Negroes To Teach In Negro.Schools of Charleston
Negroes To Teach In Negro.Schools of Charleston
WHITE TEACHERS WILL BE DISPLACED NEXT YEAR
National Association Colored People Takes Leading Part in Fight
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People thru its national secretary, John R. Shillady of New York announces that the long fight to secure for trained colored teachers the right to teach in the colored public schools of Charleston, S. C., has at last been won.* Since the Civil War colored children have been taught in the public schools of Charleston by Southern white teachers.
In that city, according to reports of Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, published in 1916 by the United States Bureau of Education on "Negro Education in the United States," there were five schools for whites and three for colored in Charleston, employing 91 teachers in the white schools and 52 in the colored, all of the teachers being as already stated, of the white race.
Although a large number of the colored men and women of Charleston had prepared themselves to teach by graduating from the various teacher training schools of the country, these qualified young people were forced to seek employment as teachers outside of Charleston because of this custom. While many of the white teachers in the colored schools were conscientious and painstaking in their work with colored pupils, a sympathetic spirit was not always shown by others of the teaching forces of the various colored schools.
The fight to secure for these colored teachers the right to teach in these schools has been waged for 32 years, and the Association's branches thru out the state have been taking a prominent part in the fight since their organization. Recently the School Commissioners of Charleston, under threat of the enactment of a law by the state legislature of South Carolina to relieve this situation, spread upon their records a resolution to the effect that beginning in 1920, the colored schools would be turned over to colored teachers.
The facts in the case are given in the excerpts below from a letter to the Association from the president of its Columbia, S. C., branch:
"I am proud to say that we have won the fight for Negro teachers in the public schools of Charleston. After the legislature told the School Commissioners of the City of Charleston that if they did not come to some agreement with the petitioners, they would pass the bill giving relief prayed for, they passed a resolution agreeing to turn the schools over to Negro teachers in 1920. This was agreed to by the petitioners. The resolution was spread upon the journals of both houses of the legislature. The consensus of opinion is that the white teachers will resign after the present term. This is the culmination of a fight whic was started thirty-two years ago. Let us continue to fight until twelve millions of Americans are 'physically free from peonage, mentally free from ignorance, politically free from disfranchisement and socially free from insult.'

New West] Side Subdivision Being Offered For Sale
FINELY LOCATED TRACT BEING HANDLED BY G. H. BOWEN
Considered the Best Subdivision He Has Offered for Sale
A new subdivision, known as Cherokee Heights, and situated on Lathrop avenue and Bay street extension, is the latest tract being offered to Negroes of the city as home sites. This tract will undoubtedly prove an attractive proposition to many Negroes as it is but a stone's throw away from the busy westside manufacturing district and situated on high ground.
This subdivision which is being handled by G. H. Bowen, the hustling Negro real estate man who so successfully developed Cann Park, Central Park and Hope Crest, contains about $00 kios. Mr. Bowen considers it the best proposition he has yet offered and expects to "clean up" the sales in record time. The laboring mtn especially will be interested in this new proposition as it is located so near the plants where many thousands of them are employed. The lots will range in price from $250 to $600.

