The Savannah Tribune. VOLUME XXXIII Business League In Fine Session MANY EXCELLENT ADDRESSES WERE LISTENED TO Was One of the Most Helpful and Inspiring Meetings Yet Held Atlantic City, N. J., August 24th What is regarded as one of the most significant events of the year and an epocal one in the annals of the race is the nineteenth annual session of the National Negro Business League, which met in this city this week beginning August 21st, and ending Friday evening with one of the most notable social functions of the season among Negroes. The outstanding features of the sessions were the addresses of welcome by Governor W. E. Edge, Mayor Bacha rach, Dr. R. R. Moton and Hon. Emmett J. Scott, special assistant to the secretary of war. In delivering the welcome address on behalf of the state of New Jersey, Governor Edge spoke of the great progress made by the Negro in face of the blind prejudice which confronts him. He said that the attaining of education first was the stepping stone to branch out and become a part of the business of the country. He gave a clear definition of democracy and said that it must be emphasized at home as well as abroad. Mayor Bacharach followed the governor. After paying a high tribute to the Negro as a citizen he dwelt upon the men of color who readily responded to the present draft and also when a call was made for 20 or more men was made 90 or more always responded. His rendering of the poem "A Little Service Flag," moved many of the visitors to tears. His gift of the key of the city to the league was greeted with applause which lasted five minutes. President Napier of the league in accepting the key said that since the organization of the league, in its annual sessions from city to city, Atlantic City leads, as this is the first key that has ever been presented to the league. With his native witticism and eloquent manner of reaching his audience Dr. R. R. Moton of Tuskegee institute, responded to the welcome address of Governor Edge and Mayor Bacharach. He singled out inspiring facts revealing the intense loyalty of the Negro and cited the thrilling events of the battle of Carrizal. He gave a plain interpretation of what democracy meant and asserted that the Negro was unswervingly loyal to his country and expected his contribution for the ultimate triumph of democracy to bring him the things that have been long deferred. President Napier presided and was assisted by Charles Banks, of Mount Bayou, Miss., and Chas. H. Brooks, of Philadelphia. His annual message was prim full of interesting facts and greatly inspired the vast audience. The message brought by Major Spin garn and eloquently accentuated by Dr. Roman of Nashville, Tenn., who also elicited unstinted applause from the audience that filled Fitzgerald's auditorium, in which most of the sessions were held, was one fraught with facts of vital import to the Negro race and the nation. Hon. Emmett J. Scott in beginning the symposium on "Whining the War," made one of the best patriotic addresses ever delivered in this city. Thruout his memorable address he reached his vast audience and aroused a kind of enthusiasm that is needed for the winning of the war. Mr. Scott in his report called attention to the fact that in the first registration 737, 628 Negroes were registered out of a total of 9,586,568; that is to say, 7.69 per cent of the total registration of June 5, 1917, was composed of colored registrants. The total number of Negroes called by the provost marshal general's office up to and including July 15, 1918, was 227,541, while the number called to August 8, 1918, was 311,308. He spoke in detail of what the colored people of the country are doing to help win the war, mentioning, among other things that some forty colored chapelains are now serving in the National Army along with one thousand colored officers who have been commissioned as captains, first and second lieutenants in the United States Army and in the medical reserve corps. In his address he said that the Negro in the present war for liberty and world-wide democracy, was proving to (Continued on page Four) M. Dr. W. A.

