VOLUME XXXIV Collects 559 Per Cent Wins Agents Contest Collects 559 Per Cent Wins Agents Contest AGENT NATHAN ROBERTS CARRIES OFF FIRST HONORS Probably Establishes Record For Weekly Collections In the weekly collections consist held by the agents of the Natham Mutual Health and Life Insurance Company, September 14, first honors were carried by Mr. Nathan Roberts whose total collections for the week amounted to $702.05, a return of 59 per cent. on his debit which is $25.65. So far as the Tribune has been able to ascertain, Mr. Roberts in making this large collection has established a record for his debit collections, which stands above any ever collected in this city and, perhaps, is the biggest percentage collection ever made in the state. The contest, as is seen by the following weekly collections, was easily won by Mr. Roberts, his nearest compedi tor being Mr. M. G. Graham with a collection which ran $253.20 behind the winner. This is the first big debit contest held by this company which is but a little over two years old. The company now has a weekly debit of over $1,500.00 and operates in ten cities of the state with Savannah as headquarters and Atlanta as the next largest office. It employs about fifty persons in its agents and clerical force, has nine thousand policy-holders who carry $331,925.00 worth of insurance with the company. The president of the company and all other officers, are prominent local men. The collections of the local office force for the week of the contest were as follows: Debit Col P. C. N. Roberts .....$125.65 $702.05 559 M. G. Graham .....117.40 448.85 382 T. H. Hamilton .....115.00 260.00 226 D. L. Kelly .....91.25 178.50 195 L. Owens .....75.55 150.75 190 E.

BOYS MAY HAVE ENTER SCHOOL EARLY In Order to be Inducted into the Student Army Training Corps Atlanta, September 17-The Student Army Training Corps is in two units, the college unit and the vocational unit. Students will be admitted to the college unit only if they have satisfactorily completed 13 units of high school work, or its equivalent. In most cases Atlanta-University will have to determine their qualification in, high, school units by an examination. The vocational unit is open to all young men of high school classification, 18 years old or older, who are regularly enrolled students of Atlanta University. Students qualified will be inducted into the vocational unit upon their voluntary request. There will be an opportunity for high school students of draft age to continue their regular program of high school studies until they are drafted or there will be opportunity for such students voluntarily to apply for induction in to the vocational unit of the Student Army Training Corps. Students inducted into the vocational unit will become soldiers in the Atlanta University Training Detachment as now organized at the institution, and after two months intensive vocational training they will leave Atlanta University as regular soldiers for service in the field or overseas. Probably the first opportunity for induction of high school students into the student army training corps vocational unit will be with the new detachment which comes on November 1st. They will then be supplied with necessary clothing and equipment and for the two months training receive $30 a month, then pay of a regular private in the regular army. There is a possibility that college boys will be asked to return to Atlanta University two weeks before the postponed opening of school in order to be inducted into the college unit of the student army training corps. If so, notices will be sent out in a few days. Services tomorrow at New Era Baptist mission, 1212 Cuyler St. Lic. Lee Gilmore in charge: Prayer meeting, 6 a. m., preaching 11 a. m. and 8:30 p. m.

