ORDER GOES INTO EFFECT TO
DAY AT NOON
Closing Order Does Not Pertain To Open Air Meetings
By order of the city sanitary board all public gatherings in motion picture and other theatres, churches, schools, kindergartens and halls will be discontinued today at 12 noon. It was the desire of the city health officer, Dr. W. F. Brunner that the order go into effect yesterday, but the ennop suppns eq airoaq oapou board felt it wise to give some little order is caused by the appearance here of Spanish influenza, the disease which now has the entire country in its grip and which has resulted in nearly every other city already taking the same steps which will be the means, ofcourse, that there will be no churches open tomorrow and they will remain closed until further notice from the city sanitary board.
The public schools and also the private schools closed down yesterday. There have been several cases of the disease to appear here, but as yet only a few deaths resulting from it, they being persons who have come here with the disease.
WORK OF HOME DEMONSTRATOR FOR PAST YEAR
Miss Juanila Conyers Does Splendid and Effective Work
Miss Juanita II. V. Conyers, home demonstration agent for Chatham county, has done excellent work during the past year, as is shown in her report to Supt. of Public Schools Carlton B. Gibson for the year ending Sept. 1st, last. Miss Conyers' work has been of inestimable value to this community and many of the improvements noted in the surrounding rural districts are easily traceable to her efforts. Among other things of interest, her report shows the number of canning clubs in the community to be 10 with a total membership of 280 persons. In the whitewash campaign she shows that 20 houses in her district were done over. The report further shows the following: Number of articles written for publication, 795; meetings held, by agent, 989; total attendance at meetings, 76,838; visits made to club members, 495; visits made to schools, 784; demonstrations in canning, 1,962 and in making war bread, 362; miles traveled by rail, 19,870, by auto, 36,842, by team, 784; total number of jars of fruit and vegetables put up by her members at public demonstrations, 4,384
Canning clubs have been organized at Fort Argyle, Burroughs, Sacksville, Woodville, Rose Dhu, Bonaventure and the community near the Bar stow school. There were two clubs already in the county., at Monteith and White Bluff which were organized by Agent E. A. Williams. These two clubs for canning outfits was $120.00 but the other eight bought them this summer. The amount spent by the clubs for canning outfitswas $120.00 for machings and $284.26 for jars. The amount of fruit and vegetables canned up to date averages from 175 to 250 quarts for each member.
In ending her report, Miss Conyers recommends that cooking be taught in the rural schools and especially in the rural homes, suggesting that the teacher of the rural school be given special days to go into the homes of her pupils and instruct in cooking. She also spoke of Garden day at the Cuyler Junior High School, June 14, which was participated in by twelve schools and which was attended by several thousand persons. Miss Conyers was the prime mover of this celebration which will be an annual affair.

SAVANNAH, GEORGIA,
Race Congress Calls At White House
PRESIDENT WILSON CORDIALLY
RECEIVES DELEGATION
OF NEGROES
The President Promises To Do His
Utmost To Remedy Complaints
The most encouraging and most helpful incident in the history of the race ful incident in the history of the race for many years was the cordial reception and democratic expressions of the President of the United States when he received the delegates to the Negro Race Congress sitting in Washington, D. C., October 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, 1918.
The delegation was led by Rev. W. H. Jernigin, D. D., Washington, D. C., president, and Bishop I. N. Ross, vice president, also of Washington, into the White House. Promptly at 4:30 p. m., the secretary to the president, Mr. Tumulty, advised the delegation that the chief executive was ready for the reception, whereupon the delegation walked in and stood in a crescent about the president. Judge William Harrison of Chicago, Ill., was introduced to the president by the Rev. W. H. Jernigin as spokesman. Judge Harrison asked the president's (Continued on page four)
News From Valdosta
News From Valdosta
(By R. R. Mobley)
We are now with The Savannah Tribune and hope to place our city and county on the map again, and we can do so by your co-operation. It takes money to operate a newspaper, so you see we desire to get as many readers for the paper as possible in this city and vicinity, even more than we had for the Standard. The Savannah Tribune is one of the oldest papers in the state and it has held its own in the forward progress of the race. It is one of the few in Georgia or the south that has a linotype machine. So you see they are in position to give you all first class news direct from the reporters to the editors and thence to the people. So when you read the Savannah Tribune, you are reading news that is direct from the press and has not been going its rounds before getting to you. Its editor is a man that has his own way of thinking in a fearless strain for the uplift of our people. We shall in the future keep our people here informed with the doings of our city and shall ask your aid by giving us the news of interest. We shall ask, you to subscribe for the paper and give us your job work as we are in position to do, first class work on short notice. The slur in reference to colored women alleged to have been made by some Negro soldier in Jacksonville, is an insult to the race, if same is true. Negro men and every other kind of man should know that Negro women have no more right to work than any other women unless we would like to know if Negro women remain home, prepare meals for the family, wash and mend the clothes for the children, raise chickens and vegetables, whether they are working or not? It is getting time for the Negro man to love and respect his wife as others respect theirs.
