IKE DIXON CRUSHED TO DEATH LABOR DAY BY BIG AUTO TRUCK
VOL. XXXV
Was Returning To City From White Bluff
DEAD MAN PINNED UNDER TRUCK
DRIVER OF MACHINE BLINDED BY BRIGHT LIGHTS FROM APPROACHING CAR, DROVE TOO NEAR EDGE OF ROAD AND MACHINE ROLLED INTO DITCH.
Ike Dixon, about thirty years old, was grubbed to death Monday night by a truck in which he and about fifteen other persons were returning to the city from White Bluff. The accident occurred about seven miles from the city at a point where there are deep gullies on either side of the road and where there is a sharp curve.
The party in the lil fated truck left White Bluff about midnight and was proceeding to the city at a moderate rate of speed when all of a sudden around the curve John Richardson, the driver, was confronted with an unusually bright headlight from a machine. Richardson sounded his horn for the driver of the approaching car to dim his lights, but instead of the driver cutting down his lights he came straight ahead with his lights burning at their highest. When Richardson saw that the man in the approaching car was not going to dim his lights and being unable to properly see the road, he applied his brakes and brought the truck to a stop. Suddenly those in the truck felt it gradually slipping to the side of the ditch and then it began to tumble over. The occupants of the truck began to scream as the truck fell over into the ditch but none of them attempted to get out except Dixon, who apparently better by leaping to the ground over the ditch of the truck, which was down. The jumped short and as he landed on the ground the truck fell on top of him and crushed to death. One of the back wheels fell exactly his body and he died before the truck could be righted by the other occupants, all of whom escape injury except Nathan West whose left arm was caught under the truck and broken just above the elbow. Chances are that had Dixon not jumped and had remained in the truck as the others did, there would have been no casualties resulting from the accident.
The unfortunate man begged pitifully to have the truck pulled off of him and those about worked frantically to extricate him. Finally his pleas grew fainter and fainter and then no sound at all could be heard from him. In about a half hour after working feverishly at moving the big five ton truck, the efforts of the dozen or more men caused the ponderous truck to be lifted, but when Dixon was picked up he had expired. The men were nearly exhausted when they succeeded in extricating the unfortunate man and Richardson, the driver of the truck, nearly collapsed when he saw that Dixon was dead.
Richardson was considered one of the most careful drivers of Chapman and Clarke, the drainage firm, to whom they allowed use of the truck for the Labor day outing. In the truck were several other men of the firm and a few women. Richardson was entirely absolved of all blame for the fatal accident by those who were in the truck, all of them agreeing that he was propping at a reasonable rate of speed when he was confronted by the machine with the glaring light which caused him to steer too far to the right. Dixon's body was brought to town and his funeral was held Thursday afternoon at Sindhly, where he is survived by several relatives.

New York, Sept. 8.—One of the most brilliant events recently held in this city was the annual picnic of the Helmner's Association at the Astoria Casino, Long Island, on Friday night of last week.

Amid cheers and applause the United Sons of Georgia an organization which has come into much prominence here, matched upon the pavilion, renting the air with that old time melody, "In Dear Old Georgia," and it was immediately conceded that the toys from Georgia had captured the much talked of contest.
The presentation speech was made by President Durham of the Bellman's Association, who after a few well chosen remarks presented the cup to President W. H. Jackson of the United Sons of Georgia. The acceptance speech was made by Edward H. Burke, of Savannah, city editor of the Savannah Tribune and a member of the organization. The cried which numbered several hundred, gave a roaring send-off to the successful contestants from the Empire State of the South.
The United Sons of Georgia which has a membership of more than three hundred, has made wonderful progress, and on Sunday it held its third annual installation of officers.

National Drive For Justice To Be Held
Chicago, Ill., Sept. 5th—Wednesday, September 22, has been set down as a day when there will be a "National Drive for Justice." It will be celebrated throughout the country, and will be the greatest effort for equal opportunity ever put forth in the history of the race. The people have come to the parting of the ways. They have reached a decision that lynching in the United States must be stopped, and that all citizens should have equal rights before the law. They are determined to improve the importance of these facts on the minds of the American people, and they have selected September 2nd, commonly known as "Emancipation Day," for the time to present their claims.
Already throughout the country, not only among the Colored people but the whites as well, there is a great strf of interest. The Colored people are aroused and enthusiastic, because of their entitley to bring about better living conditions. The white people are aroused, because never before in history did the Colored be such a universal desire to give encouragement to the claim of the Negro, because of the desire to do what is known to be right.
Daily race newspaper throughout the country is heralding the event with flame heads and bold type. Daily new papers are supporting the plans in a manner that is amazing for their fatness. People are saying: "I have never seen anything like it in my life. Surely a better day is coming for all." The speakers who will address these various gatherings are men and women of national reputation. Some of them for more than two score years have been fighting the battles of the race, and they say that with the conclusion of this day, history will be made. Younger men, prominent in the business world, "The New Negroes" who have made for themselves a new phase in the field of success, are setting aside their business interest to give universal attention to the day.

