CHARLES GILPIN
NEGRO ACTOR
NOT INVITED
Now Playing Role In "The Empror Jones"
MANY LEADING ACTORS REFUSE TO ATTEND DUNNER IF INVITATION-NIS REFUSED.
New York, N. Y., March 2nd (Associated Negro Press)—With the final votes cast for the selection of the ten persons to be honored at the drama league's annual dinner, the result is announced today show that Charles Gilpin, the Negro actor who has made a hit in the title role of "The Empror Jones" is included among the honored guests to be invited.
The question of whether or not Gilpin should be invited rose when the early balloting indicated he might be among the chosen ten, by the Dream League members as those who had contributed most to the theatrre during the current season.
At that time some of the directors suggested that, in the event of the Negro actor being among those chosen, he be awarded a "nice letter" instead of an imitation.
An official statement, in which the signers refused to attend the Drama League dinner unless Gilpin was present, was issued by Ben Andi of "Samson and Dellahil," Dudley Digges of "Heartbroken House," Lee Simonson, scenic director of the theatre, Guild and Moeller and George Cram Cooke, playwrights:
"The undersigned men and women of the theatre, appreciating creature and interpretative ability wherever it springs, feel it our duty to publicly express our indulgence by the Drama League against the distinguished Negro actor, Charles S. Gilpin, now appearing in New York in the title role of "The Emperor Jones."
"It has come to our notice that Mr. Gilpin, for no other reason than that he is a colored man has been eliminated as one of the guests at the Drama League balloting to establish the year's ten biggest contributors to dramatic art.
"Confirmation or denial of this act of prejudice has been refused by the responsible officers of the Dramatic League. In the circumstances, respecting as we do the masterful ability of Mr. Gilpin, we wish to announce our decision to stay away from the Drama League dimmer unless the Drama League sees fit to deny intent to discriminate against Mr. Gilpin.
Gilga Wareal, another invited guest, sent this telegram to the league: "If you invite Gilpin I will be proud to sit meat to him. God forbid that——should do the American stage such a wrong—has been imputed to you with respect to Gilpin."
Eugene G O'Neill, author of "The Emperor Jones" said that, of course he would not attend the dinner "under any circumstances if Mr. Gilpin were deprived.
Mary Garden, on sigging the protest, said she "would be willing to sit with Gilpin. I would like to know who in New York would not sit with him."
Prompted by the discussion as to whether or not the Negro star appearing in "The Emperor Jones" at the Princess Theatre would be invited to the Drama League's dinner as one of the ten men who have served the theatre best in the last year, Charles Gilpin gave out the following statement:
"I want my friends to remember that I am honestly striving to present my art rather than myself to the pub, and in this candleholder I have received the greatest encouragement and courtesy. I have also been treated, both by the press and the public, with a consideration which greatly transcends any consideration which I could possibly deserve. Thus you see I have no right to pose as an object for compassion.
"Against those who do not care to sit in the same dining room with me I have no complaint. This only will I say: Thus far in the world's history no race or profession has ever been permanently juvenile from winning of equality rating for itself.
"Real people everywhere, without regard to color or estate, realize that 'Honor and shame from no condition rise. Act well your part; there all the honor lies."

SAVANNAH, GA., SATURDAY MARCH 5, 1921
WARREN G. HARDING
GOV. MORRISON OPOSED TO KU KLUX KLAN
Newspapers Standing Behind Governor
NO ORDER IS JUSTIFIED TO UNDERSTATE LAW ENFORCEMENT IS REFUSED
Raleigh, N. C., March 2nd (Associated Negro Press)—The announcement of Governor Cameron Morrison's opposition to the operation of the Ku Klux Klan in North Carolina brought considerable support in his position.
A number of the State's leading newspapers are standing behind the Governor and citizens of high standing have informed him of their views.
The thing that aroused the Governor was the use of the Ku Klux Klan as a name with the applied meaning attributed to the old order, and the further fact that the Governor is convinced that no order is justified in undertaking law enforcement in the State by secret means.
Governor Morrison stated definitely that he had never received an invitation to join the Ku Klux Klan, and further stated, just as definitely that he would not entertain such an invitation. The law enforcement bias caused the Governor to balk. The Governor has already been assured by "some of the State's most citizens that the operation of the Ku Klux Klan in North Carolina is withholding prevent danger to the continued peaceful relation between the races. The Negroes of the State, the Governor has been informal, are seriously disturbed by the new organization.
Topeka, Kansas, March 2nd (Associated Negro Press)—Supreme Chancellor S. W. Green of New Orleans; Supreme Vice-Chancellor Earnest Tildington, of Eranville, Ind.; and Major General Robert R. Jack-on of the military department of the Knights of Columbus has completed a visit of Inspection here.
Reports had been circulated to the effect that Topka might not be able to accommodate the biennial session of the Kulights. The visit has dispelled that rumor, and the stamp of approval has been placed on the plans for the August meeting of the supreme officials. The citizens of Topka, numbering about 10,000 of our group will throw open their homes to the visitors, and say they will not charge profiteering rates. The Governor of Kansas, the Mayor of Topka, the Chamber of Commerce and all public spirited citizens are doing every possible thing to make the coming event a success. The encampment will be held in the state fair grounds.
Mrs. Gco. S. Williams and Mrs. Jas. B. Davis left on Monday night, and Mrs. Smith L. Ayers and Mrs. Pearl Smith left Tuesday noon for Washington, D. C. Their main purpose is to attend the national organization meeting of women, and to take in the inauguration.
CHURCH PULPIT TO BE FILLED TOMORROW
Congregational Church Called Pastor
HE WILL TAKE; CHARGE OF THE SERVICES BEGINNING SUNDAY MORNING.
After being without a pastor for eleven months the First Congregational church has called to its pastorate for the ensuing three months, the Rev. Arnold D. Gregory. He arrived in the city Thursday morning accompanied by Mrs. Gregory
[Pictorial portrait of a man in a suit and tie].
The reverend is a graduate of the theological department of Oberlin College, and for the past five years passed in Montreal, Canada, resigning the work there on account of the severity of the winter season. He comes highly recommended by the dean of Oberlin and bears flattering testimonials from some of those among whom he labored.
The pastors of this church have all been numbered among the leading ministers of the denomination and enjoyed to the fullest the confidence and esteem of this community.
No doubt the members and friends of the church will turn out in large numbers both at the morning and evening services to greet Rev. Gregory. The morning service is at 11 o'clock and the evening service at 8 o'clock, at which time communion will be served. The choir will render special music for the occasion.
On Friday night of next week a reception will be tendered Rev. and Mrs Gregory at the church, at which a short program has been arranged. The friends of the church are expected to be present and assist in extending a coralial welcome to the new minister and his wife.