It is the duty of every colored person in the city to purchase a Fourth Liberty Bond, that is able to do so. We must do our share as citizens and hold up the boys who are fighting for us in the trenches.
It is quite a worry to some people the money our women are getting from their sons and husbands thru the government. Our advice to them would be to spend it wisely. Buy a home with it, use it to educate your children and put away a little each month for the proverbial rainy days. The rural schools of Lowndes county opened on the 7th. It is the duty of the patrons in each community to send their children to school at the beginning of the term: Miss Aurelia Hudson, who has been spending the summer with her aunt in Philadelphia, returned last week the city.
Missress Nellie Lee Scott and Verdelle Stevens left last Monday to enter Spellman Seminary in Atlanta.
Miss Sarah Lomex, a graduate of Central City College left Tuesday to accept a position there as teacher.

Atlanta University Postpones Opening
DEFERRED OPENING CAUSED BY APPEARANCE OF SPANISH INFLUENZA IN CITY
Boarding Students Advised Not To Return Until Notified
Atlanta, Oct. Sth—The closing of the city schools here on account of the Spanish influenza has made it seem wise to postpone the opening of Atlanta University until further notice. This applies also to the Oglethorpe Practice School. It is not felt that the Atlanta situation is alarming or that there will be any great delay. The boarding student of the Univer sity have been advised not to report, until further notified.
This, however, does not apply to candidates for the Student Army Training Corps either Section A or Section B. All Atlanta University students who plan to return in order to be inducted into the army should do so. The soldiers are under the constant care of the resident physician and health conditions are excellent. The barracks are nearing completion and it is expected that the soldiers of the Student Army Training Corps, Section B, who are now occupying the dormitory, will move to the new barracks early next week.
A special order has come from Washington announcing that Lieutenant Joseph Scott, who was at the Howard University camp during the summer, has been appointed officer in command of the S. A. T. C. at Atlanta University and Morehouse College. Until Major Cook is transferred he remains officer in command of the post.
President Ware has been away on a two weeks' trip to Boston, Mass., in conference with the trustees regarding the war work at Altanta University. He returned last week Tuesday and brought with him Mr. Carlson of the Boston firm of Coolidge Carlson, architects. Mr. Carlson spent three days in looking over the plans for the barracks and will carry back to the trustees an encouraging account of progress.
Miss Clara Plummer of Pendergrast street, died of Influchza and was buried from Antipch church Sunday, Rev. A. R. Starling officiating.
The schools of the city turned out in full force to see Ringling Bros. circus.
Those who are kind enough to hand us news items will please note that they will have to be in our hands by Monday night to insure their publication that week.
The colored bank is gradually and substantially winning its way in the hearts of the people. Why not? With a backing of a half million dollars it at once becomes one of the leading financial institutions in the state. The Negro Business League and the N. A. A. C. P. have made this bank their depositories. The president is considering putting on a special day for children to open accounts, beginning with one dollar.