BAPTISTS HOLD ANNUAL SESSION
Most Auspicious Opening Ever Held
DR. JONES DELIVERS FORCEFUL ADDRESS TO CONVENTION
Columbus, Ohio, Sept. 5th (Re-
publical News Service) Thousands of
Baptists from every nook and corner
of the United States are here
attending the tenth annual session
of the National Baptist Convention,
which is presided over by Edward P.
Jones, D. D., of Evanson, Ill. It was
exactly 10:30 this morning when the
mass of Baptists gathered in the
spacious convention hall were finally
rapped to order and the chorus of
many voices sounded a jubilee melody
song "It's Me, O Lord, Standing in
the Need of Prayer." The National
Church insisted upon every one
singing and every one seemed to be
singing. Dr. Johnson of Texas, Dr.
W. J. Bolton, of Florida and Dr. C.
J. Watson, of Alabama, took charge of
the devotion which lasted until
eleven o'clock. It was perhaps the
most conspicuous and suspicious opening
of any session of the convention
for a decade, as it is meeting in the
state, that is furnishing both pres-
ident candidates for the two leading
parties. The special trains arriving
in Columbus, are coming in hourly,
the south furnishing the larger portion
of the delegation. The program
provides for six days' session, bring-
ing it to a close next Monday.
The feature of today's meeting was the
name of today's president Edw. P.
Jones whose brilliant oratory complex
with his eloquent and logical presentation
of the accomplishments of the
civilization throughout the country captivated an audience estimated at ten thousand. It was
Dr. Jones' fifth annual message to the
Baptist forces. He dealt with matters
pertaining to religion, the state and
convention. He dwelled on the marvelous
development of the Negro in every land wherever the religion of the Lord and Saylor Jesus Christ
had been allowed to take hold. At the
conclusion of his address, he was
given a great ovation, such as has
not been witnessed for many years.
Throughout the week the reports of
the eight different boards are to
be read by their secretaries, showing
the scope of activity of the con-
vention through its several arms during
the past year. The local committee
had charge at the night session and
the various welcomes from business,
political, social and civic organiza-
tions were made. The official open-
ing of the women auxiliary to the
National Baptist Convention occurs
tomorrow morning at the Long Street
Baptist church, corner 22nd and Long
street. Mrs. G. Deb. Ashburn will
formally declare the meeting open,
but it is to be preceded by a song service led by Miss Luth Mae Butler. The president's annual address will
be delivered tomorrow afternoon. The two National bodies are estimated to have in attendance in the neigh-
borhood of twenty-seven hundred repre-
sentatives, which include churches,
state conventions, associations and
missionary organizations, with individu-
Beneath a massive flag, representing Old Glory, standing between merids of forms and palms, Edward P. Jones, the president of the National Baptist Convention, delivered his annual address here tonight in the presence of the brain of the greatest denomination among the Negroes in the United States. Recognized already as a forceful, logical speaker and being of the head of more than two and a half million constituents who have亿利 him for the past five years, he outshone himself. He passed his most brilliant star. He eclipsed him self in elegance and covered himself in glory in the presence of his brothers by the wide scope of the matters touched upon in his address, and yet treating each with such a masterly mind that he conceived his hearts that he was the right man in the right place, discussing problems and offering solutions that would meet the approval of the sagges of the time. When President Jones prose and address the vice president at large of the National Baptist Convention after the chorus had sung one of the old plantation melodies, the massive audience stood and he was given the chantantous solitude. Throughout the address he covered various phases of his denominational life, referring only slightly to those things that he declared had attempted to disrupt, beat or break the bonds of unity among the Baptists of the world. He first drew his address into topics. He drew his address into this without any show of feeling or any inference that would lead one to feel that there was malice in his heart. He offered the olive branch to those as he termed it the offending brother who had gotten out of the fold of the great Baptist family. He pointed an index finger to the time when all would be peace and harmony and then he took up the constructive era and infected ideas that he figured or concluded would serve as a beacon light to the great Baptist forces. He then touched upon the Inter Church World Movement, telling how the Unincorporated Baptists had used foresight, not due as he claimed, to any divine information, but because they had clung to Baptist tenements. He paid a beautiful and glowing tribute to the work of the National Baptist Publishing Board under the leadership of Dr. C. H. Clark and R. H. Bord, and then another to the Sunday School Congress that has been kept before the world by the nurturing efforts of Henry Allen Rory, the secretary. He would special attention to the Foreign Mission Board under Dr.

