SATURDAY FEB 1, 1919
Dr. Belcher Retained As City Physician
ONE COLORED AND ONE WHITE CITY DOCTORS INSTEAD OF TWO EACH
Strong Opposition Arose to New Council's Plan to Have One White City Physician to Serve Both Races
At the initial meeting of the new city council Monday night the. plan which it had proposed to do away with the two white and two colored city work of ETAOINTAOINTAOINTAOI physicians and having the city's poor looked after by one white city physician, met with much opposition both among the Negroes and whites and as a result of this opposition council thought it best to appoint two physicians to look after this very important feature of the city's health, one for the white, Dr. A. L. R. Avant, and the other for the colored, Dr. F. S. Belcher. The salary of the former will be $3,000 per year and that of the latter $1,200.
The proposed plan to displace the four city physicians by one causer wide protest, most of those opposing the the plan feeling that it was a very unwise step and that the work was unquestionably too much for any one man to accomplish. Among those who opposed the change was the Central ministerial Committee, which presented its objections to Mayor Stewart, the Rev. T. Jefferson Goodall acting as chief spokesman. The objections of the committee to the plan to do away with the Negro city physicians was set forth in the following:
"We, members of the Central Ministerial Committee, representing the colored people of Savannah, have before us for consideration the proposition of City Council to dispense with the present plan of providing city physicians in favor of another plan which it is hoped will centralize this important work in one man or under the direction of one man, in the interest of increased efficiency. This new plan provides for no Negro physician.
"Manifestly, the matter of health is of vaster concern to colored people than almost every other consideration, and we believe it to be too vital to be submitted to experiment or change, when amongst us, at least, things are going so well.
"The service now being rendered by Negro city physicians is eminently sat isfactory and conscientious. No expenditure of the city's money brings larger returns. Proof of the high of fickency of this service may be had in any community throughout the city from the humble sick. We have no strictly personal interest in the two men."
"We are enough acquainted with the tremendous task and its detail to know that it is a physical impossibility for one man, or one man with less skilled assistants than the present incumbents, to do this work. There is certainly ample for the two Negro men.
"Frankly and without prejudice, we must state the incontrovertible truth that hardly any white man, of what ever temperament or personal qualities, would maintain the uniform patience, care and skilled attention to this Negro business, which it would need and deserve. Hardly any man will deny this.
"Negro health is vitally related to the general health; Negro people constitute the bulk of the laboring element; in the interest of all considerations, it is imperative to conserve it.