The president, S. D. Cotterel, is expecting a full attendance of the local branch of the Negro Business League on the 16th, of the month. Mr. C. Gaines of the program committee, promises an interesting and profitable evening. The local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. fully decided in its last meeting to use the six subjects as sent out by the New York headquarters, one to be discussed each month beginning with November 23. There will be other literary features. The next meeting will be held at Mt. Zlon A. M. E. church at which a large attendance is looked for by President H. H. Thweatt.
sity training camp this summer, left Tuesday f or the Ga. State College He will begin as the military trainer of the boys who enter that school. Mrs. Sylvia A. Mobley has accepted the school at Hahira, as principal, and will begin there next Monday. Rev. B. S. Hannah, pastor of St. Paul church, is rounding up his mem bers for the annual conference. Rev. Hannah has made a splendid record here, raising over thirteen hundred dollars and thereby freeing the church from indebtedness and having the parsonage recovered and a fresh coat of paint put on.

Began .Examining Registrants This Week Early
Dr. C. B. Tyson and Dr. O. C. Clay-born were sworn in Friday of last week as medical examiners for the Eatside draft board. With Dr. W. A. Harris who was appointed to a similar position with the Westside board about a month ago, they are the only Negro physicians in the state to be appointed to such positions and there selection is one which should carry with it much appreciation by the Negroes of this city. It is a well deserved compliment to the Negro medical profession in this city.
Both Dr. Tyson and Dr. Clayborn are among the leading Negro physicians of the city. The are both graduates of Meharry MedicalCollege and fully capable of the new duties that are entrusted to them by the local darft board. Dr. Tyson is a native practicing here about twenty years. Dr. Clayborn is a native of Birmingham, Ala., and has practiced in this city for the past five years.
A large and appreciative congregation attended the fifth anniversary of the rectorship of Rev. J. L. Taylor, of St. Stephen's Episcopal church Sunday, October 6th. The rector preached the anniversary sermon from Phil. 1:21, and administered holy communion to a large number of persons. Miss Annie Scott was presented and spoke in behalf of Liberty Bonds. A special program had been prepared for the night service. Two violin solos were rendered by Mr. W. S. C. Peyton, Miss Nettie Houston and Mrs. Maria Jackson also rendering solos. The seaker-of-the occasion was Mr. Paul E. Perry. Mr. D. W. Sherman and Mr. E. H. Abrams spoke on Liberty Bonds. The choir was at its best and added much to the services. The anniversary offering was large and much appreciated. Rev. Taylor will preach a missionary sermon at 11:15 tomorrow.

MUST GO OVER
SMyannan must Durry 2 long in gel
ing its quota of the Fourth Liberty;
Loan. Savannah must not fail to pas
' the $6,000,000 mark set for her, The
money is here, the idle money, ang we
must pay it over, and do so at once,
The Liberty Loan Committee, direct-
ed by Mr. William Murphy for the dis-
trict, and Mr. J. Peace Wheeless fo!
the city and county, have perfected 1
most effective working organization ot
the canvassers and solicitors; ihe.dis-
tricting and suddividing of the work
seems admirable, and we do not doubt
that we shall reach the goal All that
is lacking, is that the rank and file of
the people shall realize the tremendou:
and important issues which are at stake
and the grave, individual responst-
bility which rests upon each of us to
fee that these issues are sustained,
these principles upheld. If all the
people who can and ought to do their
share'will conte forward, we shall suc
ceed.
We must not refpr to responsibili-
ty already undertaken; we must not
remind canvassers that wé have not
paid out our subscription to the Third
Loan. We must subscribe again and
pay out both, Wecan doit A great
many of us have done so already.
Hundreds of men in Savannah,
white and black, can purchase a bond
with their wages of this very week
alone, A great many can buy a hun
dered dollar bond in the course of a
month out of Current wages, and with
out embarrassment.
We are lending the money, and get
ting paid for the lending. We are
not giving. sacrificing, as thousands
‘in Europe have been doing for years,
sfor our safety and protection. We
are merely asked to lend.
+ Colored people,.in the Third joan,
through the Wage Earners Bank,
alone, subscribed for “more than $75—
000 worth of the bonds. In the city
and county at large, it is estimated
they subscribed for $250,000, much of
this being taken at the great indus-
trial plants ahont the city,
A great many have paid for their
bonds; and a great many could have
done xo, who have not.
