MISS BALDWIN COMPLETES 38
YEARS! MISS BELL, FIFTEEN
A farewell reception was tequered
Miss Viola E. Baldwin and Miss Louise
A. Bell, former teachers of Haven
Home School, on Thursday night of
last week at Palen Memorial M. E.
church. The affair was given in reco-
ognition of the faithful service these
ladies have rendered this community
in the tutoring of hundreds of children
who have come under them during
their work of many years here. It
was a testimonial of the community's
appreciation of their faithful service
here on the eve of their retirement
from active service with the Woman's
Home Society of the Northern Methodist
Episcopal Church.
Miss Baldwin was one of the first teachers at Haven Home and has seen the influence grow in usefulness and influence from its very beginning. She has been in the work here for thirty-eight years and for many years has been in charge of the work. She has given the best years of her life to the elevation of Negro youth in and around Sayannah and her retirement from the work is a source of much regret to the community at large. Miss Bell who has been with the school for the past fifteen years, has also used a most helpful influence in the proper training of the lives of the hundreds of pupils who have come under her teaching and her departure from active work is much to be regretted.
The reception Thursday night was a very impressive affair and was participated in by not only persons connected with the Methodist Episcopal church but by those of other denominations as well. Among the most touching numbers on the program were the talks by former pupils of these ladies, many of whom they have seen grow up from childhood in useful and influential organizations. There was a most beautiful tribute to the lives of service which these faithful ladies of the north have rendered the Negro in this community.
After the rendition of the following program over which Mrs. Ella Parkhurst acted as insult of ceremony, a little informal gathering was held by former students and those who participated on the program, in the annex to the church, where light refreshments were served: Bessie Nona M. Davis, representing the students of Haven Home. Paper, Miss Constance Burgatine, representing the Speedwell Home. Solo, Mr. J. E. Johnson.
Announcements, by the pastor, Rev
Win, Dahlke,

Again."

NUMBER 50
BARTIST CONVEN- TION LARGEST EVER HELD
Sen... Watson. Delivers
Welcome Address
Indinapolis, Ind., Sept. 22nd—The National Baptist Convention has just closed its fortnight annual session in this city, which is said to be one of greatest in its history and was attended by fully 8,000 people from all parts of the country.
One of the features of the convention was the appointment of a committee of 200 to confer with Senator Warren G. Harding, Marion, Ohio, Republican nominee for president of the United States. The delegates was headed by President E. G. Morris of Helena, and Secretary R. B. Hudson of Selma, Ala.
In speaking for the convention and the committee, among other things, Dr. Morris said: "We are not here to ask any special favors as a separate and distinct race in this country neither to envoe any pledge from you as to your attitude when you become president, as we confidently believe you will be the next president. For having watched your acts as a great Christian statesman, we believe that when elected you will be the president of all the people of our great country. The platform adopted by your party and your speech of acceptance appeal to us, as we believe they do, to an overwhelming majority of the American people, as worthy of the/herity support of all patriotic Americans.
"The people we represent are, and ever have been, one hundred per cent Americans, and have proven it from the days of Crispus Attucks in Boston to the time when the news of the Armistice was sounded by the bugle in Argonne Forrest barely two short years ago. We believe that it was your good nature and high sense of justice which prompted you in your speech of acceptance to acknowledge the valor of the four hundred thousand black boys who so cheerfully put their necks under the yoke of American patriotism, "secure for America the rights of democracy," brave black boys expect as a reward the security, protection and all the unqualified rights of American citizens as provided in the laws of our country. This much they have a right to expect and will not be satisfied with less, for the republic must be strong enough to enforce its laws if it is to survive."
Every session of the convention was freighted with interest. Senator Watson delivered an address of welcome as did Governor James P. Goodrich.
It was decided to erect a publishing house in Nashville, and plans were laid to raise money for that purpose. Three men were named as members of the National Baptist Publishing Board, of which Dr. R. H. Boad is secretary, the court having decided that the convention had an equity in the plant.
After some discussion, the charter was adopted, ratified and made active, and all boards were instructed to amend their charters to conform to it. The following officers were elected: E. C. Morris, D. D.; Helena, Ark.; president; W. G. Parks, D. D., Philadelphia. Pa.; vice-president at large; R. B. Hudson, Selma, Ala., secretary; T. O. Fuller, Memphis, Tenn. E. Arlington Wilson, E. H.

Dallas, Texas, auditor; Charles Stewart, A. M. D. D., general missionary; W. H. Moses, D. D. Philadelphia, field secretary; W. B. Walley, D. D., Dallas, Marshal, superintendent of Evangelism.
The convention accepted the invitation from Olivet Baptist church. Chicago to hold its next annual session in Chicago.