Col. Davis Highest Colored Officer
(Associated Negro Press)
Washington, D. C., Sept. 8—Lieut.
Col. Benjamin A. Davis, a colored
titizen of the District of Columbia,
holds the highest rank of any man of
his race on the active list of the Army
of the United States. Col. Charles
Young, also colored, who was graduated
from the United States Military
Academy, was retired several months
ago on account of disability. He was
the only colored man who ever reached
the grade of Colonel in the Army.
Although retired, he is still on duty
as military attache at the United
States logation, Monrovia, Liberia.
Col. Davis was born in this city studied in the Mott school and was graduated from the colored High school. He began his military career as a first lieutenant in the United States Volunteer Infantry, in July 1888 and was honorably mustered out in March, 1890. He then enlisted in the Regular Cavalry, and in two years was successively promoted to corporal and squadron sergeant-major. As a result of a competitive examination open to enlisted men, he was appointed second lieutenant, 10th United States Cavalry, in February, 1901. Since then he has served with either the 9th or 10th Cavalry regiments in campaigns in the Philippines and on the Mexican border, except for a short detail as inspector instructor of the 1st Separate Battalion of the District National Guard. He reached the grade of Captain in December, 1915, a temporary Major in August, 1917, and a lieutenant-colonel in the National Army in May, 1918. A few days ago, he was appointed lieutenant-colonel of Cavalry. He is now at his home, at 1830 11th street, on leave of absence, having just returned from a tour in the Philippines. He has been detailed as professor of military science and tactics at the Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, and will go there in a few days.
FOREIGNERS COM ING TO AMERICA At Rate of More Than 1,000,000 a Year
(Associated Negro Press)
Chicago, Ill., Sept. 5th—Immigration for the month of August, disclose the fact that foreigners are now coming into the United States at the rate of more than 20,000 per month, or 1,000,000 a year. This great influx is on, despite the pressing conditions in Europe, where man power is at the minimum, and millions are needed to rebuild the countries destroyed by the war. Reports are also being circulated in various parts of the South to the effect that 200,000 Mexicans are to be imported into various southern states in order to take care of the farm work and other industrial needs brought on by the marvelous influx of Negros into northern states. Leaders, organizations and governments, having in charge the economic welfare of the country, are studying the great interest of the arduous phases of the migration. Every encouragement is being given. It seems to immigration, despite the recent immigration law passed by Congress, some go so far as to say that the underlying motive is to open up labor conditions in order to throw thousands of Negros out of employment in the North, so that they will return to the South.
If there is any such motive, it is not believed that it will succeed, however. Careful investigation by The Associated Negro Press in every section of the North to which the race has migrated, discloses the fact that more then ninety per cent of the employers are entirely satisfied with Negro Labor. They give among the reasons for satisfaction the following: the Colored employees are 100 per cent American; they speak our language and no interpreter is required; they do not seek to foment strife and strikes; they are hard and faithful workers, and the majority of them are saving their money and buying homes. On the other hand, it is pointed out that it is necessary for every member of the race to be on guard for his own betterment. After all, it is stated, employment is economic and not sentimental. Regardless of how sympathetic employers may be, efficiency is the watchword, and if the employees do not measure up, there is but one thing to do, make a change.
Organizations of all kind are urged to preach this doctrine to the people, and impress on them the importance of always seeking to better their conditions. Extravagance and vice are frowned man, and honest workers are urged to laureate of the crafty people in the city, men and women, that small but insistent few who thrive and flourish by their wits and the credulity of newcomers.

LETTER TO SUF FRAGE LEADERS
NATL. EQUAL RIGHTS LEAGUE
NSENDS CONGRATULATIONS
Boston, Mass., Sept. 6th—The National Equal Rights League, in an open letter to leaders of the suffrage movement, congratulates them in their victorious fight for equal suffrage.
The letter addressed to Mrs. Carrie C. Catt, president of the National American Woman Suffrage Association; Miss Alice Paul, chairman of the National Woman Suffrage Party, and Mrs Alice Stone Blackwell reads: Ladies—The National Equal Rights League, organized to promote equality of rights without exception for race, matures the National American Woman Suffrage Association, National Woman's Party, to which so many belong, on their remarkable achievements in gaining equal political rights without execution for sex.
At this, your hour of victory, we would call to your thought the following striking coincidences: The most notable male crusade for the abolition of slavery and the bestowal of full rights of citizenship upon Americans it color were also the chief advocates of woman suffrage. The first American woman suffrage convention drew out of a world's anti-slavery convention, where the wife of an American abolitionist was denied a vote and Lucretia Mott began the organized movement now crowned with glorious success. The women pioneers of the suffrage movement, Lucretia Mott, Lucy Stone, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Julia Ward Howe and Susan B. Anthony, in whose honor the 19th amendment, is named and wrote it on the model of the 15th amendment, which gave suffrage to Colored men, were devoted champions of freedom and equality of rights without distinction because of race or color. Lastly, in the dark days, when your champions were few and the cause weak and unpopular, the gifted orators of the Colored race came to its rescue with their genius, and Frederick Douglas was a friend prized by Mrs. Stanton and Miss Anthony till his death.
Causes Linked By Pioneers
Such a linking of the cause of justice, equality and rights for the Colored people of this country with that of woman suffrage in its struggles, in spires us to appeal to your organization to stand firm and strong against any color, line in the possession now of the suffrage won.
Keep The Stain Off
In the presence of the crime of disfranchisement of colored men, in behalf of the millions of Colored women now enfranchised, this league calls upon you to remain true to the tradition, of your cause, to the memory of your pioneers, to friends in time of need, to principle pure and undefiled, exerting your full power that your Colored sisters may not be denied and the new political freedom stained by race discrimination.

The Huffman base ball team played here Labor Day. They defeated the Hardeville team by the score of 8 to 6. For the first seven inning, Hardeville was helpless. They could put men on base but could not score.
But for the heavy hitting and low fielding in the last three innings it would have been a shut out for the local team. Pitcher Feather of the Bluffton team weakened in the seventh and our men pounded him for ten hits, poor base running kept the scorn down. Pitcher Smith was touched for eight hits during the nine innings but he kept them scattered. The fielding of Thomas and King and pitcher of Joseph Smith, and the heavy hitting of Williams and Major featured the game. Hardcover's first three runs came in the seventh. With two men on Major cranked, a two-hit hit in deep right field then scored him soft on another two base hit by Eugene Williams. Center fielder Mitchell of Bluffton did well and kept down the best hitters. Quite a number of battles accompanied the team here. After the game everybody enjoyed them selves with dancing.

