VOL. XXXVI PRINCIPAL J. H. C. BUTLER PASS- ES AWAY Teacher In City Schools Forty-Eight Years HAD BEEN IN FAILING HEALTH FOR SEVERAL MONTHS Professor James H. C. Butler, who died at his home last Tuesday, was the pioneer of education among the colored people of this city and section, having come here direct from Atlanta University, in 1873. He has been principal of West Broad Street school since 1878. If he had lived two years longer, he would have completed half a century of service in the teaching of the youth of this city. Mr. Butler had been in failing health for several months but had been confined to bed for only five days. (4) Proof Butler, as was said in the Savannah Morning News, on the morning following his death, was a man of "adranced education," with little or nothing of the novel and sad in his work. He was thorough in himself, and insisted in thoroughness in the execution of the detail of school work to both teachers and pupils who came under him; and hence the work of those who came from his school is marked for its thoroughness and completeness. Almost from the beginning of his career, Professor Butler has had the loyal help of his wife and their friend of years, Miss Alice B. Miller, associated with him in the work at West Broad, and throughout the nearly fifty years of their labors West Broad Street School has been well known for the excellence of scholarship of its pupils, and for the great service which the school has done for the section in which it is located. Mr. Butler was a man of rare literary tastes and most gentle refinement of personality, and he always impressed one, without show or affection that he was the natural gentleman, in grace and manner. He kept abreast of the times in the literature and current information of the day, and was an interesting and engaging companion of all classes of the people, learned and unlettered, high and low, young and old. He was at home (with little children and the elderly found in China pleasing and gracious company). It would be difficult to estimate the vast number of boys and girls whose lives he taught as teacher and guide in the long service he gave to the city schools, and it is no wonder that the thousands of young and old turned out to pay the last tribute of respect to him upon the occasion of his death. Mr. Butler was born in this city April 14, 1852. He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Sarah J. Butler, and one son, James H. Butler, manager of The Savannah Tribune. His funeral was conducted at his home on West Henry street on Wednesday afternoon the Rev. Arnold L. Gregory of the First Congregational church officiating. The music was rendered by the A. U. Quartet. Interment was at Laurel Grove cemetery. The following acted as pill bearers Sol. C. Johnson, R. A. Denegall, M. G. Robertson, Sr., R. W. Gadven, J. G. Lemon, and S. A. Grant. As a mark of respect for the splendid service which his life has been to this community, several of the banks and business houses closed the afternoon of the funeral. ST.

Illinois And New York First States Affected Quick Action Is Deemed Urgent And Necessary to Warn Publie Chicago, Ill., April 13th (Associated Negro Press)—The Beauty Culture Trust is seeking to destroy the hurldressing business among the colored people throughout the country. Competition is the direct cause for this action on the part of the trust. This powerful organization is endeavoring to procure legislation action in the several states that will contain restrictive provisions which will literally choke its colored competitors to a hasty business death. Illinois and New York are the first states to feel the fangs of the "trust" in this respect. Bills have been introduced in the respective legislatures of these states which provides for an educational qualification for all who engage in the business of hairdressing in these two compartmentals. The main and dangerous features of the provisions of these proposed measures are the requirements of the examinations included in their text. If these bills become law no one will be permitted to engage in the business who has not passed an examination that will be pre-certified and prepared by commissioners whose personnel will be determined by the "trust" interests. Already chloproly is so restricted that a course equivalent to two years in medical college is necessary. This real and immediate danger is to be met with an immediate front by the companies who constitute our end of the hairdressing business. The outcome of this determination is a definite proposal to organize what is to be known as The National Association of Beauty Cultureists. Among the objects of the association, as proposed by its projectors, are "the promotion of the highest standards of practice." "The dissemination of information on all subjects pertaining to the profession" "For protection against all unfair legislation now being introduced in various states which lend, if adopted, to limit and cripple the practice of beauty culture among our group of beauty cultureists." Quick action is deemed urgent and necessary and this contingency has prompted the chief spirits in the organization of the National Association of Beauty Culturist to take immediate steps to warn the public and business elements of the danger that confronts them through the efforts of the "trust" to saddle on a group of progressive business people a genuine piece of pernicious class legislation. The holding of a national convention is among the immediate probabilities. Petitions signed by those engaged in all lines of business endeavor, to be presented to all the state legislatures, and such other steps that will be found necessary to adopt, constitutes the present program of the organization. The Illinois legislature will be the first to be petitioned in behalf of the rate's business interests in that state. To the end that an active and effective plan of co-operation may be commensal at the earliest possible moment, The National Association of Beauty Culturel-Is has opened permanent headquarters at 2301 Washington Avenue, where all communications relating to the formation of a fighting protective organization can be sent. A local branch of this association was organized in this city, and it behooves every hair'dresser to join-it in order to fight for their existence. K. of P. Celebrate At Millen, Ga.