THE ARTISTRY OF BEING WELL DRESSED
The American Woman Appreciates That Smartness Is not Overdressing
New York, January 30th-To look really smart is a huge problem that the average woman is just beginning to solve. The Parisian, by a natural instinct, chooses her clothes correctly and wisely, and always looks chic. But the American woman in the past has been enclined to lavish upon her self finery that was neither well chos en nor becoming. It required a stud of one's personality, attractions, and
detractions, and then the search for the exact lines in dress that accentuate the attractions and artfully hide the defects.
Having found the suitable lines, the harmony of the costume must be considered—harmony, for instance, between hat and suit, and shoes and suit; and then, of course, harmony in the color scheme. Some women carelessly wear the hat that they wear at the matinee, when they go for a walk in the morning. The time and place must be given consideration, for how absurd to wear a dressy hat with a man nish walking costume. If the hat is dressy, the suit or coat must be dressy and the shoes must be of a rather dainty last. If one does not properly complement the other, the entire costume is a failure, even though each part in itself is pleasing. The discordant combination has a distasteful effect.
Quantity Small, But Quality Excel lent
Perhaps the biggest factor in the development of a perfect costume is the material. The material must be
good, for though the lines be perfect and the fit above the slightest criticism, if the material is of inferior quality the time and labor have been spent in vain. An expensive material will outlast the cheaper material and always is a mark of good taste. The present modes require very little material and for that reason everyone ought to exert extensive efforts to buy the best material.
Affairs are gradually becoming normal and very soon the market will lower the prices of woolen goods—not as low as the prewar prices, how ever, for market conditions are never the same after a war as before. And with the material cheaper, no one will have the slightest excuse for not being a smart and well dressed person.
Thanks to the sensible buyers and I must say, sensible women, the demand for novelty shoes has decreased and they are now popular. If have feet that can wear these oddly
XOCULZ
Sophistication in Simple Lines
MCCILL
An Unusual Collar
The Consideration of Shoes
cut boots and shoes; and still just those who can not will attempt it if it has been approved as the prevailing mode of footwear. If one has those dainty little feet that look well only in short vamp shoes, one should stick to the short vamp shoes whether la mode censors them or not. Loud, extreme colors should be avoided, and if one wants a spot of light color next the skirt, there are many subdued shades of spats that one may get at a reasonable price.
One of the most durable styles that one could buy for dressy wear is the black kid pump. These are always in fashion and will outwear patent after, which becomes rather old looking after a very short time. For street and walking, dark brown or mahogany colored oxford with the military heel, are very smart. Evening pumps are dependent on the color of the gown. But if there is a doubt as to what color will best harmonize with the frock, it is always safe to wear silver cloth.
Little Change in Silhouette
Springs brings us no change in the silhouette of the costume. The long slim lines have proved so desirable that they will not slip away after just one season. Many little changes are seen, such as novelty sleeves and collars. This attractive frock of serge and satin for Misses has a very unusual collar, having one end extend down to about the knee. The other has a rather odd shaped tunic which gracefully rounds at the center front seam.
NEGRO FIREMEN
On motion George M. Coleman was elected as chief of the fire company, and was authorized to appoint his asistant, and to select ten other white members and five colored, making a total of seventeen members of the fire company, and to furnish the clerk with a complete list of the names forming the Fort Gaines Fire Company, to be recorded.—Fort Gaines Southwest Georgian.
This is an extract from the proceedings of the City Council at Fort Gaines. We do not recall seeng anywhere else provision made for the regular enlistment of Negro men as a part of a small town volunteer fire department. The idea strikes us as being a good service will take it as a compliment and so it will be. And it will be a recognition deserved because it will show them they are men in whom the city authorities have confidence.

Among the Masons
It ig on undeniable truth jn the his
tory of nations and organizations, not
-o speak of familics and individuals,
that prosperity has its dangers and ad
versity its uses.
For one thing, hardship and outside
hostility unite the members of an or
ganization more closly in the preserva
sion of their common cause. None but
the sincere wjll seck membership with
3H its ford, und their attachment to it
snd to euch other wil be in proportion
te the sacrifice they make for it.
“See how these Christians love each
other!” was suid with perfect truth of
ithe members of the carly Christian
church during the first three centuries
of persecution, but in later ages the
church became rich and powerful, it
was then said no longer, save, glus!
in irony, . So,our beloved order has
att ite pericd of persecution of pote
epposjtion, and bitter prejuduce and
hostility, when: none would knock at
its doors but those who were Masons
athand and it was only the pure and
sublime tenets of Masonry exemplify
ing those teachings in their lives and
conduct tuvard the world at large aud
towards cach other, which preserved
the order from extinction and brought
it to the position of power and prosperi
ty which it holds today.
But on the other hand, let’s not forget
that this very prosperity has its dai
gers, that wrappedup in it are the
germs of weakness and dissention to
be most carefully eradicated, if the
parity and strength of the institutio
has its dangers. Masonry is popular’
today as never before. All sorts
a7 men are craving admission and the
danger fs that we forget in the ambi
"tion for members, the character and
quality of membership tat we forget
ia the making of many Masons what ts
aecessary to the real making of one,
We have need to do everything in our
power to keep alive and strong the
aense of brotherhood and companion
ahip against the weakening and disinte
grating effect of large numerical agere
gations, that the ties of friendship and
brotherly lave which binds us Masons
together be not supntanted by those of
clique and party within the fold.—