PARENT TEACHERS MEETING The parent-teachers of the Clyler Street school will meet afternoon at 5:00 p.m. SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, SATURDAY AUGUST 31, 1918 MANAGER J. C. LINDSAY OF AT LANTA MUTUAL IN THE CITY General Manager J. C. Lindsay, of the Atlanta Mutual Insurance Company, was in the city last week for a few days visiting his family. Since being promoted to the general-managership of the company about seven months ago, from the superintendent deyce of the local office of the company, the business of the company has increased in a remarkable manner. The semi-annual statement, recently issued, shows that the company now has in force policies to the number of 61,550 amounting to $1,678,403.33. A late issue of the Atlanta Mutual Bulletin, a weekly paper issued by the company, gives some very interesting facts concerning the big business which this company is doing in the three states in which it operates. It shows that there were in the week ending August 17th, seventy-one agents who collected 100 per cent. and over on their debits, S. M. Johnson, of Atlanta, leading with a 197 per cent. collection. The same issue of the paper shows that the Savannah office, under Manager J. H. Doyle, with $1,268.50 led all the offices of the company with debits of $500,00 and over. Agent Dan Thornton of this city, was in the leading position of the big debit men of the country, his weekly collection account being $166.80. Other local agents having prominent places in this especial department were C. E. Dobson, J. L. Biggins, S. J. Howard, P. E. Cohen and J. C. Lindsay, Jr., who respectively, ranked sixteenth, eighteenth, twenty-second, thirtieth and thirty-ninth among the total number of agents of the company with debits over a hundred dollars. The company paid out during the first six months of the year, to members, $104,304.46. B. M. C. To Be Held In New York MEETING CONTRARY TO RULING OF THE SUB-COMMITTEE Davis Faction Behind Movement Court Proceedings Likely to Follow From all accounts there will be a session of the B. M. C. of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows in America this year, notwithstanding the fact that the Sub Committee of Manage ment at its January meeting postponed the holding of the B. M. C. for two two years hence. The action of the committee has caused considerable comment among the members of the order and opinions are divided as to the authority of the Sub-committee to postpone the meeting, many claiming that the committee acted beyond its power and had no right whatever to call off the holding of the convention. It is understood that arrangements have been made for the holding of the B. M. C. in New York on the 9th. of September and that many of the jurisdictions working under the Sub-committee will be represented at the meeting. The movement to hold the meeting was started by the Davis faction, contrary to the wishes of the national grand officers, and it is expected that a lively fight in the civil courts will be the outcome. Whether any of the members of the Sub-committee will be in attendance at the meeting cannot be ascertained at present, but according to a news article in last week's New York Age, it is claimed that W. David Brown, who is national grand treasurer and also grand master of the state of New York, orders have been issued by him to all the lodges in his jurisdiction for them to call special meetings in order to elect delegates at once to the B. M. C. which meets in New York. It is also claimed that such orders were a complete surprise to the membership of the order in the Empire State as Brown is known to be in line with the Morris faction. The outcome of the meeting will be keenly watched by the rank and file of the order through the country. Those gober to the meeting from Georgia will leave next Friday. --- STATE SUPERINTENDENT FIRE SIDE COMPANY IN THE CITY Mr. W. H. Logan Spends Few Days Here with Friends. Mr. W. H. Logan, a well known Savannahian who is now living in Cincinnati, Ohio, was in the city for a few days this week. Mr. Logan is now connected with the Flireside Mutual Aid Association, being superintendent for the state of Ohio for that company. Mr. Logan was called to Atlanta on business matters pe-training to the company which is connected with the Flireside Mutual Insurance Company, organized in this state about a year ago and which has recently opened an office in this city. Mr. Logan has found insurance business in the north on the boom, and says that it is a splendid field for Negro companies since the great migration of Negroes to that section several years ago. Before going with the Ohio company, Mr. Logan was travel-agent for the Guaranty Mutual Health and Life Insurance Company of this city. A WAR MARRIAGE Dr. James Van Buren and Mrs. Biernie Shaw Edwards, both of Atlanta, were married here last Saturday afternoon at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Troddie W. Riley, 38th street, E.

