In some manner the colored men were satisfied an continued their work but fear of race trouble was so grave that as it was rumored, a sea h was made of several of the white men and Negro employees as a prevention against an outbreak. The domineering and bull-pen moth odds of certain white employees from the rural districts, many of these suddenly elevated to foremanships, is said to be responsible for much of the dissatisfaction at the plants.

Teachers' Summer SChool Closed Teachers' Summer SChool Closed INSTRUCTORS AND PUPILS HAVE HAD INSPIRING SESSION Hope to Make School a Permanent Institution The Savannah Summer School for Teachers which closed yesterday has been so successful in every feature of its work, that it has already been decided to conduct it again next year. Its influence in the community has been so stimulating to all the people and the scope of its activity has been so far-reaching into all the interests of Savannah, that people, ordinarily not concerned directly with school work, are interested to see the work repeated and perpetuated. The instructors, eight in number, were selected after careful inquiry from competent sources, and thus have represented the very best available authority in modern educational ideas and methods. They have done their work conscientiously and well and have found their more than a hundred teacher-pupils willing and hardworking and the institution has been of great benefit in this community. The educational ideas of today are designed to stimulate and arouse child life from many angles, in order to awaken the latent powers of child mind because each of the child's powers influences and reacts upon the others. In this particular task the Summer school has been eminently successful and there will no doubt be an awakening and renewed interest in the schools of the city during the coming year. Practically all of the city teachers have been in attendance upon the Summer School, and hence all the schools will be affected in the improvement which is to come as a result of the summer's work. The lecture courses which have formed a part of the school's schedule have brought to the school and to the city many very prominent people, covering a wide variety of current topics and opinions, and this feature of the school work has been particularly instructive and inspiring. During the period of the school's session, the local teachers and city folk have joined in giving the teachers a round of social and cultural entertainments which have taken any surplus energy and time which they could spare. These courtesies have been interesting and enjoyable to the instructors and pupils. The school was formally closed with a lecture by Superintendent Gibson at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon. Superintendent Gibson has manifested unusual interest ad ethusiasm in the school from the very beginning and has had much to do with making the oceasion the great success which it has been. He is also one of the earnest advocates of making the venture an annual affair, each year improving and advancing its features of all kinds. Last night a farewell party was held at the Savannah Home Association at which the instructors and visiting pupils were guests of the local people. The following is a list of the instructors with an enumeration of their special work and their home addresses: Miss Jemima Harris, Washington, D. C., drawing and clay moulding. Miss Bertha L. Smith, Meridian. Miss, child psychology and methods. Miss Bessie Nelms, Montgomery. Ala., English and arithmetic. Mrs. W. E. Brown, Indianapolis, Ind., school management and history. Mrs. L. V. Snead, Louisville, Ky., geography and English. Miss Edith Crogman, Atlanta, Ga. home and rural economics. Mr. Edgar H. Webster, Atlanta. Ga. geography and arithmetic. Mrs. H. A. Whiting. Tuskegee, Ala. paper cutting and sand table work. Misses Fannie, Ruby and Magnolia Pughsley and Mrs. H. L. Chance of Swainborough motored to the city last week to see their brother, Mr. Stubbs Pughsley, off to Gamp Gordon, Monday. After spending ten days with friends and relatives at Garnett, S. C., Mrs. J. G. Murry and her mother, Mrs. A. M. Murry, have returned to the city. Mrs. Murry also visited her sister, Mrs. G. W. W. Drowni of Barnwell, S. G. --- --- MID-SUMMER SURPRISES FOR SUBURBAN LIFE AND SEA- SIDE NEEDS. New York, August 9th—Just what would we do without our everlasting excuse in which we take refuge for wearing our newest and most coveted afternoon frocks. Whether at one of the smart hotels in town or in the big "out-door," the tea is served and the frock is worn. Just a present he favorable weather condi- C. McCALL tions permit extensive entertaining on the lawns and in the gardens ofurban homes. What is refreshing sight! Following the Straight Silhouette Light, flimsy dresses of colles, batiste. and organdie, which appeal. Oh, so much as the mercury rises. The other day I was particularly fascinated with an unusual little design in a delicate tint of orchid chiffon. The waist was collarless, with hem-stitching at the neckline and butoned at the back. The skirt was slightly draped at the left side, which, by the way, is to be a popular fall feature. The sole trimming and charm of the creation, was a girdle of three narrow ribbons in emerald green, deep violet and salmon-ping, which formed a loop low and long ends at the waistline where the fullness of the draped skirt was caught