Chicago, Ill. Sept. 5th. The voice of Booker T. Washington is to be heard again through the courtesy of his younger son, E. David Washington.
About eight years ago, Dr. Washington at the request of an official of the Columbia Graphite Company, had a record made of his famous Atlantic speech, the speech which brought his world-wide fame.
Only one record was made for Dr. Washington, and since his death it has been in possession of his younger son, Davidson. Young Washington treasured it more than any other possession, because it was his father's voice. After repeated persuasion, he has consented to have additional records of the speech made and distributed among the friends of his father.

ANOTHER CORPORATION SCORES
Almost each week brings forth its share of successes in local business affairs. This week is no exception, for one of the well known investment companies his come forth and purchased West Brind street property at a cost sold to be in the neighborhood of forty thousand dollars. The company which has thus come into the limelight is the Laborer Investment Corporation, an institution which is making much head way. We are pleased to note this continued advancement by our business concerns. It shows that they are alert, progressive and ever striving to push their affairs to the front.
It is, indeed, gratifying to see that so much of the property on West Broad street is getting into the hands of our people. This thoroughfare is the logical place for Negro business in general and unless we ourselves get possession of a considerable portion of this property many of our concerns, especially those that are small, may be gradually squeezed off this street and be compelled to establish themselves on one of the side streets.
West Broad street is the coming business thoroughfare of the city. It is bound to grow in importance and influence as the town improves and we feel that the more of this property we buy the surer will our enterprise be of securing proper places in which to be housed.
We again say that we are delighted to make mention of the deal consumed this week by this investment corporation, for in such purchases is the future success of our businesses assured.
ROAD COURTESY FAILURE FATAL
The failure of autolists to observe road courtesies often results in serious accidents, and sometimes the consequences mean death. The latter was the case midnight Monday when the driver of a large truck containing picnickers was suddenly confronted on the road by a rapidly moving touring car whose brilliant lights reflected squarely in his face and caused him to steer his truck too near the edge of the road, thus placing it in a position from where it slid off the road and tumble into a ditch, crushing one of the occupants to death and seriously injuring another. Had the ordinary courtesies of the road been observed by the driver of the touring car this unfortunate accident would, no doubt,
have been arrested, but, he failed to take into account the probability on an accident or was indifferent as to the safety of those whom he met on the road by keeping his bright lights running and from now on, perhaps, his conscience will bring against him the death of one man, injury to another and several bereaved women, all on account of his rash act.
The law of the road, which precludes the use of bright lights, when two vehicles are meeting each other, was made not as a statute simply to adorn the statute books, but it was made in order that the roads might be a safe place to travel upon at night. It is intended that this law should be observed by all anstolts and not by a few and until it becomes an established rule recognized by all drivers or automobiles accidents such as occur red Monday night are apt to happen at frequent intervals.
We have observed recently that there have been numerous autosists whose machines are fitted up with unusually powerful headlights, who seem to take delight in keeping these blinding lights burning when they meet other vehicles on the road. They appear to take it as a joke or some innocent pastime in using these brilliant lights glaring on the road when they meet other machines. They rush by in a whirl of speed, unmindful, apparently, of the danger attendant to those whom they meet and themselves by such thoughtless or wilful pranking. This seems to be particularly true of a large number of youthful drivers of machines and of joy riders. The habit it is an unusually dangerous one and should be stopped by the county police whenever they come across one of these dare-davil drivers.
The roads at this time of the year, especially on warm nights, are practically teeming with machines, most of them occupied by men and their families. They are out for an evening of pleasure and enjoyment. They take to the roads as a means of relief from the sweltering heat of the city. Often their rides to the country are anything but enjoyable, for they frequently are endangered by speeding autoists and those who insist upon not only half the road but take the whole road by flashing their blazing light while they rush along at breakneck speed. The average driver, especially when he has his family along, does not offer these speed-mad details any opposition, but he pulls hard to the right and gives them as much of the road as he can safely do rather than take changes of a collision, attended, possibly, with serious or perhaps fat-
this should be made reasonable
safe at all times for all vehicles
and not allowed to be urped by those
who are addicted to the speed mania
and those who at all times insist upon
burning their bright lights even to the
detriment of others.

