VOL. XXXVII MUCH GOOD TO WILL. FOLLOW. INVESTIGATION McCormick's. Manner s Were Pleasing To The Hatians. Washington, D. C., Jan. 17th (Associated Negro Press)—Word is coming to Washington of the good impression made in Haiti by the senatorial committee, headed by Senator McCormick of Illinois, which recently spent several weeks in that island republic investigating conditions incident to the American occupation. When the committee went down there was some misgiving as to the character of its reception. This was dissipated on the first day and the friendliest sort of relation ship was established. Senator McCormick, as Chairman, made a particularly favorable impression, according to Ernest G. Chauvet, Editor of the Le Nonvolliste, published at Port Au Prince. In writing of the Senator's work in his paper, Mr. Chauvet said: "Senator McCormick. President of the Senatorial Commission is "from head to foot" a man of engaging sympathy. Meticulous, giving the greatest importance to the least details, he begins by correcting an error in the French translation of the Committee's communication published by the newspapers. This gives a good impression. One feels that he is a man who does not like to see an injustice done by a small error that might be highly detrimental to the witnesses as being perjury. He goes so far as to insist, even when the Learning's over, on a re-ification re-producing the exact text of the communication. He is truly a great man, since he understands the real value and importance of details. Senator McCormick speaks French easily and correctly. Sometimes, Senator McCormick, always meticulous, even scrupulous will correct the interpreters when their translations appear to be inexact. "Near fifty, Senator McCormick gives an impression of vigorous freshness. Tall, rather straight, watchful, he presides with competence, precision and authority. His voice is deep, his smooth face expresses a marital energy very Roman. His eyes are strong and his look is direct and frank. Nothing around him escapes his attention. One feeds a sharpness of view as of a camera. His gestures are quiet and his manner polite. "In short! A Strong Man!" FRENCH GENERAL PRAISES THE NEGRO TROOPS FRENCH GENERAL PRAISES THE NEGRO TROOPS Says The Treatment By Whites Not At All Flattering. Paris, France, Jan. 17th (Associated Negro Press)—"An end must be put to this absurd legend of the inferiority of the black race. It is based solely on the tradition of slavery and is not at all flattering to the white races." So declares Gen. Mangin, whose utterance 1st he most authoritative of those who have taken up advocacy of the cause of the blacks, following the winning of the Goncourt literary prize by the Martinique writer, Rene Maran. Mangin is the great champion of the black army theory, holding that only by training and arming her colonial subjects can France redress the balance in face of more populous Germany. Their fighting value, he proved in the war, for "Manger" Mangin's colonial army was always in the thick of the French offensives. The general gained his affection for the colored races during the 20 years he spent in colonial military and administrative commands. He is not merely a soldier, but has considerable competence in literary talent, which gives weight to his remarks on culture among the Negro races. "There really is an intellectual elite among the blacks, whom liberty has introduced to our culture", he asserted in an interview. "And experience has demonstrated that this elite possesses the ability to excel in every domain of human activity." The Savannah Tribune. Church Has Opportunity and Responsibility For Better Relations. Chicago Ill., Jan, 5—At the recent annual meeting of the Federal Council of American Churches, which convened here on December 14th, one of the most important questions raised was that of interracial relations. The presentation of the subject was in itself a concrete embodiment of the Christian ideal. On the same platform were heard four leaders from the heart of the South, two white and two black, seeing the question of race relations from a Christian and common point of view. "We never knew," said Rev. W. W. Alexander and John J. Eagan, of Atlanta, "how much racial prejudice and friction were due to lack of understanding of the Negro peole, until we began to work with Bishop Robert E. Jones and a few other Negro leaders in the South. Nor did we ever realize before how much the Negro race has to contribute to the richness of our national life." "We newer know," replied Bishop Robert E. Jones of New Orleans, the first Negro to become a bishop in full standing in the Methodist Episcopal Church, and Bishop George C. Clement, of Louisville of the Afflemm M. E. Zlon church, "that there were in the whole world any white men so fair, so just so courteous, so devoted to true democracy, as we found certain white leaders to be when once we began to work with them." "And Mrs. Luke Johnson, of Griffin Ga., a member of one of the old aristocratic families of the South, voiced with deep feeling the Christians demand for justice for Negro women. All the speakers, black and white, agreed that the Christian church the possessor of the Gospel of human brotherhood, has the supreme opportunity and responsibility for bringing about justice and better feeling in race relations. Said one white speaker: "The churches must unitedly undertake to combat race prejudice in America. They must see to it that race distinctions do not become race discriminations. A man must be judged by his character and his usefulness, not by race. The churches can so give to the nation the real facts regarding the racial situation that misunderstanding and prejudice will largely disappear. Many intelligent people throughout the nation believe that lynching is for one crime only, and so condone this great national sin. But figures for the last ten years will show that less than one third of the lynchings were for this crime. "No man can make me hate him," declared Bishop Robert E. Jones in a heart, now that I have discovered that heart, not that I have discovered that there are white men who are working as hard as I to secure justice for the Negro and that the church is beginning to uwake to its responsibility." A practical program of concrete activities for the churches was proposed and it was urged that all the churches, colored and white, unite in promoting conferences for better understanding, in helping to form local inter-racial committees to work for racial justice and good will, and in a campaign of education concerning the Christian solution of the race problem. PLANS-FOR REBUILDING SHORTER HALL PLANS-FOR REBUILDING SHORTER HALL Hundreds Turned Away Because Of Lack Of Accommodation. Wilberforce, Ohio., Jan 15—At a meeting of the executive board of Wilberforce University, called by Bishop J. H.

