Permission for organization had been granted by the colored general conference on presentation of petitions from the women of the denomination and from the of Southern Methodist women. Twenty four conferences of the C. M. B. church were represented from nine states, and the work was thoroughly organized. For the present the color ed council adopted the missionary publications of the white council. A deaconess board was provided to secure and train educated young women for community service. There will be close cooperation with the white council in the latter's settlement work among colored people, successfully carried on in several cities for some years. Eventually this work will be absorbed by the colored organization, the white women cooperating as may be found advisable. The white council issues a strong appeal to its thousands of local societies to cooperate with the local colored societies in every state. The Tennessee conference society, white, sent a fraternal messenger to the meeting who was elected to and accepted the work of organizer of the colored women in her state. Madam H.

A BROAD-GAUGE PUBLIC SERVICE Houston. Tex.—Houston's official Social Service Bureau directs the city's relief work, public health nursing, kindergartens, playgrounds, social centers and day nurseries. The work is centered in four "neighborhood houses." One of these is for colored people, the plan being to bring health, recreation and opportunity to all members of the community?. At the Negro center the bureau employs six workers, a trained social worker, two public health nurses, a day nursery matron, a kindergartener, and her assistant. The Negroes themselves provide funds for relief, and part of the rent for the building. The city also maintains three night schools for colored working people, who are taught grade work, cooking, sewing and carpentry. With the assistance of the white proba tion officer the colored women have opened a home for delinquent colored girls. The city and county are both interested in this enterprise, and have promised help. It is noteworthy that Virginia's very successful work for young colored delinquents was also be gun by Negroes—that for boys by a law yer, and for girls by the women's clubs; and that both have won high praise and generous appropriation from the state. Mrs. Barnes-Funeral Largely Attended Mrs. Barnes-Funeral Largely Attended MANY PROMINENT OUT OF TOWN PERSON IN ATTENDANCE Services Were Held At St. Philip A. M. E. Church. Funeral services for the late Mrs. Rosa L. Barnes, grand worthy counselor of the Courts of Calanthe of Georgia, who died in New York on Thursday of last week were concluded in the elaborate but solemn services held in her honor at St. Phillip A. M. B. church Thursday. The remains of the distin guished fraternal woman had been lying in state at her late residence on Henry street, east, since their arrival from New York last Monday. Hundreds of men and women, prominent in fraternal and church affairs in this and adjoining states, came to pay honor to the deceased, and many of the more prominent leaders made addresses on her life and career at the church. Rev. R. V. Branch, pastor of the deceased, presided at the services. Fraternal rites by the various societies, with which Mrs. Barnes was connected, were said at the cemetery. The addresses at the church were marked by the glowing compliments upon her character and executive genius. It was recalled how she had taken hold of the Courts of Calanthe, of which she was grand worthy counselor, when that order was in its infancy, with little numerical and financial strength, but had labored to bring it up to its present splendid and powerful grade. Tribute was also paid to the charming personal attributes of Mrs. Barnes. The funeral represented the most lavish outlay of flowers and floral designs ever seen in this city; hundreds of the most elaborate and expensive having been presented by organizations and in individuals all over the south, and taxing the local deliverey companies to handle them. The long procession concluded at Laurel Grove cemetery, where the commitment services were said. Mrs. Barnes was a woman of considerable property and was very influential in fraternal circles throughout the south. She leaves several relatives. She was a prominent member NUMBER 9 Negroes Urged to Give $1 War Work COUNCIL OF ONE HUNDREN HAS CHARGE OF CAMPAIGN Rev. W. G. Alexander Is Chairman of the Committee The white people of Savannah have already raised their quota of the National United War Work fund, $150,000 of the $250,000,000 appeal. Negro leaders appeal to you to make a fair showing by the gift of but one dollar each. This war gift is no Liberty Loan or War Saving Stamp subscription, which gives you your money back with interest, but it is the gift of one Negro dollar to bring good cheer, religious life, night schools, teachers, build huts to protect your soldiers from the weather, give stamps, paper, smokes, books, magazines, news papers, Christmas boxes and the like, to show Negro appreciation for our men who have left all to fight for u and to save civilization. Can it be true, as stated, with 50 years of freedom and with all of the prosperity which has come that we cannot be aroused to give one dollar to a great cause led by our own leaders? Is it a fact that if white leaders, men and women, led this movement the Negro would readily respond with his dollar? If the Negro leadership of the pulpit, business and industry can't arouse the Negro to stand upon his own feet at this late day our leadership is of no value, but we have full confidence in its merit and power The Negro War Work Council of One Hundred appeals to you as a matter of race honor, assuming the responsibility to help collect the $3,750 War Chest Fund, which alone can entitle us to representation in the $150,000, Savannah's quota of the War Work fund. We reasonably urge every subscriber to pay over to the Hibernia bank or to us who will honorably report it in addition to the one dollar which is comparatively nothing by the side of the men who offer their all upon the altar in cantonment, upon the seas and the blazing battlefields of France. We ask every member of our council of one hundred to get nine other men to give you at least one dollar each. Our colored women are scouring the streets, alleys and lanes, and calling at every business house in order that they may report some thing each day at headquarters, the Red Cross rooms, Masonic Temple, or at any one of the three colored banks. By the Negro Council of One Hundred, chairman, B. S. Taylor, secretary B. W. White, secretary of the Council. W. S. Scott, treasurer.