up. Simplicity, of course, dominated and was the secret of its successful appearance. But then simplicity always means success with a grown. The youthful frock illustrated is severely simple yet for that very reason is a high achievement in the art of dress design. Informal dresses are worn now al- most exclusively and oneses the for- mal evening dress only at some ultra extraordinary affair. The existing conditions have exerted a noticeable influence over the women of today in the selection of her wardrobe. For indeed, the utmost care and discretion must used in the selection of clothes now. To go into the shops and in- dulge in fanciful luxuries is but a mem- ory. More human things occur: time, and reflections, and clothes have only a secondary claim in our sentiments. Much Ado About Hats Do women fully realize the importance of a becoming hat? I think not. Some charming costumes lose all effectiveness because the wearer does not give enough consideration to the essential article of her wardrobe. And right now there is such wide selection PHONE 4174 with having the only Negro Dry Cleaning concern in the state, advertised and doing business with Negro capital, under Negro management, and working Negro workmen. We feel this is worth your knowing-at Harrell's for the past week, there has been more than eighteen hundred Neckties and ladies' delicate garments of superior quality, gentlemen's suits, Cleaned pressed, Renovated and sent home in a unique and sanitary manner—everything absolutely sterilized and disinfected before leaving the works. We feel this is worth every individual that wear clothes. and love to look the part of a thorough-bred knowing there is no other place that you can walk in Savannah to have your clothing dry-cleaned and look into black faces, and have our garments checked and tell them your are Mr. Mrs. Neckties and feel that you are not insulting or subject to an insult. Think it over thrice—then delegate to us the responsibility of keeping your garments thoroughly cleaned, at reasonable prices. Have you ever thought of the absolute necessity of sending your garments to a Negro when in need of this kind of week. Think for a moment, what it means to you as an individual, it really gives you more prestige as you walk in the streets of Sagannah. Allow us to cite this, to you. If there were no errors do and variety even for the most fastidious. Dainty organdies with fluffy little ruffles for the summery afternoon frock, chiffon and lowers for their foulard or Georgette dress, and smart little advanced velvet shapes for the more tailored costume. What a tragedy if Madame does not search and find the acme of charm and fascination to complete her carefully thought-out wardrobes. For Those Wor Enjoy a Dip comes a variety of suits just frivolous enough to meet the frolicsome waves enough to meet the frolicsome waves of the shore. And then all the beach accessories. The ordinary sweater of last year has given way to the more pretentious and eloborate qualifies of the beach cape. One feels quite undressed without this charming protection against the unmerciful rays of the obstinate sun. One of the shops shows a model developed in vermillon rubberized satin, trimmed with fringe of the same color around the lower edge of the cape. Dewitching indeed would the darkeyed, vivacious maiden be wearing this cape over a simple black satin suit! A vermillon cap with fringe loosely dangling over the left car, is a delightful compliment to this costume © MOCALL One Reason for Spotrs which defies the most dasing white caps. And then, of course, tennis or golf is an excellent excuse for some alluring sports, clothes. And, sports clothes must receive their due consideration, for how often do they fill in when one knows not just what to wear. The dress illustrated is particularly attractive for the young girl with a slim graceful figure. It is developed in cream-colored wool jersey, and bright green, worsted is used for the blanket stitch around the collar. The large pockets are attached and buttoned on he peplum to match the button-over effect of the cuff. A LETTER FROM A SAVANNAHIAN IN THE TRENCHES IN THE TRENCHES Mr. Sol. C. Johnson. Editor Savannah Tribune. Dear Mr. Johnson: While at our rest billet, after weeks of hard work in the trenches, I am taking the liberty to write you a few lines. I am a Savannah boy and have many old friends there. Sometimes ago, I came north and later joined the Little New York Infantry, a colored National Guard regiment. I am here with the regiment in France after we moved about from camp to camp in the States. Because of our many moves I have lost the addresses of several of my friends in Savannah whom I should like to hear SAVANNAH IS CREDITED— THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE SATURDAY AUGUST 10, 1918 The only cleaning concern of its kind in the city from. Therefore, if you will do me the kindness of publishing this letter in your widely read paper perhaps they will see it and drop me a line. We are continually under fire when in the trenches. On the morning of April—we experienced our first bombardment which ended in our favor. After that we have been under heavy barrages many times and now the roar of the cannon scarcely is noticed by us. France is a fine place and the trenches are great. I am preparing an article for your paper of our boys at the front and hope you will publish it. Thanking you for this favor.