He acted strangely, she said, for several days, although he did not intimate he would end his life. Mr. Wheaton was active in politics in Harlem, and an acknowledged leader of his race. He was known to have looked with disfavor upon the plans of the colonization of Africa by Marcus Garvey, and also acted as Mrs. Garvey's counsel in her separation suit.

Hampton, Va., Jan. 11—Dr. Anson Phelps-Stokes of Lees, Mars. former secretary of Yale University and present secretary of the Phelps-Stokes Fund for educational work among Negroes, Indians and whites, according to an announcement made by Dr. James D.

It is also rumored that there will be a number of other arrests of Black Star officials and of men prominent in the affairs of the U. N. I. A., both in its allied corporations, newspaper and the Universal Negro Improvement Association proper. One charge that will most likely be developed against certain members of the staff of "The Negro World" will be for attempting through inciting articles to inflame the ignorant minds of the more fanatic of their followers to the end of bringing about the assassination of prominent men opposed to the Garvey plan of liberating Africa by hotair oratory and questionable schemes.

Hopkins Among Howard's Leaders Savannahians will be pleased to learn of the excellent work being done by one of the local boys at Howard University, Washington, D. C. The young man in question is T. J. Hopkinson of Mr. and Mrs. T. J. Hopkins of Gwinnett street, east. The Howard University Journal, in whose columns of January 19th appears Mr. Hopkins cut, says the following of his work at the university: "Undoubtedly one of the most energetic student workers in the University is T. J. Hopkins. As a member of the staff of Howard Players, he performs the double duty of business manager and technical director, both of which offices require acumen and call for a sacrifice of time. "Professor Gregory says that "he has made himself indispensable in the movement for a Negro theatre. Thus it is seen that Mr. Hopkins is doing work, not only of value to the University, but to the drama world and to the race. It was he who constructed the magnificent proscenium in the chapel. Mr. Hopkins deserves the unstinted praise of all." ERS. are the papers of more than six (6) paper continued, next Tuesday. ANTI LYNCHING BEING PRESSED FOR. PASSAGE Negro Leaders Pushing Enactment By Congress. Washington, D. C., Jan. 17th (Associated Negro Press)—It is a hopeful sign for the race to see practically all Negro leaders throughout the country actively agen raiddegeinspeg tEtet actively engaged in pressing for the immediate enactment by Congress of an effective anti-Lynching bill and for other much needed legislation that will safeguard the constitutional rights of colored Americans. Valuable work along this line has been, and is being done by the Committee on Legislative Relief which, during the past year, has been maintaining race headquarters at 1210 Pennsylvania Ave. N. W. Washington, D. C., and which, to a gratifying degree, has helped to favorably influence Senators, Congressmen and Republican leaders not only as regards the passage of a real anti-brushing bill "with teeth in it" but have been diligently urging the present administration to redemote campaign promises and the pledges of the Republican party platform, as well as giving fitting recognition to competent and loyal Republicans, members of our racial group, by way of appointment to federal offices such as Register of the Treasury, Minister to Hail, Recorder of Doors in the District of Columbia and similar positions which, under previous Republican administrations, colored men have filled with signal credit to themselves and to their race. The Committee on Legislative Relief is still "on the job" at Washington, contending for the full protection of their race under the law and asking for an "open door" and a "square deal" in the distribution of Federal patronage, in the unseifish fight they are making for the benefit of the entire race this Committee, ally headed by Hon Robert R. Church, of Memphis, deserve the active and unqualified support of the Negro Press and people throughout America. Associated with Mr. Church in this work are the following: Hon. Henry Lincoln Johnson, of Atlanta, the only Negro member of the Republican National Committee; Hon. William C. Matthews, Attorney at Law, Boston, Mass.; Hon. Perry W. Howard, of Jackson, Miss, Special Assist. Attorney General of the United States; Dr. J. K. Crossland, Special Assist. in the Veterans Bureau; Dr. W. S. Scarborough, Assist. Economist in