B. M. C. HOLDS GREATEST MEETING IN HISTORY
(Continued from page One)
Mrs. Mary Alice Parker was reelected as most worthy grand superior, and Mrs. I. B. de Tosano was reelected as most worthy grand recorder
Past Grand Master Lassell, of Louisiana, was elected to head the grand masters organization, and H. H. Nailor was elected grand secretary.
The New York grand committee of arsenal of banking made to the 101st meeting in New York a demonstration commemorative of the seventy-fifth anniversary of the institution of the Grand United Order of Old Fellows in American. That, of course, had to be postponed along with the meeting of the H. M. C. to this year.
Two features of this demonstration marked the triumph both for the order and the local committee.
The grand street parade was an impressive pageant. It was over two miles long. Two platoons of men and two platoons, on foot provided the fire mite line of march down the historic Fifth avenue from 104th street to the Serenity-first armory.
Heading the procession proper were Colonel Jacob E. Ree, acting major general of the patrilarchy regiments and his staff. Then followed the unformed patrilarchy companies from various parts of the country, the marching clubs, patrilarchies, lodges, councils, and households. The line here
ten bands of music. The female mem-
bers rode in automobiles, and 269 machines were required for their transportation.
Thursday afternoon athletic prize
contests and patriarchal prize
drills were held in the armory, and were witnessed by about 6,000 persons.
The prize winning companies were Philadelphia and Philadelphia company.
Thursday night in the armory, nearly 8,000 admissions to the grand reception were received.
Numerous other features added to the auspiciousness of the festivities in connection with the jubilee celebration.
The B. M. C. adjourned to meet in Cleveland, Ohio, the second Monday in September, 1922.
NOEL—DAVIS FACTION
HOLDS B. M. C.
Wilmington, Del. Sept. 22nd—The Convention of the "Grand United order of old Celows of the New Doyle wing, held its meeting here, Monday. It was composed of delegates from Delaware, West Virginia, Maryland, South Carolina, New York, New Jersey, Tennessee, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, Georgia, over 200 delegates being present from that state, Ohio, Arkansas, and other states of the union.
The Mayor of the city of Wilmington welcomed the delegates on behalf of the state of Delaware. Dr. Corpwell Barton welcomed them on behalf of the citizens of Wilmington. Honorable Henry Lincoln Johnson, Ex Recorder of Deeds of the District of Columbia under President Tall, responded on behalf of all the delegates of the country.
Resolutions were passed by the Convention of old Celows maniously, gendershaping Harding and Cochidge. They said:
"Since the protection of the life of the citizen is the first concern of every government and is the constitutional guarantee of every American citizen and
Whereas, the unchecked aggression of male violence disgraces democracy and mocks the constitution and that mandates over foreign countries we regard as subordinate to mandates over violators of law in our own country, and that the League of Nations as to how countries should vote is a secondary consideration in a republic where all of its citizens have not the right to vote; we were outraged by the murkidity of Belgium, but we regard the absolute subjugation of Haiti and the mockery made of the Haitian Republic of Santo Domingo by the present administration as contrary to the spirit of genuine democracy and take play throughout the world.
"Therefore, the B. M. C. while ordinarily non-political, endorses the Republican party because it denounces the crime of mob violence and lynching the denial of citizens the right to vote, the discrimination of American citizens because of color in the exercise of the rights and privileges given to every other American citizen by the democratic party.
Therefore, it pledges its support for the G. H. Hunting, the nominee for President and to governor Couldee for Vice President, because they still pledged by their past records and their utterance since their nomination to the eradication of these cells in the government of this country.
The following officers were elected; John S. Noel, Grand Master Montgomery, W. Va.; William T. Francis, Deputy, S. Paul Minn.; Grand Secretary Robert J. Nelson, Wilmington, Delaware and Chas Colburn, Grand Treasurer, Wilmington, Delaware. Grand Directors W. T. Andrews, Sumter, S. C; W. P. Kemp, Detroit, Mich.; J. Anthony Joyce, Madison, Wis.; Thos. L. Newton, Little Rock, Ark.; Wm. A. Cornelius, New York, N. Y. Grand Auditor; Harry H. Pace, George; E. Warner, New York, N. Y.; J. G. Robinson Philadelphia, Pa. Grand Attorney Perry W.

HE MEASURE NEGRO ART
New York, Sept. 2nd—Oliver Bell, a London critic, in his regular contribution to Arts and Descriptions, writes about Negro sculpture, and tells how he measure its worth. It may help some a lot in recognizing the value of works of art, Mr. Bell says: "Because, in the past, Negro art has been treated with absurd contempt, we are all inclined now to overprune it, and because I mean to keep my head I shall doubtless by my best friends be called a fool. Judging from the available data, no great stock by the way, I should say that Negro art was entitled to a place amongst the great schools, but that is was no match for the greatest. With the greatest I would compare it with the art of the supreme Chinese perforls (from Ham to Sungjī with Arthale Greek, with Hyazintine, with Mohammadian, which, for archaeological purposes, begins under the Sasanians a hundred years and more before the birth of the people; I would compare it with Romanesque and early Italian (from Glotto to Ralph); but I would place it below at these. On the other hand, when I consider the whole corps of black art known to us, and compare it with Assarian, Roman, Italian, true Gothic (not Romanesque, that is to say) or late Romanesque, it seems to me that the black have the best of it." And, the whole, I should be inclined to place west and central African art, at any rate on a level with Persian. Such sweeping classifications, however, are not to be taken too seriously.
"All I want to say is that, though the capital achievements of the greatest schools do not seem to me to have an absolute superiority over anything Negro I have seen, yet the finest black sculpture is so rich in artistic qualities that it is entitled to a place beside them."