G. Thomas is still sojourning in Hot Springs, Ark., where he went some weeks ago for rest. Oscar Baxley, a well known chauffeur, was seriously injured a few days ago. While working on his car another car was backed into his, breaking his collar bone. He is doing well at this writing. As the officers of Jasper county, in their vigilance are nearthing more crimes against J. S. Williams and his sons who have eluded them, interest is still increasing in the case in both Newton and Jasper counties, where the crimes were committed. A more deliberate plot to destroy evidence against the farmer, who, from the evidence thus far brought out had his farm hands practically in handage, could have been evolved by the derail in hell. The Spanish inquisition certainly could not have been worse and no slave holder prior to freedom would have been so barbarous, nor permitted an overseer to have destroyed so many human beings. OLDEST PERSON IN NEWTON COUNTY DEAD Covington, Ga., April 13th (Associated Negro Press)—100 years old Aunt Patsy Livingston, the oldest person in Newton County is dead. Aunt Patsy died at the home of one of her sons in Newton last Monday afternoon. She was one of the widest known Negroes in this section of Georgia and was highly respected by all classes of the people here. APPROPRIATION MADE FOR WORK AMONG NEGROES ASSESSANT, N. C., April 13th (Associated Negro Press)—One of the last acts of legislation adopted by the State Legislature before its adjournment last week was the appropriation of $10,000 for school building, $105,000 for maintenance aid $15,000 for teacher training for educational work among the Negro population in the State. BENEFIT WILL BE GIVEN FOR UNEMPLOYED NEGROES Chicago, Ill., April 13th (Associated Negro Press)—Reports that have gone out to the press throughout the country are decidedly misleading in the statement that an abnormal number of the colored people who have come into the North looking for work have been grossly deceived. What is true is that a considerable number of industrial workers have been compelled to how to the labor depression brought about by the needs and complications of readjustment. This situation, however, included whites as well as the colored people engaged in industrial pursuits. For the colored unemployed a colored citizens' committee, Asi successfully solving the problem by a monster benefit, to be given in the 8th Regiment Armory on the night of the 18th of April. The citizens at large are responding cheerfully to the call of the committee. Even the leading female members of the famed Lafayette Players are actively engaged in the ticket-selling campaign now well under way. Laura Bowman, Susie Sutton, Ida Anderson and Alice Gorgas come out among the audiences which gather nightly at the Avenue Theatre during the intermissions between the acts and sell tickets for the benefit. The benefit promises to be a big success. William A. Buckner, former trainee for the "White Sox" American Baseball team, Claude A. Barnett and the Chicago Defender are among the managers of the benefit. The entire proceeds are to be used in the purchase and distribution of food among the newly unemployed Negro workmen throughout the city. "EMPEROR JONES" RENDERED BY HOWARD PLAYERS Washington, D. C., April 13th (Associated Negro Press)—The rendition of the "Emperor Jones" by the Howe and University Players with Charles S. Gilpin in the title role and Jasper Deeter in the trader's role, both of the Provincetown Players of New York City, proved a rare treat, to the large colored and white audience that packed the Belasco Theatre, Washington, D. C., on Easter Monday morning, March 28th. An interesting feature of the performance was the gift to Mr. Gilpin of a silver loving cup presented on behalf of the Howard Players by Mr. George Brown, business manager of the Dramatic Association. Mr. Gilpin paid a fine tribute to the work accomplished by the Howard Players.

Among those who attended the performance were: Dr. J. Stanley Durkee President of the Howard University; Dr. Emmett J. Scott, Secretary-Treasurer, and Mrs. Scott; His Excellency, Charles Bradley Dunkar King, President of the Republic of Liberia; Hon. F. E. R. Johnston of the Liberian Supreme Court; Hon.