Department of Agriculture; Editor Nahum D. Brascher and Melvin J. Chisum of the Associated Negro Press; President J. Finley Wilson of the National Negro Press Association; Editor Robert J. Nelson of Wilmington, Delaware; Editor Robert S. Abbott of the Chicago Defender, and a number of other men throughout the country whose names are synonymous with "genuine" in racial uplift. The Dyer anti-Nyanching bill is now up before Congress for discussion and will continue to hold first place on the Houo calendar until a vote thereon shall be obtained. SOUTHERN WHITE PAPERS. FOR DYER. BILL Are Lending Support In Favor Of An Early Passage. New York, N. Y. Jan. 15th. The National Association for the Advancement of Colorful Press is announced that a number of important white newspapers in southern states were lending their editorial support to the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, H R. 13. The Florida Times-Union of January 6, says: "We regret very much to see Southerners opposing the Anti-Lynching bill now before Congress. We are as great a stilcher for state rights as any of them but surely no one will claim that it is the right of a state to permit murder. We would not have the federal government take charge of the (Continued on Page Elight) Democrats Reward Morton For His Campaign Work. New York, N. Y., Jan 17th (Associated Negro Press)—The biggest appointment of an able colored citizen that has ever been made by a New York Mayor was that of Ferdinand Q. Morton to be a civil service commissioner of New York City. The appointment was a partial recognition of the tremendous black vote which Mr. Morton as chief of the United Colored Democracy had led into Tammany Hall at the last election and secondly a deserved recognition of one of the most able and popular Democrats regardless of race in New York City. The appointment of Morton was to the place on the commission of the three guardians of the civil service held by Commissioner Killilea. The commission now consist of Commissioner Kaplan, Morton and Drennan, the last named a Republican. His appointment means a great step forward for the colored citizens in New York and a larger place for them in the city employee. It is generally believed that Morton would have been named a magistrate to succeed Judge Mancuso but the alternative was given him after another was named as the commission portfollo. Mr. Morton was born in Mississippi in 1882 and moved with his family at an early age to Washington where he attended and graduated from the public high schools. He entered Harvard College, after graduation and later finished Boston University Law School. He came to New York and entered actively in the practice of law and plunged into politics. His rise has been meteoric and deserved. It is not known as to who will be given Mr. Morton's place in the District Attorney's office, but it is rumored that Attorney James McClendon will be given one of the deputy assistants. 'Alderman George W. Harris' who was given his certificate and sworn in for his second term weeks ago has taken his seat in the front rank of Republicans at the Aldermanic Chamber. He was the recipient of many congratulations. NEGRO INVENTS SUCCESSFUL RAT TRAP Expects To Make Thousands Out of Recent Invention. New York, N. Y., Jan. 17th (Associated Negro Press)—Allen Dixon, a Negro, fifty seven years old, who drives the elevator in an apartment store in Nashville, Tenn., seems to be in a fair way to change his vehicle from a motor car and perhaps a chauffeur as a result of a little imagination. To most persons bailing wire is simply wire but to Dixon, looking at all the rusty wire, going to waste from hales of hay shipped into Nashville, rusty wire was rat traps. He pulled some wire off a hale, experimented with it—and got a patent. Hart and Hart are negotiating for permission to sell the patent right.Mr. Hart, idults that Dixon will probably make a lot of money. He is said to have received already an offer of $25,000 in cash, or $5,000 down and 5 cents royalty on every trap sold. Dixon said he patented his trap last July. Just to show how much rats liked it, he said, he entered two in a competition at he Commercial Club in Nashville, and in one night caught twenty-six rats in the big one and fifteen in the small one. Only one other trap entered caught any rats, and that got only one. Dixon said he had other inventions that ought to pay him better than this one. He did not know whether he would keep his job after he got his money but he would have to do something for he had worked too long to be able to quit. IN HIS HOLY TEMMPLE ST.