FIRST IN
SERVICE
The recent political campaign in Georgia, in which Hoke Smith the senior senator of Georgia sought re-election, would seem to mark the passing of the Honorable Hoke from the political arena of the state. Senator Smith has been a pre-eminent figure in the politics of the South particularly in Georgia, since the administration of Cleveland in whose cabin he held the portfolio of Secretary of the Interior. In many respects he has been at once the most powerful and commanding figure in the state in more than a generation, and his career has been marked by some of the most stirring campaigns of the political history of this state. Until his recent defeat, Senator Smith has enjoyed an almost unbroken record of victories at the polls.
Though a man of exceptional talent and training, with years of experience as one of the ablest lawyers of the state and South before his advent into political life, Senator Smith never attained any marked distinction in the senate of the United States. He was loyal to the South and its institutions, pleaded is causes upon every occasion and preserved the best traditions of his political predecessors in that great legislature.
Liked most of the conspicuous leaders of the white South, Hoke Smith attained his tremendous hold upon the masses of the white South through an aggressive and unrelenting tirade against the Negro. He came along at a time when there seemed to be no other recourses to political ascendancy than to match the field of anti-Negro doctrine; then the shibboleths and programs of every aspirant for public office; Hoke Smith, openly and everywhere, waged a ruthless campaign against the Negro vote, Negro education, Negro office holding and everything which tended to put the race on a par with the whites. His appeal was largely to the masses in rural communities, and herein is where he has done such serious damage to the people of both races.
Hoke Smith, undoubtedly, is entitled to credit for the rising tide of lynching and oppression which became so acute fifteen years ago. He is directly responsible for the Atlanta riot of 1006, which followed close upon his bitter campaign for governor, a campaign in office, he promised to close up Negro schools and send their teachers to the cotton-fields and to the hitchens, strangely enough, it may be said that those Negroes who have come in close touch with Smith are all property-owners, found him kind and fair and ready to help them, and paying good salaries for their work. His record is a member of the cabinet of President Cleveland will show the appointment of more Negroes to public office by way of patronage, than any since his time. During the fierce Atlanta riot Negroes found shelter in the home of Senator Smith, although it was openly charged that the Smith campaign together with the Atlanta News anti-Negro campaign which went along with it were responsible for the outbreak, and thus it appears, the more clever that men of that type and more always ready to sacrifice the Negro and his every interest for public office. "But politics is politics." Such men and such campaigns eliminated the Negro from politics, brought the white primary and similar institutions into existence, put an end to Negro office holders in the South, arrested the development of Negro public schools, intensified the antagonism between whites and blacks in the rural districts, resulting in increased lynchings, peonage, terrorism of Negro organizations, and generally, on the race issue, set the South back for a hundred years. The little good these men have secured in Congress for their section cannot at all compensate for the irreparable damage which they caused.
It is going to be a good lesson for the South if it reflects and reviews the vigorous and stormy political career of Senator Smith, its foremost statesman for a generation; if it summarizes its gains and losses, directly traceable to Hoke Smith, and compares them. It is going to find that its moral asigmism on the race issue in Georgia, engendered and inspired by men of the Hoke Smith type and their doctrines of race hate preached, to the backword masses of rural whites, has blocked the way of civilization and commercial progress. Unsettled, conditions, due to racial strife, has repelled the advance of capital, discouraged new enterprises, kept industry restive, promoted migration and stimulated crime of all sorts. Nona will regret the passing of the senator, from the spotlight of Georgia politics. He has been defeated on platform of opposition to Wilsonism
and the League, while another raid type has been elected in his stead on mostly the same platform. It proves the uncertainty of politics and the fickleness f the people. An idol today may be an outcast tomorrow. Outside the mer practice of law, the usefulness (or detiment) of Sena tor Smith to the state is at an end. His career has been so long and so much that he will never come back. "Others will sing the song, others will right the wrong, etc."
NEGRO WOMEN AT THE POLLS
Negro women must certainly realize that it is the fear of the participation of Negro women in the politics of the South that caused some of the states of the South to make such stucco-born resistance to the ratification of the suffrage amendment. In Georgia, which never ratified and in Tennessee, which ratified and is yet trying to prevent that ratification from becoming effective by having the courts declare it inoperative or unconstitutional, opposition has not meant that there was a desire to keep women disfranchised and out of a field which the better judgement of the majority felt did not properly suit her dignity and grace. On the other hand, it is clear that if whitest women could have been enfranchised without at the same time casting, the mantle of citizenship and suffrage upon Negro women, there would have been an end to the suffrage fight several years ago.
The very victory of the fight for suffrage, and the many occasions when the bugaboo of Negro women has been held up like a red flag before those in whose hands lay the power to enfranchise, all these should but urge and inspire the Negro women of our land to wholesale participation in politics, in so far as expressing their preference at the polls may go. It is only thru such showings of power and principle, after all, that we shall soon wipe out such damnable institutions as the "white primary." It is only through such showings of strength at the ballot box that we shall put ourselves in position to demand, a fair and reasonable proportion of representation for our people in the affair of government.
There has never been any fear of "Negro domination" so-called; those who hold up this empty and impossible misner, do so for the sole purpose of frightening and terrorizing litter ignorant constituents into opposing any measure or man who stands for fair play toward the Negro. Every white man of fair intelligence and above knows that under fair government there could be no "Negro domination" in view of the smaller Negro population, the lower average Negro intelligence and the lower economic condition of the average Negro group. This charge is idle and they know it, and they know as well that their wholesale disfragmentation of Negroes is based solely on the desire to hold everything in the way of representation in the government from Negroes. Any of the informed will admit this.