PROSTITUTION FOR PELF
There is a persistent rumor that this efficiency of the nation to such a degree that the National Army program demanded its extermination, is looked upon as a measure of progress and reconstruction, in time of peace. city will again recognize and license open prostitution and segregate it. Moreover, it is intimated that this return to commercialized vice, has the assent at least, if not the express direction, of the new-complexioned city government and police power.
Thus, it would seem that this institution which wastes the morale and The old city administration, through the mayor and the chief of police, sought hard to segregate the "red-light" into Negro neighborhoods. It was made clear by these leaders, to Negro protesting committees of colored men, that this incubus was "necessary", and hence had to be recognized and regulated.
A storm of protest, brought on by outraged public opinion, black and white, killed the proposition; the agitation ending, finally, in an open session of city council, which body wisely passed a resolution directing the chief of police to clear the city of this menace.
The mayor and chief of police were both absent from the city when this matter reached its culmination in council session, yet the administration took credit for having rid the city of this public, open market for selling disease, degradation and death. The facts, however, show that the public demanded the reform.
Will the new administration, through faulty reasoning or vulgar influence of profiteers, suffer this city to again alip into the clutches of the worst of all sins and tragedies? Or will it protect the young of our city and thousands of soldiers who are returning?
The war, through the American army, showed a marked prevalence and high venereal rate among the young men of America. Examination of draftees showed that five men came into the army with social diseases to every one who contracted it after, his induction.
Can there be any severer indictment against this sin? Can there be any stronger argument for its eradication?
"Regulation and control" are farcical and evasive.
The government proved, absolutely, the marked advantages to the physical well being and efficiency of its fighting men, by removing red-light districts from the regions around its training camps. It means to press this program as a sound measure. Will Saranah treat with commercialized prostitution? Will She set apart a portion of her fair city to be the established breeding place of sin, disease and death? We hardly think so.
It may be expected that any move in this direction will be met with a deter mined resistance from the people who have the interests of this community at heart, and by those who place the morals and health of the youth far above any considerations of sorridid and selfish gain.
THE RECORDER
Little is to be gained in the interest of law and order by vindictive and ill tempered remarks from the benches of our courts, such as have frequently been attributed to Recorder Schwarz in the past few weeks, in cases where the issues were between white and Negro people.
In a certain clash between a white woman and a Negro woman, who engaged in a regular woman's dispute around a bargain counter in a crowded store, the recorder is credited with having given a general invitation to white women to bring before him their complaints against Negro women who "talk back" or make an equivalent "offence"(?)
In a more recent case, his observations regarding a clash between a
street car conductor and a Negro passenger, of which there are a great many these days, the recorder is credited with stating, that the conduct of Negroes on street cars is becoming in tolerable, and that he meant to put a stop to it, in so far as his authority extended.
In these cases where the judicial temper becomes uncontrollable and unjudicial, excessive fines usually result.
Justice is blind, in fiction if not in fact, and vindicitiveness and distemper and racial contempt have no place on the bench.
In a recent editorial of this paper, styled "The Negro and the Courts," we announced our pride and fortune in the unswerving fairness of the higher courts of this jurisdiction. We could not then, as we cannot now, include the recorder's court.
Recorder Schwarz rides in an automobile. He seldom rides in a Savannah street car, and more rarely, still, does he ride on the western lines where situations brought on by varied construction of the seating law, arise.
He has been hearing only the side of the conductors. He does not know the extreme provocation in these cases, caused by the impatient, ignorant and harsh manner of the car crews in the discharge of their duties. He does not know that a great many conductors regard Negro passengers as riding by sufferance. He does not know how often in these disputes, the motorman runs into the car, controller in hand, threatening to brain some defenseless Negro man, woman or child. If he wishes these facts, we can furnish them from cases which have occurred in the past few months, since the cars have been handled by these inexperienced men from the hinterland.
Perhaps, under information, he would have a different attitude of mind on these questions.
Anyway, the above method of treating this matter does not get us any nearer the peaceable solution of these problems of race relationship. Every occurrence, coupled with rasping rebuke and excessive penalty, aggravates the situation and puts the question further from solution.
Much as shall be the suffering of colored folk; harsh as may be the dealing with them by the bench; these questions must eventually be settled right. Thinking people must be conscious of the inevitable change which must come about, costly and painful as they shall be to Negro people who lay the position of advantage.
Negroes have got to be treated better all over this country, not because of any result of war, not because of any vague or impossible social construc not because of any academic constructions of this new democracy, but, simply and sufficiently, because it is right. The straws blow that way.

