Among the guests also were prominent army and naval officers. The discussion was opened by Prof. Stephen Pierce Duggan of the College of the City of New York, who was followed by Philip Wilson, assistant editor of the London, England, Times, who outlined the plan for administering the legislative, executive and police affairs of the proposed League which is to guarantee freedom and self-determination to all nations, weak and strong, protect the smaller nations from encroachments of their more powerful neighbors and guarantee to them opportunity to develop national spirit and unity. Mr. Jones when called upon to represent America and to speak as well in behalf of the ten millions of black Americans asked that America while acting as spokesman for the New Democracy, save herself from an embarrassing situation by instituting reform measures at home that would guard tee to all of its citizens, black as well as white, such a portion of justice as BRUNSWICK NEWS Rev.

They hope that the Negroes of Africa as well would make them a free people indeed. He said in part: as those in America will benefit thereby. They have left 800,000 men on European battlefields as their sacrifice for true freedom; 200,000 American Negroes have risked all in France. One whole American Negro regiment has been cited for bravery and has been awarded the French croix de guerre, that is, those who were left to receive it. 200,000 more Negroes were mobilized in America ready to go over, and the whole Negro civilian population men and women stood back of the army with their Inbor in munitions factories and with their volunteer service, loans, and gifts to all war activities. This was in fact a part of their contribution to and their endorsement of the formation of the League of Nations which is now to be discussed at the Peace Table. "Now Negroes want to reap some of the immediate benefits in the form of greater industrial freedom, jobs with a future, better homes, at fairer rentals, personal safety and justice before the law, the abolition of the "Jim-crow"ars, a voice in the selection of governing officials, national and local, and a more general participation in the affairs of the government. These provisions, it seems to me, are essential if we are to face the world with a proposal for a League of Nations and expect other nations to take us seriously, to trust us and to cooperate heartily and confidentially in its formation."

In the agree ment, under‘which they have returned to work, they gained in no essential thing. There was uo just cause moy- ing to the strike. " Wages and work gus conditions at the shipyards are Very satisfactory considering the aver Age skill and efficiency of the workers, Fact is, these things were not the real rause of the strike, as very clearly ap Peared under investigations. We hope the Negro employees, who Moubtless would have been the “goats” of the readjustment if the strikers had won, will learn a great lesson from What they saw in this movement, We hope they may so orgunize their forces that they may place their own akilled labor in the labor market, to seture just such considerations, as from its merit, it may be entitled to.

In several ezsea we have noted that persons who subscribed to this popular plan of weekly savings, have realized for the first time their ability to save and to accumulate on a large scale. Some become pepositors in the bank under ahe regplar plan end often Inunch eut into newer enterprises, as money saved enables them to do. Some begin the purchase of their own homes as a airect result of this awakening. Just now, there is less opportunity than usual for wasting money foolishly and a much greater need for saving’ it, and we urge ull those who do uot need to spend it to return their savings to the banks.

CONCERNING PEACE ON EARTH Last year as in days of old, more than nineteen hundred years ago, this old world groped in darkness, and there was strife on earth. Autocoracy wrested with democracy, darkness struggled with light, might vied with right, and peace there was not. The angels of the Lord stood looking on weeping. They doubted not their God, but it was a sight pitiful to be viewing the peace on earth that Jesus had brought, halted in its spreading, turned back as it were by the cruel hand of hating. As once before, Christ cried, in woe, "My God! Hast Thou forsaken me." Right seemed upon the shadow, keeping watch o'er his own. Since then the tide has turned, the scene has changed. Wrong bows in submission to right, darkness now is night, democracy rules; the bells of joy, again they ring, again the angelic choir sings, heavenly news again they bring, the Christ still lives, the peace of a thousand years reigns again, and all is peace, perfect peace. May peace after war, and love of God, spread far, sink deep into the hearts of all, arouse our spirits, smooth er our woes. By truth and by spirit may the peace we would enjoy pass on to others, by antipathy not angry. Hath God not blest us everyone? Sound, then, the joybells of Heaven, and proclaim. Oh! our sons, the happy tiding of Peace on Earth. Goodwill toward all men." Walt Tibbs Mrs. Willie E. A. Blair died Monday at her residence, 750 East Bolton after an illness of many months.