DEMOCRATIC ORGANIZATION REP
PLIED IN GEORGIA
POLIATED IN GEORGIA
Organized democracy in Georgia was knocked into a "cocked hat" this week by meeting disastrous defeat in the primary Tuesday. The Hon. John Watson, radically against President Wilson, the league of nations and nearly everything that organized democracy stands for, was overwitnessingly elected over Governor Dorsay and Mike Smith for the United States Senate. Ex-senator Hammick received a larger vote than the other candidates for the governorship. The organization wanted Hammick defeated. There will be another election for the governorship in which it is predicted that Hammick will win easily.
"THE BETTER SOUTH"
Laboratory Art
Governor Beckett, of North Carolina, is known to stand far ahead of the average Southerner on the Negro question. So that if one wishes to get a fair idea of the immutability of the south with respect to colored people, let him consider the real position of this representative of "the better south."
In his latest message on the subject Governor Beckett advocates to the legislature of North Carolina that it should establish: 1. A reform school for Negro boys. 2. A samoullum for incarcerated Negroes. 3. A "strictly first class teachers' training school for Negroes. 4. And that the laws be amended so as to make the awimi Chow car a little cleaner and safer."
These aims are all good, so far as they go, but the whole program is made impossible of attainment by the real spirit when the governor closes and the remarkable philosophy on which he bases his motives. He opens with a reference to "the white man's God," forgetting that the Christian religion is by no means an Anglo-Saxon affair in origin and spirit. He does well in the requestor a reform school for Negro boys, and it is allowable that he sees in a sanitarium for Negro tubercular patients a measure of protection for the white race. But he fails utterly when he says in his preamble that "we have definitely decided, that white government shall be supreme and unchained." He cannot mean that the Negro has decided not to share in government; he can only mean that the white man has decided to do his best in North Carolina to prevent the Negro, from sharing. That violates the whole matter. There can be no justice with such civil intentions as the motive. The governor and other intelligent white people fail too often to see that you cannot tell a thug that the Negro is to be powerless and helpless and at the same time tell the thug effectively not to lynch that Negro, or to give the Negro equal education, or a white man's trial in court. The thug will always be more logical than the governor and will always know that if the Negro is of an interior order of being, he should not have a white man's treatment anywhere. If a good Negro is unfit to vote, the bad Negro is unfit to be trial in a court.
In arguing for a training school for Negroes the governor says in plain language that he wants them to get, as Negroes, only such ideals as the south is willing for Negroes to have, how under God's sun could he ever establish a "strictly first class" school for Negroes with this idea in mind? He fears that if they go North for training, they may get non-Southern ideals. But we will not dispute with the governor here, for the smaller brain must know that latter degree of education is given he Negro in North Carolina will only send to send that Negro elsewhere for more so long as the North Carolina degree is below that to be received at Columbia University.
WHAT IS FAMILY?
(Associated Nerco Press)
Frederick Douglas, famous editor,rator, diplomatist, has just been rejected as unworthy a bronze tablet in the so-called "Hall of Pione" of the New York University. Was it because he was a Negro? He was the son of a white father and a colored mother. His father's was his "owner" until the son ran away from him and was sheltered and educated despite the Fugitive Slave Law.
He became an Oator famous in the United States and Europe. He was editor of potential newspapers in Rochester, New York and Washington, D. C. He was appointed minister to Santo Domingo and to other offices of trust and honor. He was of distinctively intellectual force, fascinating delivery in eloquent composition, more than the peer of several who had in other years been awarded the doubtful fame of a bronze memorial in the "Hall of Time." He had been memorialized by a monument at Rochester. A plaza had been bestowed on most of those who of such distinction than had been bestored on most of those who have been tabulated in the Vallahda of heroes of New York University.
Rejection of Douglas in no matter farnishes his memory. It merely excites a query. Why? Was it for the same reason that induced a noble Venetian to object to the marriage of his daughter, Deglemona, to Othello, the Moor?
"The Home Mission Council has recently issued a philanthropy written by Rev Bodney W. Roundy, one of the foremost Congregationalists under the caption of "The Negro and Asset of the American Nation." In concluding this interesting pamphlet, the author says "What shall be the answer to the Negro's development and achievement of thoughtful, gober, Christian Americans who believe in the 'square deal'? Shall it be anything less than full protection for the Negro's life and property, economic justice involving equal opportunities for labor with all others along with equitable pay, the preservation of the sanctity of his home, the girlhood and womanhood of his race, adequate facilities for recreation, wholesome amusements and entertainment, equal traveling accommodational facilities to be furnished by the tion facilities to be furnished by the state and nation and the qualification for the use of the franchise as for all men and women? Shall it be anything less than a man's chance for manhood qualities? For the members of the Christian church throughout our land shall it not be the application of the principles of the Golden Rule and the Sermon on the Mount? For colored and white men alike everywhere the standard is "Thou shalt love thy-neighbor as thyself."
A BANK ACCOUNT
This is in no sense intended as an advertiser of the institution as such but of that adventurous, con- tinue spirit in human society finding increasing expression in the colored race, which is back of this partici- pular institution and which in a most commendable way is envising itself in the developing and expanding life of the race everywhere.
We refer to the Wage Earner Savings Bank of Sayanah, Gt., L. E. Williams, President. This is re-puted to be the oldest and strongest Negro savings bank in the world.
Its resources have passed the mil- lion dollar mark. Its deposits amount- ing to more than eight hundred thousand dollars. It is a startling revelation that in the year 1900 this institution began business with about $100 and that today, just twenty years thereafter, it boasts of a gross- business of $1,156,195.61.
Of course, compared with the great mounted institutions of the country this showing is not so flattering, but when the handicap of race and section are considered in the equation this is a truly remarkable showing. It is strong testimonial of the business sagacity, ability and integrity of the small group of men who hard build such an institution and given this asset to the race.
Nor is this the only such institution of which we may be proud. We have built about seventy-five such banks since our enfranchisement as citizens of the pition with the right to do business in our own name. Which speaks volumes for the race, in other days, gooded by certain financial failures, the race has been septimal and fierce to bank investments among ourselves. This racial distrust was but natural under the circumstances. But this is being largely counteracted by the solid success of such institutions and builders a are being developed within the race baby.
That the race has business capacity is being reliably demonstrated. And a rule that can build banks, which are substantial factors in the economic life of society has an economic future. This will be double rue of the 'colored race in proposition' as it shall produce more economic products and husband its financial resource. This calls for race determination and race cooperation. Let us nationalize our race activities. Let us stand in cooperative and sustaining effort with the serious-minded prophetic leaders of the race; let build our banks while we build our other institutions. Let us grow into economic and trade life of the nation. The 'oldest handleup of humanity is sin, ignorance and poverty; he accumulation, centralization' utilization of wealth will be magical as a race builder.-South-Western Christian Advocate.
"OLORED WOMEN ORGANIZE
New York, N. Y., Sept. 8th—Several hundred Colored women organized under the name of the Woman's National Praternal Business Association, are punching a campaign to raise $25,000 or a bldg quarters and clubhouse. The association has been incorporated to aid colored women and children.
New York, N. X., Sept. 5th—Belief That the race riots between Negroes and whites can be avoided has led several prominent so-called workers of the country to form a society for the promotion of harmony between the two races. The committee for the reconciliation of the races is not in favor of the isolation of any race. It has gone on record as being opposed to the revolution passed by, the convention held recently in Madison Square Garden calling upon all Negroes to emigrate to Africa. Dillon C. Johnson, the Negro poet, speaking for the committee, explained that such a movement would only result in a loss for both races.
"The Negro is an essential economic unit in the welfare of America," he said. "The only solution of the present problem is for the blacks and whites to know each other better. That is the purpose of this committee."
NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSO-
New York, N. X., Sept. 8th—The Universal, Negro Improvement Association, has closed its one month session here for electing Rev. J. W. H. Bison of Philadelphia, as "leader" of the Negroes of America, and Marus Garvey as "Provisional President" of Africa