FIFTH AVENUE CHEERS NEGRO VETERANS Men of the 369th, Back from Fields of Valor, Acclaimed by Thousands
FINE SHOW OF DISCIPLINE
Harlem Mad with Joy Over Return of Its Own—'Black Death' Hailed as Conquering Hero The New York Times of February 18th, carries the following interesting account of the home coming of the famous 360th Infantry, formerly the 15th New York Regiment, from the battlefields if Europe:
New York's Negro soldiers, bringing with them from France one 'of the bravest record achieved by any organization in the war, marched amidst waving flags and cheering crowds yester day from Twenty-third street and Fifth avenue to 145th street and Lenox avenue.
New York gave a big welcome to the 2,900 men, led by Colinel William Hay ward, forming the 369th Infantry, formerly the Fifteenth Regiment of the New York National Guard, and the first veteran regiment of New York troops to return.
The Negro soldiers were astonished at the hundred of thousands who turned out to see them, and New Yorkers, in their turn, were mightily impressed by the magnificent appearance of these fighting men, who looked the part of a regiment which had been cited as a whole for bravery and 191 of whose members had won individual recognition.
Swinging up the avenue; keeping a step springy with the swagger of men proud of themselves and their organization, their rows of bayonets glancing in the sun, dull-painted steel basins on their heads, they made a spectacle that might justify pity for the Germans and explain why the boches gave them the title of the "Bloodthirsty black men."
On the average the regiment is made up of big men. With their overcoats, trench hats, and bayonet-tipped guns, the impression of their bigness was lightened, and whole platoons seemed to be made up of men of seven feet or over. Most of them were grim visaged from force of habit when marching or at attention, and the helmet thin straps added a hardened touch so New York got a pretty fair idea of how they had impressed the Germans.
Colonel William Hayward said the reception was certainly the greatest that returned soldiers ever got, and that the only worry that he had had was that his soldiers, after mouths of fighting and a long voyage, might have forgotten their parade manners, and lost step under the excitement of the cheering crowds. But his men showed as little nervousness on Fifth Avenue, as they did on the roads in the Champagno. They marched with careless natural precision of men who had long ago mastered the technique of their profession.
All along the line of march they heard joyously noisy greetings from their personal friends among the tens of thousands of black men and women on the sidewalks, but rarely did a marcher give sign of recognition. Sometimes a man in the ranks would greet a friend or relative with a flash of teeth and a nod that was no more than a slight exaggeration of the natural swaying march of the lead.
marched under a shower of cigarette. At Thirty-fourth Street the men marched under a shower of cigarettes and candy, and such tokens were pitched a them at other points along the line, but the files did not waver for an instant. The gifts made no more impression on discipline than might dust or rain on an ordinary march. It was different, however, when the chocolate and cigarette showers fell upon the veterans halted, and "at rest." The goodies were acceptable, and were received with shouts and smiles. From the windows of a building at Twenty-seventh Street some one started a shower of silver coins upon soldiers standing at attention. The command "at rest" came opportunely as the jingle of silver on steel helmets was heard, and the coins were pocketed as momentoes of the last phase of the war.
and The crowds found soldiers who collaborate in gaety and enthusiasm after the marchers had passed. They were in motor trucks, ambulances of

Colonel Huyward, who walked at the head of his men, the he was just recovering from a wound, was the individual star of the first section of the parade, but the big man in the conconvalescents' section was Sergeant ploit, was described and commended in an order General Pershing. Johnson and Private Needham Roberts, both wounded, fought to a standsill, an attacking party of twenty-two Germans, and left several of them on the field. Johnson cut up his men with a bolo knife, after his gun had jammed. So famous is Johnson, that an imposter made himself rich
Henry stood up in his machine, al- with gifts he received, merely by posing as the great fighter. most thruon the parade, waving a big handful of red lilies, which had been presented to him by admirers on arrival of the regiments from Long Island City on the Thirty-fourth Street ferry. His picture is nearly as well known in upper Harlem as that of General Pesshing elsewhere in the country.
Shouts of "Oh, you Henry Johnson," and "Oh, you Black Death," resounded every few feet for 'seven' long miles, followed by condolences for the Kaiser's men. Johnson made a big hit at Sixtieth Street, where officials and members of the Mayor's committee including William Randolph Hearst, were in the reviewing stand, but up in Harlem, where the reviewers looked over the parade from a stand at 130th Street and Lennox Avenue, he threw the population into hysteries.
The welcome to the Harlem regiment reached its maximum at the up-town stand, where the Negroes on their own ground, greeted their own boys. For blocks along Lennox Avenue, each way from the reviewing stand, the sidewalks were packed like the sub-way in a rush hour. The windows were filled with faces, and the roofs were held in force. Thousands of flags fluttered, American flags, service flags, "Welcome Home" banners, square pieces of bunting with a composito of all the flags of the Allies. "Welcome to our Victorious boys" was painted in huge characters on a building opposite the stand.
Thousands and thousands of rattlesnakes, the emblem of the 360th, each snake coiled ready to strike, appeared everywhere, in buttonholes, in shop windows and on banners carried by the crowd.
Scores of little black boys appeared on the sidewalks and on the grand stand in full uniform, with rattlesnakes on their shoulders, tiny editions of their gallant fathers, and many young women wore costumes adapted from service overcoats and hats.
When the soldiers finally arrived in their own part of Harlem, the multitude went wild with joy. Each person in the throng seemed to be shouting to particular soldier and begging for a glance of recognition, till the unison of voices became a mighty roar, such as Harlem had never before heard.
The crowds were too big for the police preparations, so that the Harlem crowds broke into the streets to be