CHURCH CONFERENCE The annual conference of the First African baptist church held on last Monday evening clearly evidenced to its pastor and board of officers, that the membership was well satisfied with their stewardship, and the accomplishments of the church during the past year. A unanimous rising vote of confidence was voted them at the conclusion of the reading of the finance report for the year. The report showed that $10,757.31 was raised by the church and its auxiliaries dur- ing the year. All of its obligations were well taken care of, and only several small outstanding bills were carried forward. All of its property holdings are free of incumberences. It contributed very liberally to civic and charitable appeals during the year. Its contribution to the state denomination work took first place at the convention held at Macon, Ga., in November. The pastor was elected State Vice President of the convention, succeeding the late Dr. C. T. Walker of Augusta, Ga., and appointed to other important state work in the denomination. The church reported the death of a number of its most faithful members of long standing, also the addition to its large membership, of many who joined by letter, and watch care, from other cities and towns. As a mark of appreciation of service, the church voted to retire its aged sexton, Mr. Frank Green, who has served them about 20 years in 50 per cent of his regular salary. The church is progressing under the leadership of its brilliant pastor and the following officers: Deacon Board—T. R. Williams, chairman; Jos. W. Marks, chairman of finance; David Smalls, Wm. H.

In this connection it is an interesting fact that he sent home his sister and her husband on January 7. Garvey is a native of Jamaica, B. W. I. Rumors have been in the air for a long time concerning his arrest, and he is said to have twice faluted in his office lately. Urged for a statement, Mr. Garvey said: "My arrest is but the starting point of a great international conflict that will one day show the Negro not the worse off for the result. Enemies of the Negro race and enemies of my movement within the race have been plotting for some time to besmirch my character in order to hold me up to public ridicule and to cause me to lose favor among my people. " "The villains will have to go far to condemn or convict the conscience that is honest and true to itself, to man and to God. Let the combined forces of the world be mobilized on the principle of injustice and 400,000,000 Negroes, under the leadership of Jesus Christ shall put them to flight. "My race has suffered much and for long, and the fight of the Universal Negro Improvement Association is for our liberation everywhere and for feeling of Africa from the grasp of the exploiting tyrant. Cheap, villainous, parasitic members of my race have tried hard to discredit me because the Universal has made an inroad into their schemes of exploiting the people. Several Negro organizations and a goodly number of preachers and politicians are fighting me. They sought and crucified Jesus Christ, yet Christianity succeeded. Let them crucify me and the Universal Negro Improvement Association shall succeed the more. "The fight is on and it will end only when Gabriel blows his horn. "The new Negro, through the Universal Negro Improvement Association, shall teach the wicked a signal lesson. I welcome the fight to damage my character. Watch the result between here and Africa. The Negro shall be free though the Heavens fall and the enemies of human liberty and justice rage. "Among those who are opposing the Universal Negro Improvement Association are the leaders of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and the paper organization known as the African Blood Brotherhood, of which Cyril Briggs editor of the "Crusader." a monthly magazine, is the paramount chief and active working head, and who is on ball for criminal libel against Marcus Garvey." 2,000 colored people will hear Maude Cuney-Hare, great raco pianist and Wm. Richardson, the great haritone, assisted by Savannah's best talent at the Auditorium January 23. A COMPLETE GROCERY STORE JANUARY 19.1922 NEGRO INSTITU TIONS REMEM- BERED IN WILL Large Bequests and Legacies Made From $3,000,000 Estate. New York, Jan. 14.—Many Negroeducational institutions will receive large bequests and regalary legacies from the $3,000,000 estate of Mrs. Calista S. Mayhew, widow of Francis LaBaron Mayhew of South Orange, under her will, filed for probate in Newark yesterday. Mr. Mayhew was formerly president of South Orange Village. Mrs. Mayhew, who died Dec. 10 at the age of ninety-eight, left no relatives, and virtually her entire estate is bequeathed to educational and charitable work. Negro institutions benefiting by the will are: Snow Hill Normal and Industrial School, Snow Illi, Ala., $5,000 and two-sevenths of the residue after payment of some $50,000 in specific bequests; Hampton Normal and Agricultural Institute, Hampton, Va., one-seventh; Tuskegee Institute and Training School for Nurses, Tuskegee, Ala., $5,000 and one-seventh; Atlanta University, Atlanta, a., one-seventh. The Good Will Association of East Fairfield Me., receives two-sevenths. It could not be ascertained last night whether this is a Negro institution. In addition, $1,000 out of $1,500 left to former school superintendent Alfred S. Kinsey of South Orange, is to spend in Negro settlement work in South Orange. The will reveals Mrs. Mayhew as a lover of birds. To William S. Hunt, president of South Orange Village is given) $5,000 for locates on bird life and forestry in South Orange Schools; and $5,000 toward preservation of bird life, besides $6,000 given it to establish a Francis Lellaron scholarship.