House of Representatives, and Mrs. Longworth, who is well remembered as Miss Alice Roosevelt, daughter of the former President of the United States, and party of friends; and Mrs. Sinclair Lewis, wife of the author of "Main Street." DR. MOTON ADDRESS TEACHERS ASSOCIATION Montgomery, Ala., April 13th (Associated Negro Press) At the recent meeting of th Alabama Teachers' Association, which was held in this city, one of the sessions was devoted to discussions on race relations by white and colored citizens. The principal speaker on this occasion was Dr. R. R. Moton Principal of Tuskegee Institute. Dr. Moton spoke with the utmost frankness on this subject, plainly and forcibly and was applauded frequently by the members of both races. He referred to the necessity of frankness and confidence on the part of each race in the solution of the race problem and set forth the conditions which to his mind caused the most friction, at the same time explaining some of the things that were in the "back of the heads of the Negroes." Among other things, Dr. Moton said: "I know one of the chief reasons why Negroes are not always as frank in discussing matters of discrimination and injustice, with white people as they might be. They are afraid that these people will immediately jump to the conclusion that they are arguing for 'social equality' which is the most misused and confused expression in all discussions of race relations. Let me say with all emphasis possible, that not one Negro in ten thousand ever raised the question of 'social equality.' What they want is equal protection, equal civil rights, equal opportunity, and equal educational facilities. Negroes do not object to legal segregation because they want to be with white people, but because it places upon them and their children by law a badge of inferiority which carries with it inferior treatment and opportunities. In asking for the change of these conditions and the things to which I have referred, he is not only asking for any special privilege, for if democracy means anything at all it means equal opportunity, protection and rights for every citizen. And I am glad to say that there is a large group, which is rapidly increasing in number, of the best white people of the South who working together that the Negro might be accorded his rights, and live in peace and security and may thereby be enabled to contribute their fullest share towards the highest development of the South." TO BREAK INTO OFFICE Memphis, Tenn., April 13th (Associated Negro Press)—An unidentified Negro about 25 years of age was shot and killed at about 12:30 last Monday morning while attempting to break into the office of the Connecticut Pie Company, 100 South Fourth street, by Will Dagle, the night watchman. The contents of a double-barreled shotgun was emptied into the Negro's stomach. He died in the patrol wagon while on the way to the General Hospital at 1:45 a. m. Mr. Eagle said that a Negro had been trying to burglarize the office for the last three or four nights, but that each time the attempts were made the burglar became frightened and fled.