FIFTH AVENUE CHEERRS NEGRO VETERANS
(Continued from pag 2) near their friends and relatives, and formed little annexes to the marching platoons. That was the nearest they could get to their soldiers, who kept their ranks and marched steadily ahead, in spite of the eager swarm of civilians at their heels.
Men and women who could not win a glance from their friends in the line contented themselves with counting the crosses and decorations which adorned one or more in nearly every file. William Morgan, of 428 East Ninety-seventh Street and James Eavies, of 111 West 137th Street, both wounded men cited for bravery, and sent home several weeks ahead of the regiment, were the big show before the paraders arrived. When their comrades marched up, they hobbled into line with them.
Lieut. James Europe, in spite of reports that he was down with pneumonia, was at the head of his celebrated band, whose "jazz" was in demand among the American soldiers in all parts France. He confined himself to dignified music all thru the parade yesterday. The band started to playing at G o'clock in the morning, and played incessantly during the railroad journey from Camp Upton to this city, and continued to play thru most of the march. They had little breath left, but made a brave effort when they finally got into their own community. Five of the instruments of the band, were bettle drums, presented by the French as a mark of esteem in which the regiment was held by the French comrades. The 369th regiment did all of its fighting with the French. Another drum, which was beaten by Willie Webb of Louisville, Ky., was a trophy left behind by the Germans, when, in an engagement in the Champagne, they were driven back so rapidly that they lost interest in bulky impedimenta.
At the end of their march, the regiment was carried in special sub-way trains to the 71st Regiment Armory at Thirty-fourth Street and Park Ave to be feasted and entertained, but it was after four o'clock before the boys got around to their chicken dinner.
As soon as the soldiers started down town, so did thousands and thousands of their relatives and friends, particularly the young women. All of the subway trains were jammed with them, and all spaces about the Armory were packed with women and girls, more than 10,000 of them, and a few men and children. The soldiers reformed in Park Avenue, near the subway exits, and the welcomers were crowded to the sidewalk with difficulty by the police. When the soldiers stood at rest, it was conversation time for them and the crowd on the sidewalk, so that the whole neighborhood was soon ringing with laughter.
The women about the Armory made a brilliant piece of scenery, most of them clad in furs, coats of bright lines, waving plumes and striking millinery. Gold earrings of impressive size, glinted, as their wearers shrieked and shouted with laughter.
The good natured New York policemen, trained to handle all races without friction, were generally models of kindness in dealing with mothers, anxious to break thru to see their sons, and girls eager to embrace their idols.
"Now, sister, you can't get thru here said a policemen, restraining an excited girl. Just wait a day or two and he will be home."
Won From Chicago Templation
Many of the soldiers did not linger to pick the chicken bones clean, but hurried out to the street, looking for mothers and sweethearts. The first to appear was identified by shouts of "Johnny," and a whole family broke forth the police line, and hung themselves upon his neck. By the time he got to the sidewalk, he was encrusted with a whole neighborhood. Some of the policemen took advantage of the current toward this first "free" soldier, to increase the circulation on the pavement.
"Run along now, there's your Johnny," said a policeman to a young woman who had anchored herself.
"I don't want no Johnny, I won't 'Sam,' she replied."
Sam arrived a few minutes later, got some resounding smacks, and stood with his arms around the girl talking, until she pleaded nervously that they might be arrested if they stayed too long on one spot.
"There ain't no man, going to arrest you this day," said Sam. Others popped out from the Armory, one after another, and each soon looked like an opposition half-back with whole female foot ball team on his back. Each man was complimented on his grand appearance by his women folk, and all agreed that war had

wrought improvement. Most of the boys were wearing the war mustache, about three quarters of an inch from tip to tip, close cropped as as they are affected by dashing officers. Each o. these adornments produced its individual sensation, rivaling even the medals and wound stripes, dented helmets, scars and other proofs of valor.
Seeking a Place in the Sun Women and girls, who either had ment, or could not find him hung a claim upon any one man in the reg bout the groups that had appropriated a veteran, yearning for a chance to take some part in the proceedings
An undeniably pretty girl, in a handsome red coat, and her mother, in real seal skins, found an unclaimed veteran outside the army, and set things in motion by inquiries about his helmet. He showed it, and explained its uses and history. His stripes, belt and medals were next in the order of business. By that time, the hero was securely in the net, and soon was guiding the beauty by the arm thru the crowd at the intrance to the Armory, her mother chaperoning.
The men and their friends packed th Armory. The white officers of the regiment, mostly big men, bemedaled and swelling with pride over their Negro soldiers, could not have been more courteous and attentive to the visitors than if the affair had taken place in the White House, holding long conversations with Negro mothers wearing gold stars.