TYLER, WAR CORRESPONDENT TO SEND OVER NEWS OF NEGRO TROOPS Appointment Result of Editors' Conference-- Will Be On Gen. Pershing's Staff ```markdown ``` 1st. Lieut. C. C. Middleton, of this city, who is now serving with an artillery regiment in France. Washington, D. C., Sept. 16 Two notable additions have been made within the past few days to the list of big achievements that may be justly credited to the influence of the recent conference of colored elitists and leaders in Washington. One of the direct requests of the editors' conference in June, was that a reliable colored news-writer be sent to France to report the doings of the colored troops on the western front in France, for the information of the anxious millions of the colored Americans in this country and to the end that the correct story of the valor and patriotic devotion of their brethren might be told fully-and in a sympathetic vein by one of their own blood and kindred. In compliance with this request the committee on public information has designated Ralph W. Tyler, of Columbus, Ohio former auditor for the navy department at Washington, as a regularly-commissioned war correspondent, to specialize on conditions surrounding the colored troops in France and to make daily reports on the activities and engagements in which the colored soldiers are prominent. He will be on the staff of General Pershing, commander in-chief of the American Expedi- 1st. Lieut. C. C. Middleton, of an artillery regiment tionary forces overseas. Every facility has been provided by Mr. George Creel, director of the committee on public information for the prompt and accurate gathering of all facts that may be of interest to the colored people. Mr. Tyler is the first colored man named as a regular war correspondent by any government in the world. He is a native of Ohio. For seventeen years he served in various departments on the Columbus Evening Dispatch and the Ohio State Journal, which gave him experience in the technique of newspaper craft and afforded him opportunity for association with many influential newspaper men. This intimate contact with such forces will be invaluable to him in his labors as a war correspondent. The fact that he has a wide acquaintance with correspondents now at the front, will make it possible for him to get news concerning colored troops which, perhaps, no other colored correspondent could secure. The claims of a number of men were fully considered in connection with this important assignment, but Mr. Tyler was finally selected as the most efficient of those available. Immediately after war was declared by the United States on Germany, Mr. Tyler wrote the President, tendering his services in any capacity. He has three sons, all of whom are at the front in France. The second of this series of editorial conference achievements is the authorization by the government of a loan of $5,000,000 to the Republic of Liberia, in line with the request of the conference. This fund is allotted to aid in the rehabilitation of that country's public finances, which have been reduced to a very low ebb by the cessation of trade, and to develop productio of rice and other foodstuffs for the allies, as well as to place on the market many of the greatly needed products with which the little overseas republic abounds. Much of Liberia's commerce was with Germany, and this has been totally cut off since the former's declaration of war against the Teutons. The granting of this $5,000,000 credit through the United States treasury had its inception several months ago when Dr. Ernest Lyons, the Liberian consul general, made application on behalf of his government for same, and was helped forward quite perceptibly by a meeting at the White House later when a committee laid before the President th peculiar needs of Liberia, and made plain the faithfulness of her people to the cause of the allies, emphasizing the fact that Liberia is the natural ward of this powerful government and that its welfare must be safeguarded by America in her hour of peril. of this city, who is now serving with ent in France. The members of the committee who joined in the appeal to the President were Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute; Emmett J. Scott, secretary of Tuskegee and now serving as special assistant to the secretary of war; Dr. Ernest Lyons, former United States minister to Liberia and now Liberian consul general in this country; Dr. James H. Dillard, of the Slater and Jeanes Fund boards; Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, of the United States bureau of education; and Hon. William H. Lewis, former assistant attorney general of the United States. MECHANICS BANK DOING GOOD BUSINESS The Mechanics Savings Banks, one of the three Negro banking institutions of the city, is doing a thriving business and adding daily to ts large list of depositors. It has a capital stock of $25,000 and its directing board is composed of some of the most sub stantial business men of the city. The institution has recently secured the services of Mr. S. A. anrGt as cashier and under his management the business has taken on new life. One of the features of the business which is now bing pushed forward with vigor is that of the building and loan department. An added department is that which was recently put into operation for caring for rentals. This department is under Mr. J. W. Welcher. TOMMY BROWN 2nd. Lieut. Aiken A. Pope, an Augusta boy, well known in this city where he taught at the Ga. State College. Was Wealthiest Negro in Glynn County Brunswick,—Mr. Jackson Sheffield, one of the best known and wealthiest Negroes of this section of the state, was instantly killed in his automobile Friday afternoon about 4 o'clock as and his wife were riding, the machine colliding with an outgoing Atlantic Coast line passenger train at the ball park street crossing on Norwich street. Mr. Sheffield was instantly killed while his wife who was occupying the front seat, escaped death with injuries not yet ascertained. According to eye witnesses, Mr. Sheffield no doubt would have saved his life had any signal been given of the approach of the onrushing train which it is stated was running twenty minutes late. Mr. Sheffield was headed north out Norwich street. The train was rounding the curve by the ball park and could not be seen by him until it was right on the car. The engine plowed through the car and completely demolished it. Mrs. Sheffield was knocked out of the car, clear of the path of the speeding train and when picked up was seemingly not seriously injured. Mr. Sheffield was injured in several places, the injury causing his death being just above his heart. He too was thrown out of the car by the impact and when he was picked up life was extinct. His body was carried to the undertaking establishment of John Byrd. Mrs. Sheffield was rushed to the home of her daughter, Mrs. Chas. T. Hoskins, on Gloucester street. Mr. Sheffield was the most prosperous Negro in Glynn county. He owned a large and beautiful home near Everett City, several thousand acres of land being in the tract. He also owned much other real estate in the city and county.' He was unusually popular among his people and had scores of friends among the people of the city and county. people of the city and county. Mr. Sheffield was born in Everett City, October 26, 1864. He married Miss Carrie Williams, of Wareboro, Ga., thirty-six years ago. Aside from his wife, he is survived by one daughter, Mrs. Chas. F. Hoskins of this city and I Corpl. Joseph S. Barnes, son of Mrs. H.-T. Lockhart, 918 Wolf street, who is now serving the colors in France. NUMBER 2 N. A. A. C. P. To Hold Big Meeting N. A. A. C. P. To Hold Big Meeting SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 29TH. AT THE MASONIC TEMPLE. Sunday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock, September 24th, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People will hold a large meeting at the Masonic Temple. The acute labor situation will be dealt with by the speakers, and various phases of the social and economic relations of the colored people to the great war will be discussed. It is expected that the meeting will be full of interest because of the work card system recently introduced in Savannah and because of the unusual amount of racial friction which has resulted in Savannah from the shipyard workers who have come to this city within the past few months. Dr. C. Max Manning of the A. M. E. church, a man of wide travel and experience, will be among the speakers, as will also Rev. W. W. Warthen and Prof. Henry Pearson of the Ga. State College There will doubtless be a large crowd of men at the meeting, due to the fact that the shipyard workers, the longshoremen and dock workers' organizations have been invited to come out. The public, too, men and women, will be vitally interested in the good advice and directions which will come out of the live issues which concern the people so seriously. A feature of the meeting will be the excellent musical program which will be rendered by local soloists and musical organizations.

