The People'sPaper The Trade Maker GR. UNITED ORDER 8DD FELLOWS 19TH BIENNIAL SESSION Movable Committee Meeting At New York City This Week. Recommends Journal Be Abolished. Wilmington, Del. Selected For 1920. Special to The Argus. New York City (Manhattan Casino) Sept. 9, 1918-The 19th Biennial session of the Movable Committee of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows in America met here today with Perry W. Howard of Miss., presiding and W. T. Francis and Chas. E. Mitchell of St. Paul, Miss., and Charleston, W. Va. respectively as secretaries. After short but impressive ceremonies of welcome and response the delegates entered diligently upon the dispatch of the regular business. The session was marked by the lack of any last energy and thoroughly demonstrated the determination of the delegates to carefully care for the important work which conditions demanded. There were 282 delegates present representing the lodges in the following States: W. Va.; Delaware, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, South Carolina, Minnesota, Mississippi, New York, Tennessee, New Jersey and Georgia. There was much interesting discussion on the following legislation that came before the meeting; The incorporation of the G. U. O. F. $^r$ in the District of Columbia under the laws of Congress. A heated discussion on the discontinuance of the Old Fellows Journal was finally referred to the S. C. of M, with the recommendation that the same be abolished. A patriotic resolution depicting the wonderful history of the Black Soldiers and "plodging our last drop of blood and our last penny to our Country" including also the special direction to the Sub-Committee of Management "to make sale of the $8,000 of certificates of indebtedness owned by the Order and to add a sufficient amount to net a sum of $15,000 and invest the same in The Fourth Liberty Loan Bond." The invitation of the city of Wilmington, Delio won over Chicago as the next place of meeting in 1920. Atlantic City was also mentioned. After the election of officers the Committee on Credentials reported the entire delegation from the State of Georgia as regular and designated representatives and a beautiful demonstration by the B. M. C., was then witnessed which included a call for a speech by the Hon. Benj. I. Davis who was escorted to the platform by a special committee amid a tremendous applause and a wonderful enthusiastic ovation. He responded in the most excellent speech ever delivered before any session of the B. M. C., which was interrupted continually by evidence of the great esteem which the entire body entertained for him. The B. M. C. refused to accept any social entertainment during the state of War even though New York and her famous hospitality was manifested in a strong desire to furnish a room. The election resulted as follows: Grand Master, John S. Noel, Charleston, W. Va.; Deputy Grand Master, W. T. Francis, St. Paul, Miss.; Grand Secretary, Rob. J. Nelson, Harrisburg Penn.; Grand Treasurer, Charles Bourne, Wilmington, Del.; Grand Directors: W. T. Andrews, South Carolina, J. G. Robinson, Knoxville, Tenn.; W. P. Kemp, Detroit, Michigan; Wm. Cornelius, New York, N. Y.; J. Anthony Jossey, Madison, Wis.; Auditors, Chas E. Mitchell, Institute W. R.; E. Warner, New York, N. Y.; and Isaac H. Nutter, Atlantic City, N. J. Grand Attorney, Percy W. Howard, Jackson, Miss.; Delegate to England, W. L. Houston, Washington B. C Before leaving for his home the Grand Master, Joha E. Noel made the following statement to your representatives: "We will enter at once upon a vigorous and concerted effort to recruit our membership, replenish our treasury, harmonize our factions and place the G. U. O. O. F., again upon the high pinnacle it formerly occupied." The Grand Household elected the following officers: M. W. G. S., Mammie Hailey; R. W. G. S., Sigenia Heinderson; G. W. R., Ola M. Walkers; G. W. T., G. D. Ida Dawn, Annie Cragan. Grand Usher, Lena Evans; Grand-Chambrain, Mary B. English; Grand Shepherd, Lizzie Rucker and Grand Prelate, Annia Freeman. COLORED MUSICIANS SHOW THEIR PATRIOTISM A band of 22 Colored Musicians, members of the A. F. M, showed their patriotism by 'playing on' the streets during the draft registration Thursday. This was a volunteer effort to stimulate registration. It had been requested by the Chamber of Commerce that all bands offered their service, but so far as can be learned the Colored men were the only ones to respond. The newspapers, Colored and white, and the Chamber of Commerce were serenaded by the band. The Hawaiian Boys Social Club will give a Grand entertainment Wednesday, September 18th at the Petahi Hall, 3127 Pine St. from 8 p.m. to 1 a.m. Everybody is invited as this may be your last chance with us. Music by Grant's Select Orchestra. Admission 25 cents. The St. Louis Argus HON. L. G. DYER, THE PEOPLE'S FRIEND M. B. There are many reasons why the Negroes of St. Louis should be glad of the opportunity to register on next Thursday, September 19. The chief reason is, it will enable you to vote for our friend, the people's friend, Hon. L. C. Dyer, that he may go back to Congress and stand before that great law-making body and plead the cause of twelve million black people in this country. Mr. Dyer is the most popular statesman, with the Colored people; in this country. If the Negro had the vote he would be the next president of the United States. St. Louisans are honored by having the privilege of electing such a man as a member of Congress. If our brothers of the South had this opportunity, they would do all in their power to exercise their rights. You can render the entire race a most valuable service by seeing to it that every man, whose name is not on the registration books, registers next Thursday, September 19. AMER. WOODMEN LOSE LAW SUIT J. E. Mitchell Wins Judgment Against the Order in Justice Courts—Big Victory for the People—Prominent Citizens Quit Local Organizaion On Sept. 3, Justice Pfieffle rendered a decision in favor of Hon. J. E. Mitchell, who sued the Supreme Camp, of the American Woodmen of Denver Colo. Mr. Mitchell brought suit to test a ruling made by James T. Bush, clerk of local Camp No. 10, who ruled that Mr. Mitchell was not entitled to recover benefit from the order, because dues were not paid on or before the 1st day of each month. It was brought out at the trial that the policies and by-laws of the order have a technical clause which reads, that unless a member pays in advance he is out. This, of course, is at the discretion of Mr. Bush. The clause is supposed to catch the poor and unsuspecting members of the order who are not able to sue and defend their rights. It was also shown that such by-laws have no resemblance of fraternal orders; but are worst than the most technical accident insurance. Losing Confidence Many persons who first joined the order in St. Louis have quit because they have found that it was not what they thought it to be. Mr. T. L. Gentry refused to accept reelection as Commander of the local camp. Supreme Commander, C. M. White, in boasting about the money which really belongs to the members, said, it was a defense fund to fight the members in the courts. A constable will be put in charge of the camps in St. Louis to collect the judgment against the order, secured by Mr. Mitchell. If it is not promptly paid. Attorney Crittenden Clark 1403 Market St., represented Mr. Mitchell in the Justice Court, and made a strong plea for the rights of the people, declaring that the courts must protect the poor and unsuspecting against those who would take advantage of them. Atty. Dan Bowles represented the defense. Published In The Interest Of Colored People ST.