We urge our people to pay up on
the old, and subsctibe for the new:
and subseribe liberally. Negro ar-
sanizations with idle funds should in
vest heavily. This investment is al
Teady si! ¢?ze1 security, and always:
a bulwark against financial embarr
assent. We should not hesitate,
We fight for Liberty and Democra-
ey. We above all people desire it,
-becatise we need “it most. We must
do everything to see these lofty and
‘ternal privileges established and en
throned. : s
We call upon eyery cotored citizen,
who is well and working, te go up

Here again, we have all the-eléments
of contempt and disregapfytor the
rights of Negro people. {fils case is
rignificant of a greatyeal of the treat
ment meted out to Negro women in
their homes by smart collectors of in-
surance, rent, furniture ‘bills ang the
like. We have even heard that some
Imsinesses seck to employ the rougher
sort of men, because they “get the mon
ey.”
A great deal of this could be avoided
if our people exercised a little
wore precaution in utters of
their bills and instalment accounts.
Many of us could pay our Dills at the
offices of the companies, and thus
avoid the necessity of having these
agents coming around with their curs-
ing and abusive methods.
It is a great deal niore important
to consider a situation of this kind
in the light of its causes than to con-
sider the issues and merits embraced
in any particular case,
Business of all sorts is a competitive
matter. We are at liberty to spend
our money where we may do so most
advantageously, and where it will
bring the largest tnd most satisfac—
tory results. We need not ever spend
it in nfurkets where we must pay it out
through impatient, disrespectfil and
abusive clerks and agents, It would
‘seem to us that reasoning people would
have the good sense and judgment to
be governed in this matter.
We do not suggest’ boycotts; we do
not even believe in them, but we do
believe that individuals should exercise
the necessary discretion in matters
of | this sort, aud we believe that a
great deal of the trouble and friction
in the lines we have here been dis—
cussing, will be avoided.

son. Our blood has been freely given
in all our country’s wars. Hence, we
have earned the right to speak in our
‘own defence if our rights are abridged.
| We aie grateful; Mr. President, for
the fine ideals you have set forth to
America Ging the world; and we are
particularly pleased with your ~pro-
nouncement against mob violence. It
fave encouragement to the heart of
every true American, and is the har
Dinger of hope to all colored men in
the United States. It makes us feel
that the day will come when you may
exercise the fall power delegated to
you. as chief executive of otr nation,
and summon to your aid the full force
of the United States government by
which such lawless acts may. be sup
pressed,
We know that offenses will be com
mittee. We do not coidone crime,
but we ask for our people what Is ac
corded to others: viz, that all individ
uals ‘charged with crime, should be
given. a fair aud impartial trial be a
jury of their peers.
We now bring to your attention Mr.
President, a matter that heads up un-
der .the Interstate Commerce Com-
laws of the Sonthern states prescribe
mission, but which we bring ta you
because relief has not come from that
source. Our people are unfairly treat
passengers on railroads in the South
that “there shall be separate but equai
accommodations for white and colored
passengers on trains.” It is a fact
that while there are separate accom
modations, they are in no sense equal,
The treatment our people receive as
passengers on rafroads in the South,
fs in open violation of the law; it is
unfair, unjust and degrading. There
fore, we heg that you use the authority
of your exalted: office to change these
conditions, making travel equally safe,
comfortable and healthful to all who
ty the same tariff. %
The black soldier fights best when
his mother, wife and sister are not hu
‘millated on the common carriers of his
country because of race prejudice.
Another grievance that is hindering
the war spirit in our race is the fact
that in some of tbe administrative of
fices of the government In Washington
and elsewhere, race discrimination is
nullifying the letter and epirlt of the
Civit Service Isw; and delaying the
winning of the war by depressing the
enthusiasms of the aspiring people of
our race, Our people who aspire to
positions above the menial grade in
some departments, are flatly denied
consideration, and sometimes, if a fatr
Official gives werk to such aspirants
they are marked for insult or humllia
tion by boorish or aiscourteous employ
ees, These discriminations disturh
the morale of our young people and
lower the effigiency of both, the offen
der and the offended.
, This species of prejudice against
race and color, sometimes, nay too of
ten, finds its way into the Army anil
Nav} of the Unifed States.

