The Savannah Tribune. Howard Universitya National Institution REV. EMORY B. SMITH, D. D., OF WASHINGTON, D. C. ADDRESSES LOCAL ALUMNI School No Longer to Maintain Secondary School Before a not large, but very appreciative audience, Rev. Emory B. Smith, D. D., pastor of Lincoln Temple Congregational Church, Washington, D. C.; delivered a powerful and inspiring address on Race Loyalty and consolidation in Reconstruction at St. Phillips Church, Monday night, April 28. The gift of his remarks was, that education is the foundation upon which is to be built the Lighest best future for the Negro, and that the race must grow to be loyal to itself, and its institutions of learning and consolidate in their improvement and development in these days of remaking, readjustment and change after the war. Said he, "Howard University is slowing signs of great progress in the period of reconstruction. Every effort is being taken to create an even larger interest in this universitythrought the United States, not as a sectional university, but as a notional university. Because of its national worth; because of its seat at the national capital, but primarily, because of its relation to the national government, receiving a large share of its support from the government, every Negro in the United States should take an interest and pride in Howard University as his own. To no individual, or group of individuals, in any center of the country is it the allotted duty to bring Howard University to its rightful place, as a national university, among American schools and universities. It is the rightful task of all to be accomplished by everyone bringing to bear his influence upon the national government to this effect. The trustees of th University, with the sanction of the government's special representative, Secretary of the Interior, to his end, have raised the standard in some departments, eliminated some and created others. The Commercial College of the standard of a secondary school has been raised to the standard of a collegiate institution under the name of the College of Business and Finance, leading to a degree; the Academy or secondary school has been eliminated; and the department of Journalism has been created. The Freshmen and Sophomores years of College have been consolidated into a Junior College, after the plan of Chicago and Yale Universities. In view of the fact, that Howard is no longer to maintain secondary school as feeder for the college, it is planned to stimulate the secondary schools thrust upon the country, by offering, as is very common in other higher institutions, scholarships of $50,00 a year, or $200,00 a course to energetic and ambitious graduates of secondary schools. These scholarships are to be afforded by alumni and undergraduates, in the various secondary school communities thrust upon the United States and abroad. Mr. Smith is a young man of sterling qualities. In ten years, he has come from the position of elevator boy in one of New York City's large department stores to the pastorate of congregations, and the President of the General Alumni Association of Howard University, numbering many thousand prominent and successful lay and professional men throughout the United States, South America, Africa, and many other isles of the seas. In the interest of his alma mater, Mr. Smith is on a tour of the South west and west, which is to last until the beginning of summer. The program for the evening, in addition to the address by Rev. Emory Smith, included an instrumental solo by Mrs. J. B. Horne, vocal solos by Mrs. W. L. Tibbs and Miss Mae Stewart, and a selection by the Georgia State College quartette On Tuesday afternoon, Rev. Smith visited the Georgia State College, and spoke after the devotional exercises. Mr. Smith was profuse in his expression of admiration of he natural beauty of Savannah, its climate and its zen. MR.