The National Baptist Convention closed at the Coliseum Monday night and all but a few of the delegates and visitors have left the city. The local committee has given out the statement that nearly 2,000 more persons were in attendance this year than at any previous meeting. Harmony prevailed throughout the sessions. There was very little social entertaining. Nothing but strictly business seemed to be the rule—a condition probably influenced by the seriousness of war times. The largest crowd that attended the convention was on Friday night when Rosese Coakling Simmons spoke. On Sunday, in addition to the Coliseum services, several prominent ministers preached in the Vatican churches throughout the city and Rev. C. J. Walker spoke in a large tent. The Publishing Department of the church reported the amount of business done for the year at $115,000; Foreign Mission Board, $20,000; Home Mission Board, $20,000; different auxiliaries from $5,000 to $10,000. The collections taken up during the convention amounted to $15,000. The 1919 convention will be held at Newark, N. J. THE WOMEN'S AUXILIARY The Women's Auxiliary of the National Baptist Convention convened at the First Baptist Church, Sept. 4, 1918. The sessions opened Wednesday morning with devotional services led by the Missouri delegates, after which Mrs. Eva G. Bolden, the clerk of the First Baptist Church, delivered the welcome address, which made every member of the convention perfectly at home. The services were continued with much pleasure. There were special programs every afternoon and evening of musical numbers and talented people from all over the world. Sunday at the morning session, the auditorium of the First Baptist was jammed. There was hardly standing room. Rev. W. S. Ellington, the pastor of the First Baptist Church, East Nashville, Teen, and the only Negro member of the International Baptist Sunday School Lesson Committee, preached at night. Rev. Chas, Black well of, Philadelphia, Po, delivered a very interesting sermon. All of First Baptist was at their best, first the ushers was commended, on how splendid they seated the public, next the choir for their beautiful music, last but not least, the wonderful dining room service. It was really appetizing to enter the dining room, and see the cafe arrangements of tables, waiters and cashiers. All the women reported a pleasant visit, saving our hospitality isn't be beat. Monday evening Dr. Sutton Griggs, a well known minister of the public, delivered a very instructive sermon subject. "Science of the Human Progress." Sunday morning and evening there will be interesting sermons as usual. The public is cordially invited. JUDGE SPENCER WILL SPEAK FOR Y. M. C. A. SUNDAY Judge Seldon P.