MEMBER OF END ASSOCIATED MILITARY PRIZE FIRST IN SERVICE FIFTY YEARS OF SERVICE FOR OTHERS "Behold an Israelite judged, in whom there is no guilt!" If the advancement of his people in education and the development of manhood character among the thousands of boys and girls who came under his influence make up the standard by which the life-work of a man is judged, James H. C. Butler lived more "abundantly" and more efficiently than any man we know. The vast majority of the leading men and women of this section of Georgia, and of the adjourning states, and many others who through the years have scattered to the uttermost parts of the country, owe the success they attained in large measure to the fundamental principles of righteous conduct and proper living instilled in them at the West Broad street school, to the upbuilding of which Prof. Butler dedicated his splendid powers of mind and heart. West Broad was among the first schools to be opened to colored children and from it has sprung many other schools, as well as most of the teachers who did the pioneer work of education among our people in Savannah and in this section of the state. Like the mighty oak, rooted firmly against the storm of early obstacle and difficulty, when education among colored people was young and in its experimental stage, West Broad street school shouldered the burden of demonstrating that education was also a good thing for Negroes and a deserving investment for public funds at a time when Negro education as a public policy was debatable. And like the mighty oak that scatters and spreads its benign influence throughout the forest, through its acorns and shoots, this school early began to send out those it had helped that they might carry its good offices and aid to others. And still like the sturdy oak, the school good fast through the years to shelter and protect in the shade of its influence and power those who remained within its range of usefulness. It still stands, its leaves still green, its roots as strong, its shade as kindly, an eloquent testimonial to the vision and faith, in his people and himself, of James H. C. Butler, and a splendid monument to his memory, and to his gentle powers and to his great faith in the educated youth of his race and generation. And what greater achievement could man win? What larger service of love and labor for the lowly, masses in the Master's vineyard where there was and still is so much to be done, could there be than the consciousness of having bettered, touched for good, stimulated, put in the right path, with stronger faith and equipment for the race of life, so many thousands of the young, of a younger race? And how could one die happier than when he looked here and younder and everywhere around and about him and could see the glowing examples of his handiwork, of his striving and his labors, the accomplishment of his ideal, the advancement of his people, in spirit and power and enterprise? This was Professor Butler's privilege. If a man could come willingly to his death, in the supreme confidence of having lived "abundantly" and well, in the strong conviction that his life work had been acceptable to those who would judge of it, and in the myriad joys and emotions which spring from the constant approval of those who loved, and not only loved, but who showed that rare appreciation not expressed by words, but by putting faithfully into execution the precepts and examples they had been taught, it must have been the rare lot of Professor Butler. For his thousands of children, and children's children, loved him: and they loved in a way his gentle, retiring, modest nature appreciated: not in the show of words or flowers, but by living themselves their own careers, even as he had lived his. He did not love the showy, the garish, the sham. He admired the higher qualities of certain conviction. and frankness in men. He was always one and the same, charitable in his estimates of men, even-ballasted and moved only by well thought observation and study. His experience was rich in the history and lore of the people, and his companionship particularly satisfying and edifying. He loved the little children, their prattle and their play. He loved the higher literatures and the arts. He loved the labor of the grown-ups and sympathized with their trials. He loved the church and the songs of the Saluts. His heart was big, and strong and pulsed with feeling over the larger problems which we all must face; and his interests always lay along the line of the more enduring things of life. His was a life, not traversing the line of least resistance, but carefully and singularly mapped out and planned, in certain line to certain purpose, unvarying and unpimped, toward the achievement of a great aim. His was a life, not built with the mongrel fragments of accidental efforts and success, but builted like a great temple with best selected stones from the world's storehouse, materials approved by good men, and a workmanship which guaranteed the test of the ages. He lives in the lives and examples of our best citizens; he is seen in their achievements and their works; he is reflected in those whose lives exhibit a deep devotion to truth and duty, a firm and abiding faith in our people, and a conviction that justice and right and good will must eventually prevail on earth amongst men. We are bowed in grief; our souls are exceeding sorrowful; we have brought-him flowers, and whispered our deep affection, but none of it satisfies. We would be, like him, of abounding faith, with a heart big and strong, giving of his rich life to help others. N. A. A. C. P. MEMBERSHIP DRIVE The 1921 drive for membership which the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People will make between April 24th and May 8th, next should meet with the heartiest response from every law-abiding and self-respecting citizen in Savannah. The only sufficient reason why anyone would not pay over his subscription for membership to some one of the score of canvassers who will make the appeal would be that he does not love his race and does not desire to enjoy the justice and equality before the law which is guaranteed by the Constitution of the United States. The National Association, broadly speaking, is committed to just these two things: To advance the best interest of the Negro race, and to secure the full enforcement of the rights of the race. It is fighting for the free exercise of the ballet by Negro men and women. It is fighting for full education for Negro children. It is fighting for equality before the law. It is fighting for a man's chance for every Negro in every line. Then, how can you resist it? What reason can you give your wife, your child, yourself, if you do not join and help the cause along? Come on in, and help make the fight. Let's go over the 1,000 members, which Savannah is expected to enroll. Atlanta already has 4,000 members, and its quota for the drive is 10,000. Can Savannah afford to be left behind? The answer is in your hands. ALLEGES HER HUSBAND THREATENED TO KILL HER Because She Tried to Throw Away A Toe and Piece of Skin from A Negro's Foot Alleging that her husband, Nollie Belk, threatened to kill her because she tried to throw away a toe and piece of skin from a Negro's foot which he had been keeping, Mrs. Dahila Belk filled suit for divorce against Mr. Belk Thursday in the superior court. AS DELEGATE TO CONFERENCE Washington, D.C., April 13th (Associated Negro Press)—Dr. Damnell J. Scott, Secretary-Treasurer of Howard University, has been selected as one of the delegates of the Methodist Episcopal church to the Ecumenical Conference to be held in London, England, September 6th to 16th, 1921 Quite a number of the delegates to the Conference are planning to make tours of Europe following the close of their official program. DECISION AGAINST RAILROAD UPHIELD BY CHIEF JUSTICE Washington, D.