The new subscriber to the Tribune for this week is Mrs. Alice Lights of Walterboro, S. C. DEEDS blazon opinions as words cannot; and the white people of Winston-Salem, N. C., have recently expressed themselves on Negro education in a somewhat spectacular fashion. The Slater Industrial and Normal School for colored students is located there, and has about 500 students yearly. Founded by the Slater Board, it has been taken over by the state of North Carolina as one of its three normal schools for eNgroes. It has been in operation, twenty-five years—long enough to be tested by its results. The school needed new building for its industrial and agricultural departments; and through the efforts of the county's state senate the legislature appropriated $10,000.00 on condition of an equal sum being raised outside. The General Education Board offered half of this. Then the Mayor of Winston-Salem, of his own motion, called together some forty of the leading white citizens. He ing business in the city of any kind, you would not be accorded the recognition you now enjoy. Really this is something to think over; so every time you have anything to be cleaned or want to purchase any article, try the black man first, should you not get satisfaction from him, try another, don't knock anyone, for there is always room for improvement—Harrell's Dry Cleaning Co., is improving daily in working force and efficiency, its up to you to help us to have the largest and best in the South, irrespective. We are doing business where business can be done. Where doing business on a street where there is no other of its kind. We are doing business in a town where there is no other of its kind. Savannah is second to none for business. Nebrose business with Negro capital, on Negro soil and on a Negro thoroughfare. Harrell's Dry Cleaning Co. is the only Nissan Dry concern in the city. We are working five efficient workers are very polite. Our greatest assets are satisfied customers one of our assets. Our doors open 7:30 a.m. and we our patriotism, we close at 7:30 p.m. proposed that, in view of the value of the school's work, "to Winston-Salem and the entire state," the whites of the city should give it $10,000.00 in proof of their appreciation of its constructive work, and of the spirit and character of its principal, S. G. Atkins. The proposal was heartily endorsed and the $10,000.00 quickly raised. The total amount, $25,000 was presented to the school at its recent twenty-fifth commencement. Governor Bickitt of North Carolina delivered the commencement address to an audience of both races, and added his testimony to the school's moral and economic value to the state. The students and teachers, to show their appreciation of these gifts, and of the school, have undertaken to raise $5,000.00 more, about half of which is already subscribed. A Female-ee Board of Education Shelby County, Tenn., believes Negro education worth providing for. Last winter the county Board of Education appropriated $60,000.00 for twenty-five new public schools for colored children, buildingsly000taileducono] $B.001pw all of which are to be opened this fall, Shelby has a county training school for Negro teachers, malutained by the county board and the Slater Fund. Local white friends recently save the principal $1,000.00 for the extension of his work. He has 450 boys in his pig club, has organized 56 chicken clubs and has 400 boys each cultivating one acre for "war food." In Person County, N. C. The Person county Board of Education has raised the salary of every colored teacher in the county within the year. They recently offered for improvements at one-colored school more than the county superintendent, asked for. He declined the extra amount on the ground that the Negroes themselves wished to give part of the money needed. The Negroes seen to have made this an unwritten law for themselves; wherever the white people help their schools, they insist upon doing what they can for their part. Every Southern mother fondles close the remembrance of how her boy made her life miserable hunting down her hiding place for the family cookie jar. Looking in retrospect the boys across seas coddle the dream of the cookie jar in the same light, for they are nothine but grown up boys, and the National War, Work Council of the Y, M, C, A. realizing this too has placed an order for more than a billion cookies for distribution to the American troops in Europe. This gives an insight into the magnitude of the service rendered by the Real Triangle organization. A small realization of the little comforts our fighters crave and the amount they can consume is reflected in the Y. M. C. A's orders for 810,000,000 goods, representing 750 carloads, 96,750,000 of gum, 112,700,000 bars of chocolate, 1,270,000,000 cigarettes and 7,500,000 Jars of jam and marmalade.

