New York June 22—The National
Association fur the Advancement of
Colored People, through its Secretary,
Jobn I. Shillady of New York, makes
Public a leiter sent to Secretary of
the Treasury McAdoo directing the
Secretary's attentjon to what the as-
sociation describes ax brow-beating tac-
tics in regard to Negroes adopted by
the chairman and other members of
the committee in ebarge of the War
Savings campaign in Caddo Parish, 1,
th principal city of which iy Shreve-
port. The Association sent .the Sec-
rétary a clipping from the Shreveport
‘Times carrying the heading, “Adopt
Force to Get Negro to Buy War Sav-
ings Stamps.” The association calls
Attention in its Jeter to the luyal cv-
operation 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 Nero's cu
-opration. ‘The letter follows:
Hou. William G. McAdoo,
Secretary of the Treasury,
‘Washington, D. C.
Dear Sir:
May we direct your attention to the
enclosed clipping from the Shreveport
‘Times of Inne 12 which carries the
‘heading, “Adopt Force to Get Nezro
to Buy War Savings Stamps.” We be
Heve that you will agree that such
‘row-beatinz tactics ‘us this as the
press story reports are an abuse of the
prestize conferred on committee chair-|
men by their association with such @
patriotic interprise as the War Savings
Stamp movement. Further, this is ex-
actly the wrong way to do it if the co-
‘operation of the Negroes of Louisiana
is desired. One of the speakers is
quoted as sayjnz that the employers
of Negroos will see to it that the Nezeo
buys because he, the employer, knows
the Negro’s financial means.
Everywhere throughout the count=y

co-vjeration of the Negroes of the

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. Mr. Williams and several of the brethren of high standing in the Masonic fraternity were en route to the Masonic grand lodge, which is holding its annual session at Athens, Ga. After Auditors Williams, Stevens and Howard had completed auditing the books of Secretary of Endowment W. C. Thomas,

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

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.

Among The Masons
More Fagactac viaa Charity
It has been often said that Masoury
is entitled to a place among the insti-
tutions of men because of its charity,
and that were it uot for its system of
charity, that it would be as an cmpty
shell worn out, worthless.
We can not, we do not believe that
this is true, fur Masonry has stood in
all its past. and Is standing today, for
many principles of priceless value to
humanity, that are not related to cbar-
ity., She stands in a most unequive-
cal way for, the absolute equality of
mep. She has stood through all her
age-long existence, for the rizht and
nty of every man to scek and to use
that lizht, and that knowledge, that
makes for a larger ani fuller Tife. She
stands for the right and duty of men
as individuals, szainst the enereach-
ment of society upon its liberties, and
against the dominance of wealth, She
stands for civie justice and social
righigousness, For freedom of thought,
for liberty of faith, She stands for
the sacredaess of the heme, for’ the
hrotherhood of man.
Charity. is fmportant, perhaps it's
mot important, Iut Tsay to you
brethren, that if all Masons lived ont
of the Lodge as they do in the Ladze.
if all Masons practised in their daily
lives, out in the highways, and axe

fs Jessons that ther teach over the
altars of Masonry then this great Or-
der would instantly become such an
eyangel in this old earth, that charits
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 expedt-
ones in may matters that are of only
tomporary existence, rather than prin-
ciples? 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 oppor-
tunity for. or are we yielding too mach
to fanaticism and unpatriotic partis-
jotie partnership? Is the fact that we

cannot take a stand for right against
wrong, even if the qnestion is not pop-

A New York Mason went to prison a
few weeks ago.
He had plenty of money and plenty
of assurance, and thought he bid
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 espressed surprise that his Ma-
xinic brethren did not rally to his sup-
port 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. +

THE OPPORTUNITY AND THD

Incomplete returns on the . great
War Savings Campaign which eulmi-
hated in National Pledge Day, yester-
€ay, indicate that most noteworthy
and ex{reme sacrifices were made by
colored people. Conscious of the call
of the nation upon all its citizens and
mindful af the extreme peril of the
nation, in the great war. the heart of
the Nezro people, always responsire to
the calis of patriotivm, has on this
occasion shown itself eapahle of mect-
ing the hizhest demands of national
spirit and national service. Like other
citizens, Nesroes had responded liher-
ally to the Liberty Loans the War
Chest, the Read Cross and other war
demands, Unlike most people in Amer-
ies, Nexto workers have always heen
on low wazes and many have done
the same work as others for less pay.
Only recently has the Nezro wage-
earner been able to zet his head ahave
water, He has had little or no tine
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 heen no re

The citizens of Wilberforce, Ohio, where the noted university, which bears the same name is located, are looking forward with great anticipation to the time when the Federal Government will bring its first group of selected men to Wilberforce for training. 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.

Brief addresses were made by a number of visitors.
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.

N. A. A. C. P. 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. The scripture lesson was read by Llc. Robinson after which the pastor preached an able and instructive sermon, subject, "Counting the lost", which was particularly interesting and helpful. 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. Order of services: Prayer meeting 5:30; preaching 11:30; Sunday school 10:30; communion 4:30; B. Y. P. U. 6:30; preaching 8 p. m.
FIRST BRYAN BAPTIST CHURCH
F. B. B. Church, Rev. Daniel Wright, pastor. Early morning prayer meeting was well attended. Bro. Joseph Small, one of our users, was buried at 10 o'clock. Sunday school was well attended. Rev. M. W. White, the missionary for the General State Baptist convention of Georgia, preached a very instructive sermon. At night Rev Wright's subject was 'Daniel delivered with great spiritual power to an immense crowd.' The slogan is the trolley ride July 3rd. Tomorrow morning the children's day exercises will consist of a patriotic program conducted by Mrs. J. C. Woodruff and Miss Anna Maxwell. Quite a number of our members who are serving our country are back from France and will be the guests at our night service. You are welcome.

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