In Georgia and Alabama for example, 70 per cent of the colored echool teachers have temporary emer- gency certifidates, representing a schooling of less than cight elementary grdes, For trained teachers the col- ored schools of the South must depend almost wholly upon private institu’ tlons founded and supported by north- om philanthropy, among which our A.M.

NIGGER + (hy Archdeacon Walker) There “is no word more discusting than the word fnigger” and Its asso- clates “darkey” fand “coon;” and they are doubly disgusting when used by our own poople. “The use of the word ‘nigger’ 4s not restricted to low and igrorant colored folk; but many colored ministers, ‘terchers, business men and others who claim to have In- telligence and self-respect continually use thts term in referring to Yheir own race, It is a-most reprehenstve ep- Ithet- and no one ‘who really thinks ansthing of himself or of his people will allow ft to pass his Ups The trouble wih people who do use it and the word “darkey’ Is that they do not think they or their people are any- thing Tut “nieger” and “darkeyss”. These words are words of contempt, contumely,. Tiey denote meanness, worthlessness, reprobatiow, They have reference to intellectual and moral de- pravity. They imply the relegation of our people to a plane below that occu- pled by those who are considered to De capable of progress, persoual intex- rity and adequate religigus discern ment, It fx disgusting to have these terms used by others; to have them used by ourselves is doubly reprehen- sible. — For two scars J attended one of our lading colorcd universities: and tho word ‘nigger’ was commonly used by the students in def{{inz to theme cclves.

TRADITION AND ‘THE PRESS It 4s speedily becoming a, generally accepted fact that If we as a race are fto attain that degree of effidtency and excellence which Is now hoped for, it will be by the increase of racial pride, the gaining of economlc. independence, the gaining of a knowledge of that part’ of our history which is filled with eramples worthy of emulation. It fe n fact that history as we have beeh taught It has seen fit to omit much of the doings of those men among us whose example would be Inspirlng to younger gcuerations, Tis tory as itis being written éven now by others, features our failures and omits largely our deeds which are worth while. 7 Were our condition now as it was formerly we srouldbe forced, though unwilling, to content, ourselves, with handing down by word of mouth the yeorth-while accomplishmeuts of our fellows; and, Insufficient though this JBUtLOJ proved we would be compelled ta pgcent it. 7 Eeut sych dq not the case. The news neconnts of every dally paper in fa- ture years will be used In making up the history of this age. And it 4s worthy of mention that though we of- ten complain of the fact that these par pers are not uniformly falr jn tkeir policies in regard to ws, they don’t represent our court of last resort. We ure fast developing a press of our own which specializes In facts; presents the news of our own dotngs In a @lear yrt calm and dispasslonate way. This press fs vpon which we must depend to a greater extent for making ow records permanent and preserving our traditions. That is its ‘purpose. = And that purpose can be more stead ly followed if the general public be- eins to think more fo terms of this beneflt, *: ° aay Every portion of the world in which members of our group live fe being slowly but surely linked up with every other portion and scanned for news of their worth-while doings. . Such a practice is making grenter covoperation possible; fs Increstsing ra- clal pride: is gnarantering depend- able records; Is helping to form a lit- erature; I¢ rendering easy of trans- miasion that portion of our history which speaks of onr progress.