A candidate who apparently stands well in the community receives a black ball immediately there is a cry of prejudice or personal animosity at the bottom of the rejection. Some times this is unfortunately true, but more often it is not. Some men lead double lives. To the world they appear honorable and upright, but in their secret lives they are guilty of wrong and immorality. The worldis ignorant of their sins or folly, but occasionally one or two persons suspect their secret guilt. A true Mason does not care to expose a fellow man unless it is necessary. But he deems it his duty to cast a black ballagainst the offender, and thus save his lodge and aMsonry from disgrace. The secrecy of the ballot is iniolable. No Mason can be on should be questioned as to his motive or reasons for casting a black ball. It is better that a mistake should be made occasionally against a worthy brother, than that an unworthy applicant should be admitted. Justice will triumph in the end, and a worthy candidate who is rejected will ultimately be admitted. Let us jealously guard the secrecy and sacredness of the ballot box. We are indebted for clubs of subscribers to Brother Boyce Davis, Porterdale, Brother G. W. Patrick, Locust Grove, Brother W. F. Woodliff, Atlanta. Brother A. E. Cobb, Wellburn, Fla.:-We enjoy the monthly vis its of your most excellent magazine. Surely the Masonic Herald is doing a grand work for Masonry." SETTLE ALL DIFFERENCES A valued authority makes the statement that Masonry is amply able to settle every question and settle it right,and it is to be hoped that this high principle will grow in the minds of those who have differences to adjust. Whenever the Masonic way is not appealed to it should be the privilege of the officers and members to urge discussion, counsel and arbitration within the lodge. Where can a brother obtain a more unprejudiced hearing and decision than by those bound by most solemn obligations to protect and assist? Think what a solid and harmonious front all Masons would present to the world at large if never an inkling of fraternal dissension leaked out. In the well regulated family, gossip, scandal, and differences are confined within the home circle, and there remedied, or at least protected, from the harsh, exaggerated treatment of careless if not vicious meddlers who always magnify a molehill into a mountain. So let us work for and hasten the day when petty differences, neighborly disaffection or involved legal questions shall be adjusted by Masons among them selves. Otherwise we surely will bring disrepute if not contempt upon the institution—Masonic Chronicler. What Is Freemasonry?