Beneath every consideration, both political and social, lies, directly or indirectly, an economic one. Control means power, and power means wealth or economic strength, and vice-versa; and hence it is natural for selfishness and hate to oppose any group which vies to share in control. Now that women have the right to vote, Negro women as well as white, it is highly important that the political education of this newly-enfranchised group shall be commenced at once, and that it shall be such as to insure to them much higher conceptions of the sacredness and responsibility of the ballot than is generally conceded to them. Fortunately for the nation, the campaign for woman suffrage has been waged for many years and during that time many women have studied and learned the theory of American government and its political machinery. Recently, when it appeared ceteric number of states would ratify that in a very short time a suffite-Suffrage Amendment to insure its adoption, all over the country Women Suffrage Clubs were organized to prepare the women to exercise the franchise, intelligently and wisely whenever it should be granted. Negro women shared in this awakening and in this anticipation, and they, too, made ready for the day of their political emancipation.
Negro leaders everywhere are urging our women to qualify, register and vote and to prepare themselves by classes to function as other "women are functioning," in this "respect." In many northern centers where women have participated in local municipal and state politics, Negro women have already taken a vigorous hand. In many cases they have secured marked consideration, for such participation; and it appears the character of their participation and the broader conception of citizenship duty have made them a more serious problem for political leaders.
In urging study and participation, the National Advancement Association reminds us of the words of Senator John Sharp Williams of Mississippi, when he said "Negro women will not be as easily handled as Negro men have been." Negro women are not only not going to submit to dischisement, subterfuges and circumventions as easily as Negro men have done. They are going to press their case with unrelenting vigor wherever it is sought to rule them out purely on the ground of race. And be it said to their credit, they are going to do much to inspire the men to insist upon their just right to register and to help elect those who must be their governors and officers in state.
Under the law as it stands today, all women are on the same footing. Looking forward to-the passage, of the amendment, most of the states have provided for the registration of their women and for their participation in the fall elections. In southern communities, it is hoped that Negro women will courageously go up to the polls and register, and when it is time, to cast their ballot for those candidates who stand for honest administration of government. Those who would oppress the Negro, politically and otherwise, know full well that the political, social and economic considerations in our civilization are so related that where one, individual or group, rises in the one line to power or pre-eminence, there is most certain to follow an advance in
the other lines of endeavor. They know that political freedom for the Negro means the passing of Jim-crowism, industrial slavery, lynching and all the despicable institutions which depend upon political power, and upon each other. Hence, those who would perpetuate these institutions must see to it that the Negro does not vote and does not participate in the affairs of government.
But these unfair and unnatural discriminations, through which one group of the people is set up and preferred before another, must pale before advancing civilization. No race group of the same strength of the Negro could be oppressed to the same degree that we are; and even we shall not be long oppressed to the extent that we now are. Many men of the south are aware of this, see the handwriting on the wall, and are willing to make certain moderate concessions in favor of the Negro in the South. Having a certain sense of fairness through having had greater light than their fellows, a few are willing to admit that things are wrong and must be changed. These are not quite sure what the remedy is to be. Even the Negro, with little to lose, does not wish revolution or violence. He is yet willing to concede many things to the white man for the sake of peace and cooperation and an eventual just reckoning. He is certain of one thing, that he will not be content with his present lot.
It will be the women, then, who will do most to bring about the real awakening of the Negro, south and north, and that awakening is going to come about through the organized and intelligent use of the ballot. It could very well come about in November for in many of the states of the north and pin of strength as between the two in several of the border states the major political parties is much less than the total Negro vote in those states. In fact, in most of the greater states, the tremendous Negro populations could wield the balance of power in favor of the one or the other. And the Negro vote should see this situation and make the best of it. Whenever he does, he will be able to secure from the candidates who aspire something more than academic and involved promises, ambiguous and meaningless.
In the south, even, we do not fear for the Negro women; and we believe they will meet the requirements of registration and suffrage whatever they may be.
Up to last spring, there were five teachers in our schools who had been serving the community for more than 35 years. This period represents for them a term of service characterized by an incomparable faith and an unruling devotion to the welfare of the children of this city.
I think of the three others who are yet with us, in the same light. They have served, each of them for more than forty years. I believe and they have been years of anxious toll, anxious that the thousands, when they touched should make good and worthy lives, worthy to themselves and to this community whose investment they were. For the most park, they are receiving the rewards they looked forward to, years ago.
Tears overtake us, when we reflect upon the fact that human beings form a part of the pageant which enters the stage and passes out, and the great black curtain drops.
Then too, there are the younger teachers, who are constantly working and studying to give better service, this too in spite of the meager salaries they earn.
This summer Miss Madeline Shilvery of the West Broad, Miss Helen Ellis of the Maple Attended Columbia University; Miss Sarah Lee, of the East Broad attended Columbia University; Misses Rachel Rogers and Geneva Stiles, Willerforce University, and Mrs. L. A. Woodard, Greensboro, N. C.
There were at Cheney Normal school Pa. Misses Marian Duncan. Alma Teton, Charlotte Genross and Gustaf Carse.
They have all returned and are prim full of some educational progressivism. We feel participable pride in these teachers and commend them to the appreciation of the community.