Text of the Lesson, II Kings xviii, 13, to xix, 37—Memory Verses, 32, 33—Golden Text, Pa. xlvi, 1—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns.
In our last lesson all that we saw of Hesckiah was good, except in the matter of his not honoring the Lord before the visitors from Babylon, but this lesson gives a little more insight into the heart of the man, who, like all the rest of us, would be nothing but sinful but for the grace of God. His great turning to the Lord, with the great Passover and the two weeks' feast of unleavened bread and the cleansing of the land from idols, was in the very beginning of his reign. But to begin well is one thing, while patient continuance in well doing is often quite another, and it is in the continuance that many fall. Paul said that, having obtained help of God, he continued (Acts xxvi, 22), and that same help is for all who really desire it.
In the sixth year of Hezekiah's reign the ten tribes were carried into captivity in Assyria by Shalmaneser in the ninth year of the reign of Hoshea, their king, because they obeyed not the voice of the Lord their God, but transgressed all that Moses, the servant of the Lord, commanded (xvilii, 9-12). Eight years later, in the fourteenth year of Hezekiah, Semnacherib came against Judah and Jerusalem, and at first Hezekiah tried to buy him off by a measure of submission to him by giving him gold and silver, even the gold from the doors and pillars of the temple (xvilii, 13-16). That was certainly not trusting in the Lord, as he had done at the beginning, and gave the enemy ground to reproach God and scoff at Hezekiah's trust (xvilii, 22) and made them bold to blaspheme and defy and lie, saying. The Lord said to me Go up against this land and destroy it (xvilii, 23).
While those who bear the name of the Lord may terribly fail, as did some of the kings who sat upon the throne of the Lord in Jerusalem, so that Jerusalem herself was called a harlot, and also called Sodom and Gomorrah (Isa. i, 9, 10, 21), those, who like Pharaoh and Sennacherlb, and the antichrist of the last days, openly defy God, are the devil in human form, but all such loftiness shall be brought down, and the Lord alone shall be exalted (Isa. ii, 11, 17). The Assyrian generals were not far from the truth when they said that it was vain to place any reliance upon Egypt (xviii, 19-21), for the Lord Himself had said the same thing through Isaiah, "The strength of Pharaoh shall be your shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt your confusion, * * * for the Egyptians shall help in vain, and to no purpose" (Isa. xxx, 17). But when it came to exalting the king of Assyria above the living God and putting Him on a level with idols, the gods of the nations, that was unbearable, and to such blasphemy the people held their peace, and at the king's commandment answered not a word (xviii, 28-30, 33-30). This brought Hezekiah in humility to his knees and to the Lord in whom he so fully trusted at the beginning. To mere words we should be able to not according to Ps. xxxviii, 13, "I as a deaf man heard not, and I was as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth."

When it is a bad letter or writing of any kind, then we can spread it before the Lord and commit to Him, as Hezekiah did (xix, 14, 15). Our desire should always pre-eminently be that God might be magnified before others, and we should remember that as creator of heaven and earth nothing is too hard for Him (xix, 15-19; Jer. xxxii, 17). When the servants of Hezekiah sent to Isaiah about it his words from the Lord were full of comfort (xix, 6, 7), "Be not afraid of the words which thou hast heard, with which the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed Me. Reboh I will send a blast upon him. * * * and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land." After Hezekiah had spread the letter before the Lord and prayed; the Lord sent through Isaiah a granly comforting reply, saying among other things concerning Sennacherib, "I know thy abode, and thy going out, and thy coming in, and thy rage against Me. * * * I will put my hook in thy nose, and my bridle in they lips, and I will turn thee back by the way by which thou camest."