Is Confident Race Will Unite If Informed
LILY WHITEISM SHOULD INCER PROTEST OF EVERY NEGRO IN AMERICA
Washington, D. C., March 2nd (By Associated Negro Press)—Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson, National Committee man from Georgia, and director of the work among our voters during the national campaign, is alarmed at the trend of Republican politics, and calls upon the entire race to rise and vigorously protest against any scheme or plans to make the Republican party "Lily White."
In an exclusive interview for the Associated Negro Press, Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson sets forth the facts as he finds them from close observation here in Washington. He states, "I am confident that our race, if duty informed of its imminent peril and given proper assurances, will unite as one for racial defense here at the seat of government."
The special meeting of the Republican National Committee in Washington, March 3, takes up the reorganization of the party in the South. There is an outspoken "Lily White" movement in practically every southern state, and Will H. Hays, as chairman of the Republican National Committee, appointed a committee, with congressman Bascen Stemp, of Virginia, a known "Lily White," as chairman of the committee.
Asked about this meeting, Col. Johnson said: "I am preparing for the occasion, for from every indication there seems to be a strong tendency in certain quarters to try and make this a white man's country and to transform the Grand Old Party into a white man's party.
"But with my shield, buckled and sword I shall be there, ready for a battle royal and three armed because our cause is just."
Continuing, Col. Johnson said: "The issue of Lily Whitism which is now being brought so prominently to the front, should incur the vitriolic and persistent protest of every Negro pen and voice in America especially at this time and from now on until this democratic germ is completely eradicated from the system of our party.
"I am an optimist by nature, but I must confess the fact that there are grave dangers threatening our statics as citizens and we must be keenly alert and active in order to win this, the battle of our lives."
Col. Johnson here asked the Associated Negro Press to invite the newspapers of the country to take the lead in this great struggle for human rights
He said: "I hope you will make a special effort to have every Negro newspaper in America to immediately sound the tosca of alarm, and let the Negro press of this country rise up in one strong, united protest against this damnable Democratic doctrine of Lily Whitman whose subtle design is to eventually eliminate the Negro from American politics, and to leave as helpless and defenseless politically and otherwise.
"The defeated Democracy is trying desperately to turn defeat into victory by poisoning the arteries of the Republican party, with the damnable nostrums and doctrines being vigorously advertised by Lily Whitman and the Ku Klux Klan. But they must not succeed in their ineffacious purpose. To your tents! O, Isarel."
"Since you have such great faith in the ability of our newspapers to lead in this matter, how would you suggest for them to proceed in order to be most effective, Colonel?"
This is his answer: "It would help me materially in my fight before the Republican National Committee if the editors send copies of their newspapers bearing protests against Lily Whitism, Lynching and against the toleration of any Ku Klux Klan anywhere in America. Send them to 1401 S street, N. W., Washington, D. C. "As far as possible, copies should, also, be sent to Senators, Members of the House, Members of the Republican National Committee, and to daily newspapers inclined to be fair, as well as prominent leaders of public thought and moulders of public opinion." Then Col. Johnson was asked this important question: "Do you think the time is here for an effective 'campaign for justice,' with sufficient funds to do effective work and establish headquarters?"
"Oh God, How badly we need the funds with which to fight effectively in carrying forward our propaganda for right, for justice, for life and against those enemies to America's best interest who are seeking our race's political annihilation. We must fight like the Jews have fought and like other successful races have fought to gain their rights and the respect of their fellows: we must organize our people and maintain headquarters at the most appropriate place where our interest can be protected, and I know I would be pleased to co-operate in bringing our plan of action to the people for I will do more appropriate organization to inaugurate such a popular and practical program than The Associated Negro Press.
"We should maintain headquarters here for carrying forward legitimate propaganda in defense of, and in the interest of our race, to secure the
NATIONAL NEGRO HEALTH WEEK BE OBSERVED
Seventh Annual Clean- Up Campaing be Held LITERATURE ON HEALTH TO BE DISTRIBUTED BY TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE.
Tuskegee Inst. Ala.—In accordance with the resolutions adopted at the recent Annual Tuskegee Conference and in co-operation with the National Negro Business League and other influential organizations, an invitation is extended to many organizations and agencies to unite from April 3rd to 9th in the observance of the Seventh Annual National Negro Health Week. In recent years, especially since the establishment of National Negro Health Week, the death-rate among Negroes has been decreasing. In the past eight years through health education and public health nursing, the death rate of the 1,500,000 Negro policy holders of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company was reduced nine per cent. This shows the importance of having wide-spread information about health improvement. At a recent meeting of representatives of a number of national health organizations, held at Tuskegee Institute, the following program for health week was approved:
Sunday, April 3rd—Sermon and lecture day. Health sermons and lectures by ministers, physicians and other persons. Better sanitation and the reduction of infant mortality should be emphasized.
Monday, April 4th—Hygiene Day, personal and social. Talks by preachers, physicians and other qualified persons. There should be discussions by qualified persons on the control of venereal diseases and the promotion of social hygiene.
Tuesday April 5th—Children's Health Day, Health programs, stories of modern health crusades, parades, etc. Some part of the exercises of this day should be devoted to the commemoration of the birthday of the booker T. Washington, the founder of the National Health Week. It is suggested that on or before this day, school buildings and premises be put in sanitary condition and if programs are rendered in school buildings, patrons be invited to be present.
Wednesday, April 6th—"Swat the Fly" Day. Destroy breeding places of files and mosquitoes; talk on the danger of spreading diseases by rats and insect pests.
Thursday April 7th—Tuberculosis Day. Clean church thoroughly inside and out. Clean the yard of all rubbish, etc.; put toilets in sanitary condition.
Saturday, April 9th—General Clean-Up Day.
It is suggested that a committee be organized in each community to supervise the carrying out of the above program.
Tuskegee Institute will appreciate suggestions for making the campaign a success, and will be glad to furnish or co-operate in helping any individual, or group, to receive the necessary health literature. Address: R. R. Moton, principal, Tuskegee Institute, Alabama.
MEN DRESSED IN WOMANS
CLOTHES QUESTION NEGOES
Montezuma, Ga., March 2nd, (Associated Negro Press)—For several weeks, past there have been reports that some men dressed in woman's clothes have been stopping them on the streets at night and questioning them. Last night after an entertainment at the school house, it is said that three men with dresses on and carrying large butcher knives stood in a place where the larger part of the people passed on their way home "just looking at them" as they went by. Not a word was spoken according to reports. It is maintained that the masqueraders were white.
as American citizens, and to vigorously oppose, inside and outside of Congress, any and all anti-Negro and anti-American Doctrine and practice.
"We should throw around such a plan overy guarantee that whatever funds may be contributed will be effectively applied and properly accounted for."
Ever since the election when Col. Johnson relinquished his duties in Chicago, he has been in Washington in constant touch with Senators, representatives and leaders facing the issues of Negro citizenship, except for the brief period when he visited his homo in Atlanta and made a great plea for national justice.
Col. Johnson states that he is not to wait for the public to act, but is going ahead at his own expense to open headquarters, believing that the public will not fall in their duty to the race.
During inauguration week, when prominent people will be assembled here from every section of the country, it is certain that definite arrangements will be worked out to carry on the "Campaign for Justice," and that a committee will be formed of well known citizens entrusted with the responsibility of raising a fund of $100,000, at least, to do the necessary and effective work suggested by Col. Johnson, who is regarded as the fore-
NUMBER 20
MIN. TO LIBERIA GIVEN MUCH CONCERN
Many 'Are Aspiring For The Position
POLITICIANS STANDING BACK TO SEE WHAT LINK JOHNSON HAS TO SAY.
Washington D. C, March 2nd (Associated Negro Press)—The subject of Minister to Liberia is being considered with a degree of interest that is unusual. Dr. J. I. Johnson, of Columbus, Ohio, is the present Wilson appointee to the African post. Liberia is being hailed as a new field of opportunity, and there is a desire that the American representative shall be truly statesmanlike in proportions.
Dr. Earnest Lyon, of Baltimore, as minister to Liberia under a former administration, is said to be an active candidate for the position. It is stated on high authority, however, that while he is a minister in the Methodist Episcopal church, his appointment would not be received with enthusiasm by Bishop Matthew W. Clair, of the same church, who in also, a statement broad cast, said there are certain records on title in Washington which, if unearthed, would not help Dr. Lyon's candidacy. Among others who have been mentioned for the post, but who are themselves not favorably included for the position are: Dr. Limmot J. Scott, secretary-Treasurer of Howard University; Perry W. Howard, of Jackson; Miss. Councilman Thomas W. Fleming of Cleveland and Rep. Nutter, of Charleston, W. Va.
Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson, in a letter to editor Benjamin J. Davis states that he will never resign as a member of the National committee and that he will never accept any appointment that will take him outside of the United States. All kinds of efforts are being made by "Lily Whites" of Georgia to "got rid of Johnson." Aaron Malone, of St. Louis, J. C. Napier, of Nassau; B.R. Church, of the same city; Andrew Stevens, of印第加 and Robert S. Abbott, of Chicago are among the names mentioned for Registrar of the Treasury. Politicians are all "standing back," as it were, to see what Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson is going to say about his old place as Recorder of Deeds. It is well known that if he desires that position therou is no other person in the country who would have a better chance. In the event that he does not take it, Perry W. Howard would seem to have the next best call.
There is not so much discussion about Auditor for the Navy, which was formerly held by Ralph W. Tyler, but there is a claim upon this place that will be pressed by the fattest.
There is every reason to believe that William H. Lewis of Boston may again have the position of Assistant Attorney General if he desires it. President Harding admires the ability of Lewis, who delivered the principal address on the occasion of the famous "Pirigimage to Marion," last September.
In the matter of appointments, however, there are two important things to be considered, first: colored American citizens are going to make a strong pull for a larger representation than the white population in American administrations, and second: President Harding has announced that it will be the policy of the administration to permit cabinet members to select their assistants and therefore, be held to strict accountability for the conduct of their departments.
The cabinet, from the American Negro point of view is favorable. There is not a southerner on it, and every member of it has familiar detailed knowledge of the "raco problem," and the need for co-operative adjustment. Secretary of State Hughes, for example, has said many favorable things in behalf of racial justice; it has always truined with colored people in politics in his native state of Indiana; the same is true of Harry M. Daugherty, Attorney General of Ohio, and Herbert Hoover is said to be an outstanding exponent of human rights.
There will be scores of "now leaders" who will be willing to serve their country, and then the women, who are now full citizens, will have something to say, Mrs. Letha G. Fleming, of Cleveland; Mrs. Victoria Clay Haley, of St. Louis and Mrs. Mary Church Terrell of Washington, are in constant consultation here at present.
WHITE MAN CHARGED
WITH MURDER OF NEGRO
Chippepper, Va., March 2nd (Associated Negro Press)—Wallace Willoughby, 20 years old, white was arrested by Sheriff J. J. Nash and locked up, charged with the murder of James Robertson.
Hlits of race rioting that followed delayed the arrest. When the murmuring had quieted, Sheriff Nash went to Willoughby's home and found him hiding in a storeroom at the rear of his dwelling. The sheriff also found a sill, it is alleged and thirty gallons of "mash" Willoughby submitted to arrest without disturbance.
Robertson died at the home of friends. He was stabbed through the left lung in an interception following an argument with the accused man, who escaped to his home, according to reports.
Witnesses said hat the white man was drunk and the boy was whispering.