(Continued On Page 4 ) (Special to The St. Louis Argus) Co. "M," 370 Inf., A. E. F., France On August 5, the Over Sea Mission Church revival meeting conducted by Rev. Bolden P. Smith of Co. "M" and his aide camp, Revs. Rossin and Campbell, ended with the baptizing of five comrades: William Bell Theodore Edwards, Bennie Webb, Joe Williams and Nathan Enix. Those who reinstalled in the service for God were Sergt. George McCracken and Private George Lawrence. We must take on our hats to these prophets of God for the great work they have rendered for the Master and his cause. In a time and place like this, the baptism made every man think far and who did have iron hearts and steel minds. The converts went down to be immersed in their kakabal and in columns of twosinging "What a fellowship." This caused every man to look, for they were amazed to see such as this, in a place like this, for they knew that it took men with will power, courage, faith, patience and a supreme confidence. I have seen on occasions as this, bystanders who make fun, but not so in this case; not a man dared to raise his anger. Sergt. Horace Taylor and Corporal Daniel W. Euell were deacons, Sergt. George McCracken aided, the pastor in baptizing the new converts. We took our first communion "somewhere in France." Rev. Smith preached a wonderful sermon and every man's mind was thrown back across the sea for a few moments to his home church. It is impossible for one to describe this meeting, words cannot be found. The St. Louis boys who were active members of the King's Bible Class of Central Baptist Church Sunday school are over here manifesting the same determination for the cause of Christ. We met last Sunday morning with the writer of this message as president and Sergt Chas. S. Stone as our teacher. These present were: Corporal Roy Wilson, Corporal Robert W. Huck! Corporals George W. Ellis, Leroy Goss, Private Charlie Williams, Private, 1st Class, Frank O. Brown, Lesson subject, 7th chapter of Paul's letter to the Romans. May God bless you, from the commander down to the Jeasil in faith. Corp. Don't Webster Esell. LANE TABERNACLE TEN DAY-REVIVAL JOHN H. HARRIS "The pastor and members of Lane Tabernacle C. M. E.'

St. Louis Has Already Sent 3,661 To Camps Funston and Dodge More than a million Coorsed men between the ages of 18 and 46 are heveld to have registered for the draft Thursday throughout the country. St Louis will probably contribute 100 of that number. It is the plan of the War Department to immediately classify the men 19 20 years old and those 32 36 inclusive, so that class 1 men can begin going to camps in October. It was announced Thursday that 1601 Negroes had been inducted into military service through the selective draft in St. Louis from September 1, 1917, to August 30, 1918. It is expected that all class one men remaining from the June 5 and August 24, 1918 registration, will be sent away before August 1. There are more than 500 Colored men here in this class. An announcement has also been made that the 192nd Division, Colored, which trained at Camp Funston last fall and winter, is now holding down a sector on the firing line in France and is probably in the big offensive just started by the Americans under General Pershing.