It is perhaps our first intimation that our boys are in the the fight. The writer of the letter is in the Buffalo, the colored regiment so well described in a recent number of The Outlook: this is the regiment that made so fine a presentation in Fifth avenue, New York, at the time of the parade, and which reports say, received the greatest ovation of any regiment in the parade. "The letter is a very human letter, as witnessed by the very for letters from friends, but also witnessed by the respect that we pray "not for a safe return but that it shall do my bit and do it well." This is the spirit that is to save our civilization and make the world safer for democracy and democracy safe for the world. Band 389声 C. U. S. Secteur Postal 31 American Expositionary Force. "Dear Mr. Cush: — 90.2 I am with my regiment, having spent a month in a French hospital, I remember writing to you soon after I was operated upon but I knew you were hardly able to read it for it was certainly badly written. As I sit here writing and listening to shells bursting not far away, my mind goes back to those friends at home, and I long to be there, yet I should not want to change places with anyone in the States. I have gained experiences that I could not have gotten in any other way. I have traveled all over France with our band and I have seen all kinds of interesting things. Just now as I write there is a German aviator flying high over our heads, and shells bursting all around him. It is a common thing to hear the hum of a motor high up in the air and sometimes out of sight; then to see the little balls of smoke as shells break. It is easier then to locate the machine by watching where the shells burst. A machine was brought down near us a few days ago. "Our boys are doing their bit, and are in the trenches fighting and making their presence felt. Our men and officers are very proud of the regiment and both want to better the conditions. We have made a very good record and have had less training than any other unit in the American Expeditionary Force. We are the second National Guards to come over and the first colored line soldiers and the only National Guards to bring their state regimental colors over. One of New York's papers spoke of us as being the most cavalry regiment in France. In the past we have been in over try camps and under rear generals. We traveled all over the States if so minded and it looked as if we were going to reject it here in France, but we felt ourselves in the trenches through banners and handling rifle guns. The boys want, the world to know that there are no black cowards and there never have been any. Some have died for the cause, others have been crippled for life, yet they continue to do battle with a smile on their faces and take whatever comes. All of the Savannah boys wish to be remembered to the home folks and want them to know that they intend to hold up their outfit, and too, we realize that the folks back home are doing their bit, and some are doing even more than we are doing, some having given one or two sons, some having given their only child. Some are knitting to keep the boys warm, some are doing more good than they think by writing a letter or two to the boys. This niece is so much to the soldier and makes him feel that there are a lot of boys to forget him. A letter from home means more to the lonely old, or then anything I can think of. I suppose most of my friends and Sunday school mates have been called to the colors; but there must be some that are Hft. If there are any ask them to write a few lines. I should appreciate them so much. Mother's and yours are the only letters I've had front home since I have been here. There are many things I should like to tell you about, but cannot because it is against army regulations. I do not know how long I shall be over here, but I will come back soon day if God wills it. And, Rev. Cash, will you pray for me, not that I shall come back safe, but that I shall do my bit, and do it well; and that I might be of some service to others; and that I may be strong enough to overcome all temptations. "We are going to try to win the war this year, and too, we know that they are trying to do the same thing. For the German people are tired of war. I know Germany cannot with because they have done too much dirt. I have sent children with their husband off; drives of innocent women and girls who were killed by the Bochs. I have killed with a French soldier whose mother and sister have been killed off by them. I have seen rifles of the beautiful churches torn by shells fresh German guns; hospitals have been blown up and bombed and wounded soldiers killed, and many other things have been done by them. "The French people have certainly suffered. Towns after towns have been knocked into a mass of ruins. As you go through these places you see walls of homes and churches standing as if they are making dumb appeals for revenge. As I look in these things I feel sad and sorry for those who were driven from their homes like cattle driven to slaughter, but I feel that all will come out right in the end. "Please remember me to Mrs. Cash and her sister, Miss Rosa. I know she will remember me as I was one of her very bad boys in third grade; and also to Mr. Solomon Johnson. Charlie B. Miller."