A. building No. 1, devoted exclusively to negro troops. (Negro secretaries in charge) Center: Negro "Y" secretary teaching class. Men from first group, 165th depot brigade. Note the boy immediately in front of teacher—book upside down. But, as in everything else, he wanted to be in on the picture, so when the photographer appeared he grabbed a piece of literature and proceeded to "look wise." Bottom: Class of illiterates. The lesson absorbing the attention of the class is, "See the Boy Hit the dog." The Y. M. C. A. does wonders for the white soldier, but at the same time it is the friend of the negro. The colored man in khaki can look to the "Y" for friendliness and comfort—and he gets it. In all camps the huts that have been established for the negroes are constantly crowded. Two hundred and seventy secretaries with 22 huts are working among the negroes in the camps of America. The association has sent forty-five secretaries overseas, with twenty-five approved and ready to sail to care for the men on the shell-shaken continent. Work among the colored troopers has been far-reaching in its influence and all negroes in the uniform of Uncle Sam have been materially benefited by the organization, one of the seven taking part in the gigantic war work drive.

MANZO, GENERAL MANAGER 145 West Broad Street Many New Materials Used Now York, Nov. 13th-What appeals to the average woman more than the dainty, fluffy folds of her lingerie? These hold for her some indescribable fascination which cannot be fathomed. The soft, delicate folds touch the truly feminine string and the woman responds willingly to the lure of their recourse. Slyly and secretively will my lady purchase these bits of finery just for the sheer pleasure of calling them her own. © MCCALL But these purchases are not without discernment, for the modern woman thinks twice even though she is not conscious of it. Crepe de chine is one of the most durable fabrics for underwear, and it is being used to a great extent. One of the shops is showing a very extreme model of flesh crepe de chine and black chantilly lace. This ofcourse is a luxury, even an extraxagance, and not every wom an would indulge in this fad. Figured Material for Underwear Besides the appearance of lace,one sees infrequently allover figured material, usually silk and sometimes Georgette crepe. This dainty flower ed material looks just like a dream when made into the clever new designs that the creators of fashion are showing. One nightgown that attracted my attention, was developed in flesh colored Georgette and a tiny yellow flower spotted all over it. The neck was edged with this same delicate shade of yellow ribbon, and the waist © MCCALL A Clever New Design line was finished with tiny buds so much like the ones in the material that it took careful study to tell the difference. In the same shop I saw a charming pair of pajamas. They had the man darin coat and the straight edged pajamas. The material was the most retiring orchid shade that I have ever seen. The color itself seemed to tell of its quaintness and charm. The only trimming on these silken things were bands of heavy satin ribbon of a darker shade. Whether one be light or black of tresses, I'm sure these would be far the most becoming pajamas that one could find. And, apropos of the lingerie, let me tell you of a kimono that held me gasping and spellbound for fully an hour. The lines were simple, being straight from the neck to the hem, but the material bespoke such wealth, such elegance that one would feel like an all powerful ruler with these silken folds about one. THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE SATURDAY, NOV. 16TH, 1918. The colors and all the warmth of the Orient and all their mystery and fascination. There were reds and oranges so well blended that one was not aware of the change of color until one rubbed one's eyes to see if they were dreaming. And then most unexpected edly a spot of turquoise would appear and beg your forgiveness for its uncere monious appearance. Yes, it was fairly ablaze with color, and the more you looked the more appeared. The slaves were simple. The whole thing just wrapped around and fastened somewhere on the side. A Simple Nightgown Design Illustrated here is a charming yet very simple nightgown. The construction of it is very simple and it may be easily made at home. The combination shown here is indeed a wonderful little thing. The front closing corset cover is attached to the open drawers which are plain at the waistline, or the petticoat drawers which are full at the waistline and in envelope style. A dainty bit of embroidery makes it an attractive trimming. THREE COLORED MEN ELECTED Charleston, W.