The large number of doctors present verified Dr. Tyson's statement. Every one enjoyed this splendid address from the president of the Medical Association. The right man in the right place. Col. C. I. Kooper, city health officer, was then introduced and he, too made an inspiring address. He commended the efforts of opening the much needed clinic and stressed its importance as had been cited in the address of Dr. Tyson. He said the city was willing to help us but we must do something ourselves, then we would appreciate it more. Dr. Kooper made it very plain that we do and the city help us, and not the city do and we help the city. All heartily agreed to this idea. Dr. Kooper ato explained plans for a city hospital with equal accommodations for white and colored and the necessity of floating a bond to get funds to build it. It was agreed that we use our influence and vote for same when the time comes.

C., Jan. 17th (Associated Negro Press)—William Pickens, a contributing editor of, the Associated Negro Press declares. "Those who expect little of the Disarmament, Conference, seem about to be justified,—and those who hoped for much, about to be disappointed. In the first place, the gathering got afraid to allow itself even to be called "disarmament," and called itself "limitation of arms."—or better, and more frontal still "the arms parley." That is what it is: an arms conference—really trying to make a better and more economical arrangement of its arms, but by no means trying to get rid of them. It is as if things of rival ranges had gotten so weighted, down trying to carry more guns and ammunition than their foes and had suddenly found the burden imbearable and got together to consider how they could effect a "gentlemen's agreement" or some other such contract, to burden themselves less—to carry fewer guns, just enough to do the necessary killing with, for example. Then they could agree on a proportionate reduction, which would leave them in status quo ante. And they could effect this agreement as to heavy guns, which wees o burgensome to them all—but there was strong objection to any limitation on the use of their fine-new types of very light guns which were so handy in ambushing and bush-wracking (submarines and warplanes). "The civilizing" of the crime all looks toward the relief of the gangsters and not to the protection and security of the public. "War cannot be civilized. Murder cannot be reformed. War is murder, when one innocent man is made to kill any innocent stranger to him, or even his own friend, if that friend happens to disagree with some scheme of things about which both of them know little. "Who can make a nation, when it is fighting for its life, use submarines and air bombs respectfully? The only reason why the Germans beat the English to the use of Zeppelins and poison gas, is that they had the Zeppelins and hurried, the gas first. No weapons is too terrible in a death struggle, if the weapon be in reach. Negro Lad Now Real Movie Hero With Real Salary Frederick Ernest Merrison, styled the "Black Dinty" and professionally known as "Sunshine Sammy," and who for the past six years has brought tears of laughter to millions of movie fans the world over, has at last been given the credit long denied him, and promoted to a full-fledged star. Ernest has just completed his first starring vehicle, "The Pickaninny" produced by the Hal Roach Comedy Company of Culver City, and released through the Pathe releasing agendas. Born in 1913 near Canal and Carondelet streets, New Orleans, La. Ernest was brought to Los Angeles by his father and mother Joseph and Louisa Morrison, and in 1915 he was employed to assist in the work of making Baby Marle Osborne an idol with the juvenile movie fans. Ernest made a hit from the start, and ever long, was co-starring in the two and five early Baby Marle Osborne comedies, "Old Mahal's Baby," "Winning Grathna," "Voice of Dostiny," "Saw Just Dolly," "Little Duslin's Lute." A year or so later he was placed under contract by Hal Roach and intered into, steady production of the Roach comedies costarring with Harold Lloyd, in such hits as "Haunted Spooks," "Get Out and Get under," etc. and with Harry ("Snub") Pollard in regular weekly releases. So universal has become the popularity of Ernest, that Marshall Neilam recently borrowed him from the Roach firm, to costar with the cast of famous juvenile actors in the Booth Tarkington "Penrod" just completed. Last week the two former cinema celebrities, Jane Katherine Lee, now playing vaudeville, included Ernest among the their juvenile guests at a theatre party at the Orpheum theatre. Among those invited were Jackie Coozan, Wesley Barry, Jack Holt, Jr., Wallie Bold, Jr., and many other famous kiddies of the screen. Ernest's salary has been advanced from time to time until now reaches a weekly sum of three figures. Four hours per day Ernest spends with a private tutor learning the rudiments of the "three R's" and spends from four to six hours each day at the Roach Studios turning out a picture a week. Ernest's father and his Year-old sister. Florence, assist him occasionally in the pictures. Florence having worked with him in "Tenrod." Success has only spurred Ernest to higher ambitions and he works hard each day, acting, studying and saving his money and recently purchased a block Message To Parent Teachers' Association Once more we greet a new year, once more we, after upon a new year, not knowing what will meet us therein.