NEGROES NEEDS
BATHING PAVILION
St. Petersburg, Fla., Sept. Sth—When he heard that residents were preparing to file an injunction to prevent the city building the proposed bathing pavilion for Negroes on the water front, Mayor Noel A. Mitchell said that it may take two injunctions to prevent the city from building this bathing pavilion. "They have not a legal leg to stand on as the Negro bathing beach is a half mile from the nearest home and cannot injure the residents there in any way." He added, "If any one needs to take a bath after a hard day's work it is the Negro population. The Negroes heretofore have not had a bathing beach and we should provide them."

DEATHS
Charlie Notice
Mr. Charlie Notice, a former resident of this city and at the time of his death one of the best known barbers in Brooklyn, N. Y., died in that city Tuesday of last week, where he had been living for a number of years. His sickness was of short duration, he having contracted pneumonia which resulted in his death. The funeral was held on Sunday afternoon from the Bridge Street A. M. B., Zion church, Rev. W. C. Brown, the pastor, having charge of the ceremonies. Mr. Notice was a member of Widow Lodge, No. 11, F. and A. Masons. He is survived by a wife and other relatives. Many former Savannahians attested the funeral among whom were G. W. Pittman, Joseph Eyes, Ed. R. Collins of New York and E. H. Burke of Savannah, Ga.
Kemp and Frank, to the Educational Board under Dr. Prince and C. J. W. Bord, and those interested in denominational training. The work of the Home Mission Board was given special attention and emphasis was put upon the zeal that had been put into the work by the field secretary S. J. Dixon, backed up by J. P. Robinson, the chairman, and J. S. Ladelle, the secretary. And then he passed on to the B. Y. P. U. Board under Dr. Drage and Prince, the Educational Board, under Dr. A. A. Banks and D. P. Jones, not failing to mention the Church Extension and the Temperature Board. Then he told of some of the needs by discussing a National Baptist-Aged Minister's Home, and like the age of his time, he swept his audience with him into a twenty-five million dollar campaign, and with an argument that was convincing he showed how this was a small sum for the great denomination. He closed his address with four recommendations: for an aged minister's home; another asking the convention to urge its messengers to cooperate in compiling the statistics; he advocated a proper memorial to the deceased treasurer, John F. Thomas, and hast the setting apart of a Union-Rewiew Day, for the greatest denominational publication, as he styled it, sent out by the race. Throughout the evening while the president was making his address thousands cheered him.
WASHINGTON, D. C. NEWS
Important change have made in the textbooks for use in the public schools for the session which begins September 30th. The new superintendent flown upon the idea of part-time classes, which well he might, and is in favor of continuation schools. The question of the budget plan for the schools was pleasured, with a view to asking for a larger appropriation for the schools. Colored persons interested in the educational program are anxious to have the same appropriation made for the colored as for the white schools. The Parents' League, on learning that the board of education has decided to retain Prof. Roose C. Bruce, as assistant superintendent in charge of colored schools, made known its intention to wage a campaign for the removal of Dr. Ballou.
The congregation of Trinity Baptist church, although quite small, is said to have purchased the magnificent church edifice owned by the Lutheran congregation (white) on 11th street, and the congregation of the Trinity Baptist church will move into its new quarters late in the fall. It has not been announced as to what amount of money passed in the transaction, but it is generally known as is usually custom when colored congrences purchase churches formerly held by white parishioners, that a very large sum of money is involved. The congregation of Mount Sinai Baptist church, a very progressive congregation in the Southwest section of the city has purchased land at will be erected a magnificent building, larger in size than its present
older members of the congregation,
however, do not take kindly to
morning the church, believing it to be to
the best interest of all concern to
remain on the old ground site, which
they call their "glory land."
Although residents of the District of Columbia are denied the right of suffrage, it is safe to assume that if they could vote their choice would be Harding and Coolidge. Colored residents are much pleased to think that complete reorganization in the Federal department machinery. It is a well known fact that the present administration has visited upon its colored employees, the evil of segregation, which is not only a crime against a faithful race, but is a crime against economy. The provision of separate toilets and other quarters for a man or woman because he happens to be colored, is an extravagance in itself. Democratic senators gave as their reason for defeating the Johnson-Novar bill that it would give the colored employees, such as porters, chairwoman, etc., the same remuneration granted to white engaged in similar work for the Government. Other things that the party in power has done to humiliate us are too numer-our to mention.
Washington is a healthy place in which to live as is evidence by the fact that only seventy-six deaths were registered in the District of Columbia during the week ended August 2,th. Of this number 55 were white and 21 coloured. The white death rate was 8.2 per 1,000 estimated population, the colored 9.4. The births for the same period represented 123 for the white, and 14 for the colored. There was one suicide during the week.
Prominent visitors to the city included Mr. Alton R. Holsey and Mr. J. D. Wakeoff, of Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute, who were guests for a brief time of J. E. Fletcher Wilson, editor of "The Eagle." Both these young men were prominent factors at the Business, League meeting in Philadelphia, and carry back to Tuskegee a keener vision of the things that be, Mr. Carl Flipper. Miss Pearl Christmas, of Railway Beach, N. J., is the house guest of her sister, Mrs. W. Scott Maya, Mr. and Mrs. Oscar A. Ryce, have as their guests, Mrs. Beauland B. Ryce and daughter, of St. Louis, Ma. Dr. and Mrs. T. Howard Garnett entertained a party of friends in honor of the Misses Nella Jomett, Mattie and Willean Freeman, of Memphis, Tenn. Mr and Mrs. Fordlind and D. Lee returned by automobile from the sessions of the National Negro Business League, visiting Atlantic City, Hotel Date, Cape May, Lamar, Pena, where they were house guests of Mr. and Mrs. Harris. While in Atlantic City, Mr. Lee addressed congregations in the largest churches, there as well as in other places, seeking in the interest of the National Memorial Association. The people are very much entrusted over the proposed memorial building to be erected in Washington as a memorial to the colored soldiers and sailors who fought in the wars of the country. The Knights of Jerusalem gave a mammoth parade, after which a Queen's Pageant and dance were given at the largest auditorium in the city.