Both Fayotto and McDowell Coun- ties have had colored legislators before, the former three and the latter one, but at no time has there been more than one colored representative in the legislature. The nomination and election of these men is considered remarkable for the fact that in none of the coun- ties which they represent is there a majority of colored voters, the per- cent in McDowell being 34, Fayette 22 and Kanawha 10. THE SMITH-HUGHES VOCATIONAL WORK AT TUSKEEGEE INST. Tuskegee Inst. Nov. —Mr. William N. Berry, a graduate of the University of Wisconsin, and for four years Director of Agriculture at Wilberforce University, has joined the Agricultural Faculty here where he will devote most of his attention to the educational side of the work, leaving the Agricultural Director, Mr. F. H. Cardozo, to give his entire attention to the administrative work. With the coming of Mr. Berry, the Smith-Hughes Vocational work is being thoroughly organized. Mrs. A. M. Zuber for a number of years instructor in the Industrial High School at Birmingham, Ala., and who recently completed a course at the Chicago School of Civics, is in charge of the Home Economics, is in charge of the Home Economics training in Dorothy Hall. Dr. R. R. Moton, Principal in speaking of the Smith-Hughes work said, "There is a great future ahead for the young men and women of our race who are trained in the Smith-Hughes Courses, for after the war, there will also be calls for trained agricultural experts who will be called upon to help the exsoldier farmers to adjust themselves to new conditions. The same situation will no doubt obtain in the industries where trained industrial workers will be in great de mand. We are very glad to add Mrs Zuber and Mr. Berry to our staff of Smith-Hughes workers." The Smith Hughes course offers teacher training in agriculture, trades and home economics.

The high, the low; the prince, the peasant; all must bow to death; and all must go away after the same fashion and with the same ceremony. Death is the great leveler the great democratizer. It enters hoy els und palaces alike; it plays no fav orites; and it wins in the end. ‘The passing of several notable and influential people from our midst brings home to us afresh the conscious ness of mortality and the inevitability ef death. ‘The shock of their passing; the suddenness of the jolt in the af fatrs of Ife which arasgtfécted; the ‘mportunity and uncertainty of the ea; all these make Death strange, un eamny. There is the congiatency, tho 4m the blind justness of Bate and For trmaa, the dealings whereof are not de termined byspower, by preferment or by possessions. “Thy fate ie the com mom fate of all,” rings into the ears of all kinds and conditions of men. / Money and position will not assuage the pain nor stay the hand of Death. Death comes “at an hour when ye think not.” say ha injunction ts old and oft repeat ed, but none the less sacred and im Dortant, to “Be ye also ready for ye know not when the Son of man com— eth” May we not so live that the great hosts of our friends and connec tions will regret our passing, shed a tear when our brow is cold and our ton gue is stilled; and say that a good citi z@ has fallen. ‘The Tribune feels the chock of the passing of many prominent citizens of the race from cities all over the state and shares the sorrow and disappoint meat anf? loss which these untimely goiizs will mean to the important. ques tions of racial advancement and self determination which these days present.