The students' action was determined when they concluded in a public meeting that the faculty was unduly severe in the terms of the punishment meted out to the aforesaid senior. Insubordination was the charge lodged against the accused by the faculty. REPUBLICAN LEAGUE WOMEN VOTERS HOLDS MEETING The Chatham County Republican League of Women Voters met in their regular monthly session at Carnegie Library April & Reports from the membership campaign and the registration campaign were encouraging and promises to go over the top by the next regular meeting which will be held the second Friday in May. The women are fast becoming awake to the sense of the great duty that is upon them and much good is being accomplished. A recent statement in the Sarannah Press says that the county registrars have purged the list of registered voters and that 150 colored women's names have been dropped from the list. The league is mix-ups to get in touch with these parties and any other who do not read and write in order that they may be taught to do so in a few weeks at a small cost. The league started an illiteracy campaign in 1919-1920 which resulted in much good there being several hundred men and women taught; there are few schools open at present and more will be opened where ten or more pupils can be had. Those desiring to be taught can see any one of the educational committee of the league, namely, Miss Sarah Lee, phone 2074; Miss Genera Stiles, phone 6075; Mrs. M. L. Ayers, phone 4630; or the chairman of the league, Mrs. Pearl Smith, phone 1430. The league also is making arrangements for a mock election which is its second one for the specific instruction for both male and female voters. Atlanta University Cancels Her Debt The alumni and former students of Atlanta University have been very helpful in wiping out entirely the debt. For this the university is mainly indebted to the Drew legacy, but the assistance of graduates has also been of material value. Now they are assisting to raise $10,000 this year, so as to get an additional $10,000 to be used for repairs. The university considers herself fortunate in having such a loyal body of graduates and former students who have sent their gifts from all parts of the United States and some from Canada. The repair fund needs about $2,000 more to be completed. Although the time is short it is confidently expected that those who have not given, will give before the time is out. These givers have well exemplified the motto of their alma mater, "I'll find a way or make one." DIRECTOR OF CENSUS Washington, D. C., April 15th (Associated Negro Press)—The Director of the Census has issued a preliminary statement showing the composition of the population of Georgia according to sex, color or race, and nativity, as shown by the census taken as of January 1st, 1920.

The first scheduled Sunday excursion to this popular resort left the city at 2 o'clock with about 550 pleasure seekers about the steamer Merchant. Though the weather was a little cold and windy the patrons had a pleasant trip and the occasion was much enjoyed. The indica. tions are, that this will be a successful season for the promoters, and it is expected that large crowds will go down to the beach every Sunday and enjoy a few hours in the surf. The management has announced that there will be no dancing, but for the enjoyment of those that attend these outings, there will be band concerts on the boat and pavilion, the music will be furnished by the Apollo Orchestra, of which W.

Moore, Boston's, noted beauty cultureist, who is touring the South teaching her method of beauty culture, lectured and showed her pictures of beauty culture at St. Philip Memorial church, St Phillip A.M. E church and at Rev. Wright's church to large and appreciative audiences. Mrs. Moore has a large following where ever she goes. Her genial disposition has won for her many friends in the business and social world. Mrs. Moore who has found a strong welcome here says that if one needs inspiration one only has to walk up West Broad street into any of the colored establishments and if they are not inspired something is wrong. Mrs. Moore is stopping at the residence of Mrs. Willie Hill, 811 W. 57th street. EXHIBITION OF PHYSICAL CULTURE The exhibition in physical culture to be given by the primary department of the East Broad street school bids fair to be a novel entertainment to all who will be fortunate enough to get into the hall. While the exhibition is given to create a larger interest in physical training, it is hoped that enough money will be realized from the sale of tickets to enable the school to purchase a school victrola. It will be interesting to East Broad graduates and friends to learn that we have accepted the offer of the board of education by means of which we shall get the visual instruction material for use in schools. We will appreciate any assistance the graduates of the school feel disposed to give. R. W.

MEETING MEMORIAL HOSPITAL Tuskegee, Ala., April 15th (Associated Negro Press)—The Tenth Annual Clinic of the John A. Andrew Clinical Society will be held in the John A.