This need of a permanent place of worship is keenly felt and they are putting forth every effort to establish a church.

Free from care and sorrow. ETADIN
Sleep the last sleep, dear angel, Free
from care and sorrow:
Rest, where none weep, till the eternal morrow;
Themeth dark ways roll over the silent rite;
Thy painting soul Jesus will deliver;
Thou art gone to the grave, but we will not deplore thee;
Since God was thy ransom, thy guardian, thy guide;
He gave thee, He took thee, and He will restore thee;
And death shall no sting since the Savior hath died

West Columbia, Tex., Sept. 14th Charles Brown, who died at his home here a few days ago at the age of 190 years, was probably the wealthiest, but one of the most unostentations, Negroes in the world. He is believed to have left a fortune of considerable more than a million, some estimates placing the figure 14,420,000.
It is known that Brown owned at the time of his death about 3,000 acres of land, a considerable part of which is in the heart of the wonderfully productive West Columbia oil field, all under his. He received an enormous revenue from oil wells under the one eighth royalty claim which he in all the lease contracts. He was also a successful farmers during his long life. He leaves a family of seven children and a number of grandchildren. Although the aged Negro did not set store by a reckless display and expenditure of money, he was liberal in providing for his children.
Brown's physical and mental condition was vigorous up to a few days before he died. He made no change in his manner of living when fortune came to him. He was a familiar figure on the streets of West Columbia and surrounding county. Frequently he was seen driving along the roads and streets in a farm wagon. Although his children rode in high powered automobiles their father was content to follow the even tenor of his old life. He was always held in the highest respect by the white people of the town and section—Negro World.
"IS THE NEGRO WORTH SAVING"
"Is the Negro worth Saving" will be the special sermon by Fr. Brown at St. Augustine's church, Sunday night. The nation wide campaign of the Episcopal church is working out a constructive program for the Negro which will for an expenditure of over $000,000 per year for the educational, spiritual and serial development of our group. The Episcopal church has realizes that one-tenth of the population of the country is composed of the man, who was brought here against his wills, and that $05,000 per year is not enough to meet the problem of helpfulness which is the motto of this church, hence to be adequately advised on the need of this great people, the Episcopal church three years ago consecrated two Negro Bishops with jurisdiction in this country. In the light of this momentous movement for betterment and uplift Archdemon Brown proposes to open the campaign at St. Augustine's Episcopal church on next Sunday night with a sine, reasonable and conservative discourse on the subject "Is the Negro worth saving."
Brooklyn, N. Y., Sept 22nd. Determined to break the non-working conditions among the Irish longshoremen for the last two weeks on the White Star pliers, officials of the line adopted radical measures. The Irish longshoremen "vacationist," who have been out since the baltic arrived were ignored and no appeal was made to them to come to work.
This firm had 200 Negra longshoremen ready at the outside of the plier 7 a. m. Two sergeants and 25 policemen were ready to suppress any rioting, but there was, no disorder.

AMONG THE MASONS
REMEMBERED
"Oh, for a touch of the vanished land," is a cry that expresses theuttle anguish of the soul when loved ones depart forever. But, when the cup of despair is drained to the bitter drags, Memory opens her golded path and we look with tender emotion backward to the days made beautiful by the living presence of the one we mount. And then, as time assages grief and rain regret is dissolved in the peace which passeth all understanding, with loving tenderness, we enshrine in the depths of reverence and affection the indefeable image of a lost companion. Sometimes the tears will stray afresh, as we miss again; the well beloved, form, but after sorrow's brief storm, the rainbow of love arrches the sky, and we find a greater joy in remembrance of the one whose life and lives inspire us with grateful memories of sweet comradeship and a firm resolve to emulate a noble example.