Her strength lay, primarily, in a broad outlook upon the undeveloped in terests of our people together with a splendid organizing genius. Her per~ sonality drew upon the faith and confi fdence of her adbergnts-and her sympa thy and kindtiness bound her aesoci fates about her plans and herself. | She had seen thg deeper life of our: ‘people, untouched 3" <nihoa felt the vi brant heart; beat of her perple, reso ant and responsive.tiiough no kindly soul had roused its latent possibilities; she had distinguished between bigotry a bigness, prudery and power; she had got so close ta,the heart,of the com mon people as to dispell fear and fool_| tuere and sin, and to implant in these very hearts desires for better, happier, ovelier life. She learned to meet the obstacles and disappointments of life with a courage, undaunted in the con sciousness of right; and her dealings with the issues and problems in her phere exhibited her broad conception ‘of fustice qnd individual right.

Mrs. Rarnes was ‘in interesting and charming, couspanion to her friends: She gave them laughter or tenderness or counsel, according as they needed and deseryed it.

She will be remembered for her loveliness of ‘manner; her charity to those who | were down and needed her, friendly joffices; for her marked loyalty to all her connections. She will be remem bered for her great faith and fealty in her close friends. The hosts of her friends paid her a fitting and well deserved tribute those hosts of her associntes who came from far @ft~prur, bringing flowers and enlogfes: and they laid her away in a veritable bed of flow ors of ehoicest les and fragrance; lending a soothing and touching Inte sbent ber splendid lifggagdgen4. * Thys passed on ee whpel sari erncht the 508 OF RET 10 {tvits aed the inet rio aaa fon to parti teete Ta Ble eh ge Bt Serena At owmnphs whey ried tie jfifte exrom'o whieh the helt gfe of pion Ferns farnishel ce Tye See ate 7 ALD ATE TS STATE EDITOR MACK TALES | OF DHINGS HERE .YD THIS i ‘Trnnitls © z Mis. la Mo Mefomlen af Tewite is Ixick from a delightfol sv sr spent as the guést af her deuehter ip Cleveland, Ohio, Mrs. Melendon vis ited several other northern cities.