SATURDAY MARCH 1ST 1919
REGISTER NOW!
There is greater interest in Negro registration in Georgia and the South, right now, than ever before. Campaigns are on in several of the large cities, and a strenuous campaign is about to be launched here. Many men, who never registered before, but now conscious of the importance of it, are going up to pay their poll taxes and register.
Strange enough, a good many white men, we hear, who never before conceded to Negroes the right of suffrage, are now willing to grant that Negroes shall have a larger participation in the affairs of government. The conscieney of these men are goading them to the right. They are coming to realise that black soldiers fought to save the ideals and countries of white men, and that there can be no consideration too dear for them.
All movements for Negro betterment depend for their success upon the voluntary good graces of those whose aid and support in their behalf are sought and enlisted. There is no silent force of demand for just consideration beneath the appeal and petition of Negroes for justice in the award of public benefits and the dealing of justice in the courts.
The vote alone is power. The voteless man is powerless, and henceforth will be in contempt before those who feel the consciousness of manhood and who elate under political helplessness.
Negroes have no word in directing the affairs of the government under which they live. No wonder then that all benefits of good schools, public improvements and opportunity go to others.
The Negro force badly in the courts in many jurisdictions; he suffers industrial slavery; the Negro common school is a disgrace in most locality with little or no equipment and confidence and inefficient teaching because of poor pay; the Negro experiences Jim-Crowlism and discrimination everywhere, and this is growing.
We can only be saved by the ballot. We must qualify, prepare, and fight for this most sacred of all rights of citizenship guaranteed us by the Constitution of the United States and won and deserved by Negro men in all the possible ways, from clearing the forests and fields of this land, to the sacrificed of his life to save it.
What man today, can come out in denial of this right? What just and logical reason can be offered?
Shall we continue to sleep, or shall we go forward in the only avenue of salvation? Let us answer by registering, now.
DEAD HEROES
We are all-very much interested in that-part of the plans of the General Celebration committee which delates to memorializing those black boys from Chatham county, who gave their lives to America in the war; whether from disease in the camps or from wounds in the trenclies on the battlefields. They are all heroes, alike, and we must regard them honorable and deserving alike. Mr. J. S. Perry, registrar and statistician of the general committee, is collecting the record concerning these and when his roster is complete we shall find that Chatham county groes went unfinchingly to the altar of supreme sacrifice.
Willie Cusbort, a local Negro, was the first man from Chatham county to give his life overseas after the United States formally entered the war. A fitting memorial of some permanent character must be made, in granite or memorial institution or what not. It has been suggested that each church or other organization plant a tree near its entrance, with appropriate memorial exercises, for all those who went to war from its ranks. This would be fine, and it could be done all over the land, even in the smallest villages.
We propose a day of national celebration for Negroes, when particular attention could be given to the brilliant service of Negroes in the war, and when the American people could be seriously impressed with the merit and valor of the Negro as a national asset. We propose May 7th, 1919.
MEETING AT PEKIN THEATER Mr. A. L. Tucker, chairman of the Negro committee for returned soldiers, has called a meeting of the soldier for tomorrow afternoon at 4 o'clock at the Pekin theater to prepare for the parade of given Tuesday.