FAITH IN GOD
When slime are Pre-masonry controls men, there will be no loss of the old Faith in God which inspired and animated the builders of the ancient temple. When it is best exemplified, unlikef grows gentle and respectful benevolence, uprightness, enterprise, and freedom multiply, and the central saving truths of faith in Him whom they have put their trust will flower and fruit as long as there are days of toil and sorrow, or nights of weariness and pain.—P. G. Huntington.
EIGHT MASONIC RULES.
Never solicit a man to be a Ma son.
Never fall to exercise your rights as a member of your Lodge and vote upon every application.
Never let it be known, either directly or indirectly, how you vote upon an application for the mysteries of Masonry.
Never speak of Masonite matters in unseemly or improper places.
Never whip-per or indulge in low conversation when the Lodge is at work.
Never leave the Lodge room until the Lodge is closed.
Never smoke, tattle or laugh in a funeral procession, and return with your Lodge after ceremonies. Voice-Restrict
If a League of Nations is a good thing, why isn't a League of Masons likewise to the desired? Villalization has developed from the individual to the plan, to the town, the city, the state, the nation and now we are about to take a forward step and introduce a League of Nations. How long can Freemasonry continue to exist as a group of individuals in view
POLITICAL CLEANINGS
Philadelphia North America—When Franklin H. Roosevelt announced that the United States' waste money he had evidently scarcely recovered his self-control after learning that Creeks Wilson Democratate party propaganda began had cost the country $8,851,176.56.
St Louis Times—The election is decided now. This country will never elect a blather-like as President.
Dubuque Times-Journal—Governor Gov. has found that his arguments for the league didn't arouse any wide enthusiasm. Hence his switch to the old policy of vituperation instead of argument.
Detroit Free Press—Having bought a hotel in Switzerland, the League of Nations should soon have all the information necessary to a full consideration of the tipping evil.
Philadelphia Press—Lloyd George is now issuing President Wilson of being indisident. It seems that some parts will be openly arrived at in spite of all the secret diplomacy.
Nashan. N. H. Telegram—When Candidate Cox declares he's ready to fight, meaning he wants to mix up in European wars, what he really means is he's ready to send the young manhood of the country now wearing service strips over there again. Think it over.
Boston Transcript—Prices may be falling, but they are not falling hard enough to make much noise.
Troy (N. Y.) Times—The difference between Mr. Harding's front porch and Mr. Grys' tear car-platform is that the former is surmounted by a tiize and the latter is enveloped by a frost.
National Republic—The Wilson administration spent $118,000,000 for poison gas during the war, none of it reaching the battle front. Probably it is this left-over material that Governor Cox is using in his present campaign.
Public Ledger—Governor Cox is behaving like a small boy with a peep shooter on Halloween.
Wall Street Journal—No party can win on "dush fund" talk, even as a rookhawk.
Seattle (Wash.) Post-Intelligence—One gathers, from the denunciation of the Republican campaign fund by Candidate Cox, that the Democratic committee is indictingly mailing all campaign contributions back to the donors.

of the lesson of the years before us—
that of organized efforts—Illinois
Freemason.
What is called speculative Masonry is responsible for having handed down to the world something more lasting and more acceptable to the fraternity as it is today than more operative science—Masonic Chronicle.
"The fundamental principles of Freemasonry are: Obligation to God, love to man and liberty under law. These are also the fundamentals of Americanism. They are in danger. Many of our fellow-citizens are losing sight of the Divine government; many are waived by selfish motives, and are losing sight of the great fact that it is the duty of a citizen to live and work for the public good; many are being swept away by false notions of liberty, seeming to believe that liberty consists in the absence of restraint and in the doing by every man of what seems good in his own eyes regardless of the laws of the land, and sometimes even regardless of the laws of morality. It is not imitated that these false views have
invaded our body but their danger is great and the brethren ought to be reminded of it and of the necessity that in word, as well as deed and vote, they should stand always for the true principles of Masonry and American civilization, as against the efforts and insidious propaganda of those who hold other opinions. "This cannot be stated too strongly. Masons have no more important duty in the time immediately before us than to stand unfinishingly and make their influence felt effectively for the right in this regard." New England Craftsman.
Every wrong done by one hand against another is an offence against the law of justice.
The fundamental principles of Precumasonry are: Obedience to God love to man and liberty under the law. Grand Master Abbott, Massachusetts.
Grand Master H. R. Butler will deliver the main address tomorrow at the dedication of the new temple of Dallon lodge.
BEWARE OF DISPENSATIONS
Breach of the jurisdiction must not abuse the dispensation. It is not intended for this purpose. Masonry is too high and too noble for its principal to be trailed in the dust. Dispensation is not intended to fill the lodge with a number of undisables. Working under dispensation, lovers the bars and perverts its true purpose. Lodges with fifty or more members should never apply for a dispensation in order to increase the membership. Honor Masonry and do away with the dispensation:

London, Sept, 17—An indictment of British treatment of Negroes in British East Africa is made by Sir H. H. Johnston, writing in The. Observer, "Many of the assertions made before the Negro conference in New York," he says, "were wild and windy but it behooves our colonial, officers to see plain justice done to 40,000,000 black and brown people in this colony and 'protectorate.' Numerous instances of bullying, flogging and torture are cited by the writer.
"The natives," he says, "are slowly coalescing, Bantu with Nilote, Mohammedan with Christian and Pagan, Somell and Gulu with hitherto despised Negro in their common hatred of the invading white man, owing to the exceptional cruelties which have stained the white man's record during this period of 15 years. These are not cruelties of soldiers or policemen, of government servants of any kind, but of individual settlers, British or Boer, in origin.
"Not only have murders, light-hearted murders, of natives taken place all too frequently, not only have revolting cruelties been committed, but, when the white delinquents are brought up for trial white juries acquit them or white judges inflict trivial penalties, or rebellious public opinion forces a governor to revise a sentence, I doubt if capital punishment for murder has ever been imposed on a white man in 'East Africa.
"Arain, in the great war, thousands and thousands of natives porters were compulsorily enrolled by our government or by the military authorities in the 'inhappily-styled protectorate' and the arrangements for their commissariat, their medical treatment, their lodging and clothing have been miserably inadequate, with the result that some 23,000 to 25,000 of them (it was reported) died during the pursuit of the German forces.
"The survivors have retained tongues and the power of speaking; some even, had been mission educated and when 'Dora' (Defense of the Realm Act) took her hand off the mail service they have stammeringly told the world outside Africa something of their preventible sufferings and even of singularly callous and sometimes cruel treatment at the hands of the military authorities.
"Now the culminating incident is this. Some two months ago there occurred at Nduru, in British East Africa, cases of flogging and torture, so severe that, according to a medical officer's report, in some cases "the flogged natives die from the torture and flogging." These crimes seemingly were committed on a European's plantation. The Europeans, in what is now termed a 'colony?' apparently take the law into their own hands and administers punishment as they please."
EX-SOLDIER AWARDED GOVERNMENT SCHOLARSHIP Syracuse, N. Y., Sept. 2nd—When Solomon Harper was called to the colors via the selective service, he couldn't read nor write and was forced to sell his clothes to enable him to travel from this city to Rochester, where he had registered for the draft.