Advertising Rates given on application. The Savannah Summer which closed its season yesterday has proved to be a very novel and interesting venture as well as a most inspiring and informing one. It has far exceeded its anticipation and hopes of its promoters, high as they were and has left its balance of profit behind. It has done all it promised and more. With four weeks of intensive application on the part of eight well-chosen instructors and more than a hundred pupils, we have proved that the status of a school is determined by the quality of its teachers and the good faith and capacities of its pupils, and that a good school may be held where ever we may bring together good teachers and conscientious pupils. The school has well demonstrated the splendid possibilities of cooperative effort, and the economy of energy and resources which organized planning may yield. The visiting teachers drawn from the country at large, were experts in their several lines, and their zeal and skill have been brought intensively into play during each day of the school period. They have brought new life, bright ideas and higher ideals to our own teachers; they have introduced the new way of doing a great many old things, and have suggested new lines of activity and interest to the brought into the schools of Savannah. We shall be advanced beyond measure because of the splendid tone of these teachers and the high quality of their successful work. We expect to see our own schools take on new life and our children inspired to larger vision and to a better performance of their duties because of that larger vision of the principles and purposes of education. We believe these teachers have themselves derived a rare pleasure and profit from having come in association with our own folks. We observed they seemed pleased with Savanah and appreciated the little courtesies and kindnesses which have been shown them. It has been noted that never before have the people generally taken such an abiding and wholesome interest in the school proceedings and in the people who were behind these successes. The whole experience has been one of rare dignity and tone, and we are coming to rather pride ourselves on the quality and manner of our accomplishment. The Tribune urged upon the city of Savannah, through its loyal and progressive men and women, to rally to the Summer School, and receive the visiting instructors with open arms and a genuine welcome. We have seen Savannah with no dissenting voice, join in giving those worthy representatives of the race the best in fellowship and friendship, which we have, and giving unstintingly, and we are glad. HABOR SITUATION MORE GRAVE The labor situation in Savannah continues to give serious concern and alarm. The heavy drain upon the local labor supply due to the selective draft and other causes, together with complications brought about by lack of systematic registration on distribution of the available labor supply and the lack of uniformity in the wage scales for all grades of labor, all these have combined to produce a very unantisfaccary situation. There is not, seemingly, the proper order cooperation between the private and public industries employing great numbers of laborers in the matter of distribution, and uniform wage, which would tend to stabilize labor and increase the efficiency of production. There does seem to be the proper coordination between these supplying labor and those utilizing it. There seems to be no competent central clearing house. There appears to be a conspicuous lack of system in the whole situation. Private corporations not under government direction, are placed at a serious disadvantage when thrown into competition for labor with the government projects which operate upon the "cost and 10 per cent basis." It can at once be seen that private business cannot meet the high wage scale which such industries provide, and because there is a flow of labor toward the government-supervised plants at the expense of private industries, although these may be engaged in essential production and may be under government regulation. In the former case, the government accepts the responsibility and guarantees a legitimate profit; is the latter, the government restricts and regulates, without regard to the effect which such regulation may be upon said industry. Steps must be taken