Miss Marie Elizabeth Blalock, daughter of Mr. D. Blalock of this city, who was married to Mr. James Cohen at the Lawrence A. M. church, Springfield, Mass., Thursday, Sept 26th, by the Rev. A. L. Boulden.
GIVES RECTOR A SURPRISE
A surprise was given Rev. J. L. Taylor and family Tuesday night immediately after a business meeting of the Parish Aid Society. After the rector had said good night, members of St. Stephen's and friends representing other churches came quickly upon the rector and his wife, singing and bringing some of everything good to eat. The rector was so surprised he hid himself behind the door, forgetting his little wife who, of course, found it easy to hide behind almost anything. He did not hide long before a strong man pulled him out saying, "Come and receive this live chicken." Then followed three men with a tremendous grocery wagon which was unloaded by the happy members of the surprising party. After the rector had recovered, he sang "Blest be the ties that bind," and offered prayer. A purse of $22.00 was presented to him by Mrs. C. C. Deveaux. Words of appreciation and thanks were offered on behalf of the vestry by Mr. L. M. Pollard. Heads of all the church societies spoke. Miss A. M. Ellis rendered several selections on the violin, accompanied by Mrs. Edgar Habersham. Refreshments were served. Just as the party was about to say good night, in came a late brother who presented the cause of Liberty Bonds.
AN APPRECIATION ON PART OF THE MINISTER
"We live in deeds not in years; in thoughts not in breaths;
In feelings, not in figures on a dial.
We should count time by heart-throbs.
He most lives, who thinks most, feels the noblest, acts the best."
With the keenest sense of personal unworthiness, I, nevertheless, take these words as in some sort of way descriptive of the influence which these years of my Savannah ministry have made in my life. The years themselves have been few, but the experience they recorded, the joys they have brought, the precious memories of friendship and love they have created, these are the things which no future can destroy. I thank God that has brought us hither, and permitted us to serve Him in this great field of opportunity.
Rev. J. L. Taylor.

COOL DAYS TURN THOUGHTS TO FALL APPAREL
School Openings Bring Back The Vacationists
New York, October 8th—The opening of school marks the return to town of the majority of people. This is of course quite a ceremonious occasion for the children and even for the elder girls who are looking forward to entering high school, boarding or college. There is much to look forward to. So much planning and delightful imaginary things to dream about.
And their clothes are not the least important. These, in fact, come first. But why not? Every school girl likes and enjoys looking her best. The shops have on display many new, smart models that are just the thing for studious days. The utility coat is developed in tweeds of charming colors, and Scotch plaids are in erlence. Plaids are so youthful and are

A Forerunner of the Ankle Length worn to the best advantage when fresh rosy-cheeked Miss appears in a jaunty sports costume of this fabric. Velvets for Dress Wear
Then there are those ever attractive skirts which are box or side pleated. Owing to the fact that this mode affords unlimited comfort, it is a favorite in the wardrobe of all. When recreation hours are nigh, the most appealing thing that one thinks of is velvet. More than ever is this stuff being used because of the government request to conserve wool. Simplicity as usual marks the frock. At an opening of one of our well known schools I saw a particularly nice frock worn by a light haired girl of about twelve years. The dress was black velvet in one piece from shoulder to hem, with a panel at the front and back which extended about three quarter ways down from the neckline. The sleeves three quarter length and cuffs, which turned up, were freed with roosins

egg blue satin. I almost forgot the two little pockets that just perched out in the front panels; these, too, were faced with the satin. This little girl was dressed in perfect taste, and although her hair was just as straight as can be imagined it was done in a very becoming fashion. The front part was combed back off her forehead and caught at the back with a little shell pin. The rest of the locks hung straight down to about her shoulders, trimmed in a nice clean cut fashion, and I assure you that I was very glad of my own.
my eyes on this charming little creature, so naive, yet so full of possibilities. For once the curly haired churn blim seemed to fade in the background while this slight intelligent child was decidedly noticeable and admirable.