As the time draws near for the 22nd annual session of the Grand Lodge, I, R. P. O. Ellis of the World, interested in who will land the prize as Grand Nat'l Ruler increases. Since the founding of the order twenty-two years ago, only two laymen have been about the honor of presiding at the
head, R. F Howard, founder and H. H. Pace, the others being either lawyers or doctors. At the last session, held in Kansas City, Mo., a law was passed limiting the term of all officers except secretary and treasurer and trustees to a one year term and as a consequence various members are seeking the correlated honor. Some of the most prominent members of the order have announced their intention to seek the place at the Boston session in August, among them are C Henri Lewis W. H. Stanton, W. H. Flemming, Wan R. Morris, lawyers; Major R. R. Jackson, Andrew J. Brown, W. Carey Trueheart, layman. Since the prize cannot go to but one man, and since there seems to be a lawyer monoply when 90 percent of the order is composed of laymen, it is the opion of the writer that, inasmuch as the layman constitute some of the brains members of the order, the due consideration should be given a layman at the forthcoming session, and at least let them know they are members.
President W. W. Galen, Vice President W. L. McCaulley of the board of education, W. Woods White, leading capitalist, addressed more than 200 people, about 90 per cent of them registered voters at Bethel Church Tuesday night in the interest of the election for bonds which is to take place Tuesday March 8. The burden of speech was the part the colored people are expected to play in helping put the bonds over. President Galen stressed the need of schools, sewers, more and better water facilities and said in the course of his remarks that "all of the people needed improved school conditions but that the negro needed them more than any one else." He pledged to use his influence to have set aside a fund to give the Negroans up to date high school with all modern equipment if the bonds carried to which he received long and continued applause.
---
Vice president McCauley gave a graphic description of the deplorable condition of some of the schools, touching the very vitals of his hearers when he said: "I have made a careful survey of all the schools in the city and their needs, some are better than others but I was brought to shame as I went into the basement of that Negro church in the Pittsburgh district when observed that when it rained those little Negro children are forced to wade ankle-deep in water."
He also stressed the importance of other civic improvements, which, he said, would benefit all the people with out regard to race or color, combining with an appeal to the Negroes to show their patriotism by voting for the bonds, for "if you defeat them, you need not come to the city hall any more asking for something when you, with the lack of civic pride, defeated the bonds, which, if they had been
The promise that "we pledge to use our influence to give the Negroes justice," is in the opinion of the writer one of the many ruses by which the white people expect and hope to get the bonds over in order that the whites will be the beneficiaries, and at the same time, to put Atlanta on a par with other southern cities in costly schools for whites.
There is an element here that are opposing the bond issue to the bitter end and is leaving no stone unturned to defeat it and if they carry, the promoters will find it to be one of the hardest undertakings of their lives.
Prof. Wm. Pickens, an executive secretary of the N. A. A. C. P. will address the citizens of Atlanta next Monday evening at Bethel church, his subject being "Abraham - Lincoln." In the meantime, while he is here he will preside over the meeting of the N. A. C. P. in executive session.

Bowen the veteran teacher of theology at Gammon Seminary respondet to the speakers in a happy veh and literally brought the large audience down when he told of how our mothers and fathers had given their lives for the white South, and how they had shed their blood so that even the grass grew as a result thereof.

lined up on every corner, as it were. Colored men and women are more interested this time than ever before, and the question being asked, now that Mr. Harding has selected a ten active cabinet is "what think these men of things as they affect the Negro." The National Women's Party closed its doors, feeling that it had accomplished the purpose for which it was started. Politically speaking colored men and women are not going to be satisfied with just one or two choice positions, but they are insisting that conditions generally for them along all lines especially in the various departments of the government be bettered. With reference to this, a headquarter for Racial Legislation Relief has been opened by Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson and Perry H. Howard. Other matters to be legislated for are lynching, mob violence, disfranchisement and the Ku Klux Klan.