ANSWERING THE LAST DRAFT The most recent draft is going to be a more serious matter, in every aspect, than the several former ones, because as a general proposition it is going to take away a greater proportion of the directing heads of our civil life and affairs. Most men above thirty-one years of age have acquired more or less of responsibility which cannot easily be laid aside. Most of them have families, most of the have dependents and most of them have established business connections which they cannot quit or sever without shoch. Men without responsibility and without connections, of this age, will be scarce. Dut those constitute part of the reserve forces of the nation; the nation seeds them, and many of them must answer the call of duty. Local and district exemption boards are going to have a big, job passing on the merits of varying appeals for deferred classification and hence will have a graver responsibility, themselves, than formerly. It will, therefore, be well for all parties to be duly conscientious in the discharge of this sued citizenship duty in order that as little rupture and wrong as may be shall be avoided. Good men and strong men, the members of these boards must be, in all cases. We do not anticipate any very serious trouble from the classifications, if only justice shall govern all decisions, but we know that any wavering from justice will bring more serious firm than could have resulted in the first draft in those few cases where local boards failed of their duty. It is important then, that all those who are embraced in this draft, shall also be well informed of their duties and rights, so as to facilitate the just operation and execution of the measure. Any uncertainty or misunderstanding of the provisions of the draft, would be referred to the various local lands in time to insure even justice and protection; and in all events, there would be no evasions or shirking. The government, cognizant of all the conditions surrounding the matter, is going to do everything in its power to execute the matter equitably to all parties and to cause as little disturbance in domestic affairs as is possible under the circumstances. It is necessary also for all citizens to join the execution of the government's It has occurred to us that it would be a good thing for the colored people we had representation on both the local and district exemption boards, and certainly on the district board where most appeals from classification are decided. This comes to mind because of the following facts: (a) Half of the registrants are Negroes, and it would seem that they are entitled to ive their cases passed upon by a card which included at least one colored citizen; (b) A competent Negro citizen would most likely know the merits of Negro cases infinitely better than any white man could possibly now them. for the very reason that 19 life is lived among his own people. ) The classes affected by this draft make the problem of "dependency" mostly more important than in the form drafts, and this problem is more serious among Negroes than among any her peoples; (d) The appointment of Negro representative would absolute preclude the suspicion of partiality and would insure full information on doubtful points in Negro cases; (e) It would be a deserved recognition of the good faith, loyalty and patriotic services rendered by colored people in His crisis. We hope, now that the district board has resigned, that in the new commi place will be made for one or two colored men on the committee which to be charged with this maater which is as vital to colored people as to whites. We feel that the local boards THE BOSTON EDITOR M. G. Graham, second winner in Chatham Mutual insurance company's contest. for Chatham county should be interested in the matter in view of the great number of colored people to be affected by it. We have some good men, competent, honorable and with a just conception of citizenship duty, who could well perform this service. There can be no denial of the many strong reasons why such representation should be had, and we trust that the matter will be promptly taken up by the citizens of this city, endorsed by the local boards, and brought about. It would smack of "democracy and representative government." Augusta, Md., Sept. 16—Maine is this year more than ever the political barometer of the nation. Local issues were largely eliminated in the election and the national issues were paramount. Therefore, the result in Maine may be accepted as a definite forecast of the national political feeling. And the result in Maine on September 9th, was a clean sweep of all tickets by the Republicans. The cmopleate (but unofficial) returns show that the Republic candidate for United States Senator, Bert M. Fernald, was re-elected by a majority of 13,674, out of a total vote of 120,-252. This is a net increase in plurality of 556 over the 1916 returns, despite the fact that the total 1916 vote was 149,520, or 29,270 more than the total vote of 1918. The Republicans elected all four of their candidates for Congress by hand some majorities, thus giving Maine a solid Republican delegation in Congress. The most notable victory of the election was that of Wallace H. White, Jr., Republican candidate for Congress in the second district. His opponent was Daniel J. McGillicuddy, Democrat. This district was democratic in 1912 and 1914, and two years ago, with the same two candidates. Mr. White was elected, with a plurality of only 547. This year he increased this plurality over McGillicuddy to the very substantial figure of 2,854. On the state ticket the results were no less a victory for the Republicans. They re-elected a Republican governor, Carl R. Milliken, and they increased the Republican majority in the state senate by four and the Republican majority in the lower House of the State Legislature by fourteen. The vote of the legislature, as a result of this election, now stands: Senate, Republicans, 30; Democrats, 1. House, Republicans, 112; Democrats, 39. Three facts stand out in this result: First: The decisive defeat of a popular Democrat in a district normally Democratic, and one in which there was a large number of government employed labor votes. Second: The re-election of a governor for the first time in many terms, it having been 12 years since Maine allowed any governor, Republican or Democratic, to succeed himself. Third: The decisive refutation by the voters of the Democratic cry that a Republican victory would please Ber (Continued from page 1) four brothers, Messre.

CERTONE TABLETS will work wondrous change in your appearance. You can then "chuck" the padded clothes that so unsuccessfully tried to fill out those humiliating hollows so characteristic of the thin and scraggly frame.