National Hair Growers' Association Of Carters System Holds Meeting
The National Hair Growers" Association of the Carter System, the first hair growers' association in the country, convened in its fifth annual session in Thomasville, Ga., August 4th, and 5th. The following five states were represented with delegates from various clubs of the Carter System: Alabama, North Carolina, Florida, Illinois and Georgia. The Meetings were held day and night at the St. Marks A. M. E. church of Thomasville.
Officers of the National Hair Growers' Association: Mrs. Rosa Belle Menton, first vice-president, 1522 Albany St., Brunswick, Ga.; Mrs. Clara Manley, second vice-president, 900 Spring at, Pensacola, Fla.; Mrs. Winnie Austin, third vice-president, 430 Gillispie St., Fayetteville, N. O.; Mrs. Ella J. Henderson, fourth vice-president, 69 Parallel St., Waycross, Ga.; Mrs. Alice Myers, treasurer, 1009 Albany St., Brunswick, Ga.; Miss Lillian Lattimer, recording secretary, 14 Elm St., Statesboro, Ga.; Mrs. Maud Smith, corresponding secretary, 3225 Ellis Ave., Chicago, Ill.; Rev. A. A. Mathis, chapain, 341 W. Fair, St., Atlanta, Ga. National Organizers—Mrs. Josie Turp nip-seed, Mrs. V. M. Monroe, Mrs. C. Showers, Mrs. Emma Morris, Mrs. Rebecca Mathis, Mrs. Amanda McDow and Mrs. Lillian Champion.
To say that the meeting was a great one and epoch making is but to express mildly one's impressions. A person attending this meeting for the first time would naturally expect to hear discussions on the treatment of the hair, how to make the hair grow, etc. On the contrary, however, little or nothing was said throughout the session of two days about the hair. The mere mentioning the name of the Hair Growers' Association was the nearest and only reference made to this art among women which has already become national in its scope. Subjects of vital concern to the race were discussed, and most helpful talks given on them. Conditions in the rural districts especially related to religion and education were vividly presented by those present whose position in the rurals enabled them to be authorities upon the subject. The Value of Organization was presented in a most forceful manner by Mr. James Battle, a student of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute. The value of insurance and the opportunities offered our people through this agency was presented with servor by a leading business man of Thomasville, Mr. J. S. Wilson. Our Health and How to Keep Well was spoken upon by Rev. C. W. Kelly of the Phelps Hall Bible Training school, Tuskegee Institute, Ala. Helpful discussions on the above subjects, limited to three minutes, were engaged in by delegates and friends in attendance.
Mime, Carter, the president, had prepared a carefully written paper for her annual address, but those rather to speak extemporaneously and perhaps more directly from the heart of of her many observations made with respect to conditions of the race. Her strong plea to her anxious hearers to not live above their means, to stay out of debt and have a bank account, however small; her plea to the women of her race to be mindful of their conduct on public carriers and in public places, and so command rather than demand respect from all people; these and other matters constituted an address which will be long remembered by all present.
Any report of the meeting which failed to make mention of the beloved chaplain, Rev. A. A. Mathis, of the association would be incomplete.
His services were invaluable. This fine old gentleman served in the United States Army as chaplain at Camp Gordon, Atlanta, Ga. This with his long service in the pastorate pre-eminently fitted him for this particular position in this organization. Whenever he spoke, whether in light or serious vein, the congregation hung upon his every word and were stirred with emotion according to the chaplain's will.
A rather unusual feature in connection with the program of this association is the great interest taken in old people of the race, particularly those who are disable and can't help themselves. All clubs in the Carter System appreciate the privilege of ministering to the aged and feeble; and any such who wish to join are received as members. During this particular session three substantial contributions were made to two retired ministers of the gospel and a blind man. Over two hundred dollars were brought up by the various delegates from their fields of endeavor and placed on the alter of charity and every cent was given to charity's appeal in some form. An orphan's school in Thompson, Ga., presided over by Miss Fannie Showers, after the latter's fervent appeal, was donated $85.50 by the president's of the clubs of the Carter System. This, it occurs to the writer, is really getting down to brass tacks, touching life at its vital point.
The beautiful little health resort of Thomasville, Ga., is yet a better place because of this wonderful meeting being held there. Among the many places desiring the meeting another year was Albany, Ga., which gave strong inducements to have it come there, but as the spirit and work of the organization is very well established in Albany and, too, as the slogan is to render help where most needed, the association judiciously voted upon the president's recommendation, to go to Camilla, Ga., next year. Even as a little leaven leaventh the whole lump, we may confidently expect the good from this great meeting to cover as many states certainly as were represented, and the praise of the Carter System through its National Association will be sung far and wide. Rev. C. W. Kelley, Tuskegee, Ala.
Victim Was Unable to Sleep or Eat in Comfort
Exposed to winter's cold and summer's scorching heat while driving for four years for a big refining company in Savannah, Ga., -Owen Klimb developed a severe case of rheumatism which rendered his life miserable. At night in bed "the pains were as though some one was sticking pins in my flesh" he says. "What little I ate, I would force and and sleep was out of the question."
"I tried all kinds of medicine that was recommended for my alliment, but found none that seemed to help me. I heard that Peplax was doing so much for people here in Savannah that I thought I would not be out much if one bottle failed to help me."
"Very much to my surprise I secured so much relief from that one bottle that I am back after more of it. My rheumatism has disappeared. I don't feel any more of those pains and I eat and sleep fine. I hope every one suffering will give Peplax a trial." Owens Kimbell is well known in Savannah where he has lived ten years Genuine" Peplax the 'kind that Owen Kimbell tells of is sold at Savannah Pharmacy Buy a bottle today it will help you as it has done for thousands of others.