A VERY PROGRESSIVE CLASS OF CITIZENS Negroes in White Bluff District Show Enterprise The White Bluff, Nicolsonboro and Coffee Bluff sections of the county possess hundreds of our people, many of whom are very progressive. Years ago, they proved this progressiveness by purchasing and paying in full for a large tract of land on which they are now living. Last week they purchased a large motor truck to be used for transportation purposes. This was done by the White Bluff Transportation Company, of which Mr. T. T. Brown is manager. From present outlooks, it will be a success N. Private Christopher Butler, son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Butler of Thunderbolt, who is in camp, at Langley Field, Va. WAYCROSS, GA., NEWS There will be a call meeting of the N.A.A.C.P. next Tuesday night, September 5th, and every member of the or organization is expected to be present as matters of vital importance will be discussed The National Negro Business League which met in Atlantic City, N. J., last week was probably the finest session this organization has had in its twenty one years of existence. Most of the Georgia and Florida delegations went up to the meeting in a party of fourteen, representing Waycross, Savannah, Balnbridge, Ga., and Jacksonville and Lake City, Fla. The party traveled in a special Pullman sleeper. Prof. H. H. Thweatt, the delegate from Waycross, spoke on "How we populize our local league," and was one of the three speakers from Georgia to be on the program. The subject as discussed by Mr. Thweatt seemed to have been well taken by the convention and received spontaneous congratulations of those in authority. After the convention, through the kindness of his son, Mr. McKinley H. Thweatt and some of his former students, Mr. Thweatt took a quick trip to New York. He also enjoyed the beautiful scenes up the Hudson, touching at West Point, Albany and Troy, N. Y. He returned home Wednesday and will render a report of his trip at the reguar meeting of the local league, September 18th. With Rev. J. W. Johnson at the head of the program committee of the X. M. C. A., it seems that the association has taken on new life. The dirve that the local Negro Business League so successfully made to raise the money necessary to send the delegate to the National Convention has further popularized this organization. The amount raised was over $80.00. The concert turned over $9.00, Mt. Zion church $5.38; Macedonia, $5.00; Rev. J. W. Johnson's church, $35.35; Antloch, $10.00. We do not have exact reports of the other churches, but will give them next week. DIES SUDDENLY WHILE MAKING PROFESSIONAL CALL Mrs. Israel Townsley Jackson, a mid-wife, died suddenly Tuesday night while making a professional call in Hall street lane between Montgomery and West Broad. Mrs. Jackson was called earlier in the day by an expective mother of that night and had gone to visit the woman. All arrangements were made for her to care for the case and she appeared at the house early Tuesday night and was ministering unto the woman who would be a mother in about an hour when she was suddenly taken ill with heart trouble. A hack was called and no sooner had she been assisted into it than she died. The ill woman was taken to the hospital. Mrs. Jackson lived at Park avenue lane and Cuyler streets. A very enjoyable early evening hall was given last Saturday at the Catholic hall for the soldier boys who were stationed at the Ga. State college. The affair was given by the young ladies of the city and will long be remembered by the boys as one of the most delightful of the many pleasant occasions they have experienced in this city. Military Detachment Goes to Augusta Military Detachment Goes to Augusta ORDERED TO CAMP HANCOCK FOR FURTHER TRAINING Were Given a Big Send Off at the Depot Wednesday Afternoon The nearly two hundred young men, who have been in attendance upon the military training school at the Georgia State College for the past two months, were transferred to Camp Hancock at Augusta, Ga., this week. Before their departure last Wednesday, the ladies of the Toussaint L'Overture branch of the Red Cross presented each of the men with a comfort kit, containing comb, brush, and other toilet articles. Included among the articles in each kit, was a wash rag, knitted by the girls of the Red Cross. At the College headquarters, the commanding officer presented each man with a card-certificate designating the record and grade of his work during the training period. Each was classified either as expert, journeyman or apprentice together with his record in deportment, physical condition, etc. The boys, in turn, presented the captain, lieutenant and physician each with useful articles in appreciation of their services in their behalf. The condition, appearance and fleness of the men on departure showed a vast improvement over that shown on their coming two months' ago, and it is believed that these men will give a good account of themselves in whatever battalion they may be placed. In the city, as they have come among the people on leave, the boys have made a splendid impression and there is much genuine regret at their leaving. During he same day on which the Savannah contingent entrained, a train load of similar men from the state college at Tallahassee, Fla., also passed through the city en route to Camp Hancock aso. This group proved to be an unusually jolly bunch of fellows, and during their short stay at the station they made things lively with their singing and cheering. In the local men to go to Camp Hancock, were several Savannah men, one being Private Houston, L. Tolbert, formerly linotype operator for the Tribune. JACRSONVILLE, FLA., NEWS Rev. J. T.