Then to Hezekiah He said, "I will defend this city to save it for mine own sake, and for my servant, David's sake" (xix, 27, 28, 34). The blast of which He spoke is described in xix, 35. It is grand to trust in the Lord at all times and to pour out our heart before Him, for power belongeth unto God (Ps. lxii, S, 11). All the defiance and lying and blasphemies of past ages shall come to a head in the willful king of Dan. vil, 8, 20; xi, 36; who shall speak marvelous things against the God of gods and prosper for a time, but he shall come to his end and none shall help him (Dan. xi, 45). He is also the man of sin, the son of perdition, of 2 Thess. ii, 3-10, and the great blasphemer of Rev. xiii, 4-7, who will dare even to fight against God, but he with his companion, the false prophet, shall be sent alive to the lake of fire, at the same time that the devil shall be shut up in the pit by the same Lord God, who heard and answered the prayer of Hezekiah (Rev. xvii, 14xv, 23)

Text of the Lesson, Isa. iv, 1-13—Memory Verses, 1, 2—Golden Text, Isa. n.
6—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D.
M. Stearna.
The last part of Isaiah, chapters xl to lxvl, may be said to begin and end with comfort for his people, Israel, in connection with His coming in glory (xl, 1, 2, 10, 11; lxvl, 13, 15, 18), and, as then will be the overthrow of their enemies there is an easy connection between the last lesson and this. These last twenty-seven chapters of Isaiah are easily divided into three nines, the first and second of which end with the same words, "No peace, saith the Lord or saith my God, to the wicked" (xlviii, 22; lvii, 21). Our lesson today is in the middle nine, and the middle chapter of this nine is the fifty-third, which tells of the only way of peace for any sinner or for all sinners. The next chapter tells of God's unchanging loving kindness for Israel and of their future establishment in righteousness by their Redeemer, the God of the whole earth (lvv, 5-14). Today's lesson chapter is a cry to all who thirst to come to the God of Israel, the fountain of living waters (Jer. II, 13). All that is represented by living water, wine and milk has been provided fully at infinite cost and is offered freely to whosoever will, according to Rev. xxl, 6; xxii, 17; John iv, 14; vil, 37. Love cannot be bought, nor can any of the gifts of God, but He says, "I will heal their backsliding; I will love them freely" (Hos. xlv, 4: 8. of Sol, vill, 7; Rom. iii, 24).
Spending money for that which is not bread reminds us of His words to the 7,000, "Labor not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of Man shall give unto you" (John vi. 27). The words "Horken diligently unto Me, * * * hear and your son shall live" (verses 2, 3). are very like John v. 24, where we learn that hearing and believing His word give everlasting life and the assurance of not coming into judgment for our sins. In the study of all prophecy we must remember that His thoughts are first for Israel and then for all nations, but there is always a message for every individual believer, whether Jew or gentile, as we have already seen. The sure mercles of David take us to the covenant ordered in all things and sure which comforted David in his dying hours (II Sam. xxill, 5; vii. 10).
There is only one Leader and Commander who can rule Israel, even the one who brought them all of Egypt and put them in the raised land and gave them judges all kings and always delivered them when they cried unto Him. He of whom the Lord said to Jeremiah, "I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper and shall execute judgment and justice in Lee earth."
His name shall be called the Lord Our Righteousness (Jer, xxii, 5, 6). See also Isa, ix, 6, 7; Luke 1, 31-33. Nations have never yet in all the history of the world turned to the Lord as nations, but when Israel shall have become a righteous nation by receiving their Messiah at His coming again in power and glory, then shall be full filled such words as these: "The nations shall come to Thy light and kings to the brightness of Thy rising;" "Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion, for, lo, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the Lord, and many nations shall be joined to the Lord in that day and shall be My people" (Isa, xxv, 8, 9; lx, 1-3; Zech, ii, 10, 11). Lesson verses 6, 7, seem to be a call to individuals now and at all times, and what great encouragement there is to all sinners to turn to the Lord in the offer of abundant pardon and mercy! The Lord loves to do all things abundantly, whether it be giving life or an entrance into His kingdom or supplying a present need, and if we will only deal rightly with Him He promises more blessing than we can receive (John x, 10; II Pet. i, 11; Matt xiv, 20; Mal. iii, 10).
The seeking means earnest, persistent, whole hearted turning to Him (Jer. xxiv, 7; xxix, 13). Verses 8, 9, should teach us the folly of our thoughts and ways, inasmuch as His are as far above ours as the heavens are higher than the earth. Yet there are so many who know not the thoughts, of the Lord, either concerning His great and free salvation or His purpose in this age and the ages to come (Mic. lv, 12; Eph. ill, 11). Verses 10, 11, are especially grand words for rainy or snowy days, but good at all times. When I have given the Lord's message I am continually comforted by the assurance that it always accomplishes His pleasure and never returns to Him void and that results are sure, whether we see them or not. Words that go well with these are: "I will watch over my word to perform it" and "No word from God shall be void of power" (Jer. 1, 12, R. V.; Luke 1, 37, R. V.).
If only we are the Lord's messengers with the Lord's message (Hag. 1, 13) we can always go on our way saying, Thank God, that will work. Some look for so many souls from a service or other definite results of their own desire, but it seems to me better to give the message and leave results to Him, always expecting them and sure of them, but leaving it to Him to accomplish His pleasure and knowing that in due time He shall see of the travail of His soul) and be satisfied (ill. 11).