at once to make government employment bureaus effective to register and place the available labor supply, so as to do away with the wasted labor involved in uncertain and random applying. It was reported a few days ago by a foreman of the Foundation Shibuilding Company that fifty or more men are turned from their gates each day—men who are lured there by high wages, but, who when turned away do not bring up at employment bureaus. This should not be, and would not, if there were the proper cooperation between the bureaus and plants. It will be necessary to so organize all the interests that labor will fluctuate less, and that can best be done by equitabilizing the pay which labor receives in all grades. Organization must be sufficiently effective and efficient to prevent a three-dollar hand from becoming restive, leaving his employment, and applying for a five-dollar place. The work card will not equitabilize wage scales and it will not stabalize labor. These must be taken up as definite tasks under some central and authoritative commission, which would embrace all the larger and essential industries. The situation in Savannah is somewhat complicated; by the operation, emergency tactics, like the work card system which while it may do some litte good among minor businesses, yet only aggravates the situation in the burger and essential industries. It lowers the spirit and patriotism of many workers; it operates to discriminate against Negro workers, and hence cause discontent, resentment and finally migration among them. These undesirable effects of the card system will become more pronounced as soon as the demand for and the opportunity of unskilled labor, hereabout, cease when the new industries are well established in their equipment. Abusive treatment at the works, on the transportation lines, at the hands the police and in the courts, will all have their influence in this vexing situation. DR. BRENT AT CAMP WHEELER Editor of the Savannah Tribune Dear Sir:— Please allow me space in your valuable paper to give a brief report of my trip to Camp Wheeler on last Monday with the boys who entrained on that day.— fuller report will be given at the Y. M. C. A tomorrow. Our trip to Macon was without mishap. The boys were in fine spirit from the time they left Savannah until they reached the camp. On the train a jolly good time was had. The singing of community songs, the eating of watermelons and lunches, and the writing of letters and cards to the folks at home, were some of the features of the trip. All along the route, the boys received enthusiastic reception from both white and colored. At the camp, we found the camp Y. M. C. A. in full bloom and under the management of Secretary H. H. Balsiger who received me most cordially. He carried, me over the camp and showed me the various features they furnished for the boys including boxing contests, volley ball, baseball, moving pictures and other features. While I was there a boxing match was going on which I had the pleasure of enjoying. Mr. Balsiger introduced me to Mr. P. J. Blackwell of Hiberta, Ga., the only secretary of color in the work at Camp Wheeler, who will look after our boys directly. All in all, ourstrip made in the interest of our Y. M. C. A. was humbly interesting and presents in held relief the work of the local "Y" in the community. The following persons are requested to meet at Dr. H. M. Collier's residence, 415 McDonough street, Sunday August 25th, at 6:20 o'clock.

Baldness Conquered RECIPE MAILED FREE A veteran business man, who was almost completely bald and had tried numerous tonics, letions, shampoos, etc. without benefit, came across, while on a journey, an Indians' recipe by which he grew a complete crop of healthy, luxurious hair that he now possesses. Others—men and women—have reported remarkable hair growth by the same method. Whoever wishes the recipe may obtain it free by writing to John Hart Britain, BA-222, Station F, New York, N. Y. Or obtain a box of the ointment, Kotalko, made according to the "perfected recipe, at the drug store, ready for use. Indians' Secret of Hair Growth In a vast number of cases, when hair falls out, the roots are not detached, remain imbedded in the scalp, or are displaced by knots or bumps, needing only fine fillets. The usual alabine shampoos, although not hair, are of no use in these cases.

