Caddo Parish in Louisiana, but it is probably safe to assume that no Negro has been invited to serve on the committee which is in charge of the War Savings Stamp campaign. The Board of Directors of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People wishes the government War Savings Stamp campaign to be an unqualified success and has voted to make special efforts in the Crisis, its monthly publication, with 78,000 circulation and among its 117 branches, to help the campaign among colored people. The colored people, like other people, will do more by appeal to their loyalty than by threats of personal violence, ever if such threats were justifiable, which they are not. Addresses Letter to Secretary of War The Association also makes public a letter addressed to the Secretary of War in which the Association asks for a ruling on the attitude of the War Department in the case of a colored private, S. P. Jones of St. Louis, who while on his way to Camp Cody, Deming, Mexico, traveling on train and transportation furnished by the government, was ordered out of a Pullman car by the train conductor at Texarkana, on the border between Texas and Arkansas. The Association's letter says in part, "This incident seems to put squarely up to the War Department for decision whether the Department will insist that enlisted men traveling under government orders shall the case of First Lt. Tribbett who on be accorded the kind of service authorized by the government and provided for by the transportation furnished, to wit, service without discrimination in Pullman cars when Pullman service is authorized and provided by the Department." In a statement concerning this case Mr. Shillady, "addressed an inquiry involved the question of whether the government was going to allow its soldiers, because they were colored, to be dekmed Pullman accommodations even though the government had ordered and paid for such accommodations, merely because prejudiced elements in the South were disclined to allow colored people to sit in the same coaches with them. Mr. Shillady referred to the case of First Jent. Tibbet who on March 2, while travelling under similar circumstances upon Pullman transportation furnished by the government was taken from a Pullman coach at Chickasha, Okla., arrested, and fined five dollars and cost, approximately twenty dollars in all, without redress. "The Association at that time," said Mr. Shillady, "addressed an inquiry to the War Department which was acknowledged during Secretary Baker's absence in France, with the explanation that the matter had been referred to the Judge Advocate General of the Army. No further action, so far as the Association knows, has been taken in the matter by the War Department." Following is the Association's letter Aerial view of the campus. concerning the case of Private Jones Hon, Newton D. Baker, Secretary of War The St. Louis Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People adyibes us that on Wednesday June 19, S. J. Jones of St. Louis, colored, who voluntarily enlisted as a private in the United States Army, while traveling on train and Pullman transportation furnished by the government, and on government order to proceed to Camp Cody, Deming, New Mexico, was ordered out of a Pullman car by the train conductor at Texarkana. The train conductor having declined to honor the United States government Pullman transportation, Private Jones left the train at Marshall Texas. This incident seems to put squarely up to the War Department for decision whether the Department will insist that enlisted men traveling under government orders shall be accorded the kind of service authorized by the government and provided for by the transportation furnished, to wot, service without discrimination in Pullman cars when Pullman service is authorized and provided by the Department. The uniform of the United States at such a time as this should protect any citizen from indignity. Can the government of the United States consent to invidious distinctions between her soldiers, all alike, whether white or black, offering themselves in the service of their country? In the name of the 117 active branches of this Association with a present membership of 25,000 and in that of the many more thousands of loyal colored Americans, we ask your sympathetic consideration of the problem presented by the case of Private Jones which is typical of the treatment either accorded or likely to be accorded to hundreds, if not thousands, of his fellow American soldiers. URBAN LEAGUE TO HELP INCREASE PRODUCTION Continued from page one pany with headquarters on Wall street, New York, for the purpose of stabilizing the Negro miners who have become somewhat disturbed over the prohibition wave. Reports have been circulated in Eastern Kentucky from certain points in Alabama that as Kentucky goes dry, Alabama will again become "wet." This rumor which has no foundation is reported to be causing some of the miners to leave their work although the wages they are receiving are exceptionally high and their living conditions good. The league in sending Mr. Jones to Kentucky coal fields is thinking of the embarrassment to the government and to the nation that any reduction in the coal supply will cause at this time. Mr. Jones is making investigations of the treatment accorded the miners by the company and will recommend improvements in housing, recreation and other features as he find them needed. Mass meetings of the miners are being held to stir up their patriotism and to increase their general efficiency as aids to the war program. Welfare workers for the Negro workmen have been furnished, to a powder plant, a shipbuilding corporation, a zinc mining company, steel mills and a chemical plant—all war industries. It will be recalled that the league was instrumental in having the Secretary of Labor, Mr. William B. Wilson, appoint Dr. George E. Haines, of the league staff as Director of Negro Economics to advise the U. S. Dept. of Labor on questions affecting Negro labor, especially in war industries. An appeal for the support of this organization which needs $10,000 to complete its budget has been sent out SAVANNAH TRIBUNE with the request that contributions be sent to A. S. Frissell, treasurer. The league accepts donations of any size. FIRST A. B. CHURCH First A. B. Church, Franklin square, Rev. T. J. Goodall, pastor. The early prayer meeting was led by Dea. D. A. Walford.