Now in the Trenches In France, Says Black Rodents Are Large As Rabbits. Colored Men In First Line Trenches, Dodging Shrapnel and Wearing Gas Masks Continuously. William Henry Dobbys, former employee of the Argus, who is now with the 50th Infantry, now in the front line trenches in France, writes an in-festing letter about his experiences in active service. Dobbys says all are being well fed and when they are not fighting they amuse themselves playing baseball, cards and checkers. He says it does not get dark until 9 o'clock. Harry Douglas, together St. Louis boys, has been made a sergeant. All St. Louis boys, as for as he can learn, are O.K. and sound regards to the folks back home. Fighting Bravely and Successfully Dobbys writes, "We are fighting bravely and successfully with our allies and driving the enemy back. Last June I was on guard in a trench with my gun when a Booby started sending the shells on top of our first line trench. I had to stay at my post, of course, but was lucky enough to dodge shrapnel by lying that on the ground. No one was injured." Afraid of Trench Rats "I am more afraid of trench rats than I am of the Germans. They are as large as a rabbit and black. I killed two with my bayonet. It is some little. We must wear gas masks at all times and keep them us when we are sleeping. This is a beautiful country and the French people and soldiers are made to us." TWENTY ONE YEAR OLD ARGUS BOY WRITES IN GOOD SPIRIT FROM CAMP Private Edward S. Tibbs, 4001-Finney Ave., formerly an Argus collector and news boy, writes a cheerful letter from Camp Dodge. Tibbs is one of a few St. Louis boys, in the 25-year old class of 1918, who has been called to camp. After explaining camp routine, Tibbs says he is glad to be a soldier, that all of the St. Louis boys have gone over to France except the last ones drifted. "Give my regrets to the Argus staff and tell them I am going over to France to take up the task of helping to get the Kaiser. If I gall on the battlefield, there will be black boys over there to bring the bacon home, as all the boys are anxious to 'go over the top,' and I am to the bunch. I am an old man now. I expect to be in France in two weeks. I missurssey I cannot work with you but I am doing a better job by helping Luke Sam, in the great battle which the Negro boys of the United States are going to wiff next spring.

Martin, secretary. South Kinnon Park A cordial welcome was extended all and was responded to by a record breaking crowd all day. Each auxiliary is progressing, which marks this big church is the coming church of the rural district. Many visitors were present Sunday. Pastor Harrold preached a forceful sermon at 11 o'clock. Rev J. L. Marlin of Greenville. Miss., preached Sunday night. Pastor Harrold preached in Baden last Sunday at Corinthian Baptist Church. The civic league meets at the church Monday night. Rev A. P. Harrold, pastor: Sister Mary Bowen, secretary. ST. PAUL A. M. E. NOTES Dr. Pollard from Alabama filled the pulpit Sunday morning to the delight of all. Our beloved pastor, Dr. Johnson, had previously spoken of this eminent divine and we knew from his past records that we would not be jessapointed. The audience sat spellbound as Dr. Pollard unfolded the truth which made all present rejoice. Sunday night at seven thirty, Dr. G. M. Jackson of Lawrence, Kansas, brought the message. Though somewhat tired and worn with the ardent distress during the week of the convention his sermon was interesting. St. Paul was well taken care of all day by eminent preachers of the National Baptist convention. Dr. Johnson is leaving no stones unturned in collecting his conference claims. The members are rallying to him as they and last year. Dr. Johnson has the credit of collecting more claims, in his quiet way, than any pastor in the Missouri conference. He simply states his plans, advises his others and the members fall in line, Sunday morning, he will bring a burning message well seasoned and those who miss the sermon will miss a religious treat. A special invitation to strangers. Good services were enjoyed all day at: Ms. Olive Baptist Church No. 2, Scripture was read by the pastor from Rev. 17.1.14 Sermon by Rev. Harris of Greenville, Miss., at 11 a.m. at 2:30 p.m., the Royal Council No. 1, Sons and Daughters of Beersheba, hold their annual sermon with Miss E. Lane, presiding.

BETWEEN TWO FIRES Men of the white race, when addressing Negro audiences, since the world's conflict has become a big question, usually find themselves between two fires. The customary phrases, describing what this war means to the people of this nation, seem to find no application to the Colored man. So the speakers generally take up most of their time in apologizing for the wrongs perpetrated upon the Colored people of this country by the whites, and in praising the loyalty of the Negro race. This, of course, is very embarrassing to speaker and hearers alike. Mur of the white rack, we since the world's conflict has been themselves between two fires, what this war means to the people application to the colored man up most of their time in apology upon the Colored people of the praising the loyalty of the Negro embarrassing to speaker and her.

No man, who is a leader of the Negro is satisfied with anyth forced to accept less on account must let the world know that we of the white race, when addressing Negroes, world’s conflict has become a big question, between two fires. The customary phrase war means to the people of this nation, seen to the colored man. So the speakers get of their time in apologizing for the wrongs colored people of this country by the whore loyalty of the Negro race. This, of course to speaker and hearers alike.