No intelligent Mason knows all he wants to know, and, too, he is anxious to read the news of what is going on in Masonry all over the world. GENUINE MASONRY Genuine Masonry is loving, peaceable, unobtrusive; its true spirit pure as the dew of heaven, free and refreshing as its several brozers; a divine mantle for the clear-sighted to gather, every one according to his own eating—some more and some less—giving freely as we freely receive, without forcing on any what, in its primitive purity, best recommends itself.—S. R. Bullein. ```markdown ``` YOU DON'T NEW YOUR OLD ONE There is a vast deal more in Masonry than more signs, grips, and words, and the ability to recite the ecoteric and monitorial work—E. M. Showalter. The only way to regenerate the world is to do the duty which lies nearest to us, and not to hunt after grand farfetched ones for ourselves—Kingsley. There are many who can recite our ritual from Alpha to Omega without the omission of a word or a syllable unconscious of the fact that behind the play lie concealed thoughts and meanings which invite our investigation and will repay us for our research. The demand of the hour is not for those who recite the ritual, but for men who know what the ritual means, and who are willing to live its teachings in their daily lives and conduct.—Masonle Sun. --- Our first President was a Mason. The oath of office administered to the first President was by a Mason. That oath of office was taken on the pages of a Masonic Lodge Bible. The Federal District of Columbia was laid out by Masons. The corner stone of the first National Capitol was laid by Masons with Masonic ritual. The first literary document dedicated to a President of the United States was a Masonic discourse. Linked to a President of the United States was laid in rest by Masons.—Masonic Chronicle. --- CONSIDER THE LODGE FIRST In every case the interest of the lodge must be considered before the interest of the individual, and it would seem surely not impossible where a man is unknown for steps to be taken that his character and worthiness may be determined by members of the lodge to which he desires to apply, so that they can honestly and conscientiously consider his application. To do otherwise would be to tend towards irregularity, which is bound eventually to result in injury to the lodge. In every case applicants must adjust themselves to the provisions of Masonry, and Masonry should no let barriers simply to gain members, and the applicants themselves will have far greater respect for the institution if its governing principles are strictly adhered to.

McIver, who departed this life Jan. 16, 1918 We loved him, yes, we loved him, but Jesus loved him best, and He Las gently called him, to younger shining shore. The golden gates were opened, a gentle voice a sald come, and with farewell unspoken, he calmly entered home. Mrs. M. J. McIver and children MILLS—In sad but loving remembrance of our dear son and father, Fred Mills, who departed this life three years ago today, Jan. 17, 1919 Far beyond this world of changes Far beyond this world of care We will find our missing loved one In our Father's mansion fair Just asleep his soul immortal Dwelling now beyond earth's woof; Free from pain and care and sorrow, Sweet and undisturbed repose Peaceful thy rest dear love one, It is sweet to breathe thy name, In life we love you dearly, In death we do the same. Mother, Mrs. Rosa McClendon Daughter, Mrs. IL D. Foster DUDLEY—In sad but in loving and sweet remembrance of my darling husband, Frank Dudley, who departed this life July 15th, 1921. Six months ago today the cold hand of idle chained you for his own. Why should we weep for those who die? They fall, their dust return to dust their souls shall live eternally within the mansion of the just. They die to live, they sink to rise. They leave this wicked mortal shore, but Brighter sun and lush skies shall smile on their for evermore. Why should we sorrow for the dead. Our life on earth is bit a span; they tread the path that all must tread; They die the common death of man. The noblest songster of the gale, must cease when winter's frown appear. The restless use is wan and pale. When autumn tints the changing year. The faltest flower on earth must fade. The smallest hopes on earth must die. Why should we mourn that man was made. To dwell on earth but dwell in high. The soul, the eternal soul reigns. In words devoid of pain and strife. Then why should mortal man complain. Of death which leads to happier life? His and devoted wife Mary R. Dudley. SMITH—Sacred to the memory of my husband, P. L. Smith, who departed this life January 31, 1921. "In having kindness Jesus came My dearest husband to reclaim And although his death has caused me grief To him this call, has meant relief "You suffered long, yet never complained For this you know would heaven gain And now you're safe with all the blest In perfect peace may your soul rest. "Yes, no shall meet, when all is blest Where there remains eternal rest. Free from all cares all woes and strife To live with Jesus the eternal life" WASHINGTON—In sad and loving remembrance of a devoted daughter and in loving sister, Daisy B Washington, who departed this life Jan. 17, 1920. Oh! the time it seems so long and I find myself still looking and watching for you to come home. Daisy, we miss your song of gladness that your silent voice hath sung, night dew shall weep in sadness for one who died so young. You are only sleeping.