One would think to hear these prophets of evil declalm, that there was a danger of destroying the very foundations of the Masonic structure if one Mason should honor structure if one Mason should happen to tell another the character of the business he was engaged in or the profession he followed. If men would study the traditions and history of Masonry with more attention to the detail of the spirit of the institution, and with less thought upon the observation of the letter of the law, they would learn that the early Masons were deeply imbued with the spirit of brotherhood and lived their Masonry in their daily lives. If I read a Masonic history right, I find every evidence to prove that the early Masons were strongly impregnated with the spirit of cooperation. They were a band of brothers who recognized any brother's need as a sufficient cause for action, whether that need arose physical, mental or spiritual. We need broadening out sometimes and the day is now present when Masons should recognize a brother in the day as well as in the light. If I can do business with a Mason on terms favorable to myself as I can do with a profane, why should I not favor my brother, rather than the stranger. If Masonry has become so purely speculative and theoretical that it has caused to be a practical reality then it is time we turn back to the days of the practice of practical brotherhood, the kind of brotherhood that is mutually helpful in every experience of life. Oriental Consistory Monthly Magaz The Mystic Shrine offers to Knights Templar and Thirty-second Degree Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite Masons an alliance meeting again, the Devoted Apprentice may have started upon their journey toward the high at the same time. Co-ordinate anasonic rank, they have nothing in common save the Mother shrine. The mission of Freemasonry is the bestiment of mankind. This not being gain-aid, why should not it devotees have a common ground for that relaxation so essential to physical well being, happiness and contentment? The Shrine teaches broadness of vision, gives liberty without license, convince Masons of the high degree that there is yet one lesson to be learned, practises a charity unbounded by bigotry, and brings in closer communion Masons separated by choice of different Rites. The Mystic Shrine is not and does not pretend to be a Masonic institution. It unites the Double Eagle and the Cross and Crown in the bonds of good fellowship, teaches all the worth of charity of speech, scorns hypocrisy, and hegels friendships that are the oasis in life's desert—Masonic Monthly. Every Mason should be a painstaking student all his life. He should study allways in which he can best serve his family, city, state and nation; how best he can live and act in order that he can confer the highest honor upon Masonry. SILENT THOUGHTS Symbols, implements, space, type, words and pictures are only the tools used to express an idea. The finished result of the expert teacher is not a material substance which can be seen with the eye, or touched by the hands, but a definite, positive impression on many minds which is shown by the voluntary acts in the daily life of Mature just as steel beams give safety and strength to large buildings and houses. We only make clear the point that we strengthen man's moral structure and just as small rivets unite the whole structure together so do little areas of knowns of every day that help your moral structure, and helps you to build for that house not made by hands orally in the heavens. Scottish Rate Institution. are we always as careful in defending the honor and good name of a brave man. Masons should be careful of yourself with a view to discover your own situation touching the matter. Mothers will all be interested in the plans for Patriotic Play Week which have just been announced by the Children's Bureau of the U.S. Department of Labor at Washington and the Child Welfare Department of the Woman's Committee as on of the features of Children's Year. It is proposed that a week or part of week as map be most convenient in different communities be set aside as a time when all the children and young people shall have a chance to test their strength and muscular agility by comparing in athletic contests of various kinds. The plan is to provide play leadership locally throughout the summer in games that promote physical efficiency. In the Patriotic Play-week the children will be given a chance to show the results of their summer's play and other activities. Play work is intended to include all the occupations of children's summer-time—such work as is done by the boys' and girls' clubs—the canning pig, and poultry-raising clubs of the Department of Agriculture, which are organized in every state. Boy Scouts can give their drills and demonstrations of their special activities. There may be exhibits of work done for the Junior Red Cross or for other patriotic purposes, and such things as bird houses, garden furniture, and kites which the children have made may be displayed. At the same time that the exhibit is going on, it is hoped that the children and young people will be given a chance to have the best possible sort of a time. In wartime more than once it is necessary to hold our children to a normal health way of life to keep them cheerful and happy. It will known that play is essential to the best health and development of children. This game and sport stimulate growth and vision, both of mind and body, train the special senses and strengthen the will and character. Therefore, mothers should find all needed encouragement to their children when they are asked to take part in the Patriotic Play Week. Children who sing should have a chance to join the choruses, those who play some instrument should the children do take part in the band, those who have made a fine collection of something may be allowed to enter it for exhibition and all should indulge part in the games and play of the celebration. First mothers sometimes feel that it is beyond their power to get their children ready for the outdoor chimes, but if the Patriotic Play Week is held in part of the Town Hall, other neighborhood gathering the whole family will be able to have a part in pleasures and benefits. From now on there will not be too much time for making ready for the Play Week, and mothers are urged to give such help as they can in this community movement, both through their own children and by assisting with their community arrangement for the Play Week. One suggestion which should appeal especially to the mothers of young children is for an exhibit of materials used in the home play of the younger children. This might include a sand box, homemade playground apparatus, such as swings, tester guard, the salts, slides, and the like with homeschool toys and other devices for the entertainment of young children which would be suggestive and helpful to other mothers. The interest and help of mothers and fathers are indispensable to the success of all such undertakings, and should be freely given.