IDENDS
AMONG THE MASONS
Masonry is the natural foe of an archey and every form of lawlessness. Masonry stands for law, order and good government.
It is not a question of how much a man knows about Masonry, but what he can make of what he knows about Masonry. Not a question of what he has acquired and how he has been trained, but of what he is and what he does.
Lodges should stress the social feature. Occasional public gatherings should be held in which the wives, daughters and sisters of Masons could participate.
The strength of a Mason's power is gauged by the breadth of his Masonic knowledge and the depth of his thou, which is fostered and developed by Masonic reading and association. -Masonic Index.
A writer very truthfully says that the only religion of Masonry is to believe in God, and to obey the moral law; its only politics is to be peaceable subjects of the civil powers, and obedient to the laws of the land in which we live. The great Light of Masonry must be her only erased: the constitution of our country its only political platform.
There is something of a charm to old-time Masonry when we consider the simplicity of its perfection, plain' yet nobly dignified and impressive, a well from which men drank to infuse new strength and ardor and refreshment. The altar was holy and ravened, and the guidance and benefit of others. school, and the learning acquired always treasured and disseminated for the guidance and benefit of others. Masonite Voice Review.
In our opinion, there is but one Masonry, and its principles should govern every Mason and body of Masons.
THE ANCIENT ASHITE
COLUMN OF ETHIOPIANS
(Associated 1929)
In competing a book on the race bears on the American Negro, the author of this series, became deeply interested in the African tribes; as for what might be glanced from their walls that would show light upon the real nature of the American Negro. After deep research, through the revolving details of ten volume sets, treating the darker side of the life of the African, some remarkable ethnological discoveries were made.
Almost all the books treating of life upon the Danes continent, for some reason knowing or misleading put humiliated stress upon that which is horrible about the African is told, to counsel something else. When you find the tables still unruined by the slave trade there are striking traits, oldfashioned of a remarkable civilization somewhere in the latter areas of the world.
"Dive handheld years ago," Dillon tells us, "that African civilization was oil par with the culture of other continents." The black African had given the world the art of wedding iron, when the other races of the world were in the Stone Age. In the interior, when the first explorers found them, each tribe had its skilful smiths. With crude tools they could make implements and weapons of so fine a temper and artistic design that Europeans will not believe they were made upon the Dark Continent, and gave to the
The African tamed and gave to the world many of its most important animals and plants. Wherever a plant originates, there it grows wild. In africa we find the wild varieties of many plants that prove that the ancient African developed these plants for the men of today. Asop of table tame was an African. The Hottentots of South Africa tell remarkable animal stories with a moral at the end much like his world tamed table. The historian tells us that in Central Africa there are tens of thousands of cattle. The native African has long remarkable power to make them tame. The native African spur and wove cloth more durable and more beautifully colored, than that made by the European who destroyed these natural and widespread industries in the African large trade.
save trade.
From time immemorial, the African has been a natural poet, orator and musician. We of so-called civilization have to go to school to have developed there the gita that seem to be the Africans by nature. Traveling harbors there today, sing in rhyme upon sweet toned instruments, of their own invention, the deeds and conquests of their people. We cannot do that in civilized life today.
There are some African tribes in which every member is a musician.
Africans are natural resourcers and thinkers. Heroditus called them Wise Man. That is why the counsel of the old slaves was so valued in the home of the Southern Aristocrat. That is why the deep unlettered philosophy of the old Negro preacher has Argyan ear. Many of the so-called new medical discoveries of today were known and practiced by the African of an age ago. Great cities had been built that it took hours to traverse, very numerous were the cultivated fields. These were the Africans that the Slave Trade ruined. The Negro's ancestors, that Argyan sophistry would paint to us as Jungle Folks today.