SATURDAY DEC 21ST, 1918 Masonry is a succession of allegories, the more vehicles of great lessons in morals and philosophy. You will more fully appreciate its spirit, its object, its purposes, as you advance in the different degrees, which you will find to constitute a great, complete and harmonious system. If you have been disappointed in the first three degrees; if it has seemed to you that the performance has not come up to the promise, and that the commonplaces which are uttered in them with such and air, the lessons in science and the arts, merely rudi mentary, and known to every school boy, the trite maxims of morality, and the trivial ceremonies are unworthy the serious attention of a grave and sensible man, occupied with the big cares of life, and to whom his time is valuable, remember that those cere monies and lessons come to us from an age when the commonest learning was confined to a select few; when the most ordinary and fundamental principles of morality were new dis coveries; and that the first three de grees stand in these latter days, like the columns of the old, roofless Druidic Temple, in their rude and prime val simplicity, but mutilated and corrupted by the action of time, and the additions and interpolations of illiter ate ignorance. They are but the entrance to the great Masonic Temple, the mere pillars of the portico. A few trite lessons upon the rudiments of architecture, a few ordinary maxims of morality, a few unimportant and unsubstantial traditions will no longer satisfy the earnest inquirer after Masonle truth. Let him who is satisfied and content with them remain where he is, and seek to ascend no higher. But let him who desires to understand the harmonious and beautiful proportions of Masonry, read study, reflect, digest and discriminate. The true Mason is an ardent seeker after knowledge; and he knows that books are vessels which come down to us full freighted with the intellectual riches of the past; and that in the reading of these argosies is much that sheds light upon the history of Masonry, and proves its claims to be regarded as the great benefactor of mankind. —Brotherhood. The Unobtrusive Member There is a class of Masons who might be called unobtrusive. They are reticent without being reserved, and quiet without being inactive. That word "quiet" fits many a great hearted brother to be found in an odd corner of almost every lodge room. He may not be a spouter, or make any effort at oratory, but in his silent, unostentatious way you will find him active in helping with the refreshment or entertainment or putting at ease some shy novice of the order, or visiting at the bedside of the sick. This type of individual rarely ever wishes official distinction but he thinks deeply and works hard in his own way. You may be certain that in any important lodge decision his vote stands for good judgment, and in his charge no apportioned mission is neglected.—Masonic Chronicle. Brotherly Love, Relief and Truth The covenant of Masonry is brotherly love, relief and truth. A covenant is a solemn agreement by which the parties thereof are mutually bound by the terms of the undertaking. Mutuality is the very essence of the compact. The idea of selfish advantage is completely eliminated. The advantage incident to the agreement may be to each covenantor different in kind and in quantity, but it is based upon the principle that he who gives is to receive, and he who receives is in turn to give. In keeping this Masonic covenant, the giving and receiving is not between strangers, who give that they may receive but between men who find joy in giving, and who received with added joy, knowing that the joy of him who gives. What under this covenant is given and received? Brotherly love; that cement of life which binds men in their joys and in their sorrows, in successes and in failure; that Godly attribute of man which distinguishes him from all other living creatures; that quality in man which enthrones him in the most coveted of all places—in the hearts of his fellow men. The natural sequence of such love is relief and truth. There is no man so favored, so rich or so mighty as to be exempt from the chastening hand of God; no heart that is not touched with the agony of grief. Men of brotherly love are the ministersing angels of relief who bind up the broken heart, who lift the fallen from the slough of despondency, who feed the hungry, clothe the naked and house the homeless poor. Truth, the fidelity to veracity the constancy to which is real, the sincerity of word and act; that quality which is incapable of counterfeit or deceit, while the sequence of brotherly love, is yet both its beginning and its end. its cause as well as its result. The keeper of such a covenant present a mailed front to all opposition and with easy conscious sleep when the day's work is ended.-Masonic Home Journey. The Making of a Mason The making of a Mason is no longer considered the administration of an obligation, the imparting of a secret or the disclosing of a grip. These are but the sign manuals whereby one may discover himself to a brother, the uni form which a Mason wears. The making of Masons today should be the making of men, manly men, God fearing men, honorable men, men who will endeavor to practice the tenets and precepts of Masonry as taught within our sacred retreats. The true Mason today is he who, with faith in God steps forth to fight the battle of the weak, to help the oppressed, to shield the innocent; one whose greatest pleasure consists in the promulgation of the universal brotherhood of man—Masonic Chronicle.