With this very personification of good taste was her charming and ultra refined mother. To be sure one who was capable of the careful and neat selection of her daughter's frocks would garb herself in equally good taste. What a pleasing, attractive person she was. Confined, to simplicity was her gown also. Sapphire velvet claimed the design and absolutely refused trimming. The sole relief was the draped collar which stood up in monk like effect and crossed over in front with one side longer than the other. A novelty belt of the same shape was buttoned with two hugh buttons of sapphire colored wool. The skirt was draped and was fully down to the ankles.
Gradually the skirts are coming down until even the walking and sports costumes are flirting danger- ourly with the ground. But they are so graceful that a little comfort will be gladly sacrificed and become a martyr to their cause. Following this course of the trend of gravity we see trains appearing on the evenings. Many women will welcome these back again for they did add so much dignity to the gown.
A rich splendor so truly of the Orient is expressed in many of the materials for evening and more informal wear. The gorgeous colorings that they bring challenge the imagination and bring it into full play. Lucky indeed is the woman who can count on some garment, whether it be evening gown or negligee, developed in these alluring expressions of the imaginative East. For street wear we have here illus trated two good looking models which are true to all the whims of the latest returns from Paris designers. The braid trimming on the suit is a feature worthy of note.
Do it now! Remember this is war. Order your clothes from the STAR TAILORS, 461 West Broad street.

NEW YORK NEGROES AGAIN WIN
PRAISE OF FRENCH OFFICERS
Wait With Nerve Unshaken For The
Enemy Attack and Then Sent Him
Sentfling Back
WITH THE AMERICAN FORCES IN FRANCE, Aug. 31.—There is a certain Negro regiment over here in France to whom, were they to march down Fifth Avenue today, every hour in New York would be off. They can constitute the first Negro force Uncle Sam has sent to the European battlefields. Today many thousands of their race have donned the uniform of their country and been ferried across the Atlantic. But to the first outfit that came be longs the glory of proving that New York Negroes can fight as ably valiantly for democracy as their white comrades.
What the Colonel Thinks
I asked the regimental commander, whom New York remembers best as a Public Service Commissioner, what he thought of his men. (Col. William Haywood, commander of the old 15th, N. G., N. Y., was formerly a Public Service Commissioner.)
"What I have always thought," he said with a contented grin. "that they're just as good soldier material as the United States can produce. I guess a good many others take the same view now, after the regiment's showing in the offensive of July 15. There were bonbusters, even in the hegiment. Lots of people thought the Negro would flinch under heavy shelling or under gas or when the Boche bayonets were tickling his ribs.
"Well, since July 15, my boys have endured what the French say is the most colossal artillery preparation the Germans have ever made, all kinds of gas, bayonets by the thousands and every other kind of punishment that the enemy has in stock. They've stood up under it all, done everything that was demanded of them—a good deal sometimes, too—and come through with colors flying and spirits high. I don't believe there are many better soldiers in the war than these Negro boys. I haven't seen any."
"The colonel picked up a sheet of paper from the bare kitchen table that served him as a desk.
"This is a list of officers and men des-
cruted with the Croix of Guerre for cop-
spenours galantry in the recent fight-
ing" he said. "Perhaps foiks back
home would like to know how many No-
zero here New York can produce."
The winners of the War Cross are as follows:
Sergt. Daniel W. Lewis, William But-
ler, Charley Rick, Robert Collins;
Corp't. Fletcher Bartles; Privates Gil-
bert Johnson, Lionel Rogers, George
Chapman, Samuel Jackson, Arthur Sim-
son, Morris Link, Marshall Scott and
George E. Hannibal; Capt Clas, E.
Filmore.
The following white officers were also decorated by the French:
Capts. Samuel Sheffield; John 0.
Ontwater and J. D. Whit; and Lieuts.
A. D. Wharsham (killed), John C.
Bradnor, Harold M. Landon, G. R.
Jones, William H. Keenan, P. M. Clem
denn and R. W. Roland.
Not until the night of June 12 did they receive a real "straffling" at the enemy's hands. On that night the Boche launched the "Million Dollar Raid," as the Negroes call it, one of them having figured that amount as the cost of the shells used in the preparation fire. On one company front, in the Hanzy Wood, forty-five Krupp 77's and fifteen 150's, besides an uncounted array of trench mortars and minerwerfer, viciously tore into the Negroes' defences.