POLICE COMMISSIONER LUCAS
In common with the well-thinking citizens we join in acclaiming Hon. Marion Lucas, our Police Commissioner. For nearly eight years Mr. Lucas has been our very acceptable postmaster. He conducted the affairs of the office in a manner satisfactory to all of its patrons, and the employee even had less to complain about than during the administration of any other postmaster since the lamented Capt. Lamar. From expressions of some of the knowing ones, had not Mr. Lucas resigned he would have had an excellent chance to have retained his position.
It is not doubled that Police Commissioner Lucas will make as fine a record as the head of the police department of this city as he did as postmaster, and it is assumed that so far as the colored citizens are concerned, they have a friend in him, and who will see that no undue advantage is taken of them. Much is expected of Mr. Lucas, and The Tribune feels that he will not give the least disappointment in this direction.
EXIT WILSON-ENTER HARDING
Yesterday marked the passing of Woodrow Wilson after eight years of Democratic rule, during which that party fulfilled utterly to measure up to the full statue of the usual responsibility which the past few perfluous and momentous years laid upon it.
At first a cabinet of medicine men at best, who soon turned recalcitrant because unwilling to lose their personalities and individualities in the self-appropriated omni-science and omni-potence of the President. The stronger man quit flat; the others either merged their identities into that of their chief or lacked the initiative and power to impress their administrations upon the world. Withal it was a colorless group which surrounded the President, surrounding everything.
What will history say about the Wilson administration, as it judges in the after years, soberly and cold-bloodedly, as it must, by setting up the great opportunities of these eventful years against the achievements?
Elected to positions by political accident, and returned to power four years ago on the sentimental program "He kept us out of war", Woodrow Wilson came upon the stage of world affairs with the most wonderful chance to win distinction and the fame of the ages ever offered to man. In the great war, which came on because no power could prevent it, and which involved America in spite of our sacrifices of many sorts to keep out of it the United States occupied a position and political attitude which provided the chance for big men.
But Wilson was visionary, identi-
impractical and failed to see the force
and truth the stern realities involved,
and proved more an instrument of con-
fusion and embarrassment, both at home
and abroad, than any other influence,
in the great distress of the real world
with which he sought to deal.
He set up certain idealism and told the blood-sick nations of the earth that upon such a basic peace and succor must come to a dying and starring and suffering world. Depressed, and seeking comfort, most of those who heard were caught in the spirit of his doctrinaire, little considering or dreaming how visionary and how empty amongst a people used to the harsh notions of life. He had the right of way at Varsallies, because of what he was supposed to represent: his was the position of leader and director of the heart-sore and war-weary host of Europe out of their orgy of misery, if only he had embraced the qualities
essential to such a rare task. But he failed utterly, compromised a nation; was repudiated at home and embarrassed abroad, while Europe is still prostrate and pitiable for all the Wilsonian "Fourteen Points" and self determination, and other evanescent dreams which racked his brain and destroyed his health, and paved the way for his undoing.
Europe gropes; is chaotic and revolutionary with a confusion of princles, prejudices and states of mind; is distrustful, and inert in industry, and trade because bankrup. Wilson and his party is repudiated, as evidenced by a land-slide of popular expression at the polls, and emphasized by the very character of the group which is to succeed him and his.
Senator Harding yesterday became President Harding, taking over the reign of the national government in the name of the great Republican party, and bringing along with him a splendid array of a nation's strongmen. Each, judged on his record, is a best expert in his sphere of administration, which is saying much in the light of those who have just passed. There is much to be done. A thousand sources of restlessness and mistrust need immediate adjustment.
unrest, unemployment and panic. The job of the new executive is man-size. The nation hopes: is expectant and somewhat relieved, in the faith that there is to be a return to normal, a revival of peace and prosperity. We are immensely concerned, and we shall watch the march of events with working and praying.
STANDARD WROTE A $13,729,169
BUSINESS LAST YEAR
1920 Was Banner Year For Insurance Company
Atlanta, Ga., March 2nd—The record of the Standard Life Insurance Co., for last year indicates that it is rapidly growing in popularity. At any rate it is nevertheless a fact that 1920 was the Company's banner year. Her agents put more new business on the books than for any single year since the company was organized. That is to say they wrote $13,729,160 worth of in surance that was accepted by the Home Office. If all the applications sent in had passed successfully the total for the year would have many thousands more. The policies range from $500 to $10,000.
At the same time the company paid death claims amounting to $90,063,344. When one thinks of what this must have meant to the widows and orphans whose husbands and fathers left them thus provided for, he can have some conception of the good this organization is doing among the people of the colored race. Meanwhile the Company has paid into the hands of its policy holders since its organization eight years ago, death claims amounting to $341,072.11. In addition to this when the depression in business struck our country last fall, many farmers and other property owners who are policyholders borrowed money of the Standard Life to save their homes. Scouts were helped in this war.
NEGRO NIGHT AT TUSKEGEE
Tuskegee, Inst. Ala., Feb. 20th—That the Negro boy and girl have every right to be proud of their race was fully and very clearly shown, by the splendid program rendered by members of the Senior Class in the Institute chapel, Monday evening. The term "Negro Night" was applied to the evening as the program consisted of selections concerning the Negro. Orations were delivered pertaining to every phase of Negro development, achievement and contribution to civilization In addition to these numbers, music selections, written by Negro composers were rendered, among which were compositions of Harry T. Burleigh, J. Hosmond Johnson and two students of Tuskegee Institute, William L. Dawson and Alonzo P. Small.
The program was inspiring and interesting as well as instructive. The Senior Class and Prof. J. A. Wilson, head of the English Department, deserve much credit for the unique program which was in keeping with the general movement to inspire pride, race, by teaching the children of the race more about the real achievements and contributions of the Negro, by using Negro literature in Negro school.
MAMMOTH AUDIENCE HEARS
MOREHOUSE GLEE CLUB
Considered The Best of All College Orchestra
Augusta, Ga.,—The Morehouse College of Atlanta, Ga., gave Augusta the musical treat of the season with two concerts at the Lenox Theatre, Friday afternoon and night, February 25th. This organization contains thirty well trained musicians and the class of music they rendered and the ability with which they rendered it, proved alarming to the two audiences which filled the theatre. It is estimated that two thousand people witnessed the two concerts.
It is not enough to say that the orchestra is the best of all college orchestras of the race; it is the best orchestra of the race. After the Friday night concert, Dr. R. Craig Williams, a prominent physician, said he had heard the great white orchestras in New York and Chicago but could find just a little difference between them and the Morehouse orchestra. Prof. Kemper Harrold, the celebrated violinist, is direct or.
By a phenomenal coincident, Pres John Hope, of Morsehouse was present at the concert. He was requested to speak, and responded. He said that this was his first time to hear the organization while on the road, and expressed his delight of its performance. The Lenox theatre when completed will be one of the finest of the race. It is owned by four colored citizens of Augusta. These conerts were given under the auspices of the Young Women's Christian Association.
HAMPTON HOLDS 1921
BASKETBALL CHAMPIONSHIP
One Of The Most Thrilling Games Ever Witnessed At Hampton
Hampton, Va., March 2nd—The Howard University basketball quintet, fresh from its victory over "the Seasiders" in Washington, journeyed to Hampton for the annual Washington's Birthday clash, confident of victory. Howard's slogan for this year has been: "Win Every Game." During the final minutes of play in the first game, the wonderful Howard spirit turned a certain defeat into victory, living up to their slogan. It was natural, then, that although they expected a great contest, Coach Morrison felt that his proteges would come out victorious.
The annual Washington's Birthday game is the baskettail classic of the season, and the fans of the Lower Peninsular were out in force to cheer their favorites on to victory. It was no in the final moments of the game that great playing was done, but at the sound of the refresher whistle there began the hardest, fastest, and one of the most closely-contested struggles ever witnessed at Hampton. The defensive work of both teams was par excellence. Baskets were shot under the teams matched that the first half the teams matched that the first half ended with the score 9 to 9.
With the beginning of the second half Howard came back with that wonderful spirit which she is known to pos