Charity Hospital New Building Fund Stopped FEDERATION FAILED TO LIVE UP TO AGREEMENT Permanent Hospital Building Fund Still in Effect The following is the statement given out yesterday by the officials of the Charity Hospital as to the reason the Federation of Negro Women's Clubs $10,000 campaign for the building fund of Charity Hospital was brought to an abrupt close last week: To the Citizens of Saranagh: Some time last summer a request came from the Federation of Negro Women Clubs stating that they desired to do something good and great and lasting for the Negro. They asked that they be permitted to raise, of their own volition, $50,000 for the purpose of building a new Charity Hospital. The only condition attached by them was that they be aided as best they could by the trustees of Charity Hospital and be permitted to use the name and influence of Charity Hospital. This permission was given by the Charity Hospital with a distinct agreement that they were to make complete reports from time to time to the Board of Trustees and deposit all monies collected in the name and behalf of Charity Hospital to the credit of Charity Hospital Fund. The canvass began and every church, lodge and citizen knows in what name and for what purpose this money was claimed to have been collected. There were "Tag Days", and goods and produce were given by friends and merchants, and no one was deceived as to the purpose of the donations—the building of a new Charity Hospital. As the canvass progressed, the trustees gently asked that the Federation live up to its promise and make the reports arrived to and make proper disposition of the funds collected. The trustees called for these reports and this money again and again and each time they had been refused adequate reports and refused proper disposition of the money collected. On April 25, 1919 at a meeting called for the purpose, becoming weary of t he constant evasion, the trustees gently informed the Federation that unless they lived up to the agreement in making these reports and depositing this money as agreed the canvass would be discontinued after May 1, 1919. The Federation in spite of its agreement, in spite of its acknowledged purpose of the collection of this money, before this communication reached them called off the canvass and all activities for the collection of this money for the new hospital building and wilfully and purposely undertook to distribute and disipate funds entrusted to them, by giving checks to a number of people of the city of Savannah on this fund. The trustees have stated the above facts that the good people of Savannah both white and colored may see that there was nothing else for them to do but protect the interest of the hospital as best they could. In view of all the various slumberous rumors that have been set afloat by interested partisans, men and women concerning the hospital and the trustees of the hospital there are several facts connected with this affair that can not help but envelop the leaders of the Federation in a cloud that can not and will not reflect credit and honor. The hospital is still there, still has a building fund and now is the time when those who believe in fair play and the rectitude of purpose of the hospital and its management to come to it and by words act and money rally to its support. If you have contributions send them direct to Mrs. Saulter, matron. All amounts will be promptly acknowledged and thankfully received Signed. Board of Trustees of Charity Hospital DR.

Savannah is proud to welcome home her heroes, returned from the exploits and sacrifices of war. It is no little or unworthy occasion which turns the people out by the thousands, in rejoicing and handshaking and fellowship next Wednesday. The heroes of war will be honored by the patriots of peace, in a day when the costs and fruits of war are yet in doubt; but mothers and fathers will rejoice, and be glad that their sons have had a hand in bringing whatever laurels have come to our nation; wives and sweethearts will feel a pride and delight that those sons on the battlefields have "quitted themselves like men." It is fitting and honorable and sensible that the whole city should turn out—stop the whirr of machines, the rattle of traffic and the barter of the market-place; to mark the achievement of those picked men of the race, who offered their best to stay the hand of the foes of a nation; to help to establish peace and liberty; to preserve a nation's dignity and traditions. We believe we know how the people think, and what they feel. We ourselves, experiencing the conflicting emotions and ideas of the distressing political and social conditions under which we live. We have wondered about war, and what the much-sought democracy of successful war would mean to our people, who put their increment of power into the program to win it—and, alas, we have seen some of the results, if surface indications augur, the deeper-laid consequences. But we have hope. We have faith in the ultimate triumph of right, to bring a practical democracy to earth amongst men. And, then, we take fresh courage and march on to our tasks. So let's not fail to see the broader aspect of possibility, and the more fundamental concepts of world movements and programs, and labor to prepare a coming generation of our children to meet the competition and stress of the future—a future more to be determined by the fitness of men than by standards of color and creed. Let's rejoice, then, in our strong, young men, our soldier boys, who took a full man's risk and responsibility at the cantonments and in the trenches in France, and whose record is known of all the world, fighting by their sides. It takes men to make soldiers, real men, because the going is hard and exacting of strength of body, mind and character; and our boys proved they had it. Let's make it a day of halledujahs, and yet let's give it a dignity and a meaning, like into the solitary, thinking protest of the manly and self-respecting. Let's give honor to our men. A DEPT OF HONOR The Negro subscribers to the Savannah War Chest Association have not kept their pledges with that organization. A very few have lived up to their promises, sacredly and seriously made, but the great majority have defaulted and have made a miserable record. Their promises were made voluntarily, during the stress of war, and were signed by the subscribers. These pledges are as enforceable and as binding as any other promissory obligation. As such, they are collectible by law. Many Negro citizens, in fact the vast majority, of our people, were quick to assume their just share of the added burdens and responsibilities of war conditions; they did assume them; and lived up to them nobly, patriotically and faithfully. There can be no criticism of the great majority of our people. The fear is, however, that these delinquent subscribers to the War Chest Association, (embracing those who subscribed in the first campaign) will an unsavory reputation to the race. It will be bad to have it said that the "Colored people fell down miserably," merely because a few of the faithless failed to keep their pledges. May we not urge that every person who subscribed in the campaign, whose signed promise is recorded with the War Chest Association headquarters at the Hibernia Bank, will arrange to pay three pledges at once. This is a debt of honor, and it should be paid. Failure to do so will bring dishonor and discredit to one whole race in Savannah.