HOWARD UNIVERSITY
FACING STUDENT OVERFLOW
Washington, D. C., Sept. 22nd—From all indications Howard University will face a considerable overflow of students this year. Dr. Emmett J. Scott, Secretary-Treasurer, announces that both the young men's dormitory and the young women's dormitory are filled to their capacity, and students now sending in applications for reservation of rooms will find it necessary to seek accommodations with nearby residents. The office of the Registrar, Prof. Dwight O. W. Holmes, has received over 700 applications for admission to the Freshman Class alone. Of this number, over 350 applicants have been accepted for admittance with the possibility of the acceptance of nearly 200 additional applicants. There is little doubt that Howard University will have a Freshman Class of approximately 500 students. The large number of students who are being admitted together with the record-breaking attendance of last year makes easy the prediction that the University will have an enrollment during 1920-21 of nearly 2000 students. This year marks the second year of Howard's life as an institution giving purely collegiate an professional training, having discontinued its preparatory department at the end of the school year 1918-19. Extensive repairs have been made during the summer in connection with the dormitory buildings and in the care and improvement of grounds. The students returning for courses in the College, Law and Medical Departments will find an institution greatly frashered and improved. Upper lassmen are sending letters of greeting and welcome to all prospective students. The Sophomores plan to extend their greetings in person. The whole University looks forward with pleasant anticipation to the registration period which includes September 27, 28, and 29th. The regular school term begins Thursday, September 20, 1920.
FOOTBALL AT HOWARD FOR 1920
The opening of Howard University his fall will mark a new epoch in the history of football at the Big Negro Colleges of this country. Consistent with the new Howard, her new policies of extension and development, her far-sighted admini-trators, and the mighty influx of a larger and more cosmopolitan student body, the prestige of the University in football will be felt in the remotest sections of the country. Pressed on all sides by the zealous rivalry of crafty Lincoln, the grim determination of industrious Hampton, and other opponents that must be met on the gridiron, supported by the broken spirit of a loyal student body, alumni and friends, more than ever Howard University is determined to produce this year the strongest and fastest team possible. Serious attention is directed to every detail in the theory and playing of the game with the view of devising and invincible coaching system and maintaining the records of former years.

largest university group of Negro students in the world, men of all types and talents, athletes both by natural ability and practice. She has produced teams that played with the understanding that victory was their inherent right and that the only object of the game was to prevent the opposing team from scoring.
During these days of giant players and lightning plays, in spite of the unfalling toe of Collins of Lincoln, and the mighty blows of Bender of Hampton, Howard displayed a superiority that was based upon the discipline of an alright coaching system and the spirited support of the student hosts. The 1920-21 season will open under a new coach, one who has played "big league" football, and is competent of training a "big league" team. Considerable thought and study have been given local problems. Reports, indicate that the program of training is to be more vigorous than ever. Even before registration is over, something new in football for Howard, practice will begin and already all old players and all prospects have been notified. Arrangements have been made to equip these men immediately and present them for practice without delay.
League Park in Washington, Lincoln and Howard will clash. It is definitely known that with Lincoln this will be a supreme effort for victory. Under the training of Pollard this team can boast of one of the most cleaver coaches of the country. This is the surest guaranty of a thrilling contest. In such contests as these, confidence pulls the enthusiasm of those for whom the battle is fought will be almost a deciding factor. Both teams will be so well coached that the tricks and plays of the game will come automatically. The spirit of the greater university will decide the day.