To Georgia Farmers' Improvement Association in this crisis pledges its loyalty to the cause of liberty and justice. It pledges further the muted support of all of its members to the nation and teh state in every effort put forth to win the war and establish the principles of real democracy throughout the world. To accomplish this we offer cheerfully our men of draft age for service in the fields and those of us above the draft age to work faithfully to produce and conserve foodstuffs, to invest our earnings in War Savings Securities and by words and deeds do whatever we can to win the war. We note with deep interest and appreciation the disposition on the part of those in authority to condemn mob violence and earnestly hope that legislation with this object in view only receive the support of our law-makers both national and state. We have read with interest and concern the discussion in the Georgia legislature on "The Work or Fight Bill". And while we believe most firmly that every able bodied individual should at all times render some useful service, and especially at this time of peculiar and pressing need, at the same time we wish to call our lawmakers attention to the real and grave danger of creating such condition of peonage with all of the evils connected with such a condition. That such evils may not grow one of the legislation pending, we earnestly urge our legislators to please throw around the proposed measure, such safeguards as shall insure a square deal to the humblest and weakest citizen of the commonwealth. We desire also to express the belief that the bill will be greatly strengthened if made apply to males only instead of men and women. A teaspoonful mens nothing.

Jordan, corresponding secretary of the Mission corresponding secretary of the Foreign Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention, are pushing his claims vigorously for the vacant post of Minister to Liberia. Dr. Jordan has long evinced deep interest in the welfare of the "Dark Continent" and his backers say this will make him especially welcome at the court of Monrovia. Rev. Ernest Lyon, former Minister to Liberia, is anxious to aid in its battle for a loan of $5,000,000.00 to the republic over the sea to aid in its battle against German aggressions. The products of Liberia are said to be rich and the re-payment of the loan would only be a question of time. Rev Dr. Lyon is Liberia's council-general to the United States, having won the complete confidence of the government while representing this country over there. The colored women of this country are included in the United States student Nurse Reserve for which enrollment began on July 29th, through an announcement made by the Women's committee of the Council of National Defense. The Student nurses will be used to fill vacancies in American hospital created by the great number of nurses now in overseas service. A list of hospitals in which colored student nurses will be admitted will soon be made public. The campaign to recruit these student nurses is being conducted under the auspices of Surgeon General Gorgas, Surgeon General Blue of the public Health Service, the American Red Cross and the Council of National Defense. Information can be obtained from the Red Cross authorities in any given locality. Dr. Charles S. Morris, Jr., "the boy erator" is to lecture in this city soon. He is the son of the famous Rev. Charles S. Morris, the spell-dinding gospel preacher and young Morris said to be a "chip of the old block." He was the youngest delegate to the recent Liberty Congress and made one of the really notable addresses during its sessions. Dr. J. M. Gandy, president of the Virginia Normal and Collegiate Institute, was in the city last week on business connected with the War Camp Community Service. Why go away?