RESOLUTION ON LIFE OF MR S. S. SINGFIELD Whereas, it has pleased Almighty God in His wise providence to remove from our midst Mr. S. S. Singfield and Whereas, his long years of service with the Pilgrim Health and Life Insurance Company have been years of undamaged service, in that he gave the best of his life and talent to the building and perpetuation of this great company. Beginning his career with the company some eighteen years ago at Augusta, Ga., from there he was sent to Columbus, Ga., as the manager of the Columbus district. In the year 1909 he resigned as manager of that district and connected himself with the Savannah District, and from the time that he connected himself with the Savannah district until about one year before his death, when that dreadful disease that proved fatal to him prayed upon his body, he was induced, the most progressive agent on the Savannah district, and enjoyed the distinction of Laving collected more money than any other agent in the state. His association was always pleasant, his advice wholesome and his information reliable. Born as he was in the reconstruction, period soon after the dark days of slavery, he had not enforced the best educational advantages, but, notwithstanding that fact, he possessed all of those qualities of heart, and soul that go to make up great men and went out into the world, made his mark; took his place in the galaxy among other great men and proved to the world that he possessed a fund of wit, a flow of words and a greatness of heart that made him, in accordance with the opportunities and advantages that he had, as brilliant as Clay, as logical as Calhoun, as industrious as Denton and as profound as Webster. CLARENCE B. MILLER FORMER CONGRESSMAN DEAD St. Paul, Minn., Jan 17th (Associated Negro Press)—Clarence B. Miller of Duluth, Minn., Secretary of the Republican national committee and former congressman died here at a hospital last Tuesday. He was operated on for appendicitis, January 2nd, and his condition became critical due to heart trouble. Mr. Miller was born in Goodhue County, Minnesota in 1823 and resigned coungy, and the masterly address of Henry Lincoln Johnson, on request of the Associated Negro Press, Mr. Miller prepared an extended statement setting forth the action from the committee viewpoint. Later Mr. Miller heads the organization forces going into Atlanta, Ga., to inaugurate the experiment of making that state "tilly white." B. J. Davis, of The Atlanta Independent, and others, have made a continued fight against this action. His toils nd labors for good and righteous causes and for every agency that is at work among us trying to lift us up to a higher standard of righteousness will never be forgotten, for, he labored incessantly with a spirit not to be subdued, for the persecution of every good and righteous cause. Realizing that he lived in an age of the world in which service was required, this was a life of service. The kindly acts, the charitable deeds and the mindfulness of faithful service that were characteristic of him will ever stand out as gifts to humanity and as monuments to his memory. A noted orator on one occasion, speaking of Antonol Macco the great Cuban general who fought in the Spanish American war and gave his life for his people, said: "Macco we know that thy spirit still lives and could thy spirit today be found. It would be found hovering over the people for whom you gave your noble life". In the language of that noted orator, we say: "Singfield: we know that thy spirit still lives and could thy spirit today be found. It would be found hovering over this company for whom you gave your noble life." He did not forget the all important fact which is the necessary requisite for the full consummation of a well spent life; he made favor with the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, allied himself with the Christian army and hired a consistent Christian life for thirty-nine years. He died in the full triumph of faith with the assurance of "life, more abundantly"—eternal life after death. Whereas, that in the closing of the career of this noble man, the wife loses a true and faithful husband—the children a loving and affectionate father, the church a loyal consistent Christian and the Pilgrim Health and Life Insurance company one of its strongest and most ardent perpatutors, and Whereas, we feel so keenly, with the bereaved the great loss sustained in bleedism therefore, be it Resolved; that we bow in humble submission to Almighty God and say "Thy will be done." "Resolved further; that a copy of these resolutions be filed in the archives of the Pilgrim Health and Life Insurance Company, a copy sent the bereaved and a copy reserved for publication. Respectfully, Savannah district, Pilgrim Health and Life Insurance Company. 2,000 colored people will hear Maude Cuney-Hare, great race pianist and Wm.