C., April 13th (Associated Negro Press)—Congress is again in action. Washington is a beehive of activity. Here are gathered interests from every point of the compass to press claims for legislation. President Harding has delivered a notable message to Congress upon which they have a basis for constructive action. Congress will back up the President's proposals, and the world moves on. There is no more interesting or militant activity in any field than that which centers about the demands of colored Americans. There are certain well defined, outstanding features connected with the present Situation. Looking at them briefly, they are: 1 A sympathetic Administration 2 A Congress of marked friendly tendencies. 3 A well organized program backed up on the ground by remarkable leadership. 4 An awakened national conscienceness among the people who are watching with eagle eyes every move. What are the results of these conditions? The Administration, which has started strong with the humanizing tendencies will insist on fair play. This will be done with thoughts of 1922 and 1924 as well as for other reasons. That is a human side; also, plans are being laid by Democrats, Socialists, Committee of 48, Independents and others to "throw over the republicans." Republican Congressmen and Senators who come up next year are not going to "double-cross colored Americans." If they do, they are doomed, according to their own testimony. The demands of civilization, as they concern our groups are many but there are chief ones that all are concentrating on. There will be no "scattering of power," in pushing these things 1 Layning These conditions will be fought in Congress by viable Senators and Representatives. "The time has come," said one Congressman to the Associated Negro Press, "when we must have a showdown on whether colored people are American citizens." That is just what the people wish to know. Being citizens there are certain things that the government must do. Phil H. Brown, of Hopkinson, Ky., has been appointed by Secretary Davall of the Department of Labor, as Commissioner of Occupation. Mr. Brown has been sworn in and is functioning at the Labor building. "The Department of Negro Economies," which was established under the Wilson administration, has been abolished. The Director of this department was Dr. George E. Harnes. Mr. Brown has been active in polities for a number of years, having been in charge of the publicity for Negro publications for four campaigns in the Republican National Committee Mr. Brown is a pioneer newspaper man. Inasmuch as such a large number of the race are affected by labor conditions, Mr. Brown hopes to do very effective work in his department. The position is said to pay $4,100 per year.

HENRY STREET SoftDrinks and Con- our patronage invited RANCIS Props INTERESTING NEWS FOR FARMER ARE MAKING PROGRESS Hampton, Va., April 13th—Thint Negro farmers of Virginia are working systematically to improve their land, grow larger food crops, build more attractive homes, and encourage their boys and girls to go to school was clearly shown in reports which were recently made to John B. Pierce special agent of the States Relations Service, at the Hampton Institute meeting of the Virginia colored district agents, Lizzle A. Jenkins, Grifton E. Oliver, John L. Charity, and Julian E. Bagley, who are successfully developing state-wide extension work among colored farmers and their families. Some signs of progress in Virginia follow: Of three boards of supervisors that had failed to appropriate money for the work of colored county agents, two were finally induced to make appropriations. Three county advisory boards have already selected delegates for the Hampton Farmers' Conference, which will be held on June 29 and 30. Other boards are planning to select delegates. One district agent, reports that, in nine counties, 753 demonstrations in important crop projects will be carried on. In addition, 796 colored boys will take part in club work. Six counties were visited with a view to securing local aid to finance the employment of a year-round home demonstration agent. In one county the board of supervillors made the appropriation that had been requested. In four other counties the colored citizens supplied the necessary money. Another district agent reported that 207 colored boys in six counties had enrolled in club work. In the same NIME etao sird elao vimfur territory 287 demonstrations will be conducted by colored farmers. Another section, including three counties, has enrolled 187 colored boys in club work. There the farmers, in addition to carrying on many demonstrations in corn, wheat, oats, cowpeas, alfalfa, potatoes, and other valuable crops, are learning how to raise poultry for profit. POULTRY WORK OF WHITE BLUFF HOME DEM WORKERS At the regular monthly meeting held at the home of Mrs. Lizzle George on Tuesday April 12, the different club women gave their report in poultry.

"Grace and I are crocheting, and have made a piece of lace. I am going to bring it to our next-meeting, where you can see it." AGRICULTURAL AGENTS At a conference at Southern Division Headquarters, American Red Cross April 8th, with Mr. T. M. Campbell and Mr. B. A. Williams. Mr. Logan suggested that the colored county agents and home demonstration workers should be informed of the local character and work of Red Cross Chapters, should be made to understand that these chapters while apart of a national and international organization, are locally autonomous with respect to local service including the conduct of classes in food selection, home hygiene and care of the sick, and in the maintenance of public health nurses and of social workers, that county agents and home demonstration workers should get in touch with local officers of the Red Cross Chapter with a view to securing the benefits for colored people Red Cross service in whatever for it may be maintained locally. The attitude of the division staff of the red cross was to encourage the extension of the local chapter service for the benefits of colored people as far as practicable. Mr. Logan on the other hand, asked the colored county agents and home demonstration workers be encouraged by their superiors to look upon the local Red Cross Chapter as an active potential medium for the development of health and social services within their communities. There fore, colored county agents and home demonstration workers should do their part in getting the colored people to join their local Red Cross Chapter in order to have a source in this chapter for service of their people.