Bread St. Williams Bldg T. K. GIBSON,. GEN. MGR. "Eat Us" and Save the Wheat and Meat for Our Soldier Boys What Are Masons Doing? What would we think of a church, whose work is nothing but psalming, sermon-hearing and "testifying" in prayer meetings for mutual cillification? A church does not exist for itself or for the benefit of its own members only. It must touch out side interests, or it must make itself felt as a power for righteousness in the community in which it exists. If it is not doing that, it will die a natural death. What is true of a church is also true of a Masonic lodge. A Masonic fraternity is not intended to and should not, exist in a community for mere ritual repeating, ceremonial observing and member raising. It must do some thing more than these and must go be yond the limits of its membership and beyond the borders of the Masonic fraternity at large. A kindly hand to help extended occasionally to a distressed brother, or to his widow and orphans, is not enough. It is only a small part of what a lodge can and should do as a body. Think of the calibre and quality of the men constituting each lodge—picked men from every walk of life, professional men, best artisans, merchants, authors, journalists, educators, the cream of every town and city. Now, what are these men doing as a body of Masons or as individual Masons connected with an ancient and honorable organization? Do they take part officially in the affairs of the towns, cities or states of which they are respected, yes, influential constituents? Do they make their mighty influence felt as a power for civic righteousness, for political purification, for town improvement and city betterment? And the important public affairs in which they might take a mighty part are legion. But in our day men are face to face with world problems. There is no limit to the good the Masonic fraternity can accomplish, if it only makes up its mind to take hold of these problems and try to solve them with char acteristic American enterprise and determination. International peace, international arbitration, immigration, elimination of certain dread diseases, grappling with the demon of so called white-slavery—what is there in the world that the men of the Masonic fraternity cannot do, if they have a mind to do it?—Craftsman. Friends They cheer us while we feast, and gladden us while we toil. They strengthen us when we falter, and acclaim us when we change our defeats into triumphs, and when our banners would trail, crown us with the bays of the brave. They give us peace with the magic touch that drives pain to rest, and when hope tarries, they give it speed. They are the promise of our love and the fulfillment of our faith. They chase unrest beyond the whisper of an echo, and hold to our eager lips the challice of joy. They wait for us, long for us, love for us, and around every bend in the road of life they come trooping to give us glad greeting. They kneel with us in blessed orsons of prayer, and when our prayers are done, give us the benediction of their smiles To Masons all these things are some thing more than a name; something more than a charm that lulls to sleep, for, considered only as an institution, Masonry may be said to be an association, voluntary, of individuals for mutual benefit and mutual improvement, governed by laws, customs and obligations, selfimposed, to secure justice, fraternity, mutual happiness, and the just government and perpetuity of the institution itself. In other words, we represent an ideal republic where mutual obligation, mutual interest and mutual service secure fraternity and the great estgood to the whole. The bond of union which secures this permanency in so large a body of man, united in one common cause—men differing in nationality, religion, occupation, social and financial standing, ought to elicit more than a mere passing interest—Selected. My Brotheren, this grand old institution, which has come down to its thrust countless ages, as a priceless heritage pure and undefiled before God, which has survived passing of kingdoms, nations, and even religions themselves, which has ever been a potent yet an assuming factor in the oward march of civilization, and whose true, loyal and devoted votaries we are, is true to the first Divine command. Masonry the whole world over, is standing today just as it has stood throughout the countless ages of the past, for that trinity of principles that have ever been the dominant attributes of our great fraternity, the Fatherhood of God, the Brotherhood of man and the Immortality of the soul. Masonry is just as much the foe today of darkness, in tolerance, ignorance, superstition and oppression, and just as much the strong and sturdy friend of light, truth, knowledge, temperance, and justice, as it was way back yonder, when the world was young, when our first altar was erected, and our first prayer in behalf of heighted and unfortunate humanity ascended to the Throne of Grace—Selected. ```markdown ``` MADAME FREEMAN'S Let me teach you that course of "PORO SYSTEM AND BEAUTY CULTURE, which is one of the lead-systems of the day.

Overhome News Beaufort was lucky in the influenza epidemic for there were two hun dred cases here but only two deaths. Dr. O. S. Simpson is out again after an attack of influenza. Miss Jennie Wright has returned to Frogmore where she is teaching. A very impressive ceremony was held Sunday, November 10th, by the Sons of Beaufort lodge, Masons. It was the laying of the corner stone of Allen Chapel. Grand Master J. L. Washington and other high Masons took charge of the affair which was witnessed by a large crowd. The Rev. W. B. McPherson is pastor of Allen Chapel. Mrs. E. M. Bamfield, is out again after an attack of influenza. Mr. and Mrs. Henry DeLyons are in the city this week. Mr. DeLyons is in the navy department and is here visiting his aunt, Mrs. Scott, and his mother in law, Mrs. W. J. Bush. Rev. Coit will speak this week on the Y. M. C. A. drive.