Private Harrell, who is in France, to
is wife, Mrs."N, M, Harrell, 00 But—
ier street, Waycross, Ga. : '
France, November 23rd, 1918
My dear Wife:
I received two letters trom you last
night and one from my mother and one
from my sister Ada. I am well and
fveling fine,especially sinee I received
last night’s mail. This letter is my
Christmas letter. Today every so!-
dier over here is advised to write home
telling the fulks where he is and what
he is doing. I'll teil you a few things
but others I relate to you when I come
back. I have been on the firing line
ever since the night of August 2ist
That night about two o'clock we climb:
ed a hill about a mile and a half Jong
going up on the front. The night was
very dark and we had to stop and rest
about every 100 yards, because the hill
was so steep. This sector was known
as Vorges Sector. We'stayed on this
front about 30 days before we were re
Meved, We did not lose very many
men, a few being gassed, but I think
the most of them got over it. One
night we were gassed three times and
it was pretty tough, I tell you. Now
we are on the Metz sector, our regiment
headquarters being in a little French
town about 10 miles almost directly
behind the city of Metz, I was on 4
telephone station between two hills
that are called Death’s Valley with
cur first battalién that was holding
the front line trenches on the day the
armistice was signed. We had been
mn this front for about 22 days when
he fighting ceased. We are now at
1 little town called Montaville, and
ire living in dugouts under the ground
‘bout 30 or 40 feet deep. The near-|,
st big town is Ponto Mousson. ‘The
phabitants all moved out! of the town,
nly soldiers staying here because of
he fierce bambardment of the Ger-
uins. But now the inhabitants. are
ack and I tell you it was a sad sight
9 see them return to their home al?

fa few weeks ago’ I cannot begun
> tell you of the awful herrors of
lis War and"the vist amount of deviy'
ition visited upon the once beautiful
rench villages. I tell you, Sherman
as right when he said War is Heil.
feourse we are all looking forward
ith much pleasurable anticipation tof
we time when we ere to return to the rN
fates, and we hope that time will not
» long. Ofcourse I won't be home

yu and give one blessing that I was

MRS. MARY NELSON JONES Grand Worthy Counsellor of the Grand Court Order of Calanthe, under Jurisdietiin of K. of P. of Georgia., N. A., S. A., E. A. A. and A. Augusta, Ga., January 21, 1910. To the Grand Court Officers, Grand Representatives. Members of the Grand Court, Members of the Courts and Juvenile Courts:
Following in the foot-steps of my lamented predecessor, it becomes my pleasant duty to remind you that another "Booster" campaign has been put on. Conditions have changed since our last annual meeting. The Dove of Peace flies over our heads and our Supreme Ruler is still conqueror of the world.
Prosperity is evident everywhere, and our Grand and Noble Order must take advantage of it and add Five Thousand members by June 30th. Therefore, I, Mary Nelson Jones, Grand Worthy Counsellor of the Grand Court of Calanthe of the juris-diction aforesaid, do declare to all the Courts of Calanthe of the Knights of Pythias in the jurisdiction aforesaid to put on a "Booster" campaign for new members, beginning January 15th, and continuing ninety days therefrom. It behooves every officer and member to bring at least one new applicant during this campaign, and I shall expect nothing less.
Each Court is hereby authorized to initiate members for $1.50, not including medical examination. Deputy Grand Worthy Counsellors will take notice that the fee for reorganization of all new Courts during this Booster Campaign will be $2.85. This includes medical examination, and the Deputy's fee.
Medical blanks are 25 cents per dozen. Order all badges through this of tice. Court badges are 65c each and Juvenile badges are 55 cents each.
I shall expect every Court in the jurisdiction to comply with the above declaration.
Given under our hand and seal this 15th day of January 1919.