Miss Daniel is making pictures of the out-door demonstrations to the great delight of the girls, and they make a great effort to be present. If they know the noun has her locak. These pictures are very interesting to the girls of the different club who get from them an idea of what other club girls are doing. BIBB COUNTY DEAL WORKERS OBSERVE HEALTH WEEK This is the first year that the home demonstration work has been conducted in Bibb County, and Mrs. Nellie M. Bunn is making great success.

Colfax, La., April, 13th (Associated Negro Press)—John Tinglis, aged 50 a well-known merchant of Colfax, was found dead in the rear of his store about noon today, a load of buckshot having entered the right side of his head. His tongue and teeth were torn out by the shot, which was fired at close range. The body was discovered by a woman who was employed by the merchant to clean up his premises. When found it was in a kneeling position near a rear window of the store. A number of tracks were found in the rear of the store, and the local officers are carefully guarding these pending the arrival of bloodhounds from Mississippi when it is hoped by local officials the dogs will be able to pick up the trail of the murderer. No suspicion attaches to any one, officers say, and unless the bloodhounds are able to lead them to some clue, the death of the merchant may remain a mystery. CLEAN HERDS POSSIBLE Hampton, Va., April 13th—That tuberculosis can be eradicated from dairy herds is the experience of Hampon Institute. Dr. George C. Faville who is the Institute veterinarian, has just completed the annual test of the Hampton Institute herds for tuberculosis and has found*them absolutely free. "It is rather unusual, says Warren K. Bloedgett, director of the Hampton Institute Agricultural School, "for any dairy farm voluntarily to have a herd tested annually, because the testing is so expensive. We are very fortunate in having a skilled veterinarian who can do this work for us. It is a great credit to have a herd from which all tuberculosis has been eradicated, because several years ago, when we began testing the herds, we would find several animals each year that had to be killed. This should be of interest to farmers who have dairy herds." UHERO COLA BOTTLING Lynchburg, Va., April 13th (Associated Negro Press—Negro business men of this city have organized the Chero Coll. Bottling Company and have incorporated for $50,000. S. H. Lewis is the president of the company and O. F. Colman is the secretary. The company, which will manufacture soft drinks products, is the first of its kind organized in this section of Virginia. PRESIDENT REQUEST Washington, D. C. April 13th (Associated Negro Press)—President Hurd recently asked his special commission, headed by Charles G. Dawes of Chicago, to make "diligent inquiry of government department heads in an effort to find out just where the government agencies have been "locking in authority, neglectful or falling" in caring for disabled service men. He asked that investigation be made of "the abuses which have developed." The President's request was in the form of a statement, which was read at the first meeting of the Commission by Mr. Dawes, who called on the President at the White House. The commission chairman announced that the President's wishes would be carried out to the letter and that the inquiry would not be directed into controversial or extended subjects.

The principle acting the true Freemason of whatever color or country is based on truth, and by a co-operation between all the various Masonic organizations working in harmony and with a determination to make uniform and universal the purposes and principles of the craft, a power for good could be created which would prove of incalculable benefit to the whole human race. Many of the ism andologies of today, various in their purpose and describably destructive in their acts, are, through an improper appreciation of the divine attribute, but the result of well-meaning but mis-guided men and women, working wholly in the dark. A league of Masons could be made the means of combatting some of the irresponsible and illogical arguments of mis-guided political experimenters; be they bol-herist or what you will. In the present condition of world affairs Masony has a responsible part to play; we cannot be passive; our organization standing squarely as it does on the broad foundation of truth a divine, attribute and the foundation of every virtue, is in a powerful position to affect this much desired purpose. We cannot, if we would avoid our responsibilities; they are with us whether we recognize them or not. Can we embrace our opportunities, for we owe it to ourselves and the generations to come to openly advocate a closer union among Masons every where for the betterment of social conditions, not only in our country, but all over the world.—New England Craftsman.