The bombardment lasted about two hours. When the Roche raiding column followed their barrage across no man's land they doubtless expected to find a dazed and terror stricken bunch of men utterly bereft of the fighting spirit. Instead they ran up against a line of riflemen and grenade throwers co-operating with a score of hidden machine guns to build a wall of bullets between the foe and his objective.
A Daring Sergeant
Capt. L. B. Shaw got the Croix de Guerre on account of those machine guns. He had planted them in cam outflaged vantage points so skillfully the foe was unaware of their existence, and hence failed to have his artillery seek them out. Because of them, the gray green raiders never reached the American trenches. At one point, where they came within a few yards, Serget. Robert Collins leaped up on the trench parapet and pumped lead from his automatic rifle into them at point blank range, with German grenades bursting unpleasantly close to him. The sergeant claims one of his reasons for thus exposing himself was a craving, to get a good view of the fight.
"I thought the shells had messed us up a good deal," he said afterward, "but, man, you should've seen what we done to them. Say, when our machine guns got through with 'em, they looked like a bunch of Swiss cheese."
The Negroes coolness under this bomb bardment convinced the French higher command of their soldierly ability. French officers with whom I talked were delighted with them. One told me how he himself had seen a German land torpedo explode right under the nose of two Negroes in an advanced post, burying them under an avalanche of mud. The pair wriggled out and though both were slightly wounded, remained where they were.
"Myself. I should have probably made a strategic retirement to a safer suit." the Frenchman added with a smile.
"Theins lit up the whole country side like a star shell," he told me. At 11 p.m. French counter preparation fire began, to be followed by the German destructive bombardment at midnight. For four hours Krupp guns o every calibre plastered hundreds of square miles of front with

Dear Tit:—
I received your letter a few days ago, and was real glad to hear from you, and to know that you all are well. I am getting along all right. I am picking up right along at this camp, it seems to agree with me. The weather here is just about like it is home, except the nights are cooler. It is raining today. I am getting ready to go for the mail now. I hope to get a letter from you all in this mall. Say, I wish you would tell "Caiser" that if he doesn't hurry and write me I'll give him duds when I come home. I dreamed about you all last night while I was very highly enjoyed, according to barracks, but camp out in tents some times. I enjoy it very much, for you know I always was bughouse about fresh air. Say. I had a very interesting trip last Sunday. The vaudeville company that I told you about went up to give a show for some Polish solders. We went in a truck and passed through many quaint old French towns. We had our pictures taken four times, had a fine dinner and gave a show that was very highly enjoyed, according to all who witnessed it. I saw a statue of Napoleon and saw a castle he once stayed at. I have a picture of both of them and hope to be able to show them to you some day. Oh, yes! You asked me what I wanted for my birthday. Well, about the only thing they will let you send me is some magazines and papers; so send me some "All Story Cavaliers," "Argossy" and Muncey's magazines and some funny papers. It doesn't make any difference whether they are new or not, so long as they were issued since February. Tell Feat I received her card and will write her soon. How are all the Browns? Give my love to Lucille and all the other "Fair Browns." Kiss mamma for me and all the children. Tell them I'll write soon, Well, bye bye and don't forget to write every week.
With much love. I am lovingly Your brother
Just received your letter today, written August 10th. There is no need to say how glad I was to get it. Now, naturally you would want to know where I am. Well, you know I can't tell you that definitely. (just as you said in your letter) but I will say that we are occupying our sector in the front lines, and where we are things are pretty lively indeed.
high explosive, gas and shrapnel. Nothing more stupendous than that shelling could be conceived by the mind of man, to quote a French staff officer who had been at Verdun and the Somme.
Our Negroes stuck tight. Whether they were in well built dugouts or out in open trenches, they never quailed. In the midst of the bombardment the lieutenant colonel was asked by the French whether he could establish some sort of communication with the French regiment on his right. Its wires had been cut and its position was such it was impossible to get messages back to divisional headquarters with sufficient speed. Without even calling for volunteers he directed a half dozen of his men to act as runners from his own P. C. to that of the French Colonel. These two miles through darkness, exposed to the drum fire barrage all the way. None of them faltered, none of them failed to deliver the message entrusted to him—and none of them, by virtue of the amazing luck that has clung to the regiment, was killed.