So, thon art gone to the grave, we no longer behold those nor tread the rough path of the world by thy side, but the wide arms of mercy are spread to enfold thee. Brother, thon art gone to rest, we will not weep for thee, thy spirit longed to be, thy toils and cares are over and this shall be our prayer when we reacel, our journey's end, thy glory we shall share. There is a vacant spot in our home that can not be filled. Mother and Father Mr. and Mrs. George Middleton Sister, Miss Idella Middleton SHEPPARD—In sad but loving memory of our devoted mother, Magdalene Steppard, who departed this life one year ago. April 19, 1918 is the year we can't forget, often we think of you, dear mother, and our hearts are filled with pain. Oh this earth would be a heaven, if we could just hear your voice again; just one year ago you left us. Low we miss your loving face, but you left us to remember none on earth can fill your place, too good in life to be forgotten in death. Mother, you are sadly missed by your children. Grantford, N. J. Miss Inez Louise Barnwell Newark, N. J. GRAHAM—In sad but loving memory of my dear daughter, Mrs. Israella Black Graham, who departed this life April 30th, 1918. One year has passed since that sad day. When one I loved was called away; God called her home, it was His will, But in my heart she liveth still. I often think days gone by. When we were both together; A shadow over my life is cast, A loved one gone forever. How hard is we to part with one I loved so dee The heart noater trials know, No sorrow more severe. What pleasant hours I once enjoyed, How sweet the memory still; But it has left an aching void, Which never can be filled. I often sit and think of her, Whigh I am all alone. For memory is the only friend. That grief can call its own. The golden gates were softly opened, A sweet voice said come in; And with farewell unspoken, She calmly entered in. Mother, Mrs. Missie Bristow Daughter, Gertrude Graham Brother Albert Fontinette DIXON—In sad but loving memory of my dear husband, Chas. H. Dixon, who departed this life April 13, 1918. One year has passed since that sad day. When one we loved was called away; God called Lim home it was His will. But in our hearts he liveth still. We often think of days gone by. When we were here together. A shadow of our life is cast. A loved one gone forever. How hard it was to part. With one we loved so dear. Our heart no greater trials know. No sorrows more severe. We often sit and think of him. When we are all alone. For memory is the only thing. That grief can call its own. More and more each day we miss him. Friends may think the wound is healed. But they little know the sorrow. That lies within our hearts concealed. Rev. John R. McLean, former pastor of the First Congregational Church of Greenboro, N.C. died there April 7th. Rev.

I am sorry the author of that article did not sign his name. This is not a Tom, Dick, Harry and Jim parade, as he calls it, but the people's movement and he, too, was invited to attend the meetings. Did he come? No. If he has so much sense he ought to have come to the meetings and advised us as to just what was proper to do. I consider him a poor fool; God didn't make fools, but you can make a fool out of yourself. Let us see about other cities. In New York and Chicago, the colored soldiers were organized and returned as a unit, here our boys were sent off in squads and returned as such with no commissioned officers, and disorganized. Then, it's up to us as a race to get them together, turn out in masses and give them all the honor we can. There is not one on the committee in charge of this celebration, who is seeking moriety or self-interest, but every one of them is making a sacrifice to entertain the boys, our boys, in a befitting and glorious manner. I can safely say the author of that article didn't give a penny, and I am almost willing to bet that he is not a voter; he only reminds me of the cow, the dog and the stack of lay. The dog couldn't eat the hay, so he would not let the cow eat it. I should think, in my own judgment, that in place of knocking this same person ought to start a movement to get every male person 21 years of age and all others to register and then he will be doing something for the race and not holding himself up as a stumbling block, as he now appears. I registered as one of Uncle Sam's, did you? I pay my pole tax and am a voter, are you? It appears to me that you are the slacker. Are you afraid to be identified with your race? Stop your knocking and act noble and be true. SPECIAL NOTICE Special notice to the returned soldiers. Uniform suits dry cleaned and pressed, one dollar.

We had the Metronome orchestra hired for the occasion. The leader's excuse was he ordered his men to Abercorn street wharf at 2:30 instead of Whitaker street dock. Thinking we had the steamer Pilot Boy instead of the Attaquin.