We are quite in sympathy with the members of our race who are placed in such embarrassing positions when called upon to speak to their own people. The leaders of the race who are patriotic, loyal, and anxious to do all in their power to help in this great right for Democracy, by conversations, lectures or writings, must either apologize for the wrongs done to their brothers or plead ignorance of the existing conditions. In either event, they are placed in a bad position. We want Uncle Sam to help us do more for our race by removing the many handicaps that we are compelled to work under. Unless we have misinterpreted the word "Democracy," it means equal rights, equal duties, and equal responsibilities for all citizens. No man, who is a leader of the race, would dare say that the Negro is satisfied with anything less; even though we may be forced to accept less on account of the accident of our birth, we must let the world know that we are not satisfied.

It deals with the Home Service section and states that the Red Cross has raised more than 1,000,000 persons. Reports on other activities will be made shortly. Other striking statements in the report follow: More than 200,000 families of American men in service have been relieved of money troubles, legal difficulties and family worries by the Red Cross. Although money has proved the least valuable contribution of flame Service, expenditures have amounted to $1,500,000 for the first six months of the present year and probably will exceed $4,000,000 for the second half. By January 1, 1918, the Red Cross will have spent a total of $4,000,000 in Home Service and will be carrying a burden of nearly $1,000,000 a month. V. W. C. A.

HONEST ADVERTISING PAYS I want to say that the Steger Line of Pianos have been sold to over 250 people of this city, by me, and eighty-five per cent of my business is in high class players, and mostly on good terms. I owe the steadily increasing business to progressive and educational advertising. Do you really believe that a dealer can continually sell real, and I mean real $750.00 Player Pianos for $450.00 and continue in business! A Player Piano that sells for $750.00 should cost the dealer considerably more than $400.00 or it is not a $750.00 Player Piano. Our line of Player Pianos are sold to, to everybody, and they are easy to play. I can, and I am giving better terms, than any other dealer in the city. If you side track me, you pay the penalty.

Lucky has recently returned from the sessions of the Elk Convention that was held in Baltimore He also served Washington Philadelphia and New York. He who is worldly, covetous or sensual must change before he can be a good Mason. Mrs. Augustine Fields, widow of the eminent Mason, late Sir Milton F. Fields, died at her residence, 2757 La Salle Street, last Tuesday morning. The deceased was a member of the Her oines or Jericho and Order of Eastern Star. Her funeral was held at All Saints Episcopal Church this morning at 10 o'clock. Harrison S. McKoin directed the funeral and had charge of the body. We can only sincerely deeply and most affectionately sympathize with the immediate relatives of the Fields family, in their affectionate bereavement. An useless life is short, if it last: century; but that of Alexander was long as the life of the oak, though he died at thirty-five. We may do much in a few years, and we may do nothing in a lifetime. If we but eat and drink and sleep, let everything go on around us as please; or if we live hard to gain peace or wear titles, we might as well not have lived at all. Mr. Chas P.

THEATRES BOOKER WASHINGTON - THEATRE VAUDEVILLE BILL IS BEST The show at the Booker Washington Theatre this week compares favorably with those banner attractions we used to see in the hawley of vaudeville, before the war and the draft began depleting the profession. This week's bill is good, better than has been offered for a long long time. There is but one fault to help, too much low slang. Jules McGarr and "Baby," who was formerly Miss Bonbow, open the show with a lively skit of singing and dancing. Their jokes are old but ingeniously reapplied. The act takes well. Pegglesay and Simpson, "The Trump and the Clown," have an aerobatic act that displays several difficult feats mixed with running comedy. Their main asset is barrel jumping which they do with much cleverness. The entire act is good and wins big applause. The Taylor Sisters, Jeannette and Helen, have a singing act that takes the house by storm. Being and singing their miscellaneous numbers are melodious and tall of sweet harmony. Jeannette applauds in town's attitude. Among their naughty acts is "I Hate To Love You," "I Love but The St. Louis Blues," "Hello Calm Give Me My Man's land," and "Write a Letter Home To Mother." The girls are graceful and their song works is per The Arrants are making their usual big hit with songs, comedy, burlesque and 'Chicago' Arrant's side train bone. His 'Blues Reserval' gets the crowd. Mrs. Arrant is a lively assistant in their spicy comedy mixup and in singing. The act is a good climax to the big feature ball which is drawing crowd into houses nightly. NEXT WEEK On next week's ball, the Booker Washington Theater will have the Rag time Trio, consisting of Andrew Trible, Daisy Martin and Sam Grays Allen and Stokes, singers, dancers and musicians. Willie Tee Sweet, the well-known comedian, the line up is a good one and should offer a show equal to this week's excellent attraction.