Conquered STORM AT THE RECTORY On Monday night of last week Father and Mrs. Brown of St. Augustine's Episcopal church received the fright of their lives, while sleeping and dreaming of the great beyond. A tremendous noise and knocking around the house, brought them suddenly from dreamland. Father Brown hung back, but the brave wife rushed to the door only to find Mr. R. H. Blyler and son, Paul, seeking admission, and before they were seated in rushed a host of people with baskets, boxes and packages of all descriptions, filled to overflowing with all the delicacies of the season. After dispositing their luggage on the desks, tables and chairs in the dining room, the senior warden presented Father Brown with a purse as a token of the high regard in which he is held by the members. Those in the party were: Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Brown, Dr. C. and Brent, Mr. and Mrs. L. M. Geiger, Mr. and Mrs. Stevens, Misses C. E. and E. Toomer, Miss Naomi Johnson, Mrs. M. E. Dukes, Mr. and Mrs. H.

A veteran business man, who was almost completely bald and had tried numerous tonics, lotlons, 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 possessed. 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, Kotalka, 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., of no avail in such cases. The Indians' ointment-nourishes the hair and stimulates the growth. Kotahai fertilizes the scalp and induces hair growth in every case possible; wonderful results reported. For men's women's and children's hair. If you are bald, or losing hair, or have dandruff, you should try Kotahai. It is a pleasure to observe the starting of new hair and its steady increase until a prolific growth supersedes thin hair or baldness. Cut out this notice; show to others who want beautiful hair. The recipe is free. This is genuine. lot in Gann Park for $250.00 cash in all cases. Owner needs the money. G. H. Bowen, 458, W. Broad street. Cut Out the jumps! Have you the same—or other manifestations of new illness? Are you easily confused or afraid it is expected noises or noises? 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 later the offender through that great-recervatory 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 sollend formula. U. S. G. L. A.

This is not death, it is but a struggle ended, A ransomed soul in bonds, refused to keep, An unseen angel to its aid descended, And now God gives His beloved sleep. Then, Father, rest, nay, never more shall grieve thee. Our hearts are sad, indeed, today, The fills that made you sigh and weep. And till the day dawn, with the Lord we leave thee. Our tears we cannot stay, For it is just twenty-three years ago today Since our dear father passed away, Not lost, blest hope, but gone on before Where we meet to part no mord, Where we will meet on brighter shore And will live together with Jesus. The Lord took you from us, It was His holy will, And left a vacancy in our hearts Which no one can fill. But in our saddest moments, One happy thought holds still, We will meet you, dear father, And be happy, some sweet day. Sadly missed by his wife and children.

The reporter received a whining, nameless note through the postoffice this week. The English and spelling were so poor that it could hardly be understood.

There is a decent way to get at most anything.

In several cities the boys made life miserable for motorists who failed to do their duty. In some instances, where automobilists ignored the request and displayed flags on their machines, these emblems were removed, with the contention that anyone who so failed in their patriotic duty had no right to display the flag. In many places the police took a hand by requiring all motorists to explain their purpose for using cars on Sunday. The newspapers led in public opinion by the manner with which, without exception, they criticized those who used their cars. PRESIDENT WILSON RIGHT ON MOB-CONTROL Nottoway, Va.-The President in his recent address on mob violence, calls on "the men and women of every community" to help "make an end to this disgraceful evil," which, he says, "cannot live where the community does not countenance it." Nottoway demonstrated this fact some time ago. A Negro was captured after a crime so atrocious that a lynching seemed inevitable without outside help; and the authorities wired the governor for troops. Before he could send them the leading citizens met. They wired the governor their pledge to uphold the law and secure for the Negro a fair trial. No troops were sent; and the citizens protected the accused in jail and at the trial. He was proved guilty and legally executed. Her own loyal and determined citizens saved Nottoway from disgrace. The President is right: mob violence "cannot live where the community does not countenance it." "Therefore, Be It Resolved: That the Executive Board, Georgia Division Woman's Committee Council of National Defense, congratulate the colored people of our state upon so excellent a showing of Americanism upon the part of their race; and that this board offers to any organizations of colored women in Gerrgia who may express a desire for them to the chairman, such instuctions for war work among women as may come to this committee from Washington." Atlanta, Augusta and other cities are already cooperating with the colored women in war work; and some notable things are being accomplished.