That is, there is not one Mason of the ornated Blue Lodge; another of the chapter; another of the Templars and another of the Scottish Rite. But the principles, government and teachings of the one and original Craft should permeate and control all, and any who call under the banner of, or call themselves Masons—by whatsoever names or attribution—Squate and Compass.
Our Object as Masons
The main object of the Masonic order is to give the individual member increased opportunity for self development, self-realization and service. If, for any reason, this object is lost or observed, our order has no real place in a world such as exists today. This purpose cannot be fulfilled by the mere recitation of rituals. We must have a practical application of our truths and morals in social up lifting work. Unless we can do this, thinking people will have no time for us—Voice Review.
The Compass
Avoiding to an ancient custom the compass, as a Masonic emblem, whether reposing on the altar, or worn as an officer's jewel should be set at an angle of sixty degrees. This reason is principally geometric, and alluded to the equilateral triangle. Now, the sum of the angles of any triangle is equal to two right angles, or one hundred and eighty degrees, hence it follows that each of the equal angles of any equilateral triangle is equal to one-third of two right angles. The compass, being set at sixty degrees there, alludes to the equilateral triangle, and, if two points were connected by a straight line, one would be formed. There can be little doubt that it was the equilateral triangle itself, which our ancient brethren placed upon the altar, since it was upon that enbure their most solom obligations the compass, set at an angle of sixty degrees, has been sustained square and Compass.

ASSOCIATION GRAND SUCCESS
Atlanta, Ga. Sept 5th - The annual convention of the National Medical Association held here was one of the most successful in the history of the organization. Dr John P. Turner, the new president of the organization,
said:
"We have a membership of about 2000, including physicians dentists and pharmacists, from every state in the Union, and it is the largest and most intellectual organization of Negroes in the world. All are graduates of various colleges in this country, and a number have studied in the great European universities.
"I am proud to be honored with the presidency, and during my term I shall advocate the enactment of federal legislation to prevent the marriage of tubercular persons and others suffering with those diseases that have long ravaged the human rate."
Doctor Turner has been on the staff of the Douglass Memorial Hospital for fifteen years and a medical examiner in the public schools of Philadelphia for nine years, and has one of the largest practices among the physicians of his race.

DR. BOYD GIVEN BIG OVATION
BAPTIST CONVENTION
Columbus, Ohio, Sept. 10th—(Reiprocal News Service)—Nearly a quarter of a million dollars was handed during the past twelve-months by the National Baptist Publishing Board at Nashville, Tenn., in the operation of its plant, according to the reports made here today by Dr. R. H. Boyd, the founder, manager and present secretary of the institution. It was his twenty-fourth annual report. "The veteran secretary who has weathered the storms of many battles and who has been victorious in the most stubbornly contested battles legally in the history of Negro Baptists of the United States and in whose favor the Supreme court decided, said in the opening of his address, "I have not only come to you approaching my eighteenth birthday with a report from the most gigantic plant owned, operated and controlled by Negroes in the world, showing its remarkable progress, but I come with fresh launch and whose two million and a half Negro Baptists who stood for principles and whose record of achievement has no paralleled among the religious forces of the United States. In spite of all that has been said and done, we rejoice that we are able to hand to the Negro Baptists of these United States a report showing an increase of more than twenty-two thousand dollars over any previous year during the existence of the plant. Our business has gone by leaps and bounds and we have increased more rapidly since the law suit was decided in our favor than heretofore. Not even in the earlier stages of our development or when there was supposed to be unity in Baptist ranks was there such a phenomenal growth as is shown by the final
Dr. Boyd's report shows the work by quarters. For the quarter of September, October and November 1919 his board handled $54,337.75. For December 1919, January and February 1920, which is known as the first quarter in the new year, they handled $30,709.04. The second quarter, March, April and May, there was handled $60,840.00. But for the third quarter 1920 embracing the month of June July and August, the total was $60,600.00. This was the banner quarter in the history of the plant. It was the quarter just following the announcement of the winning of the law suit, and it shows conclusively, as depicted, of Dr. Boyd's statement, how the Sunday schools came back to their groove and how the patronage of the institution has revived. While they were doing this, the Sunday school mission and extension department handled eight thousand and five hundred dollars.
The work of the National Publishing Board as outlined by Dr. Bayd showed not only this increase in receipts, but showed that there had been an increase in the disbursements due to the rise in salaries and high cost of material. There was new machinery added and the report shows that practically a new plant is to be built, much repairs and an extensive renovation to be begun immediately after the new year. The report further shows the amount of literature handled in the past twelve months and the millions of letters and publications that have been sent out from the plant from year to year.