More of the same kind of good fortune followed. The enemy suddenly ceased to struggle in this sector, and so the proposed counter attack was called off. Circumstances made it imperative, however, for the Americans to go into the firing line again. For four hours they hal sat tight under the heavy test artillery hammering the world has seen; for four more they stood by to repel boarders; for another four they had marched across country, still under terrific shell fire; they were dog tired and without food or water. Yet they moved on into line without a whimper—and again luck served them well. They had an insignificant percentage of casualties, while the French troops they relieved, hiking rearward, over the same path, suffered severe losses. Further, the sertor raplow came so quiet, restless and supplied were brought up in the same night.
planes fly over us daily and our anti aircraft guns never fail to open fire on them. As I am writing this sentence, a Boche airplane is flying over the place in which I am writing. Our guns are now firing on it, but he is so high, I think there is hardly a chance of bringing him down. This has become so common to us now that we hardly pay any attention to it.
Seldom we leave our work to look at any bombing or enemy planes that may be near us. A few days ago I went out to one of our gas hospitals and saw a few victims of the enemy's gas. I also went to one of the cemeteries where some of our soldiers lie resting. We are in the danger zone, you know, mother, and sometime we have some real close calls. The other night about 10:30 as we were going to bed, an enemy airplane came over our place of abode and so low that the buzz from the motor seemed as if the plane was lighting on our roof. Such hurrying and scurrying for our gas masks and helmets you never saw or heard of before. The night was dark and no lights to be seen. To this day we do not know whether it was one of our planes or the enemy's, but it went off, probably over the line.
I am in good health and feel fine. remember me to all friends. Yes, I guess I am as safe as one can be over here, and just how safe you are, you can never tell. Will write you again in a few days.
Your loving son,
Meldrim.

Your letter was received and welcome indeed was it; yetters are very inspiring, especially when they come from one so dear to the receiver. I hope that you are well and happy, and Carswell. tell me how he is getting along. I suppose he is some boy now. So you met my wife, did you, come sweet girl! Hope you like her. How did you find New York, pretty dull, I suppose since all the boys are off to but, but don't worry, we'll come back.
Say, Kid, did you ever hear the "Shell Shimmie Blues?" They are all over France. Some raggedyblue! You can hear 'em, but you can't see and sung by the 'carre' Didyoud. 'em. It was composed and sung by the 15th. Regiment boys, and there's another like this:
I am writing this while the soft strings of a mandolin float in, played by Rebt. Bunn, some musician. He is playing "The Sunshine of Your Smile," pretty song. Every now and then I get to a good piano and then the fun starts. I wrote Sam a letter this morning. I suppose he is some man now. I will write him again soon. I wrote Fred a letter, but that was some time ago. I want you to write me a long letter and give me all the slope. What became of your piano? I'm going to rob you of it when I get back. You're not using it now, unless you put it in your trunk to take it with you. I don't know where my insurance papers are; I thought you had them. You know where they were, please investigate and get them, if possible, and let me know. I thought I gave them to you when I left New York. Try to locate them through Fred; he might know about them. I left my chifforelle with the Johnson's, so you might ask them. I am positive I didn't take them away. I am glad that you and wife are pals and can stay that way. Teach her muscle for me. She has the right kind of hands and brains for it; she is very apt in everything. And about Carswell, yes. Will write again soon.

Just three years ago she left us,
For ‘that dear, sweet heavenly home,
Where we hope some day to meet her
Weiting by that great, white throne.
In Laurel Grove softly sleeping,
Siceping where the flowers gently
wave,
Lies our mother we loved so dearly
In her lonely, silent grave.
She~will never be forgotten,
Never shall her memory fade,
Sweetest thoughts will always linger
Around the spot where she is laid,
‘Our earthly treasure now is gone,
‘No one to share our cares,
But the Lord hath taken her home to
rest s PRES