SEVENTH ANNUAL STATEMENT for the six months ending December 81, 1920, of the conditions of the Great Southern Fire Insurance Company
Of Atlanta, Georgia
Organized under the laws of the State of Georgia, made to the Governor of the State of Georgia, in pursuance of the laws of said State.
Principal Office—178 Auburn Avenue.
L. CAPITAL STOCK
The game was declared by the spectators to be one of the most thrilling ever witnessed at Hampton. No final exhibition of self-control and real sportsmanship has ever been witnessed in any of our contests. The two teams were nearly equally matched, with Hampton having a slight advantage in the passing game. Every player on both teams did his best. Sims at center for Howard was easily the Washington star, whilo Jones and Chamberlain at guard and Saunders at forward played stellar ball for Hampton.
At the sound of the timekeeper's whistle, with the score 21 to 18 in Hampton's favor, the student body cheered wildly and left the spacious gymnasium happy, feeling that this was the ending of a perfect day.

HAMPTON-TUSKEGEE
CLUB ENTERTAINS
On Friday night Feb. 15th at the
house of Miss Jupita Conyers,
the members of the Hampton-Tuskegee
club held their first social of the sea
season. The dining and living rooms
were beautifully decorated with crimi-
son, gold, white and blue colors of
the two schools intermingled forming bell.
The female graduates were dainty
caps of the school colors in Dutch
form.
An interesting program was render-
ed, by the different members. Prof.
S. H. Lee, demonstration agent from
Griffin, Ga., rendered three beautiful
vocal selections on the latest com-
position, "Forever Thine" by William L.
Mrs. L. A. Pinstone's recitation war
Mrs. L. A. Pinstone's recitation was
full of humor. Miss Ethel Ross was
pleasing in her vocal solo, Mr. W. R
Bryant the president, told the aim of
the Hampton-Tuskegee club.
The guests of the club for the evening were the country and home demonstration agents.
Under the supervision of Prof. E A. Williams who held their meeting during the week in Savannah, a number of these workers are graduates of Hampton-Tuskegee, with the city friends the guest numbered over fifty.
As usual Miss Coupers proved a charming hostess, assisted by Miss Daisy Conyers and Miss M. V. Pantahon. Messas, W. M. Graham, Parker Dr. Moody, Pope and Ira L. Bryant served the refreshments, the cake for the occasion was made at Culper Junior High in the domestic science kitchen, taught by Miss Cornelia McDowell, carrying out the school idea as Prof. J. W. Huber<sup>7</sup> is a former teacher of Tuskegee.
The entire affair will long be remembered, the members are looking forward to another social gathering in the near future, with big plans for the Hampton-Tuskegee club whose motto is "We ask not for rest, but strength to them on."

Washington D.C. March 2nd Associated Negro Press - A new chapter in the history of club life in Washington was begun when the Muso Lif for nally opened its newly acquired club house, located on B. street. This club has pursued its objects, musical, social and literary, for some years, holding its meetings and functions in places loaned or rented for each separate extension. Their affairs and functions have always been marked by the participation of noted speakers and art-
justs both colored and white. The membership limited to two hundred, embroidered persons of higher profession at attainment. Permanent quarters, sometimes under consideration, are now a happy realization.
A handome and spacious building has been acquired, thoroughly renovated, of decorated and furnished. The first floor contains the reception room, music room and dining room; the second offices of the Board of Governors, the library and card rooms; the third floor is fitted up as sleeping apartments of guest rooms. A basement room is equipped for billiards, and there is a well equipped kitchen.
The Honorable Archibald Grinke, President of the Washington branch of the N.A.A.C.P. principal speaker of the opening, was enthusiastically received as he told of the hardships of Frederick Douglass' youth, at the formal opening of the Club. He said in part:
"It is difficult to account for the origin of genius. It is certainly difficult if not impossible to account for the origin of the genius of Frederick Douglass. Whence came his extraordinary gifts for eloquence and leadership? From his father? Well hardly, for he did not and we do not know who his father was. From his mother? Who
knows? For she was a slave of whom he knew little and we know logs. There was no man whom this mother knew, whether white or black, who was the equal of her son in talents or who attained a position of distinction at all comparable with the one reached by him in this country in which he was born a slave and lived a slave until he reached the age of twenty-one. Was it the environment, was it the blood, half white, half Negro, half free, half slave the mingling of the racial instincts and social heredity of

the two races in him? Perhaps, but however that may be there must have been something peculiar to him in this blending of the strains of two races to account for him. For the blend in countless other instances produced no other white man just like Frederick Douglass.
The friends of Mr. Jako Wright will be glad to know that he is rapidly improving. Dr. Geo. M. Irans has successfully completed vaccinating the entire colored help of the DeSoto Hotel. Mrs. Lala Bursou is at the Ga. In firmary where she underwent a serious operation. Mr. Abe R. Goodwin who has been sick for the past three weeks is much improved.