Sunday school began at the usual hour, the lesson was demonstrated by the superintendent. The Laymen's Missionary Movement held several sessions in the main auditorium. These meetings were indeed interesting. All in attendance seemed inspired and ready to do their bit. On tomorrow at 11:30 the pastor will preach.

NEGRO SOLDIERS NOT BEING SACRIFICED (Continued from page one) as dangerous as those occupied by white troops and that their physical condition is excellent. "A tour of inspection just completed among the American Negro officers of the training sectio headquarters show the comparatively high degree of training and efficiency among these troops. Their training is identical with that of other American troops serving with the French army, the effort being to lead all American troops gradually to heavy combat duty by a preliminary service in the trenches in quiet sectors. "Colored troops in the trenches have been particularly fortunate as one regiment has has been there a month before any losses were suffered. This was almost unheard of on the western front. "The exploits of two colored infantrymen some weeks ago in repelling a much larger German patrol, killing and wounding several Germans and winning the croix de guerre by their gallantry, has aroused a fine spirit of emulation throughout the colored troops, all of whom are looking forward to more active service. "The only regret expressed by colored troops is that they are not given more dangerous work to do. They are especially amused at the most dangerous positions, and all are desirous of having more active service than has been permitted them thus far. I can not commend too highly the spirit shown among the colored combat troops, who exhibit fine capacity for quick training and eagerness for the most dangerous work." SATURDAY JUNE 29.1918 WYNN—HARVEY NUPTIALS JUYW L Trost Atlanta, Ga—Atlanta society was seen at its best on the evening of June 19th, when the wedding of Miss Ethel Mae Wynn and Prof. Burwell Harvey, took place at the residence of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Wynn at (S Tatnall street. It was said by many who were in attendance that this was one of the most brilliant affairs seen in Atlanta. The gathering was a most interesting one to study from many points of view, composed as it was of the leaders in the varied departments of the community life; social workers of national distinction, presidents of colleges and universities leaders of the public school system, capitalists whose wealth is counted by the tens of thousands, and officers in the army of Uncle Sam. The decorations were tastefully arranged, potted plants and cut flowers prevailing. The color scheme was white and pink. Promptly at nine o'clock as announced, the ceremony began with a solo "Love. Here is My Heart," sung by Miss Mamie Winbish. Then followed the strains of Mendelssohn's Wedding March as the little Misses Edna King, and Ruth Thomas, the flower girls led the way dressed in white organdie with pink ribbon, carrying baskets of pink and white flowers. Next came the attendants, Miss Alys Lyons, daughter of Hon. Judson Lyons, ex-register of the United States Treasury, gowned in pink taffeta and tulle, and Miss' Elizabeth Wynn, the talented sister of the bride, attired in pink satin and chiffon, carrying pink gladiolus. Just as the bride approached leaning on the arm of her father, the pianist, Miss Bessie Landrum, played Lohengrin's beautiful march. The groom entered attended by Prof. Kemper Harrold, dressed in evening attire. The bride was gowned in white satin and Georgette crope, trimmed in fletl lace and pearls. Veil adjusted with pearls and pin, a rhinestone worn by the groom's mother when she was married 26 years ago. The ceremony was selenly performed by Dr. E. R. Carter, pastor of Friendship Baptist church. Many were the congratulatory letters and telegrams that came from a distance. Among them a check from the groom's father for one hundred dollars. One entire room was filled with the gifts that came from the many friends of the young couple, and while many of them were very costly all were selected with a great deal of taste for a home of young housekeepers. The bride is a graduate of Atlanta University, and a teacher in the schools of Atlanta. She comes from one of the best families in the entire south. Her father is one of the substantial citizens of Atlanta, who has been a trusted and honored employee of the Post Office for more than a quarter of a century and her mother is a leading social worker in the Gate City Kindergarten Association. The groom, Prof. Harvey is the son of Dr. and Mrs. B. T. Harvey of Lakewood, N. J. He is a graduate of Colgate University, and while a student won several prizes in athletics, and since coming to Morehouse College decided to win more. They left on the mid-night train for New York and other points in the East, and during the summer Mr. Harvey will be engaged in Urban League work among boys in Harlem, and will return to Morehouse in the fall to take up the workwhich he has been doing here for the past few years. Mrs. Harvey came to Atlanta to attend the wedding of her son. She has been highly pleased with the cordial social attentions shown her.

ACCURACY IN PER-SCRIPTION WORK is a religion with us. We are really fanatics on the subject of accuracy. But so much may depend upon exactness of proportions and quantities taht we feel no care can be too great to insure it. We believe it better to be too care- than not careful enough inthe most minute detail. Sees a ln me