JOHNSON Editor and Proprietor JAS. H. BUTLER Asso. Editor and Manager ED. H. BURKE City Editor Published Every Saturday 1099 WEST BROAD STREET Phone 2171 BLEASE AND VARDAMAN DIE Mississippi and South Carolina have spoken eloquently on Vardaman and Please. They have been killed politically, beyond resurrection and the people will never honor them again. They go down at a time when their defeat is emphatic and conspicuous in the critical time at which it occurs and because of the serious principles of loyalty and patriotism which are involved. These men for years have been dominating figures in the politics of their respective states. They ascended to power, not through any superiority, over their peers and competitors, but they went into office on the popular wave of Negrophobia, which was our rent about fifteen years ago, when Vardaman, Carmack, Hoke Smith, Money, Heflin and others rode triumphantly in power on a platform mostly of Negro oppression. We are fatalists somewhat, when we see and observe the logical and inevitable trend of natural events. Those men staried wrong, and though there stars dazzled in the ascendant and they were a nation's idols in the press and on the platform, it was for but a brief period, and "great was their fall," so much so that their apparently brilliant success can scarce atone and compensate for their present ignominy and chagrin. They are repudiated by their people at a most in opportune time for themselves. Fate is a fickle goddess. This is so well proved here. One day a man may be a nation's hero, the next he may be anathema. Negro people, whose lot in the south land has been infinitely worse because of the reign of these men, will welcome their timely political death and will rejoice at their going. We feel lkie committing teh sacrilege of rejoicing in the funera hour, because we have such good reason. The political life of the insincere and unprincipled and unscrupulous leader is ephemeral and fleeting. It were better that men were rigidly honest, taking their inspiration and ambitions from their honest convictions, and then to meet the field of other men of aims and ambitions, detrained to succeed rather in their own strength than in the weakness of other men, least of all to succeed at the expense and misery of a defenseless people. THINNING THE HOME RANKS So many men have responded to the call of the colors, by volunteering or in answer to the selective draft, that we are beginning to notice their absence from the streets; we are being to miss them from their accustomed haunts and avenues of labor; we see other men, or women, in their places and boys doing what was formerly a man's job. All of this brings war nearer to us. All of this quickens our sense of realization and intensifies our interest in the movements and results in the theatre and drama of war. What we are experiencing in Saranah already is being felt all over the country, in every section, for the military draft was meant to be the real democratic method of marshaling a great national army, and is. Through it, the rich rub shoulders with the poor in the same rank; the son of a miner may be the superior officer of the son of a millionaire. Colored men have taken their places in France alongside the Briton, the Scot, the Frenchman and the Italian. All these and more have joined to fight a common foe. And still they go. Everywhere as the trains pass through this city tachments of boys, black and white, go joyfully forward to cantonments or schools, here and there, to be made into soldiers for overseas service. Nearly every week, from our own city great groups of young men are joining the ranks; by scores and by hundreds they go forward, joyfully and courageously. All these men seem to sense the grave responsibility and sacred duty which the government has placed upon their shoulders, and the consciousness of it makes their shoulders erect; makes their step surer and firmer; makes them more comely and graceful; makes them more willing and apt students of the great lessons of war. Already there are over 300,000-colored men in the service, with the number increasing by thousands, each day, each week. By Christmas, at the present rate of entry by draft, there will be half a million black men under arms; a formidable army in itself. These men come from every class and condition of the people to join hands in common cause. Think what this means by way of opportunity in outlook, information, inspiration and hope for the uncouth, unlettered and unkempt youth of the backwoods! Think what it means of hope and outcome for the few who think of freedom and untrammeled justice which it is theirs to win through splendid service! And, now, comes the man-power bill which extends the age limits of those eligible and liable for military service to as young as 18 years and to as old as 45 years. This act alone will make available more than ten millions of men not included within the original limits of 21 to 31 years. This does not mean that the nation is in dire need of these men for immediate service, but indicates the braod and comprehensive scale on which the war is being waged; it indicates forethought, vision and good sense on the part of the government. It is the part of wisdom to provide such unlimited resources of man-power, as well as material resources, in order that the nation may be prepared for any emergency and that the enemy may know that we mean to throw the whole weight of this nation into the field against him. The wider the call is extended, the greater is the opportunity of all the people, even to the women and children, to have active participation in the affairs of the government. It will help to impress those who do not realize that there is a civic responsibility upon each citizen and that after all a government is but the aggregate of its citizens. This is becoming more and more pronouncedly our war, the individual's war as well as the nation's. As the ranks grow thinner at home day by day, and we miss the presence of loved ones, or even feel the sting of sacrifice, let us comfort ourselves in the lofty principles of justice and civilization for which we fight and sacrifice, with the consciousness that out of the dart and din of battle will come a purer civilization, a greater America, a real democracy. OFFICER KILLS COLORED WOMAN At Metcalf, Ga., near Thomasville, last week, an officer, while in quest of a deserter, entered the home of a colored woman, Mrs. Marla Powell. She protested, but to no avail. She endeavored to force her protest, and was brutally killed by the brave officer. This officer had no business whatever in the home of the woman unless he had a warrant authorizing him to enter, and we doubt this fact materially. It is a cowardly deed for a stalwart man, in the garb of an officer of the law to shoot down people in their homes. This officer was quickly acquitted by a jury, but he has not helped the cause of democracy, nor will he clear his conscience. Justice of a divine kind awaits him, and it will be sure. BEAUFORT. S. C.