INTERESTING NEWS FOR FARMER
A Word To The Negro Farmers
(By Ben F. Hubert)
This is no time to become discontent. If you have lost in the farming game do not be disheartened or ashamed to start again in a new way and it necessary on a smaller scale.
We are constantly receiving inquiries from farmers in all sections of the country, for suggestions 84 to how they should farm and manage their affairs so they will be able to meet the new conditions of today. Wherever we have spoken we have emphasized the necessity of the farmer keeping in his courage and not losing faith in himself or in his life's work.
Every Body Has Lost Money
The farmer has lost money and is in debt. This condition of affairs has not been due to anything that the farmer has done himself or that he has not done but to certain economic reactions that have followed the conditions that preceded during and immediately after the World War. The farmer of the South has not been the only one to suffer. The corn farmer of the middle west, the wheat grower of the northwest, and the wheat grower of the far west, and the cattle raisers have all told the plight of low prices for products that were produced with high price labor and capital, with the understanding that high prices were to be obtained for the same. The wholesale merchant has not been able to sell to the retail merchant, and in turn has not received orders from his customers. So we can be I. I that all though we were hard hit, and probably the hardest hit of all classes, we were not the only class that has suffered.
I would like to emphasize again that the farmers should begin to think in small terms. He should by all means cut down his expenses when and who it is possible to do. Make up your mind that the crop of this year must cost less than last year's crop. Us all the barn yard manure possible, and in this way cut down the amount of common fertilizer necessary for the farm. Have old plows and wagon rails repaired. In this way we will save a great deal by the end of the year.
1. Plant a small increase of cotton. There is already enough cotton in the world to supply the world's need for another year. Partners have cotton stored in wintershouses and at their homes. This cannot be sold at a price anywhere near the cost of production. Why grow a crop? Cut down the cotton crop for a minimum of six or seven years to plow. Utilize this well, work it fast so that it will pay you well.
2. Plant lots of corn, wheat bean
pear, soybean sugar cane, peanuts
etc. sufficient for you own use,
and for the livestock that you have,
and have some to sell. When you have
enough to eat things may break
against you but you are safe.
1. Get all hard one box for each powl. Feed this powl well so she will help take care of the family.
2. Two blood sows for each powl will use all the refuse from the farm and turn all surplus crops into marketable products.
3. Keep plants of chickens. They do not cost much, but always provide a most nutritious food for the table. There is hardly ever a time that you cannot find or sale for chickens and eggs. Fifty to one hundred hours on a farm will always pay in dollars and cents, and will furnish ready money. I have recently visited a community where fifteen thousand dollars ($15,000) worth of furrys were sold last year.
6. Orchard start a small orchard, how so that we can have fruit for ourselves and for sale.
7 By all means, let's have an all the year and around garden this year, nothing ever gets better.
8 Farm accounts. This year there should be nothing done without a record kept of the same. We are be beginning a new way of farming, and how can we know when we succeed with a crop unless we have some record of what it has cost us to grow this year?
Do Not Sell Your Farm
Farmers should not sell their land.
We should hold to every note of Land we have. There will be provided some way for the man who wants to stay, and continue in possession of his farm. Farm Land is becoming cheap. Every man who has opportunity and some money should plan to invest in a farm when the prices of land goes down.
Let's Have Community Co-operation
Get together with your neighbors and buy what you need, and sell your surplus crops. Get together for better schools, better houses, and a more whole-social life.
The colored farmers of Pierre county have just used a two day's meeting at Black-hear, Ga. Dr. A. H. Hinesman, the county demonstration agent for Pierre and Warre counties is very much pleased as to the way the farmers responded and attended the meeting. Some of the leading white citizens of Black-hear attended the meeting and spoke to the farmers and were held in their praise to award the county agent for the splendid showing he is making among the colored people of Pierre county. Mr. T. B. Wiley, the white county agent was present and judged the club pigs and Miss Amie Stafford awarded the prizes to the boys of the pig and corn club, and girls in the canning club.
Many of the farmers are now preparing to plant watermelons and beans for there's money in this crop this year instead of planting so much cotton and tobacco.
The white people of Blackshear are
hurting the colored people to pull off
a fair next fall and are pledging their support.
Dr. Hinesman is now putting on a drive toward this end, and feel that by the close cooperation of the color he will be able to report and excellent he will be able to report an excellent success in the county fair next fall.
Farmers Conference
The farmers' executive conference to be held at the Sistersboro High school Thursday and Friday of next week promises to be one of the greatest meetings of its kind held in the state. Some of the leading agriculturists and educators of the country will address the meetings. Prof James and his able corps of teachers are sparing no pains to make the meeting a success.
Improvement Demonstration at Darien
At Darion, GA, on March 1, an
instructive demonstration was conducted
in the building of a sanitary toilet

using the government formula of white
wash paint. Miss Jannita Conyers
Home Demonstration Agent of Clat-
ham County and Miss Jannita C. Stony
Home Demonstration Agent of Liberty
county, held a demonstration in re-
arranging the dinking and living room,
presenting the art of hanging picture
making using white curtains and
drapes, carrying out the color
scheme; and so arranging the furni-
ture to make the room appear lar-
k pleasing and attractive.
Additional cost for improvement
of the room less than $360.
This demonstration was witnessed by the pupils of the Todd public school of which Prof. James L. Grant is pth. dipl. The domestic sector class of this school taught by M. S. Guran was given instructions in moving the white wash paint.

Department of Agriculture in supporting a home demonstration agent for Melville county, to be placed in this section within the next few weeks.
P. F. James V. H. Sims assisted L. the demonstration.
The 16th Annual Farmers' Conference was held in the auditorium of The Fort Valley High and Industrial School Thursday and Friday, Feb 25, 2023. There was an unusually large number of farmers, mini-terms, teachers and businessmen from Houston and surrounding counties and many prominent visitors from other sections. Here was an unusually fine exhibition of food products especially home-cured meats, Georgia candy caramel fruits, vegetables and butter. There was also a spindled display of history and industrial work done by the students of rural schools of Houston county, Mr. O. S. Oneal, U. S. Veteran Demonstration Agent, Mrs. O. S. Oneal Homemakers Club Agent an Mrs. C. P. Stephens, Jeanne Supervisor, are doing most of the work results of which are to be seen in the fact that there is not even a sugar stuff of offering for lack of foodstuff by the people in this section, many farmers having supplied sufficient quantities to last them eighteen months or two years. Marked improvement is being made in the rural schools also made the energetic supervision of Mrs. C. P. Stephens.
In note of the severity of right cast there was a note of confidence running through the report read by the President of the Farmers' Community Club and others who took part in the public discussion. Mrs. Desele Stanley Wood director of the department of home economies for the State of Georgia and her assistant, Mrs. Georgia Crowsmith helpful addresses of special interest to the women, and Mrs. Onael Nomakerim club agent for Houston county together with Mrs. Nellie M Bunn, homemakers club agent for Bldb county, also spoke and gave demonstrations showing how the work in the home could be limited for women to the farm. Mr. E. A. Williams, State Demonstration Agent gave a most interesting address urging the farmer not to make the mistake of planting all cotton, Mr. George Bittan Cunningham, Asst State Superintendent Athena, Ga., gave an interesting address and Mr. A. G. Richardson, head of Live Stock Department for the State gave an interesting and instructive lecture to the farmers. Prof M. C Moosey, County Superintendent of Education was another of the prominent speakers, Mrs. Margarj. J. Towner read a most interesting paper on the "Operation of the Husband and Wife, making Work on the Farm a success."
The outstanding address of the meeting were made by Mrs. Alice D Careg, President of Woman's Federation of Clubs, Mr. A. J. Evans, President of the Citizens Bank, Fort Valley, and Principal H. A. Hunt.
More than a hundred dollars worth of prizes were awarded for excellence along various lines, after which farmers went back to their homes more determined than ever to overcome the present financial situation.

AMONG THE MASONS
IGNORANCE VS MASONRY
Ignorance is the greatest foe of Masonry today.
We mean ignorance on the part of those who oppose Masonry.
If the foes of Masonry really understood its teachings and its tenets they would be the friends, rather than the enemies of our ancient and honorable institution.
For there is absolutely nothing in Masonry that conflicts with religion or morality. It conflicts with no church or creed. It conflicts with no man's political or social standing.
On the contrary Masonry is the friend. yes, the handmaiden of religion.
It stands for all that is best in the moral and social world.
Then why should any church oppose it? Why should any individual oppose it? There is but one answer ignorance.
But how shall we gather this ignorance? Not by abuse and persuasion. That is not Masonic. But by patiently and persistently educating the public mind, by setting forth with dignity and decum, the fundamental principles of our order, and, above all, by illustrating Masonry in our daily walk and conversation.
By their fruits, shall we know them, and the fruits of Masonry are good will, brotherhood and peace.
As Masons we are guilty never to begin any great undertaking, without invoking the blessings of Diaty. How the many Masons observe this injunction.