ing, Pittsburg, Pa., offers an opportunity to the colored people to invest a small sum with absolute safety of getting good returns within a short time. These men have formed this company with an incorporated capital of $200,000, divided into 20,000 shares at $10,00 a share par value, for the purpose of developing the minerals from the 10,000 acres of land they own near Oakland, Maryland. Located in the Blue Ridge Mountains, Garratt County. This land is rolling and a portion of it is adapted to agriculture and fruit.
The mineral products consist of three veins of coal, limestone, glass sand, fire clay, and kaolin, also sufficient timber for mining. The Yougliogheny River divides this land, all of this assures good facilities for Colonization and Mining purposes. The corporation offers to the public an acre of land and one share of stock for $125.00 on easy payments each month until paid for, however, reserving the right to mine the minerals at a royalty of 10 cents per ton to be paid monthly to each acre holder and a dividend on the share of stock every six months from the net profits. An absolute clear and perfect warrant deed is guaranteed on each acre sold.
Anywhere we can secure from 100 to 200 members. we will secure railroad siding for a coal yard to furnish each and every member coal at rates about one half (1-2) the price obtained from other people as they will be stockholders in the company. This rate to stockholders only. We will also establish an office in such cities which will employ people of our race to manage it. Where there are 200 members, we will ask the members to appoint a representative for the people, who will be on the Board of Directors, and will look after the welfare of the members.

In Memory
Monroe—In fond memory of our lov- ed ones whose "home-going" occurred in the month of January in different years.
Mrs. Hettle M. Jefferson, January 10th, 1891.
Mrs. Selina Monroe, January 11th,
1883.
Miss Lydia Lee Carey, January 15th
1918.
Mrs. Matilda M. Monroe, January 27th
1912.
O these parting scenes will end,
Some sweet day,
We shall find each broken link,
Some sweet day by and by,
Then the stars that fading here,
Left our hearts, and home so drear,
We shall see more bright and clear,
Some swoot day by and by.
Andrew M. Monroe and family,
Monroe—In sad and loving remembrance of our dear mother, Matilda M. Monroe, who died seven years ago, January 27th, 1912.
We are sad yet we rejoice, knowing that her soul liveth now in heaven, that she still watches over us, that she was a mother,—for what is more blessed or more divine, or who is more worthy of entering the kingdom of heaven than a real mother who never forsakes her children, and she was all, of this and more to us. May we all meet again and spend our time rejoicing around the throne of Jesus Christ.
Her devoted daughters,
Essie L. Monroe Edwards
Amabel I. Monroe Trice
Addins—In loving memory of our devoted mother and grandmother, who departed this life January 28th, 1914.
Dear mother, since you've gone.
The voice we loved is stilled.
The place made vacant in our hearts
Can never more be filled.
More and more we miss you,
Some may think the wound is healer,
But little they know the sorrow
That within our hearts we feel.
We shall meet beyond the river,
And the darkness shall be over.
With the toilsome journey done
And the glorious battle won.
There our tears shall all cease flowing
And with sweetest rapture knowing
All the blest ones who have gone
To the land of life and song

More and more each day we miss you,
Friends may think the wound is healed
But they little know the sorrow,
That lies within our hearts concealed
Peaceful be your rest dear mother.
It is sweet to call your name.
In life we loved you dearly.
In death it remains the same.
Your memory is as dear today.
As in the hour you passed away.
When days are gloomy, and friends are
Dear Mother, it is then, we long for you