Have you "the jumps"—or other manifestations of newness? 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 sodily organ, which does not properly give it all allotted service. Go after the offender through that great recuperatory center of the body...your stomach. Ask your drugist 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 sollenid 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 waking diseases that lead to consumption. There are no injurious "come backs" DR. CHARLES TONIC TABLETS—and they will achieve marvellous recuperative adults, where other tonics and reconstructions such as iron, strychaine, arsenic, con liver olic, often fail. Safe and pleasant to take. PRICE 50 CENTS A BOX If your drugrists does not carry them, send 50 CENTS and we will send a box by mail. DR. CHARLES FLESH FOOD COMPANY BROOKLYN, N. Y. Baldness Conquered RECIPE MAILED FREE A veteran business man, who was almost completely bald and had tried numerous tonics, lotions, shampoos, etc., without benefit, came across, while on a journey, an Indians' recipe by which he grew a complete crop of healthy, luxuriant 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 Brittain, 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 dead, but remain imbedded in the scalp, alive, like seeds or bulbs, needing only fertility. The usual alkaline shampoos, alcoholized hair tonics, etc., are of no avail in such cases. The Indians' ointment nourishes the hair and stimulates the growth. Kotakloo fertilizes the scalp and induces hair growth in every case possible; wonderful results reported. For men, "old men" and "old women" lose hair, or loseing-hair, or have dandruff, you should try Kotakloo. It is a pleasure to observe the starting of new hair and its steady increase until a prolific growth supercedes thin hair or baldness. Cut out this notice; show to-others who want beautiful hair. The recipe is free. This is genuine. HEART LEAF TRADE MARK HAIR TONE Natures Famous Remedy. Makes short, nappy, harsh and coarse hair long, soft and luxuriously beautiful. Relieves dandruff, sore and irritated scalp. Darkens gray hair and puts new life into it. All ladies who use Heart Leaf Hair Tone have beautiful hair, and you may have the same.

Zion Baptist church was a great success. Nearly $00.00 was raised in forty-nine days. The plan was introduced by Mr. R. A. Fisher. The most successful rally ever held at Mt. Zion Baptist church ended Monday, night with a very interesting and entertaining musical concert. Every number on the program proved to be a real treat, and the large crowd showed its approval in no uncertain terms. There were ten queens in the contest, each with a treasurer. They were beautifully dressed, each wearing a different costume and each representing her respective country. The treasurers wore white. Queen Esther was the victorious queen. She was presented the crown and $2.50 in gold by the Rev. J. S. Moody. The queens reported in the following order: Treasurer, Mr. B. Davis.....$94.16 Queen Esther, Mrs. Lillie Ulmer. Queen Victoria, Miss Mamie Quarter- man. Treasurer Miss Roberta Young.....$54.82 Queen Elizabeth, Mrs. Hattie Bussie, Treasurer, Mrs. Mary Lue Bush.....$54.59 Queen Isabelle, Mrs. Eliza Jones, Treasurer, Mr. Wm. Brown .....$53.67 Queen Sophie, Miss Mae Frink, Treasurer, Mrs. Blanche Fisher.....$39.47 Queen Alexandra, Mrs. Maria Daniels, Treasurer, Mr. W. M. C.

Jackson.....$36.22 Queen Ann, Mrs. Frances Moultrie, Treasurer, Mrs. Emma Haines.....$35.19 Grand total ..... $482.19 This plan was devised by Mr. Fisher, who has merited unstinted praise by the way he managed and directed every movement connected with the plans and his arduous and splendid work is largely responsible for its success. The official board and church heartily thank each minister for the splendid assistance rendered during the ten nights' preaching. We thank all friends, also the participants of both programs. We are cognizant of the $7.00 donation given by the Southern Coopers Aid and Social Club through Mr. M. B. Jones and the $15.00 of the Peaceful Aid and Social Club, which turned out in a body.

We could not but say a word for her untiring efforts of laboring continually for the upbuilding of the club. She was one of our faithful workers. She was of such a sweet disposition, alwarys having a pleasant word to greet every one. She was indeed loved by all. She shall not meet with us in our meetings, some day we shall meet with her in the realms above. We keenly miss her presence; though our loss is heaven's gain. We humbly bow submissively to Thy will.

Repeated attacks result in a chronic Asthmatic condition, the symptoms of which are a dilation of the lungs and bronchi, and tubular formations.

THE EKER HOFF REMEDY is a specific for all people above troubles. It has helped and raised thousands and will help you. THE EKER HOFF REMEDY is in no sense a patient medicine, but is a legitimate practitioner and the outcome of years of study, education and experiment by Prof. Hum, emeritus the worlds leading physicians.