PURITY AND CHARACTER
Over the outer coat of the plant and apricot there grows a bloom more beautiful than the fruit itself—a soft delicate powder that overspreads its rich color. Now, if you strike your hand over that, and it is once gone, it is gone forever—it only appears once.
The flower that hangs in the morning empaired with dew—arranged with jewels—once shake it, so that the beads roll off, and you may sprinkle water over it as you please. yet it never can be made again what it was when the dew fell gently from heaven.
On a frosty morning you may see the panes of glass covered with landscapes, mountains, lakes and trees blended into a beautiful, fantastic picture. Now lay your hand upon the glass, and by the warmth of your palm, all the delicate tracery will be obliterated. So there is in youth a beauty and purity of character, which, when once touched and deified, can never be restored—a fringe more delicate than frost work, which when torn and broken will never be required. When a young man or girl leaves the parents' house, with the blessings of a mother's tears, will wet upon her check if early purity of character be once lost, it is a loss that can never be made up again. Such is the consequence of crime its effect cannot but be in some way felt, though God's mercy it may be forgiven - S R Bulletin.

Does Not Believe "All is Rosy" In Haiti
WOULD BE PLEASED TO MET MR. JOHNSON AND DISCUSS EXPERIENCES JOINTLY.
Chicago, IL. March 2nd (Associated Negro Press) - Lys Witness, the famous special correspondent of the Chicago Tribune, who has recently returned from an extended trip to the Republic of Haiti, takes issue with James Weldon Johnson, of New York, Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, on the term "atrocities."
Eye Witness, in an exclusive interview for the Associated Negro Press, states that he would be pleased to meet Mr. Johnson in Chicago on some future date and jointly discuss their experiences in the island republic. While disagreeing with Mr. Johnson's statement in part, the famous writer desires it understood that he does not believe that "all is to say" there in that and further, it is very evident from his manner that he approaches the entire subject with sympathetic interest.
The Witness stated that the big mistakes being made in judging the conduct of the entire marine force of the American government by the conduct of not more than one per cent this latter per cent, being contemptuous and insistent to the people and not representative of the best in America. It is unfortunate he stated further, that for the most part the forces are composed of southerner who, instinctively Tail to have the proper respect for black people. Again, speaking of Mr Johnson's visit to Haiti, Eyewitness stated that "I fear Mr Johnson goes his impersonation from the three per cent of in intellectuals in the Republic, and no from going back among the people who live in the outlying parts of the island.
Among important points brought out are these: "There have been 50 to 100 cases of unnecessary hostility and viciousness on record." That the Americans have bungled their job fully and made tautless errors which render very difficult the tasks of achieving the good which should be in our physical . . .
That the greatest mistake had been made in sending a lot of southern of tiers and southern marines who tried to use southern methods in dealing with the ploud and sensitive Haitian in his own country, thereby winning their hatred for all Americans.
That the educated Hattan was a pro-
late and polish gentleman, having in
most instances received his education
in France, but that 97 per cent of the
population was illiterate, talking only
an Africanized French, which is not
even written and that their desire is
notance and lack of initiative has
made it impossible for them to cope
with the duties of administering a re-
publican form of government.
That the only way he could account
for the situation was that these people
taken from Africa had been benefet
of their tribal control and customs
and plunged into a slavery even greater
so that there had been no progres

That a wonderful opportunity existed for the colored American to in some aid the 3,000,000 Haitians to develop themselves and their country which is so rich in natural resources and commercial possibilities.

Dear Sirs:
I am interested in your Nmas savings club and want to join a Nmas savings club at the Laborers' Penny Savings & Loan Co.
This is my first attempt to have a Nmas savings account.
I think by a little stroll on my part of some nicknacks I can manage to keep up the ten cents club.
So I want to join your ten cents club.
I will pay each week ten cents so that I can have the acquired amount at Nmas time.
I think every boy and girl should form the habit of saving and my throw away every penny on no little he or she has.
If they once formed the habit of saying it will come easier to them and when they grow older they will always save a part of their earnings and be indeendent.
When too old to work they will have a nice income to support them in their fiddle days and will not have to beg
Yours truly

Gentlemen:
gentlemen:
I am writing a small argument on my ideas of saving.
Every individual, old or young who is able to work should save a certain per cent out of each dollar.
Many people have the habit of saving and are learning to save more each day instead of going to the store every time they get a penny.
If we save the pennies, they will soon amount to dollars.
Suppose we would save one cent each day, why in a week we would have seven cents; in two weeks four ten cents; in three weeks twenty-one cents and on throughout the year, we would surely be in the habit of saving.
As has been said, "charity begins at home" and then spreads abroad. We must begin and remain remain in our own L. P. S. and L. O. and patronize our own business institution then we would have better banks, stores and many other colored restaurants. It is not raining today but there will surley be a rainy day sometime.
Another idea is this. If we live to get old and cannot work: if we have been storing away anything, we will have this on which to depend.
As the story goes about the ant and the grasshopper—the grasshopper i going around singing and dancing while the ant is working, storing away food for winter. That is the way with some of us. We are doing as the grasshopper does, singing and dancing while others are working, in other words, you are at the min strels and other things similar, when you haven't any investment other than the theatre.

I am proud to say that our people are learning more and more each day to do as the act. As I have said you do not need at present, but some day you will. So my advice to you is to start your savings in the Laborers Penny Savings and Loan Co. bank.

Dear Sir:
I am very glad indeed that you have asked me to write a little argument that will persuade people to save their money.
Notes from Reedsville School Dear Shr:
Well, I do think that it is a very foolish idea for people to waste their money.
The very best thing for people to do with their money is to put it in a bank, for a rainy day will surely come along, and they will not have a cent to their name.
An other thing that they could do with it is to give their children a good education, because they will need it sure, when they are grown up to be young men and women.
Our banks and firms are calling for educated boys and girls, but where are they? In the streets running truck- and pushing baby carriages. Why? All because they did not get an education when they were small.
And this is what I think people should be doing with their money in giving their children a good education so that it will help them in the future to be better men and women instead of wasting it and throwing it away. And I wish that you would hang this poster up in the building. "Save your money and be better citizens."
Very truly yours.
Marc H. Davis,
Seventh grade A, Reedsville
High School.

Clara Johnson, the victim of the race riots, will遗憾 receive quite a good sum of money about $600, with which to prosecute her claim for release from the charge of causing the death of Detective Sergent Wilson. An organization composed of young women, mostly teachers in the colored public schools, termed the Polygannas, held a fashion show in one of the largest auditoriums here, at which young society women displayed the latest creations in gowns and millinery. It is significant to note that many of the gowns were designed by colored women, while most of the hats were also made by milliners of color.
The prominent hairdressers and beauty specialists had active participation. The corporation owing the aid ditorium donated its use free, and a record breaking crowd turned out. Clara Johnson, however, is already out on ball the Rev. W. H. Fernagh, pastor of Mount Camel Baptist church, having become surely for her.
The number of deaths by violence continue to increase with alarming extent. Another colored man met death during the week as the result of an argument growing out of a whiskey deal. One man became razzed and shot three persons, two white and one colored.