THANKS GIVING PROCLAMATION
Office of the Grand Worthy Counsellor, Grand Court of Calanthe of North America, South America, Europe, Asia Africa and Australia; jurisdiction of Georgia, 1233 Mauge street, Augusta, Ga., February 20, 1919.
To the Grand Court officers, grand representatives, members of the grand court, worthy counsellors and members of the subordinate courts throughout Goor, In.
Greetings:
In compliance with the law, it becomes my duty to remind you that in its onward progress, the order of Calanthe has reached another mile stone.
When we look back we realize as never before, that we should be humbly and proudly grateful to God for the goodness and mercy that has spared us to celebrate an anniversary at the dawn of a new day.
One year ago war and pestilence reigned the world over. Many of us were called upon to send our husbands, brothers and sons across the great Atlantic to fight and die, that "Freedom for all forever" might be a fact rather than a slogan.
"There's not to reason why, Their's but to do and die."
With prayers and tears we laid our
supplication upon the Allies of Service and
now when the Dove of Peace flies triumphantly over our heads, let the
Georgina Calantzians join with the Order
the world even to give thanks to
an Shipin2 Ships for pop esquity
through a year of strifq into one of peace.
Therefore, I, Mary Nelson Jones,
grand worthy counsellor, do hereby pro-
claim and designate Sunday, March
23rd, 1919, as the day set apart for our
Annual Thanksgiving Service.
Let us give thanks and rejoice:
1. For what America has done to bring peace to the world.
2. For the brave Negro soldiers who have proved loyal and true.
3. For those who made the supreme sacrifices and those who returned to us.
4. For the growth and encouraging outlook of the Order of Calanthe in Georgia.
Finally, let us be thankful for the life and service of our late lamented Rosa Lou Barnes, sacrificed upon the altar of Calanthism.
I shall expect every court in our jurisdiction to repair to a church or hall, and if possible co-operate to the fullest extent with the K. of P. in your town or city to make this the most memorable occasion in the history of the Order.
Let me urge each Court to go properly regaled.
Order your badges from this office. Court badges are 75 cents each. All orders must be in the office by the 10th of March.
Programs from this office or Grand Chancellor's office, $1.75 per hundred.
Members failing to comply with the above proclamation without lawful excuse and so accepted by their Court, must pay the penalty.
Given under my hand and seal of the Grand Court of Calanthe at Augusta, Ga., this 20th day of February. A D. 1919.
Yours in F. H. and L..

CARD OF THANKS
Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Durant of 1 Sixth street wish to thank the friends and neighbors for the liberal surprise tendered them Friday night, February 14th.
The five local companies of the First Georgia Regiment, U. R., K. of P., with its band are making every effort to go to Atlanta in July to attend the Grand Lodge, and they have several entertainments on foot to help defray the expenses of the trip. One of the series of entertainments will take place Monday night at the Duffy Street hall. They are asking the members of the several lodges and the Courts of Calanthe to purchase a ticket. The uniform rank is the 'lilly of the order and should be encouraged in its efforts. The First Regiment, under the leadership of Col. C. S. Andrews, has stood the exodus and drafting periods. All Savannah should feel proud of her because she stood the test. The five local companies want to go with full ranks, won't you help them by attending their entertainment on Monday night, or by purchasing a ticket? The price of admission is 25 cents.—Adr.

Harris—In sad and heartfelt memory of our dear father who entered into eternal rest February 25th, 1917.
Two years ago you left us, dear,
Two years of sorrow with you not here,
Your loving, tender heart is stilled,
This aching void cannot be filled.
We sought for you long, but all in vain,
To heaven you have gone, no more in pain.
Time moves on in rapid pace,
Soon we shall see you face to face.
We loved you, but God saw best;
Sleep on, dear one, and take your rest!
A devoted wife and children: Wife, Mrs. Mary F. Harris, New York Daughters: Miss Tommie L. Harris Miss Bera Harris, Washington, D. C. Miss Helen Harris, New York City Son: Mr. Arthur Harris, Macon, Ga.
Goff—In sad but loving memory of my dear husband, William C. Goff, who departed this life February 24, 1918.
Farewell, Beloved; yet not farewell, For where you are, we too some day shall dwell.
here in Jesus' care.
Yet while I weep and call you dead,
Your are living in Jesus' soul instead;
For now I know, death is that breath
Which our souls draw when we enter
that Eternal Life.
Altho it pains, its Heaven's gain.
Devoted wife Mrs. P. A. Goff

Brown-In loving memory of my husband, Mr. Chas. II. Brown, who departed this earth, one year ago today, March 2nd, 1918.
Gently the stars are skining,
Down on his silent grave;
Where lies my dear husband sleeping,
The one I love, but could not save.
I often sit and think of him,
When I am all alone,
For memory is the only thing
That grief can call its own.
More and more each day I miss him,
Friends may think the wound is healed,
But they little know the sorrow
That kills within our hearts unscaled.