THE SAVANNAH TR
61 Blackwell St.
Waycross Gt.
I am writing you this argument to persuade people to save their money. I think that every boy or girl, man or woman should have a Christmas Savings club or either a savings account. My reason for saying this is that there are so many children hanging around the street throwing away their money for unnecessary things, such as candy, crackers and picture shows, and so many other things I am mention. I think it is a very foolish idea. We can save a small sum of money every week and put it in the bank and some time in December near the Noisas holidays, we will have it. Then this will be the time to spend it. When we see the little boys and girls eating their nice fruits and nuts and then you will feel bad when you haven't any.
But listen! My main point about saving is to put your money in the bank and save it. You may not need it at the present time, but some day you will need it. Such as when you are sick or when you get old and are not able to work. When you get sick and have no money to pay your doctor's bill. I mean you are in pretty bad shape.
And if it is one bad sight to see, it is to see an old woman or man go round from house to house begging for money, and some time when sleeps some in town you can find forty or fifty of all different rates begging for money. But if they had saved their money when they were young they would have good clothes to wear and also plenty of good food to eat.
So this that my mind about

In my heart comes a longing.
If you only could come home.
Off and off my thoughts do wonder
To the grave so far away;
Where they tidied my Mildred garling.
Just one year ago today.
A precious one from me has gone.
A voice I loved is stillled;
A place is vacant in my home.
Which never can be filled.
More and more each day I miss you.
Friends may think the wound is heal ed;
But they little know the sorrow.
That lies within my heart concealed.

EVANS - In midnermon of Miss Milkdred Evans On Tuesday afternoon, March 2nd 1920 God took into him the soul of one of Savannah's most beloved young ladies. Miss Milkdred Evans She went away just as she had lived quietly and peacefully. Her passing into eternity was like a well worn book, filled with beautiful thoughts. An admirable daughter, a kind neighbor and a true friend. She was always devoted to her church, delighted when her health permitted her to attend until God called her to dwell with the angel above. For the Angles have received another soul.
That was more precious than Gold.
I would not say to the loyal ones
dont weep, for I wopt with you. Remember our savior wept at the tomb of
Lazarius, and we believe that it is not
wrong. She had a kind warg for all
that she met, though God knows best
she hath done what she could, said the
Master
To the angle of death one day:
Go call her home to her reward.
So the angle speed away.
We would not call her back. O death,
for her life's work was good.
But the sweetest remembrance to us is
left.
To us she has done what she could. May God's tender love and mercy at tend all the loved ones, may they re-member that God death all things well. A great warmth is felt in their hearts. A sweet life is ended. Though one year ago she finished her work here. But we cannot say she has finished her life. It is morning there and a glorious work has just begun. I extend to the family my deepest sympathy and love in their great sorrow. May God comfort them in this sad hour.

gonds Dec. 12, 1850.
Resolved, that in the death of Sister
Owens, Tithinga Haug has not only lost
a member but a true friend. The of
friends and members mourn her loss.
She was a God fearing woman and
hore no malice towards any. She walk
daily in the fear of her creator, al-
ways endeavoring to let her light shine
so that her works be seen and
contributed towards those who needed
assistance. No worldly goods or mon-
key can compensate for her loss that
she is at rest, there can be no doubt
and that we cannot replace her we be
beneath there no doubt. We can only how
In humble submission to the great God
Who is who to take a mistake and

EVANS—In sad but loving memory of our friend, Miss Mildred D. Evans, who fell asleep March 2, 1920.
Just one year ago you left us.
And the days seem very dreary.
For the hearts you left are lonely.
And the way is long and weary.
For many months we watched you
Like a flower fade away,
But we always hoped and prayed
That there would be a brighter day.
But we could not stay the cruel Reaper
We did all but 'twas in vain
He came and took away our jewel
Came and took away our friend.
The memory of you will always linger
And the place you left is vacant still
For there is a void in our hearts
That no other friend can fill
So we fondly gather around thy testing
place
Die you gently passel away.
There is one sweet thought that shootes
Each weary, broken heart.
There is a land of promise
Where we shall meet no more to part.
Just beyond the River Jordan
In that land so bright and fair.
There you await our coming
In the Upper Garden there
Her devoted friends, Mrs. Edna
Simpkins
Miss Ether D. Snowden

SUB-COMMITTEE WINS FIGHT IN COURT
Hon E. H. Morris Fully Sustained by Court
PENNSYLVANIA COURT RECENTLY HANDED DOWN INTERESTING DECISION
Atlanta, Ga. March 3. Of interest to the Old Yellow in general through out the length and breadth of this country and other countries over which the Sub Committee of Management has jurisdiction, will be the news to learn that the Supreme Court of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, in a decision handed down February 28, fully sustained Hon. H. H. Morris and associates for their actions in postponing the 19th B. M. C., which adjourned at Washington in September 1966 to meet in New York September 1968, but which was postponed on account of so many members of the or der being in the war, and due to the fact that the committee on entertainment in New York signified its disability to care for the delegates because of inadequate housing facilities and other reasonable causes.
The rank and title of the order were generally satisfied at the postpone-ment and voted their approval at the action taken. Not a word of protest was heard against the decision of the S. C. M. by a single loyal member of the order and all were satisfied to wait and combine the 19th and 20th B. M. C.'s in one grand jubilee as was done.
But a few office seekers who had tried for years to get a hold of the order, conceived the idea to make a so-called B. M. C., elected themselves to the office and actually went into Common Pleas Court No. 2 of Philadelphia in January 1919 with quo waranto proceedings to get offices which they had not been granted to be court proceedings. But they lost and took an appeal to a higher court, regardless of the learned decision of Justice Furgerson. Their appeal was argued, given to a jury as they desired and they temporarily won. Knowing that the office seekers had not exhausted their remedies before the courts of the order, the S. C. M. who had been regularly elected by the people and who were duty bound to protect them took an appeal from the decision of the jury to a still higher court and won. Not satisfied with the ruling of the high court they carried their case to the supreme court and forever lost any hope of ever sitting as officers of the S. C. M.
The demonstration in New York last September in which more than 2000 delegates of men and women the showed themselves loosely with their respects, approval of the acts of the present president, authorization was sufficient to motivate the unarmed that they were not wanted. It was further shown that they were on the wrong side when the fired less than 100 so-called delegates assembled at Wilmington. Del. had their meeting and adjourned in less than three hours.
The fight of the S. S. was not the fight of men who were seeking to stay in office; it was the fight of the people acting through their chosen representatives with motives as pure DIS. DIS.
Grand Master Morris and his assistants have won a great and lasting victory for the people and the righteous cause which they represent, they have contended from the outset that a deserthold scheme was set on foot to wreak the order but knowing the people's cause was right, they never felt any doubt of the out come which is a complete victory.

Under the present law, bomb throwing is listed as conspiracy and the punishment is imprisonment for from one to five year. The text of the new measure as announced by State's Attorney Crowle is follows: "Any person or persons who shall attempt to use or use, or who shall have in his or her possession for the purpose of using, dynamite or any nitrochlorate or any other explosive compound for the unlawful injury to or the unlawful destruction of property in any place whatsoever, shall be deemed guilty of a felony and upon conviction thereof shall be punished by imprisonment for a term of not less than ten years or for life.
Representative O'Grady of Chicago i introduced a bill in the legislature alced at gunnison. It provides that no person may purchase a revolver or pistol in Illinois without presuring the permission of the chief of police or town marshal. Nearly days after the act goes into force, all owners of revolvers or pistols must register them with the police.
